Rebirth: King to Superstar

It didn't take him long to stand before the classroom door. He could hear various noises from the other side. It looked like some of the people were still not taking the exam as seriously as they should. He opened the door slowly and looked around to see all the students in different groups wasting away some resourceful time.

Of course, he could also find a few serious students reading their scripts. He noticed the famous group once again chatting away. He stood there and looked around, trying to find Jung-hwa, but didn't find her.

He quickly closed the door, whipped out the phone, and sent her a text message. The reply came in an instant as she asked him to come to the same room for practice. Sending her a quick ok, he walked towards the room and knocked on it when he was there.

"Come in." He heard Jung-hwa from the other side. Opening the door, he noticed Jung-hwa sitting on the chair eating her lunch.

"Don't bother greeting, just continue and finish that." He quickly pointed out her food. She nodded and quickly got to work. He always had a few important life rules he believed very deep in.

Even though it sounded silly to others to have this, as a rule, he believed in having a nice and quiet meal, undisturbed. It was his way of showing respect to food, which was scarce when he was young. That was also why he asked her to continue.

He took out the script and glanced through it once again until she completed her lunch. Placing the script on his lap, he saw her gulping down a bottle of water. Keeping the bottle aside, he looked at him.

"Well, now that it's done. What part do you want to practice?" he asked.

"Before going back to practicing my role, let's practice yours. We didn't have any time to practice yesterday too," she said with a grin. She wanted to see him practice his role.

"My role isn't that big. So it's ok to not practice it. We only have this afternoon and evening for you to practice. I'm sure you need to practice a few parts again after yesterday." he shook his head and denied. It was a waste of time and he wanted her to get better at her role.

"No, no. Let's practice your role first. Your role is small anyway, so it won't take up much time. I am sure we won't need to re-practice any part twice with how good you are." she also denied his reasoning and persisted.

Joon-won gave in and shrugged, "Alright if that is what you want. Don't cry at the end of the day that you didn't have enough time."

"It's ok."

"Well then, look over these parts of the drama. My all dialogues aren't even one complete page, so it should be easy for you." He handed his copy of the script, which was only a single page with dialogues in it. His role had more inner monologues than dialogues, which are narrated in the drama.

After 15 minutes, Jung-hwa looked up and nodded. Joon-won stood up to act. The first part of his script was him noticing the hero and heroine as they were having a date. This part didn't have anyone other than him in the scene, and so Jung-hwa observed as Joon-won's expression changed into shock.

"Wait, what are they doing together. Happily talking, holding hands, it's like they are on a date. Why him, he is nothing. Just because he is famous?" the shocked expression changed from shock to jealousy and finally anger. It looked like Joon-won was genuinely angry. Jung-hwa raised her eyebrows at seeing this.

'It really looks like Joon-won is angry and jealous at the relation. There is also that slight craziness in his eyes. How is he doing that?'

"Should I go and strip those two apart? Should I beat that guy up? No, not here and not like this. This is a betrayal. She showed hope and snatched it away. Ah! I can do that instead." Joon-won's eyes grew crazier but became calm by the end. After this dialogue was another monologue on his character.

The Heroine showed some kindness to him and his character mistook her going for him, making him have messed up thoughts and misunderstandings. His expressions darkened after seeing them together and hatch a plan to expel them. Their school had strict policies and heavy punishments. If two students were caught to be dating, then both of them are expelled.

So, to have proof, he took a picture of both of them and walked away. This was one part and the next was not until the end where he complains to the vice-principal in charge of discipline in the school.

This was where Jung-hwa needed to help him. Jung-hwa had a serious expression as she stood in front of him.

"What is it that you need? I don't have much time, so tell me and get lost." as sternly as she could. The vice-principal was portrayed as a demon-like person in the drama.

Joon-won had an extremely fearful expression as he gulped and stuttered out immediately, "I-I caught two students having a date. It looked like they are a couple." He immediately closed his mouth after saying that as the vice principal's expression should darken, which Jung-hwa was trying her best to do.

"Why should I believe you?" making him quickly take out his phone and show the picture of the hero and heroine walking together while holding their hands.

The vice-principal then just nods and dismisses him. After a few days in a general assembly, the vice-principal tells everyone about the hidden relationship and conveys that they are expelled to make an example for everyone.

Both of them aren't seen but later come back to the school as the hero's father buys the school and changes the rules. After the conversation with the vice-principal, Joon-won's character is seen in the whole drama like he never cared about them.

This is what made Joon-won hate the writer. The ending was horrible, without any sense, and there wasn't any follow-up on his character. It was almost like he was forgotten.
