Superstar From Age 0

Chapter 472:

Chapter 472:

“Mother.”

Moviegoer said.

“Maybe M crashed in Joseon, on the Korean Peninsula, on Earth, but he didn't forget that word.”

-Yoo-jin???

-????

“And there was also the remaining command or memory, anyway, the scientist's words. The meal time that came out earlier. The scientist says.

‘Water and protein, fat, minerals. Remember well. Maybe if your body lacks energy, your hair color will fall off first. And if your eyes change color, it's close, so remember well.’

She said.”

Moviegoer showed something on the monitor.

“Water, protein, fat, minerals. It looks like an ordinary diet, but it's not when you think about the rest of the story. If you think of the scientist as an alien rather than a human, there is a perfect energy source and food that fits here.”

-…Cookie? Run Cookie?

-Is it a cookie?

-????

“No. Not a cookie, but a person. A person.”

-I've never felt that he was an alien so much.

-…Yoo-jin. Should we stay away a little?

-So M eats people.

“That's right. But he lacks energy more than he thinks, so his head is white and his eyes turn yellow. That's what made him look like a non-human creature to people.”

-Clue 1: Eats people.

-Clue 2: Body is hard like metal.

-Clue 3: Head is white and eyes are yellow.

-Clue 4: Says something incomprehensible.

-Clue 5: Alien and looks different from humans.

-Conclusion: Not human.

Moviegoer blinked his eyes at the comments that came up one after another and opened his mouth.

“…I always wonder if you secretly make a group chat and practice. Why do you all match so well? Look. Normally, there should be at least ‘???’ between clue 3 and clue 4, but there isn't. The numbers are in order and the clues are different!”

-????

-Nope???

-No practice like that. Just a Moviegoer channel regular.

-Isn't this kind of unity basic for 22?

-I'm a newbie and it's scary;;;

“I'm scared too.”

Everyone laughed at Moviegoer's words.

“Anyway, M says his first understandable word. Maybe in terms of setting, it's like playing back what he recorded, but this actor Seo-jun Lee did it too well, very well, really well.”

-The change from beast sound]machine sound]human voice was so good.

-Seo-jun Lee (actor industry regular)

-???20 years old but has 14 years of experience.

-It looks more amazing when you see it in numbers. Really.

-Really a regular???

“A human voice is not just a human voice. A part that just passed by earlier.”

-Tavern owner: Hey there.

“Yes. It's Tavern owner's voice. I was so goosebumps when I noticed that. M comes up on stage like that. I really only saw M until then. Maybe it was because of the spotlight, but I couldn't see the background and only saw M with a strange atmosphere. He had such a power to captivate people's eyes, an aura.”

A situation where the world disappears and only one person is seen.

The video was edited from the beginning to focus on M, so he couldn't feel that immersion. Most of the viewers who couldn't see the play buried their faces in both hands and wanted to cry.

-Sob…

-From now on my name is ‘Can't see play’. I’ll remember today for the rest of my life.

-My name is ‘Want to see play’.

“It's good enough on video too. There are pros and cons of plays and pros and cons of videos. Let's go back to the review then. The Peddler in the room didn't notice M on the same stage. Of course there was a wall setting, but honestly I think it would be hard to ignore that aura, but he acted very peacefully.

He is Kang Jae-han who appeared in ‘Escape’ and ‘Mirror’.”

-Really good.

-As expected of the golden generation.

“M stands in front of the door. And he says. No, he plays back what he recorded.”

-???: Hey there.

-???: Open this door please.

-If you only hear the voice, you think it's Tavern owner;;;

“It's also said that Seo-jun Lee acted Tavern owner's voice himself, which is really amazing. And the Peddler opens the door when he hears that voice. M rushes in and the Peddler falls. The stage turns black and there is a thud, as if hitting the floor with a palm and struggling. The sound was a little longer than the play in the video.”

-It would be creepy if it was longer;;;

-I was scared by the thud sound too.

“Me too. It really sounded like he was dying and then there was no sound. And the stage lights up and the other Peddler and Tavern owner have a conversation that solves all the questions. Tavern owner says.”

Moviegoer brought up the line that ended the play [MOEB-436].

“We live in Jangsan after taking the name of this mountain behind us.”

He remembered M, who was white and red under the red light, looking at the audience. He felt like he had met his eyes with his empty eyes without any life.

“We call it Jangsanbeom.”

-Chills…!

-Jangsanbeom!!!

-Jangsanbeom! Jangsanbeom!!

-How much I wanted to say that name from the start of the broadcast!!!

Come to think of it, there was never a word Jangsanbeom in the chat. There was Jangsan, though.

“Why didn't you all say anything?”

-…Just?

-I felt like I shouldn't say it first?

-I thought it would be nice if you said it, Moviegoer.

He laughed at the sight of those viewers.

“Thank you. Thanks to you, I got to say it. Yes. M’s identity was Jangsanbeom. No, should I say Jangsanbeom was an android M? Anyway, I was really goosebumps and my mouth opened when I heard this line. Really, all the foreshadowing was connected, that thrill…”

-Me too!

-I saw it on video and I felt that too!

“I understood why it went from SF to Joseon. Diet, hair color, eye color, voice playback, I understood why they came out. Really enough to believe in Jangsanbeom alien android theory.”

-????

-That's up???

-It's on YouTube??

He laughed at the story that it was already up.

“Jangsanbeom. Jangsanbeom is a tiger that lives in Jangsan, busan. It's not an old folk tale, but a rather recent urban legend. They say there was no Jangsanbeom in Joseon.”

-Oh? There wasn't in Joseon?

-I thought there was then.

“I thought so too, but they say no. Jangsanbeom, which has long white fur and looks like a tiger, imitates human voices and makes people inside open the door and eats them.”

-Why do these kinds of ghosts or monsters always need human permission to enter?

-…To make the story more interesting?

-Aha!

-But I can understand M a little bit.

-The robot's three laws of not killing humans are broken, but the command of not entering a room without permission is still intact for M.

-Lol, isn't that weird? Lol

“That's right. The command of asking for permission before entering a room seems to be still remaining in him. Or maybe it's because of his memory of his mother, who was a scientist.”

-??? : Mom said to open the door when she calls!

-Yoo-jin???

-??? : Mom said to eat well!

-But killing people is too much???

Moviegoers and viewers laughed.

“The white cloak that M wore when he came out was not an ordinary prop either. If you look closely, you can see something stained on the lower back part like a tiger pattern. It might be the blood of the people or animals he hunted before. He might have mistaken it for a tiger.”

-But why did he wear the cloak?

“That might be because it was similar to the scientist's gown. If you recall his dialogue earlier, M said ‘mother in a white gown’. He saw the white cloak that was most similar to it and unknowingly put it on.”

-??? : It's mom's gown! Hehe. I should try it on!

-Yoo-jin only remembers his mom??

-He's like a stray dog that stays in the same place even after being abandoned???

“And there was a secret hidden in the play's title as well. MOEB-436. The title that we thought was the model name of the android from the conversation in the first part of the spaceship. But if you flip it over like this…”

Moviegoer flipped over [MOEB-436] on the monitor.

[634-BEOM]

“634 is the height of Jangsan in Busan. 634M, they say. And the alphabet behind it is obviously a tiger. Jangsan and tiger. Jangsanbeom. The title was telling us who the protagonist of this play was from the beginning.”

-I didn't know.

-I had no idea;;;

-Who would think of flipping over the title?

-If it was a real mystery play, maybe I would have thought about it once… but this is SF, right??

-222 I thought it was SF, but then Joseon era came out, and Jangsanbeom came out. It was an unpredictable story after I understood it lol lol lol

-But it was fun lol lol

“Yes, it was a great play that was not ordinary. To be honest, I thought it was cliché until the part where his son came out, but after that it was a story that I couldn't guess even an inch ahead. I was amazed by the directorial aspects as well. He appeared from the audience seats! What a pressure! That scene is something I will never forget in my life!”

-I'm tired of saying I'm jealous…

-But I'm still jealous!

“And they made an extra video for foreigners on Mirinae Trailer.”

Moviegoer went to the YouTube channel [Mirinae Trailer]. There was another video uploaded at a similar time under the [Play MOEB-436] video.

“Here is a video titled ‘Before Watching Play MOEB-436’. It's a video that explains Korean folktales or monsters for foreigners who don't know much about them. They probably explained Jangsanbeom, which is the core of this play, without giving too much away by adding other monsters’ explanations as well.”

-I saw that too. I wondered why they uploaded it.

-222 Why Korean monsters all of a sudden?? But I didn't know it would be connected like this…!

-It must be hard to be a fan of Lee Seo-jun as a foreigner.

-Why?

-He has so many Korean works! (Then learn Korean!) ? Oh? It's a historical drama? (Then learn Korean history!) ? Uh… It's based on a Korean folk tale? (…Well, study hard)

-Lol, you probably know more about Korea than me.

-It's a bit different from The Royal Physician.

A moviegoer said with a laugh.

“That's true. There are works that are fun to watch without knowing the history, like The Royal Physician, and there are works that are fun to watch only if you know the folk tale, like this play.”

-Yeah, it would be less fun if you don't know who Jangsanbeom is.

-If you don't know, you can just watch it several times, like The Mirror!

-22 It would be fun even if you know who Jangsanbeom is.

-Did they do a curtain call?

Moviegoer smiled brightly and showed several photos on the monitor.

Wow!

The viewers’ eyes sparkled.

“Yes! They did a curtain call! They allowed filming, so I took some photos too! The actors, of course, and the music team, the art team, they all came up. They looked so relaxed, like high school students. I was surprised. I remembered that they were high school students who made such a fun play and I was even more amazed!”

Moviegoer started to get excited.

“Especially Lee Seo-jun, he looked like Jangsanbeom, but he had a soft vibe unlike his character in the play! He seemed to have snapped out of his immersion in no time, even though it didn't feel like that much time had passed! Seeing that difference in front of my eyes, I felt like I understood why everyone was crazy about Lee Seo-jun!”

Moviegoer rambled on his thoughts and then twitched his body. He must have talked too hard. He coughed awkwardly and smiled sheepishly.

“I'm sorry. I got too excited…”

-No, it was interesting.

-22 I'm just jealous.

-I wish I had a sibling like Moviegoer's…

-Moviegoer's sibling, will you be my sister?

Moviegoer laughed and then turned serious.

“No. Absolutely not. My sibling will continue to do my ticketing for me… right? Anyway, absolutely not! This is the end of today's review. It's already this late. You all have important schedules tomorrow, right? Well then, I sincerely thank the actors of Mirinae High School and the music team, the art team for showing us the play MOEB-436 and end the broadcast.”

-Tomorrow's schedule?

-Important thing? I don't have any.

-Me neither.

Moviegoer was about to end the broadcast after mentioning each name of the Mirinae Arts High School students who appeared on YouTube and thanking them when he blinked his eyes.

“…Tomorrow is Seo-jun's birthday photo book and cheering stick pre-sale day, right?”

At his puzzled words, the chat room paused for a moment.

-…Oh!

-…Uh!

-…I forgot!
