I’ve Become a Genius Actor
Chapter 118 Table of contents

We did a really good job with the casting.

The cinematographer of < Poetry of Anxiety> slowly panned the camera.

The scene captured on camera was literally like a reflection of the idea of ​​the studio.

Books filled the entire wall. There were antiques lined up where you couldn’t tell how much time had passed, and large plants such as monstera and rubber trees were placed neatly at a certain distance. In the fireplace installed in the studio, embers were burning and making a crackling sound.

And in the center of the living room, there was a large wooden desk with a large monitor and keyboard.

The owner of this comfortable studio and the owner of a huge mansion was sitting at that very desk.

His long fingers moved as if dancing.

– Tok, tok, tododok.

The solo dance on the keyboard began to get faster and faster. The hands moved at incredible speed as if they had a new identity.

Then at some point.

Like a guitar with a broken string, the movement of my fingers suddenly stopped.

“···under.”

The young writer tilted his head back with a sigh.

Then, the long, soft bangs that had been covering her forehead fell to the side, revealing her forehead.

‘···Good.’

Min Gyu-young looked at the scene with satisfied eyes.

Han Yu-il grew his hair long to play the role of writer Cheon Yu-min. Her permed hair slightly covered her ears and the nape of her neck. The hairstyle she chose was one that gave her a decadent feel along with a sense of freedom.

The moment the artist tilted his head back, closed his eyes with a tired face, and then opened them again.

His gaze was captured directly on the camera. There was no warmth in the author’s sharp and sensitive eyes.

Min Gyu-hyeon, who was monitoring next to Min Gyu-young, narrowed his eyebrows without realizing it. He pressed his lips.

‘···!’

It was an act I had already seen during a one-on-one meeting, but seeing it on camera felt even more strange.

‘···What kind of look in your eyes?’

It is a filming location with no music or sound effects. But strangely, it seemed like a cool background sound was coming from somewhere.

And in the next cut, Yumin is looking at the ceiling.

With cold eyes, just like in the previous scene.

After staring at the ceiling for a while, he took out a few white pills from a small container on his desk and poured them into his mouth.

That was the first scene in the scenario.

However, Min Gyu-young did not immediately call cut. She saw something in her eyes. Her eyes narrowed as she stared at her monitor.

‘no way.’

Yumin’s eyes were trembling slightly. The camera captured that small tremor.

It was difficult to believe that it was acting.

“···Cut!”

Min Gyu-young’s sonorous voice rang out.

After closely monitoring for several minutes, she approached Yuil.

“···Mr. Yoo Il, I want to ask you something.”

“Yes, director.”

“Is that what you intended at the end?”

Yuil nodded.

“···For some reason, I think Cheon Yu-min would be like that.”

“···!”

This was something I thought about while reading the scenario.

Han Yu-il thought about Cheon Yu-min for a long time.

Yumin Cheon. He published his first novel when he was ten years old.

Everyone who read Yu Min’s novel could not have imagined that he was ten years old.

This was a fact that even the publisher did not know. Yumin, a minor, signed the contract using her mother’s name.

The truth came to light belatedly after Yu Min received an award from a famous literary magazine.

People took notice of this young genius. But there was another reason why people were really excited.

– Author Cheon Yu-min. There is a story that readers of the author’s writing have in common. Do you know anything?

– well.

– The work is said to be dark and deep. The main characters in your novel try new things over and over again, but they all end up failing. In most cases, you end up killing someone else or dying. If there is a reason why you wrote such a dark story, please tell me.

It was a conversation with a senior writer who represented Korea at the time.

To the question he asked, Yumin answers as follows.

– In essence, life is pain itself.

It was too dark a story for a young child to say out loud.

When Yu Il first read the script, he thought about it for a long time. I wasn’t sure if Cheon Yu-min was really a ‘genius’.

Min Kyuhyun, who heard Yuil’s only concern on the day of the reading, said with an indifferent expression.

– Mr. Yuil, do you really think Yumin is a genius?

-···.

It might have been a ridiculously easy question.

In other people’s eyes, Yumin is ‘of course’ a genius.

So, what about Yumin himself? Did he consider himself a genius?

‘···No.’

Probably not. At least Cheon Yu-min himself.

.

.

.

“···So that’s why you did it?”

Min Gyu-young narrowed his eyes and asked.

“Is that where the idea of ​​taking medicine every time your facial muscles tremble came from?”

When Yuil nodded, a laugh came out of Gyuyoung’s mouth.

Even more than coming up with such an idea, it was more amazing that I was able to put it into practice.

Min Gyu-young met Min Gyu-hyun’s gaze.

What the two had been thinking about for the longest time was nothing else but the character of ‘Cheon Yu-min’.

Even after creating the character like that, I ran into difficulties. The reason it was in danger of falling apart several times during the production stage was none other than an issue with the actors. Every time I submitted a plan, I was told that there would be no young male actor capable of delicately portraying the inner life of such a complex character.

“···We did a really good job casting.”

*

The filming of < Poetry of Anxiety> began in a friendly atmosphere. The film was produced by Min Film, headed by Min Kyu-hyeon and Min Kyu-young, and Bang Bang, a studio that has produced many outstanding works. The props company I worked with this time was also a famous company in the industry.

Is that why? The power of capital was strongly felt on the filming set.

The youngest member of the directing department looked around and thought.

‘···It was real. The production cost is huge.’

The production company carried out major construction to tear down and repair the existing building for the mansion where the main character, Yumin, lives.

Thanks to this, Yumin’s house became a strange-looking mansion that was difficult to see.

To be honest, he didn’t like Han Yu-il very much.

‘Well, I think I’m good at acting.’

Since everyone around me liked it, I felt some resistance.

This was closer to wanting to avoid listening to the songs that everyone liked. The fact that they were similar in age was enough to arouse a strange sense of jealousy and discomfort.

Of course, I was embarrassed to tell others.

Because the filming was done indoors and the film was set in winter, even the fireplace was operating. Other staff members had taken off their outerwear and were fanning themselves.

The youngest staff member, who had been running around responding to calls from the assistant director and other teams, suddenly had sweat running down his spine.

‘···I should wear short sleeves.’

It was slowly getting cooler, so I decided to take out my long sleeves and wear them.

It was when he was swallowing his regrets and working hard to set up the filming set.

A soft voice rang from next to me.

“Use this.”

I was startled by those words and raised my head.

Because of his size and height, he was not one to kneel down, but even he had to raise his gaze slightly.

The person who spoke was none other than Han Yu-il. It was my first time seeing it this close.

“I thought you were hot.”

Only then did I see the hand fan in Yuil’s hand.

The staff member, who was so caught up in Yuil’s face that he heard what he said too late, threw up his hand.

“I’m fine. There’s one more here. Please use it comfortably.”

Han Yu-il held the hand fan in his other hand and smiled.

The youngest staff member quickly accepted the fan.

“…Thank you…”

“Jiyeol! 17 inches here!”

The staff member, who was holding the fan with a dazed look on his face, quickly ran when he heard someone calling him.

And a few minutes later.

As soon as filming began, the eyes of the youngest staff member who was watching the filming set widened.

This was because Han Yu-il changed in an instant when he stood in front of the camera.

‘Uh…’

It was clearly Han Yuil, Han Yuil… but it didn’t seem to be Han Yuil.

It was an expression on his face that made it hard to believe that he was an actor who had just smiled at him and handed him a fan.

‘···and.’

It was just one scene of taking medicine.

But even at a glance, I could tell. It was definitely not an easy act to do.

The youngest staff member, who was watching as if fascinated, realized an important fact only after hearing the OK sign.

‘···There wasn’t a single line of dialogue.’

I couldn’t help but laugh.

Isn’t that… too perfect?

Before he knew it, his eyes began to sparkle as he looked at Yuil.

Meanwhile, at the same time.

HM was watching a new video posted on the JJ Entertainment channel.

– [Yullog] Fishing… Is this right? A peaceful day for professional anglers and newbies!

It was a fishing vlog by Han Yu-il and Hwang Yi-won.

HM already knew that Han Yu-il went fishing with Hwang I-won due to the photo he posted on Shasta.

However, as always, Yu-il Han left only pictures of beautiful scenery, so I was very curious about what happened at the fishing spot.

“···!”

From the beginning, the video started with Yu Il speaking while holding the camera close.

– hello everyone. I came to go fishing today…!

Yuil’s voice, which opened fire with force, gradually diminished as time went by.

– Just throw it like this without getting caught with other fishing rods.

– Like this?

-···.

A close-up of Hwang Yi-won quietly organizing his fishing rod was accompanied by a sound effect.

┗ Ah hahahaha

┗ ㅠㅠAre you not even talking anymore?

The point of laughter was that the faces of the resigned Hwang Yi-won and the bright Han Yu-il were edited together.

┗ I don’t know anything about fishing, but I know that Han Yu-il is not good at it.

┗┗ So so sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

┗ 5:33 Ah hahahaha who lifts a fishing rod like that?

┗┗ It’s the first time I’ve seen Hwang Yi-won’s blank face like that.

┗┗ Aren’t you going to ask Yuil to go fishing from now on?

┗┗ ?? : I guess Mr. Yuil doesn’t have any talent for fishing…

┗ Yuil.. is so bright and cute.. she’s really bad at it.. but she’s cute..

– Next, let’s go to the sea. ···That might be better.

The vlog ended with Yu Il nodding brightly to Hwang Yi-won’s words.

‘···What, is it over already?’

I thought it would be a gentle healing vlog or an old man-like video, but it was fun and had more laughs than I expected.

The good chemistry between Han Yu-il and Hwang Yi-won was also one of the popular factors.

HM immediately posted a new post on Blue Chat.

【[@daWjf6fhy Is Ha Yul too big and cute?]

┗ [@daWjf6fhy Things Han Yu-il can’t do: 1. Taking selfies 2. Fishing < < new ] [@w32kf_12 If there is anyone who hasn’t watched the fishing vlog yet, run now (link)] [@HYul_0401 I never thought I would watch a video of two men fishing in my lifetime] ┗[@HYul_0401 I’m happy haha]】 Yuil checked the reaction that appeared in the translucent window. To be honest, he felt embarrassed after watching the video, but was fortunate that the response was better than he expected. “Hello, actor~” Yuil raised his head as he heard a greeting from a staff member passing by. Today was the first day of filming with Hwang Yi-won. However, something happened that no one on the set, including Yu Il, expected.
