Chapter 21
‘I’m bored.’
Is it because I was very busy filming dramas and other things for a while?
I spent most of my time lounging around after going to kindergarten.
Smoke is also prohibited for the time being.
To be precise I was discussing this matter with my mother in many ways.
“I ended up hurting my hand….”
I got injured in one way or another while acting and blood was dripping down during filming.
I guess my mom was very upset to see me like that.
So my mom gave me this request.
“Deep emotional acting is prohibited for the time being. “You can’t even practice.”
It meant that Seoyeon should be a little bigger.
Since it was a child role they didn’t ask for that much in the first place and the acting he had done so far was at a sufficiently great level.
“Hmmmm….”
I feel flabby and lean against the giant Piniping doll I bought this time.
The advantage of a child’s body is that it is suitable for climbing on a huge doll and shaking its body.
If it had been me in my past life it would have been a terrible and grotesque sight but I’m fine now.
7-year-old Joo Seoyeon is so cute!
So there was no shame at all.
anyway.
‘I should learn how to act more properly.’
Actually there were many things I wanted to do.
What I felt while filming this drama was that I am still lacking in many ways.
I forgot about it because everyone applauded me saying it was great but I was always pointed out that it was technically lacking.
The reason it wasn’t obvious was that Lee Hye-wol’s status was a princess in the first place so she didn’t need a lot of colorful acting.
If it were a serial drama like a daily drama where I had to face various situations my flaws would have been immediately apparent.
“And vocalization….”
As I was thinking about that Jiyeon Lee suddenly came to mind.
Galaxy Enter where Lee Ji-yeon belongs.
I couldn’t remember exactly but it was a place where there was controversy in many ways.
Although it is said to be an entertainment agency Eunha Entertainment is actually an agency.
Of course I am not saying that agencies are bad.
Rather there were many comfortable parts.
The main job of the agency was to connect and care for actors in various dramas and advertisements.
‘In general actors and child actors usually belong to professional agencies…’
However in the case of child actors there are cases where they look for agencies rather than professional agencies.
This is because if a child grows up and changes career path while still young and stops activities a dispute may arise with the agency.
Although it is such a convenient agency it is not necessarily convenient.
Because there are bad guys everywhere.
‘It was probably embezzlement.’
This is why Eunha Enter became a problem.
I remember that they did not pay the filming fees to the actors who filmed commercials or commercials and just jumped out at them…
Of course it’s not accurate.
The important thing is that even if Eunha Entertainment is normal now it won’t be long before it embezzles the actors’ income and disappears.
The reason why I thought of this in ‘vocalization’ is because this issue arose because I participated as a voice actor in a certain animation film for child actors.
There was controversy over using a child actor who was not a professional voice actor as a voice actor in an animation.
In addition the internet was in an uproar because they did not pay the filming fee they received to the child actor.
Controversy over disparaging voice actors.
Controversy over mistreatment of child actors non-payment of filming fees.
In the midst of such a storm of controversy Eunha Entertainment disappeared.
“Umm….”
But a child actor as a voice actor?
Besides Lee Ji-yeon how many child actors are there in Eunha Entertainment?
Probably not much.
There would be no child there who would receive all the work that came his way.
“no way.”
Jiyeon Lee Were you a party to that controversy?

“My pretty daughter! PD Ha contacted me….”
Su-ah who had just heard the news over the phone opened the door to Seo-yeon’s room where she was resting right now.
Then the sight of Seoyeon riding on top of the Piniping doll and hanging out like a sloth came into view.
This is a rare display of laziness from my daughter who has always been doing various things.
No she’s still seven years old so isn’t that enough to call her lazy?
“Why Mom?”
“Oh yeah. “That’s what PD Ha contacted me about.”
Anyway since this incident was not related to acting Su-ah willingly told Seo-yeon the story she had received today.
That’s right.
“Drama promotion… are you talking about?”
“Yes yes that’s right. As you know the making video attracted a lot of attention right?”
It wasn’t just a collection it almost doubled the viewership ratings of the live entertainment broadcast.
Thanks to this Seoyeon’s popularity rose to a certain level among her child roles.
Of course it was nothing compared to Jo Seo-hee or other child actors but I thought it was only a matter of time.
“As you know the highlights of episodes 2 and 3 were chosen very well right?”
“Even though I don’t know much about your acting I saw it that way.”
“Is that so? Plus Seoyeon’s appearance is so striking that I thought it would be perfect for publicity.”
So she thought she would make a little impression in advance.
The drama itself was about halfway filmed.
In other words it was scheduled to start airing in the next three months.
So we had to make a promotional schedule in advance.
Producer Ha Tae-oh shared the contents with Su-ah.
“I really wish Seoyeon would attend.”
“Are you sure?”
“yes. I think Seoyeon will have a significant presence in this drama. “In just three episodes.”
Ha Teo recalled a video he saw a few days ago.
Two scenes.
Two performances with opposite sensibilities captured by Seo-yeon.
That intensity has been eye-catching so far.
‘That kid isn’t just talented.’
Actress Jeong Eun-seon later said:
He said that it was not just acting based on talent.
He said it was clear from the scars on his hands that he had already had a lot of practice to represent the scene.
‘What if a genius puts in the effort to do this?’
Although he felt that way there was only a fresh smile on Ha Teo’s lips.
That genius is our genius. How reassuring is that?
“Oh and publicity isn’t all that great. “It’s similar to a pre-teaser event for a drama that is shown to the public.”
Of course I didn’t mean to force it.
Because I was planning to proceed under the premise that Seoyeon wanted it.
Of course that’s what it says.
Ha Tae-oh gently urged Su-ah to ask Seo-yeon to participate.
And the result.
Su-ah has been relaying Ha Tae-o’s words to Seo-yeon as she is doing now.
“Is this a pre-teaser event…?”
“Yes I heard that Actress Ha Ye-seo who plays the role of ‘Grown Lee Hye-wol’ is also coming!”
Ha Ye-seo. She is the main character in name and reality playing the role of the grown-up Lee Hye-wol.
Not to mention her face she was an actress with a pretty and innocent appearance.
‘Kang Seong-chan who played the role of Yoon Seo-il grew into an actor Ha Ye-seo.’
And it is said that the event will be held together with the two supporting actors and Seo-yeon.
The location is in front of Goex’s Vegabox.
‘Why me there?’
If you’re going to promote a child actor wouldn’t it be better for Park Jung-woo than Seo-yeon herself?
I had that question but I guess he had something in mind.
And honestly.
‘My acting was better until episode 3.’
Seoyeon crossed her arms and shook her head.
Yes this is a simple effect.
It is true that Seo-yeon’s acting in episodes 2 and 3 of Taesumdal was overwhelming.
Well of course.
“But if I participate in that event is there an appearance fee or something?”
“huh? Oh yeah. “I heard you’ll take care of it so you don’t get upset?”
“Then I will do it.”
Su-ah felt very strange seeing her daughter coolly agreeing to give her money.
She wonders if she has been living in such poverty that her daughter feels like she has no money.
Or maybe the people she hangs out with are all flashy so she wants to follow suit.
Anyway the feelings of a new mother were complicated in many ways.
“Truly Mom.”
“huh?”
“Well there’s one thing I’d like to ask you….”
But Seoyeon said those words and twisted her body.
An attitude of hesitation as to whether it would be okay to say something.
This was Su-ah’s first time seeing her daughter!
My daughter who had been an adult ever since she was young has never asked Su-ah for anything.
Even that is mostly insignificant.
She said a few things about this acting but she didn’t have anything to ask for.
At that time most of what Su-ah did was just watch.
“Yes Seoyeon. Her mom will help you!”
“Really?”
“huh!”
So Su-ah burning with motivation answered willingly.
She continued never dreaming what kind of favor her daughter would ask.

“Hey look at that person.”
“Well I heard that Kang Seong-chan and Ha Ye-seo are coming to the event. Isn’t this normal?”
Entertainment reporter Lee Byung-hoon said those words and fiddled with the camera.
Because there were so many people I was worried that I might accidentally bump into it and break it.
“Reporters are very interested. “Look at me not only are people busy but reporters are also very busy.”
“It must be very difficult to get an interview with actor Kang Seong-chan.”
The reporters gathered here were probably there to interview the drama’s leads Kang Seong-chan or Ha Ye-seo.
Aside from the spectacular release of the making video there has been no separate publicity from the actors since then.
This is my first time.
That’s how important it was to the reporters to get an interview with the lead actor.
As we were talking like that we heard people screaming and a gap was created for a few people to pass through.
“Oh there it comes. Hey~. As expected since the clothes are washed well the hanbok is also very simple…”
Kang Seong-chan as Yoon Seo-il.
That bright mask and fresh smile.
In addition his intelligent eyes were a perfect fit for Yoon Seo-il in the story.
Also what about Ha Ye-seo played by Lee Hye-wol?
Her innocent appearance is just like a heavenly princess.
In fact since she is the main character of Taesumdal the success of this drama had to be seen as depending on her acting.
‘And let’s see….’
Lee Byung-woon looked at the list of actors who participated in today’s event wondering who else had come.
If you fail to interview for the lead role these are actors worth targeting for supporting roles.
‘But this is a bit tasteless.’
Is there anything good?
As I was thinking that I saw a small girl walking away holding the hand of the actress who played Lee Hye-wol’s nanny.
The person who created a hot topic in the making film.
It was Joo Seo-yeon the younger version of young Lee Hye-wol.
‘He came too?’
Lee Byung-hoon picked up the camera and took a picture of Joo Seo-yeon walking.
Because he was a child I had been interested in for a long time.
‘huh?’
Then Byung-hoon Lee suddenly realized that he was the only one who had just taken a picture of Seo-yeon.
Because it was the moment when all the other reporters were filming Kang Seong-chan and Ha Ye-seo.
Because it was such a hot topic reporters belatedly filmed Seo-yeon again and again.
Compared to Kang Seong-chan or Ha Ye-seo it was not enough.
It’s natural.
Not only was Seoyeon not a famous child actress to begin with but she was only scheduled to appear in three episodes.
Currently Seoyeon is an ordinary child role with a bit of buzz.
It was still only known that way.
