Chapter 52

    Chapter 52

    After finishing the shooting at Central Park, it was time to shoot at the indoor set.

    With Director Ryans permission, Seo-jun and his dad stepped into the completed set. Jonathan was in charge of guiding them.

    Seo-jun and Lee Min-joon, who saw the movie set for the first time, were amazed.

    It was perfect, as if they had taken a corner of a real exhibition hall. On the wall, there were photos and captions of people. In the glass display case in the center, there were things that people had left behind.

    It looks like a real exhibition hall. Jonathan hyung.

    The art team worked hard to make it. I helped a little bit too.

    Jonathan said with a shy smile. Seo-jun, who was walking along the arrow marked on the floor, read the caption written in Korean among the various languages.

    An abnormal wormhole occurred all over the world due to the alien invasion. The photo is of Ray Kasman, a high school student who went missing at that time. Do they write all this?

    People these days take pictures of every cut and analyze the background. We entrusted all this to the translators. If we write something irrelevant, it would cause a fuss.

    Wow.

    There were many stories behind the photos here. Writers, you are amazing. Seo-jun and Lee Min-joon looked around the set slowly.

    Jonathan followed the two quietly. On the wall, there were photos of people who had disappeared into the strange wormhole, smiling brightly. They were photos that they had received from their families, from old ones to recent ones, full of memories.

    As they looked at each one, one photo caught their eyes.

    My photo!

    Its William!

    It was the photo that Director Ryan Will had asked Seo-eun-hye to send. There was Seo-jun, four years old, smiling brightly. Lee Min-joons eyes blurred as he saw the photo.

    Seeing his sons photo here, he felt uneasy. The memorial hall was so well made that it hurt his heart.

    You were so young!

    Pfft. Youre still young.

    Hehe.

    But soon, Seo-juns words turned into laughter.

    Seo-jun looked at the caption next to Williams photo. Along with the ordinary caption, there was a letter from Williams parents to William.

    Seo-jun and Lee Min-joon read the letter slowly. It was a letter from the parents who wished for their childs happiness.

    Originally, the scenario writer wrote a letter, but after seeing Melissas acting in Shadowman 1, he rewrote it. He said this was better than the previous letter, and the director liked it too.

    Jonathan explained. Seo-jun and Lee Min-joon nodded. They didnt know what the previous letter was, but this letter was enough to make their hearts ache.

    ***

    Lets start shooting!

    The assistant director shouted. The extras who played the roles of the relatives of the victims who came to the memorial hall found their places.

    Seo-jun, who was talking with Evan, also got up from his seat. His clothes and shoes were the same as at Central Park.

    Evan Block and Seo-jun stood at the entrance of the memorial hall.

    Director Ryan Will, who was looking at the monitor, yelled. Several cameras pointed at the two.

    The extras recited their lines and the staff held their breath.

    -Ready,

    Seo-jun tapped the floor lightly twice with his foot.

    [(Line)The elegant footsteps of the cat baron are activated.]

    -Action!

    Mac and the child entered an exhibition hall inside Central Park.

    Unlike the lively rest of Central Park, this place was very quiet and filled with silence.

    Some people had grim faces, some looked like they would burst into tears any moment, as they looked at the photos on the wall.

    Mac lowered his voice in solemnity.

    This is a memorial hall. It was built to commemorate the people who disappeared into the strange wormholes a year ago, the missing people, and the dead people.

    Strange wormholes?

    Youre too young to remember. A year ago, around this time, aliens invaded Earth.

    [(Evil) The Lonely Flowers Gloomy Scent-Lowest Grade]

    Only this flower blooms within a radius of 10m.

    It looks like a weed, and no one knows that its a flower.

    You feel depressed when you smell the flowers scent.

    A cold energy burst out of Seo-juns body.

    Seo-jun had done many experiments after opening the door of the evil library.

    He also learned that he could use both good and evil skills at the same time when he had enough mana in his body.

    He also learned that he could decide which ability he wanted to show more with the breathing method.

    [(Good) The Cat Barons Elegant Steps] and [(Evil) The Lonely Flowers Gloomy Scent] were activated together.

    With the synergy of [Mines Basic Breathing], a cold magic flowed out of Seo-juns body.

    The child who had looked like an angel changed in an instant. It was different from when he had changed normally in Central Park. A chill that made his whole body shiver. Coldness.

    At that momentary change, Mac, no, Evan Blocks expression changed weirdly without him knowing. The script clearly stated that he didnt notice the childs condition, so,

    -Cut! NG!

    The filming stopped, of course.

    At the same time, the staff and the extras who had been watching quietly without blinking exclaimed. They also noticed the change in Seo-juns atmosphere.

    Wow. Thats

    I heard he was a genius, but hes beyond imagination.

    They whispered to each other, but the crowd of more than ten soon turned into noise.

    The camera director and the assistant director were too busy admiring to do anything, so in the end, Ryan Will, the director, shouted.

    Everyone, quiet! Well start filming again. And Evan Block!

    Ah, Im sorry!

    Evan Block, who couldnt take his eyes off Seo-jun, who had returned to normal, came to his senses at the directors call.

    The more he knew, the more he realized that his talent was endless. He was a child, no, an actor who showed more skills than he expected. He looked forward to the future of this actor.

    Maybe it wont end in one book.

    None of the great actors had ever gone beyond one book. Evan Block smiled and prepared for the shooting.

    Its my first NG.

    Seo-jun felt curious. It wasnt a shooting for a bust shot or a close-up shot. It wasnt his mistake either, but it was his first NG.

    Maybe, its because of the magic?

    Even when they returned to their seats, they couldnt take their eyes off Seo-jun and kept admiring him. Somehow,

    It feels good!

    Their expressions clearly showed the effect of the magic he had obtained with difficulty.

    Will the people who watch the movie make the same expressions?

    He imagined the faces of the people who would be stunned by his changed appearance and smiled.

    Good. Lets try harder! Seo-jun put his spirit into the shooting.

    NG! Jun! You put too much power into it! Then Mack will notice it! You have to show it a little bit!

    Im sorry!

    The staff and the actors were surprised again by Seo-juns colder atmosphere than before, but Ryan, the director, evaluated it coldly.

    His first NG in his life was due to excessive enthusiasm.

    Seo-jun pouted his lips and went for a re-shooting. He couldnt touch his set hair, so Evan Block tapped Seo-juns shoulder and cheered him up. Fortunately, he got an OK and went for a close-up shot.

    The more he knew, the more he realized that his talent was endless. He was a child, no, an actor who showed more skills than he expected. He looked forward to the future of this actor.

    Maybe it wont end in one book.

    He thought to himself as he smiled. None of the great actors had ever gone beyond one book. But this one was different.

    He had something special, something that made him shine on the screen.

    Evan Block adjusted his camera and prepared for the shooting.

    He couldnt wait to see what this actor would do next.
