Entertainment Life With A Camera

Chapter 140:

Chapter 140

Hanyeobin, who uploaded the photo she took with Ian first, had to turn off her phone for a while because of the explosive notifications.

Her MyStarGram was flooded with comments from Ian’s fans, not only from Korea but also from overseas. The comments surpassed 5,000 in an instant.

Ian remembered the scene he passed by when he was on Dangso and recognized me first.

He smiled and did fan service for each person who asked for a photo, even though there was a crowd because of me. I was so touched by himㅠㅠㅠ I hope to see him in other works too.

Despite the lack of concert revenue due to the corona situation, the company pushed for an unprecedented investment.

Of the six new songs in the repackaged album, three had music videos and the other three had teaser videos of one minute and 40 seconds each.

“The more we do this, the more money we smell.”

MyMedia was a golden opportunity. Representative Lee Byung Hun wanted to shoot overseas locations if he could. But since it was impossible in reality, he surveyed domestic attractions and famous studios, and invested generously in costumes, choreography, music videos, etc.

“Let’s go for a million this year.”

Lee Byung Hun chuckled. If the singers did their job well and the company didn’t skimp on money, the attention would naturally shift to them.

AWY (AWY), repackaged album pre-order volume surpasses 1 million… their own best record

It was a bold decision because the total distribution of their last regular album exceeded 800,000 copies.

-Members don’t come to Y app these days. Are you busy preparing for the album?

-I miss youㅠㅠㅠㅠㅜㅠㅜㅠ

Thanks to that, the AWY members were also busy. They even forgot to visit the fan cafe they used to come often and devoted themselves to preparing for their activities.

Ian still had unfinished drama filming in the meantime. Fortunately, the drama was pre-produced, so it didn’t overlap with his comeback activities.

“They gathered at Sukjeong’s (*Jang Hee Jae’s wife) house last night and did a mock trial.”

“Is that so? The people who participated in that meeting must know too.”

Kim Soa didn’t drink the tea that Kim Choon Taek offered her. She still looked wary.

“I can only tell you this much.”

She actually had a hidden card, but she deliberately bounced him off once because it would look easy if she gave it up obediently. Kim Choon Taek saw through her and hardened his expression.

“Madam, I’m disappointed. Aren’t we on the same boat now?”

Kim Choon Taek reached out and brushed Kim Soa’s cheek lightly. Kim Soa rolled her eyes and looked at his finger. His gaze that looked at her oppressively felt dangerous.

‘He’s a snake-like writer.’

But Kim Soa could guess what he was thinking. Her fate would depend on his hands when he achieved his goal with the information she gave him.

“Fine.”

She had no other way but this man anyway. Kim Soa pretended to lose and handed him the bid she had kept in her arms. Kim Choon Taek received the bid with a satisfied face.

“Cut! You two did a good job acting. Let’s shoot again from a different angle and monitor it.”

“Yes.”

“Ian, have a sip of water before you go in.”

A staff member handed Ian a water bottle. Park Dong Soo was scratching his head behind him, a step late.

[Isn’t this what a manager should do?]

‘I’m glad you’re taking care of me.’

Ian didn’t show any signs of being busy with his comeback preparations and his schedule. He perfectly handled his acting schedule, and thanks to that, the staff’s evaluation of Ian was very good.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“Yes, thank you for your hard work.”

Ian bowed his head and greeted the extra actors who passed by him. A person walking with his phone in the back row caught his eye.

‘Lee Ji Won…’

He, who had become Lee Se Min now, didn’t do anything noticeable. He belonged to a new agency that he had never heard of, and he had no backing in his family, so he seemed to be still wandering around the theater and extra actor scenes.

‘He’ll never rise above a supporting role if he stays like that.’

Lee Se Min was full of unmotivated actions and expressions. He had a few lines of dialogue and a high-weight extra role, but he didn’t even try to stand out.

“Ian’s group teaser came out.”

Ian, who was lost in thought, was awakened by Park Ji-yeon, the actress who played the role of Suk-bin. The supporting actors who participated in ‘Hee-bin Jang’s’ fixed their eyes on Park Ji-yeon’s phone screen.

“Oh, it’s already up?”

“Me too, me too, I want to see.”

“Dong-jae hyung, watch it later. It’s so embarrassing.”

The actors who were acting casually watched Awi’s comeback teaser video in real time. Ian felt suddenly shy and scratched his cheek.

“Wow, cool.”

“The dance is no joke.”

An Dong-jae, the actor who played the role of Suk-jong, waved his arms and followed Awi’s choreography. The actors laughed at his lame appearance.

“I feel like he’s an idol when I see the video.”

“You too, oppa? Well, Ian is so good at acting that he just looks like an actor.”

“Are you not praising me too much?”

During the filming of ‘Hee-bin Jang’, Ian became friends with the actors regardless of their roles. It was thanks to his social skills and affinity that he learned from his years of entertainment life combined with his previous life.

[Behind Photo] The cheerful filming site of ‘Hee-bin Jang’ actors

‘Hee-bin Jang’ pre-broadcast unprecedented interest… Actors’ golden chemistry attracts attention

The warm atmosphere of the filming site and the relationship of the actors were revealed through the reviews of the drama staff, and articles and interest poured out for ‘Hee-bin Jang’.

“Let’s start filming!”

“Yes!”

Ian jumped up.

“Lately, my husband has been meeting with Dong-pyung-gun often.”

“Is that so?”

Kim So-ah casually took the tea that Kim Chun-taek handed over. Had she become comfortable with what he gave her? Kim Chun-taek lowered his eyes and smiled brightly at her drinking tea.

“Why are you laughing?”

Kim So-ah put down the teacup and shook her hand. The sound of the teacup hitting was unusually loud.

“It’s nothing.”

Kim So-ah felt uncomfortable and ticklish. Kim Chun-taek had seized Kim So-ah’s stolen report from Jang Hee-jae.

‘She’s still a useful woman. It won’t hurt to have insurance.’

And if he made her his own, there would be no regrets… Kim Chun-taek had no other feelings besides that. No, maybe he was trying to think that he had none.

‘It could be a calculated action.’

Kim So-ah also reminded herself that his every action was trying to tempt her and kept her balance without falling for Kim Chun-taek.

***

“What’s wrong?”

He found Kim So-ah who had been slapped by Jang Hee-jae near where they had contacted. Kim Chun-taek saw her reddened eyes and ran to her front.

“It’s nothing.”

“…”

Kim So-ah tried to steady her sobbing voice. Kim Chun-taek looked at her back turned away and gently hugged her.

“My lady?”

“Please stay still.”

A sudden back hug, Kim So-ah twisted her body to get out of his arms.

“What if someone sees…”

“There’s no one here.”

“…”

“It’s hard to pass by a woman crying.”

Kim So-ah relaxed her body and leaned back quietly. The camera zoomed out from them and moved the angle to the full moon in the night sky.

***

Thanks to Kim So-ah’s leaked information, Kim Chun-taek played a big role in restoring Queen In-hyun.

The re-entry of Noron faction, and the sad regret story of Suk-jong and Queen In-hyun, the main actors of this drama, continued.

But that sadness didn’t last long. Queen In-hyun died after a long illness and Suk-jong blamed Jang Hee-bin for it.

Jang Hee-bin voluntarily died for cursing Queen In-hyun. Because of that, Jang’s family was also dragged to the palace and tortured.

‘It’s all over now.’

Kim So-ah, whose face was pale from torture, clenched her fist.

‘I can’t die like this. Like this…’

Kim So-ah, who was being tortured weakly, opened her eyes wide. She lifted her head and looked at Suk-jong.

“You said you would make Prince’s mother a queen.”

“Lady…?”

Jang Hee-jae, who was tied up next to her and tortured, called her with a trembling voice.

“Don’t you want to know who did the grave desecration?”

“Lady!!”

Jang Hee-jae screamed. Sukjong’s face twisted with rage. He shouted and threatened.

“Tell me everything you know!”

She was going to die anyway. Kim So-ah did not flinch and told the king all the facts she knew.

Before the coup, Kim Chun-taek bribed the prison guards to sneak in and see Kim So-ah, who was locked up in the prison.

Kim So-ah lay still in the narrow cell, looking like a corpse. He hastily grabbed the wooden bars. Upon closer inspection, he saw her small body twitching with breath.

“Why did you do that?”

“…”

“Why did you tell them everything?”

Kim So-ah, who was tortured and imprisoned, rolled her eyes and looked at Kim Chun-taek’s face.

“Even if you didn’t, Jang Hee-jae would not have escaped punishment.”

“…”

“Didn’t you know that you couldn’t save your own body?”

“Ever since… I became Jang Hee-jae’s concubine, my fate was already decided.”

Kim So-ah spoke with a cracked voice from not drinking water.

“Why did you come here then?”

“…I came to say goodbye. As comrades who once shared the same cause, can’t I watch your last moments?”

He must have. Kim So-ah snickered. Kim Chun-taek and Kim So-ah’s relationship ended here. They used each other for their goals. They just had different endings.

“You won’t look good if our relationship is exposed.”

“It will only be exile at worst.”

Kim So-ah chuckled softly.

Was it worry or sarcasm? He couldn’t tell. Her complexion was too pale and her face was covered with tangled hair, so he couldn’t see her expression.

“I don’t regret it. I saw the end of my revenge.”

Kim So-ah staggered and raised her upper body. She took out something she had kept in her bosom and handed it through the wooden bars.

“This, I don’t need it anymore.”

A red bead. Kim Chun-taek stared at it blankly, then reluctantly took it. He felt a slight tremor from her fingers that briefly touched his.

“Please go back now. This is the end of our farewell.”

Afterwards, the Jang clan was executed. Kim So-ah’s body was mutilated beyond recognition. It was an act of revenge by the families of those who were executed because of her exposure.

“…Burn it.”

His hand hesitated as he handed the bead to his servant. The servant noticed his movement and looked at Kim Chun-taek’s face. Kim Chun-taek closed his eyes for a moment and opened them.

“Completely.”

“Yes.”

The servant took the red bead from his limp grip.

He was praised as a meritocrat for restoring the power, but Kim Chun-taek was exiled to Jeju Island after his affair with Kim So-ah was revealed.

He stood on the beach with a shabby appearance and a beard, leaving behind his splendid attire.

“Someday, who will record me in the local history?”

Was it regret or another emotion? He felt a tremor in his heavy voice. He lowered his eyes as he looked at the distant horizon.

“Maybe he would have remembered me.”
