Oh? Seo-jun was here?
Hi, Eden. Eun-sung. Hello, hyungs.
The trainees who were exhausted from dance practice ca up to the first floor and found Seo-jun sitting in a corner of the lobby.
Their tired faces brightened up when they saw Seo-jun.
Seo-jun laughed at their expressions.
Are you having a hard ti?
Yeah. But I feel better knowing that we have a debut schedule for next year.
Park Eden, a music major in his first year who had gotten a sports drink, said with a smile.
As Park Eden and another music major in his first year, Jung Eun-sung, sat down, the other trainees also surrounded Seo-jun.
The trainees who had been cherishing every second of their break ti relaxed and lay down on the sofa.
Their faces looked comfortable.
This is a familiar scene.
It was a continuation of the old days, when Brown Black used to play with Seo-jun at Cocoa Entertainnt and kill ti during practice.
White also used to make excuses to play with Seo-jun when he visited the company after his debut, when his practice was tough.
Red Crown had been using Seo-jun as a shield to catch their breath since they were trainees.
I wish Seo-jun would co every day!
Seo-jun chuckled as he rembered what the Red Crown sisters had said.
It wasnt like they played for an hour or two, just 10 or 20 minutes.
They knew that the practice they were doing now would beco their blood and flesh, so they only used the Lee Seo-jun card when they really needed to catch their breath.
The staff mbers who knew that also let them go often.
Is your next work a Hollywood movie?
Yes.
Seo-jun nodded at the question of his senior trainee.
An article about the casting of Bear Rounds movie had co out.
It was only the beginning of the script, with only two actors cast, but the public seed more curious about it.
Hows the Marine Corps reaction?
The other trainees perked up their ears at Jung Eun-sungs question.
They were more curious about what was happening across the ocean.
Seo-jun looked at their eyes and said.
From what I heard, theyre busy with finishing Assemble 4 and making new hero movies.
As Seo-jun said, Marine Corps was busy finishing Assemble 4 perfectly and opening the curtain for a new season.
They seed to have no ti to care about anything else but box office.
Seo-juns words made Park Eden nod.
Well, they did so well with season 1, everyone must be looking forward to season 2.
Its going to be hard to satisfy them.
There arent many works that do better than season 1 when they make season 2 or 3. And if they change all the actors, its even worse.
Everyone nodded at the senior trainees words.
But why are you here at the company?
A guest ca.
A guest?
The trainees tilted their heads as Seo-jun looked toward the entrance.
The person he was waiting for appeared.
Seo-jun smiled brightly and got up from his seat.
Welco! Uncle Jong-ho.
Kim Jong-hos appearance stirred up the Cocoa Entertainnt lobby.
It was surprising enough to see Seo-jun, who occasionally visited the company, but it was natural for everyones eyes to be drawn to the actor they only saw on television.
The trainees who had been talking to Seo-jun were staring at Kim Jong-ho with trembling eyes.
They had seen Kim Jong-ho in dramas and movies since they were young, and he looked like he was on the other side of the television screen.
Seo-jun tapped on the sides of the trainees who were staring blankly and introduced them to Kim Jong-ho.
These are my seniors who will debut next year.
At Seo-juns words, the trainees who had taken a deep breath greeted Kim Jong-ho with tense faces.
Hello!
Kim Jong-ho smiled.
The trainer who had co to get the trainees who had been playing with Seo-jun as an excuse for taking a break was stunned when he saw Kim Jong-ho and Seo-jun.
***
After sending off the trainees, Seo-jun and Kim Jong-ho went up to Seo-juns practice room.
This is your practice room?
Yes!
Kim Jong-ho looked around Seo-juns practice room.
One wall was entirely made of mirrors, and in one corner there were caras mounted on tripods.
There were also rails installed on the ceiling, and caras hung from them.
Kim Jong-ho was amazed by the sight of caras everywhere.
When I was young, I practiced with just one cara and a script anywhere.
This can move like this.
Seo-jun controlled the cara on the ceiling with a remote control.
Kim Jong-ho was amazed again by the cara that moved up and down, adjusting its height.
It can shoot front and back, left and right. It can also move along the rail.
Thats amazing, isnt it?
Kim Jong-ho looked at the cara that moved along the rail for a while and then tilted his head.
This cara isnt this the new cara that ca to the broadcasting station?
Yes! PD Choi Min-sung said this cara was good, so I changed it.
Kim Jong-ho nodded at the appearance of Na-ui-won PD, who was famous for his visual beauty.
And another cara caught Kim Jong-hos eye.
And this is for movies?
That one was recomnded by Director Ryan.
As technology advanced, caras also advanced.
Depending on the cara, depending on the lens used, the feeling of the actor on the screen was different.
Of course, the final editing will determine the atmosphere.
That was up to the director, so Seo-jun couldnt do anything about it.
So he decided to do his best to practice until the final editing, which was out of his hands.
So I change it whenever a new cara cos out. I think I can act better if I know how I look on cara.
Kim Jong-ho nodded at Seo-juns words.
He didnt use the caras he didnt use anymore, but donated them to places that needed caras.
Kim Jong-ho was impressed by Seo-juns words and saw a familiar cara in his sight.
Ive seen this cara a lot.
At Kim Jong-hos question, Seo-jun smiled and answered.
I dont think Ill always be shooting with a good cara. So Im also practicing with the most popular cara.
Youre very thorough.
Kim Jong-ho sincerely admired Seo-juns smile.
***
There were many caras for dramas and movies, but Kim Jong-ho chose one of the most popular caras.
They said they can only use the front cara for audition videos.
Really?
Seo-jun installed the front cara with a regretful face at Kim Jong-hos words.
Kim Jong-ho could tell from his familiar movents that Seo-jun had practiced moving caras more than once or twice.
Seo-jun finished installing the cara and asked Kim Jong-ho.
Uncle. Did you print out the script? Or you can print it out here.
Seo-jun pointed to the printer next to the resting place and said.
Kim Jong-ho shook his head and showed him a few sheets of paper in his hand.
He could see short writings in various colors of pens on the inside.
Here. I brought it.
Ah, I see. Then you dont need any water? I have juice too. Are you hungry? I have cookies and bread, do you want so?
Kim Jong-ho laughed as he saw Seo-jun, who was about to turn his steps toward the refrigerator on one side, and then changed his mind to get cookies and bread.
He could feel Seo-juns restlessness very well.
Why are you more nervous than , Seo-jun?
Uh. I dont know why Im shaking like this.
Are you worried that I might fail?
To be honest, yes.
Uncle Jong-hos acting was amazing, but he didnt know how Hollywood would react.
It would be easier if it was Marine, but oh well.
He thought Director Jeffrey would be fine, but he wasnt sure about Bearound.
Seo-jun hesitated and opened his mouth.
A little?
The actor who had been acting for longer than Seo-juns age and had experienced various things smiled at Seo-juns appearance.
Well, Im not sure if Ill pass either But whatever audition it is, an actor just has to do his best for the role hes given.
It wouldnt be easy, but he had to show an acting that would make the director or the production company think unconsciously, We have to cast this actor.
Hoo.
Kim Jong-ho let out a light breath.
A slight tension ran through his body.
It had been a long ti since he felt this way.
He felt like he had gone back to the days when he was a fresh rookie who went around auditioning here and there.
Lets start then.
Yes.
A red light ca on the cara.
Actor Kim Jong-hos head turned toward the cara lens.
***
A few days after Kim Jong-ho submitted his first audition video.
The na of the actor who was newly cast in [Survivors] ca out.
Milan Chellen?
Park Sung-won thought that the na that ca up in the article was sohow familiar.
Where have I heard it before Who is it?
He thought hard and rembered a two-shot.
Seo-jun and a black actor shaking hands on the red carpet.
Ah!
Everyone expected him to be nominated, but he didnt make it in the end.
The black actor who was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor with Seo-jun, Milan Chellen!
