Possessed 10 Million Actors-Chapter 123:
Chapter 123:
Before coming to today's interview, Go Seoyoung had received a hint from Jeong Sunho that "Kwon Seokhoon will make a major announcement."
Frankly, Go Seoyoung thought that even if it was called a major announcement, it was probably just OS Entertainment recruiting Kwon Seokhoon.
But the fact that Kwon Seokhoon was auditioning for OS Entertainment surprised her. Suppressing her astonishment as much as possible, she looked at Jang Sunho sitting next to Kwon Seokhoon.
""
However, Jang Sunho wore his characteristic expression of unreadable emotions. Judging by that expression, he seemed unlikely to say anything before being asked directly.
Go Seoyoung drank the water in front of her as if her throat was dry and calmly organized her thoughts.
With Kwon Seokhoon's career, there shouldn't be any need for more. Why would he bother auditioning?'
Go Seoyoung looked at Jang Sunho again. But this time, Jang Sunho remained calm with a nonchalant expression.
People are fine when you get to know them, but they can be too naive. Subtly authoritative, too.'
Not only this time but also until now, Jang Sunho has handed her several good leads. As a result, Go Seoyoung's perception of Jang Sunho changed a lot.
When she first met Jang Sunho, she thought of him as someone frighteningly strategic and meticulous, a person you should never turn against. Now, she even felt a certain liking for him.
But every time he handed her a lead, he wouldn't say anything until she asked, making it frustrating for Go Seoyoung as a journalist.
"Um Manager Jang. Could you give me more detailed information about the interview?"
"What exactly are you asking about?"
While Go Seoyoung wanted to write the article as soon as possible, Jang Sunho seemed unhurried. Wondering if he was making fun of her, Go Seoyoung squinted at Jang Sunho.
Still, Jang Sunho didn't say anything. Go Seoyoung sighed slightly and began to organize her questions on the laptop.
But what could she do? He was her superior.
After organizing her questions on the laptop for a while, Go Seoyoung looked straight at Jang Sunho and asked,
"Manager Jang Sunho. May I ask you a question?"
"Yes."
"Thank you. Then, first, I'd like to ask about the audition. OS Entertainment has never held auditions since its establishment, only recruiting through FA. However, this time, Kwon Seokhoon mentioned that he would audition for OS Entertainment when he left KL Entertainment. Considering he's willing to lower himself and audition, it seems like Kwon Seokhoon has a great liking for OS Entertainment. Is there a reason for making an actor like him audition rather than directly recruiting him?"
As if she were an announcer, Go Seoyoung asked her questions in a steady rhythm. Jang Sunho answered as if he had been waiting for it.
To tell you the truth, we originally planned to sign him directly. However, Kwon Seokhoon refused. He said that although joining OS Entertainment would be good, he wanted to return to his roots and start like a rookie."
"Returning to his roots, is it because of a discord with his previous agency?"
"I'm just conveying what Kwon Seokhoon said. I don't know the details."
""
"But the timing was right. We were coincidentally preparing for a large-scale audition at OS Entertainment, and when Kwon Seokhoon heard about the planning intentions, he expressed his intention to participate."
While Go Seoyoung recorded Jang Sunho's words on her laptop, she asked again.
"Kwon Seokhoon, the decision to participate seems to make this audition quite special. Could you please explain about this audition?"
"Yes."
Jang Sunho answered briefly and immediately began to explain about the audition.
"This audition is a collaborative competition audition program created in partnership with BDD Broadcasting Station. Anyone dreaming of becoming an actor can apply."
"The judges include actors from OS Entertainment, Director Na Jinho from BDD drama, PD Kim Mansoo, PD Netflix Ha Sarang, Acting Coach Kwak Jinwook, and Director Yeo Jaeyoon."
"It is an opportunity for active actors and professionals to evaluate acting skills, and it is an audition for the lead and supporting roles in the next work by writer Jo Seokwon."
Although Jang Sunho spoke calmly, Go Seoyoung listening to it could not be calm at all.
A collaboration audition between a planning agency that has been growing tremendously recently and a star writer.
Moreover, seeing that it is being conducted by BDD, it must have been scheduled. It was an excellent opportunity for those dreaming of becoming actors.
As expected Riding the OS Entertainment line was a stroke of luck.'
Although she had suffered a lot in the past because of Jang Sunho, thanks to him, she could now receive exclusive leads like this.
"That's all. For more details, please refer to the announcements on the official website of OS Entertainment."
After finishing the explanation, Jang Sunho nodded his head. After a few minutes of Go Seoyoung organizing Jang Sunho's answers on her laptop, she showed a satisfied smile.
With this scoop, I can feast on it for a week, no, maybe two.'
At that moment, Go Seoyoung noticed the last question she had written.
Ask about impressions and determination to participate in the audition.
It wasn't particularly important. It was just a formal question.
But since the opportunity to have a solo interview with Kwon Seokhoon doesn't come often, she decided to ask everything she could.
"Actor Kwon Seokhoon, how long has it been since you participated in a planning agency audition?"
"Yes? Oh, it's my first time. I used to be in a theater group, and I was just cast by KL Entertainment."
It was a story that even Go Seoyoung, as a reporter, heard for the first time. As the outline of the article was taking shape, satisfied, she nodded her head and continued with the questions.
"I see. Then, do you have any determination and goals for this planning agency audition that you are challenging for the first time?"
"Um"
Kwon Seokhoon touched his chin and pondered, glancing briefly at the bandages wrapped around his hand. At the end of his gaze was Jinseok's message, Get well soon!'
"I want to enjoy acting as a rookie and return to my roots. That way, I won't be embarrassed in front of my friends who consider me a role model.'"
It was a safe and witty answer. Since Go Seoyoung didn't have any particular intention with her question, she nodded her head in agreement.
For Kwon Seokhoon, it was a statement keeping Jinseok in mind, but Go Seoyoung interpreted it as a rookie actor' reading this article.
Without any additional questions, she recorded the answer.
"Oh, and this is separate from the audition."
Kwon Seokhoon smiled mysteriously and continued, "I'm preparing for another audition apart from the OS Entertainment planning agency audition. It's for the work The Most Painful Predestined Relationship in the World.'"
"The Most Painful Predestined Relationship in the World?"
"Yes. It's a Japanese word, a sad romance. It's the genre I've often done."
"If you received an audition proposal for a Japanese work Oh, I'm sorry. Please continue."
"Haha, yes. But it's not just me who received the audition proposal for that work. Kang Jinseok, who is expected to be a judge in the OS Entertainment planning agency audition, also received it."
Upon hearing Kwon Seokhoon's words, Go Seoyoung looked at Jang Sunho. But this time, too, Jang Sunho was calmly looking straight ahead.
Before Go Seoyoung could feel frustrated about Jang Sunho's attitude, Kwon Seokhoon added.
"I went to watch Kang Jinseok's filming for before coming to today's interview, and he acts well."
"So, I want to try auditioning for , which is an open audition."
"Just competing in the same work can be a great learning experience."
With the scent of a scoop in the air, Go Seoyoung, afraid she might miss Kwon Seokhoon's words, was diligently tapping on her laptop, organizing his words.

"Hello! Man-chunah, your sister came to visit! Aren't you grateful? Huh?"
Swinging open the door to the hospital room, KL Entertainment's 2nd Division Manager, Jo Chaeyeon, shouted. At the sound of her clattering voice, Yang Manchun, lying on the hospital bed in room 3, frowned.
"Ugh"
In response, a painful groan escaped from Yang Manchun's face, where he had been hit by Seokhoon.
Ignoring Yang Manchun, Jo Chaeyeon laughed cheerfully, dragging a chair over to sit. Then she placed a fruit basket on Yang Manchun's stomach.
"Ta-da! A fruit basket with lots of mangoes, your favorite! How about it, suddenly losing strength?"
Yang Manchun looked at Jo Chaeyeon with an irritated expression. She deliberately made eye contact with Yang Manchun, then covered her mouth and laughed.
"Phew Hahaha!! It's a masterpiece! Can I take a picture of you now? It feels like a Mira cosplay!"
"Sigh"
"Don't glare at me like that. You should be grateful that such a beauty came to visit you while I'm busy."
Click! Click!
Jo Chaeyeon started taking pictures of Yang Manchun lying in bed. Even though he had told her not to take pictures, he resigned himself to it, closing his eyes and staying still.
After Jo Chaeyeon took pictures for a while, she took an apple from the fruit basket on Yang Manchun's stomach and bit into it.
"I heard a rumor that you got caught because you were pretending to exploit Kwon Seokhoon's weakness. I didn't expect it to be this bad. Well, you played it well. You should've caught real' weaknesses like me; actors would have gone crazy then. Tsk tsk."
""
"But it worked out well. You can get plastic surgery and go on a diet now. I have a hospital my kids often go to; it's amazing there. If I introduce you, you get a 3% discount! Should I introduce you? Huh?"
Yang Manchun glared at Jo Chaeyeon who continued to playfully talk. He was at the point of turning his stomach inside out, and having a woman who came to visit acting like this made him naturally angry.
Jo Chaeyeon extended her hand apologetically. Of course, her expression continued to smile, but she kept saying sorry.
"Okay, okay. Stop teasing. If you keep glaring at me like that, I'll just leave, big brother."
"Ungya eojyeo."
"What did you say? I can't hear you well."
"Ungya eojira-o."
"Oh, Manchun's baby-like whining is cute."
Perhaps no longer wanting to play along with Jo Chaeyeon's joke, Yang Manchun closed his eyes. Expecting that she would eventually get tired of him and leave if he didn't respond.
However, at that moment, something was said that made Yang Manchun's eyes snap open.
"Manchun, I came here today as a get-well visit and also to convey a message from Division Manager 1."
"Huh?"
"Division Manager 1 wants you to leave the company. You have to repay all the money you embezzled."
Snap!
Surprised, Yang Manchun grabbed the bed railing and sat up. It was a violent movement that completely disregarded the doctor's recommendation for stability.
