Superstar From Age 0

Chapter 103

It was 9 p.m. on December 31st. The KBC Acting Awards opened with a dazzling ceremony. The other broadcasting stations had given up on competing with them at this time slot.

They cant win. Lee Seo-jun is going to perform a congratulatory stage.

Who can get Lee Seo-jun for their next project? How did KBC find out so quickly?

I heard a rumor from someone who heard it from someone else

From who?

They said they kept an eye on the project that Lee Ji-seok, PD Choi Min-seong, and writer So Eun-jin were working on. And the moment they saw someone from Cocoa Entertainment there!

The employee who was answering grabbed the air sharply.

They snatched him up.

Lets do the same.

Maybe, he only appears in the works of the actors, PDs, and writers he knows since hes still young Who were the actors he worked with before?

Kim Jong-ho, Lee Ji-seok, Park Do-hoon, Lee Ji-hye. And many more.

First of all, lets keep a close eye on the actors from My Inner World Is KBC still running ads?

-Wow. Look at those ads. Theyre on the level of My Inner World.

-Lol. Lee Seo-jun is there. Hes also doing a congratulatory stage.

-Is he congratulating himself for winning an award? Lol.

-What will he do for the congratulatory stage? Usually, they do something similar to the drama.

-King! Become a king! Wear the dragon robe!

-Oh! That sounds good!

The ads ended and the red carpet that was spread out in front of the KBC hall came into view. The live camera moved and the actors appeared one by one.

The actors waved and greeted the crowd amid the loud cheers, took photos and did interviews at the photo zone.

A large car entered the spot where many actors had passed by. The reporters were the first ones to recognize the flashy black car.

Its Lee Seo-juns car!

Lee Seo-jun is here!

The flashes flickered. The car door opened and a tall man got out. Was he the manager? The flashes stopped for a moment.

Lee Ji-seok!?

Its Lee Ji-seok!

It was Lee Ji-seok. Kim Jong-ho and Park Do-hoon followed him. Finally, Lee Seo-jun stepped down to the ground and everyone took a group photo.

The flashes kept going off towards the actors from My Inner World, who had the most brilliant performance of the year.

Lee Seo-jun, who had taken countless photos and done an interview at the photo zone, sat down on the chair with his name on it. Lee Ji-seok and Park Do-hoon were on his sides, and Kim Jong-ho was next to Park Do-hoon.

Why am I not next to Seo-jun?

Maybe the staff considered the age difference, Jong-ho hyung?

Seo-jun and I are very close, you know?

Do you want me to switch with you?

Kim Jong-ho shook his head at Park Do-hoons words.

I would have taken Ji-seoks seat, but not yours.

Then lets do it like this. Whatever.

Park Do-hoon switched seats with Seo-jun. Lee Ji-seok, Park Do-hoon, Seo-jun, and Kim Jong-ho sat in a row.

Youre showing your true colors now, huh?

Hahaha.

They all laughed at Lee Ji-seoks words. Laughter also burst out in front of the four. Seo-jun leaned forward and the person in front also turned around.

PD-nim! Writer-nim!

PD Choi Min-seong and writer So Eun-jin, who hated showing their faces on television, were sitting in the front row. They seemed to have attended the awards ceremony as nominees for the writers award.

Congratulations! Youre nominated for the writers award, right?

Yes! Im so happy.

Honestly, everyone who watched My Inner World must have cried!

Its thanks to Seo-juns great acting! Seo-jun, congratulations on your nomination for the rookie award!

Thank you!

They complimented each other and enjoyed the joy of being nominated. Honestly, everyone from My Inner World who was nominated was smiling brightly.

Congratulations.

I hope to appear in your next project, writer-nim and PD-nim!

The actors who were looking for their seats also congratulated PD Choi Min-seong and writer So Eun-jin. They all looked at My Inner World, the most talked-about drama of the year, with envy.

Wow. Its Lee Seo-jun!

Lee Seo-jun!

Lee Seo-jun was a special existence even among the actors. He had appeared in a Hollywood movie that even adults would find hard to do at such a young age. And it was a series movie of The Marine. He wasnt the main character, but he played a role that was as memorable as the main character.

They all looked at Seo-jun with curious eyes.

An Da-ho, who had been away from his seat for a while, headed towards Seo-jun.

Seo-jun. Lets go prepare for the congratulatory stage.

Okay! Ill be back soon!

Come back safely!

Seo-jun waved his hand and left the My Inner World team.

-Red carpet is over!

-Todays My Inner World group appearance was hilarious lol.

-I never thought they would all come at once lol.

-But whats the first thing?

-I saw the leaked one,

=??

=???

=? Tell me already!

-Its an ad lol. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

The long and long ad ended and the title KBC Acting Awards appeared on the screen. The two MCs introduced themselves.

[Shall we start with the first congratulatory stage?]

[To be honest, I was shocked when I saw the script. I thought I would see it at the end.]

The people were wondering, wondering at the MCs words.

[Its Lee Seo-juns congratulatory stage!]

[The transformation of the werewolf!]

-Its only been five minutes since it started?! From the beginning?!

-Is KBCs ad okay? Is the rating okay?

KBC Broadcasting Station decided to get it over with quickly, since Cocoa Entertainment said that Seo-jun would only attend the first part. They were planning to make a separate edited version of the congratulatory performance anyway, so it was fine. The cameramen who had to pay attention to the camera movement were tense and focused on the stage.

Boom!

Boom!

The drum sound that echoed from the speaker made the audience in the auditorium and the viewers who were watching the television at home think of My Inner World reflexively. The drum sound was heard over the calm My Inner World OST.

Fog rose on the stage.

Boom! Boom!

The speaker roared loudly. The My Inner World fans groaned at the familiar drum sound.

[(Sun) The fog of the cloud whale is activated.]

The fog was thicker than the one from the broadcasting station.

[(Sun) The werewolf transformation of the shadow werewolf is activated.]

Seo-jun bent his knees and lowered his waist, pressing his wolf paw with jelly on the stage. The shadow wolf covered Seo-juns body.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A bright yellow full moon appeared on the screen behind the stage. Woo-woo, the sound of a wolf howling was heard. A camera focused on where Seo-jun was. Because of the fog, only a black object was visible. The light flashed.

Seo-jun ran. The camera moved with Seo-jun. The cameras moved without missing Seo-jun in the best spot.

The shadow wolf that moved zigzag slowly raised its upper body.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The fog slowly faded, and Seo-jun stood up.

Kyaaa!!

The internet was on fire along with the screams of the audience. The actors and the viewers were dumbfounded by Seo-juns unexpected appearance, and eventually burst into laughter.

-Oh my, what is this! Seong-nyeong Daegun, became a werewolf. Right!?

-Have you ever seen such a cute hybrid lol

Seo-jun walked swaggeringly in a purple robe embroidered with giraffes and cute wolf ears. There was a fluffy wolf tail behind the robe. It was Kim Hee-sangs work.

It was a different look from the Halloween festival when he was the same as a werewolf, but Seo-jun thought that there was no outfit that suited this place as much as this. The people who wanted to enjoy the werewolf transformation also laughed out loud.

-How did he move with the robe lol the robe lol

-Ah. The wolf ears are so cute lol

Unlike the Halloween festival when he just went in, Seo-jun waved and greeted the audience and turned around. The people who saw the glove on Seo-juns hand screamed again.

-Did you see? The glove! The jelly! Pink jelly!!

-Tail! Tail! The back view is also so cute!

Seo-jun turned around again at the reaction of the people and bowed as planned and ran. The fog thickened and the being that was human disappeared as a wolf.

Applause erupted everywhere.

-Ah lol I was trying to watch it seriously but I laughed lol

-Who thought of this lol Ill praise the wolf Daegunmama lol

-It suits the awards ceremony lol its funny though lol

-When its over, this is all Ill think of

Da-ho hyung, did I do well?

The reaction is really good. You did well!

Seo-jun smiled brightly and took off the headband with wolf ears. He took off the robe and changed his clothes. He drank the water that An Da-ho gave him and caught his breath.

After a while, Seo-jun returned to the My Inner World teams seat. They all welcomed Seo-jun. Lee Ji-seok asked.

Who thought of that? Seong-nyeong Daegunmama as a werewolf. I thought I was going to die laughing.

I did.

Seo-jun did?

Yes. I wanted to do something related to the drama since its an awards ceremony.

You did well. There are a lot of posts on the internet.

Seo-jun smiled sheepishly at Park Do-hoons words. The awards ceremony proceeded while Seo-jun was away. Usually, the rookie award was announced early, but KBC Broadcasting Station skipped the rookie award and announced the other awards first. It was because Seo-jun, who would receive the rookie award, was away for the congratulatory performance.

The rookie award is not bad. You can only get it once in your life.

Seo-jun nodded at Kim Jong-hos words. KBC Broadcasting Stations choice was also like that. Among the awards of Seo-jun, the actor with a bright future, the rookie award would only be from KBC Broadcasting Station. It would remain in Seo-juns memory and in peoples memory like that.

[Next is the KBC Acting Award, the Rookie Award.]

At the end of the first part, the MC opened his mouth. Everyones eyes were on the screen. Among the various dramas, the most eye-catching one was the bright smile of Seong-nyeong Daegun.

[Lee Seo-jun/Seong-nyeong Daegun(My Inner World)]

Seo Eun-hye, Lee Min-joon, Seo Eun-chan, and An Da-ho, who were watching from the audience, couldnt get rid of their nervousness even though they expected it.

[Rookie Award!]

[Drama My Inner World, Lee Seo-jun for the role of Seong-nyeong Daegun!]

Seo-juns face filled the screen. The people who were watching the live broadcast and the people who were in the audience all sent their congratulations.

Seo-jun smiled brightly and got up from his seat. Lee Ji-seok made way for him and Seo-jun received the bouquet that he had hidden while preparing for the congratulatory performance. Kim Jong-ho and Park Do-hoon also gave him bouquets.

Seo-jun, who had a bunch of bouquets in his arms, went up on the stage. The microphone was high, but soon a staff member handed him another microphone.

The MC handed him the trophy and the bouquet. Seo-juns face with the beautiful flowers filled the screen behind the stage.

The beautiful flowers and Seo-juns handsome face created a synergy and looked even more amazing.

-This is a meme material! Actors are different!

-Seong-nyeong Daegunmama. Congratulations!

-? Is that a dragon pattern?

-Dragon?

Hello. Im actor Lee Seo-jun.

Seo-juns voice was broadcasted to the people. Seo-jun smiled as brightly as he could and said.

Im very happy to receive the rookie award, which I can only get once in my life. There are so many people I want to share this joy with. All the actors and production staff who filmed with me for months. The viewers who loved My Inner World until the last episode with tears. My family and Cocoa Entertainment staff. I want to thank everyone. I want to be an actor who can stay in peoples hearts with my acting. Thank you.

Seo-jun bowed. Applause erupted. It was a short acceptance speech, but his sincerity was conveyed.

[Actor Lee Seo-jun, KBC Rookie Award Winner!]

-Rookie award? Shouldnt he get the best award?

-The rookie award is good. If you dont get it for My Inner World, youll hardly get it. You already filmed Shadowman, so you cant get the rookie award for movies.

-Seo-jun will get more awards in the future!

The first part of the acting awards ended with Seo-juns award. Seo-jun got up from his seat.

Then Ill go first!

Okay. Go home and rest quickly.

Im going to watch Ji-seok hyungs award at home!

Everyone laughed and greeted Seo-juns words. Seo-jun and An Da-ho left the hall and met his mom and dad who were waiting outside.

Seo-jun, congratulations on the rookie award!

Hehehe.

Lets go and wash up and watch Ji-seoks award.

Okay!

Seo-jun parted with An Da-ho and Seo Eun-chan and headed home with his mom and dad. There was not much traffic on the road, so they arrived home quickly.

They turned on the TV and watched KBC, but it seemed like there was still a long time left before Ji-seok hyung received his award.

Seo-jun and his parents quickly washed up and changed into pajamas. They sat on the sofa. Not long after, the MC announced the nominees for the acting award.

Among the various videos, Lee Ji-seoks back lying in front of the grave was seen. The viewers who had watched My Inner World had tears in their eyes just from that video.

-Wow. Acting with his back!

-Who else can get it if not Lee Ji-seok!

[Acting Award!]

[Drama My Inner World, Lee Ji-seok for the role of Heo Yu-seon!]

Lee Ji-seoks face was shown on the screen. Seo-jun was proud of Lee Ji-seoks face, which was brighter than ever. Although he couldnt hear it, Seo-jun clapped hard. Kim Jong-ho and Park Do-hoon gave Lee Ji-seok bouquets.

Lee Ji-seok, who had a bunch of bouquets in his arms, went up on the stage. He received the trophy and opened his mouth to the camera.

Hello. Im Lee Ji-seok. I have a lot to say, but I want to thank you first. The fans who always support me. The actors and production staff who filmed My Inner World with me

Seo-jun listened to Lee Ji-seoks speech and sent him a message. He would be happy to see it later!

Lee Ji-seok finished his speech and bowed and came down from the stage. The screen that showed the MCs face changed. It was Bosingak where people were gathered.

Is it already 12 oclock?

Its past Seo-juns bedtime.

Ill just watch the bell ringing and go to sleep!

Okay. I got it.

[This year is already ending. The old year is gone and the new year is coming. We hope that the viewers will have only happy and joyful things.]

The MCs voice was heard.

A large number appeared in the center of the screen. 10!

[Then, lets start the countdown!]

The people on the screen shouted the numbers and prayed.

Shall we pray too?

Please make us happy next year too.

Please keep our family healthy.

Seo-jun and his mom and dad prayed for a happy new year and counted the numbers together.

3!

2!

1!

Ding-!

[Viewers, happy new year!]

Ding-!

Ding-!

The bell rang 33 times.

It was the new year.
