The Novelist Who Leapt Through Time Episode 152

Celebrities’ relationships become targets of criticism.

To put it positively, because they are loved by everyone, everyone envies them. To put it negatively, it is because they are objects of quasi-love.

A large part of the feelings fans give to celebrities consists of love. Even if it is not love but admiration, behind it lies the expectation of demanding ‘professionalism’ from idols.

Therefore, a celebrity’s dating rumor is bad news for business, and the revelation of a dating rumor (without prior agreement) can be said to be an attack on the company.

Therefore, entertainment agencies manage risks by controlling reporters with appropriate money, personal connections, and alcohol. As the size of the company grows, this becomes closer to a system.

In the case of Baekhak Entertainment, the public relations team was the department in charge of that work.

And the public relations team leader used profanity in the office for the first time in a while.

“Aren’t they crazy? this?”

The team members were silent. It’s not because they’re scared by the team leader’s abusive language, but because everyone agrees.

Side EP-Complicated Mind

This revelation was a departure from usual practice.

It’s not just any other entertainment agency, it’s Baekhak, Baekhak.

Monster of the industry.

Baekhak ‘Media’ Group.

In front of Korea’s largest media conglomerate, any entertainment industry becomes as small as a fly. If entertainment reporters want to include Baekhak’s celebrities in their writing, they must receive Baekhak’s approval.

Should a small country stand against a large country? This was common knowledge in the industry.

Therefore, the feelings of the public relations team leader were not much different from those of the Ming Dynasty emperor who heard that the Jurchen tribe had suddenly invaded Liaodong.

“How dare you!”

But no one rebels against the strong empire. There are only those who rebel against the collapsing empire.

The hardships experienced by Baekhak Entertainment and its president, Seungwon Baek, were secretly known. This was even more true for journalists working in the same industry.

Baekhak Entertainment’s status within the Baekhak Group is no longer what it used to be, and therefore, the fact that the BMB press office was surprised by CEO Baek Seung-won’s clearing of his throat is also a story from the past.

However, this does not mean that the BMB newsroom views Baekhak Entertainment as a member of the same family. It is rather unsatisfactory for President Baek Seung-won to restrict freedom of speech to protect a few celebrities. If you were to ask them which of the two they should call ‘family’, they would choose the entertainment reporters, not Baekhak Entertainment.

And entertainment reporters did not miss this subtle change in conflict.

This led to the disaster of Kim Byul’s dating rumor being made public as an article without even prior consultation with Baekhak Entertainment.

Baek Seung-won was furious.

[- !!! -! -!]

“Yes, boss, yes, yes…” … .”

[-!!!]

“all right. president… … .”

The second management manager put down his cell phone with an exhausted expression.

Baek Seung-won’s anger was never light. In particular, the fact that the incident occurred while he was staying in Cannes with Kim Byeol hurt his pride.

The wild beast was wounded, but the wild animal did not die. Baek Seung-won immediately realized that the entertainment reporters saw him as something very similar to a dog’s penis.

He contacted the Korean headquarters and instructed them to take several retaliatory measures, and at the same time ordered them to neutralize the slanderous campaign against Kim Byeol.

Of course, in a certain era, you may wonder whether a celebrity’s love life is considered a blemish. Actually, the public reaction wasn’t that bad. I’ll just say that it’s cute to see little kids smiling brightly at each other.

However, this is a country where celebrity dating was considered a sin until 30 years ago. If his love affair was discovered, he was forced to retire, and if he persisted, he received a rat corpse and a razor blade in the mail.

There can never be any negative effects.

“ha… … .”

The head of Management 2’s head became confused.

In cases like this, it is very difficult to determine responsibility.

How can an actress who won the Best Actress Award at the Cannes Film Festival break up dating rumors the next day? If you ask her, the answer is obvious.

-What should I do?

The article has already burst, and the spilled water cannot be picked up.

However, according to the principles of yin-yang and the five elements, there is never a one-way flow in the world.

If those guys use Gabulgi, we also have special moves.

-Nope.

They say it’s not them, so what can they do? Are you going to insist that it’s true?

Do whatever you want, whether you insist on it or not. The more it happens, the more filthy it becomes.

The second manager of the management barely gathered his wits and got up from his seat with great energy.

good. There is nothing in the world you can’t do if you solve it one by one.

He immediately called Kim Byeol and asked if the scandal was groundless.

“Oh, star. It’s the manager. Congratulations on the Best Actress award… .”

[Yes, yes, thank you, Manager.]

“Yes. I want to celebrate more, but I have urgent work to do right now. I’ll tell you that first. “It wasn’t anything else, I just suddenly started making strange noises and called.”

[iced coffee… That?]

“I guess you already know. Anyway… No? “It’s groundless, right?”

[…] … .]

what.

Kim Byul has no answer.

The second manager of management thought of many things in that short silence.

Kim Byeol, who was on the other end of the phone, also had a complicated mind.

“ah… … .”

Unfounded.

Am I right?

* * *

The first time I met the boy was in the waiting room of a movie set.

It was also accompanied by a comical happening.

-What are you?

-yes?

-Aren’t you saying hello?

The boy, whom Kim thought was a younger child actor, had a genius that Kim Byeol could not understand.

People marvel at the age of writers, but Kim Byeol admires their artistry. Because he saw this closer than anyone else.

However, if you ask whether that feeling is affection, the answer is ‘I don’t know.’

Kim Byeol has few friends.

A career in the entertainment industry started at a very young age. I have never shared similar interests with other children my age.

He was forcibly separated from his father and younger brother, and his mother taught him instead of loving him. Students in the same class want to be friends with celebrities on TV, not Kim Byeol’s friends, and child actors of the same age that she occasionally encounters are not friends but competitors.

We lived in a world where everyone naturally ranked people, like stamping beef.

In the midst of that suffering, a boy I happened to meet became a friend more precious than anything else.

He’s better than me, he’s worse than me, he calls me a senior, but sometimes I feel like a senior… A strange boy.

A genius artist who always brightens my path, drives people crazy with every book he writes, and took me to Cannes.

He’s arrogant, unlucky, secretly lazy, only knows how to write, and is a fashion terrorist who walks around wearing nothing but a fuzzy blanket.

Do you like that child?

The answer is still ‘I don’t know.’

However, Kim Byeol studied literature. Literature organizes the complex human mind in refined language.

The world made Kim Byul look into her own heart, and for the first time, Kim Byeol learned what feelings she had for the boy.

Sinclair is always saved by Damian. The relationship between the two is never equal. It can’t even be called friendship.

This is ‘dependence’.

It is like a child who was not cared for by his parents clinging to his teacher, and a woman without a father unconsciously choosing an older man as her ideal type.

So is that dependence closer to affection or friendship?

Kim Byeol was still too young to seek the answer.

But old people have their own ways.

When adults say ‘mature’, they mean that they are satisfied because the child does not bother them.

Kim Byeol knows how to act in a way that is pleasing to adults.

That is lying.

“Of course not.”

It’s not that it’s not.

“It’s groundless.”

I don’t know.

“Yes, please tell me that clearly.”

not sure. Nothing is set in stone.

But Kim Byeol lied.

It wasn’t difficult.

Because Kim Byeol was always living a fake life.

Even the name Kim Byul is not her real name.

So what exactly are you?

“… … .”

I see a shiny leaf in the corner of the hotel room.

The golden light of the magnificent palm trees mesmerizes people.

The writer told him to put it down in advance, as he would be completely ruined if he tried to bear the weight of the plaque.

However, Kim Byeol stood up and slowly approached the palm tree. And he carefully lifted the trophy.

Kim Byeol quietly looked down at the golden leaves.

The writer’s prediction was exactly right.

If you try to bear the weight of this plaque, you will become a complete wreck. And even though I know that, I will hold on to it while holding the award in my hands.

However, the writer’s advice was not effective.

I can’t put down this plaque.

If you give up receiving applause from people, being loved by everyone, and rising higher to become a star, Kim Byul will no longer be Kim Byeol.

“ah. “I want to hit the actor.”

That can’t be possible.

I’ve come too far to quit.

So you shouldn’t stop lying. The show must go on.

Even if complicated feelings seep into me one day, I just hide it quietly and continue acting.

That’s Kim Byeol’s lie.

Because it was Kim Byeol’s art.

* * *

A change has come to Koo Hak-jun’s daily life. Nothing special happened at university. Gu Hak-Jun is teaching literature to his students like never before.

What changed was Gu Hak-jun’s wife, Min Chae-won. Chaewon Min’s business has penetrated the overseas market. At some point, so much money poured in that she found it difficult to handle it. And she had too much work to handle. She said Min Chae-won now spends more time abroad than in Korea.

Therefore, Gu Hak-jun lost his wife and gained money, and because of this, the rule that the whole family eats dinner together every day became meaningless.

However, novelist Koo Hak-jun is a monstrous man who takes care of art, humanity, social life, and family.

Gu Hak-jun learned to cook instead of hiring a housekeeper.

And he kept his two daughters at home, who kept trying to get out of the house, saying something about ‘the old father cooking with his own hands’.

Thanks to this, even if Min Chae-won was absent, the remaining three family members were always able to have dinner together.

The person who is most dissatisfied is Gu Yubin.

“I went to college, but they said I had to eat dinner at home, so I was embarrassed to leave alone…” .”

Guy Yuna, who had a bad taste, gave the writer a piece of advice.

“Are you embarrassed by your family?”

Gu Yu-bin subdued Gu Yu-na with honey chestnuts. She received a blow to the top of her head, and I calmly concentrated on playing with chopsticks.

The labor-management negotiations between Gu Yu-bin and Gu Hak-jun continue.

“Can you please lift the curfew?”

“When did I put a curfew on? “We always eat dinner together as a family.”

“This is a curfew at 6 p.m.”

“You can go out after dinner.”

“Then they glare at me and ask me if I have a boyfriend.”

“I didn’t glare at you.”

There is no answer if you insist. Gu Yubin pondered.

“I heard there’s a rumor going around the school? “The famous novelist Koo Hak-jun is holding his daughter like a rat?”

“Aren’t you born in the year of the rat?”

“Dad, are you really going to do that?!”

“Our Yubin is angry all the time. Do you have a boyfriend? Oh my, now that I have a boy, my dad is… … .”

“Kaaaaak-!”

Novelist Koo Hak-jun, a monstrous man who takes care of art, humanity, social life, and family.

Even he couldn’t avoid the “I’m worried because my daughter is so pretty” syndrome, a common complaint among men who sent their daughters to college for the first time.

While Gu Yu-bin, whose life was controlled to the same degree as having a boyfriend even without a boyfriend, was hemorrhaging blood, Gu Yu-na, who had chosen all the delicious meat side dishes by herself, finished her meal.

And I resolutely evaluated my father’s cooking.

“4 points today.”

“Thank you… … .”

For reference, the score is out of 10.

Koo Hak-jun was so happy that he had risen from 1 to 4 points.

Just like that, Gu Yuna walked slowly and sat down on the sofa.

And then I picked up the remote control.

My Byul-ni (a title I will never say out loud) won a big award in France, so I was feeling a little good these days.

I don’t watch TV often, but watching TV these days has been quite fun since there are broadcasts praising Kim Byeol all day long.

So the TV turned on.

Kim Byeol and Moon In appeared on the same screen.

It’s a dating rumor.

“under?”

May of that year.

Complicated feelings did not come only to Kim Byeol.

It was spring.
