Rebirth: King To Superstar Chapter 89
Advertisement
Joon-won didn't care what the girl thought. He could hear a few stomps from outside and knew Jung-hwa was the cause. But he wanted to have some peace in his house and quickly start reading through the script once again while analyzing the character he liked.
He noticed the time was already 9, and he had only one more hour left before he goes to sleep, he still needed to go to the supermarket for his shift. He couldn't miss 2 days in a row. So he got on the couch with the script and pencil in his hand as he slowly went through the CEO's character deeper than before.
He rounded dialogues everywhere he felt there were hidden or emotions that should be expressed in a specific manner and wrote his thoughts beside it. This was his first role and first drama on a big stage and wanted to do it right. He didn't even consider the minor role he got in the worst story he saw in a long time for the exam.
As he read through the script one more time in a detailed manner, he really got to know more about the character. Things like his background were visible in between his lines with the butler. The CEO was an orphan born with a golden spoon. Brought up very luxurious he didn't face many problems until the death of his parents.
The company his parents started fell into his hands and he had to fend off the greedy hands of everyone else. The only person he treated as someone close to was his butler, who was taken in by his parents and raised him after their death. So apart from being a cruel and meticulous person, Joon-won thought the CEO was before, he was also someone who cared about relations a lot.
This also became the primary reason he started to hate the heroine after finding out what she did. The CEO really cared about this marriage and was treating the heroine perfectly. He never pressured her into marrying him and wanted her to love him for who he was and not for the money. He really liked the girl and would have been ok with the fact she didn't have the same feelings for him if she told him that without cheating on him.

So after getting ruthlessly backstabbed by the person he thought would be with him for the rest of his life, did he turn 'evil' and wanted to destroy their lives. Now his job as an actor was to portray all this he learned through reading the script to the audience. It is easier to understand through the script because he could re-read it, but with a live audience, he doesn't have the time to re-act every scene until the audience understood the deeper meaning in it.
By the time he closed the script, it was 10:10. He kept both of them on the table and made his way towards his room. He still had to go to the drama house after his work at the supermarket to give his name on which role he will be auditioning for. His obvious choice was still the villain, but now he was hesitating to try even the narcissist and idiotic hero. But apart from the hero the rest of the characters were too small or irrelevant.
The next morning, he went for his morning jog, but this time looked around for the gym he found while he was taking a bath. After asking around for a few minutes, he came across the gym. It was a few meters away from the park he normally jogs up to and was a medium-sized establishment with two floors.
The gym was open and Joon-won could hear a few grunts from the inside with the sound of machines running. He stepped in and saw the front desk was empty. After waiting for a few minutes and seeing no one, he knocked on the front desk and shouted.
"Is anyone there? I am here to check the gym out."
As soon as he said that, a bulky, tanned man came out from the door next to the front desk with a smile on his face.
With a smile on his face, he apologized, "I am really sorry. I am the owner of this place and the girl who is supposed to be here took the day off. Now that I am here, tell me what can I do for you." Joon-won felt a bit better after seeing him apologize.
Joon-won nodded and said, "It's alright. I am here to see the gym once and see what plans you guys have. I want to see if I can join."

The guy became enthusiastic and reached out his hand before replying, "Yes, for sure. By the way, my name is Choe Kwan. As I said, I am the owner of this place. Shall I show you the place first before we talk about the plans and prices we offer?" showing the door on the other side of the desk. Joon-won agreed, and Choe Kwan started walking ahead of him to the door.
"This is the door to the gym. The door I just came out of is my office. So if you have any problems you can come and meet me."
Both of them entered the gym and Joon-won could smell the sweat in the air, along with a lot of noise. But he didn't think much of the smell as it is common in places like that and looked around to see a lot of machines he never saw before. Even the original Joon-won didn't know many according to the memories.
"Hey, Dong Kun, go and man the front desk until I show this man the place." Choe Kwan shouted out towards one of the trainers who was looking over a customer. The man Dong Kun nodded and told his customer a few words before walking past them with a smile.
"Alright, this is the men's area of our facility. The floor above is for women and they have women trainers. All the trainers we have here are knowledgeable when it comes to the body and how to properly build it, so you do not have to have to be skeptical about their suggestions on how to do things." Cheo Kwan started it out by telling about the trainers.
"Now if you follow me, you can see that most of our workout machines are top-notch and the latest in the market. We have monthly check-ups and so they are in top shape. Many people are also skeptical about them, but here I promise you do not have to be."
Joon-won kept nodding and continued to observe the entire place as they toured it. The place was huge and filled with various machines. There was also an enormous mirror spanning across the whole wall for people to see themselves. He observed the people, both trainers, and the customers.
He could see that the trainers are really enthusiastic and fit. Some of them are screaming at their customers, trying to encourage them to push harder while others were explaining about the workout calmly. Joon-won also noticed that a few customers were doing nothing. They didn't have sweat on them and were simply taking pictures of themselves in the mirror.
"As you can see, it's not air-conditioned and instead we open the windows for more ventilation. The locker rooms are air-conditioned, to give the customers some relaxation when they change their clothes." He pointed at the door at the front of the room, near the door they entered.
The tour continued and Chor Kwan continued to explain about the area. The tour ended in 10 minutes and both of them came back to the front desk. He sent the other trainer back and looked at Joon-won.
"So, what do you think about the place?"
Joon-won nodded and replied, "It is very good. I want to know more about the cost and the plans you guys provide."
Choe Kwan nodded enthusiastically and said, "Yes, for sure. We first provide a week trial period for any newcomers who are looking to join. So that they could see the service for themselves and figure out if it's worth paying the money."
Joon-won nodded and Choe Kwan continued, "After that, there are two plans the people who want to continue can go for. One is with a trainer and another is without a trainer. A few people know how to handle themselves and come only for the machines and not any guidance. So they do not have to pay more. But if you want a trainer to help you out, then you are going to need to pay extra."
Joon-won didn't hesitate and said, "I am going to need a trainer." he did not want to be ignorant and break a few bones by doing things wrong. So it's better to have someone knowledgeable guide him instead.
