A few days later, Yeo Woon headed to the film company for the role audition. As soon as Yeo Woon stepped into the film company, an employee, seemingly informed in advance, led her to a meeting room.
When she opened the door and entered, there was a young man, a man who could be easily recognized as a director, and Seol Ji Oh sitting inside.
Yeo Woon was a bit surprised to see Seol Ji Oh but quickly raised her voice and greeted brightly. After all, energy is life for an actor.
“Hello. I’m Yeo Woon.”
“Yes. Please have a seat.”
A man, who seemed to be of the same age as Yeo Woon, spoke in a businesslike manner. As Yeo Woon pulled out a chair and sat down, the director looked at her intently, seemingly observing her face.
Yeo Woon was a little nervous, but she didn’t let it show and gave a bright smile.
But I think I’ve seen this face somewhere before. Who was it……?
As Yeo Woon was trying to recall in her head, the director spoke first.
“You look better in person than in photos.”
“Ah, thank you.”
While propping up his chin, the director flipped through the profile Yeo Woon had submitted for the audition.
“So, you’ve debuted…… 8 years ago. Lead roles in… hmm.”
Yeo Woon bit her lip, bothered by her thin filmography considering her career. The director raised his eyebrows once and then spoke to the man next to him.
“Ji Wook, the camera.”
At the director’s words, the man sitting next to him aimed the camera at Yeo Woon. Then, Yeo Woon’s face appeared clearly on the large TV screen hanging on the wall. The director looked at the screen and spoke to Yeo Woon.
“Would you like to read the script on the table? You can start as soon as you’re ready.”
Yeo Woon carefully picked up the script. She took a breath, then skimmed the overall context with her eyes and caught the emotional line.
The stage direction began with “she seems to be yelling in anger.” Yeo Woon first controlled her breathing and then started her acting.
“Do you have any idea how much the contract I gave up for you today was worth? But what drives me crazy! Is that none of this seems to matter to you.”
“Miss Cha Yeon Ju.”
Seol Ji Oh read the opponent’s lines. Yeo Woon took a deep breath and expressed more emotions as she spoke.
“I like you. I’m telling you, I like you! Does this even make sense?”
Suddenly, the director cut off her acting.
“Ah, that’s good. But could you possibly try it with a different feel?”
Yeo Woon blinked her eyes and read the lines again.
If not that feeling just now……, should I try to remove some emotions.
Yeo Woon quickly memorized the few lines and let go of the script in her hand. She looked at the camera and began her acting.
“What drives me crazy! Is that none of this seems to matter to you!”
“Miss Cha Yeon Ju.”
Yeo Woon looked at Seol Ji Oh. She saw Seol Ji Oh, who was looking at her with an emotionless face.
Yeo Woon held her breath as if she had just realized a huge fact. Her eyes, looking at Seol Ji Oh, trembled slightly, and a hollow laugh burst from her mouth.
After a brief silence, Yeo Woon spat out her lines as if speaking to herself, not the other person.
“I like you. I’m telling you, I like you. Does this…… make sense?”
Even after her lines were over, the director, with his chin propped up, continued to look at Yeo Woon’s face. Yeo Woon felt awkward under the intense gaze and smiled awkwardly.
“Um… shall we try the next lines?”
Afterwards, Yeo Woon read several other lines a few more times, and each time the director looked at Yeo Woon with an inscrutable expression.
Am I doing this right?
Yeo Woon glanced at Seol Ji Oh from time to time. Although Seol Ji Oh didn’t say much, just matching her lines, seeing a familiar face seemed to ease her tension slightly.
After about an hour of auditions, the director showed a smile for the first time when he was about to say that it was all over.
“You did well. In fact, I was worried you might be nervous since you’re a huge fan of Seol Ji Oh.”
“Excuse me?”
For a moment, Yeo Woon looked at the director, doubting her ears.
A big fan of Seol Ji Oh…? Who? Me?
“I wished for an actor who is a real fan of Seol Ji Oh to play the stalker role. It turns out, Seol Ji Oh recommended you, Yeo Woon.”
Yeo Woon blinked her eyes. As she wondered what all this was about, Seol Ji Oh shrugged his shoulders.
Yeo Woon asked in confusion.
“Ah, Director. So, this role is… a stalker of Seol Ji Oh?”
“Well, strictly speaking, not a stalker but a character with a strong obsession. Or should I say, miserable.”
Yeo Woon mulled over the lines she had acted out earlier in her mind. No wonder the lines were all about the male lead…
Yeo Woon was looking at Seol Ji Oh with a feeling of being tricked when the director suddenly asked a question.
“Have you ever had a crush?”
Yeo Woon blinked her eyes and tried to recall her memory. Was there a crush in her limited dating history? The fact that nothing came to mind immediately probably meant she hadn’t had one.
“No.”
“Really? Your acting was good for someone who hasn’t.”
