S#31. Alley In Front Chicken House (Day)

-Hae Jun, who fought with Ji Won, finds someone in the alley.

-Delivery Boy tries to run away on a motorcycle but is caught by Hae Jun.

Hae Jun – (hand beckoning) Hey, delivery.

Delivery Boy – Aish, why’s it.

Hae Jun – Don’t you have anything to say to me.

Delivery Boy – What’s it.

It’s said to be a shoddy script, so there was no action description and no proper situation explanation. But it’s a role facing the main character nominally, shouldn’t the writer pay a little more attention to the minor role’s acting directions? Well, directing is the director’s business.

Ian thus created a new character. Delivery Boy’s name is Kim Tae Min. Why is he a delivery man when he’s still young. Because the family situation is not good.

Why does Delivery Boy avoid Hae Jun? He went to a juvenile detention center for committing a crime when he was young and it was set that Hae Jun was the one who put him directly.

Seeing that Hae Jun suddenly starts asking if there’s anything to say, it’s like treating Delivery Boy as a petty criminal. Adding theft to his crime.

Ian wore a vest handed over by the staff. The multi-pocket vest was engraved with a large delivery app mark. It was a PPL1 Product Placement. An advertising technique by inserting product/brand image as props in a movie/drama in return for sponsorship. It’s a pretty smart ad because it’s not annoying. as it was not covered with tape2 If it’s not sponsored, they should cover it. Sometimes they use fictitious names, but only on important things. separately.

Hae Jun – Haven’t you seen anyone suspicious while going around here. Someone with a scar on his neck.Neew updates at novel/bin(.)com

Delivery Boy – How do I know that. Just how many people I saw passing by.

Hae Jun – Hey, you have a good memory.

Smart enough for the detectives to catch him directly because of his good memory.

Hae Jun – (show the montage to Delivery Boy) Look at it well. It’s a guy with a scar like this on his neck, okay?

Delivery Boy – Ah, I’m busy.

Hae Jun – If you happen to see it while doing delivery, call me.

Delivery Boy is annoyed and takes Hae Jun’s business card.

The script ends here. Ian continued to wait and one more scene was filmed in the evening. Ian roughly ruffled his hair.

“‘Kay, let’s go right in!”

At Director Cha’s words, Ian handed the script to the manager. Park Dong Soo held out his fist while receiving the script, saying to do well. Ian smirked.

Holding props prepared in advance, he stood in front of the chicken house following the director’s instructions. The cue sign came and Ian carried the delivery bag then loaded it onto the motorcycle.

“Hey, delivery.”

“Aish, why’s it.”

Ian, no, currently fictional figure Kim Tae Min, looked back annoyed. Jo Min Hwan, in the form of a detective, approaches Ian.

“Don’t you have anything to say to me.”

“What’s it.”

Jo Min Hwan puts his face to Ian. He even sticks his body like a large detective giving pressure. The rebellious Delivery Boy lowers his eyes at the detective’s intense stare.

Ian added a line here.

“Wha... What’s it.”

The detective’s gaze staring intently as if he really found something. Wondering if the rookie had forgotten his lines due to repeated lines, the director was about to shout a cut.

“Agh... I really didn’t do anything!”

“Really?”

Jo Min Hwan responds as if he had been waiting. Director Cha’s eyes lit up. The camera director tactfully zooms in on their faces. Breathtaking atmosphere. Ian shouts here.

“Ah, I forgot one chicken leg! Is that such a big fault?!”

“I don’t know if it’s anything else, but chicken leg is a crime, you delivery beggar brat.”

Jo Min Hwan hits Ian in the back of his head. Ah shoot! Ian rubs the back of his head annoyed. “So... Am I being arrested?” he looks sharply and cowers his body. It was such a pathetic appearance.

“For now, if you contact this side...”

“You gave it to the company?”

Jo Min Hwan, who received Park Dong Soo’s business card, asked back. Ian also tilted his head. Is there a problem?

“I have to be first in music shows to get it back.”

“First on music shows? You’re not an actor?”

“I’m not, I’m from AWY... We’re debuting in December.”

“Idol?”

Yes. Ian nodded. Jo Min Hwan exhaled in disbelief. Seeing that Director Cha also had a face hearing it for the first time, it seems that he had never heard it from Director Lee Sang Hyuk.

“Hey, I thought you were a rookie actor because you had an actor visual and also good at acting.”

“Haha. Thanks for the compliment, hyung.”

“Wow, look at this? So, you haven’t even made an official debut yet, but you even suggested an ad-lib? Wow, you punk.”

Jo Min Hwan smiled with admiration. He is polite, had a good-looking face, and even knows how to take care of his share. Above all, he liked that he was good at acting and passed through the scene without being blocked.

“I saved it for now. I’ll text you.”

“Yes. Hyung. But do you know this? Hyung is the first celebrity to get my number.”

“Really?”

See? I’m this kind of person. Jo Min Hwan shrugged at the people around him.

“Then you must be busy now, right?”

“Yes, Director Cha. There’s not much time left until our debut...”

“Seeing Writer Jung like that, I think there will be additional filming though....”

“Is that so? I don’t know if I can make the time.”

Ian looked back at the manager. Park Dong Soo shook his head.

“No way!”

Writer Jung, whose ears were open even though she was tapping the keyboard, got up suddenly as if possessed. She strode over and grabbed the director.

“Director Cha. There is a scene where he will appear. You have to hold him.”

“How’s it, can’t you make time?”

The Director, who quickly changed his stance, looked at Ian.

“It’s not a scene that comes out a lot, though? It won’t take a long time.”

“Do you think the script will come out quickly?”

“Tomorrow. I’ll write it by tomorrow.”

Writer Jung thought Ian was a rookie actor and was careless, so it felt like someone hit her in the head. Because rookie actors will run coming here no matter when asked to come right away. However, to think that he’s busy!

This is because what she was urgently writing now was the lacking parts about the criminal and the scene in which Delivery Boy recognized that criminal the foremost.

Besides, the reason why she can’t just force him to come out is that this shoddy side scripts situation was the writer’s fault in the first place. It is even more so since they didn’t make the offer a few days in advance because it was a one-time minor role.

The director and the writer stared at him eagerly. Jo Min Hwan, the assistant writer, and staff members. Everyone thought Ian was the one who could break through this sleepless situation.

Ian looked at Park Dong Soo. Park Dong Soo checked the schedule on his cell phone. If Ian came out more, it would be beneficial for the company as well.

[You’ll need to follow the choreography hard. Can you do it?]

‘...I should try it.’

He had to take additional filming of the music video. An additional photoshoot was also left. And he had to practice choreography. In between, he needs to film self-produced content. Then the only time for additional filming was practice.

“You need to cut practice time.”

“...Yes.”

The manager seemed to have the same thought, so he approached the writer and the assistant director to coordinate the schedule.

He saved the sleep of the drama cast, but he could not save his own sleep. A future is clearly drawn where he sleeps in the corner of the practice room. Ian’s mind went blank.

It didn’t feel bad though. It’s also a better choice to show his face more because in the end, his ad-lib worked and the amount increased.
