Became a Genius Writer the Popular Actresses Is Obsessed With

chapter 12



12 – What kind of magic did you use?

I had a phone call with Seol So-yeong, and at the end she asked me this.

Please keep watching your performance until you succeed in this climax scene.

When she heard that, she honestly thought she would be on set all day today.

It was a weekend anyway, and I watched her performance comfortably with the mindset that if it was late, Yongseok’s older brother would take care of it and take care of it.

But it is.

Her acting was one that I couldn’t easily watch with ease.

What is it?

Did you ask me to watch you because you wanted to brag?

“Big, cut!”

Recording ended completely with director Go Dong-bin’s urgent termination sign.

The staff started looking at each other as if they had come back to their senses only after hearing that voice.

And.

─Crazy.

Clap clap clap clap.

All of them instinctively exclaimed and applauded the actors.

Usually, when the staff claps in unison like that at the scene, they end all the filming, or they give credit to actors who have not participated in the filming anymore to mean that they have suffered so far.

However, I don’t clap when I finish filming just one cut scene like I do now.

Then why are they reacting like that?

The answer was simple.

That’s just pure admiration for the acting actor who showed off his crazy acting skills.

Um.

To be honest, Seol So-young’s acting just now impressed me.

As a story writer, I think the most important thing when playing the winter of the climax scene is the emotional line.

The joy of finally being able to share her memories with Ha-on as he recalls all the memories of her past, and the sadness of having to part with him.

It is indeed difficult to express these two opposite emotions at the same time.

If the ratio of that emotional line tilts to one side, the atmosphere of this climax scene will also lean to one side.

I didn’t even conscientiously ask for a 5:5 ratio.

Because it is difficult even for a first-class actor to handle emotions so perfectly.

I was willing to give up 6 to 4, even 7 to 3 if things didn’t work out.

Just.

Just now, Seol So-young’s performance was perfectly 5:5.

Her voice, gestures, and atmosphere were the winter itself that I had only imagined, and the face she looked up at Haon at the end was still etched in my mind.

A smile filled with nostalgia.

And the tears contrasted with that smile.

Seol So-young’s tears were actually close to ad-libs.

In the first place, I had no intention of using a scene where I shed tears when filming this scene.

Usually, when actors act out tears, using artificial tears or sticks to stimulate their eyes can easily interfere with acting, which requires keeping the emotional line neutral as it is now.

And tears usually come out naturally when you have completely crossed the emotional line of sadness.

I knew that it was possible to some extent with the power of talent and hard work because I had seen the acting of countless actors in my previous life with my own eyes.

However, it was only possible when they were completely immersed in the emotional line of sadness.

It is so absurd to shed tears while maintaining two emotional lines at the same time like Seol So-yeong just now.

So, what about Seol So-yeong’s acting skills?

‘I’m possessed.’

I thought maybe this expression would be the most appropriate.

“… ….”

Namgoong-hwan, who matched acting with Seol So-young, also had a blank face.

It seems that the afterglow of her acting with her just now hasn’t gone away yet.

An actor whose acting is all over has come to that extent, but what kind of reaction will viewers who will see that scene with vague BGM, special effects, and corrections added to it?

If I had to use an analogy, I would feel like eating eggplant stir-fry until now.

“hehehehe… ….”

My PD, who was next to me, laughed with a bad laugh.

I thought you were probably thinking the same thing as me.

At that time, he naturally met my eyes and asked me such a question.

“Writer, what kind of magic did you use on Miss Soyoung?”

“Uh… ….”

I really don’t know about this one?

Rather, I was more curious.

What kind of change of heart did he have in that short amount of time, so that he could show off his magical acting skills like that?

To be honest, anyone who has just seen Seol So-yeong’s acting skills would have a hard time imagining that she continued to stir up her NG until a few days ago.

“Heh heh, you are very humble.”

But I, the PD, didn’t believe me at all.

No, this time I didn’t really do anything?

“After… I am PD. First of all, is today’s filming over here?”

“Yes. Probably. First of all, today’s goal was to finish filming the climax scene.”

“Well, on a happy weekend like today, a short shoot would be good for everyone’s mental health.”

“You are right. But why did you ask that?”

“Now that my work is done, I must go home.”

Actually, I contacted Yongseok hyung in advance.

I just received an answer saying that we will leave as soon as we come to the parking lot.

“Ah, for reference, I am PD. If, during the filming of episode 16, the last episode, So-young does another NG, just wait for So-young to act wonderfully like now.”

“Writer! Then the schedule—”

“Please put it off.”

I firmly cut off my PD-nim.

He looked at me with a puzzled expression.

“Yes?”

“You seem to have heard, but what are you pretending not to hear? Just put it off. What are you going to do with the burden of schedules for a kid who has already entered the path of an actor for the first time?”

Nim PD-nim couldn’t refute what I said.

In the first place, when a variable happened, he had to somehow adjust the schedule because he was sitting in the seat of the production director.

Well, since you’re a quick-witted person, you must have roughly understood what I’m talking about.

Just.

“If I can’t properly fulfill the author’s request, what will you do then?”

I don’t like this kind of curiosity…….

I didn’t think in detail about what to do with his question.

Still, wouldn’t it be roughly like this?

“I will be really angry with Studio N Mix. Of course you will be disappointed. What… We’ll have to see how that affects our relationship then.”

… ….

After hearing Eunwoo’s words, Na Youngjin thought.

927 What the writer said was practically a threat.

To Na Young-jin’s ears, it meant that if that time came, she would no longer be with Studio En Mix.

“Don’t worry. There will be nothing to disappoint the author in the future.”

But Na Young-jin nodded her head as if the request he had made was natural.

…… Seol So-young’s crazy acting skills just showed off in the climax scene.

And the little boy in front of you also has crazy potential to casually create high-quality scripts.

Na Young-jin had a hunch.

If these two talents are combined like they are now, the current drama market will change a lot.

That’s why, from his point of view, he had to catch these two by all means.

Even if it makes you… Well, even if I get a little tired, it’s okay, that’s what I thought back then.

But…….

Na Young-jin of the distant future said that she regretted the decision she made that day.

***

“After… ….”

After completing her performance, Seol So-young let out a sigh of relief.

She took on her acting with a much lighter heart than usual.

She said that she would take responsibility for any mistakes she made.

Also, the request she shared with him at the end of the phone call played a decisive role.

Somewhere on the set, that person is watching his performance.

This alone was enough to ignite Seol So-young’s will.

And, Seol So-young, who finished all of her acting, could assure her.

He would not be ashamed of her performance this time.

Perhaps it was a performance worthy of his expectations.

And…….

‘… Where do you want to be?’

Actually, the reason she asked me to stay and watch her performance was to show him her own performance, but also for a completely different purpose.

That’s what tying the person’s ankles to the scene.

Seol So-yeong has always wanted to meet the 927 artist herself.

At first, it was just curiosity.

Because I was curious about what a person who believed in me looked like and what kind of person he was.

And because of the phone call a little while ago, her one-dimensional curiosity turned into something called ‘thirst’.

Seol So-yeong wanted to meet him right now in order to somehow quench her thirst for the unknown reason.

“… ….”

Seol So-yeong carefully looked around the scene.

This is a woman’s intuition, but….

That person is never someone who would lie to himself. So you will definitely be somewhere on the scene to do her favor.

Looking around with such confidence, what is this?

A man with an unfamiliar back was walking somewhere far away with producer Na Young-jin.

Seol So-yeong instinctively moved her steps to get closer to him.

‘I found it.’

With the heart of conviction.

But…….

“Wow, Soyoung, what the hell happened during the break?”

“Eh? Now, hold on!”

Because she was forcibly captured by Namgoonghwan actor and staff who were nearby, she had to listen to praises continuously until director Goh Dong-bin announced the end of filming.

After all, it was quite a while, so Seol So-young could not meet the 927 artist.

“Huh… ….”

It was a bonus to sound like you were upset about something.
