The next day, Weekly Star was already streaming on television and UsTube. The show had gained an overwhelming response, with almost all of it becoming positive.

The interview clearly showed the cast’s amazing chemistry and their closeness with each other. What’s more, Jihwan was able to execute the interview well, as if he was only having a casual talk with the cast that the people really liked.

On the site XYZ, fans and viewers of the show gathered to share their thoughts about the interview. One particular highlight that kept resurfacing in posts and comments was Minjae’s appearance.

The viewers didn’t expect that a mere extra would be together with the main casts of the drama.

Still, the unexpectedness of it was well perceived by the audience. Hashtags like #MinjaeSurprise and #NamMinjae were trending together with #TheOnlyWay, the main hashtag of the drama.

The viewers also praised Global Studios for their decision to include Minjae. It was revolutionary, a move that hadn’t been done before in the industry. In their mind, it seemed like there was something different about Nam Minjae.

@TheGreatSpec: Minjae was so funny lmao. His imitation of Ha-Eun had me rolling on the floor. Who knew that the guy had such a playful side after showing us that crying scene in the trailer

@YushuLala: Hahaha. This episode is one of the best so far.

@Mic_On_Stand: It looks like the casts are close to each other.

@Vastreader: "Pft– I can’t with Minjae. His answer was totally relatable.

@GoddessFighting!: My goddess Ha-Eun looks so happy in this interview. She looks more radiant and pretty.

@jididb: This show made me laugh so hard.

@Hijyung98: wasn’t expecting Minjae to be this good at interviews lol. His answers were thoughtful and genuine, but also hilarious

@Noonanoona124: "Jihwan hyung is still good! The interview for today is so awesome. Sooyun is also so good! What a handsome man he is.

@PleaseFollowMe: Hi everyone! I’m new to UsTube. Please subscribe to my channel.

@Ican’t: @PleaseFollowMe dude stop spamming every video. No one wants to subscribe to you.

@Gonegonetonight: "My baby Namjun looks so handsome! Ahhhhh! I love youuuu!"

In response to the comments, Global Studios’ social media team shared a clip of Minjae’s imitation of Ha-Eun with the caption:

"When a rookie actor steals the spotlight! Watch Minjae’s adorable and funny moments from #WeeklyStars."

The post quickly gained traction from the fans, gaining thousands of likes and retweets in just a few minutes.

Even the other cast members couldn’t help but support the comments.

Ha-Eun, who was alone in her own house, shared a story on her account. She took a picture of herself smiling widely with the show on the television in the background.

"Minjae, you did me dirty with that imitation 😤 but it was hilarious. Support #TheOnlyWay on October 10!"

Meanwhile, Sooyun’s account who was handled by his PR team was also active on social media. He shared a lot of things about the drama and the cast. Though he received a lot of support and good comments, there were still some who wanted to make an issue out of it.

@HijulAbad_: What’s up with Sooyun’s look when Mijae was answering questions? Seems intense, doesn’t it?

@JillAllen: I wonder what happened to Sooyun and Minjae. Are they fine already?

@lILIPad: Why does Sooyun look so unhappy?

Despite the hate comments, Sooyun’s agency decided to ignore them.

Instead, they chose to share Global Studio’s post about Minjae to show to the haters that Sooyun and Minjae were fine already.

It was the only thing they could do to avoid more speculations.

As the positive comments continued to pour in, Minjae found himself scrolling through the comments during his break. He couldn’t suppress the small smile creeping onto his face.

The love and support were far beyond what he’d expected. He had also gained more followers in his Wintergram because of it.

Just then, his phone buzzed. It was a message from Dongwook.

[Dongwook: Have you seen the comments, Minjae? You’re blowing up on social media! Keep this up, and I’ll need to Boss Chanhyuk to to hire a PR team for you! Hahaha.]

Minjae shook his head in disbelief before replying.

[Minjae: I’m just glad people liked it. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves, hyung."]

Though he knew for sure that they really might need it sooner if his popularity continued to progress on.

Still, he was still far from what he wanted to achieve. This was just the tip of the iceberg. He wanted to do more things.

The only good thing was he was genuinely enjoying what he was doing so it wasn’t that much hard.

’Maybe this was the start of something big after all.’ Minjae leaned back in his chair, taking a deep breath.

He was used to popularity, but why was the feeling kind of more different now? It was as if he became much more appreciative now, especially to his fans.

"Anyways…" With a calm exhale, Minjae glanced in front of him. Alone, he summoned his Status page to see his current progress.

’Just a few more EXP and my Acting skills will level up already.’ Minjae’s thoughts trailed off. As the day ended, he’d always get 3,000 EXP for accomplishing his training sessions so his EXP had been increasing more than ever.

’System, how many days are left before I accomplish my mission?’

[Just 2 more weeks left, Host.]

’That should be enough to level up.’ Minjae inwardly thought as he nodded repeatedly.

Minjae let out a sigh for another time. His schedule for this week was almost packed. He’d need to meet the casts later on for another interview, though it was said to be short only.

Then tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, there’d be another one once again. It seemed like he’d have to work his ass off this week.

As Minjae was about to fully close his Status page, a sudden notification appeared in his vision.

[Ding! New Quest Available]

Minjae’s brows furrowed slightly as he focused on the message.

[Your life has been easy these past few days, Host]

[New Quests Unlocked!]

[New Quest #1: Gain your first 50k!]

[Objective: As an actor, fame is everything, Host. Increase your online presence and attract more fans.]

[Reward: 10,000 EXP.]

[New Quest #2: Find a trusted friend. ]

[Objective: No rising star succeeds alone. A manager will help you navigate the industry more efficiently, so it’s better to find one this early.]

[Reward: 8,000 EXP + <Unknown> gift from the system]

Minjae stared at the quests for a moment, feeling both excited and slightly overwhelmed.

’So now I need to get more followers and find a manager. This system really doesn’t want me to rest, does he?’

Still, the rewards were tempting—especially the experience points and the gift from the system.

With these, reaching Expert-level Acting would be much faster.
