Chapter 109

    Chapter 109

    Jung Isuls violin lessons, which she thought would end by the new year, continued until spring. After practicing the violin, Seo-jun and Jung Isul would sit in the practice room and chat while eating snacks.

    I dont know if Im teaching Seo-jun or playing with him.

    Hahaha.

    Dont you think so? Maybe the professors would have more to teach, but Im still a student and I dont know much.

    This is enough for me. Thank you, teacher.

    Jung Isul smiled at Seo-juns words. Teaching Seo-jun was a good time for Jung Isul.

    There are geniuses in the world that you cant even imagine. And there are many things to learn from a genius.

    Jung Isuls skills improved rapidly as she played the violin with Seo-jun. She wanted to go back to school and play in front of everyone as soon as possible.

    Seeing Jung Isul like that, Seo-jun also thought that the teacher was a very nice person.

    Jung Isul was briefly discouraged by Seo-juns excellent learning ability, but she quickly regained her energy and took it as a good nutrient.

    I read the script, but I had no idea how it would turn out. Is this how ordinary people feel when they read sheet music? Do you imagine scenes when you read the script, Seo-jun?

    It depends on the directors directing style, but I get a rough idea. Its like music, different conductors have different feelings.

    Oh. I see. But the script itself was really fun. Is this going to be the movie?

    Seo-jun shook his head at Jung Isuls question.

    It could be, or the script or the directing could change and the feeling could be different.

    Really? I wonder what kind of movie it will be.

    Maybe because she heard Benjamin Mortons music and read the script, music flowed in her head as she read the script.

    Jung Isul was eagerly waiting for the movie to be released. The problem was that they hadnt even filmed it yet.

    By the way, when do you start filming?

    I got a call from the director, and I think well go to the U.S. sometime in May. Well practice for two weeks and start filming in June.

    May Thats not much time left.

    Yes. I wish it was May already.

    Seo-juns eyes sparkled. It was the first time he had such a long practice period.

    He had other opportunities to film in the meantime, but he was already hooked on this work and didnt consider them at all.

    Ah. I want to film soon.

    [20th College Student Film Festival, Kim Suhan wins gold!]

    [Director Kim Suhan, known as a fan of Najin (Lee Seo-jun), wins!]

    -Lol, hes the first fan of Najin who got his autograph lol

    -He became a director. Well, he must have a good eye for becoming a fan of Lee Seo-jun just by his voice.

    -Whats the movie about? Does Cheongryong appear?

    -No lol, its a horror movie lol

    -Lee Seo-jun hasnt been active for a year and a half

    =Come back soon!!

    Seo-jun, did you see this?

    Yeah. Suhan hyung. He became a director.

    I know. You never know what peoples lives are like. Maybe well work together with Seo-jun someday.

    Hahaha. Maybe well make a horror movie. Then dad wont be able to watch it.

    Lee Min Jun made a sad face at Seo-juns words. It was his sons work, but it was a horror movie. He wasnt sure if he could watch it or not. Seo-jun, Lee Eun Hye, and Lee Eun Chan laughed at that.

    Da Ho will go in a few days. If you need anything in the U.S., contact Da Ho.

    Okay.

    Seo-jun nodded at Lee Eun Chans words. Lee Min Jun hugged Lee Eun Hye and Seo-jun.

    Ill take some vacation and go. Take care of yourself. And Seo-jun, do well in filming.

    Okay! Dad, you too.

    Lets go.

    Seo-jun and Lee Eun Hye, wearing black hats, pulled their suitcases and disappeared into the departure hall. Soon, a plane flew to LA in the sky.

    ***

    Hi!! Seo-jun.

    At that, the two children gasped. No one had told them who the main character was until now, and it was Seo-jun Lee!

    Among the actors who attended the same acting academy, Seo-jun Lee was the object of envy. Everyone, whether adult or child, wanted to be famous like Seo-jun Lee and do great acting.

    This is Catherine Miller, the actress who plays Rebecca.

    Sara Roth pointed to the girl. The blonde girl, who was slightly taller than Seo-jun, waved her hand lightly.

    This is Paul Oden, the actor who plays George.

    The boy who looked like a mischief-maker smiled broadly and reached out his hand. Seo-jun also smiled and shook his hand.

    Hi. Im Seo-jun Lee. You can call me Jun.

    Im Catherine.

    Im Paul. Nice to meet you!

    As Seo-jun and the children were shaking hands, Director Sara Roths phone rang. The caller was Professor Benjamin Morton. Sara Roth got up from her seat.

    It must be the professor. Ill go get him. Wait here.

    Okay.

    Director Sara Roth left the practice room and Catherine, who had been hesitating, opened her mouth.

    Can you give me your autograph later? I really enjoyed your movie.

    Sure. Can you also tell me the movies you starred in? Ill look them up.

    Um. The movies I was in are not very fun. They all flopped.

    Seo-jun said with a smile at Catherines words.

    Even if the movies flopped, you did your best, right? I want to see your acting more than the movies. We have to act together from now on. Id appreciate it if Paul could tell me too.

    It was much easier to understand the other persons acting than to know nothing.

    It might not matter for a simple role, but Catherine and Paul were supposed to match their breath with Seo-jun from the beginning to the end, so it was more important.

    Catherine and Paul nodded at Seo-juns words. The famous actor was really different.

    I see. Okay. Ill tell you.

    Give me your contact too.

    Oh. I can contact Jun? My friends wont believe it!

    Paul and Catherine took out their phones with excited faces. Seo-jun also took out his phone with a cheerful smile.

    Soon, Director Sara Roth came in with two men.

    The middle-aged man who looked like Professor Benjamin Morton had gray hair and a thin body, but he didnt look weak. He looked like a kind teacher with a neat outfit and a faint smile.

    The man who came in with him looked like he was in his mid-twenties and had a stiff face. His outfit was as neat as Benjamin Mortons, but his eyes were fierce. Catherine and Paul, who were intimidated, closed their mouths.

    This is the person who made the music for our movie.

    Im Benjamin Morton.

    Benjamin Morton said politely. Catherine and Paul were bewildered by the polite greeting from the adult. Seo-jun greeted him first.

    Hello. Im Seo-jun Lee. Please call me Jun.

    Yes. Jun. I look forward to working with you.

    Catherine and Paul also greeted him bravely. Benjamin Morton smiled and the atmosphere relaxed.

    The kindness was also conveyed to the children, and Benjamin Morton started a small talk first. Seo-jun and the children also opened their mouths comfortably.

    In the warm atmosphere, the man who was alone stood still without saying anything. He had a disgruntled look in his eyes, but he tried not to show it and seemed to hide it well.

    However, the problem was that this was a place where there were actors who had to act with their eyes and directors who had to capture and make them into works.

    Even if they were child actors, they were actors. Catherine and Paul poked Seo-juns back with their fingers. Seo-jun also gestured with his hand behind his back. They seemed to have noticed without saying anything.

    This is my student.

    Im Jayden Moore.

    But something changed in his mind, and Jayden Moores disgruntled look subsided. The director and the actors were rather puzzled by Jayden Moores polite attitude.

    But anyway. Seo-jun shrugged his shoulders. It would have been a bit awkward if he had kept that look, but it was good that he changed.

    Seo-jun reached out his hand.

    Im Jun. Nice to meet you.

    Yeah. Nice to meet you.

    The children also exchanged greetings with Jayden Moore. Benjamin Morton, who was satisfied with the softened atmosphere, opened his mouth.

    Shall we start by looking at what each of you practiced so far? We need to see how familiar you are with it to know how to practice from now on.

    Yes!

    At that, Catherine and Seo-jun, who had to play the violin in the movie, answered.
