Jung-hwa was stunned hearing the man who trashed their entire drama in a matter of minutes. Everyone, including the class leaders Roh Ji and Hyeong Myung, were cruelly ripped apart, and she was sweating from the pressure he gave out for the last few minutes. So the last thing she expected from him was to call her out for acting the best and receiving praise from a guy like him.

She couldn't react fast enough and seeing her frozen, the Vice-dean smiled and said, "Don't stand there like a statue, come forward. What Mr.Hwan said is not wrong. Your acting was the best one today and you deserve the praise along with the prize money. Introduce yourself to Mr.Hwan." making her finally come back and slowly step forward.

As she did, she glanced at Joon-won and saw his smile. She felt he should get the prize money, as his acting was on a completely different level and hers wouldn't have been that good if it weren't for his help.

Joon-won already guessed it would be her. No matter how good he acted, it was only for 2 scenes. He didn't even get 10 minutes to be on stage. So, it would be irresponsible on their part to give it to him. But after him the next best actor was Jung-hwa, and she was there from start to finish having a big role. So she was worthy of getting compliments from them.

He noticed her glancing towards him with slight hesitation and knew what she was thinking about. He shook his head and gestured for her to look forward. She turned her head around and looked at the judges. The Vice-dean had the same smile, their teacher's face didn't look the best, but he had a fake smile and Mr.Hwan had the same deadpan face since the beginning.

"My name is Cheo Jung-hwa," she told her name and didn't know what to say next.

Do Hwan looked at the nervous girl in front of them and said, "That's a good name you got there Miss.Cheo. As I said before, you are one of the two reasons I didn't walk out of the hideous drama today. Your acting was on point from the start to the end even though you stammered a little at the beginning it's given for any new actors."

"As a producer, I can see myself hiring you for a role in a movie if you can continue to improve. Even though you do not have the best looks, your acting was good enough to cover for it. So do not think about anything else and just continue to improve."

Jung-hwa once again became a statue from his comments on her acting. She nodded and thanked him while bowing a little. "Thank you for your advice. I will remember and continue to get better."

"Now, even though you are one of the reasons I didn't get up and your acting was better than most of the people, there is one more person in this drama who acted even better. But he can't get this prize because his role was just too small," he said, making everyone taken back.

Everyone heard his words and were stunned. After all, they heard him praise Jung-hwa in front of them as the best actor on stage, but then he changed his words and said there was someone better who had a smaller role.

"The only reason you are getting this prize instead of him is that your acting was consistent for a long period while he only had a small role and his amazing acting did not shine brightly because of that. You acting for a long time was the reason I decided to stay while his acting gave me satisfaction."

Jung-hwa nodded, hearing him. She knew about whom the man was talking about. It was only Joon-won who was on another level compared to everyone in the drama. While she heard him, she also decided to give the prize money she relieved to him because it should be his in the beginning.

Joon-won noticed Do Hwan glancing at him and then Hea-Jung, also having a sly grin. He didn't want to get called out in front of everyone. So he looked at Hea-Jung in the eye while raising an eyebrow and he shook his head. He knew she could tell the producer to not call him out. It would only bring problems, and he didn't want to be well known.

Hea-Jung noticed him shaking his head and decided to comply to his request this time. She could see him getting irritated if she didn't agree. So, she quickly got up and walked towards the Judging table before whispering something to Do Hwan's ear. Do Hwan raised an eyebrow but nodded.

"Well, that's the end of my review for the drama. If you want everything, I just said in one sentence, 'Never make a drama or act like this again, if you do not want your viewers to start throwing stuff at your faces.' because I can see that happening." Abruptly ending his review. As Hea-Jung asked him to not call Joon-won out for a good performance, he didn't have anything to say.

The Vice-dean didn't take his abrupt ending to heart and said, "Well that is the end of the review part of your exam. You will get your results in the next 2-3 hours so you can view the notice board outside your classroom for that. Cheo Jung-hwa, you can come and get your prize money right now." Ending their exam and dismissing them completely.

Jung-hwa nodded and went towards the Vice-dean to receive a check of 50,000 Kros which is a lot for a university student. She thanked the Dean for the opportunity he gave her. If it wasn't for him giving her a better role she wouldn't have gotten this money.

After getting the check, she went backstage and saw the gloomy atmosphere. She walked up to Joon-won and both of them slowly walked out from there.
