Chapter 70

Although Kim Soo-yeon had shown her attitude towards Yoon Hyun's whimsical idea through her actions, Yoon Hyun still didn't plan to give up on this tempting idea. He almost immediately sent an email to the famous director across the ocean with an invitation.

However, the time had passed so long that even Spielberg, who had once been momentarily enthusiastic, had already forgotten what he had said.

Fortunately, the inspiration of the time was recalled by Yoon Hyun's reminder, and he provided it to Yoon Hyun for free. The theme was actually quite simple: a fantasy story set in medieval Europe with some Gothic elements. It was mostly about a hero, a demon, and a princess.

But Yoon Hyun adapted this story, turning it into a tale of divine messengers, demonic messengers, and gods. He had originally wanted to use God, angels, and demons directly, but IU timely stopped him. IU knew many Catholic juniors in the entertainment industry and deeply understood that if this story, which was heavily critical of Christianity, were made into an MV, it would have a very bad impact on Yoon Hyun. So the story was set against the backdrop of the Norse gods...

After that, the shooting of Yoon Hyun's first MV was put on the agenda. Yoon Hyun submitted one or two proposals to LOEN. Proposal one: use electronic CG technology to create a fantasy style, blending reality and fiction, to complete this MV with themes of struggle, accusation, and resistance. Or proposal two: build interior sets and shoot with real people.

In the end, the four words "no expense spared" played their role. Proposal one became the final choice. Yoon Hyun's first MV was thus grandly put into production.

Although the shooting only took one day, the main part of the MV was actually on the computer CG. So the entire MV would not be completed until a month later.

Just as Yoon Hyun was racking his brains over the MV concept for "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky," a call from the "We Got Married" production team interrupted his thoughts.

"Yoon Hyun-ssi, I'm sorry to bother you," the PD on the other end of the line said politely.

"Oh, PD-ssi, have you arranged the time and place for the shoot?" Yoon Hyun was straightforward.

"We have already contacted Kim Soo-yeon-ssi, and she knows the time and place," the PD remained polite.

"Oh, is there anything special?"

"It's like this, since you and Haem Eun-jeong-ssi haven't shot for four weeks, the pre-prepared footage has already run out, so we want to arrange a trip, which should allow us to broadcast for some time."

"Is that so? That will require a lot of budget, thank you for your hard work!"

"Then, Yoon Hyun-ssi, are you agreeing?"

"There's nothing to refuse! I've already caused you a lot of trouble with my inappropriate behavior. So you don't need to be polite with me," Yoon Hyun said with a smile.

"There's one more thing, this trip is a three-day, two-night itinerary..."

"Once the time is confirmed with Kim Soo-yeon, it's fine!"

"It's not about the itinerary, the time has already been confirmed, but during the shooting period... I shouldn't be the one to remind you, but please pay attention to the timing..."

"What do you mean?"

"..."

"Can't say it directly, right?"

"Please understand!"

"Alright, I appreciate your reminder. I'll confirm the specific time with my agent."

"Okay, thank you."

After hanging up, Yoon Hyun immediately called Kim Soo-yeon.

"When is the 'We Got Married' shoot?"

"This week, from the 11th to the 13th. What's up?"

"Is there anything special... Oh... I see, never mind."

Then Yoon Hyun hung up.

"What's with this?" Kim Soo-yeon said, puzzled, holding the phone that had been hung up.

It was Haem Eun-jeong's birthday! Yoon Hyun smiled. The production team had put a lot of effort into this. But indeed, it had been a month since the last recording, and Yoon Hyun hadn't contacted Haem Eun-jeong since then.

Should he communicate with her before the recording?

Yoon Hyun hesitated for a moment and decided to just let it be.

Speaking of which, Haem Eun-jeong's absence from the dormitory for a whole day had scared Yoon Hyun, and he had searched for her for three hours all over Seoul. But in the end, Haem Eun-jeong hadn't given any explanation.

This made Yoon Hyun a bit sad.

But Yoon Hyun couldn't say anything. It was his own fault for speaking inappropriately, causing her to be upset, and then he had been self-indulgent... It felt like he had dug his own grave and jumped into it.

So Yoon Hyun quickly put this sad and embarrassing matter out of his mind.

Since there were still three days before the shoot, he might as well use this time to finish another MV...

Things didn't go as smoothly as he had hoped. The MV concept was only completed just before he set out. To realize his idea, he asked the company to contact CNBlue...

On the morning of the 11th, the "We Got Married" production team appeared downstairs at Yoon Hyun's house.

"So early!" Yoon Hyun greeted the production team.

A task card was handed to Yoon Hyun.

"Is there a task?" Yoon Hyun opened the task card with a questioning look and read it softly: "To Yoon Hyun-ssi: Last week, because of your words, Eun-jeong-ssi was upset. Plan a car trip to comfort her!"

Yoon Hyun nodded, made a gesture to the camera indicating that he would take care of it, and then got into his car.

But he was immediately forced out of the car. Since he had designed the theme of the trip, he naturally had to drive Haem Eun-jeong himself.

The first step of the task was to pick up Haem Eun-jeong.

So, Yoon Hyun came to the T-ara dormitory for the first time.

In front of the in-car camera, Yoon Hyun called Haem Eun-jeong on speakerphone.

"Hello, Eun-jeong!"

"Hey! Brother-in-law!"

"Um... Ji-yeon... Where's Eun-jeong?"

"Eun-jeong-ssi is putting on makeup! Have you arrived?"

"Yes, I'm downstairs."

"Then, Brother-in-law, come up!"

"Um, I'll wait downstairs."

"Brother-in-law! I think you should come up!" Quan Bao-lan's voice suddenly came from the phone.

Yoon Hyun had no choice but to hang up and go upstairs, feeling a bit depressed.

The dormitory door was not closed, and Yoon Hyun pushed it open and walked into the room.

"Brother-in-law, come, sit down," Park Ji-yeon said in a very gentle tone, but her devilish side was almost showing.

"Where's Eun-jeong?" Yoon Hyun noticed that the four people other than Eun-jeong and Park So-yeon were sitting in a row facing him, making him a bit nervous. "We need to leave soon."

"No problem, we have plenty of time," Lee Kyeo-ri interrupted Yoon Hyun's excuse. "Brother-in-law..."

"Kyeo-ri, can you not talk like that?"

"Don't interrupt! I'm your wife's sister! Don't try to get close to me!" It was clear that Lee Kyeo-ri was struggling to hold back her laughter but was still trying hard. "Last time, you really hurt our Eun-jeong!"

"Yes! Eun-jeong-ssi came back and cried all night, hugging me, and I had dark circles the next day," Park Hyo-min added on time.

"So, before Eun-jeong goes out with you this time, there are a few things we need to make clear," Lee Kyeo-ri continued. "First, you must not hurt our Eun-jeong again. If we find out, your marriage is..."

"Over!" the four girls shouted together.

Yoon Hyun was covered in black lines... Every time he looked at Lee Kyeo-ri, he imagined her as Liu Zai-shi...

This scene was too cruel...

"Second, Eun-jeong is not a good sleeper. If she kicks you in your sleep and wakes you up, you must not get angry with her. Otherwise, you'll never get back into her bed!"

"..." Yoon Hyun felt a bit wronged; he had no intention of sleeping in the same bed with Haem Eun-jeong...

"Third, if we find out that you didn't sleep in the same bed, Eun-jeong..." Quan Bao-lan, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up.

"Bao-lan, you should tell Eun-jeong that."

"This is something you need to solve. Why should Bao-lan-ssi tell Eun-jeong-ssi?" The little dinosaur showed its fangs.

"Alright, when we come back, we'll bring the child to visit the sisters-in-law," Yoon Hyun said with a deadpan expression.

"But Eun-jeong is still upset, so if you can't cheer her up, you're really finished," Lee Kyeo-ri added.

"Hey! So-yeon-ssi, stop dawdling, it's almost time!" Haem Eun-jeong's roar came from the inner room.

The entire scene fell silent.

After a great deal of effort, the two of them finally got into the car to leave.

"General." Haem Eun-jeong spoke first.

"Uh-huh." Yoon Hyun, who was driving, responded simply.

"Although what my sisters said might have been a bit offensive, please take it to heart," Haem Eun-jeong said sincerely.

"Eun-jeong, do you know what they said to me?" Yoon Hyun almost lost control of the steering wheel.

"Didn't they tell you not to criticize my singing and acting anymore?"

"They said if I don't sleep in the same bed with you during the trip, they'll bully you. They also said you're not a good sleeper, and if you kick me in my sleep, I mustn't get angry," Yoon Hyun betrayed Quan Bao-lan and Lee Kyeo-ri without hesitation.

"..." Haem Eun-jeong was petrified.

"So you were deceived by your sisters. Poor princess," Yoon Hyun finally got the upper hand.

"What do you think? Are you going to listen to them?" Haem Eun-jeong immediately counterattacked.

"How can I stand by and watch you be bullied? So I'll have to risk being kicked out of bed and squeeze in with you. Sigh." Yoon Hyun pretended to be righteous. "Ouch! Don't hit! I'm driving!"

After some playful banter, the car returned to silence.
