A Genius Actor Who Brings Misfortune - Chapter 490

The genius actor who brings misfortune (490)

Today is the first day of filming for the movie ‘Ilya’.

And it was also the first time my fellow actors saw me with all my styling done.

“(Oh my God, Ilya!)”

Their reaction was much hotter than expected.

“(Bambi, you’re crazy.)”

“(Hey, you… Be nice to your parents.)”

“(Yeonjae, do you have a conscience? Seriously, how can I film with this guy?)”

I laughed in vain amidst the compliments pouring in from both sides.

‘How many names do I have?’

Some of my fellow actors who found out about Biyeon’s existence called me Bambi, and some insisted on using ‘Yeonjae Lee’ out of respect for my Korean name.

“(Ethan, you really are like a fairy…)”

Even in the midst of all this, the most amazing thing was David, who stubbornly called me Ethan.

“(David is cool too.)”

The human he will play appears in the beginning or middle part of the movie, and there is still some time left before filming begins.

In other words, his presence on set today was more as an investor than as a fellow actor.

‘Ahem.’

David, dressed up in a semi-formal suit and shoes that he doesn’t usually wear.

And then I saw a few strangers in the studio whose faces I was not familiar with, and that immediately struck me.

‘I guess you brought the investors.’

I see you’re trying to secure more investment funds after filming today.

David didn’t say much, probably because he didn’t want to burden me.

But I’m not stupid, how could I not know this?

“(I feel sorry for your family in Korea, but I also feel proud. I’m the first to see this.)”

“(Is that a compliment?)”

“(Then. This is the real birth of Ilya.)”

I smiled broadly as I looked at David, who was smiling with satisfaction.

“(Thank you. I will double your investment.)”

“(……You really can’t win.)”

David flinched for a moment, then burst into laughter.

I laughed too as I watched him laugh.

“(Then let’s start filming~!)”

Before we knew it, preparations for filming were complete.

I closed my eyes as I stood where I was supposed to wait.

“(You all know, right? If you make a mistake, just take it again!)”

I had to swallow my laughter at the director’s words telling me not to be too nervous.

‘What about tension?’

A feeling similar to tension, but distinctly different, enveloped my body.

The studio was quiet, but my ears were filled with the sound of my heart pounding.

“(Ready―.)”

Ah, finally.

I raised the corners of my mouth without realizing it.

“(Action!)”

Finally, filming began.

I opened my eyes in a state of excitement.

***

“(Cut-!)”

My body stopped moving at the director’s shout.

Sweat flowed down my forehead and into my eyes, regardless of my will. Ugh, it stung.

Luckily, a staff member came over and wiped away my sweat without me having to call him.

“(I need to touch up my eye makeup a bit. Use a brush.)”

“(Here!)”

“(Thank you. Yeonjae, could you close your eyes?)”

The makeup brush carefully swept across my eyes.

From the curly bangs to the makeup brushes, it was a constant tickle, so I gritted my teeth and endured it.

“(Oh, all the cuts are great. They’re perfect. I’ll take a 10-minute break and then go back for another try!)”

As Director Sean shouted out his words, his fellow actors fell to the floor as if they had been waiting for him.

“(Oh my, it’s perfect, why do I have to take more pictures?)”

“(……I feel like I’m going to die like this.)”

The actors, who were having their first shoot today, were exhausted.

‘Was I like that too?’

It’s already been two weeks since filming began.

Contrary to my worries, the filming went smoothly without any problems.

The wig now felt like a part of my body, and I was able to adapt to the wires that actors hate so much.

I think it was a little difficult on the first day of filming, but after two weeks, I was fine except for sweating a little.

‘The hard work paid off.’

I definitely felt like I had more stamina than before.

“(Bambi, if you have a conscience, take off your fairy title. You’re not a fairy, you’re a monster, right? A physical monster.)”

“(Did we have such infinite stamina when we were teenagers? I don’t think so.)”

“(Oh, don’t talk to me. I really feel like I’m going to die…)”

The reactions of my fellow actors were no different from those during rehearsal.

That familiar reaction made me feel more comfortable.

‘good night.’

Showing off the Ilya I had worked on for months to people was more exciting than I could have imagined.

He was a truly vibrant child and had such bright energy.

‘If Ilya were in the real world…’

I was so sure that the unfortunate factor had not stuck at all.

To be honest, it was an energy that felt a little bit crazy.

I’m pretty good at enduring most things these days, but I couldn’t handle Ilya’s overflowing energy.

‘If I had entered the fairy forest, I wouldn’t have lasted even a day.’

It was obvious that I would have passed out immediately because my energy was sucked out of me.

In that sense, the human in the play became more respectable.

How can you be dragged around by Ilya all day without fainting?

Yesterday, we filmed a scene where David, who plays the human role, sings.

In the Fairy Forest, everyone communicates through song and dance, so humans are also influenced by the worldview.

‘What, what is it? Why am I like this?’

The acting was top-notch, as he was amazed at himself singing naturally.

‘Anyway, your acting is really great.’

His acting was so clever and detailed that it made me jealous.

It was the same feeling I had when I filmed ‘The Atlas Dilemma’.

Even though we had only been filming for a few days, our chemistry was amazing, and although we didn’t say it out loud, we both knew it.

‘It’s fun.’

This is so fun I’m going crazy.

‘What on earth were you so worried about?’

I’m sure you were anxious before filming started, wondering if you could do it perfectly.

The moment the red light came on the camera, all distracting thoughts evaporated.

I was so absorbed in enjoying the performance that it was as if I was possessed by Ilya.

As I had practiced, my body moved smoothly, and with Ilya’s help, my acting became more lively.

Director Sean’s “okay” shout grew louder day by day, and I could clearly see the staff’s growing affection for me.

His fellow actors would nag him to take it easy, but when they actually saw the scene he was shooting, they would clap their hands like seals, saying, “Look at our Illiya shining.”

“(Oh, but I can’t concentrate. What should I do?)”

“(why?)”

At that moment, I heard my fellow actors talking.

“(I keep getting immersed and then I break down. Because of that damn green background.)”

“(Me too. But isn’t that how it’s supposed to be? Bambi is amazing.)”

“(This guy is really amazing. How can he concentrate in this situation? He doesn’t seem like a real person.)”

“(……I can hear everything.)”

Even though I spoke awkwardly, my fellow actors continued to chatter on without paying attention.

He continued to say that although it is definitely easier to move your body because the amount of practice has increased because of him, he has a hard time concentrating because of the background.

The green background they were talking about was ‘chroma key’.

The huts where the fairies live and various props were all created, but most of the background was planned to be processed with CG.

To ensure smooth CG work, chroma keys were installed here and there inside the studio.

“(Be honest. Are you having a hard time too?)”

“(Yes. Well, that’s right.)”

I vaguely replied to the comment that it was difficult to act as if I was looking at the vast ocean while looking at a green wall.

But inside, I was wondering.

‘Isn’t it better than taking pictures in the real ocean?’

Of course, it’s less immersive, but still, how lucky are we to be able to film inside a studio?

It was not affected by the weather and people’s comings and goings could be completely controlled.

‘There’s no need for the paparazzi to come in.’

Safety on set was a very important factor for Jinbae.

Then, it must be an important factor for me to see Jinbae hyung’s increasingly relaxed expression.

‘I want to continue filming quickly.’

I wondered why I was delaying in a situation where safety was guaranteed.

I couldn’t bring myself to say it out loud because my fellow actors were exhausted.

‘It’s so much fun.’

The number I’m singing today is also my favorite song.

A song introducing the fairy forest to humans.

‘Welcome to a little happiness.’

It was also a song that the documentary director heard and admired while practicing singing in Korea.

Jinbae hyung also said that this song was the best.

‘Well, there’s a high chance that he said it because I said it was good.’

Even Jinbae Hyung’s reaction was good.

These days, I’m so happy that I’m muttering, ‘Is it okay for things to be this good?’

Even the fog you encounter in the black space said this, so it says it all.

‘Yeonjae!’

‘Hello, Fog.’

‘You look happy today too! Hehe!’

While I was in the US, the main body, Han Haram, had to stay in Korea.

I was a little worried because he had shown signs of separation anxiety before, but he was holding up better than I expected.

Now that I could hold the black stone in my hand, I could concentrate more on filming thanks to the fog that told me that there would be no side effects for the time being.

“(Bambi, when are you going to Korea?”

He laughed and shouted at his fellow actor’s question.

“(Next major!)”

Yeah, that’s one of the reasons I feel good.

‘You can all see each other’s faces next week.’

Of course, filming like this was good, but I really wanted to see my family in Korea.

There was a thirst that couldn’t be quenched by video calls.

The peace you feel when you see each other face to face and have a casual conversation.

“(Hehe. I wish next week would come quickly.)”

My true feelings poured out without me knowing.

As soon as I brought up the subject, I flinched.

I was worried that he might be upset, but there was a happy smile on his face that was incomparable to mine.

“(Ha! Oh my god. Finally. The time has come.)”

“(I’m going to have two pizzas and beer that day.)”

“(I’m going to stay up all night playing games. And I’m going to wake up at 2pm.)”

“(Oh, then I’m at 3 o’clock.)”

I looked at my fellow actors with shining eyes.

‘You’re acting like kids who heard their parents were going on a trip.’

He said, shaking his head.

“(Then shall we start filming soon?)”

“(……Ha, when are you coming next week?)”

The eyes of my fellow actors were empty.

Are you all really like this?

***

“You worked hard today too, actor.”

“You too, brother.”

Finally, tomorrow was the day to board the plane to Korea.

“Have you finished packing?”

“Yes! I packed it all the day before yesterday.”

Let’s talk excitedly, Jinbae hyung smiled and patted me on the back.

“Then, quickly wash up and go to bed. Since your flight ticket is for tomorrow afternoon, you can take your time sleeping and waking up.”

“Okay. What should we do for dinner?”

“Actor, what do you want to eat―”

What interrupted the conversation was a vibration sound.

The source was the cell phone in Jinbae’s pocket.

My brother’s face frowned slightly as he checked the screen.

“Why? Who are you?”

“Team Leader Woo. I need to take a call for a moment.”

As soon as Jinbae pressed the button, a rough voice came out over the phone.

“Hello, yes? Oh, yes. She’s right next to you.”

Jinbae hyung lowered the volume of his phone while watching me.

Because of that, I couldn’t hear him very well, but I could hear his voice, which was unusual for Team Leader Woo, very excited.

“…?”

What is it? What’s going on?
