Day one on the Job

The Diva's Assistant

What’s even going on?

 

 

Minjeong can’t really tell you right now.

 

 

Standing in front of a woman she’s only ever seen from the big screen

 

 

She couldn't help but question the reality of it all.

 

 

From today onwards, was she really going to be working for the woman staring back at her with the most nonchalant expression she's ever seen?

 

 

It wasn’t a job Minjeong was meant to take nor was she meant to receive.

 

 

She was only the errand girl afterall

 

 

Setting things up, grabbing orders and following orders... but most importantly, finish what you need to do before the big leagues arrive.

 

 

That was her job.

 

 

It used to be clear and simple.

 

 

Help out the movie set without ever interacting with the stars of the show.

 

 

Heck she’s never even met any directors or other onset staff in person before.

 

 

She’s a small fry within the movie industry.

 

 

So why is it right now.

 

 

She Kim Minjeong, is standing in front of one of the world’s greatest actress of all time?

 

 

“So you’re my new assistant correct?”

 

 

Blinking a few times, Minjeong’s head went into scrambles “oh-oh” before she quickly bowed her head, never thinking in her life she would be standing under such an aura “It’s nice to meet you Jimin, my name is Kim Minjeong, I will be your new manager actually- but- uh

 

 

Damnit Minjeong stop stuttering 

 

 

“Assistant works too I suppose” the blonde rambled on, an old habit of hers whenever she feels nervous “It’s great to finally meet you in person-”

 

 

“Yep yep” the actress in front of her interrupts her before walking past, not even pretending to want to give the shorter woman her time of day “you’re late”

 

...

 

“Actually I’m 3 minutes early-“

 

 

“Do you have my coffee order?”

 

 

What?

 

 

“Apologies I wasn’t aware you wanted coffee, what did you want to order-“

 

 

“I’m expected to film in 30 minutes, how do you expect me to do my job without my usual coffee?” The taller of the two finally turns around revealing a sneer she had on her face “please hurry and go grab my usual”

 

 

Stunned by the other’s antics, Minjeong felt her cheeks burn, half from her anxiety picking up but also half because the attitude of her new boss is starting to piss her off. 

 

 

She bit her tongue.

 

 

“And what would that order be?”

 

 

“2/3 caff triple ristretto affogato venti, 2 pump mango 1 pump classic, 2%, mango to the second line, 3 scoops protein, 3 scoops berries, 2 scoop matcha, add banana, double blended, with whip, caramel drizzle, salted caramel topping, vanilla bean frappuccino.”

 

The actress said that in the most monotoned voice the shorter had ever heard in her life, before turning around once more and seemingly begins to walk away.

 

 

“Wa- wait!” Minjeong chases after her, “let me write it down first so-“

 

 

“Five rules” the actress interrupts her manager again and glares at her.

 

 

“What?”

 

 

“I have five rules” the taller continues. Holding up her fingers in front of Minjeong's face to emphasise the number

 

“1. Never talk, call or text me more than necessary.

 

2 . You may walk behind me or beside me but never in front of me. Preferably stay behind me.

 

3. Don't touch me.

 

4. Always be 5 minute early for my schedule, or you're considered late

 

And 5. ” Minjeong watched the side of the woman’s cheek twitch as she continued 

 

“Never make me say something I already said twice. As my assistant I expect you to capture everything once and only once.”

 

 

 

 

 

“I’m your manager-“

 

 

“I’ll be getting my makeup touched up” ignoring the younger the woman continues to walk off, leaving a dumbfounded Minjeong puzzling through her memories in hopes she would be able to remember the most obscene order she’s ever heard of in her life.

Yu Jimin,

 

Age: 24

 

One of the most sought out actress in the world at the moment, was what everyone liked to call a woman of her time.

 

She’s charming, vibrant and absolutely drop dead gorgeous

 

So gorgeous in fact, people typically can’t believe her beauty is that of human, commonly referring her to an AI instead.

 

Starting off as just an extra on screen, it was no surprise her beauty was what caught everyone’s attention from the very beginning.

 

Countless articles were made the moment her face appeared…

 

It didn't take long before it felt like everyone only had one common name floating on the surface of their lips

 

Yu Jimin

 

She definitely garnered a lot of popularity from the beginning

 

It was a fame like no other, quite literally happening overnight...

 

and it was that very popularity that allowed the woman to transform from an extra, to a supporting role and finally securing the main roles for countless movies and dramas.

 

Now Yu Jimin may be beautiful.

 

She may be extrememly gorgeous.

 

Especially with that smile she puts on for the cameras...

 

But within the industry.

 

If there’s one thing everyone knows as a fact... it’s that Yu Jimin, the most beautiful actress of her time…

 

Is a straight up

 

Drop 

 

Dead

 

Diva.

 

A DDD if you will, is what Minjeong calls it in her head.

 

 

Only being in the industry for a couple of years now, the A-lister has literally gone through dozens DOZENS of her management staff with 90% of them quitting on the spot in a

Chapter 35: Despite the heart breaks and pains Jimin caused to Minjeong, she still loves her and care for her. I hope Jimin gets the courage she needs to apologize and tell Minjeong what she truly feels. 😞

Chapter 35: Chapter 35: Chapter 35: i'm surprised that i actually liked jihoon's character. not to say that i condone his selfish , but he's very real, humane, and greedy. they're in a cut-throat industry after all and to be linked to any kind of scandal could potentially jeopardize his entire career. i'm thankful that he somehow got to knock some sense onto minjeong even if it's for the wrong reasons. minjeong still obviously loves jimin. to pause her own healing just so she could be there for her. coming back. that action alone shows how dedicated and willing minjeong is to do everything for jimin and i hope the actress learns to see that and trusts her manager more. i believe that's minjeong already doing her part too and jimin, you know it's your turn to meet your partner halfway. jimin still hasn't really processed anything yet. that's why she's still lashing out and i hope she lets minjeong be for now which i'm sure she'll do because she's a masochist and a coward like that lol but i hope she takes time to think everything through. she's in pain but i know she's a strong person too, just like minjeong. they'll both heal and get through this together. just communicate with each other. i beg. thank you so much for the update! i get very excited when i see your notif hehe :]

Chapter 35: i need jiminjeong back 😭 pleaseee authornim

but i was quite annoyed with jihoon’s selfish behaviour actually. i was glad that he didn’t have any true feeling for jimin but i was annoyed that he actually taking advantage of jimin’s popularity to climb up his name 🙄 even though he make minjeong to come back but still if the fake dating were on the exact period that they planned, at least jmj didn’t get this much heartbreak. but then this pain might bring jmj closer (even though they are) with each other more than before.

and i hope minjeong did not really leave jimin because i know jimin’s hurts her but i kinda want her to see jimin’s condition at the end of this chapter. nevertheless, it was hurtfull though reading their heartbreak journey. thanks authornim for the update
