Chapter 84

    Chapter 84

    Today was the day to film the scene where Grand Prince Seongnyeong and Chungnyeong Daegun were playing with bows and arrows.

    Heo Yuseon, the medical officer, was on standby in case the two princes got hurt and needed immediate treatment.

    While waiting for the set to be ready, Park Dohoon and Seo-jun sat on chairs and waited.

    They felt good to be outside after filming only on the set. The weather had warmed up and the sun was pleasantly warm. Seo-jun hummed a tune and rummaged through his bag.

    Hyung. Do you want some of this?

    Seo-jun offered Park Dohoon a snack from his bag. It was chocolate that he had made with his mom and dad. The chocolate was wrapped a bit clumsily. Park Dohoon reached out his hand.

    Thanks.

    Hehe.

    Seo-jun also unwrapped one and put it in his mouth. The sweet chocolate made him feel even better. Park Dohoon smiled too.

    Park Dohoon seemed to have let his guard down a little.

    No, maybe hes more relaxed.

    Seo-jun looked at Park Dohoon with a smile. Usually, he was so focused on the script that he didnt pay attention to anything else. But when he was with him, he had some time to catch his breath.

    He had watched Park Dohoons filming for a while and he thought he was a perfectionist. He wasnt as meticulous as Evan Block, who calculated every eyebrow movement, but he wondered if he would become like that when he got older.

    Theyre similar, but the difference is more important.

    Evan Block was confident. He was confident that his calculated acting was perfect. Even when he checked the monitor after finishing his acting, he looked for a better direction, not thinking that his acting was wrong.

    That might be wrong, but it was different. Seo-jun just nodded along to Evan Blocks explanation.

    But now he thought he understood.

    Park Dohoons brief relaxation was gone. He flipped through the script. His script was filled with various action directions, like Evan Blocks. There were post-its stuck all over and traces of various colored pens.

    Park Dohoon read the script for todays scene nervously.

    Park Dohoon lacked confidence. He couldnt acknowledge his own great acting. Even though everyone said it was okay, he tried hard to find the wrong part. And he fixed it and acted again. The re-filmed scene was good.

    Its the same process and the same result as Evan, but its so different.

    Park Dohoon had a weak faith in his acting. He was different from the self-assured Evan Block. He was always anxious, reading the script, acting, and sighing again. He felt like he was being chased by something.

    Dohoon hyung. Youre good at acting.

    Yeah?

    If it was Ryan, the director, or Swallen, or Evan Block, they might have given him some good advice and feedback.

    No matter how much he thought about it, Seo-jun couldnt think of any advice to give Park Dohoon. His many past lives didnt help much. He had lived too instinctively for such delicate worries.

    Besides, if its advice, Uncle Jongho and Hyung Jiseok must have given him a lot.

    So Seo-jun praised Park Dohoon every time he met him. Praise makes even a whale dance.

    Todays filming was good in this way, good in that way, and he showered him with praise. Park Dohoons anxious face relaxed a bit.

    Hoo, Park Dohoon sighed and opened his mouth.

    Im a child actor, you know.

    I see.

    Unlike Seo-jun, who nodded his head, Lee Jiseok, who had quietly approached to surprise the two actors, was startled and looked at Park Dohoon.

    My face changed a lot from when I was young, so there are quite a few people who dont recognize me. But if you look closely, you can still see it.

    Park Dohoon continued after eating the chocolate that Seo-jun gave him.

    When I was young, I played the role of Jeongwoo, a child actor. It was a historical drama.

    Oh. I know. That. I saw it.

    Back then, there was no child actor like me, or maybe the other actors didnt act well, or maybe the character of Jeongwoo suited me very well. There must have been many reasons, but I did really well. But I didnt do well in the roles I played after that.

    Lee Jiseok joined the conversation.

    Thats just what you think. Dohoon did well. Its hard for a kid with no acting experience to play a character with a completely different image. Considering that, you did very well. The problem is that the movie flopped.

    At first, I felt guilty for not being able to act like that, but as I watched it, my mind relaxed. It felt like a support.

    Support?

    Yes. I realized it now, but back then I didnt listen to anyone. Jong-ho uncles words and Ji-seoks words. They said I was cool and did well, but it didnt seem sincere. I just thought I had to do better, I had to do well.

    Seo-jun listened to Bak Do-hoons words. Bak Do-hoon felt his attitude and continued to talk comfortably.

    But as I kept watching the video, I relied on Seong-nyeong Daegun in the video. He was just smiling, but I felt the atmosphere and unknowingly confided in him. Its amazing, right? I also felt that feeling sometimes when Seo-jun was filming, and it made me feel comfortable.

    Seo-jun also wondered why he felt a sense of responsibility for Bak Do-hoon. Hmm. He thought he knew now. Why he felt a slight sense of responsibility when he saw Do-hoon.

    Its because of the ability.

    It was because of the influence of [(Sun) The Young Lion Kings Dignity]. Ordinary people would feel only the dignity of a prince as Seo-jun intended, but Bak Do-hoon, who had a weak mind, had a greater effect.

    And he must have seen it a lot, not once or twice, since hes a perfectionist.

    Hyung, how often did you watch it?

    Seo-juns acting was so cool. I really wanted to learn from it,

    Bak Do-hoon said the reason first and answered with embarrassment.

    I watched it whenever I had time.

    Wow.

    With one word, Bak Do-hoon became a member of the pack that Seo-jun ruled.

    Bak Do-hoon, a member of the pack, leaned on Seo-jun, and Seo-jun, the king of the pack, had a responsibility to look after him.

    I didnt think [(Sun) The Young Lion Kings Dignity] would have this effect.

    It wasnt even written on the notification window.

    It seemed that coincidence and coincidence met and had an effect. What kind of weak-minded person would watch Seo-juns video whenever he had a chance, and keep listening to Seo-juns praises?

    That was the start.

    A weak-minded person needed someone to rely on. Bak Do-hoon couldnt find such a person. Thats why he pushed himself more.

    Then [(Sun) The Young Lion Kings Dignity] had a big impact on Bak Do-hoon. When something unknown happened, he relied on Seong-nyeong Daeguns dignity that overwhelmed him, like looking for a god.

    Seo-juns praises, which poured out every time he met Bak Do-hoon, also had a great effect. As a childs best compliment is from his parents, there was nothing more powerful than the compliment of the being he relied on.

    Seo-juns praise became rain for Bak Do-hoons dry heart. Thanks to the rain, Bak Do-hoon found some room and his acting improved. With improved acting, Bak Do-hoon was able to find some confidence.

    Now I can hear Jong-ho uncle and Ji-seoks words.

    He was still anxious now. But he saw hope. He thought he knew a little bit what it meant to trust his acting.

    Seo-jun smiled brightly at Bak Do-hoons relaxed face.

    Its good!

    I think so too.

    Seo-jun and Bak Do-hoon, the Young Lion Kings Pack created by the two, would not last long.

    Because, when Bak Do-hoons mental strength became stronger, he would naturally get out of the effect of dignity he felt from Seo-jun.

    I really appreciate it. Seo-jun.

    Bak Do-hoon would never forget the kid who came to his filming site and praised him for weeks. Seo-jun smiled brightly at Bak Do-hoons sincerity.

    [(Sun) The Young Lion Kings Dignity has changed.]

    The roaring lion pattern on the back of his hand sparkled.

    [(Sun) The Young Lion Kings Dignity-Low]

    You became the king of lions at a young age.

    Among the many abilities, only dignity has increased to lead the pack.

    You can create a pack when the conditions are met. (1/1)

    The packs abilities increase.

    Condition: Weak mental strength, more than 30 meetings, more than 10 praises

    Activation: Tap twice with your finge
