National Intelligence Service Agent Reincarnated as a Genius Actor

The Star Beyond the Garm – Audition

Kick-.

The door opened with a creepy sound in the darkened space.

Click-.

The lights went on and a shrill voice was heard.

“I told you not to do this last time. Why are you waiting with the lights off?”

“Oh, I’m sorry. I like dark things…”

A man who opens his mouth by waving his hand as if he is annoyed.

“Okay. Ask Kim Gye-sik to come in.”

“Yes.”

As soon as the man called somewhere, the door opened and another man came in.

“Did you call?”

“Oh, Manager Kim. Come and sit down.”

When the man in the upper seat called, Kim Gye-sik quickly walked over and sat down in front of him.

“Among the kids you’ve worked with, make a drug and send it to the press.”

“What size should I send…?”

The man in the upper seat, who was rubbing his chin, made a voice that sounded like iron again.

“There’s that CEO Yoon’s son.”

“Are you talking about Bonglim Construction?”

“No, not the old man who builds that ship.”

“Ah, you mean Yoon Kwang-seon from Jeongyang Shipbuilding? That’s your daughter.”

Hearing this, the senior man frowned.

“Is it a daughter? I thought it was a son because it was a hit and run at speed. Anyway, we have to cover up the incident.”

“Yeah, then I’ll prepare it in that size.”

***

Three days later, the day of the audition was adjusted.

Yeon-woo goes to KBC in Min-su’s car.

Team leader Jeong-hyeok, who was already in the car, asked Yeon-woo.

“Actor. Did you prepare well?”

“I’m an audition expert.”

Yeon-woo smiles at the question of Team Leader Jeong.

“That’s right. Director Chan-Hong Park has also fascinated me. Still, a genuine actor will not be an easy opponent.”

“That’s right. I found the works and they did well.”

As soon as I parked the car in the parking lot of the broadcasting station that I arrived at, the station staff who spoke to Minsu came and gave me guidance.

When Yeonwoo and his party moved from the annex to the main building, fans waiting for idols to come to a music show recognized Yeonwoo from afar.

“Huh. It’s Ryu Yeon-woo!”

“Wow! Oppa!”

“Awesome. Take a look here!”

Yeon-woo drew a heart with his hand while looking at the side where the sound was coming from.

“Come in. Actor.”

Following the staff who opened the main building door, we went into the waiting room of the hall, where we found director Lee Sang-hoon and writer Kim Jin-joo, who directed ‘A Star Beyond the Garm’.

“Ah, welcome. Mr. Ryu Yeon-woo. This is director Lee Sang-hoon.”

“Hello. Director.”

Yeon-woo greets director Lee and writer Kim in turn.

At that moment, the door opened and Jin Yu-han and the Enter staff entered.

The director greeted Jin Yu-han, and as soon as the greeting was over, Jin Yu-han approached Ryu Yeon-woo.

Ryu Yeon-woo reached out and greeted him first.

“Nice to meet you. Today we have a good competition.”

“Yes. I saw you once at the awards ceremony. This role is so attractive that I can’t give it up.”

Jin Yu-han smiles and greets, but seems to be fighting an invisible nerve war.

On the other hand, Yeon-woo doesn’t seem to care much, but is just interested in meeting an actor of the same age.

Director Han Young-ho whispered into Jin Yu-han’s ear.

“Isn’t it more common than I thought? Wasn’t it nervous that the color of your face didn’t change?”

Jin Yuhan shrugged as if he didn’t care.

“In the end, acting skills will determine the outcome.”

Jin Yu-han does not even have any doubts about his acting skills.

At that time, director Lee Sang-hoon opens his mouth

“Well then, I think it would be better for the two of us to do it separately. Would it be okay if Jin Yu-han did it first?”

“Yes. It’s okay if I do it first.”

“I don’t mind either.”

Director Lee Sang-hoon nods his head.

“Then Ryu Yeon-woo will wait here, and Jin Yu-han will go into the stage hall first.”

Ryu Yeon-woo and his party are sitting on chairs in the waiting room, and Jin Yu-han and their party are entering the stage hall.

Team leader Jeong-hyuk said as he looked at Jin Yu-han as he entered.

“There is definitely an actor’s pose.”

“In my opinion, our actor Ryu has a much stronger pose, right?”

Min-soo floats the plane for fear that Yeon-woo will die for nothing.

“Hey, that’s right. What a natural thing.”

Staring at Minsu, Team Leader Jeong spoke quickly.

Yeonwoo smiled looking at the two of them.

After 10 minutes or so, a group of Jinyu-jin who came out quickly.

Seeing the bright expression on his face, he seems to have come out as well as prepared.

Actually, it was a career that I slowly built up from a child actor with more than 10 years of experience, but it was strange that I couldn’t.

Meanwhile, the directors in the stage hall.

“Hmm, it’s definitely a proven skill.”

“Actually, it’s a strange actor to say that he’s doing our drama at the moment. I thought he’d only do movies in the future.”

The director evaluates Jin Yu-han, who has just started acting.

There was nothing to evaluate. There was nothing to criticize because he played the role so perfectly.

At that time, Kim Jin-joo, who was quietly looking at the script, opened his mouth.

“Obviously, I’m good at acting, but I can’t show you anything beyond the script.”

“Ah, writer Kim. You didn’t even expect it in the first place. That’s the part you need to direct on the set.”

At that moment, Ryu Yeon-woo and his party come in through the door.

Minsu and Team Leader Jeong sat on the chairs in front of the stage hall, and Ryu Yeon-woo went up to the stage.

The directors open their mouths as they watch Yeonwoo on stage.

“You sure look top tier? I was surprised to see you before.”

“The previous work was a box office hit, but it wasn’t a role that showed great acting skills.”

“It’s all about making cameos in movies.”

“But, since director Chan-Hong Park saw something, wouldn’t he have cast the lead role?”

The director nodded at the casting director’s words.

At that time, director Lee Sang-hoon, who was already somewhat moved by Jin Yu-han, opened his mouth.

“Now then, let’s start the private audition for the role of Seo Hee in ‘The Star Beyond the Garm’.”

“Yes, I’m ready.”

Yeon-woo standing in front of the camera on stage to warm up, and the directors looking at Yeon-woo with the monitor and the naked eye respectively.

“Please start with the first fingerprint.”

Ryu Yeon-woo catches the emotions of director Lee Sang-hoon’s words.

In an instant, Yeonwoo’s expression reflected in the monitor changed.

“If we had to get married by arrangement, wouldn’t that prove that our family doesn’t have that much power in this Goryeo land?”

A line that sounds like the mourning of the youngest member of a chaebol family who is not yet mature.

Because he is a great historical figure and the male protagonist of the play, it is the exact opposite of Jin Yu-han, who spoke strongly with a rather tragic and thick voice.

The director is interested in the same lines but completely different vocalizations.

“Father. I don’t think there is any need for us as a family that has contributed to the founding of the country.”

This time, he seemed to be a little conciliatory, and as if there was no noble family higher than his own in the Goryeo land, he showed confidence and seemed to stimulate the courage of his father Seo-pil.

And Yeonwoo finishes the line with a louder voice than before.

“Please use my free marriage as an opportunity to reveal the majesty of the bookshelf.”

The director, who sat comfortably in the chair with his hips slightly lowered, was ‘persuaded’ by the minutely changing facial expressions and tone of voice, and the more he typed the lines, the more he bowed his upper body forward and changed to a serious listening posture.

“…as expected, I thought that director Park Chan-Hong didn’t just pick him.”

“The details are amazing. I think he’s a very clever actor.”

“You passed the Korean University.”

“Wow, right? Got it now.”

After looking at the gossiping director, Lee looked at Yeon-woo again and opened his mouth.

“It was a good performance. Can you do the second fingerprint right away?”

“Yes. Of course.”

Ryu Yeon-woo relaxes his neck and concentrates on his emotions again.

If it is the second passage, it is the part where only the lines were written without explanation.

Kim Jin-joo, a writer who brightens her eyes out of fear.

“I’ll start acting.”

At the same time as announcing the start, Yeon-woo started his lines with strong vocalizations with a sad face and a disappointed expression on the other hand.

“How can you be so spiritless and helpless? Take another step back. If you take one step back, you have to take ten thousand steps back in the past.”

At such a young age, it was as if Seo-hee, who became a scoundrel of the Goryeo royal family and spoke to unjust subordinates, was able to see how she uttered such deep utterances that revealed such dignity and authority.

However, Jin Yu-han’s acting was similar.

Of course, it is surprising that he is acting at a similar level to Jin Yu-han, who has been acting for more than half of his life for 12 years, but the director expected something slightly different.

And writer Kim, who was a bit disappointed when acting with the same interpretation as Jin Yu-han.

As director Lee was about to say that he did a good job, Ryu Yeon-woo spoke again.

“Let’s start the second act of the second passage.”

The casting director and the writer and director are interested in starting a second performance even though they gave only one second fingerprint in the first place.

The reason why Yeonwoo said that it was a little wicked comparing the audition fingerprint and the treatment was because he thought that there were two places in the work where this fingerprint could be used.

The first is Ryu Yeon-woo’s first acting and Jin Yu-han’s interpretation of the second half of the generally imaginable confrontation between Yo and Goryeo, giving a hint to the bureaucrats who insist on surrender.

The second is right now.

“Hmm.”

Yeon-woo, who said that he was going to start acting, slowly moved back and forth while looking up at the sky with his back on his back. The face is full of trouble.

“How can you be so spiritless and helpless?”

Seo-hee, who recently learned that her unrequited love for Hong Eui-yeon is the same not only for herself but also for her close friend, Lee Ji-baek.

“Are you going to take another step back?”

Seo-hee is worried as she leans back and looks at her toes.

Then, as if he had made a decision, he made a sad expression on his face.

“If you take one step back, you have to take a ten thousand step back.”

Then, Seo-hee loosens her back and walks towards someone with a dignified step.

The same lines were said, but when the tone was changed and appropriate actions were added, the director’s eyes did not see the old Seo-hee he had seen before, but a young man in love for the first time.

It feels as if all the invisible stories of this young man are being conveyed.

“That is all.”

Writer Kim Jin-ju, who was quietly looking at Yeon-woo, opened his mouth.

“…I don’t want to work without this actor.”

Director Lee Sang-hoon raises his hands and shrugs while looking at writer Jin-Joo Kim.

“Don’t worry. I’m thinking the same thing now.”

Director Lee Sang-hoon got up from his seat and approached the stage.

Then, director Lee Sang-hoon goes up and reaches out to Yeon-woo to shake hands.

“You do it with us. After seeing it in person, I can understand Park Chan-hong’s choice.”

Then Yeonwoo smiled.

“I will repay you with good acting.”

Director Lee Sang-hoon looks at Yeon-woo like that and smiles face to face, then changes to a slightly troubled expression.
