Chapter 31
Producer Na Jinho and writer Jo Seokwon’s work .
The lead actor of this work, Han Jehoon, was reading the script alone in his room.
“Hmm—. As expected, the script is really good.”
Han Jehoon muttered as he closed the script and put it on his desk.
It was a project that was almost guaranteed to be canceled, but I’m glad it went ahead. Production costs also increased
Think positive thoughts for a mont.
I felt a mixture of doubt and worry.
In the end, actor Kang Jinseok will be with you until the end.
The reason was Kang Jinseok.
When the production of the drama was confird, Han Jehoon decided not to pay attention to the previous incident of the investnt withdrawal.
It was all in the past anyway.
Kang Jinseok, a new actor, was harassed.
There were rumors that he used his personal connections to get a role. There’s no way such a kid can act well, what should I do?
This was the thought of most of the actors in Spring Without Flowers as well as Han Jehoon.
Among them, Han Jehoon was particularly worried about Jinseok’s ability.
After all, this was the first ti in 10 years that the movie received an award for its leading actor.
If this opportunity is ruined by another actor’s bad performance…’.
I thought I’d be really angry.
” Whoa.”
But there was nothing Han Jehoon could do now.
I’m just trying to remove my doubts as much as possible and praying that Jinseok has excellent skills.
He can’t possibly be good at acting.
However, the negative thoughts that once ca to my mind were not easy to get out of my head.
***
I thought so.
Han Jehoon was now reading the script for In Spring Without Flowers. But he couldn’t concentrate on acting properly.
It was all because of Jinseok.
“I am Chisuke Nakamura.”
Jinseok spoke with a voice that seed to flow with cold air.
The acting in every line or word was unusual.
“You’re so good.” No, I’m not good at it. It’s …..”
Han Jehoon was drawn to Jinseok’s voice, tone, and eyes.
No, to be exact, he was being eaten.
Not only Han Jehoon, but all the actors in the room look at Jinseok with surprised eyes.
Even the staff who knew Jinseok’s acting skills fell in love with Jinseok’s acting.
I shouldn’t have misunderstood. This friend is not a parachute.
Han Jehoon’s first “Kang Jinseok” was just such a handso new actor.
And I think he’s very polite.
So Han Jehoon had no choice but to doubt Jinseok’s ability even more.
Jinseok looked so nice and gentle to play Nakamura.
But it was all unfounded.
“Let
explain so things that you trashy Koreans should keep in your lives.”
Whenever Jinseok said his lines, Han Jehoon seed to stand on his head. So Jinseok’s acting was cold and cold.
And even bigger. . . . No, the scary thing is…”
Jinseok acted so comfortably. Without any effort, it seed as if he really took “Nakamura” out of the script.
I was wrong. Kang Jinseok is…’.
He was a real actor.
***
The first day of shooting “In Spring Without Flowers.
The pre-shoot inspection was in full swing.
“Please make sure that this shoot ends safely and without anyone getting hurt!”
“Please!”
As producer Na Jinho bowed loudly, other crew mbers followed suit and bowed as well.
Producer Na Jinho, who had finished bowing, looked around at the crew and said.
“If you want to bow now, do it, and we’ll clean up and start filming.”
Then so actors stepped forward.
“Laugh!”
“Co on!”
Among them were n in tight suits with exaggerated coughs.
n whose suits were about to burst as they kneeled and bowed. They were the guys from Seongsu Warehouse.
“Just dress comfortably. I have to change all my clothes anyway.
There’s only one reason why they ca all the way to the distant set on the weekend.
Because they were cast as extras.
“Don’t get hurt!”
“The ratings are 10,000%!”
“Let’s go! Let’s go! Let’s go!”
Old n bowing with a strange spirit.
Producer Na Jinho couldn’t stop laughing either, because he was the first one to do such extras.
Of course, I was so embarrassed that my face turned red when I recomnded them.
I didn’t expect them to be cast.
The day I went to the station to read, I showed producer Na Jinho pictures of the n and asked him carefully.
“If you haven’t found an extras yet, what about them?”
Producer Na Jinho did not show much interest at first. However, producer Na Jinho, who was skeptical, cast the n as soon as he saw them in real life.
The reason was that n with “acting skills” in their faces were superior to those with moderate acting skills.
However, other staff mbers were reluctant.
It was inevitable. Even though they were extras, they had never acted before.
But.
“Ah! How can such a soft lady use it when she moves her luggage? There are guys like us. Hey, Park Chunsam! Don’t play around and help
with this!”
“That’s it! Cara teacher! That’s no way to carry a bag! When you’re 40, your back will go out! Do you want to give all the money you earned from your work to the doctor?”
“Carrying things. It’s the trick, not the strength. Look at this. Ugh-cha. How does it sound, isn’t it?”
As you can see, the n volunteered to help the staff. At the sa ti, I was getting closer and closer to the staff, and I was lting into the set.
“Wow, thank you. People who ca to shoot don’t have to help
with this.”
“Laughing. What do you an, thank you! We’re the sa colleagues, but it’s natural. By the way, see that handso guy over there? That’s our Jinseok! Please take care of him, because his a wild one.”
Of course, the sha was still on my face.

The preparations for the filming continued quickly, and the filming began earlier than expected.
Now we’re in the middle of the first episode.
This scene shows Koreans living peacefully in a marketplace.
It was nothing special, but it was very special to .
“Oh, the soup is amazing. Jumo! One more bowl!”
“I’m glad you ca without food. Another bowl for
too!”
“Oh my gosh! You guys. I haven’t even paid my last loan, do you have any money?”
“Ah~ Jumo. Why are you so harsh? I’ll pay you back double next week!”
Because it was a scene where the n appeared.
“Mrs. . . . There’s no sense of incompatibility at all.
It was a lot of dialog for an extra. Still, the n delivered their lines perfectly.
Maybe it’s because they always said when you changed “master” to “auntie” in your lines.
“Cut! Oh, that’s great! Let’s go with number 7!”
With a satisfied scream from PD Na Jinho, the next take began imdiately.
Whether they practiced a lot or were just lucky, the filming went off almost imdiately.
My turn has finally co.
“Actors, please prepare for the scene 14 tis!”
“Extras 13 to 26, please skip the scene, and everyone else, please go inside!”
“Male number 12! Put the rice soup down and co out quickly! “There’s a lot left, so eat it after the shooting!”
A noisy scene ensued.
I closed my eyes and inhaled deeply.
“Wow.”
The climax of the first episode is scene 14.
“Nakamura” appears for the first ti and changes the peaceful everyday life of the village.
I skimd the script I had in my hand. I already knew it perfectly, but I felt like I had to do it because I was nervous.
It’s like reading a book before an exam.
Then soone tapped
on the shoulder and said.
“Jinseok! Are you nervous?”
It was Han Jehoon.
“Oh, yes, sir. I haven’t fild much, so…”
“Oh, don’t be nervous. “Jinseok will definitely do well.”
I saw Han Jehoon for the first ti at a drama reading.
It hadn’t been long since we had t, but we were already quite close.
“Oh, and I’m telling you just in case.”
“Yes.”
“If you want to ad-lib, feel free. I like to ad-lib when I’m acting.”
“It’s ad-lib.”
Ad-libbing is the flower of acting and one of the most difficult techniques. It is also commonly called “instant acting.
Many of the best scenes in drama and movies have been created through improvised ad-libs by actors.
Ad-libs are a double-edged sword.
Natural ad-libs create new famous scenes or act as a lubricant for filming, but clumsy ad-libs can disrupt the flow of the filming or embarrass the other actors.
So don’t try it if you’ve worked together before or if you’re not sure the other person can handle the situation.
“But as a newcor, I’m allowed to improvise…”
Does that an he’s that confident in his acting? Or do you believe in my abilities?
Looking at Han Jehoon’s expression, I don’t think he said that to put pressure on .
Rather, he seed like a person who wanted to do a good job, so he wanted to do everything he could.
So I said with a slight smile.
“Yes, sir. If there’s anything that cos to mind while I’m acting, I’ll do it.”
“All right. Oh, and the action is just relentless. Don’t let it go just because you’re a senior. I’m really going to do it.”
“Yes.”
“Hyuna told
to do this, so don’t let up!”
Han Jehoon said with a smile and went back to the set.
After a while, the crew who had finished setting up for the shoot called out.
“I’m going to start filming!”
I handed the script to the crew nearby and walked toward the cara.
There were so many caras on the set, and one of them was just .
It felt strange because I felt like I was becoming a real actor.
“Scene 14 tis!”
Just like that!
The sound of slate and actors from the Japanese Imperial Army ran into the marketplace.
“Turn around!!!”
“Stay still!”
“Nakamura is here!”
“Didn’t you hear
tell you to stay still?”
A marketplace that quickly beca chaotic. The Japanese actors were beating the Koreans rcilessly according to the script.
“What, what!”
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”
“Argh!”
The performance of the best supporting actors conveys fear and embarrassnt.
There was a lot of excitent and it was my turn.
***
Ryosuke Sato.
As a Japanese actor, he longed for Korean dramas and ca to Korea with blood in his veins.
Although he has been recognized for his acting skills by playing supporting roles in several works in Japan, he has yet to establish himself in Korea.
“This is a chance to establish myself in Korea!”
Sato’s role is “Nakamura’s Right Man”. It was a licorice role that would add to the reality of the drama in perfect Japanese.
“Nakamura can’t speak Japanese, so there are only a few lines.”
Nevertheless, Sato was looking forward to filming the drama.
He thought it would be his first real drama to be fild in Korea, and most importantly, he would be able to show off his acting skills to the fullest.
“It was really great in the previous reading…” And in real filming?
Sato stared at Jinseok’s back.
The career of the actor he knew, Kang Jinseok, was not much to see. To be honest, he was worse than himself.
So at first, he was a little disappointed with Jinseok, who shared the most lines with him.
However, Jinseok’s performance during the reading was the first ti that he had ever seen such a performance in his acting career.
Since then, Sato has seen Jinseok differently.
“If you just follow the flow of this actor’s acting, you’ll get a good performance.
When I was looking forward to it, Jinseok, who was standing in front of , said quietly.
“—?”
“—?”
“Is this…?”
– Sato.
It’s his na and the na of his character in the play.
He only said his na, but Sato was surprised by Jinseok’s words.
“Can you speak Japanese?”
This is because even the sa “Sato” has a slight difference in pronunciation and accent between what Japanese say and what Koreans say.
It must be a misunderstanding. I’m sure the director said Nakamura doesn’t speak Japanese.
But it wasn’t an illusion.
「中を片付けろ。整理されたら報告するように。
(“Clean up the inside. I’ll report back once it’s sorted.)
“は、はいっ！(??, ??!) 」
(“Ha, yes! (??, ??!)
Sato, pressed by his acting skills and perfect Japanese, replied with sincerity without realizing it.
As a result, the answer created a perfect scene.
“Cut!”
With the cut signal, Sato opened his eyes wide in surprise. Sato wasn’t the only one who was surprised.
Another Japanese actor was standing next to .
The ugly-looking Korean extra is sitting in the right corner.
Producer Na Jinho, the director of the drama, who was sitting across from , also had his mouth wide open.
