Possessed 10 Million Actors-Chapter 22
Chapter 22
Producer Kim Mansoo was watching the filming scene while swallowing his dry saliva.
‘···Hmm.’
Multiple cameras are used in drama filming. This is because you cannot create rich images with just one camera.
Also, when multiple actors appear in a scene, each camera must film a different actor.
Therefore, no matter how talented a producer is, he cannot check every actor’s performance in real-time.
‘Therefore···. First, let’s look at Park Woohyun’s acting. After cutting, I can check Kang Jinseok’s acting.’
As soon as Producer Kim Mansoo’s mind was organized, filming began.
Grumble. Bang!
“Okay, doctor. Minho, why are you doing that? “Am I okay?”
The door to the hospital room opened and Park Woohyun came in and said.
‘Okay… first of all, the first is stable.’
Min Kyungsoo’s line follows immediately.
“Minho… sorry. My symptoms suddenly got worse… Obviously, the test results were okay until a few days ago… .”
A serious voice that makes it hard to believe that Min Kyungsoo is always full of fun. Park Woohyun got angry and took the line back.
“No, my symptoms suddenly got worse… “What do you mean!”
“… .”
“That’s what the doctor says! really?!”
“… Sorry.”
“Fuck… Minho! hey! Minho Kim! “Come to your senses!”
Park Woohyun gets angry at the doctor and approaches his younger brother ‘Minho’. He acted like he really had the experience of losing his younger brother.
After getting angry for a while, he started crying when he saw his brother who was motionless.
A hospital room filled with only Park Woohyun crying.
Kim Mansoo did not take his eyes off the camera and waited for Jinseok’s line.
“Are you okay···.”
At that time, a voice filled with indescribable emotions flowed from Jinseok’s mouth.
As soon as he heard that voice, a smile appeared on Producer Kim Mansoo’s face.
‘The voice really kills me.’
“Cut!”
Usually, when the PD shouts ‘cut’, other staff members repeat words. Saying things like ‘I’ll take a break!’ or ‘I’ll check before leaving!’
But now the filming site was completely silent.
‘What?’
Producer Kim Mansoo glanced at the actors. While focusing only on Park Woohyun’s screen, he may have missed something.
Then, what PD Kim Mansoo saw was
‘Min Kyungsoo’, a doctor who killed a patient due to his own ridiculous mistake.
The older brother, ‘Park Woohyun’, blames himself for the fact that his younger brother died because of him.
Finally,
The younger brother, ‘Kang Jinseok’, leaves everything behind and tries to comfort his older brother.
He was showing himself.
‘···Oh my god.’
Except for himself, who was only watching Park Woohyun, everyone on set was fascinated by Jinseok’s acting.
Jinseok’s acting made the filming a reality.

“Thank you for your hard work filming!”
“Ah···. yes AD Kang Heeyeon, thank you for your hard work!”
Unfortunately or fortunately, the filming ended in one go.
Of course, later we will film the ‘telling his mother that he was giving up the kidney for his older brother’ scene, so my filming is not completely over, but…
‘I guess it’s okay…? Because it went well, it must have been over in one take.’
My first performance in real life using possession.
I was very curious how the acting came out.
‘I wish I could see the footage… ‘It might be difficult because I’m busy with other scenes.’
My shoot was over in less than 5 minutes, but there were still plenty of other shots left.
I heard that there are a lot of scenes to be filmed at the hospital today, so they might film until late at night.
While I was regretting not being able to see the footage, AD Kang Heeyeon said to me.
“I… Mr. Jinseok.”
“Yes?”
“The acting was really good earlier. “I’ve never seen the staff so mesmerized on that filming set.”
When filming, I tried to show Minsu.
Minsu, who was trying to comfort his older brother even though he couldn’t even lift a finger, was portrayed as is.
‘Fortunately, I guess it was conveyed well.’
AD Kang Heeyeon was always smiling, but her current expression showed that she looked up to me. The look in her eyes is like a fan looking at a star.
Maybe it was my imagination, but it felt good.
“Senior Park Woohyun’s acting was so good that I was able to easily immerse myself in it. Senior Min Kyungsoo also treated him very well.”
As soon as I finished speaking, I heard a familiar voice behind me.
“Jinseok, you worked hard. It was really great! today.”
When I looked back, I saw senior Park Woohyun. It seemed like he had some free time and came to say hello.
“Senior, thank you for your hard work. First of all, you created a good atmosphere so I was able to act comfortably.
Senior Park Woohyun smiled slightly at my words and tapped him on the shoulder.
“What are you talking about? “I got help.”
“···Yes?”
“When I opened the door and saw you, I was immediately immersed in it. “How can you act like lying still so realistically?”
“···.”
“I kept crying because I felt like my brother who didn’t even exist was dying. Even though the PD cut, you couldn’t move.”
Now that I think about it, I think it was like that. Producer Kim Mansoo clearly shouted ‘cut’, but no one moved.
‘It was as if time had stopped.’
As I was reminiscing about my first acting, senior Park Woohyun told me.
“I have to go again. Anyway, Jinseok, today was really nice. If you keep doing that in the future, you will rise really quickly. Let’s work together on the next project as well.”
‘Let’s do this together in the next project too…’
It was the highest compliment for his junior.
“Thank you!”
Senior Park Woohyun, who received my greeting, immediately returned to the filming set. Looking at the Mulkkeureomi filming set, I can see Producer Kim Mansoo filming with a smile on his face.
I felt even more reassured when I saw PD Kim Mansoo smiling. If the filming didn’t go well producer, and director Kim Mansoo shouldn’t be smiling like that.
‘Then, should I go now?’
There was a lot to do. I had to read the scripts of producer Na Jinho and writer Jo Seokwon’s work, and also practice my college entrance exam skills.
‘Well, I guess I have to go to a part-time job too.’
“Then, AD Kang Heeyeon. “I’ll just go in now.”
“Ah yes! Thank you for your hard work! then···. “Are we not going to be able to see each other for a while?”
AD Kang Heeyeon speaks a little regretfully. I smiled and said to her.
“I will work harder and be cast in many works. Then I will be able to see you again anytime soon…”
-Hey Heeyeon! You’re so busy, what are you doing there?! Come quickly and help!!
At that time, someone from afar called AD Kang Heeyeon.
“I’m sorry, senior! I’m going now!! Well then, Jinseok, I’ll see you later!”
AD Kang Heeyeon quickly said goodbye and ran to the staff member who had called her. Kang Heeyeon disappears far away before I can answer.
As soon as he disappeared, it felt like today’s filming for him was over.
‘I need to go home quickly and get ready to go to my part-time job.’

“···So! “For our school’s second exam, we have to say ‘same-day lines’!”
“Same-day ambassador?”
“Yes! You chose a short script on test day, right? “You analyze it on the spot and act it out.”
“···Isn’t it too difficult?”
“It can’t be helped. What is the type of practical test? How do I do it? “If you tell me to do it, I have to do it.”
I was currently finishing up my part-time job at a cafe with Seo Yeonsoo.
For your information, after <The Talk Show> aired, our cafe became even more famous and is now called a Seongsu-dong specialty.
I didn’t know much about it because I don’t use SNS, but Seo Yeonsoo said that my photos are also posted frequently.
‘I was slightly offended and it was a violation of portrait rights.’
Anyway, that’s not what’s important right now.
“Are you going to test your lines on the day using a movie or drama script?”
“It’s different every time. Sometimes a movie or drama script comes out, and sometimes a comedy script comes out. There are also scripts written by professors themselves. ah! “Sometimes sitcom scripts come out, too.”
There was a lot of variety. The level is virtually impossible to predict.
“But they even write sitcom scripts for college entrance exams?”
“Yes. Even if it’s a sitcom, acting is acting. But you shouldn’t just watch sitcoms lightly. It’s quite difficult to do sitcoms because if you do it wrong, it can seem like you’re overdoing it. Or it’s not fun at all.”
My head nodded at Seo Yeonsoo’s words. Sitcoms are a genre where you can’t act properly unless you fully understand the situation.
“In the end, luck is also important. “If a script I know comes out, it’s a big hit.”
“That’s why a lot of people say that it’s too much about luck. But because professors skip famous dramas and movies, there are almost no scripts that students can understand.”
“But. “Professors all have their own thoughts, too.”
Seo Yeonsoo, who was explaining the lines of the day, said one more thing as if she had forgotten.
“Oh, and you also need to prepare special skills and improvisation. His specialty is literally. “For improvisation, you just have to act out the situation presented by the professor.”
“The situation the professor presents?”
“Yes. For example, if you ask me to act like a son who meets his family for the first time in 10 years, I will act according to the situation. Oh, I heard that my seniors once told me to express ‘falling leaves’?”
It was a different test from the ambassador that day. It was definitely not an easy test.
“Why are there so many exams?”
“Hey. “It’s because it’s such a good school.”
“That’s right, but… after.”
Having said this, I was quite confident. I had worked hard on my acting in the meantime, and I also had memories of Yeonmi preparing for the entrance exam for ten years.
‘While acting as Minsu and Kang Hoshin, expressing emotions became more natural.’
I felt like I could pass at this level.
‘The second practical session is next Monday. There wasn’t much left. I need to practice whenever I have time. ‘What special skills should I prepare for?’
At that time, I was thinking about how to prepare for the entrance exam.
Before we knew it, the store manager approached the two of us and said teasingly.
“Guys! It’s good for the two of you to tease each other, but just do your job and quit messing around. Especially when it’s time to close…”
“You’re making fun of us! “We’re talking about something very important right now!”
Seo Yeonsoo shouted, interrupting the store manager. Her face was quite red.
“That’s just teasing. Yeonsoo, you quickly go and wipe the table, and Jinseok, you quickly sweep from here to there.”
The store manager spoke calmly and patted my back and Seo Yeonsoo’s back.
“When you’re done with that, get off work. “I’m going first~”
“Go quickly!”
Seo Yeonsoo fired at the store manager, who was walking away with his back turned. Her face was still red.
After cleaning up after about 30 minutes, I had roughly finished what the manager had ordered.
“I···. brother.”
Seo Yeonsoo, who finished the work first and changed clothes, came out of the locker room and said.
“Uh?”
“That···. There’s not much time left until the school practical exam. so···.”
“?”
Seo Yeonsoo is strangely hesitant, unlike usual. Then she suddenly continued speaking rapidly, as if rambling.
“Well, can I watch your acting? Of course! I know you’re good at acting but acting for entrance exams and dramas is different. Even though I’m like this, I’m still an active college student at Seoguk University! So I can help you well!”
“You’re helping me? Are you not tired?”
“I’m not tired! “I’m completely refreshed.”
Seo Yeonsoo said, waving her arms as if to show that she was alive and well.
One-on-one lectures by active Seoguk University students.
He had no reason to refuse.
“I would really appreciate it if you said yes. wait for a second. I will change my clothes and come out. Shall we go to Byuldabang?”
“Can’t we just do it here without having to go somewhere else? If we go somewhere else, there will be people… It would only interfere with the acting. “I think it would be easier if it were just the two of us.”
That’s what I heard and saw.
“I see. Then let me ask you a favor. Then, let’s drink without the manager knowing. “I will make it for you.”
Seo Yeonsoo brightly responded to my words.
“Yes!”
***
BDD broadcasting station conference room.
Producer Na Jinho, writer Jo Seokwon, and the staff were having a meeting with serious faces.
“I think we got a really good actor for the role of Nakamura, producer. “He is exactly the kind of actor we wanted.”
The assistant director was impressed while watching Jinseok’s audition video. Producer Na Jinho said those words, pounding his chest.
“This is it. “This is the talent I discovered!”
Writer Jo Seokwon spoke to him in a sour voice.
“What kind of talent did I, PD, discover? “He was an actor recommended by a junior.”
“···Oh my, writer. “There’s no need to say that.”
Ha ha ha ha ha!
When PD Na Jinho spoke in a hushed voice, the other staff members laughed out loud.
Na Jinho glared at those staff members.
“These kids… Funny?”
Na Jinho’s harsh voice and eyes made the staff clear their throats and avoid his gaze.
Na Jinho glared at the staff again and said while looking at the documents.
“Now that the casting has been completed and the script has been revised, can we just schedule a reading?”
“Yes. Ah, PD. They say they have arranged the filming location, but they need to adjust the time. “How can we help that?”
“The assistant director takes care of that and only reports the results to me. But don’t set your schedule too tightly.”
“Yes, I understand.”
After that, various things were talked about for a while.
“I’m a director!”
At that time, someone kicked in the conference room door.
It was Choi Hoon, drama director at BDD broadcasting station.
Jinho Na tilted his head and asked.
“···Director? “What are you doing at this hour?”
The current time is 2 am. Although the PD and staff may not know, it is not common for the director to remain until this hour.
‘Is something wrong?’
Otherwise, there was no way the director would have entered the conference room at this time.
When Na Jinho was feeling uneasy for some reason, the director distorted his face and said,
“Fuck you… “You’re in big trouble.”
“Yes? What do you mean? “Is it a big deal?”
When Producer Na Jinho asked nervously, the director spoke even more excitedly.
“I just got a call from KL Entertainment, and they said these bastards won’t invest in this project. Since filming hasn’t started yet, they say they will charge a 50% penalty and withdraw the investment as per the contract?”
“···Yes? Ah, no, what is that all of a sudden…”
Now, the set and filming locations have already been arranged, and the casting of the cast has already been completed.
It was like a thunderbolt of news that arrived just before filming.
