by admin‘Wow, I’m getting nervous, having only the most important people here.’
On the morning of the audition, Son Ji-woong PD of ‘How I Became an Actor’ thought. The luxurious panel of judges was the cause.
Lee Geum-suk, a famous “golden hand” writer, Seo Yeon-ju, an actress who has recently risen to prominence as a symbol of purity, and Choi Hee-won PD, who is said to have a brain that is superior to a fit body.
Even after thinking about it again, it’s a great lineup. All that’s left are the participants.
Son Ji-woong looked down at the gathered participants once more.
‘Fortunately, there are many participants. There must be at least one person who will capture the hearts of both the judges and the viewers.’
It seems the rumors that more people are interested in acting these days are true. You can feel it just by looking at the number of participants.
The crowd that gathered was incomparable to the previous audition programs. There is no need to worry about the number at all. Now, the important thing is the quality of the participants.
And not only that?
‘Elements for success. None of them should be missed.’
Systematically prepared missions, participants who will receive people’s sympathy and support, participants who will play the role of villains, and those who will compete with their skills…
None of them should be missed. Everything must come together to create a good flavor.
While looking down at the situation from above with a sense of excitement, Son Ji-woong PD’s gaze suddenly stopped at one place.
‘…What’s with that face? She stands out so well, even here.’
A female participant.
Despite her outstanding appearance, no one approaches her. All they do is stare. The reason was the fierce atmosphere surrounding her like a barrier.
As he was admiring the woman’s features one by one, someone tapped Son Ji-woong’s shoulder. AD. Assistant director.
“PD-nim, you were thinking the same thing as me while looking at the same person, right?”
“How would I know who you were looking at?”
“Who else could it be? It’s that woman shining brightly even here.”
His admiration for the woman was not his own feeling. As expected, her appearance stood out noticeably to others as well.
“First of all, it’s true that we saw the same person.”
“Then all we have to do is compare our thoughts. I think that participant would be great to use as a clip in the first episode.”
Even the thoughts he had were the same. Son Ji-woong nodded.
“The material is certainly excellent. With that face, anything would be a fun scene. We’ll get quite a few views.”
“Right? That’s why, how about giving that participant a script envelope that’s already opened from the start? To make her even more tempted.”
Son Ji-woong PD frowned slightly at the assistant director’s words.
Let’s make an interesting program, but let’s not create victims. That was the belief he cherished.
“Another devil’s edit? That’s too much, isn’t it?”
“When did I say I was going to do a devil’s edit? I’m just intending to. Anyway, we have to shoot as much as possible so we have something to work with later.”
“First of all, we’ll proceed with filming like that, but when editing, it has to go through my review. Don’t make anyone cry blood for no reason.”
“Yes!”
“Ah, and.”
Son Ji-woong called out to the assistant director who was about to leave.
“What do you think of that woman? Do you think she’ll be good at acting?”
“Hmm…”
The assistant director narrowed his eyes slightly. Soon, he shook his head.
“If you asked me if she was pretty, I’d nod without hesitation, but I don’t have high expectations for her acting. Wouldn’t she be better suited as a model than an actress?”
“I don’t like this. I have too many overlapping thoughts with you today.”
The assistant director smiled at Son Ji-woong’s joke.
“First of all, her mask is too defined, isn’t it? She’s a character who can’t handle a variety of scripts.”
The assistant director clicked his tongue.
“Our program aims to pick an all-rounder.”
“That’s right.”
“I hope she doesn’t do well as a warning. Are there only one or two people who think acting is easy just because they have a pretty face? It’s also disgusting how washed-up idols are sniffing around the acting scene.”
“Okay, okay, calm down and go do your work.”
He hurriedly sent the suddenly overheated assistant director back to his seat, but in fact, Son Ji-woong’s heart was not much different.
Her unique atmosphere is so clear that her acting seems lacking. That was his assessment after seeing so many people.
However.
Contrary to the assistant director’s expectations, Lee Soo-ah didn’t particularly care about the open script, and she didn’t even seem nervous. Is she used to this kind of situation?
And.
Finally, when Lee Soo-ah’s acting began.
That thought shattered like a pane of glass.
“Did he die…? Excuse me, excuse me…”
The faces of the five judges were worth seeing. Each of them had shocked faces, and everyone felt a similar shock inside.
Lee Soo-ah.
A participant who appeared like a meteor, breaking down prejudices.
“I don’t want to…! I don’t want to…! My life, my life…!”
[You accidentally killed someone.]
That’s all that was written in the script.
Soo-ah didn’t just focus on acting out the emotion of ‘panic’. It seemed as if she already had a world of her own in mind.
Son Ji-woong PD’s head was spinning from the shock.
‘A restaurant, characters other than herself, the situation… She conceived all of that in less than a minute? In such detail?’
He had to admit that the conversation he had with the assistant director was completely wrong. Soo-ah’s acting was different from the conception.
‘…Besides, that gaze, is someone telling her what to do?’
Soo-ah’s gaze and the way she moved her body brought another huge shock.
‘She knows. If there’s a camera, where it will be pointing.’
It would be amazing if she was just good at acting, but she was clearly aware of how her appearance would be captured. Thanks to that, the interview room turned into a set for a while.
It was only natural that Seo Yeon-ju asked later.
“…Could it be that acting is just a hobby for you?”
“Well, something like that.”
Is this a hobby?
That’s a statement that would kill several people who act for a living?
Lee Soo-ah answered most of the questions briefly and bluntly, and the judges were only occasionally surprised.
The interview ended like that. And now…
“Son Ji-woong PD.”
Lee Geum-suk, a famous “golden hand” writer, called Son Ji-woong.
“Yes, writer-nim.”
“You have to catch that friend. You know?”
“…I think so too.”
Son Ji-woong nodded and grabbed his cell phone.

Meanwhile, Soo-ah was busy studying her 3rd perk.
“Hmm, it’s puzzling.”
An unsolved question. There’s no choice but to retrace it one by one from beginning to end. Soo-ah struggled to gather the memories left in her head.
‘Suddenly the last perk was unlocked, and I was dragged to a meadow with a strange notification window… That’s definitely what happened.’
The 3rd perk Soo-ah obtained. ‘Time to Act’.
After being dragged away, she had the experience of killing someone, and it was too vivid to dismiss as just a dream. The sharp object that dug into her skin and the body that trembled in shock.
It seemed that it would not be difficult to recreate that scene even now. Just like there was such a moment in her life.
‘A feeling of being forcibly injected with a certain situation and memory?’
It was truly strange, but there was no other way to express it.
At the moment she experienced past reincarnation, Soo-ah was confident that there would be no more surprises. She thought that she would not experience anything more unusual than this.
That thought has just been shattered. The 3rd perk is really unique.
‘Could it be a perk that allows me to experience what I’m going to act in advance? Is that what it means to be a perk in the acting field?’
A strong guess. Soo-ah continued her exploration, connecting the dots.
‘Let’s also carefully consider the activation conditions. At what moment was it unlocked? So, it was definitely when I touched the script with my hand.’
Yeah, that’s right. That’s what happened.
Soo-ah immediately looked around.
She wanted to activate the 3rd perk right away. There is a great need to master it as quickly as possible.
“Let’s find any script and touch it. A script… a script…”
But as expected, it wasn’t easy from the start.
A script? There’s no way I’d have something like that at home.
But I have a computer. I immediately searched the internet.
[Only cafe members can download!]
“Damn it.”
These days, when copyright issues are becoming more serious, downloading a scenario script is like reaching for the stars.
After searching for a long time, she barely found a crude adult novel.
[The Wolf and the Fox’s Sticky Time]
“…Even so, this is a bit much.”
What can I do? While agonizing over and over again.
“Huh?”
[Actor Recruitment Announcement]
▶ Independent Film ‘Scorpion Fish’ Production
▶ All proceeds will be donated to children in need.
▶ Applicants should check the attached script.
“I finally found it. A script!”
Actor recruitment for independent film production? She wasn’t interested yet. Soo-ah downloaded only the script and printed it out immediately.
Soon, when she touched the printed script with her hand.
‘That’s it! I knew this was right!’
Whoosh─
She felt a sensation of her mind being sucked somewhere.
