"He signed with what?" J-Slick exclaid, nearly falling off of his chair.
"Dreamy Entertainnt, sir," his assistant said, casting his gaze to the ground.
"What kind of company is that? I've never heard of them."
"They're an older company," his assistant said.
J-Slick clutched his fists and banged them on the table, causing his very creamy coffee to spill over the glass material. "Do they have that much money?"
His assistant scratched the back of his head. "I'm unsure, sir. From what I've read, they're on the verge of bankruptcy."
J-Slick's face grew hot with every revelation. "Then, why?" he exclaid. "Why did Zeno Han sign with an unknown company?"
His assistant could do nothing but purse his lips. J-Slick sighed and leaned against his chair, massaging the bridge of his nose.
"Well, you already know," he sighed. "I've never felt so humiliated in my life. I swallowed my pride just to get him on our side, but he took it for granted."
"Make Zeno regret his decision."
His assistant let out a soft sigh before nodding. "Yes, sir. I'll make sure to do that."
anwhile, the other companies that also tried to recruit him were devastated. Zeno Han blew them off for such a lousy company. They couldn't understand such a decision.
In Moonrise, Joohyuk still couldn't get over what had happened. He could still rember the conversation he had with Zeno.
He chuckled to himself during their eting, making his workmates feel worried for him.
"Dreamy," he muttered, his shoulders shaking from his chuckles. "He signed with Dreamy."
"D—do you know them, sir?" one scout hesitantly asked. "Are they an up-and-coming company we need to be wary of?"
Joohyuk shook his head. "Not even close."
"Oh," they muttered, beginning to feel confused. "Then, why did Zeno Han sign with them?"
Joohyuk was on the verge of tears. "I don't know!" he exclaid, standing from his seat.
"That's the worst part of all of this—I don't understand why Zeno Han would pick Dreamy Entertainnt out of every company out there?"
"Are they the worst?" another employee asked.
"In terms of treatnt, no," Joohyuk said.
"In fact, they might be the greatest at that," he muttered. "That bastard, Bobby, is too kind for his own good."
He said the last two statents to himself so none of the other employees were able to hear him.
"However, in terms of achievent," he continued in a loud voice. "They're the worst. Being so long in the industry, you would think they would have so notable works. But, they have none of it."
The other employees began discussing among themselves, wondering what kind of trait they had for Zeno to choose them.
With that, Joohyuk sat and shook his head before leaning against the table. "Zeno Han, you are one confusing man."
Of course, the internet was also quick to join in on the discussion. 'Pop Flop,' a pop culture account based in South Korea with over a million followers, was quick to post the news.
'The Irrelevant Extra Zeno Han Signs with Dreamy Entertainnt.'
- He really beca irrelevant. What kind of company is that?
- This is such a hater account. Does Pop Flop even like anyone?
- They like A-list celebrities. Zeno is D-list, at most. Heck, do we even call him an actor when he's only been an extra?
- @Dreamy is their account na. They have 800 followers. I have even more than that.
- I like Zeno after watching him co out of the fire in that one livestream from Rex. However, I don't think this was a good decision.
- Maybe he doesn't want to beco famous at all.
- Eyy, who doesn't want to be famous? Maybe he was given a huge signing fee. That's what most new artists are blinded by.
- Good luck to his future career, well, the lack of it.
- I'm going to support Zeno no matter what!
- We don't even know how old he is!
- Well, the good thing about him being signed is that we'll know so of his background.

As Zeno's na beca a hot topic once more, he arrived at a beat-up building. It was amidst a pretty good area in Apgujeong, one of the trendiest neighborhoods in Gangnam. However, this particular building had a suspicious exterior.
For one, it was made of concrete blocks, and it hasn't been smoothed out and painted. There were three floors in total, and on the top floor, a huge LED sign with the words 'Strip Casino' shone brightly.
anwhile, the second floor had a dusty tarpaulin that read 'Heaven Massage.'
"Oh, there you are," Bobby exclaid, coming out of the door. "You should have told us you were here. Co, co."
Bobby led him inside, treating him like a VIP. The interior wasn't any better than the exterior. It was exactly as it looked—maybe even worse. There were cigarette butts in the hallway leading to the first room.
On one side, there seed to be a loan shark company, and just right in front of it was Dreamy Entertainnt. Zeno couldn't hide his smile. It seed he really ca to the right place.
Bobby opened the door, and much to Zeno's surprise, the inside of their office was actually pleasant. It was clean and decorated well. It was very simple, though, but compared to the rest of the building, it appeared the most decent.
Zeno looked around for a mont before stopping in his tracks when he noticed the other people inside the room. Standing to the side was Moby, and on the small couch were two pretty ladies who were looking at him with wide eyes.
"I can't believe it," the one with the shorter hair said. "You actually recruited Zeno Han."
Bobby smirked proudly. "Zeno, et our current artists. This is Sarang," he gestured to the one with full bangs and long hair.
"And this is Leni," he pointed to the short-haired girl.
The three of them exchanged polite bows before Bobby introduced their very new artist.
"And, of course, this is Zeno Han."
Bobby opened his arms wide. "Welco to Dreamland!"
