WONHEE, unfortunately, did not wake up as an Awakened Person.
But, fortunately, she woke up feeling better that morning. Her fever was gone even though she had forgotten to take dicine the night before because she fell asleep after taking a shower.
Maybe I didn't get sick and was just unwell because of my hangover?
"Wony-ah, I'm really glad that you decided to return to work."
Wonhee smiled at Miss Jang Miyeon.
Miss Miyeon is the CEO of Golden Era Entertainnt or simply GEE– Wonhee's current agency. It was one of the acting agencies that were established after the Outbreak.
Wonhee was currently at the CEO's office to talk about her coback.
"Welco back, my golden child."
Wonhee laughed softly at what the CEO said. "Am I still your golden child, Miss Miyeon? My hoobaes are doing well these days."
GEE was the only agency that didn't care whether a talent was an Awakened Person or not. Most agencies these days would only scout Awakened People because they were guaranteed to bring profit thanks to their popularity.
"You're still the most talented and the most popular golden child that I have nurtured, Wony-ah," Miss Miyeon said confidently. "Should we start announcing your coback through a photo shoot? We need to update your artist profile on the company website anyway."
Wonhee smiled and nodded. "That sounds good, Miss Miyeon."
The CEO fell silent, as if she was contemplating whether to say sothing or not.
"What is it, Unnie?" Wonhee asked, addressing the CEO in a friendly manner to make her feel more comfortable. "You can tell whatever it is that's bothering you."
Miss Miyeon was her boss, but they started as friends and not as a CEO-talent.
So, she would address the CEO casually whenever there were only the two of us in a room.
Just like now.
"We actually received a script for Writer Shin's new drama, and she has a role offer to you, Wony-ah."
Writer Shin is a famous screenwriter these days. None of her drama series has flopped yet.
"Really?" Wonhee asked. She didn't get excited because the CEO didn't look happy. "Is there sothing wrong with the script, Unnie?"
"The main character that was cast for that drama is Park Ruda."
She was surprised to hear that. "Ruda Oppa is making a debut as an actor? I haven't heard the news about it yet, though."
"They're trying to keep it a secret to surprise the public. Since there's a powerful Hunter backing up Writer Shin and her agency, everyone in the industry is hush-hush about Park Ruda's debut as an actor."
"Then the drama that Ruda Oppa will be starring in is guaranteed to be a big hit."
"Indeed."
"Then why do you look displeased, my dear CEO?" Wonhee asked, smiling. "If that drama is a guaranteed hit, then you should be thrilled that the writer herself reached out to us to cast in her new masterpiece."
"I've read the script, Wony-ah."
"And...?"
"It's like a glorified fanfic of Park Ruda and Lee Seodam's "love story!"" Miss Miyeon said, fuming. "And that damned writer wants you to take the role of the villainess, Wony-ah!"
Oh.
Wonhee could only smile bitterly while shaking her head. "I guess people really see as the villainess in Seodam Oppa and Ruda Oppa's "love story.""
***
IN FACT, most of the people on the Internet really saw Wonhee as a villainess.
