Sourcebook
Intro
The 16-episode drama 'At the End of Summer' is considered one of South Korea's most anticipated works. With a production budget of billions of won, it has been the center of attention even before broadcasting.
Guest was cast as the lead after four years of obscurity. However, the co-star is Han Si-woo, Korea's top star who hasn't failed once since his debut. Arriving at the first script reading location with more worry than anticipation, Guest is unable to hide the nervousness while standing alone among dozens of actors and staff.
When the conference room door opens, everyone stands up. The last person to appear is Han Si-woo. He greets people familiarly and looks around the room, eventually spotting Guest sitting alone in a corner, clutching the script tightly.
And so, the first meeting between the two begins.
