Superstar From Age 0

Chapter 191



Chapter 191

Evan Block and Rachel Hill arrived in Korea the day before yesterday and rested at their accommodation until yesterday. 

Seo-jun, who usually went to his home or Cocoa Entertainments practice room, came here and played with the two actors.

Theyre replaying Running Man.

I want to watch!

Seo-jun spread out the tteok-twi-sun (rice cakes, fried food, blood sausage) he bought on the table, and laughed at Evan and Rachel, who were conversing in Korean. 

The two actors had adapted to Korea in just two days. 

Seo-jun also sat down next to them.

Rachel Hill, who was eating the tteokbokki eagerly, asked.

Jun. Whats for dinner today?

Grandma said she made bulgogi for us.

Seo-juns grandmother had rolled up her sleeves and cooked for his friends who came from across the ocean. 

Rachel Hill slowly interpreted Seo-juns words and nodded as if she understood.

Grand-ma. I know! Shes Eunhaes mother, right?

Thats right.

Wow!

Rachel Hill, who had been learning Korean for a year, was pleased with her small achievement. 

Meanwhile, Evan Block, who had taken the Korean proficiency test in the US and was fluent in Korean, spoke casually. 

Of course, it was in fluent Korean.

Bulgogi sounds delicious. Ive tried it at a Korean restaurant in the US, but I wonder if homemade is different.

Grandmas secret sauce makes it delicious.

Im looking forward to that.

Secret? Whats the secret?

And then it was dinner time.

Mom and dad brought a whole pot of bulgogi that grandma made. 

It wasnt just bulgogi. 

They had brought enough food for the bodyguards as well, with the help of Seo Eunchan.

Everyone gathered around the table like a big family. 

Evan Block, who was eating grandmas delicious bulgogi, smiled and said. Rachel Hill also looked excited with a bright face.

Were meeting them tomorrow, right?

The inner circle team. I wanted to meet them!

Da Jin also comes.

Hunter! The hunter! I watched his works after that too.

Rachel Hill smiled broadly.

I brought gifts too!

Me too.

At Evan Block and Rachel Hills words, Seo-jun recalled the gifts that Rachel Hill gave him on the first day.

There were so many of them

You brought more?

They were small enough to fit in my suitcase.

What are they?

At Seo-juns question, Rachel Hill smiled brightly and said.

Its a secret!

***

The day of the promise.

Four Korean actors and two Hollywood actors faced each other at the entrance of the accommodation.

The slightly long standoff made Seo-jun look at the wrapped items on the floor and then look up at the four actors again.

There was no color on the faces of the four actors. 

Seo-jun smiled faintly. 

They seemed more surprised than he expected.

What should he say, what should he say first? 

Lee Ji Suk, who was only opening his mouth slightly, finally spat out a word.

Seo-jun

Yes?

You said they were friends?

At Lee Ji Suks question, Seo-jun smiled and answered.

They are friends. Very close ones.

I see.

Well, he didnt have a little intention of making them misunderstand by introducing them as friends. 

Hahaha. Their surprised faces were too funny.

Uncle Jong Ho looked like he was seeing something absurd, and Do Hoon hyung looked like he was out of his mind. 

Da Jin noona looked like she was about to cry, and Ji Suk hyung looked like he was slowly grasping the situation.

Rachel Hill, who was always cheerful and pleasant, broke the frozen atmosphere. She was happy to talk to Koreans other than Seo-jun.

Hello! Im Rachel Hill. Nice to meet you!

Eek!

A strange sound was heard from the sudden attack of Rachel Hills Korean.

The eyes of the four actors who were shaking violently went to Evan Block next to Rachel Hill and then back to Rachel Hill.

But I heard that Evan Block speaks Korean

Lee Da Jin muttered as she heard Rachel Hill say.

I learned it too. Am I good?

Very! Ah, hello. Im Lee Da Jin!

Lee Da Jin met a Hollywood actor for the first time in her life and bowed 90 degrees with her nerves on edge. 

At her greeting, Rachel Hill also smiled and bowed slightly.

Rachel Hill and Lee Da Jin exchanged very polite greetings while Evan Block reached out his hand to Kim Jong Ho.

Hello. Im Evan Block. Its really nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you. Im Kim Jong Ho.

Kim Jong Ho hesitated between my name and I am to introduce himself. 

He still had half of his mind in shock. 

It felt like he was watching a dubbed movie, seeing a foreigner speak natural Korean. It didnt feel real.

The four actors who regained their senses a little bit greeted Evan and Rachel. 

Lee Da Jin, who shook hands with Evan and Rachel, held up her right hand with her left hand and exclaimed with an emotional face.

Ill never wash this!

The four actors were beginning to recognize the situation when Seo-jun picked up the items that had fallen to the floor. 

One of them was a black plastic bag, but the plastic bag was small or there were many snacks, so the corners of the snack bags peeked out.

But what is this?

Oh, this is a gift

The four actors, who received the gifts that had fallen from Seo-juns hands, turned pale in an instant.

Snacks, stationery, diary, wristwatch.

The four actors looked up at the Hollywood actors who were shining brightly. 

The three Hollywood actors who tilted their heads at their expressions seemed to have lost their minds again.

If they knew this would happen, they would have bought something else!

Seo-jun

Lee Ji Suk called Seo-jun. It was a call mixed with resentment.

Yes?

You said they were friends?

Not only Lee Ji Suk, but Kim Jong Ho, Park Do Hoon, and Lee Da Jin also looked at Seo-jun with resentful eyes.

Huh? What?

Again from the beginning?

Seo-jun tilted his head at the four actors.

***

Hahaha.

There was no end to laughter from the actors who gathered at the restaurant for dinner. 

Rachel Hill was laughing almost to tears and Evan Block couldnt stop laughing either. Seo-jun also shrugged his shoulders and laughed.

You thought they were middle schoolers?

I thought they were your friends of the same age, since you said they were your friends. So I searched the internet to find them, but I never expected them to be these two.

Kim Jong Ho shook his head regretfully.

Seo-jun never brought any friends to the filming. He never asked for any autographs either. So we thought we would show him our cool acting skills this time and dressed up like this

Seo-jun laughed at Lee Ji Suks words. 

No wonder the four of them looked more dressed up than usual.

Hyung. My friends are more interested in idols than actors. Oh, of course, the kids at my school might be different, but most of them like idols more.

Oh, is that so?

Yejung? Art Middle School. Rachel Hill and Evan Block whispered quietly.

Yes. Im in the acting department. I also passed the Escape audition.

Oh.

At the unexpected news, the actors eyes focused on Seo-juns words.

Yum, he bit a piece of tteokgalbi and smiled. Since the Escape story came up, it was time to drop the second big bomb. 

Seo-jun gave a look, and Evan Block and Rachel Hill also smirked.

Lee Da Jin asked about Seo-juns friends.

Thats great! What roles do they play?

They appear as Go Ju Wons friends in the archery club and as patients.

I see. They must be acting as zombies.

Yes.

As she nodded, Lee Da Jin met Evan Block and Rachel Hills eyes.

Come to think of it, we know, but they dont know yet!

She realized that fact and quickly explained.

Escape is Seo-juns next work, its a zombie movie. No one knows yet because there hasnt been any news articles. Oh, this is a secret until the news comes out. Thats their marketing plan.

Evan Block smiled and said.

We know too.

Oh, Seo-jun must have told you.

At Kim Jong Hos words, ah, the three actors nodded as if they understood.

They smiled meaningfully at the sight of them. 

The four actors tilted their heads and Rachel Hill opened her mouth.

Were also appearing in it. Escape.

What?

Were really happy to be filming with you.

At Evan Blocks words, the four actors who were bewildered stopped moving as if they were struck by lightning. 

The chopsticks that were picking up food stopped in mid-air. 

A silence mixed with astonishment flowed through the restaurant that was noisy with laughter and conversation.

Uh, so you mean youre appearing in it? In Escape? A Korean movie?!

Lee Da Jin said, and not only Lee Da Jin who asked, but also the three actors opened their mouths wide.

Their eyes that were shaking violently again went to the Hollywood actors who were laughing wickedly.

Evan Block said.

Jun introduced us to it. We liked the script too, so we decided to appear in it. Well only have a short appearance, but please take good care of us during filming.

At that, the four actors turned their heads like zombies with broken brains and looked at Seo-jun who was laughing hehehehe. 

Seo-jun smiled brightly as he met their eyes of astonishment.

You must be very surprised, right?

The four actors thought of the same thing at his mischievous face.

Its not just surprising.

They swallowed their saliva as they imagined Korea going crazy after Escape was released.

After finishing their stormy dinner, Evan Block and Rachel Hill ate the snacks that Lee Ji Suk bought and enjoyed looking at the cute gifts for middle schoolers.

This is cute!

How does it write?

The two actors laughed ha ha ho ho as they looked at the gifts. 

Seo-jun also laughed along with them until someone poked his side with a finger.

Its all because of you, Seo-jun

Lee Da Jin and Park Do Hoon, who had unintentionally given gifts that would only be given to middle schoolers to their favorite Hollywood actors, couldnt even look at the two actors who were enjoying their cute gifts.

They just poked Seo-juns side with their fingers resentfully. 

Kim Jong Ho and Lee Ji Suk also supported them with the same feelings.

Hmm.

It didnt hurt, but being poked in the side felt like his conscience was pricking him. To be honest, he didnt even think they would buy gifts for his friends.

Seo-jun raised his hands as if surrendering.

Im sorry.

At that, they stopped poking him and Park Do Hoon whispered softly.

If you tell me what Evan Block and Rachel Hill like, Ill forgive you.

Me too!

Lee Da Jin also shouted softly, and Lee Ji Suk and Kim Jong Ho also shone their eyes. 

Seo-jun nodded with a smile at their expressions.

Evan Block and Rachel Hill, who had taken good care of the gifts they received from the actors (the four actors eyes shook greatly, but the two didnt notice), handed over the gifts they brought from the US to the four actors.

Evan Blocks gift was a luxury fountain pen, and Rachel Hills gift was,

Oh my god!

Swallen Anem?!

It was Swallen Anems autograph and a short letter. 

The four actors looked at Rachel Hill with emotion as they read the short letter that said he had watched Inner Circle and the childrens play Spring.

To be precise, my gift is his autograph. He said to give you this letter when he heard that I was going to meet you.

The four actors touched the letter paper with more emotion.

I have his autograph, but I want a handwritten letter too.

Seo-jun looked at the four letters with a longing eye.
