Chereads / Entertaiment Industry: Behind The Script / Chapter 14 - In The Quiet Of My Heart (Part 2)

Chapter 14 - In The Quiet Of My Heart (Part 2)

When Im Giseok got credited for <> Ryu Seonggi was always making sarcastic remarks in the group chat, saying that Im Giseok should help him rise to fame once he got popular.

But when <> flopped, Ryu Seong-gi couldn't wait to share every piece of news analyzing the show's failure—he seemed to post about it hundreds of times a day.

Im Giseok didn't understand why this person was still on his ChirpChat friends list, so he quickly deleted him.

Then he went ahead and removed all his classmates from his contacts, and suddenly the world felt much quieter.

...

Im Giseok was looking at the script sent to him by Lee Ha-yoon.

Im Giseok had written more original scripts, including historical dramas, detective shows, and professional dramas—he had explored all sorts of genres.

But the pile of scripts that Lee Hayoon sent over was a real mess; it was obvious that several writers had cobbled them together.

Fortunately, the main storyline of the sweet drama was clear and straightforward.

Im Giseok didn't need to rack his brain to figure out the scene transitions or the characters' psychological changes.

He just needed to focus on writing along the sweet and romantic line.

As for character interactions, Im Giseok found it incredibly easy.

In no time, he had revised two episodes.

Lee Hayoon, who was eager to move things along, arranged to meet Im Giseok the next morning.

While Im Giseok was on his way, he kept chatting with Lee Ha-yoon, thoroughly figuring out the details of the production team.

They agreed to meet at a nearby coffee shop.

Im Giseok arrived just a few minutes early. Inside the coffee shop, only two men were sitting in the corner.

As Im Giseok walked in, the two men exchanged glances.

"That... must be Im Giseok, right?"

Suddenly, a light bulb went off in Lee Hayoon's head, "Could Emperor Boss be..."

The rating flop of <> was well-known in the industry, and as a result, Im Giseok's face had also became familiar to everyone in the screenwriting circle.

Lee Hayoon could hardly imagine what it would be like if Im Giseok really was the screenwriter they had been talking to, Emperor Boss...

But if Im Giseok really was Emperor Boss...

Lee Hayoon was very satisfied with the revised script by Emperor Boss and immediately sent it to the director, Yoo Oncheong.

Yoo Oncheong quickly gave it a thumbs-up and even joined Lee Hayoon in coming here to meet the new writer for the production team.

Both of them were hoping that Im Giseok wouldn't be heading their way, but with every step, Im Giseok walked more confidently toward them.

When he sat down, he slapped the cover of the script onto the table.

It was their new show, <>.

"You are...?" Lee Hayoon still didn't want to believe it.

Im Giseok's words shattered his last bit of wishful thinking.

"I'm Emperor Boss from the forum."
