Episode 128 Spring Day (3)
The Savior had special abilities.
Something that cannot be proven, something close to… …supernatural power.
The ability to discern people who shine.
He never really bragged about his abilities to anyone, but he did tell a few people close to him.
“I mean, when I see people who seem like they could do it, I feel the light. I don’t just feel it, I see it. Really.”
Then, people close to me would give quite similar answers.
“Don’t go around saying things like that, Director. Even if I tell you, you won’t believe me.”
I didn’t feel particularly frustrated.
This ability was actually of great help to the Savior himself in his work.
The entertainment industry, to put it bluntly, is a people business.
So how powerful would it be to have an eye for people?
Of course, having that kind of power didn’t mean that he could succeed in everything.
“Sir. Did you check that… … article…?”
“What? Are you nervous?”
“Minwoo’s photo… was taken… … .”
“Minwoo? The Minwoo I know? What picture?”
“… … You should see it for yourself… … . The other person is Oh Hae-mi, a former model who has recently become known through supporting roles… … .”
A bitter smile appeared on Gu Se-ryeong’s lips as she listened to the company employee’s words.
This is how people do business.
A person who emitted a strong light before becoming successful, but after becoming successful, the intensity of the light actually decreases.
It’s surprisingly intuitive.
In the end, the important thing was that the Savior’s ability to see light proved that it could not judge a person’s humanity.
Besides this, there were factors everywhere that hindered success.
He scouted and selected the right people and put them in the right projects, but in a situation where everything was in place, it was impossible for the director to have an affair with an actress twenty years younger than him.
Because it’s a variable that no one can predict.
It is giving strength to actors who are relatively less affected by issues, and the film industry is also shrinking due to the outbreak of COVID-19.
However, it is an undeniable fact that it was his ability that allowed him to stand far above others.
During that time, I met that boy.
He seems like a man even though he’s a boy.
A raw child who is too young to be called a man.
“Ouch, it’s so bright… … Should I wear sunglasses… … ?”
“What are you saying, lady?”
From the first time we met, I had a feeling that there was something wrong with his personality, but I couldn’t let him go.
Because I saw a light so intense that it couldn’t even be compared to any light I’d ever seen before.
“Sign with me. If you sign with me, I’ll make you a star. I’m Cheong-ah… … .”
“Ahhhhhh, I can’t hear you! I told you that vendors are not allowed in, so how on earth does this lady get in here?”
A boy with a personality problem who runs away screaming and covering his ears.
Move.
I even liked his prickly personality.
A direct descendant of Cheong-A, a prominent conglomerate, and the head of a media group.
People are very gentle towards such a savior.
But the Savior knew full well that that did not speak to their humanity.
Because it wasn’t the first time that I’d seen people I believed were so gentle and kind end up causing all sorts of outrageous accidents.
Gu Seol-ryeong was even more attracted to the fact that Lee Dong-ha’s inside and out were consistent.
“I won’t hit him in the back of the head.”
Hong Seon-ah laughed in vain at Gu Se-ryeong’s words.
“They were hitting from the front?”
“That’s right. Isn’t that better? It’s just a business that hits you in the back of the head.”
At the end of those days, I got it.
“You damn devil. I can’t allow you to say things like, ‘You’re old,’ or ‘You’re trying to live a life of luxury and fame in a rock band at your age.’”
“I… … didn’t say that. You’re doing it.”
“I can do it.”
When I got my hands on it, I knew he was truly crazy, but Gu Seol-ryeong was convinced.
‘We recruited Mirae to take charge of the singer part, which was Cheong-A Entertainment’s weakness. Even now, look at it. Isn’t it amazing? Even though the members are like this, their light has actually become brighter?’
So I believed and moved on as I wanted.
“The blue porcelain reaction is amazing?”
“Sir, if things continue this way, will win without a hitch and will smoothly lead to the first album.”
“It’s rock, but it’s so popular… … It’s amazing.”
“Huh… … .”
Time passes again.
“Hong Young-pil’s identity has been revealed!”
Some more time passes.
“You exposed your face on stage?”
“We keep getting interview requests. What should we do?”
“Why is Chairman Yoon Tae-joo there? Was it a one-time surprise show? The phone calls are going crazy to confirm if he is a real member. Should I make an official statement?”
As Gu Seol-ryeong checked the reactions of the company employees who were making a fuss every day, her doubts grew even more.
“What could it be… Dong-ha?”
The whole world, or at least everyone in South Korea, is looking at Idoenha and Blue Porcelain.
I know that it might just be a short-lived popularity.
Because rock has become such a minor genre.
But how can such a minor genre have such an explosive response?
A response that goes beyond mere skill.
The power to draw aggro is in the moving one.
The question is not simply whether a child is moving.
“It has been confirmed that Dong-ha’s mother is working as a pay doctor in the United States. This is something we already knew, but we heard that she is divorced and has completely lost contact with her husband, Dong-ha’s father.”
“No contact with Dong-ha either?”
“Yes, we have confirmed that… … .”
“It’s strange… … What if he’s my son? Even though it’s my motherland, how can I be free from worry if I drop him off in a foreign country?”
As Gu Seol-ryeong narrowed his eyes, Hong Seon-ah nodded slightly as if in agreement.
It’s definitely not a normal relationship.
It’s also true that Lee Dong-ha’s mother doesn’t contact him first.
Dong-ha also doesn’t contact his mother.
“And that day… … you know, 30 years ago… … the accident that the managing director asked me to look into. No matter how hard I looked, I couldn’t find a proper record. But one popped up. December 7, 1994. There was an accident, and it is recorded that a man riding in the car died.”
“dying?”
“Yes. At first, there was a record of a missing person being reported. The body was not found and fell under the bridge… So, it was tentatively determined that he fell somewhere in the Han River and the case was closed.”
“Who is the driver? Who is dead? Are there any other passengers?”
“The driver has no record, and one passenger died.”
No driver’s identity record?
That in itself is proof.
In the 1990s, even if records were not computerized, there would have been some kind of record keeping, but what if there is no driver’s record even though other records remain?
‘Dad and brother must have worked hard… … .’
“That’s it… … My thoughts… … .”
I don’t remember the exact date because I was young, but it’s probably close.
Hong Seon-ah’s report continued behind the head of the Gu Se-ryeong who was lost in thought.
“But… … the name of the deceased is Lee Dong-ha.”
“… …Move?”
“Yes. It may just be a coincidence, but it is strange. It’s enough to make me think there’s something there, just like the director kept saying.”
Close your eyes, and beyond the memories of the Savior, you begin to see that brother and Dong-ha overlapping.
I couldn’t even remember the face because of the strong light.
Suddenly, I remembered the name, and in my head, instead of Light, I saw Lee Dong-ha smiling as if he was that older brother.
It was only about ten days, but it was intense.
Because those were the first happy days in my life.
Maybe it was because of that older brother that she had the ability to see the light.
‘You protected me and died… … .’
Regardless of whether or not that brother moved, it is certain that he saved her life.
‘No… … It disappeared. And then it came back. To this era.’
It’s a crazy conclusion.
But if you put it that way, the rest fits.
Crucial testimony… has emerged.
From a man who was planted as his own person but has now become the loyal follower of Lee Dong-ha and Yoon Tae-joo.
“I don’t know anything.”
On the day of the debut of the first album, team leader Park Soo-chan, who had been called in to give encouragement, rolled his eyes.
Guseolyeong was convinced by Park Soo-chan’s words.
‘You know something, don’t you?’
Some people are good at hiding their lies, while others can’t even hide them.
Park Soo-chan was the latter.
So, with the mindset of, “Let me hear some crazy talk,” I immediately thrust the knife in.
“Dong-ha. Did you time slip?”
“… … !”
Park Soo-chan, who was wandering around the office to avoid eye contact, has his eyes widened even further and looks at Gu Se-ryeong.
“… … That’s ridiculous… … .”
“Ah… … Yes, yes. That’s ridiculous… … What are you talking about all of a sudden… … I’m flustered… … What the heck, haha… … ha… … .”
It doesn’t make sense, but Park Soo-chan’s reaction definitely means that it’s true.
“Go. Let’s keep this a secret for now.”
“Haha… … Yes. Of course… … Haha, it’s a secret. Time slip… … . Hahaha… … That’s ridiculous… … Hahahaha… … .”
Goo Se-ryeong, who was staring at Park Soo-chan as he left the office, forcing out a forced smile, spent two full hours thinking while listening to Lee Dong-ha’s first live radio broadcast.
And I decided.
“Seon-ah. Let’s go.”
“yes.”
“Do you know where it is?”
“You’re going to see Dong-ha, right? That’s the only thing the managing director is interested in these days.”
“… … It’s not what you think.”
“What does it matter to me?”
“Go quickly. I have a lot to ask you.”
“yes.”
Hong Seon-ah drives with ghost-like skills and barely manages to get to the broadcasting station hallway.
“You. Look at me for a second… … .”
“I saw you a little while ago, right? And why did you come here?”
When I look at that rough face, the words I had prepared turn white.
After some hesitation, I began to blurt out what I had prepared.
“Live Aid… … Ethiopia… … Wembley… … Didn’t you tell that to some kid?”
It has to be right.
Even if that’s true, I don’t know what to say next, or what the Savior himself wants or why he’s asking such questions.
If that’s true, shouldn’t he at least say thank you for saving him?
“There was that time, right? There was, right? 32 years ago? A car accident… … when you saved me.”
Looking at Lee Dong-ha’s wide eyes, Gu Se-ryeong became convinced that the unrealistic things he had imagined in his head had actually happened.
Manager or artist.
Thinking that I really can’t lie.
* * *
“… … What, what is it?”
I had to clear my throat once, checking my voice that was trembling without me knowing.
Why are you so nervous?
It’s simple.
Because for the first time, my identity was revealed to someone I didn’t want to know.
Until now, I have only revealed my identity to those I wanted to.
There were some people who regretted revealing that they had time-slipped.
Like Choi Dong-hae.
Like the damn East Sea.
That person who is now called the godfather of rock, even though he is a middle school kid… … .
Anyway, in the end, I revealed it, right?
But what is this?
It’s too late to say no now.
It’s stranger to say no.
What happens if the witch finds out my identity?
Am I… … being caught by the screw?
or not…….
“Are you going to sell me to the circus? No… … . Hey, stop joking. Are you going to sell me to some secret organization like the FBI or District 9? Or a slave contract? From now on? Be a slave to the Savior for the rest of your life, doing nothing but music? A contract worth 100 to 100? You get 100? I get 100?”
I poured out the worries that were welling up inside me without me knowing.
Then, the face of the old man who was looking at me with excitement becomes distorted.
“… … Until now… … Have you ever looked at me like that… … ?”
Of course, then?
