Entertaiment Industry: Behind The Script

"I told you before, nobody wants to read your script. Even if you pretend to faint it won't help."

"If you understand, then hurry up and get out of here."

"Why are you still here? Why won't you leave?"

Im Giseok felt a sharp pain in his head, and his vision started to blur.

After a long while, he finally managed to stand up steadily.

He looked around at the crowded lobby with a dazed expression.

The surroundings seemed familiar to Im Giseok.

On the big screen, there were currently playing a TV show trailers.

For someone like Im Giseok, who often visited TV stations, this scene was all too familiar.

But this wasn't a TV station he had ever been to.

Anyone would feel shocked if, one second they were hit by a car, and the next, they found themselves in a completely unfamiliar building.

Yet Im Giseok was surprisingly calm.

"Do I have to say it again? Take your lousy script and get out of here! No one wants to read it!"

The man in front of him, seeing Im Giseok standing still, grew even more annoyed and forcefully shoved Im Giseok away.

At that moment, Im Giseok heard the most unbelievable thing he had ever heard in his life — that no one wanted to read his script.

As a top screenwriter in the entertainment industry, Im Giseok has produced a dozen hit shows.

Even just having his name attached to a project would bring great benefits to the production team.

Except for his first two years in the business, Im Giseok had never heard anyone dare to speak to him like this in a long time.

As Im Giseok was thinking about his current situation, another unfamiliar face came up and patted him on the shoulder.

"Think about the ratings for <<Fate's Fickle Flame>>. Im Giseok, you should switch careers while you still can."

The person's eyes showed both pity and mockery and at the same time, the passersby glanced at Im Giseok with sympathy.

<<Fate's Fickle Flame>> words seemed like a special trigger word for him.

In that instant, Im Giseok's mind was filled with many memories that didn't belong to him.

...

Im Giseok had indeed transmigrated into another world— into the body of a part time screenwriter who has the same name as him.

Unlike the entertainment industry in the world where Im Giseok came from, in this world, the screenwriters had much more influence than he thought.

Before a TV series even began the production, the audience cared more about the team of screenwriters than the actors.

A talented screenwriter could earn as much as an actor and even get a share of the show's profits.

They could even have the first pick of the actors.

With so much money at stake, many young people chose to become screenwriters.

The admission scores for the screenwriting major were much higher than those for other majors at the same school.

The media often exaggerated with stories like "A New Screenwriter Becomes Famous Overnight."
