Chapter 88

Fan signing event?

[Mask] was released and the jet lag was adjusted, so I was going to take it easy today.

But suddenly John Carter suggested a strange job.

He asked me to sign for the spectators.

Yes, I'm sorry to tell you all of a sudden.

According to the explanation, the visitors made a request to the Whitney Museum of Art.

The original agreement was to gather visitors and hold public interview, but why don't we change the contents of the event for fans who want a closer experience?

What exactly do I need to do?

It's a greeting and signing event with the fans. It will be a good experience for Mr. Ko because there are few opportunities to say hello in person to the fans."

As John Carter said, it will be a good experience because there are not many opportunities to greet them directly.

What I'm curious about is why I have to sign.

But why's the signature?

It's like a commemoration of the meeting.

Do I have to just write my name?

I wondered if my sign would be useful for them. I can understand if it's a painting.

Yes. Oh, it's good to write down simple phrases as a fan service.

Uncle Bang showed the signatures of other famous personalities.

I saw a lot of clichs such as

Be happy with someone.

It bothers me that I only have to do this much for those who came to see my painting, but I don't think it's bad to thank them.

When I turned my head, grandpa nodded his head.

I'll give it a try.

John Carter was delighted by my words.

Is the schedule for the day after tomorrow okay?

Yes, it's okay, right Uncle Bang?

Yes its fine, Mr. Carter, is the time the same as before?

Originally, the scheduled time for the public interview was one hour.

"That's right. However, since the number that can be invited for a one-hour program is small, I would like to ask for a little more.

Uncle Bang frowned and turned his head towards me.

Hun, do you think 90 minutes will be okay?

Yes, Uncle.

I'm not doing it all day, so I can gladly give 90 minutes to those who like my paintings.

Let's make it 90 minutes.

Thank you. Tuesday from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. By the way, Henry Marceau has also accepted the signing event. You two will be together.

And here I go.Once again getting involved with him.

Is it just me and Marceau?

No, it's not. Starting with you two, we're going to invite two people every day. Since his work was similar to yours, we thought it would be better to have a joint event.

If you feel burdened to do it together, it's okay to change it.

Uncle Bang stepped up.

No, it's fine.

There's no reason to avoid him since he also seems to have changed.

I also want to ask him something about [Shadow].

Is there a Ferdinando Gonzalez signing event?

Of course, we asked, but he refused because of his health.

Gonzalez? Is he ill?

Grandpa asked anxiously.

I think he was anxious because he seems to be his good friend.

He was wearing a mask yesterday and I think he might have caught a cold.

I don't know for sure, Sir. Ko Sooyeol.

Hmm, there is no way that friend would refuse to do such an event.

Grandpa took out his smartphone.

It seems like he is sending a message to Ferdinando Gonzalez.

John Carter continued to talk about the signing event.

We're going to control the number of people. If you sign about 100 people, it will be less burdensome.

If I meet 100 people in only 90 minutes, I will be able to greet each person for about a minute. I wonder if I can properly say hello.

I want them to leave with a good memory.

I'm worried about what I can do in a short time.

Well, I look forward to your kind cooperation.

Yes.

I asked grandpa after breaking up with John Carter.

He put his smartphone in his pocket as if he had just sent a message.

What did Grandpa do at the signing event?

I greet them and give them a signature.

Do they really like it?

I don't know what they thought on the inside, but they looked happy."

Grandpa seems to have read my mind.

Why? Is it weird for you?

They came to see me. It's just that I dont like to just write down my name and send them.

Yes. I have some in the car, why?

I checked my watch and there was no time to go to the parking lot.

I want to hurry up and eat one, but I have to hold it in.

I think I know a little bit about why people are addicted to drugs.

Whats the matter, Hun?

I.. I have never had such delicious chocolate

Hahahaha. Okay. I'll bring it to you during the signing. Let's slowly go out.

Uncle Bang smiled as I raised my head with joy.

Sihyeon, who was in despair, also got delighted and his eyes lit up once again.

Is Grandpa not here yet?

I think so.

I guess grandpa who said he would go and meet Ferdinando Gonzalez has not returned yet.

I couldn't delay any longer, so I stood up and prepared to leave for the signing event.

This is unlikely, but knowing how stupid and unconscionable people who are addicted to drugs are, I advised Sihyeon.

You have to leave it alone. Lets eat together.

Sihyeon nodded quickly.

He is a good guy, so I decided to trust him this time.

Sihyeon's guardian Jung Jinho stepped up.

Only one Snack per day, Young Master.

The words castigated his happiness, hope, and will to live like a guillotine.

After following Uncle Bang out of the waiting room, I texted Sihyeon saying I would secretly give him chocolate later.

When I reached the venue, I could see people already standing in line.

People I saw for the first time in my life, waved their hands as soon as they saw me.

I'm glad.

I sat on the desk with my name on it.

Uncle Bang put chocolate and oil pastels next to me and patted me on my shoulder.

Then do well. It's okay not to draw if it's too much. Since it's a signing event.

Okay. Thank you, Uncle Bang.

If I give up because it's hard to draw, the person who didn't get the picture will be sad, so I'm going to draw it for all of them.

As I opened the oil pastel and was thinking about Noir Lint chocolate, Henry Marceau arrived.

Michelle Platini and his secretary also came with him.

The people standing in line to get a sign from Henry Marceau are happy, jumping, and not making a sound.

Hello.

Hmph.

I greeted him with joy, while Henry Marceau sat down with a snort.

How have you been Hun? The presentation was great.

Michelle Platini greeted me gently.

Thank you.

As we shook hands, Michelle Platini opened her eyes wide.

Oil pastel?

I'm going to draw for the fans.

Draw?

Michelle Platini was startled.

Henry Marceau, who turned his head in my direction, laughed looking at the oil pastels.

Didn't you hear how many people were coming? How do you plan on drawing 100 pictures in 90 minutes?

I can.

Yesterday, I simplified the sunflower shape using only two colors.

I didn't draw much because I only got oil pastels this morning, but there are some that I drew in advance.

It will be possible if I work hard.

Stop talking nonsense. Fan signing event is not a joke? What will happen to the remaining people if you can't draw them later because you got tired?

I thought he has changed a little, but his dog-like attitude hasn't changed a bit.

Don't think I can't do it because you can't.

.What?

Henry Marceau growled when I turned my head because I didn't want to deal with him anymore.

What did you just say?

What?

What you can do, I can't do it? So you are picking a fight, huh?

Henry Marceau's eyebrows are bizarrely twisted and veins popped up in his temples of the forehead.

Arsene.

Yes, El Patrn.

Bring me more sign pens!

TRIVIA

Does Van Gogh know the word "fan"?

The form of modern fandom began in 1893 as a public protest in mourning for Conan Doyle's mystery novel, Sherlock Holmes, when Holmes died. The Merriam-Webster Dictionary traces the exact use of the word fandom to around 1903. As fandom is a combination of Fan and suffix dom, the word Fan was likely used long before.
