National Intelligence Service Agent Reincarnated as a Genius Actor

audition preparation

saraak.

In the director’s room, where Cheol-min left, only the sound of paper friction was heard one after another as Yeon-woo turned over the script.

Yeon-woo begins to read the script completely immersed in the script.

The script Yeon-woo received was limited to only the third episode of the 16-episode and the fragmentary back part where the supporting role that needed casting in this audition first appeared, and this was highly likely to be continuously modified before the main filming began.

The original webtoon is a story that takes place while creating a clothing store called ‘Summer Wardrobe’ with friends of the same class to make money for the Paris Fashion Week, which was a dream of a female protagonist, Jung Yeo-reum, who is a student at the fashion design department. .

Looking at the contents up to episode 3, it feels like the love line between Nam Joo-yeon and Sub Nam Joo-yeon was added more heavily to the original webtoon.

“This is the part where we have to brighten up the atmosphere in the play, so make it as lively as possible…”

Yeonwoo analyzed all the characters while empathizing with them while taking notes so that the script turned black.

“Wow, imagining myself acting, honestly, I really like the main characters.”

Due to the light and fast atmosphere of the roco drama, the supporting characters could not be drawn strongly, so basically, there were scenes in which the main actors sympathize with the action or brighten the atmosphere of the drama with relatively comical performances.

On the other hand, seeing the lively, lively character and the lively and meticulously sculpted main characters, I naturally became greedy.

‘Still, I’ll try to play these kinds of roles someday, so let’s think about practicing in advance.’

After analyzing the characters, I turned on the camcorder in the practice room, stood in front of me, read the lines, and spit it out as I imagined in my head.

“What is it, Jung Summer? did you start first? You first, hmm. Did ‘you’ start first?”

Try adding accents here and there and find a natural tone that suits the situation.

– What is it, Jung Summer? Did ‘you’ start first?

Yeonwoo repeated the process of typing the lines and turning on the camcorder again.

So many hours have passed.

“Yeonwoo! Haven’t you been home yet?”

Cheol-min came back from a lesson in the next room.

“Oh, sir. If this audition goes well, I feel like I’m going to be in my first project, so I’m on fire.”

Yeonwoo smiles brightly as if she is really happy.

“But dude, it’s 11 o’clock soon. Worry about your brother and sister-in-law. I will help you in earnest after school tomorrow, so let’s go home today and I’ll pick you up.”

“thank you!”

When Cheol-min pointed out the door and beckoned, Yeon-woo got up with the script and got into Cheol-min’s car.

“Yeonwoo, I had a lot of lessons today, so I couldn’t help you at all. How was the work? Have you read them all?”

As he left the parking lot, Cheol-min asked Yeon-woo as if he was sorry.

“There are only 3 episodes yet, and the fingerprints are rough, but it’s fun!”

“Are there any characters you like? During my break, I asked my senior on the phone, and he said that he would perform freely within the script and, if necessary, instruct him to perform on the set.”

Cheol-min, who was worried about Yeon-woo, took advantage of the break to ask about the process.

“Among the supporting roles, I like Hwang Jae-il, who has a high proportion of roles, but if I can only get a role for anything, I have to work hard for a small role.”

“Yeah, just looking at your looks makes you feel like a lead role. Let’s use this opportunity as an opportunity to show your face. Even if it’s a small station, once you’re on the CRT, there’ll be plenty of opportunities, from now on.”

Cheol-min, who practiced Yeon-woo himself, was confident.

This audition and the future of Ryu Yeon-woo as an actor after that.

“Yes, I wish.”

Ryu Yeon-woo smiles lightly and makes a promise inside.

‘I will work really hard in this life, and I will definitely succeed as an actor.’

***

After four days of school, Yeonwoo ran to Burinake Academy to practice and practice.

“It’s already tomorrow, so I think it’s unconditional. it’s yeonwoo Director Kim Han-soo can’t miss a gem like you.”

“Hey, I’m a teacher’s disciple, aren’t my arms bent too much?”

Yeon-woo shivered a little shyly at Cheol-min’s words, who openly paints his face with gold.

“It’s not like that, ma’am. The teacher will pick you up tomorrow, so let’s go up and down together.”

“Teacher, it’s okay. I have all the train tickets in advance, and I can go there by myself.”

To Cheol-min’s words, Yeon-woo responded by waving her hand.

“I can cancel the train ticket, will you spend Seoul alone and your sister-in-law will work comfortably? I’ll call you and tell you.”

“Ah, then I’m sorry, but I’ll take care of you tomorrow. Thank you sir.”

Yeon-woo, who had been traveling alone in the operation area where shells fell in his previous life, was treated like a child, but he accepted Cheol-min’s warm heart and worried parents without further arguing.

And the next day was bright and the test was scheduled at 1 o’clock, but it was better to go early than to be late.

Cheol-min’s car arrived in front of a building in Gangnam.

“Yeonwoo, if I go in with you, there may be familiar faces, and it seems like I’m asking for nothing, so go up and come alone. It’s on the 8th floor of this building. When you’re done, call me right away.”

“Yes, sir. I’m going to be very excited!”

The corners of Cheol-min’s lips went up without realizing it to Yeon-woo’s answer, which was full of fighting.

“Who do kids these days say that they are crazy, fighting.”

“go for it!”

Yeon-woo turns around and enters the building.

“Seniors. I’ll send you a monster. You are blessed.”

In the car left alone, Cheol-min spoke to himself while looking at Yeon-woo’s back.

Tiling-. 8th floor.

When I got out of the elevator, there was a signpost with an arrow in front of me.

「Summer Wardrobe – This is the audition room.」

“Finally.”

Yeonwoo opened the door of the audition hall lobby and entered.

Meanwhile, sighs came and went in the central committee room inside the audition hall, which had been noisy since morning.

“I thought so. I’ve been strong since the first time I saw him.”

Writer Choi Mi-hyeon, who is in charge of the adaptation and script writing for this drama, spoke with a sigh.

A casting director who makes excuses with a troubled expression when he sees such writer Choi.

“Originally, the rumors weren’t very good in the broadcaster, but I chose it purely because of my face and popularity.”

“After I found out, the reason I quit being an idol was because my previous agency found out about it.”

Director Kim Han-soo opened his mouth at the words of the assistant director.

“What happened is unavoidable. What would you do? need to get a new one Still, it’s a million luck. Something happened before the press conference.”

Although he said that, director Kim Han-soo, who has always thoroughly prepared for everything and has a laid-back personality, has no choice but to sigh.

This morning, I received a call from the agency in charge of the actor activities of the idol-turned-actor Jung Min-hwan, who took on the role of the sub male lead, the third most important role.

‘I can’t join the work because it seems like it will be published soon after being found guilty of using drugs.’

‘We have not yet signed a formal contract between the production company and the agency, and we cannot ask for the penalty because it is before the production presentation.’

The casting director recalled the conversation.

“Actually, the penalty isn’t the problem, it’s the problem because it’s not listed.”

“I had no choice. Did you know that the airing date would be set so soon? Eww, this bastard’s full-length channel.”

Everyone’s faces darken at the words of director Kim Han-soo.

The drama “Summer Wardrobe” was planned for its first broadcast in the summer of next year and was going to be pre-produced, so I had enough time.

However, the show was hastily ended due to an affair problem with the host of the entertainment show currently running at the same time. After that, the airing dates of the sequels that were scheduled to be aired after that were rushed. It has reached a point where it has to be broadcast.

However, since the webtoon is an original, there is no need to come up with a script, so there is no problem in production as writer Choi can adapt it and quickly extract the script.

However, since now is a good autumn for filming, there are a lot of dramas that are just starting out, so everyone has already been cast, and there are not enough young actors with lead roles to hire.

What’s more, in this work, I had to play a 20-year-old, so I had fewer choices.

So even though the production cost was sufficient, the sub-male actor went punk in the yard where a supporting role was rarely selected through an audition, so we were in a difficult situation in many ways.

“That’s Okay. Let’s all stop sighing, since the start of filming is just around the corner, please list up as much as possible for Caddy Jung. Until I start shooting, I will mobilize my contacts and walk with both hands to find out.”

When director Kim Han-soo intervened, everyone nodded.

“Teachers, now that it’s time, let’s make sure that the supporting role is completely filled in today’s audition, and the sub male is the last button and let’s put it together well.”

The assistant director struggled to raise the mood and went out of the meeting room and informed the staff to start the audition.

“Okay, let’s all get up.”

When director Kim Han-soo woke up, everyone got up and headed to the audition hall.

And the audition waiting room.

There were about 30 people in the group, each preparing for the audition.

“Oh my, it’s been a while, Hye-soo.”

“Seniors. How you doing?”

The established actors smile and greet each other as if they are close.

“Hey, did you hear me? Han Joon-kyung said he was on drugs.”

“Huh, what drama are you filming right now?”

“I don’t know. Why are there so many drug cases in the entertainment industry these days?”

And people from the academy or the same department sat in a corner and chatted, sharing gossip like gossip in the entertainment industry.

Ryu Yeon-woo is sitting alone in the middle.

But everyone is looking at Ryu Yeon-woo with sideways eyes.

“Hey, but where did he come from? Waku is crazy?”

“Well, it’s the first time I’ve seen it. All the actors I’ve seen are the best.”

“If you look at the actors you’ve seen, there are other people besides our professors.”

“Oh, done! you see it on tv Anyway, he’s insanely handsome.”

Students from the theater department at the nation’s best performing arts university nodded at the friend’s words that they had no choice but to acknowledge.

However, one of them, who looked at Yeonwoo with distasteful eyes, spoke coldly.

“Still, he failed this audition.”

My friends stared at me when I decided to fail.

“why?”

“This drama is directed by Kim Han-soo. I have absolutely no tendency to pull out my face because it’s a bit flat. I heard from a senior that I have to show a charm that matches the character. At first glance, you look like a novice, but what kind of charm can you show in a situation that is too difficult to act?”

I don’t know where the stone came from, but since I’ve been on the acting board for a long time, starting with a child role, there were few aspirants or unknowns who didn’t know.

The first thing he saw was the story of a novice with no experience.

It was clear that he was just a kid who tried acting because he had a smooth face.

“I will start the audition. No. 1 participant Na Seong-jin, please come over here.”

The participants, who were babbling at the words of the staff announcing the start, stopped squinting and began to focus on each other.
