The King of Dying Smoke Episode 138

Kimchi Ending (14)

“Spring.”

-why.

“I think I lived my life a little bit wrong.”

-… ?

A rustling sound was heard beyond the phone speaker. It seemed like he was checking to see if the person on the other end of the phone was him.

‘I guess so.’

Yu Jiyu leaned back against the head of the bed and sighed softly.

If Seo Bom had called me and said something like this, I think I would have checked to see if my phone was hacked.

Seo Bom looked at her cell phone for a while, rustling it around, tapping it, and finally making a clattering sound to indicate what she was doing.

And then I heard a voice again.

-sorry. I don’t have much money.

“Do not lie! And it’s not voice phishing!”

-One of my acquaintances is actor Yoo Ji-yu, and he is very rich. Would you like me to connect you?

“What can I do by connecting me?”

Yoo Ji-yu, who had been fuming for a while, soon became even more depressed.

It has been five years since I entered the entertainment industry. Of course, she met a lot of people along the way.

Among them, the only person I can tell my true feelings to is that spanner. Is there any other life like this in the world?

Seo Bom seemed to have finally convinced herself that it was not voice phishing, and changed her tone to a more serious tone.

-So, what’s going on?

“It’s just that life is a bit like that.”

Yoo Ji-yu lay down on the bed.

I looked up at the ceiling blankly.

The red light of the blinking fire alarm blinked slowly.

“No, maybe it’s just me… .”

In fact, originally I would not have contacted Seo Bom. Yujiyu may not be very trustworthy, but she always had someone who would be by her side.

No, until just a few days ago, Yoo Ji-yu was complaining to her.

But now—

-Is this related to the fact that your manager changed some time ago?

“You’ve always been very observant in strange places.”

-Because I lived in a place where if I didn’t have it, it would be taken away.

“What do you mean?”

As he said, Yoo Ji-yu’s manager Seonyul secretly left the company a week ago.

It was literally after the handover was completed without showing any signs. Yoo Ji-yu only accepted the result while being devastated.

Of course, I was angry at first. I wondered what on earth they thought of themselves to be like this.

However, after a while of gathering information, I couldn’t help but feel guilty again.

“… “Yul, I heard you’ve been ostracized at work.”

-The reason is?

“I don’t know. “I just heard that I saw the cleaning person not dealing with anyone properly and avoiding them.”

-okay.

“I never thought there would be bullying because they were all nice people… “Maybe it’s me.”

It wasn’t really.

It was just a rumor that Director Lim Jeong-bae spread early on as a death echo, so everyone avoided it as if they were seeing something scary.

Regardless of your way of thinking, isn’t it inevitable that you will have an instinctive fear in someone who is making recordings of everything from private conversations to company dinners?

There were two bullet holes and three recorders.

“Yul, you were always crying because you didn’t have enough money… The pay was that low… .”

This is just because I buy a lot of games whenever Seonyul has a Steam sale.

“You must be broke by now because you don’t have money to pay rent… .”

Salary has tripled.

“No matter how many times I call, no answer… I guess you fell out of love with this floor… .”

I was just scared because I didn’t want to be called a traitor.

However, Yoo Ji-yu could not know this situation and naturally suffered from guilt.

How extravagant it must have been for the actor in charge to worry that such a melody would make acting difficult– Yu Ji-yu ended up burying his head in his knees.

-hmm.

But why?

Normally, Seo Bom would say, ‘What do you need to know?’ and was silent for a moment.

She seemed to ponder for a moment. There was a distinctive sound of a spanner being tapped.

However, he soon opened his mouth as if he had made a decision.

-Yujiyu.

“huh?”

-It was repaid. They say the article will be out tomorrow anyway. It may not be what I wanted.

“?”

-Look at your phone.

As usual, while Yoo Ji-yu was thinking, ‘What is this crazy bitch talking about?’, the phone suddenly hung up.

And then the message arrived.

In the message box, there was a photo that clearly appeared to have been taken secretly.

“… … .”

Crazy bitch, now you’re even asking me to take voyeurs– the thought disappeared in an instant.

There were three people in the photo.

A hot foreign actor rumored to be visiting Korea these days,

and Aislin Lewis.

In the photo, Seonyoul was half-prostrate towards the two and grinning humbly.

“… … .”

The expression slowly disappeared from Yu Ji-yu’s face.

* * *

“I can’t believe it, Miss Sun!”

The truth of the photo was insignificant.

… No, it was actually a major situation, but the victim was a little different.

Penelope, who became Seonyoul’s new employer, naturally ordered him to start work as soon as possible, but Seonyoul hesitated for some reason. Then, to be careful, they said it would be okay to start after .

When Penelope, who found it suspicious, questioned him, Seonyul finally revealed the truth.

Penelope flagged down on the spot.

“Believe… I can’t believe it! You didn’t even explain the situation to your previous actor?! “Isn’t this the basics of being a business person?!”

“Well, the atmosphere in the company… It was a bit difficult to talk… .”

“It’s something that needs to be said!”

“that… Yes?”

“holy mackerel… !”

Penelope barely suppressed the urge to curse.

Is this right?

Is this really such a great talent?

Penelope, tired of thinking, waved her hand in disdain. Seon-yul bowed down to him in a groveling manner – “What are you doing!” “Well, as an apology” “Who told you to do that! “Let’s go!” – He quickly ran away.

Penelope, who was holding her head, barely came to her senses when her friend who was present took a glance.

“Are you okay, Penny?”

“Oh, of course! I’m sorry, Acey. For making me listen to useless talk during a countermeasures meeting. “Let’s finish our meeting!”

“… “If it’s urgent, I think we can do it later.”

“What are you talking about! In the name of her maternal grandmother, I will somehow make an example of that damn man!”

“… … .”

Aislin didn’t have any expectations at this point, but she just remained silent.

To be precise, I wanted to say something, but I didn’t think it would make sense to those half-glazed eyes.

In fact, Penelope was feeling that even her pride was slowly being crushed.

‘What on earth is that person…? !’

She gritted her teeth reluctantly.

‘There are degrees of insanity… !’

To sum up, Kang Min doesn’t work even when he subtly sets the mood, and his eye smiles and overt signals don’t work at all, but for some reason he can talk passionately about or for an hour – and they are all melodrama movies – and he doesn’t die. My life’s goal was to retire from acting.

Even Penelope, who had seen countless people, had never seen or heard of such a madman.

Even in such a situation, aren’t his eyes and skills almost at the level of a mature actor?

“how… Why on earth do you choose to do such an insane thing with such skills and eyes? !”

Penelope looked like she was going to turn away.

“Why on earth, Acey! “Why!”

“How do I know… .”

“You should know! “He’s going to be your boyfriend!”

“… … .”

Sometimes, the feeling of self-destruction I felt when I got lost in a conversation and came to my senses was indescribable, and it turned into anger again.

Again, at this point it was a matter of pride.

“Anyway, I heard about the last episode. “The lighter gets a puncture and we end up with a scripting meeting?”

“Oh, yes, but… .”

“Then this is your chance!”

“What a chance… .”

“This is the last time! “You should try something!”

“… … .”

Aislin sighed again, but that was it.

At first, it was supposed to be a simple cameo appearance, but things went wrong and the response was good, so I ended up staying for nearly three weeks.

But it slowly reached its limit. I guess I have no choice but to leave the country sometime next week.

If you think about it, even for Aislin, who often did odd things, it was a crazy thing she would never do again in her life… .

“It’s your first love, Acey! Can I let it go like this? My first love as a teenager is still a good memory! I recently heard that the weed that I used to smoke for fun ended up containing fentanyl… “But it’s nice to have it!”

“Do you want to persuade me?”

“What I mean is, some experiences are worth having, even if you regret them!”

“… … .”

Aislin couldn’t help but remain silent for a moment. Penelope, who was pretending to be cheerful, closed her mouth because it seemed clear that she was thinking of one person.

Penelope, who had always happily changed men, stopped going to parties she loved for several years after meeting Joseph. After he received the engagement ring, he became a completely different person.

After Joseph’s death, he was absent for several months, but suddenly appeared and asked, “Who wants to leave me to die?” I grumbled and went back to my old ways, but well, that self-proclaimed love affair never lasted more than a few days.

Penelope’s words had their own weight.

“… Okay, I’ll give it a try.”

“Good idea!”

Aislin looked at her friend’s face, which had regained its smile, and sighed again.

She clenched her chin and asked.

“So, what should I do?”

“If you think about it, I think we’ve been choosing too indirect methods so far!”

“Indirect means?”

I didn’t even know they said that these days when I wore a velvet-style sleeveless dress and smiled.

It was a scary world.

“Hmm, that’s not it… “You learn the river in the first place!”

“I’m not a singer.”

“okay! So we were thinking wrong! If you want to seduce an actor in the first place, you have to show acting that will make the actor fall in love with you at first sight!”

“So, how on earth can you…?” .”

“It’s simple! “All we have to do is see who wins at the end!”

Penelope slammed the table.

It was a triumphant laugh.

“First things first!”

“huh.”

“For now, don’t think about what’s going on, just have fun beating him up, that actor you think is Yuyuji!”

“… … .”

* * *

Two days after everyone’s plans had passed, the final day of filming for dawned.

The production crew’s expressions were not very good.

Even the cinematographer and lighting director clearly looked prepared for a long-term battle, and those involved in the script itself, including the scripter, had extremely serious expressions.

Author Yoo Ji-min, a sinner, shrugged his shoulders and lowered his head.

“I-I’m sorry… I wonder if I can stay here… .”

“Never mind. “As long as the script is questionable, it would be better for the writer to hold on.”

“… … yes.”

“Keuhum, the PD told me not to be too picky! Writer Yoo, after listening to other people, it was great that a new writer made it to the end without going through a puncture! ”

“There’s no law that says that’s what everyone does.”

“Producer Han, a little… .”

First, we decided on a story by gathering opinions through a meeting, and the writer also agreed. Thanks to that, I got a copy of the page.

However, the author himself is suspicious, so there is no way the production team can be sure. The idea was to take a picture first and then think about it later.

Producer Han Ye-seul sighed and summoned the staff.

“What’s really important today are two scenes. One is that Hyeyeon ends up stabbing her sister to death and then goes on to seek out her revenge targets. It has to be directed very nihilistically, and the scene has to be done at an angle. “The second movement of Schubert’s ‘Death and the Maiden’ will be used as background music.”

She slowly explained her thoughts.

The slowness of G minor in the beginning. The 3-minute flow shows Hyeyeon walking at a leisurely pace.

After heightening the tension to the limit, the song changes to major key.

And the slaughter begins.

[How did you… !]

[Obviously dead… Wow!]

[Aaaah!]

Blood splatters and screams emanate with pizzicato variations.

This further heightens the mood as the variation heightens. As the cello exerts its power, the catharsis of revenge and sense of futility, which were topics running through the play, become stronger at the same time.

Rainfall is available, but there is no need to use it strongly. It is enough just to follow the melody.

“The next most important thing, of course, is the ghost watching it.”

blood.

scream.

Revenge─

All of that comes to pass, and at the same time as the first violin comes to the fore again, the ghost appears.

He smiles and looks at the whole scene with a glass of wine.

The third movement appears while gently covering up the bloodshed─

As the explanation continues, the staff members’ faces straighten.

“… Are you okay?”

“Sounds good!”

“I was worried about this, but I thought it would work out somehow?”

The more the staff members listened to Han Ye-seul’s explanation, the brighter their faces became and they looked relieved. Indeed, it is said that an excellent PD can cover even situations where there is no answer.

Even Lloyd Gonzales is a little surprised. His mind is already depicting the scene written in the script through a virtual camera.

It’s not bad.

No, in a situation where even the script has no center, it can be said to be a player.

Even Yoo Ji-yu’s newly assigned manager seemed relieved.

“Whew, that’s a relief! I wondered what would happen and it would end well. A soft landing would be the best, but do you think you can protect it? Please read the script carefully.”

“… … .”

“… Yu Ji-yu?”

“… “I’ll be back for a bit.”

“uh? uh? Where?”

However, while everyone was relieved, only two people were exceptions.

Yoo Ji-yu glanced at the script and put it away. Then he walked briskly.

The manager, who had followed reflexively, suddenly became out of breath and backed away.

Aislin Lewis was there.

She frowned blatantly.

“? “What is it?”

“Mr. Lewis.”

A person who would normally tremble and avoid eye contact.

But don’t avoid Yujiyu.

I grit my teeth again and shoot quietly.

“First of all, thank you. “Because you did something for me that I couldn’t pay attention to.”

“uh. yes?”

“But, if you took me, I don’t think you should treat me like that.”

“… ?”

Of course, from Aislin’s point of view, it sounded like bullshit.

However, Yoo Ji-yu’s mood was so violent, and Aislin was not good enough to resolve the misunderstanding about what was going on.

Even today’s goal is set.

After thinking for a moment, Aislin gave up her thoughts.

In other words, he just snorted softly and crossed his legs.

“So, what?”

“… … .”

Moment,

Those around the two actors held their breath slightly.

It was the calm before the storm.

* * *

And what,

What was the culprit doing that brought the situation to this point?

‘As expected, it’s already a great feeling! Isn’t that right, old man?’

-… … .

I was admiring it.

‘I guess it’s my job to somehow save that thing. I’ll have to cheer up. Please help me a lot too!’

-Goddess… What crime have I committed… .

Anyway, it was the calm before the storm.
