“Ah~! You really didn’t know? Our program is usually like this! It’s the characteristic and advantage of our program.”

“Um… Doesn’t that make it difficult to deal with unexpected situations?”

Yeon Do-hee asked.

“That’s why our writers will be following along. If there’s a problem, we can solve it on the spot.”

“Really… are we proceeding with absolutely nothing planned?”

Yeon-woo asked, following her.

“This is the biggest advantage of our program! You don’t have to worry about anything while filming. We create the storyline through editing, but there won’t be any artificial feeling. We minimize that kind of thing!”

The main PD [Producer Director, the head of the production team] said with a confident voice.

Then, as if understanding his own explanation was needed, he elaborated.

“Some people are unfamiliar with having no script at all. But these days, viewers are very perceptive; they can tell even if it’s just a little artificial. We don’t have any forced directing like that, so you can see a more genuine side. I heard that’s why you chose our program…?”

The voice that had been confidently briefing shrank back at the end.

“…….”

‘Was this what they meant by a carefully chosen program?’

No wonder Kwon Seong-hyun spoke so confidently.

-There’s definitely an image that the public is expecting right now. You can emphasize this while also having a friendly image. But it’s difficult to directly set that image… It’s better to just show yourself as you are. It’s simple if you think of it as a stepping stone to transfer the favorability you have for the movie character to actor Kang Yeon-woo.

‘Is that simple?’

I feel like I could lightly grab his collar if he were in front of me.

Hmm.

I should try it sometime later.

Of course, Kwon Seong-hyun would never do anything that would harm him…

‘The freedom is too high, isn’t it?’

“Ahem. Anyway, we’re very clean in that regard, so our recognition is also high. These days, even if you come on TV and try to promote yourself hard, everyone knows it’s all planned out. But we don’t have anything like that, so you can relax and do whatever you want! Ah, a surprised look is also one of the key points. This is where people’s true nature comes out in unexpected situations. The genuine side that comes out here! It’s very dramatic. Of course, if the situation is too extreme, we’ll cut it to some extent, so don’t worry too much…”

The man, who had been completely intimidated, started rattling on when his program came up.

None of the explanations are particularly reassuring…

I was worried before we even started.

Is this going to be okay?

*

The progress went smoothly, surprisingly.

The main PD, who emphasized naturalness, repeatedly gave a thumbs up, saying that he liked the unreserved appearance.

“Can we go now?”

“Yes! Now the two of you can compete.”

Competition.

The purpose of this program was very simple.

Participants go around meeting people, accept simple dates or requests from fans who recognize them, and receive a mission completion stamp.

The winner is determined by who receives more mission completion stamps, a simple method.

The main PD was very proud, saying that the citizens participating in the mission were also 100% real, with no one being scouted.

After the opening.

The people gathered in the parking lot began to stir and move.

“Yeon-woo, which way are you going to go? I’m going that way.”

Yeon Do-hee, who approached, pointed to one side.

“I’m planning to take public transportation to the center from that side. They told me not to tell you this… but, eh. Still, the competition should be fair, right? Let’s go together, Yeon-woo.”

“I’m going to go the opposite way. The competition must be fair and square.”

“Oh. Is that how you’re coming out? I might be more advantageous, you know?”

“You never know until you try.”

Yeon-woo smiled, and Yeon Do-hee also smiled back.

“Fighting!”

“Fighting, senior.”

Yeon Do-hee waved her hand first and disappeared.

The staff who had been scheduled in advance followed behind her.

Following that, half of the black suit squad also began to move at a distance.

‘First of all…’

Yeon-woo moved in the exact opposite direction from Yeon Do-hee.

As expected, people followed Yeon-woo.

“Where are you planning to go?”

The writer next to the cameraman, who was holding a camera with a red light on, asked.

“Well. I don’t really have any plans yet… Shouldn’t I just go where there are people?”

He came out of the alley where the parking lot was and onto the main street.

Thanks to the gently loosening weather, there are quite a few people walking around the streets.

‘What?’

‘What is that?’

‘Hmm? What’s with the camera?’

‘Are they filming something…?’

The glances they were giving seemed to be asking just that.

It was no wonder, since a handsome man was not only carrying a camera but also had quite a few people gathered around him.

The only fortunate thing was that the black behemoths had disappeared somewhere on their own.

Receiving the passing gazes, Yeon-woo found a place where he wouldn’t be a hindrance and took a seat.

And then he just stood there.

“Yeon-woo…?”

‘He must have some other innovative idea.’

The staff, who thought so, waited for a few minutes.

More than 5 minutes passed, more than 10 minutes passed.

It was only after more than 15 minutes that the writer, sensing something was wrong, carefully asked.

“Yes.”

“Aren’t you moving? You have to do the mission…”

“Ah. I promised to do this.”

“Pardon? Who did you promise that to?”

‘Who on earth made such an absurd promise?’

The camera shook at the absurd sound.

The bewildered writers looked at each other.

‘Should we cut this off?’

Who on earth did he make what promise that he’s been standing still for over 15 minutes?

There were countless people who wanted to appear on this entertainment show because it had a good reputation among viewers.

From singers who desperately needed image laundering after causing an accident and going into hiding, to rookies who were sweating blood to get their names out there.

Not only that.

Even veteran actors and talents subtly put pressure on them, saying they wanted to break away from their fixed image and play a new role, making it difficult to refuse.

‘When they come out here, they all try to squeeze out as much screen time as possible, saving every minute and second.’

That’s the typical appearance of someone who appears on this entertainment show.

Whatever the purpose of the appearance, the purpose of the program was competition!

They try to distribute the parts as fairly as possible and go through editing, but that’s only possible when a certain amount of footage is secured.

It’s quite difficult to salvage boring sections or boring missions.

Anyway, this is entertainment.

If there’s no point, even if he has that warm and handsome mask, the merciless blade of editing will pass by.

‘He was a really good actor. Is it because he’s a rookie and doesn’t have a sense of entertainment yet? Hmm. Should I coach him a little…?’

The writer was also one of the people who enjoyed the movie.

I don’t know how much I cried thinking about my first love.

I thought he was a really good actor…

It was just when the writer, who felt sorry for Yeon-woo’s footage, which resembled his first love, was about to open his mouth.

“I promised Yeon-sunbae [senior colleague].”

“You promised Yeon Do-hee…? Why did you make such a promise?”

“She said I’d be more visible because I’m taller, so she gave me a penalty and left.”

And then a gentle smile spread across his lips.

The writer’s eyes lit up when he saw this.

‘This could be a good story?!’

It’s not necessarily true that you have to be funny in entertainment.

Sometimes it can be touching, and sometimes it can make you feel unexpected and amazing emotions.

Besides, aren’t these the main characters of a romance movie who are appearing now!

Looking at it, they seemed to be on very good terms, and if they could capture this chemistry, it seemed like a very good picture would come out.

“Ah. It wasn’t a serious thing, it was just a joke. It seems like my senior is waiting for me to go far away on purpose. It seems like she’s being considerate because she’s more famous than me.”

“Ah… Come to think of it, another team said that Yeon Do-hee also moved faster than filming. That’s why.”

“Yes. And well… it’s true that I’m taller than my senior, right?”

The smile that he gave was mischievous.

“The two of you are so heartwarming. It’s the first time I’ve seen a team that cares about each other like this. Even in a competition program.”

“My senior takes care of me so much, so I have to repay her.”

“So when are you going to move?”

“Hmm… Maybe soon?”

The reason why Yeon-woo was stalling for time was simple.

There was also the reason he explained to the writer, but of course, he was aware that he had to give himself a handicap.

‘Since I have additional abilities, it’s not really a fair competition for my senior.’

Eyes filled with longing, and an enchanting voice that is hard to escape once you hear it.

In addition, there is the worship for the forgotten god and the dignity of the god that is derived from it.

These abilities are perfect for attracting people’s attention just by standing still.

Yeon Do-hee also has her own unique aura and presence, of course…

‘There’s no reason to win by using cheat keys.’

Yeon-woo did not forget his original purpose.

This entertainment show is not really about competing and winning.

‘The main character, my senior, should shine more, of course.’

It’s a movie made with a two-top protagonist system as it is a romance, but the emotional line that runs through the beginning and end of the movie follows Yeon Do-hee’s.

It’s a two-top protagonist, but Yeon Do-hee’s portion is a little higher.

The most beautiful days are the story of Shin Yeo-won.

So, the person who should be getting more attention is obviously that side, right?

And.

‘Good people should be rewarded.’

Yeon Do-hee, who was cheerful and kind throughout the filming.

A good person who is completely different from the dark people who are different on the outside and inside.

Such a joke-like request from Yeon Do-hee is not difficult.

Kindness should be repaid with kindness.

Repayment should always be thorough.

“I think I should move slowly.”

Yeon-woo, who had been standing still in an inconspicuous place, began to move.

*

Of course, there are people who stand out even if they are in a corner and inconspicuous.

That was also the case for Yeon-woo.

The number of people who had been watching Yeon-woo and the camera since they first appeared, wondering what it was, began to increase as the time Yeon-woo stayed in that spot increased.

It’s not like someone deliberately,

‘There’s a celebrity over there!’

had told them.

The change in the people who had been glancing at it once in a while, wondering what it was, did not take long.

“Huh. Isn’t that him over there? Him?”

Eyes naturally turn to things that are pretty and handsome.

The steps of the students who were walking and talking with their friends without thinking naturally slowed down.

Their gaze was fixed on one side.
