Lets try the shortest piece today. I recorded Jasons performance, and you have to start right away when I give you the signal of one, two. One, two. Snap! Got it?
Yes!
Professor Benjamin taught Seo-jun and Catherine the na of the piece and handed them the sheet music.
While the two kids recalled the performance they had learned by looking at the sheet music, Director Sara Roth called Paul and handed him the cara.
Lets practice filming here.
Yes!
Paul was excited to hold the cara while his friends played. Seo-jun and Catherine appeared on the cara screen.
This side would be better, right?
This side?
Yes. If you know what the caraman feels, it will help you when you act.
Pauls eyes sparkled as he heard this explanation from the director. He thought he had to learn hard and use it when he acted.
Then lets start with Jun. Lets match the pre-recorded performance.
Yes.
Seo-jun took out the violin from the case. He put his chin on the chin rest and held the bow in his right hand without a monts hesitation. His skillful appearance made Benjamin Morton and Jason Moores eyes sparkle.
When Seo-jun finished preparing, the practice room was silent.
One. Two.
Snap, Benjamin Morton turned on the music with the signal.
Seo-jun lowered the bow. The bow drew the string and made a beautiful sound.
He pressed the violin string hard with his left fingers and moved the bow with his right hand. The sound flowing through the string echoed in the practice room.
Jason Moores performance and Seo-juns appearance matched well. Both of them followed the instructions of the sheet music thoroughly. Thanks to that, the beat and the order of pressing the strings were correct. The timing was good and the sound was clean.
Yes, as if the sound was coming from the violin
?
The people who were nodding their heads and watching Seo-juns performance looked at Seo-jun with surprised eyes.
Theres no way such a clean sound can co out?
As long as he pretended to draw the violin string with the bow, the sound had to co out due to the friction between the bow and the string. In a short ti, it was hard to learn the clean sound of the piece as well as the decent posture.
Well, maybe its possible if he got used to it for a short piece
Professor Benjamin and Jasons eyes widened at Seo-juns violin sound without a single pitch deviation.
Professor Benjamin turned off the speaker. But the beautiful performance continued.
Vivaldis Four Seasons Spring, 1st movent.
The performance of a level similar to an expert was flowing out of Seo-juns violin, not the speaker. There was no one in the practice room who was not surprised.
The filming part of the Four Seasons Spring, 1st movent was short, and Seo-jun stopped the bow at the end of the sheet music.
Everyone applauded the result of the practice beyond imagination. Director Sara Roth, who was clapping hard, rembered sothing and opened her mouth in surprise.
Wait a minute.
Everyones eyes turned to Director Sara Roth.
Professor. Can I ask you how Juns posture is?
Its perfect. Its like a textbook example.
Professor Benjamin said with a satisfied smile. It was a posture that he wanted to show to his students right away.
Unlike Benjamin Morton, who was satisfied, Director Sara Roth was restless.
Then its not good! Jun. You know the characters setting, right?
Yes. I know.
Seo-jun answered and grabbed the violin again. It was a different posture from before. Director Sara Roth, Catherine, and Paul tilted their heads. The most surprised ones were Benjamin Morton and Jason Moore.
Like this?
It was a posture that the two knew very well. The awkward posture of soone who had just picked up the violin. Seo-juns perfect posture changed to a novices posture to the point of perfection.
Seo-jun moved the bow. Two strings were pressed by the bow, and a squeaky sound ca out. But the performance continued.
Vivaldis Four Seasons Spring, 1st movent.
A terrible sound that was a ss ca out of Seo-juns violin. Everyone in the practice room looked at Seo-jun with a blank expression.
Is this performance and the previous performance by the sa person?
No one would believe it.
Can you play it again like the first ti?
At Sara Roths words, Seo-jun straightened his posture. The performance that sounded like a scream from hell changed to a heavenly performance again. Benjamin Morton lost his words. Jason Moore swallowed his saliva.
Catherine and Paul looked at Seo-jun with curious eyes. It was a more amazing sight for Catherine, who had practiced only good postures from the beginning to the end.
Jun. How about the middle?
Seo-jun nodded at the words of Director Sara Roth, who was holding the cara and filming Seo-jun.
I can do it.
The posture changed. Oh. Professor Benjamin finally exclaid. It was a posture similar to the students he was teaching now.
The sound ca out. It was amazing. The performance was cool, but there were occasional mistakes. From the mistakes that only Benjamin Morton and Jason Moore could know, to the mistakes that Director Sara Roth and the kids could know.
Uh. Jun. Back to the first posture.
He heard the perfect spring again. If Benjamin Morton didnt hear it wrong, this was a perfect performance. So. That ans
Did you act out the mistakes too?
From novice to gradually improving skills. Many mistakes and fewer mistakes. The crooked posture and the posture that seed to be in the textbook. The sound that hit the floor and the music that he wanted to hear again.
Everyone was shocked by the change that was scary.
This is Seo-jun Lee
Catherine, Paul, and Director Sara Roth lost their words. The acting of Seo-jun Lee, who they saw in person, was more shocking than the ones they saw in the works.
Benjamin Morton, who was thinking for a mont, opened his mouth. He couldnt keep listening to Seo-juns performance. The child that Benjamin Morton had to teach was two.
Next is Catherine.
Catherine was startled by Professor Benjamins call. No, how can you ask to act after seeing that acting? Catherines pupils shook.
Its okay. Just do it as you practiced comfortably.
Ha, but
Catherine couldnt hold the violin in the end. Neither Benjamin Morton nor Director Sara Roth blad Catherine. They didnt know that Seo-jun could act so well, so they understood that Catherine felt pressured.
You just have to practice until the filming. Cheer up, Catherine.
Yes!
Catherine nodded at Director Sara Roths words.
In the car on the way ho, Professor Benjamin asked Jason.
Isnt it amazing?
I played according to the sheet music in less than a year.
Professor Benjamin smiled and looked outside at the appearance of his disciple, who was still unhappy that he called him when he was busy preparing for his first solo concert.
When he drove alone, he drove fast, but he drove at the speed limit when he got on. He laughed at the sight.
Not the performance, but the acting.
Jason didnt open his mouth. Professor Benjamin recalled what had happened in the practice room.
Seo-juns acting changed under the direction of Sara Roth. Professor Benjamin rubbed his arm that had goosebumps.
That must be genius. What was his na, Seo-jun Lee? I have to look up his works when I get ho. Do you want to watch them too? It would be nice to have dinner as well.
Yes.
Jason Moore had to practice for his solo recital, but he couldnt refuse his teachers invitation. He ended up watching a hero movie that didnt suit his taste and having a lavish dinner.
The next day.
Sara Roth, the director, and Professor Benjamin, who arrived early at the practice room, had a conversation.
If he can play everything, it would be fine to use his performance as it is.
Do you think so?
Sara Roth was tempted by Professor Benjamins words, but she was also worried.
But as you said, its too faithful to the score. I wish it was a performance that showed Grays genius, even if it didnt match the score.
Hell have to learn that from now on.
Professor Benjamin thought of the movie he had watched yesterday. He watched Seo-juns works on Plus , which Jason had connected to the television.
He skipped the childrens play that only had his voice and Shadowman 1, which he said he had a short appearance in, and watched Shadowman 2.
It was an amazing change that made Benjamin Morton and Jason Moore, who didnt know the art of acting, admire.
If Jun can act like that, hell do it in no ti.
Well, Jun will do well. Lets ask him then.
Sara Roth asked Seo-jun, who had just arrived. Seo-juns eyes widened with surprise at the unexpected good news. He smiled brightly and nodded his head repeatedly. It would be a lie to say he didnt expect it.
Great! I want to play!
Then you have to practice harder for two weeks.
Yes!
The second practice was to listen to Catherines performance and Seo-juns other songs.
Catherine, who had reviewed her practice at the hotel, showed a posture that satisfied Professor Benjamin and Director Sara. Of course, there were so places that didnt match the performance that ca out of the speakers.
I can see so parts that need to be fixed, but I can finish them in two weeks.
Thats good.
Next was Seo-juns turn. Everyone looked at him with anticipation.
As expected, Seo-jun showed a splendid performance that was faithful to the score. Professor Benjamin and Jason, who had followed him today, nodded their heads and listened to Seo-juns performance.
Shall we listen to the last song?
Over the Rainbow, right?
At Seo-juns words, Jason Moore and Sara Roths eyes sparkled. Catherine and Paul looked at Seo-jun with hopeful faces.
Over the Rainbow.
The song that Professor Benjamin Morton composed, which would decorate the end of Seo-juns next movie, Over the Rainbow.
Sure. Can you do it?
Yes!
Seo-jun lifted his violin to his shoulder and rested his chin.
Seo-jun wondered. Should he play as faithfully to the score as he had done so far, or should he play as he would show during the filming?
Seo-jun smiled at the people who were full of expectations and activated his ability.
[(Line)Goblin Violinists lody is activated.]
[(Line)Goblin Violinists lody-Interdiate]
You are the one and only goblin violinist.
You learned how to play the violin by yourself.
Raw emotions flow through the lody.
You convey so of the emotions you feel to the listeners.
The one and only goblin violinist in that world.
He was obsessed with the violin that humans had left behind and was driven out of the pack. But he didnt let go of the violin.
The goblin brought out a wonderful performance with his genius talent and effort that he didnt even know he had.
He expressed his emotions through music and moved and subdued his enemies.
Of course, its a monsters performance, so its raw.
It was rough and violent. But there was no other way of playing that suited Gray as much as this. Seo-juns bow slid along the string. The violent tone filled the practice room.
Seo-jun turned on his violin. He played a noisy song with a sloppy posture. No one in the practice room was fooled by that.
Professor Benjamins words were heard and Seo-jun corrected his posture. Soon, beautiful music flowed out.
I cant beat that.
Did you think you could?
Paul smiled and said to Catherine, who was taking a break from practice and catching her breath.
Paul Oden participated in the lesson even though he had no practice. Sara Roth, the director, was busy with the filming preparations and ca by alternately with Emily, the assistant director. Sotis they gave advice that helped. It was also fun to watch Seo-juns acting.
I an, I felt stupid for not being able to act because of his acting.
Thats true. If you cant act because youre overwheld by his acting, itll be hard to be an actor in the future. There must be actors who can act as well as Jun
Hmm. Do you think so?
Maybe theres one sowhere?
Paul shrugged at Catherines words.
Weaker, a little weaker!
Jason Moores voice was heard as Seo-juns performance was heard. Jason Moore, who was busy preparing for his first solo recital, often stopped by the practice room after hearing Seo-juns Over the Rainbow and gave him advice on his performance.
Use your fingers more. Press harder.
Benjamin Morton smiled as he tried to ease Jasons burden of the recital by helping him with the movie shooting.
He hoped his disciple would take a break from playing other songs, but he was fascinated by Seo-juns performance.
It was different from the direction he intended, but he was satisfied with the sight of his disciple whose nerves had cald down.
Seo-juns performance changed according to the two peoples teachings. Before he knew it, he forgot about the filming preparations and was imrsed in teaching a great violinist. Thanks to the two teachers who were into it, Seo-juns skills improved day by day.
There is definitely a difference between the teacher and the professors teaching.
If Jeong Isuls teaching was faithful to the score and the textbook-like posture as Seo-jun asked, Professor Benjamin encouraged a more free posture. It was also amazing that he felt refined while using [(Line)Goblin Violinists lody].
The sharp tone that was sharp while conveying the emotions is disappearing.
Seo-jun was excited and continued to play.
Catherine and Paul looked at the three people.
Is this a violin solo recital practice, not a movie shooting preparation?
Maybe Jun will play that song the best in the world.
Thats right. Ah, today is the end of the lesson and the shooting starts the day after tomorrow.
Uh. Im nervous. I wonder what Jun will be like on the set.
They roughly guessed. Catherine and Paul looked at Seo-jun. People who are focused are cool, but Seo-jun was shining.
I dont know, but he wont be worse than he is now.
Over the Rainbow filled the practice room.
