A Genius Actor Who Brings Misfortune - Chapter 525

The genius actor who brings misfortune (525)
‘It’s unfair.’
I tried so hard to keep the promise I made to Hyung Jeong.
‘Is it an easy task to convince Director Yoon?’
Originally, Spider-Man was going to have a more definitive ending than he has now.
After Choi Sung-in visits the prison, there are scenes of a guard on patrol discovering something and screaming, and a bed covered in blood.
There was a scene where it was clearly stated that Spider was dead.
This was a scene that was greatly influenced by Director Yoon.
Because Director Yoon tends to like tragic and miserable endings.
The original ending of the movie ‘Twins’ was also for Lee Jin-woo and Kang Tae-il to drown and die.
‘I suggested changing it back then too.’
Thanks to Director Yoon agreeing with my opinion, Twins became an open ending.
This time it was the same.
I begged Director Yoon earnestly that he should, no, that he should cut out the tragic scene.
‘Because I have to keep the promise I made to Hyung Jeong-Hyeon.’
So it ended with the sound of four gunshots in the darkness.
‘It’s so unfair to call this a death sentence.’
But no one agreed with me.
Reporter Kim Yeon-doo, In-jun hyung, Nam In-hu, and even Jin-bae hyung.
“Actor, are you still upset?”
“… … .”
I pout at the words I hear from behind me.
I didn’t want to answer, but it seemed so childish, so I opened my mouth.
“I’m not upset. I’m just a little upset.”
“People call it crooked.”
Oh, me.
‘You really don’t say a word.’
When I rolled my eyes, Jinbae hyung laughed quietly.
“Do you not like what I said that much?”
“Jeong-Hyeon said that if he saw the movie, he would run away from home again. How can you like that?”
“Aren’t you upset because you couldn’t tell actor Jung Hyun that he wouldn’t do that?”
“… …Brother, you’ve changed recently.”
Jinbae noticed my sad expression and came over with a smile.
“Don’t worry. If you run away, I’ll bring you back.”
“Haa… Should I really run away?”
“I guess so.”
“There wasn’t a death scene?”
“Just because there’s no death scene doesn’t mean he’s not dead.”
Ha, that’s difficult.
‘Isn’t it too tight?’
Of course, I knew that Jinbae was right.
Still, I asked desperately, wanting to deny it as much as possible.
“Why don’t you just think of it as shooting a gun at a wall? Then it wouldn’t be sad.”
“If you say that, he’ll get even angrier.”
“… … I guess I’ll just have to get on my knees and beg.”
“Yes. I think that would be best.”
I was depressed.
Then a large hand touched my back.
Jinbae hyung patted my back and whispered.
“Instead, I will kneel with you, actor.”
There was laughter in his low voice.
When I asked if it was that fun, the reply I got was that it was too obvious. Wow, that’s annoying.

[Column] Lee Yeon-jae and Yoon Kang-yeon’s second work ‘Spider’, review after seeing it at Cannes
Last Saturday, the premiere of ‘Spider’ took place at the Lumiere Theater. People were trying their best to get into the theater. The screening was so hot that it could be said to be the highlight of the Cannes Film Festival. Naturally, the center of that attention was Lee Yeon-jae.
Lee Yeon-jae (18 years old) has now grown into an actor who receives love calls not only from Korea but also from all over the world. Considering that his first film with director Yoon Kang-yeon, ‘Twins’, was his first film, he has shown tremendous growth over the past four years. Director Yoon has also shown directing that has surpassed his own limitations. ‘Spider’ is a film that feels more intense and deeper than ‘Twins’.
This is how I interpret it. If the emotion that is generally embedded in ‘Twins’ is helplessness, the emotion embedded in ‘Spider’ is madness. It does not stop at the desire to conquer others, but artistically deals with the intense emotion of wanting to destroy oneself. The acting of the three actors Lee Yeon-jae, Nam In-hu, and Choi In-jun finally completed a burning piece.
Meanwhile, Nam In-hu has a history of playing a faceless actor in ‘Twins’. In this movie, Lee Yeon-jae played both Lee Jin-woo and Kang Tae-il, in keeping with the setting of twins in the play. The one who played the opposite role each time was Nam In-hu. Choi In-jun is the most famous Bi-yeon (Lee Yeon-jae’s fan club name) in the entertainment industry. He confessed that through this movie, he fell in love with Bambi (Lee Yeon-jae’s nickname) and actress Lee Yeon-jae at the same time.
Also, the director Yoon Kang-yeon I met four years ago and the director Yoon Kang-yeon I saw last week seemed like completely different people. He said, “A director cannot exist without an actor, and an actor cannot exist without a director,” and emphasized that this movie was possible because of Lee Yeon-jae, Nam In-hu, and Choi In-jun. It was the first time in 29 years since his directorial debut that he broke away from his mystical image and gave an interview in a relaxed and open manner. At this point, I have this thought.
How great is the power of an actor? How great is it that he can make one person into another person and love two people at the same time? Director Yoon Kang-yeon, Nam In-hu, and Choi In-jun played important roles, but the main character who leads this movie to flames is definitely Lee Yeon-jae. How will he change you? Can you become someone other than yourself and love two people at the same time? There is a way to confirm your ending. It is to watch ‘Spider’, which is opening in Korea soon. I look forward to seeing how he will change you.

Time passed and the closing ceremony approached.
That means it’s time to announce the award winners chosen by the Cannes Film Festival jury.
We walked the red carpet in sharp suits just like the first day.
Injun smiled and waved his hand leisurely, just like he did on the first day, and Nam Inhu also raised the corners of his mouth, as if his tension had finally eased.
‘Good.’
It was much better for the four of us to be there than just the two of us, Director Yoon.
I smiled brightly at the thought that I would soon be returning to Korea.
‘I want to get on a plane soon.’
As soon as I get home, I’m going to hug Han Haram and take a nap.
Oh, and before that, don’t forget to kneel before Hyung Jeong.
I was humming to myself as I busily planned things out in my head.
‘Our home, our home.’
I want to go soon, ugh.
“(The following is the Jury Prize. The festival’s jury selects and awards the winners and award recipients from among the films that entered the competition section.)”
The people on stage continued giving long speeches.
No matter what they said, all I had on my mind was my home.
“(Then I will announce it. The judges’ award is….)”
But when I heard the following, I couldn’t help but be surprised.

“(Spider, Nam In-hu.)”
wow.
When I turned my head, I saw Nam In-hu with a bewildered expression.
“Huh?”
The presenter had a look on his face as if he couldn’t understand why his name was mentioned in an accent that was neither French nor English.
I woke him up without even understanding the situation, let alone being happy.
“Congratulations, bro.”
“Huh? What, what?”
“Congratulations. Go up quickly.”
“Me? Why? What are you—”
“I have to go get my award. But before that, give me a hug and go.”
He smiled and hugged Nam In-hu.
Nam In-hu instinctively patted my back and then went up on stage with a bewildered expression.
An interpreter quickly stood beside him.
Nam In-hu, who stood in front of the microphone, was unable to say anything for a long time.
“Uh, me… why… no, how is this happening…”
He looked around anxiously, like a lost dog.
The smiles seen on the red carpet earlier were nowhere to be found, and all that was visible was a very timid look.
“Brother In-Hyung, you’re the best!”
“Our throat is awesome!”
I cheered with Injun hyung.
I hope Nam In-hu enjoys this moment as much as possible.
‘Amazing, amazing.’
I remember Nam In-hu, who half-cried and expressed his distress, saying that it didn’t matter that his face didn’t appear in the movie when he was in Twins.
That’s why Nam In-hu, standing on stage now, looked even cooler.
A person who worked hard until the end and eventually proved his worth.
‘It’s possible for an actor to win the Judges’ Award.’
I thought the winner of the jury award was usually a director.
Of course, I heard that there are cases where actors appear on the show.
‘As expected, Director Yoon has a wide reach.’
Last night, Director Yoon tipped me off, saying, “I heard Inhu is being mentioned a lot as a candidate.”
The judges applauded after learning the behind-the-scenes story that Nam In-hoo played the faceless lead role in his previous work, ‘Twins.’
I would have liked to give him the Best Actor Award, but since the role was too ambiguous to be called a leading role, it seemed like they gave him the Jury Prize instead.
‘That’s great, Nam In-hu.’
I clapped my hands hard, wishing I had two more hands.
I looked at Nam In-hu, who was giving his acceptance speech with tears in his eyes that had turned red.
“My mom and dad. Thank you so much. And… .”
Then our eyes met.
As soon as Nam In-hu met my eyes, his face became tearful.
“Huh….”
Hey, don’t cry.
‘Speak more at that time!’
I can’t speak because there’s a camera. It’s driving me crazy.
As I was internally stomping my feet, I heard the following words.
“I… want to say thank you so much to Yeonjae.”
Nam In-hu, who had barely managed to swallow his tears, continued speaking intermittently.
“When Yeonjae won the Best Actor Award at the Cannes Film Festival last time, I congratulated him and he said let’s go together next time.”
The interpreter was busy translating his words.
“I said yes, but I thought it was ridiculous. Honestly, who wouldn’t do that? But Yeonjae… Haa, Yeonjae Lee is really crazy, no, she’s a strange person.”
What the heck?
The camera came closer to me.
I made an expression that seemed to be slyly glaring at Nam In-hu.
“haha!”
While everyone was bursting into light laughter, Nam In-hu was the only one holding back tears.
He said.
“But Lee Yeon-jae was right. If you had told me four years ago that I would be at the Cannes Film Festival and even stand on stage to receive this moving trophy… I wouldn’t have believed it.”
Nam In-hu lifted the trophy with trembling hands.
“I will do my best to become a great actor in the future. Thank you!”
He bowed and was met with applause.
Whether the camera was on me or not, I too smiled and clapped.
‘That’s amazing.’
Nam In-hu’s acting as Choi Seong-in was excellent.
It was immediately understandable why he was given the judges’ award.
Seeing him happy and getting what he deserved made me feel good too.
‘He really is on a winning streak.’
Director Yoon was right.
Sometimes he seems like a strange person, but his batting average is always good.
“Hey, how am I? Did I speak well? Did I say anything wrong?”
At that moment, Nam In-hu, who had just received the award and come down, came running up to me, out of breath.
“Yes.”
“Huh! What? What did I do wrong??”
“They called me crazy.”
“Oh, that’s not a mistake, that’s my true intention.”
This kid, for real.
It was about the time when I lightly tapped his back.
“(Then I will announce. The winner of the Best Screenplay Award at this year’s Cannes Film Festival is…)”
The host opened his mouth with a bright face.
The words that followed were ones I had been hearing for the past few months.
“(Congratulations, Spider!)”
uh?
