Driving Eom So Yeon to join was not enough, they had also relentlessly demeaned her. They demonized her cautious character, someone who was thoughtful and careful about everything, like a socially inept person with no flexibility.

But still, was Eom So Yeon just silently enduring?

It was clear that there was something between those two.

Seo Jun, who had consistently shown indifference, only listening to the conversation, felt an uncomfortable twist in his chest as he watched So Yeon, who couldn’t say anything.

Tae Seo Jun suddenly intruding in Eom So Yeon’s acting practice, which he had no interest in, was a continuation of his unpleasant feelings.

“Why would people who should know better do this?” Seo Jun asked, his low voice mixing with his long sigh.

“Leaking the script is a violation, and Ms. Eom So Yeon seems to be bothered by it, so let’s stop this.”
“Phew….”
Involuntarily, Tae Seo Jun snickered at the awkward acknowledgment, unnoticed by anyone. But he couldn’t avoid the eyes of Yeodo Soon right in front of him.

You, sir…!

“That’s right, we should protect what needs to be protected! The director’s words are always right!”
Do Soon took advantage of the brief silence to vote for Tae Seo Jun. In other words, it was ‘Tae Seo Jun, fighting! Join Ha, get lost!’.

She couldn’t help but be biased.

As a friend and as a fan, it was clear that they were trying to needle So Yeon again, and she couldn’t just sit and watch them sneering at Tae Seo Jun as well.

“Even though the drama shooting has already started, Ms. Eom So Yeon’s shooting starts from the middle of the work, so there’s still time. I believe there’s always a better way.”
Watching Seo Jun continue to speak, Won Hoo rolled his eyes.

“What’s the director up to?”
Was Tae Seo Jun a person to meddle in other people’s affairs without a second thought? However, Won Hoo, who knew well that he was not a reckless interloper, had a slight expectation in his eyes.

“I don’t know what Ms. Join Ha did in advance, but it means that Representative Gu worried unnecessarily.”
“!”
A scheme?!

The unexpected punch that seemed to strike at the vital points came in so fast that In Ha’s expression twisted instantly.

Even though he didn’t see it with his eyes like Do Soon, Seo Jun heard the faint sound of the wind. A minor response to that, let’s say. Because of this, a sharp current flowed between Seo Jun and In Ha.

“Then, Director Tae should do it!”
Won Hoo, who had alternately scolded the two men on both sides, suddenly covered the sulky atmosphere with a new proposal, as if to say why are you all doing this.

“Since Director Tae is the actual counterpart in the play, there’s nothing better than if he helps Ms. Eom So Yeon with her practice. There would be no worry about script leakage, and it’s about adjusting the lines in advance, so it wouldn’t be bad for Director Tae either.”
Tae Seo Jun never spent his time on other actors. At least until now. Knowing too well about Tae Seo Jun, who was thorough to himself and stingy to others, Won Hoo’s words were just 99% joke and 1% sincerity.

So Yeon, too, did not expect or even imagine such a thing.

It feels good to have someone on your side. Moreover, the emotion was much stronger because Tae Seo Jun was speaking on her behalf. But it seemed unlikely that this man, who is still so cold, would go so far as to offer that.

But what kind of twist is this?

“How about it, Director Tae will do it, right?”
“….”
When Representative Gu asked again as if to confirm, Seo Jun raised his thick eyebrows in silence.

Won Hoo did not miss that his expression was a positive signal.

“Really? Is it really possible?”
“There’s nothing I can’t do.”
“…..!”
At the voice of Seo Jun, which felt like driving a stake, So Yeon, who was startled for a moment, looked at Seo Jun. And at the moment she tried to refuse by moving her lips, Won Hoo intercepted So Yeon’s words.

“As Ms. Eom So Yeon heard, it seems like you need to adjust the practice time with Director Tae in the future…”
Although it was a special case, there was no reason for Won Hoo not to welcome Seo Jun’s decision. He strongly pushed his will, and with his watertight persuasion, So Yeon was pushed to the point where she could no longer refuse.

Thus, the problem of Eom So Yeon’s practice partner was neatly wrapped up.

However, Join Ha, who had ended up like a dog chasing a chicken looking at the roof, expressed her dissatisfaction with her rugged voice and sullen expression.

“Isn’t Director Tae already in the drama shooting? The lead actor wouldn’t have time to care about supporting roles.”
“Well, that’s strictly my business, I don’t see why you need to worry about it.”

Seo Jun couldn’t help but let out a small smirk.
