Rebirth: King To Superstar Chapter 12
Advertisement
Looking at the dazzling group in front of the west gate, Joon-won couldn't help but sigh and shake his head. It was a typical famous person and the surrounding mob. He could see Mo yang reaching the group and trying to interact with a flattering expression on his face, making it a bit disgusting.
But he didn't show any of it on his face because he thought little about it. He has been on both sides in such a situation. When he was an orphan and needed roles in dramas around the cities in the kingdom, he flattered many people. He had the exact opposite situation when he was announced to be the bridegroom of the only princess of the kingdom, making him the next king.
So he knew why people would try to flatter others, especially people who were of lower status and needed some kind of help from them. Getting flattered was a nice feeling, too. Even though he enjoyed it he didn't think much about it in his previous life after a few months as he got used to it and was trained to ignore such comments by the previous king.
As he went through his memories, he found out who the center of the group was. It was the handsome guy with blonde hair walking in front of the group with a girl pushing herself onto him. His name was Hyeong Myung. He was in the same class as him but was on a different level when it came to social hierarchy.
He also knew from his memories that the old Joon-won used to flatter him a few times in the past whenever he accompanied Mo Yang to parties of that group. The old Joon-won was a typical sheep-brained man, where he would always follow the crowd and had no thoughts of his own.

The main reason this Hyeong Myung was famous apart from his nice looks was that he had a few connections in the Star Batch. He knew a few people, or so he claimed to the others in the class, making many people want to become friends with him so that they can get to know the Star Batch people too.
Every person in the Star Batch was either influential or very rich, making many people in the normal batch want to become friends with them. This made him instantly famous after the people noticed him around a few of the Star Batch members.
Thinking of all this, Joon-won could only continue to eat the burger in front of him. After having a nice lunch, he stood up, full from the burger, and made his way out after paying at the counter with the money Mo Yang left. He noticed there were a few more minutes before he needed to be at the class and decided to take a walk on the campus.
They left the remaining day after lunch for the drama practice. But most people would not take it seriously and hang outside instead. He slowly went around the campus and saw various groups from other departments going out and coming into the campus. The environment felt good and was very nice.
But the walk couldn't last forever as his break was almost over and he got back to the class to see the entire group he saw earlier near the west gate in the class making noise while chatting around. He couldn't care less about the bunch and just went around them to his seat. He noticed Mo yang was still near the group trying to mingle into it and sighed.
As he sat and looked at the group, he now had a better look at Hyeong Myung, who was in the middle of the entire group with a smile that couldn't look any more fake. He continued to look around the group until his eyes fell on the girl who was the closest to Hyeong Myung, throwing her body all over him with thick make-up on her face, making her look more ugly than the original intention.

She always laughed out loud for everything Hyeong Myung was talking about while getting closer and closer to his body as her hands were slowly moving around him. Joon-won didn't watch this woman because he felt attracted to her or felt disgusted by her actions, it was because he knew who it was based on the memories and thought to talk with her yesterday after he looked at the script.
Her name was Roh Ji, and she was the director and also the person who gave everyone the roles in the class. She also was the person who changed the whole script, making it absolutely trash compared to the original script given by the scriptwriters in the class because she wanted to give more attention to few roles more than others.
This made the script completely trash. Yesterday he had thoughts of going up to the director or the writer and ask if there could be changes, try to speak it out if it was a knowledgeable person but seeing Roh Ji, he threw that idea completely out of the window.
'Roh Ji, it means wisdom and intelligence, this girl is the complete opposite to it. She looks like a complete idiot. I don't know what her parents were thinking when they gave her the name, but this girl went completely against it.'
'I guess I just need to grit my teeth through this drama with such a bad script. Why does the first time I act after so many years have to be in such a bad drama and role.' lamenting on his bad luck.
As he continued to think about it, he suddenly felt a sharp pain on his back and he could already tell who it was without even turning back.
