Joon-won just continued to look at the actors as the camera started rolling and the set went into complete silence. Hea-Jung already changed her dress and sat on the bench with a cup of coffee in her hand. In the scene there were 5 actors, all of them were playing important roles in the movie. 

Everyone was slowly sipping their coffee before the hero who was standing threw the coffee to the ground and grunted, “Damn it. We can’t find one proper clue which shows us the way to the culprit. They framed it so well as a suicide and covered their tracks completely that even the chief told us to close the case as a suicide. We need to quickly find a clue or else it will become harder for us to investigate.” 

Everyone remained silent hearing him as the heroine was the next person to speak, “You should calm down first. Why are you throwing a fit? It does nothing now. We searched everywhere and didn’t find a proper clue, which means we only missed something in the process.” 

Next, one of the two other actors Joon-won never met spoke with a hint of realization as he clapped his hands, “Ah! Should we retrace all our steps and look closer?” 

The other actor Joon-won never met immediately spoke. “We can’t do that, idiot. We have no time. The chief only gave us the end of the week to get new leads or a solid clue. If not, he is closing the case and assigning another one for us. So we only have 3 days left.” 

This made everyone go silent as the hero spoke again while looking at Hea-Jung. ” Why are you so silent? You went to talk with that shop owner, right? Did anything seem off? The kidnapping had to be done there, that’s for sure. Did he seem to hide something?” 

Hea-Jung, who was sipping her coffee, looked up to him and said, “I went to get something out of that guy, but he was so adamant about not seeing anything and that he fell sick. I even pointed my gun at him, but he stuck to his story. But it seemed like he was a bit nervous, but I thought it was because I was a police officer. Do you want to interrogate him? I can bring him in tomorrow.”

The hero nodded and replied, “Yeah, sure. He must have something we need. If he doesn’t we might have to give up. Let’s see what he says tomorrow when he is inside the interrogation room. I also want all the information on him. Check if he has any criminal records that we can use tomorrow. I want to see if he has something to hide or not with my own eyes.” 

Everyone nodded and walked away, leaving the two main leads alone as both of them slowly walked out of the park. The cameras were still rolling and the other actors slowly got behind the camera. Hea-Jung made her way towards him as she took a seat to watch the shoot, too. 

Hea-Jung leaned towards him and said, “How was it? Wasn’t I the best in that scene just now?” 

Joon-won moved a little further away from her as he replied, “Try to maintain your image at least a little when you are outside. If anyone sees you acting like that, it would be bad. Also, you only had one dialogue. What’s there to be proud of? If you are good, the people will tell you, no need to ask.”

Hea-Jung just turned around and continued to see the shoot, as she decided to ignore his words completely. It didn’t take long for the scene to end as he heard the director shout cut. After hearing him, everyone moved around once again as they started to wrap up the entire set. Joon-won, on the other hand, was still waiting for the assistant to come and give him the schedule. 

Just as he was thinking that a man came towards him and asked, “Are you actor Joon-won?” 

Joon-won stood up and nodded as the assistant gave him a paper before saying, “This is your schedule for the week. Please be prepared and come on time to finish your shooting. The director is very adamant about that. Tomorrow we will shoot your interrogation scene in the police set back in the hall. Please be there at 10 in the morning. The shooting starts at 10:30.” After he said that, he just turned around and walked away. He had too many things to do and gave that paper to him because the director asked him to. 

Joon-won looked at the schedule and noticed how all of his remaining 5 scenes were cleanly timed. It was Wednesday and his last shoot was next Friday. After that, he could go back home on Saturday. Nodding to himself, he turned towards Hea-Jung and said, “Alright, I’m going back to prepare for tomorrow. You have more scenes to shoot?” 

Hea-Jung nodded and said, “Yes, I got another scene to shoot for today. Go on ahead, do you want me to ask Sister Han to drop you off at the hotel?” 

Joon-won shook his head and just walked away. He just flagged down a cab and got in before giving a phone call to Min-Seok. 

“Hello, dad. Are you back home? What is Yun-hee doing?” 

[Yes, Joon-won. I just came back home. Yun-hee is in her room. She went to the library today and got a few books. I think they are about the course she is going to take. I tried to take a look, but she was quick to cover. I don’t understand why that girl is being so secretive to both of us.. Anyway, enough about us. How are you? Are you fine?]
