Superstar From Age 0-Chapter 477:
Chapter 477:
[Are there still a lot of people?
-No, they are gradually leaving.
An employee from Team 2, who was squeezed among the crowd at the Korea National University auditorium, sent a message to Ahn Da Ho.
He was monitoring the situation outside, waiting for Seo-jun and his group to come out. (He still thought they were inside the auditorium.)
It seemed that most people were reluctant to leave, but they also felt sorry for their families who came to attend the entrance ceremony with them.
Besides, there were many things to see around Korea National University, especially on a day like this when they could get a glimpse of the school their children would attend.
[What about the reporters?
-The reporters are also leaving.
-It seems that Mr. Jung leaving first had a big impact.
The reporters were not allowed to enter the auditorium where the entrance ceremony was held.
Of course, there were some who sneaked in, but most of them waited outside for Seo-jun to appear.
The reporters who knew Seo-jun, who was rarely seen in public, were on high alert, scanning the students’ faces for any sign of him.
But then, there was a commotion inside the building. Seo-jun had shown up, and he was with Director Ryan and Director Jonathan.
The reporters flocked to the scene.
Unlike the ordinary people who only took a day off or had no intention of waiting for hours, the reporters considered this their job.
They could wait all day if they had to. For them, stakeouts were a basic skill for getting exclusive stories.
‘Well, not exactly exclusive.’
The SNS was already flooded with sightings and photos of Seo-jun and his friends. It was not a scoop anymore.
But they couldn't just keep the reporters waiting outside the auditorium all day.
It was chilly outside, and if they felt like they had been fooled, they might harbor resentment against Seo-jun and his company.
That could lead to baseless and malicious articles.
‘Seo-jun wouldn't be affected much by that.’
Ahn Da Ho was confident that he could minimize the damage by using lawsuits or fans’ power. He had done it before.
But if that resentment spread to Cocoa Entertainment or Seo-jun's friends, Ahn Da Ho wouldn't be able to do anything about it. And Seo-jun would be hurt by that as well.
‘A moderate relationship is best.’
The reporters could create a good or bad image with just one word in their articles. So it was best to maintain a decent relationship with them, even if not a very good one.
So Ahn Da Ho asked his Team 2 employee to inform some of the reporters who were close to Cocoa Entertainment that Seo-jun had already left the auditorium.
The reporters knew who was friendly with which agency, so when they saw Mr. Jung and other Cocoa-friendly reporters leaving without hesitation, they realized that they had missed their chance and left one by one.
‘Is that it then?’
Ahn Da Ho let out a light sigh and looked up. He saw Seo Eun-hye and Lee Min-jun smiling warmly at him from across the table. Ahn Da Ho awkwardly smiled back and rolled his eyes.
“Ah, I'm sorry. I had some work left…”
“It's okay. It's Seo-jun's work, right?”
“Thanks to you, Mr. Ahn Da Ho, we can enjoy ourselves without worrying. Please take good care of our Seo-jun in the future.”
The couple had been waiting patiently for him without touching their food while he was busy with his work. Ahn Da Ho picked up his chopsticks nervously and shook his hand slightly.
“…Yes. Don't worry.”
For a brief moment, he hesitated and smiled as usual. The couple, who had known Ahn Da Ho for 12 years, widened their eyes and looked at each other.
“Jeyuk? Jeyuk? /Hard to pronounce./”
“/But it was delicious, right?/”
Seo-jun asked Director Ryan and Jonathan, who nodded in response. The soy sauce and red pepper paste marinated pork stir-fry were both delicious dishes that suited Seo-jun's taste as well.
“Excuse me… Could you please give me your autograph?”
An employee who had been waiting for them to finish their meal came over with a paper and a pen. The acting department students who were hiding behind him looked at him with admiration as if he was a hero.
“Yes, sure. It was delicious. Please tell the owner too!”
Seo-jun gladly took the paper and pen from him. The employee quickly cleared away the dishes that filled the table.
“Come again!”
The owner must have heard him from the kitchen, as he peeked his head out and said. Seo-jun laughed and replied, “I will!”
Seo-jun looked at the generous paper and smiled. He asked Director Ryan and Jonathan.
“/Do you want to sign too?/”
“/Sure, why not?/”
Director Ryan agreed and pulled a paper in front of him. He picked up a pen and the employee and the acting department students gasped.
“/Can I do it too?/”
“/Of course./”
Jonathan felt a bit embarrassed to act like a celebrity when his work was not that famous, but he signed with enthusiasm. He vowed to come back next time with his own skills, not because of Jun or his uncle.
“Thank you! I’ll put it in the best place.”
The employee who got the autographs of a superstar and a Hollywood director carefully held the paper and headed to the cashier with excitement.
Seo-jun watched him with a smile and saw his seniors from the acting department. They had finished their meal long ago, but they didn't leave. They were focused on Director Ryan, hoping to exchange a word or two with him. Seo-jun didn't want to bother them, but he also wanted to help them fulfill their wish.
He understood their feelings.
He felt the same way when he met the directors he liked and respected.
Seo-jun whispered to Director Ryan with a smile.
“/Director, would you mind giving your autographs to my seniors?/”
“/Sure, I liked their play too. If they want it./”
Director Ryan agreed readily and Seo-jun walked towards his seniors with a smile. The acting department students widened their eyes as Seo-jun approached them. Hwang Do-yoon, cha Yu-na, Kim Min-woo greeted him with bright smiles.
“Did you enjoy your meal? It was good, right?”
“Yes, the director liked it too.”
“Really?”
Hwang Do-yoon smiled brightly. He was the one who recommended this place to Seo-jun.
‘Past me! You did well!’
“By the way, if anyone wants the director's autograph…”
Before Seo-jun could finish his sentence, all thirteen of them raised their hands.
It was as if they had practiced for it, their hands went up at the same time in perfect sync. And they were silent, just shining their eyes with eagerness. It was a scene that showed their sincerity towards the director.
The couple, Ahn Da Ho, Director Ryan and Jonathan smiled at their sight.
The restaurant turned into a mini autograph session.
The acting department students and the employees lined up to get Director Ryan's autograph.
It was Hwang Do-yoon, cha Yu-na, Kim Min-woo and the executives’ turn first. Then it was the actors who appeared on stage.
They couldn't believe that they met Director Ryan again and got his autograph after he watched their play.
It felt like they had won the lottery.
“/You were the lead in the play, right? I enjoyed it./”
“…Yes…?”
Director Ryan spoke in simple English, but he was too nervous to hear anything.
This content is taken from fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm.
“You were the lead in the play, right? He said he enjoyed it.”
Seo-jun translated for him and the senior's face brightened.
“Oh, thank you, thank you!”
“/But I noticed that you had some difficulty expressing your emotions…/”
“But he noticed that you had some difficulty expressing your emotions…”
Seo-jun translated Ryan's comments without a single error.
Even if Ryan used difficult words, seo-jun was able to find the Korean words that matched the English words and explain them well.
It was easy to interpret because they were all Korean and English words related to acting that were used often.
Ryan's intentions were conveyed to the seniors without any mistranslation.
It was not a long comment, but as Ryan's comments continued, the seniors who were initially surprised and startled soon focused their eyes as if they were shining. They listened carefully as if they did not want to miss a single word.
Seeing the seniors like that, the other students who were standing in line behind them also started to get nervous.
They looked back on their performance in the play and felt a little breathless with fear.
They felt like they had acted awkwardly and messed up all their lines.
But along with that fear, expectations also sprouted.
A comment from a Hollywood director…!
Some of them felt sorry to just leave this historic moment in their memory and took out their phones to prepare for recording.
Everyone else followed suit and took out their phones.
The next student who was unprepared for the comment gladly recorded it for his friend who was listening from the middle.
“I'm so jealous.”
“Me too. I should have done the play.”
The student council members who were busy with student council work and could not participate in this play, such as Hwang Do-yoon and Cha Yu-na, looked at them with sincere regret.
But the comments for others could also apply to themselves.
They were mostly struggling with similar problems.
So the five students who did not participate in the play also paid attention to Ryan and Seo-jun's voices.
After a short comment and a mini-signing event, the staff of Team 2 arrived at the restaurant with a car.
Seo-jun decided to go with Ryan and Jonathan to see them off at the airport, and his mom and dad decided to go home separately.
“/See you next time. Director Ryan. Jonathan./”
“/Have a safe trip./”
“/Take care!/”
Ryan and Jonathan, who exchanged greetings with the couple, got into the car.
Ahn Da Ho sat in the driver's seat.
The couple spoke to Seo-jun, who was getting into the car.
“Are you going to the hotel and then to the airport?”
“Yeah. I’ll go straight home from the airport.”
“Okay. Be careful.”
“But Seo-jun. Ahn Da Ho…”
“Huh?”
“Never mind, let's talk at home.”
“? Okay.”
Seo-jun tilted his head at his mom and dad's hesitation and shrugged his shoulders and got into the car.
The door closed and the car drove away. The couple looked at it with a little worried eyes.
They could not forget Ahn Da Ho's weak appearance that had passed by for a moment.
“I hope it's nothing serious…”
“I know, right.”
The worried Seo-eun-hye and Lee Min-jun also headed home soon.
In the meantime, the restaurant became noisy.
“Sister! Put the sign here!”
“Seo-jun fan club! Gather together!”
“Wow…! Can I take a picture?!”
While they were putting up the three people's signs, the door of the restaurant opened with a bang.
Students who seemed to have run with all their strength, sweating and panting, appeared.
They were students from acting and film departments who had connections with each other.
“Director Ryan came?!”
“Why didn't you contact me sooner! I was right next door!”
“I couldn't contact you because it would turn into this in an instant. He came here for a meal.”
“Well, that's true but…!”
They said it was true, but they couldn't help but sigh with regret. Other students who heard the news also flocked to the restaurant, making it even more noisy.
