Chapter 43

Actor Min Seo-ho who played the lead role of Bae Seong-hak left the show quickly.

At a time when the issue had not yet erupted I wondered if they would even ask him to leave but it seems that the production team including Jo Do-yul decided to hire another actor.

“It seems like there are too many people involved.”

“Even if just one person rushes into this….”

Perhaps there was an argument going on in my absence.

A little more than a month until the start of the play.

The only time to decide was now.

‘Generally the preparation period for a play is between one and a half to three months.’

That is the standard period is 6 to 12 weeks.

Anything more than that is too long and anything less is too short.

Therefore it is not that difficult to drop an actor when practice has not yet started.

Of course assuming that there is a new actor joining the play.

“…This is Shim Cheong-seok.”

And Jo Do-yul quickly found an actor who was perfect for the role of Bae Seong-hak.

Shim Cheong-seok.

A man who has already played the lead role in several plays in Jongno.

“Is Mr. Cheongseok coming?”

“Isn’t this your first time acting in a romance? “I’m really looking forward to it.”

When he first appeared at the gathering where all the actors were gathered the staff members screamed.

Seoyeon looked at him intently and gently tilted her head.

‘He certainly looks handsome.’

However I don’t know if it would go well with ‘Close Your Eyes’.

Min Seo-ho who previously played the role of Bae Seong-hak was what is commonly called a refreshing handsome man.

To be honest it doesn’t give the impression of walking on five legs.

Just looking at his appearance he is a pure and innocent young man.

‘So even Sword Master Pyo didn’t know.’

Even if he had known he would have thought he was mistaken.

Didn’t someone say that?

Longing is the emotion furthest from understanding….

“Then let’s briefly say hello to each other today. “You know that practice starts tomorrow right?”

It was stage director Lee Hyeong-hak who said that.

He smiled with a kind face and gestured to the actors gathered today.

The number is fifteen.

There are three main characters and two multi-actors so the number is considerable.

‘This child…’

‘Isn’t that the kid who came out in the previous month?’

And among the assembled actors it was Seoyeon who received the most attention.

It’s natural.

A child actor who suddenly disappeared 10 years ago.

Because I never imagined that she would show up in a situation like this.

The most burdensome thing was the two actresses who played the same Hong Jeong-hee role.

Since I already saw the audition video it was inevitable that I would compare.

‘Is that the one over there?’

Aren’t you too pretty to play Hong Jeong-hee?

Both of them were confident in their looks as actors but Seo-yeon seemed to go the other way.

Plus presence.

Even when I met several actors in Jongno I clearly felt a presence that I had never felt before.

A child who won the Youth Actor Award at a young age.

It is absolutely no lie that she has the qualities of a top actress.

‘Why is this kid here?’

Aside from being a burden it was something that raised questions.

Why did Seoyeon come to audition for this play?

Even though it’s been a while since she returned there would have been better places for her if she wanted to right?

Amid such questions all eyes focused on Seoyeon.

“Hmm.”

Someone let out a small cough.

“Hello I had a good time at the audition. This is Park Hee-jun who plays the role of Bae Seong-hak. Please take care of your role as Hong Jeong-hee.”

The first person to greet Seo-yeon was Park Hee-jun who plays Bae Seong-hak.

He was also the oldest person here and an experienced actor who had been active in Jongno for a long time.

“Should I really call you senior? Seoyeon if you think about her debut year….”

“You can call me as you please.”

“Ah are you still okay? “Then I will do it.”

No matter how long she has been acting there is no one who debuted as an actress earlier than Seo-yeon.

Even though the drama version and the theater version are different there’s no way she’ll stay in one place right?

For actors with a bright future it is a good idea to make a mark in advance.

“Mr. Cheongseok are you saying hello too? “We are going to be working on the same part.”

Shim Cheong-seok slowly nodded as Park Hee-jun spoke jokingly.

Seo-yeon looked at him like that and thought funny enough ‘Isn’t he a little young?’

“Please take care of me.”

That was the end.

He is speechless and has a stiff look.

That was Seo-yeon’s first impression of Shim Cheong-seok.

***

Basically practice three hours a day. 

Of course I had no choice but to skip part of the afternoon classes.

“I got permission from the teacher.”

When I said V- with her finger Ji-yeon Lee said as if it was absurd.

“No when I spoke I dragged it out like that.”

“You actually like it?”

“I feel really unfair. “One true hit is so important.”

Jiyeon Lee mumbled as she said those words.

But no matter what she said Jiyeon Lee was the pride of Yeonhwa High School.

The presence of celebrities is a huge help in publicity at these private high schools so Ji-yeon Lee who recently appeared in a cable drama was one of the most important characters at the school in that sense.

‘Actually it was thanks to Lee Ji-yeon that I got permission so quickly.’

As Lee Ji-yeon’s performance gained a lot of publicity the school also tried to actively support my entertainment industry activities.

But I didn’t bother to say it.

Because it was clear that if I said it I would feel elated.

“really.”

At that time Jiyeon Lee seemed to have remembered something and took out her smart phone.

“why?”

“Do you know this?”

Let’s look at the smartphone screen to see what I’m talking about.

-Wow wow? Did you just see it? That guy is almost flying?

(loud noise)

-Ah~ Is that because she’s a high school girl? That 1 tank 3 high school girls thing?

It was a video of someone who appeared to be a YouTube streamer.

The video wasn’t long.

Approximately 1 minute. 

The problem was the two characters who appeared there.

The quality of the image is not good so you can’t see her clearly but she is a high school girl with long black hair.

And she saw a woman being dragged halfway by the high school girl’s hand.

-I thought you were surprised because the club guard approached you so scaryly. Is this a person flying?

-Oh I looked this way. This way. I’m going to stand out a little too.

Looking at the comments on YouTube there was a lot of talk.

There is also a saying that it is manipulation.

There were many people asking why they bothered to manipulate something like this.

From the beginning it was clear that if something like this was manipulated there would be a complaint from the club.

-I am a current fitness trainer. Based on her size she appears to be a high school girl weighing around 50kg which is impossible. The difference in weight classes is ridiculous.

ㄴThat’s all cancer even if you’re not a current trainer;;

I’m a high school girl and that’s the norm these days.

ㄴ Yes -> Yes

Afterwards many opinions were exchanged.

In general “It makes no sense” was the most recommended.

The YouTuber was saying that it was unfair but not many people believed it.

“Is this you?”

“….”

“Don’t avoid my gaze Joo Seo-yeon. “That’s what she said before.”

Jiyeon Lee soon put her smart phone in her pocket and clicked her tongue.

“I heard she hid well and took pictures. She made her return to YouTube sooner than to theater. “Did you know that this person has over 500000 subscribers and is quite well-known?”

“I don’t know.”

I felt aggrieved by Jiyeon Lee’s words.

How would you know who would be taking pictures in that situation?

She was ‘hidden well in her alley.’

She obviously didn’t feel any attention but she had no idea that she would be filmed by a YouTuber.

Still looking at the video it doesn’t seem like many people noticed.

If there was a big uproar Min Seo-ho would have known.

“Hmm.”

Jiyeon Lee looked at me intently.

Her eyes looked as if she was going through some trouble somewhere he wasn’t looking.

“Just in case you haven’t met this woman since then have you?”

“huh.”

“Then that’s enough. “Be careful because it won’t do any good for her to get involved with a dangerous person.”

When I hear her speak her mother is gone.

Thinking like that made her a little anxious.

When she said she was her mother she suddenly remembered her real mother.

‘Doesn’t she see her mother too?’

Seo-yeon’s mother Su-a enjoyed watching YouTubers.

So she might see it if it became a hot topic.

If you see it it won’t end with nagging you for an hour or two.

Just imagining it made her body tremble.

“Joo Seo-yeon.”

“huh?”

“It’s the promise you said before.”

The promise you mentioned before?

When I thought about what it meant I could barely come up with it.

“Oh are you coming to my house?”

“okay. “It’s going to be difficult for a while once you start playing. Are you okay this week?”

“huh.”

Practice started today but this week should be okay.

Because her parents also said that they were going shopping with her younger brother that day.

‘That day… I’ll do my best.’

I glanced at Jiyeon Lee.

It was fortunate that things worked out well.

Still she wanted to do it at least as a hobby.

***

“Well we’re starting in earnest today so let’s all do our best.”

Practice for the play started when afternoon classes were over.

So if I rushed a little I was able to get to the basics and arrive at practice on time.

Of course if I go to a performance I’ll have to miss some classes but that’s just for that time.

‘Joo Seo-yeon.’

The assistant director is mainly responsible for acting guidance in plays.

Assistant director Kim Cheong-woon narrowed his eyes at Seo-yeon a high school girl who arrived late.

‘Is it okay? ‘I think her acting skills are definitely there.

I felt a little uneasy.

The audition was great.

Since he was there she was able to fully understand that Seo-yeon passed the role of ‘Hong Jeong-hee’.

‘Because that and humanity are different.’

A talented child actor.

Considering that I was still a teenager I felt anxious in many ways.

Even though I’ve passed puberty I still have a lot of emotional parts left.

“First of all let’s take a look at Bae Seong-hak’s acting and then we’ll look at Cheong-seok and Seo-yeon’s chemistry. “Are you okay?”

“yes.”

I heard short answers.

Shim Cheong-seok and Joo Seo-yeon.

Both of them rarely changed their facial expressions and expressed their emotions faintly.

‘Oh my gosh it’s a goal.’

I thought that many of the actors in this part were particularly blunt.

Is this really okay?

That’s what I think.

But Seoyeon actually had no thoughts.

She doesn’t have to say much so she feels rather comfortable.

Moreover Seoyeon was deep in thought right now.

‘If it’s Shim Cheong-seok….’

Seoyeon narrowed her eyes as she watched Shim Cheong-seok unwinding her body.

From the first time I saw her I had a feeling I had seen her before.

But when I looked closely it turned out to be someone Seoyeon knew.

‘Definitely… a character who later became a hot topic in OTT dramas.’

Her outstanding acting skills.

Plus a handsome face. She is a person who suddenly rose to stardom.

But Seoyeon remembered him for another reason.

This is because he was an unfortunate actor who passed away right before the last episode while filming the drama.

A word from the author (author review)

It hasn’t been released yet so it’s being released in real time…

I almost was late today too…

And I recycled the previous notice and posted Seoyeon’s concept AI illustration.
