I Will Live As An Actor

I Will Live as an Actor Episode 171

– Can I not go?

Yeonsu pulled the bedding up to her head. Still, the red cheeks show no signs of going away.

It feels like England’s voice is still lingering in my head.

It was a moment that felt like a dream. It was an appearance like something out of a movie. The male protagonist urgently holds the hand of the female protagonist who is about to leave the country at the airport.

“Ouch!”

Screaming cheers erupted. Yeonsu’s mother heard a sound outside the door and knocked, asking, ‘Yeonsu, are you okay?’ He asks. As Yeon-soo hurriedly shouts that it is okay, laughter is heard from the other side of the door, realizing what is going on. actually.

‘I didn’t want to go either.’

Yeonsu also did not have a great desire to study abroad. I wanted to study film directing, but it was something I could do in Korea.

Anyway, Korea is no longer a bad environment for basic studies. Rather, it had an even greater advantage over New York in that it allowed me to study directing and work at the same time.

Nevertheless, the reason Yeonsu chose to study abroad was because of ‘emptiness’.

Although I have been an actor since I was a child, I could not subjectively judge whether my acting skills had improved.

Moreover, hasn’t the person you admired already become recognized and famous not only at home but also abroad?

The more I did, the more anxious I became. For this reason, it could be said that he chose to study abroad in the city of refuge.

Of course, like my agency said, I wanted to act. However, as he began to doubt whether he would be able to do well in the gap between child and adult roles, his impatience became uncontrollable.

Although I have been working as an actor since I was a child, acting as an adult and as a child are completely different.

It was also the reason why many child actors disappeared without being able to cross that threshold. It was right to be honest and say that I was scared.

-Yeonsu.

In such a situation, Britain’s proposal seemed like a rope sent down from the sky.

-Would you like to act with me again?

MBS Drama Department.

Growing orchids is not easy. If you think of it like a regular flower, you will see an orchid withering in less than 15 days.

Temperature and humidity, as well as the direction of sunlight, require as much care as raising a child.

That’s why it must be expensive.

“Hmm.”

The famous CP, who is wiping a long leaf, narrows his eyebrows. I received an orchid as a gift, but I had no idea it would be this difficult to care for. Why aren’t there statistics showing that the plants that die the most in Korea are the orchid family?

The reason why he takes care of these difficult-to-grow orchids is simple.

Even if you look at the MBS Drama Department, or even across all terrestrial broadcasting channels, there is probably no one as young as you to have been appointed CP. What’s more, he studied so well that he earned the title of Deputy Director.

It was the first orchid I received as a gift since becoming deputy director. Since it was given directly by the president of the broadcasting station, he was worried that the long leaves would even wilt and even bought gardening-related books.

In some ways, this orchid in front of me was more important than the nameplate of the deputy director.

I felt like I knew why the director of the drama department took such great care of the orchid in his office on a certain day in the past.

‘No, it would be better to give a gift certificate. Why give something so difficult as a gift?’

They say it’s a mascot-like gift from the head of MBS broadcasting station, but is there any way to do it? It could be said that he rose to the position of executive at a broadcasting station by having plants from the orchid family by his side. At least.

“Hmm, it smells good.”

The gentle scent of the mountains flowing from orchids lifts the mood. It is a scent that you can never smell in the city. Didn’t the flower buds that bloomed in the middle of the long leaves bloom in full bloom as if asking you to look at them? by the way.

“I hope Woo-hyung is doing well.”

Yoo Myung doesn’t have a very good relationship with his seniors in the MBS drama department to begin with. Of course, how much harassment and checks was there when he was a regular PD?

Not only did he hand over a historical drama that seemed like a burden to him as if he were throwing a bomb around, but I have also seen him politicize the head of the division and the director in order to somehow get the production pie.

But the one who survives is the winner.

After all, didn’t he get the CP position over seniors who were much older than him? Suddenly, his successor became his superior.

There were even people who could not overcome their sense of entitlement and left MBS and moved to other broadcasting stations.

Because of this situation, Yoo Myung had a strong relationship with his junior producers, both publicly and privately, and one of them was producer Kim Woo-hyung.

“I said it would be troublesome.”

As expected, the work I selected as my debut work as soon as I finished AD and became a PD was somewhat difficult.

The writer is also a beginner who worked as an assistant writer at another broadcasting company’s entertainment department for a long time. If there had been someone other than a famous person in the position of deputy director, the program would have been impossible in the first place. But Yumyeong pushed him.

-Myeonghan, why doesn’t Woohyung look like he did when you were young?

As the drama director said, it may have been because he saw his past self in Kim Woo-hyung’s appearance. However, the decisive factor that pushed him was his skills.

Like his past self, he was an AD, but wasn’t he sometimes called up to direct the B team of senior PDs?

At that time, I saw Kim Woo-hyung’s skills and understanding of directing surpassed those of most senior PDs. but.

“The actor is important.”

But that doesn’t mean there’s nothing to worry about. The programming has been confirmed, but there is no significant cast of actors. Even if it is a terrestrial drama, it is not easy to cast famous actors.

They also had to predict the success potential of their work because they had to calculate their profits correctly.

In that sense, Kim Woo-hyung’s debut work was not only a new producer but also a new writer, so from an external perspective, it is no different from a failing grade.

smart.

At that moment, a knocking sound is heard beyond the deputy director’s office.

“come in.”

I didn’t ask who it was, but of course my boss wouldn’t come knocking and come in. Soon the door opens and a man enters.

“Kim Woo-hyung… … ?”

The famous PD’s eyes are filled with puzzlement. This guy went on a business trip for a week.

He has a dazed expression as if he is on drugs. At that time, Kim Woo-hyung speaks as if possessed.

“Deputy Director.”

“Hey Kim Woo-hyung. What’s wrong with your face? “Did something happen during your business trip?”

“Something truly amazing happened.”

“A huge deal? what is that?”

“… … saw. “In Yeongdo.”

what?

“I tried it!”

What did you see?

Songwon Entertainment.

“What’s your next project?”

CEO Seonghwan Kim opened his eyes wide at the unexpected news. It was not long after we finished filming the movie in Hong Kong. The agency was always flooded with synopses for various movies and dramas, but there were some that were deliberately not made known to the UK.

This is because I was concerned that I might feel physically and mentally burdened. But isn’t Britain willing to talk about its next project first?

“This is a work being planned by MBS. “I quite liked it.”

England put down the synopsis handed to him by writer Min on the table. Seonghwan Kim naturally picked up the synopsis and asked back.

“At MBS? When did I contact you? Even if he was a famous producer, he wouldn’t contact you directly.”

It is an unwritten rule between broadcasting stations and agencies. Rather than making a casting request directly to an actor, the request is made through a detour through an agency.

“We happened to meet each other in Yeongdo. It’s not producer Yu, it’s producer Kim Woo-hyung, who is joining MBS this time. “It is said that author Min Soo-jin, who wrote the work, was originally at SBC’s entertainment department.”

“Getting started? Entertainment bureau…?”

It gets more and more ghastly as time goes by. It is also surprising that he chose a drama as his next work; the producer in charge of directing is a newcomer who is just starting out, and the writer in charge of writing is said to be originally from another broadcasting company’s entertainment department. I had a terrible headache.

“England, that’s right. “Why on earth did you choose this work?”

“I think it would be fun and I think it will be popular.”

“… … .”

If someone else had said that he would select a work like this as his next work, Seonghwan Kim would have stopped him, even if it meant hitting him.

However, the person sitting across from him was none other than actor Jang Young-guk.

Seonghwan Kim was England’s partner and guardian who had been with him since he was a child. The actor he saw named Jang Young-guk was, in a word, close to a ‘fortune teller.’ It’s also very brave.

‘Every film I film is a huge hit!’

How dare he be called the Hand of Midas among those involved. Among the representatives of several entertainment companies, there were times when Kim Seong-hwan came to see him and asked him to tell him secretly. I am very curious about what kind of work the UK is interested in.

“Okay, this is it. But, England, if you think about your guarantee now, it’s not at a level that a terrestrial drama station can afford. “It’s hard for me to say this, but it’s not because you’re my actor. You’re already one of the top three male actors in Korea!”

I thought this was also a bit of an underestimate. To put it bluntly, the only Korean actor receiving love calls from Hollywood and Hong Kong was none other than England.

It’s just that I haven’t made it into Hollywood yet, but it’s only a matter of time before I do if I put my mind to it.

But let alone a drama, it was the debut work of a new producer and a writer from the entertainment department. I couldn’t help but find it ironic.

“Let’s read it.”

Seeing is better than hearing about it. Without further elaboration, England pointed to the synopsis with a glance. CEO Seonghwan Kim swallows his saliva and unfolds a single sheet. Well, let’s watch it and then talk about how great it is that it dazzled actor Jang Young-guk.

The beginning of the synopsis was based on Byeoljujeon.

[The Dragon King’s condition became more serious day by day. The Mermaid Prince received the Dragon King’s call and headed to land. As in Byeoljujeon, the Dragon King needed a rabbit’s liver. Not just any rabbit’s liver can be used as

medicine.] [The liver of a rabbit that disturbed the Dragon Palace in the past was needed. But it’s not like looking for a needle on a white sand beach, so how can you find it on land? In response to the Mermaid Prince’s question, the Dragon King did not elaborate further, leaving only the words that he would find out naturally. In the end, the mermaid prince headed to land with only doubts in his mind.]

In some ways, it is a story that cannot help but be childish. But at this point, it may be an interesting story. That’s because on a day when terrestrial dramas were fake, they were filled with similar stories and new dramas.

To begin with, there are currently no dramas with fantasy elements in Korea.

Seonghwan Kim read the synopsis again.

-how is it?

[While the mermaid prince was heading toward land, he was caught in a storm and washed ashore. And there he saw the woman who saved him. [She is a very beautiful and lovely woman.]

[The mermaid prince was drawn to her, forgetting his original purpose. She also felt love for the mermaid prince in human form. However, the more he thought about it, the more he felt uncomfortable about the presence of the Dragon King waiting for him in the Dragon Palace.]

How much time had passed? Although quite a bit of time has passed since I arrived on land.

[The rabbit that disturbed the Dragon Palace in the past could not be found. Still, I couldn’t give up. He was the last being who could save the Dragon King. In the meantime, the person who gave strength to the Mermaid Prince was none other than her. The Mermaid Prince also felt love for her. But as time went by, I learned more.]

Gulp.

Kim Seong-hwan’s Mokuldae shakes again. His gaze rests on one sentence in the page.

[That she is the reincarnation of a rabbit who can save the Dragon King.]
