The Genius Actor Who Brings Misfortune (557) [Side Story]
“Yeonjae, are you ready?”
“Yeah. Sister, you too… … .”
I turned my head without thinking and then stopped for a moment.
When I opened my mouth slightly without realizing it, the other person frowned as if he was curious.
“Yeonjae? What’s wrong?”
Han Se-young, who had just changed her clothes, was approaching me.
I quickly opened my mouth as I looked at the person next to me.
“Ah… It’s nothing.”
“It’s a bit bland.”
I forced a smile and swallowed my cough.
‘hmm.’
Han Se-young was wearing clothes that were more revealing than usual.
I guess it’s because of the nature of the work being advertised today.
‘Well, I understand… .’
There was nothing I could do about the embarrassment.
‘I don’t know where to put my eyes.’
Putting aside his awkward thoughts, he smiled brightly at Han Se-young.
“I’m excited to be in front of the camera with my older sister after such a long time.”
“Hehehe, this little bastard. He speaks so nicely.”
Han Se-young raised the corners of her mouth.
Then he whispered quietly enough that the staff couldn’t hear.
“Be prepared. I’m going to pretend to kiss you by mistake in the middle. Okay? I’ll take our first kiss.”
It was a smile that matched the playful tone.
It was a far cry from the smile she always puts on in front of the cameras.
I couldn’t help but smile because I felt like he was really comfortable with me.
“Oh my, I always say things like that.”
“Huh? You really want me to do it?”
“haha.”
We were laughing for a long time over such a trivial story.
Han Se-young clapped her hands as if a sudden memory had occurred to her.
“That’s right. This is your first time doing a shoot like this, right? Or not? Have you done it before?”
“No. It’s my first time. So I’m a little nervous.”
I spoke honestly.
I’ve done photo shoots so many times that I’m sick of them, but it’s been a long time since I’ve felt this excited as I did today.
In fact, it had to be that way.
The brand that Han Se-young will be doing a photoshoot with today is….
“Okay! Seyoung, I’ll start first. We’ll start with the color product photos!”
“Please set up the cleansing products for Ms. Yeonjae in advance~!”
“Okay! Youngest, start by organizing the camera lines over there!”
It was a ‘cosmetics brand’.
I thought about it amidst the chaos of the frantic staff.
‘This is my first time seeing a cosmetics commercial.’
Cosmetics advertisements are usually produced targeting female customers.
Of course, it wasn’t just women who used cosmetics, and there were also many men’s products for male customers.
But the product I’m shooting today is targeted at female customers, not male customers.
Some people may ask why a male model is taking pictures of a product that women would use… .
‘We live in a world where even men advertise sanitary pads.’
The expansion of beauty and lifestyle product models aimed at women to include men has been a change that has occurred since a few years ago.
‘Hyung Jeong-Hyeon also did a commercial for menstrual pain medication last year.’
Getting a pharmaceutical company ad was as difficult as getting a bank ad.
What was more difficult was for a man to advertise menstrual pain medication.
‘As expected, it’s Junghyun hyung.’
This was possible because the celebrity had a solid public following.
In fact, after the advertisement was aired, many female customers expressed their satisfaction with the advertisement.
What did you say? You said that since I had to take the medicine anyway, it was like killing two birds with one stone by looking at him.
‘I hope I can become like Hyung Jeong-Hyeon someday.’
It was out of the question right now.
Of course, public recognition is similar for Hyung Jung and me, but it wasn’t just a matter of recognition.
‘It’s a problem of image rather than awareness.’
Actor Lee Jung-hyun has the most trustworthy image among all the male celebrities currently active.
The element I envied here was not ‘trustworthiness’.
The image I envied was that of a ‘male celebrity.’
‘……under.’
Yes, that’s right.
I wasn’t at the level where the public would consider me a ‘man’.
Of course, everyone knows that I’m male, but the problem is that they only know that fact.
‘Nobody thinks I’m an adult.’
Even though I’ve built up my physique.
Even though the works he has done so far have mostly been provocative and expensive works for child actors, this is still the case.
‘Of course, it’s only natural now that I’m twenty.’
Even if you’re greedy right now, nothing will change.
Even though I knew that, I honestly couldn’t help but feel frustrated.
I can drink now and join the military, so why can’t I still appeal as a ‘grown man’?
‘There won’t be any inconvenience in acting unless the image change is clear.’
The works that I’ve been offered are ones that are still unable to escape the shadows of child actors.
Team Leader Woo said there was no need to think about it urgently right now… .
‘There are so many things I want to do, what should I do?’
There were a lot of things I wanted to shoot right now.
But I couldn’t take on a reckless challenge just because I was impatient.
I knew that if I exposed my upper body, I would only get a strange sense of rejection, since I was no longer a child.
‘The company must have changed the product they were advertising because they knew this.’
The original commercial I was going to shoot was for underwear, not cosmetics.
However, the company immediately declined to appear in the show despite its high pay and novel plan, saying that it did not fit with their popular image.
That hurt my pride.
‘If I wanted to do it, I could do it.’
It’s not that I regret not being able to film just one underwear commercial.

It’s frustrating not being able to do something because of my ‘limitations’.
It was even worse because the black stone had been removed and there was nothing more that could be done.
“Seyoung, look straight ahead for a moment… Oh my, this feels so good! Good, good. Do that one more time!”
“Wow, it’s so pretty.”
“It’s really pretty. I’ll just raise the corners of my lips a little! Oh, I like it.”
Meanwhile, in the studio, the photographer’s joyful voice was echoing.
I could tell how happy the author was without even looking at his face.
‘… … I’m jealous.’
I looked at Han Se-young, who was taking pictures of the color products, with a gloomy look.
Perhaps to emphasize her flashy makeup, Han Se-young was wearing a tube top and a short skirt.
Anyone who looked at Han Se-young now would think she was an ‘adult woman’.
‘There’s only a two year age difference between us.’
As soon as Han Se-young turned twenty, she began to actively pursue acting as a female protagonist, not as a child actress.
Since I was young, I had been branding myself with a very mature image, and since I didn’t normally consume much image, it was appropriate for a change.
Compared to him, I am… .
‘Anyone can see that it’s cute.’
I’m not talking about what it looks like when you see it with your eyes.
It’s a bit embarrassing to say it myself, but when I looked in the mirror, I didn’t look too bad.
Right now, when I stood next to Han Se-young, I was confident that I wouldn’t look like a child.
However, I was not confident as ‘Lee Yeon-jae’, not as ‘the man next to Han Se-young’.
‘I guess it’s because it has the title Bambi.’
All this time, I’ve been acting like a spoiled brat under the cute nickname Bambi.
He also exposed Lee Eun-taek’s misdeeds through a live broadcast and also broadcasted how cute Han Ha-ram was.
It was good that it gave the public a sense of familiarity, but the problem was that it created an image that was much more childish than I had expected.
‘It’s all my brothers’ fault.’
Jeong-Hyeon pouted his lips as he thought of his older brothers, Hyung and Jin-Bae.
Yeah, I said I can do it.
I wonder if the problem arose when the images of my brothers, who took care of me even though they said it wasn’t necessary, were shown on camera.
‘It has to change now.’
In fact, there was a reason I wanted to join the military quickly because of the reasons listed above.
I already felt regretful when I thought about not being able to act properly for a year and a half… .
‘When you go and come back, you might take on a completely different character.’
Yeah. Maybe I could make a movie like “Late Night” that Hyung Jeong made.
Of course, even now, there is nothing you can’t do if you put your mind to it.
Because the company’s position is that I should do the work I want to do.
‘But we also have to consider Biyeon’s position.’
I know that too.
How Biyeon treats me like a newborn baby.
When I saw Biyeon looking at me with a face that seemed so precious that I wouldn’t mind putting it in my eyes, I felt a strange emotion.
I felt helpless from the outpouring of affection, but at the same time, I felt guilty.
‘I’m an adult who knows everything.’
How would Biyeon react if I told her that I wanted to make a movie like “Midnight”?
Are you going to curse me for being dirty? But that’s also a form of acting… .
“Yeonjae! We’re about to start filming!”
“Oh, yes!”
Oops.
As I was deep in thought, I came to my senses when I heard a staff member call me.
Now was not the time to be worrying about such things.
‘Let’s focus on the task at hand.’
After I finish my military service, I’ll either do an underwear commercial or a late-night show.
After making that pledge, I entered the filming set.
“Be careful not to get foam on your face! Would you like to sit down for now? Yes, yes. Like that~.”
Unlike Han Se-young, who took photos of color and overall makeup products alone, the product I took photos of alone was a facial cleanser.
I got into the bubble-filled bathtub, wearing a white T-shirt and shorts.
‘Don’t you think it would be a bit erotic if you took a picture in a bathtub?’
But the t-shirt I was wearing today was made of a material that wouldn’t show through no matter how wet it got.
Even his head wasn’t wet at all.
The references that the author showed me in advance also had a refreshing and lively feel.
‘Isn’t it too different from Han Se-young?’
Unlike Han Se-young’s photoshoot, which had a somewhat captivating feel, my photoshoot was focused on giving off the feeling of a laughing child.
‘what’s this.’
It’s definitely rated 12+.
I held back my grumbling and kept smiling.
Because I’ve done so many photo shoots, I was able to get the expressions I wanted without having to resort to method acting.
“That was great. Wow, this is done in one go. You two are both advertising geniuses, geniuses. Thanks to you, there is no delay at all.”
“Haha, thank you.”
“I’m not just saying this, it’s true. I hope we get another chance to film together, not just today, but next time.”
The photographer gave a thumbs up, saying it was his first time doing a shoot like this.
After the solo filming was over, like roasting beans in a lightning fire, the joint filming with Han Se-young finally began.
The product we were going to take a picture of together was a ‘night routine’ product that you apply before going to bed.
Han Se-young came with her heavy makeup removed and her face almost bare, and I also took a shower again to remove the foam from the previous shoot.
‘You look like a couple when you wear these clothes.’
Han Se-young and I sat on a sofa with several blankets on it, wearing couple-look pajamas.
Han Se-young looked slightly more slumped than before, perhaps due to fatigue from the continuous filming.
‘hmm.’
It’ll be hard to get back in there and shoot in that condition.
I wanted to tell her to cheer up, but I was worried that Han Se-young would feel embarrassed if I said it out loud in front of people.
‘I wonder if it would get better if I whispered in your ear.’
As soon as the staff members who were doing my hair stepped back, I leaned toward Han Se-young.
It was to whisper in Han Se-young’s ear to cheer her on.
That was when.
At exactly the same time, Han Se-young turned her head… .
-side.
Just then, our lips touched.
“… … .”
“… … .”
The filming set was instantly filled with silence.
