“I finally get to see my oppa acting!!! Kyaa!!!”
Thump thump thump! The moment she’d been waiting for forever had arrived. Jin Haesol, who shot to fame right after his entertainment debut with his insane looks. Sure, she wasn’t that upset that a guy with actor-level visuals was doing idol stuff instead. From a fan’s perspective, idols were better anyway—they performed on stage, giving more chances to see him up close.
But even so, fans couldn’t let go of their expectations for Haesol’s acting debut.
They’re just gonna let a face like that waste away without acting? No way!
It was a total waste of talent. And the agency knew it!
“Honey Enter knows how to handle shit!”
Starting with a web drama was a bit of a letdown, but it made sense since our boy had zero acting experience. Better than throwing him into a lead role and risking backlash.
Just showing his face on TV is a blessing—don’t get too greedy!!
She vented her frustration and checked the clock again. She’d done it over a hundred times today. Why was time dragging so much? After glaring at the clock for ages, the moment 6 PM hit, her fingers flew into action with a click.
Tap!
A refresh, and the missing video popped up. She clicked it without hesitation.
“Kyaaaa!!!”
Screaming with anticipation, she clutched her pounding heart as the video loaded.
And then.
Page Not Found.
“Noooo!!!”
The site had crashed.
Of all days, the site hosting our drama’s premiere crashed for a full hour before recovering. Luckily, no videos were lost, so it wasn’t a disaster—but it created an unexpected bonus.
“That’s why the promo team does noise marketing.”
Fans mistook the overload from our web drama’s popularity for the crash, spreading the word everywhere and turning a cute mishap into a frenzy. Reporters jumped in, turning rumor into “fact.” A late clarification revealed it was some other issue, but by then, tons of people had bought the hype.
For us, it was a miracle. Buzz turned into interest and views.
What web drama crashes a site?
Web dramas live or die by promo, so this free noise was gold. Fans flooding in to crash a server built for a million live viewers? Total nonsense.
“They’ve got servers that handle a million live streams. No way a web drama takes it down. People are so random. How do they even buy this?”
But people don’t act logically. They’d figure out the truth later.
“Views exploded thanks to it—perfect for us.”
“We’ll hit 500k tomorrow?”
“Never seen anything like this.”
“Obviously not.”
We’d banked on idol fans’ firepower, but not this much. 300k views in a day warmed the hearts of the sun-baked staff.
“Success… right?”
“Duh! How’s this not a win?”
“Idol power is nuts. Director casting idols was genius.”
“No idols, no chaos.”
The frenzy started with Airplane fans anyway. Reporters—total hacks—fanned the flames with fake stories.
“Next week’s episode 3 views will be key.”
“Drama’s solid. Episode 3 will crush.”
“Promo budget saved. Reporters writing for free.”
Unexpected buzz was catnip for journalists. Free headlines we’d have paid for!
Early headlines were absurd like “Airplane Fans Crash YouTube Server at Web Drama Launch—This Big?” But as time passed, focus shifted to the drama itself, There's a Prince at Our School.
While staff eyed the articles, me and the agency pondered our response. Idols were the hottest topic.
“What do you guys wanna do?”
“Do we really need to address it? It’s just a fluke we benefited from big time.”
“Hm, yeah we milked it. So play it vague?”
“Yeah. Leaning into accidental noise marketing looks sleazy.”
Great for drama promo, but gripping too tight screamed desperate.
“Jun, you?”
“Same as hyung.”
“Got it. You two agree, so SNS pics with ‘Hope you enjoy the web drama!’ it is.”
“Sure.”
“Yep!”
The buzz helped us, but no need to bet the farm on a web drama. Avoid image-damaging moves.
Agency went silent; production sighed but let it slide. It started with our fans anyway.
Ding ding!
The buzz we thought would fizzle reignited unexpectedly. Firewood once lit burned huge.
‘Stumbled on the web drama by chance, and it’s surprisingly good.’
Shoddy production would’ve killed it, but solid quality kept views climbing to over a million in a week. Promising athlete Kang Taeho rode the wave next, and Minyeong noona cashed in big.
Minyeong noona grinned ear-to-ear at the surprise attention, articles popping up non-stop. Her lifelong dream, she couldn’t hide her joy: “If only every day was like this.”
Noona’s new hobby: snapping daily face pics to track changes. My empty gallery was now stuffed with her shots.
From “ugly girl” to “decently pretty,” noona’s confidence skyrocketed. Hence the selfie spam. Side effect: overcompensating for years of giving up on looks.
Quick meets, yeah. I’d just cum down her throat and done. She’s satisfied with that. And.
My cum amps her arousal, so she can’t stick around long.
Sighing at her refusal. My coin-bought ability was overperforming. She’d drag herself from set to milk me dry at the dorm. Claims it even restores her stamina. Insane obsession. Not like skipping a day makes her ugly again.
Is it the addiction or looks fixation?
Either way, she ain’t letting go. Even if she learns about my other girls.
“Here. Get out~”
“Okay.”
Texts done, I rode the elevator to 3F recording studio.
“Whoa~ Big place. For the agency.”
“They don’t own the whole building.”
“Oh yeah?”
“Upper floors are other offices.”
Honey Enter owns their whole building. This mid-tier agency didn’t.
Here for a schedule gig.
“O! Haesol! Long time.”
“Hey.”
Inside, a pretty woman with flashy blonde bob greeted me.
“Nice to see ya~! Still sparkling as ever! Heard the drama killed it? Congrats! No wonder you’re trending.”
“Thanks.”
I scooped up the praise and greeted the rest. Here for a featuring gig—needed to impress for smooth sailing.
“Congrats on the solo activity.”
“Hehe, thanks.”
The woman before me: INAngel’s Nana. Six years active. From nobodies to breakout via variety success, now chart-toppers. But with 7-year contracts nearing end, solos were future-proofing.
This featuring was huge for her career. An honor to be asked.
