As her status isn't the same as before, Jeonghwan could no longer be seen entering the airport with Jooeun. Even though the temperature is hot, Jooeun wrapped herself up tightly. However, before she stepped out of the car, Jeonghwan gently patted her on the head as he spoke. "There are a lot of fans at the airport. If they see us together, it will cause you trouble. I will wait for you in the first-class cabin. You are currently on the rise, you can't have any scandals."
Jooeun lift her head to look at Jeonghwan with an apologetic look in her eyes. In reality, she is Jeonghwan's wife, but they could never be seen in public together. Sometimes they even had to act like complete strangers. But she also understood. Jeonghwan didn't want her hard-earned achievements to go to waste.
Thinking of this, Jooeun gave a reassuring smile as she held onto Jeonghwan's hand. "Wait for me. Wait until I am on the same level as you. I will personally announce to the world that we are husband and wife; an invincible married couple."
Jeonghwan wrapped his hand around her neck as he pulled her in for a kiss. His eyes twinkled like a vast sea of stars. "You should get going."
In reality, Jeonghwan really wanted to keep Jooeun hidden away in his home. That way only he could come in contact with her beauty. However, Jooeun was born for the runway. Her superstar aura couldn't be denied. So sending Jooeun to the pinnacle is his mission and aim in life.
This feeling made him feel helpless, but also happy.
Jooeun stepped out of the Bentley Limo, changed into another luxury car, and headed to the airport with Minjung and Hyewon. Because the Oriental Trend was a big hit, there's no way the airport would be as peaceful as when Jooeun first arrived, so Jeonghwa organized for 4 bodyguards to follow her.
"Ahhh!! It's Cha Jooeun!"
The screams of the people coming from inside the airport could already be heard from the sidewalk outside. Jooeun unconsciously started walking faster. Deep down, she sighed. How could these people have such good eyesight? She wrapped herself up so tightly, yet they still recognized her.
"Jooeun, things have really changed." Minjung sighed behind her. "You have the option of taking the VIP entry to avoid the fans, do you want to do that?"
"Of course not." Jooeun immediately rejected the option. "If I can't even handle this, how many fans would be disappointed? My fans are supporting my career, there is no reason for me to avoid them." Jooeun decided to hold her head high as she headed into the airport. Upon seeing her, fans and reporters all flocked to her side. Jeonghwan's bodyguards quickly formed a human barrier and escorted her to pass the security checks into the waiting area.
"Cha Jooeun! Can we get your autograph?"
"Cha Jooeun, we really like you! You need to keep going!"
"Jooeun, you are always welcome to come back to the US."
Jooeun maintain her smile. When she came across smaller groups of people, she would generously give them an autograph. After entering the terminal, she took multiple photos with fans. Eventually, Hyewon had to intercept and regretfully turn them away by telling them Jooeun hadn't had much rest lately because of work, hopefully, they could understand.
While sitting in the terminal, Jooeun glanced around for Jeonghwan. Finally, in the middle of the seating area, she spotted Jeonghwan sitting peacefully with sunglasses on as he flipped through the latest issue of Vanity Fair. The old American lady next to him noticed the magazine in his hands and smiled as she asked, "Young man, after you're finished with that, may I take a look? This magazine has been so popular lately, I haven't been able to buy it anywhere."
Jeonghwan nodded gently. "Of course."
Jooeun sat two rows behind Jeonghwan and stared at his handsome back. She really wanted to ask him how he felt holding onto his wife's magazine. In reality, Jeonghwan had the choice to sit in the VIP lounge and wait, but in order to accompany her. . .
Jooeun's eyes welled up as she pulled out her phone and typed a few words. "Your back looks good."
Jeonghwan handed the magazine in his hands to the old lady and took a look at his phone. The corners of his mouth curved up as he replied, "After we return home, get Taejoo to change the person holding your hand in the front cover to me. There won't be zero mentions anymore, right?"
"You can't do that President Lee! If you do that, then no one will notice me anymore."
The smile on Jeonghwan's mouth increased as a thought crossed his mind. He wanted to enlarge Jooeun's solo photo in the magazine and hang it all over their bedroom.
"I really want to turn around and look at you."
Seeing those words, Jooeun's heart ached. At this time, the airport announced their flight is ready for boarding. Jooeun stood up and walked to the front. Following closely behind, Jeonghwan also got up and walked behind her. Like this, he wouldn't need to turn around to look at her.
During the boarding process, many people gradually recognized Jooeun. They wanted to move forward to talk to her, but not knowing if Jeonghwan is doing it on purpose, he kept standing in front of them until Jooeun finally headed into the first class cabin.
She's his wife! Of course, he would take care of her and protect her. At least within his sight, he had to do that.
At the same time, a very entertaining photo started spreading through the Korean online community. The B-grade model Park Shinhye, who gloriously went overseas, meant overcoming all obstacles and rising to a new level in her career. After all, after going overseas, she compared herself to many famous supermodels, used the fact that she's an Asian model as a gimmick and secured a few endorsements. However, as soon as Vanity Fair's magazine was released, Jooeun became a legend, whereas she became a joke.
'Zero Attention' became her nickname. But all the ridicule from the public wasn't enough. Early in the morning, an extremely long meme is posted up online. The meme consisted of 10 photos of models she had previously been compared to. The models' photos were on the left, her photos were on the right. Their photos were from all different shows, whereas her photos consisted of the same photo, the photo of her kneeling on the ground.
After this meme went viral, it grabbed the attention of many famous online personalities and they all began to ridicule her. This devastating result would have never been predicted by CN. Also, because of Shinhye's defeat, all her previous scandals started resurfacing, humiliating her once again. This is how the entertainment industry is like, the winner takes all.
"Shinhye, how about you stay in the US?" Yonghwa is worried she wouldn't be able to handle the blow and it would hurt her pregnancy.
"No need. I want to see how Jooeun plans to step on me." Most importantly, the final selection for the Top Ten Model Awards is in 4 days. She wanted to make a gamble. Since she didn't get good results, all she could do now is look for the judges.
"Fine then, we will go home as soon as we get off the plane." Yonghwa responded. He had no idea at this moment what Shinhye is planning.
However, even if they were to head straight home, they still had to leave the airport. At this time, paparazzi were lurking. They had their eyes set on them for a long time. Their cars surrounded them and started chasing them. After seeing the humiliation online, Shinhye finally started crying in the car.
She had failed too miserably and fallen too painfully!
