HIS SMILE

Chapter 26

"I cried so loudly. Our baby really didn't have it easy."

"I saw Jin fall to the ground after being hit with a stick and he couldn't get up. Other people in the crew walked past him but no one helped him up."

"I'm a passerby fan, crying and using up a packet of tissues."

"I'm just a passerby. After watching this video, I feel helpless and sad. In the film and television circle, how many actors are like Jin, dreaming of becoming a star? Jin's facial features are outstanding yet he fared so badly. How hard are those who aren't as good as him?"

"The upstairs sister is a bit naïve. How can Jin be miserable when he looks so good? He was miserable because he wasn't obedient enough. To put it bluntly, he is unwilling to accept certain rules. I have a friend who is an insider. I had dinner with him two days ago and just talked about Jin. He said that Jin is a very good person. He is always silly and happy in the crew. Even if he is tired to death, he can happily eat a boxed meal with the crew. He also said that Jin is very frugal at ordinary times. He was reluctant to drink a bottle of mineral water. He usually took a large plastic kettle and ran to a drinking point to collect boiled water. My friend is very happy that Jin finally succeeded. I hope he will develop more and more in the future."

"By the way, I'm not sure if this is true insider information. I heard there is a decent entertainment company who took a fancy to Jin and is ready to train him. If this information is reliable, Jin won't have to live such a miserable life in the future." 

Jin's team saw the netizen's explosive comments and went to ask Hoseok. "Hoseok hyung, is this explosion true or false?'

"This happened last year in the Heroic Ruler crew." Hoseok glanced at the explosive content. "It seems the informant's friend should be a member of the Heroic Ruler crew."

"Jin really lived so badly." The staff felt that Jin was probably the worst artist he had ever met.

"There was no way." Hoseok sighed. "At that time, we were really poor. We had to rely on the crew's meal boxes to barely live."

"It is miserable, too terrible." The staff took out a half-eaten packet of chips from the draw and handed it to Hoseok. "Take it and eat it. Don't give it back to me."

Hoseok, "......"

Did he go a bit overboard selling misery?

In the dark room, only the faint light on the computer screen flickered. Once the video showed Jin's head hitting the wall or when he lay on the ground in pain, his white fingers held the mouse and clicked pause. 

He put down the mouse, moved his hand slightly to the right and picked up the phone on the table. 10 hours had passed and he hadn't received any news from Jin. He stared at the still screen for half a minute before finally clicking on the play button. The scene changed again. Jin was dressed in the costume of the heroine and wore a wig as he jumped into the mud.

The child kept smiled as he did his best to control his desire to shiver from the cold. Again and again, again and again, until he was exhausted. Then the director was finally satisfied with the scene.

The second hand on the clock was constantly ticking. Jungkook looked at the last shot of the warmly smiling young man and once again pressed pause.
