Chapter 208
From the extras to the staff, from the makeup artists to the special effects team, everyone clapped their hands with bright smiles.
The branch manager of Plus+ Korea and the CEO Lee Hansol, who had come to watch the last scene, also applauded enthusiastically.
They were both wearing black long padding jackets.
Not everyone is wearing them, though.
The branch manager looked around the set.
About a third of the people on the set were wearing black long padding jackets, while the rest were in different clothes.
It might have been uncomfortable to wear long padding jackets while moving around and working, but
Well, its because of the design. It has Korean letters on it. I might have hesitated a bit if it said Escape on it. Of course, I would have worn it anyway.
He couldnt deny that the design had a lot to do with it.
I just hope they dont throw them away.
They wont throw them away. Theyre warm. They might just remove or cover up the letters on the back.
Those letters are real, you know.
The branch manager and Lee Hansol chuckled wickedly like villains.
Then they caught eyes with Seo-jun, who was going to change his clothes.
Seo-jun greeted them with a bright smile when he saw their familiar faces, and they waved back with friendly smiles.
They kept waving until Seo-jun disappeared, then they got down to business.
We decided to restore the sets of the scenes that we filmed elsewhere here. There are quite a few empty rooms left. Well also keep the break rooms that the actors and staff used, and well set up a snack bar.
I see.
The branch manager nodded and suddenly remembered a scene.
What are you going to do with that?
Oh, that.
Lee Hansol knew exactly what he meant by that.
Were going to leave the lab door that Seo-jun acted in alone at the very end of the building. Well decorate the inside of the room like a lab after the zombie outbreak.
Lee Hansol grinned.
Were going to install a speaker in the corner and play the sound that we recorded for that scene. Dont you think itll be popular in the summer?
I guess so.
The branch manager smiled contentedly as he imagined the completed Escape Theme Park.

Happy New Year.
Happy New Year!
Seo-jun bowed in his hanbok, and Eun Soo, who had been staring at him with sparkling eyes, also bowed down on the floor.
The skirt of her hanbok fluttered.
Eun Soo turned her head sideways while her head was on the floor and looked at Seo-jun.
Brother. When are you getting up?
She turned her head completely towards Seo-jun and peeked at him.
The adults and Seo-jun who were lying down smiled at her.
It was frustrating to stay still at an age when she wanted to run around and play.
Eun Soo wanted to finish her bow quickly and play with her brother.
Seo Eun Chan, who took a picture of Eun Soo moving her tiny feet, gave a signal and Seo-jun got up.
Seeing that, Eun Soo also got up with a bright smile. Kim Soo Ryeon, Seo Eun Hye, and Lee Min Jun laughed.
The grandmother also smiled widely at the cute sight of her grandson and granddaughter.
Oh, my. Our puppy. She knows how to bow!
Right? Our Eun Soo. Shes amazing!
Wow! Eun Soo is awesome!
The grandmothers praise, Seo Eun Hyes praise, and Seo-juns applause made Eun Soos cheeks turn red.
Her lips twitched and her chest thumped.
Yup! Im good! I want to do it again!
She had been restless a moment ago, but she seemed to have forgotten it. She was excited and stood in front of the grandmother again.
Uh! Eun Soo. You cant do it twice!
Seo Eun Chan quickly stopped Eun Soo from lying down again. A loud laughter erupted.
Today was Lunar New Year.
The long holiday had begun.
This is Seo-juns New Years money. This is Eun Soos New Years money.
Thank you.
Thank you!
Eun Soo ran to Seo Eun Chan with her New Years money and bragged.
The adults and Seo-jun smiled as they watched the four-year-old run in her hanbok skirt.
Dad, I have this much money!
Oh, my. Our Eun Soo is rich!
Right? I want to eat chocolate!
Do you? Where is the chocolate?
He didnt know why chocolate came after New Years money, but Seo Eun Chan was swayed by his daughters cuteness and walked to the kitchen with her.
Seo Eun Hye opened her mouth without realizing it as she watched Eun Soo holding Seo Eun Chans hand.
Im glad Eun Soo doesnt look like Eun Chan.
Cough!
Lee Min Jun spat out the sweet rice drink he was drinking, and Seo-jun burst out laughing, as did Kim Soo Ryeon and the grandmother.
They didnt say it out loud, but they all thought so.
Seo-jun asked Eun Soo, who had eaten chocolate.
Eun Soo, what do you want to play?
Cheong Ryong-nim play!
At that, Seo-jun and the adults widened their eyes. They didnt expect that name to come up here.
Cheong Ryong-nim play?
Yeah! Its where you make a wish to Cheong Ryong-nim!
Yeah, lets do that. If its Cheong Ryong-nim play, no one can do it better than brother in the world!
The adults chuckled softly at the obvious statement.
Eun Soos eyes sparkled. She trusted her brother Seo-jun, who always played with her funnily.
Really?
Of course! Just wait a second.
Seo-jun, theres a Cheong Ryong-nim doll in Eun Soos bag.
Thinking that it might be useful for the play, Seo Eun Chan told him where the doll was. Seo-jun, who was thinking of an excuse to go to the room, smiled and answered.
Got it!
Seo-jun entered the room where Eun Soos bag was and quickly used [Spring Bears Hibernation] to get [Spring Blue Dragon Hatchlings Weak Peer] from the Library of Life. Then he took out the Cheong Ryong-nim doll from Eun Soos bag.
Its good to see you again.
The ability seemed to think so too, as the mark on his neck twinkled.
Seo-jun didnt forget to lower his intermediate ability to the lowest level. It was an act for his sister only.
[Spring Blue Dragon Hatchlings Weak Peer-Lowest Level is activated.]
Eun Soo, who was waiting for Seo-jun with her butt wiggling, looked at Seo-juns hand that came out of the room.
The Cheong Ryong-nim doll that had the mana of the blue dragon emitted an aura.
Although it was small because it was a doll, the soft beard and the shiny scales looked real.
Wow!
Eun Soos eyes shone at the sight of Cheong Ryong-nim in front of her.
Cheong Ryong-nim, Cheong Ryong-nim. Please grant my wish!
[Okay. What is your wish?]
Its really Cheong Ryong-nim!
She couldnt believe that it had the same voice too.
Eun Soo screamed with joy. It was different from her dads awkward imitation.
Eun Soo and Seo-jun, who were excited by the old Cheong Ryong act, played happily with Cheong Ryong-nim play.
Cheong Ryong-nim, Cheong Ryong-nim! Please make it rain!
[Oh no. I cant grant your wish without my Yeoui-ju.]
Yeoui-ju!
Eun Soo jumped up from her seat and clenched her tiny fists and shouted.
I have it in my bag!
[Oh? Do you?]
Yes!
Eun Soo ran to the room and brought Yeoui-ju.
Seo-jun granted Eun Soos wish after that (he sprayed some water lightly with a sprayer), and hid Yeoui-ju in the room.
Eun Soo and Seo-jun looked for Yeoui-ju together and granted another wish.
The adults shook their heads at the luxurious role-playing game.
Eun Soo has been hooked on Spring lately.
Where did she see it?
They showed it at kindergarten. They said its perfect for making kids quiet, so they almost showed it on the first day.
Kim Soo Ryeon said and everyone laughed.
She said Cheong Ryong-nim is her favorite in the world. She even went to the Milky Way Center.
Eun Soo doesnt know that Seo-jun is the real Cheong Ryong-nim.
Shell know when she grows up, but not now.
Seo-jun granted Eun Soos wishes whenever she asked.
The smiles never left their faces as they made small and fun wishes that a four-year-old would make.
The adults also smiled as they watched the laughing children.
Seo Eun Soo, 4 years old.
She met the real Cheong Ryong-nim without knowing it, and became a successful fan.
Theres no such thing as a luxurious role-playing game like that.
Suddenly, reality hit him.
The president of Cocoa Entertainment, which Seo-jun belonged to as a superstar, said and the adults burst out laughing.
***
March, when flowers bloom.
Seo-jun became a second-year student at Yeoul Arts Middle School.
The classes were rearranged and Seo-jun became class 1 with Han Ji Ho and Yang Ju Hee, while Kang Jae Han and Kim Ju Kyung became class 2.
They said it was more fierce than last year.
I heard that too. Our practical exam was two days long, but this time it was three days long.
Just by simple calculation, it doubled.
The students who gathered at Yeoul Hall for the entrance ceremony chattered. Not only the acting department, but also the art and music departments, especially the violin section, had a different level of attention than usual.
Seo-jun, look over there.
Huh?
Han Ji Ho, who was sitting next to Seo-jun, called him.
Seo-jun, who was listening to Ju Hees excited talk about the end-of-year performance, looked at the direction that Ji Ho pointed.
A boy was standing among the first-year students, waving his arms vigorously at Seo-jun.
The kids next to him also looked at Seo-jun with sparkling eyes.
Seo-jun smiled brightly at the familiar face.
Its Han Seok!
Thats the kid you co-starred with in one step, right?
Yeah. He didnt tell me which middle school he was going to, but it turned out to be our school!
Seo-jun waved back and Kim Han Seok smiled brightly and waved even more vigorously.
It seemed that he had already made some friends, as the first-year students crowded around Kim Han Seok and Yeoul Hall became noisy.
He really knows Seo-jun!
Its Seo-jun sunbae-nim, not Seo-jun!
I cant believe Im in the same school as Seo-jun sunbae-nim!
After calming down the excited first-year students and parents, the entrance ceremony of Yeoul Arts Middle School began.
After the entrance ceremony, the second-year class 1 students headed to their classroom.
They greeted their homeroom teacher and decided to choose a class president.
Then the class president is Yang Ju Hee.
Ill do my best! Who wants to do the end-of-year performance with me!
She seemed to have been waiting for this moment. Yang Ju Hee shouted.
The kids blinked their eyes for a moment before they understood what Ju Hee meant. Some of them raised their hands. The homeroom teacher laughed at the cheerful class president.
What about you, Seo-jun?
I have a filming schedule.
The kids and the teacher sparkled their eyes at Seo-juns words. Han Ji Ho, who was sitting next to Seo-jun, asked.
Are you filming Shadowman 3?
Yeah. I think itll start around fall.
Wow.
An exclamation came out of the kids mouths.
Youll meet Evan Block!
And Rachel Hill!
The homeroom teacher thought of the attendance days set by law and the special activity days allowed by Yeoul Arts Middle School in his head for a moment and said.
Let me know when you have your schedule. Ive prepared for it, but if the filming is longer than expected, Ill have to find a way.
Okay. I got it.
A new grade, a new class, new friends. When they got used to it, it was April.
