"G...GK's...C...E...O?" the representative from Damiani was stunned as he pointed at Jeonghwan and stuttered. "How is this possible?"
Director Shin also saw the scene in front of him and was in a moment of disbelief. Cha Jooeun had actually managed to invite GK's CEO, Lee Jeonghwan, a man capable of determining an artist's life and death. A man that had total control over the entertainment industry's resources. The high and mighty, mysterious CEO, Lee Jeonghwan!
Dear God! Nothing was more pleasantly surprising yet terrifying at the same time!
"Pr...President Lee, how are you?" the representative immediately bowed respectfully at Jeonghwan. Even Director Shin had to show a bit of modesty around him.
"No need to be polite." Jeonghwan said coolly as he adjusted his suit jacket.
"So...you..." Damiani's representative couldn't believe that Cha Jooeun had managed to bring Lee Jeonghwan here, so he had to reconfirm.
This was Lee Jeonghwan!
"I heard that Jooeun needed help, so I specifically made some time to come here. Will it take long?" Jeonghwan asked calmly without clarifying his relationship with Jooeun. The way he spoke merely suggested that he was well acquainted with her.
"It won't take too long, not at all. Who would've thought that President Lee is willing to make a guest appearance for a friend." the representative responded excitedly.
"Only for Jooeun." Jeonghwan had a piercing gaze as he gave a simple reply.
The representative was stunned. He never expected Lee Jeonghwan to be so straightforward. His imagination started going wild, thinking of all the possibilities, but then a brief sentence from Lee Jeonghwan set him straight.
"She is a rare talent, I couldn't think of a reason to reject her." He declared, not allowing anyone to think otherwise.
The representative and Director Shin nodded knowingly. So it was because Lee Jeonghwan appreciated talent.
Because Lee Jeonghwan and Cha Jooeun both kept low profiles and were both cold and mysterious to outsiders, the fact that Lee Jeonghwan was helping Cha Jooeun did not raise any suspicion. Even when trying to make a connection between them, all that could be felt between the couple was an innocent friendship based on mutual respect. Nevertheless, this innocent friendship was extremely special.
Even GK's artists were rarely important enough to catch a glimpse of Lee Jeonghwan. Yet, with one phone call, Cha Jooeun managed to get him to put down all his work and rush over to lend a helping hand!
"Also, I hope that me being here on set will become an eternal secret."
"Of course! No problems President Lee!" the representative immediately did an 'OK' gesture as he rushed around to get a confidentiality agreement signed. They couldn't afford to offend Lee Jeonghwan.
Lee Jeonghwan didn't say anything. He simply lifted his head and gazed into the distance at Jooeun. Their eyes met for a good few seconds...
Damiani's representative originally wanted to ask Lee Jeonghwan if he was aware of what was required for the shoot. But just the thought of Lee Jeonghwan being here to help, even if he was to randomly act, they wouldn't have any objections. So the representative turned to Director Shin and asked, "So...can we get started?"
"Of course, but does President Lee know..."
"Let's just get started." Jeonghwan didn't want to waste any more time. He knew as well as Jooeun what today's shoot consisted of. The shoot would be made up of 3 parts: proposal, wedding, and post-marriage.
"Please..."
Director Shin did a welcoming gesture. He originally wanted to ask whether Jeonghwan needed to do a test run, but because the man in front of him was Lee Jeonghwan, he did not have the courage to question him.
He could only let them film first and see how things turned out.
"Director Shin, pinch me! I want to see if I'm dreaming. It's Lee Jeonghwan! The CEO of GK has actually come to take part in our commercial. How great would it be if we used this for publicity?"
Director Shin turned to look at the representative. He also felt extremely honored. After all, how many people had ever filmed a commercial with Lee Jeonghwan? Up to this point, he was to be the only one!
This was the Lee Jeonghwan that could turn the entertainment industry upside down by simply moving a foot! That Nam Joohyuk – swapping him was so worth it! In this world, there were hundreds of Nam Joohyuks, but Lee Jeonghwan – there was only one!
"Not to mention you, even I am feeling like I am currently on cloud 9. Look at the others, they are so surprised their jaws are about to drop off. This goes to show, Cha Jooeun can't be underestimated." After speaking, Director Shin turned to the two people standing in front of the camera. "Jooeun-ssi, you and President Lee can warm up to each other first. We will start shooting after a 10-minute break."
Jooeun looked at Jeonghwan, at the man dressed in a black suit, collars neatly ironed with a tall and built figure. This exceptionally handsome man was steadily walking towards her as her heart melted into a mess. Even though the scene in front of her was fake and the script was fake, as long as the person was real, that's all that mattered.
"President Lee, I really wasn't confident you'd agree..."
Jeonghwan watched as Jooeun's dress and hair fluttered in the wind. He approached her and gently swept her hair behind her ear. "Others wouldn't be able to invite me, only you. You are my weakness."
"Didn't you say you'd propose to me and allow me to experience the romance I deserve? I want you to film this commercial with me."
"Do I have to do as you say??"
Jooeun's lips curved upwards. Backed by the beautiful scenery, she revealed a slight smile.
Jeonghwan could no longer resist the urge to touch her, so he immediately turned to the director and said with a serious expression. "No need to wait 10 minutes. Let's get started, I have a meeting later."
"Okay, let's start then..." Director Shin quickly nodded as he prepared.
The scene started off with Jooeun standing barefoot on the beach looking into the distance. Afterward, she paced back and forth for a little while before standing still and holding onto her dress as tears started to well up. At this time, a tall figure suddenly appeared behind her as he carefully lifted her right hand and placed an engagement ring on her finger. As the lines came out of his mouth, it was impossible not to stir up emotions. Jeonghwan's voice was deep and charming.
At this moment, the camera zoomed in on Jooeun's face. Her expression was surprised and slightly upset, like the man in front of her was really the man she deeply loved. The director looked at the natural actions of the two and was completely taken aback, especially when Jooeun released tears of joy. He never imagined they would complete this part of the shoot so quickly. They practically passed in one go. The scene flowed smoothly without any flaws.
Afterward, Jooeun flew into Jeonghwan's embrace, placing her ring-wearing right hand on his shoulder. The scene was harmonious and beautiful. Jooeun and Jeonghwan were completely in sync and filled with emotions, like a couple that had been together for many years. The way they acted in front of the other was so natural.
"Are they really not a couple?" Damiani's representative couldn't help but mumble. "Director, look at Jooeun's sweet and lovely aura paired with President Lee's adoring expression. If they aren't a real couple, then they must be born actors. Which do you think is more likely?"
