Chapter 5

A darkish studio with all of the lights off.

Inside, Minhan Kim was wanting on the laptop computer display together with his clean eyes.

On the display, an outdated physician with grey hair is seen.

“Howdy Physician. Are you able to hear me nicely?”

He spoke into the laptop computer, and the physician on the display responded.

[Yes, Mr. Minhan. how have you been doing?]

“It was as ordinary.”

[As usual… . thank god. Because it hasn’t gotten any worse.]

“Sure.”

Minhan Kim has been receiving psychiatric counseling via video conferences for a number of years.

A very long time in the past, he wished to alleviate himself of the guilt that his youthful brother had died due to him.

[It just so happens that the consultation date coincides with the anniversary of my younger brother’s death. Is there anything you would like to tell me about anything special that is different from usual?]

“Nothing specifically.”

[Okay. Is what you are doing okay? Are you sure you don’t work too hard every day, except when you’re giving online consultations?]

“It’s enterprise as ordinary.”

[As usual, you are overdoing it.]

“···.”

[I’ll say it again, it’s really dangerous. It is inevitable to blame yourself out of guilt toward your younger brother, but punishing yourself through ‘work’ is really dangerous.]

“… .”

[No matter how talented a doctor Minhan is, if he works without resting, he will inevitably make mistakes. Then Minhan will come to hate himself so much that he can’t turn back. Should I contact Hanhyang University Hospital? Doctor Minhan Kim, are you saying you still wanna perform the surgery?]

Kim Minhan smiled bitterly on the consulting physician’s reprimand.

‘I do know very nicely what you might be saying. However I can’t assist it.’

Even when everybody on the planet says it isn’t his fault, Kim Minhan has already condemned himself as ‘a legal who killed his youthful brother.’ That’s why Kim Minhan couldn’t dwell with out punishing himself.

So he went into the working room on daily basis and not using a break. That was my punishment.

‘Until I die and meet my brother and express regret… There is no such thing as a forgiveness for me.’

The lengthy session ended like that.

[Then let’s end it for today. And Mr. Minhan, please make sure not to over work in the operating room. I will call Hanhyang University Hospital to check.]

“All proper. “Then I’ll simply go away.”

[Yes. I will send you the schedule for the next consultation by email.]

Minhan Kim turned off his laptop computer. As the intense laptop computer mild disappeared, the moonlight coming via the window illuminated the room significantly brightly immediately.

Kim Minhan fell into whereas wanting on the moonlight.

‘Do I want extra counseling? ‘It wouldn’t be of any use anyway.’

“Whoa…”

Minhan Kim sighed and leaned again deeply on his couch. Then he regarded on the ceiling and remembered the day his brother died.

‘It was precisely 30 years in the past immediately.’

His youthful brother died due to him. It’s as a result of his youthful brother foolishly gave up the kidney to him.

‘Due to that illness… shit.’

These days, I might survive with medicine and dialysis and watch for a transplant, however at the moment, I used to be in a scenario the place I’d die if I didn’t get a transplant instantly.

My brother and myself.

‘If solely I had died then…’

I’ve considered this numerous instances. However that wasn’t potential. As a result of I felt sorry for my lifeless brother due to me.

So Kim Minhan lived like loopy.

He studied to loss of life whereas caring for his mom who misplaced her husband and his son. Consequently, he was accepted to medical faculty and have become a surgeon.

A physician who focuses on organ transplantation, one thing everybody avoids and finds troublesome.

Somebody mentioned that Kim Minhan’s grades and efforts weren’t value it, and really useful a area the place it’s simple and handy to earn money.

However Kim Minhan couldn’t try this.

As a result of he felt too sorry for his youthful brother who needs to be alive and lived comfortably and fortunately.

‘Shit···.’

He took the time off immediately as a result of it was his youthful brother’s loss of life anniversary.

I attempted to someway smile and keep cheerful immediately, however I couldn’t.

Finally, he began ingesting alone within the morning, and his room turned filled with empty liquor bottles and cigarette butts. If he drank this a lot, he might get drunk, however Kim Minhan stored his cool, maybe as a result of it was the anniversary of his youthful brother’s loss of life.

Squeak…

“Have we run out?”

I don’t smoke or drink alcohol in any respect. So the alcohol I purchased this morning was all I had at residence.

‘That is my final bottle. ‘I’ll need to get some from the comfort retailer.’

Kim Minhan placed on his garments and got here out.

[It is on the 1st floor.]

‘It’s Minsu’s loss of life anniversary. Ought to I purchase some ice cream? ‘With the style that Minsu appreciated.’

Kim Minhan, who considered his youthful brother for a second, got here out of the frequent entrance.

“Brother!”

“···?”

At the moment, somebody known as ‘brother’ from behind.

However there was nobody round him besides himself.

‘It’s a well-recognized voice… no,I’m simply listening to issues…?’

Usually, I’d have simply continued on my means. As a result of there was nobody on this world worthy of calling me ‘brother’.

However possibly it’s as a result of immediately is his youthful brother’s loss of life anniversary. For some motive, the phrase ‘brother’ caught in Kim Minhan’s ears. Kim Minhan’s coronary heart and thoughts, which had not wavered even after ingesting plenty of alcohol, responded.

The voice he known as ‘brother’ resembled the voice of his youthful brother in his recollections. Though it was undoubtedly a special voice.

Minhan Kim slowly regarded again.

It’s unlikely, but it surely’s potential that miraculously, I’ve a youthful sibling.

‘It’s okay to be loopy. If solely I might see Minsu even simply as soon as.’

***

I obtained the half, however I nonetheless needed to work part-time. So immediately, like yesterday, I used to be carrying heavy masses.

“Hey~ Prime star!!”

The work foreman known as me in a sly voice. Yesterday, I used to be requested concerning the outcomes of the audition and the end result was, ‘The PD gave me a particularly favorable evaluate.’

‘I assume I’ll simply say It that means quite than not saying something…’

Nonetheless, I wished to share my pleasure with those that every saved 1 million received. So for now I used to be simply enthusiastic about doing it.

“Sure, captain.”

“They mentioned they’re going to vacate Sector A immediately, so I feel I want to organize prematurely. “Let’s go after lunch.”

“All proper.”

After cleansing up, I got here to eat.

The restaurant is a Baekban restaurant that I’ve all the time beloved. It was a spot the place many workplace staff got here, so there have been plenty of clients.

“Mr. Kim, what are you going to eat?”

“Um, half a dozen.”

“No, since it’s a Baekban restaurant, it have to be Baekban. “However what sort of white spot is that this?”

“Um, what I ate yesterday.”

“No, what’s that?”

It wasn’t a small restaurant, but it surely was noisy as a result of there have been so many shoppers. The shoppers on the different tables glanced at me, amazed that I used to be sitting among the many males.

It was then.

Wooooow.

“??”

My cellphone rang. It’s not frequent for my cellphone to ring as a result of I’ve nobody to contact.

Is that this a name from the audition?

A thought instantly occurred to me.

And after I checked-.

[<Dream of the Sun Rising> Audition Manager]

“···!”

It was actually that telephone name.

His coronary heart began pounding arduous.

“Whoa…”

He took a deep breath and thoroughly answered the telephone.

“Howdy?”

[hi···. Jinseok… fit···?]

The environment had been so noisy that I couldn’t hear what was being mentioned. Nonetheless, it was too burdensome to ask him to say it once more.

The foreman, who was arguing with Mr. Kim subsequent to me, requested if I used to be bothered by the truth that I answered the telephone in a stressed method.

“What? “Are you certain the youngest is getting a name from the audition?”

Once I nodded barely, the person obtained up from his seat.

Clap clap!

“Okay, everybody be quiet for a second! “Please be kwayat!!”

The work foreman’s deep voice echoed all through the restaurant.

Different clients responded by asking ‘What’s it?’ and ‘Why must you shout like that?’, however the man didn’t care in any respect.

“Oh my, sorry whereas I’m consuming! “My youngest made a vital telephone name…”

Among the company ignored the person’s phrases and continued to speak noisily, however they quickly turned quiet because of the fierce appears to be like within the different males’s eyes.

Because of this, I began listening to calls higher.

[Are you Jinseok Kang? Are you having a hard time making a phone call?]

“Oh, no! “It was a bit noisy for a second.”

[Ah yes. It was none other than a call to say that you passed the audition for the role of ‘Minho.’]

Daebak…!

“Sure Sure!”

[We need to adjust your schedule for filming, but since you don’t seem to have an agency, we will contact you directly.]

“Properly, what? “What occurred?”

“Did you bought it?”

I nodded barely and mentioned.

“···Sure.”

After listening to PD Kim Mansoo’s phrases on set, I had a powerful perception that I’d succeed.

However receiving affirmation like this in individual was a special feeling.

The fellows slapped me on the again. It harm just a little, but it surely felt so good that it didn’t actually matter.

“Okay! What did I say! “Didn’t I say you’d be a prime star sometime?!”

“Hey! Kang Jinseok! Order no matter you need immediately! Do you wish to eat beef?!”

“Okay, okay! “The fellows are taking pictures immediately!”

“No! “It’s not the ‘outdated males’, it’s the foreman president who shoots!”

“Shall I shoot you?! “Why are you fucking with my cash?”

Now, individuals telling me that I’ll turn into a ‘prime star’ despite the fact that I solely obtained one small function. He appeared happier than me.

At the moment, a textual content message arrived.
