Chapter 55 - Rise of Im Giseok (Part 1)

[ ...I just can't stop watching!! ]

[ As a loyal viewer, I never expected <> to go in this direction before I clicked on it. ]

[ When is the next episode coming out?! Hurry up and release it!! ]

[ @BingeBox, stop with the gossip and focus on releasing the episodes! ]

<> has already been the most-watched show on all major platforms, and the viewership numbers for the recent episodes have been steady.

However, after the truth about Im Giseok being scapegoated was revealed, the views surged once again.

BingeBox took the "Im Giseok is the greatest screenwriter ever" approach, and for the past few days, they've been running non-stop gossiping about Kim Soseong on their official account, 24/7.

Regarding the fans' demands for more episodes, the platform did not ignore them.

In fact, the filming of <> has always been a top priority for BingeBox, and the efficiency is considered the highest among all of its projects.

However, the speed of filming will never match how quickly the fans watch.

As soon as one ten-minute episode finishes, they immediately ask for the next one—even if the filming equipment sparks like crazy, it can't keep up!

[ If they can't film <> fast enough, why not start a new show? ]

BingeBox: "..."

The fans have obviously forgotten that before <>, BingeBox was just an insignificant little video website.

Not only was it small in scale, but in terms of resources, talent pool, and audience trust, it couldn't compare to its competitors.

Actually, BingeBox does want to produce a new show, but they are worried it might take attention away from <>.

As for Im Giseok, the filming of <> was finally reaching its end.

When the last scene finished filming, Lee Hayoon and Yoo Oncheong both showed signs of relief.

When the show first started, their only expectation was that it wouldn't be too bad and that it could attract at least some viewers—at least not worse than Lee Hayoon's previous production.

But after Im Giseok took over the script, their expectations for the show gradually grew higher.

The closer they got to finishing the shoot, the more they anticipated the audience's reaction once the show aired.

This was the confidence that Im Giseok's script gave them.

"It's finally done," Lee Hayoon sighed, "Half a month faster than I expected."

It was mainly because Im Giseok wrote the script so efficiently—fast yet maintaining it's quality.

He not only designed the plot with tight logic but also guided the actors to deliver the best performances in specific scenes.

Lee Hayoon and Yoo Oncheong hadn't initially aimed for <> to be a high-quality drama, but as they kept filming, it became clear in their minds that this show was turning into one.

There was one thing Lee Hayoon hadn't told Im Giseok.
