Rebirth: King To Superstar Chapter 46

Leaving Jung-hwa who was in her own world after getting a boost of confidence from the deal offered to her, Do Hwan looked at Joon-won who, in contrast to that, had the same emotionless face. It would fill normal students with anticipation and hope that they would get a similar deal, but he didn't have any of that.
Hea-Jung looked a little dispirited when she saw him remain the same and complained, "Little brother, how could you remain the same even after hearing your friend got a deal like that. I thought this surprise would get some emotions out of the emotionless face of yours. Now I'm starting to think if I made a cyborg as my brother." sulking on the couch.
Joon-won looked at her and shook his head at how childish she acts. He was expecting something like this after seeing the people in the room and he also believed if not then Jung-hwa would get an opportunity worthy of her talents in some or other way. People who were hardworking and talented couldn't be contained in a university like this, especially after how she acted in the drama earlier.
Do Hwan, on the other hand, acted as he didn't hear her comment and said, "You know, at first I was very apprehensive about even coming to this exam today. I mean, as I said earlier, you guys are first year and on top of that in the regular batch. So how talented might one person be for Hea-Jung to call me in the middle of the day and pester me for the remaining of the day that she wanted me to attend this exam?"
"This was the first time I saw her pester anyone for someone else in her whole 21 years of life. So color me surprised. I originally planned to enjoy my rare day-off but due to this monster, I came. If there wasn't any good actor like she promised, I would have tied her in ropes and delivered her to her mother."

"WAIT, WHAT? How could you do this to me, Uncle? You were scheming so many cruel things in your mind." Hea-Jung shouted and interrupted him.
Of course, once again her rant was ignored as he continued, "But color me surprised. My dumb niece was really true this time. Such a talent you have. That small role with only two parts really show-cased what you have."
Joon-won looked at Do Hwan in the eye, before nodding and replying, "Thanks for the compliment."
"Well, after looking at how you act and carry yourself on stage, it almost feels like you are a veteran. Have you acted before?"
'Yes, my acting experience is more than your whole life.' but he couldn't say that, after all, he looked like a 20-year-old boy.
So, he shook his head and said, "No. This is the first time I acted on stage. I started acting only after coming to the university, prior to that I had no experience or knowledge." making it clear.
"Woah, Little brother. You didn't act before you joined the university? That means the acting skills you show are your learning in one year. Wow, now I can tell everybody I have a super talented brother." Hea-Jung gasped after hearing that while showing a proud expression as if she was his mother. He felt his neck might break at how many times he shook his head at her actions.
"Yes, it really is surprising to see such a talent these days. Now I am more sure that you will have a bright future. Now, what do you think about the offer I gave to your friend earlier? Of course, there are some changes in terms. I want you to practice in drama houses this entire summer and I will recommend you to the more famous ones in the city. By the end of this month, you will get a chance to join my agency."

This was a very enticing offer. The man was only asking him to get more experience and then he could directly enter an agency. No first-year university student would get such a good offer if they did not have a nice background. So for people like them who don't have a background, it was like striking gold.
But Joon-won had other plans. He didn't want to join a drama house. He has abundant experience in drama. What he wanted now was a chance to act in a movie as soon as possible. This showed the confidence he had in his decades of experience and skills.
He shook his head and said, "Although your offer is enticing, especially for a person with no background like me. What I want now is a chance to act in a movie. So, I plan to give auditions this coming summer and try my luck. Drama houses are great but it's not a stop I need right now."
His response shocked everyone in the room. He actually rejected a good offer and just as Hea-Jung was about to convince him, Do Hwan cut in and said, "Boy, you have too much confidence in yourself. The entertainment industry is a jungle and if you can't back up that confidence you showed, you will drown and never get back up."
"But, I like your confidence. Your skills are good but that small role you just showed isn't enough to land you a role in a movie. How about this, I am producing a new film this summer. The casting is almost over but there is still one role left and we are still thinking about it. Do you want to try?"

The Beaumort Society
The city of Omen is on the cutting-edge of learning and science, and the things going on behind the backs of the Institute and the government, and sometimes with their approval...well, they don’t really matter. Conspirators operate just below the surface, societies clashing, fighting for their own mysterious ends. It's here that the individual known as Nemesis Jones, a self-styled private investigator, arrives, stumbling onto the doorstep of a curious bookstore called Beaumort's. He's here in search of answers, but all he seems to find is more questions - like the strange girl who arrived at Beaumort's shortly after him, and the peculiar stranger who just may have the answers he seeks. After he stumbles upon a conspiracy tied far too closely for comfort to his best friend, it's up to him and some other nosy eccentrics to unravel the mysteries of the city one by one, beginning with the murder at the Theatre Obscura. Unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately, all of this is explicitly outlined in Nemesis' job description. [ILLUSTRATIONS BY @THEEGGGARDEN ON TWITTER] [UPDATES 13TH AND 27TH OF EVERY MONTH]
