Ten Million Psychopath Actor

2. What happens when a killer takes on the role of an assassin

A few days later, Kyu-ha arrived at the filming site after receiving a call from director Ji Young-seok, a friend of Seol Woo-don’s president.

The filming site outside the screen was cluttered with all kinds of shouting and people running around.

Kyu-ha approached the person who looked like a director to anyone and greeted him.

“hello. I ask you to sing. I came here with the introduction of Mr. Seol Woo-don.”

“Song Gyu-ha? I’ve heard a lot about Udon. Thank you so much for being willing to help. Come over here.”

Director Ji Young-seok asked the costume team to put me in work clothes and explained the overall shooting.

“What Gyuha does is simple. Just do the normal shaping work. The camera will focus on Kyuha’s back and hands, so you don’t have to worry about the camera… Oh! If possible, I would appreciate it if you could write your technique a little more colorfully than you usually do. Of course, if it seems dangerous, it doesn’t matter if you do what you normally do.”

“Yes, I understand.”

“Then we will start filming in five minutes. Stand by the shooting team!”

Gyu-ha grabbed the knife given as a prop and went to the chunk of beef caught on the hook.

“Well···. How much can I do.. But since it’s a movie, let’s do it properly for the first time in a while.”

“Now, Gyuha, are you ready? So let’s get started. Ready~ Action~!”

Standing in front of the piece of meat, Gyu-ha closed his eyes for a moment and opened them, and in an instant, his eyes became those of Lee Hyun.

The knife in his hand began to cut through the front legs of the cow like lightning, and whenever Kyu-ha’s hand moved, the cow’s bones and meat began to separate without hesitation.

The filming site began to be overwhelmed by the aura flowing from Kyuha.

“Wow… Was the formality so powerful?”

“Are you just crazy? I can’t even see my hand.”

The shooting staff whispered and looked at Kyu-ha’s shaping work as if possessed.

Kyu-ha vomited the spirit of dismantling a cow into 10th place in 8 minutes, and received the director’s ok sign at once without re-shooting.

“nice! It came out so much better than the picture I thought! I will put in the performance fee so that I don’t get upset. I had a hard time filming today.”

“No, Director. I was asked to come, but I also had fun filming. Please call me anytime if something similar happens.”

After filming was completed safely, Kyu-ha returned to his dorm.

a few days later

“Tiri-ro-li-li-li”

Kyu-ha, who was resting in the room, rang.

Looking at the destination, it was director Ji Young-seok’s phone.

“Yes, Director. This is Song Gyu-ha.”

“How have you been, Kyuha? Nothing different…”

The purpose of the call from director Ji Young-seok was that a director he was close with was filming a historical drama-style movie, and he recommended a minor role in the role of an assassin because he thought it would suit Kyu-ha well.

“The role has almost no lines, but there is an action scene where you have to use a small sword, so I thought of Kyu-ha. The atmosphere seems to fit well… How is it? Do you want to try it?”

Filming Kyu-ha was more fun than I thought, and when I heard that he was an assassin, I became interested in it because I remembered the time when I was living with Lee Hyun.

“Yes. That will be fine. Thank you for the opportunity, Director.”

“Good for you! Then I’ll contact that friend, so take good care of it.”

A few days later, the assistant director of the film gave me the address of the filming site over the phone, and Kyu-ha headed there.

“hello. I ask you to sing.”

“ah! nice to meet you. My name is Gucheol Yang, the assistant director.”

Assistant director Yang Gu-cheol gave a general introduction to the film to Kyu-ha.

“The title of the movie we are filming is ‘The Palace of Blood’.

Briefly, it is a work depicting the secret struggle of princes such as Imhaegun Lee Jin, Gwanghaegun Divorce, Jeongwongun Lee Joo, and Sunhwagun Yibo, sons of Seonjo during the Joseon Dynasty.

The role that Kyu-ha will take on here is ‘Su-chil’, an assassin who is subordinate to Lee Jin of Imhae-gun.”

The character Soo-chil played the role of a so-called hound dog who, under the orders of Im-hae-gun Lee Jin, kidnaps and tortures Gwang-hae-gun’s most cherished confidant, only to be eventually discovered and killed by Gwang-hae-gun.

“Although the role of Soo-chil is a minor role, there is an important scene. To express his cruel mind, the scene where he brutally tortures Gwanghae’s henchman, ‘Lee Wi-gyeong’, and at the end, the scene where he carves the word ‘警告 (warning)’ with a dagger as a warning to Gwanghaegun is the point.”

Gyu-ha had done many more brutal murders, so he just nodded.

“Since this scene is an important scene where Gwanghaegun’s wrath begins, it needs to be shot brutally and vividly.

We have prepared a lot of dummy (human body models), so you don’t have to worry too much.”

“I will do my best.”

If you put your mind to it, would it be a job to engrave a warning with a knife to Gyuha, who can engrave even one sijo?

As a result, there was no pressure at all for filming.

“The filming will take place in an hour, and you can wait in costume before going into filming. Costume team! Here, Gyuha, please prepare the station setting! Then I’ll see you in a little while.”

So assistant director Yang Goo-cheol left and Kyu-ha received a costume for the role of Soo-chil from the costume team and wore it.

The costume was all black, like an assassin’s, and he even wore a mask, the trademark of an assassin.

The scar extending from the corner of the mouth to the cheek was made with special makeup, and the overall pale feeling was used to give a cold feeling.

It had become a harsh shame painting itself.

After some time, the costumes and make-up were ready, and the shooting began in earnest.

[Blood Palace]

Imhaegun Lee Jin notices that the king of this country and his father are trying to appoint Gwanghaegun Divorce, the son of a concubine, as the crown prince over him as the eldest son.

Lee Jin, whose personality is tyrannical and cruel, orders the kidnapping of Lee Wi-gyeong, the henchman of the divorce, by sending the assassin Su-chil, who he usually uses to get rid of people.

As ordered by Lee Jin, Soo-chil kidnaps Lee Wi-gyeong, brings him to her safe house, and imprisons him.

He then poured cold water on his face to wake him up.

Surprised, Lee Wi-gyeong looks at Soo-chil with a face that reflects embarrassment and fear.

“Huup! Where am I..? Who are you! Why did you bring me here!?”

Masked Soo-chil looked at Lee Wi-gyeong with cold eyes without saying anything.

“this···. Hey look, save me. I don’t know who you are because you’re wearing a mask. So if you leave now, there’s no way I’ll catch you, so let me go. If you harm me, you will be in great trouble.”

Lee Wi-gyeong, sensing that something terrible is about to happen, desperately tries to convince Su-chil.

Soo-chil, who was listening to Lee Wi-gyeong, suddenly took off his mask.

“Now we know each other’s faces.”

After taking off the mask, Soo-chil’s face was extremely ferocious. A scar that stretches from the corner of the right mouth to the bottom of the ear in the pallor of a corpse. And the terribly emotionless eyes filled Lee Wi-gyeong with fear.

“Save me, save me, uuu”

Su-chil inserts the mask he wore into Lee Wi-gyeong’s mouth and starts torturing him.

Suchil’s torture methods were quite brutal.

First of all, I started cutting off the limbs with a large hammer, but the knife was not sharp, so I struck it several times and cut it off from the body.

From then on, Li Wi-gyeong was already insane, and she lost so much blood that she lost her mind.

The frightening thing was that despite such cruel torture, Su-chil’s expression did not show any emotion.

In the end, Lee Wi-gyeong, who had been subjected to continued torture, gradually stopped moving with the blood vessels in her eyes bursting with pain.

Soo-chil, who has been watching Lee Wi-gyeong as if she were appreciating her own work, holds a dagger in her hand and takes off Lee Wi-gyeong’s coat and carves the word ‘警告 (warning)’ on the board.

As long as it is not engraved on a person’s back, it is neatly engraved with a knife so that it can be called a master’s calligraphy, and then leaves the safe house without any regrets.

……….

The scene was so quiet that I wondered if it was the filming site that was so cluttered.

Director Kim Young-chul was so immersed in Kyu-ha’s acting that he forgot the OK sign for a moment.

“big···. Cut ok very good.”

As soon as the director gave an ok sign, actor Park Man-cheol, who played Lee Wi-gyeong, looked at Kyu-ha as if he was fed up, and went outside to calm down his emotions for a while.

“mi···. crazy what is that person I was so scared that now all my downy hair is standing.”

“No, I only prepared 20 dummy, but I finished it in one queue! What is the speed and accuracy of swinging a sword?”

Director Kim Young-chul hurriedly called assistant director Yang Gu-cheol.

“Hey, Gucheol, who is that friend? What are you doing?”

Assistant director Yang Gu-cheol also said in bewilderment, as if he had never imagined that Kyu-ha would show such an impact.

“I sang it because I was recommended by director Ji Young-seok, but in fact, I am not an actor, but a meat trimmer.”

“What!? No but what kind of acting are you doing like that? He almost stopped filming thinking it was real torture… Okay! I need to put a little more effort into the role of Soo-chil.”

As if inspired by something, director Kim Young-cheol began editing the scene where Soo-chil died on the spot.

Originally, Soo-chil was thoroughly used as a tool by Im-hae-gun Lee Jin, and then died in vain after being hit by the arrow of the pursuit party sent by divorce.

But was it the director’s intuition? I thought that I would regret it if I let Suchil die meaninglessly like this, so I slightly changed Suchil’s ending.

Originally, if the character Su-chil was mean and driven by money, director Kim Yeong-cheol modifies the role like this.

When Imhae-gun Lee Jin went stealthily to the village when he was young, he found Su-chil beaten by gangsters in the slums and rescued him.

With this as an opportunity, Soo-chil swore to be faithful to Jin Lee for the rest of his life, and as he grew up, he changed the order into a faithful character who silently fulfilled his orders no matter what, despite the increasingly violent and cruel appearance of Jin Jin.

“great. Then, let’s shoot Suchil’s death scene right away.”

***

[Blood Palace]

As ordered by his lord Lee Jin, the mission of brutally killing Lee Wi-gyeong and sending a warning message was completed, but Gwanghaegun Divorce, who was enraged at the fact that Lee Wi-gyeong had been kidnapped, immediately sent a huge number of pursuit troops and was already besieging Anga.

Realizing that he can no longer escape, Soo-chil stands alone in front of hundreds of pursuers.

“Yeah man! Obediently be captured, and then I will spare your life.”

Soo-chil, who looked at the pursuers surrounding him with calm eyes, soon grabbed his sword and rushed at the enemies.

At that moment, dozens of arrows pierced Suchil’s body.

“Ouch.”

Fresh blood flowed from Soo-chil’s mouth, but he walked towards the pursuit team one step at a time.

However, he couldn’t even go three steps, and dozens of arrows pierced his body again, and when the number of arrows stuck in his body became uncountable, his movement stopped.

“Okay cut good!”

“Wow, the acting kills… Was the role of Su-chil that cool?”

“I’m moving forward even though I’m being hit by an arrow, but the look in my eyes… I thought I was a general, not an assassin.”

Having done his part, Kyu-ha said goodbye to the field staff and left the scene.

It was easy to be immersed in the last shooting scene as well, because I became a hero of Moorim and died miserably after running away for a long time.

Anyway, accepting CEO Seol Woo-don’s request became a small relationship and allowed him to have a special experience of acting, so Kyu-ha went home satisfied.

As ‘Blood Palace’ was released, he didn’t know what might happen to him.
