Inseop, who was left alone, sighed and leaned on the seat. He pretended nothing was wrong, but because he was conscious of Lee Wooyeon, his shoulders felt sore. He asked him not to touch him outside, but he was very nervous because he didn’t know when he would suddenly reach out. Still, Lee Wooyeon kept his promise and joked, but he was not as aggressive as before.

Inseop suddenly took his cell phone out of his pocket and started searching. Starting with the portal site, he went around fan cafes, communities, etc. in turn to search all the posts that appeared by typing Lee Wooyeon’s name.

“Thank god… “

He did not see any strange story. Inseop found Lee Wooyeon’s article on the portal site with confidence and expressed sympathy for the good comments. The malicious comments caught his eye. It was true that CEO Kim said that antis had increased. Inseop worked hard to suppress his disagreement one by one.

After some time doing that, his shoulders were stiff, so he looked up and checked the time.

About half an hour had passed. Interviews usually end in an hour. It takes an hour and a half to take a picture, so there’s still 40 minutes left before it’s over. Inseop took off his seat belt and went out of the car thinking of looking around the cafe.

The cafe was quiet because it was a weekday. The interview was in progress at a cafe annex, so there was no one nearby. Inseop, who was looking around, narrowed his eyes to see a black car parked next to the cafe parking lot. The license plate looked familiar. It was definitely the car that was parked next to him when he left the company gate… No, he saw it at the intersection before entering here. Right behind him

Inseop approached the black car without hesitation. He took a deep breath and tapped the glass of the driver’s seat. The glass of the car went down, and the bearded man put on an irritated face. A large camera next to the driver’s seat caught Inseop’s eyes.

“I know you’re following me.”

“What?”

“I don’t know for what purpose you’re following me, but you shouldn’t do this. It’s against the law. Please delete the picture you took.”

“Ha, what are you really saying? Do you know who I am?”

The man laughed as if he was saying something ridiculous. Choi Inseop did not know where he got the courage from, but he replied calmly. The man got out of the car.

“Are you Lee Wooyeon’s manager?”

“Yes, I am.”

“There’s nothing good in behaving like this to me. I’m going to die of annoyance because I got nothing all day.”

Inseop breathed a sigh of relief inwardly at the word nothing.

“Please. Please ask for an official interview and take a picture.”

The man put a cigarette in his mouth and lit it. Cigarette smoke came over Inseop’s head. Inseop coughed quietly and frowned.

“Hey, manager. That’s so frustrating. It hasn’t been long since you started working, has it? You really don’t know anything.”

Under the man’s short-sleeves, an old tattooed blue dye was seen. His tone and appearance seemed to be of no ordinary reporter. To be honest, he was scared. But he couldn’t back down. Even more so if this man was from Kang Youngmo.

“Please request an official interview through the company. Otherwise, I don’t allow you to take pictures and publish articles.”

The man tapped Inseop on the shoulder, saying, “Look at me.”

“I think you’re mistaken, but you’re not the one who gives permission to film. If we take it, we take it, and if we don’t, we don’t. The company knows all this and moves on, so don’t be too up-tight. Can’t you understand the situation as the manager?”

“I’m telling you that nothing can’t be done.”

The man’s expression turned ugly when Inseop, who looked gentle, did not bend to his will.

“Do you think you’re something because your actor is popular? Yes, you bastard slave who sucks on celebrity assholes.”

“I hope you don’t chase him like this again. Please.”

Inseop politely asked in a trembling voice, but the man threw the cigarette butts at Inseop’s feet and began to grumble.

“I shouldn’t follow him around when he’s popular, but when he loses popularity, he’ll be left with nothing. Then later, they’ll grovel on the floor, pay me, and beg me to take their picture..”

“Then I’ll ask you to do that at that time.”

Not only Inseop but also the man turned around in surprise at the voice heard from behind. Lee Wooyeon handed the iced coffee to Inseop.

“If I knew the reporter was here, I would have bought another drink,”

Lee Wooyeon said while drinking the coffee in his hand. The way he spoke was friendly, but Inseop noticed the cold stare that passed through Lee Wooyeon’s eyes.

“… Are you done already?”

“Break time.”

During the interview, Lee Wooyeon looked through the window and did not take his eyes off Inseop. As soon as Inseop knocked on the door of a black car, he stopped the interview and came out right away.

“You may go in. I’ll take care of it.”

Lee Wooyeon did not budge and turned to the man even after listening to Inseop.

“What were you two talking about?”

“The manager seems to have some misunderstanding,” the man replied with a sly smile.

“No, I’m sure…”

Inseop was about to talk, but Lee Wooyeon raised his hand to stop him.

“If my manager made a mistake, I’ll apologize for him.”

“Don’t mention it. He’s very uptight but he doesn’t look like that.”

“My manager is kind of strict when it comes to work.”

Lee Wooyeon’s words made the man’s face happy. He thought they could communicate now.

In fact, it was clearly against the law to sneak around and take pictures like this. However, the public wanted to know the celebrities’ private lives, and celebrities gained public attention through that. Among them, the paparazzi acted like bastards. There was even a saying that the amount of photos released was a measure of popularity. So, it was a fact that the agency also turned a blind eye to it to some extent.

“But you know the case of Jinsu-mi, who was my stalker, right?”

“Of course I do.”

Lee Wooyeon’s stalker case also raised alarm in the entertainment industry. There was even a movement to propose a bill on illegitimate fans. Although it was a criminal complaint because it was an injury case where she stabbed a person with a knife, Lee Wooyeon also sued Jinsu-mi for invasion of privacy and intimidation and even appointed a large law firm to claim compensation for mental damage. This should never happen again, he announced that he would not agree to any leniency.

The incident was also common, but Lee Wooyeon’s handling was so severe that it was unusual in the industry that it was stuck in the minds of reporters.

“You know, after that incident, our company is in a position that we don’t take any good care of stalkers.”

“…Oh, yes.”

The man replied with a bitter look. When Lee Wooyeon first appeared, he thought the talk was going well, but the atmosphere was getting weird.

“Then I believe you will understand.”

Lee Wooyeon, who said so, handed the coffee in his hand to Inseop. Then he put his hand into the car and took out the camera.

“No, what are you doing now!”

The man shouted urgently. Regardless, Lee Wooyeon took out his memory card, bent it in half in front of the reporter, and hit the camera on the floor. Surprised, Inseop gasped.

“Hey! Do you know how much this costs?”

The man picked up the shattered camera and shouted, staring at Lee Wooyeon.

“You can charge our company for the camera.”

“What are you doing with me now!”

The man’s face flushed with anger and grabbed Lee Wooyeon by the collar. Inseop tried to stop the man, but Lee Wooyeon blocked Inseop with his arm.

“The manager should stay still.”

His voice was so cold. His gentle eyes did not have any emotion.

Lee Wooyeon knew early on that a black car followed them, but he didn’t care. Taking a few pictures didn’t change anything. However, he could not pass what the worm-like reporter said to Inseop.

Inseop bowed his head even after hearing the insult that he was a bastard slave who sucks on celebrity assholes.Actually, he was the one who sucked Inseop’s hole.

Lee Wooyeon swallowed an incoming burst of laughter.

“Didn’t I tell you earlier?””

After Lee Wooyeon took back the coffee in Inseop’s hand and took a sip, he continued.

“There’s no mercy.”
