Chapter 172

The last filming of The Rebel was held at Gangnyeongjeon.

Seo-jun will act with you, even though he wont appear on the screen. Its more realistic to act with someone whos actually there than to pretend that someone is there.

Okay. I understand.

Lee Jiseok nodded at the directors words.

When you act, Seo-jun, give off a strange vibe. Do you remember when you filmed The Evil Spirit?

He said that and scratched his cheek. 

He had filmed The Evil Spirit when he was six years old and it had been seven years since then.

How could he forget?

Contrary to the directors worry, Seo-jun remembered it vividly.

I remember!

The director was amazed by Seo-juns words and continued.

I want you to act like that, with a weird atmosphere.

Yes!

Seo-jun nodded his head. He had read the script and chosen a suitable ability.

Then lets start filming!

[(Evil) The Fallen King of the Bird Tribes Feather Lowest Grade]

You can use the power of wind.

The spirit of the last king who shared the downfall of his country appears.

How could he not have any fear or resentment? 

The last king of the bird tribe who stayed in the castle until the end had hesitated and worried a lot.

The grudge that the king of the bird tribe had harbored remained as an ability. It was the lowest grade because it was a remnant, but it was enough.

Seo-jun, who wore a dragon robe, sat on a throne in Gangnyeongjeon.

Ready,

He heard the directors voice.

Seo-jun took a deep breath. 

He had to be careful when using evil abilities, so he focused more than when he used good abilities.

Now,

[(Evil) The Fallen King of the Bird Tribes Feather is activated.]

It was time to act as Danjong, who would be stuck with Sejo forever.

Action!

At the same time, an ominous aura spread over the throne of the traitor who dared to defy heaven.

***

Its on again.

Park Sungwon sighed as he saw the preview of [Running Man!] that he had seen many times while flipping through TV channels.

[The left behind Park Youngjin! Who is his savior!?]

Park Sungwon sighed as he saw the preview of [Running Man!] that he had seen many times while flipping through TV channels.

[The left behind Park Youngjin! Who is his savior!?]

SBCs promotion was annoying not only Park Sungwon but also many others. There were many posts on the internet.

-If its nothing special, Ill spam their board. Im serious.

=22 I can memorize their ads from beginning to end now. Just stop it.

-How much do they have to do to not get spammed?

=Seo-jun level?

=?? Just say you want to spam them. Do you really think they met by chance? Its all planned and scripted.

=22 Seo-jun level is not enough. He should just come out.

And then [Running Man!] aired.

In front of Park Youngjin, who was running around in the countryside, a huge tourist bus appeared. He had expected at least a car, but the viewers were speechless at the sight of the bus.

-?? Tourist bus?? Tour. Ist. Bus?

-I should just go spam them now

=22 Me too

But there were more cars behind the bus. The last car looked different even on the screen.

-???

Shining in the sunlight, someone came out of the car. The camera shook as if it was surprised. Park Youngjin shouted as he saw his face. The viewers screamed in earnest.

-Seo-jun!?!

-The real Seo-jun!?

-Seo-jun came out? Where?!

-So thats why they did so much advertising

Seo-juns appearance on [Running Man!] was short, but Park Youngjin promoted it hard. He bragged to the members whenever he could, and shouted during the games.

Look at this! Look!

It sounds like youre swearing.

Hahaha. Have you ever ridden in the same car with Seo-jun? I have!

Ugh.

Choi Sohee and Jeong Hoon, who were sincerely jealous and angry, targeted only Park Youngjin. 

Park Youngjin ran away laughing. 

He promoted hard as he promised with Seo-jun.

Look at this! Look!

[Who is the star that met the left behind Park Youngjin?!]

[Why are you here? The superstar that no one expected!]

The editing of The Rebel was finished and an internal screening was held for the actors and staff. 

The director sat next to Seo-jun and said.

Were planning to release it in America too.

America?

Seo-jun and Anh Da Hos eyes widened. 

The director smiled brightly and nodded.

Yes. It will only be shown in theaters where there are many Koreans, but still. It means a lot to have a simultaneous release in America. To be honest, I think some people will come to see it anyway.

I see. Then Nara, Rachel, and Evan can see it sooner.

He thought of his friends who had considered coming to Korea because the upload of Plus+ was too slow. Nara and Evan would enjoy it, but Rachel, who was learning Korean, would find the historical drama difficult.

Did you decide on the American distributor?

Plus+ agreed to help us.

He wondered if he should introduce them to Marine, but Seo-jun and Anh Da Ho nodded at the directors words. Plus+ was one of the investors.

Director. When will the trailer come out?

I finished editing it yesterday. It will probably be uploaded at midnight tomorrow.

The internal screening was a success and the production company Danghong released a press release.

[June, The Rebels grand opening!]

[Simultaneous release in America? Under negotiation!]

[The story of Danjong and Sejo, re-released!]

[Another historical drama by Lee Seo-jun and Lee Jiseok! The fans of The Royal Physician gathered again!]

[Tonight at midnight! The Rebel trailer will be uploaded on YouTube and Plus+!]

[The wait that started from the audition! The Rebel is opening!]

[Will the scenes from the audition video appear?!]

[TV ads start tomorrow!]

-Wow. YouTube? Plus? Which one should I watch?

-Weve been waiting for seven months since November!

-But it was nice to get some hints in between lol

=Yeah lol November was the audition video, January was the food truck photo, February was the unexpected encounter lol March was Lee Seo-juns entrance ceremony, May was the trailer!

-The shooting photos were amazing. To see Seo-jun wearing a dragon robe!

=22 He was wearing a padding so it looked oddly modern lol

-Do you think the audition video will appear?

=Even if it doesnt, the atmosphere will be similar

-Time is too slow.

=Its only 9 oclock.

=10 oclock!

=11 oclock!

=12 oclock!!

Park Sungwon refreshed the YouTube channel [The Rebel] as soon as it was midnight.

Its out!

There were many people like him, so the views went up in an instant, but Park Sungwon didnt care. 

He was already immersed in the trailer.

The screen was filled with gray stones.

It was a stone road. 

The camera slowly moved forward, showing the stone road. Why are they only showing the floor? 

He tilted his head, and Park Sungwon remembered a similar place.

When people heard that Lee Seo-jun was filming a historical drama, they smelled money and started to appear one by one.

Travel products related to Danjong were created, characters were made, novels and history books that explained the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty in modern language were published.

The officials of Gyeongbokgung Palace also didnt miss this opportunity and held a coronation ceremony event. Sometimes a young king, sometimes a bearded king sat on the throne. Anyone could tell they were Danjong and Sejo.

Park Sungwon also read the most popular history book The Life of Danjong and visited palaces such as Gwanghwamun and Gyeongbokgung Palace and watched the coronation ceremony.

This is in front of Geunjeongjeon, right?

Large stones covered the ground. 

It was a familiar place for historical dramas. 

It was where Sejongs coronation ceremony was held in The Royal Physician. 

It was Geunjeongjeon.

The screen changed. 

Top, bottom. 

It was split into two screens. 

The feet of two people walking on two stone roads were shown. 

They wore the same shoes, but the sizes were different.

The top one had small feet, and the bottom one had big feet.

He walked hesitantly.

He walked confidently.

Boom!

With a loud drum sound, a song that seemed to be the OST of The Rebel played. 

The two screens slowly moved up from their feet.

He fidgeted with his hands nervously.

He felt the strength in his clenched fists.

The lower garments of the two people were shown.

His lips were tight with tension.

His lips curled up with satisfaction.

The crowns of the two people shook.

He looked ahead with tense eyes.

He looked around with ease.

The camera that had zoomed in on the two kings moved away. 

The screen showed them sitting on the throne, with Geunjeongjeon in full view.

The screen that showed the two kings turned around and showed the officials who filled the courtyard of Geunjeongjeon. 

A loud sound was heard.

Long live!!

Long long live!!

With that shout, the screen flipped over.

Between the beads of the crown, the faces of the two kings were shown.

A calm and confident gaze.

A rough and ruthless gaze.

A will that bloomed in fear.

The screen turned black. 

A brush with white ink wrote rough letters on it.

[The Rebel]

[Opening in June!]

Park Sungwon was amazed by the trailer he was watching.

From their footsteps to their hand movements and gazes. 

The comparison between the top and the bottom showed the differences between Danjong and Sejo more clearly.

And the last one was definitely Sejo on top, right?

Just like the words the rebel, the trailer was full of the feeling of rebellion.

Should I watch it again?

Park Sungwon clicked on replay. 

The people who watched the trailer did the same.

-The trailer feels like a rebellion.

-Until the officials came out, the top was Danjong and the bottom was Sejo, but after they came out, the top was Sejo and the bottom was Danjong.

-The chills when they shouted long live. Sejo lived long enough to match long live, but Danjong died young.

-The trailer is crazy The directing is amazing.

-But theres less of The Royal Physician vibe than I worried about?

=22 Whats The Royal Physician? Its just Danjong and Sejo lol

-I wish it was June already!
