The buzz surrounding the drama "The Only Way" reached its peak as the production company dropped its teaser release. Social media platforms were flooded with countless articles and posts as the fans shared their sentiments and excitement over the drama.

One factor that contributed to this buzz was the issue between Sooyun and Minjae. People were eager to know their performances, to see who was better.

Of course, to some, Sooyun, who had more experience, would no doubt do better. They just wanted to know whether Minjae was also skilled despite being just an extra.

After all, he still wasn’t known to the public.

It was already quarter to 4 in the afternoon. Minjae was alone in his small apartment. He was sitting on his bed while his old laptop was in front of him. There were a few packets of chips and canned sodas lying on his side.

Tonight, after watching the teaser, he will just slack off and watch movies. It was his rest day today, and he was determined to really rest and do nothing the whole time.

Minjae respectfully declined the invitation from Director Yejun yesterday. He didn’t want to risk his chance of running into Sooyun. Their interactions were already enough the last time.

As the clock struck exactly 4 pm, Minjae refreshed Global Studios’ official UsTube Channel. The teaser was uploaded just seconds ago, but views have still begun to skyrocket.

"Are you ready?"

With one deep breath, Minjae clicked the play button before pressing the full screen.

"Honorable, Citizens..." The screen opened with a man at the center stage, speaking in front of the people at the Blue House.

"Today I am saddened to announce the most tragic incident that hit our nation..."

As the voice cut out, the scene blackened only to be opened with a dimly lit street with the post lights turning off and on each second. Loud rain poured heavily on the ground, the droplets of it creating a serene sound in the background.

The sound of Sooyun’s heavy breathing soon filled the scene as he sprinted through the narrow alleys of the street. His dirtied police uniform was glowing under the streetlights as he chased an unknown figure.

"Stop!" Sooyun’s character shouted out loud. His voice echoed despite the pouring of the rain. Then, the camera panned to show a shadowy figure dashing ahead, without stopping as if it didn’t hear Sooyun’s words.

"If you don’t stop right now..."

A montage of cinematic shots quickly followed the scene — people protesting, news of people’s deaths, and reporters panicking. The audio in the background also changed, becoming much more intense and fast.

Then at the height of the sound, the screen suddenly turned black as the music stopped.

A second of silence ensued before a new scene played out.

A police woman showed up to the scene with shakng hands as she held unto her phone.

"Sir, we just received a suspicious tip-off." That was her last words before she fainted in the rain"

"Why is this happening?" The scene shifted to Sooyun in the interrogation room.

"Why does it have to be you?"

He was looking at the camera as if he was facing someone he despised. At his back was a large board with mapped out crime pictures while a red string connected them.

"Cover it up..." an unknown voice of a man sounded in the background as Sooyun’s scene continued to play.

"Why won’t they open an investigation?" The female lead showed up on the screen for a brief moment before it came back to Sooyun for a second.

"Doesn’t it seem odd?" People running while being chased played out. Then all of a sudden, a scene of Sooyun slamming his fist on the table, showed.

"Tell me the truth! Why did you do it?" Sooyun’s voice rang out, filled with anguish and desperation.

Suddenly, the screen transitioned to Minjae’s part, giving more emotional scenes to the teaser.

The camera zoomed in on a dimmed prison cell. Minjae was sitting alone on the cold floor. His back was leaning against the white-painted walls, white his hands desperately clung to the bar of the cell.

"Why did innocent people have to get affected?

Tears were continuously streaming down on Minjae’s face. His sobs were silent, but the emotion on his face was so intense, so heartbreaking.

"Who are they to destroy me?"

Minjae clutched a photograph in his trembling hands. It was him and his young daughter. As he looked at it, his shoulders began moving uncontrollably as he cried for more.

The background music toned down for a little bit, as a heart-wrenching cried replaced it. The raw emotion in his delivery sent chills down the spine of every viewer.

After the continuous emotional scenes, the action picked up again. Explosions lit up the screen, and the sound of gunfire and sirens echoed.

"I guess this is it."

Sooyun’s character was shown engaging in a high-speed car chase, dodging bullets and narrowly avoiding a collision.

"This might be the only way."

The teaser juggled between intense fight scenes and moments of quiet tension.

As the teaser soon neared its end, a woman’s voice narrated ominously.

"In pursuit of justice, there’s always a price to pay."

The screen then changed to show Sooyun alone. He was facing a mysterious figure in a warehouse.

"You don’t know what you’re up against," the figure uttered. His voice was taunting and full of threat.

"I know…" Sooyun’s determined face stared at the camera as if he was talking to the viewers. "But I won’t stop at nothing until I find the truth,"

The teaser ended with a montage of rapid cuts: a burning building, Minjae’s tearful face, Sooyun aiming his gun, the female lead in action, and the shadowy figure walking away into the darkness.

In the final seconds, the title of the drama, "The Only Way" appeared in bold letters, followed by the release date.

"..."

That was unexpected.

Minjae stared at his laptop’s screen in shock. He wasn’t expecting the drama to come out this good. Oh well, undeniably, Sooyun was a good actor despite his unfavorable personality.

However, what surprised him the most was seeing himself in the teaser of the drama. He only had a few minutes worth of exposure, but the teaser made it seem like he was one of the leads in the drama.
