- Reasons why Lee Yoo-ju is actually a fake protagonist.jpg
- The one who stabbed at the end wasn't Lee Min-seo, but Lee Min-hyuk in disguise, right??
└ You crazy bastard, at least make your theories make sense
After Episode 12 of
There were probably multiple reasons for this.
The build-up that started from Episode 10.
The attention gathered through
The fact that people who binge-watched it all at once stopped right at Episode 12.
Naturally, all sorts of prediction posts were flooding various communities as well as SNS.
- Then did Min-seo kill Min-hyuk too?
- NNNNN I don't think that's the case
- I totally thought Min-hyuk was the one who took the weapon, but he wasn't???
- But did Min-seo have a reason to stab Yoo-ju??? I don't get it;;
Such reactions.
Some said the plot was suddenly spiraling into a mess, but it definitely garnered attention.
The fact that it was absolutely impossible to predict how the story would flow from here on out played a huge role.
And, much like those intense reactions.
"Wow."
The filming set staff gaped as they saw the reactions to the drama that aired yesterday.
They were about to start filming Episode 15, but they couldn't concentrate on filming at all.
It was only natural.
"18 percent?"
"Is this for real?"
It was an unbelievable level.
It had been maintaining a steady upward trend and had gathered considerable anticipation, so they expected a significant response.
The viewership rating they had desperately climbed up to was 14 percent.
But this week, it was a whopping 18 percent.
A massive increase of 4 percent.
The most important thing was.
"……We won, right?"
Although only by 1 percent, they had clearly surpassed
"Writer Min Se-hee has collapsed!"
"Didn't she ascend to heaven? Her expression looks peaceful."
Writer Min Se-hee, who would quietly appear on filming days, had collapsed in a corner with an enlightened face.
It seemed she didn't expect such a huge reaction.
Even though she must have received the news in advance, seeing that reaction gave a rough idea of how she must have felt when she first heard the story.
"This is crazy."
"Wow, seriously? My phone kept ringing yesterday. They kept asking what happens next in the story."
The young actors who came to the filming set all had flushed faces.
In recent years, dramas that exceeded 18 percent viewership ratings could literally be counted on one hand.
Just participating in this drama meant they could definitely raise their recognition as actors.
Naturally, they had to work hard to show an even slightly better performance.
This
Just like the portfolio of Yoo-ju oppa that Gil Soo-jin so desperately longed for in the drama.
"Seriously, Seo-yeon. This is no joke. How does every project you film turn out like this?"
Director Kim Il-soo also approached Seo-yeon with a beaming face and spoke to her.
Since even the supporting actors and extras were reacting like that, he thought the protagonist, Seo-yeon, must be incredibly elated right now.
Especially considering how Seo-yeon usually was.
She'd probably be shrugging her shoulders and sparkling her eyes, asking to be praised for no reason.
With that in mind, he spoke to her.
"……Yes?"
Seo-yeon felt strangely subdued.
So much so that Director Kim Il-soo flinched for a moment.
"Is, is something wrong? Did something bad happen?"
"Ah, no. Just a little."
Saying so, Seo-yeon hastily lowered her head.
She just had a few things on her mind.
Of course, she felt incredibly good that the drama was a hit.
However.
- My older brother is a filming staff for Sky Garden, and he said Joo Seo-yeon seriously rolled and fell while filming this ㄷㄷㄷ
- Gasp!! Did she hurt her valley?
└ ??
- Yeah, she's supposedly fine
- Phew
- Fact: Gorillas originally live in the mountains
- No, why do they keep attaching the gorilla meme to our Seo-yeon
Since the previous Magical Girl Harara shorts, the memes that had relatively decreased in mentions were slowly raising their heads again.
Since a massive influx of people was joining Seo-yeon's fan cafe through
They truly were existences that couldn't be let down one's guard against.
Of course, posts saying Lee Yoo-ju's acting was really good were the majority of the reactions.
'But the ones who are supposedly fans.'
Excluding the fan cafe, the animals mainly mentioned in the communities were mostly of the dog kind.
Saying her running around here and there on variety shows was like a puppy.
But in the fan cafe, a VS debate would come up every time, making her gradually confused as to whether this was a fan cafe or an anti-fan cafe.
'No, it's not that I dislike being strong.'
Separate from that, how should she put this.
Should she call it pride?
There was a slight sense of crisis rising because it felt like there was absolutely no awareness of her as a female actress.
There were many posts saying she was pretty, but they'd say she was just a pretty gorilla or something.
There were a lot of those kinds of feelings, so this hurt her pride a bit...
'Hmph, if I show them properly, their thoughts will change soon enough, won't they?'
Seo-yeon narrowed her eyes and spammed the like button on the post she had just been reading.
How many sub-accounts had she created for times like this?
'Anyway.'
Seo-yeon let out a sigh.
The countless paths of image improvement she had walked so far.
It seemed she would eventually have to choose the one with the best response.

"Isn't filming busy? Are you sure it's okay? We could postpone it a little?"
Jo Seo-hee, sitting in the passenger seat, said that.
Of course, contrary to her words, her face was beaming.
Originally, Jo Seo-hee liked amusement parks, and this was her first time going with a friend.
Moreover, an actress of the same age.
Since it was Seo-yeon, with whom she shared a common understanding, Seo-hee's mood today was at least five times better than usual.
Besides, it wasn't just Seo-yeon today.
"Seo-hee unni, can I really ride the rides as much as I want?"
"Ofcourseofcourseofcourse."
"Wow!!"
Because Seo-yeon's younger sister, Soo-yeon, had also come along today.
'Genes are truly scary.'
Seo-hee thought.
Seo-yeon was insanely pretty, but Soo-yeon was surprisingly cute to an astonishing degree.
Seo-hee had to suppress the urge to hug Soo-yeon right that moment.
"But is it really okay to go out so suddenly like this?"
Seo-yeon asked Seo-hee.
Putting aside the suddenness of the outing, there had been no promotion at all.
"It's perfect to run it like a surprise event."
"Really?"
"Once we go out, everyone will film videos and upload them to the internet anyway. That kind of thing has a bigger effect than purely corporate promotion."
At Seo-hee's words, Seo-yeon nodded.
What was the view count for her Harara video again? She hadn't checked since it surpassed 5 million, so it might have actually reached 10 million.
Slowly, not just Koreans, but even comments from foreigners were becoming visible.
She was simply afraid of how far the magical girl shorts had spread.
'Thanks to that, I definitely gained benefits image-wise.'
Seo-yeon loved praise, but the rare reason she didn't click on the Harara shorts was because the comments were flooded with people saying she was cute.
She would just shrug at words saying she was strong, but with the word "cute" pouring down like a waterfall, her heart would tickle so much that she absolutely couldn't bear to look at it.
"Alright, we're here."
Seo-yeon, who had been thinking that, realized that expensive cars were definitely nice.
Should she save up money later and buy a car for her dad too?
Thinking that, she raised her head.
And.
"……."
"What's wrong?"
"No, I was expecting something around the level of Daejeon Zoo's O-World."
"Where is that? It's a zoo, but it has rides too?"
"Did you just insult Daejeon's landmark?"
At Seo-yeon's words as she glared sideways, Seo-hee was flustered.
Wait, wasn't this girl from Seoul?
Why was she suddenly projecting herself into the Daejeon Zoo?
In the first place, today was the first time Seo-hee even knew such a place existed.
Daejeon is, what was it, a bakery city, isn't it?
"Ah, anyway, how is it?"
"……Honestly, I'm surprised."
Seo-yeon looked around the amusement park site with a face of genuine admiration.
Honestly, when it came to amusement parks, aside from O-World, Seo-yeon only knew about the two most famous ones.
In the first place, that was the extent of what Seo-yeon had visited.
Anyway, even compared to those, the amusement park in front of her eyes wasn't lagging behind at all.
Even the machines were all new models, giving off a sparkling feel.
Naturally, Seo-yeon's younger sister Soo-yeon, who was standing next to her, was expressing joy with her whole body by raising both arms.
"Unni, daebak, daebak!"
"……I've been thinking about this for a while, but who did you learn that 'daebak' from?"
"Dad uses it a lot?"
So her weirdly middle-aged speech pattern was indeed copied from her dad.
Seo-yeon sent a sharp glare at Young-bin, who was at home.
She wished he wouldn't pass on weird speech patterns to her younger sister for no reason.
"First of all, we can ride the rides after the event ends……. Shall we go first?"
She had watched videos in advance, so she already knew what kind of acting she would be doing.
Of course, the acting Seo-yeon was doing wasn't anything special.
Still, she needed to match chemistry with the other actors, which was why she came so early in the morning.
"Unni, are you becoming a magical girl today too?"
"……Something like that, probably?"
Personally, she wanted to be Zero-ro, which Soo-yeon liked.
That side also suited Seo-yeon's image better.
'Actually, if we're talking about playing a villain, I think Jo Seo-hee fits better.'
Seo-yeon glanced at Seo-hee beside her.
She also had a rather sharp impression, but she thought she looked gentler than Seo-hee.
Even so, I look kinder than that girl.
'Seo-yeon will definitely play Zero-ro, right?'
Seo-hee also roughly guessed Seo-yeon's thoughts.
Since her younger sister Soo-yeon liked Zero-ro, as an older sister, she would want to play Zero-ro.
Zero-ro, while not as much as Harara, was also a popular character.
Plus, as a very clumsy young lady type villain in the work, it was good for planting a good image in the public.
'And Seo-yeon has a face that suits a villain better than I do.'
Seo-hee herself knew that she gave off the vibe of a "villainous young lady of the upper class."
But compared to Seo-yeon, who left a strong impression as a villain, wouldn't her own face be on the gentler side?
She was thinking that.
And Seo-hee personally liked Harara.
She's cute, after all.
Of course, she just couldn't bring herself to say she liked Harara.
She had simply pestered her dad and quietly slipped this event into the amusement park.
From the company's standpoint, putting on a children's play with the recently popular Harara wasn't a bad idea either.
While she was thinking that, her younger sister Soo-yeon looked at Seo-hee with sparkling eyes.
"Is Seo-hee unni participating in the play too?"
"Huh? Yeah, but?"
"Really? I want to see Seo-hee unni's acting!"
"Really?"
Seo-hee could feel her mouth softening at Soo-yeon's reaction.
A younger sister is so cute.
But this was a disappointing part as it was a problem that even her father couldn't grant if she asked.
In the first place, she was the youngest child herself.
"Yeah, yeah, Soo-yeon likes Seo-hee unni's acting."
At those words, Seo-hee, who was about to smile back again, felt a chill run down her spine and raised her gaze upward.
Then, she saw Seo-yeon, who was standing quietly behind Soo-yeon, staring straight at her.
'No, why?'
Did I do something wrong?
As Seo-hee shivered with that thought.
"Hmph."
Seo-yeon puffed her cheeks sulkily.
'I haven't even heard those words from Soo-yeon that many times.'
Most of the time, what she heard was, "Unni only plays villains all the time!! You're mean!!!"
That was the majority of it.
No, it wasn't like she played villains because she specifically wanted to.
Lee Yoo-ju was clearly not a villain, but the protagonist.
It was unfair.
'Today, I'll make you see your unni in a new light.'
Seo-yeon boosted her motivation.
She would make her say "Unni's acting is amazing!" instead of Jo Seo-hee.

Mirinae Park.

It is an amusement park of the NewLike Group, completed the year before last.
Its scale couldn't be called the largest in Korea!, but the site was quite expansive.
Above all, it was an amusement park that brought in the latest designs for all its rides.
They put in a large number of celebrities for massive promotion.
And they succeeded in greatly raising their declining awareness over the past 2 years.
Especially the cultural industries hosted by NewLike affiliates.
Since there were many theme parks related to movies and dramas, there was a steady demand.
Among them, as it was also the largest investor in 'Loop Entertainment', which recently gained huge popularity with Magical Girl Harara.
They regularly held children's plays at the amusement park.
Of course, despite having ambitiously prepared it, they hadn't yet seen the expected effects so far.
So there were rumors that they would bring in celebrities this time for promotion.
'I did hear that, but.'
Park Dong-hwan, an actor in this Magical Girl Harara play, swallowed dry saliva as he looked at the two actresses in front of him.
Joo Seo-yeon and Jo Seo-hee.
Among the recent young actresses, was there anyone who didn't know these two?
They were actresses with that much name recognition.
In Joo Seo-yeon's case, it had only been a year now, but she was a child actress who left a strong impression in
And she was the most actively working female actress this past year.
One movie, two dramas.
On top of that, she was showing her face on various variety shows, so she was becoming a very familiar actress to the public.
Why would people like them be in a children's play?
"That rumor must be true."
"That rumor?"
"There's a rumor that actress Jo Seo-hee is the young lady of a NewLike affiliate."
Young lady, that was quite a rare word to hear.
In short, it meant the daughter of a noble house.
'Why is the daughter of such a noble house working as a celebrity?'
He was curious.
Come to think of it, the wife of the NewLike chairman was said to be a famous actress.
If she hadn't passed away early, she would have been much more famous.
Since she was an actress who was called a genius, he remembered it being largely reported at one time.
While he was thinking that, it seemed they had finished talking elsewhere, as Seo-yeon and Seo-hee were seen coming this way.
"Ah, which of you two is Harara and Zero-ro?"
He knew that the actors coming today would be playing Zero-ro and Harara respectively.
So when Park Dong-hwan asked that.
"……I am Harara."
Seo-yeon said, glaring sharply at Seo-hee with haughty eyes.
Of course, at Seo-yeon's gaze, Seo-hee felt wronged.
She had clearly intended to play Harara.
But then.
"Unni has to play Harara!! The good magical girl!!"
"No, Unni can also play Zero-ro……."
"Unni is cool, so Harara is better."
She hadn't expected Soo-yeon to throw a tantrum right there.
Even though she herself liked Zero-ro!!
……Of course, since she said Unni was cool, she couldn't exactly say it was completely bad.
But still!
Seo-yeon poked Seo-hee's side repeatedly with her index finger.
It was a cute action, but the pain felt in her side was absolutely not cute.
Seo-hee flinched and clutched her side.
'No, it's really unfair.'
It was only natural that Seo-hee was on the verge of tears.
