Chapter 285: Destiny (2)

Film set of In the Name of God.

(Photo) A skirt from L.M.L gifted to me directly by actress Miss Jung Yoo-Jin.

I was working as a part time actress and met an angel.

Coffee spilled all over me during filming, ruining my clothes.

However, Goddess Yoo-Jin gave me a blouse and skirt to change into.

And the best part? The skirt is from a luxury brand L.M.L, and it\'s not even released yet!

From now on, I\'m going to praise Miss Yoo-Jin every day.

Yoo-Jin unnie is really beautiful and her heart is even more beautiful. That\'s a fact. Anyway, that\'s all.

-King.KoKo: You can tell Jung Yoo-Jin has a kind heart just by looking at her face.

-MiDam0707: Wow, giving out unreleased clothes from L.M.L? I\'m so jealous.

-BBiBBiBong: Is this some kind of brand marketing? LOL

-JusticeBoom: Man, stop being so cynical.

-BiBigo99: Goddess YooJin also donates a lot to single mother facilities. She must not be into material things.

Even the least expensive item from the luxury L.M.L line was priced at no less than a million won. Yoo-Jin\'s decision to give away such a costly outfit quickly drew the attention of netizens.

I tilted my head. "Was that pink floral skirt sponsored by L.M.L?"

While the blouse was from a regular brand, LM Clothing, the skirt was from the luxury brand L.M.L.

Since it was an unbranded item, it seemed like Yoo-Jin didn\'t realize its value.

It was good that she was trending on live search ranking, yet I couldn\'t help but worry that she might have accidentally given away the wrong outfit.

When I called her, Yoo-Jin answered slightly out of breath.

-Huff, huff. Oppa, what\'s up?

"Are you working out?"

-No, I\'m playing with Miso in the yard.

In the background, I could hear Miso chanting, "Green light, red light."

"Just the two of you?"

-I\'m with Haru, Miso, Mrs. Lee, Ms. Yang, and Mr. Taekwon. We\'re playing while Mrs. Jung prepares dinner.

"Oh, really?"

Then, I remembered that I had something more important to ask her and added, "Yoo-Jin, you\'re trending at number one on live search ranking again."

I told her that Oh Sung-Yeon\'s Instargem post had caused a stir and asked if she had accidentally given away the luxury skirt.

However, Yoo-Jin\'s response caught me by surprise.

-Oh, so that was L.M.L? I did think the fabric felt really nice when I felt it. Anyway, why does it matter?

Yoo-Jin admitted she didn\'t know, but brushed it off saying it was just a free sponsorship anyway.

For a moment, I was left speechless.

\'What would the actresses I managed in my past life have done in this situation?\' I wondered.

Regardless of the situation, they would\'ve demanded that the luxury clothes be returned immediately.

Yet, Yoo-Jin wasn\'t stingy at all.

Thanks to her, I didn\'t have to go meet Oh Sung-Yeon to get the clothes back.

-I\'m trending just for that?

"Sung-Yeon exaggerated a bit about what you did for her."

Yoo-Jin laughed and said she\'d have to give her another outfit next time.

-Oppa, I\'ll see you later then~. Miso\'s calling me.

"Okay, take care."

-Uncle Yoon-Ho, come quickly!

After replying to Miso\'s urging, I hung up.

For some reason, I couldn\'t help but smile. Yoo-Jin\'s selfless and considerate nature warmed my heart.

"Thank you, Yoo-Jin," I whispered to myself.

I returned to reading the article after ending the call. Shortly, I received a call from Chief Lee Yung-Ah who managed the L.M.L brand.

-Mr. Jung! Thanks to Miss Yoo-Jin, it looks like the showcase will be completely booked!

L.M.L\'s brand showcase was scheduled to be held two days later on August 29th at the Samsung-dong Art Hall.

Lee Yung-Ah had set up a 500-seat stage and invited reporters, celebrities, and industry professionals.

Up until yesterday, only about 30% had confirmed their attendance. However, after Oh Sung-Yeon\'s post yesterday, she had been receiving responses from everyone saying they would attend. Moreover, there were now numerous requests for additional invitations.

-Ha ha ha. This is all thanks to Miss Yoo-Jin.

Following the success of Manshin Wol-Ah, Yoo-Jin\'s kind actions were also elevating the prestige of the L.M.L brand.

-How should I possibly repay her for this? I owe her so much.

Lee Yung-Ah expressed her deep gratitude, saying she had chosen the right advertising model.

"Well, this much is expected considering how much she\'s being paid in advertisement fees."

When I joked, Lee Yung-Ah laughed heartily.

-Ha ha. I\'ll make sure to reward her separately. See you the day after tomorrow.

"Yes, see you then."

After hanging up, I felt a surge of pride.

I was increasingly convinced that my decision to only work with celebrities of good character was the right one.

Now, it was my turn as a talent agent to step up.

I started calling the reporters and asked them to promote the recent events.

Soon enough, articles began to appear and Yoo-Jin\'s name once again filled the trending live search rankings.

***

At 8 p.m., Kang Gam-Chan personally drove to the MBS headquarters parking lot.

"Mr Kang, why did you come alone? Where\'s Ms. Kang?" I asked.

Kang Ji-Yung was still meeting with the victims of Writer Oh Sang-Jong from Empress Myeongseong 2021.

"As you suggested, she\'s there with Team Lead Kwak trying to persuade them. She\'ll contact us as soon as it\'s done. Let\'s hope for good news."

I bowed slightly. "Thank you for your hard work, sir."

"Hard work? The real work is being done by my subordinates. Anyway, let\'s go inside," said Kang Gam-Chan with a warm smile.

Kang Gam-Chan strode forward confidently. He had lost some weight and looked a bit frail, but his back seemed broad and strong today.

Technically speaking, Hoop Entertainment was not obligated to help those victims with its funds. Regardless, Kang Gam-Chan didn\'t hesitate to extend a hand to them. This made me realize once again how much respect he deserved.

I followed behind Kang Gam-Chan as we entered the MBS headquarters building.

On the way up in the elevator, I noticed posters for In the Name of God everywhere. Although Ju Yung-In was the lead, the posters were heavily focused on Yoo-Jin and Manshin Wol-Ah.

At a glance, it would be easy to mistake Yoo-Jin for the lead.

Kang Gam-Chan smiled contentedly as he looked at the posters. "The impact of your work is no joke."

I grinned and scratched my head. "Indeed."

Then, Kang Gam-Chan patted my shoulder and said, "You\'ve done an excellent job while I was away."

"Not at all, Mr. Kang."

In the meantime, we arrived in front of the MBS president\'s office.

Kang Gam-Chan turned to me. "Alright. Shall we go in then?"

Kang Gam-Chan knocked on the president\'s office door.

Knock knock.

The luxurious solid paulownia wood door made a deep sound, and a man\'s voice called out from inside.

-Come on in.

As we entered the MBS president\'s office, Choi Sang-Byung nodded in our direction.

He seemed in a foul mood given that his ambitious project, Empress Myeongseong 2021, was on the verge of being scrapped.

However, there was something else even more concerning.

To the right of Choi Sang-Byung sat Choi Tae-Hyun, who had previously embarrassed himself by visiting Lee Ji-Yeon\'s house.

"I called Director Choi because he was directly handling this matter," Choi Sang-Byung explained.

Choi Sang-Byung didn\'t seem too fond of Choi Tae-Hyun, likely due to the previous incident where the latter had proposed that Yoo-Jin showed more skin to boost viewership ratings.

Nonetheless, as Choi Tae-Hyun was the one in charge of this project, Choi Sang-Byung had no choice but to involve him.

After exchanging greetings, we took our seats while Choi Tae-Hyun glared at us.

"Director Choi, let\'s start with your findings," said Choi Sang-Byung.

Choi Tae-Hyun nodded. "Yes, sir."

Then, he began his report with a firm tone. "Those accusations are completely unfounded. I personally met with Mr. Oh Sang-Jong, and he swore on his reputation that none of it was true!"

Seething with anger, Choi Tae-Hyun fixed his gaze on me and continued, "Team Lead Jung! If you weren\'t happy with the drama\'s casting or synopsis, you should have just said so. Falsely accusing the writer is unacceptable!"

Choi Sang-Byung looked at me with a troubled expression and said, "The accused is denying everything so strongly. What\'s going on here? Did you really verify your claims?"

Before I could respond, Kang Gam-Chan stepped in calmly. "Are you implying that Team Lead Jung is lying?"

At Kang Gam-Chan\'s bold retort, Choi Sang-Byung cleared his throat. "Ahem. Well, that\'s not what I meant."

Kang Gam-Chan brimmed with confidence and continued to present our case. "And what\'s the point of asking a criminal if they committed the crime? Of course they\'ll deny it. He\'s probably trying to silence the victims by now. I think Director Choi might have made a mistake this time."

Although Kang Gam-Chan calmly pointed out the flaws in their approach, Choi Tae-Hyun wasn\'t ready to concede defeat.

"Mr. Kang! A criminal, you say? How dare you slander such a distinguished figure in Korean academia? I will not let this slide!" Choi Tae-Hyun yelled.

Nonetheless, Kang Gam-Chan didn\'t even blink once.

Just then, both Kang Gam-Chan and my phones buzzed simultaneously.

After checking his KkTalk message, Kang Gam-Chan grinned and looked at Choi Tae-Hyun. "It seems the definition of ‘distinguished\' has changed quite a bit lately."

Kang Gam-Chan then handed his phone to Choi Sang-Byung.

Adjusting his glasses, Choi Sang-Byung\'s face twisted in anger as he read the screen.

The same message had arrived on my phone—a set of documents formatted in a complaint form with blank spaces filled in.

Kang Ji-Yung had successfully convinced the victims to file charges.

Choi Sang-Byung\'s face contorted further as he shoved the phone toward Choi Tae-Hyun. "Director Choi, do you see this?"

"Uh-uh... this is..."

"Distinguished? Slander? Care to repeat that!?"

Choi Tae-Hyun\'s eyes darted nervously. "N-no, that\'s not what I meant..."

Choi Sang-Byung let out a deep sigh and pointed toward the door. "Get out!"

"M-Mr. Choi!"

Choi Tae-Hyun tried to insist there must be a mistake and promised to look into it again, but Choi Sang-Byung wasn\'t having any of it.

"You still say that even after seeing the victims\' complaint? Get out while I\'m being nice!"

"B-but Mr. Choi... Writer Oh would never stoop so low..."

Choi Sang-Byung couldn\'t hold back any longer and slammed his fist on the sofa armrest. "Hey! Did you get bribed by Writer Oh or something?"

"No, of course not."

"Then are you his lawyer? Why are you making excuses for him all the time? Are you two trying to sink MBS together?"

Choi Tae-Hyun had climbed the ranks by skillfully navigating office politics. But now, his rope had finally snapped.

"Hey! Are you leaving or do I have to drag you out?" Choi Sang-Byung shouted.

"I-I\'ll leave..." Choi Tae-Hyun stuttered and stood up from his seat with a pale face. As he walked out of the president\'s office, his legs were shaking.

At that moment, I had a strong feeling that I wouldn\'t be seeing him again. Seizing the opportunity, I checked my planner.

[Everyday V10.1]

[Date: February 12, 2021]

11:00 p.m. <Schedule Deleted>

(Deleted Schedule: <Empress Myeongseong 2021> meeting about writer Oh Sang-Jong\'s sexual scandal (Report: Collective lawsuit by students during his professorship. Legal Division\'s team lead in attendance).

Finally, not only were all the filming schedules for Empress Myeongseong 2021 canceled but all the events related to Oh Sang-Jong\'s scandal had also been completely wiped out.

***

Looking as though he had aged several years in a short time, Choi Sang-Byung slumped back on the sofa, utterly exhausted. After sighing deeply a few times, he turned to look at us and asked, "By the way, Mr. Kang. When do they plan to file the lawsuit?"

"They intended to do so after the drama aired. The victims were left with nothing but resentment..." replied Kang Gam-Chan.

Choi Sang-Byung sighed heavily. "Sigh. Had the article come out after the launch, we\'d have been done for. Given the situation, should we consider providing some compensation and covering the legal fees?"

His intention was to show that MBS was also a victim who had nothing to do with Oh Sang-Jong\'s misdeeds and that they stood with the victims by offering support. This was a smart move that could also help prevent further damage to the network\'s reputation.

Kang Gam-Chan nodded and accepted Choi Sang-Byung\'s suggestion. "Let\'s proceed with that. I\'ll make the necessary arrangements."

"We owe a great deal to Hoop Entertainment this time. Thank you so much, Mr. Kang."

Kang Gam-Chan shook his head. "I didn\'t do much. It was Team Lead Jung here who handled everything."

Kang Gam-Chan was giving me all the credit. In truth, I had only provided the information and it was Kang Ji-Yung who had tirelessly run around to resolve the issue.

At that moment, Choi Sang-Byung looked directly at me. "Team Lead Jung. Thanks to you, we avoided losing a massive sum of 30 billion won."

I smiled. "Not at all, sir."

Choi Sang-Byung shook his head. "No, I have my pride to consider and I can\'t just let this slide. I need to reward you somehow..."

Then, after a moment of contemplation, Choi Sang-Byung made an unexpected proposal.
