Chapter 147 < Vicious Murder (5) >
Dont act like that again.
But it turned out well, didnt it?
Maybe, but it was like cutting my own flesh.
I cant help it. Theres sothing wrong with this thing.
Yeon Seo tapped his Adams apple with his index finger. Judging by their reactions, they had a rough idea of what was going on, so he didnt bother to hide it.
Itll be fine once so ti passes.
And if he caught the culprit maybe? He couldnt be sure. It was all because of that one request
Park Seunghwan whispered, Is he always like that? So frustrating. Lim Seunghyun sighed in response.
Hasnt it been long enough?
Anyway, thats the situation. Lets start filming tomorrow, okay?
He ignored the people who told him to rest and insisted on filming right away.
Why do you look like that?
Uh never mind. Jaeho and I are going out. Take a break.
Yes. Sorry about today.
The filming was delayed, and the money ca out of Yeon Seos pocket. He had to do what the investor said, even if he was unhappy. Park Seunghwan and Kim Jaeho, the director, left with gloomy faces, and Lim Seunghyun and Lee Taegyeom remained in the room.
Are you okay?
What could be wrong?
Yeon Seo clicked his tongue. He didnt expect to sync with it even without trying. Was it because the beta was an old model? It was quick to find mories, but it was troubleso when they popped up like this.
No, dont rush.
He felt worse ntally when he was impatient. He clenched the blanket.
Yeon Seo returned to the set right after a day off. Everyone he passed by asked how he was, and he was fine at first, but it got annoying as it continued.
How was the scene yesterday?
Lim Seunghyun, who followed him, answered.
Weve reported it to the police for now.
Good job.
But we cant stop it from spreading.
Yeon Seo sighed, knowing that. It was a small world, full of rumors. He was able to handle it as a condition problem when it happened during National Bird. It was after he went to the ergency room. But if it happened more than once, people would get suspicious.
(Mother) Yeon Seo, are you feeling okay?
Just like now. He had to be careful because his mother was a powerful person in this industry.
Its already spread.
Is it the vice president?
Yeon Seo nodded and replied. He said it was nothing, but he didnt know if Choi Yujin would let it go or not.
I only need my brother and grandmother to know this.
The more people knew, the more headache he had. And his grandfathers interest was not good these days. He felt his headache getting worse as he thought about it.
Hey, you collapsed. Are you okay?
Then, Kang Cheonhee, who he beca friends with while filming, sat next to Yeon Seo. He was supposed to film a scene with him yesterday, but it was postponed because of him.
Im fine, thats why I ca. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Its okay I dont have anything else to do besides this.
Didnt he hear him say he had an audition today? Yeon Seo looked at Kang Cheonhee curiously.
Why are you looking at like that?
His acting was not bad, and his face was not exceptionally handso, but it had distinctive features that suited any role. Yeon Seo thought he should make a job for him soon and opened the script.
No, its nothing. Lets practice the lines.
Okay.
***
Grandpa has cancer.
Hwang Minjaes words made Park Jiwu drop the fish cake he was eating. The soup splashed and burned his foot.
Ouch, you made lose 700 won.
I need money for the treatnt Is there no way?
Im telling you in advance, I dont have any money.
Im not asking you to lend . And if I ask you to lend money, can you?
Hwang Minjae kicked Park Jiwus calf lightly. Park Jiwu whined.
Can I get compensation for this too?
What is it?
Hwang Min-jae thought of his mother who sighed from the hard work. She complained that they made her work overti but didnt pay her extra. And there was the evidence in her diary, and the company that always ca up before and after her death.
Hey, this is suspicious. Why didnt you do anything? You should have ripped them off.
Is it too late now?
Its not too late.
He didnt take any action back then, overwheld by the grief and loss of his mother, but if he did well
Then lets start with the public opinion.
How?
He started a petition and a one-man protest with the help of Park Ji-woo.
And Hwang Dae-sik was living the sa life, making food for his grandson and picking up trash. He ignored his grandsons plea to go to the hospital.
Is this the right way to live?
He still had regrets in his heart.
I should feed Min-jae sothing delicious.
His grandson was busy these days. He didnt show up at his usual part-ti job, and he didnt help him with his work sotis. He wasnt angry that he didnt help. He was just worried about what he was doing.
He went to the big supermarket that he never went to for his grandson and heard a familiar voice.
Please sign this!
His grandson, who bravely ran out to raise money for his grandfathers treatnt when he should have been focusing on his studies in his senior year of high school, was there.
Why is he there
He rembered that Hwang Min-jaes mother died in an unjust accident. Could it be he was demanding compensation. Hwang Dae-sik hid behind the wall and secretly watched his grandsons actions.
Hey, is it going well?
No.
Tomorrow, the kids from the next class will help you.
Really?
And there were many friends with his grandson. Wasnt he blocking his grandsons bright future with his illness?
Jun-ho
Hwang Dae-sik thought of his son who died before him as he looked at his smiling grandson.
He gave up on his son, but his grandson didnt give up on him. And that was sothing that an adult, a guardian, should have done.
I sent Jun-ho away to lighten my burden.
It wasnt because he was poor, but because he was tired of living and didnt want to go alone.
When he opened his eyes in the ergency room of the hospital, he felt relieved that he had survived. He vowed never to make that choice again.
He didnt think of his son who was lying next to him then. His life was the only thing that mattered. He felt sick with guilt as he thought of that. His sons coughing sound grew louder in his ears.
(Cough Dad)
Hwang Dae-sik clenched his fist and turned around with a determined look.
He asked his grandson casually when he ca back from the protest.
Is it going well?
Yes! I think I can raise the money for the treatnt soon!
Isnt that the money your mother worked hard for? You should use it for yourself
This is for .
Hwang Min-jae frowned. He was afraid that he would get angry again, so he quietly scooped up so rice and put it in front of his grandson.
But, did you know?
I know. Who wouldnt know if you make such a fuss.
Anyway, since the response is good, you should go to the hospital first.
He felt a sense of relief as he saw his grandsons expression brighten. Hwang Dae-sik felt a pressure on his body.
(Your grandsons grades are so good. He doesnt even go to the academy)
(Is it him?)
(Yes, with these grades, he could aim for the top universities in Seoul But Min-jae said he would work right after graduation)
(Im also looking for ways to support him in various ways But its not easy.)
He couldnt forget what his horoom teacher said at the parent-teacher conference. Wasnt he holding his grandson back with his old age and illness?
Okay I got it.
Hwang Min-jae smiled broadly at Hwang Dae-siks calm answer. It seed that holding him back had worked, as his stubborn grandfather had quieted down.
anwhile, Hwang Dae-sik watched his grandson stuffing his mouth with rice and reaffird his decision.
If he left like this, his grandson would surely be sad. But he thought this was the right thing to do for his future.
Hwang Min-jae was now an adult. He was a young man with a bright path ahead of him. Unlike him and his son, who had no one by their side, he had reliable friends and caring teachers.
Hwang Dae-sik was born in a poor family and lived a hard life. He lost his wife early.
He had a bad health and couldnt do a proper job. His daughter ran away, and his son was so sick that even the hospital wouldnt take him.
He had a hard ti getting any benefits from the country, as if there were too many restrictions.
He had to carry too many burdens for a single person.
I shouldnt be a burden to you
***
Where did it leak from?
Jo Yeon-chul frowned as if he was fed up with the crowd that rushed in. It was well known that Yoo Yeon Seo was filming a movie in this neighborhood, as he had left many photos, and naturally, people who saw the news ca flocking.
Its a good thing that this neighborhood is being redeveloped If not, they would have kept coming.
Of course, that was also one of the reasons why they started filming early. Yoo Yeon Seo looked at Cha Yoon-ho, who was babbling next to him.
Why are you here, Cha secretary? Its burdenso for the director.
Im supposed to serve the director, but I have to obey the vice president if he orders .
Haah
Yoo Yeon Seo rubbed his forehead and sighed.
Its nothing, why
Parents are all like that. Theyre quick to act when it cos to their children.
He was as good at flattering as Yoo Gunmin. But it was strange that he was so devoted to soone who wasnt even his son. Co to think of it, he had only investigated his maternal relatives No way, that cant be. Yoo Yeon Seo shook his head vigorously.
So, why did the vice president send you here?
Dont you know, Cha secretary?
I know that the director collapsed while acting.
Thats right.
He didnt seem to care much. Ill just say that he was too imrsed in acting. He added.
Is that how you get imrsed?
Huh?
Why, am I so kind of acting god?
Yoo Yeon Seo looked at Park Seung-hwan, who had finished his makeup. The chemistry of acting did vary depending on who the co-star was.
He didnt feel much in Baekho Ship and Evil Spirit. But he felt a good synergy here. He felt so synergy with Jin Suho in Dreaming and Shin Ye-won in National Bird, but Park Seung-hwan was on a different level. He always maintained the atmosphere of Hwang Dae-sik, whether the cara was rolling or not.
I feel sorry for my previous co-stars
He unconsciously recalled the past.
Youre not an acting god, are you?
Hey, dont be like that.
Park Seung-hwan pretended to be coy and Yoo Yeon Seo chuckled. But still There were a lot of them. But there were always crowds like this on the set.
Itll take a long ti to get in the mood.
Yoo Yeon Seo looked at the sky and closed his eyes.
Are you okay today?
Yes, I dont get tired even if I run for a long ti. I have good stamina.
You know thats not what Im talking about.
What are you talking about then?
This guy, hes pretending not to know. Park Seung-hwan finally raised both hands.
Lets do well in the last scene.
Yes.
