Possessed 10 Million Actors-Chapter 46
Chapter 46
What do you mean, you have to be nervous?
As if it was nothing, Min Kyungsoo said, “I’m just kidding. LOL!” “Don’t worry! You can just do what you’ve been doing,” he said.
I kept thinking about what he said at the end.
“What does that mean?”
There were more people in the audition waiting room than before.
Someone was nodding at the paper the manager gave them, and someone was doing facial stretches.
I went to the empty seat in the corner where I was standing before and tried meditation.
I closed my eyes for about 5 minutes. I slowly awoke to the appearance of someone approaching me.
“You are Kang Jinseok, right?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
A woman I had never seen before smiled softly at me. It must have been my first time, but there was something familiar about it.
“My name is Lee Nayeon. Lee Narin’s sister.”
“Oh, yes.”
I remembered that Lee Narin once said that she had a younger sister who was a year older than me.
But I didn’t expect to see you here.
“You definitely look like Lee Narin.”
Perhaps because it seemed to overlap with Lee Narin, I jumped up and greeted her at a 90-degree angle.
“Nice to meet you. I’m Kang Jinseok.”
“Yes. Nice to meet you.”
Lee Nayeon sat next to him and sat cross-legged.
“It’s just like you said. It’s at the right angle.”
“What?”
“It’s nothing. “Are you nervous?”
“Yeah, it’s a bit of a shame. I think they’re all great people.”
Lee Nayeon smiled, opened her eyes like a crescent, and spoke to me.
“I don’t think it’s something that the actor who gets the most attention in this waiting room has to say.”
“–What?”
“Don’t you know when you see it?” Everyone looks at Actor Kang Jinseok from the side. I’m sure they’re all hoping that it won’t interfere with their auditions.
I listened to Lee Nayeon and looked around, but I have no idea.
Lee Nayeon smiled and whispered as if she had read my mind.
“Anyway, I’ll give you good information. Oh, is it information that will confuse your head? What do you think? Do you want to hear it?”
Min Kyungsoo’s words about being nervous were already confusing me.
So I didn’t want to hear it. But I was too curious to let it go.
What kind of information would you intentionally come to me and let me know about?
“Yes, I’d like to hear it.”
“There were four judges at the audition today. Ha Sarang, PD, scriptwriter, acting coach Kwak Jinwook, and outside judges.”
“Yes.”
“Ha Sarang, the producer, or the screenwriter will just do a normal audition. But the acting coach is something else.”
Lee Nayeon looked around and spoke softly with a more serious voice.
“He’s not very fond of new actors. First of all, he’s trying to get rid of Actor Kang Jinseok.”
What do you mean? He doesn’t like new actors. As Lee Na-yeon said: He will start with a deduction even before the audition.
“This is the second one, and the person who is most likely to be a problem is —.”
Lee Nayeon was on the verge of saying something.
All of a sudden, there was a shadow in front of the two of us.
“The two of you. Please keep it down in the waiting room.”
When I looked up, Lee Taesik was standing there.
He was an actor who, in dark noir works, was mainly responsible for the ‘visual’.
His acting skills are outstanding. Most importantly, he is well known.
I was very familiar with him as he was an actor I once had a lot of admiration for.
“I have seen you more often as a supporting actor than as a lead actor in the past. “Are you going to do an audition for this one?”
Lee Taesik bowed slightly, looked at my face, and said.
Low, whispering.
“I heard you say that to Lee Homin a long time ago. You should be ‘quiet’ during the audition.
Is it Lee Homin again?
Come to think of it, Lee Taesik was also an actor from KL.
“Then you have to be quiet as well, no?”
Lee Taesik didn’t even listen to my answer and told Lee Nayeon.
“Lee Nayeon, please be as careful as possible, okay? It’s not even certain yet.
“That’s exactly right. I’m sure it wasn’t something that was told to the actor before the audition.”
Lee Nayeon stared at Lee Taesik and shrugged as if she understood.
“But isn’t it better for you to know if you’re sure about it or not?”
I looked at myself and wondered if Lee Nayeon could say that. Then she thought she had decided. She said with a slight sigh.
“Fine, you’ll figure it out anyway, but I needn’t tell you. It might be more trouble for you in vain.”
Lee Nayeon smiled like a cat and whispered in my ear again.
“I heard about Min Kyungsoo earlier. I heard that you’re auditioning for the role of Oh Manho. “Is that true?”
“Yes.”
Lee Nayeon said with a slight sideways glance at Lee Taesik.
“I have a feeling that Lee Taesik will have the same character.”
I had an idea that it was for some reason. If you are an actor like Lee Taesik, you will be able to play the role of “Faithful Manho”.
“I’ve auditioned for ‘Shin Jiyeon’, playing Oman’s Wife.”
“Really? Oh, yes.”
“So make sure that you win it.”
“What do you mean?”
“Because I want to work with actor Kang Jinseok instead of Lee Taesik.”
“—.”
“Sure, I’ll take my leave!”
When Lee Nayeon left, Lee Taesik, who seemed a little angry for some reason, approached me and said.
“I heard you don’t have many connections because you’re a rookie and don’t have an agency.”
“—.”
“With Nayeon …” No, I think you’re pretty close to Lee Nayeon.
Lee Taesik’s words became shorter as soon as Lee Nayeon left.
He’s older than me, so I can move on.
The look in his eyes was too strong for me to let it go easily.
I stood there without saying anything. Lee Taesik kept asking me.
“What kind of relationship do you have with Nayeon?”
“I had my first meeting with her today in this audition hall.”
“—- You saw her for the first time?”
Maybe he didn’t like the answer I gave him. Or maybe I was just in touch with some counter-intelligence I had no idea about.
Lee Taesik made a big impression.
“There is no way. He brags like that. To me, “— Chet.”
“—?”
“If I see you flirting with Lee Nayeon again, I won’t let you go.”
I think it sounded like he was trying to intimidate me, but it wasn’t a lot of pressure at all.
I don’t know what’s wrong with Lee Taesik anyway.
Then all of a sudden this thought came to me.
” Is Lee Taesik like Lee Nayeon?
I laughed in vain when I had this thought.
“You’re not a 14-year-old kid, and you can’t do that when you are talking to someone that you like.”
However, the next thing that I said was something that I couldn’t just laugh at.
“Hey, Kang Jinseok.”
“?”
“You weren’t a fan of my company in ‘No Flower’. At this audition, I didn’t like the fact that the newcomer had the audacity to cross the lead.
For the time being, I was just a listener.
“And now Lee Nayeon…”
“—.”
“Don’t make fun of the drama. It just happened to be a hit. This floor is not as easy as that. If you’re a beginner, just crawl on your own like a beginner. Don’t be so annoying that you have to push in, okay?”
Lee Taesik poured out everything he wanted to say, so his expression was much softer than before.
Maybe it’s because he’s satisfied that I didn’t say anything because I was scared.
“Lee Taesik.”
“Do you have something to say?”
“Yes, I have a lot of things to say. But I think the other actors are starting to feel uncomfortable. So I’ll tell you briefly so as not to disturb you.”
“—.”
“Are KL Entertainment actors usually this mean?”
“—- What do you mean?”
“If you’re a rookie, stay organized. Don’t be mean.” In my opinion, KL Entertainment’s actors are really into that kind of thing. Lee Homin used to be like that as well.”
“You…now…”
I stood up first before Lee Taesik said anything.
Lee Taesik had looked down at me earlier, but now I was looking down at him.
“But in my opinion, Lee Taesik is a bit better than Lee Homin.”
“—”
“At least he doesn’t make a fuss.”
To compare the two, Lee Taesik shook his lips.
“It’s a mouth with an open baby…”
Then the moment when he looked me in the eye and had the urge to say something.
“Actor Kang Jinseok! Please go to the audition room!”
Before I knew it, it was my turn.
***
Director 5 of KL Entertainment, has been wearing long dark circles under his eyes for the past few days.
I sat on it as if I was lying down. My office chair was tilted back.
Then there was a knock at the door.
“This is Team Manager Nam.”
“Please come on in.”
Team leader Nam, who came into the room, handed a bundle of documents to the head of the 5th office and said.
“This is the profile of the applicant for the new actor’s audition, which was your request. I also emailed it to you. Please check it.”
“Well done.”
“Yes, there has been a decline in the number of applicants. The number of applicants has been on the decline.”
The head of the 5th Division nodded his head. He turned his profile roughly.
“I suppose so. More than that, how’s casting for “The Way They Chose” going?”
“Yes. Lee Taesik in Room 4 just finished auditioning, and I heard it’s Kang Jinseok’s turn to go in. Lee Homin said that it will be his turn after Kang Jinseok.”
“Good.”
“And the audition for the supporting roles will take a long time.”
The head of the 5th division nodded. As if he knew.
With a rather worried voice, team leader Nam said.
“But, sir.”
“Why?”
“Lee Homin and Kang Jinseok are going to play the same role again this time.” Just like the previous role of Nakamura.”
“Yes.”
“Is he going to be okay?”
The head of the 5th division asked with a dry voice.
“I can’t believe that he’s going to be okay. “What do you mean?”
“What will the top people think of our 5th division if Kang Jinseok wins the role, the actor in the 5th division will be drinking water again…”
“—.”
“Honestly, Kang Jinseok is better at acting than Lee Homin. I’m worried.”
Team leader Nam speaks carefully.
However, the head of the five departments swept his hair with a relaxed gesture despite Nam’s concern.
Not at all, as if there were nothing wrong with it at all.
“Team leader Nam. You don’t need to worry about this.”
“Pardon?”
“Kang Jinseok will never get a role this time. I think the role of ‘Oh Manho’ will go to Lee Taesik in the 4th room.”
Team leader Nam asked curiously. It was as if he still didn’t understand.
“How can you be so sure of that?”
“How can you be that certain?”
The head of the 5th office said in a calm manner.
“There is someone among the judges who is on our side.”
