The Novelist Who Leapt Through Time Episode 181

It is not common to see a man in his 30s trembling because he is intimidated by a female student wearing a school uniform.

At first glance, it is funny, awkward, strange, and in some sense even frowns.

However, a person’s impression is not determined solely by appearance.

There is more to people than appearance.

Atmosphere, voice, tone of voice, eyes, behavior, habits, etc… … .

It is an intangible appearance that is often expressed with words such as aura.

“I understand that Mr. Ma Ki-hoon here made a mistake at work, but is this correct?”

Kim Byeol had that.

EP 11-All kinds

The atmosphere in the management headquarters office was as cold as ice.

Surprisingly, that chill came from just one person.

A girl crossing her arms and pressing her eyebrows together,

This is Kim Byul.

“under… … .”

Kim Byul sometimes bites her lip when she is mistaken for an adult in her 20s, but the intangible energy that flows from her is by no means that of a minor.

Kim Byul has spent over 10 years in the entertainment industry. It was a very short period of glory, and 10 years were filled with long humiliation and patience.

While others were holding hands with friends and eating tteokbokki at a snack bar, Kim Byul, who spent her childhood in front of cameras, is a virtue that cannot be expected from Kim Byeol.

In that sense, the Cannes Best Actress Award is not important. That’s just a ‘result’.

The sense of intimidation Kim Byeol exuded came from the long ‘process’ she endured.

The process was truly rewarding and grueling at the same time.

Her intimidation was like this.

“Why do people say things like it’s nice to have a close younger sibling or whether the company is comfortable? And what did you say, that a kid who didn’t even go to the military can give good answers?”

“Well, that’s… … !”

The senior, who had been majestically pursuing Magi Hoon, quickly shrunk and made an excuse.

However, these were the words spoken by a person who was cornered and was racking his brain.

There was validity to it.

“Hey, Actor Kim. “I think there’s a misunderstanding, but what I just said wasn’t a personal attack. I was so emotional during the process of training new recruits that I said something that was wrong for a moment.”

-It came out. Of course, I made a mistake. I am sorry for showing a disappointing side to the actor working for the company. As an employee of the management headquarters, I will be careful with my words and actions to avoid showing myself like this in the future. Hey, Kihoon. When I thought about it, my senior made a mistake. That was a bit harsh. sorry… … .

Before the words were said, Kim Byeol cut off the conversation.

In fact, Kim Byeol is not the president of Baekhak Entertainment, and there is nothing that can be said to have witnessed any of the company’s irregularities.

Above all, there is no hierarchical relationship between the actor and the agency.

Idols are created by companies, but actors are customers who have signed a contract with the company.

Of course, the company’s waist angle varies depending on the actor’s weight class, but in principle, the actor is just a partner of the company.

And the partner is an outsider.

Therefore, even if Kim Byeol witnesses an employee giving a bad lip to a new employee from Goa, Kim Byeol cannot fire that employee.

But if you look at it that way, the same goes for the entertainment industry.

Senior and junior actors do not have a superior-subordinate relationship, and most of them even belong to different agencies.

In theory, they are equal.

But is that really the case?

The entertainment industry is by no means equal, and the standards for dividing status are complicated by career, fame, agency, and personal connections. Therefore, disputes, punishments, and superior-subordinate relationships are not carried out through legal procedures, but through complex and subtle human relationships.

And Kim Byeol was a person who mastered that spider-like grammar.

“Hey, I’m not the only one who heard what this person said just now, right?”

Kim Byeol pointed out an extra in the office who was shaking in an atmosphere that ‘looked like the Cannes Best Actress actor was witnessing the company’s irregularities and throwing a tantrum.’

I wasn’t really looking for an answer. This is also part of punishment.

“Is it a problem for a celebrity to bring their own manager to work with them? Is that also a parachute and hiring corruption? Then, Bae Seong-won and all his managers will be let go. Everyone is an outsider. “I don’t think there’s any reason to single out a writer and say that it would be nice to work as the manager of her close younger brother.”

“No, uh, that’s… … .”

Kim Byeol viciously set the conversation partner as a third party, not herself.

And since the third party was not a party, he cannot provide a proper defense.

While the other party was talking, Kim Byeol continued her speech under the pretense of conversation.

“And what… A kid who didn’t even go to the military? Everyone clearly knows that he came from an orphanage, but if he scolds me for not going to the military, how is that any different from calling me a bastard who doesn’t have a mother or father? Me, really… … .”

Kim Byeol didn’t say much to Ma Ki-hoon’s senior.

It just made what had just happened a little more explicit.

But that was the punishment.

It is an even more severe punishment in that it can be said, ‘Why is this punished when I just told the truth?’

Now, if someone (probably a superior) asks what the hell is going on, instead of making the excuse that it’s not a big deal, Kim Byeol’s reinterpreted conversation will be mentioned.

Although Kim Byeol was not a high-ranking executive at Baekhak Entertainment, he cleverly used his social status to severely punish Baekhak Entertainment employees.

And I fell in quickly at the right time.

“What, did you see it?! Everyone get out of the way!”

As soon as a voice was heard from outside, Kim Byeol prepared to run away.

“Anyway, I don’t want to talk any more here, and I have nothing to say. There’s a problem with the identity of the writer, so I’ll take the manager in charge with me. “This doesn’t mean it can’t work either, does it?”

The employees nodded, saying it was a natural thing to do. So until now, I haven’t noticed that no one has told Kim Byeol that something isn’t right.

As Kim Byeol continued to express his facial expressions until the end and left the office with the group that Ma Gi-hoon had joined, a superior finally arrived to put an end to this confusion.

“hey! “What the hell is going on?!”

Baekhak Entertainment Management Headquarters is divided into the Actor Department and the Singer Department. And due to the nature of Baekhak Group, which focuses more on the video industry than the music industry, the power of actors is greater.

Therefore, the head of the department was a person who worked in actor management, and naturally, Kim Byeol had seen this man’s face for 10 years.

“Hello, Director.”

“hey! Byul Kim! “Who are you to abuse our children?”

“What is Gapjil… “I came here to run an errand with the writer’s manager, and I heard him say something strange, so all I said was a few words.”

Kim Byeol did not lie during this time.

“That’s it. Okay? Then I’ll just leave. “I didn’t come alone, I came with my companions on urgent business, so I can’t stay any longer.”

“what? “You’re going?”

“I think you can hear more details from the staff here. Well then, goodbye. “Guys, let’s go.”

The cafeteria workers, who had tasted the harsh taste of harsh social life, followed Kim Byul like scared ducklings. (Despite this, Gu Yuna remained calm.)

“hey! What if I go on like this! Hey, man, Kim Byeol!”

“See you next time.”

Professional actress Kim Byul completely erased her cold appearance and turned 180 degrees, leaving behind a cute smile and jumping out the door.

And after grumbling, ‘Oh, that wasn’t like that when I was young-’, he quickly ran away from Baekhak Entertainment.

The entertainment industry is full of scheming tricks.

The weak cannot survive… … .

* * *

“It was wrong, it was wrong, it was wrong… … .”

Although there was a minor incident where Min Hyo-min’s trauma of being misled by a senior colleague and receiving harsh training occurred again in the early days of her debut, the group reached a nearby cafe without difficulty.

As expected from the cafe chosen by Kim Byeol, it was an appropriate location with a certain level of privacy guaranteed even though it was near an entertainment agency.

After sitting there for a while and praising and worshiping Kim Byeol, the club members talked about why they came to see Mag Ki-hoon.

“what? kidnap?!”

Moon Ji-seop nodded as if it was completely natural.

Embarrassed, Ma Ki-hoon turns around to see Kim Byeol-gu, Yuna-min, Hyo-min, Min-hyo and all shaking their heads.

It was a bit creepy to see guys wearing the same school uniform doing that.

It seemed like everyone’s brains were a bit messed up. What kind of drug did Baekhak Arts High School put in their school lunch? … .

However, the characteristic of a real man is to answer ‘let’s do it right away’ in situations like this.

Moon Ji-seop waited for the handsome answer from the manly Ma Ki-hoon.

However, after leaving the Saebit Sloth Bom Orphanage and eating the sweet water of society for several years, Ma Gi-hoon became a dull man who had lost his ‘Saebit Sloth Bom’ character.

Above all, he has a wife (no children) to feed.

Ma Ki-hoon was no longer the fearless master of cigarette smuggling, the president of Saebit Heaven Orphanage, or a shaman who walked the extreme path.

Ki-hoon Ma has now become the head of a family with a lot to lose…

“Hey, no, no, you’ll be in big trouble.”

I could feel Ma Ki-hoon’s earnestness when he said it twice because it was important.

“I also tried to persuade Inseop for several months. Wouldn’t you have done it? But his mentality isn’t normal right now. It’s easy. How outrageous is it that a publisher would not even broadcast a child who won a Hugo Award? … .”

“why? “Isn’t it okay to just not go on air?”

Ma Ki-hoon did not answer Yu-na Koo’s question about ‘just’ rejecting the national attention pouring in on a female student who won one of the world’s most famous literary awards.

He didn’t have a mental breakdown, his family didn’t stop him, there was no negative public opinion, and even though everyone around him begged him to take advantage of the fame, he was the type of guy who ignored it all.

Ma Ki-hoon, who watched Gu Yu-na’s actions, keenly felt what ‘true madness’ was.

Ma Ki-hoon ignored the whispers of the abyss and continued talking as if nothing had happened.

“Anyway, kidnapping is not allowed. “Don’t mess with a sensitive child and cause an accident, just leave him alone until he gets his strength back.”

However, Ma Ki-hoon could not continue speaking until the end.

This is because Moon Ji-seop was looking directly at Ma Ki-hoon with a very earnest expression.

At those determined eyes, Ma Ki-hoon felt embarrassed and remained silent, and Moon Ji-seop touched Ma Ki-hoon’s heart with just one word.

It is not my place to scold.

“ham… … .”

Unlike Ma Ki-hoon, Moon Ji-seop, an active Saebit Elephant Orphanage student, was filled with the Saebit Elephant Spirit.

Therefore, what Moon Ji-seop was looking for was not salty processed meat food, but the reliable eldest brother of Saebit Neelbom Orphanage, hidden deep in Ma Ki-hoon’s heart.

“Is that really true?”

“… … sorry.”

“Where has the Kihoon I know gone? “Where has Gihoon gone, who used to slap disobedient idiots and lead them to the right path, the true path?”

Ma Ki-hoon’s physical therapy remained a legend at Saebit Neulbom Orphanage. It is a miracle of life that no matter how bad the irritant is, if you touch the cheeks, the dead buds will be resurrected.

As children of Saebit Heaven Orphanage who study the words of Jesus defeating the power of death, we cannot help but respect them.

It doesn’t matter that the group of people that Ma Ki-hoon posted comments on were elementary school students. Because learning has no age.

Therefore, Moon Ji-seop, who is much younger than Ma Ki-hoon, also gave blunt advice to his respected older brother.

“I haven’t seen it in person, but I think I understand just by hearing the story. Inseop must be having a hard time these days. “At times like this, shouldn’t the children at our orphanage step in and help?”

“… … .”

“We must help and live! “Are you my brother?”

Yes. The children at Saebitneulbom Orphanage are part of a family that inherited the family name and name from Director Moon Chung-jae.

For one reason or another, not all of them have the same name, but Director Choongjae Moon raised them as one family. This is the true Christian spirit. Even those who are not related by blood can become one under faith.

Ki-hoon Ma belatedly remembered that lesson.

“Lord… … .”

Instead of saying ‘Oh my God’ or ‘Egu Gu’, Christian believers use a more noble expression of seeking ‘Lord’.

However, language, even if it is a ritual expression, has power in itself. Slogans like DEUS VULT do not arise for nothing.

Thanks to that divine blessing, Magi Hoon closed his eyes as a weak new manager, but when he opened his eyes, he had become a fearless crusader knight.

“… … I get it. let’s go.”

“ham… !”

Magihun declared a crusade.

We raised our phones and gathered all members of the Christian world under the sacred banner.

-Yes, honey?

“… … Bangjeongah Sam. “This is Ki-hoon.”

* * *

Orphanage children have no parents. But people cannot have parents. This is not a childish nonsense joke.

Humans need someone to teach them everything. If you don’t have it, make it. That is nature.

Therefore, each orphanage child had one or two adults whom they regarded as special parents.

That adult could have been Director Moon Choong-jae, a priest or pastor who visited every other week, or someone outside the orphanage.

For the writer, that kind of adult was Bang Jeong-ah, a daycare teacher.

Although he may deny it, Munin considers Bang Jeong-ah like his mother.

There’s no way that classmates at the orphanage don’t know that. If you live together, you can see everything.

Therefore, Ma Ki-hoon’s strategy to promote Bang Jeong-ah was to target the weakest part of the literary man.

Ding-dong-

The older doorbell made a ‘ding’ sound when pressed and a ‘dong’ sound when released. However, in the old youth rental housing, even the buttons creaked, so there was a considerable time difference between ‘Ding’ and ‘Dong’.

But it doesn’t matter what the doorbell sounds like. It was not the doorbell or anything else that summoned the writer, but the voice of daycare teacher Bang Jeong-ah.

“Inseop, are you inside? This is teacher Bang Jeong-ah. Could you please answer if you have… … ?”

The effect was clear.

Immediately from inside, I heard a noise and felt like someone was running hurriedly.

In an instant, the door opened, and a writer with eyes full of astonishment appeared.

“Teacher Bang Jeong-ah… … ?”

I didn’t lie.

As soon as the writer opened the front door, he could see Teacher Bang Jeong-ah smiling half-gladly and half-ashamed.

However, Kim Byeol, Gu Yuna, Min Hyo-chan, Min Hyo-min, and Ma Ki-hoon filled the old, narrow hallway with peeling paint here and there… … .

and… … .

Ji-seop Moon asked.

“Hello, Inseop? “Do you remember me?”

“you… … .”

The writer frowned.

A vague memory led to an incomplete answer.

“… “Moon Taeng-seop?”

“… … .”

Director Moon Chung-jae passed down his surname and name to the orphanage children with the intention of raising them like his own children.

His surname is ‘Moon’ and his nickname is ‘Seop’. So, among the boys at the orphanage, there were many named Moon O-seop.

And since Hangryeolja was a tradition that originated from the paternal custom of inheriting the family, women did not inherit Hangryeolja.

In modern times, the situation has been reversed.

In a society of ruthless elementary school students where a strange name immediately leads to ostracism, the word ‘Seop’ was close to a curse.

Therefore, ‘Moon Daeng-seop’, which is translated as Moon O-seop, is a derogatory term.

Example sentences are as follows:

-what? All of the Moon Daeng-seop series from our orphanage were gathered here.

-Ah, Moon Hye-rin. go away.

-You bastards! Teacher said he’s cleaning the yard, so come out quickly!

At this time, the boys who heard the ‘ding-seop’ sound never stayed still.

Moon Ji-seop was also like that.

“Fuck. “I knew it would be like this.”

“… … ?”

“Hold it. Kidnap this bastard. Kihoon hyung!”

Ma Ki-hoon’s apology and hand were directed to the writer at the same time.

“sorry.”

“uh? Huh? What now… … .”

Likewise, Gu Yuna, who was in charge of the armed forces, also took action.

“A manger? What are you doing now… … .”

“What can’t be done?”

“what?”

Gu Yu-na, filled with resentment of ‘no’, cast a terrible killing blow.

After a while.

A clear sound echoed through the quiet youth rental housing apartment complex.
