“It’s a sculpture, a sculpture. Oh, my God, I guess you’ve been working out more lately”
As soon as he saw Lee Wooyeon in a dark navy suit, coach Ma Jinyoung fussed and admired him. He was a director known for his eccentricity, and word was that no matter how famous a photo model was, he would use all kinds of abusive language if he didn’t like it.
“Thank you. I look forward to your kind cooperation.”
When Lee Wooyeon greeted him with a gentle smile, the faces of not only the director but also the female staff around him turned bright.
‘When Lee Wooyeon first walked into our office, I thought he was crazy at first. He was dressed badly, and his hair was wild. So I called the guard to kick him out, ha, I’m crazy. I shouldn’t have seen his face then.’
It was the 18th glass of drunken CEO Kim Seunghak. CEO Kim said this every time and emptied the glass at once.
‘It was perfect.’
He muttered the word with the most unhappy face in the world and began to drink again.
It was perfect. Inseop quietly pondered on the words by himself. Lee Wooyeon, dressed from head to toe, was perfect. Their eyes met. Wooyeon gave Inseop an eye smile. He quickly lowered his gaze. He tried to maintain a blank expression by pinching his thighs in case he would smile without realizing. Lee Wooyeon glanced at Inseop, swallowed his laughter, and began to discuss today’s concept with the director.
Choi Inseop looked around, rubbing his tingling thighs.
“Who was the female model?”
Inseop also perked his ears because he had been curious about it for a while. The people at the door began to mutter before the answer came back. His eyes naturally turned toward it. Inseop, who casually turned his head, gasped.
Rich platinum blonde hair, green eyes, and a perfectly proportioned face made him feel like she was a fairy from a fairy tale rather than a person. The sensuous body, narrowly covered by a black slip dress, was dizzying.
“…It’s not a human being, it’s an elf, an elf.”
“She’s really pretty. Look at the length of her legs”
Inseop blinked his big eyes a couple of times. He didn’t expect a foreign model to come. She was quite famous. Naima Kempman. Even to Inseop, who was an outsider, she was a model he had heard of.
Before he knew it, the two were greeting each other and talking naturally.
“Lee Wooyeon speaks English very well.”
“Just like a native speaker.”
“Why, you know what? Rumor is that Lee Wooyeon is an illegitimate child of a famous foreign conglomerate family…”
The staff whispered in a small voice as if they were conscious of Lee Wooyeon’s manager standing next to them.
Lee Wooyeon studied foreign languages hard for his work. The rumor was not true. Normally, he would have responded to rumors according to the manual given as a manager. However, Inseop could not say anything when he heard the obvious murmur. Inseop watched Lee Wooyeon on the scene after a long time.
“But the two look good together.”
“I know. Usually, pictures don’t sell when it’s with a foreign model.”
No matter how good a man and a beautiful woman were, it was difficult for Asians and Westerners to harmonize with each other. There is a subtle sense of incongruity not only from differences in appearance, but also from cultural differences such as attitude and gestures. In severe cases, it even felt like a man and a woman were photographed separately and synthesized. So advertisers would model the same race as possible. It was not racism, but because consumers often perceive the heterogeneity as unsophisticated. In short, it was a combination that had to be taken well.
“You should know that Lee Woo-yeon’s chemistry is saved.”
“Even if he takes a picture with a doll, there will be chemistry.”
He heard a laugh.
People whispered as if they were watching a rare scene, but it was a familiar scene for Inseop. He even felt like he went back to those days in his memory. Lee Wooyeon was recognized as a distant being.
His heart throbbed. Oh, he definitely took his medicine before he came out. Inseop was able to be in physical condition by carefully pressing near the heart with his palm. Perhaps it was just a passing pain, but the heart quickly returned to its usual state.
Filming has begun.
“Okay, get closer, that’s right. That’s great. That’s all right. I like your eyes and pose”
Coach Ma Jinyoung, who was known to be picky in the industry, only shouted, “It’s good.” Lee Wooyeon skillfully led the female model and continued filming. It was a friendly atmosphere throughout the shoot. The two talked so affectionately that it was hard to believe that they met for the first time today. In particular, the female model openly expressed her favor with Lee Wooyeon.
“Mr. Lee Woo-yeon, what if there is a scandal? The manager should keep an eye on him.”
A lighting staff member standing next to him joked with In-seop.
“Let’s do that”
“Manager must be tired. Everything will be a scandal for a famous and handsome celebrity like this actor. The women will be in line.”
“Haha…”
Inseop smiled awkwardly and hesitated.
What the lighting staff said was actually true. Lee Wooyeon always had women who stood in line.
In restaurants, department stores, and even when the two of them went to Milan. Women showed up for him without breathing. It was the first time he learned that women can be so active in expressing theri? mind.
“Is Lee Wooyeon dating someone? I saw in the last article that you had a secret late-night date with Ms. S. The Y in the initial article was Lee Wooyeon, right?”
‘Miss S or X, it’s not me, so don’t worry about that crap. I don’t even have enough time to talk to Inseop late at night. Who would I meet?’
Lee Wooyeon’s voice, which was whispering affectionately, seemed to be heard in his ears.
Inseop shook his head with his face down to hide his puffy cheeks.
“Hey, how can you ask that to the manager? Would he be honest with you?”
“Hahahaha. Is that so?”
As soon as the person who started the rumor was about to say that Lee Wooyeon would never,
“Wow, look at that.”
Someone whispered in an admiring voice. Inseop raised his head to look.
Lee Wooyeon was holding the female model from behind and burying his face around her neck. The dress cloth became tight due to the tightly hugged arms, revealing the model’s chest shape. Even though they knew they shouldn’t, they were all instinctively attracted to the female model.
But.
..
A dark blue suit and white shirt, a watch visible through the sinewy wrists, and a beautifully shaped hand. And the face of a man smiling gracefully.
Choi Inseop was inadvertently distracted by that man.
His mouth was dry and irritated. He swallowed without realizing it.
“Hahaha. Manager, did you just swallow your saliva? You look so calm.”
“Hey, it’s natural for a man.”
“Hey, be quiet.”
The camera director shouted angrily. Lee Wooyeon and the model’s eyes naturally turned toward Inseop. Their eyes met. Inseop quickly turned his head. Did he hear that?
“Wooyeon, I liked that pose just now. You can hug her more tightly. He’s so sexy in a suit right now. Try to be more wild.”
The camera shutter sound continued constantly.
“Well, I’d like to…I’ll be back.”
Inseop, muttering to no one in particular, left in a hurry.
His heart thumped and his face flushed. He was embarrassed because he felt like he had caught his greed. He wanted to hide in a mouse hole. As he was walking across the corridor, he saw a sign saying “Emergency Exit.” Inseop went straight to the emergency exit.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”
He tore his hair as he sat down in a crumbling position.
“Idiot, idiot…Ha. I’m crazy.”
Manager is disqualified. There was no such thing as a crazy human being who swallowed his saliva while watching the celebrity he was managing.
“…I want to die.”
Inseop muttered, looking down at the iron stairs lonely.
There was no way that Lee Wooyeon didn’t hear it. What should he say? How can he make an excuse to move on? Should he say that he drooled? Or should he say that it was because he thought of the lemon pie that his grandmother used to bake?…Lemon pie would be more realistic, right?
While Inseop was walking, holding his head, the iron door opened.
“Uh? Lee Wooyeon’s manager. Why are you doing that there?”
The staff rushed in. Inseop jumped up from his seat.
“Oh, it’s just… “
While looking at Lee Wooyeon, he swallowed his saliva without realizing it, and he ran away because he thought he was caught…. he couldn’t say that. Inseop’s eyes, who was desperately looking for excuses, looked at a can placed in a corner with cigarette butts piled up.
“I, I’m going to smoke a cigarette.”
“Manager, do you smoke? That’s unexpected. We also came to smoke one because it’s a break.”
“I know. I didn’t think he could drink or smoke at all. When I first saw him, I thought he was a high school student. I was surprised to hear that you are Lee Wooyeon’s manager.”
“I’m good at drinking and smoking. I’m good at it because I’ve been doing it for a long time.”
He couldn’t drink or smoke, but he had to get over this situation naturally for now.
“But why aren’t you smoking?”
.
“I left my cigarette in the car.”
Inseop replied, gently pressing one chest with his hand. His conscience flinched when he remembered his mother’s voice telling him not to go back to Korea and cheat on someone. A staff member with a mustache handed Inseop a cigarette.
“Have a smoke. You don’t have to pay me back.
“Oh, look, thank you. ··”
Inseop took a cigarette by surprise. The man standing opposite lit the fire. Inseop politely held a cigarette with both hands and lit it.
“Don’t you think the shoot will end earlier than you think?””
“I know. I’ve never seen that devil say that he’s so good throughout the shoot.”
The devil was director Ma Jinyoung’s nickname. When shooting advertisements or pictorials, it was also important to understand the director’s tendency, so personality was always investigated in advance.
Inseop tried to blend in with people’s conversations, nodding next to them with a cigarette.
“Lee Wooyeon is so good at this. He was leading the shooting today. Uh, I’m sorry. His manager is next to us.”
“No, it’s okay. Speak comfortably.”
It was the practice of this industry to be respected as an actor in the front, but to be called only by name in the back.
“But the manager isn’t smoking?”
“What? Oh, yes.”
Inseop answered in surprise when he found a cigarette in his hand. The staff’s eyes were on Inseop.
What should he do?
He’d never tasted a single smoke. Only once, Jennie brought an unknown butt and took a sip of it, saying it was marijuana. Even then, I was lying down for an hour, feeling nauseous at a sip.
“If you’re uncomfortable because of us, should we leave?””
“No, it’s not like that. It’s okay.”
If the manager was arrogant, even the celebrity in charge would be embroiled in a scandal. No other people was as sensitive to rumors as this.
He isn’t going to die from just this
Inseop quickly held a cigarette in his mouth and breathed in. At the same time that the smoky cigarette smoke came into his throat.
“Cough, cough…”
Inseop coughed like crazy and coughed up the cigarette smoke. Not only his throat but also his nostrils were burning.
“Are you okay?”
Everyone looked at the young manager coughing with a bright red face with worried eyes. Inseop waved his hand like an adult and hinted that he was okay, but in fact, he was dying.
“Coug, cough. I’m sorry.”
Large eyes with tears in them stimulated people’s sympathy. The man who gave the cigarette handed him a bottle of water in his hand. Inseop took the bottled water and tried to drink water, but the iron door opened again. Lee Wooyeon came in. With the unexpected appearance of the big star, everyone on the spot stopped moving.
It was the same for Inseop.
“Here you are. For a long time…”
Lee Woo-yeon stopped talking when his eyes met Inseop, who turned around. His eyes narrow. Inseop, who was better than anyone else at reading Lee Wooyeon’s expression, accurately read the feelings he felt at this moment.
He was mad.
Lee Wooyeon’s eyes were smiling but not smiling. According to CEO Kim’s expression, he was afraid to see them in his dream.
“I found you.”
Lee Wooyeon stepped closer to Inseop.
And then,
“But why are you crying?”
His big hand held Inseop’s chin and lifted it. The words omitted later seemed to be only heard in Inseop’s ears.
Which son of a bitch made you cry?
“I didn’t cry. While smoking…”
Inseop lifted the cigarette in his hand, but the blue life that fluttered in Lee Wooyeon’s eyes rarely disappeared.
“The manager smoked?””
“Yeah, well, let me go to the bathroom for a minute.”
Inseop bowed his head and left. As soon as he closed the iron door, he ran along the corridor. Inseop quickly hid himself after discovering the warehouse where the equipment was piled up.
He’s an adult and he just smoked at his free will. He knew it in his head, but his heart fluttered like a child caught doing something bad. He was sweating profusely.
“It’s the worst.”
He murmured and banged his head against the wall.
“What’s the worst?
“Oh my god.”
Lee Wooyeon, who appeared without making a sound, was looking down at Inseop with a smile. Inseop was going to beg Lee Wooyeon to make some footstep sounds someday if he had a chance. It was really, really bad for the heart.
“You said you were going to the bathroom. The bathroom is over there.”
“Oh, yes. I need to talk to you for a second.”
“I thought you were seducing me because you said you were going to the bathroom and you were going to the other side.”
Lee Wooyeon smiled as he swept up Inseop’s sweaty hair.
Choi Inseop liked and loved Lee Wooyeon with all his heart, but sometimes he was genuinely scared.
“Did you finish the call?”
“…Yes.”
Inseop dodged his gaze, answering vaguely.
“By the way, Inseop.”
“Yes.”
“Do you smoke?”“
“Well, I thought I’ll just try smoking it. Everyone was smoking, so I thought they usually do.”
Lee Wooyeon pulled his lips and laughed. Then he reached out and took away the cigarette Inseop was holding. Lee Wooyeon breathed heavily with a cigarette in his mouth. The sound of the cigarette burning split the quiet air. Cigarette smoke flowed out of the lips of Lee Wooyeon. There was no pictorial even though he was only smoking.
“You usually smoke a lot.”
“…”Yes”
He didn’t do anything wrong. He didn’t do anything wrong.
Although he was constantly repeating to himself, Choi Inseop unconsciously looked back and confirmed his retreat. Lee Wooyeon smiled low at Inseop.
“Don’t smoke things like this.”
A drowsy and sweet voice gently admonishes Inseop. Then, he lowered his head and whispered in Inseop’s ear.
“It’s not like I’m going to eat normal people’s shit.”
“What?!”
Inseop doubted his ears for the contextless obscene rumors. Lee Wooyeon continued with a smile.
“If you smoke something like this, your semen tastes like shit.”
Then he rubbed the cigarette against the wall and bent it. Inseop held his breath with a start as if the cigarette fire had touched his skin.
Inseop’s semen is delicious, but it’s a waste.”
“…thank you…”
Inseop received praise from Lee Wooyeon, who was close to violence, with his bright red face down. Lee Wooyeon relaxedly appreciated his helplessness because he couldn’t decide whether it was right to say thank you.
Cute and pitiful. Such a part was mercilessly struck by Lee Wooyeon’s taste.
Fuck, he wanted to do aal sorts of things.
Lee Wooyeon swallowed the curse inside and bent down to Inseop’s lips lightly and kissed him.
“Someone would see..”.
“Don’t worry. I’m going to dig a hole in their eyes.”
Lee Wooyeon bit Inseop’s lower lip and whispered. Inseop shook his head desperately.
“You’ll be in trouble. You can’t.”
Inseop, who did not do so at all, pushed Lee Wooyeon with strength. It was a humble force, but Lee Wooyeon stepped back.
“I’m sorry.”
Lee Wooyeon bent his eyebrows at Inseop’s sudden apology.
“It’s my first day, and I think I’ve only caused you trouble. It bothers me…”
It was a different meaning, but it really bothered him. Throughout the filming with the female model, Lee Wooyeon was looking at Inseop. Inseop, who tried to act as a manager pretending to be normal, was scared whenever he touched the woman, and his lower part was tingling because he was being so cute. The reason why he suggested to the filming director to take a break was because he thought about taking Inseop to a corner and taking a step back.
“I guess I’m not used to it yet.”
He seemed to have a drooping tail and ears that didn’t exist.
It was not that Lee Wooyeon had no sympathy at all. Compared to the level that others felt, the feeling was only minimal. Lee Wooyeon decided to change the subject by generously using the feelings that were not long to Inseop.
“Do you like me that much, by the way? Enough to make you drool?”
Inseop blinked in surprise at Lee Wooyeon’s sudden attack. He came to his senses closely, saying, “It’s not that I’m drooling,” and making excuses in a crawling voice.
Lee Wooyeon noticed Inseop, who was looking his way with rapture throughout the filming. The gaze of a boy-like love affair in front of his crush attracted his taste. When he heard the sound of him swallowing, he almost had an erection during the shoot.
Fuck, he looked so cute when he ate him.
Lee Wooyeon continued his pursuit while looking at Inseop.
“No, not to me. Are you gulping your saliva for the girl next to me?”
“No!”
Like a fish poured into hot water, Inseop jumped up and down
He refuted it.
“Then you’re drooling for someone else.”
“Lemon Pie: …”
“Lemon pie? Who is it?”
He asked with a smile, but Lee Wooyeon’s voice was fierce. This was the Lee Wooyeon, who also said he wanted to twist his neck from time to time to plant Kate.
Lee Wooyeon was so jealous that he looked so indifferent to the world. Inseop knew that if he did not give a proper answer here, he would not be able to go home alive today.
“Lee Wooyeon. I drooled when I saw Lee Wooyeon. I’m sorry if I offended you.”
Inseop chose to be honest. Shame will follow, but through one experience or another, he concluded that this was for the better.
Lee Woo-eon smiled lightly, brushing Inseop’s head.
“Okay. Since you’ve been honest with me, I’ll give you something delicious after the photo shoot as a prize.””
“… yes.”
The man’s words to feed him delicious food didn’t sound straightforward. It was beyond redemption, really. Inseop’s face turned red and rubbed his cheek with the back of his hand.
“I should get going now.”
Lee Wooyeon checked his watch. He heard that his watch today was worth a house, not a car. Even with such a watch in front of him, Inseop found himself casually looking at the man’s wrist, not the watch.
…He shouldn’t keep looking at him like this. He would be disqualified as a manager.
Lee Wooyeon, who saw Inseop’s eyes drooping, clicked his tongue.
“Inseop.”
“What?”
“Will you do me a favor?”
“Yes!”
Inseop’s eyes sparkled at the thought that he could help him.
