The Heavenly Demon Gives a Massage - The Heavenly Demon Gives a Massage chapter 207

After a few days of overseas location shooting, that evening.

“Everyone, you did a great job on the hot island this time!”

“The director worked hard too!”

“Haha, then let’s toast together!”

After retrieving the installed equipment and completing preparations for withdrawal. The staff and cast members were sitting huddled at each table and enjoying their last supper.

After filming, the staff and cast members who worked hard together had the feeling of an end party.

The pressure and nervousness about the work that I have been suffering from so far disappears and I feel comfortable, so it is like a kind of annual event that takes place on its own after the filming is finished, even if no one has decided.

“Kiyaa, is this the boat party you’ve been hearing about?”

“It’s also tasteful to drink alcohol floating on the sea.”

“So that is it. Ha ha ha ha ha!”

And the place where they are sitting together is none other than the deck of the cruise ship. People’s laughter echoed loudly in the open scenery of the night sea that could be seen just by lifting one’s head.

“You really seem to be enjoying all these luxuries.”

“I thought I wouldn’t even be able to have a party, actually.”

“me too.”

This is a virtually uninhabited island where people do not stay.

The only proper facility is the pier where the ship is anchored, and there are no shops or even private houses nearby. So, of course, there are no bars.

Of course, even in this situation, you can bring beer and snacks separately to celebrate the finish, but in the case of this shoot, the budget and schedule were both tight, so I couldn’t afford it.

I would say that it was a situation that was literally poor.

So I thought of leaving this place as soon as possible and going back to my home country even if I had an end party… … .

“Assistant Director, can I bring you some more meat?”

“Uh, good. I’ll ask you for some reassurance.

Now, everyone was enjoying a party on the deck of a luxury cruise ship, enjoying dinner together.

A buffet stocked with different kinds of sake and empty bowls that are continuously refilled. Here, even if you turn your head slightly, you can see the night view of the Indian Ocean.

This could be said to be the most spectacular end party I’ve ever been through. The coach looked at the faces of the team members having a good time, and slowly got up from his seat with a hearty smile.

“Sea, can I pour you a drink?”

The place he headed was none other than the actors’ table.

Among them, he approached Yoo Se-ah, the lead actor, and said a word in a cautious voice.

“Uh, Director? Sure.”

Yoo Se-ah smiled and held out an empty glass, and the director poured a glass into it. Then, in a low voice, he opened his mouth.

“This shoot is so… I owe a lot to Se-ah. Originally, under this scorching heat, everyone would have suffered a lot together.”

“It was nothing. What did I do?”

Yoo Se-ah replied in a shy voice, holding the glass in her hand. I didn’t say it out of modesty or politeness, it was just what he said.

Cruise is said to have been sent by Tarvin Marchesi, president of the Elephant Group, but she had never even talked to him, let alone see his face.

To be honest, Yoo Se-ah still felt a bit dumbfounded. At least, I only understand the context of the stories I heard through Kang Tae-han.

If anyone has credit for this and deserves to be thanked, it’s probably Kang Tae-han, not him.

“Right, sister. Because I was really surprised. How extensive are your connections, even leading to Indian conglomerates?”

“a. Because it’s not my connections. By the way, you worked really hard on this piece. Even if things got twisted, it wasn’t uncommon.”

When another actor who was sitting at the same table offered a helping hand, Yoo Se-ah shook her head once and naturally changed the direction of the conversation. As if there had been a lot of things piled up, the director immediately let out a deep sigh mixed with a sigh.

“It was, it was. Brokers don’t even get in touch from the middle, they say no here, but money leaks out even during the delay… … .”

Maybe it was because she was drunk, but Yoo Se-ah’s change of topic was quite effective. The director continued to complain in that state.

“The nobles who gave me money keep pressuring me. Ahh, if it was delayed just a little bit longer, it would have been better to just make a new movie.”

“But why did the problem suddenly get resolved?”

“Don’t you know? I heard that director Archin contacted him directly. Since then, things that have been blocked have been resolved so smoothly that it’s awkward.”

At the person’s name that came out of the director’s mouth, the actor who asked the question asked back with a look of surprise.

“If it’s Director Arhin, is that Arhin Director?”

“Maybe it is? I don’t know how many Arheen there are in the world, but there is only one famous director.”

“No, it is, but… … .”

Speaking of director Arheen, he is a master of the Indian film industry with world-wide recognition. Isn’t he too big a figure to be mentioned in this situation?

In terms of a company, it feels as if an executive at the executive level of the company came directly to us when we asked for an A/S consultation.

“Are you familiar with Director Arhin?”

“no? I didn’t even get a call.”

“That is very strange… … .”

A male actor tilting his head with a puzzled expression.

At that story, Yoo Se-ah smiled with a proud feeling inside. Because this was also a story related to Kang Tae-han.

* * *

“By the way, Se-ah, why are you eating only grass? Do you get drunk with that? Bring some meat and eat it.”

While time passed like that, the director who had been talking for a while looked at Yoo Se-ah and said jokingly. To be precise, that was what he said while looking at the buffet plate in front of Yoo Se-ah.

“ah… haha. Maybe it’s because I’ve been eating so many good things lately, but I’m a little bit unappetite right now.”

It was not a word at all.

In fact, since Cruise came to the set, most of the staff have enjoyed a rich dinner at every meal.

High-end dishes that taste good one by one are served as a buffet, but in that situation, it was too harsh to finish the meal with just enough food.

And the same goes for Yusea.

She, too, has enjoyed a full meal, and after filming all the scenes in which she appeared, she was spending time practically like a vacation.

Since it was like that, it was only natural that the appetite would gradually fall.

But that wasn’t the only reason she was eating only salad. And the reason was the part I didn’t want to talk about.

‘I’ve gained more weight than I thought… I can’t say that.’

These past few days, I was spending the same time as on vacation while waiting for my filming on the cruise.

One day, she suddenly came up with an idea and stood in front of the scale. She recalled how she felt at that moment. It felt like a defendant standing on the court to be judged.

I was afraid inside, but it was a reality that I couldn’t turn away from.

And finally, the number on the scale.

‘To think he’d lost weight like this in just a few days… … .’

If it was a lot, it was a lot, and if it was a little, it was a number that could be written down.

If you are sensitive to your weight, it can be burdensome, but if you are not, you can just shrug your shoulders and go over the weight.

But what I can say for sure is that it was at a level that could have a sufficient impact on the actress’ work activities.

Of course, there hasn’t been any change in appearance yet… … .

In other words, it is safe to say that we have come close to that boundary. It’s a boundary line that lets you know that you’ve gained some weight without having to step on the scale.

Appearance and body shape are one of the most important specifications for an actor.

It is definitely a part that affects acting and immersion, and it is an indispensable part of the profession of an actor.

Therefore, when an actor fails to control his weight, it can lead to a story that he lacks a sense of work and responsibility, not just being indifferent to his appearance or lacking in self-management.

‘And then again… … .’

There was one more thing that bothered me.

It’s not easy with the work consciousness as an actor, no, maybe it’s the part that cares more than that.

That’s none other than her boyfriend, Kang Tae-han.

No matter what, it was the heart of a person to only show a good side to the person they like. Furthermore, isn’t Kang Tae-han a person who is secretly thorough in self-management?

At first glance, it looks a little skinny, but she was well aware of the finely woven muscles and strong elasticity inside it. And the fact that I exercise steadily every evening to maintain and pamper them.

If he finds out that he has gained so much weight because he has been resting comfortably for the past few days… … .

Maybe Taehan will say it’s okay.

But I felt ashamed of myself and couldn’t stand it.

‘Unconditionally subtract!’

The final conclusion thus drawn.

The day I promised to go back to Korea and meet Kang Tae-han.

There wasn’t much time left until that day, but until then, it was her determination to restore it unconditionally.

“How about a dessert?”

In the meantime.

Before I knew it, a serving cart wagon approached the table and stopped. there… Colorful desserts were listed by type.

Cake, financier, macaron, tiramisu, mont blanc… … .

There are so many options that you can choose according to the mood of the day, and all of them boast excellent quality, so you can guess that they were made by a first-class patissier.

Ahh. This is it.

This is the source of her anguish.

Just as all the luxurious menus were served at every meal, this dessert was also served at every meal.

Whenever I felt a little empty after a meal, this dessert cart appeared without fail and roamed between the tables as if luring prey.

And she… I just wanted to try each of these desserts, no more, no less, just one. It’s just the feeling of tasting it.

Isn’t that enough?

Only thing she didn’t know was that more than half of the desserts were replaced with new ones every day.

‘Huh… … .’

And it is the same today.

Furthermore, are they trying to reap the mummy of the late species? Sadly, today’s new desserts were especially cute and delicious looking.

“Oh, this financier looks really delicious.”

“Maybe it’s because I’m getting older, I’m craving something sweet these days… Please give me one plate of these macarons.”

Whether they know her feelings or not, the people around her all commented on the dessert and started to pick it up one by one.

“They all look really delicious. Take a look, sister!”

“… That’s right.”

I know.

And I know that it tastes good too.

Yoo Se-ah swallowed the words that reached her throat, and stabbed the lettuce in the salad with a fork. It was whole raw lettuce without dressing.

* * *

Meanwhile, the office of Cheonma Massage.

“Hmm… Can we do this here?”

“No, a little lower.”

“If you say a little lower… here?”

“Five! How cool!”

In this small space compared to the break room, three adult men were gathering to create a noisy atmosphere.

“Hey… Even if you press the same acupuncture points, there is a clear difference between pressing after seeing the blood flow and just pressing.”

“That’s right! It’s not that I didn’t mean it earlier.”

“If you do this far, you will be able to use it in practice. And if we go a little deeper… … .”

The three are Kim Seong-hoon, Hwang Tae-jin, and Choi Seong-hyun.

It was none other than the masseuses in charge of the course, the artisans of Cheonma Massage, and the three of them had recently awakened to a sense of humor.

And now, the three of them are practicing massage using the senses on each other.

However, since Seonghyun Choi’s achievement was a few steps ahead of the other two, it was more like a picture that Seonghyun Choi was naturally informing the two of them and reviewing.

“… Well?”

by then

Someone opened the door and came inside, saw the three of them huddled together and stopped. It was none other than Kang Tae-han.

“what’s the matter? What’s going on?”

“No, I don’t have any important business… I just came to see what you were doing. Do whatever you do.”

At Choi Seong-hyun’s words, Kang Tae-han shook his head lightly and said. Of course, I have business, but I just needed a space to talk to Chief Hwang separately.

“What is it, Taehan? Are you waiting for me at the office?”

“The office is full. Just have a cup of coffee or something.”

When he ran into Chief Hwang, who was following him, Kang Tae-han pointed towards the hallway and said, meaning to leave. I wonder if I left the store like that and walked with Chief Hwang. While waiting for the elevator, Kang Tae-han insinuated.

“This is how I feel these days… The store is a bit small.”

“is it? I definitely felt that way in the past, but it seems to be fine since the shopping mall was merged next door.”

Chief Hwang tilts his head with an ambiguous expression.

At those words, Kang Tae-han shook his head and said.

“I’m not talking about a store, I’m talking about a space for employees. It’s okay to use it only for relaxation, but I also use it for lectures and practice.”

“Ahh… It kind of feels like that.”

Only then did Chief Hwang nod his head in agreement.

At first, Kang Tae-han only took time out from time to time to teach, but now it is a lecture time that has taken place as part of the store’s official schedule.

To this end, there were plenty of beds in the break room, and thanks to this, there were no problems during practice during lectures or during regular practice.

However, now, the number of masseuses is much higher than before, the story is a little different. It was inevitable that the space would be cramped.

“Maybe it would be better in many ways to have a separate space. We will need more masseuses in the future.”

“Hmm… It is, though.”

Chief Hwang opened his mouth and touched his chin. I agree with that statement. But that doesn’t mean you can’t do everything on your own.

“I don’t think there’s any more space left to take out.”

Space is limited, and the means to expand it further are limited. But wouldn’t it be possible to take another store on the same floor by force?

“no. It wasn’t about creating space in the store, but about expanding a new space.”

But at those words, Kang Tae-han shook his head and said.

Director Hwang asked with a puzzled expression for a moment.

“A new space… What if?”

“I do not know… To put it bluntly, we want to establish something like an academy. That way, it will be easier to secure talent in the long run.”

It was Kang Tae-han who spoke in a calm voice about the things that should have been done quite loudly.
