chapter 142
142 – Musical Casting (6)
We agreed on the audition schedule and method with the representative of ‘Studio Neckmu’.
And immediately returned from Gangnam to Sangam-dong.
… She was 10 minutes late because of a new musical actress named Lim Eun-jin.
“Sorry, I was a little late.”
“It’s okay, this is my schedule for today anyway.”
“I have to go home and study…” . hehehe… ….”
Afternoon Sweets member — Goo Ga-eun slumped her shoulders.
It seemed like he really didn’t want to study.
Well, in the past, I didn’t want to eat palm oil, so I cut it.
I heard that there are many schools these days where palm trees are not compulsory, and I thought the world has become a better place.
… Have I gotten older too?
In the afternoon, the Sweets duo and team leader Cho Hyun-ho got into the car and wheeled it to the Lucky Seven entertainment building.
Team leader Jo Hyeon-ho took over the steering wheel instead of secretary Jeong Song-i.
While she was on her way to her dorm, she told Goo Ga-eun her details about her upcoming musical.
She even planned to hold her audition due to protests from new actress Lim Eun-jin.
“When are you doing it?”
Jo Min-ju asked, looking at Goo Ga-eun and her face in turn.
“Next week. So, October 31st.”
It wasn’t a very generous schedule.
It’s only two weeks.
Considering that Lim Eun-jin spent almost all of her time practicing during the two weeks, she was at an absolute disadvantage against Koo Ga-eun.
Goo Ga-eun had to juggle her existing broadcasting and vending schedules and study for college, while practicing for musicals in her spare time.
“It’s hard as expected.”
“Why, I can do it… !”
Gu Ga-eun clenches her fists and pushes forward, and Jo Min-joo shakes her head.
It seemed like the first time these two had such different opinions.
“Why don’t we do it like this?”
At my words, both Jo Min-joo and Gu Ga-eun fixed their eyes on me.
Every time something like this happens, I feel a little happy,
… I couldn’t help but feel a little burdened.
She cleared her throat a little and said.
“Let Ga-eun practice for just two weeks, and if she passes the audition, it means she has better skills than that actor, so let’s continue. Instead, if she fails the audition, it means she’s having a hard time right now, so let’s try it out when she has more time as a college student. Got it?”
[Name: Jo Min-joo]
[Current Thoughts: That’s probably for the best….]
[Name: Gu Ga-eun]
[Current Thoughts: As expected, the producer is smart… !]
I don’t think it’s a particularly smart solution.
I feel like I’m doing the same thing again.
Anyway, we both nodded, so I hope we don’t fight anymore over this.
… Emotional issues may not have been resolved.
“I’ll tell the team leader to adjust the two schedules.”
“Me too?”
Jo Min-joo pointed her finger at him and tilted her head.
“Uh, Minjoo, can you help Gaeun practice? “I acted opposite him before, but this time I’m a little busy.”
“Oh yes….”
[Name: Jo Min-joo]
[Current thought: Are you asking me to make up while practicing together…? . He looks like an old man.]
Jo Min-joo caught my intention right away.
But what is it about being an old man?
I’m still young at heart.
… Is thinking like this a sign that I am getting older?
I parked my car in the parking lot of the Lucky Seven Entertainment building and walked to pick Jo Min-joo and Koo Ga-eun back to their dorm.
“We’ll go on our own from here.”
“No, I have something to talk to you about for a moment.”
“Oh yes.”
[Name: Jo Min-joo]
[Current thought: Of course, since he is my boyfriend, it would have been a little cooler if he had told me to take him to the end.]
Oops.
At this point, it became obvious that I had no dating experience.
I’ll have to use it next time.
You can’t catch a bus that has already passed….
In the afternoon, we came to the front door of the accommodation where Sweets and Yeom Seon-jeong were staying.
Jo Min-ju entered her password and opened the door.
“Wow, are you here?”
Yeom Seon-jeong came out with a bright expression and greeted Jo Min-joo and Gu Ga-eun.
… Naked.
Why is everyone not wearing clothes at home like this, Tomoe too?
“Producer!”
When Yeom Seon-jeon found me, she cowered, feeling a little embarrassed.
But she didn’t even cover it with her hand, she just stared at my face and blushed.
“Seonjeong, go and get dressed…” .”
“Yes, yes…” ? In times like this, isn’t it the time to bow down and hug the princess, throwing her on the bed and having s*x with her? ?”
“No, so come get dressed. “I have something to say for a moment.”
“Oh, it’s been a while since I met you…” . All right… ….”
Yeom Seon-jeong entered the room with a disappointed expression.
In her otaku-like imagination, I, an otaku in my own right, stuck out my tongue to her.
If you think about it the other way around, you’re saying that you want to do that with me….
“Then let’s go in. “Mister, have a good night with Seon Seon-ni.”
“Thank you for your hard work today because of me…” !”
“Okay, don’t study too hard and sleep on time.”
While Yeom Seon-jeon was changing her clothes, Jo Min-joo and Koo Ga-eun greeted me and entered the dormitory.
By the way, did Jo Min-joo misunderstand that I called him to do something with Yeom Seon-jeong?
Do you think Jo Min-joo is a horny man who always reveals women?
It wouldn’t be strange if it was perceived that way, but….
Yeom Seon-jeon came back to me wearing her clothes.
But the clothes were dolphin pants and a cropped round tee that slightly showed the navel.
The round cut is quite deep, so you can see her cleavage.
[Name: Yeomseonjeong]
[Current thought: I prepared this because I thought people would like clothes like this, but I wonder if they won’t attack me… ? I want you to treat me like an animal… ♡ I held it so hard that it bruised… ♡]
“Ha… ♡”
… I didn’t react at all, but Yeom Seon-jeon was alone and gasping for breath.
I was planning to just talk to her at a real cafe and then send her back to her dorm, but I felt like she would get really upset.
Secretary Jeong Song-i tapped my arm and whispered.
“Just give it to me. “We’ll make you feel good.”
“… ….”
Ah, it’s not you, the women, who are giving it, but me, the man, who is giving it to you?
I felt like the relationship between men and women had somehow reversed.
3P is installed by default….
“Shall we go home?”
“Yes, yes…” !”
Yeom Seon-jeong turned around and screamed.
“I’ll come to the producer’s house and stay for a day!!”
Inside, “Okay.” I heard Jo Min-ju answer.
Finally, Yeom Seon-jeong closed her front door.
[Name: Yeomseonjeong]
[Current thoughts: I don’t think I can wait until I get home to the producer, but I’m just going to play outside and stay here… ♡]
First, I thought about how to appease Yeomseonjeong who was in heat.
No matter what, I can’t play outside with my idol.
The aftereffects of being caught were too great.
After all, it would be better to make perverted demands to perverts, right?
“So, is it true that you don’t wear panties with dolphin pants?”
Of course I know it’s bullsh*t.
There’s no way I wouldn’t wear it.
But as if Yeom Seon-jeon had figured out my intention, she immediately opened the front door and hurried in.
And in less than 10 seconds she was out again.
“Oh, that’s right…” ♡”
“Shall we go home like this?”
“Yes, yes…” ♡”
Secretary Jeong Song-i next to me,
“Do you like that kind of thing… ?”
She whispered and gave him a slightly disgusted look.
… I’m sorry, your boyfriend is like this.

Jo Min-joo and Gu Ga-eun solved the problem after watching the online lecture.
Both of us held red colored pencils, exchanged workbooks with each other, and then looked at the answers and graded them.
In the September mock evaluation we took a month ago, both of us received scores that allowed us to easily be accepted into the university we were applying to.
Even so, there is still one month left until the day of the college entrance exam.
It was a time when I had to be very nervous as a test taker.
Jo Min-joo was worried that even though they were applying to the same department at the same university, only one of them would get accepted.
Fortunately, the amount of red rain in Gu Ga-eun’s workbook has decreased….
“Can we really do things in parallel? Musical.”
“We have to do it in parallel…” !”
“Uncle, I told you not to lose sleep, but you probably should.”
“Yes, I was prepared… !!”
Goo Ga-eun has a bright expression and a burning desire for challenge.
He probably started out as an idol with this feeling, Jo Min-ju thought.
I was worried because even Jo Min-ju had no friend like Gu Ga-eun.
Because Goo Ga-eun had this spirit of challenge, she also met Jo Min-joo.
“Ga-eun, are you a little jealous because I’m getting closer to Seon-un?”
“Oh, no… ! I wasn’t jealous…….”
Gu Ga-eun lowers her head and blushes slightly.
Jo Min-joo already knew.
At times like this, Goo Ga-eun says she is lying because she is embarrassed.
Probably the same for idols and musical actors,
Jo Min-joo thought that “She” Was a better term for Goo Ga-eun than for herself.
I had no intention of making Gu Ga-eun feel left out.
She must have sensed a difference in the way she spoke about producer Gil.
“I’m sorry.”
“You don’t have to be sorry….”
Jo Min-joo got up from his seat and stood in front of Gu Ga-eun’s chair.
Then she bent her waist and hugged Gu Ga-eun tightly.
“My favorite man is you, but my favorite female friend is you.”
Such cheesy language is not my area of expertise.
Jo Min-joo smiled while speaking to himself.
“Uh, yeah… ! Me too… !!”
When Jo Min-joo was having a hard time with her mother, the person who stayed by her side was Goo Ga-eun.
Producer Lim Boo-gil solved the problem neatly, while Koo Ga-eun supported Jo Min-joo emotionally.
She thought that it was these two people who made Jo Min-joo what she is today.
“Ga-eun.”
“Yes… ?”
“Are you seriously not interested in dating him?”
“What, what…?” ?”
If Gu Ga-eun feels left out because Yeom Seon-jeong and Jo Min-joo are talking about producer Im Boo-gil,
An easy solution would be to make Gu Ga-eun a member of Producer Lim Boo-gil’s harem.
“Gaeun came this far thanks to you.”
“Well, that’s just…” . I don’t really know what it means to like a guy… ….”
Her love begins with realizing her own feelings.
Does Koo Ga-eun really have no feelings for producer Lim Boo-gil?
Or maybe she has a heart but she doesn’t realize it herself.
“If you happen to like him in the future, feel free to tell me. “Then we will do our best to help you date him.”
“Ah, okay… !”
Jo Min-ju lightly stroked Gu Ga-eun’s head.
“Whatever you do, do your best in this musical.”
“Yes… !”
“But there is something wrong with you.”
“Hmph… ….”
It was Jo Min-joo who inadvertently burst into laughter at Gu Ga-eun’s fall.
