"Then, is our production confirmed?"

"Hmm, Halo Media contacted me to meet and prepare for the shoot."

To commemorate Yoo Yeon Seo's discharge from the hospital, CEO Han decided to entrust him with the production of one of the scripts he chose.

In fact, there was no reason not to do it, as Yoo Yeon Seo or the Jusung Group supporting him would cover the production costs.

"Ah... It's great that our long-awaited project is finally starting production, but why does Yoo Yeon Seo have to be the lead?"

"Well, we can shoot the film because of Yoo Yeon Seo. We can't ruin the film like this..."

"Well, that's true."

Anyway, debuting was a priority. They paused for a moment from their joyful celebration and sat down to consider the list of actors they had in mind. The production company did not put much emphasis on the script Yoo Yeon Seo chose, and as long as the lead role was secured, the writer and director did not care about the rest.

Except for the lead's on-set tantrums and poor acting, everything else was a good environment.

"Who would be good? Jin Soo Ho?"

"No, he won't do. He's of a higher calibre than Yoo Yeon Seo."Neew updates at novel/bin(.)com

Rumour has it that Yoo Yeon Seo doesn't want to work with actors who are more popular than him in the same project. In other words, he seems to have a strong desire to be in charge on set.

Naturally, excluding top stars, only actors of similar calibre or rookies were left.

"What about using an idol? Who was that one again?"

The now-nominated director was trying to think of the person's name.

"Right, him. I saw a web drama he starred in before, and he acted well."

The director, who had no interest in idols, especially male idols, selected someone without much thought. It was a member of the boy group One Seven.

"Let's make sure there are no unfortunate incidents like before in the future."

"Well, that's obvious... it's a job, so it's natural. But I still have a sense of responsibility."

"On that day when you left the young master on the street, you still had a contractual relationship."

[TN: not too sure how to phrase it – it's trying to express a ‘sense of resignation or frustration towards an employer who is too powerful or seemingly untouchable'.]

Yoo Yeon Seo shook the contract that Lee Tae Gyeom signed. Lee Tae Gyeom groaned inwardly, blaming his impulsive personality.

"But why did you call me? I came because I need the money, but what's your reason?"

"Well..."

Yoo Yeon Seo thought hard. ‘What would his true self say?'

‘Oh, right. I have always wanted to say something like this.'

Yoo Yeon Seo giggled, making both Lee Tae Gyeom and Manager Park flinch.

"You're the first one to act like a jerk to me."

"What?"

"Take responsibility."

"What?!"

‘What is he saying?!' Lee Tae Gyeom stood up abruptly, as goosebumps sprouted on his arms. It was no wonder why he had a bad feeling about this.

"How dare you abandon me on the street?! You better treat me well from now on."

"Wait, wait a minute! Hey! Yoo Yeon Seo!"

Yoo Yeon Seo left the conference room after saying those words. Lee Tae Gyeom remained and was left in the room, tearing his hair out in frustration. Darn it, he fell for it!

"So, how did you coax him?"

Yoo Yeon Seo hummed a tune happily as he headed towards his car. He subtly asked Lim Seung Hyun, who followed behind him silently.

[Just tell him not to come anymore because a complaint was filed against him.]

[But, is that okay?]

[Don't worry, we did the same thing with other companies and there were no problems. We'll even pay you more money.]

Lim Seung Hyun just smiled.

"It's a secret."
