Hey can I request a Junmyeon fic we’re his a big fan of red velvet and his idol girlfriend gets extremely jealous and insecure because she never sees him cheer or fan boy over her group and thinks she likes them more than her and also feel insecure and not good enough next to Irene and they get in a fight and he gets defensive offer Irene and they fight but he soon regrets it and the boys and her group members try to get them to make up. 😂😂 this is a crazy idea but I thought it is good I love Junmyeon and Irene they have a good friendship I wish I had a friendship like that 😭anyways you don’t have to do this if you don’t want to I understand🥰

Half a year later and I actually had some time and headspace to write this. It also got longer than I thought. And helped me to get out of a current slump. So I am thankful. Please enjoy and tell me what you think!

Jealousy

Pairing: Kim Junmyeon/Suho (EXO) x Fem!Reader; Genre: idol au, established relationship au, romance, angst, fluff; Rating: sfw, pg-13; Warnings: jealousy, a verbal fight, mentions of the press being the press; Wordcount: 1.753

Summary: You had sworn to yourself not to be jealous, yet seeing Junmyeon going crazy whenever it came to Irene and her group but being seemingly passive when it came to you and your group, you couldn’t help but feel the roaring green monster inside of you.

Your stomach grumbled silently and you placed a hand over it, hoping you’d be able to eat soon. Yet, you knew the award show would be going on for a little longer. Half of the groups hadn’t performed yet and yours was one of them.

A newly debuted group currently performed their song - a soulful ballad - which had lots of other idols swaying their bodies to the tune.

Your eyes wandered around the darkened area. The brightly lit stage was surrounded with tables and seating arrangements for every invited group. Cameramen walked between them to film some reactions, reminding you that even off stage you had an image to maintain.

When your eyes landed on the table of EXO a small smile creeped up on your lips. The members joked around by reacting overly touched to the song, trying everything to keep their snickering at bay.

Junmyeon leaned back with a grin on his face and simply watched Baekhyun lip syncing dramatically. As if he noticed your gaze on him, he turned his head and looked at you.

When he winked at you with one eye you had to break eye contact, hoping the heat crawling up your neck and to your face wouldn’t be visible. Especially since you’d be soon up on stage with your own group.

On cue a staff member notified your table to move backstage.

With one last glance towards Junmyeon and a soft smile, you followed your members through the dark and behind the stage.

Soon enough your group got announced and you moved on to the stage, waiting for the music to start. Your eyes automatically searched for EXO’s table again, wondering whether Junmyeon cheered for you like your fans did already.

The smile plastered on your lips since you stepped on the stage almost wavered when you noticed he didn’t even pay any attention to your group. Throughout the whole performance you used every chance you got to look into his direction, hoping - no begging - he’d cheer for you at one point.

You breathed heavily once the song ended, standing in your ending position and glancing one last time at Junmyeon. You smiled weakly, seeing he at least joined the final applause.

Back behind the stage you met Red Velvet, who waited on their cue. You and all your members bowed to them, wishing them luck for the performance.

While the rest of your group moved to the changing rooms, you stayed behind - a nasty feeling bugging you.

As Red Velvet moved on the stage, you peered through the curtains. Your jaw tensed when you saw Junmyeon standing up and applauding them for simply coming on to the stage. Rooted in place, you watched him throughout the whole performance. With every cheer and every shout coming out of his mouth, your heart broke a little more.

You knew Junmyeon was friends with Irene for a long time already. Yet, you still hoped he would cheer his own girlfriend on just as much if not even more. But the case was the absolute opposite.

You broke out of your stupor and hurried to the changing rooms. Thankfully your members didn’t question why you were late and - if they noticed - your dull mood.

Once you got back out of the room, about to return to your table with your group, Junmyeon waited for you in front. You stopped in your tracks and simply stared at him without saying a word.

Junmyeon smiled and came closer to you as soon as your members went aside to give you two some room. “You were awesome on stage.” He grabbed your hands and drew circles onto your skin.

“Are you sure you’re saying this to the right person?”

Junmyeon froze upon hearing your cold tone. He looked at you with concern layering his features, finally noticing the distant look in your eyes. “What do you mean?”

“Don’t you want to say that to the person you actually cheered on? Red Velvet’s changing room is in that direction.” You pointed to your right, eyes following your finger.

“I wanted to tell my girlfriend.” Junmyeon barely brought any words out, too stunned by your almost hostile behaviour towards him.

You turned your head back to him, tilting it slightly to one side. “Are you sure that is me? I don’t really feel like your girlfriend when I see you paying attention to anything but my performance and at the same time you go crazy when Irene is on stage. Maybe she should be your girlfriend instead!”

Junmyeon finally composed himself and shook his head, anger flaring up inside of him. “You know full well there is nothing between Irene and me.”

“I said maybe there should be!”

“Don’t be ridiculous! Irene and I are friends! Simply friends! You know that! The public knows that too! Unlike with our relationship! I know we’re not actively keeping it secret but not having the press on my back because of it, is something I want to maintain. So excuse ME for not publicly being all over you.”

You scoffed and crossed your arms in front of your chest. “So paying attention to my group performing is being publicly all over me? Me asking you to cheer for my group is already too much? Fine. But then don’t come here and tell me I was awesome when I know you haven’t even watched! Go and say the same thing to Irene. There we all know it won’t be a lie.”

“Maybe I’ll do that!” Junmyeon spat, barely holding his anger back now. He ran his hands through his hair and glared down at you.

“Good”, you hissed and pushed against his chest, going past him and to your group.

Your members were shell-shocked and stared at you with a mixture of worry and fear. Some of them even looked over your shoulder towards Junmyeon.

You motioned for your members to move back to your table, ignoring their glances and questions. As an idol you were professional enough to not break down just yet. You’d have enough time once you’d be back at the dorm.

On your way back you passed the rest of the EXO members going backstage. They greeted you but you ignored them as you still were out of sight of the cameras. Even though you knew they had nothing to do with it, you just couldn’t react to them as of now.

Junmyeon still stood in front of the changing room, staring at the closed door with empty eyes. Ever so slowly the realisation of what just happened dawned on him. Regret filled his insides but he couldn’t just run after you. Not here.

A hand on his shoulder brought him back to the present. He turned his head and noticed his group surrounding him, Sehun having his hand on his shoulder and raising an eyebrow in silent question.

“I think I made a mistake”, Junmyeon whispered and closed his eyes. He swallowed the bail of nausea crawling up his throat back down and inhaled deeply in order to keep himself calm.

You sat down on your chair again and pointedly stared at the stage, forcing your lips to form a soft smile for any cameras that might be turned towards you. Still, your eyes showed how empty you felt just now.

When EXO appeared on stage you desperately wanted to look away but knew that would draw even more suspicion. So you stayed in your position and simply kept staring at the stage.

“You need to talk to him again”, one of your group members whispered to you, getting your attention. “Both of you look awful after what happened.”

Your eyes focused on Junmyeon on stage. He looked professional - just how you looked professional too. “I don’t think I can”, you murmured, more to yourself than to your members.

“Of course you can!”

“Just go backstage! If anyone asks, you need to go to the restrooms.”

“Go and talk to him!”

You sighed deeply and shook your head. Your members were right. Even though you didn’t really want to talk to him right now, still feeling some of your anger, you had to go through with it. Sighing once more, you finally stood up and excused yourself.

Junmyeon noticed immediately that you stood up and left the table, having looked at you whenever he could during the performance. While you had looked at the stage and probably saw the performance, he got what you meant with not cheering for you.

As soon as the last tone of the song cleared out and the moderator stepped back on the stage, Junmyeon hurried away. You hadn’t returned to your table yet and Sehun, as well as the others, had told him to speak to you once the performance was over. Therefore Junmyeon hoped you’d still be backstage, making the whole talking to you a lot easier.

Junmyeon came to a halt when he saw you standing opposite from the backstage entrance. He walked over to you hesitantly as he couldn’t believe you had been waiting for him.

“You looked professional out there.”

He laughed dryly and shook his head. “You also looked professional at your table. But I don’t want you to look professional.”

“Neither do I.”

Junmyeon held one of his hands out for you, silently begging you to take it. When you placed your hand in his and even stepped closer to him, a stone fell from his heart and it suddenly felt like he could breathe again. “It’s not too much asking me to cheer for you”, he whispered as he stared at your connected hands, drawing circles into your skin again. “But I swear I didn’t ignore your performance. You really were awesome out there!”

You moved even closer to him, leaning against his chest and nuzzling into him. “I’m also sorry for my jealous ass behaviour back there.”

Junmyeon shook his head and wrapped his arms around your form, holding you tightly. “No, you had every right to feel that. It was my fault for thinking I shouldn’t cheer you on so the press won’t know that I’m in love with you.”

You snickered softly. “I’d say you’re ridiculous to think the press would come to that conclusion, but sadly they are that delusional to say just that.”

“And I don’t mind”, Junmyeon told you, kissing the top of your head, “you’re my girlfriend and I won’t deny nor hide my love for you any longer.”

“I love you too.”

I think it’s time to bless us with EXO reaction don’t you think 🤔😏 HOW ABOUT they’re like in the middle of preparing for the cb (I’m gonna cry so hard when that actually happens) and gf calls them cause someone is like creepily stalking her and she’s shaky then he gets shaky and then all the members are like tell her to come over to the SM building and she goes and he’s there waiting for her and BAAM fluff balls bouncing everywhere 🥰

I think it's about time 🤌 I can’t wait for the next comeback i miss exo so much 😭 Ok so here we go, my first exo reaction be nice to me guys!

EXO REACTION OF YOU BEING STALKED

Warnings: mentions of stalking and the boys being protective, if that’s a warning to anyone. Author: Maari

SUHO is a gentleman and we all know it so he would of course have offered to pick his girl up from work but she declined because didn't want to get in the way of the comeback. But when she realized that a guy was imitating the same way she was, the only thing that crossed her mind was to call Suho. “Hey babe, have you arrived home?“ “Honey, I think someone is following me.” Her voice was so low and small that he stopped talking to the boys and got up from the couch, feeling his legs go weak. "Who is following you?" the guys saw Suho's concern and he could only hear her heavy breathing on the other end of the line, she had probably increased her pace. “I don’t know.” “Hey, hyung.” Baekhyun moved his hands to make Suho look at him. “Tell her to come to the building“ Suho looked at the group that agreed and he smiled, telling her exactly what the guys said and when she announced that was on the street in the building, he left the studio in a hurry. He didn't drop the phone for a minute and only calmed down when he saw her walking towards him, the frightened expression made him hug her tight, was enough for her to soften in his arms. “You will never walk alone again.” he promised, stroking her hair and looking down the street, seeing the follower's face. 40 years from now he would still remember that face. He took her to the studio and kept their hands clasped as he stroked her skin with his thumb, he just wanted to make sure she was okay.

XIUMIN is a playful but well-experienced guy. That's why he didn't show concern when his girlfriend told him someone was following her even though he was biting his nails on the other end of the line, that doesn't mean he wasn't worried.. "I'm outside the building, meet me there." She nodded on the other end of the line even though he couldn't see and practically ran for the building when she reached the corner. He was so relieved to see her walking towards him that he didn't even wait for her to approach, he finished the path himself to give her a long kiss on the lips. "You're safe now." he assured, wrapping her body between his and felling her heart beat fast against his chest. They entered the building together while he hugged her around the waist and assured that everything was fine, even with the hug he made sure to hold her hand to make it stop shaking. He would give the world to her for the rest of the day.

YIXING he seems like a very calm guy but please don't mess with the safety of those he loves because i'm pretty sure he transforms. She would be at the hotel waiting for the news of the recordings when an unknown number called her and as she didn't know what it could be, answered. Whoever was talking said exactly what she was doing sitting on her hotel bed and that scared the shit out of her. She hung up and closed the curtains but messages started going up on her phone and she quickly called Yixing. She explained what had happened in a shaky voice and he suddenly became serious. "I'm heading over there, I won't leave you alone." "You can't stop recording now." she knew how much that comeback meant to him and you didn't want to interrupt. “I don’t care.” Chen asked what had happened and Yixing explained, all the guys agreed for her to go to the building and it was a relief for him. She promised would arrive as soon as possible and he insisted that she keep talking to him. When she got out of the car, he walked up to her and hugged tight. Really tight, practically crushing her. But it wasn't like she was going to complain, she needed it more than it looked. “I'm here and I won't leave your side.” he kissed her forehead and she was finally able to breathe normally, feeling much safer and less alone. I don't think he would let go of her for a minute, even take her into the recording booth with him. After all, he's the boss. CHEN i’m going to write something like with his wife i can't unsee him married The moment his wife called to say that it looked like there was someone outside their house spying on it, he was going to get really mad. Like how dare them, in front of him! He's so protective, like, that's instinct. He is father and husband. He practically begged her to take the kids and go to the building. He couldn't stay another minute away from his family knowing that someone was watching over what was most precious to him. He waited outside the building in the middle of the cold without a decent jacket but it wasn't the cold he was worried about. When his wife parked, he opened the door and hugged her tightly, looking at the children in the backseat. God only knew how tight his heart had been during the time she'd called until he'd seen them again. ”This was the first and only time that ever happened.” he promised. She was sure the next day he would fight whoever it was to keep his family safe again. KYUNGSOO rip to anyone who tries to get close to his girlfriend without her actually allowing it. I don't even think he'd wait for her to go to the building, he'd ask her to share her location and he'd go there with his fists clenched. The comeback recordings? That was going to wait. He'd go to the store she'd entered for security and pull her close to him, asking who was the asshole following her. Without saying, quite scared, she would just bury her face in his neck “Can we leave?” ”Anything for you, babe.” He would stay with her hugging him until they got to the car, but before that he would leave the store staring at everyone with that famous death stare. The short ones are the angriest I know this too, from experience. He would drive back to the building with his hand holding hers and would probably sing to calm her down 🥺 BAEKHYUN I think we underestimated him, and when I say we, I mean me. After everything he's been through, I think after Chen he would be the most protective. Like, the girlfriend has definitely gotten a few messages before but all the two of them did was ignore it. But when she noticed someone was chasing her wherever she went, she would warn him quickly but since he was recording his parts in the studio, he didn't check in until later and called her quickly with shaking hands. "Is someone following you? Where?“ "Since I left the house today, I've seen this face everywhere. It's getting kind of creepy." "Can you come to the building? If not, I can pick you up." He was already pulling his car keys out of his pocket when she agreed. It was a busy street so that reassured her a little. Baekhyun was waiting for her outside with his phone on his chest and watched her approach, while a person in the back scrutinized the two of them. He frowned and took his girlfriend's face with both hands to kiss her forehead, feeling her hug him. "Is that one over there?" he asked seriously and she nodded without looking back. "Don't worry, I'll take care of it tomorrow." He took her inside, making her feel more comfortable and to distract her he showed her some of the songs already recorded and the guys even helped with that. The next day, he actually was looking for a solution to the problem.. CHANYEOL my smol baby he has a sister so being protective is part of him ok. Like kyungsoo, I really believe he probably wouldn't wait for her to arrive at the building and go to where she was. Finding her inside the work building, he hugged her so tightly that she practically disappeared in his arms but that wasn't bad at all. I mean, who didn't want to get lost in those arms? She was shaking and he promised that everything was fine now and that he was there. He also warned that if this happened again, he would put into practice everything he had learned in the army. God bless the korean army. On the way back to the building, because he wouldn't leave her alone for a minute, he would excitedly talk to her about the album and how she would love the parts he had recorded. She would even forget what had happened after seeing him smile so beautifully 😭 KAI I really don't want to see him angry lol I mean, he's a really sweet guy but everything has a limit. He's already felt firsthand what it's like to be followed so the last thing he wants his girlfriend to experience is this and not be around to keep her safe? Worst-case scenario he'd never thought of until she called. He practically jumped off the couch and probably ran the entire building to accompany her arrival, he managed to see her through the door and put his hands on her shoulder, scanning her from head to toe to make sure she was okay. “I’m fine, honey.” “I want to guarantee, are you sure?” I think he would probably spend the rest of the day asking every five minutes if she was really okay and spoiling her all the time because he was worried. Oh yeah, and he would definitely keep her on his lap so she wouldn't leave his side for even a second. SEHUN I don't see him showing any sign of anger but a lot of concern. Like, how many times had that happened without her noticing? And how would he keep her safe? I think he would probably be shaking more than his girlfriend when she arrived at the building, then she would have to say over and over again that she was fine, he would caress her face with such affection before heading back to the studio. "Look, I'll order this for you." he showed her the phone while Xiumin recorded his parts. "What is it?" "Pepper spray. When someone is closer to you, just-" "Sehun, I'm not walking around with pepper spray in my bag." "I'm not asking for your permission." sassy sehun comes but it’s because he's really concern In the end, she would walk around with the pepper spray 'cause we all know he gets everything he wants stubborn the way he is and he would pray she didn't have to use it.

[Translation] INTERVIEW: Park Kang Hyun of The Man Who Laughs says, “Gwynplaine, who dreams of a better world, is like me”

By Park Min Hee February 8, 2020 Translated by @anywaythewinds

source

Translator’s note: This interview was conducted during the second season of The Man Who Laughs, an original production of EMK. Full disclosure that I am not a native Korean speaker, I just study it and translate for fun. Read at your own risk. If you find any mistakes please message me :) also please don't steal or quote without credit (link to this post) thank you

[some minimal notes from me are in brackets]

For the audience members that attended the premiere season of The Man Who Laughs, what do they remember? The cast was irreplaceable; even the most talented actors would have difficulty getting into its ranks. Musical production company EMK invested five years and a record 17.5 billion KRW into the production, saying, “We could not have created anything greater.” For a production of this scale, the casting of Park Hyo Shin and Suho made sense, but the appearance of Park Kang Hyun, who had barely grown out of “rookie” status, was unfamiliar and even brave. Park Kang Hyun says that while at that time it was scary, he now thinks of himself as a rising star working to become an even better storyteller.

How do you feel about doing The Man Who Laughs again? When it was confirmed that I would be in the second season, I definitely felt some pressure to perform better than in the premiere, but I was mostly excited to be doing it again. The order of some scenes got switched around so Gwynplaine’s journey is shown more naturally. I also had a hand in creating this work as a part of the premiere season of an original production, so I contemplated more deeply about the character’s layers. Since some time has passed, aren’t I at least one percent deeper as a person, too? From my love for Dea and my father [Ursus], to my conviction to change the world with my beliefs, I’m experiencing everything more powerfully and deeply. I thought that since it’s a musical that I’ve done before that it would be a lot easier, but it’s much more difficult both physically and emotionally. But I feel that as difficult as it is, the final product turns out a little better, too.

The Man Who Laughs received a lot of acclaim during the premiere season - you must be a bit proud of yourself From the beginning, I poured my soul into this show. I do the same for every show I’m in, but since it was an original production, it was much more challenging. When you’re creating something, it always ends up getting changed, and if you get a better idea it gets changed again. Perhaps because of that process, I’m even more attached to this musical - through this show, I received an award and a lot of people discovered me, so it became a really meaningful piece of work to me.

Are there more reasons to why you felt that this show is physically and emotionally draining? I feel it the most during the curtain call. It’s when I get to say thank you to everyone that came to see the show, but my legs shake so much that I can’t even stand straight. It shows that I’ve really poured my entire being into the show. I’ve never done another show where I’m having such a hard time during the curtain call. Of course it was already a struggle in 2018, but it wasn’t as hard as this time. I think because I know what to do now that I’m putting more of myself into it. I’m pouring my heart and soul into it but I still wonder if what I’m doing is right. Like, is it supposed to be such a struggle? But I shouldn’t feel like I’m already using up all the tricks under my belt, so it really feels like I’m crashing into the stage [to be honest, no idea what he’s trying to say here]. The other Gwynplaines also say it’s hard but I think I’m having the hardest time.

During the premiere season, the other actors casted in the same role as you were extremely popular. Since then, as you’ve done more musicals, you’ve gained more fans and filled more seats - do you feel like you’ve proved yourself with just your skill? It was scary. I try not to feel pressured by it but it’s impossible not to. So I try to do even better, and I also hope that I can seal my place as the actor people think of when they hear about The Man Who Laughs. I’m not sure about what the ticket sales are like, but there should be more people that know who I am now, and there’s even people that watched the movie The Man Who Laughs and then came to the show. It’s cool and I’m very thankful.

It can be said that The Man Who Laughs is EMK’s representative work. It’s clear that in the art world, Korea is raising the bar for musicals. But there’s something missing in the narrative between characters. The main character is Gwynplaine - what do you think is the story that you’re telling? The one thing that is the most lacking to me is that the main theme is “The paradise of the rich is made by the hell of the poor,” but in the show you can’t actually see what that hell looks like. If the audience can see that hell then it’s easier for them to get the message, but that hell is only implied in the show. All the characters that perform inside the story are all impoverished people, but they don’t really look to be in misfortune. I try really hard to show with my eyes that I see those people and think, “Yes, we’ve lived like this until now, I have to change the way things are for them,” but it’s difficult to fully convey that since it’s implied. Given the show’s limits, all I can do is try my best. The plot development is quick, but we have to express everything within the limited amount of time. If it was a four hour long show maybe it could be explained better; if it was a movie perhaps we could efficiently transition between scenes, but I think this is also a part of the Korean musical industry’s development process.

Was there anything that you suggested to the directing team that was put into the show? We are always communicating but the process of making something efficiently and well is not easy. I try to change stuff in scenes or in the lines, but when you actually perform a change it ends up different from what’s in your head, so I kept thinking that it really must be hard to be a director. There’s a part where Gwynplaine says this long speech after Lady Josiana comes to see Gwynplaine’s performance, and I changed the order of those lines. Gwnplaine also has this monologue before singing “I Could Change the World” when he’s expressing his conviction to change the world where he says, “Yes, I’m Gwynplaine, but I’m also Lord Clancharlie. Now I know the meaning of my fate. I got it, I can change it all!” I also changed the order for these lines so it sounded more natural. You know, actor Yang Jun Mo [Ursus] even now keeps thinking about the show even after he’s gone home. He thinks, “Today, I’m going to do this scene this way, won’t it be better if I do it this way?” and brings something new to the show every day. I’m really thankful for it and I also think it’s something I should emulate. It’s all a part of the creation process of The Man Who Laughs.

It seems like you look more at the entire piece of work rather than just what you have to do. When I work on a musical, I usually think only about the entire musical. It’s okay if I’m not seen. If the musical’s message is properly expressed to the audience, then I don’t want to nor need to stand out. But Gwynplaine is a character that needs to stand out, since the message is communicated to the audience through my journey. It’s kind of like I’m trying to solve an impossible homework problem.

The two actors that play Josiana have different vibes. What’s different about working with each of them? Shin Young Sook pulls me along with powerful charisma, so powerful that you can’t shake off her seduction. Kim So Hyang has kind of a cute side to her since she has a small frame, but when she seduces you, she’s definitely not to be underestimated. I think that’s the biggest difference. I get seduced and I can’t break free from it. I decided that for my Gwynplaine, it’s the first time a woman has ever done something like that to him. He’s tempted by this excitement that he’s feeling for the first time, but since he’s been hidden away and separate from other people since he was young, he feels like he shouldn’t be feeling these emotions. And what he feels for Dea is a love even bigger than love, someone that’s even more precious than himself, that she could even be his entire identity as a person. A person more precious than Gwynplaine. But, in reality, I personally don’t love anything to that extent, since I have to exist to be myself. Dea’s like a unicorn in a fantasy world. I’m not a romantic person like that. Like I empathize with my friends if they’re upset, but since they’ll be okay after a while… (smiles)

Since you grew so fast, you seem to be a role model for a lot of actors. One could say that I’m growing very fast, but I’m still in the process of learning and growing. There’s a lot still for me to do and a lot of mountains to climb, so I think I don’t quite deserve it yet. I think people that consider me their role model just don’t know better or something. But I’ll acknowledge it if they’re just wishing that they could also get the same opportunities so quickly.

Anything interesting stories from the audition process? There’s been times where even though I feel confident going into an audition I get too nervous and get rejected, and times where I have no confidence but end up doing better than I thought and getting the role. The Man Who Laughs was like that. In May 2017, I auditioned for The Last Kiss and got to the final round. That was the first time that the EMK producers saw me. If I didn’t do that audition, it’s possible that I wouldn’t have been able to do The Man Who Laughs. I really didn’t feel confident about The Last Kiss, but even I think I did well. (smiles) Director Kim Moon Jeong must have thought, “It’s the first time I’m seeing this kid but he’s pretty good.” She’s a professor at Hanse University and I heard from my friends that she said in class, “Do you all know Park Kang Hyun? He’s pretty good.” I felt pretty proud of that.

People say that you’re like blank drawing paper. What do you think of that? I’ve said that I’m like that myself. I like it. It could mean that I don’t have any super special qualities, but I’ve always been that kind of person. I fit in wherever I go and don’t stick out. I personally think that I’m like running water. Those that say that about me, they’re right. That’s the kind of person I am.

You have precise diction. Is that something you work hard on? A performance is for the audience to watch, but at the same time you’re still having a conversation with the actor next to you. Actor Jung Sung Hwa said this to me: imagine while walking down the street someone picks a fight with you. There are bystanders that gather around you, so there’s a nuance where the one that decides who wins the argument is not the person you’re fighting with, but the bystanders. You’re speaking to the person you’re arguing with in front of you, but you also have to think that you’re speaking to everyone else that’s around you. When you have the intention to communicate precisely, and you also know precisely what you’re trying to say, then you’ll be able to communicate precisely. I also pay close attention to the Korean language’s short/long sounds, and I think I try to slow down a bit if it seems like I’m speaking a bit too fast to understand.

Is there a role that you’ve done that you like the most? For every role I take on, I create the character by finding the intersection between myself and the role, and I’ve never had any major struggle when doing this, but the easiest character has been Gwynplaine. He’s a free spirit and a bit mischievous. He has some sadness in him, and he also has a passion for going down the right path. Moreover, since it was the premiere of an original production and I could create this character, it was easier for me to play this character.

What does the director think of Park Kang Hyun the actor? The director himself is great at acting - he was once an actor. He’s directed a lot of shows in Korea so I think he’s become quite Koreanized. He’s emotionally sensitive and detailed. He has us rehearse until the scene matches what he’s looking for. When I’ve rehearsed it a few times, I kind of get the scene he sees in his head. Starting from the second season, it’s been easy to carry out what the director wants. He’s older in age but he’s incredibly passionate. Sometimes he hits my head. In Korea, if someone hits your head you’d be shocked, but I guess outside of Korea it’s common to smile and hit people’s heads. (smiles) If Robert [the director] was Korean, he might not have been as easy and comfortable to work with. This season, Robert saw two shows and went back home, and he said, “Of all the shows I’ve seen so far, this one is the perfect performance. You’ve performed everything I wanted.” I was moved. He said that while hitting my head. (smiles) I feel like I can tell what he wants with just a look. My English has also gotten better thanks to him.

Anything planned after this? Is there a role that you want to play? I think I’ll rest. I’m also thinking about what different roles I could try. I want to try Phantom [it's a bit ambiguous but I think it's likely that means ALW]. Raoul while I’m in my 20s, and Phantom in my 30s. I want to train myself. I don’t exercise at all except for my fingers. I need to improve my stamina and strength. I don’t think I’ve ever taken a proper rest. I kind of want to try TV dramas or movies, but I don’t think it’s time yet. I started out with a film so I think I want to try doing another film the most.

Will Miraclass activities continue? We made some organizational changes, so I think Miraclass will continue. A while ago, some fans sent a coffee truck to a The Man Who Laughs show and the Miraclass members kept making fun of the picture of me on the monitor. [I think he starts talking about his solo concert here, not sure how this part is related to the question lol] I really wanted to put on a good show for the audience members that came to see me, so if I’m able to do it again I think it’ll be fun. It was a meaningful time. While I was doing it, I thought to myself, “Park Kang Hyun has grown up a bit!” but at the same time I was like, “Is it real life that I’m having so much fun right now?” But I think my next solo concert I’m going to have to push to 10 years later.

Self esteem is the trend. How do you take care of yourself mentally? I work hard not to waver, when I’m extremely tired, when I’m out of it mentally, or when I’m tired but I still have to get to work. Like when you were in middle school and you really didn’t want to go to school. I think, “I wish I could disappear right now.” I’m super tired in the morning. There’s nothing worse. While I’m in a musical, I feel so tired that I want to disappear, but I think, I can’t be like this! And I break out of it and get up. In a way, it’s like I’m becoming a superhero. I feel like such a wimp when I start shivering in the winter cold, so even if I feel like my head is going to split open I take a shower with cold water. After showering, even if I go outside into the cold, steam comes from my body and I’m warm. I get stronger. Sometimes, if I ask myself questions it helps. Often when I’m contemplating something it’s just in my head, but if I say it out loud and hear it and answer myself, the solution appears clearly.

Is there a question you asked yourself during the hardest times? It was when I was about to graduate from university and I wasn’t doing well on my auditions. I was walking on an overpass on my way home, and I kept asking myself questions; after all I chose this career because I wanted to do it, so if I just give up because I’ve failed a few times then I’m just a weak willed person. So what am I going to do? I’m going to follow this path to the end, I remember saying. In reality there was nothing in front of me: I was failing my auditions and completely in despair, but if other people are making it, then what am I if I can’t make it too? I talked to myself like that. That’s another trait I have in common with Gwynplaine - I like imagination. And I’m actually a bit of a comedian. The rumors that I only tell dad jokes are wrong.

Is there a belief or principle you hold with which you want to influence other people? I’m a person that always wishes for a better world. From my present position, I think the only thing I can do is to express the message a musical holds to even just one person in the audience. So I always perform sincerely, every single show. I can’t know for sure how I’ve influenced others, but if someone came to see a show and then thought about it afterwards, then I think I’ve done my job. When I was in middle school and I prayed for the first time in church, I had nothing in particular to pray for so I just prayed for world peace. So that everyone can live peacefully. I saw a saying that was like, if everyone in the world had a pet dog then there would be no war in the world. I kind of see where they’re coming from. Dogs are so cute that you become kinder.

Finally, how do you want to end this story? This could be the last time you’ll be able to see Park Kang Hyun’s Gwynplaine. Come see one of my shows while my voice is younger. Perhaps everything could be resolved if Gwynplaine took a little more time to reach out to the audience when he appears.

#박강현 #park kang hyun #translation #the man who laughs #웃는 남자 #some of the things he says is so funny #like very stream of consciousness answers some times #most of all i think you can feel just how much he loves gwynplaine and is devoted to performing as him to the best of his ability #korean musicals

Il consulente

Featuring: EXO Ensemble

Your family has worked as the mafia group go-to financial advisors and consultants. When a hit is sent out, by a rogue mafia group, your entire family s wiped out. You are left with only your brother. The EXO take you under their protection, regardless of your protests to want to leave the mafia world behind, along with your troubled memories.

Warning: More blood, Injury.

_____________________________________________

Suho's scolding words stay with you for days, but you were still unable to swipe right, to receive your brother's phone calls. At first, when you had returned, and days after your heated return and exchange, he had been calling excessively for hours at a time. Each call 'missed' or the phone turned off when you were busy with work.

As weeks continued the repeated calls still came, but fewer and far spread, each day. Then recently, you could not make sense of the Wills sent to your office, of your parents, family members and his own updated copy, to let you know of all they have left behind. Of what he intended to leave behind for you.

You will not pretend to act as though Yunho's Will, had not let your stomach drop, but you had no one to share your worries with. Not even Suho or, perhaps Kyungsoo-hyung since they were always out of the house and recently, traveling out the country more frequently. Where to and the length of periods, were never shared with you, although you never asked. Only when you heard their car drive past your window, would you know of their safe return.

Now seated outside, in the central area of the business complex, the office public moved out and about around you. Your coat blazer was stifling in the warm weather compared to the chilling air con in the office.

Minseok was somewhere, but nowhere in your sight. You know, where ever he stood to watch over you, was seething in anger, that you left your building without letting him know. Without his approach, you know he understood that you needed fresh air, although you could have called or shot a text at him for courtesy's sake.

You visibly shrug, with your blank phone, as silent as the past four days. Your brother has not called since then. Apart from Suho's texts checking up on you, Minseok's timely calls at the end of your day to tell you to leave the office, your brother was the only one who called your personal phone.

"What are you up to now, hyung? What is happening Yunho? Have you chosen to ignore me once more, because I have been ignoring you?" A heavy sigh escapes your lips, just as Minseok appears infront of you, with mildly concealed glower, that you spot behind his calm exterior.

"Minseok, I..." you start but you're cut off, with a harsh grab under your arm, stumbling you to your feet.

"Get back to your building and Sehun can keep an eye, so I can clean up, after you." He bit out, close to your ear and shoves you to start moving.

Your confused look is dismissed with his growl, for you to comply without question. That tells you to shut your mouth and do as he says. Your own panic climbs, when you throw your eyes all around you, to spot the danger you know you're in.

You have only returned for a measly four weeks, but you're already in danger of losing your life.

Staggering and nearly stumbling, you throw your eyes ahead, to the building almost a hundred metres ahead of you. However that will be just too much smooth sailing, in your dangerous world. There are busy bodies, nudging and bumping shoulders as the rushing crowd in the complex moves from and to their desired destinations.

A memory flings itself into your consciousness, grinding you to breathless halt. Shock leaves you unseeing and winded in the moving crowd. Tears sting your eyes and your heart aches at the fear in the voices you remember.

"Hyung, why are they attacking? Why are they being killed?" Your horror grows the longer you stand by the window, knuckles turning white on the clutched curtains, while your frame shook and shivered as you watched your family's most valued, trusted and fond men and women drop like flies in the dark gardens. Those people have been in your life, since forever.

"Son, get your sister and do all you can to protect her!" Your father's voice wrenches your eyes from the outside massacre, to a glimpse of your parents rushing up and down the stairs with heaps of files in their arms.

"YN, get back!" It's your brother's commands that pull you back to your rooted spot.

You spot the armed figure standing outside your window, with a gun poised in his hands, directly aimed at you. The gun, uselessly, fitted with a suppressor, when the once quiet night was roaring with gunfire, barked orders and cries of dying men and women.

Who has your family wronged in recent months, for them to stage an attack of this nature?

"Keys... hyung, he betrayed the Kim cla-" your stunned murmurs are hung in the air when your brother's solid, towering frame barrels into you.

You were a road-crossing away from your building. Halted in your stumbling flee for safety, a car makes a dead stop in front of you. You are given no time to understand just what is happening.

A suppressor sticks out of the heavily dimmed out windows, rolled down just enough.

A glance down to your bodyguard's direction, he's too distracted by his own fight to notice where you stood and what exactly stood in front of you.

You feel by your body being, twice, jolted back a step and the immediate burn in your belly and the warm splatters on your chest and neck. You have been struck, as the tires screech away.

Blood... not so much blood, again.

Flung by impact, your body slides on the floor, to come to a halt with your head hitting the marble vase stand, the said vase shattering down on your brother's back. Your head and ears scream, when bullets shatter the glass you had stood in front of seconds ago.

"Not only Keys... He never works alone, sister." Your brother was covering your frame on the floor, his gun knocked out of his hand during the fall.

Next you remember is yourself kneeling on the floor, arms tightly bound to your back and a tickling trickle of blood down your neck.

Lee SooMan and Taemin stood there.

Again, here stands in frint of you, Lee Taemin. Nephew to the notorious Lee SooMan, and heir to the Lee mafia family's wealth and territories. One of your family's oldest clients and somewhat rival, in various aspects of business and shady dealings. The same man you refused to be promised to marry, and probably the reason why your own family was attacked and killed.

No. I fucked up. I was the one in the wrong. I have wronged the Lee family, and now my family was to pay the price. Your whole body trembled, too stunned into silence above your parents' pleas.

"YN... move it!" You hear from the distance.

Your blouse that once caught the gentlest of breeze that day, now clung for dear life over the growing wet spot around your abdomen.

"Ah, there you are... alive... Or barely so, and kicking?" You can't help the frozen stupor, when you look up to the slim frame of the man in front of you.

"Uhm... T- Tae?..."

"Ah..." The man nods with a lazy drawl, completely impervious to the tension and your growing urgency for help, "back to your stutters, little one. With an interesting choice in your new bodyguard... or is it that much of a surprise?" He shrugs.

"He- help... need help..." You try to hunch over into yourself to catch your breaths but the man's hand on your shoulder makes sure that does not happen.

"Uncle had asked politely that you take the family's accounts..." He moves closer, with his mouth close to your ear, his other hand on your wound. A thumb digs in, eliciting a shout of pain and beads of sweat racing down your face. On instinct, your hands clung to the man's arms to keep yourself upright, "but now that I have had to come, personally to make sure that I convince you otherwise... again. You better think wisely this time around YN, about your choice because your Yunho may not be as lucky this time around."

The thumb, digs further into the wound and your shaking hand makes a weak attempt to push the hand away. Biting your trembling lip, you also make a shaky effort to push away to see where Minseok was?

Taemin encircled his arm around your waist and the public are none the wiser of your interaction.

"Look... look over my shoulder, little one." You're shorter than the man holding you captive on the spot. But you try to look nonetheless around his shoulder. You spot Taemin's childhood best friend and now right-hand man you see. A distant cousin of the Kim hyungs and traitor to the entire Kim clan. "I would hate to send Keys, who only this time, hopes not to make the same mistake to miss his shot again."

"Yu-Yunho..." you stutter.

"No, little one. Right now it about our small walk down memory lane. And I remind you to make the best choice for the sake of your sole remaining family, YN."

Like that, you're pushed away and nearly lose your feet from under you. Right now you're not sure whether your bodyguard knows of your injury, or the other men will know about this already.

"Are you okay, ma'am?" A passing body, nearly collides with you and you murmur your apologies, pulling your blazer tighter around you, your fingers staining the delicate pastel colour.

Your shaking hand pulls out your keycard, entering your building. Security too distracted with the visiting individuals than to look up at the executive personnel entrance you always use to enter the building.

The lifts are too far, when you look down to the dripping blood on the highly polished marble floors.

"Sehun..." You mumble, looking up to try and locate the closest surveillance camera, then turn left in the direction of the door leading to the fire escape staircase.

"Please see me..." again, your card let's you through without raising the alarm, "F-Find me... Min."

The stairs to the underground parking lot, where your bodyguard always parks, is too far.

Your knees wobble and finally give way to your subconscious swallowing you back into the nothingness, you were familiar companions with.

Your breaths were not only shallow, but they stuttered with lathergy unlike that linked you to your nightmares. This tiredness was directly linked to the one of that night, tinged with a sense of giving into the pain to fully consume you.

"Sehun, where the fuck is she?" You hear your bodyguard's frantic shouts from the other side of the door. Your head screams that he's close, don't close your eyes just yet. Keep fighting, a defiant voice at war with your subconscious, bellows at you.

"So tired..." you mumble stealing a look at the dark blood seeping through your trembling fingers, hearing the door finally click.

It bursts open, with it bringing a small gush of wind, and the hurried footsteps. You hang your head back, and see the gruesome smear of your blood against the wall that you had slid down from. Your eyes droop, near to a shut.

"No! Keep your eyes open! I'm here, stay with me." For the very first time, you hear your bodyguard's composure obliterate in your presence.

You listen to the raw emotions you have come to associate with your own grief and pain.

From the depths of your inner chaos and turmoil, and the pain ringing loud and obnoxious through your body, you hear your bodyguard.

Perhaps the slaps, and harsh shove of your hand to be replaced by a heavy press over you wound, were imagined.

Blinking once.

You hear the engine roaring, and frantic shouts and arguing, for the car to be driven faster, or the traffic is in the way. Was that Chen sounding concerned? Oh gods, not Kai hyung. He is the last person you would want to see you like this. He's too precious to see you like that.

Gods, not Kyungsoo hyung too.

There is a heaviness on your belly along with a burning sensation that leaves you gasping in pain.

There is a familiar person straddling your prone position. You're lying on what looks to be the backseat. The jostling car movements, force out moans and shudders of anguish from your barely conscious state.

Blinking twice.

A very tall frame is cradling you, and running up the stairs.

Is it Chanyeol or Sehun?

Gods, I still hope it's not Kai.

The glare irritates your eyes, so you can't see the owner of the voices barking orders to the side of your head.

'I smell too much blood...' this time you're too tired to make a sound of protest at the pain of being moved around.

Okay now I'm tired.

I can't stay.

I really, really can't stay, Minseok.

Okay hello I’m back with another request but this time for my man Kim Junmyeon 😁. Okay so can I request something we’re suho is out shopping with you and your friends and they get jealous and start to call you spoiled and saying that your his sugar baby because every time you try to pay he already handed his credit card to the cashier not letting you pay and they even go as far as to flirt with him to get him to pay for them too but he sassily tells them he only pays for you. And you can make up the end -🫰🏻🫰🏻 (sorry for my bad spelling)

Welcome back!!! Uuuuh exciting! That's my first for Suho! Also don't apologise, your spelling is absolutely fine!! I hope you like what I created : )

Generous

Pairing: Kim Junmyeon/Suho (EXO) x GN!Reader; Genre: Friends to lovers, fluff; Rating: sfw, PG-15; Warnings: mentions of the reader being nervous, mentions of a revealing outfit, the term sugar baby, friends teasing the reader, a friend approaching junmyeon in only their underwear, friends not being good friends in general.... aand kisses; Wordcount: 1.260

Summary: You're out on a shopping trip with your friends and Junmyeon. What started as a nice get together quickly turned into an unpleasant experience or did it?

A/N: Please enjoy this request and tell me what you think!

To say you were irritated was an understatement. You could feel your eyelid twitch every now and then as well as an obnoxious prickle at the base of your neck.

When your friends asked you to join a shopping spree you were excited, happy to see them and spend some time with them again. You got even giddier for the day after they agreed Junmyeon could join the trip.

Everything went well at first. Junmyeon arrived at your place in the morning and the both of you ate breakfast together that you had prepared. Afterwards he drove you into town where you met your friends. You were delighted to see that everyone included him in their chatting as much as possible.

The experience went south once you entered the first store. All of you spread around the aisles, agreeing to meet at the changing rooms after around ten minutes.

Junmyeon accompanied you, checking some of the clothes and even recommending a few to you. He complimented your choices or reassured you when you weren’t too sure, thinking it was too revealing.

You arrived first at the changing rooms and decided to start trying the clothes on instead of waiting for your friends.

Junmyeon sat down on a stool opposite of the room you chose, looking at the curtain every now and then when he wasn’t reading stuff on his phone.

Soon enough you heard your friends appear, greeting Junmyeon before they vanished into a room as well. You called out to them, asking what they found. You listened intently to their answers while wriggling yourself into the new clothes.

“What about you?” One of your friends called and you stilled. You stared at the rather revealing outfit and then at your reflection in the mirror, gnawing at your lower lip.

“Just some shirts and a few pants”, you answered, hoping they wouldn’t catch on the nervous lilt in your voice.

Thankfully they didn’t and continued chatting about all the opportunities to wear the new clothes.

You peaked out of the curtain, eyes quickly scanning the area before they locked onto Junmyeon. You waved your hand to grab his attention, almost sighing in relief when he looked up. You quietly mouthed at him to come into the changing room with you.

With an raised eyebrow, Junmyeon pushed himself up from the stool and walked over to the curtain separating the both of you. He was about to ask you what was wrong, when you grabbed his arm and pulled him inside.

“What do you think?” You stepped back in the limited space and presented the outfit you were wearing, once again gnawing at your lower lip nervously.

“It looks good”, Junmyeon answered in a whisper, copying your choice of volume. He eyed your form once again, nodding while doing so. “I like it.”

“I don’t think I can show it to the others though.”

“Why not?”

You shrugged with your shoulders. “I don’t know. It’s not what I’m usually wearing.”

“If you’re not comfortable wearing this you don’t have to buy it.”

“No, it’s not that”, you quickly assured Junmyeon, “It’s just that I already know they’re going to tease me about it.”

Junmyeon tilted his head with curiosity. “Why would they do that? I’m not teasing you despite seeing you in it.”

You grimaced before shaking your head. “It’s different”, you simply stated and motioned for him to leave the changing room again. When he opened the curtain to step out, you only caught a glimpse of one of your friends. Though that glimpse was more than enough for them to see your outfit and Junmyeon leaving your room.

You immediately wished the ground would swallow you whole but sadly it didn’t happen. So you decided to play it off, changing back into your outfit and pretending like nothing ever happened.

The situation got worse when you got to the register. Even though you didn’t want to buy that revealing outfit you still fell in love with some of the shirts you had found. All your friends had paid so far and when you stepped to the cashier, about to pay for your cute shirts, Junmyeon stepped in and handed the cashier his credit card.

Once again you brushed it off, thanking Junmyeon and thinking it was a one time thing.

After the third store you came to the conclusion it wasn’t. When you quietly asked him why he was paying for you, he only smiled and shrugged his shoulders, never giving you an explicit answer.

After the fifth store your friends started teasing you about it.

“Now I understand why you wanted him to join.”

“Must be nice to have someone pay for you.”

“Are you his sugar baby?”

“What kind of things are you doing for him to pay for all these clothes?”

“Letting him into the changing room”, your friend laughed and elbowed you, “giving him exclusive shows with outfits we’re not supposed to see.”

Immediately all of them squealed and giggled, ignoring your desperate tries to explain that you were simply friends. The irritation slowly bubbling inside of you when all your explanations fell on deaf ears.

At the seventh store your friends started flirting with Junmyeon.

“You can come into my changing room if you like.”

“I’ll give you a private show too.”

“You can choose some underwear if you want to.”

Every time they attempted to flirt with him, Junmyeon declined politely, keeping his distance from your friends. If he didn’t feel uncomfortable, you most certainly did. Your last thread of patience snapped when one of your friends came out of a changing room in nothing but underwear, clinging onto Junmyeon and asking him if he liked it.

“It seems to suit you”, he answered shortly, averting his eyes.

“Would you buy it for me?”

You were about to explode when Junmyeon spoke up again. “No.” With that he pushed your friend gently but firmly away from him and walked over to you. He grabbed your hands and squeezed them gently, before he looked over his shoulder to your friends, who either stood outside the changing rooms or peaked their heads through the curtains. “I only pay for Y/N.” He smirks at their flabbergasted expressions and turns to look back at you. “Because I want to spend everything I have on you.”

Your eyes widened in surprise, never having even imagined to hear such a confession from your best friend. You never dared to even dream of this, too afraid to ruin the friendship the both of you shared.

“This might be a little over the top”, Junmyeon mumbled, scratching the back of his neck with a nervous chuckle, “but are you willing to spend the rest of your life with me? As your boyfriend and lover for now?”

“And my fiancé and husband later on?” Even after you asked him, your mouth stayed agape as you were totally in awe. Never before had someone said something this romantic to you. Never before did you feel the butterflies do somersaults inside your stomach this strongly. And all you could do was nod over and over again, your lips stretching into a wide smile.

Your friends were forgotten the moment Junmyeon snaked his arms around your middle and pulled you against his body, kissing you deeply. You couldn’t care less though, after all you spent more than enough time with them for today.

Now you simply wanted to spend your time with Junmyeon, igniting the love for him with every kiss you two shared.
