Chapter 8: New Addition

"Ji Hyo, did filming go well? You texted me earlier about the shoes, luckily I packed in extra sneakers." Rachel asked as she turned up the air conditioner in the car.

"Ah Rachel unnie, thank you so much for the shoes. If not really don't know I would have completed the rest of the missions. Today's filming was fun! But it was so tiring...." Ji Hyo yawned. Then someone knocked the window beside her.

Hey isn't that one of Running Man's writers? Why is she here?

Ji Hyo did not expect to be called over to the gathering of the members after filming ended. Neither did Rachel, as she displayed her signature look in an unexpected situation: lifting a single eyebrow. Ji Hyo rolled down the windows and asked the junior what happened. She wondered why she was being called.

Is it because I did a bad job today as a guest? Oh no. I shouldn't have agreed to Myuk PD about guesting on this new show.... Now my stupid self ruined it again!

Ji Hyo looked at her manager at the wheel beside her. She scrunched her face up into the most horrible looking face possible. Rachel tried to resist bursting into laughter, before patting Ji Hyo on her back softly, saying "It's okay. I don't think its bad news." With that, Ji Hyo got out of the vehicle and meekly followed the writer.

As she returned back to the site of filming, she could see that everyone was busy. Cameras were being unattached from places high and low and equipments were being kept. The crew walked around everywhere, busy with their duties. And before she knew it, she was lost. The writer she was following was gone. She looked around urgently, only to discover black, black and more black. She started to panic a little.

Now I cannot even follow someone properly. I'm such a blur person. Now what do I do?

Busy with their own jobs, none of the crew paid any attention to her. It was either Ji Hyo had no star power at all, or they were seasoned workers who were used to the presence of a celebrity. The caps sheltering their faces prevented Ji Hyo from even making eye contact with them. She didn't dare to stop one of them, in fear that they would bark at her for disrupting them. She didn't know how to start anyway, when she could not even catch their eye.

Just as she was combing the area for signs of pink and blue cloth, the Running Man uniform for the day, a man wearing a similar attire with the crew came up to her. "Excuse me, Ji Hyo shii, are you looking for something or someone? Maybe I can help?" he spoke politely.

Ji Hyo could barely hear above all the din and clatter of her surroundings. She looked at the man, a little surprised. He seemed to be part of the production crew, although his cap was in his hand, so she could see his facial features. He looked familiar, somehow, but she couldn't recall where she had met him before.

Just as she wanted to ask for the location of the PDs, Jae Suk got to her first. "Song Ji Hyo sshi! There you are! The PDs wants to discuss something with you, but you disappeared immediately after filming ended and writer Im had a hard time finding you. Let's go! I think they have good news to tell you, judging from their facial expressions." he chattered. Ji Hyo assumed he was still in his 'filming mood', as he had once apologised for during a break from filming Family Outing, because normal Jae Suk wasn't that loud.

It turned out that Ji Hyo wasn't that far from the group of directors and members after all. "Ji Hyo's here!" Haha exclaimed. Ji Hyo couldn't tell if the exclamation was from impatience or excitement. Mentally, she told herself to calm down.

"Annyeonghaseyo. I'm sorry for leaving so early just now after filming. I didn't know you were looking for me..." Ji Hyo trailed off, not knowing what else to add. She gave a slight bow.
