Possessed 10 Million Actors

Chapter 87

How can you use your hands?

He sounded as if he was planning something treacherous.

When I looked at him with a slightly embarrassed look, Jang Sunho waved his hand.

"I don't have a bad idea. It's hard to do something big even though there's not much time left until the award ceremony.

Jang Sunho said calmly and crossed his arms. His face was full of confidence.

"What are you going to do?"

"It's not a big deal. I'm just going to make sure that I can't bear it without giving an award to the actor."

"You can't bear it without giving it to me?"

"Yes. Even if the producers and writers of the network pretend not to, they are wary of public opinion. I don't know who the judges are, but neither do they."

"…."

"Anyway, leave this to me and just think about what you are going to say at the award ceremony."

So far, nothing that Jang Sunho has planned has harmed me.

No, I've always worked things out before I even noticed them, or led them in a better direction.

I decided to trust Jang Sunho and nodded.

"I see. Then I'll think about the prices."

I turned my attention to the bread the president of INSEA had bought me. It's unknown, but it's a very luxurious roll cake at first glance.

But my eyes went to the bread next to it. It is a bread with a cute character on the wrapper.

I used to eat it a lot when I was young because it tasted cheap, but lately, it has become difficult to get character stickers as they have suddenly become popular.

Looking at the bread in the basket, I thought about what to eat and tried to pick up the chocolate bread.

That was when Jang Sunho took the bread basket away from me.

"Actor. Other actors are checking their drinking water because the award ceremony is coming up, but you can't have a snack at all."

"…."

"I'll get you a bread commercial after the awards ceremony. Let's eat it then."

Jang Sunho said firmly. Earlier, I wanted to eat the bread because my mouth was bored, but when I told him not to, I really wanted to eat it.

With such a desperate heart, I looked at Jang Sunho with sad eyes.

"You can't look at me like that. And don't even think about eating something in secret. I can tell what you ate last night just by looking at your face.

Even the seeds didn't seem to work for Jang Sunho.

"I see …."

A YouTuber specializing in drama reviews, "Can of tuna left after eating," commonly referred to as "Can of eating."

Muknam Can, who began attracting subscribers with "Dream of the Sun Rising" and "In Spring Without Flowers," has grown rapidly in recent years with professional reviews, neat editing, and fast uploads.

Now, a popular YouTuber who is about to reach 700,000 subscribers. Muknam Can muttered while watching his YouTube channel.

"It was originally Kang Jinseok's fan channel."

(Singing "Woo-Woo-Woo-Woo-Woo").

Muknam's cell phone rang. It was a late call after 1 a.m. After checking the caller, he answered the phone with a slight sigh.

"Yes, sir."

[Oh, I'm sorry I left work]

"No, sir. How can I help you?"

[This is…]… [I'm sorry to ask you to do this after leaving work in 3 days]

As soon as I heard, "I'm sorry to ask you," I was worried about the food can. But he replied without losing his aloofness.

"Yes, yes."

[Can you come out tomorrow at 7?] We're in the final stages of preparing for the awards ceremony, but we don't have enough hands. I guess the newbies are not good enough.]

A premonition can make me cry at the senior's words. Like the phone call, Muknam Can left work three days after taking a nap at work, and now it's only been two hours since he left work.

"If you can't answer the phone after sleeping, you can go to work at 9 o'clock. I was awake the moment I got 700,000 subscribers ….'.

But I already picked up the phone. The Inkman said without showing.

"Okay, sir! Can I be in the studio tomorrow at seven?"

[Oh, thank you]. [Take a rest. You can come at 7:10]

"Yes!"

As soon as the call was over, Muknam Can leaned his neck back and looked at the ceiling. Then he sighed loudly.

"Poo-haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…."

For a moment, Muknam Can corrected himself again. Since this happened, I have been going to sleep after seeing 700,000 subscribers.

Oh, I'll check the e-mail.

As the number of subscribers increased, the Muknam Can channel also received several advertisements. It's not often, but every time I remembered, I checked Muknam.

But there was an unusual e-mail.

[Title: Hello, OS Entertainment….]

"—OS Enter?"

Then Muknam Can rushed to check the email.

——

From: Team Kang Jinseok of OS Entertainment, Team Leader Jang Sunho

To: Tuna can leftovers

Hello, Mr. Tuna Can Who Leftovers. I'm Jang Sunho from OS Entertainment.

As a drama fan, I always enjoy watching the YouTube videos you post.

I'm contacting you like this…

(omitted)

Please feel free to reply. Thank you very much.

H.P: 010-XXXX-XXXX

"…" What?"

It was quite a long email. The main point is to make a video about Jinseok and upload it to the channel.

In return, he said he would give a small advertising fee and a direct cam of Kang Jinseok during the making of "The Way They Chose," which has become the most popular topic lately.

The video that I even got permission from Netflix.

"Are you trying to do a viral in your agency?"

Whether you're an actor or an idol, there's no agency that doesn't promote virals. There are even agencies that directly run large SNS pretending to be fan accounts.

However, most of these cases are to promote newcomers or to "remember" unpopular celebrities to the public.

"Oh…. Maybe it's because of the year-end ceremony.

Jinseok's agency, which is raising its stock price, had no reason to do a viral event unless it was an award ceremony.

"Come to think of it, you were nominated for the Rookie Award and the Best Supporting Actor Award."

For Muknam Can, the Rookie Award was almost a foregone conclusion.

However, there were many opinions that the Best Supporting Actor award would be won by one of the actors of "Return Doctor Kim Chulsoo," which ended at the end of the year.

This is because viewers were more familiar with "Return Doctor Kim Chulsoo," which aired at the end of the year than "In Spring Without Flowers," which aired at the beginning of the year.

"You'd think that the impression of a new person would be somewhat stable, but when you're doing this…. "Are you going for the best supporting actor award?"

After thinking for a while, Muknam Can grinned.

"For me, there is no reason not to."

Although he was an employee of the broadcasting company, he had been a fan of Jinseok before.

Besides, he had already made a lot of highlight videos of Jinseok for his personal collection.

When Jinseok's agency included the making of "The Way They Chose", the number of views was sure to explode.

It's like relaxing your nose without touching it. Muknam replied immediately.

"Hello, I'm Muknam. Thank you for contacting me. I really want to continue… "Okay. This is good enough."

Ding!

[New mail…]….]

[Subject: RE) Hello, I'm Muknam ….]

As soon as I sent the mail, I got a reply right away. I was surprised that I got a reply just after 1 am, and when I checked the mail, an electronic contract came.

"…" Is it okay to proceed so quickly?"

Muknam, who couldn't hide his shyness, confirmed the contract.

There was nothing unusual about it. The only thing that bothers me is that I have to use my real name in the "Contractor" at the end.

The company was hiding the fact that he was running a personal YouTube channel. So I wanted to avoid using my real name as much as possible.

But it's a waste not to. It's a perfect opportunity for virtue signaling.

Muknam Can wrote his name on his "real name" and sent the contract.

Muknam Can's real name was Kang Heeyeon, he was a staff member of Jinseok's first work "Dreams of the Sun Rising" and an audition staff member for "In Spring Without Flowers".

Like every station at the end of the year, the BDD stations had a busy day.

"Hey! Did you make sure the actors came in? Never overlap like last time!"

"Send me the subtitles you made to send overseas. Let me check."

"Senior! What should I do if Hong's Family wants me to take it out in front of the table?"

"If the ratings are 3%, tell them to pay for it themselves!"

"Can I really say that?"

"Hey, Mr.—. Is this going to work?"

The year-end awards show was a "celebration" of the year's funniest and brightest stars, but for the network, it was nothing short of war.

And there were some of the busiest of them all, the staff in charge of judging the ceremony.

Na Jinho, who became the head of drama at BDD this year with the unprecedented success of "Spring Without Flowers," said.

"Hmm! You're going to give the Best Supporting

Award to another actor?"

He hid his emotions even though he was coughing in vain, but there was a glimmer of joy in Na Jinho's voice.

I had no choice. What is being discussed as the winner is the actor who appeared in his work.

"Yes, Commissioner. Originally, I wanted to give it to Lee Seokmin who appeared in ‘Return Doctor Kim Cheolsoo', but now the public opinion is… I can't believe it."

Changing the winner is obviously an inconvenience. However, from Na Jinho's point of view, it was welcome.

"In a few days, ‘Dreams of the Sun Rising' and ‘In Spring Without Flowers' suddenly began to climb the charts. It's not a big deal on YouTube, Instagram, or anything right now."

Another staff member added.

"Everyone supports Kang Jinseok no matter who they are. I thought it might have moved from the agency's perspective… It's too much to think that way. There are also a lot of videos made by overseas fans."

"Well… I see."

At the employees' words, Na Jinho spoke as calmly as possible. First of all, as the ‘director' of the BDD drama channel, he tried to remain neutral.

The staff member showed his cell phone to the director and continued.

"The website has articles like ‘Kang Jinseok, will you win two awards? Maybe it's because the number of views is good, but other reporters copy it and publish it.

As you can see from the staff's speech, the staff thought it was right to give the "Best Supporting Actor Award" to Jinseok.

But no one said it prematurely. This is because other actors might feel uncomfortable giving two awards to a newcomer. However, it's not without precedent.

In fact, there were some senior actors who did not like the newcomers receiving many awards.

They didn't say anything, but they were all silent about the "facts" they were secretly sharing.

Na Jinho knew this as well, so he couldn't come up with a refreshing solution.

Meanwhile, Na Jinho said as if he had made up his mind.

"Hey, it's a problem to give two awards at the same time. We've already reduced the price since this year."

The employees also nodded to each other.

"That's true."

"But I'm so sorry to give a Rookie or Best Supporting Actor Award to another actor, but it's ambiguous to give an Excellence Award or a Popularity Award."

"Yes."

"Then there's only one way."

The employees listened attentively to Na Jinho's tone as he seemed to be coming up with a solution. Na Jinho said with a smile to the employees who seemed a little nervous.

As if I couldn't help it.

"Except for all the other awards."

"…."

"I'll give him the acting award."
