Chapter 530 – #79. Director Yeon Hwa-Jeong’s Casting (2)
“I think you found the right person.”
Haha!!”
Director Yeon Hwa-jeong burst into laughter at my answer.
It is a country that considers humility a virtue, but I thought that people would prefer to express confidence rather than humility now, and that prediction came true.
“From the start, it felt really good. Oh, I don’t know if I said it first, but it’s Instructor Hong Joo-eun who will help us today. He is the one who will teach Haesol what stunts are and see the possibilities. In addition, he is the one who will be in charge of our movie action director.”
“Ah! You were the action director. I didn’t know. I look forward to.”
“You are going through a lot today. I hope you don’t resent me too much. You shouldn’t think that it will be similar to the exercises you used to do for body care.”
“I came with a strong determination, so please don’t worry and teach me. I won’t sound weak.”
So far, neither of them seemed to believe it.
But it’s only a matter of time before that mindset changes.
Considering my physical abilities, those two should be worried that their jaws won’t fall out today.
“You seem to have done all the stretching, so shall we begin in earnest?”
“Yes!”
“The roaring answer is very good. Before we begin, Haesol, do you know anything about stunts?”
Stunt.
Unusual and demanding physical feats or actions that require special skills and are performed for artistic purposes in television, theatre, or film.
Without them, it would be impossible to film a movie, and the actors were grateful beings who practiced on their behalf so that their bodies would not get hurt.
“You’re right. You know exactly. Even those of us who are pros often get hurt in the action. The only way to prevent injury is practice and trust in each other.”
You have to keep a good distance from each other, and you have to match the speed so that it doesn’t jump too much.
The moment someone twists an agreement, injuries happen and all plans go awry.
“We have to keep practicing until we have a firm trust with the other person. A moment of hesitation leads to a major accident. We always keep that in mind. Before we try it out, let’s first show you what a sum is. Everyone, come here.”
“”Yeep!!””
Director Yeon Hwa-jeong was also watching, so the stunts with strong discipline quickly gathered.
According to Master Hong’s signal, the stunts started a flashy and tense action.
People fell out and rolled on the floor as if this place was in a movie.
“And!”
At first, it was so amazing that he didn’t get hurt even though he was falling out so splendidly.
“I think my back hurts…”
“I don’t get sick by using the falling method.”
Although I had acted a few times, it was my first time seeing a stunt action because I had no chance to experience action.
Stunts in which a person is knocked out with a single blow were familiar to him in the movies.
Rather than being heavy, it was a combination of extreme, flashy, and agile action.
“How are you?”
“It is fast and agile. I think the people who get hit and fly away are very important rather than the people who swing their fists.”
“Good to see you. Fist swings also require good speed, but nothing is as important as falling. Have you ever learned how to fall?”
“There are, but seeing people who use falling techniques properly like that, I’m not sure if I learned it properly.”
“Then, shall we check the falling method again?”
“Yes.”
It is very important to fall when doing action.
First, it shows the proper posture of the fall.
Thud! I heard a voice, but the person who showed me the demonstration jumped up like a tumbler as if he was not sick at all.
No matter how much the matrix was laid on the floor, it was great to be able to fall so boldly.
Can’t you show that you can’t even start with a fall, which can be seen as the basis of action?
I came here to be cast as the main character in an action movie.
Thud!
“Oh, you are doing very well?”
“Did you do okay? I once learned…”
“Very well done. There is no need for me to teach you any more.”
Director Yeon Hwa-jeong was also happy to see me receiving compliments.
I had no intention of surprising the director this much yet.
There will be many more surprises in the future.
♧ ♧ ♧
When did the atmosphere in the gym start to change?
Even the instructors who scolded them harshly for coming to stare at celebrities could no longer scold the trainees for looking at one side.
It was hard for even them to take their eyes off what they were looking at.
It was the first time I had seen such an overwhelming performance in over 10 years of doing stunts.
“You do that so easily?”
“Is that going to happen?”
“You seem to be doing better than Hyeonju? Didn’t he say today was the first time?”
“You saw Master Hong teach you how to fall.”
Whiik~!
Such a beginner moves his body like a flying squirrel.
It climbs up by relying on a single rope with both arms, or jumps and clings to an iron bar to move in an instant.
All of them had experience working out with those machines, so they knew it wasn’t easy.
“Isn’t this a complete dojo break?”
“The strength is good, but the speed is no joke.”
“Can you do that?”
“I can do it, but at that speed it’s impossible.”
Various facilities installed in the gym were literally being destroyed by that one man.
At first there was denial, then admiration, then briefly jealousy, and at some point it was completely overwhelmed.
“Crazy. A man can do that?”
“Originally, men are superior to women in terms of physical abilities. Don’t you know that men were soldiers in the past?”
“Those noble men were soldiers?!”
“Did you doze off during history class too? Originally, men have better physical abilities than women. The reason why men are weak right now is because they are so precious.”
“Women have to do the hard work. How precious is each man. Anyway, isn’t that a bit strange? Even if you do well, you do too well. I don’t think it’s human level.”
What about Master? Does this work? So what about this? Does this work too? So what about this? Are you good at this too? He continued to step up.
And the man was doing what the master asked him to do, casually.
How can a person be so fast and strong?
All the women gathered here had a romance for a strong body, and I couldn’t help but be thrilled by the appearance of a man who showed that romance intact as a reality.
“That, stop!!”
That is, until someone appeared out of nowhere to block the enchanting scene.
“Let’s do it here.”
“Yes? No, director. Haesol still has a lot to do!”
“It’s not possible. If you overdo it and get hurt, you’ll be in big trouble. Please stop, Master.”
Director Yeon Hwa-jeong, who was staring at him in shock, hurriedly stopped the master.
The instructor, who fell in love with the man’s unusual body movements, couldn’t help but regret that there were many things he hadn’t tried yet.
In addition, the people who were watching the surroundings also exclaimed with regret.
“Oh~!”
“I’m sorry.”
“If you do that, it’s really great.”
“If I told you to do a stunt, would you never do it?”
“A man does this because he regrets something. Look at the face It shines.”
There were a lot of people around her who regretted it, but director Yeon Hwa-jeong had no intention of making the man do tough exercises anymore.
A situation where male stunts did almost everything.
It would be a big deal if the main character who would do the action got hurt during practice.
“Did I pass?”
Jin Hae-sol, a man who showed splendid movements, asked director Yeon Hwa-jeong.
Breathing became rough due to the tremendous performance shown in a short period of time.
Panting breath melts people’s longing.
Shining visuals as much as the flashy action were elements that made people go crazy.
A movie was already being made in director Yeon Hwa-jeong’s mind.
How beautiful a scene can be drawn when that man is captured on camera.
Director Yeon Hwa-jeong said with the confidence she had felt for a long time.
“It is an absolute pass. Please come out in my movie. Please.”
Only this man can make the movie she wants.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that the screenplay she wrote was born for this man.
‘The main character was decided in the first place. Would I have suffered this far if I had continued to push the intuition I felt at the beginning?’
He was stupid
He recruited the perfect protagonist, but gave up just because he was rejected only once.
It was a mistake he would never have made if he had been the he he used to be.
What does it matter that Jin Hae-sol is an idol?
There is such a perfect protagonist here.
When I first proposed a casting to Jin Hae-sol, I thought he would be good at action because he is an idol, but even if he was rejected, he gave up without regret.
And the reason I wasn’t sad was because he was an idol.
‘I thought there would be a better option.’
Who would have known that the old palace would be a myeong-gwan?
To be honest, I put a lot of thought into casting him again now.
If it wasn’t for an entertainment program he happened to see, he would have been thinking about it even now.
Without recognizing that perfect protagonist!
‘How fortunate I am to find you now. I also need to revise the screenplay. If it’s that guy, he’ll be able to do the script before revision. It’s to the point where I’m more fortunate to have my schedule delayed because of that friend’s schedule.’
Things were falling into place.
“Seeing that the director likes it so much, it’s worth working hard.”
“I don’t think I would ask for anything if I were to shoot with you today. It wasn’t just that I showed confidence. The understanding of the action seemed very high. Were you always interested in sports?”
“Rather than having a hobby in sports, my physical abilities have always been better than others.”
“The sports world will be very sorry for missing Haesol. Haesol’s athletic ability is surpassing that of an athlete.”
Master Hong worked hard to float Jin Hae-sol from the side.
If I hadn’t really thought so, I wouldn’t have poured out such compliments.
In the first place, Master Hong was a person who was stingy with praise.
And Master Hong’s words added confidence to director Yeon Hwa-jeong.
“At this level, you will quickly learn the action and do it well. I was worried when the director said that he would be filming an action-packed movie, but if Jin Hae-sol is the main character, it would be really possible. I don’t think it would be a bad idea to try an action with a higher level of difficulty than now.”
“Then, does Master Hong no, Director Hong agree?”
The person who will be in charge of the action director for this movie is Hong Joo-eun.
The action she creates will splendidly decorate director Yeon Hwa-jeong’s films.
“Sure. Perhaps with a little more practice, action beyond imagination will be possible. I’m already looking forward to what kind of action you will come up with.”
“It’s an action beyond imagination… That’s exciting. Mr. Haesol, whether it’s my schedule or whatever, I’ll make everything convenient for you. Instead, you must make our film. Having seen this, there is no going back. Jin Hae-sol is the only protagonist in this movie.”
“I don’t know what to do. The director is considerate of my schedule, how could I refuse? I also really wanted to work with the director.”
“But before that, I have something to promise you. It is a promise that once we start filming, we will fully focus on the shoot.”
Director Yeon Hwa-jeong believed that the only person who could save this scenario was Jin Hae-sol and decided not to doubt it, so it didn’t matter if his schedule pushed him a lot.
She persevered and persevered even when it took more than three years to make the film.
You can’t stand it for just a few months, so you blow this main character?
It was nonsense.
But she had to be patient and worth waiting for.
Even though she didn’t know much about idols, she knew very well that they were extremely busy.
That’s why director Yeon Hwa-jung had to promise her Jin Hae-sol to put her sincere efforts into her own film.
“You may not be able to act or act. But I don’t see people not being sincere while appearing in my films.”
“Sure. I will make sure that the director will not regret waiting for me.”
And as if her decision wasn’t in vain, Jin Hae-sol answered with her confident voice.
Director Yeon Hwa-jeong said that was enough.
“Great. Then let’s do our best.”
Director Yeon Hwa-jeong reached out to Jin Hae-sol.
He took her hand without hesitation.
Master Hong, who was watching the two of them in harmony, also gave a hearty smile.
At this moment, director Yeon Hwa-jeong’s films were evolving.
