“ I’m not a shy kid, so feel free to think about it.”
The car on the way back to work was full of stories.
Mainly, there were talks about what kind of atmosphere WH is and what direction it is heading in the future.
We also had a brief conversation about the work we were writing.
When the story about Yuna came out, Hana Kim’s reaction was the hottest.
I think it’s probably because Yuna is the role model for the female lead I’m writing recently.
Then, suddenly, Kim Ha-na asked me if I was curious.
“Do you know what Yuna’s acting spectrum is like as an actress in the CEO’s eyes?”
“Yuna’s acting spectrum.”
That was something I was curious about too.
As expected, what is the level of Yuna’s current acting ability, which may be as good as Arin’s song, or even more?
Hana Kim’s question made me curious about that part.
So far, the only acting I’ve seen of Yuna is the movie ＜The Detective＞ and her cameo appearances in Hyuk-Jun’s dramas.
“One thing is certain. Yuna is better now than when she was filming the movie. I’d say he’s more advanced than he was in his recent cameo appearances.”
“is that so?”
Hana Kim nodded while slightly furrowing her forehead, as if she did not understand what I was saying.
It’s probably because he knows better than anyone else that acting doesn’t grow overnight like I said.
If acting skills improved that easily, there would be no actor in the world who would be criticized for awkward acting.
It seems that he thinks that he is saying these words because he thinks of Yuna, whom he cherishes.
I think he thought maybe he wouldn’t know if he met him in person.
Really I have no idea either.
The spectrum of acting Yuna can show right now.
Yuna met Dok Go-young on the set of the movie ＜Detective＞.
Even after that, I heard that he often visited Dok Go-young and talked with him.
There was no way to call Yuna because there was simply no one to talk to.
If it was Teacher Dok Go-young, whom I knew.
If so, indeed.
How old is Yuna now?
*
It was a meeting between Yuna and Hana Kim that was accomplished in that way.
“Chief! I ate sweet and sour pork with jjambbong for lunch today.”
Coincidentally, Yuna, who had lunch in my office without an owner, was alone.
I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or destiny, but what happened to Yuna’s hands were the synopses.
I could see the synopses I had taken out on the table, as if I had been reading the ones that came into the company because I was bored.
I asked if I could look at the synopsis that came to me the other day, so I said feel free to watch it whenever you want.
“hello. My name is Yuna from U & Na.”
Yuna, who was trying to show off how delicious the jjambbong she ate at lunch, saw Hana Kim who came in after me and greeted her first.
Receiving Yuna’s greeting, Hana Kim also introduced herself.
without mentioning the author.
“nice to see you. My name is Hana Kim.”
We met for the first time, but did something work?
The way they look at each other is strange.
Hana Kim looked alternately at Yuna and the synopses in Yuna’s hand and on the table.
Yuna was also looking at Kim Ha-na with strange eyes, as if she felt something.
Is this something that an actor and a writer feel when they meet?
The first person to speak at the end of the exchange of glances was Yuna.
“I see you are a writer. hello. This is Yuna, who also works as an actress.”
did you really find out?
It’s not a joke, Yuna’s eyes are quite serious when she introduces herself as an actress, as if she recognized Kim Ha-na as a writer at a glance.
Yuna explained to me, as if she had read my surprised feeling.
“I learned from Dokgo’s grandfather. About how great writers view actors. And I heard that all of those writers show great works.”
Yuna’s words of praise bring a happy expression to Kim Ha-na’s face.
The atmosphere that followed was friendly.
It was Kim Ha-na who even looked happy to see if Yuna’s appearance matched what she thought she was.
“I was very impressed with Yuna’s acting in the movie.”
“thank you.”
“You knew right away that I was a writer.”
Hana Kim quickly took out the synopsis she had and handed it to Yuna.
“Would you like to read it? It’s a synopsis I wrote.”
“really?”
Yuna is also happy with the new synopsis, and her eyes twinkle.
At some point, it seemed that Yuna also added fun to acting.
For a moment, silence fell in the office.
In the meantime, I quietly handed over coffee to Hana Kim.
After reading the script, Yuna’s gaze turns to Hana Kim.
“and. fun. It’s not empty talk, it’s really fun.”
Yuna’s eyes twinkle as she looks at Hana Kim.
It’s like a pirate who found a treasure.
I don’t mean to plunder.
It’s a look where you find sparkling gold in a really unexpected place.
“Ho, can you show me this scene?”
Hana Kim quickly took out the papers from her bag and handed them to Yuna.
I think it was a scene I wrote before I met Cha Young-joo today, saying that inspiration came.
According to writer Cha Young-joo, Ha-na Kim has a habit of printing out and reading after writing.
“Hoo. Is this character really attractive until the end?”
I heard from Yuna that she visits teacher Dok Go-young often these days.
Yuna’s eyes looking at the script are sharp as if she spent time learning and talking rather than just talking.
“that’s right! Instead, since it is a complex expression, I thought it would not be easy.”
There was a hint of hesitation in Hana Kim’s words explaining whether it was an ideal emotional expression scene that she had drawn in her head.
Listening to the explanation, it seems to be a scene to express the double emotions that are commonly said.
It was a scene that I couldn’t even dare to do with my acting skills.
“I was filled with joy that I finally caught the culprit with my own hands, but on the other hand, if I hadn’t made a mistake then. Frustration and sadness that if that was the case, my colleague wouldn’t have died. I have to express that complicated mix of emotions.”
It was a very difficult order.
And it was an emotional expression that the female lead should express at the climax of the work that Hana Kim thought.
Who is the best actor to play that scene? Even if I tried to think of it right away, it was not easy.
Kim Ha-na also asked me for an opinion, asking if I should revise the last scene a little while I was on the way to see if I was well aware of that fact.
however.
“I think it will.”
Kim Hana’s head turned around when she heard those words from Yuna’s mouth as she was looking at the script.
“yes?”
“I think it will. Just time to focus on mixing up these complex emotions. And you will need time to build your feelings.”
At Yuna’s words that it will work, Hana Kim’s eyes shine intensely this time.
“Ho, is it possible to express even a little bit, even briefly?”
Kim Ha-na’s face is desperate as she waits for an answer.
It seems that he is anxious about whether he will be able to see the scene he only envisioned in his head as a reality.
After a while.
The reaction of Hana Kim who saw Yuna’s acting and seemed to be out of breath at any moment.
I thought of this while watching Yuna calming Kim Ha-na.
this.
If done well, Hana Kim’s work could be a gift for Yuna when she enters college.
Called.
This is a drama that Hana Kim only thinks of Yuna.
To be precise, I am really looking forward to the drama that Hana Kim will complete in line with actress Yuna.
The day after Yuna and Hana Kim’s first meeting.
I was contacted by PD Lee Soo-young.
– Representative Choi. The production of the drama was finalized, but a little problem arose in the process.
Called.
*
A small problem arose with Kim Soo-jin’s next work, which he thought was cruising.
No, to be precise, it’s a bit of a serious problem.
I said it the other time when I met writer Cha Young-joo.
The place called this drama version was like a jungle.
A jungle full of people looking for an opportunity to steal the prey in my hand at any time if I’m even a little bit off guard.
The next work of writer Cha Young-joo and producer Lee Soo-young.
There was an actor who had his eye on the work.
Lee Joo-yeon, who is evaluated as if she would be treated at the top level if one or two more works were successful, expressed her intention to know how she knew.
From the drama department’s point of view, it would have been nice to see Lee Joo-yeon, who suddenly came in.
Producer Lee Soo-young, who is rated as the king of viewer ratings in morning dramas, but this challenge was in the main evening time slot, which was her first time.
The battlefield has changed from land to sea, so it would have been difficult to just trust PD Lee Soo-young.
“And if it’s Lee Joo-yeon, writer Cha Young-joo will have no choice but to be shaken.”
No one can guarantee ratings for a drama until it is actually opened.
Even the writers who recorded record-high viewership ratings with all of their previous works were not uncommon for the next work they prepared ambitiously to fall into disarray.
The actor who intervened was none other than Lee Joo-yeon, who was praised for leading the ratings of the previous film alone.
Of course, that part was the same for Kim Soo-jin.
However, Kim Soo-jin is in a morning drama targeting housewives.
Lee Joo-yeon already showed that appearance in a drama that aired at the same time.
Even actors who led the same ratings had to have different evaluations.
Because the latter was already an actor like a guaranteed check that showed ratings in the main time slot.
“Soojin.”
“yes?”
“don’t worry.”
“sure. I trust the representative, so I am not worried at all.”
It’s hard to believe when you say it with shaking legs like that.
No matter how much Lee Soo-young PD’s choice is for Kim Soo-jin.
And even if writer Cha Young-joo and I shared opinions about Su-jin Kim’s appearance several times.
Until the casting was finalized, what could change at any time was the position of the female lead.
Even if I were the writer Cha Young-joo, I would have no choice but to put Kim Soo-jin, who has potential for growth, and Lee Ju-yeon, who has already matured, on the balance sheet.
“okay. Trust me and wait.”
The drama department said they strongly pushed Lee Joo-yeon.
If this continues, Sujin Kim will fall.
So I had no choice but to step out.
Who can exert the most powerful influence on drama production?
It was writer Cha Young-joo who was writing the script.
Because no one can ignore her opinion as a star writer.
I visited writer Cha Young-joo and appealed to the strengths and possibilities of actor Kim Soo-jin.
All that remains is to wait for the results.
It was then.
Park Il-do with an urgent expression opened the door and entered.
“brother! A drama casting article has appeared!”
At Park Il-do’s shouts of excitement, I turned on my cell phone and looked at the articles that were just starting to come up.
Maybe the look on my face reading the article right now is a surprise.
The articles starting to come up that much were enough to surprise me.
“CEO?”
Could it be that I felt uneasiness in my expression?
Sujin Kim cautiously calls me.
this.
The result was completely different from what I expected.
Should I call this a bad news for Kim Soo-jin, or a good one?
I look up and see Kim Soo-jin, who couldn’t even take out her phone because of her nervousness.
“Soojin. Check it.”
It was Kim Soo-jin, who trembled at my words and took the cell phone in my hand.
After a while.
Inside the office, Kim Soo-jin’s screams filled with joy erupted.
From noble mtl dot com
I turned my gaze back to the articles on the cell phone on the desk.
Article titles come to mind.
[Cha Young-joo’s new work. Lee Joo-yeon and Kim Su-jin female lead casting confirmed]
[Double protagonist this time? Writer Cha Young-joo’s bold challenge]
done.
＜ Episode 84 ＞ End
＜ Episode 85 ＞
Lee Ju-yeon’s manager, Park Sang-heon, visited Lee Ju-yeon’s house early in the morning.
The reason I came here in the morning was simple.
It was announced in an article yesterday that the main character of the two-top system was confirmed.
Would I have been very angry?
With such concerns in mind, manager Park Sang-heon cautiously rang the doorbell.
“uh? Is the manager brother here? what’s going on in the morning come in.”
calm.
And he didn’t seem to be in a state of anger like he feared.
I could tell because it was Park Sang-heon, who worked as Lee Joo-yeon’s manager for over five years.
As we walked into the living room together, Park Sang-heon quickly brought up the main topic.
“Juyeon-ah. I know you read the article yesterday. The company strongly pushed for this, but it was inevitable.”
“know. I heard the writer strongly pushed the actor over there?”
Lee Joo-yeon said calmly as she handed over a warm cup of coffee that she said was morning coffee.
But it was something I didn’t know yet.
Because the title of actor was not attached for nothing. It was too soon to be relieved until Lee Joo-yeon’s inner thoughts were accurately grasped.
Lee Joo-yeon’s appearance was already confirmed at the top of the company.
Here, Park Sang-heon was given the role of calming Lee Ju-yeon so that she would not get angry.
“I heard that there are many reviews internally that this work by Cha Young-joo is worth looking forward to.”
“know. So after I got to know you, you said you really wanted to do it.”
“And I briefly checked the synopsis that was changed to a two-top system. Rather, it had more of a feeling. Because this is really great.”
Coincidentally, the writer had been pushing Kim Soo-jin to obtain a revised synopsis.
“okay? Give it a try. Look at how much the role passed to me has increased in supporting roles.”
Lee Ju-yeon, who reached out to Sang-heon Park and received a synopsis, sat down on the sofa.
Then, quietly, I started reading the synopsis.
Park Sang-heon quietly put down the coffee cup he was drinking in order not to upset her.
After a while.
“It’s okay. As if he was the main character from the beginning, his role is significant. Rather, I like this character more.”
“okay?”
At Lee Joo-yeon’s words, it was Park Sang-heon who quickly raised his coffee cup and took a sip.
My mouth was dry before the words came out.
