50 – Career (5)
Oral interview.
This test, which lasts about 5 minutes per person, is simply an interview to find out what level the applicant’s major knowledge is.
And there are other questions besides questions related to your major. For example……
“Why did you apply for the video production department at Hanlim Arts High School?”
This is the most typical question for me right now.
A very obvious, predictable question came up, so I answered it like a machine.
“What movie or TV show impressed you the most?”
And this is also a question that was anticipated in advance.
I confidently replied, ‘Fly high’.
There is no particular reason why I chose this work out of countless works.
“Then, please tell us about the theme or planning intention of Fly High.”
It was because there was a very high probability that a related question like now would come.

That’s why I mentioned fly high as part of it, and let out a roar of joy inwardly when I heard the linking question.
To be honest, I’m the one who wrote the story of Fly High, but there’s no way I don’t know the theme and planning intention, right?
There are two major plans for Fly High.
One was made in hopes of a happy future for both mother and daughter, and the other was made to instill dreams and hopes into growing youth.
Of course, the former is a secret between the two mothers and daughters, so even if you tell it, it will probably be difficult for you to understand.
Think about it.
What kind of lunatic would think of writing a story for only two people and making it into a TV show?
By the way, that crazy guy is me again.
hehehe…….
Anyway.
Answering the latter, which is easy, would fit the gist of the question.
I spoke about Fly High’s planning intentions as it is and confidently.
“I think the planning intention of Fly High is to instill dreams and hopes into growing youth.”
“Poop!”
…… ?
However, the reaction is unusual.
For some reason, the teacher who asked me about Fly High’s planning intention burst out laughing.
As if he was laughing at my answer.
That’s kind of unpleasant…….
It was then.
“Lee Sang-ho. What is the meaning of that smile?”
Song Ha-yul, the director of Hanbit Art High School, who was sitting in the center of the teachers, spoke for the first time.
She suddenly turned her head and glared fiercely at the teacher who had laughed at me.
“Heh heh, Chairman. The student’s answer was so naive that it was hard to find an inadvertent laugh.”
“Then do you think that student is wrong?”
“Of course. Could it be that someone like the author of 927 planned Fly High with such a simple intention?”
Lee Sang-ho, a teacher, then spoke confidently about his argument.
“Fly High is literally a bloody battle of youth to become a bigger sun! The main characters try to shine a bigger light through constant friction and explosion, absorbing the light of the characters who were already shining brightly and completely swallowing it up. So…… ”
It was too long, so I skipped it in the middle, but it is roughly said that the planning intention of Fly High is that great persistence devours great talent.
Um… If it wasn’t for the interviewer, I’d like to say something from the bottom of my heart.
I’m tired of writing the screenplay.
.
“Hmm…… “
Meanwhile, Song Ha-yul, who was listening to teacher Lee Sang-ho, began to think about something.
Then she smiled at me for some reason.
“What do you think of what Mr. Lee Sang-ho just said?”
What do you think and sleep? It’s just bullsh*t.
What…….
It’s an interview, so I can’t say it directly like this, so I said it with a friendly smile.
“I respect diversity of thought. Maybe the author of 927 has the same wish.”
“Ha! That sounds like a sarcastic remark that says I’m wrong.”
I was silent at the words of teacher Lee Sang-ho.
Since there are many meanings of silence, you should decide for yourself.
“Chairman! There’s nothing more to see about this student! Just disqualify it!”
Teacher Lee Sang-ho, who slowly blushes and starts to get angry when I am silent.
But do you usually say that directly in front of the person in question?
Looking at the level of teachers at Hanbit Art High School, it seemed like something was getting worse.
…… But.
“Lee Sang-ho.”
At that moment, Chairman Song Ha-yul’s cold voice resonated throughout the room.
Teacher Lee Sang-ho instinctively swallowed his saliva as he sensed something strange in the bloody atmosphere of the chairman.
“… Yes? Why are you calling-“
“Leave this room immediately. And don’t set foot in Hanbit Notice again.”
“Oh no! Chairman! What are you talking about!”
“It literally means dismissal. So, stop interfering with the interview any longer and get out of here quickly.”
Wow…….
He has so much charisma.
It was a great cider that would make me want to applaud it if it wasn’t for the interview.
Lee Sang-ho trembled at Song Ha-yul’s bloody atmosphere and ran out of the room.
And Song Ha-yul, who confirmed that he had run out, bowed his head to me.
“I apologize for the attitude towards teacher Lee Sang-ho earlier. Still, not all teachers at my school are like that, so please don’t think badly of me.”
After her sincere apology, the interview resumed in a slightly chaotic atmosphere.
The remaining teachers lowered the level of the question a lot, probably considering the situation just now. Thanks to that, the oral interview went smoothly.
After the 5 minutes had passed, I slowly got up from my seat.
Now, if you leave the room after giving a polite greeting to the teachers sitting in front of you for the last time, the long practical test is all over.
I bowed slightly, said hello, and walked towards the door.
But…….
“Student Eunwoo Seo. Can I ask you one last personal question?”
When I suddenly grabbed the handle of the door, Director Song Ha-yul asked me.
To be honest, I’ve been feeling strange ever since.
Chief Song Ha-yul, who glared at me terribly at first and kept looking at me head-on.
Why didn’t she ask me a single question?
I removed my hand from the handle out of curiosity.
And he said.
“Is that question also included in the interview?”
“No, I promise it won’t affect the interview in any way. In the first place, your evaluation has already been completed. So please answer as comfortably as possible.”
As proof of her trust, she completely removed my evaluation sheet from her hand and set it down on the desk.
Similarly, the other teachers next to him also put the evaluation papers down on their desks, noticing the chairman’s notice.
Certainly, with that level of sincerity, it is trustworthy considering being deceived once.
I nodded in affirmation at Song Ha-yul’s words.
Soon, she asked me with eyes full of anticipation.
“How would you rate the 927 artist?”
After hearing Song Ha-yul’s question, I don’t know his intentions anymore.
Why does she ask me such a thing?
Simply curious what students think of the 927 writers?
In that case, it would have been okay to ask during the interview instead of now…….
“… ….”
She was still waiting for my answer with her hands on her chin.
What… Whatever the reason, it wasn’t a difficult question to answer.
Yes. If possible, I will try to give a slightly serious answer. In return for kicking out the truth teacher earlier and for handing over a polite apology first.
…… I thought about it.
What kind of person is an artist called 927 from my standards, not others?
To be honest, I don’t think I’m as great a person as the public evaluates.
I fell into the world of the drama, and it was a world where the fun and level were several steps lower than in my previous life, whether it was a movie or a drama.
In a way, I think it was only natural that he was able to succeed as a writer.
That’s why I like ‘927 Artist’…….
I evaluate myself like this.
Dubuck-Dubuck-
I slowly approached Chairman Song Ha-yul.
It’s a little too openly to tell everyone what I think, so I whispered into her ear.
“□□ □□ □□.”
***
After all the schedules for the entrance exam for the video production department were over, Song Ha-yul was facing someone alone in the room he had used as an interview room earlier.
“Yes. Donghun Han. Is this the composition of the story the student wrote?”
“Yes. Chairman.”
Just in time for the interview to end, Han Dong-hoon, who was in charge of the story composition test supervisor, went to Song Ha-yul holding only a few pieces of paper.
The paper was Seo Eun-woo’s story composition test paper.
“This is my personal opinion, but I think that student Eunwoo Seo should be accepted unconditionally.”
No matter the outcome of the interview, Seo Eun-woo must pass the exam unconditionally.
The reason Han Dong-Hoon came to Song Ha-Yul in a hurry with a male student’s test paper was to convince her as much as possible.
If I had the interview with the attitude I had at the time of composing the story earlier, it would have been very risky, not just a little bit.
Song Ha-yul carefully read the test paper handed to him by Han Dong-hoon.
And……
“Ha ha ha!”
She suddenly laughed heartily.
From Han Dong-hun’s point of view, it’s a very bewildering situation.
From noble mtl dot com
He is the kind of person who always maintains his dignity in front of teachers and students in any situation, but he laughs so loudly like that?
For a moment, Han Dong-hoon was mistaken that he had given him the wrong exam paper.
The story created by student Eunwoo Seo is a beautiful story that brings tears to my eyes and warms my heart.
“What an arrogant and humble genius!”
And as Song Ha-yul’s self-talk, whose meaning was unknown, continued, Han Dong-hun could not help but tilt his head.
Arrogance and humility.
It was also because these two contrasting words came out of her mouth, and Song Ha-yul’s expression now looked genuinely happy.
“Hmm?”
At that time, Donghun Han discovered something.
His gaze was on the desk where Chairman Song Ha-yul was sitting.
And there was a picture of student Seo Eun-woo’s face that I saw earlier.
It seemed that it was an interview evaluation sheet for student Seo Eun-woo, which was graded by the chairman himself.
Just…….
If there’s one odd thing about it, it’s that nothing is really written there.
He’s as if he’s a student from the start that he never had to evaluate…….
