Kim Sunggyu

Acting Got Better

 

Kim Sunggyu is a mature man. He always feels responsible for whatever he do. That’s why when he did something, he will give his best. When his parents reject him from being an actor, he had swears that he will prove them wrong and be successful. He did prove them wrong the first time the drama he was acting in aired. He just acts as supporting role, but the netizens like his acting and that’s when his career developed to the whole new level.

That’s also the starting of his new life. Everyone keeps on saying that he is too serious for his age. When he worked hard to prove his family that he can be successful actors, he had abandon them thinking that there’s no use when they don’t even accept his ambition. He keeps on pushing himself and avoiding people surround him. Or so, until he found him.

The first time he meets Lee Sungyeol is on his first drama filming. He is twenty three years old model trying act for the first time to prove his family that he can achieve what he want. He gets a minor role acting as the younger version of the main character where he had to acts like a high school students and be playful. But Kim Sunggyu is everything but playful. He is too serious and the director keeps on shouting him to get his head straight. But he just can’t.

“Go and clear your head before you come here or get the hell out of here for all I care. We will take 30 minutes break and you better have your head straight!!” the director shout again and Sunggyu just keep on bowing to the staff for being a nuisance. 

He make his way towards the side of the building, contemplating of running away and look for other job that can help he make life. And maybe he had to keep on cutting his family away and never gets back. He had run away from his house after all. Perhaps they had already removed him from family registration. He chuckled in pain, tears couldn’t stop from running in his cheeks. He harshly wiped it and put his face on his arms while crouching. A few moments past and he suddenly felt some movement in his side but just brushed it as nothing until he heard some voice.

“Let’s see.. Rice,, uncooked ramen,, sushi,, kimchi,, wait, why did I bring kimchi in my bag again? Aww, my bag already reek of it.”

This person, he must be pouting right now. Gosh, must be one of the filming crew. Can’t he see I want to be alone? Sunggyu grumbled in his mind. Must someone be this dense? Gosh,.

“Choco—yess, chocolate!” the person piped in and then Sunggyu feel nudge in his shoulder. He just let it until the nudge become a shove and Sunggyu is ready to kill the insensitive person when his eyes land on a beautiful smile.

“I’m sorry, I just guess that you might be hungry. I used to get yelled when I’m hungry too.” The person grinned.

Sunggyu still had his ‘Who are you and what are you doing here’ in his face when he refuse the treat. “I’m not really hungry”.

“Seriously? Because I can see you hardly eat anything during lunch.”

“….”

“Sorry, I’m not a stalker or anything. I’m Lee Sungyeol. You might not see me there but I’m the supporting role for the drama you are filming right now.” the person-Lee Sungyeol grinned.

Of course, Sunggyu know him. He is one of rising actor right now and he had maybe starred in five dramas as supporting role and Sunggyu just want to start everything.

“Yeah, no.. I’m just nervous. I don’t think my stomach can accept anything.” he sighed deeply. “Or maybe my parents is right, I can’t act.. I’m at it. Maybe it’s a good thing that I don’t contact them. They might be embarrassed when they know I failed.”

The other gasped. Sunggyu started to hype out thinking he had tell too much to the stranger.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to..” he try to reason when the other cut him.

“It’s ok. I’d like to hear it. I read it’s better to tell your problem to stranger because you wouldn’t need to feel pressure. So, you can just tell it to me..” he grinned and Sunggyu couldn’t help but tell all the things he had been facing to the younger. Sungyeol is reacting to his stories as if he is the one who faced it. Sunggyu couldn’t help but fell thankful that he had let someone know his bottled up feelings.

You’re not fail hyung.. You’re just nervous. Also, I don’t think your parents will think so.” He started after Sunggyu had finished his story. Along the story, he had tell the boy his age..

“They will. They didn’t allow me to be an actor.”

“They must have their reason tho..” the boy said adorably. His chin tilted on other side and Sunggyu couldn’t help but smile.

“I don’t think so.” He trailed.

“That’s your problem hyung. Stop assuming things. You couldn’t just assume things on your own. You need to confront it.” he said enthusiastically and become shy when he realized Sunggyu is looking at him weirdly.

“You’re just too positive. I bet you have nothing on your way.”

“Am not!!!” Sungyeol piped before grow shy again.

“Why should you think negatively hyung? It’ll only hurt you. Also, why are you so serious? Be happy and live your life because you can only live once hyung. So brace it.” Sungyeol smiled his infamous gummy smile and Sunggyu now understand his friend why girls and boy of his age always swoon over Lee Sungyeol.

“I would hate have to acts all serious and mello to be honest..” he piped before keeps on talking about unimportant stuff about himself before the staff called him again and Sungyeol had to go for he had another schedule to attend.

Weirdly, Sunggyu is able to act the way the director want him to. At the end of the filming, the director even apologized for his harsh word, prised him for being professional and hoped to work with him in the future.

Sunggyu couldn’t help but feel thankful for the advice he gets from Sungyeol.

And that night, Sunggyu called his parents. The next day he went back home and met them ask they want him to. And then only he knows how much his parent had been waiting for him and always supporting him if the amount of magazine with Sunggyu as the model had anything to indicate it.

“Don’t I get any rest Dongwoo-yah?” Sunggyu pouted, earning him a chuckle from the shorter boy before him. It has been four years after his debut and Sunggyu is still on the top ranking for actors.

“I thought you want to work harder.” The other snickers.

“No.. I want to rest.. You had been taking every offer I got and I just want to rest and meet my family.. Please..” he pouted again. Dongwoo just scoffed.

“I’m taking everything because you’re going to have long holiday during new year hyung.. Also, you just have one more photography session for High-cut next Monday and that’s it. Your drama filming will finished tomorrow right?”

The elder nodded.

“There, you will have your rest next week. So, stop complaining.”

The manager brush past his older actor and start sorting all the paper he need to send to company tomorrow. He hoped Sunggyu will keep quiet and let him finished his work for once but the other is having none of it. He gently tugged Dongwoo’s sleeve and ask cautiously- rather hopeful.

“Will there be anyone with me in the photography session?”

Nod.

“Who is it?”
“People..”

“Who is the person? An actor? Actress? Idol? Who??” he impatiently tugged the other’s sleeve Dongwoo almost yelled at him to shut up. But when his eyes stop at the elder hopefully gaze, he just sigh deeply.

“I hate to tell you this knowing that you’ll not have enough sleep at all. But if you really want to know, the other will be Lee Sungyeol.” Sunggyu almost open his mouth when Dongwoo added. “And no, the photographer is not Kim Myungsoo..”

And Dongwoo swear he had never see Sunggyu shrieked like a banshee nor Sunggyu running away to his room with blushing face for almost ten years of knowing him. But still, he couldn’t help but let out a small smile. You’re too cute hyung-ah. 

 

 

In his room, Kim Sunggyu, a twenty seven years old grown up man is looking through his best outfit to be wear for the magazine shoot. He needs to make a good impression to the younger after all. Although the younger doesn’t seem to remember him the last time they met. He pouted at that. Well, maybe four years is too long it makes people forget you. Oh, don’t forget the facts that Sungyeol already had a boyfriend- a handsome one at that. Sunggyu’s pout intensify. That’s ok, as long as that’s not his husband.

And he grinned at that.
