The Third-Gen Chaebol Becomes a Genius Actor

Ch 51

"Is there a reason you can't talk about it?"

"No, it's not that······."

Lee Seon-ja quickly changed the subject.

"Hee-seo's story······ I don't remember it well because it's been so long, but what do you want to know?"

"Just······ how it was when you worked together, things like that."

Yoo Yeon-seo scratched his cheek. Although he had followed along because of his curiosity, he couldn't think of what to ask.

Lee Seon-ja lit the cigarette again and looked at the smoke disappearing into the air.

"You were similar."

"······Me?"

Was it about her personality being dirty?

"When you were in 'Doll' and when you were in 'Dreaming,' it was you."

"······Was there a difference?"

"There was, a lot."

Yoo Yeon-seo furrowed his brow as if he didn't understand.

Looking at him, Lee Seon-ja chuckled softly. Yoo Yeon-seo in 'Doll' was exactly as rumored.

He wielded his capital power on the set. If something didn't suit him, he intervened, and when it wasn't his scene, he stayed in the van, not showing a single strand of hair.

'His acting skills were undeniable······.'

If the other actor couldn't deliver their lines properly, the acting partner would lose energy. When the inexperienced Lee Seon-ja told him to learn how to act, he was blatantly ignored. It must have been the first time Yoo Yeon-seo had treated a veteran actor like that.

But it was different in 'Dreaming.' His attitude towards the work was significantly different. Even though it wasn't his shooting day, he came to understand the flow of the work, and although he had a blunt face with the staff, he maintained courtesy.

Moreover, the atmosphere on the set was friendly because of the excellent contract conditions. If JSENM and investor Yoo Yeon-seo were associated, Yoo Yeon-seo's influence would not have been insignificant.

"She was like a novice but incredibly hardworking. He was stubborn, really stubborn."

"Really?"

"While pretending not to be, she was diligent and adaptable. People who were prejudiced against her because of her appearance ended up liking him."

Yeonseo wondered if his mothers personality warranted resentment from someone, but in any case, the evaluations were good.

"So, maybe... Teacher."

"Yeah?"

"Do you understand why she did that······?"

Lee Seon-ja sighed softly as he tapped the cigarette on the ashtray.

"To be honest, I don't understand, but well······."

Given the thorough security at the mansion of Yoo, the chairman who was known for the best security measures just after the Blue House, the possibility of someone breaking in and murdering his daughter-in-law was close to zero. That's why the incident was quickly concluded as suicide due to depression.

////TL: The Blue House is where the president of South Korea lives. Like the US with the White House. Unlike the US with it's 4 year/2 term limit for a total of 8 possible years, South Korea has a 5 year/2 term limit for a total of 10 possible years. The last part was probably not needed, but the more you know i guess🧍////
