Inside the high-end Flavors restaurant in Seoul, Atlas and Chang Mi-Sun sat opposite each other. In front of each of them was a contract.
It had been three days since the two of them reached an agreement. Atlas had now officially signed Chang Mi-Sun as his assistant.
Chang Mi-Sun put the contract into her bag and took out another document. "Mr. Sang, I have observed many domestic actors in the past few days as to who you want to cast as your female lead. These few are more in line with your standards. They're not big names, but their acting skills are on point. so it's easy to sign any of them."
After taking the document, Atlas started flipping through it.
After it was confirmed that "Only You" would be filmed, Atlas had decided to continue to use Son Youngsoo and Heo Jiwoo as the assistant director and the leading actor respectively.
They all had good capabilities, and it could also be considered as doing Madam Chang a favor.
As for the female lead, after discussing with Chang Mi-Sun, Atlas decided to select and train them by continually casting them in his movies.
He nodded in acknowledgement. He was convinced that Chang Mi-Sun was indeed very capable at work.
This document lists five actresses that Atlas had never heard of, each in a different aspect. Some were fourth-tier actors whose contracts had just expired, and some were supporting actors who used to play small roles with only two or three lines.
The obvious similarities were that they all had good looks and had played roles like schoolgirls before.
Chang Mi-Sun clearly marked the TV series in which these people had participated, as well as the episodes and minutes in which they appeared.
It took only three days to complete, all this showing how hard it was for her, working nonstop.
"Let's eat first. When I get home, I will refer to their previous roles and think carefully about which one is the most suitable."
Chang Mi-Sun listened to Atlas's words without making any comment.

Later, deep into the night, Atlas was on his computer, watching a clip over and over again.
The actress played the role of a female student who loved the male protagonist and carefully put a love letter inside the male protagonist's desk, but the supporting character finds out and snatches the letter away.
Looking at the screen, her eyes were filled with helplessness and anger, which made Atlas feel distressed. Without further delay, he picked up his phone and messaged Chang Mi-Sun. "Miss Chang, I've decided to take Miss Cho Mi-Cha."
Atlas made the final decision after watching the actress' minor roles in other TV series, and found her other roles acceptable. This little actress named Cho Mi-Cha showed great acting skills when she played the role of a female student. More so, she did have some unique specialty about her.
"OK, I'll contact her tomorrow." Chang Mi-Sun responded to the message..
Atlas was shocked. He wasn't expecting her to respond until morning. Wasn't she suppose to be sleeping by now? He glanced at the clock on the wall and sent a message back to her. "It's already three o'clock in the morning, shouldn't you already be in bed?"
"It's okay. I was busy sorting out the materials and will be able to complete the studio procedures in a few days."
Chang Mi-Sun's reply made Atlas think back to his past life. He seemed to have worked just as hard when he first started out as a director in his previous life.
