Within the movie trade, there’s a phrase: ‘Unfold and fold.’

It means to unfold out after which clear up, and even in industrial movies, they clear up rapidly after outside capturing. Brief movies needed to be twice as quick to avoid wasting on manufacturing prices.

Anyhow.

-Duuk!

Prime actress Hong Hye-yeon obtained right into a van parked by the roadside. she leaned her head again in opposition to the headrest, carrying a white lengthy padded jacket, and sighed closely.

“Whew-”

She casually swept her lengthy hair again. It regarded like a scene from a shampoo industrial.

As she closed her lengthy padded coat, Hong Hye-yeon mirrored on the feelings and scenes left in her thoughts.

‘It felt totally different from watching it on a monitor. It’s totally different whenever you expertise it with your individual eyes. Did I really feel a bit intimidated within the center? Why?’Witness the debut of this chapter, unveiled via Ñôv€l–B1n.

She gnawed at her decrease lip as she questioned herself.

‘I felt that my appearing was missing whereas attempting to match the appearing.’

‘I don’t know, it appeared like I used to be being cussed from the center.’

She even requested Director Shin Dong-chun for a retake out of dissatisfaction. As retakes elevated, Kang Woojin’s Kim Ryu-jin turned deeper, and the hole didn’t shrink.

After all, her appearing wasn’t dangerous total.

No, slightly it was good. Director Shin Dong-chun was happy. Even Hong Hye-yeon was among the many high actresses in Korea when it comes to appearing. It’s simply that Kang Woojin was an unbelievable existence.

‘How does he do it? Once I see him, it looks like he’s lived on the earth of the drama for years. That gaze- Is it simply expertise?’

She had joined ‘Exorcism’ to know Kang Woojin’s insane appearing, however having skilled it, she felt much more entangled. Furthermore, she obtained a brand new shock this time.

“······Kim Ryu-jin had a totally totally different tone from Park Dae-ri. How can he distinguish the 2 characters so clearly whereas engaged on two tasks concurrently?”

Park Dae-ri was sticky and crafty, whereas this time’s Kim Ryu-jin had a relaxed and stuffed with on a regular basis life. Kang Woojin’s Park Dae-ri and Kim Ryu-jin have been utterly separate. This was a ability {that a} rookie may by no means have.

“Is it a number of personalities-”

A number of personalities. Sure, it appeared like a number of personalities. Distinct personalities. All of a sudden, Hong Hye-yeon sighed.

“Is it one thing that may be achieved via studying?”

Even Kang Woojin discovered it on his personal. For now, it was unknown. It is perhaps unimaginable. However she needed to preserve watching. Kang Woojin. As a result of she wished to behave higher.

Quickly, Hong Hye-yeon.

-Swooosh.

She took out her telephone and referred to as the top of her company. That’s, CEO Choi Sung-geun.

“Bro! How a lot is Kang Woojin’s signing charge?? What? Isn’t it a bit low??”

In the meantime, contained in the café the place the capturing cleanup was in full swing.

Kang Woojin is sitting by the café window, which was usually shabby. Ready to get within the automobile with the staff. His present outfit was very a lot Kim Ryu-jin, however his face was expressionless.

Nevertheless, inside he felt fairly good.

‘I did it.’

Particularly, there was a scene the place Hong Hye-yeon hugged Kang Woojin from behind. It was not a minimize crammed with affection. Relatively, it was a scene that gave him goosebumps. However a again hug is a again hug. The heat of Hong Hye-yeon was clear on Woojin’s again. It was one thing that will make Woojin, an atypical citizen, smile.

‘No manner, I obtained a again hug from Hong Hye-yeon? Now, I’ve one other factor to boast about to Kim Dae-young.’

That’s when it occurred.

“Woojin.”

A male voice woke Kang Woojin, misplaced in his fantasies. Turning round, he noticed Director Shin Dong-chun, smiling.

“What are you excited about so critically?”

A again hug, Woojin couldn’t say, so he dodged the query with different phrases. Since they have been filming, the appearing have to be good. Kang Woojin muttered sternly.

“I used to be excited about the following scene.”

There was no lie as blatant as this. Director Shin Dong-chun, who had no manner of understanding this, tucked his capturing script into his again pocket.

“Don’t overdo it. You’re already doing greater than sufficient. If you happen to collapse, we’ll should cease every part, you realize?”

“I’ll watch out.”

“Effectively, I was a drama PD. I used to be first rate, you realize? As a result of a variety of leisure trade representatives attend the script studying, I assumed in the event that they noticed you, they’d positively provide you with their enterprise card.”

“I see.”

“Are you nervous? Um- I don’t learn about different recommendation, however newcomers or unknowns normally don’t get a signing bonus when becoming a member of an organization. Relatively, they pay to get in.”

“…”

‘It feels a bit unusual. A bittersweet feeling?’

‘Once I heard the OK on the finish of the shoot, I even felt a chill.’

It was a brief movie, however his first film, his first capturing, his first main function.

Every thing was new and unfamiliar to Kang Woojin, and whereas the continual five-day shoot was terribly exhausting, it was enjoyable.
