Legendary Superstar-Chapter 109: New Drama Opportunity

"You should. Keeping cash like this isn't safe, and it's easier to manage your money with a bank account." Donghyun let out a sigh, s haking his head in amusement.

Minjae nodded. He hadn't really thought much about his finances before, but now that he was earning steadily, it seemed like a necessary step. It was also a good way to track his finances than just counting bills.

"I'll open one soon." He uttered.

"Good. I'll help you with it later." Donghyun took a sip of his water. "Anyway, how do you feel? Your first major campaign shoot is done."

Minjae leaned back slightly, thinking for a moment.

"It feels… surreal. I was nervous at first, but once I got into it, everything just flowed. And hearing that even the CEO was impressed makes it all feel worth it."

"That's the spirit." Donghyun grinned. "It's not just about looking good in front of the camera, it's about selling the brand. And you did that well today."

"Thanks hyung," Minjae appreciated his manager's words.

Just then, the waiter arrived with their food. The sizzling sound of the grilled galbi filled the air, and the rich aroma of doenjang jjigae made Minjae's stomach growl again.

The seafood pancake was golden and crispy, placed in the middle of the table, and the rice wine was poured into small glasses.

Minjae picked up his chopsticks eagerly.

"Let's eat, hyung," he said, his eyes shining at the sight of the food.

Donghyun chuckled. "Go ahead, you deserve it."

Minjae took his first bite of the galbi, and the savory, slightly sweet flavor melted in his mouth. It was just what he needed after a long day. The doenjang jjigae was warm and comforting, balancing the richness of the meat.

As they ate, Donghyun spoke up again.

"By the way, there's something else I wanted to tell you."

Minjae looked up, chewing. "What is it?"

Donghyun smiled knowingly.

"There's a drama casting call coming up. And I think you'd be perfect for it."

Minjae blinked. He was quite surprised by it.

"Isn't it too early for that?" he asked as he set down his chopsticks.

Donghyun shook his head with a small smile.

"No, not at all. It's just a casting call for now. The actual production won't start until the second quarter of next year, so you'll have plenty of time to prepare and even take a break after your first drama." Donghyun explained.

He knew that it was also not viable to start filming another drama when Minjae's first drama hadn't even been released yet.

Hearing that, Minjae felt a little more at ease. He wasn't against it, but jumping into a drama so soon was not advantageous at all.

"Alright," he nodded. "I want to see the script if there's one available."

"I'll get it for you," Donghyun assured him. "You don't have to decide right away, but I think it could be a good opportunity."

Minjae hummed in response, thinking it over as he took another bite of his food. His second drama… everything felt fast but it sounded exciting.

For now, he would focus on finishing his meal and resting. He could worry about the audition later.

After their meal, Minjae and Donghyun left the restaurant, stepping into the cool night air. The streets were still alive with people strolling and chatting, the neon signs from nearby stores casting a soft glow on the pavement.

"Let's get you home," Donghyun said, unlocking the car. "You've had a long day."

Minjae silently nodded, sliding into the passenger seat. As they drove, he leaned back, his mind still lingering on the conversation about the drama casting.

Donghyun wouldn't have brought it up if he didn't believe in him.

[Host, a new opportunity arise!]

Minjae nearly sighed at the familiar voice in his head.

[Side Quest: Second Drama Opportunity]

[Review the script for the casting call and decide whether to audition.]

[Bonus Reward: 5,000 EXP in if you land the role.]

'Not the system giving me side quests now…' Minjae thought to himself.

The system had been relatively quiet during his shoot, only appearing after the job was done. But now, it was pushing him forward again.

"Hyung, when do you think you can get the script?" he asked, glancing at Donghyun.

"Probably in a few days," Donghyun replied. He chuckled. It seemed like Minjae suddenly became curious about it.

"I'll reach out to the casting director and see if I can get an early look at it."

Minjae nodded. "Alright. I'll check it out when you have it."

The rest of the ride was quiet, and when they arrived at Minjae's apartment, Donghyun parked the car and turned to him.

"Get some rest," he said. "Tomorrow, you can relax. No schedules for now."

"That sounds nice. Thanks, hyung." Minjae smiled. He could feel that his body was also tired.

With that, he stepped out of the car and headed inside. The moment he entered his apartment, exhaustion finally settled over him.

He dropped his bag by the door, stretched, and took a deep breath. His first major campaign was complete, and a new opportunity was already on the horizon.

Minjae walked toward his bedroom, rubbing the back of his neck. His body was exhausted, but his mind remained active, replaying the events of the day.

He changed into comfortable clothes and flopped onto his bed, staring at the ceiling. The warmth of the blankets immediately relaxed his sore muscles.

'A second drama already, huh?' He let out a quiet sigh. He hadn't even seen the results of his first drama yet, but here he was, already being considered for another.

'Let's just see the script first,' he breathed out. With the help of his [Know the Future] skill, he'd be able to see if the drama would be worth his time.

Minjae shifted to his side and yawned before closing his eyes.

He'll think about it again later.

For now, all he wanted was a good night's sleep.
