NOVPUBThe shadow of faith (2)
‘I’m curious. ‘What kind of answer will you give?’
Director Ko Jin-hoo stared at Han Yu-il’s face.
He was sincere when he said he was the only fan. Director Ko has been watching Yoo Il’s work for quite some time.
So I wanted to know more.
About why he chose Soo-hyeon over other characters.
He looked at Yuil with a mixture of concern and anticipation.
Yuil looked at the translucent window floating in front of him. Above the window, a character introduction written in the plan appeared.
【[Lee Soo-hyun, 27 years old male.
When I was five years old, my parents came to the small island of Haseokdo for some reason. From then on, his life began to quietly fall apart. Su-hyeon was 18 years old and was a strong worker on Ha Seok-do until he escaped the island. The person who saw the most and lost the most.]】
For a lead character, it wasn’t a very detailed introduction.
However, Yuil realized something after reading the scenario.
– This character clearly has a hidden side.
Yuil slowly opened his mouth.
“···First of all, while reading the scenario, I thought that the character Soo-hyeon was more complex than other characters.”
“complicated?”
Go Jin-hoo tilted his head.
“Um... well. Well, if he is complex, he is a complex character. But if you think about it that way, aren’t other characters similar~?”
In response to Go Jin-hoo’s words, the assistant director made eye contact with the director as if to agree with him.
“It’s funny to ask this question in the scenario we wrote, but I’m a bit curious about what aspect of ‘Soo-hyeon’ was so attractive to Yoo Il compared to the other main characters.”
Unless they were actors with a lot of experience, it was a daunting question.
But Han Yu-il still looked at him with clear eyes.
“I thought as I read it. “The most contradictory character in < The Shadow of Faith> is Soo-hyeon.”
“hmm···.”
“And that contradiction comes from ‘loss.’”
Yuil continued speaking slowly.
“Soo-hyeon is a character who had to spend her childhood in a closed space and an abnormal pseudo-religious group. He has no time to make value judgments about right or wrong, and he believes everything they say to be true.”
Go Jin-hoo, who had been listening to Yuil’s words with an unreadable expression, soon began to nod slowly.
“When I escaped the island at an age when I was about to become an adult, I must have lived a completely rock-bottom life.”
“···uh? wait for a sec.”
Go Jin-hu’s eyes narrowed.
“That shouldn’t have been in the plan, right?”
“Oh, that’s right.”
Yuil handed over the plan, which was well placed in the file, to the director.
“It’s not in the plan, but I added a little bit while reading the scenario.”
“···!”
The plan handed over by Han Yu-il was dense with text. The assistant director who was reading the plan was a little shocked.
‘what’s this?’
This is the first time in my life that I have seen an actor, even one whose casting has not yet been confirmed, use something like this.
‘You analyzed this to this extent?’
But his surprise did not end there.
“Well, since we don’t have enough time, shall we do the reading first?”
“great.”
And in an instant, the faint smile on Yuil’s face disappeared.
He was staring into space with a bored face, then opened his mouth with a dry face.
“···Ah, introduction. “My name is Lee Su-hyeon.”
It wasn’t just the smile that was peeling off.
Leisure and flexibility, consideration for others...
In other words, he had been stripped of his social skills.
“Oh, right. Didn’t I tell you? Mom and Dad, both of them are cults. “It still is.”
Yuil Han nodded and spoke with his mouth slightly open.
The assistant director looked closely at Yoo Il’s acting.
There is no change in facial expression, but the speed of the dialogue has sped up slightly.
The one and only ‘Suhyeon’ had a calm and dry face.
But why? He somehow felt threatened by Yuil.
The assistant director wiped away the goosebumps that had appeared on his forearms.
“I don’t know if he’s still alive.”
I saw the assistant director. The corners of his mouth turn up ever so slightly.
‘···!’
He quickly focused his attention on the plan Yuil had written down.
[He has a severe defense mechanism due to trauma and has a personality with high alertness and sensitivity. He covers these attributes with a rough yet dry attitude.
A person who stands on the border between good and evil, helper and villain...]
The assistant director, who had been reading the small letters that filled the margins as if fascinated, finally came to his senses after hearing Director Ko Jin-hoo’s words.
“great. “Let’s try scene 34 as well.”
Yu Il, who quickly flipped through the script, rested his chin and took a slanted stance.
His gaze was in empty space.
‘I haven’t even read the script properly yet...?’
Contrary to the assistant director’s worries, Yuil immediately opened his mouth.
“Ah, what is it...”
Yuil scratched his forehead with his fingertips.
Because it was so natural, the assistant director realized too late that it was a line.
“···I don’t know what we’re doing right now.”
The calm tone gradually becomes more emotional.
“The reporter can’t trust a scoundrel like me, is that something?”
It was definitely not a threatening tone. Rather, it was calm.
however···
‘···scary.’
The assistant director turned away without realizing it.
It was a reaction that came without my knowledge.
‘By the way, have you memorized the entire script?’
···Ah, no way.
Before I knew it, Director Ko Jin-hoo had adjusted his posture and was looking at Yu Yu-il.
A strangeness appeared in his eyes as he looked at Yuil.
After Han Yu-il left, the assistant director glanced at director Ko Jin-hoo.
“···Director, how are you feeling?”
It was a question with many implications.
Director Ko Jin-hoo continued to crouch. When the assistant director approached him with worried eyes, director Ko Jin-hoo moved his body as if bouncing.
“haha!”
Leaving behind the assistant director who was clutching his heart in surprise, Go Jin-hu smiled with a face like a hungry raccoon.
“···I like it even more when I see it in person.”
When I first heard that he wanted to play Suhyeon, it was director Ko Jin-hoo who was very nervous.
But after seeing it with his own eyes, he had no choice but to make up his mind.
The assistant director also had similar thoughts. However, he was thinking in a slightly different direction than the director.
It’s not for nothing that there’s a lot of gossip in the entertainment industry. Once they became popular, there were many people who forgot about their rookie days and started straining their necks.
‘Han Yu-il... It was true that he had a good personality.’
The assistant director handed coffee to Ko Jin-hoo with a more relaxed expression.
Somehow, I had a good feeling about this drama as well.
*
On my way home after a meeting.
Yuil answered the phone.
– One day bro!
Harang, who suddenly called, shouted cheerfully.
– I am independent!
“Independent?”
Kim Harang said that she had finally settled down with her dorm life and that she had just finished decorating the house.
-···Anyway, bro, come play!
“okay. “Tell me the date.”
– I can do it today too!
‘···!’
So Yuil ended up going to an unplanned housewarming party. And at Kim Harang’s minimally decorated house, he met an unexpected person.
‘···uh?’
“Why bro...”
Han Yu-il blinked with a bewildered expression.
Park Young-hyun, who was putting a chocolate-covered cookie in his mouth, smiled awkwardly.
‘Were you two close...?’
No, I’ve never even heard of a point of contact.
Kim Harang put her face in front of Yoo Il and said.
“This time, I filmed a variety show with Younghyun hyung!”
“...?”
【We appeared together in episode 72 of < Peer Gourmet>, which aired on the OTube channel.】
‘Those two?’
【< Peer Gourmet> is famous for its unusual appearance conditions. Two guests who have no contact with each other mainly appear...】
Harang’s round eyes were half-folded when he saw Han Yu-il’s blank face.
“what! “I haven’t seen this guy~!”
‘···.’
Han Yu-il began to make excuses as best he could.
“It’s too much~ I watch every drama that says someone is appearing~”
···Of course, it didn’t work well.
Harang, who had been teasing Yoo Il for so long, jumped out like a bullet when the bell rang.
Kim Harang proudly held out the bag, saying that she had ordered it from the restaurant most loved by Black C members. After checking the delivered food, Younghyun asked seriously.
“Can I eat this?”
“Why not?”
“First of all, I’m controlling my diet...”
Park Young-hyun muttered quietly, unable to take his eyes off the chicken and tteokbokki. I could see in her eyes that she was suffering from an internal conflict.
“Ah, I just need to work out hard tomorrow.”
“I guess you don’t need to go on a diet.”
Younghyun looked at Kim Harang’s thin body and muttered with gloomy eyes.
From what I’ve heard, it seems like you had a hard time eating so little that it wasn’t noticeable during < Gourmet of the same age>.
The half-and-half chicken and tteokbokki that Kim Harang ordered were very delicious. I was proud that it was a delicious restaurant.
It was Kim Harang who broke the silence between them as they ate quietly.
“Aren’t you a bit bored?”
“no.”
“Aren’t you bored?”
Park Young-hyeon and Han Yu-il shook their heads at the same time.
It seemed that Harang was not used to eating in silence.
“···Shall we do Shasta Live?”
When Park Young-hyun heard those words, he jumped up in his place. But even that couldn’t break Kim Harang’s stubbornness.
“Younghyun hyung! “You have to do things like this to improve.”
“...It wouldn’t be fun.”
“I think it’s just mukbang, mukbang!”
And Kim Harang picked up her cell phone.
.
.
.
Same time.
Kim Harang’s fans, who were wandering around looking for rice cakes even in the late evening, entered Labang with their eyes lit up by the sudden Shasta alarm.
And the live comment window began to be filled with comments left by those who were shocked.
┗ ?????
┗ Eng
┗ What am I looking at now?
┗ ㅁㅊ
┗ Huh
It was a combination I couldn’t believe even when I saw it with my own eyes.
-The brothers have brought home a housewarming party!
– Hello, this is Han Yu-il.
-···This is Park Young-hyun.
And the three’s live... turned off as soon as it started.
-···But is this coming out well?
– huh!
Yu Il, who had been tilting his head while holding his cell phone close to his face, turned off the broadcast.
┗?!?!?!
┗ No, guys, come back
┗ ㄱㅇㅇㅠㅠㅠㅜ
This was the birth of a meme that would later circulate on Blue Chat for a long time.
The broadcast resumed one minute later.
Han Yoo-il was seen smiling as if he was embarrassed, Park Young-hyeon had a nervous face, and Kim Ha-rang was looking at the camera with bright eyes in the middle.
They were three people with strangely different drawing styles, but they subtly got along well together. Those who were shocked at first gradually began to get used to it, and all kinds of comments began to appear in the comment section.
– Younghyun keeps saying I have to go on a diet, but I don’t eat~
-···Because I have a body that gains weight easily...
┗ Ugh, that’s ridiculous.
┗ Younghyun is thinㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
┗ What the hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Younghyun Park’s face brightened slightly as he read the comment.
After that, the three people’s communication broadcast under the pretense of a mukbang continued for about 30 minutes.
– Oh, do you want me to dip the chicken in tteokbokki soup?
Surprisingly, the person who read the comments the best was Han Yu-il. He held up a piece of his breast meat, dipped it in tteokbokki soup, and then held it up for the camera.
┗ Huh
┗ Just one bite
┗ It’s really delicious
Crispy, crunchy.
The chicken, slightly coated in red soup, popped into my mouth and made an appetizing sound.
– Oh, it’s really delicious?
– iced coffee! This was a great combination of our members~!
┗ Hahahaha ㄹㅇIs this a mukbang hahahaha
┗ Yuil is doing ASMR
┗ Why is Harang feeling sad lol?
┗ Guys, why didn’t I call you?
┗ I just ordered chicken after watching this.
The surprise live broadcast was a hot topic both during and after the broadcast. All morning, three labangs were posted on Blue Chat’s real-time search terms.
Recordings and captures of live broadcasts also became popular posts in the community.
– No, guys.
[(Live broadcast capture)
Since when have these guys been friends???]
┗ Weren’t Rang and Yul originally close?
┗┗ ㅇㅇ Correct
┗ Park Young-hyun is really surprising.
┗┗ I guess we became friends after filming together..
┗┗ ㅁㅊ What is affinity?
┗┗ Yes, our Kim Daeng Daeng..
┗ All three of them spoke comfortably with each other, which was nice to see ㅠㅠ
– I’m really crying.
[I couldn’t watch Labang because of my part-time job]
┗ Me too... This is the first time I’ve cried while watching a recording.
┗ Doesn’t Harang seem especially excited?
┗┗ Maltese having fun among his brothers
┗┗ ㅇㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
┗ Now that I think about it, all three of them look like puppies.
┗┗ Same as Maltese Samoyed Husky
┗┗ Oh, it’s perfect
– You guys don’t watch this.
[(Live broadcast capture)
After watching it at night, I ordered chicken;;]
┗ I’m ordering this too.
┗ This is a really dangerous broadcast;;ㄷㄷ

The day after the live broadcast gained unintended popularity, Yu Il, who was exercising, heard his cell phone ringing.
‘···hmm?’
It was a call from director Ko Jin-hoo.
