Chapter 172

Episode 172 of I Will Live as an Actor

goes through a process called pre-production, including synopsis, planning, script, storyboard, staff composition, and hunting, and then begins the production stage.

The length of time leading to actual filming is something no one can predict. It is not uncommon for filming to fail even after the casting of actors has been completed. but.

The current MBS drama department was different. Who can kick away the luck that has rolled in on the vine?

Kim Woo-hyung’s debut film, which was still in the planning stage, gained momentum thanks to the casting of two outstanding young male and female actors, Jang Young-guk and Yeon-soo.

[What is the next film that actor Jang Young-guk chose after rejecting the pouring love calls from overseas?]

[MBS drama ‘I Risked Life and Death’ actor Jang Young-guk’s next work of choice, an MBS drama!]

[A reunion of a man and a woman who won the Best Couple Award when they were children England and Yeonsu ‘Meet again as lovers!’]

England’s choice for the next project caused a huge stir not only in the broadcasting industry but also in Chungmuro.

Immediately after filming finished in Hong Kong, most people involved thought Britain would head to Hollywood.

Not surprisingly, he was the only Korean actor in Hollywood who had been sending love calls to the UK for several years, so his next move was highly anticipated.

“Hello, actor Jang Young-guk!”

The reporter’s voice was as fresh as possible. After all, isn’t this a place to interview the hottest actor in Korea?

Considering that numerous media outlets and broadcasting stations sent interview requests but received no response, this was a golden opportunity.

“I know it’s been quite a while since we’ve had an interview like this, so please say hello to our viewers!”

England smiled faintly and bowed his head deeply towards the camera.

“Nice to meet you. This is actor Jang Young-guk. First of all, I would like to thank my fans and viewers who have waited for me for a long time. This time I got to see you in a new drama on MBS. “We ask for your enthusiastic viewing!”

After the formal greetings were over, the reporter began the full-scale interview.

“Is it true that Actor Jang Young-guk’s latest work has some fantasy elements?”

“It’s true. The story I am in charge of deals with the story of a mermaid prince living under the sea who transforms into a human and takes place on land. “It’s like a fairy tale that can’t happen in reality.”

“I see, I enjoyed the introduction of the work. “Now, at this point, there is news that we received separately. Can we confirm the facts?”

“Fact check?”

“I heard that you highly recommended Yeonsu for the role opposite him. “If you don’t mind, I will edit this part separately.”

The reporter’s final words become blurred. There may be concerns that the question might offend the British public. But England smiles again as if he doesn’t care and answers.

“What kind of secret can we even go off the record with? it’s okay. It was correct that I recommended Actor Yeon Soo for the opposite role. However, this does not mean that the actor was unconditionally selected for the opposite role, but the final decision was made by the producer and writer after a separate audition was conducted.”

“It was so true! “Why did you recommend actress Yeonsu for the role opposite you?”

“Because it’s pretty.”

“yes?”

Was it an unexpected answer? Embarrassment appears on the reporter’s face. But England seems to be slyly elaborating.

“You will know when the drama comes out, but in the story, she is a woman that the Little Mermaid Prince falls in love with at first sight. It has to be that beautiful. In that sense, I thought Yeonsu would fit the role very well in the play. Of course, he is also an actor whose acting skills he has accumulated since he was a child actor are backed up.”

It was a humorous answer. Afterwards, questions related to the drama continued. We also asked why England chose a drama as its next project rather than a movie.

I know that she receives numerous love calls not only from Chungmuro but also from overseas, and I was very curious as to why she appeared in a domestic drama while adjusting her own appearance fee.

“Director, aren’t you nervous?”

“I’m not nervous at all. Rather, I think of this opportunity as the luck of my life. Because the production pie was allocated far more ships than originally planned. I had no idea that I would receive so much anticipation from my debut film. But you have to present it in a flashy way. “Can’t England just tremble in front of a good actor like you?”

Words are like a mountain stream. But for someone who says that, why does the area under his eyes start to flutter?

It was then.

“Oh England. I go first. I remembered something to organize. “Good luck then.”

“Suddenly?”

Before England can ask a question, Kim Woo-hyung hurries to leave. and.

“brother!”

A familiar voice is heard. When I turned my head, Yeonsu was standing there. Yeonsu’s appearance in a flowy dress is particularly dazzling as the sunlight reflects on it.

“Are you ready for filming?”

“I want to ask you, Yeonsu, have you read the script?”

“You still think I’m some kind of child. “Even though I’m not as good as my brother, I’m known among actors for reading a lot of scripts.”

It was Yeonsu who always seemed like a child actor. But now, she feels like an adult like most actresses. Did he even read those gazes? Yeonsu asks with a sinister smile.

“Why am I still so pretty?”

It was a training session where I was still concerned about the interviews I had done in the past. What can I do? This mouth is selfish.

“Scene No. 1 Is this a person? Or is it a statue?”

The sound of slate hitting always heightens tension. Especially if it is your first shoot. To add exaggeration, it’s so scary that you can even hear the heartbeats of the staff around you.

Kim Woo-hyung calms his trembling heart and looks at the camera screen.

The camera captures the vast panoramic view of the blue sea. The silver fish bouncing on the surface of the water even gave the illusion that jewels were appearing and hiding.

A man appeared between the white crashing waves.

It was a man lying unconscious. The man lying down wearing only black pants is shirtless.

The waves splash and wet the man’s body, and the brilliant sunlight warmly embraces his back muscles.

Because it was a deserted beach, there wasn’t even a single person passing by. For some reason, only the seagulls are looking down at the man.

“uh?”

At that time, an unfamiliar woman’s voice was heard. At that moment, a woman who was passing by the coast discovered a man washed up on the shore.

A woman wearing a flowy dress runs to the man who is lying unconscious.

“are you okay? hey!”

The woman tries to wake the man, but the man lying still does not move. Rather, he was lying face down on the white sand, so I was worried that he might suffocate from the sand.

The woman uses up all her strength to turn around the man who is drenched in sea water. Then.

“her.”

I let out an exclamation without realizing it. He was lying backwards so he couldn’t clearly see the man’s face. However, when you turn your back properly, the man’s face is clearly visible. The facial features reflected in the shining sunlight are like.

“Is this a person? “Is it a statue?”
