Sajik's Savior <Shall We Save Nipflix in Crisis?>

"…Hmm."

I reflexively hit accept without thinking. After grinding through quests worth a few thousand or ten thousand IP, seeing over a hundred thousand IP made my eyes spin. Not to mention skill upgrade cards and even growth semen. It was packed with exactly what I needed.

This one had to be done, no matter what.

But 20 million cumulative views? 500 million hours?

The conditions looked pretty tough. First, I needed to gauge what level that really was.

On the way back to the company, I pulled up info on Nipflix on my phone.

"Not settling for mediocrity, as expected."

In terms of watch time, it had to rank in the top 3 among all dramas aired on Nipflix so far to meet those thresholds.

As I passed through the company lobby, Executive Director Oh Minseo spotted me like she'd been waiting and rushed over.

"You're back? You saw this, right?"

She waved the papers in her hand. The top sheet had the massive Nipflix logo plastered on it. A contract with a platform this huge was a first for the company, and Minseo looked thrilled.

"How'd this happen?"

"No idea. They suddenly said they want you as the lead. Title's… King of Tears or something?"

"Just fishing around?"

"Nah. They seemed ready to meet tomorrow if we let 'em. So I bought us a week."

I followed Minseo to the VIP lounge. Papers were already spread out on the table—probably contract-related docs.

"A week? Why?"

"They're the ones in a hurry. Plus, even for Nipflix, we gotta check the synopsis and your schedule. Here, this is the King of Tears synopsis."

"……."

King of Tears was a romantic comedy about Seo Jinwoo, legal director of Royal Group, and Hwang Hye-na, the chaebol third-gen heir. Strangely, the male and female leads were already married, but as their dripping-with-honey 'honeymoon' vibe starts to fade, crises hit and conflicts unfold.

Feels familiar…

I'd heard of something with a similar title back in the old world, but I hadn't watched it, so no clue if the plot matched. Anyway, it was unique. True to this reversed world, the heroine took charge and solved everything, while the hero supported her…

"…Total ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠munchkin."

Peerless in martial and scholarly arts, handsome looks as a bonus, perfect at housework and everything else. Packing in every female fantasy of this world had jacked up the standards insanely.

Still, it looked fun. Even if it wasn't, the quest demanded it.

"What do you think? Up for it? Your casual hobby scenes from Perfect Man popped up a lot."

"Yeah."

It was just a bit of fun I'd thrown in, but viewers loved it. Especially the part where he couldn't find anyone for a 4-player board game and soloed all four roles—that got the biggest laughs.

"Seeing Seo Jinwoo brought those scenes right to mind. Guess Nipflix was impressed by that too."

"Hmm…."

The discussion dragged on late into the night. Not just Minseo—key staff from the actor team joined for a briefing. Nipflix's demands, contract scope, overseas promo, schedule conflicts. Complicated stuff flew back and forth.

But the Boz staff looked more excited than exhausted. And why not? It was Nipflix. They picked our actor for their in-house drama, not some other agency.

"Getting too hyped could be trouble."

Once the meeting wrapped, Minseo grumbled with a sour face, wary of the staff buzzing over the Nipflix name.

"Why? They're all fired up."

"Wouldn't want false hopes."

As Minseo said, Boz was barely mid-tier in drama/film production—small planning company level at best. Excluding me, they had zero top-tier actors to boast, and I wasn't even homegrown.

"Look on the bright side. We're stacking experience one step at a time."

"What? Whose side are you on?"

"What, jealous?"

As I said it, I hugged Minseo from behind and slipped my hand right into her blouse, groping her breast.

"Jealous my— Ngh! Hey, where are you— Hnngh!"

After all our romps, just tweaking her nipple had her moaning like a slut.

I glanced at Jeong Hye-ryeong waiting in the back chair. She got the hint, stood smoothly, and locked the VIP room door.

Manager perks were handy.

Door secured, I went all in on Minseo's tits.

"Hnnngh, ahh…!"

Minseo's weakness: her rack. Teasing with fingers, I stripped her top, nipped her puffy nipple, and sucked. She shuddered hard—cumming just from tit play, it seemed.

Lazily sucking away, Minseo peeled off her soaked panties and spread her pussy for me.

"F-Fuck me…!"

"…Nah."

"Wh-Why?!"

Minseo stammered in shock. Instead of answering, I thrust my hips forward.

She got it, kissing my throbbing tip reverently.

"Gulp! Slurp! Gluuuuurp!"

She bobbed fiercely, tongue coiling around my cock. I'd heard endlessly about her stardom at Boz—ruling Korea's teen scene. Seeing that queen slutting out on me made my dick throb harder.

"Agggh…! Ah, aaaaah!!! Y-Yes—!!"

I blew a load down her throat, then gave her what she craved, gripping her big white ass tight.

And a week later, the Nipflix rep visited the company.

"Hello, Han. Nice to meet you like this."

Golden hair cascaded in seductive curves over her shoulders, framing blue eyes that smoldered with hidden fire as they slowly scanned me. My first meeting with Nipflix's Asia branch head, Mayling Carter.

* * *

Talks with Nipflix stayed friendly throughout. They wanted the same charm from Perfect Man in their original drama King of Tears. The writer apparently pushed hard for me.

Boz had no reason to refuse.

"If schedules align smoothly, production starts in June. Mind kicking off script reading late May? What do you say?"

Mayling slid papers over, her subtle perfume wafting. Confirming their timeline, I felt her eyes piercing me from across the table.

"……."

Her golden locks shifted, blouse gaping just enough from my angle to tease inside.

Interesting.

Foreigner game was top-tier. An ugly hag or fat chick would've been a no-go, but Mayling was a beauty by my standards. In this male-scarce reversed world, top social layers demanded skills and looks. A fine world indeed.

"Not bad… but we'll need adjustments. Our actor here…."

Company rep Cha Serin, at the meeting with me, smiled softly and continued.

"Starts pro baseball in March."

"Oh? Pro—you mean KBO?"

"Yes, joining Busan Minions."

"Whoa… a male pro baseball player. Impressive."

Mayling feigned surprise at Serin's words—Nipflix level should've known, but her acting was pro.

Schedule tweaks proceeded, laced with her personal interest in me. She was hooked.

"Script reading in May, main shoot June—but tailor to Han Jimin's schedule."

"Think Minions will okay this?"

"We'll get their buy-in separately."

"That'd be great."

Tight schedule, obviously. But I couldn't ditch a 150k+ IP quest. Nor bail on Minions mid-way.

With logistics sorted, Mayling tilted her head, eyes roaming me head to toe. Then she scooted her chair closer, blunt.

"For contract cheers, care for dinner?"

Blatant invite, sizzling with heat. Tempting ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠as hell, but…

"Thanks, but can't tonight."

"Prior engagement?"

"Yeah. I'll reach out later."

Mayling nodded, fished a business card from her pocket, and toyed with my hand softly as she handed it over.

"Call anytime."

With a sultry farewell, she thanked the staff and left the conference room.

Once Mayling was gone, Minseo shook her head at me.

"Whew, that vixen. Came locked and loaded to devour our Jimin."

"You know her?"

"Not personally, but rumors fly. Nipflix's male vampire, Mayling Carter. One guy lost 5 kilos tangled with her. Choi Ji-hoon."

"5 kilos…."

Western Han Jiyeong? Sucked him dry inside out.

"Choi Ji-hoon—the famous actor?"

"Yep. KM's star. Tanked hard in Nipflix exclusive last time."

Crashing to one woman meant his stamina sucked.

Not tonight, but soon.

Chance to show Mayling Carter a real stud would come.

Wrapping up, I felt eyes on me. Cha Serin.

"Got a sec alone, Actor Han Jimin?"

Her brown eyes blinked softly as she watched me quietly. Our first one-on-one since the deal to take over Boz.
