Chapter 67 – Extra Shooting Ⅰ②
^-^
I changed into my hanbok and went outside.
Perhaps because it was an improved hanbok, it didn’t take that long, so I was able to quickly change into it and leave.
I thought Hanbok would be uncomfortable in many ways, including when moving around, but now that I think about it, there wasn’t anything particularly uncomfortable.
Is this the power of improved hanbok?
Anyway, when I came out, I saw several people in the distance who seemed to be extras like me.
Since we were all wearing the same hanbok, I felt like our inner intimacy was gradually increasing.
Because there are people all dressed up in hanbok, it feels like you’ve fallen into a real historical drama.
At that time, the director, seeing that I had changed my clothes, smiled brightly and approached me to talk to me.
“Oh, as expected! You look good on me.”
“Ahaha… Thank you.”
“But, um… I’m not sure if it suits this acting. You look so innocent.”
“···Yes?”
Acting rather than innocence? What does this mean?
“As you know, Seohyun, this acting is quite difficult.”
“······Yes?”
No, no, no. As you know, this is it. What does this mean?
I’ve never heard anything, is it acting? It’s also quite difficult?
“Haha! Just wait~?”
As I stood there in a daze, having never seen anything for the first time, the manager came up to me and grabbed me.
I looked at the manager like that.
With a look in his eyes that demanded an explanation of what the director meant.
“Ahaha… That’s…”
In the end, the manager revealed everything, and I couldn’t help but be shocked.
“No, so… It’s a role that was originally meant to be given to our sister, so there are lines, and she’s even filming it alone… And that’s a difficult act…?”
“So… That’s how it happened…? Haha…”
After receiving confirmation from the manager, I looked at my sister with resentful eyes.
“They say it’s extra… They say it’s extra…!!”
“So?”
“Really? Really? Are you kidding me?!”
I shouted as I saw my older sister smiling mischievously despite this situation.
How did my pretty and kind sister become like this…
When I was in despair, the manager added something.
“For your information… That role was originally meant to be given to Seoyoung, so CEO Hana Jeong tricked her into saying she was an extra…”
“······.”
Ah. So… Originally I was an extra to my sister, no, I’m not an extra anymore.
To give me this role, I even lied and said I was an extra, but it was passed on to me, so you’re saying that now?
So, is this a situation where I have to play that role now? The role that the director says is quite difficult to play?
“Ha, haha. Haha…”
Beyond the shock and embarrassment, I started laughing, almost like I was liberated.
It was clear that the older sister understood CEO Jeong Ha-na’s intention in telling her that she was an extra.
Otherwise, how could you pass this on to me?
Do you have any ill feelings towards me?
What on earth did I do wrong…?!
“My little brother. I’m sure you can do well. Fighting!”
The older sister’s face was full of mischief as she said that.
No, you’re going to let me play such an important role and just watch in peace?
“I, I don’t do it. No, I can’t…!!”
“Seo, Seohyun… If you don’t do this, I will die…”
“Are you planning to kill our manager?”
“······.”
As soon as I said I couldn’t do it, as if they were waiting, the two of them started piling into my ears reasons why I shouldn’t do it.
No, why on earth are you doing this to me?
Even when they handed it over to me as just an extra, I said I knew without saying anything, but this is a scam!!
I was about to open my mouth to express my refusal once again, but when I saw the two people’s faces, my heart began to weaken.
In the end, I sighed and nodded.
“······Oh, yes… I lost.”
“···!, Seohyun, Seohyun saved my life!”
As I looked at the manager clinging to my arm, I felt like something had happened to me, but there was nothing I could do at this point.
Even though I already knew I had to act, I said I would, and I didn’t know what kind of criticism I would get if I said I wouldn’t do it again, so I had no choice but to do it.
The acting that the director talks about is quite difficult.
“As expected, my younger brother.”
My sister gave a weak round of applause, saying she had chosen well.
To my older sister’s words, I responded indifferently and asked.
“Okay, so. What kind of acting is this?”
What kind of acting is this? Even the director says it’s quite difficult acting?
The manager naturally handed me a book made of some kind of paper as if he knew what I said.
“Haha, here is the part that Seohyun will play.”
“······It’s so natural.”
“It’s my mood. It’s my mood.”
I don’t think it was because of my mood… Anyway, when I opened the document the manager handed over to me, it was full of lines, and it seemed like it was a script.
I started reading the script I was holding.
Because I have to know what kind of acting I have to do.
“Hmm… I have to act like this…?”
“Right?”
“Hmm…”
As soon as I read the script, it was so fun that I was immediately immersed in it and read it all.
Who played what role, and what role did I play?
Should I say that the role I took on was somehow… Not suitable for me. Rather, it was a role that was completely opposite to my appearance.
“Obviously, I’m not sure if Seohyun suits you.”
So much so that my sister said this.
The role I played was simple yet difficult.
If I were to really ask, should I say that the role is to assassinate the male protagonist, the crown prince?
A typical assassin who disguises herself as a court lady and secretly breaks into where the crown prince is staying and poisons his car.
‘Assassination… Assassin…?’
Assassin big?
While I was thinking about the role I would play, I heard the director laughing.
“Our main character! I live because of our Jinseong!”
“Haha. That’s because of me. It’s because the director filmed it well.”
Haha!”
Seeing that he was called the main character, it seemed like he was the crown prince of this drama.
The conversation between the two was a typical conversation between a director and an actor.
The director praises the actor, and the actor praises the director.
I was looking at the actor blankly, and I ended up making eye contact with the actor who was talking to the director, probably because he felt my gaze.
Our eyes met in the air, and the main character and I both stared at each other without breaking eye contact.
‘What, you want to try it?’
I don’t avoid a fight even if I lose.
When I started glaring at the main actor, the actor suddenly started walking towards me.
‘Well, what is it? Are you coming to hit me for looking at me?
By the time I thought about that, the actor had already arrived in front of me.
Even though he only took a few steps, he was already standing in front of me.
I didn’t realize it when I saw it from a distance, but this actor… Is quite tall. Even handsome…
As a man, my pride is quite hurt… Oh, I’m a woman now.
But what can I do! He was originally a man!
For a moment, I felt aggrieved and glared at the actor who approached me.
Then the actor slowly opened his mouth as if he didn’t really care.
“Is this the person the CEO was talking about?”
It wasn’t said to me, it was said to the manager next to me.
The manager, who was looking at us with anxious eyes wondering if we were going to fight, quickly answered when the main actor asked.
“Ah, yes, yes. The CEO himself chose this person.”
It feels like they are somehow emphasizing the word choice…
“Hoo.”
Then the main actor started looking at me with interest.
Then he rested his chin and opened his mouth as if wondering.
“I’m not sure if this little girl will play that role.”
“······Koh, little girl…?”
I was momentarily embarrassed and stuttered.
Being called a kid was something I heard from my friends even when I was a guy, so it didn’t really hit me, and I was able to ignore people saying I wasn’t sure if I would be good at playing the role.
But this is the first time in my life I’ve ever heard of a girl who goes behind a kid.
Of course, I am a short woman now… But I couldn’t ignore that after hearing that.
“I-I’m not a little girl…!!”
“Haha, yes, that’s right.”
“······.”
Haha, he said in a secretly angry tone.
It would be better to just ignore him outright. The type that scratches his insides like this was a difficult type to deal with.
“I’ll just leave. I’ll see you later, little girl.”
“······.”
As she said that, she shook her hand and turned around and walked away, but then she suddenly stopped, turned around, looked at me, and opened her mouth.
“Ah. My little lady, don’t be too nervous when filming and let’s do our best. I’ll do a good job.”
“······.”
And then he started walking again where he had stopped.
I looked at the actor until he was out of sight. I wanted to relieve this irritating feeling rising from within, but I felt like I was going crazy and running around alone in the eyes of others, so I quit.
Instead, I looked for ways to relieve this irritation in other ways.
That’s what I was vowing to get revenge on that bastard while filming.
“Sister.”
“Uh, huh?”
“Tell me about acting.”
I controlled my bubbling heart and asked my sister to teach me how to act.
Originally, I had no intention of doing it properly, but after talking with that actor, I suddenly felt the urge to do it properly.
This is what happened, I will cover your acting with my own.
With the acting you are so confident in.
“Let’s see who wins.”
That’s how I became sincere during this shoot.
