I Will Live As An Actor - Chapter 177
I Will Live as an Actor Episode 177:
Time passes like running water.
Before we knew it, it was the day when the making film was aired. It was unusual to air a making film for pre-promotion of a drama. Therefore, there was a lot of interest not only from the general public but also from broadcasters.
“Isn’t this at the level of a documentary?”
PDs from other broadcasting companies were gossiping among themselves about the pre-promotional making film run by M Broadcasting Company. This was because the very idea of using a making film as a pre-promotional video was absurd in today’s Korean drama version.
“I don’t know why they’re broadcasting something like that. “If you’re not careful, the content could be leaked before it even starts airing, and even if it does well, what kind of interest does a documentary video attract?”
“PD Park, that’s what I said. They may have created a stir among us by promoting it in advance with a making film for no reason. “I have a hard time keeping up with the pre-recording schedule, but I also have to pay attention to the making of film at a certain time.”
“Leave it alone, MBS needs to be completely broken this time to come to his senses. The producer in charge is the youngest and this is his debut project? The deputy director who approved the making film said he was famous for having CP this time, but it’s like breaking a nose trying to put together a group of beginners.”
Cigarette smoke rises from the rooftop, and the PDs’ curses and laughter never cease. Meanwhile, PD Kim Jin, who was alone on one side of the rooftop, had different thoughts.
‘They don’t know.’
Kim Jin had experience working with England in the past. It was difficult to evaluate Jang Young-guk as just an actor.
When you walk around the filming set together, you can see how extensive his knowledge of drama and movie directing is and how broad he is drawing a blueprint.
How much advice did Kim Jin himself ask for from England while filming?
‘I didn’t miss it then!’
It’s all because of old people. These are the elders who sit on their butts at the top of the broadcasting station and eat away at their age.
You may not be able to use the word family (IF) in your life, but what would have happened by now if the SBC Drama Awards had given the grand prize to England?
-Get Jang Young-guk somehow!
It was a story that the head of the drama department, including the drama director, kept talking about.
But how can you stop a bus that has already left? Now, it’s not at the bus level, but at the plane level. Britain’s status has risen incomparably compared to three years ago.
The pre-promotion for this drama was the same. If he were an ordinary actor, he wouldn’t have become a hot topic like this. I just thought the broadcasting station had thrown in an unreasonable number again.
However, when the three letters Jang Young-guk were included, the level of interest was enormous. Kim Jin could feel it intuitively.
‘I’m sure it will be a huge hit.’
This is Kim Jin, wiping his dry lips for no reason. The more I thought about it, the more I regretted missing England.

“CEO, even though it hasn’t been aired yet, are you asking us all to watch the pre-promotional video together?”
Actress Park Soo-young visited Songwon Entertainment late at night. It was none other than to watch a pre-promotional video for the drama ‘The Little Mermaid’.
Aren’t all of the agency’s employees, including CEO Kim Seong-hwan, already present in the conference room?
“You even ordered a whole chicken?”
In response to Park Soo-young’s question, Kim Seong-hwan handed over a chicken leg and said:
“Why do they say Mt. Geumgang is also the after-prandial view? Actor Park also sat down and ripped off a chicken leg. “This place is very famous for its whole garlic chicken.”
“Don’t you know I’m on a diet for my next project? What, Minjeong, were you here too? “Oh, Jaekyung is here too?”
Park Soo-young’s eyes widened when she saw the other actresses already eating whole chicken. Actresses and dieting were a fateful combination that could not be separated. This was because if I gained even a little weight, it would immediately show up on the screen.
“You kids who know that you have to work hard to get good screen quality are eating like this.”
“Why is Actor Park killing the kids? They say I, the CEO, are fine. And if you gain some weight, you can lose it again.”
“Yes, we can take it out again. “You talk as if you’ll get something out of it in exchange for something.”
Park Soo-young stuck out his tongue. Kim Seong-hwan, CEO of Songwon Entertainment, was a different person from other entertainment industry representatives. If it had been another agency, they would have just thrown in a bunch of nutritious grass and squeezed it until it was completely dry.
But I liked that. Each of these little details meant that they were being treated as individuals rather than mere products.
“Start!”
Someone in the conference room shouts out, and everyone’s eyes turn to the large cathode ray tube located on the central wall of the conference room. Park Soo-young also sits next to CEO Kim Seong-hwan and focuses his attention.
‘It’s a making film… … .’
Even for Park Soo-young, who has been building up her filmography across broadcasting and Chungmuro, this was her first time hearing about a drama making film. That’s because even in Chungmuro, there were still very few cases of making-of films being filmed.
‘Will it work out?’
There is a joke that starting out as a broadcaster is either a disaster or a jackpot. It meant that there was nothing half-hearted. The same goes for airing the making film as a pre-promotional video.
But her worries began to disappear like lies once the making film aired.
“and… … .”
A man is swimming with the emerald sea as a background.
A school of fish circles around him, and the man plays among them as if he were the mermaid prince, as the title of the drama suggests.
Eventually, everyone is amazed by the smile of the man coming to land under the brilliant sunlight.
“It’s a complete pictorial.”
As someone said, it was not an ordinary making film. It almost seemed like a video made by Jang Young-guk’s fan club, capturing every detail of what was happening at the filming site.
However, the directing was so amazing that it made viewers think it was a pictorial advertisement rather than a making film.
gulp.
It was a making film planned to last an hour, but no one was able to even think about chatting and was completely absorbed in it. Moreover, the highlight was at the end.
Actress Park Soo-young ended up dropping the chicken leg she had carefully picked up. The sight of England jumping off the cliff without hesitation.

[The pre-promotional making film for the drama ‘The Little Mermaid’ is a huge success!]
[M Broadcasting Company is flooded with calls asking for the Little Mermaid Prince to air quickly!]
[Critic Kim Jae-cheol ‘The Little Mermaid Prince’ will mark a milestone in the history of Korean dramas. ‘]
The Little Mermaid Prince’s pre-promotional making film was a huge hit. In particular, the cliff scene that aired at the end of the making film was truly a highlight.
Since it was aired with the accident scene deleted, everyone who watched the making film thought it was just part of a drama scene.
“When I go down, I raise it and try again. You have to look like a prince on a white horse. “When composing the composition, I will move from the back to the side, so please keep that in mind!”
On the other hand, the filming site is overflowing with excitement regardless of the reaction to the making film.
Kim Woo-hyung was walking around the filming site until his feet were sweating. In addition to understanding the direction of the production, we were repeatedly rehearsing in detail, including lighting and the width of the track for inside work.
“Producer, you’re overflowing with passion, aren’t you?”
“Oh England. “When did you come?”
“I came here a while ago and was reading the script. “I couldn’t say hello to the producer because he seemed busy giving directions to the filming site.”
“I’m out of my mind right now. Did you see the making film aired? The reaction is no joke. There have been so many phone calls since last night. Later, even the vice president contacted me directly. They say they are looking forward to this project, but don’t say anything. “It’s more burdensome.”
Even though he says that, he seems to be in a very good mood. Not only was it not enough to receive public attention from my debut work, I was contacted directly by the vice president of a broadcasting station.
“Oh my goodness, England. How soon will the movie be released in Hong Kong after we air it?”
England nodded briefly. Chu Feng Si (秋風詞), which was filmed with director Wang Jinyang, a master of the Hong Kong film industry, was also scheduled to be released in the near future. For a while, I had to go back and forth between Korea and Hong Kong to focus on filming the drama.
“If this continues, won’t Britain win a big award at an overseas film festival?”
“It would be difficult if you already put me on a plane.”
“Airplane: Director Jinyang Wang was the best director in Hong Kong at the time. The UK is really proud that you are the lead in such a famous director’s comeback film. And most importantly, it still feels like a dream to England that you will appear in our drama.”
Past Life, Chupungsa (秋風詞) is director Wang Jinyang’s spectacular comeback film, and as such, it received several awards at overseas film festivals.
However, I had not heard that the actor had won the award. This may be because the main point of Chupungsa Temple was the visual beauty that showed the beautiful colors of Hong Kong rather than the acting skills of the actors.
“By the way, I’m ready for a kissing scene today, but you brushed your teeth well, right?”
“What kind of kiss is it?”
“If you kiss me, you’ll kiss me, but aren’t you looking forward to it?”
Kim Woo-hyung makes a sly expression and narrows his eyes. Just then, Yeonsu arrived at the filming site. England was able to leave quickly under the pretext of going to say hello to Yeonsu.
“Oppa, did you see the making film yesterday?”
Yeon-soo forgets to say hello and starts by asking if he has seen the making film. Unfortunately, England, who couldn’t watch because of filming, shook his head.
“That’s right, there was a night photoshoot yesterday.”
“How about a making film?”
“That’s amazing. If you look at the making film, there’s no separate pictorial. It came out well for me too, but no matter how I looked at it, it seemed like the editing was done mainly for my brother. I guess the producer at that time was a fan of my brother. And thank you.”
“what?”
Yeon-soo lowers her head as if she is embarrassed and elaborates.
“I didn’t know my brother jumped off a cliff like that. “I knew they saved me, but seeing the video made me feel real.”
“It’s okay, and if you’re grateful, be nice to your brother from now on.”
England patted Yeonsu’s head for no reason. I hoped that Yeonsu would no longer be burdened by the events of that day.
Of course, even if such a situation were to happen again, England would go to Yeonsu without hesitation. It was then.
“So today is the third time?”
“huh?”
“I mean the kiss scene.”
What does this mean? England thought deeply. This was my first time filming a kiss scene with Yeonsu. To be exact, it’s closer to a light kiss.
“Once before at the dock and once when my brother saved me. “Count it, it’s third, right?”
I remembered that. England glanced at the bridge of his nose and nodded briefly. At that moment, training approaches.
side.
Yeonsu, who kissed the Volga in England, explains with a mischievous smile.
“This is a rehearsal.”
