Seol Ji Oh was in a conversation with the distribution company representative. As it seemed like they were having a serious conversation, Yeo Woon hesitated around them. Only after the distribution company representative left did she approach Seol Ji Oh.
“Seol…”
“Mr. Ji Oh!”
Yeo Woon looked at the woman who suddenly entered Seol Ji Oh’s side.
It was Go Hyun Ah. She let her long hair fall naturally and wore a white blouse and blue jeans.
Yeo Woon was a bit surprised by Go Hyun Ah’s appearance.
She hadn’t realized she was that pretty.
“Mr. Ji Oh. It’s truly an honor to be filming together.”
“Yes, it’s an honor for me as well.”
“Let’s do our best!”
Go Hyun Ah extended her hand as if to shake hands. After a moment of hesitation, Seol Ji Oh took her hand so as not to make her feel embarrassed. Go Hyun Ah gave a light smile.
A smile that made even onlookers feel good. Yeo Woon momentarily watched the two before deciding she should also say hello and approached them.
“Seol Ji Oh!”
At Yeo Woon’s voice, Seol Ji Oh turned around and smiled at her. Yeo Woon also greeted Go Hyun Ah standing next to him.
“Hello, I’m Yeo Woon.”
“Yes.”
Go Hyun Ah smiled back in response, and then turned her body towards Seol Ji Oh.

“We’re going to Macao tomorrow, did you pack your luggage?”
“…No, not yet.”
Yeo Woon felt strange. Go Hyun Ah had merely responded to her greeting.
She was expecting at least a courteous response, such as “Yes, I am soandso”, or “Nice to meet you”. Yeo Woon tilted her head slightly.
Did she not know that we were costars?
Seol Ji Oh also seemed to sense something was off and glanced at Yeo Woon. Yeo Woon smiled as if to say it was okay and spoke again to Go Hyun Ah.
“I, Go Hyun…”
“Aren’t you excited? Because of the casino scene, I’ve been practicing card games a lot.”
Yeo Woon frowned. This time she didn’t even finish calling her name. As if she didn’t see Yeo Woon, Go Hyun Ah continued to speak, looking at Seol Ji Oh.
Was my voice too soft?
Then Seol Ji Oh called Go Hyun Ah and pulled Yeo Woon to his side.
“Miss Go Hyun Ah.”
“Yes?”
“This is Miss Yeo Woon, the actress who plays the role of ‘Cha Yeon Ju’ this time.”
“Ah……”
Only then did Go Hyun Ah look at Yeo Woon. After a brief moment of scanning Yeo Woon from head to toe, Go Hyun Ah spoke with an apologetic expression.
“I’m sorry, Miss Yeo Woon. I thought you were part of Mr. Ji Oh’s staff.”
Her expression seemed truly apologetic.

“You might be right. But Ms. Hyun Ah, my name is Yeo Woon.”
“Oh, Woon! I’m sorry.”
And then Go Hyun Ah held Yeo Woon’s hand tightly.
“I’ll remember it for sure. Ms. Yeo Woon!”
Yeo Woon was surprised at Go Hyun Ah’s extremely kind action.
“Yes. Thank you. I’m looking forward to working with you.”
“Me too. But you two… were you originally acquainted?”
Instead of Go Hyun Ah’s question, Seol Ji Oh answered.
“We are friends.”
“Oh, really? Wow…”
Go Hyun Ah looked at Yeo Woon as if it was fascinating.
“How is the casting next to each other…”
Just as Go Hyun Ah was about to continue her sentence, the host held up the microphone and announced the next schedule.
“We will have a whole script reading shortly, so please move to the 2nd floor.”
The schedule for today was not over yet.
After the test, a full script reading was scheduled. It was an event where all the movierelated personnel, the director, and the cast all gathered in one place and officially revealed the movie ‘Hwasal’ to the press.
Seol Ji Oh, Yeo Woon, and Go Hyun Ah all moved to the second floor with slightly nervous hearts.
On the second floor, there were tables where the actors could sit in a round shape, and in the back, places were prepared for the press, production companies, distributors, etc.
Yeo Woon took her seat where her name was written.

It was a seat facing Seol Ji Oh. This was Yeo Woon’s first public script reading, so she looked around nervously.
Seol Ji Oh was sitting in his seat, reading the script, and Go Hyun Ah was busy greeting the actors as soon as she came up to the second floor.
When everyone took their seats, Director Byun Ju Ho picked up the microphone. The heavy presence of Director Byun Ju Ho filled the room.
“Yes, nice to meet you. I am Byun Ju Ho, in charge of the script and directing of the movie ‘Hwasal.’ ‘Hwasal’ will be a bit different from my previous films. I have strived to capture the popularity that many people have said was lacking in my films… Nonetheless, I will not let go of my Byun Ju Hostyle rhetoric. Please look forward to it a lot. Now, then! Before the reading, I will introduce the actors who will lead ‘Hwasal.'”
Director Byun Ju Ho called the actors’ names one by one. The start was Seol Ji Oh.
As Seol Ji Oh, who got up from his seat, greeted, a loud applause broke out, and the camera flash went off from the reporters’ seats.
Seol Ji Oh, who shyly smiled at the hot reaction, picked up the microphone and opened his mouth.
