The Third-Gen Chaebol Becomes a Genius Actor

Chapter 14.2

Translator's note: ( ɵ̥̥ ﹏ ɵ̥̥) everyone is just surprised every single time. I now have a dictionary opened to describe surprise so that the word surprise won't be surprisingly repetitive…. Okay, I'll go away now. Enjoy reading!

"I wasn't sure how many people would be here, so I bought a lot. Please help yourself."

"Uh…yes, thank you."

"Ac- I did all the work, but oh well."

Lee Tae Gyeom grumbled, and the person standing next to him accepted it.

Yoo Yeon Seo walked slowly toured the inside of the action school. The construction site had been renovated with a cool, high ceiling and stacked mats. A long rope hung on one wall for rappelling training, and everyone had a strong smell of sweat, indicating that they had worked out not too long ago.

‘It's nice.' If it were the original Yoo Yeon Seo, he would have been disgusted and nauseous, but the familiar smell of people sweating made him feel better now.

"Hello, Yoo Yeon Seo-ssi."

Someone approached him from behind. Their body was a bit slender but it looked firm and smooth without any wrinkles, his strong and fierce features could be seen at a glance.

"I am Park Sung Jin, the martial arts director who runs the Cheonha Action School."

"Hello, I'm Yoo Yeon Seo."

Yoo Yeon Seo shook hands with Park Sung Jin and noticed his firm calluses.

"Whilst you study here, I will be your personal guide, Yoo Yeon Seo."

"Personally? You don't have to do that, Director. I'm just a beginner."

When Yoo Yeon Seo spoke gently, the people around her had shocked faces.

‘Hmm, is that the rumoured Yoo Yeon Seo? But why is the manager also so surprised?'

"I'm paying more attention because you're a beginner. We can't afford for you to get hurt."

In fact, there was also something burdening about the enormous tuition paid by Yoo Yeon Seo.

"If you get hurt, we'll be even more tired."

Director Park Sung Jin actually didn't want to accept Yoo Yeon Seo. He didn't want to cater to the whims of a difficult student. But at that time, the operating costs of the action school were insufficient, so he reluctantly accepted him.

‘I am sure he will naturally drop out once we begin the high-intensity training.'

He gestured to a junior martial arts coach. After understanding his intention, the junior coach nodded his head.

"Alright! Let's start training!"

Once he clapped his hands, the coach and trainees moved in perfect order. Among the people standing in line, Yoo Yeon Seo stared at Director Park Sung Jin.

"Since it's your first time, follow us and start with stretching, then we'll move on to basic routines. It's okay to be inexperienced."

"Yes."

Yoo Yeon Seo took a spot at the back. His eyes were filled with anticipation. They would probably start with light exercises, like in acting class, right?

"One!"

"Two!"

Under the direction of the junior martial art coach, high-intensity stretching began.

They did various exercises, such as sit-ups, planks, and squats, and even the skilled trainees were panting and sweating, but Yoo Yeon Seo didn't give up.

‘What? He's holding up well?'

Director Park Sung Jin's expression changed. What he emphasized most to his trainees while running the action school was not physical fitness, but willpower. Those who tried to keep up to the end without giving up despite the difficulties became his junior directors and were still active.

"If you are able to do this, I will change my mindset."

According to rumours, Yoo Yeon Seo, who would have kicked up a fuss, asking why they were doing this kind of training; gritted his teeth and held on.

Director Park Sung Jin signalled to the junior coach who was leading the exercise to stop.

<Master, are you alright?>

‘I can still handle it… I guess this body is more trash than I thought.'

When Yoo Yeon Seo transmigrated to this body, the first thing he prioritized was memory synchronization and bodybuilding.

The original Yoo Yeon Seo had only made a body that looked good, but it was not useful in practical situations. That's why he continued the 2207 training routine every day without fail, although it was still a challenge to bring his body to the state it was in during the post-destruction era.

"Alright! stretching is over! Rest for 5 minutes and move on to basic movements!"

"Yes!"

Everyone collapsed on the floor, including Yoo Yeon Seo. Lee Tae Gyeom, who was watching from behind, offered a towel and a drink.

"Wow, you're holding up well."

Even when he was a manager, he knew that Yoo Yeon Seo went to the gym regularly, but he didn't expect him to keep up this well. Yoo Yeon Seo emptied a whole bottle of drink during that short time.

"Alright! 5 minutes over! Stand up again!"

Yoo Yeon Seo groaned as he lifted his heavy body.

"One!"

"Hey!"

The trainees yelled loudly and kicked. Yoo Yeon Seo adjusted his stance.

"Two!"

"Hey!"

Then, Yoo Yeon Seo also began to yell loudly along with the trainees and extended his right foot into the air.

"What?"

Director Park Sung Jin, who was watching from behind, became befuddled. The movement was… flawless.

"One!"

"Hey!"

Moreover, as Yoo Yeon Seo repeated the movement, it became more sophisticated and sharp.

"…Did he learn something like Ho Shin Sool?"

[TN: Ho Shin Sool means Protect mind and body. A form of self-defence. Not too sure if it's classed as a martial art though].

At that moment when Director Park Sung Jin unconsciously brought his hand to Yoo Yeon Seo's shoulder, Yoo Yeon Seo's gaze sharply lit up.

Yoo Yeon Seo swiftly twisted his body backwards and hit Director Park Sung Jin's arms with both hands. He then grabbed his wrist and subdued him by twisting it to his back. It all happened in just a few seconds, with concise and neat movements.

"Heo-eok…"

Director Park Sung Jin, who was suppressed, gasped in surprise, and the eyes of the junior directors and trainees who noticed the commotion turned to them.

"What, what was that?"

"Director Park, were you just overpowered?"

"What just happened?"

After a brief hesitation, Yoo Yeon Seo regained his composure and released his grip. He gently patted Director Park Sung Jin's shoulder and apologized.

"Ah, I'm sorry. It's just an old habit that came back after moving my body so intensely for the first time in a while. That's why I did that."
