This Life From a Child Actor (349) At the

time Soohyun received the call, the media also published an article with a breaking news title.

As he was a strong final candidate, everyone wrote articles in advance and waited for the results.

It had a special impact because Soo-hyun was the first actor to be nominated for an Academy Award, rather than a piece of work or a director.

└Yes. Asian quota system.

└I hate gukppong, but I also hate gukkka. That’s really great.

└That’s really great. The movie wasn’t made with a group of Asians, it was just a general commercial movie. The fact that the white and black brothers stand out by competing against each other through the quota system only seems like an inferiority complex.

As entertainment industry articles were filled with Soo-hyun’s story, related communities were also filled with stories about her.

Some say that the policy changed this year and Su-hyun, an Asian, was nominated, but public opinion cheered Su-hyeon’s performance.

This is because the weight of the word ‘first’ was enormous.

└My brother Changryong Award was also the youngest, and now he is the first Korean to be nominated for the Best Actor Award at the Academy Awards ㅠㅠ! I watched Morning Star 3 times and your pronunciation was really good. I hope you win the award like this.

└2222 Soohyun is really amazing. What did I do at that age?

└Entertainment articles are full of stories about Suhyun right now lol

└I don’t understand the people who criticize Suhyun. The kid works really hard and has the skills, right? But they tried to discredit it somehow with ridiculous rumors.

Chocolat was also abuzz with the news of Soo-hyun’s Academy Award nomination.

They meticulously summarized how successful ‘Morning Star’ was, what it meant for Korean Soohyun to take on the role of ‘Thirteen’, and his skills, and distributed them for missionary purposes.

It included content that was better interpreted than a dream, but it was enough to attract half-hearted people.

‘It’s not a big fuss.’

And Su-hyeon only confirmed the commotion after returning home.

‘It’s only been two hours since I heard the news, but I’m interested…’

After hearing from Sang-il that I had been selected as a finalist, Su-hyeon spent a little more time with the letter congratulating me.

Apart from the good news, there was nothing else for Suhyun to do.

But that only happened when he was with Seohan. As soon as he got home, he started browsing internet sites on his smartphone.

“It feels good…”

Suhyeon rolled around on the bed and enjoyed the joy.

Sang-il was nervous, thinking that being a candidate was obvious and winning an award was unknown, but when he heard the announcement that he had been selected as a candidate, his heart sank.

‘Big first. ‘I’m the first.’

Even though the Academy Awards is not an international film award, it boasts a similar status to the other three major international film festivals.

Because so many films are released every year, the number is comparable to that of other international film festivals.

The reason why the media and the public were so upset even though he was only one of the five candidates was because Soo-hyun opened a hole that even Americans found difficult to get through.

‘Even when we returned, there were people who won Best Picture in Korea, but there was no Best Actor award.’

It’s not that Korea doesn’t have prominent directors, but it was very rare for a Korean to perform at the Academy Awards.

For Americans who are not familiar with subtitles, foreign language movies that require subtitles have acted as a barrier.

As Netfilms became popular and subtitles became a part of everyday life, there was a change in the trend, but even before his return, Koreans were not registered in the actor category.

‘At least director Kim Eul-hong, who immigrated, showed off his skills by sweeping the best director award, best picture award, and best original score award… But he didn’t immigrate this time, but he’s still going to follow a similar path.’

While thinking about the Academy Awards, Soo-hyun thought of director Kim Eul-hong for the first time in a long time.

She, who met through ‘Shadow Road’, was a person who left the Korean film industry and established herself in the United States before returning.

He was foul-mouthed and nervous, like someone lacking calcium, but his skills were amazing.

‘…I’m a bit reluctant when they ask me to work again. Well, that’s not what’s important right now.’

Suhyun, who had been distracted by other thoughts, rolled over and lay down on the bed.

‘Marionette’ is starting filming. Entrance ceremony and Academy Awards to be held in February.

After organizing his upcoming schedule in his head, he got out of bed.

Once the YouTube angle came out, I had to start filming.

“hey. I heard that among the new students this time, SHINee Pink members and Kang Soo-hyun are among them? Where is the reception venue?”

Harim, the head of the acting department, had to endure the behavior of Ha Gil-woong, a senior in his high school class, who boasted of his personality by kicking his chair.

Even if he was that kind of person, he couldn’t behave the same way as the senior because he was a senior.

“yes. “It’s true that they enrolled, but they’re busy so they won’t come to the welcome party.”

Jinang University’s Department of Performance and Video Creation, which is classified as one of the top acting departments, has one or two celebrities enrolled every year.

There were some who got along well with the students and lived a normal school life, but there were also quite a few who only gave their names and focused on outside activities.

Additionally, most non-essential welcoming parties for new students were not attended.

It is a place where you can drink with people you are not close to and gossip may arise, so avoid it in moderation.

“The cubs get lost. “If a senior like the sky comes, he will come.”

Although Gilwoong was probably unaware of the situation, he tried to catch the discipline of freshmen who had not even entered the school by making ridiculous excuses.

Harim smiled, trying hard to endure the feeling of being put on top of him.

‘What kind of discipline does a person who hasn’t even served in the military have?’

In my mind, I was cursing Gilwoong, who was nothing without the title of senior.

If it weren’t for his position as a manager, he would have said what he wanted to say according to his personality, but his position was the problem.

“Anyway, give me a place. “Are there any pretty ones among these riders?”

“…It’s still before orientation.”

“This department can’t do its job. “I need to quickly contact them and gather them together.”

“Haha… sorry.”

Harim smiled even though he felt the blood draining from the back of his neck.

In a situation where my classmates were getting jobs, I felt equally resentful of the people who were attached to the school and the other seniors who dropped such bombs on the school.

‘I really want to accept it.’

Harim concentrated on his work, clutching Gilwoong’s collar a hundred times more, even if only in his imagination.

Even if a person like that was abandoned, there was still a lot for him to do.

“action.”

“….”

As the camera rolled, Soohyun began to solve the open workbook.

Su-hyeon only moves his hands in the same posture as the light that brightly illuminates only the desk, and the sound of the pen crunching.

As the static scene continued, the door opened without a knock.

“son? Are you studying?”

Actress Lee Hye-ji, who played the role of Jin-oh’s mother, rolled her eyes first to check Su-hyeon’s behavior and smiled artificially.

As a ‘watchdog who holds her son in check,’ she did not take her eyes off Su-hyeon, who was studying with wide-open eyes.

“okay. Let’s work a little harder. I have to come in first place in this midterm exam. “I’m not top of my grade, I’m top of my class, but I can’t be pushed down either.”

She imitated a gentle smile and gently patted Suhyun’s shoulder.

Suhyun didn’t react to her and just focused on the workbook.

“Then Mom, I’ll go out and see. study hard.”

She said goodbye, as if she liked the lack of reaction, and left the room.

Sweet.

Only when the door was completely closed did Suhyeon stop writing his pen.

He bit his lip and exhaled very softly.

“Cut. Hmm… Soohyun, try sighing a little faster. “Miss Hyeji heard that sigh and opened the door again.”

“Like this?”

“okay. “With the feeling that every breath is being controlled through close surveillance.”

“How about adding the line ‘son’ the moment you open the door?”

“Good. Let’s go like that.”

Soo-hyeon turned over the workbook while paying attention to Director Jin and Hye-ji, who were actively arguing with each other.

If I went through each page like this, I felt like I would be able to solve the whole book by the end of filming.

‘I just finished the college entrance exam…’

Are other high school seniors studying under this kind of pressure?

As Su-hyeon had never studied under external pressure, she did not understand the situation of someone urging her to study.

And I seriously wondered whether the genre of this movie was horror.

“Okay then, back to action.”

There was no scenario and the filming continued in chronological order, so there was no going back.

Once the puzzle was put together, it was not filmed again, and the director just accepted the happenings, weather, etc. that happened at that moment.

Pop.

Even if the pen broke while applying too much force, the actor proceeded with the scene calmly as if it were the original scene.

‘Happenings are okay, but ad-libs aren’t… I’m still not sure.’

Director Jin Yun-hwa did not tolerate actors twisting scenes with their own intentions, but was tolerant of ‘situations that just happened to turn out that way.’

While standing up to read, if you get your tongue twisted, take a wrong step and stumble, or even break your pen like you did now, as long as it wasn’t intentional and the drawing looked good, you passed.

‘Even if my leg broke during filming, I applied it to the character instead of waiting for it to heal. Should I say it’s like everyday life with some acting involved… Role exploration?’

Director Jin Yun-hwa’s work had an ambiguous boundary between characters and actors.

The actor changes places according to the character’s movements, accepts certain accidents or situations as they are…

It was more appropriate to say that he experienced the role rather than immersing himself in it, and I got the strong impression that there was no framework.

‘But still, this looks good on screen.’

Suhyun thought of herself reflected on the screen just a moment ago.

The person pictured in it was definitely ‘Jin Oh’, and his feelings of silently resisting his parents’ pressure were captured.

“Soohyun, you don’t have much fear, do you?”

After finishing the scene and moving to a new location, Hyeji, who had joined in, asked with a bright smile.

Unlike her creepy expression just now, she looked cheerful outside the camera.

“Because it’s acting.”

“hmm. Then, even though I’m acting, I have to try to show my genuine surprise on screen. Jin-oh’s mom is a bit of a creepy character. “I think it would be good if Soo-hyun, who plays Jin-oh, feels those emotions keenly.”

“Ah, yes…”

Although Hyeji wasn’t a bad person, her ideas often wandered in the wrong direction.

Soo-hyeon seriously pondered why there were many actresses whose words and actions were incomprehensible.

I was curious whether they were losing their minds because of the bad work environment or if they were just like that.

“Soohyun, what is the atmosphere like in Hollywood? “Is it very different from Korea?”

“It’s different, but it’s more similar than you think. “Both there and here, the focus is on portraying the character through dialogue and actions.”

“Wasn’t it difficult to film in America?”

“First of all, it’s English. “I think it’s advantageous to have a low accent.”

“Yes…”

To Hyeji’s curious question, Suhyun gave an answer that he repeated several times.

After he was nominated for an Academy Award, the number of people asking about the Hollywood environment increased.

These were people who considered Soo-hyeon a model who had successfully entered the market and tried to refer to his methods.

Each time, Soo-hyeon, who had nothing much to say, brought up the main topic appropriately.

‘But you can’t explain it by saying, ‘Go back, correct your English pronunciation, and audition for a successful work.’

He shed tears like a crocodile bird, saying that this was a hardship felt only by those who returned.
