[on-hold]
Not everything you see on screen is what really lies in the actor's story.
Do Kyungsoo, widely known as a reserved member of the group EXO, becomes a cast of the upcoming drama that is to be released on the next year. Bae Minkyong, an ass...

Today was Minkyong's return.
Dressed like the usual, that all black, she came to the set earlier the call time. Before leaving home, she made sure her sister was not left by herself. Thankfully, her sister's old friend volunteered to look after Minyoung as they, too, haven't met each other for a while. So, with ease, Minkyong left for work.
She was welcomed with wide smiles from the crew, each of them greeting the assistant director on her way to the tent where she expected Dejun would be.
As she walked through the narrow side of the set and the tent, she did not miss the chance to remind the staff of their call time that they have to prepare. The actors weren't around yet and so, the ones who were present jogged from one place to another.
"Minkyong-a!" Dejun exclaimed, grinning as soon as he saw Minkyong enter the tent in her usual outfit, paired with sneakers, looking like a fresh graduate.
"I'm so glad you're back," they did a quick hug and the assistant director smiled.
"I'm glad I'm back as well."
Dejun grinned as he nodded, resting his hand on her shoulder.
"How's Minyoung?"
"She's fine. She's with Goeun Unnie and her boyfriend."
"Goeun has a boyfriend now?" He exclaimed, amused at their old friend's current status.
"Yeah! Haven't you heard?" replied Minkyong. "He's a nice guy. Too nice."
"I feel bad for the poor nice guy then. That girl's mouth runs 24/7!"
Minkyong only laughed at his words, taking the script on the table and flipped them over for today's schedule.
"We're kinda going light today huh?" she huffed.
"We already did a few more scenes yesterday so we might have a wrap up early," Dejun replied. "Wouldn't want you shedding too much energy on your first day."
"Oh please, gamdognim. I love my work. I won't mind."
Plastering a smirk, the director left the tent as he made sure everything was already set. Pretty soon, it became noisier outside. As if bees have inhabited the area. Buzzing and roaming.
Minkyong stepped outside to see how things were going when she spotted the actors already standing on the set. Jihyun was the first one to notice her walking towards them and the actress's round eyes widened in delight.
"Gamdognim!"
Running past the two other actors beside her, Jihyun giddily leaped over Minkyong and without any hesitation, engulfed her in a tight hug.
"We missed having you around," she said. "I'm sorry I couldn't come."
"It's okay, Jihyun-a."
A few meters away from them was a man too shocked to even respond. They've been talking through calls and texts for the past days and not a single time did she mention returning today. He felt slightly betrayed. But was too overjoyed to dwell on it.
