chapter 35
It feels like a child who was stubborn all the time looking back at one moment and seeing a grown up figure.
“Actually, there’s a secret I couldn’t even tell the boss.”
“secret?”
“yes. When I shot the music video, I thought of this.”
Yuna smiled broadly and said.
“Acting is more fun than I thought.”
Called.
It’s not that Yuna hates acting.
But I chose singing over acting to do the song I wanted to do so much that I ran out of the house.
Unlike the songs he always sang, he must have enjoyed the acting he first experienced while filming a music video.
“It’s not confirmed anyway. If I go and don’t like the director, I’ll leave. So, let’s go and try it.”
“Will you?”
“yes. Because you can read the script as you go. Let’s get ready and go.”
There was a lot to prepare.
I have to contact the film production company and get a script for the role of Shin Ji-soo to show the acting the director demands.
I can’t take her right now, so I’ll have to get a bit of makeup to match the role of Shin Ji-soo.
“Then shall we prepare?”
“yes!”
Yuna, who regained her positive energy, replied with a bright smile.

LD couldn’t have felt better.
Seeing that restless Hyukjun made me feel as if the world would fly away.
And that’s not all.
Team leader Chan-Woong Park, who heard the news that he got a chance from LD, was in an uproar.
“Hey! After all, we only have Jaewoo. How did you think of recommending our company to the director in that short moment?”
“Ah, chief. I am Jaewoo Lee. The idea came to me just because the situation happened. In any case, prepare well and bring it. Don’t embarrass me for saying it for nothing.”
“okay. I’m resting over there while drinking this. I’ll take care of the rest.”
After taking out his cell phone, team leader Park Chan-woong is busy running somewhere.
Maybe you should contact the company and ask them to come quickly.
I even finished the preparations so that director Kim Sang-joong would like it.
After a while.
Choi Woo-hyuk had arrived. A car was coming into the set.
Like a hole-in-the-wall shop, Chado is also a carnival.
It was still before the arrival of the actors who departed from BS, but it was okay.
I’m going to go back empty-handed because I’m not satisfied with director Kim Sang-joong’s eyes anyway.
‘Well, anyone can act. It’s crazy that Hyukjun has become one.’
Thinking of them soon to be humiliated, LD let out a satisfied laugh.
Choi Woo-hyuk got off the driver’s seat first.
The moment Hyukjun said he was good at acting came out through the back door.
“uh?”
LD’s face hardened.
A smile lingered awkwardly across his lips.
“and.”
“who is this?”
“I don’t know. but it’s awesome Is it just Shin Ji-soo?”
Although the murmur of the staff around them grew louder.
LD couldn’t hear anything.
Anyone who has read the script of ‘The Detective’ will recognize it at a glance.
The person who got out of the car was Shin Ji-soo himself.
In an instant, a word popped into LD’s head.
Self-infestation water.
is the word

“hello. This is Yuna Choi.”
Despite Yuna’s greetings, the frozen people showed no sign of being released.
but.
I was even surprised to see Yuna finished makeup.
How do you feel when you meet people for the first time?
He even went through the script he was handed over and prepared to suit the role of Shin Ji-soo.
Despite infiltrating the organization as a detective, she is beautiful enough to make the protagonist fall in love.
I wondered where such a person was.
When Yuna finished her makeup, that person was in front of her.
Over there, director Kim Sang-joong, who was having a conversation with a gray-haired old man, saw Yuna and asked the old man for his understanding.
Then, seeing the face of director Kim Sang-joong, who runs away in a hurry, I can understand it.
It must have been the feeling of Shin Ji-soo getting out of the car in my head.
“nice to meet you. I am director Kim Sang-joong of this movie. We’re running out of time, so can we see it right away?”
Director Kim Sang-joong, seeing Yuna, seems to have become urgent, so he orders acting first.
In fact, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t worried.
I don’t know what Yuna will look like because she made me sit in the back seat to focus and only read the script.
I didn’t have enough time because I was preparing to come here from makeup.
but.
“Chief. Don’t worry and focus on driving. Then an accident, an accident!”
I was a little less worried thanks to Yuna shouting from the back seat to believe in myself.
“I came in a hurry today, so it’s okay if I don’t show it perfectly. Because I will only look at feelings today.”
The scene requested by director Kim Sang-joong is a scene in which Shin Ji-soo finds out about his father’s drug dealing and falls into trouble.
It was only natural that the scene of agony was the most important part for Shin Ji-soo, who had only a few appearances.
For the main character, it becomes the prelude to a counterattack. Because it was the turning point of the movie.
“wait a minute.”
The location is in the middle of the filming site.
In the midst of all the staff and actors’ attention. An urgent audition was held.
Director Kim Sang-joong’s intentions were understandable.
It is a fun role that is suddenly put in. I must have wanted to see if I could show proper acting in the midst of pressure from so many people watching.
Several candidates who were already rushed in from other agencies said they had auditioned like now.
All results are lost.
No matter how urgent the situation was, coach Kim Sang-joong was the one who would not pick someone if he did not exceed his own standards.
Fortunately, even under this pressure, Yuna does not show signs of trembling.
but.
Yuna was not the kind of child who shuddered under pressure wherever she went.
“May I begin?”
Director Kim Sang-joong’s OK sign fell.
After closing her eyes for a moment, Yuna’s mood suddenly changes.
A woman in agony due to a sudden situation.
She is the foster daughter of the new Seoul faction boss in the movie ‘The Detective’.
It was a new index.
“What to do?”
With trembling hands, Shin Ji-soo checked the ledgers in her father’s study.
It was a coincidence.
Shin Ji-soo, who was organizing his father’s library, accidentally saw this ledger.
And the contents written in it drove Shin Ji-soo into despair.
It was Shin Ji-soo who knew that the New Seoul faction, a national organization, never did anything right.
but.
“Drugs… not just drugs.”
Shin Ji-soo’s eyes shake uneasy.
There is no way that the foster daughter of the boss of the New Seoul faction, a nationwide organization, will be in such anguish with just one ledger.
but.
Shin Ji-soo is literally a foster daughter.
She was the child the New Seoul faction boss brought from the nursery school where he volunteered to manage his image.
And this is a story from when I was younger than that.
The memory of when Shin Ji-soo had a mother before she went to nursery school.
A woman appears in the blurry memory. Five-year-old Shin Ji-soo was next to him.
The woman inserted the injection into her arm without even looking at the child. Then, with his eyes wide open, he collapsed on the floor.
She gasped for breath, then groaned for a moment, then stopped moving.
forever.
That was the last image of her mother Shin Ji-soo remembered.
It was her trauma.
That’s why Shin Ji-soo, who saw the plan of the New Seoul faction to distribute a large amount of drugs in the triads, fell into conflict.
“This should not spread to people.”
Drugs drive people to ruin.
It’s okay if you’re alone. However, in the destruction, there will always be victims who are dragged away regardless of their will.
“How… how?”
Shin Ji-soo, looking at the ledger, couldn’t make a decision.
She was the one who made Shin Ji-soo, who was in the orphanage, a daughter and even allowed her to enjoy a prosperous life.
Is it right to put a knife in the back of the father who gave her generous love for those who don’t know?
Should she give up all the things she used to enjoy and open this ledger for the sake of strangers?
Shin Ji-soo couldn’t make a decision.
Her eyes, confused, didn’t seem to come off the ledger.
“Cut!”
Director Kim Sang-joong shouted cut as if he had taken a satisfying scene.
Only then do those who watched Yuna’s performance hold their breath, exhale.
“Yeah. Who is that rookie?”
“I don’t know. The person you brought earlier is also the first person you see?”
“I heard it earlier. I heard you are from Hyukjun’s company?”
“okay? But that’s Shin Ji-soo itself, right?”
It didn’t even have to ask for results.
A conversation between the staff who were surprised by Yuna’s acting.
And, crucially, director Kim Sang-joong looking at Yuna with a satisfied smile.
Because all of these things were telling me that Yuna passed.
I was curious.
This is Yuna, who had a hard time filming the music video for the first time because she couldn’t get a feel for it.
But what Yuna showed today was Shin Ji-soo from the movie ‘The Detective’.
I was nervous even when I saw him muttering while reading the script in the car.
I bought such anxiety and showed it through acting as if I was worried.
No matter how Yuna is, she is the owner of a brilliant talent like Han Ji-Woo.
how was that possible?
So I asked myself.
to Yuna.
“It’s Yuna.”
“yes? Chief, why?”
Yuna, who was munching on the snack the staff gave her, couldn’t see a single piece of Shin Ji-soo.
“How did you show that kind of performance earlier? The script is all I saw in the car on the way here.”
“aha! You were curious about that.”
Yuna’s reaction to asking a simple question only increased her curiosity.
“Your boss taught you that.”
I?
when?
Yuna burst into laughter at my expression of not knowing why.
“The chicken acting theory.”
“Chicken acting theory?”
“When I saw Shin Ji-soo in agony, I knew it. This is me struggling between seasoning and soy sauce!”
A dejected laugh flowed from Yuna’s words.
This time, I really didn’t know because we didn’t talk in advance.
The appearance of Shin Ji-soo, who was worried about his father who trafficked drugs.
To express it by worrying about seasoning and soy sauce?
Even I didn’t know, so people who watched Yuna’s acting theory wouldn’t have even guessed.
“okay. Good job.”
this is a talent
The brilliant talent shown by the light of talent can captivate director Kim Sang-joong of 10 million viewers with just the theory of chicken acting.

Now, rather than acting, I occasionally watch the performances of my former students.
