This life starts from a child role (295)
“Ah! I’m sad! ah! “It’s sad!”
“….”
Sang-il sipped the coffee in front of him while looking at Chae-min, who was throwing a tantrum like a child asking to buy something.
The way he was running around looked very similar to Crown actor Kang Mo.
‘When I was young, I was like an adult, but now I’m wondering why I’ve become a spoiled child…’
Sang-il, who briefly remembered Chae-min’s childhood when he was not like a child, put his mouth to the coffee cup once again.
At least my actor, Kang, was able to get away with something sweet, but the boss in front of me had a temperament so bad that I had to leave him alone until he was relieved.
“This is humiliating. “At this age, I don’t have enough strength to deal with even a single mob… This is why I don’t like America.”
“You just don’t like places where you can’t easily exert influence?”
“That’s it.”
“Ah yes.”
Chaemin seemed to feel a little better after yelling once and sat down on the sofa and picked up the coffee in front of him.
He drank his coffee slowly, as if trying to catch his breath, and only when the cup was empty did he lower the cup he was holding.
“If we handle it directly, it won’t be good for Soo-hyun, and we have no choice but to stab him from the side.”
“As expected, that’s how it goes….”
“Soohyun took care of it, but she wasn’t seriously injured? “Besides, he’s a racist who takes out his anger on Mija. I can’t have that kind of thing next to my child.”
Chaemin started to organize the situation with a calm face.
As an agency, Crown was an agency that had grown only in Korea to exert influence over the production company.
His personal connections are concentrated in Korea, and his overseas influence is limited to Asia, such as China and Japan.
This means that it is difficult to directly pressure companies in the United States.
“It looks like Mr. Vladimir is an investor. How about taking advantage of him?”
“no. What that person has for Soohyun is still at the level of interest. Besides, if you lend a hand in something like this, you will be shackled later.”
In the adult world, and especially in the entertainment industry, pure goodwill is as rare as a living planet.
Knowing that, Sang-il nodded lightly.
“Then, of course, it’s going to be legal.”
“You listened to my instructions and noticed them.”
“Well, that’s true.”
We were already digging up information about Benjamin.
The speed was a little slow because the information was from overseas, but as long as you had money, it was easy to observe a person even if you were on the other side of the world.
“There’s no way a person like this would only do this to Suhyun.”
Although Chae-min cared deeply for his actors, he avoided strategies that could backfire.
In a situation where Soo-hyun’s shield was thin, it was dangerous to hold the production company or director responsible.
“We need to give other actors some money and urge them to hire a lawyer and sue.”
“We will take measures to ensure that the truth is not revealed.”
“okay. There aren’t many actors who want to advance to the U.S., so I feel like I’ve neglected the U.S. side a bit. Should I start working on the base soon?”
“I don’t think it’s a bad idea to acquire a small agency.”
“That’s right. I don’t think it would be a bad idea to hire someone from there. “I’ll have to think about it.”
“By the way, I heard that the CEO, actor Lee Seo-han, mentioned ‘Pollen Syndrome’ to our actor.”
“Oh, that. It’s pretty fun. Have you seen the webtoon?”
“no. “I just checked the script.”
Sang-il, who had brought up another topic to distract Chae-min, who was still flirtatious, shook his head excitedly.
Although some time had passed since he changed his career to become an actor manager, he still had a dim view of his work.
The ability to judge whether a work will be successful or what is interesting is not something that can be done only with one’s head.
“The original is pretty good too. “It lacks 2% of the writing and directing skills of the writer, so it has gained cult popularity among core fans, but the scenes are very good for filming.”
“Is that so….”
“The filmmaking company is Mir, and the director at Mir is a good person. “It’s also quite nice that it is the first Korean drama to use CG.”
Chaemin calmly recited his evaluation.
The reason many of his agency’s actors entrusted him with choosing their projects was because he had great instincts.
“If the external factors are so, what about the internal factors?”
“Well… I can’t say for sure because all the actors haven’t been decided yet, but if the letter is included and Su-hyeon is participating, they will be quite involved.”
“I see….”
“First of all, the adaptor is the most important. The two biggest factors that ruin dramas are adaptors who arbitrarily add their own ideas into the drama, and directors who direct without even reading the original work. “First of all, the director said he was one of the fans who read the original work, so it was okay. The problem is the adaptation.”
The sight of Chae-min spouting out her thoughts was that of a capable representative.
Sang-il felt like a leader even though his personality was atrocious, and he took Chae-min’s words to heart.
As he had been by his side for a long time, Sang-il trusted Chae-min except for personal matters.
* * *
Soo-hyun, who repaid Benjamin well, continued filming smoothly after that.
Scenes before the escape, such as hanging out with the test subjects or becoming friends with Lucy, were also filled in one by one.
[Soo Are you always looking at something different these days? What’s going on?]
[Oh, Sam. Yes… I have to take the qualification exam soon.]
[Qualification exam? Is it a certification test?]
[Hmm… So, it is a test that recognizes that I have the same abilities as students who completed regular high school courses.]
[Aha, you are talking about the GED (general equivalency diploma). Actually, I was a homeschooler myself, so I needed it when I went to community college.]
She checked the math problems that Suhyeon was holding, as if she was fascinated by Suhyun holding the workbook.
And I hated it.
[Oh what is this? You’re paying this horrible thing for your GED? The passing line is too high.]
[This is a high school freshman course.]
[Are Koreans crazy? Oh, I’m sorry.]
[It’s okay. I hate math, too.]
Su-hyeon smiled warmly when she saw Sam start spitting out harsh words, as if he didn’t like the math problem.
As I was constantly feeling the same way while studying math for the college entrance exam, I didn’t feel like it was anyone else’s problem.
‘Isn’t it enough to do math at the level of a high school student and leave the rest to Excel and calculators?…’
Although the National Preceptor was annoyed by his persistent questions about the details of the ancient Korean language, it was math that was holding him back.
I followed the steps carefully and the foundation wasn’t bad, but just because the foundation was strong didn’t mean the pillars were strong.
Every time he listened to EBC’s video lectures, he was struck by the conflict of ‘Should I give up on regular admissions and think about recruiting celebrities?’
‘Still, it’s a good thing to be confident.’
Su-hyeon has consistently maintained good grades while juggling school and acting.
This is because no matter how much work I do, I do not want to neglect my position as a student.
That situation continued until the first semester of high school when he dropped out, and Su-hyeon remembered the reward that came with it.
I worked so hard, but it was a little unfair that I was the only one to pass over the results that everyone could see.
‘If I want to say later that I studied well, it’s better to get decent grades… But if I mess up the CSAT, does that mean I won’t be able to talk about my studies? ‘It’s a bit unfair, isn’t it?’
While Su-hyeon was lost in thought, Sam lost interest and left to find his manager.
Su-hyeon, who was left alone to solve the problem diligently, only stretched out after finishing the part she had aimed for.
“You really have good concentration!”
“Thank you, brother. “Didn’t you get scolded by Sang-il a lot…?”
“It is not wrong to say that it is my responsibility to protest on the spot. We need to reflect and get better! “For the actor’s rights!”
“thank you.”
“What. Actor, I don’t know much about Korean history or the language, but I can help with math and science, so please let me know whenever you need it.”
“Oh, that’s overtime. “No matter how much we live together, that’s not the case.”
“it’s okay. If you request an allowance, it will be provided. “Crown’s welfare is the best.”
“Aha… yes.”
While Su-hyeon and Hyun-soo were talking, the staff who finished checking the wires visited Su-hyeon.
Thinking that it was finally time to start, Su-hyeon put down the workbook he was holding on the chair and walked towards the scene.
[The wind from the electric fan is quite strong, so you have to be careful. Even if you tie a wire behind and use safety devices as much as possible, you have to take care of your own safety first.]
[Yes.]
The staff paid close attention as they tied a wire belt around Su-hyeon’s waist.
Unlike Sam, who was constantly hanging from the ceiling, Su-hyeon had to let go of Sam and fall to the floor.
Strong winds and falling.
Since it was a scene where you had to overcome two conditions while acting, more concentration was needed to avoid making mistakes.
[Please raise me!]
After Soohyun and Sam finished putting on their equipment, the wire pulled them up into the air.
Su-hyeon, who was hanging in the air, grabbed Sam’s ankle, which was supported by a wire.
[The strong wind is coming!]
The wind from the large fan hit Su-hyeon and Sam.
Unlike Sam, who was firmly fixed, Suhyun, who had few strings, was shaking loosely.
And at that moment, Sam’s new brother collapsed once.
[no! Don’t abandon Thirteen! Take Thirteen too!] When
Sam lost balance for a moment, Soohyun shouted, desperately holding on to her ankles.
He showed his urgency by tightening the protector around his ankle to the point where his tendons were visible.
[Christy…]
[Why did we cooperate! Don’t give up on Thirteen…! Please!]
After ‘Lucy’ defeated ‘Doctor Abraham’, the facility collapsed helplessly.
‘Doctor Abraham’ made his last move to prevent the test subjects from leaving the facility.
The only test subjects at the scene at the time were ‘Thirteen’, who had barely arrived after defeating ‘Lucy’ and ‘Dr. Scylla’, so only the two of them escaped the scene.
And of the two, only Lucy had the ability to fly.
[Ugh!]
‘Lucy’s’ transformation created wings.
Normally, it would not have been difficult for her to fly with one ‘Thirteen’, but the ‘Thirteen’ hanging on to the injured ‘Lucy’ was a heavy sandbag that caused her to fall.
In the end, the only options left for Lucy, who succeeded in escaping, were ‘Will she abandon Thirteen, survive alone, and reach human society?’ and ‘Will she die together?’ There were only these two.
[Thirteen is your friend! Don’t throw it away!]
No matter how much she cared for ‘Lucy,’ the most important thing to her secondary personality, Christie, was ‘Thirteen.’
Therefore, Soo-hyun played Christy, who was filled with betrayal and expressed anger.
[I know… I won’t throw it away…]
Sam recited the line with difficulty as the words continued to arouse his guilt.
And at that moment, Suhyeon, who let out a small moan, opened her closed eyes.
[…Lucy, it’s okay.]
He spoke sweetly, looking very relaxed, unlike a few minutes ago.
Sam’s eyes shook mercilessly as he looked at Soo-hyeon.
[Thirteen.]
[Please, at least, look at the world that your friends talked about.]
No matter how strong they have become, ‘Thirteen’s’ kind and sacrificial personality has not changed.
Therefore, in a situation where ‘Thirteen’ had to kill both of them or die alone, he chose the latter.
[I hope you have good luck.]
[Thirtyeeeein-!] As
Suhyun let go without any hesitation, the fan turned off at just the right time and the fixed wire line was released.
In the midst of the helpless fall, Suhyeon kept a calm smile and stared at Sam.
Soon his vision was covered with green.
