Intermission (6)
Jeong Yi-hyeon’s parents considered their children to be their property.
“Can’t you solve even one easy problem?”
“Look at your brother. Even if you don’t go to an academy, you go straight to S University, but this little brother…”
I compared the excellent hyung and Jung Yi-hyeon and pressed them.
They thought that without them, Jung Yi-hyeon would not be able to function properly as a human being, so they were tied up.
“I… I want to do music…”
“music? Can you make a living doing it? Do you think you have musical talent?”
“Just think about going to college. Artificial intelligence today? coding? That kind of thing is the trend.”
you must live like this You must not deviate from the set rails. After living under such pressure, I stumbled into a different path just once.
“When did you join the band?”
“Uh, huh?”
As Ajitato rode the media and spread word of mouth, his deviation was also revealed.
Jeong Yi-hyeon’s parents also did not support him. interfered Can you make a living as a band? This popularity also shines and then disappears. Find a stable job quickly.
“I heard from your brother, but your band… there are a lot of gossip about it.”
“that······.”
“stop. It is embarrassing to see others.”
In addition, as the band itself was criticized for Yoo Tae-hyuk’s actions, the parents’ pressure became more and more severe.
“no, I do not want.”
“You are twenty-seven now. Now, what shall we do if the wind blows late…!”
“So you said you wanted to do it from a long time ago!”
“Did I tell you not to? I told you to get your college diploma and do what you want to do!”
“Then what is this!”
Jeong Yi-hyeon threw a question book for the civil service exam that his parents had bought for him. It was like talking to a wall.
The director compared Jeong Yi-hyeon’s family to ‘society’. I’m not saying to recklessly rebel against society, but I’m talking about various negative coercions that are packaged and interfering with society’s gaze.
[That’s… I’m sorry. Because the director’s nephew wanted to do it.]
[If you debut as an idol right now, you won’t be active for long before you have to go to the army.]
[Since I’m a bit older, I’m just looking for another way… Do you want to try composing? Or something about acting…]
In Kang Ha-joon’s case, they were the people who stood in the way of his dreams.
‘Come now?’
Kang Ha-joon’s childhood was spent as an idol trainee. I thought there would be no other way.
“How long are you going to stay like this?”
“Are we going to do it for the rest of our lives? Until you act as a human…”
“How long!”
Actually, I didn’t want to close my dream like that.
“In my mom and dad’s eyes, I’m always an ugly child!”
Jeong Yi-hyeon cried out loud as tears dripped down his cheeks. His features were covered with evil.
‘What did I say?’
I told you that Kang Ha-joon is perfect for the role of Jeong Yi-hyeon. Director Shin Ji-won looked at Jung Yi-hyeon on the monitor and smiled as if he was satisfied.
In the meantime, the three of them also arrived at Jeong Yi-hyeon’s house.
“Looks like they’re fighting?”
Yoo Tae-hyeok, Oh In-soo, and Min Jun-young, who secretly climbed over the fence and hid, pressed themselves against the wall as the commotion flowed from the house. They also heard Jeong Yi-hyeon’s anger.
“Your parents are too kind.”
“Hey, hide. behind.”
After some time, Jeong Yi-hyeon’s parents came out.
“Ugh, that’s just empty wind…”
“Now that I’ve said this, I won’t think about anything else. Because he is such a kid.”
they get in the car and leave Min Joon-young and Oh In-soo were embarrassed by Yoo Tae-hyeok, who had already gone away.
“What are you doing?”
Following the brazen Yoo Tae-hyeok, I snooped through the window of the house and found Jeong Yi-hyeon’s room.
Jeong Yi-hyeon opened the window slightly when he saw three people knocking on the window outside.
“hey. Jeong Yi-hyeon.”
“How do you know this place…”
“You took me before.”
Oh In-soo narrowed his eyes. Min Joon-young noticed that Jeong Yi-hyeon’s face was red.
“Hey, what’s wrong with your eyes?”
“Nothing.”
“Are you sure you were right?”
Oh my, it’s different. Taehyuk Yoo clicked his tongue.
“Open the door a little more.”
“uh?”
Entering the house through the window, Yoo Tae-hyeok looked around Jeong Yi-hyeon’s room.
The room was like an IKEA showroom. It didn’t smell like human life and was too stereotyped. Everything that didn’t suit Jeong Yi-hyeon’s taste seemed to have been decorated by his parents.
‘The bookshelf is deep. How many books are there?’
Then he threw the book from the cover to the floor. The books hidden deep inside were all about music and instruments.
“Yes, admit it.”
“what?”
“Even now, to be honest, I hate to see you.”
“If you’re here to pick a fight, just leave.”
In fact, Yoo Tae-hyeok was in a good mood.
“You all looked easy.”
He was envious of Jeong Yi-hyeon, who did everything well even without trying as hard as he did.
His skills were gradually declining, but Jeong Yi-hyeon looked brilliant. He was the near perfect person he thought he was.
‘Would things be different if I were like you?’
I probably didn’t let go of the violin. However, Jung Yi-hyeon, who thought he would be so perfect, had this kind of trouble hidden.
“But now you look more human.”
“Do you know that I live like this because I want to be like this?”
“so.”
“I was jealous of you.”
Was only Yoo Tae-hyeok jealous of Jung Yi-hyeon? Jeong Yi-hyeon was also jealous of Yoo Tae-hyuk.
Yoo Tae-hyeok easily won the music that I could barely catch after struggling like this. Maybe in the past I did what I wanted to do. The past, the freedom was envious.
“So, what do you want to do now?”
“what.”
“Are you going to lock yourself in there and live according to what your parents tell you to do?”
Are you going to keep living up to what someone is forcing you to be normal? It was a question asked by Taehyuk Yoo.
“Sometimes, listen carefully to your parents.”
“Is it really necessary to talk about it in this situation?”
I didn’t know the family would be like this. Yoo Tae-hyuk muttered and prepared to go out the window again.
“You choose. Are you going to quietly prepare for the civil service exam here, or are you going to have fun with us?”
Going out to play is, of course, music. It’s just about having fun, regardless of money or anything else.
Yoo Tae-hyeok just held out his hand. It is Jeong Yi-hyeon who has to do it himself to escape.
Yoo Tae-hyeok went out again through the window. The window slammed shut.
“Lee Hyun closed the window?”
“Hey, can I just stay like this?”
“wait.”
Then all of a sudden, a big bang! The window is broken.
“Ouch f*ck!”
“Suddenly what?!”
While waiting, I was struck by lightning. The three hurriedly escaped the shards of glass and looked at the house, looking at Jeong Yi-hyeon with a baseball bat. The baseball bat his father had hit him with, breaking the wall.
Jeong Yi-hyeon threw his luggage through the window. It was accepted by the three people below.
“Can I sleep in the practice room?”
“Sure.”
Yoo Tae-hyeok and Jung I-hyun felt jealous when they saw each other, but at the same time they were each other’s saviors.
Yoo Tae-hyeok created an opportunity for Jeong Yi-hyeon to come out of the stereotypical society, and because of Jung Yi-hyeon, Yoo Tae-hyeok created an opportunity to escape from his confined thinking.

“Can I really use this as a prop?”
“It can be ruined. No, you can break it at all. If it’s Mr. Jay.”
“Really?”
“yes. Actually, I was really trying to break it.”
It is not a prop for filming, but a violin with the director’s finger marks on it. It looked pretty old, but the price seemed considerable.
“Nuna, isn’t the average protagonist’s anguish more convincing the more bare skin is visible?”
“Right, right.”
Baek Do-gyeong as Min Joon-yeong and Nam Chan-hee as Oh In-soo grabbed a passing staff and said, It was clear that Yoon-jae was telling everyone to listen to the fact that his voice was quite loud.
From noble mtl dot com.
“What kind of logic is that?”
“Hyung, I’m not kidding about the silhouette even now, are you going to Sangtal? Let’s show our coolness.”
“Because I am like this.”
Yoonjae roughly lifted the clothes with one hand. What stood out more than sculpted abs were the scars left on his body. However, Baek Do-gyeong and Oh In-soo did not care.
“Wow six pack!”
“Hyung, how do you exercise?”
I lost. Yunjae lowered his clothes again and shook his head.
“Looked clean from the crown?”
“It was cremated.”
“Ah… it’s a pity.”
Yoonjae burst into laughter at the sight of the two, and suddenly felt their eyes on him and raised his head. The eyes that were focused on him suddenly disappeared.
what was it Yoon Jae, tilting his head, was called by the manager.
“Need some time to immerse yourself?”
“yes.”
“You have a lot of time, so take it easy.”
Yoonjay sat down on the bed and stared at the violin standing on the wall.
Choi Soo-jin, the head of production, stood next to Shin Ji-won. The director continued to look at Yoon-jae and said softly.
“Sujin Choi, did you look at me openly earlier?”
“Kuhmm… shut up. Anyway, but anyway.”
“why?”
“Don’t you give Mr. Jay a direct?”
Although the dream he had as a child has been shattered, Kang Ha-joon will be satisfied with himself as an actor. Just like the human Shin Ji-won put down his violin and grabbed a megaphone.
However, that didn’t mean the lingering feelings were gone. Wouldn’t your skills have improved if you continued to play sometimes? There are regrets too.
It was because he only had a violin for more than half of his life, so it seemed that this path would be the only way.
The same goes for Kang Ha-joon. He brought out a common ground with Jeong Yi-hyeon and made him burst into resentment that he hadn’t been able to pour out before.
“Hajun-ssi needed directing, and Jay-san, I don’t know…”
However, he did not give any advice to Yoon Jae.
In the eyes of the director, Jey Yoon was a complete actor who did not need directing. It was because he had already digested the Yoo Tae-hyeok he thought of without difficulty.
“I’m curious about what that person’s interpretation of ‘me’ is like, so let’s take a picture.”
Yoo Tae-hyeok is a character that contains Shin Ji-won’s personal feelings. The director knows all too well how Tae-Hyeok Yoo feels.
Then, what would the me, Yoo Tae-hyeok, as interpreted and expressed by an actor named Yoon Jae look like? that got me curious
‘This scene shows Yoo Tae-hyeok’s mental growth after breaking away from his inferiority complex.’
In the case of the director, it was Shin Joo-won, a younger brother who was better than himself. Yoo Tae-hyeok was Jeong Yi-hyeon.
The director did not bother to inform Yoon Jae of this interpretation.
“hmm······.”
Yoonjay closed and opened his eyes, staring at the violin.
It started with a small question.
‘Why did Yoo Tae-hyeok hide the family discord and pretend to be fine?’
I don’t know In-soo Oh, but if it was Min Joon-young, wouldn’t I have been able to tell him? He’s an alumnus and someone you could call a best friend.
‘Because I have to be perfect.’
It was because of Yoo Tae-hyeok’s obsession with perfection. Yoo Tae-hyeok, who was called a prodigy since childhood, where did that pride go?
Moreover, Yoo Tae-hyeok’s background was not simple. A father who lost his will to live after putting all his hopes on his genius son, and a mother who collapsed in shock at the incident.
I had to pretend that I was okay with this to my mother, who felt guilty for not being able to support her son’s dream due to difficult financial circumstances while her mind was going back and forth.
“ah······.”
that’s similar to me Because I had to hide the aftermath of the dispatch from my worried family.
Yoonjae sighed lightly. It was like a signal.
‘Is it now?’
‘Don’t break your immersion, slowly…’
The staff moved cautiously.
In fact, the director did not give an autograph and instructed the cinematographer to take a picture of Yoon-Ji quietly.
Accordingly, the staff quietly captured and admired him. The actor himself was immersed in it and forgot to wait for the director’s autograph.
‘In the end, the attitude towards life is important.’
Kang Ha-joon needed a director’s direction, but the director thought he wouldn’t need Yoon-jae.
However, Jay Yoon has already been directed. From the fact that I had in mind the scene where I actually broke the violin.
[Wait a minute, please move the props a little more.]
[Where did the violin go? I need it for the scene now.]
Moreover, whenever Taehyeok Yoo compares himself to Yihyeon Jung and conflicts musically, a dark green violin case is always caught in the corner of the screen.
For Yoo Tae-hyeok, the violin was both an honor and a regret in the past. The violin case is dusty, but the violins inside are always in good condition.
Contrary to this, the bass he broke while playing in a band went back and forth to the instrument store and repeatedly repaired it.
He’s still in a band, not playing classical music. It was his contradictory behavior, implied by his handling of musical instruments.
‘I must have stayed in the past.’
Now is the time to find my place. I had to let go of the lingering attachments of the past and head towards the future. What he will grab is not the violin’s bow. It was the bass strings and the microphone.
Yoo Tae-hyeok stared at the violin meaningfully.
The lighting also changed accordingly. It becomes dawn in the dark night. The dark space gradually became colorful.
Yoo Tae-hyeok’s expression also gradually relaxes from something that seemed stuffy and uncomfortable.
It was then. A strange thing happened to the violin standing upright against the wall. The reel house tilted sideways and fell to the floor.
‘uh?’
‘what.’
‘Wow, why at this moment?’
This was not intentional by the director or the staff, but by chance. It seemed as if he had collapsed according to Yoo Tae-hyeok’s change of heart.
“Whoa…”
Even in an unexpected situation, the actor’s immersion was not broken. Rather, he let out a comfortable breath.
He got out of bed and sat down in front of the violin. This was not an action directed by the director.
He ran his fingertips across the body of the violin. And he spat out softly.
“······okay.”
I felt the overflowing emotions of a human being who resolved the inner conflict.
“Cut!”
“and······.”
Applause broke out belatedly among the staff who held their breath even after the director heard the sign.
“saw? It collapses like that…”
Choi Su-jin couldn’t finish her words. And he pretended not to know Shin Ji-won was stealing his eyes. This was the director’s farewell ceremony.
“Look at the monitor again.”
“Wow, how could the violin fall sideways at just that moment?”
“Did some ghost touch you?”
Even though the filming was over, Yunjae stayed still on the spot.
For him, the violin was Yoon Je-hee from ＜Children＞. And Yoo Tae-hyeok is ready to spend his past as a violinist.
If so, what attitude should I show? I thought of the past as homework to solve.
“Brother, great.”
Jeong Yi-hyeon, who was a perfect genius in Yoo Tae-hyeok’s eyes, was also a weak human being who couldn’t escape from his family.
No one is perfect.
“Surely the violin is tilting at that moment… isn’t it a sign that the movie is going to do well?”
And no one is perfect.
Yoonjae stared at Han Jin-woo, who raised his thumb and handed me water, saying he had worked hard.
“What do you have to say to me?”
“no.”
Not now .
