After talking with Han Jun-seo, director Kim Soo-han checked the set with the art team one last time.
The set where today’s filming took place was an ordinary house, characterized by a red piano in the living room. We could have rented a whole house, but since there were many scenes to be filmed here, we built a whole house.
From floor to ceiling.
Director Kim Soo-han looked back and forth between the set and the camera, carefully examining every part that entered the camera angle.
“Are you nervous, bro?”
As the assistant director whispered, Director Kim Soo-han smiled and said.
“I did, but it’s not something to worry about.”
It was a photoshoot with Seo-jun that I had dreamed of for a long time. Plus, my friend Han Jun-seo also appeared with me.
That’s why I wanted to make it even more perfect. Without a single blemish on the jade.
So it wasn’t that I didn’t feel any tension or pressure,
“Even if I do something wrong, Seojun and Junseo will cover for me! And you too.”
Director Kim Soo-han believed in the actors, assistant directors, and staff who were sincere about their work.
Even if I made a small mistake, he would notice it right away and tell me.
“Well, that doesn’t mean I’ll leave everything up to other people. Ad Livitum is my work.”
The assistant director smiled faintly at the sight of Director Kim Soo-han happily accepting even the slightest tension.
I worked with director Kim Soo-han to learn how to keep my balance while accepting good opinions from actors and staff.
“Let’s start filming.”
As Director Kim Soo-han nodded and spoke after finishing inspecting the set, the assistant director raised his voice.
“Let’s start filming!”
At that voice, the staff quickly went down to the set and the cinematographer took his place in front of the camera. The noisy atmosphere became quiet in an instant.
Everyone’s eyes were focused on the two actors heading to the set.
‘at las……’
I finally got to film with Seojun.
Han Jun-seo clenched and unclenched his fists, feeling nervous and trembling, but also full of emotion. It felt like his breath would just flow out on its own.
When I first found out that I would be filming with Seojun and when I was practicing with him, it felt like I was dreaming, but now that filming is right around the corner, my mind feels clear as if I was splashed with very cold water. Thanks to that, the lines I had memorized and the acting I had to do came back to me clearly.
‘I have to work hard.’
Isn’t this the shoot you’ve been waiting for for a long time?
Of course, I practiced hard, but since it was a real match, I wanted to show Seojun a better side of myself.
“Please take good care of the filming, Junseo hyung.”
I hope that the filming with Seo-jun, who talks and laughs, will make this work even better.
“Please take care of me too, Seojun.”
Seojundo had the same thoughts as Hanjunseo.
In this work that everyone has been waiting for, I wanted to portray ‘Lee Jae-ha’ more perfectly.
‘therefore…….’
Seo-jun, who had taken his seat in front of the piano, looked at Han Jun-seo heading out the front door, and let the little remaining thoughts about his ‘first life’ and the joy and excitement of acting with Han Jun-seo float away like waves.
From now on, I am not ‘Lee Seo-jun’ but ‘Lee Jae-ha’.
Lee Seo-jun’s heart needed to be buried for a moment.
‘I’m sure it’s the same for Junseo hyung too.’
He would put aside his excitement for his first shoot with Seo-jun and immerse himself in the character of ‘Choi Dong-hyun’. And once the shoot began, he would come in through the front door and exchange lines with Seo-jun.
It was fun just to imagine it.
As expected, acting was fun.
‘Oh, I should erase this too.’
Calming down his excited heart, Seojun aroused the emotions of ‘Lee Jaeha’ who loves the piano.
He also expressed exactly what he had analyzed, including what Lee Jae-ha was thinking, how he would act, and what tone of voice and facial expression he would use.
As always.
“Ready,”
Seojun blinked.
“Action!”
There was ‘Lee Jae-ha’.
***
At sunset.
I heard piano music. It was a classical piece that I felt like I had heard somewhere before.
It was a beautiful and wonderful performance that anyone would listen to, something that is difficult to hear in an ordinary apartment.
♩-♪♬
The neat and tidy fingers moved back and forth between the pure white and black keys, creating a beautiful melody.
The young man, Jae-ha Lee, the master of the hands, smiled as if he was completely absorbed in playing the piano, and pressed the keys here and there. How beautiful the harmony created by those fingers, sometimes moving quickly and sometimes moving slowly, was. It was a scene where even the mysterious light of the sunset shining through the large window seemed to have become part of the music.
With his handsome appearance added to the mix, it was believable even if you said it was a movie shoot.
However, Lee Jae-ha focused solely on playing the piano.
‘A little more… … .’
A little more beautifully.
Lee Jae-ha continued playing the piano with a satisfied look on his face at the melody he was creating with his hands.
at that time.
A disparate sound was heard amidst the soft piano melody.
It was the sound of a door lock being pressed, beep-beep-beep, but then I heard a warning sound of a password being entered incorrectly.
‘You’re here… … .’
Lee Jae-ha’s shoulders slumped slightly as he played along to the melody he liked. Nevertheless, he continued playing the piano. Since he had already started playing, he wanted to play a little longer.
Again, beep-beep-
I heard the sound of the door lock being pressed.
This time, it seemed as if I was right, I could even hear the front door opening.
Lee Jae-ha’s shoulders hunched. Even his piano playing seemed stiff. Nevertheless, his two hands continued to move across the piano keys.
Thud thud-
I heard the sound of someone walking with their shoes off.
Strangely, I felt that the two footsteps sounded different, but I couldn’t think about it for long. I knew that I would soon hear my father’s voice.
‘There will definitely be a warning.’
I might get beaten, or I might not be able to eat for a while and just play the piano.
‘No, the contest is almost over, so will you give me food?’
anyhow.
It was clear that something big was happening.
Lee Jae-ha tried to straighten his hunched posture a bit more (if he didn’t, he’d get in trouble), and continued playing the piano, thinking that he wanted to finish playing since he’d get in trouble anyway, a thought he never would have imagined before.
“I’m sorry, Father. I’ll just play this song… … .”
Of course, I added a timid apology.
But it was strange.
I couldn’t hear my father’s voice. It wouldn’t have been strange if I had dragged him home right away, but he didn’t do anything.
Jaeha Lee, who had been tense about it, slowly turned his head with a puzzled expression and looked in the direction where he felt the presence.
“……uh?”
A question mark appeared above Jaeha Lee’s head, who was frightened.
There was a man I saw for the first time.
A man who looked to be in his mid-thirties, wearing slightly worn but clean clothes, was staring at Jaeha Lee with a blank expression. Looking him up and down, really staring.
‘Father… … .’
No?
Jaeha Lee’s eyes, which had grown wide in surprise, suddenly filled with joy.
“……you.”
“Just a moment. Please wait a moment!”
Not your father!
Lee Jae-ha, who was more scared of his father than of a stranger who suddenly came into his house, couldn’t hide his joy. Whether his joy was conveyed through his two hands or not, his piano playing, which had been stiff as if he had copied the music score, soon became relaxed.
“Let’s talk after the performance. It’ll be over soon.”
Lee Jae-ha whispered happily, but honestly, he didn’t think the man would listen to him. Everyone else did.
However, contrary to Lee Jae-ha’s guess, the man sat down on the soft sofa in one corner of the living room with a displeased expression. He had given permission to play.
Lee Jae-ha smiled brightly at him.
‘topper!’
My father wasn’t home, and there was someone here who would listen to my performance.
Since he had recently left home and been playing alone, Jaeha Lee was so excited that he played the piano even more beautifully and clearly.
The man sat on the sofa and listened to the performance without saying much. He was a good audience member.
-!
As Lee Jae-ha said, the song ended soon after.
Lee Jae-ha turned around with a refreshing face and smiled brightly at the man.
“How was it? Have you ever heard this piece? It’s the second movement of Chopin’s Nocturne No. 9. It’s a very famous piece, so you’ve probably heard it before.”
Lee Jae-ha, who was talking excitedly to the man who just listened without answering, touched the back of his neck and said, “Ah.”
“I’m sorry. I should have said thank you first. Thank you for listening to the end.”
“Then I should go back now.”
Lee Jae-ha, who had been sitting upright, lowered his shoulders slightly at the man’s words. His expression showed that he had expected this to happen.
“As expected, you were the one my father sent me. I thought you wouldn’t know since I rented an Airbnb instead of a hotel… … .”
Lee Jae-ha said this while looking around the house he had rented for a while.
Since the hotel is a place with a lot of people coming and going, I intentionally chose to stay at an Airbnb, but I didn’t know I would get caught this quickly.
‘I don’t want to go back… … .’
Lee Jae-ha turned his head again and looked at the man.
Judging from his plain clothes, he doesn’t seem to be a bodyguard.
“Are you a detective?”
Are you the detective who responded to the missing person report?
“Are you a detective?”
But the man denied it right away.
“sure?”
“Just an errand center employee. If you give her money, she’ll do everything from finding people to this and that.”
“Ah! I’ve seen that in a movie.”
wow.
Lee Jae-ha’s eyes sparkled. He definitely had a similar vibe to the errand center employee in the movie. Except he was a little neater.
Suddenly.
A good idea popped into Jaeha Lee’s head.
“Did you tell your father I was here?”
“no.”
Lee Jae-ha’s expression brightened even more at the man’s answer.
“Then can I tell you a little later? It’s not that I won’t go back, I just want to go back a little later. I was planning on going back before the concours, too!”
hmm.
The man stroked his chin as if pondering.
Lee Jae-ha said with a more earnest voice and look in his eyes.
“My father will be very anxious because he has to find me before the competition. Then he will be able to receive more commission.”
The man looked at him with a strange expression at Lee Jae-ha’s words telling him to steal his father’s money.
“I’ll give you my money too! I have some money saved from winning prizes.”
To be exact, I didn’t have time to write because I was practicing the piano. Anyway, thanks to that, I was able to rent this house.
“You said you would do anything if I gave you money.”
“… … Yeah. That’s right. That’s right.”
“I’ll ask you too. Please don’t tell my father that I’m here until the contest.”
Jae-ha Lee looked at the man, who was hesitating whether to accept the request or not, with an anxious expression.
The man who rolled his eyes looked at Jaeha Lee.
“… … Are you really going back before the concours?”
“yes!”
“How can I believe that?”
Lee Jae-ha, who had been smiling brightly and nodding his head repeatedly, looked at the man with a speechless expression.
“If you run away in the middle, you won’t get the money.”
“I’m not going to run away… … .”
“A guy who left home wouldn’t run away.”
Lee Jae-ha groaned at the right words.
“Then what should I do?”
“I have to stay here too. Until I send you back.”
aha?
Lee Jae-ha just blinks at the sudden suggestion.
At that sight, the man lifted up his cell phone and said.
“Why? You don’t like it? If you don’t like it, go back now.”
It looked like he was going to contact his father at any moment.
“No! Okay!”
Lee Jae-ha quickly answered the man’s words. Judging from his bright face, he didn’t seem to dislike it that much.
“It seems like it would be fun to live with a friend!”
“What about friends?”
Despite the man’s blunt speech, perhaps because of the increased workload, Jaeha Lee was only happy that he did not have to go home.
“Oh, by the way, we didn’t even announce our names, hyung!”
“……brother?”
“You’re right, hyung.”
Haha, Lee Jae-ha continued to laugh.
“Hyung, what’s your name? As you may know, my name is Lee Jae-ha. I’m a pianist.”
The man looked at Lee Jae-ha for a moment and then sighed.
His face looked a little daunted at the thought of having to spend time with this guy until the concours.
“Choi Dong-hyun.”
“It was Dong-Hyeon hyung!”
Choi Dong-hyun wondered if accepting the request was the right thing to do.
