I Will Live As An Actor Chapter 38

I will live as an actor Episode 38

Like the language of the cucumber flower, a young man who sometimes looks simple but has deep eyes. Jeans and a white short-sleeved T-shirt match very well, like a picture. Just looking at the dogs playing in the garden and the greenery, you might think it’s a country house, but surprisingly, it’s one of the wealthiest villages in Seoul.

‘I knew the family was rich, but I never thought it would be this much.’

In her past life, she did not know that she was rich. According to a rumor circulating in the entertainment industry, there was a time when a second-generation chaebol asked for a serious relationship, and I thought it might have been true.

‘You said your father was a judge, right?’

I heard that it comes from a family of lawyers for generations. You said that there are many prosecutors from the central investigation department not only on your father’s side but also on your maternal side. Is it because it resembles the nature of a lawyer? It is the nature of clearly drawing a line between right and wrong. Ironically, despite being born and raised in such a strict family, I was somehow very free-spirited.

“I don’t have any British students, but I hear a lot about them.”

A kind-hearted grandmother serves a meal. Contrary to what was said, there was a variety of food spread out on the table that would not be out of place even if it were a sumptuous feast. The grandmother looks at the young man with a happy smile. The expression on his face was as warm as if he was looking at his grandchild.

“I can’t tell you how much my daughter’s personality has changed thanks to the British student. Before, she only thought about herself, but now I see her. These days, she often goes to volunteer work with me, and now she even sends gifts to the children at the orphanage first. Even at the filming site, the British student “They said they learned a lot of things thanks to me. Because of that, I really wanted to treat them to a meal like this someday.”

“I wondered why my older sister was so kind, but now I see that her personality resembles my mother’s.”

“Hoho, thank you for saying that. I don’t have anything to wish for anymore. I’m worried that my daughter is too shy. I wish she could just find her partner and get married…”

That was then.

“mom!”

Even though the years have passed, the actress is still an actress. Park Soo-young is an actress with a bright appearance like a flower blooming in the warm spring sunlight.

“kid!”

“Have you seen a kid this tall?”

“If you’re done eating, get up quickly and have a meeting at the company today. The CEO is looking for you and has something to say.”

“So, I said I would go on my own, but my sister didn’t really ask me to come home.”

“Look at how shameless you are after getting a delicious meal! You were planning to ride a bicycle to save on transportation costs. No matter how spring it is, you should avoid direct sunlight. Do you think your skin will last a thousand years? If you don’t take care of it like this, you will get older. Are you hooked?”

England, despite Park Soo-young’s nagging, deftly emptied one bowl of rice all the way to the floor before standing up and showing up.

“British student, come visit again!”

The grandmother (Park Soo-young’s mother) waves her hand and sees her off. It feels very affectionate, like watching a grandchild leaving their country home. England opened the car window and waved at them. After passing through the alley and losing sight of her mother, the story continues.

“I thought your mother didn’t know?”

“What are you worried about?”

“I mean, my sister is a doctor in love.”

“This is real!”

Park Soo-young and England argue in the car. The manager, watching the scene through the rearview mirror, smiled happily. In her past life, Park Soo-young was famous for being strict and sensitive on set. Even among actresses, there were a lot of people saying that her momentum was extraordinary. But Park Soo-young these days is more affectionate than anyone else. Especially when it comes to your own people.

Youth.

The drama Youth is a work that depicts the ever-changing period between a boy and a young man, somewhat like a change of seasons. It can cause fever like a cold that comes with the spring breeze, and it is also as bright as flowers blooming in spring.

It would be a lie to say that it is not attractive because it depicts a time that everyone reminisces and misses. Moreover, since the writer was Hwang Soo-kyung, box office success was almost like a predetermined formula.

– Representative, please, please! You must invite them!

It was unexpected. I couldn’t have imagined that PD Kim Jin of SBC Broadcasting would come and ask for help in person. Just like countless grains of sand spread on a white sandy beach. The number of actors who wanted to appear in writer Hwang Soo-kyung’s work was immeasurable. Therefore, when it comes time for her to write her next work, entertainment reporters also keep their antennas up, wondering who the chosen one will be.

“It’s definitely an attractive piece of work, but…”

CEO Seonghwan Kim licked his dry lips. Didn’t you say it yourself? They say your school days will never come back. Therefore, the boy only appeared occasionally as a cameo and did not appear in any other works. A prepared actor can act at any time. However, Kim Seong-hwan’s theory was that an actor with an empty part of his heart would eventually find gold. It was then.

“CEO Kim! I heard people came and went from SBC!”

A spoiled animal with a wide, toad-like face bursts into the representative office.

“As expected, Hwang Soo-kyung is Hwang Soo-kyung! Just looking at the synopsis makes the writing come alive. It was worth it for me to drink alcohol to those people at SBC! I don’t know how many times I coaxed them when they asked for a good role and they insisted that they wouldn’t give it to them until the end! “This is Park Min-cheol coming forward, right?”

Isn’t there a saying, ‘Geun-muk-ja-heuk (近墨者黑)’? Hwang Cheol-soo recruited actors who were similar to himself. Park Min-cheol is one of them. Aside from a flashy face, his acting skills are insignificant. There was also a rumor going around that Hwang Cheol-soo sometimes took him out as a face-to-face lady when entertaining people.

“Hands down, England has come forward.”

“what?”

“Producer Kim was very kind! He asked Young-Kuk to explain the role well. So don’t pay attention and look elsewhere!”

“CEO Kim! Let’s talk openly about it. How much is Jang Young-guk’s down payment? Let’s say it hasn’t been profitable for several years now, and it’s not stagnant. It was the same three years ago. If a child actor won the Rookie of the Year award at the year-end awards ceremony, they need to keep up the momentum. Ji! You stopped everything and only appeared as a cameo. No matter how great Baek Jang-hoon is, if it happens like this, it’s no different from a bright dog! We’re not some kind of philanthropist, and you’re just saying, is this your business alone?”

CEO Seonghwan Kim clenched his molars. I feel like I want to punch that wide face right now. But you have to be patient. Isn’t it said that a gentleman’s revenge lasts ten years?

Over the past three years, we have gradually gathered evidence of illegal activities, including embezzlement, committed by Hwang Cheol-soo. If I had been impatient, it would have quickly turned into a muddy fight. However, Seonghwan Kim had great patience and knew how to knockdown his opponent.

“CEO Kim! Instead of doing that, let’s hand this over to Mincheol.”

Seonghwan Kim felt that the time had come.

* * *

I wonder if Hemingway’s first line would be like this. His deep eyes indulge as if he would not miss even a single line of dialogue. It is overflowing with vitality, like a fish jumping out onto land. Each and every word wriggles as if it were alive, so the neck and neck do not move and become hungry.

“how is it?”

CEO Seonghwan Kim asks carefully. He believed that the company’s policy was important when choosing a script, but the actor’s opinion was even more important. Just as a painter doesn’t want to leave a stain on his painting, an actor also doesn’t want to leave a stain on his acting.

“What do you have to do after asking the CEO? If you’re a writer like Hwang Soo-kyung, you have to confess even if you can’t eat. Now, England, you have to act again. How long are you going to keep it hidden away in your jewelry box? Well, I can’t enjoy my school days just because I’m an actor. Crucially, I am. Just looking at it, it seems like writer Hwang Soo-kyung wrote with Yeong-Kuk as the main character. Look at him. He’s tall, broad, shoulders, and has eyes that resemble calves. This is just him!”

As Park Soo-young said, writer Hwang Soo-kyung must have written with a child actor named Jang Young-guk in mind. Just looking at the rumors floating around the broadcasting station, it was like that. Doesn’t Hwang Soo-kyung decide on the main character before she starts writing? In a way, it could be said to be a happy concern at a time when everyone wants to be Hwang Soo-kyung’s man. It was then.

“CEO Kim! Let’s talk about something we couldn’t talk about before, to Mincheol, who wrote the screenplay!”

Hwang Cheol-soo bursts open the door to the representative office and enters without permission, saying he can’t give other people his dog’s habits. Park Soo-young casts her eyes at him, who resembles a broad toad. A strong stench like food waste lingers in the representative office.

“do.”

England put down the script and looked up. Hwang Cheol-soo’s eyebrows narrowed fiercely, perhaps because of one firm word.

“Hmm, then let’s give Min-cheol another role. Anyway, if England gets that guy as the main character, we can get a few supporting roles as well. Still, I’ve recruited him, so let’s take advantage of this opportunity!”

“Can I call myself an actor if I can’t act?”

“What? Look at this brat-headed bastard! The CEOs are talking to each other right now, so why bother interfering! CEO Kim, my sister-in-law, told me that Jang Yeong-guk has been fooled from the start, so even when matters need to be resolved at the director level, CEO Kim always takes matters into his own hands. Now that I come forward, he’s not like that!”

It’s not even funny. Hwang Cheol-soo adds to the sight of Park Soo-young laughing beside him.

“Why does Actor Park look like that again? I told you this last time. How can it be so difficult to go out for a drink and make people sell out like that? Doesn’t Actor Park need a good role?”

I’ve been holding back, but I can’t hold on any longer. Park Soo-young looks like she’s going to get up from her seat at any moment and hit Hwang Cheol-soo’s narrow face with the high heels she’s wearing. Considering the nature of the event, it’s more than enough to happen.

“Stop talking bullshit.”

“what?”

England stands up and faces Toad. The thick cheeks wriggle angrily. Like a cicada clinging to an old tree, it is a toad that can barely hold onto the tall British owner by the collar. The appearance is so unsightly that it is even ugly.

“CEO Kim! I need to correct this bastard’s speaking habits today!”

It was then.

The doll falls sideways with a dull sound. CEO Kim Seong-hwan is watching Hwang Cheol-soo, who fell with an angry look on his face. Hwang Cheol-soo is so dumbfounded by the sudden situation that he cannot speak easily.

Britain, which had been saved, was also unable to hide its surprise. CEO Kim Seong-hwan, who I have been watching for a while, was a gentle and gentle sheep. But Britain won’t know. In fact, it was the representative who was saved, not him. Seonghwan Kim scolds with shining eyes.

“How dare you touch my actor?”

You bastard!
