The Journey of Love by an Idol

Episode 74

“Lee Da Eun? He became your temporary manager?”, asked Hyun Joo who had just stuffed a spoonful of salad into his mouth.

“Hn. Seongmin hyung suddenly resigned without notice. The agency was also confused. Compared to looking for new people, I am more comfortable if the familiar Daeun becomes a temporary manager.”, Daehyun explained.

“So, you asked Daeun to be your temporary manager?”, Hyun Joo clarified his question.

“Ah.. half - half. Bokman hyung also filed it. I only agreed to it because I felt comfortable with it.”, Daehyun replied.

“H.. Comfortable, yes.”, Hyun Joo muttered to himself while observing his salad and also staring at Daehyun occasionally.

Shortly after, the director called them to shoot their next scene. The instructions given are also quite clear.

“The director has called us. Come.”, said Daehyun wake up first from his chair.

He then stretched his body slightly while circulating his gaze in all directions.

“Yaa... Daeun.”, shouted Daehyun from where he stood. He had just seen Daeun in the crowd of people.

“Oh?”, in such a loud voice, of course Daeun immediately flinched.

However, he saw that there was Hyun Joo behind Daeun. For some reason, for some reason, Daeun hesitated a little.

“Yaaaa.. Lee Daeun. I waited for you. You're not running? I was calling you.”, said Daehyun who eventually even approached Daeun first.

Whereas, on the other hand, Hyun Joo had already attracted Daehyun first to go together. And Daehyun only reply ‘seventh.’.

“Where do you buy food? Jeju? Why so long.”, said Daehyun directly nagging - nagging.

“Are you not happy to miss your lunch with Hyun Joo. If I had come early, you couldn't have missed lunch with him after a week apart.”, Daeun said flatly.

Daehyun immediately scrunched his forehead.

‘Speaking nonsense what this one brat.’, Daehyun thought inwardly.

“Huh, what are you talking about. I was waiting for the kimbap, the hat, and the drinks I ordered. You bought everything, right? Just be careful if there is less.”, said Daehyun directly checking the plastic bags carried by Daeun.

“Of course I didn't buy the chips and some drinks you asked for. I can be killed by Bokman Ahjussi if I get caught. The freedom you got on the PC bang, I made sure it was only once. I don't want to lose my job.”, Daeun said in a cold tone.

“Good.. I-i understand. You don't have to say it in such a fierce tone. I understand what you mean. Why are you anyway? You're coming to the moon? Yes.. Daeuns.. Did you buy the pads? This shooting will last until night.”, said Daehyun directly spoke random where - where.

“Ah.. shh…. I hate you.”, said Daeun ranting to himself.

If only he wasn't Daehyun's current manager, he might have gone from there leaving those pockets on Daehyun.

“Hm. Looks like you're really coming to the moon. Be sure to buy pads, yes.”, Daehyun said taking one drink in the bag.

‘Hah... I can't hit him.’, Daeun protests inwardly.

Just now that she wanted to say something, a make up artist approached Daehyun to add some effects in her make-up.

“You will shoot what scene?”, asked Daeun.

“Fights.”, Daehyun replied.

“I want kimbap. Bribe two pieces of kimbap to me.”, said Daehyun while closing his eyes, because the make up artist is giving a touch of make-up in his eyes.

“You will be filming soon, where can you arrive - suddenly eat kimbap.”, Daeun replied.

“Can - could be. Come on.. put two in my mouth.”, Daehyun said.

“Kamsahamnida.”, Daehyun said after the make up artist finished refreshing his face.

“Ya already..”, Daeun relented and immediately took one kimbap then put it in Daehyun's mouth.

“Ahhh I can finally live.”, Daehyun said.

“Didn't you have lunch with Hyun Joo. Why are you still hungry.”, asked Daeun confused.

“I certainly can't be greedy in front of him. You don't understand the name keep the image. Never mind. You are still a child, do not know what.”, said Daehyun underestimated.

“I've been dating, you know. You are so arrogant.”, said Daeun defending himself.

Just as Daehyun was about to reply to Daeun's words, the director called back.

“Come, Daehyun-shi.”, Hyun Joo is already behind to take Daehyun to the shooting area.

***********

(Drama Shooting) Daehyun fights off a horde of schoolchildren who try to forcibly subdue one of the students at that school. The inevitable fight. Suddenly Hyun Joo as Kang Hye Jin arrived. 

Along with that, the sound of police sirens rang. The gang who had beaten Do Hyun (character played by Daehyun). 

“Hye Jin-ah”, Do Hyun said when he learned that the siren sound was just a hoax. 

Hye Jin deliberately rang it out of fear that the mob was beating Do hyun. Moreover, Do hyun is an athlete in their school. 

“Why aren't you afraid at all? You want to die? What if they beat you up.”, Hye Jin cried then followed by a speck of rain. 

CUTS

“Okay. I've never praised players like this. But, Daehyun, you are so talented. Just filming the first day, you made me imagine how people would respond to this drama.”, once again the Director sounded praise Daehyun.

“Hyun Joo.. your crying acting is getting better. Okay.. next we will move to the bus stop, yes.”, said the director.

All staff mobilize immediately. Without feeling, filming for about 8 hours was over. It's still the first day, the director doesn't want to film their artist. The next two hours were a press conference where they announced the filming had begun and the line-up of the cast.

“Daehyun, Hyun Joo, ...”, the Marketing section held a brief before filming closed and the opening party opened.

He gathered six main players for a short meeting.

“As informed at the beginning. We will be promoting the drama on several channels. Daehyun, you don't really like being on television shows, do you? In that case, Hyun Joo, and the other two main players will enter reality show.”, said the Marketing staff gave an explanation.

“For a YouTube event, it seems like all do not mind, yes. There are 4 line-ups. Two of them have confirmed. The filming will begin after we finish the 5 episodes. The director agreed to it too. While filming scenes for the extra cast, the main cast will be promoting by filming on the YouTube channel. One day for one channel. If confirm 4 then there will be 4 days. But take it easy, the time I will try is not sequential.”, he explained again.

Daehyun and Hyun Joo and the other players seemed to nod - nodding in understanding.
