Chapter 332:
Chapter 332
A few hours ago.
Seo-jun arrived at the filming site with Ahn Da Ho.
“Hello!”
Everyone smiled and greeted the actor who always came early.
“Thank you for your hard work today. Jun.”
“Don’t worry! I’ll do my best!”
Seo-jun, who greeted the director Jeffrey, the nning team leader of Bearound, and the staff, headed to the set.
“Wow…”This set was also more realistic than reality, so it was fun to watch.
‘No, it’s not. It’s hard to see this in reality… It’s like a movie.’
It looked like a cave made of rubble from copsed buildings.
The debris that seemed to be walls and ceilings formed a cave, and there were sharp iron bars sticking out dangerously.
There were also goods from shops that must have been shiny new products a while ago, crushed under the rocks.
“Doesn’t it look like an ant nest, Da Ho hyung?”
The cave that was narrow and wide without any regrity looked like an ant nest.
“That’s right.”
Ahn Da Ho nodded in agreement with Seo-jun’s words.
It was like looking at a cross-section of an ant nest with one side of the wall made of ss.
Some of the blocked paths were made so that the actors could make their own way, and the set could also be cut into several parts for filming in different directions.
The staff were busy checking the set that was attached and detached.
“Move part 1!”
“Part 1 moving! Back off!”
As one of the staff instructed, the staff around them backed off and one side of the set moved.
Slowly, part of the set separated like a piece of cake and started to move.
“Part 1 movingplete!”
“Part 2 moving starts!”
The staff ignored the falling dust and moved parts 2 and 3 in turn.
“…It’s like a transforming robot.”
Ahn Da Ho chuckled in agreement with Seo-jun’s remark.
Seo-jun, who was watching the set for a while, greeted the actors who came into the filming site.

Before filming began.
Davis Garrett nced over his script.
There were clichés in disaster movies, even though they were twisted a lot these days.
The main character who is the most reliable and tries to save others in a disaster movie.
The supporting character who helps the main character.
The character who causes an ident and puts people in danger.
The selfish character who only thinks about himself.
Among them, Raymond Wish, yed by Davis Garrett, was a main character who acted as a leader in escaping from the mall.
‘He’s the kind of character who doesn’t get shot or die even if he does, and moves with fatal wounds and finally saves everyone and bes a hero.’
[Survivors] was edited to start from when Raymond Wish visited ‘Galleria Mall’ with his family, and then showed the past of thest four people left in the middle until the end.
There, Seo-jun Lee yed Lee Hyun-woo, a nuisance character who couldn’t move in time due to mental shock.
Jackson Miller and Cynthia Lindberg were helpers of the main character. And Ian Weaver was a character who symbolized ‘hope in disaster’ that had to be saved.
Even at a nce, Davis Garrett was a little bothered by those roles that anyone could tell.
He knew that clichés became clichés because they were the most stable and popr, so Davis Garrett didn’tpletely ignore them.
‘Well, this much is okay.’
Still, Davis Garrett tried to make Raymond Wish’s t character three-dimensional by asionally showing subtle actions.
A movement so weak that it could be ignored.
‘I hope someone notices…’
Improvisation also required an actor who could cooperate.
Davis Garrett had failed to show his whole character because of improvisation that didn’t match before.
***
It had been over two weeks since he filmed with Davis Garrett.
During that time, Seo-jun felt subtlety in Davis Garrett’s actions.
Raymond Wish’s footsteps, tone, expression, etc., who acted with Davis Garrett. Raymond Wish on set seemed slightly different from the character he felt in the script.
Lee Hyun-woo, who wore a mask upside down, watched Davis Garrett walking ahead.
‘So…’
Look at that.
He turned on the shlight he had taken during evacuation and walked through a ce that looked like a dangerous cave.
There was a slight haste in Raymond Wish’s footsteps.
Lee Hyun-woo, who was immersed in himself, walked slowly as if he was dragged.
The three actors also walked cautiously step by step ording to their roles.
Only Raymond Wish seemed impatient.
Raymond Wish in the script sometimes looked back and checked on people with concern. But Raymond Wish’s eyes when he looked back…
‘Are they a bit cold?’
That Raymond Wish’s appearance that wasn’t seen in the script was very strange, and interesting.
‘Is this what Davis meant by improvisation.’
The history of ‘Raymond Wish’ that was not revealed in the script.
When he was born, how he grew up, what school he graduated from, and how he became a soldier.
Why he had to retire.
It was too trivial and detailed for Director Jeffrey to make, but it was an indispensable story for the formation of the character.
Seo-jun was curious about ‘Raymond Wish’ that Davis Garrett made.
Davis Garrett kept giving signals. But it seemed like no one noticed because it was a signal that could be reversed at any time.
‘Or maybe everyone is too focused on the script.’
Everyone knew how ‘Raymond Wish’ would appear as much as they read the script.
Of course, it was most important to know the script well for filming a movie, but there was nothing less tense than a predetermined future.
So Seo-jun decided to treat ‘Raymond Wish’ walking ahead as a stranger he didn’t know.
He saw him for the first time at ‘Galleria Mall’ today, and he didn’t know if he could trust him or not.
He only knew his name and didn’t know what kind of personality he had.
So Seo-jun erased half of the script he remembered.
He became ‘Lee Hyun-woo’ who didn’t know anything.
And then, nk.
The signal sounded and the floor of the set shook three secondster.
Seo-jun crouched down and trembled as in the script.
Jackson Miller, Cynthia Lindberg, and Ian Weaver headed to Lee Hyun-woo’s side as in the script.
“Uh… uh…”
Lee Hyun-woo crouched as if he couldn’t crouch any more.
Darkness.
It was darkness.
The ck darkness that came with the shaking opened its mouth and ate his mom and dad, and finally came to eat him.
He trembled with fear that filled his head. He breathed heavily and groaned.
“Hey. Are you okay?”
“Breath. Breathe slowly.”
Two people spoke with worried voices, but nothing reached Hyun-woo Lee’s ears or eyes.
Darkness.
Darkness.
Darkness.
“Uh… Uh…”
In a narrow and blocked cave.
Only Hyun-woo Lee’s groaning sound scratched their ears.
It irritated the retired soldier’s nerves.
His heart raced as he remembered his post-traumatic stress disorder from his overseas deployment.
Raymond Wish clenched and unclenched his fists nervously.
His nerves were already on edge from the bomb sounds, the ground shaking, the blood and the screams.
And Hyun-woo Lee’s faint breathing was like a thorn in Raymond Wish’s side.
Strangely enough.
Even though Jackson Miller and Cynthia Lindberg had louder voices, Hyun-woo Lee’s thin breathing bothered him the most.
It gave him goosebumps.
He wanted to rip his ears off.
But still, Raymond Wish endured.
He remembered that Hyun-woo Lee was a young civilian and a weakling.
He endured,
Endured, and endured,
Until he exploded.
“Can’t you shut up!”
The faces of the three actors were startled as they passed by Davis Garrett’s sight.
At the end of them, there was a cowering creature that flinched.
Now it was his turn.
Seo-jun Lee or
Hyun-woo Lee.
His improvised acting would change ordingly.
“Uh… Uh… Aaah…!”
A faint moan was heard.
A scream full of pain was heard.
Ha ha.
This was it.
Davis Garrett was thrilled to the point of shivering.
It was rare to find an actor who matched his improvisation so well from the first time.
He moved his steps toward Hyun-woo Lee, who was having a seizure, with a smug smile on his face.
He couldn’t stop his acting here with an actor who epted his improvisation so well.
***
Seo-jun Lee thought ‘here ites’ when he heard Raymond Wish’s shout.
His heart was pounding. He enjoyed the unpredictable improvisation.
But Seo-jun Lee didn’t show his joy outwardly.
He thought and acted like Hyun-woo Lee.
No.
He was already Hyun-woo Lee.
***
Raymond Wish walked toward Hyun-woo Lee with rough steps.
The three actors could only stare nkly at the sudden situation.
Raymond Wish grabbed Lee Hyun-woo’s shoulder and made him lift his head.
Then he grabbed his cor and growled.
The shlight that fell from Raymond Wish’s hand spun around and the dazzling light scattered everywhere, making them dizzy.
“Shut your mouth! Do you think anyone is fine here?!”
“Huk… Hup…”
Lee Hyun-woo’s breathing was interrupted by Raymond Wish’s loud voice.
His head hung loosely in Raymond Wish’s hand.
His eyes met Lee Hyun-woo’s dead eyes.
His unfocused gaze seemed to say that he didn’t care if he lived or died.
That dark pupil without any light scratched Raymond Wish’s temper.
He felt a deep trauma that he thought he had forgotten or erased while living with his family crawling up from his stomach like a worm.
Raymond Wish’s face twisted fiercely.
The characters created by Davis Garrett and Seo-jun Lee shed violently and created sparks.
Very hot sparks.
***
Andrew Walker grabbed Vanessa Olsen’s arm.
Vanessa Olsen’s hand covered his slightly trembling small hand.
It was strange.
It was scary.
But,
…it was amazing.
Andrew Walker’s heart thumped.
Davis Garrett and Seo-jun Lee seemed to be in apletely different world.
No, they had been like that until now, but today they were even more unlike the people he knew.
They were just Raymond Wish and Lee Hyun-woo.
The Raymond Wish who seemed to burn himself at any moment and the Lee Hyun-woo who had already died with empty eyes came and went.
Everyone forgot to breathe as they watched the two actors in a scene that they couldn’t see in a normal shooting set.
It was a pity that if the time had been longer, one of the two actors would have raised their hand to stop the shooting or Jeffrey Rodex, who had been staring at the monitor without blinking, would have shouted cut.
Fortunately, there was an actor who had shot with Davis Garrett before.
Mn Chellen, who had been watching the two actors’ improvisation from the closest ce, came to his senses.
He knew it would explode sooner orter, but he didn’t expect it to be so sudden.
And he never imagined that they would change their character personalities.
But Mn Chellen didn’t want to make this scene into a wasted scene either.
‘Even if they shoot again, they will do well.’
He smiled softly to himself.
Mn Chellen knew very well that he couldn’t do improvisation like Davis Garrett or Seo-jun Lee.
He just,
“Stop it! This is not the time for this!”
He had no choice but to pull out the appropriate lines from the script by wracking his brain.
It was ironic that it was Raymond Wish’s line.
Raymond Wish, who was about to turn his eyes, caught his gaze and breathed heavily.
He threw Lee Hyun-woo away.
Lee Hyun-woo fell to the ground without a sound and dust rose.
Andrew Walker ran to him in surprise.
In the meantime, Cynthia Lindberg, who had immersed herself in her character, also ran to Lee Hyun-woo with her heart pounding.
An uneasy wind blew among the survivors.
***
Silence fell on the set.
Jeffrey Rodex, the director who barely shouted cut, thought he heard something breaking.
