The writer and director of 'White Tiger Ship,' who arrived at the meeting place, got off the elevator.

They, who were slow to receive news, learned during the meeting that the casting had already been confirmed, and the relationship between Yoo Yeonseo and the group 'One Seven' led by Lee Hangeul was not good.

"I didn't know Yoo Yeonseo would accept the meeting request."

"Turns out, their relationship isn't that bad, huh?"

Even though they saw Yoo Yeonseo's expression, they couldn't replace him, as there were already articles about the casting, and the firepower of 'One Seven' fandom couldn't be ignored.

As a compromise, they decided to have a pre-meeting with the main and supporting actors. Surprisingly, Yoo Yeonseo, who originally didn't participate in such gatherings, was the first to express his intention to attend. The author and director took it as a positive sign.

"Hello."

"You're already here?"

However, as they opened the door to the meeting room with cheerful steps, they stopped in their tracks due to the stifling atmosphere.

"What's going on? Why is the atmosphere like this?"

Yoo Yeonseo with a calm face, Lee Hangeul looking strangely displeased, and Park Minwoo, who was watching both sides.

"No way, is it because of Yoo Yeonseo?"

In this situation, Yoo Yeonseo seemed the least concerned about others' opinions. He couldn't afford to change his demeanor, considering the firepower of 'One Seven' fandom.

"Hello."

Inside the meeting room, Im Taegyeom was enough, so Im Seunghyun, who was briefly in the corridor, raised his head at someone's greeting.

"Yes, hello."

"Yoo Yeonseo's secretary, right?"

Im Seunghyun raised an eyebrow. Usually, people following celebrities are known as managers or directors. Why immediately assume it's a secretary?

"Yes, but who are you?"

"Oh, I'm the manager of One Seven, Oh Beomsu."

"But?"

Im Seunghyun had a keen sense, and he felt that Oh Beomsu didn't approach him in a positive way. When a naturally stiff response came, Oh Beomsu became hesitant.

"The secretary changed again, so... Can I contact you in the future?"

"What for?"

"Don't you know yet?"

Oh Beomsu rolled his eyes awkwardly. In fact, he tried to avoid Im Seunghyun's sharp gaze.

"Shall I try something?"

Observing Oh Beomsu for a while, Im Seunghyun took out a business card from his pocket.

"I think I know. Contact me here in the future."

"Oh, you know. I'll contact you when needed."

Smiling, Im Seunghyun handed over the business card, and Oh Beomsu, seeming relieved, bowed and entered the meeting room. Im Seunghyun, left in the corridor, pondered.

"This is strange..."

Wasn't it over with One Seven seven years ago? Why would there be a reason to contact their manager?

After the stifling meeting, they finally began full-scale preparations for shooting. Except for Yoo Yeonseo, who was originally exercising, Park Minwoo and Lee Hangeul hurriedly began physical training.
