Release date of the movie “Sketch”
“Ah, hello. I wish you all the best in the future!”
Director Hwang Min-kwon enters the conference room with a 90-degree greeting to an actor who is over ten years old.
In fact, he was like a rookie in commercial films as there were only start-up films and apprenticeship short films that were not only the name of the director.
“Please take care of me too. Director Hwang Min-kwon and Director Jeong Yo-han.”
Hwang Min-kwon’s mouth was torn when he saw Ryu Yeon-woo greeting him with a smile.
“Ugh, it’s director Hwang Min-kwon. Awesome.”
“Ah, that’s a little embarrassing. Please try to be bluffing.”
Hwang Min-kwon and Jeong Yo-han, who was embarrassed by such a friend, sat down at Heleleha.
“Now that we’re on the same boat, I think it’s important to start with a scenario that can be called the skeleton of that ship and start with it.”
Both of them nodded at Yeonwoo’s words.
“By the way, as I said before, the materials are good, but that…”
Hwang Min-kwon slowly turns his head as if he doesn’t have confidence while blurring the end of his words.
Yeon-woo looked at CG director Jeong Yo-han who was sitting next to him this time.
“Director-sama…”
“I am science.”
“yes?”
“Anyway, it’s science.”
Then, while fiddling with the frames of his glasses with his fingers, Jeong Yo-han turns his head to the other side in the same way.
Seeing this, I felt that the two were definitely friends.
Seeing the two of them, Yeonwoo smiled and opened her mouth.
“That’s why. I want to find the writer, leave the skeleton as it is, and attach the flesh.”
“Oh, I’m Chansung, but in my network, I don’t know any writers, let alone aspiring writers…”
Yeon-woo takes out his smartphone from his pocket after hearing Hwang Min-kwon’s answer.
“Then is it okay if I hire you?”
“Oh, of course.”

Nodding her head, Yeon-woo called somewhere.
Hwang Min-kwon and Jeong Yo-han, who are looking forward to who they are.
The call was quickly connected, and it was not a speakerphone because it was a quiet conference room, but a cheerful woman’s voice could be heard even in their ears.
– Oh, why did you call me first? Yeonwoo Mr. Anyway, congratulations
“Thank you. Writer. You called me often though.”
– Every time I get a call, I’m so happy.
After talking about various things, Yeon-woo got to the point.
“Do you remember the promise you made with me last time?”
– Oh, of course. I’ll do anything.
“Then you and I will do one project together, writer.”
– yes? Work? I haven’t written any screenplays other than short stories right now…?
Yeon-woo looked at the two men in front of him and spoke again.
“There is a material that the director brought, and I wanted the writer to participate and add flesh to it.”
– So, you think the story will be long? Anyway, I am a person who unconditionally keeps promises. I’ll do anything.
“Thank you. Then I’ll hand over the detailed story and scenario as data. We’ll have dinner soon, writer.”
After that, after saying a simple hello, he hung up the phone and Yeon-woo looked at the two of them.
“The writer has been hired. Directors.”
During the conversation, they both asked Yeonwoo at the same time, wondering who the other person was.
“Who are you?”
“I’m Kim Jin-ju, a writer.”
“Ah, yes. You are the writer Kim Jin-ju.”
The two of them looked at each other once and asked again, who nodded their heads thinking that it was without much thought.
“…Yes? Who?”
“I’m just asking, if you’re Jinjoo Kim, are you talking about the star writer who wrote “The Scent of Time” and “The Road to Mont Saint-Michel?”
Yeonwoo nodded and smiled.
“Yeah, that’s right. And you’re the writer of my first lead role in the drama, “The Star Beyond the Clouds.”
The two directors in front of them opened their mouths wide as if their chins were falling off.
“Great, great…”
“Hey, is this going to end in a jackpot? It’s an invitation.”
Looking at the two of them, Yeonwoo smiled.
“Then I can’t decide on the other parts right now. I don’t know how the content will change, so it’s difficult to cast.”
“I’m satisfied enough just to make it. I’ve waited my whole life, but it’s okay to wait a little longer!”
At the words of director Hwang Min-kwon, Yeon-woo nodded.
“I have some academic problems, so I think this project will be a little slow.”

Click.
Writer Jinjoo Kim sat in front of the computer and clicked on the received file.
“Hmm, medical action? What is this…?”
When I saw the first chapter, I had no idea what it was about.
Writer Jin-Joo Kim, who reads quite a lot of screenplay in one sitting.
The main character, Jeong Do-jin, was selected as a rising name among the young generation of specialists.
A man who boasts of an overwhelming cure rate in cancer hospitals, and is followed by the modifier ‘You can get better with just your hands’.
In order to receive treatment from him, only the minimum reservation period reached half a year, and terminally ill patients who were at risk of dying stood in line to receive treatment, even if they had to pay for it.
However, in fact, Jeong Do-jin was an ordinary person during his medical school days, and he was not a prominent doctor even when he was a major.
From one day, the cure rate of his patients suddenly started to rise dramatically, and many people asked for the secret, but they replied that they were only treating with sincerity.
Jeong Do-jin had a secret he couldn’t tell anyone, and that was the absurd story that he himself went into the patient’s body for treatment.
Entering the body does not mean possessing.
It is a story about reducing the size of micrometers to the size of a real cell and treating it inside the body like a real cell.
One day, seeing a patient whose condition was getting worse despite extensive treatment, he grabbed the patient’s hand and leaned on the chair next to the bed to fall asleep, and then realized his ability for the first time.
After dreaming of traveling to a world he had never seen before and fighting a monster, his symptoms began to improve like a lie, and the patient was discharged soon after.
“Hmm, the idea of going into the body is not something that didn’t exist at all.”
Among American films in the late 80’s, there was a sci-fi movie ‘Inner’ in which a person enters the body on a submarine, and there is also a Japanese animation in which cells are the main characters.
It was difficult to see this as a really novel and novel material.
“Well, it’s interesting to link the subject with a doctor, but that’s not enough. Still, if you see Yeon-woo calling me, it means that the script has power.”
Writer Jinjoo Kim began to focus on the screenplay more and more.
In the drama, Jeong Do-jin uses her powers to treat patients and lives a happy life, feeling wealth, fame, and reward. One day, her only sister is hospitalized due to leukemia.
It wasn’t his field, but Jeong Jeong-jin used his younger brother’s powers to enter the inner world.
After that, he could not get out for six years and was trapped in the world of his younger brother.
“Hmm, it gets more interesting from now on? So, is the time in reality stopped in the meantime?”
Writer Jinju Kim quickly scrolled down and read the back story.
Click! Click!
The non-stop sound of mouse clicks.
Writer Jin-ju Kim fell into deep thought after reading all the way to the final chapter.
“What is this? The setting and material are really good, but why does the story look like this in the middle?”
Suddenly, without end, an important supporting character betrayed, and a space ship appeared or a dinosaur came out of nowhere.
If this was a webtoon or a web novel, there were a lot of ‘getting off’ points.
Only then did he realize why Yeon-woo had called him and nodded his head.
“It is definitely a work that I am greedy for as an actor, but it must have been a problem because the story went this way.”
Writer Kim Jin-ju picked up her smartphone and called Yeon-woo.
Yeonwoo’s voice is heard over the fast-connected phone.
– Yes, writer.
“I’ll take over this work. It’s not because of a request, but because I want to do it. As a writer, I can’t stand the contamination of such a good subject with such an absurd story.”
***
At this time when Yeon-woo and Kim Jin-joo were talking on the phone, “Sketch” was finally released in Korea.
Hong Yuri also went to the cinema with her boyfriend Kim Junsu from lunch.
“Junsu, I think Yeonwoo is becoming more and more difficult. He also received awards overseas.”
“Ah, but sometimes on the phone or in a group chat room, it’s the same as in high school, right?”
Kim Junsu nodded his head, thinking of the perfect friend, even with his personality.
“Still, I haven’t been able to see you lately because I’ve been busy. Last year I went camping for the last time. Ah, my favorite celebrity… It was like a dream that day.”
“Well, that’s the day I confessed. I don’t think I’m the focus of my dreams?”
Seeing Junsu with his lips protruding, Yuri grinned.
“No, that’s not it.”
Junsu smiled and nodded his head as if it was a joke.
“Actually, I did survival shooting together and went to the Pool Villa, but it’s been a while. Anyway, I’m here to see you now.”
“Hehe, is that so? You can see it on the screen.”
Hong Yuri and Kim Junsu buy popcorn and cola, sit in the lobby of the movie theater, and wait for the entrance time.
Just then, I heard a voice whispering from behind.
“Ugh, Mom. I’ll do better in the future. Let’s make a video together. Huh?”
– What kind of bullshit is this guinea pig calling all of a sudden? what video.
“No. Let’s just take a video with me. Remember my mother’s voice. Sigh.”
– What did you buy? Mom, I’m busy right now, so tell me.
It wasn’t just the woman sitting in the back who was screaming. Everyone who came out of the movie wiped their tears with their sleeves or had their noses red.
“… Noona, what the hell was he filming?”
“Didn’t Yeonwoo tell you what it was about while filming?”
“I was told it was a music movie with a youth romance. That’s why I practice guitar and violin…”
When it was time to enter, the two stood up.
“What is it? I’m curious! Let’s go inside.”
Junsu and Yuri moved towards the theater.
Meanwhile, it wasn’t just the two of them entering the theater.
The gentleman in a suit with neatly organized pomade hair also moved on.
In fact, it was CEO Kim Joo-seong, who put the investment instead of Yeon-woo, but he did not know the contents of the scenario.
Yeon-woo also received an offer from director Park Chan-hong and decided to appear and invest without checking the script, but CEO Kim Joo-seong also believed in the actor he had chosen and offered Yeon-woo a contract.
“Hmm, it’s a contract that has already been successful.”
It is the first day of release, so the future performance is unknown, but even if it was a box office failure, it is safe to say that it has already recovered the 1.5 billion won investment since it obtained the distribution rights to the work that won the Golden Bear.
‘And there’s no way you can’t recover your investment.’
Director Park Chan-hong invested 3 billion won, and LN invested 1.5 billion won in the name of Ryu Yeon-woo.
Ryu Yeon-woo’s share is 33%, and he decided to receive 30% of it in return for paying the investment, so the company’s share is about 10% of the total profit.
Of course, since it is a profit excluding the share of the distributor and other expenses, it will not take 10% of the total revenue, but it was not a problem compared to the expected number of audiences that CEO Kim Joo-seong thinks.
Currently, Ryu Yeon-woo and Park Chan-hong are hot enough to appear in any media.
Celebrity channels and You Tube are natural, and their names go up and down in the news all day.
In a way, it was natural to see that all the hostesses of the Republic of Korea were overworked by the promotion of national prestige.
As if to prove that, the movie theater was crowded even though it was lunch on a weekday.
It is still the winter vacation season, but considering the heavy snowfall in the morning, it was highly likely that everyone in the lobby of the cinema was waiting to watch the release of “Sketch” today.
“Investment is also an investment, but I can’t stand it because I’m curious about what it is about.”
As CEO Kim Joo-seong, who likes movies more than anyone else, in order not to be spoiled by any spoilers, he also gave orders to manager Kim Min-su and team leader Jeong Hyuk.
So, CEO Joo-Sung Kim quietly walked towards the entrance of the theater with high expectations.
