The one who wants to wear the crown (4)

Team leader Shim Jun contacted the director’s office, which can be said to be the powerhouse of Hwa & Su production company. The director was away, and the secretary who answered the phone asked what I wanted to meet with the director for.

At the time, team leader Shim Jun expressed his intention to meet with the director, saying that as he had discussed with Do-wook, the KK member was a fan of writer Jeong Eun-soo and wanted to meet him.

There were often cases where celebrities or famous people contacted the company saying they wanted to meet each other.

Of course, if that was really the intention, the manager, not the album production team leader, would have contacted me. However, I had no choice but to ignore it because it was more natural and there was a higher chance of meeting.

There was no prior agreement, so I couldn’t just say I wanted to participate in the OST work.

The call I just received was from my secretary.

Of course, being contacted meant something positive.

In this way, Do-wook soon met the director of the production company Hwa & Soo and Jeong Eun-soo, who can be said to be the best star writer of the drama, at the same place.

Team leader Sim Jun accompanied Do-wook.

The meeting between the four took place at a high-end Korean restaurant in Ilsan. This was because artist Jeong Eun-soo’s studio was located in Ilsan.

Team leader Sim Jun and Do-wook, who arrived first, prepared course A for four people.

Writer Eunsoo Jeong and director Mijeong Kwon of Hwa&Soo arrived about ten minutes later than the scheduled time. When the two people pushed the door of the tatami room and entered, team leader Sim Jun and Do-wook, who were sitting, stood up.

“hello.”

“hello.”

“Oh, I’m sorry I’m late. I’m sorry.”

As soon as Director Kwon Mi-jeong opened her mouth, she apologized. Team leader Sim Jun quickly responded that it was okay. Writer Jeong Eun-soo, who was standing behind him, greeted him with a quiet nod.

Writer Jeong Eun-soo had permed short hair and was wearing horn-rimmed glasses. Although he was about forty-five years old, he looked young enough to be believed to be in his late thirties.

Of course, it could have been that she looked younger because she had an unadorned face without any makeup. He was dressed in a shirt and jeans.

Writer Jeong Eun-soo looked very tired as she sat down.

“Thank you for being here. “I ordered the course first. It will be okay, right?”

“Of course, then.”

Director Kwon Mi-jeong answered with a friendly smile. He was definitely a person who cared for writer Jeong Eun-soo and at the same time took care of numerous broadcasting officials.

As soon as everyone was seated, the waiter brought out pre-dinner food.

Team Leader Sim Jun and Director Kwon Mi-jeong continued their conversation while emptying the pre-dinner food. I could sense that writer Jeong Eun-soo seemed tired. Director Kwon Mi-jeong said that she felt that Team Leader Shim and Do-wook were looking at the signs of writer Jeong Eun-soo.

“Right now, our writer Jeong’s drama has begun filming... and will be aired soon. So I’m a bit busy. Because I was writing a script. “Today, I stayed up almost all night and slept during the day, and then I just woke up and came out.”

Director Mi-jeong Kwon’s explanation allowed Team Leader Shim and Do-wook to understand the condition of writer Eun-soo Jeong. I wasn’t even conscious yet, but I was dragged out to dinner.

Team Leader Sim Jun looked a little sorry and asked.

“You mean ‘successors’?”

“You know. There was some publicity involved. yes that’s right. ‘Successors.’”

Director Kwon Mi-jeong responded with joy.

“You must be busy working on the script... We are inconvenienced by the writer for no reason.”

“Oh no. Writer Jeong also has to eat anyway. “Isn’t that right, Writer Jeong?”

Director Kwon Mi-jeong tapped writer Jeong Eun-soo on the side and asked. Writer Jeong Eun-soo seemed to come to her senses only after eating some cold vegetables served as pre-dinner food.

“that’s right. “They’re all just trying to make a living...”

Team leader Sim Jun laughed at writer Eun-soo Jeong’s words.

“And I came out because Do-wook said he contacted me. Honestly, if it were anyone else, I wouldn’t be here.”

“That’s right, that’s right. “We also wanted to meet Do-wook.”

Do-wook asked what writer Jeong Eun-soo said as if he was wondering what she meant.

“Actually, both I and Director Kwon here are fans of Do-wook. “While watching Do-wook’s debut film, I wondered where director Shin Yun-ho brought a friend like that.... He’s an idol.”

“Oh yes....”

“I don’t know much about idols. Well, it was just like that until then, but I also saw ‘Blue Whale’. “I know someone who is a cinephile, so we saw him at a small theater together, and he was so different that I thought he was the same actor I saw in ‘Get Ready.’”

“thank you.”

“First of all, if you want to be the male lead in my drama, your face is important, and your face is the star. “I think it would be great if Do-wook did it.”

Do-wook simply thanked writer Jeong Eun-soo for his praise. Dowook was truly dumbfounded. Writer Jeong Eun-soo was a writer who would become even better in the future.

The label of a snobbish writer, which is now attached to him, was short-lived. If a series of dramas with viewership ratings exceeding 50% was a hit, it would no longer be able to be labeled as such. Increasingly, the world of author Eunsoo Jeong’s work captures both fun and depth.

It was because I had no idea that writer Jeong Eun-soo would keep an eye on Do-wook.

‘Really........ Every day is a different life. ‘My life is becoming more than I dream of.’

Do-wook thought to himself in admiration.

“Oh, our writer Jeong actually has a drama he’s been planning for a long time?”

“Is that so? What.......”

“Well, I’m not at the stage to say it yet, but since we’ve seen each other and we get along well, it would be nice if we could work together in the future.”

Team leader Sim Jun and Do-wook nodded at Director Kwon Mi-jeong’s words.

“Please contact me anytime. “I definitely want to appear in writer Jeong’s drama.”

Director Kwon Yi-jeong and writer Jeong Eun-soo’s expressions brightened at Do-wook’s words.

Actually, I wanted to cast him in ‘Heirs’, but Do-wook’s casting was canceled due to problems with the investor. It was Director Kwon Mi-jeong who I really regretted at that time.

Director Kwon Mi-jeong and writer Jeong Eun-soo were veterans who had been doing this work for quite some time. Although Do-wook has already become a star, we can be sure that he will become even more successful in the future. I had a desire to catch it before that. Therefore, I was very happy when Do-wook contacted me first.

It was because I fell in love with movies after watching an art film and was worried that I might not move on to dramas like some other actors.

While eating, we exchanged stories about dramas and singers that we don’t know much about, creating a friendly atmosphere.

While talking about going to the U.S. to work with LIL, Shim Jun, the head of the album production team, talked about the differences in technology and treatment of technicians. Likewise, in the drama industry, he said that there was a big difference from the American drama market, and a consensus was formed as people in the entertainment industry.

When the story ripened, Team Leader Sim Jun brought up the story.

“Actually, I’m a fan of writer Jeong Eun-soo’s dramas, so even if I can’t appear in the drama, I still want to work together somehow.”

Director Mi-jeong Kwon’s eyebrows slightly raised at Team Leader Sim Jun’s words. I thought there must have been a separate main topic. However, he pretended not to know and asked fussily what it was.

“Oh my, what is it? “It would be nice if we could do anything together.”

“That OST....”

“Ah....”

As soon as the word OST came out, Director Kwon Mi-jeong’s expression darkened.

“I’m still upset because of that. You may know this, but there are so many people willing to dip their feet into it. So much? “It’s salty.”

At Director Kwon Mi-jeong’s words, Team Leader Sim Jun’s expression darkened slightly. After thinking for a while, Director Mijeong Kwon continued. It was absolutely no loss if KK participated in the OST.

“Plus, this time, there’s a separate song that even writer Jeong is pushing... I think that might be the main theme... If it’s okay if it’s not necessarily the main theme...”

When director Kwon Mi-jeong became slurred, writer Jeong Eun-soo also helped.

“I know. There’s a song I’m obsessed with this time, so I’m planning on contacting them tomorrow. “I wish you had contacted me a little sooner.”

Writer Jeong Eun-soo spoke with regret, but Do-wook replied that it was okay and asked.

“What kind of song is it?”

“Oh, Mr. Do-wook will know the song better, so would you like to listen to it? He’s a newcomer, so I recommend it, but I also have some concerns.”

Writer Jeong Eun-soo took out her cell phone and opened a music player app.

Soon, music that writer Jeong Eun-soo was obsessed with started playing.
