Lord Of Dying Smoke - Chapter 140

The King of Dying Smoke Episode 140

Interlude Masterpiece and Last Companion (1)

landed overseas through the mediation of the American CBC right after the final episode was aired.

Unless you leverage the power of a streaming service such as Webflix or paranoidly sign a contract with a VOD service around the world like Actors Studio, time differences are bound to occur anyway. In that case, it would be better to just release the complete story in one go—that was roughly the intention.

However, unlike such an ambitious plan, the reaction of American netizens was sour.

That’s because there was no news at all after the incident caused by a certain YouTube video.

-This work has finally landed 🙁

-? Isn’t that William White?

└True

└William ‘Kangmin’ White

-You’ve seen the series ‘Amazing Actors and Incredibly Stupid Broadcasters’… It taught me a lesson that no matter how good an actor is, if there is no answer from the higher-ups, there is no way to do anything.

-Based on my experience with , Kang is comparable to AC Milan’s Patuna and Kaka!

└Because he is the head of the household ;(

-Well, I don’t know because I haven’t watched it, but sometimes there are reviews that aren’t bad… .

-You said Aislin Lewis participated? Maybe it’s not that bad?

Even those who were cautious in the minority quickly gave up on SHIELD in the early stages of the development.

‘Kwaaaaaaaaaa!’ ‘Aaaaaaaah!’ It was only natural, as there was a time in Korea when the story was met with unanswerable evaluations for its unconventional development.

Netizens became even more upset.

-You’re dying.

-I keep dying… .

-Oh, Korean comedy is difficult 🙁

-That will be difficult too.

-The action is good, but… .

-The river and the fencing man are soul partners. The river said it wanted to stay with him forever.

-I saw it too! In an interview after the show ended, the fencer cried after hearing that. It was very touching

– Is this a consideration for you to find inspiration there instead of this show?

But well, it didn’t last long.

Before long, one scene turned the entire premise on its head.

[■■■■, ■■■?]

[■■ ■■. ■■■.]

[■■, ■■■!!]

[■■■■.]

[what! What language are you guys using!!]

The thread entered a lull for a moment.

All reactions stopped for a moment.

And soon, the writing started pouring in as if it had never stopped.

-?

-??????

-what? Does it look like a ghost to other people?

-Is the heroine dead?!

-Actually, it was !

-Suddenly the river looks very evil… .

-Actually evil, my friend!

-Damn it, MBS turned the doctor into Hitler!

After that, what?

It was literally a roller coaster ride that made the entire thread seem like it was manic-depressive.

People instantly became absorbed in the drama as if they had never complained before.

[…] What do you know?]

[Hmm, I don’t know. How about one more sandwich?]

[…] … .]

-The female protagonist is feeling out of place.

-I don’t know the ghost’s intentions.

-Maybe you’re purely trying to help?

-Oh, the pure feeling of helping is very important… The fencer’s head has been blown off 14 times so far.

-The fencing man just doesn’t want to help 🙁

-Honestly, I’m the unlucky guy here!

[Aaaaa!!]

[Stop, stop! It’s broken! It’s broken!]

[Save me, save me!]

[Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh … !!]

-Those guys who just said Detective Man was unlucky???

-A fencing man is a man! He’s searching for the truth, risking terrible pain just by receiving a request!

-Harry Gordon also appeared. The chemistry between the two detectives is pretty good.

-What does calling Gordon ‘sheep’ mean? What is the ‘Heungsinso’ that calls fencing men?

-Yankee and Gang

-It’s hardboiled. Aren’t you okay with the two of you being the main characters now?

-The ghost is slitting the protagonists’ throats again 🙁

[If that doesn’t happen in the end, how do you think people will end up? What do you think they will say, what emotions they will wallow in, and what resentments they will express?]

[You will probably resent it even more. You will die in that resentment. Without getting anything.]

[Isn’t it really, really a great tragedy… !]

-… … .

-Oh God…

-Uh, I think so. I think Hitler found a very good teacher.

-Diablo too.

-That’s stupid. The lizard has already fled to the hell forge and is shaking

-Don’t you think Gordon is actually scared?

-If the river flashes before my eyes with that face, so will I… .

-It’s the climax. There won’t be a more scary scene than this!

Emotions gradually rose as the evaluation was not that bad.

And, after episode 10, the ghost revealed its true colors and finally exploded.

[What would you like to do if you go back to that time?]

[…] I will kill you.]

-AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

-NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

-OMG

-What’s the scariest scene? What?!

-The hero is brainwashing the heroine!!

-priest… The bride from Ecuador… !

-Calm down, you idiots. This is a Korean drama. I swear with everything, there’s no way he’d actually stab me with a knife.

-I stabbed you, you cheater!!

-?

-You’re sobbing, you little frog!

-That bastard must be Bosch!

-Oh God!

[Put on the full armor of God so that you can withstand the devil’s tricks! Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the rulers of this world of darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places!]

[…] … .]

[Hye-yeon, do you trust me?]

[…] yes.]

[Then don’t doubt it.]

[…] … yes.]

-AND SHE’S FUCKING SMILING!!

-GYAAAAAAAAAAAA!!

-bloody yank! I thought you were the good guy!

-WADU HEK!!!

-CONTACCCCT!!!!

The bulletin board, which was shocked by the ghost’s whispers and the depravity of a human being, became so crowded that the text was barely legible when it came to the fight between the two sisters.

A background filled with wet water mist,

Dim sunlight─

The scene where they were rolling around in the mud, covered in dirt, and running around like animals was so true and cruel that it made you scream.

… It was natural because both of them were sincere.

Internet trend figures started to jump like crazy.

The thread that exploded drove the subreddit’s ranking like crazy, and as a result, people began to flow in.

Some impatient people started their business by making ‘Jal’ pictures, and their power continued to increase.

But strangely enough, at some point it all stopped.

–

–

–

-?

-… ?

-What is it, friends? Why are you quiet?

After a desperate struggle, the moment the younger brother stabs the older sister to death, the camera somehow closes up the ghost.

People try to get angry and ask, but even that feeling disappears in an instant.

A gentle smile that makes you think that if you take just one scene and submit it to a contest with a title like , you might get selected.

The ghost was looking at the scene in front of it with that face.

By analogy, a saint who received 16 clear revelations about the Passion of Christ. He was looking lovingly at the person who was stabbing his flesh and blood.

Everything was infinitely gentle and sacred.

And, for that reason, it was even more terrifying.

-What is it?

-Where has everyone gone?

-friends… ?

While those who were not in a position to watch the video were confused, there was a long silence on the bulletin board.

And after a few minutes, it burst out.

-――!

-― ――?!

-――…

-―――!!

* * *

“Nothing is right… !”

Meanwhile, at the same time, PD Han Ye-seul, a common sense person, was closing his eyes tightly with his head on the bedside.

Somehow, I succeeded in finishing the show without showing any signs of it. But now, Han Ye-seul’s inner thoughts were so twisted that they were on the verge of turning over.

That’s because, in the ending of , not a single thing went back to Han Ye-seul’s calculations.

“Min-i is, well, that kind of person, so of course she was in the calculation.”

but.

“What’s this! The writer goes crazy, the actresses behave as they want, and the director doesn’t go as planned! “It’s a mess!!”

Even near the end, it didn’t end as the writer or the producer thought.

According to the original plan, the main character in the last episode should have been Hyeyeon.

After lightly stabbing her sister to death, stabbing to death the family members who are screaming and lying down, and accumulating blood upon blood, the heroine tilts her head… So why am I doing this? do.

The doll-like appearance is emphasized, and at the same time, the title is reclaimed to mean . It’s truly a perfect plan.

… But it was all ruined.

First of all, the fight between the two actresses was so brutal.

And, while watching it, Kangmin’s ad-lib, nodding his head as if to say ‘everything has come back right’, was so perfect.

Everyone on the production team was dumbfounded and then excited.

-I can’t not use these scenes, Producer Han!

-That’s right!

-that… … .

-We have to save it somehow!

-Well, as a writer, I feel the same way! Here is a hastily completed script─

-Leave it to me, PD Han! I will pick out something incomparable, such as !

-… … .

Han Ye-seul, who had a vague idea of ​​the truth, was shocked, but there was no way for the writer to go on a rampage.

Therefore, the center of the last episode ended up being a strange ending in which the ghost warmly watched Hye-yeon as she was repeatedly massacred, applauded, and then left.

It had to be that way in order to save all those scenes.

but… .

“What is this ending? “It has no meaning or anything!”

Han Ye-seul hit her head and cried.

“What is the ending of Hye-yeon, who tore up and killed her entire family, and sets off to find her next revenge partner? “Nothing has been concluded!”

“Kimchi ended up getting trampled and was never even used! In the end, it wasn’t clear what the ghost thought of Hyeyeon! “The ending is just leaving as if satisfied!”

“It’s a mess!”

Han Ye-seul’s body, which had been fussing for a while, soon became limp.

It’s over.

The ratings may have been maintained somehow due to topicality alone, but once the conclusion is reached, critics will start pouring out negative reviews.

The ending was already in sight.

‘Still, it’s the PD’s job to endure it.’

A leader must be heavy– Han Ye-seul gritted her teeth as she recalled a recent quote.

And sure enough, as if I had been waiting, my cell phone started ringing.

It was Director Kim Kang-hyeon.

‘It’s better to sell first.’

Han Ye-seul, who hesitated, let out a long sigh and picked up the receiver.

“… “Yes, this is Han Ye-seul.”

-What on earth have you done, PD Han!!

Han Ye-seul closed her eyes tightly as the shouts poured out.

My mouth stuttered to somehow come up with an excuse.

“Well, well, that is… .”

-There is no need to say more! You already know!

“… … yes.”

Han Ye-seul quietly lowered her head.

If I think about it, I was familiar with reprimands thanks to my days at KBC. Rather, isn’t it like a miracle that nothing has happened before?

Han Ye-seul sighed softly and lowered her head.

But what soon came back was an excited voice with a slightly different meaning.

-oh my god! Even though you made this plan, you didn’t even tell me, the director! Isn’t that too much, PD Han?

“… yes?”

-Oh, of course I should have said the opposite at first! But I guess you could have told me when I got halfway! What an incredible response! I’ve never even imagined it!

“?”

-Good job! It’s all thanks to you! Please continue to look after me, hahaha!

what.

What on earth is this bald guy talking about?

Does that mean the response is good now?

No, before that, did you just say that you would take good care of me ‘in the future’?

Han Ye-seul blinked and the bald director laughed loudly.

This inexplicable situation that had been going on for a while soon came to an end.

That’s because the director, who could barely stop laughing, spewed out such loud bullshit.

-Yes, PD Han. Let me ask you one thing.

“yes… .”

-When will the planned Season 2 start?

“… … .”

Han Ye-seul blinked.

It blinked for a very long time.

And then it exploded.

“What nonsense is that!!!!”

Of course it was bullshit.

However, this bullshit ended up creating a butterfly effect that no one could have imagined before Han Ye-seul could pick it up.

* * *

At the same time,

The main characters of the Butterfly Effect, Penelope Olsen and CEO Jaylen, were looking at each other and sighing for a long time.

“… “This is causing trouble.”

“So, that’s right. “I never thought you would think like this.”

Penelope looked at Kangmin on the screen.

The ghost applauds repeatedly when he sees that Hye-yeon has finally become a perfect piece of work. When she finally gets her revenge, she sheds tears of emotion and watches her steps seriously.

And, when the ending ends with Hye-yeon starting to look for another ‘object of revenge’, he stands up as if satisfied. Like an audience feeling relieved after a movie is over.

And disappears.

A lukewarm ending that contrasts with the perfect directing.

The departed ghost and Hyeyeon may or may not be reunited.

If those who can make it this far end up with such a lukewarm ending, there is only one thing they can aim for.

Penelope sighed again.

“From the beginning, this show was intended to be a series.”

“I guess so.”

“Mr. Robber, of course I knew.”

“There’s no way you wouldn’t know. In fact, that could be the state.”

“Well, I thought you were being very passive here.”

Kang Min would have tilted his head, and Han Ye-seul was screaming in the present tense, but their thoughts were firm.

You literally poured everything into this directing, this powerful force, but ended up leaving something ambiguous due to lack of skills? That can’t be possible!

From the beginning, producer Han Ye-seul was thinking of turning into a series. It feels like , where the story progresses as the ghost meets numerous ‘customers’.

From the perspective of a freelance producer, it was truly an enormous ambition… .

“That’s amazing.”

“yes.”

And this brilliant reasoning(?) again gave rise to impatience.

“But we have to stop it.”

“yes. “It’s a really boring situation for us.”

From CAE’s perspective, even if the contract with Kang Min is successful, there is no reason for him to remain in Korea.

No, whether it’s good or bad, it’s meaningless. Isn’t that why you are going through all this trouble right now?

‘There is no way.’

Penelope immediately scrapped her plan to push Aislin or put pressure on her leisurely by attaching Seon-yul or Agent Smith to her.

She quickly shook her head.

Was it luck? At that moment, a perfect idea occurred to me.

Penelope hit her knee without realizing it.

“uncle. “Let’s turn the chessboard over!”

“What do you mean, Penny?”

“Instead of trying to persuade the other party, how about pretending to accept those ridiculous conditions and getting them to put their stamp on the contract first?”

“… What do you mean?”

“Why, last time we invested, there was a low-budget movie that got stranded, right? “Director Hado is such a weirdo that he just decided to treat it as a sunk cost!”

Penelope opened her phone and grinned.

It was a very sinister-looking laugh.

“If you’re going to throw it away anyway, how about asking them to do whatever they want as a condition of the contract? If we mess up properly, Mr. Gang, won’t you come to your senses and listen to our story? “It will be easier to apply pressure!”

“well… Will it work?”

“of course! This director is the most… No, next to Mr. Kang, he’s just another idiot. “There’s no way the chemistry that brings these two together is okay, right?”

“hmm.”

Well, it was an understandable logic.

CEO Jaylen looked at his nephew’s sinister face and nodded.

A nephew with an expression like that had never failed.

“good. “Go ahead.”

“yes!”

Penelope smiled brightly as she looked at the stubborn face of an unknown director named ‘Henry Fion’ that appeared on her cell phone.

‘good! It’s truly a perfect move! Even that madman will have no choice but to get hit this time, right?’

Penelope was excited at the thought of giving a blow to the opponent who had been under such terrible control over the past few days.

I became more confident and motivated.

… And, that was the beginning of CAE’s tragedy.
