Prince From Another Dimension Becomes An Idol [EN]: Chapter 170

“Woochul! Thank you!”

“Woochul, I’ll enjoy it!”

“I wondered why you said you missed the *hyungs* [older brothers or male figures]. So the members are the best, huh? I’ll drink well!”

As Woochul, Han Wooseok, and Jo Euna approached the entrance, greetings poured out from the staff and other cast members.

All the greetings were directed at Woochul, and they each held a coffee cup and a churro in their hands.

“What is this…….”

It was when Woochul was quickening his pace with a puzzled look.

“Oh?! Woochul, it’s your face!”

Jo Euna shouted, looking at the cup holder that wrapped the takeout coffee cup.

As Jo Euna said, Woochul’s face was engraved on the cup holder.

It was the same photo as the blanket Woochul had around his shoulders.

It was a legendary photo that Woochul’s fans, as well as Woochul himself, loved…….

“Woochul.”

“*Hyung*!”

Greeting Woochul, who had gone out to the entrance, were Dojae and Louis.

“*Hyung*? Kim Louis?!”

Woochul’s already big eyes grew even bigger.

Behind Dojae and Louis, a large truck came into view.

The truck had a banner that read, ‘Park Woochul is treating! We support !’

The staff who received drinks and churros from the truck lined up and thanked Woochul every time they passed.

“How did you two……!”

“We like surprises, *hyung*! Were you surprised! Were you surprised! *Hyung*, did you capture my surprised face?!”

Louis said excitedly.

Jung Gilju, who appeared from behind, waved his cell phone and shouted, “Of course.”

“Wow…….”

A pretty dumbfounded expression must have been captured, but he didn’t care about that.

Woochul, who was surprised, was simply immersed in the overwhelming emotion that surged up.

“When did you prepare something like this!”

At Woochul’s choked question, Dojae chuckled and replied.

“All the members did it together. Only the two of us had free time, so only the two of us came.”

“It’s a bit much to have too many people coming.”

“Thank you so much…. Thank you, *hyung*.”

“It wasn’t just us, so say hello to the other *hyungs* later.”

“Of course. Wow, really…. Thank you.”

Woochul kept repeating his thanks.

Dojae and Louis looked at each other and smiled.

At first, they were only thinking of sending a coffee truck so as not to interfere with the filming.

Then, Dojae heard from actor Park Seungho that, depending on the director’s tendency, it would be okay to go to the set and cheer them on in person.

As a result of checking with Jung Gilju, the staff’s opinion was that if the members came to the set to cheer them on, it would rather help promote .

If so, wouldn’t it be more helpful to Woochul to come to the set and cheer him on in person…….

It seemed like that thought was right.

‘I’m glad I came.’

Dojae thought.

This was nothing for Woochul, who was having a hard time filming alone, but seeing Woochul so touched made him feel twice as proud.

“Ah!”

Woochul, who was moved by the cheering phrases engraved all over the truck, belatedly realized that Jo Euna and Han Seokwoo were also next to him.

Han Seokwoo happened to be there…….

“Here, as you know, *noona* [older sister or female figure], these are our members. *Hyung*, Louis. This is the female lead of our drama! Euna *noona*. Ah, Dojae *hyung* is the same age.”

“Hello! You’re Ping Pong’s leader, right?!”

“Nice to meet you. It’s an honor to meet you, senior.”

At Louis and Dojae’s greetings, Jo Euna’s expression, which was already bright, became even brighter.

“Wow…. Louis-nim. You even know that I’m the leader.”

“You’re our senior! Of course, I know!”

Jo Euna couldn’t hide her laughter at Louis’s words.

“I’m so grateful that you recognize me as Ping Pong.”

“Speak comfortably, senior! If you’re Woochul *hyung*’s *noona*, you’re totally my *noona* too!”

At Louis’s words, Jo Euna created a friendly atmosphere, saying, “You have a good personality as I’ve heard, Louis-nim!”

Even so, Jo Euna didn’t make eye contact with Dojae very well.

They were from the same idol group, even a junior group, but Jo Euna sincerely liked MOST.

She liked their music, but Dojae, as a member, was an object of Jo Euna’s admiration.

Singing, dancing, and the talent and flair as an idol.

He had everything.

Isn’t there a saying that there are ‘celebrities’ celebrities’?

To Jo Euna, MOST and Dojae were such beings.

In the first place, Jo Euna was from a fan club of a certain idol group, and she became an idol herself after becoming interested in idols.

In Jo Euna’s opinion, there was no idol as perfect as Dojae among the idols who had recently come out.

Seeing him in person, he was as handsome and cool as he was in the stage videos.

It was hard to look at him properly because her face might turn red.

‘I want to take a picture with him…….’

But it seemed too rude to ask on the first meeting.

Dojae, who had no way of knowing Jo Euna’s heart, thought as he looked at Jo Euna.

‘She’s a cheerful senior. I’m glad Woochul is working with a good colleague.’

And Dojae’s gaze naturally turned to Han Seokwoo, who was frowning as he stared blankly at the coffee truck.

It was hard to tell whether it was because of the intense sunlight or because he didn’t like something.

Woochul, who saw Han Seokwoo, hesitated in an ambiguous position and said.

“This is Han Seokwoo senior, who plays the male lead role.”

Anyway, he debuted as an actor in a drama before Woochul, so he was a senior to Woochul.

It was when Dojae and Louis were about to bow their heads and greet Han Seokwoo.

“Nice to meet…….”

Han Seokwoo, who also nodded briefly, passed by without even letting Louis and Dojae speak.

He only gave the bare minimum of greetings to avoid causing trouble, and he was just as rude.

At Han Seokwoo’s behavior, Dojae’s expression hardened for a moment.

However, Dojae didn’t show it and looked at the place where Han Seokwoo had left.

“…Annoying.”

Han Seokwoo’s dissatisfied voice was heard clearly by everyone, not just Dojae.

He was just like the person who had upset Woochul by saying, ‘What’s so great about MOST.’

Woochul frowned and looked at Dojae and Louis.

He didn’t want to make Dojae and Louis, who had come to cheer him on, feel bad.

“Ha…….”

However, he couldn’t make things more noisy, so Woochul took a deep breath and sighed.

Jo Euna, who was watching the atmosphere, quickly called her manager.

“*Oppa* [older brother or male figure]! Please take a picture of me!”

Jo Euna’s manager, who was nearby, quickly came to Jo Euna.

“I’ll take a picture with coffee and churros and upload it to my account! Thank you, Woochul!”

“Ah, yes. *Noona*. I should be thanking you. I didn’t do anything…….”

“I’ll enjoy it.”

Jo Euna said to Louis and Dojae.

The two smiled and nodded.

“*Hyung*, you should try the churros too! I found the best place!”

At Louis’s words, Woochul also quickly lined up to receive a churro.

“*Hyung* and Louis should eat too.”

“I already ate churros while tasting them…. I should have a cup of coffee.”

“You even tasted them?”

“Louis was quite passionate about choosing snacks.”

At Dojae’s words, Woochul exclaimed ‘Oh!’ towards Louis.

Louis winked one eye and made a proud expression.

“You must be busy…. Really, thank you so much.”

Woochul, who thanked them again, tasted the churro when it was his turn.

“Wow, it’s really delicious!!!”

Louis’s shoulders rose even higher at Woochul’s exclamation.

Woochul smiled, looking at Louis cutely.

“Woochul, you should take a picture too.”

“Ah, I should take a hundred pictures!”

At Jung Gilju’s words, Woochul started taking selfies with his cell phone.

Meanwhile, a group of staff members who were around cautiously approached Louis and Dojae.

“Excuse me…. Could you sign something for me?”

“Huh?”

Louis asked in surprise at the unexpected request for a signature.

The staff members looked embarrassed but stubbornly held out their notebooks.

“My child is a fan of Louis-gun [term of respect]…….”

“I’m a fan of Dojae-ssi [term of respect]!”

Dojae and Louis laughed lightly at the staff’s words.

“Of course, I have to do it.”

Dojae skillfully took the pen and signed it.

Woochul, who was excitedly taking selfies and posing in front of Jung Gilju, made a dumbfounded voice when he saw the scene.

“Wow! Lighting director and Hyejin *noona*! That’s too much! You didn’t ask me to sign anything!”

The lighting director and a woman named Hyejin, who was an on-site assistant, smiled awkwardly at that.

“You’re too much…….”

“No, we can see you anytime.”

Hyejin quickly comforted Woochul when Woochul jokingly said it was too much.

Woochul seemed to get along with any staff member without hesitation.

Dojae was relieved that Woochul seemed to be adapting well to the filming set.

‘However…. That male lead from earlier…. Han Seokwoo? That guy is a bit of a concern.’

It didn’t seem like he was just in a bad mood today.

Judging from Woochul’s reaction, it didn’t seem like it was just a day or two.

‘Woochul is secretly deep inside. I didn’t know because he didn’t say anything…….’

Of course, it could be that he wasn’t stressed enough to talk about it.

But Dojae’s gut was telling him that wasn’t the case.

Thinking that he should talk to him later if he had a chance, Dojae took a sip of the iced Americano with a savory taste.

***

About thirty minutes of resting, huddled together in one corner of the set, eating drinks and churros.

“We should get going now.”

“Already?!”

Woochul made a disappointed voice when Jung Gilju started to clean up.

“I should go because it seems like filming will start soon.”

“It would be nice to watch Woochul *hyung* film!”

Louis said with a regretful look.

Although it was a web drama, it was Louis’s first time coming to a drama set, so he was more reluctant to leave this place.

“I think it would be nice if *hyung* and Louis could watch my acting too…….”

It was embarrassing, but since the two had helped him from the beginning when he chose , he thought it would be nice if they could watch his acting too.

“But I shouldn’t get in the way of filming.”

At Dojae’s words, Woochul and Louis nodded.

It was when the two were about to leave.

“Are you leaving now?”

“Yes. I have to go now. The coffee truck will be taken care of by the company at the end of filming. Thank you for adjusting your schedule.”
The assistant director, who was talking to Jung Gilju, asked.

“Are you leaving because you have a schedule? Since you’re here, why don’t the members watch Woochul-*gun* [term of respect] film…….”

“Huh, assistant director! Is that okay?”

“Of course. There are a lot of staff members here anyway, so what’s wrong with just watching from behind? The marketing team will like it more?”

At the assistant director’s words, Louis looked at Jung Gilju with shining eyes.

“I have enough time for about an hour.”

“Yes!”

Louis shouted excitedly.

“Thank you for your understanding. Then I’ll be a little more rude.”

Dojae bowed politely to the assistant director.

The assistant director, who saw such Dojae for the first time, paused for a moment, but smiled pleasantly and said, “You have a very good personality,” and left to prepare for filming.

“Then shall we see Woochul *hyung*’s skills?!”

“Wow, Kim Louis, if you say that, I’ll get nervous!”

While bickering like that, Jung Gilju and the three entered the set.

***

Shortly after.

When the full-scale filming began and the cue sign fell, Woochul was standing in front of the camera with a face that no one could have imagined was the same Woochul from a moment ago.

Including Jo Euna and Han Seokwoo.

The three people did their best to immerse themselves in their roles and act.

‘This is it.’

And Dojae, who was watching the filming from the side, couldn’t help but immediately notice Han Seokwoo’s dissatisfaction with Woochul.
