The Rise Of Park Yejoon

After getting his confidence back, he hugged his mother tightly and reminded her of how much he loved her. She, of course, started rubbing her cheeks against his and did not stop until people started glancing at them weirdly.

She planted an affectionate motherly kiss on his forehead and let him go.

Yejoon formally apologized to everyone and introduced himself once again yet this time with renewed vigor.

The shooting continued and everyone was awed at his change. His movements were no longer rigid and seemed forced. He looked like an innocent child his role was supposed to be.

The speed at which they were at before should not even be mentioned compared to this current pace. Yejoon flew through the scenes. Because of his 'sudden epiphany', people started getting excited and followed his flow. The ones who would be in the commercial were inspired by him and started performing even better.

People no longer communicated and a glance told each of them what to do. They were all connected.

People were no longer thinking 'What is this kid even doing?' but were now admiring and praising him. Yejoon being the polite boy he was, of course, thanked them all individually and this improved everyone's mood.

The shoot went by in a flash and one-fourth of the commercial had been finished. Of course, although this may not seem like a lot, the fact that they had been considerably slow at the beginning contributed a lot to the fact that more was not done. The shoots were not always perfect and someone would always inevitably make a mistake. By all means, everyone was satisfied. They all gained enlightenment in their profession and some even improved by leaps and bounds.

Yejoon was drinking from his water bottle while looking off into the distance. He was mentally exhausted from his mental breakdown and sudden overflow of confidence. This tired him significantly and having to act for hours more took a toll on his mental energy.

They were done shooting for the day as they could not start shooting a commercial that was supposed to be shown in the day at sunset. It would not make any sense at all.

Many people were now kind of familiar with Yejoon and many asked what was up with him in the morning if he was very skilled at acting.

Yejoon merely smiled and said something was bothering while quickly changing the subject to something the other was interested in to quickly divert the situation. Since they were asked of something they were passionate about, most did not even realize they had been veered to another train of thought.

Yejoon returned home with his mom who kept describing just how amazing he was. She looked happy throughout the whole car ride but after a while of happiness, her expression fell. The air temperature dropped by a few degrees and Yejoon felt an ominous feeling coming from her.

Eunjoon looked directly at his eyes and calmly stated,

"I repeat once again if you ever feel troubled, then come to me." She looked at him with serious eyes and Yejoon could only nod his head like a chicken before he received the wrath of the Lvl. 900 BOSS.

She smiled once again and kissed him tenderly on his forehead before rubbing her cheeks against his once again.

She absolutely could not have enough of him.

--------------------

Mingyu was sitting at his desk while looking in deep contemplation at the paper before his sight. An idea came to his head and as if a light bulb lit up above his head, his face lightened up and he wrote more words.

Yep. He was making his own song.

After seeing how his first best friend made a song only at 13 years old he decided he had to as well. He wanted to stand beside Yejoon and be treated, not as an overshadowed friend, but a brother of equal standing.

When he first saw Yejoon and Sanghoon, he immediately knew they would be brothers. It was as if something *cough* system* cough* attracted him to them, not in a romantic way, but in a friendly way.

He knew both were extremely talented and he would absolutely not fall behind.

He thought of more lines from his sudden burst of willingness and d.e.s.i.r.e.

His song was going great, the quality of it was tantamount to Yejoon's genius song. Mingyu was absolutely sure his song would also be a top hit. He was loved the same as Yejoon was as both appeared together practically every moment. They were both loved by the same audience and had different, unique, and special fans. Although Yejoon might seem a little more famous, that was because of his song and the fact he had a streaming channel.

Mingyu speculated he could always just pop up at his best friend's house if he ever started recording. Yea, they were literally family and did not have to notify each other when they would come to their house.

He continued writing and finally made his masterpiece.

Mingyu sang the lyrics while playing a simple chord progression that fits; he was pleased to hear his angelic voice go nicely with the song. His song was a positive song about loving yourself and your important to the world. He was sure people would go absolutely crazy with this one. Different to Yejoon though, instead of talking with the president face-to-face, he was impatient and emailed the president instead with audio of the song attached

He received good news shortly after from the president and was praised heavily by him. The president had the same thoughts as he had with Yejoon and informed the higher-ups of the new upcoming song.

The president of the singing section was all-smiles. He was given some points of contribution from Yejoon's feat and this thoroughly enraptured him; Mingyu now made an equally good song! He would definitely earn quite the recompenses through this endeavor; the thought made him beam uncontrollably.

An hour later, in many social media platforms, XXX released 10-second audio of Mingyu's new song. Exactly like what happened with Yejoon, the hype started building up. People had fallen in love with his angelic voice when he had sung in the concert with his best friend. Now, releasing audio with his lovely voice thrilled people to no end. They had loved Yejoon's *cough* Shawn Mendes's *cough* amazing song and expected the same quality from the one he was always with.

His phone soon started ringing and he received his friend's facetime call.

"Congratulations!" Yejoon yelled excitedly.

Mingyu returned with a hysterical, "I DID IT" and both laughed together like the kids they were.

It was currently evening and both had not eaten dinner yet. He received another incoming call from Sanghoon and they were now in a group call.

Sanghoon congratulated him and the trio talked carefreely.

They had agreed to go eat dinner together as none of them have yet. Their parents would eat with them and they believed it would be quite the night.

Meanwhile, Yejoon and his equally mischevious father were planning a prank for everyone.

Everyone apart from them had shivers up their spines.
