already one year!

Finding a whistleblower who posted about corruption on a blog and then deleted it was not as difficult as you might think.

···Of course, it wasn’t difficult for Bwin.

【It takes as much time as confirming that Hyejin Lee is a heavy Blue Chat user.】

To be honest, I was curious about how they could find it, but I didn’t ask because I felt like my heart would become heavy if I found out more.

‘Anyway, I was glad.’

Yuil followed Bwin’s advice and contacted a former employee of K-Du who wrote the article while hiding his name.

– Actually, when I wrote this, I was planning to make it public somehow. However, because the company is so close to the media, it was impossible for me to find a reporter who had no ties to them. Until then, I was scared because I was thinking of working for a company in Korea.

The author of the article said that he plans to work abroad soon and that he is glad to be able to talk about it like this. Instead of receiving all the information from the whistleblower, JJ Entertainment decided to keep the information completely secret.

Jang Jae-hyeon was in charge of contacting the reporter who would make it public.

After that, everything went smoothly.

– K-Doo Group’s ‘golf course bidding corruption’ becomes a fait accompli… Minority shareholders shed tears of blood

– Representatives of K-Do affiliates summoned for ‘golf course corruption’… Will the investigation be speeded up?

– All-inclusive search and seizure of Kidu Group, etc.

The direction of the investigation went all the way to WW Entertainment.

– KWM (formerly WWEnter) slush fund situation captured…CEO Seok-Woo Lee summoned for questioning

And, little by little, Kim Sun-ah’s story began to surface.

.

.

.

“Hey, you crazy bitch!”

As soon as Kim Sun-ah entered the office, she stopped at the sudden scream she heard.

The office looked like it had been bombed. Kim Sun-ah, who was looking around her office, opened her mouth with a calm face.

“I was worried.”

The director’s mouth closed at Kim Sun-ah’s words. Seon-ah, who saw the faint hope on Lee Seok-woo and her manager’s face, sneered.

“···Fortunately, it appears that the search and seizure was carried out properly.”

Director Kim foamed at her delicate tone of voice.

“How could you do that to us?!”

The manager always wore heavy makeup and tied her hair up high, but today was different. Smudged eyeliner and loose hair. There was no room to be found in the mouth that always showed its teeth in a smile.

“Do you think you went up there by yourself?!”

“···Seonaya.”

Lee Seok-woo, who was sitting like a still life on a black leather chair, opened his mouth.

“Aren’t we supposed to be like this?”

He continued speaking in an exaggeratedly sad voice.

“···.”

“Looking at your mother… can’t you just think about it again?”

Kim Sun-ah looked straight at him.

The events that were deeply engraved in my heart over the past 10 years could not heal as easily as a scratch. That man still scared her.

Kim Seon-ah clenched her trembling hands.

“You didn’t know.”

“···what?”

“I did it all with my mom in mind.”

But Kim Sun-a was now sure.

A mother would have wanted her own happiness.

“He said it would be better not to mention my mother. “Just tell me you’re sorry.”

Kim Sun-ah lowered her eyes and raised one corner of her mouth.

A laugh full of leisure.

“W-what?”

Lee Seok-woo’s eyes wavered.

Anyone could see that Suna looked peaceful now. The slight shaking of the voice also became more frequent.

“I hope you suffer for the rest of your life.”

Kim Sun-a continued speaking with a cold face, hiding her frantically beating heart.

“Just like you tormented me and others. “I hope you suffer every day.”

Because she was always confident in her acting.

– ‘Three Worlds’ KWM (formerly WW Entertainment) ends up in crisis… What’s the inside story?

– KWM in crisis over ‘slush fund creation/embezzlement charges’, what happens to its celebrities?

– Joo Ji-hyun, who directly said, ‘I was threatened under the pretext of renewing my contract’… Suspicion of gaslighting by KWM CEO

Jang Jae-hyun, who was flipping through the article with an expressionless face devoid of any emotion, turned off the monitor when he heard a knocking sound. At the same time, a smile appeared on Jang Jae-hyeon’s face.

The person who heard the knock lowered his head as soon as he entered.

“thank you.”

Jaehyun Jang bent down and quietly looked at the long hair that fell down to his calves.

“···Mr. Kim Seon-a. “You can straighten your back.”

He added, taking a quick look at Han Yu-il’s profile on the wall.

“And Yuil suffered more than me.”

“I heard that the CEO worked hard to prevent provocative articles from being published under my name.”

Jang Jae-hyeon continued speaking with a smooth smile.

“Seon-ah will also be working with us in the future. That much is natural.”

“…But thank you, CEO.”

After Kim Sun-ah terminated her contract with WW Entertainment, many agencies sent her love calls. It was only natural that she was in her early 20s, as it is rare to find an actress with such good acting skills.

However, among the numerous agencies, the one that Kim Sun-ah chose was JJ Entertainment.

Kim Sun-ah’s maroon eyes turned to the floor.

“I would like to say thank you to Mr. Yoo Il separately.”

Kim Sun-ah simply handed Yoo Il the information she had collected so far, but did not know the detailed story. However, it was clear that Yuil was directly involved in all of these situations.

There was a time when I tried to dig into the reason and find out why he was doing this to me, but not anymore.

It was clearly good intentions.

…I still couldn’t believe it.

Kim Sun-ah looked out the window and sighed lightly.

*

The afternoon of the same day.

Yu Il entered the company after a long time and opened the white door.

Kim Sun-ah and Park Young-hyun were already sitting at the round table. Yuil sat down in the remaining empty seat and opened his mouth.

“How have you both been?”

Only then did warmth appear in the previously silent conference room.

“I had a good time.”

“me too.”

The conversation didn’t last long because both of us were quiet, but it still felt different than when we first met.

As expected, today was the day when JJ Entertainment filmed a short promotional video to be posted on OTube with its actors.

“It will be over soon, so don’t be too nervous!”

As the staff said, the filming wasn’t that difficult.

The three of them had a short conversation as written in the script, then looked at the camera and said New Year’s greetings and plans for the year.

“Hello, I’m actor Han Yu-il. Actually, I am still embarrassed to say that I am an actor, but I will try to show a better side of myself in the future. Happy New Year, I hope you have a great year. thank you.”

Yuil was the first to finish his greeting.

After saying hello, Yu Il looked around and was a little embarrassed.

‘…what?’

The reason was unknown, but Park Young-hyun and Kim Sun-ah’s eyes… were different from before.

“···As much as I have received so much love, I will repay you through acting. “I will show you Kim Sun-ah, who has been reborn as a new person, different from before.”

“I will become an actor who can leave good memories to everyone who remembers me, whether they first knew me as Park Young-hyun 20 years ago or new people.”

…I’m sure it wasn’t that greeting when I first practiced.

“Wow, you’re so passionate, actors?”

The PR team employee, who knew nothing, clapped his hands with a bright face.

‘···No matter what, it just has to come out well.’

The PR team member raised his thumb in satisfaction.

“Thank you all for your hard work~”

“Thank you for your hard work.”

It was that time when everyone stood up after giving a light greeting.

“Oh, Mr. Yuil, can you stay for a moment?”

Yuil nodded at the employee’s words and sat down again. Soon everyone, including employees, left the conference room.

“I’ll be back soon, so don’t go anywhere and just sit there!”

“Well… Il-il! “I have some work to do, so I’m going out!”

As Min Woo-jin, who seemed more nervous than usual, left the conference room, Yu Il was left alone in the quiet conference room.

…I guess about 10 minutes have passed since then.

Yuil continued to sit in the empty conference room and wait.

Thanks to this, Bwin was calculating probabilities without even asking him to.

【···15.9% chance of a sudden accident after leaving the conference room, 0.5% chance of forgetting Yuil···】

‘stop. ‘I’ll be there soon.’

It was then.

Suddenly the lights in the conference room went off.

Just as Yuil was blinking and trying to look around, a beam projector was shot at the empty wall.

“…?”

As Yuil looked around without knowing what was happening, a video started playing on the white wall.

[JJ♡Han Yoo-il]

A cute, bouncy letter appeared in large letters.

[Already one year!]

Yuil was still blinking, unable to grasp the situation.

Meanwhile, the video turned on by the beam projector was sequentially showing various still cuts that Yuil had taken at the filming site.

As the still cut progressed, the cute font continued to pop and take up the center of the video.

[Working non-stop like a cow!]

[Born to act!]

All kinds of unfamiliar modifiers passed by, and huge light blue letters appeared on the black screen.

[Han Yu-il]

“···ah.”

If I had felt dazed just a moment ago, now I felt like I was dying of embarrassment. Han Yu-il lowered her head, covering her face with one hand.

I’m really grateful… but I was so embarrassed.

-widely!

At that moment, the light came on.

“Happy 1st anniversary~ Happy 1st anniversary~ Dear actor Han Yoo-il~ Happy 1st anniversary~”

And the employees whom Yuil had been waiting for so long showed their faces. Holding a light blue lettering cake with a lit candle in the shape of the number 1.

“Congratulations, Yuil~”

Director Jae-yi Jang shouted cheerfully next to the cake.

Min Woojin was clapping his hands passionately while wearing a cute sized cocked hat. For some reason, Park Young-hyun and Kim Sun-a were also standing behind them, wearing the same pointed hat. Even two cinematographers with cameras came along.

‘···no way.’

Only then did Yuil’s eyes see a small camera hanging in the corner of the ceiling.

“Now you know!”

“I was worried because everyone said Yoo Il would be quick to notice~”

“Oh, I’m so glad!”

The words of each employee speaking in excited voices resonated in the conference room. In reality, Yoo Il was completely out of his mind.

“Uh… thank you…”

It felt like a completely unexpected gift had arrived.

It feels like receiving a Christmas present in the middle of summer.

It was a cake with cute whipped cream flowers embroidered on a dark blue and light blue pigment background like an impressionist oil painting. After blowing out the candle, the letters written in purple cream caught my eye.

[The only Han Yuil in this world, let’s only walk on the flower path!]

“Yoo-il said he likes light blue, so I chose it on purpose! how is it?”

It was only then that I remembered a passing conversation I had with Min Woojin about a month ago.

– Yuil, this may be unexpected, but what color do you like?

– Me? …Well, I don’t have a particular favorite color… If I had to choose, would it be light blue?

‘That’s how it’s used.’

They were more meticulous people than I thought.

“Congratulations, Yuil.”

“congratulations.”

Park Young-hyun and Kim Sun-ah greeted each other with bright faces. However, Yuil was not completely at ease.

“···I couldn’t even go to Younghyun senior’s one-year anniversary party.”

“of course. “You were filming Mr. Yuil.”

Younghyun looked at Yuil as if he was saying something obvious.

An employee who saw this quietly whispered to Yuil.

“Originally, I wasn’t going to invite the actors, but they said they really wanted to celebrate together.”

…There’s no need for that.

But it was true that it felt good.

“Let’s eat something delicious today!”

“Everyone, order whatever you want to eat!”

The staff, who somehow seemed more excited than Yuil, said, ‘Expensive sushi!’ ‘Expensive chicken!’ ‘Expensive ribs!’ ‘Expensive shaved ice!’ He shouted back, and Jang Jae-yi willingly ordered all the menu items.

.

.

.

The small party came to an end when everyone’s stomachs were filled with all kinds of food. Before returning home, Yoo Il went to Director Jang Jae-i’s office at his request.

“···Thank you, Manager. “I was really surprised.”

“It seemed like it. “It’s worth preparing.”

Jang Jae-yi, who was looking at Yuil with a proud face, slowly opened his mouth.

“···I plan to create an official fan club to commemorate Yoo Il’s 1st anniversary. With an online fan meeting.”

“yes?”

A fan meeting.

When Yoo Il looked at Jang Jae Yi with startled eyes, she spoke in a somewhat stern voice.

“I can not help it. The employees are having a hard time because of Mr. Yuil. “I’ve been getting a lot of calls asking me to create an official fan club for Mr. Yuil.”

Jang Jae-yi, seeing Yoo Il’s embarrassed expression, burst into laughter.

“It’s a joke to say that the employees are having a hard time. “I had already prepared this two months ago.”

She gave a mischievous smile.

“how is it. “Are you excited?”

“···yes.”

【Heart rate rises by 21bpm. Temperature normal. Oxygen saturation is normal. It is judged to be a state of slight tension or excitement.】

Yuil listened to Bwin’s words and lifted his glass of water. As I drank the cold water, my excitement seemed to subside a little.

“Oh, by the way, Yuil. And now we have to get ready.”

“What?”

“The Berlin Film Festival. < Strange Garden>. “You were invited to the panorama section.”

···Yuil stopped drinking and squirted out the water he had been drinking.
