I Only Play Villains

splendid ending (3)

My mother took out a 3.5-inch hard disk and came out with it.

“Mom, it’s hard, but wasn’t it 20 years ago?”

“I don’t know much about that. Your dad made a backup once.”

“Let’s see. Fortunately, it’s not an IDE, it’s satane. It’s hard to find a cable, but it’s good. This will connect directly to my external case.”

Jeong Su-ryun quickly brought an empty external hard drive case, put the hard drive in it, and connected it to her laptop.

My mother sat next to me, holding my hand tightly and waiting with excitement.

“Seo-Hun, when he was in kindergarten, what kind of joke party did he have?”

“Yes. I couldn’t go because I had work at the time, and only your father went alone. I only saw it on video later, but I forgot about it and suddenly remembered it today.”

“It’s a real rare item. Do you even remember what it was about?”

“I only remember that Seo Hoon did a one-person play. That’s why my head has been tickling lately, and I suddenly remembered it while looking at the view cam.”

Jeong Su-ryun looked back at her mother with the look of meeting a ghost.

Sensing her gaze, her mother slapped her shoulder as if asking why.

“Why do you look at your mother like that?”

“Mom, I’m scared.”

“What are you afraid of?”

“In fact, there is a setting that Hwang Kun-wook’s mother tried to make him an actor when he was young in View Cam. For my mother’s unfinished dream. In the next episode, it is mentioned once and passed on.”

“Did you ever tell the author what I was doing when I was a girl?”

“I don’t even know that I almost broke my leg when my grandfather caught me while sneaking into a small theater troupe in Daehangno.”

“Oh, it’s a really old story. How nasty was your grandfather’s personality.”

“You are kind to us.”

“Originally, that’s how love goes down a bridge.”

“Still, when my mother groaned after giving birth to me, my grandfather said he hated me so much. You’re giving your daughter a hard time.”

There was not a trace of regret in the mother’s warm smile.

“It’s so good that Seo Hoon is doing well both as a professor and as an actor.”

“Yeah. You could have given me at least one, but my mom and dad failed to distribute the gene, so I only gave up on one side, right?”

“If you’re good enough, you did a good job. I know how much my friends’ daughters envy you. Just play it quickly.”

“Why is he so unrecognized… … .”

Jeong Su-ryun, who had been grunting here and there, was finally ready to regenerate.

“It’s okay, it’s okay. Turn it on now.”

“It’s the first time I’ve seen it since I’ve seen it so long ago, kid.”

Soon after, the video played.

A noisy party atmosphere flowed in the low-resolution video, which was absurdly low compared to these days.

I could see the sound of the kindergarten teacher’s microphone, the high-pitched sounds of children bursting here and there, and the young Jeong Seo-hoon standing in the center of the podium, silently fixing his gaze somewhere.

“Yeah, looking at it like this, Seo Hoon has been growing since then. How can you stand there so calmly?”

“How quiet your brother was. Really comfortable, I raised it for nothing. It was a scholarship this year, so I barely paid.”

The young Jeong Seo-hoon, who was standing upright, suddenly clenched his fists as the teacher in charge of the meeting ran out of words.

And he began pouring out thickly colored English lines, making the high-pitched voice unique to children coming out of his thin vocal cords colorless.

Jeong Su-ryun caused an earthquake in her pupils and watched her younger brother, a kindergartener, in a one-person play.

The character and age of the role do not match at all with the younger brother. The age gap between the character and the actor is also great.

However, there was an atmosphere strong enough to overshadow it.

It is full of unpolished and rugged parts, but it does not hide the fact that it is a shiny gemstone.

The proof is the ambient noise in the video that has suddenly become quiet.

After a short and intense one-person play that lasted only a few minutes, the young Jeong Seo-hoon bowed his head, and thunderous applause poured out.

“Mom, what is this? Why is he doing a Shakespeare Macbeth one-man play in English?”

“When Seo Hoon was young, he learned English earlier than others while watching American cartoons.”

“That is not what I mean. Hey, have you been acting? Without me knowing?”

“It’s not like that, I think I heard that a teacher suggested that as a joke when preparing for a talent show.”

“So that’s your first time?”

“It was the first and the last.”

“Why didn’t you tell me at all?”

My mother was sorry and full of embarrassment, so she looked away.

“Since then, you have been crying and shouting about wanting to be a child actor, and how crazy it was. I didn’t tell my brother because I was afraid that if he knew about this, he would get jealous and bully him. Then I forgot.”

“Seohun, do you remember this?”

“It seemed like I couldn’t. It was also when I was very young.”

“What are you talking about. Does he have a good memory?”

“It is something that is interesting to me, like studying. He quickly erased the things he was not interested in without hesitation. After becoming an adult, it seems like I remember almost everything and live on.”

Jeong Su-ryun watched the video again from the beginning, shaking her hands.

The vibrating eyelashes were moist and wet, as if they would shed tears of jealousy and resentment at any moment.

“Anyway, because of you, Soo-ryun, I had forgotten about it for a long time, but looking at it now, our Seo-hoon really started to like it. Is not it?”

“… … mom.”

“The actor gave up. He said he would become a producer and the president of a broadcasting station.”

“Have I ever been adopted? It’s really okay now, so you can tell me the secret of your birth.”

During ＜Beautiful Campus＞, several years have passed.

The Seoul National University Nuclear Fusion Team, led by Hwang Gun-wook, has finally succeeded in putting nuclear fusion to practical use.

It completed a commercial nuclear fusion reactor, not an experimental one, and held the world’s first operation ceremony.

More than 1,000 scholars from all over the world congratulated the event with a standing ovation.

The real-time non-rap community was also in a frenzy.

-It’s a scene where real mulberries are filling up… … !

-Originally, this kind of scene has a limited number of extras, so the number of people is poor. So it can look sloppy and embarrassing, but the view cam solves it by recording the real situation.

-It’s not CG, but real scientists brought in so many scenes and the eyes are purified.

-ㅋㅋㅋ In real life, this is the scene where a professor proves room-temperature nuclear fusion to great scholars from all over the world.

– How would a real PD writer feel?

Hwang Kun-wook’s commercial nuclear fusion reactor operation ceremony scenes were taken during the Japanese certification ceremony.

Because of this, it was possible to deliver realistic large-scale images that go beyond super-large blockbuster movies.

Since more than a thousand scholars gathered in one place and gave a standing ovation, the real scene was written in the drama, so viewers who knew the context could fully feel the overwhelming emotion.

-Congratulations. You have finally become the 21st century Second Coming Prometheus.

-Thanks to Professor Kim Jung-ae.

– My father, can’t you forgive me?

-… … .

– Now I will tell you my terms.

Instead of participating in Hwang Kun-wook’s team, Kim Jung-ae made a wish. She brought out the heart she had accumulated for the first time after successfully creating an artificial sun.

– Consider my father and I separate. Don’t look at me as a father’s daughter, just look at me as a human being, Kim Jung-ae. That’s my condition.

– It’s been like that for a long time.

-Please make it 10 times, no, 100 times thicker than what you have been doing.

-All right.

The confrontation between Hwang Kun-wook and Kim Jin-gyu (Kim Jeong-ae’s father) ended with the victory of the Seoul National University team.

This was not a victory achieved by Hwang Kun-wook alone.

It was a victory that could be achieved faster thanks to the unity of all the professors and masters and doctors who had confronted him, quarreled, or felt awkward.

– But. Yura said that Professor Hwang’s original dream was to be something other than a scholar?

-well. I wonder what Yura got wrong.

– Yura sent me a Buzz Tube link. Do you know how surprised I was? I thought I was not really Professor Hwang, but someone else.

– What are you talking about?

Hwang Kun-wook’s expression of embarrassment for the first time gave Kim Jung-ae a cool pleasure and viewers a pleasant taste of reversal.

– It’s a waste, it’s a waste. If he had utilized his talent well, he would have left a footprint that goes far beyond nuclear fusion in Hollywood. What did you come all this way for?

Hwang Geon-wook gritted his teeth for a while before answering reluctantly.

-Because I really wanted to avenge my father.

– So are you satisfied? A life devoted only to avenging his father for the rest of his life while abandoning his own dreams?

-… … .

– After you achieve everything you want to achieve later, you won’t go back to your original dream, right? I can’t see that.

Hwang Gun-wook’s expression turned hard again, and he stared at the distant sky.

-It’s just a brief nap during my childhood.

The scene changes.

Han Yoo-ra (Han Seo-hee), now a doctor, finds an old video on the UCC portal Buzz Tube and looks surprised.

In the video, a short scene in which the young and small Hwang Gun-wook vomits out the feelings of desperate tragedy and desire and receives applause assaults the viewers’ eyes.

In the fast-forward flow of time, a young man Hwang Gun-wook (Jung Seo-hoon himself) breaks down after hearing about his father’s tragedy, giving up his dream and deciding to continue his father’s research.

After the repetition of quick flashbacks of less than one minute, the current Hwang Gun-wook looks back at Kim Jeong-ae with a much more relaxed feeling.

-This dream I cherish now is more precious to me than the nap of childhood.

[Who is this child actor? ㅠㅠㅠ]

-Who is this kid who played the child role of Hwang Kun-wook today?

– Wow, I really hardened after seeing it.

– It’s been a long time since I got goosebumps watching child acting

-No, such a fluent pronunciation of such a young child is nonsense. I can never do that because I’m not growing. Must be an actor for seconds. You are wrong when retorting

– I couldn’t hear anything because I didn’t understand anything, but the desperate feelings were conveyed.

-You look cute too, but please don’t reverse it and just keep growing like thatㅠㅠㅠ

-No hahahaha If you had discovered a child actor like this, you should have actively used it as a child professor hahahaha how come you come around the end of the drama and only give me ten seconds hahahaha

-I wish for a correct change (1/100) Refrain from reverse change ㅠㅠ

-Really, just grow up like this hahahaha Noona will cheer you onㅠㅠㅠ

After today’s airing, the non-rap community was ablaze with unusual rice cakes.

It was thanks to the main character in the faded video, which briefly appeared as Hwang Kun-wook’s childhood.

It was because Macbeth, one of Shakespeare’s four major tragedies, had amazing acting that was not like a child and the screenplay was digested, and despite the restrictions of being a kindergartener, he passionately portrayed intense desire.

It’s completely different from the usual Macbeth, but if it was ‘young Macbeth, wouldn’t it be like that?’ The feeling of doing it was saved properly.

Viewers were quite positively shocked, as even those who did not know the original work and did not speak English strongly felt the emotions inherent in it.

– Possibility of co-starring in the next project with the professor? Wake up from the dream hahahahaha nothing will ever come true hahahaha

– What are the bad comments?

-ㅅㅅ Don’t make noise

-Yes, we will dream to our heart’s content, so please get rid of the mess hahahaha

-Don’t feed me, so I keep feeding Aggro;;;

-Sorry for dragging it aggro, but it’s true lol It turned out to be the child actor professor himself.

-what?

-Let’s not brag about it. The professor said he’d never played an Illegal before.

-If you were active as a child actor, there’s no way you won’t be known yet.

-Where is the manager? Buntang van

-Olda (video link) Go and watch the full video hehehehe

-what? Really? Is that the video of the professor’s kindergarten joke party?

The non-rap community was engulfed in indescribable shock.

I thought it was a newly discovered child actor, but it turned out that they were the idols they admired.

Should we rejoice at the comedy that discovered virtuosic content, or despair at the tragedy of never being able to see the two side by side on the same screen?

Amidst the confusion created by shock and fear, the post that quietly got a recommendation through fisherman’s geography climbed to the top.

-Song producer seems to be filming a drama really comfortably hehehe
