Life, Once Again!

that you can’t.”

“I thought I hid that well, but I guess I was found out.”

Aram giggled.
Jiyoon was very flustered in the middle.
She eventually grabbed Aram’s arm and shook her.
Her small voice, saying ‘you should stop’, could be heard.

“We became closer, don’t you think?” Daemyung spoke as he watched that.
It wasn’t that surprising since they had spent over a month together.
Last year, the first thing that happened was disharmony, but this year, there weren’t any conflicts between the members.
As long as practice went well, they would be able to achieve good things in the competition as well.

“Then when is the movie going to be released?”

“We didn’t even start filming yet.
I don’t know the exact release date.
I’m not in a position where I can find out either.”

“Then for how long are you going to appear? Are you the main character? A delinquent who eventually has a change of heart and turns good?”

“Nope, I’m a minor role.
A passing by delinquent.
I only have two lines of speech as well.”

“Oh, that’s all you h…ufpppf!”

Jiyoon couldn’t take it anymore and covered Aram’s mouth.
She looked at Maru with an apologetic expression.

“I’m sorry, seonbae-nim.
She just doesn’t know how to hold back.”

“She’s not wrong though.”

“But even so….”

Maru scratched his eyebrows and turned around.
Jiyoon’s pitiful expression was more pressuring than Aram stating facts.
It would be quite a sight to see once Daemyung realized Jiyoon’s feelings or him.
He could already imagine the two of them sitting far away from each other, very awkwardly.

“Who else is in the movie? Is Yoon Hyuk in it? How about Choi Jihoon? How about Jang Min-oppa?”

Aram stated actors known for their handsome faces.

“All I know is that there will be a middle aged man with a fat stomach.”

“Isn’t there anyone with handsome faces?”

“I don’t know.
I really don’t know who is participating.”

“How about actresses?”

Daemyung sneakily asked.

‘Daemyung, don’t you see Jiyoon biting her lips behind you, you douche? ’ This guy is the type to run away with all of his might if he sees an apple falling above his head.’

“I don’t know anything about that either.
Do you think they’ll tell anything to a bottom-of-the-rung actor like me?”

At that moment, Suyeon crossed her arms and spoke.

“But I know.”

“You know who’s appearing, instructor?”

“Yeah.
I can tell you that there’s a really sexy, cute, and pretty actress.”

Suyeon paused for a breath before continuing,

“And that’s me.”

Maru felt his eyes twitch.
Suyeon was practicing her act of the second daughter when they met at the villa last time.
The audition ended last week.
Meaning that Suyeon passed the audition as well?

“Then you’re appearing in the same movie as seonbae?”

Aram made a curious expression.
Even Jiyoon became surprised and looked his way.

“I guess things turned out that way.”

“Are you filming together then?”

“No.
We won’t be meeting each other.
After all, we don’t shoot the same scene together.”

“What role are you then, instructor?”

“The granddaughter of the main character who’s in high school.
She is tragically killed by the main character.
There will be blood too.”

“A high school girl?”

“I guess it’s one of the advantages of having a younger looking face.
This unni’s skin is very good.
I’ll look like a high school girl once I wear a uniform.”

She grinned as she stretched her own cheeks out.
Aram exclaime and approached Suyeon and poked Suyeon’s cheeks.

“Instructor, tell me your secret later.”

“Sure.”

Aram locked her hands with Suyeon’s and shook it in joy.
Suyeon glanced at Maru.
She had a slight smile on her face.

“So we aren’t filming together, huh.”

“Yup.”

“That’s very fortunate.”

“Why is that? You’re making me disheartened.”

Aram, who was next to her, said “that’s right, seonbae.” It seemed that Suyeon’s art of seduction didn’t exclusively work on men.

“Oh, I know one other person.
It’s someone you know well, too, Maru.”

“Who is it?”

“Geunsoo-oppa.
He’s the youngest son.”

“I didn’t know that.
But when did you decide to drop the honorifics? I thought you called him with a ‘mister’.”

“That’s my business.
Don’t you worry about that.
Mister Han Maru.”

He had contacted him regarding the audition two weeks ago, and it seemed that Geunsoo had won the role as well.
The youngest son was the first to be killed by the main character.
There were some action scenes as well.
In the novel, he dies after struggling against his father, the main character, who appears and hits him with a hammer.

“I guess we’ll see once during the read-through.”

“There are read-throughs for movies too?”

“Just once.
The production team and the actors all gather around and do a complete read-through together.
They get to listen to what the director wants there.”

Suyeon let go of Aram’s hands and stood up.

“Well then.
That’s enough chat, so we should get to practice.
It’s not good to be so strict, but we shouldn’t play for too long.
Let’s read through the script once and move according to the movement lines we decided on last time.
No one’s forgotten their lines already, right?”

The acting club had done practically nothing but looking at the script for the past month.
Everyone here was confident in reciting the lines.

“Then let’s clean up and start immediately.
Oh, Daemyung, lead everyone and do some stretching.
We’ll up the difficulty for stretching today.
Especially you, Jiyoon.
Aram and Bangjoo are okay since they exercise, but you need to do some exercise.
Let’s raise your flexibility.”

“Y, yes.”

“Alright, then.”

Suyeon clapped and had everyone stand up.
She maintained the cheerful atmosphere and imbued vitality into the practice.
She was a difficult woman to face, but her abilities had to be acknowledged.
It was unbelievable that she had no experience teaching groups.
She displayed excellent teaching abilities against these group of students.

“Let’s get things done today too, then, shall we?”

Moon Joong took a deep breath.
After that, he picked up the script in his hand and violently shook it from top to bottom.
Something akin to thirst was rising inside him.
He wanted to pour out his thirst right now.

After taking deep breaths, Moonjoong picked up his phone.
There was a message from Junmin.

[There’s a get-together the day after tomorrow.
I’ll come pick you up.]

In Korea, a ‘love shot’ involves two people drinking their drinks (usually alcohol, but not the case here) over each other’s body.
There are ten levels of a ‘love shot’ in urban legend, and the actions described here seems like level 1, the most common one.
Anything above level 3 is both an urban legend AND NSFW (level 4 involves mouth to mouth… and there are 6 levels above that…)
