"Then, start as soon as you're ready. For the audition, as in the first round, you can play the scene that you are most confident in."
Director Yeo Jaeyoon said, but he couldn't start acting immediately. It was because I felt restless because I remembered the failure I had at my first audition.
Let's not think about useless things. I'm just doing what I can.'
When I calmly organized my mind, the script of "Absolute Unlicensed Counseling" came to mind.
From the scene where the "representative" is asked by a con artist to open up his daughter's heart to the scene where the con artist becomes sincere to his daughter and falls in love. These are all scenes that were analyzed underlined in the script.
Among them, the scene I prepared for this audition is the first time that a "representative" and "genius con artist" meet.
An important scene is the introduction of the work which makes the audience immerse themselves in the work.
The point of this scene is that you have to play a fraudster with confidence and wit who is not intimidated in front of a representative who has gone through a lot of pre-natal warfare.
"Let's get started."
The moment I slowly close my eyes, breathe in slowly and slowly recite the lines.
"This is!
The memory of Kim Faith began to come to mind.
***
a room that is more splendid than a suite in a luxury hotel. The subtle scent of flowers added luxury. There, Kim Mi-seong and an old man of sturdy build sat face to face.
"Are you trusting Kim?"
"If you're talking about someone who's been charged with 27 frauds and has been cleared of all charges, I'm right."
The old man opened his eyes slightly wide at Kim's confident voice. The expression reveals a subtle sense of satisfaction, saying, "Look at this guy."
On the other hand, the guards standing around the old man stared at him fiercely to see if he didn't like Kim's attitude.
"Wow, but the house is really nice. How much is a house like this? 8 billion? 10 billion
"Well, I think you can buy enough with the money you've saved."
"No way. I only have 400,000 won in my bank account."
Kim Faith shook with excitement.
Then, with a relaxed gesture, he said, drinking tea on the table.
"So, why did the chairman call me himself? I'm busy even though I'm like this."
"It's not a big deal. I just asked you to return my wife's secret money' that you took."
The old man said, looking straight at Kim Faith. The look contained a clear warning.
A warning containing the spirit of an old man who went through all the hardships of life.
"You're good at joking. You called me for a "non-payment" of your wife who's in the middle of a divorce lawsuit? That can't happen in Daemyungcheonji."
"You have other reasons than that. I knew everything."
Kim Faith was still relaxed. The old man stared at the belief in Kim.
It's an intense look that a criminal can't easily pass, but Kim's expression has not changed at all.
In the end, the old man smiled and nodded.
"He can't be beaten. By the way, who told you that I was suing for divorce from my wife? It's something that very few people know."
"That's my trade secret, so I can't tell you."
.
"Let's talk about business sooner than that. Isn't the real reason why you called me because of your pretty daughter?"
Kim Faith leaned on the sofa and spoke in an arrogant manner. The old man stared at him and gave him his ears.
"I think you know everything, so I'll say it straightforwardly. My daughter suffers from interpersonal aversion. I've improved a lot thanks to the doctors, but she still can't speak."
"The doctors said that the reason my daughter can't speak' is there's no one to open up.' That's why I called you. You who have opened and stolen thousands of hearts."
"Open my daughter's heart."
The old man continued to add in a serious voice.
"The deadline is until we meet in six months." Until then, please put my daughter at a level where she can talk to others."
"It's six months. What about the pay?"
"For you, money is not attractive as a remuneration. You present it to me."
"Well. I can't think of anything right now. Just give me a blank check. You'll listen to what I want later."
"It's not bad."
The old man nodded and said to the bodyguard next to him, "Get me the contract."
Faith Kim raised his hand and restrained the bodyguard.
"Oh, the contract is done. An appointment is enough. The chairman is not the one to break his promise."
.
"I'm more curious than that. Can you tell me?"
"Tell me."
"I heard that the CEO, unlike your wife, really cares for your daughter, so why are you asking me to do it? Doesn't the CEO think of someone like me as a bug? The CEO of "Lee Bong-seok" that I know It's a person."
The old man was impressed by Kim's words. The faint wrinkles on the forehead were noticeably visible.
Whether something touched the old man's anger switch, somehow the feelings he had been holding back were eventually revealed.
The old man growled in a heavy voice.
"That's right. I think people like you are no better than bugs. But if even such a man could help my daughter, I could keep my head down as much as I wanted."
.
"I didn't ask a bug because I didn't love my daughter, but I loved my daughter so I could ask a bug. Do you understand?"
The old man's heavy voice seemed to frustrate the air. However, again this time, Kim Faith did not even change a minute expression.
"Well, I see. Anyway, that's an interesting thing. It's a pretty big challenge for me, too, to work on my social phobia. Is that all you have to say?"
"Not yet. There are three conditions to this request."
"Conditions?"
"Yes. First, don't tell anyone what I asked you to do. Second, periodically report directly to me."
.
"And finally, always identify the subject. All I want is a key to open the tightly closed heart of my daughter, not a worm-like son-in-law."
The old man's words put Kim Faith in deep thought this time. For a moment, he said calmly as if there was still no problem.
"It's good. I can do that for you."
"I like one cool personality. Then let's hear the plan first. What are you going to do?"
When the old man asked for the "plan," Kim Faith was in trouble again.
However, it didn't take too long to open the mouth again this time.
"First of all, I have to investigate the person I need to work on'. You have to prepare thoroughly step by step so that there is no failure."
"If it's a survey Are you going to do my daughter's background check?"
"Yes, but please say pre-investigation' rather than background investigation."
.
"I'll contact you when I'm ready. Then I'll get up first because I think I'll be busy."
Kim Mi-seong took a leisurely time to empty the teacup and got up from his seat. Several bodyguards continued to shoot him at Kim's gentle voice and attitude.
Whether such a fierce look triggered Kim's mischief, he even winked at some of the bodyguards who were staring at him, saying, "Good work."
The moment you try to go outside after some of the bodyguards. The old man brought up Kim Faith.
"Wait. Can I ask you a question?"
"Yes, well. As much as you want."
"Now, are you confident of getting my daughter to speak in six months? No, even if I am confident, how can I trust you?"
Faith Kim smiled slightly at the old man's words. As if I had expected this question.
Faith Kim slowly turned around and looked at the old man. Confident and confident, and at the same time said with a soft smile'.
"I'm a con artist. I'm someone you can't trust, but you can't help but trust me. So just feel free to believe it. You called me anyway, and I was the only one who you believed that can help your daughter, right
You're right. All right, I'll trust you."
After the old man's last words, his vision came back.
It was a relatively short act, but I got everything I needed.
Without realizing it, a faint smile rose on my face. It was because I felt so relaxed as if I was lying about preparing for acting until a while ago.
He lowered his chin slightly and looked straight at Yeo Jaeyoon. His gaze is directed somewhere behind me, not me.
Said to bring his focus back.
"Here we go, director."
I could see director Yeo Jaeyoon's eyes rushing back to me. I can see his face, which had been a little stiff until a while ago, unraveled as if relieved.
I started to recite the lines I had prepared.
"My name is Song Trust. I'm a con artist."
***
Director Yeo Jaeyoon's living room.
"Whoa.
Jang Sunho is walking around the living room with his arms folded. The people will be virtuous when they see him like that.
"Is that Kang Jinseok's actor-manager?"
"Yes, but he looks much warmer than what I saw in the picture. "If you look at the picture with actor Kang Jinseok, he looks very ugly."
"That's probably because he's next to actor Kang Jinseok. But why is he look so restless?"
"I'm not sure. Is it because he's worried about Kang Jinseok's audition?"
"Other managers don't go that far."
Jang Sunho knew that the people were whispering to him. But it didn't really bother me. Jang Sunho is also busy caring about Jinseok.
"How is it going?" I'm sure you did a good job, right
At that time, I heard the sound of pulling slippers in the hallway near the study hall. Jang Sunho turned his head reflexively.
Jinseok and Yeo Jaeyoon are seen. Fortunately, their expressions were bright.
"Audition". It must have gone well.'
I felt as if the heavy stone on my chest had disappeared. However, Jang Sunho approached Jinseok without showing such a thing.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Jang Sunho speaks with no expression as if he isn't worried or worried at all. Unlike Jang Sunho, Jinseok honestly said with joy.
"Oh, yes. You've waited a long time!"
Listening to Jinseok's bright expression and voice, Jang Sunho's expressionless expression almost collapsed. I thought about congratulating him honestly, but I decided to refrain from doing so because I was afraid that people around me would look like I was out of arms.
Yeo Jaeyoon stood next to those two and said.
"You auditioned really well today. I'll get in touch with you sooner or later."
Although he did not say clearly that he passed, I could feel that Jinseok captured his heart from Yeo Jaeyoon's expression and voice.
Yeo Jaeyoon added while Jang Sunho looked at Jinseok as if he was proud.
"By the way, actor Kang. I'm serious about what you asked me earlier. Think carefully and tell me."
"Oh. Yes, haha.
Jinseok scratched his cheek with an embarrassing smile at Yeo Jaeyoon's words. Jang Sunho asked as if he was curious about Jinseok's reaction, which seemed a little embarrassed.
"Director, what do you think you asked me earlier?"
"Oh, it's nothing."
Yeo Jaeyoon talks as if it's really nothing.
However, the words destroyed Jang Sunho's expressionless expression.
"I just asked actor Kang Jinseok to take good care of my daughter."
