Saetbyeol High School disappearance case (2)

Yuil took a large piece of soft rice and put it in his mouth.

Jin Ha-young, sitting in front of him, opened her mouth with a happy smile.

“Yuil, if you want to eat more, tell me~”

Han Yu-il shook his head.

“···aunt. “I’m already on my third bowl.”

“Okay, eat more! “You’re so skinny these days.”

The steaming, savory soybean paste stew was also filled once again.

‘It’s been a really long time since I had a meal with my aunt.’

In particular, since he had never eaten with Jin Ha-young due to his tight schedule these days, Yu Il also worked hard to eat.

.

.

.

‘···ah.’

Yoo Il dragged his exhausted body and lay down on the bed.

Because he overate, he came back from exercising longer than usual.

Yuil stared blankly at the ceiling. To the right of his field of vision, a small translucent window was floating.

【3rd stage goal achievement rate: 2.2%】

As goal achievement rate became more important, Bwin decided to display the goal achievement rate in a translucent window.

‘A week ago it was 1.9%, I guess.’

The figure rose slightly.

Even if you simply calculate it, it would take 0.3% per day to achieve 100% in a year.

For the past week, Yoo Il had no other schedules other than school, sports, and practice, so there was little chance of his achievement rate increasing.

‘···But does the level go up little by little just by practicing the script in a place other than the filming set?’

【yes. The achievement rate may increase depending on the quality and quantity of acting.】

Bwin said the theme of the third stage was ‘reinterpretation.’

‘If that means a remake of the original work or performance…’

At that time, Han Yu-il’s cell phone rang.

– Manager Min Woojin: See you at work tomorrow!

Tomorrow was the day when Yu Il reviewed the scenarios that had been presented to him so far.

‘···Will I be able to find it?’

I slowly closed my eyes with a mixture of worry and anticipation.

“Mr. Yuil.”

Han Yu-il, who had been sitting in the office first, got up from his seat.

“I was going to ask, did you rest well?”

Jaehyun Jang looked at Yuil up and down and tilted his head slightly.

“You’ve lost more weight.”

I thought I definitely ate well for a few days.

Yuil looked down at his own body. It was a body he saw every day, so he didn’t notice any difference.

【Currently, Han Yu-il weighs 72.8 kg. Compared to a month ago, she lost 2.5 kg.】

‘···.’

“Are you controlling your weight for your new role?”

Yoo Il hesitated. It seemed like it was due to the stress of his head possibly exploding and dying three years later…

I was glad I had a good excuse.

“Here are the plans for the works currently under casting discussion.”

Jang Jae-hyun said he had selected a few things himself and handed Yu Il the scenario.

“Among the scenarios that came in, the most involved romance. Mainly playing the role of a sub-male lead. There are a few large-scale dramas and movies, but most of them are important supporting roles.”

“thank you.”

Yuil seriously reviewed the plans. As CEO Jang said, most of them were in the romance genre.

Jang Jae-hyun added softly as he watched Yu Il flipping through the files.

“If you were Yoo Il, I thought you would want to participate in a good work even if you weren’t the lead role.”

Yuil couldn’t help but laugh when he heard that.

“You are correct.”

Yuil, who was looking at each plan, took out one.

“···!”

Jang Jae-hyun, who checked the plan he had, looked at Yu Il in surprise.

‘I didn’t know you would choose that.’

Although several decades have passed since his death, Kim Soo-bong’s work is still considered the best among Korean directors.

– Every time you make that kind of expression, I feel like I’m being bleached.

A masterpiece in which Ha Seon-ok’s outstanding performance is still talked about.

It was a remake of < Jinhee>.

“That’s surprising.”

Jang Jae-hyun looked at Yu Il with an amused expression.

The main character of < Jinhee> is ‘Jinhee’. It is no exaggeration to say that this is a movie in which the main character drives more than 80% of the story.

The role that Yoo Il can play is that of ‘Gi-won’, the man who woos the main character, Jin-hee.

If we were to divide the whole thing into three acts, it was a role that mainly appeared only in the second act.

‘···But he’s an attractive character.’

‘Giwon’ is a person with great influence compared to his size. As the story progresses, he literally becomes ‘Jinhee’s’ world. He was a character that required a lot of effort both in directing and character development.

‘I knew you had a good head.’

He also knows how to see far ahead.

Jang Jae-hyeon revised his thoughts about Han Yu-il once again.

But he didn’t know.

When Yuil found < Jinhee> among the plans, he tensed his chin to hide his trembling.

‘found.’

< Jinhee> was a movie that Yuil watched over and over again, and was one of his favorite movies.

furthermore,

‘Reinterpretation.’

Yuil had to check whether this remake was a work that fell under the theme of ‘reinterpretation’.

【An excellent choice.】

Listening to Bwin’s calm words, Yuil held the plan tightly.

“I want to participate.”

*

The production company that purchased the copyright to < Jinhee> and planned a remake is Oh Film.

It was a production company created by director Ohgu. Although he retired a long time ago and now only participates in production, he is still recognized by people for his sharp eyes.

The director in charge of directing this film was Won Hee-soo.

She is one of the directors who created the romantic film boom from the early 2000s to the 2010s, and until recently served as an adjunct professor at Myunghee University’s Department of Film.

Then, thanks to Oh Film’s persistent suggestion, I took on the role of directing < Jinhee>.

– I heard that there are several actors who are interested in playing the role of ‘Giwon’.

Jaehyun Jang raised the corners of his mouth as he said that.

He added with a smile that clearly revealed his confidence.

– We will schedule a meeting soon. Directly with director Won Hee-soo.

That meeting was scheduled just a few days later.

···Of course, Yu Il couldn’t pay attention to that fact for long.

“Actor, please close your eyes for a moment~”

Yoo Il was currently on the set of < Saetbyeol High School Disappearance Case>.

The filming location itself was similar to when filming < Sing in High School>, but it had a much more eerie feel, perhaps because the building was older.

“It closed down the year before last. Since then, it has been used as a filming location.”

“···Ugh. I think that corner over there would be really scary at night. “What if a ghost comes out?”

“Then that’s awesome! Normally, if you see a ghost on a horror movie set, it’s a huge hit.”

Yuil was getting his makeup done while listening to the makeup team’s conversation.

The character Min Ho-jun is not interested in eating or sleeping.

Of course, the highlight of Min Ho-jun’s appearance was his thin body and dull complexion.

“Well, that’s it.”

Yuil opened his eyes.

I couldn’t help but blink for a while at the unfamiliar face reflected in the mirror.

“···and.”

“How are you?”

Yuil spoke after a short period of thought.

“···I feel like I’m a junkie who hasn’t starved for about three days.”

I meant it.

I don’t know how I did it, but my hair looks dull and my skin has a pale complexion. Even the dark corners of the eyes.

He looks like he won’t bow down even if he encounters a ghost.

The head of the makeup team seemed satisfied with Yuil’s words.

“Right? Ah, success!”

“You are truly amazing.”

“Oh, no. Good luck with today’s shoot~!”

It was amazing to wear flashy makeup when shooting a pictorial or advertisement, but it was even more amazing to wear makeup without looking awkward while making the skin tone and creating dark circles.

As Yoo Il entered the filming set where preparations for filming were in full swing, the other actors also finished putting on their makeup and started coming out one by one.

“Wow, Hojun is over there!”

Yoo Jae-ho smiled brightly and pointed at Han Yu-il.

Park Young-hyun inadvertently turned his head at Director Yoo’s words and looked directly at Yu Il’s haggard face.

Startle.

“···It’s a surprise.”

“Does he look quite like Min Ho-Jun?”

“···yes. “It looks like a zombie.”

When Kim Sun-ah, wearing even whiter makeup than usual, appeared on the set, the director shouted loudly.

“Okay, then let’s shoot~”

[S#14. Saetbyeol Arts High School hallway, daytime]

The scripter, checking the storyboard, nodded.

“Camera roll!”

“14 to 1!”

Following the shouts of the cinematographer and the slate of the youngest member of the directing department, director Yoo Jae-ho’s booming voice rang out on the set.

“action!”

.

.

.

Time when students are in class.

Min Ho-jun sneaks out of class.

Hojun starts walking down the hallway.

Suddenly, a wind blows beyond the window.

The wind is strangely warm, so Hojun turns his head without realizing it.

At that time, there is a figure quickly passing before his eyes.

Surprised, Hojun looks away…

In front of Hojun, he sees a student walking around the hallway wearing an uncut school uniform skirt.

Long hair blowing to and fro in the wind.

And a skirt that flutters as if dancing.

Elegantly gathered fingertips cut through the air,

The toes touch the floor irregularly.

A girl running around the hallway with her long legs outstretched.

The girl is dancing.

Hojun, who was looking at the girl blankly, thought without realizing it.

‘···beautiful.’

It would have just been funny if other kids had been dancing in the hallway.

But not this child.

Warm wind.

The girl’s dance seemed to express the wind that was currently passing through Hojun’s hair.

Min Ho-jun recalled a ballet performance he went to see with his parents a long time ago. But the shock he feels now is greater than what he felt during that performance.

Hojun suddenly opened his mouth.

“Can I draw?”

The girl turns around at Hojun’s words. The clear brown eyes that were wide with embarrassment gradually widen.

“···Ah, it’s you.”

The lovely yet strange smile you saw when you first met appears on your face.

“Anyway.”

The girl and entertainer come closer.

With light steps that make no sound.

Hojun looks at her without even blinking.

Before you know it, Yein’s face is in front of you.

Her pink lips open.

“Please keep my secret instead.”

“···What secret?”

“I decided not to tell anyone who the model was.”

Hojun nods as if he is fascinated.

Can you draw this scene?

That fact alone made my heart start pounding.

“I will protect it. secret.”

.

.

.

“Chorus!”

Director Yoo Jae-ho shouted in an excited voice.

It was when Director Yoo was about to shout ‘Okay’ with a happy face.

“···Director.”

It was Kim Sun-ah who spoke first.

“···sorry. “Can we go back just once?”

“Huh?”

Director Yoo Jae-ho looked at Kim Sun-ah in confusion.

“Why are you doing that?”

“I thought the dancing scene was too awkward.”

“···?”

‘···It was okay?’

However, there was no reason not to film again just because I didn’t like the actor.

“is it so. great. “Let’s go again.”

Another cut like that.

However, there was no significant difference from before.

Kim Sun-ah unconsciously started biting her lower lip.

‘···This is not it.’

I obviously did what I practiced, but I couldn’t figure out why.

It was then that Yuil opened his mouth.

“···Hey, senior.”

Sunah suddenly raised her head.

It seemed like he didn’t expect Yoo Il to talk to him.

“Did you ever practice barefoot?”

Kim Sun-ah’s gaze briefly rested on Yuil’s face.

“···yes.”

no wonder.

Yuil nodded and whispered softly.

“Then… how about dancing barefoot here again?”

At those words, Kim Sun-ah’s eyes widened.
