After hearing that I’m a bad guy two days in a row, I feel like I did something really bad.

‘Is this the gaslighting I’ve only heard of?’

In the past, people who fell for that kind of thing and couldn’t do anything to the other person were thought to be stupid.

And yet, I am ‘voluntarily’ doing such a stupid thing right now.

“I’m tired. I’ll go lying down, so lend me your knees.”

“Okay.”

Eugene is lying on my lap with a very comfortable expression on her face.

Now that I think about it, Eugene liked to cut my knees since he was little.

‘Why do you like lying on my lap so much?’

‘Because it’s comfortable. It’s much more comfortable than the pillow I have at home.’

If it’s the pillow that Eugene uses, it must be really expensive, but she says my knees are more comfortable on it.

If they ever make it to TS, they’ll probably be good at selling pillows to become a member of a girl group.

After finishing filming in Naju, Eugene is going up to the villa.

The modern version begins with Eugene, who has advanced to a high school and is experiencing a slump, coming to a villa to rest during the vacation.

Eugene’s quiet villa is perfect for filming.

There’s a small beach nearby, where they plan to film the modern-day climax.

King~

“Ahaha, you remember me. Oh, you cute thing.”

Minji is so happy that she wants to die while holding Nurungji Junior, who is just like her.

Beomjun is still afraid of dogs and stays far away.

“What kind of dog is this big?”

Senior Minhee said while looking at Nurungji Junior.

She keeps stroking her side, afraid that someone might say she’s not her sister.

“He’s a Labrador Retriever, so he’s pretty big. He sheds a lot of hair, so be careful with your clothes.”

Growl~

huh?

When I looked in the direction where Nurungji Junior was growling, I saw Yeongcheol Senior standing there.

He really likes people, so he pant whenever someone comes over. Why is he like that?

Did you sense some kind of energy that humans can’t sense?

Whatever it is, it’s not a good sign.

— S#6-1. In front of Im Sang-heon’s grave

This is a scene where Yeonhwa dances in front of Im Sang-heon’s grave without any dialogue.

It is said that this dance, which appears in the Jindo Ssitgimgut, appeases the spirits of the dead and relieves their resentment.

If Eugene’s condition had been okay, we would have filmed in Naju, but since that’s not the case, we postponed it for now.

‘It’s definitely natural.’

Since they were filming, everyone just exchanged glances, but Eugene looked surprised at the dance moves.

When I was learning to dance from Im Sang-heon, I intentionally danced awkwardly, but now I don’t need to do that.

The delicate fingertips and sorrowful gestures convey the sorrowful feelings of losing a loved one.

The white cloth in my hand flutters in a beautiful curve into the air.

I walk with a steady step, one step at a time, two steps at a time,

Starting with the shoulder, slightly bend, twist, pull, and push each joint.

It seemed as if he had stopped breathing, but then he started to lightly kick the tip of his shoes.

Joy and sorrow were felt in every dance move, without any excess or deficiency.

“Haa, haa… .”

Beomjun taps his tablet while groaning softly.

It seems like Eugene got inspired after seeing the dance moves.

The background music that best suits this scene will be created.

‘There are 6 years left.’

Clover Day, which Eugene is a part of, became the best K-pop girl group in 2020 by reaching the top of Billboard Hot 100.

After that, before I returned, they rose to fame as a world-class girl group by releasing singles and albums on the charts like they were eating rice.

In response, Sora also won a trophy at the Cannes Film Festival around the same time.

‘I am loved by these kids.’

Over the years, foresight has given us many gifts.

Good looks, excellent acting skills, a precious relationship, and even two girlfriend candidates.

It would have been a huge hit if I had just one, but they all fell to me at once.

You may end up with a huge bill later.

It is so much that I can’t repay it even if I give up my life.

‘Still, I guess there’s no need to worry about this much, right?’

Even if I have to pay it back later, I want to enjoy what I’ve been given.

I want to watch those dance moves that are so beautiful that they dazzle my eyes for a long time.

“What!”

Minji’s rough voice pulled me out of my deep thoughts.

“I thought only idols were good at dancing, but Korean dance is no joke either. It’s like a performance scene.”

At our school, street dance (hip-hop, popping, locking, waacking, b-boying, etc.) is the main dance sport, so this type of dance is unfamiliar.

However, Eugene, who learned ballet and Korean dance from a young age, is also capable of performing soul dance.

“The script was written with Eugene’s dancing skills in mind from the beginning. Why are you so surprised?”

“That’s true, but when I actually saw it, it was beyond my imagination. I felt bad about taking the picture with my poor skills.”

“Don’t go around saying that you have poor skills. You’ll get cursed at.”

Excessive humility is worse than bragging.

“Are you okay? Show me the monitor.”

Eugene approaches with sweat dripping down her forehead.

His face looks relaxed, unlike when he was acting with me.

“You had such a hard time acting with Hajin, but now you’re fine.”

“I see. Is it because it’s my major?”

There is no aftereffect of not being able to shake off emotions because they entered the script and did not come out.

In other words, he created that scene using only his dancing skills.

[Why are you learning to dance so hard? Aren’t you going to continue acting? You’re good at acting.]

When I was little, I asked Eugene this.

[No matter how well you act, you can’t beat Sora. She’s a genius. I’ll beat her with something else.]

At the time, I thought it was a competitive spirit, but after seeing that dance, my thoughts changed.

He discovered his talent early on and has been honing it ever since.

So, she could become a K-POP goddess who captivated the world.

“This scene overlaps with the scene where Hajin is dancing on the beach. That’s the beginning of the modern era.”

“Are you going to take a picture right away?”

“Yeah, I’ll go first with the filming crew, so go check out the last movement with Eugene.”

Then he packs his gear and leaves.

The remaining Eugene looks at me and smiles.

“Wait a minute, I’ll change my clothes and come back. You know I’m strict about dancing, right?”

I guess I won’t be doing my dancing in vain either.

*****

Minji said it was enough, but I don’t know how many more takes she had to do because she was pestered by Eugene.

“You can never just skip dancing. There’s less emotion in your fingertips!”

It would have been better for Eugene to have acted with me and suffered from the aftereffects.

Somehow we finished filming and returned to the villa.

There was enough space to sleep, so I didn’t get a separate room.

When I came out after washing up, I saw Senior Youngcheol talking on the phone with someone.

Now that I think about it, it seems like you’ve been calling a lot since yesterday.

“Senior Youngcheol has been busy since yesterday.”

“They’ll be looking for someone to interview. Who would volunteer when it’s something that could be damaging?”

What Senior Minhee said is right.

If the chairman is accused of defamation, it becomes tiring in many ways.

“I feel secure because I have Senior Youngcheol. I don’t know the seniors who graduated well.”

‘I guess we’re allies. It feels cold… was it just a coincidence?’

“Everyone, gather at the restaurant!”

Minji’s voice made my appetite run to Donghae Restaurant.

.

.

“Those reckless guys were making this stuff?”

I looked around and saw that it was the chairman’s office.

The chairman clicks his tongue while looking at something on the monitor.

It was the chairman’s unlucky face that I was seeing for the first time in a long time.

“If I hadn’t seen it in advance, I would have been in big trouble.”

The entertainment teacher, who is on the chairman’s line, is sitting there.

“When did you say that film festival was going to be held?”

“One week later.”

“Isn’t the review over?”

“It’s still in progress. Even if it’s finished, the results can change.”

The chairman laughs vulgarly when he hears that.

“Find out who’s judging. The Ministry of Education and the film industry can line up. Make sure you find out who the head judge is.”

“Okay. What about the October art festival? If we don’t win an award at the film festival, we’ll probably submit it to the film festival.”

“Just change the rules so it can’t be shown. Leave that to me.”

“I wonder what to do with their channel. If that doesn’t work, they’ll probably try uploading it to the internet, right?”

“Tell them to upload it. I’ll report the channel to YouTube and sue all the alumni who interviewed them for defamation. Those four guys should definitely not be allowed to go to school. These days, when I let them go, all sorts of things are creeping up. They don’t even know who owns the school.”

“I, Chairman. Eugene is a descendant of Daesung Group. He is the third generation of a conglomerate.”

The entertainment teacher said with a worried expression.

“I know. That girl’s father is an illegitimate child? If you sensationally cover up the fact that a third-generation chaebol is bullying a student at school and that the father is not pureblood but a swindler, the media will go crazy. Don’t worry, there are many reporters who will write that we are the victims.”

“Wow, did you think that far? That’s amazing.”

“Don’t just admire him. When is he coming? I haven’t received the interview video yet.”

“He’ll be here soon. He said he’d bring a list of all the people he interviewed.”

“Wow, you’re really giving me trouble.”

The chairman takes out a cigarette and puts it in his mouth.

The hand that lights the lighter trembles slightly.

“But can I trust him? It’s been a while since he graduated.”

“He’s the guy who’s desperate to get under Director Cha. He knows what kind of relationship I have with Director Cha, so he can’t do anything else. Don’t worry. ”

The cell phone rings.

The entertainment teacher receives an urgent phone call.

“Oh, you’re here? Okay, come up to the chairman’s office right away.”

The entertainment teacher said as he hung up the phone.

“It’s in front of the school.”

After a while, the door to the chairman’s office opens and someone comes in.

uh?

“Sorry, I’m a little late because of the traffic.”

The person who sat down was… Kim Young-cheol.

.

.

.

I got up from my seat in surprise.

Fortunately, no one woke up.

I looked at my watch and it was 6 am.

For the first time in a long time, a vision of the future appeared in my dream.

‘It wasn’t an ally…’
