unexpected departure (5)
Finally, for the first time together with Oh Tae-woo, he stands side by side in front of the camera.
After filming mainly Yoo Jung-ah’s appearances, the timing to match the sum has finally arrived.
Yoo Jung-ah did not leave the scene and was watching next to director Choi Hong-rae wearing Choi Ye-joo’s outfit.
“I’m finally officially standing in front of the camera with the detective.”
“What should I do with the feeling I had at the fan meeting?”
“You can do that, or you can give yourself to other feelings.”
“Let’s be gentle, please. Mr. Jeong Seo-hoon is a veteran rookie, and I am a newcomer who came to work part-time for a while.”
“I will do well.”
“It’s even more scary because you’re holding each other like that.”
The strange tension that flows between the two is somewhat similar to the heart of an older brother who hates the man his dear sister has a crush on alone.
“Standby, cue!”
The camera starts rolling.
The scenery surrounding Jeong Seo-hun has changed.
Unnecessary spectators are erased, and a large and colorful office takes its place in the background.
– Oh, chief.
For a very brief moment, I felt Oh Tae-woo struggling with an unfamiliar sensation.
The power of the lens was clearly influencing him now.
How would he see himself and this space in his eyes?
‘Others said it was a feeling of being extremely narrowed and focused only on me.’
They cannot see the scenery created by the power of the lens they see.
However, the sense of incongruity created by the existence of the landscape often appears in the form of ‘visually narrowed stuffiness’.
-Did Ye-ju bring you back?
Oh Tae-woo, who seemed to be struggling in a swamp of incongruity, suddenly changed his eyes.
In an extremely short moment that the director couldn’t notice, Jeong Seo-hoon felt the smell of a beast nestled in his eyes.
Instead of answering verbally, Oh Tae-woo gave a brief nod.
The combination of narrow static movements and reticence makes you feel the heavy trust.
-Is he a bit difficult? Still, it’s because there’s no one to trust other than Chief Oh. Be patient.
– It’s not hard.
A short, bold answer came out of his expressionless face. It is a tone that reminds us of a human weapon whose emotions have been castrated.
-egg plant.
Jeong Seo-hoon led the way, and Oh Tae-woo quietly followed and naturally scanned left and right.
“Cut!”
The director’s autograph came out, and the power that wrapped around Jeong Seo-hoon disappeared.
How did this large detective accept the strange absence of a sense of incongruity that was removed in an instant?
“there… … .”
An uncharacteristically hesitant voice called to me.
“thank you for your effort. He gave a short but very impressive performance.”
“Is there anything strange about the lighting or reflectors on set?”
“Is that strange?”
“Well, the camera is running and I suddenly feel like I am hypnotized. Oh, I don’t know how to explain this.”
Oh Tae-woo couldn’t find the words to properly express it, perhaps because he was frustrated even thinking about it himself.
“I think it’s because you’re too nervous to be in front of the camera.”
“nervous… … It certainly wasn’t.”
Oh Tae-woo tilted his head as if he didn’t understand, then looked straight at Jeong Seo-hoon and asked.
“Do you hypnotize me?”
Jeong Seo-hoon replied with a sociable smile.
“It can’t be.”

‘Only the first day was good.’
Today, as we headed to the set, Oh Tae-woo grumbled inwardly.
‘It will rot, I regret it. Why did I suddenly accept that I was appearing and go through this hardship… … .’
Where stars go, of course, fans go too.
With that kind of fan spirit, I appeared on the show, and it was definitely good until the first day.
I actually matched acting with Yoo Jung-ah, I could see her acting right in front of my nose, and I was shy but was able to show her acting scenes.
It was really good until the first day.
From the next day, Yoo Jung-ah did not come to the scene.
‘If you think about it, it’s natural.’
Yoo Jung-ah must also have a busy schedule, and there is no reason to come to the set when all the filming is over.
When she was nowhere to be seen, Oh Tae-woo suddenly lost everything on the set.
It makes me feel like an idiot myself to wonder why I am struggling to pay even the minimum wage while paying annual leave.
‘Still, today is the last day.’
As of today, all of his filming ends.
Jeong Seo-hoon said he was filming a little more, but he said there was no scene where he appeared.
Oh Tae-woo, who parked a large SUV in the parking lot, entered with his characteristic wandering step.
The frowning complexion suddenly brightened at the sight of an unexpected person.
“Ah, Yoo Jung-ah?”
“I came to play for a while. I heard that today is the last filming?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“It’s good that you came today. I don’t know if I’ve been resentful or not. They said they neglected the fans who followed the stars for too long.”
“no. It’s been a few days.”
Oh Tae-woo, completely forgetting the skepticism he felt a moment ago, smirked inwardly, saying that it was good that he appeared on the show.
“Isn’t filming very difficult?”
When Yoo Jung-ah smiled wide and worried, Oh Tae-woo’s heart seemed to melt like snow.
“no. What am I having trouble with? You can just hang around by the side without saying anything and just give strength to your eyes. But unlike the first time, there are too many lines, so it’s hard work.”
Originally, Chief Oh was a minor role with no lines, but Choi Hong-rae added some simple lines to show consideration for Oh Tae-woo.
‘Yes’, ‘Okay’, ‘You’ll do that.’ It was a simple line, but it is the existence of a minor actor that hangs even a few lines.
But it was just an annoyance to Oh Tae-woo.
“Still, the director praised me for saying that all vocalizations were good. He said that next time he could take on a more important supporting role.”
“Oh, I made good memories with Jung-ah, so that’s it. Songchungi should go eat pine needles.”
“Will you refuse even if it’s the same drama as mine?”
“Phew, why are you putting me to the test?”
Yoo Jung-ah laughed as if she was having fun.
“Today is the last day, so cheer up. I’ll live, so the three of us go out to eat together later.”
“If I want to get the food that Mr. Jeonga buys for me, I will have to squeeze in the power to pull the trigger and act.”
“What expression is that? It’s too old.”
* * *
The size of the influence other actors receive from the power of the lens appears differently depending on the size of the vessel or the mindset.
The person who has been most influential so far has been senior actor Lee Min-soo.
It may be because of his long experience in acting and his sincere passion for acting.
In the case of semi-supporting actors and extras with low experience or skills, most of them did not respond at all.
And from Jeong Seo-hoon’s point of view, Oh Tae-woo was a little different.
‘This person is not acting.’
He’s just showing his true self as usual, it’s not acting in the true sense.
My eyes are drawn to him because he resembles himself so much when he first played Lee Jin-wook.
At that time, to be honest, I wasn’t acting, but I was just showing my true self that others didn’t know about.
‘If that’s what you saw, what kind of past did that detective live?’
The more Jeong Seo-hoon matched with him, the more curious he became.
There is an eerie anticipation to say that he is simply a detective who has been confronting violent criminals for a long time.
Jeong Seo-hoon brought out the unbearably condensed impulse with ad-libs pretending nothing was wrong.
-Oh Chief, how many people have you killed?
It’s an ad-lib that’s not in the script at all, but the director watched with bated breath without shouting cut.
Depending on how Oh Tae-woo reacts, his fate will be determined whether he will become a NG or go to a scene to be saved.
– Why are you asking that?
A fine crack was engraved on the expression that was full of emotion.
The director, who was looking into the monitor, clenched his fists and cheered inwardly. This is a scene that can be saved.
-If it’s one or two, it’s a defective product, and if it’s more than ten, it’s a well-maintained knife. Oh, which one is the manager?
The vision of the power of the lens is clearly showing.
Oh Tae-woo is not acting now, but just shows his true self, as he did in the past.
All the staff mistakenly thought it was real and vivid acting, but Jung Seo-hoon, who had gone through the same experience, could see through the difference.
– This is a very good knife.
-yes? You can continue to believe and use it in the future, right?
-Yes.
I can feel the faint joy hidden in the short and bold answer.
It is a relief that only those who can openly talk freely about their own secrets that must be hidden can only be taken.
Since Jung Seo-hoon had already been through it, I could well know how Oh Tae-woo was feeling now.
– Oh, chief.
Jeong Seo-hoon’s eyes, not Yoon Se-hyun’s, dig into Oh Tae-woo’s retina relentlessly.
Jeong Seo-hoon imagined that he would have found himself naked in his eyes. Then it seems to be quite enjoyable.
He has no intention of acting seriously.
I’m just satisfied with the reality that it’s OK even though I’m revealing my hidden self to my heart’s content.
I didn’t like to settle for that small satisfaction.
Why is there a person who can do much better than now?
-Keep doing it like you are now. In the future.
I hoped that he would notice the mockery of the secretly mixed irony.
Looking at the faint twitching of one eyebrow at the moment, it seems that the riddle that was blatantly overlaid on the accent was properly deciphered.
Oh Tae-woo again, instead of answering, just lowered his head.
“Cut.”
The director talked to the cinematographer for a few words before calling out to the two actors.
“It’s just a 1-second indoor scene where you’re moving in a car. It’s a waste to fly this, so I’ll go in the direction of saving it. But how did you come up with such an ad lib?”
“Since I was immersed in Yoon Se-hyun, I suddenly had that thought. How many people have my loyal dog killed?”
“What exactly do you mean when you say that you can’t use one or two tools?”
“If they killed one or two people, it would be a petty murderer or a robber. You can’t trust and entrust security. But if it’s ten or more… … .”
“A man with a secret?”
“Yes.”
Jung Seo-hoon looked back at Oh Tae-woo calmly and asked a question.
“The Chief Oh I saw was such a character, what do you think, detective?”
Eyebrows tremble slightly.
Jeong Seo-hoon seemed to know what moment he was recalling without looking into his head.
‘Have you ever killed a detective?’
‘I knew from the beginning.’
‘hehehe, hee hee. Now, are you finally admitting it?’
drawn
The scene of the impromptu acting is now a storm that relentlessly grinds in Oh Tae-woo’s head.
“Oh, what… … At first, I just heard that it was a small role without a single line of dialogue, so I didn’t think much about it. But after listening to Seohoon Jeong, it seems that he is right.”
Even though he sees Yoo Jung-ah approaching, Oh Tae-woo’s expression doesn’t lighten up very much.
“Anyway, my filming is over as of today, so let’s go eat now. I am also looking forward to the drama. I will definitely see you later.”
A bright smile appeared on Oh Tae-woo’s face as he turned his back and greeted Yoo Jung-ah.
It’s a pity, but it was too obvious that it was acting.
* * *
Three days later, the filming of Jung Seo-hoon was all over.
It was thanks to the director who took care of him first and set the schedule.
The rest of the parts where Jeong Seo-hoon did not appear in episodes 5 and 6 were also filmed at a speedy pace, and after a while, he was invited to a dinner party to commemorate the end of filming.
I felt Oh Tae-woo, whom I hadn’t seen again in a while, secretly peeking at this place several times.
It was a gaze with no jealous fan spirit due to the old scandal with Yoo Jung-ah.
“It’s a Net Prime pre-produced drama, so it’s a hit. That way, you’ll be able to crave for your next work too! Ha ha ha ha ha!”
While the director and actors were having fun, Jeong Seo-hoon deliberately and suddenly bumped into Oh Tae-woo’s gaze, who was once again spying on him.
As soon as I smiled, Oh Tae-woo naturally looked away as if he had just glanced around.
After the dinner, the director worked on finishing editing before airing.
And finally, the release date of Net Prime has been decided.
