Godsent Top Star [EN]: Chapter 169

169. Change is Innocent (1)

2022.04.18.

“Wow… you really wake up at exactly four thirty.”

“I’m glad I came early just in case.”

I heard they came for an interview.

I thought they usually do it during quiet times.

“I also have something to give to Yeon-woo quickly. I asked the manager and came early. I’m glad I did…….”

Despite looking very tired, everyone’s expressions were friendly.

And they were full of curiosity.

“First, take this.”

“If it’s a selfie camera, I received one yesterday…….”

“No. We were wrong.”

The selfie camera they handed over looked different from yesterday.

“It seems like ordinary image stabilization won’t work. This is called a gimbal [a pivoted support that allows rotation about a single axis], and it has a function that stabilizes sudden movements or changes in direction. The downside is that it’s a bit large and heavy…….”

“Ah.”

Something comes to mind.

“By any chance, yesterday’s workout……?”

“Yes. That video looked great, but it was too shaky…….”

He sounds very disappointed.

“It will be less shaky if you use that. But do you go out for exercise so early every morning? It seems like it since you woke up today too…….”

“Yes. I’ve always been in the habit of doing so.”

The mornings of shamans are very busy.

My mother, Madam Kang’s, forceful teachings have been thoroughly ingrained in my body for over twenty years.

“Ah…… so that’s why you have such a great body……?”

The PD muttered and gestured to the staff.

A quick interview corner was quickly set up.

The content was mainly about what happened yesterday.

After the short interview, the PD spoke.

“Come to think of it, you seem to be very used to the camera. I was surprised again after checking yesterday’s clip.”

“Is there any problem?”

“No, no, no. It’s not that…… Usually, people are so awkward that most of their actions are unnatural, as if they’ve eaten an ‘awkwardness fruit’ [meaning they are extremely awkward], but Yeon-woo is the complete opposite, so they told me to check it out.”

“……?”

“Are you perhaps in your second life…… did you regress [reincarnate or travel back in time]…… or something like that, they told me to ask.”

“……?”

Second life?

Regression?

Those are very unfamiliar words.

Come to think of it, the PD seems to use a lot of strange words.

Awkwardness fruit, even.

It’s the first time I’ve heard of such a fruit.

Seeing that Yeon-woo doesn’t understand, the PD quickly changed the subject.

“I meant that you adapted much faster than we expected. There are hardly any people who forget the existence of the camera from the first day. Other actors were awkward at first…….”

Well, anyone would be like that if they lived for over 20 years with eyes watching them 24 hours a day.

‘It was quite nice to be able to turn off the camera when showering.’

In the main house, Madam Kang’s power prevented most evil spirits from even approaching, but it wasn’t the same outside.

So much so that using exorcism charms to suppress and eliminate ghosts became the most familiar thing to do.

“Anyway, thanks to you, we had a lot to work with from the first day.”

“Is it okay? It’s my first time doing this kind of program, so I don’t know if I did well.”

“You did very well! There’s nothing to cut out, nothing to cut out…… Sometimes, we edit so much that we worry about not having enough to use, but…….”

I guess that’s a good thing?

Park Dae-il, who filmed the 7 million promise a while ago, was also like that.

-Crazy, crazy. There’s nothing to throw away…….

After worrying like that, he eventually,

-Let’s just use it all?!

He even made that decision.

After saying goodbye and the production team left, asking for good videos today as well.

Yeon-woo’s routine started again.

“Hello. Today, the camera is a little different. It was very shaky yesterday, but it’s said that it will be less shaky today. They gave me this to use.”

After deliberately shaking it and playing the video, it was definitely superior in performance to the selfie camera received yesterday.

“It’s definitely more stable with this. It’s good because it prevents the composition from being distorted due to less movement. It’s a bit heavy, but it’s not bad. Um…… it’s amazing. There’s even something like this.”

Similar daily routine.

The big change in that routine was when the day of the photoshoot approached.

*

“Hello.”

The selfie camera turned on in the dark van.

Now, greeting with the camera is very natural.

“Today, I have a slightly different schedule. Um…… there will be a photoshoot.”

The reason why I’ve been steadily exercising, squeezing out moisture from my body, and shaping my lines.

It’s all for today’s photoshoot.

Because the client’s request was clear.

I also received intensive care at the shop after exercising for today.

The atmosphere at the filming location was not bad.

No, rather, it was clear that they had a lot of favor for this side.

“Yeon-woo, the atmosphere is good? What is it? Is it because of yesterday’s thing?”

“That?”

“It aired with you yesterday.”

“Ah.”

Whether manager Lee Gyu-han was right, the atmosphere pouring out to Yeon-woo, who greeted them, was very friendly.

Thanks to that, or whatever, the permission for reality filming was also very smooth.

“I had so much fun watching with you yesterday.”

“Thank you.”

“Is that a camera for shooting reality?”

“Yes.”

“Ah. Then you have to film well. It’s going to be completely different from now on, so don’t miss it?”

The makeup artist smiled confidently.

Sure enough, the makeup was finished not long after.

When I opened my eyes after the last brushstroke.

“Our teacher’s potential is crazy today.”

“Ha. I think this is a masterpiece.”

Admiration burst out from the surroundings.

As the confident artist said, it was a tremendous compliment.

“Wow…… Yeon-woo, you had this kind of vibe too…….”

Even the manager, Lee Gyu-han, said that.

“I told you, this face is a face of a thousand faces.”

What on earth is it like?

Noticing Yeon-woo’s curious expression, the artist turned the chair around.

In the full-length mirror with lights, there was an unfamiliar human sitting.

“……?”

What is it.

That doesn’t look like my face.

“Yeon-woo, how can you be surprised looking at your own face!”

The artist burst into laughter as if excited.

“But I understand. I was a little surprised by my own skills too.”

Staff who came to watch on both sides of the artist, who shrugged her shoulders, saying it was a masterpiece, shook their heads and nodded.

Certainly, it was amazing.

‘Why does Madam Kang’s face show up on my face……?’

Is blood thicker than water?

Deeply shaded eyes.

A dark red shadow that seemed to have spread around it.

It could have looked like an excessive clown makeup, but the luxurious color prevented it.

The hairstyle, which was deliberately swept to one side, created a neurotic yet seductive atmosphere.

The point was the glitter and cubic crystals placed on the dark red eyeshadow that came down to the undereye area.

I’ve had makeup done several times so far, but this atmosphere was completely new.

“Crazy.”

“Right? Crazy, right?”

“You completely tore it up.”

Agreement popped out from everywhere to the artist’s well-founded self-praise.

That was the starting point.

It was when the debate about Yeon-woo’s image suddenly began.

“I was worried for nothing. Honestly, Kang Yeon-woo’s image was too innocent, so I wondered if it would work.”

“That’s right. There’s an image associated with the mask. Neat, sincere, and *sundaeng sundaeng* [pure and innocent]?”

“Uh-huh. I’m a little different. Doesn’t a more rigid side suit you better? The devoted side too. If you fasten a three-button suit with a cuff spring and tighten your tie to the neck, it seems like it would be ascetic?”

“No~! Wait a minute. What are you all talking about? You’re still young, why are you putting on a suit? You’re still fresh and young, so if you put on bright colored knit tops with ankle-revealing slacks, it would be bright and nice. Pastel colors would be good. Warm tone colors.”

Words that come and go like compliments.

The person involved had no thoughts, but they seemed serious.

“*Sundaeng* [pure and innocent], I tell you?”

“Ascetic.”

“Didn’t you see the *dangham* [sweetness]? It came out completely *sangkum* [freshly/refreshing].”

Watching their untimely dispute, Yeon-woo thought.

‘Ah. So that’s why we need to pursue diversity.’

It was a new realization.

This is because the image they were talking about overlapped exactly with the image of the program Yeon-woo appeared in.

Fortunately, the voice of the bewildered makeup artist intervened.

“Aah, no? What are you guys talking about? You’re all wrong! How can a fixed image be possible with this face? Look. It has a clear color and suits any atmosphere like a charm? Does the makeup I’m doing now not suit you?”

Of course, it didn’t help much.

“It suits you.”

“It suits you!”

“Yes. It suits you, right? A mask that digests all the images you guys said and even digests this atmosphere is rare. Who would have known that this atmosphere would come out? Mikael caught the concept perfectly.”

“Writer Mikael is originally a bit like that.”

“Ah, but if it wasn’t for the teacher’s skills, this atmosphere wouldn’t have come out?”

“Of course. Of course. Actually, I was worried at first because Mikael was so worried? But as I watched, I got a sense of it. Look. The result is great. Mikael really worries for nothing. If Mikael sees this, he’ll say he worried for nothing?”

I don’t know what they’re doing sitting someone down.

Whether they did or not, the others seemed convinced by the artist’s words and nodded.

“This atmosphere from that *sundaeng* [pure and innocent] face…… Honestly, I can’t imagine it.”

“It suits you quite well. This will definitely be a hot topic.”

“We didn’t even get a sense of it…… It’s amazing how that clear and neat atmosphere can become like this.”

Looking at their reactions, I could see why Kwon Seong-hyun chose this photoshoot.

Diversity.

It seemed that the part that Kwon Seong-hyun had emphasized several times matched exactly with this concept.

‘I didn’t know that intense meant this.’

This photoshoot was none other than perfume.

-Perfume? Why perfume all of a sudden……?

Perfume.

What an unfamiliar name.

Honestly, perfume was a very unfamiliar dimension to Yeon-woo, who didn’t even apply skin lotion properly.

For reference, I’ve been steadily applying skin and lotion since I started getting managed.

-It’s a very famous luxury line. Order-made is the main focus, but they also release ready-made lines for the public once a quarter. The offer we received this time is for the product that will be launched next season.

It was a very unfamiliar world.

There are people who order and use perfume…….

-It’s the best offer we’ve received. The timing is good too. We have to row when the water comes in [seize the opportunity].

Kwon Seong-hyun’s smile, who smiled brightly, shone brightly.

-And most of all…… the chief perfumer of this brand has fallen for Yeon-woo.
