After the Orchessi Halloween Festival ended, videos taken by the audience started to appear on YouTube. The Orchessi channel also uploaded so videos, from the contest participants to the performances.
It wasnt a very famous festival, but thanks to the sponsorship of Monster Co. and the attendance of Seo-jun, it even made the news in Korea. There were people who were waiting for the videos and reviews.
[Title: Orchessi Halloween Festival Review]
Im a student studying in Paris. I went to Orchessi because I heard that Seo-jun might co. There were more people than I expected. Anyway, I stopped by the Monster Co. booth, but Seo-jun wasnt there. I couldnt find him even if I tried, because everyone was wearing masks and animal costus
But the festival was fun. There was an event called Monster Contest, and everyone did well. Especially, the werewolf who ca up last After watching it, I realized that it was probably Seo-jun.
The people who read the review looked for the werewolf in the YouTube videos. The most viewed video was the one uploaded by Orchessi.
[Monster Contest Winner! Number 13, Werewolf Transformation.]
-Wow, amazing. Compared to the other videos, hes short, so he doesnt seem like an adult.
-He looks like a kid. But did he do modern dance or sothing? Hes really good.
-He used the lights, smoke, and shadows well. If the smoke was thin, there wouldnt be any shadows and it would have been la, but the weather was on his side.
-I feel like Ive experienced sothing like this before. Is it dj vu?
=I feel like I know. When Seo-jun doesnt show up, so kid becos famous and thats Seo-jun himself
The Orchessi video was fixed at one point, so people looked for other videos. They were shaky, but each video had different parts that were well captured, and soon a post titled [The Order of Watching the Werewolf Videos] appeared.
-But you cant see his face because of the wolf mask. Is it really Seo-jun?
-Who else has that level of acting skill at that age?
-I dont know. Maybe another genius.
Seo-jun or not, the controversy reached Cocoa Entertainnt. Eun Chan sighed at the constant ringing of the phone and headed to Seo-juns house.
The couple and Seo-jun, who were busy sorting out the gifts and luggage they bought in Paris, greeted Eun Chan.
This is uncles gift!
Sli?
It looks like uncle!
It was a stuffed animal that they bought at the Halloween festival, not a product of Monster Co. Eun Chan, who was playing with the soft sli stuffed animal, sighed and said.
Didnt you say it was a family trip?
Yeah! It was so fun!
Eun Chan couldnt help but smile at Seo-juns sparkling eyes. Well. Yeah. As long as it was fun.
Sis. Can you give the videos you took?
Do you want to upload them on the fan cafe?
I thought it was just a small festival, but if Seo-jun went, its a legend.
Eun Chan smiled bitterly and turned on his laptop. Eun Hye showed him the videos.
Why are there three videos?
This one is taken by Seo-juns friends sister, this one is taken by his friends parents. This one is taken by Min Jun. They have different parts that are well captured in each video. I thought it would be better to edit and upload them since were uploading them anyway.
Hmm. That makes sense.
Eun Chan watched the three videos. They were short, so he could see them quickly, and they were as Eun Hye said.
Got it. Ill have to go to the company and do it.
Eun Chan returned to the company and handed over the videos to the PR team. The staff gathered and made the best edited version. At the end of the video, they added a few photos of Seo-jun taken at the festival.
The video was uploaded to the fan cafe right away.
-Wow! It was Seo-jun after all!
-Hes cool even without showing his face!
-The pictures are so cute too! Is that also a Monster Co. outfit?
And as soon as Seo-juns video was uploaded, articles started to pop up. Seo-jun and his parents, who had finished sorting out their luggage and were watching the video uploaded by Cocoa Entertainnt, marveled at the lightning speed.
Theyre really fast.
[Actor Seo-jun, attends Orchessi Halloween Festival!]
[Family trip and Monster Contest Winner!]
[Real Werewolf?! Actor Seo-jun!]
-As expected I knew it.
-He really did well. He looked like he lived with wolves for years.
-Im a zookeeper (wolf handler) and the shadow in the acting is totally wolf-like. How do you do that? I think I cant do it as well as him.
-Seo-jun is good at both dragon and wolf. Its not easy to do sothing like this

After the Halloween festival, everyone returned to their normal lives. Peaceful everyday life. But this year, sohow, it was more noisy after the festival.
Charlie! Charlie!
The door of the restaurant opened with a bang. The vampire boss who ran the wine shop ca in with a surprised face.
The restaurant, which had been deserted by tourists, was filled with Orchessi citizens again. They all knew each other, so they just picked up their forks.
Charlie, who was smiling while looking at the photos he took with Jun on his phone, raised his head at the sound of his na.
What? Uncle?
Your friend! The one who was wearing the werewolf costu!
At the ntion of Seo-jun, Charlie jumped up. Charlies dad, who was wondering what was going on, ca out to see.
Jun?
Yeah. Your friend Jun!
The people who were eating also rembered the kid with the wolf head who was with Charlie throughout the Halloween festival. He was a kind and cute kid. They clearly rembered the performance he showed at the contest.
Didnt he do really well?
Yeah! I didnt know the kid could do that well.
Dont you think hell be a great actor if he acts?
Thats right
Hes a Hollywood star, you know!?
?
Everyone stopped their forks that they were bringing to their mouths at the mans words. Did I just hear what I heard, the people blinked and looked at the man.
Did you drink wine in the morning?
Go ho and get drunk.
Before Charlies dad, who hated drunkenness, could open his mouth, the custors opened their mouths first.
No, really!
The man with a flushed face insisted, but everyone shook their heads. Charlies dad, who was about to say get out in a quiet voice, didnt make a sound.
The custors looked at Charlies dad. They were puzzled by his smiling face. Charlie opened his mouth proudly.
You just found out? I knew it from the festival. That Jun is a Hollywood star!
Really? It was true?!
I have his autograph here!
Charlie showed them the photo on his phone. [To my werewolf friend, Charlie. Seo-jun Ri] The man who was doubtful of the autograph scread.
Ive never seen a Hollywood actor in my life! He was so close, but I couldnt shake his hand!
The one who was puzzled by the mans agony was the custors.
Charlie. What are you talking about? What did he say then?
The grandfather who gave orange juice to Charlie and Seo-jun asked. Charlie smiled brightly and answered.
Hes a Hollywood actor! The Jin Natra who was in Shadowman! Seo-jun Ri!
What!?
Even those who hadnt seen Shadowman knew that there was a movie called Shadowman. And that it was a huge hit. They all stared at Charlie with wide eyes.
The city hall staff who had been informing them of the progress from behind the stage touched his forehead. He was a Marine fan who had seen everything from Redbone 1 to Assemble 1.
He knew Seo-jun Lee and Jin Natra very well, deep in his bones. Tears blurred his vision.
Im a huge fan! I knew it! I thought he was a great actor! I never thought he would co here.
He saw him right in front of his eyes! Seeing the frustrated staff, one by one, they realized that the little wolf they had seen was a real Hollywood actor.
Last year he was a theater actor and this year hes a Hollywood actor. Im scared of who will co next year.
Will he co again next year?
Whats the na of the movie?
But how did you know, uncle? That Jun is a Hollywood actor!
At Charlies words, they all closed their mouths and looked at the man.
It was on YouTube. The video had Jun being a Hollywood actor and the last contestant of the contest. The views are no joke right now! It also announced our festival. To the whole world!
!
To the whole world! His last words echoed throughout the restaurant. Maybe next year it would be a huge festival. The citizens of Orchesi swallowed their saliva.

Damn assignnt!
Graces family returned to New York and went back to their normal lives. Laura Welton, a high school student, was wringing her head over a writing assignnt.
She had to write a short story, but she hadnt written a single line yet. The screen was blank and the cursor blinked.
Ugh. Co on, brain.
She banged her head on the desk, looking for a good idea, when her sister Grace popped into her head like lightning. Her sister who had gone missing and the two kids who had found her!
Grace!
Yeah?
Can I write a story about you going missing at the festival?
Uh!
Grace, who had been watching television, frowned. Laura begged her.
Ill change the nas and appearances! I have to turn it in by this week!
Hmm.
Ill buy you three New York cheese tarts!
Five!
Okay!
Was money the problem now? Laura smiled brightly and headed to her room, then turned back.
Can I put in Jun and Charlies story?
You have to ask Jun and Charlie for that.
Can you ask them for ?
Two tarts!
Okay!
< My sister is doing an assignnt and shes writing a short story.
< Can Jun and Charlie co out? The Halloween festival story is the motif.
< She said shell change the nas and appearances.
-Charlie: Im fine!
-Jun: too!
-Jun: Can I see it when youre done?
-Charlie: too! Im curious!
Laura watched Grace tapping on her phone and felt relieved. Wasnt there a ti difference overseas? Would they answer if she contacted them now? Should she wait a little longer? The assignnt was due tomorrow!
Grace looked up and looked at Laura.
Sis! Jun and Charlie said they want to see it when youre done!
Okay!
Laura answered in an instant and went back to her room. The notebook screen was blank.
Okay. The female protagonist is a witch and the male protagonist is a werewolf.
Laura wrote down the story in an instant. She added a little bit of imagination to what had actually happened.
A witch who got lost and a werewolf who found her. The ending was also like the Halloween festival, where the witch t her family.
The writing assignnt was over in no ti, as if the previous difficulties were a lie. She felt empty after all the trouble.
A few days after she turned in the assignnt, the writing teacher called Laura. Laura Welton sat in a chair with an awkward face, and the writing teacher, Tyler, smiled kindly and said.
Welton. Do you want to write this as a novel?
Huh?
Its so interesting. I wonder what it would be like if you added so other stories and wrote it as a novel.
Oh. Ive never thought about it, but writing is a bit
She had a hard ti coming up with a short story, let alone a novel. She was in the dark.
Tyler, who saw Laura refusing, hesitated for a mont and opened his mouth.
Then, how about replacing this sesters writing assignnts with this?
Okay!
To get rid of the writing assignnts for now, Laura Welton voluntarily entered the pain of creation.
No. I cant think of anything!
It was hard enough to write a short story, but a novel was harder and harder. She couldnt stretch out the story of finding Mia, and she couldnt think of any other episodes.
She wanted to write a romance novel, but she didnt know how to connect the protagonists and grow their feelings.
Laura Welton read the novels she borrowed from the library and pondered.
The problem is the characters past.
The past would be the start of the event or accident. Laura wrapped her head.
Then, there was a knock on the door. It was Grace. She peeked her head through the open door and opened her mouth.
Sis, do you want to watch TV with ?
TV? What are you doing?
Juns drama. It was on Plus.
At Graces words, Laura Welton looked at the blank notebook screen. She didnt think anything would co out.
Okay, lets cool off.
Laura and Grace sat on the sofa. The opening screen of The Royal Physician filled the TV screen connected to the notebook. They ate snacks from the kitchen and Laura asked.
What kind of drama is it?
There were a lot of comnts saying not to spoil it, so all I know is that its a Korean historical drama.
Really?
The first episode was a scene of a man treating soone. The English subtitles not only had the characters dialogue, but also explained so knowledge that foreigners might not know, making it easy to imrse themselves.
When Laura and Grace were watching The Royal Physician, their parents who had gone out and ca back also joined the drama.
The Welton family forgot about the programs they usually watched and got hooked on The Royal Physician.
