What kind of love story is it?
To me, you…
All good and evil.
I was able to understand it.
Gave me the light of my life.
Now I just turn off the light.
Oh, my life is really dark.
I can’t live without your love.
Unwritten intentional love history 1.
Unwritten, intentional.
Unwritten intention refers to a case where an actor determines that his or her act may correspond to a factor in the establishment of a crime and performs the act while predicting the result. In other words, it is not intentional to realize the result, but it is a deliberate act by determining that it will bear the result even if it is judged that it is possible to generate it.
“Are you out of your mind? Are you? What the hell were you thinking?”
CEO Hakseung Kim threw today’s sports newspaper on the table and shouted.?The man, wearing a dark blue shirt, a light brown suit and a handkerchief in his pocket, looked like a rich D&G model.?Although he was close to forty, he did not look his age because of his well-maintained skin and muscular body exposed outside his luxurious suit.He shouted violently, messing up his hair which he got fixed this morning at the hair salon in Cheongdam-dong, where non-members had to wait a month even if they made a reservation.
“How many times is this? Huh? The last time you almost got caught, Chief Cha barely managed to steer the reporter away. What did you say then?”
“It will never happen again.”
The man, who was leaning deeply against the dark brown sofa, replied with a smile. It was a smile as refreshing as the scent of the air when a fresh orange was just peeled. The bright-colored hair made the man’s charm stand out more.
“And I won’t get caught.”
It sounded confident. As if everything in the world was in his palm.
“You won’t get caught? Can’t you see this with your eyes?”
CEO Kim Hakseung said, pointing to the article with the initials at the corner of page 16 of the entertainment page. It was about top star S enjoying a secret date with a new actress inside the car.
“Who would read the article on page 16?”
“I would read it. Me.”
“CEO, you’re reading it because it’s your job. No one is reading. No one.”
It wasn’t wrong, but CEO Kim Hakseung punched his chest. What he wanted to punch was actually the man sitting in front of him, but he only hit his heart repeatedly.
The man sitting on the sofa looked down at the newspaper with an interested face as if he was reading another person’s scandal.
“How can a human being like that be the number one celebrity without any anti? Oh, my.”
It sounded as if he didn’t like that fact.
“Then you should be the first anti-fan.”
CEO Kim Hakseung’s fist trembled at the man’s words.
People instinctively look at their own standards when making judgements about others. CEO Kim Hakseung has repeatedly said that everything that was subjective was bullshit. As soon as a thought goes through one’s head and comes out of their mouth, he believed those words were bound to be subjective. Therefore, it was impossible to please people with different standards.
But there was a person who made it possible. It was Lee Wooyeon sitting in front of CEO Kim Hakseung.
Lee Wooyeon, who started his career in the entertainment industry with an independent film a few years ago, was an actor who was on a winning streak without a single slump. For the first time, he received more spotlight than the main character in a drama where he played the supporting role, and was immediately cast as the main character in a film directed by Park Seonghan, drawing public attention. After the movie was released, he did not expect his stock price to fall because his acting skills were excellent and the mask of strange charm that makes it difficult to determine nationality and age.
Having won the Rookie of the Year award and the Best Actor award that year, he reached the top a year after entering the entertainment industry. It was the law of the entertainment industry to have ups and downs, but this did not apply to Lee Woo-yeon.
Every drama he filmed exceeded 40% in viewers rating, every scenario he chose hit the jackpot, and the consumption effect of the advertisement he filmed made advertisers dance.
There was also an editorial published in an economic journal that the product he advertises has received overwhelming support from consumers, especially female consumers, and that the brand Lee Wooyeon itself exists.
People liked Lee Woo-yeon.
Everyone liked his ingenuity, his rarely seen cute appearance, a beautiful smile that revealed his perfect teeth, excellent acting and singing skills, as well as praise from those who have worked with him at least once.
The women especially loved his eyes. His eyes were loved greatly, with the deep futility of an old man who knew all of life’s history and an innocence that was not worthy of his age at the same time. Some of his fans even said that Lee Woo-yeon’s eyes should be designated as a national treasure and that if he dies, he should preserve the organ by any means. Opinions were divided on Lee Wooyeon’s life. Little was known about his background except for the fact that he was a graduate of Princeton University. Interesting hypotheses such as the grandson of a famous foreign company, the illegitimate son of a famous actress, etc. have been circulated, but nothing has been confirmed. It was surprising for CEO Kim Hakseung that even such a mystery acted as his charm.
However, it did not mean that Lee Wooyeon had no shortcomings. He liked women. He doesn’t know who first used the phrase “I don’t block women who come, I don’t catch women who go,” but CEO Kim argued that Lee Wooyeon should go and pay royalties to that person.
Although this scandal has been avoided, CEO Kim was concerned that it was not long before he occupied the front page of a sports newspaper if he was always like this. Lee Wooyeon always acted in his own way whether he liked it or not. When CEO Kim saw him like that, he grumbled that he lived like a man who would live for one day and die.
“Please, live carefully. What are you going to do when your celebrity life ends?”
“Well, I’m still thinking about what to do next.”
“Why did I trust and raise you?”
JN CEO Kim Hakseung often recalled the day when Lee Wooyeon visited the company and made a bold request to debut as an actor. Because of Lee Wooyeon’s face, which was too good to be dismissed as a madman, he called him back again when he was being chased out by the security.
“This won’t be a problem.”
Lee Wooyeon said, looking through the article at the end of the newspaper. There was no doubt about the future in his smiling eyes. Lee Wooyeon was always like that. In his eyes, there was an unfounded determination.
“Of course there won’t be. This article is on the front page.”
CEO Kim Hakseung said, spreading the front page of the sports newspaper back to the table.
“You might have been on the front page if it weren’t for this.”
There was rather shocking content decorating the headline.
“Girl idol. Jumped from the agency building. Suicide again?”
Chief Cha, who was sitting opposite Lee Wooyeon, muttered while reading the front page with a pale face.
An article saying that a female idol jumped from the roof of the building early this morning and died was decorated with all kinds of provocative phrases. Lee Wooyeon sat there with a disinterested face.
“And as of yesterday,Chief Kim resigned.”
“Again?”
Chief Cha was surprised and asked.
“Yes,again, again, again.”
CEO Kim Hakseung added, grinding his teeth. It was already the eighth time this year. The life of a manager with irregular life and unclear income is not very long. If you work under a large entertainment company, it is called The God’s Workplace in the manager industry because you receive not only the four major insurances but also bonuses regularly. Among them, JN provides the best annual salary and treatment in the industry, so it has been crowded with people who want to join there as a manager. There were many people who dreamed of setting up their own entertainment business later ?because working for a good company naturally increased networking and learning skills.
In particular, the better the popularity of the celebrity he is in charge of, the more it was in line with the manager’s power. The better the celebrity he was in charge of, the more proud he felt and worked harder.
The fact that Lee Wooyeon’s manager, who is the best in Korea, continues to change meant that Lee Wooyeon was the problem after all.
However, Lee Wooyeon was a celebrity famous for his good personality. Lee Wooyeon, who has been in the top spot for several years as the celebrity best suited for coffee commercials, was well-received by those around him.?He was never late, and he was always polite to the staff. It was common for people to be humble when they were rookies, but as they became more popular, their nose bridge became higher. In the case of Lee Wooyeon, he was always polite and was popular among the people he worked with.
“This is all because of your dirty personality!”
“No way.”
Lee Wooyeon replied with a smile. He looked so gentle and good-looking. However, CEO Kim knew the gutter-like personality hidden under the angel-like mask.
“How did you bother him?”
“Me? I’ve never done that. Did Chief Kim say that on his way out? Are you saying I harassed him?”
“…”
When Chief Kim quit, he did not say a word blaming Lee Wooyeon. He just disappeared after saying that he was incompetent and lacking, and that he would no longer be able to work as a manager.
“Look at that.”
Lee Wooyeon said, taking out his cell phone with a long, elegant finger. As soon as he saw Lee Wooyeon, who looked like he knew it, CEO Kim cursed a thousand times.
Managers who were in charge of Lee Wooyeon resigned for the same reason.?They said that they felt they were not good enough to take on the role of Lee Wooyeon’s manager, the best star in Korea, and said they were sorry.
That’s once or twice, but it’s been eight times this year alone, so CEO Kim couldn’t help but suspect Lee Wooyeon. Surely that devilish man did something behind the scenes to make the innocent managers quit. How on earth did he cleverly burn a person’s insides? Doubts grew like Jack’s bean sprouts.
“Don’t say that anymore, like my manager quitting because I was bothering him. CEO.”
“Then why do they all resign for the same reason?”
“Well, I don’t know that either.”
In fact, Lee Woo-yeon was not a good person.?Although he deceived people with his good impression and soft tone, he was a human being who lacked expression simply by saying that he had a bad personality.?And he did not dare pretend to be a good person in front of CEO Kim.
It was like that even now. Lee Wooyeon did not express any emotion even when it was reported that a person in the same entertainment industry committed suicide.
“By the way, something happened to her and she jumped from the building. What the.”
Director Cha read the article with his tongue-in-cheek. ?He clenched his tongue and shook his head sadly.?Still then, Lee Wooyeon was still texting on his cell phone with an indifferent face.
“I don’t know. That’s the case. Anyway, it’s unfortunate. At a young age.”
Saying that, CEO Kim glanced at Lee Wooyeon. When their eyes met, Lee Wooyeon said with a polite coffee-flavored smile.
“There’s an order when you come, but there’s no order when you go.”
“…”
“I’m sorry to hear that, but she’s already dead. What can I do?”
If he could, CEO Kim Hakseung wanted to wrap his head and lie down right now. He’s talking without thinking.
“Are you a man without a heart?”
“No way. I was just saying that you both shouldn’t give up.”
If you don’t know about Lee Wooyeon, it was a voice that could fool you. However, CEO Kim Hakseung knew the gutter hidden in that slick mask.
“It breaks my heart to think about how hard it must have been to make such a choice at her prime.”
Lee Wooyeon mutters, pressing near his chest with his palm. It was a pitiful tone that made it hard to believe that it was the same person as the person who was discussing the order of dying just before.
CEO Kim and Director Cha were the only people who knew Lee Wooyeon’s true self. The two also knew that the voice of Lee Wooyeon, who touched their hearts just now, was all made up.
Seriously, Lee Wooyeon did not feel as much sympathy for the dead woman as his fingernails. Lee Woo-yeon was such a human being.
“I’ve got a black suit ready. Go and come back.”
As soon as CEO Kim finished his words, Lee Wooyeon turned his head with a strange look.
“You have to go to a place like that and pay your respects to improve your reputation.”
“Do I have a reputation to improve?”
“You have to go even if you’re lazy. There’s also the face of our agency.”
“Who said it was annoying? Of course I have to go.”
Saying that, like he was annoyed to death, Lee Wooyeon stood up from his seat.
“Director Cha will take you home. I’ve prepared a black suit, a dress shirt, shoes, and glasses without prescription. And when he takes you home, the manager who will work tomorrow will come, drive you, and say bye, so don’t bother him.”
“I didn’t bother anyone.”
No matter how much Lee Wooyeon says that ,CEO Kim was convinced that he must have acted behind the scenes for the managers to resign one after another.
“Reporters will gather, so take care of yourself. Don’t make useless things happen.”
“What are you saying?”
Lee Wooyeon turned his head and asked with a face what it really was.
“Girls.”
“Ah, girls.”
With his head slightly down, he laughed. The women melted into his quiet, pleasing voice that touched their ears. In the entertainment industry, it was not difficult to find men who were more handsome or had better proportions than Lee Woo-yeon. But one of the numerous reasons why he did not come down from the top even though he was not a splendid handsome man was his voice.
The actresses who filmed a drama or movie together praised Lee Wooyeon’s voice. It was their slightly bluffed argument that if he confessed his love in their ear, no woman would have a choice but to fall for it.
Lee Wooyeon knew better than anyone else how his voice was heard by the other person. He asked, with a soft laugh like melted chocolate.
“Do you think I’m a punk who’ll cause problems with women at a funeral? Me”
“…”
I can see it, you punk.
CEO Kim swallowed what he wanted to say and motioned for him to leave. Lee Wooyeon smiled and said goodbye and disappeared. CEO Kim took out the medicine, put it in his mouth, and poured water into the cup for the headache that was rushing in. Chief Cha paused for a while and asked carefully.
“What kind of person is the new manager? CEO.”
CEO Kim Hakseung, after swallowing the water, replied.
“Someone who will never quit.”
