Regression Life of a Retired S-Class Mercenary

chapter 19



Episode 19. Mr. stubbornness

Next day.

Kang-su drove directly to Yoo So-hyun’s house.

In the passenger seat was Kim Bo-ran, whom I met at work.

“What do you think?”

It was because Kang-soo’s gaze seemed to be looking at a distant mountain from earlier.

“Ah, I have a few things to worry about.”

“What are you worried about? Worried about women?”

“Not like that. It’s just personal.”

Yesterday, after listening to Gong Chi-young’s nagging, I went to the main topic.

Of course, the main point is about priority.

‘You said that JY Department Store was making slush funds, was that why the atmosphere was so sensitive?’

The representative of JY Department Store is Jin Se-yeon, the mother of Woo Joon-jun and the aunt of Kang-su.

There, Woo Joon-jun was working as the head of the business division at JY Department Store.

Gong Chi-young checked the stock price and sales of the JY department store and informed them.

Of course, I cannot be 100% sure as I am not a stock or management expert.

However, Gong Chi-young was more expert than anyone else when it came to information analysis.

I only roughly inferred by looking at the movement of the stock price graph and regular negatives in sales.

‘If you look at the situation and atmosphere, it’s the most powerful, but… First of all, if Woo Joon Joon is managing slush funds with JY Department Store, there will be a record of moving the funds. I’ll have to check that out.’

“Does it seem like a very serious problem?”

“no. Sorry for bothering you.”

The car arrived in front of Yoo So-hyun’s house before I knew it.

Kim Bo-ran went up to pick up Yoo So-hyun.

“···hmm?”

I felt an eye somewhere. Kangsu did not immediately turn his head, but only guessed the direction.

“Could it be that Monica hired someone to vent her anger?”

I don’t feel it until I live in the presence. It was just a popular appearance disguised as normal.

Even if I ran towards it anyway, I couldn’t shorten the distance.

It’s just deliberately watching from that distance. It was, of course, a professional move.

Kang-soo got out of the car and waited at the villa entrance for Yoo So-hyun to come out.

“hello.”

“huh? Why are you with me?”

“In case you didn’t know.”

Kang-soo safely loaded the two into the car and climbed into the driver’s seat.

The car went straight to the filming site, not to the shop.

“Why have you been decorating since morning?”

“huh? What am I?”

Now Yoo So-hyun is wearing a simple yet comfortable dress with full makeup as if she were going to a photo shoot.

“You always come out wearing horn-rimmed glasses, baggy pants, and a hoodie. I don’t even wash my head. greatness. greatness. Did you do a hair pack too?”

“When did I! sister! Am I always like this?”

“You were going to stop by the shop first because you always do that. Anyway, it’s better because I didn’t stop by unnecessarily. Are you a little suspicious…?”

“Oh, it’s nothing!”

Kim Bo-ran was genuinely dumbfounded. Then, I opened my eyes and changed Yoo So-hyun and Kang-soo once.

“Sohyeon-ah… No scandals. Especially the man-”

“What are you talking about! It’s not like that!”

Kangsu just drove quietly.

Then, the two of them finished their bickering and immersed themselves in talking about advertisements.

‘I don’t think there’s any tailing… There wasn’t even a tracker earlier.’

It was because of the presence I felt while waiting in the car earlier.

Just in case, I lowered my back to the floor before getting into the car to check.

Even now, I couldn’t see any cars following me.

Soon after, we arrived at the advertising studio in Paju.

“What do you think Mr. Kangsu will do?”

“What do you mean?”

“Once I’ve decided to work as a roadster, but I’ll follow along if I want to learn the managerial job as well.”

“I will learn.”

It was because I was worried about the presence I felt in front of Yoo So-hyun’s house like before.

Accordingly, Kang-soo packed the necessary items and entered the studio along with Yoo So-hyun and Kim Bo-ran.

“hello-!”

Yoo So-hyun greeted her loudly as she entered.

It was the same greeting as celebrity Yoo So-hyun’s proprietary patent. And it was my own apology for the schedule that was postponed earlier.

“nice to meet you. Yoo So-hyun.”

“long time no see. Director.”

Director Cho Chan-soo was in charge of filming this commercial.

“Iknow, right. I heard you had a lot of work in LA, are you really okay? I honestly thought this shoot would be delayed too.”

“It’s really fine! I can’t make everyone suffer because of me!”

“Anyway, Mr. Sohyeon’s sense of responsibility is great.”

Director Cho Chan-soo’s eyes turned to Yoo So-hyun’s back.

He was also acquainted with Kim Bo-ran.

“Long time no see. Manager Kim Bo-ran.”

“Are you healthy? I wish you well today!”

“I have to take good care of you! But afterward…?”

“This is my assistant shooter, Han Kang-soo’s manager. Right now, I am in charge of loading.”

“This is Han River.”

“nice to meet you. Shall we prepare then?”

After the conversation ended, Yoo So-hyun went into the waiting room.

Kang-soo went outside and waited because of undressing.

The advertisement to be filmed today was a new vacuum cleaner from Damsung Electronics.

The concept was for housewives to cut dust in the house with Damsung Electronics’ new vacuum cleaner that emphasized light weight and power.

.

.

.

The commercial filming set in Paju was crowded with many people.

In the meantime, a middle-aged foreigner with a hat pulled down hides behind a crane that will be used for advertising and looks around.

“$%&$%&$&$%&.”

I was busy muttering that something was really bad.

Then someone grabbed the man’s shoulder.

It was river water.

“Hee-!”

The foreign man was startled, struggled, and fell backwards.

It’s not even walking or pushing. He only held his shoulder, but he fell as if he were slip-striping himself, and he rolled over and landed on a dust bag piled up in one corner.

Push-!

“Kek! Keck! What the·······!”

A thick cloud of dust rose around it.

In the midst of it, the man coughed and struggled to get up.

Kangsu brought a large electric fan nearby and blew away the dust.

Woo woo woo-!

As the dust cleared, a middle-aged man covered in dust was revealed.

All the staff’s eyes were focused.

“…Ah, Sorry. Sorry. Jaesong… it’s a stern.”

Awkward Korean to English.

Then one of them looked at him and muttered.

“Of… Ryan?”

It was Jo Chan-soo who was in charge of this advertisement.

Cho Chan-soo muttered that as he approached the foreigner.

“Ah! I’m O’brien. Hawk O’brien! Yes! Yes me!”

At the introduction, which sounded like a cry, the expressions of Cho Chan-soo and the people around him became dumbfounded.

At the same time, an article from this morning popped into their minds.

[‘My Neighbor Diablo’s director Hawk O’Brien is missing! Indirect evasion of responsibility in the teacher assassination case? sleeping?]

People who saw the article thought it was just fluttering.

Frankly, because director Hawk O’Brien had no real responsibility for it.

However, the person concerned is not Los Angeles, USA, but Korea. It was also at the Paju commercial shooting site.

“Ah… ah… ah! Does anyone know how to speak English?”

Bo-ran Kim, who was in the waiting room with me, came out because of the commotion. And I couldn’t understand when I saw the dusty set and the strange foreigners.

“Mr. Kangsu! What’s going on? Who is that dirty old man?”

“It looks like director Hawk O’Brien came from America.”

“yes? who?”

Kim Bo-ran thought he had heard it wrong.

“Hawk O’Brien.”

“yes? What is that…”

Not all were easily accessible.

In response, Kim Bo-ran opened his eyes and came closer to check.

“The real Hawk O’Brien?”

“Yes! Yes! I`m Hawk O`brien!”

Surprised, Kim Bo-ran hurriedly spoke in English.

“No, Director? Why is the director here…”

“oh! do you speak english? I’m really glad. How frustrating.”

“therefore. Why are you here!”

A world famous director was in the middle of Korea.

How can I explain this situation so that I can easily understand it?

“Yoo So-hyun! I’m here to meet Yoo So-hyun!”

“yes? ah······.”

The audition for <My Neighbor Diablo> has been completely canceled and the next appointment has not yet been set.

Then, <My Neighbor Diablo> kept contacting me to invite Yoo So-hyun to participate in the audition.

However, Jin Entertainment decided not to participate in the audition at all because of the seriousness of the work and the safety of Yoo So-hyun.

“I want Yoo So-hyun to be the lead in ‘My Neighbor Diablo’.”

“No, but if you come here like this…”

As a director, Hawk O’Brien was a national treasure level master, so his mental world was also a national treasure level.

In the movies dealing with mental hospitals in the past, it was to the extent that he entered a mental hospital while hiding his identity.

No one in the hospital thought that ‘Heidi the Alpine Girl’ walking around with a huge lollipop was the world-renowned director Hawk O’Brien.

“Jessica Kim must be Yoo So-hyun. By all means!”

That role is one of the main characters in <My Neighbor Diablo>, and it is a role that I wanted an Asian, yellow or Latino person to take on.

“Wait. Let’s not do this here for now, let’s go to our car.”

The staff around them are watching the situation.

I don’t know if some of them understood the situation because they exchanged quickly in English, but it was important to transfer it first.

Kim Bo-ran grabbed director Hawk O’Brien’s wrist and headed for the van.

“Ah, Mr. Kangsu, talk to Sohyeon.”

“All right.”

Kang-soo went to the waiting room and scratched his head.

This is because the owner of the presence felt in front of Yoo So-hyun’s house was never Hawk O’Brien.

So, still not relaxing, I knocked on the waiting room door and went in.

“Something seems very noisy, what happened?”

“Director Hawk O’Brien came all the way to Korea because he wanted to cast Yoo So-hyun himself.”

“yes? Is that director me?”

Surprised, Yoo So-hyun turned her head while making up.

If the makeup artist hadn’t removed the eyeliner in a hurry, she would have drawn a black line on her temples.

“Once the set was messed up, Boran took me to the van to talk.”

“That’s because I decided not to participate at all.”

“For now, it seems like he came to persuade me somehow.”

“Sohyeon, if you turn your head like that again, your eyebrows will make a straight line.”

“Oh, sorry. I was so surprised…”

Make-up continued.

Even in the meantime, Yoo So-hyun is unbelievable in the current situation.

“Close your brow. Before making it into a real one.”

“sorry.”

Yoo So-hyun opened her eyes wide and exhaled as if to relax.

.

.

.

Kim Bo-ran, who moved to the van, put Hawk O’Brien in the seat next to him and sighed.

“You really don’t think you can be cast if you come like this, right?”

“Why not?”

“Something bad happened in LA. But how are you going? We conveyed our position sufficiently through the company.”

Aside from profits, people’s safety is at stake.

Of course, Monica Shaw could be investigated and sentenced again for this incident.

But going to prison doesn’t mean her influence is gone.

In addition, casting was not entirely the responsibility of the director. The opinions of the production company, investors, writers, etc. must be comprehensively agreed.

“I will convince you.”

At director Hawk O’Brien’s stubbornness, Kim Bo-ran held back his sigh for a while.
