Chapter 361
Seo-jun, who was cold-hearted in front of acting and works, explained to Min Hee-kyung, the director of [Our Neighborhood], the good and bad points of [Our Neighborhood].
“It was six years ago when Over the Rainbow was released. That year, there were many bland movies, so the intense ending left a strong impression.”
He softly explained with examples of the trends and pacing of that ti.
Min Hee-kyung nodded as if she was listening to an expert’s lecture.
“I would have acted like this. Then the audience would empathize with the character more easily.”
As if his introduction as an actor was not a lie, he gave an evaluation that balanced the perspectives of an actor and an audience.
Min Hee-kyung looked back at her work six years ago as she listened to his comnts.
‘Wasn’t he… an elentary school student back then?’
He knew what she regretted and realized only after hearing people’s reviews of her first work when he was just an elentary school student.
And that was for a failed movie that didn’t even break even or get known.
‘Kids these days are amazing.’
She couldn’t believe that he was still unknown.
‘They say it’s a boom for child actors.’
She had no idea that this level of knowledge and insight was required these days. She was busy with part-ti jobs and writing scripts.
How much more would the famous child actors like Lee Seo-jun and Kim Joo-kyung be?
‘Wouldn’t they be incredible?’
Her standards for child actors rose rapidly.
If the active child actors or the so-called golden generation of Mirinae Elentary School’s acting departnt knew, they would have slapped their foreheads.
Lee Seo-jun is special!
They would have groaned.
Min Hee-kyung, who admired the background knowledge of ‘top actor Lee Seo-jun’, looked at Seo-jun, who was imrsed in the script after finishing his explanation.
He read it once and then went back to the beginning, reading it as if he was analyzing every word.
Min Hee-kyung felt tears welling up in her eyes.
No one had ever read her work so earnestly in front of her.
“What do you think from an actor’s point of view?”
She suddenly beca curious.
It was a script that would be thrown away when she went ho, but what would he think of her scenario as an actor, and a peer of the protagonist?
She decided to quit being a director, so she thought she could accept any review from a third person’s perspective.
‘It’s not the sa.’
She felt nervous.
She wasn’t a production company employee who had to stake the movie production on one review.
Min Hee-kyung, who didn’t know at all that the movie production, no, the movie success depended on her words, asked Seo-jun, who scratched his cheek and answered.
“It’s similar to [Our Neighborhood].”
“…Ah…Really?”
Min Hee-kyung’s expression clouded.
“I fixed it, but I guess there are still so left.”
“The director’s delicate and detailed description and the scenery that cos to mind just by reading the script seem better than [Our Neighborhood]. The pacing also seems faster. But…”
“But…?”
“The story is lacking. The developnt is not twisty but flat… The material is common, so there have been many works with it. So I think the audience will guess the developnt roughly from the beginning.”
Min Hee-kyung sighed lightly at Seo-jun’s words.
“The story is lacking…”
“It’s boring when the movie progresses with the sa deduction as yours. But it becos special when there is sothing that the audience never thought of.”
Special.
A movie flashed through Min Hee-kyung’s mind.
“…Like Survivors?”
At Min Hee-kyung’s words, Seo-jun, who starred in [Survivors], rolled his eyes.
“Um…Yes. Survivors started with a clichéd opening, but no one expected Raymond Wish, who was the main attacker, to be eliminated first. And that Lee Hyun-woo, who survived until the end, would help rescue the survivors.”
Min Hee-kyung recalled [Survivors].
She watched all the movies that beca hot topics without missing any, even though she was busy with part-ti jobs and writing.
She also watched [Survivors], which turned this sumr upside down.
“That Ian Weaver was a dostic violence victim was also a special point.”
“I liked that too. There are hardly any supporting characters with such a past in disaster movies. There are sotis scenes where Mia’s parents run to Mia, who was saved by the protagonist in the last scene, if there is Mia.”
A disaster movie ca out of Seo-jun’s mouth in an instant.
Min Hee-kyung nodded at that cliché.
“That’s why the cookie video beca a hot topic.”
Seo-jun said with a smile.
“The Director’s Cut is a bunch of exceptions, so it’s better not to analyze it. All of them… Oh, did you watch the Director’s Cut?”
“I did.”
She watched it as soon as it appeared on Plus .
Seo-jun, who asked in case of spoilers, continued with a smile.
“Ian Weaver died first and Lee Hyun-woo went crazy… And all the characters died, but I didn’t even know it would be released in theaters and do well.”
“That’s true.”
Who would have expected Ian Weaver to die first?
Min Hee-kyung still couldn’t forget that shock.
“So I think it would be good to add so new materials and stories. It doesn’t have to be just one genre. There is also romance thriller.”
“…New story…”
Sothing.
It seed to float in her head.
Min Hee-kyung, who was lost in thought, looked at Seo-jun, who took out his vibrating phone from his pocket.
Han Jinho: Where are you? I’m done with filming.
Han Jinho: Are you using invisibility?
Han Jinho: When did you disappear;;;
Seo-jun flinched at the word invisibility. It was similar in the sense that his presence disappeared.
