A Genius Writer Loved by an Actress

A Genius Writer Loved by an Actress 47

As soon as I got home after breaking up with director Oh Sang-sik, I turned on the channel first. Because there was definitely something to check.

‘Obviously, it’s definitely right. Lee Dong-min is ‘Jung Joo-hak’. It must be this time as well.’

If you check the expected ratings under Lee Dong-min’s name, you will know immediately, so there was nothing to be suspicious of.

There are also two tickets left to check the expected ratings, so it seemed like it would be good to check episode 12 twice, with and without Lee Dong-min.

First of all, don’t include Lee Dong-min.

Genre: Action Thriller

Directed by: Oh Sang-sik

Starring: Kam Woo-hyeok, Min Yu-ri

Script: Yoon Jae-ho

[Do you want to check the expected ratings for episode 12?]

[Yes / No]

The result is displayed when you click ‘Yes’.

[4 out of 5 tickets have expired]

[The expected audience rating for episode 12 is 15.6%]

Last time episode 8 was 13.8%

A bit higher than that. It’s making good progress, but at a disappointing level.

“Then let’s see Lee Dong-min now.”

Lee Dong-min’s name was added next to the appearance section.

Genre: Action Thriller

Directed by: Oh Sang-sik

Starring: Gam Woo-hyuk, Min Yu-ri, Lee Dong-min

Script: Yoon Jae-ho

How about episode 12 with Lee Dong-min?

[Do you want to check the expected ratings for episode 12?]

[Yes / No]

With a trembling heart, I clicked ‘Yes’.

[5 out of 5 ratings tickets expired]

[The expected audience rating for episode 12 is 24.8%]

“Ooh shh!”

In an instant, it became ice in its place.

24.8%!!

There was no need to further check the ratings of other episodes, and the opal wine with Lee Dong-min was an invitational one.

‘Do… is this a reasonable viewership rating?’

He seemed to know what the word “stuttered” meant.

‘If the ratings for episode 12 are that low, then how high will episode 16 go up?’

Wow, I’m going crazy.

Unconditionally, no matter what happens, you have to catch Lee Dong-min.

Lee Dong-min is the cheat of Opal.

I immediately opened the Internet and searched everything about Lee Dong-min. Not long ago, I was looking for news that the contract renewal with the agency failed and that my activities were sparse.

I called Director Oh Sang-sik.

I think it would be quicker to just ask.

***

After returning home from Blancnois, Oh Sang-sik went straight to the study. To read the script up to episode 12 of the opal that I received today.

One-seater luxury recliner.

Standing light next to it.

Luxury horn-rimmed glasses.

Oh Sang-sik sat in the most comfortable position and began to turn over the script. In the midst of the silence, there was only the sound of a paper passing.

widely.

However, unlike usual, I couldn’t get past a few pages and closed the script. Oddly enough, I couldn’t concentrate.

‘I don’t answer. Oh~.’

It was truly an unsatisfying act.

By the age of 40, he devoted himself only to making dramas to the extent that others acknowledged that he married his work. He had never had that common flirtation since his school days.

But what is this?

Cupid’s arrow pierced the moment he saw Song Seon-ah at Blanc Noir.

What a disconcerting experience.

‘It can be. People look at people and get some kind of inspiration, or people they need right now, or something, so they can be attracted to them. So don’t panic too much and think about it calmly. Why am I attracted to Song Seon-ah?’

Oh Sang-sik’s mind was filled with Song Seon-ah. The more you try to deny it, the more.

But it wasn’t like Romeo and Juliet’s feelings that were about to explode.

I’m sure you’re attracted to it, right?

I would say that he seems to be a person who can fill the missing elements.

‘difficult. Let’s just read the script.’

After cooling his head for a while, Oh Sang-shik unfolded the script again. Then, with superhuman strength, he began to focus on each letter.

Fortunately, Song Seon-ah, who had been shimmering, gradually disappeared and I was able to immerse myself in the story. Because the immersion in the script was no joke.

‘It’s a script that is not tied to a frame and can be varied. It’s amazing too.’

Oh Sang-shik entered the world of opal wine and met Byung-soo and Ji-hyeon. I went to Obulsansin, had a chilling experience, participated in an illegal clinical trial, and saw ‘Jeong Ju-hak’ going crazy.

Then,

fade.

Oh Sang-shik’s hand, which was turning over the script with the rhythm, stopped.

From now on, the sequence where Jung Joo-hak turns into an absolute evil.

Oh Sang-sik straightened his posture and opened his eyes wider.

After annihilating the people on the roadside, ‘Jeong Ju-hak’ escapes from the place full of confusion, despair and screams and heads to the cafe ‘Rosemary’.

Normally, ‘Rosemary’ was like a resting place for ‘Jung Joo-hak’.

There was a cafe employee, ‘Lee Eun-ju’, who always greeted him with a bright smile. Of course, she was being nice to all the guests, but it didn’t matter.

To ‘Jeong Ju-hak’ who is tired of the world’s cold treatment, ‘Lee Eun-joo’ is just an oasis.

‘Jung Ju-hak’, whose eyes are red, opened the door of ‘Rosemary’.

‘It’s not your fault. you are not like that I hope you can receive warm comfort like ‘You are a good person too.’

‘Jung Joo-hak’ wanted to hear the saying that ordinary people hear at least once. Otherwise, it didn’t seem like he could handle it after that.

‘Jung Joo-hak’ was expected. May ‘Lee Eun-joo’ comfort you.

Even if it’s a damn lie.

When ‘Jung Joo-hak’, a monster-like figure, appears in the cafe, the people there are confused. It’s the same with ‘Lee Eun-joo’.

‘Jung Ju-hak’ himself may not have known, but his appearance was already half the incarnation of evil.

‘Lee Eun-ju’ hides in the corner of the counter and calls the police.

“hello. Honey… yo… heuk heuk… here’s a monster… appeared… um… please… save me…”

At that moment, ‘Lee Eun-ju’ is grabbed by the neck.

can’t breathe

“monster..”

The last words ‘Lee Eun-ju’ spit out helplessly.

Tears of blood flow from Jeong Joo-hak’s eyes.

“You are the same. Just die!”

‘Jung Joo-hak’ gets angry and strangles her to death.

With this, ‘Jung Ju-hak’ escaped from absolute evil.

He is no longer his past.

Only the red-eyed rabbit remains.

“Kya~”

Admiration came out of Oh Sang-sik’s throat.

The atrocities of ‘Jung Joo-hak’ are terrifying, yet understandable. A character like this that evokes three-dimensional and multifaceted emotions.

“Jeong Joo-hak is amazing, and I really like Lee Eun-joo’s character. I want to live well.”

‘Lee Eun-joo’, who plays a decisive role in ‘Jung Ju-hak’ transforming into absolute evil, captured Oh Sang-sik’s heart.

the more you look

the more you think about it.

“Hey. ‘Lee Eun-joo’ this role. I’ll be a real scene stealer Who is playing this role?”

In his view, ‘Lee Eun-joo’ was a role that had to match her image more than her acting skills.

An image that is attractive enough to attract attention, but will respond kindly if you ask it.

“I want it to be a newcomer with an unknown face, and I want it to show a little more maturity than being too young…”

oh!

Then, another face comes to mind.

Song Seon-ah.

The face of Song Seon-ah, who had interrupted reading the script for the first time, came to mind again. But this time the feeling was completely different.

not personal preference,

The excitement you feel when you find the right actor for your role as a director!

“Song Seon-ah! A kind attitude and a pretty smile to everyone. Unknown fresh mask. Plus, she doesn’t look too young. Ah~~ Is that why I was so attracted to Song Seon-ah today?”

I wondered if the reason for my attraction was Cupid’s arrow, but I wondered if it was because of ‘Lee Eun-joo’.

maybe it could be both.

It was cryptic, but

“It’s really off.”

Matching Song Seon-ah with ‘Lee Eun-joo’ gave me more confidence.

However,

Then soon…

‘What does this mean? Seon-ah is not an actress… A sudden casting offer can be poison to ordinary people who are living their lives as the owner of a cafe with Blanc. No matter how different the roles are, I can’t push them through my greed alone. Besides, I even dropped the audition in the past…’

Song Seon-ah was not an ordinary actress. Ordinary people living an ordinary life.

There has to be some acting, but it’s unclear how much Song Seon-ah’s acting will be.

‘Still, I can teach acting.’

the biggest stumbling block

‘Has Seon-ah really given up on her dream of becoming an actress?’

Oh Sang-sik was beating drums and pounding like that alone.

Until Jaeho Yoon gets a call.

Wee-ing- Weeing-

huh? Writer?

Are there any stories that haven’t been told before?

With my complicated mind behind me, I answered the phone.

“hello? Writer?”

– Oh, oh, Director.

Yoon Jae-ho panted as if sprinting 100 meters.

Any other inspirations?

“What’s going on?”

– Lee Dong-min. It’s definitely Lee Dong-min.

“yes? Are you saying you’re all over the place Lee Dong-min?”

– The word ‘Jung Joo-hak’. ‘Jung Joo-hak’ is the unconditional actor Lee Dong-min. Lee Dong-min is the only person who can perfectly digest Jeong Joo-hak.

Ah, writer Yoon. you started again Sometimes it seems like you’re lazy, like you’re noticing other people, but when you think about it, you’re like a bulldozer with no brakes.

“After listening to the author’s voice, ‘Jung Joo-hak’ is absolutely Lee Dong-min. Just like with Ji So-young last time.”

-Yes, that’s right.

“Yeah, then I know. But let me ask you one thing. Why are you Lee Dong-min?”

It’s not that I won’t do it, but I can ask why.

Actually, Lee Dong-min was not an actor who left a good impression on Oh Sang-sik. Thinking about the situation when we were filming last year’s drama.

-That’s… I can’t tell you exactly what it is… Uh, Lee Dong-min’s current condition is the closest to ‘Jung Ju-hak’. You are in a lot of pain right now and are in deep despair.

“okay? What is your status?

– Certainly I don’t know. We met on a special occasion… but we haven’t met officially yet. It’s clear that this isn’t normal…

yikes.

The writer is hitting the target again.

“…How can I act when I’m not in a normal condition?”

-So, first of all, you have to cast them, restore them to a condition where you can act, and methodically raise the experience of despair in your heart.

I didn’t think it would be easy this time either.

Cancer, yes.

Writer Yoon Jae-ho.

“Yes. That will be fine. I believe in the author’s eyes. That’s how I will cast.”

-Thank you for your trust, oh, and the bishop?

“Yes, writer.”

– Can I get the contact information of Mr. Lee Dong-min right away?

“Can’t I just contact the manager?”

-Ah, I looked it up on the internet, but the contract with the agency had expired. I also called my former agency and asked.

“I heard you met Lee Dong-min. Can’t we just go see it?”

– Because that’s not a common situation.

“yes. First of all, I don’t have a phone number, but I probably have an assistant director at that time. I will find out right away.”

– Could you please? thank you

“Our writer works so hard even during the Chuseok holiday, but to this extent. Then I’ll text you later.

-yes. Please as soon as possible.

Click.

I am also a writer Yoon.

Actors he is sure of are unconditionally casting. through any trials and tribulations.

He said he was in a mess and he didn’t even know his phone number. Oh yeah…

“Then I have no hesitation. For my work.”

Oh Sang-sik also saw the potential of Song Seon-ah.

If not, make it

A strong desire to blossom into that possibility was wriggling.

***

While waiting for director Oh’s text message, I was replaying ＜Summer of Twenty-one Years＞ and looking for the making film.

whiz-

[Writer. This is Lee Dong-min’s manager’s phone number.

Geun-Young Cho

010 – 7763 – XXXX ]

As soon as I got the text, I immediately called.

-hello.

A blunt female voice.

“hello. This is Jaeho Yoon.”

– By the way?

Still a dull voice.

The feeling of not being smooth.

“Are you Lee Dong-min’s actor manager?”

-··· What are you doing?

“yes. That’s the writer. drama writer.”

-What kind of work did you write?

“Baristas don’t know coffee. The PBS Chuseok special that aired today.”

-Oh. hello. Author. I really enjoyed watching the drama.

The moment Jo Geun-Young’s attitude changed 180 degrees the moment she held the barber hair. The cold voice disappeared, and a gentle spring breeze blew.

‘what? Is this the person you just called?’

I was embarrassed, but I was glad that the conversation would go well from now on.

“Ah yes. Thank you for watching.”

– I didn’t just see it well, I saw it very well. Even though I’m very busy, I watched all three episodes.

“Ah, thank you so much.”

– But what happened?

“Ah, I called because I wanted to cast Lee Dong-min in my next drama. Now that I look at it, there is no agency and the only person I can contact is Geun-young.”

-···

Cool atmosphere again.

Oh, it’s hard to get used to. tiring.

After a while, Jo Geun-young opened her mouth. In a voice full of determination, as if something had been decided.

-Can you come here now?

“sure. I’ll go right now. How is it there?”

The horns were hot.

I ran without delay.
