Chapter 103

    Chapter 103

    It was 9 p.m. on December 31st. The KBC Acting Awards opened with a dazzling ceremony. The other broadcasting stations had given up on competing with them at this time slot.

    They cant win. Lee Seo-jun is going to perform a congratulatory stage.

    Who can get Lee Seo-jun for their next project? How did KBC find out so quickly?

    I heard a rumor from someone who heard it from someone else

    From who?

    They said they kept an eye on the project that Lee Ji-seok, PD Choi Min-seong, and writer So Eun-jin were working on. And the moment they saw someone from Cocoa Entertainment there!

    The employee who was answering grabbed the air sharply.

    They snatched him up.

    Lets do the same.

    Maybe, he only appears in the works of the actors, PDs, and writers he knows since hes still young Who were the actors he worked with before?

    Kim Jong-ho, Lee Ji-seok, Park Do-hoon, Lee Ji-hye. And many more.

    First of all, lets keep a close eye on the actors from My Inner World Is KBC still running ads?

    -Wow. Look at those ads. Theyre on the level of My Inner World.

    -Lol. Lee Seo-jun is there. Hes also doing a congratulatory stage.

    -Is he congratulating himself for winning an award? Lol.

    -What will he do for the congratulatory stage? Usually, they do something similar to the drama.

    -King! Become a king! Wear the dragon robe!

    -Oh! That sounds good!

    The ads ended and the red carpet that was spread out in front of the KBC hall came into view. The live camera moved and the actors appeared one by one.

    The actors waved and greeted the crowd amid the loud cheers, took photos and did interviews at the photo zone.

    A large car entered the spot where many actors had passed by. The reporters were the first ones to recognize the flashy black car.

    Its Lee Seo-juns car!

    Lee Seo-jun is here!

    The flashes flickered. The car door opened and a tall man got out. Was he the manager? The flashes stopped for a moment.

    Lee Ji-seok!?

    Its Lee Ji-seok!

    It was Lee Ji-seok. Kim Jong-ho and Park Do-hoon followed him. Finally, Lee Seo-jun stepped down to the ground and everyone took a group photo.

    The flashes kept going off towards the actors from My Inner World, who had the most brilliant performance of the year.

    Lee Seo-jun, who had taken countless photos and done an interview at the photo zone, sat down on the chair with his name on it. Lee Ji-seok and Park Do-hoon were on his sides, and Kim Jong-ho was next to Park Do-hoon.

    Why am I not next to Seo-jun?

    Maybe the staff considered the age difference, Jong-ho hyung?

    Seo-jun and I are very close, you know?

    Do you want me to switch with you?

    Kim Jong-ho shook his head at Park Do-hoons words.

    I would have taken Ji-seoks seat, but not yours.

    Then lets do it like this. Whatever.

    Park Do-hoon switched seats with Seo-jun. Lee Ji-seok, Park Do-hoon, Seo-jun, and Kim Jong-ho sat in a row.

    Youre showing your true colors now, huh?

    Hahaha.

    They all laughed at Lee Ji-seoks words. Laughter also burst out in front of the four. Seo-jun leaned forward and the person in front also turned around.

    PD-nim! Writer-nim!

    PD Choi Min-seong and writer So Eun-jin, who hated showing their faces on television, were sitting in the front row. They seemed to have attended the awards ceremony as nominees for the writers award.

    Congratulations! Youre nominated for the writers award, right?

    Yes! Im so happy.

    Honestly, everyone who watched My Inner World must have cried!

    Its thanks to Seo-juns great acting! Seo-jun, congratulations on your nomination for the rookie award!

    Thank you!

    They complimented each other and enjoyed the joy of being nominated. Honestly, everyone from My Inner World who was nominated was smiling brightly.

    Congratulations.

    I hope to appear in your next project, writer-nim and PD-nim!

    The actors who were looking for their seats also congratulated PD Choi Min-seong and writer So Eun-jin. They all looked at My Inner World, the most talked-about drama of the year, with envy.

    Wow. Its Lee Seo-jun!

    Lee Seo-jun!

    Lee Seo-jun was a special existence even among the actors. He had appeared in a Hollywood movie that even adults would find hard to do at such a young age. And it was a series movie of The Marine. He wasnt the main character, but he played a role that was as memorable as the main character.

    They all looked at Seo-jun with curious eyes.

    An Da-ho, who had been away from his seat for a while, headed towards Seo-jun.Alll latest novels at novelhall.com

    Seo-jun. Lets go prepare for the congratulatory stage.

    Okay! Ill be back soon!

    Come back safely!

    Seo-jun waved his hand and left the My Inner World team.

    -Red carpet is over!

    -Todays My Inner World group appearance was hilarious lol.

    -I never thought they would all come at once lol.

    [Drama My Inner World, Lee Seo-jun for the role of Seong-nyeong Daegun!]

    Seo-juns face filled the screen. The people who were watching the live broadcast and the people who were in the audience all sent their congratulations.

    Seo-jun smiled brightly and got up from his seat. Lee Ji-seok made way for him and Seo-jun received the bouquet that he had hidden while preparing for the congratulatory performance. Kim Jong-ho and Park Do-hoon also gave him bouquets.

    Seo-jun, who had a bunch of bouquets in his arms, went up on the stage. The microphone was high, but soon a staff member handed him another microphone.

    The MC handed him the trophy and the bouquet. Seo-juns face with the beautiful flowers filled the screen behind the stage.

    The beautiful flowers and Seo-juns handsome face created a synergy and looked even more amazing.

    -This is a meme material! Actors are different!

    -Seong-nyeong Daegunmama. Congratulations!

    -? Is that a dragon pattern?

    -Dragon?

    Hello. Im actor Lee Seo-jun.

    Seo-juns voice was broadcasted to the people. Seo-jun smiled as brightly as he could and said.

    Im very happy to receive the rookie award, which I can only get once in my life. There are so many people I want to share this joy with. All the actors and production staff who filmed with me for months. The viewers who loved My Inner World until the last episode with tears. My family and Cocoa Entertainment staff. I want to thank everyone. I want to be an actor who can stay in peoples hearts with my acting. Thank you.

    Seo-jun bowed. Applause erupted. It was a short acceptance speech, but his sincerity was conveyed.

    [Actor Lee Seo-jun, KBC Rookie Award Winner!]

    -Rookie award? Shouldnt he get the best award?

    -The rookie award is good. If you dont get it for My Inner World, youll hardly get it. You already filmed Shadowman, so you cant get the rookie award for movies.

    -Seo-jun will get more awards in the future!

    The first part of the acting awards ended with Seo-juns award. Seo-jun got up from his seat.

    Then Ill go first!

    Okay. Go home and rest quickly.

    Im going to watch Ji-seok hyungs award at home!

    Everyone laughed and greeted Seo-juns words. Seo-jun and An Da-ho left the hall and met his mom and dad who were waiting outside.

    Seo-jun, congratulations on the rookie award!

    Hehehe.

    Lets go and wash up and watch Ji-seoks award.

    Okay!

    Seo-jun parted with An Da-ho and Seo Eun-chan and headed home with his mom and dad. There was not much traffic on the road, so they arrived home quickly.

    They turned on the TV and watched KBC, but it seemed like there was still a long time left before Ji-seok hyung received his award.

    Seo-jun and his parents quickly washed up and changed into pajamas. They sat on the sofa. Not long after, the MC announced the nominees for the acting award.

    Among the various videos, Lee Ji-seoks back lying in front of the grave was seen. The viewers who had watched My Inner World had tears in their eyes just from that video.

    -Wow. Acting with his back!

    -Who else can get it if not Lee Ji-seok!

    [Acting Award!]

    [Drama My Inner World, Lee Ji-seok for the role of Heo Yu-seon!]

    Lee Ji-seoks face was shown on the screen. Seo-jun was proud of Lee Ji-seoks face, which was brighter than ever. Although he couldnt hear it, Seo-jun clapped hard. Kim Jong-ho and Park Do-hoon gave Lee Ji-seok bouquets.

    Lee Ji-seok, who had a bunch of bouquets in his arms, went up on the stage. He received the trophy and opened his mouth to the camera.

    Hello. Im Lee Ji-seok. I have a lot to say, but I want to thank you first. The fans who always support me. The actors and production staff who filmed My Inner World with me

    Seo-jun listened to Lee Ji-seoks speech and sent him a message. He would be happy to see it later!

    Ji-seok hyung! Congratulations on the acting award!

    Lets keep acting together in the future!

    Lee Ji-seok finished his speech and bowed and came down from the stage. The screen that showed the MCs face changed. It was Bosingak where people were gathered.

    Is it already 12 oclock?

    Its past Seo-juns bedtime.

    Ill just watch the bell ringing and go to sleep!

    Okay. I got it.

    [This year is already ending. The old year is gone and the new year is coming. We hope that the viewers will have only happy and joyful things.]

    The MCs voice was heard.

    A large number appeared in the center of the screen. 10!

    [Then, lets start the countdown!]

    The people on the screen shouted the numbers and prayed.

    Shall we pray too?

    Please make us happy next year too.

    Please keep our family healthy.

    Seo-jun and his mom and dad prayed for a happy new year and counted the numbers together.

    3!

    2!

    1!

    Ding-!

    [Viewers, happy new year!]

    Ding-!

    Ding-!

    The bell rang 33 times.

    It was the new year.
