Rebirth: King to Superstar

Looking at how she indirectly called Roh Ji an idiot, Joon-won couldn't help but shake his head. 'This girl's words are really going to make problems for me. Even though what she said is true. Luckily that idiot isn't here and is overlooking the practice. I should first send this girl away, she only brings problems.'

"It's just bad luck and I am fine with this role. Young miss, don't you have to go and rat lunch with that friend of yours. I am sure he is waiting for you." Not hiding his desire to send her away.

She smiled and replied, "It's ok. That idiot can wait. I'm more willing to spend my time chatting with you than eating an irritating lunch with him. So anyway, I have to say once again, if it wasn't for this nonsense if a story your class writer wrote and the small role, you could get better marks and get into the Star Batch."

He turned around, closed his eyes, and said, "I am fine the way it is. I don't see any need of getting into the Star Batch. It's only a bunch of wannabes with a handful of people who can get the job done. I am willing to take the harder route if I can avoid stupid people there." Dissing her in the process.

After a moment of silence, she started laughing and stood up. While patting his shoulder, she bended down next to his ear andwhispered, "I feel like you and I can become best of friends. Our thoughts are too similar and you are very interesting. Well, I'll be going for now or the bull outside will go on a rampage. I'll come back tomorrow to watch your acting and bring a gift for you like the older sister." With the same smile, she leaned back and walked out of the room.

Everyone simply watched her walk out and then turned towards him. He couldn't care less about what they think and simply closed his eyes. After a while, the practice finally finished and everyone was in the backstage with Roh Ji at the front, making an announcement.

"Alright guys, let's break for lunch and come back for one more practice. We still have to tweak a few things here and there." Clapping her hands like a boss.

Joon-won and Jung-hwa walked to a nearby stall and had a quick yet tasty lunch. Both continued to talk about their plans for the summer and the exam tomorrow.

"Don't worry too much. If the judges are impartial and have even a bit of knowledge of acting, I'm sure you'll win the prize money for our drama. You are after all better than both the lead idiots." He said simply. He had confidence in her and his teaching.

Jung-hwa could only wryly smile at how confident he was. She was nowhere near that confident in her own acting skills and was always worrying about it. She decided to change over the course of summer and be a better person by the staff of the new semester.

She nodded, and both of them walked back to the auditorium for another final rehearsal. This time without any disturbance, the rehearsal went smoothly with him, wasting most of his time sitting idly, not doing anything except scrolling through his phone for anything interesting.

The rehearsal completed and everyone once again met backstage for one last time. Joon-won noticed Roh Ji standing with Hyeong Myung and the drama's female lead with a few boxes beside them at the front of the group.

"Alright guys, now this is the end of our last and final practice for our finals. Let's clap for all the hard work we put in and hope we do our best tomorrow in front of the examiners and judges." She started clapping, followed by everyone. Joon-won almost coughed up blood when she shamelessly talked about 'hard work'.

"Ok, now before we go back home and get some rest, I need to give out these costumes for the students in the drama. The order we placed finally arrived and the people with student roles please don't forget to take one pair. You can change your dress after coming here. Our drama Joon-won.would be after the Star Batch one, so let's do our best. Alright everyone except the people who play as students can leave." And the majority of the people left except 10-15 people including

Everyone took out their uniforms, acting like monkeys. He stood there waiting for them to finish with Jung-hwa. There were names on the covers and there wasn't any reason for them to rush. After everyone took their costume, Joon-won grabbed the last two on the table and handed Jung-hwa hers.

"I heard you are bad-mouthing me in front of Senior today, Joon-won." He heard a noisy sound behind him as he was about to leave. He didn't want to deal with the nonsense and continued to head out.

"Hey, I'm talking to you, idiot. Are you not only poor but also deaf?" She kept shouting and insulting him.

Joon-won looked over his shoulder to see her face twisted with jealousy and anger. He sighed and said, "And why should I do that? Even if I have a gun on my forehead, I won't waste my breath at people like you. You are just not worth it and I don't even know the seniors." And walked out.

He went to the store and saw Seonu at the counter. He waved his hand and walked inside to get a few things for dinner. He wanted to cook some meat and grabbed a few. As he walked to the counter, the boss came out of the back door.

"Oh, Joon-won. How are you? Isn't your exam tomorrow?"
