There are two things in the room that are causing you to grow sweaty hands. The unbelievably sleek, black roundtable you and your fellow actors sat around, and the unbelievably attractive woman that sat right next to you. You can barely focus on the script in front of you as you keep glancing between the star, Park Sooyoung, and the reflection of your face with all of its subtle nervousness. You're thankful for your good acting skills, but there's only so much you can hide.

Luckily you're only doing a table-reading right now, so the lackluster amount of effort you're exerting over your lines doesn't seem particularly odd. You struggle to grasp the plot of the script or the context of your lines all because of the bubbling feeling of admiration settling in your stomach.

Park Sooyoung. You don't know much about her, only hearing about her success as an idol and now her building success in the acting industry. You've been beginning to build quite a name for yourself too, so you can't help but to respect the tenacity she must have to be able to juggle an acting career with her idol career. God knows how much free time you have for yourself these days and how hectic life is.

You appreciate the way she holds herself too. She's a confident woman that holds herself in well regard without lessening the value of others. Some people wouldn't get that impression when looking at her, but you do. Years of understanding minute details of body language has come to at least some benefit it seems. Her gaze, although some may find frightening, is entrancing to you, and the way she looks at others makes you believe that she holds no malice. Unfortunately you can't say that for every actor you've come across.

For example, already Sooyoung's co-star, Minjoon, has gotten on your nerves. He's already quite famous himself, so he along with Sooyoung are the biggest attractors in this new drama you're all filming. He has the expected attitude that any extremely handsome man who lives a comfortable and lavish life in fame has. A conceited one.

You recall the day of callbacks as he passed you in the hallway. It was just you and a few other women. Very few people were told to come to the second audition, and seeing as this was the biggest drama you'd have even the slightest chance of being in, you were quite pleased with yourself. Minjoon completely destroyed your mood though as he took it upon himself to stop right in front of you with a look of confusion on his face.

You had thought to yourself that maybe he was just confused with your presence, after all you were surrounded with much more well known actresses than you. What you didn't expect though, was for him to boldly state that aloud.

"What's a no-name like you doing here? Are you lost?"

You could barely hide a wince from his comment when you politely replied.

"Sorry no, I'm here for callbacks to play Haeun." Unlike you, Minjoon certainly didn't hide his expression. You remember how degrading it was, him eying you up and down. Without a second thought, as if his words meant nothing, he spits again.

"I don't think you'll make it. Just go home, don't you think you're too ugly for the role?"

You notice your grip on your script has made the paper crumple a bit. As you loosen your grip though, you realize that you're already on the last page and that Sooyoung was delivering the last lines for the episode. You flip back to the first page and set your script down as the writers called the reading done. Everybody got up to leave the room, most of them going to a longue in the building. Filming would start in a couple days and you figured it would be best to feel more comfortable with the people you'd spend a significant time on set with.
