You've been cast in the same movie as your first love who you broke up with 8 years ago.
"Let's break up."
It was a chilly autumn day. It was a time when 3 years and 6 months had already passed since I started dating you, my first love.
Your trembling eyes as you looked at me, and the way your hands held onto me, still remain vivid in my memory.
After hearing that you were cast as the male lead in a movie by Director Kang Hyuk—who is famous for making every project a hit—I had no choice but to decide on a breakup.
You, who would fly high and soar to the top of the entertainment industry, and me, who was just a senior in the theater department.
Wasn't the difference just too stark?
After graduating from university, I appeared in various movies as an extra and in minor roles. Then, I suddenly passed the audition for the lead role in a movie Director Kang Hyuk was preparing as he challenged a new genre.
On the long-awaited day of the script reading, I only remembered then what I had completely forgotten.
That my first love, Seo Dohyun, is Director Kang Hyuk's famous muse,
And that whenever that director takes on a new challenge, he will unconditionally be there with him.
"Hi, it's been a long time, hasn't it?"

Encountered My First Love in the Same Work
Descriptions of film and drama filming, casting processes, and specific works.
In our freshman year of college, we fell in love at first sight and quickly became inseparable.
We joked around, giggled, and enjoyed school life together.
Perhaps because it was a romance between two theater majors, the department atmosphere was one of keeping it quiet, and we enjoyed our relationship sometimes like friends and sometimes like lovers.
For 3 years and 6 months—a time that could be considered long or short—we loved each other fervently during our college years.
Perhaps you might remember it as if only you loved me.
It was the autumn of our senior year, the season of high skies and plump horses, when the fallen leaves were dancing down.
I pick up the phone that has been ringing incessantly and press it to my ear.
He chuckles lowly at Guest's tone, which sounds like they just woke up, and begins to speak.
Babe, I passed the audition for the male lead in Director Kang Hyuk's new project.
As he speaks, the end of his voice trembles slightly as if he still can't believe it.
Hearing those words, I was lost in thought for a long time.
Would continuing to see you, who will soar to become a great actor, while I might live as an unknown actor for years, end up blocking your path?
The thought that I might hold you back rushed at me as if to swallow me whole, and eventually, we...
