Superstar From Age 0-Chapter 696

“That’s great!”

Seo-jun smiled brightly.

He was happy to film with Kim Jae Yeon, even though he was not playing ‘Jin Natra’ but a different role.

‘Of course, there won’t be many scenes where we face each other directly.’

Since Seo-jun himself acted in the action scenes, the actor who played the villain, Kirk Lawrence, would also act in the action scenes.

So, he would have to train with Kirk Lawrence, just like he did with Evan, rachel, and Swalin at the training center during [Shadowman 3].

‘And the stuntmen will only film the dangerous scenes.’

That meant there would be hardly any scenes where he would fight against Jae Yeon hyung.

‘Hmm. Maybe none at all.’

He felt a bit regretful, and Jonathan, the director, seemed to notice his thoughts and added an explanation.

“Lawrence agreed to film the action scenes as little as possible. So, most of the scenes where he fights the villain will be done by Jae Yeon instead.”

…?

Seo-jun blinked his eyes.

Jonathan and the martial arts director smiled and said.

He’s an actor, right?

He’s supposed to act, right?

He does as little as possible?

They could see the questions on his face.

Jonathan, who had met various actors in the independent film scene, said.

“The actors you met were very passionate about acting. But there are actors like this too.”

The martial arts director, who had experienced many actors with strong personalities, added.

“It’s better to know and admit what you can’t do. It’s more annoying when they say they can’t do it in the middle of filming.”

True.

Seo-jun nodded his head, feeling a bit surprised by the type of actor he had never met before.

“Kirk Lawrence is a good actor, though.”

Jonathan, who had cast Kirk Lawrence, smiled as if he had received a compliment, hearing Seo-jun’s words after watching Kirk Lawrence’s works.

“Right? He’s a bit cold, but he’s not a bad person, so filming with him will be fine. He also keeps the filming time well.”

“He doesn’t cause any trouble either. That’s decent enough.”

“Right.”

The martial arts Director Ahnd Kim Jae Yeon nodded their heads at Jonathan’s words.

Seo-jun felt that he didn’t know much about Hollywood.

“Haha. Anyway, that’s how it is, so you’ll be acting with me in the action scenes. I’m counting on you, seo-jun.”

It would have been fun to act with Kirk Lawrence, but he thought it would be okay to act with Kim Jae Yeon too. He had some experience of matching their moves during [Shadowman 3].

‘If it’s Jae Yeon hyung, I can be more intense!’

He raised the limit of his action acting, which he had thought he should do moderately because of Kirk Lawrence, and smiled brightly.

“I’m counting on you too. Jae Yeon hyung!”

“Y-yeah.”

He felt a chill down his spine, but maybe it was just his imagination.

Kim Jae Yeon stuttered without knowing.

“Me too! Me too, please take care of me!!”

Philip Yoon, who had been quiet in the important conversation, finally found a chance to join in and raised his hand.

Hahaha.

The faces of the actors, the two stuntmen, and the Director Ahnd the martial arts director were full of smiles.

They felt like they would make some cool scenes.

***

An hour later.

“…I think I’m going to die…!”

The cheerful atmosphere was gone, and only groans were heard. Philip Yoon was completely exhausted, and Kim Jae Yeon was barely okay.

“Really?”

Seo-jun tilted his head as he drank water.

Philip Yoon looked at Seo-jun, who was fine even after the same training, with admiration in his eyes.

“This is a superstar…!”

“No, it’s just Seo-jun. Only Seo-jun.”

Kim Jae Yeon lowered his hand and looked at Seo-jun with a new eye.

“You were amazing before, but you became even more amazing as an adult.”

“Hahaha.”

The stamina of a teenage boy was amazing, but the stamina of a twenty-something young man was really amazing too.

No, looking at Philip Yoon, who was panting next to him, seo-jun was special.

“Look over there. The trainers are watching too.”

Seo-jun turned his head at Kim Jae Yeon’s words.

He didn’t care much about the eyes, since he had a job that received a lot of attention. But the meaning of this gaze seemed a bit different.

“…Do you think they want to test me, or is it just my imagination, hyung?”

Seo-jun asked Kim Jae Yeon, looking at the trainers’ eyes that were burning.

“Probably. You have a record of the test you took before, right? It’s a legend in the center.”

“A legend? What is that?”

Philip Yoon asked with sparkling eyes, and Kim Jae Yeon explained.

“Seo-jun was fifteen, or fourteen in American age, when he took the test at the center and got a perfect score. It was a perfect score for adults.”

“Wow!”

“Hahaha.”

Seo-jun scratched his cheek at the trainers’ and Philip Yoon’s more intense gaze.

Kim Jae Yeon continued.

“They must be curious how much you can do now that you’re an adult. The center’s test and machines have become more refined in the meantime.”

“So, how about a test, seo-jun?”

He heard a familiar voice and turned around. It was Aiden, who was Seo-jun’s trainer during [Shadowman 3].

“Aiden! Long time no see.”

“I heard you were coming today, but I was late because of an errand. But as soon as I got here, it was a mess.”

Aiden smiled and looked at the three people, shaking Seo-jun’s hand up and down.

The relaxed Seo-jun and the two stuntmen who were sitting tired. He could tell what was going on.

“So, what do you think, test.”

“Hmm.”

Did he really need to do it? Seo-jun wondered, and Aiden offered a carrot.

“If the result is good this time, I’ll tell the martial arts director that you can handle more action scenes.”

“I’ll do it!”

More acting opportunities!

He could take the test as many times as he wanted.

Seo-jun agreed at once, and Aiden sighed and said.

“…I shouldn’t say this, but don’t sign up for anything just because they let you act. Seo-jun.”

“Hahaha. Yes. I know.”

“Do you want to rest a bit? Or do you want to go right away?”

Seo-jun moved his body with difficulty and answered.

“I think I can go now.”

Aiden nodded and walked with Seo-jun, explaining the test. Kim Jae-yeon and Philip Yoon, who had regained their energy, followed them.

“Seo-jun hyung, are you going to get a perfect score again?”

Seo-jun and Philip had become like brothers after training together.

“Well, the machine has changed, so it might be harder. This time, it’s not a score, but a grade of A, b, or C.”

“Oh, right. I got a B.”

“B is a high grade.”

It was enough for him to get the role of William Lee’s stuntman.

“Do you think you can get all A+ if you’re Seo-jun hyung?”

“Then you’ll have less scenes to shoot, are you okay with that?”

It meant that the actor would have more scenes to shoot, and the stuntman would have less.

“It’s okay! I wish Seo-jun hyung would appear more than me!”

What a fan.

Kim Jae-yeon laughed at Philip’s sincere eyes.

The four of them headed to the test room in the main building of the training center.

Manager Choi Tae-woo and director Jonathan also showed up after hearing the story.

“Can I send the test data to Korea?”

“Yes, it’s fine.”

While Choi Tae-woo was busy doing his manager’s work, seo-jun’s test began.

“First, strength.”

The test continued with various aspects such as agility, flexibility, endurance, and so on. The trainer Aiden and the staff who checked the test could not close their mouths.

“Uh… Seo-jun is doing well, right?”

Seo-jun was doing the test so easily that it made them wonder if the test was too easy. Choi Tae-woo, who could not judge properly, asked Kim Jae-yeon.

“He’s doing great.”

Kim Jae-yeon answered without hesitation, and Philip Yoon just opened his mouth wide.

A short break during the test.

Aiden looked at the interim report and asked manager Choi Tae-woo.

“Manager.”

“Yes?”

“I heard that Seo-jun went to the army.”

“Yes.”

“…Was he in the special forces of the Korean army?”

“…Yes?”

…What did you say?

Aiden handed over the interim report to the superstar’s manager, who answered with his expression that it was not true.

“Whew. I’ve never seen such a result since I changed the machine.”

Not only Aiden, but also the staff nodded their heads. Choi Tae-woo looked at the report with a stunned expression.

The interim report was covered with A+.

“Wow. Is this real?”

“I’ve seen A+ in one or two areas, but…”

Jonathan and Kim Jae-yeon, who peeked at the report, could not help but gasp. Philip Yoon repeated, “He’s crazy! He’s crazy!”

“Did you do well?”

…Yeah. Amazing.

Seo-jun asked with a bright smile, and everyone could only nod.

Cocoa Entertainment, actor Lee Seo-jun’s dedicated team 1 office.

As the reservation day for Seo-jun’s fan meeting DVD approached, the sprouts and the fans of each work were burning more and more with the release of the sound source. The team 1 staff were busy moving.

“The site must not crash. Never.”

“Yes, sir!”

The photo book reservation a few years ago was like that, but this fan meeting DVD reservation seemed to be very fierce.

“We also have inquiries about the actor’s birthday gift!”

“Let’s do it as we do every year!”

And with Seo-jun’s birthday coming soon, there was no such chaos.

“Are Seo-jun and Tae-woo doing well?”

But they had been working with actor Lee Seo-jun for a few years.

They were used to Seo-jun, who was always the center of the storm, so they had some time to chat.

“It’s been four days since they went to the US.”

“But they only sent two… Seo-jun still looks like a child to me because I’ve seen him since he was young, and Tae-woo looks like a newbie.”

“It’s because the manager you compare with is not Director Ahn. Whoever comes as a manager will look a little lacking.”

Yeah, yeah.

Everyone nodded.

“By the way, isn’t it time for the report to come?”

“That’s right.”

LA time in the evening.

Unless it was urgent, it was time for Choi Tae-woo to send the report.

It was not formal, and it was just a report that briefly stated what happened today and what kind of training they did.

“It’s here!”

The report arrived in the mailbox.

Everyone opened the mail with curious faces. And then they all burst into laughter.

It was the same for Director Ahn Da-ho, who was in a meeting.

Seo-jun’s work was the first priority, so he set up notifications for all the emails from Choi Tae-woo. He could know even during the meeting.

Ding-

At the sound, he asked for a moment of pardon from President Seo Eun-chan and Director Kim Sang-jin (they were also curious) and read the mail, then burst into laughter.

“What, why are you laughing?”

“Is there anything wrong with Seo-jun?”

“No, it’s just…”

Director Ahn showed his phone with a smile on his face.

[Physical test conducted at the action training center]

[All A+ (first record in the center)]

[Remark: Trainer Aiden asked, ‘Are you from the special forces?’]

…Special forces?

“He was a national representative in the last test, and now he’s a special force.”

The two people burst out laughing at Director Ahn’s explanation.

***

-You were mistaken for a special force, huh?

At the voice full of laughter, seo-jun took the phone off his ear and looked at the screen.

Jack Smith.

It was Seo-jun’s old friend. A baseball player who had nothing to do with stuntmen or action training centers.

“How did you know?”

-Mom heard it from your parents.

Aha.

Then he understood. Mom and dad must have heard it from Director Da-ho or Uncle Eun-chan.

-You were mistaken for a special force, that’s amazing. As expected, seo-jun Lee. But isn’t special force a bit lacking? If you consider your acting skills, you should be at least an undercover agent or a spy, right? Like 007.

One of the people who knew Seo-jun’s true nature best, his old friend laughed. Seo-jun also laughed.

“You said you’re off on Wednesday?”

They talked about this and that, and time passed quickly. He could barely bring up the purpose of the call.

-Huh? How did you know?

“Dad told me.”

The source of information was the Smiths.

Jack’s laughter came across the phone at Seo-jun’s answer.

-We hear each other’s news from our parents.

“That’s right.”

Seo-jun also laughed. They were close as families, so the news was passed on like this.

“So if you don’t have any plans, let’s hang out.”

-It’s okay to play, but I don’t think that’s the only thing.

Seo-jun smiled at Jack Smith’s perfect deduction.

“That’s right. It’s my birthday soon.”

-Oh.

“I want to shoot a vlog to show the fans, but it would be boring if it’s just me, so let’s shoot it together.”

March 10th.

Another gift was to be delivered to the sprouts along with the fan meeting DVD.
