Rebirth: King To Superstar Chapter 72
Advertisement
Joon-won was now outside the room waiting for someone to come pick him up and show him around the place. The meeting with San Min was done and everything was set for the next 2 months. He took out his phone and sent a text to Hea-Jung asking about the recording. As soon as he sent the message, he got a reply from her. As always, she completely ignored his text and asked about how the drama house was and if he needed her to be there.
He immediately denied her help and asked for the recording again. She agreed and sent the recording. He clicked on the video and saw him standing on the stage. It was only a 30 mins video and he decided to watch it later when he went back home. The timings of the drama house was only until 6 in the evening but San Min told him that the drama house would be open till 10 because people were practicing and doing other stuff.
Hearing the door open he pocketed the phone and noticed it was the same guy who picked him up earlier. The guy waved his hand and Joon-won walked up to him.
"The boss asked me to show you the place, shall we get going?" And Joon-won nodded.
The guy turned around and they were back into the busy corridor. The guy immediately started pointing at rooms and mentioning what their purpose was. There were a total of 5 rooms on both sides of the corridor. The first three rooms on the left were there for people to practice. All three of the doors were closed and Joon-won could hear people practicing lines from the other side.
The other two rooms on the left were for changing and rest. One room for each gender. Both the rooms looked spacious when he peeked in with people either sleeping or using their phones.
Then were the rooms on the right. The 2 rooms near the huge door they came out of were used for making props and costumes. The rooms were filled with various equipment like sewing machines and wood. He saw some people working on props for the performance and making clothes. He felt nostalgic seeing this and thought about the days he had to do these kinds of tasks for their performance.

They filled the room next to those with computers and machines used during the performance. This was like the control center, where they could see the stage from different angles and turn on the spotlight with music at the correct times.
The last room had two doors and was actually backstage. It was big and had a huge mirror to check on the dress and make-up before they got up on stage. After checking that, the guy told that most of the crops were kept behind the building in a huge warehouse they managed.
He then took him to the front where it was the main entrance for the audience and entered. Joon-won was surprised to see the stage and how the theatre looked. The theatre was massive and had a huge stage at the front. He looked back and saw stages above and looked like they had to climb stairs outside to get in those seats.
After coming out of the theatre he turned towards Joon-won and said, "Well, that's the tour of the entire drama house. So what did the boss ask you to do after this?"
"She asked me to help out any way I can. So you got any work which needs an extra pair of hands?" He asked back. He didn't know anyone in this place, even the guy in front of him did not introduce himself yet.
The guy thought for a second and replied, "Well I heard the people in the costume room were short in hands. Do you know how to use a sewing machine and make costumes?"
Joon-won didn't know how to use the sewing machine but he knew how to sew. So he replied, "I don't know how to use a sewing machine, but I do know how to sew using a regular thread and needle. I have some experience in making costumes."
"Well, I guess that would be good enough. I'm sure they have needles and thread. Let's go, I'll introduce you to the person in charge there." He waved his hands and asked him to flow once again.
They reached the costume room and got in. Joon-won immediately noticed 4 people rigorously working on costumes. No one turned to check who it was that walked in and the guy said, "Pak Shin, I heard you could use a few hands. Here is the new guy. The boss told him to help around till next week's auditions and he said he knows how to make costumes using needle and thread."

As soon as he called out everyone turned towards the door and looked at him. There were 2 men and 2 women in the room. The one who responded was a man who sat in front of a sewing machine to the far left of the room with various pieces of cloth next to him.
"You know how to sew?" He directly asked Joon-won. Joon-won nodded, and the guy pointed at one of the drawers to his left side and said, "There should be needles and thread in the first drawer. Take them and come here."
As soon as he gave orders, he turned back and continued to work. The others followed him and the guy who showed him around patted his shoulders before turning around and walking out of the room. Joon-won looked at the room once again and noticed a huge table spanning across the entire right wall with various dresses on it. The left side of the room had the tables the people worked on and right across from him were enormous wardrobes which contained various supplies needed to make costumes.
Joon-won shrugged at how messy the room looked with various pieces of clothes on the ground and knew whoever cleaned the place up were legends.
Joon-won looked to the left and saw a smaller version of the table on the right side. He walked in front of the table and opened the first drawer to see various stuff like glue, threads, scissors, needles, etc. He picked up a needle and white thread before going towards Pak Shin to the left corner.
As soon as he walked near Pak Shin turned around and said, "How much experience do you have with needle and thread? Have you ever made clothes before?"
Joon-won nodded and replied, "I'm quite good and quick with a needle and thread. I have made quite a few clothes back at home during high school and middle school."
Pak Shin nodded before pointing at the large table at the right side of the room and said, "See the clothes there, many of the shirts do not have pockets still stitched on to them. The pockets are cut and placed neatly on the places they need to be stitched so just take a thread from the same drawer you got these from and get to work. After stitching one pocket, bring it to me so I can check it once." He turned around after giving orders and continued to work.
Joon-won nodded and made his way to the massive table. As he stood in front of it he checked all the various clothes and saw most of them had an ancient Rome theme. He picked a shirt that was white and saw that the pocket was on the left side of the chest.
Joon-won looked around and saw an empty desk beside one of the workers in the other corner from where Pak Shin sat. He took a seat and got to work.
He quickly stitched the pocket up neatly within a minute. This was a very simple task for a person who used to make clothes from scratch because their drama group was too poor to buy a complete set of clothes or have them made by experts.
After completing it, he went to Pak Shin and showed him the shirt. Pak Shin was a bit surprised by how quickly Joon-won completed and grabbed the shirt to see if there were any errors. It was almost like he was hoping to find an error.
After looking at the pocket carefully, he nodded and handed the shirt back to Joon-won before pointing at the huge wardrobe.
"Place the shirt over there and continue to pick more clothes to stitch up pockets and stuff. After you are done, place them all in the wardrobe."
Joon-won nodded and placed the dress in the wardrobe before picking a couple of dresses that had pockets or collars that needed to be stitched on. He placed them on his workbench and walked to the smaller table and took out a few threads which match the clothes he took before getting to work. The room went silent with only the machine sound
