Chapter 142

I Will Live as an Actor Episode 142

: Great Success.

There are many types of actors. There are people who stand out from the beginning of their debut and demonstrate their talent as actors, while there are cases where they are recognized as actors after hard work, like a farmer farming.

The latter is called the hypertrophy type, and the number of such people in a broadcasting industry that is no different from the worst is so small that it can be counted on one hand.

“Brother, what you’re saying is that Young-Kuk is currently in the advanced stage of plastic surgery?”

Director Baek Jang-hoon briefly nods his head in response to a question from cinematographer Do Wook Do. A hollow laugh bursts out from above his rough beard.

“Don’t talk nonsense. Where do you see that Yeongguk has the most common type of plastic surgery?”

In the past, Do Wook Jeong encountered England for the first time at a filming site. Director Baek Jang-hoon, who was usually very thorough in selecting child actors, suddenly showed up one day with a child in tow. Well, it would be correct to say that the first impression was dull.

Just looking at his appearance, he looked like a hillbilly who had just come to Seoul from the countryside, with tanned skin and chestnut-like hair. but.

-Brother, where did you get a child like that?

The acting of the child actor he encountered at the filming site was enough to surprise Do Wook Do. Although it was only a brief cameo, it left a vivid impression on my mind. Not only was his ability to learn the script, but his understanding of shooting composition was also exceptional. Like an old veteran who has been on set for a long time. As proof of that.

-Director Do In my lifetime, this is the first time I have seen a child like that on a filming set without looking for their parents and not shaking. Moreover, what about acting? He creates pictures like a fish out of water. Why doesn’t that guy seem like a better actor than me?

The elderly actor who was filming with me burst into empty laughter. As a child, England was so different from other child actors that he was unrivaled. It would be absurd for an actor like that to have a chronic condition.

“I still see it now. Is there anyone who can easily approach Youngkuk at a filming location? We, who have been seeing each other since we were young, approach him easily, but newbies who have just joined the filming team tremble even when Youngkuk gives them a look. That’s why his acting skills are so great. “Because it’s so outstanding, people get the illusion that it’s not what it actually looks like.”

“I’ve decided on a bowl.”

“Huh? What do you mean by that?”

Do-wook Do can’t hold back his curiosity and moves forward.

“I’m talking about the fact that I act like an actor who has set his own standards. That’s what I meant when I said I was very chronic. It felt like I already knew my own limitations. That’s why I was better than others when I was acting from a young age. Maybe.”

“I don’t understand at all. I admit that my brother’s eye is better than anyone else’s in Chungmuro, but how did that young guy know my skills and set limits? I heard back then that it had only been a few months since he started acting properly. ?”

“After being together for a while, I felt it. I don’t know how a child so young knew his own limitations...”

If England had heard the conversation between the two, he would have felt heartbroken. will be. Director Baek Jang-hoon was vaguely feeling the experience of his past life.

“You said it was a large-scale plastic surgery. So if you say what you said, isn’t England already full?”

“You could say the starting point is different.”

“What do you mean by that?”

At that moment, director Baek Jang-hoon raises his head and looks at the filming site. One actor can be seen among the busy staff. I’ve seen this kid for a long time, but there are still a lot of mysteries about him. But something is clear.

“It will start after you break the shell.”

Lunch on set is busy. This is because not only the staff but also the actors have to feed a large number of people.

“Scene number 41 Jeong Hae-seok’s runaway!”

The room is already filled with the smell of alcohol, so much so that you can see the floor of the glass. Amidst a cloud of cigarette smoke, men wearing expensive suits are sitting with a woman each in their arms. Their stories are always about money and women.

“What happens if you get caught fooling around with unlisted liquor? It’s not like you’re going to vomit up as much as you ate, but the only thing you can do is stay in a detention center for a while and then get out. That’s how the law in Korea is, it’s infinitely kind to those who have it, and it’s extremely harsh to those who don’t have it. That’s why I run this country. “I can’t leave, can I?”

“I’m not interested in that little money.”

Jeong Hae-seok (UK) leans against the backrest and raises his glass. It is a gathering of second generation chaebols. They are all descendants of large conglomerates that are considered to be Korea’s leading companies, and they are the same figures who will lead the Korean corporate world in the future, but their personalities are unsatisfactory.

Not only do they waste an ordinary office worker’s salary on one night of entertainment, but they sometimes get together and enjoy drugs. It was when I was about to drink the liquor that was glistening on the top of my glass.

“You bastard’s poop form is so dirty.”

At that moment, Jeong Hae-seok puts down his drink loudly. With an unknown tension swirling around, Jeong Hae-seok speaks while stroking his face with his long fingers.

“Say it again.”

There is a coldness in the air among the friends who were just hanging out and drinking with each other. Aren’t they all envious of money? Even their dispositions are similar. As the saying goes, hard work is hard work. Someone steps in and tries to alleviate the situation, but it is not easy.

“Hey, why do friends do this to each other just because I made a mistake?”

“friend?”

Jeong Hae-seok stands up with a bitter sneer. Son Hwa-won, who was watching this from a corner of the filming site, swallows his saliva.

‘Wow, you must have lost all your strength during rehearsal.’

It was Son Hwa-won who helped England with rehearsals after lunch. Even back then, I tried to act the same script as I did now, but the sense of intimidation I felt was different. He even bursts out laughing, shaking his head from side to side with trembling eyes.

He looks like he’s smiling, but he looks like he’s about to burst out in anger at any moment. As evidence, the women sitting next to him hesitated and took a step back.

“Friend is a great word, isn’t it?”

Jeong Hae-seok raises the glass of alcohol he was drinking just moments ago. The liquor that I have not yet drunk falls from the air. He asks while looking at the Yangju that is constantly falling on the hair of the person who insulted him.

“Do you still think I’m your friend?”

“This bastard really wants to see you!”

As his fine hair became tangled with the liquor, the man raised his eyes and tried to get up. But he can’t stand up completely.

Crack.

This is because Jeong Hae-seok grabbed the man’s hair with one hand and bent his head as he stood up. Jeong Hae-seok’s face rises above the face of the man who was forced to sit down. Others are unable to think of stepping forward in this atmosphere.

After all, if you knew Jeong Hae-seok’s temperament, the very act of stepping forward in this place was an act of urging Myung. Eventually, the two people’s eyes meet. The man holding his hair tightens his eyes as if he doesn’t want to lose. However, Jeong Hae-seok speaks with a rather bitter smile.

“Not all people sitting in the same place are the same.”

Sigh!

At that moment, Jeong Hae-seok slams his drink down on the table. The broken glass scatters beyond the palm that was holding the drink, and red blood drips down.

Director Baek Jang-hoon, who was watching the scene, suddenly got up from his seat. It was clearly a prop drinking glass made of sugar. But I guess my hand got cut by something unexpectedly sharp. As soon as filming is about to stop, England’s acting continues.
