Chapter 435 – Crank in (8)
Eating delicious food will make you feel good.
In the meantime, Seo Ju-hwan’s cooking skills have improved, and the two women who have suffered from him for a long time are very hungry. Serving a delicious dinner here made my sharp heart a little rounder.
Yum Yum. It’s chewy. Slurp.
The atmosphere in which each other noticed each other collapsed in front of hunger.
Lee Chae-hee thought while sipping hot soup.
‘It’s my loss if I get more angry.’
So, she decided to move on. It was very embarrassing for her to eat rice cake with another woman at someone else’s house, but there was nothing good for her if she pushed Seo Joo-hwan further here.
Half a day left until the promised midnight.
If you’re not going to pick up your words, it’s right to compromise in moderation. In the first place, she did not want to greatly aggravate the problem with her best friend Min Seon-ha.
A more important problem arose immediately.
Min Seon-ha’s remarks to her, which she carefully brought up at her dinner table, were a problem.
“Joo-hwan wants to increase the proportion of him?”
“Yes. Actually, that’s what I came for. I want to ask you two for some advice.”
“How do you know he’s at my house?”
“I didn’t know Joo-hwan existed. Chaehee, I came to meet you. I thought I was sleeping, so I came to wake you up.”
Then this division was born.
Lee Chae-hee let out a small sigh and muttered.
“Should I change my password?”
“… Sorry for coming in.”
“Done. I went in and out of your house as I pleased, but what?”
In the first place, the two share a password. Since it was a long-standing relationship and they were drinking buddies who lived close by, there were no barriers between them.
Lee Chae-hee returned to the main topic.
“Anyway, how are you going to fix it? Judging from what you’re saying, you’re not trying to revise a line or two of your lines, are you?”
“Yes. I think I need to get my hands on the whole storyline. I’m going to increase Joo-hwan’s proportion a little and lead it to the middle and latter half. I think you and Joo-hwan would be very good together .”
“Then should I also revise the scripts for the other actors besides me and him? Have you decided on the correct direction? You don’t mean to think about it from now on, do you?”
“Actually, I’m almost done. I’ll send you both by phone. Would you like to see it now?”
Lee Chae-hee put down her spoon and looked at the newly revised script. Quite a long piece. It is also not a problem that can be easily discussed.
‘It’s fun, but…….’
Looking at the screenplay, she understands why Min Seon-ha says she will revise it. In her changed script, the weight of her and Seo Joo-hwan increased, and the confrontational composition appeared more often. The confrontation between the bold heroine and the pleasure killer will give viewers a sense of tension and increase their sense of immersion. With Min Seon-ha’s directing skills, she will be able to pull out more impactful scenes than before the revision.
But something is awkward
Lee Chae-hee has a good eye for her work her. However, since she is a stranger to writing itself, it was difficult for her to express this unpleasant feeling in words on the spot. She definitely has a snag, but she couldn’t pinpoint it.
Instead, it was Seo Joo-hwan who spoke her words of her.
“Are you going to fix it like this? Really?”
Seo Joo-hwan’s expression when he said that was a frown I’d never seen before. He seemed to be taken aback, and he seemed to be dissatisfied with the way he sighed.
For a moment, Lee Chae-hee felt uneasy and hurriedly opened her mouth.
“Joo Hwan-ah, sleep…….”
However, Seo Ju-hwan spoke first.
“Seonha noona, I don’t think this is the case. It’s less fun than before the fix. The story got messy.”
Lee Chae-hee touched her forehead with a frustrated face.
Sure enough, Min Seon-ha’s face hardened.
‘Ruined.’
Min-seon is usually meek, but there is a stubborn side to her work. It is the pride formed for a small, gentle-looking female director to survive in a rough film world. Even if she asked for her advice her first, she had to be careful with her words her, but Seo Joo-hwan bumped into her directly without turning back.
Min Seon-ha forcibly lifted her trembling lips and smiled. Her pride her was hurt, but she needed to calm down anyway, since it was she who asked her advice her first.
“Why do you think so?”
“Remember when I said I’ve seen all of my sister’s works her? The flow of this edited version is similar to that of my older sister’s previous works…….”
As Seo Joo-hwan continued to speak, Min Seon-ha’s face grew red.
Lee Chae-hee hurriedly stopped Seo Joo-hwan.
“Hey, what are you doing? It’s crazy? Why are you talking so suddenly?”
Why is a guy who is usually unlucky enough to be sly and good at drawing lines like this? It was tantamount to provocation to mention nothing else but ruined previous works.
Seo Joo-hwan stopped talking and met Lee Chae-hee’s gaze for a moment. He looked at her through her mischievous eyes and shook her head. It means don’t interfere.
Lee Chae-hee understood the meaning of her and quietly shut her mouth. It was hard for her to dare to intervene in the unusual serious look. A strange charisma dominated the space.
Seo Joo-hwan turned his head toward Min Seon-ha again.
“Sister, you said you came here to ask for advice, right?”
“… Okay.”
“Then I want you to listen to me seriously. What do I gain by offending you? I just say what I see and feel as an actor who participates in the work and as a writer who writes. It is up to noona to come to a conclusion.”
Seo Joo-hwan looked much more serious than usual. He’s a completely different person from the guy who just smirked at sex appeal.
In response, Min Seon-ha also corrected his new color. Even to her, Seo Joo-hwan wasn’t trying to provoke him.
Seo Ju-hwan opened his mouth in earnest.
“I’ll tell you in advance, I don’t know much about directing. So, of course, Seonha noona knows better about the screenplay.”
Not all writing is the same.
Pure literature, movies, dramas, web novels, etc.
In each field, the breath of writing is different, and the areas to pay attention to are also different. Web novels are free of time and space background. However, in the case of movies and dramas set in modern times, reality must be considered. Also, if you need to use CG, you have to consider the cost you can invest in it, and you have to think about how to implement it when writing is expressed as a video. The details are different when it comes to writing.
“But I write better than my older sister. I am sure of this.”
I don’t think I have anything to advise about directing, but if you look at the completeness of the writing, even if the field is different, he has plenty of advice.
Seo Ju-hwan said with a serious look.
“I think Kim Jung-min, who plays the murderer, is a character that has already been completed. There is nothing to add or subtract. However, as I forcibly increased the amount, the character became ambiguous. The character who gives tension to the audience and leads them to quickly immerse themselves in the first half goes beyond the middle to the middle and the second half? Then the killer and the stalker will appear together, but the focus is shaken because there are two main villains.”
“That… That’s the part I was worried about too. However, it is also a part that can be covered with acting and directing. If the acting skills of the actors are supported, it will be a very impactful scene.”
“Instead, other characters die little by little.”
“I can cover that with directing. If you see this in writing, it will feel different if you see it in a video. It was written with the video in mind.”
“It will be different when you see it on video. Having said that, I have nothing to say as I am new to directing. By the way, director, what would be better, making good writing with good direction, or covering holes with good direction?”
“That…”
For a moment, Min-seon was speechless. After thinking for a while, she said as if making excuses.
“… Unlike a novel that only has text, a film must combine script, acting, and directing. There are many cases where a story that seems a little lacking shines more when it is made into a video. I think the revised screenplay is like that as well.”
Min Seon-ha’s words are not wrong. It is an important part not only in movies but also in secondary creation content.
For example, there is web novel A, which was a huge hit, and web novel B, which was moderately popular. However, webtoonization offers may come more to the less popular B novels. The reason is that B novels are more suitable for webtoonization.
Like this, regardless of writing well or not, there is a separate composition suitable for each field. This is exactly what Seonha Min said.
Seo Joo-hwan fully considered her position in her. But her thoughts she have n’t changed. The screenplay Min Seon-ha has now revised is too much.
‘My older sister seems to have a hard time accepting it, but.’
She tried to listen calmly, but she still couldn’t let go of her pride in her. As her excuse her for him, she was citing the differences between normal novels and movies.
However, no matter how different the field is, the storytelling ability between him and Min Seon-ha is the difference between heaven and earth. Discussing differences is something you do when a certain level is right. His eyes his saw every bad part of the revised script.
The question is, can Min Seon-ha fully accept this just because he tells me one by one?
Seo Joo-hwan looked at Min Seon-ha’s status window with narrow eyes. Delusions (A/A+). She seemed to know why her talent was a delusion and not an imagination. At the same time, I can guess why she has been going back and forth between Daebak and Jjokbak.
‘This older sister is the type that should n’t have room in her heart her.’
After seeing the revised screenplay, I was convinced. It was clear that the idea that came to mind was hit hard. At least it was modified considering the schedule, so it stopped like this, but if there was enough time, a more strange script would have come out.
Sometimes there are people like this. Others are in a hurry to fill the empty space, but rather fail because they can’t relieve overflowing ideas. So, if you can afford it, add all kinds of ideas, add more, and ruin them. Conversely, if you don’t have enough space, you can use only minimal ideas and produce good results.
‘How can I convince them?’
Seo Ju-hwan, who had been thinking for a while, clapped and clapped.
At that, Lee Chae-hee and Min Seon-ha trembled. This is because Seo Joo-hwan, who was silently worried, was unusual. It was the effect of the ‘charisma’ talent he had recently acquired.
Seo Joo-hwan said.
“We’ll talk about the details later. There is not much time left.”
“Hour?”
“… No more talk? It’s important, but wouldn’t it be better to do this first?”
Min Seon-ha tilted her head, and Lee Chae-hee, who noticed Seo Ju-hwan’s words of her, secretly urged her story of her. She liked taking the best time for her.
Seo Joo-hwan snorted with a look on his face asking, “Where is the repair work?”
The current time is 7 o’clock. Five hours left until midnight.
I plan to enjoy it to the fullest with the two of them. It was also intended to take out Min Seon-ha’s soul and manipulate it.
“Come on, let’s go. To have sex.”
Let’s start with rice cakes.
