Rebirth: King To Superstar Chapter 117
Advertisement
SMALL NOTICE- Alright guys, this is it. But one small request for me. Do not be too decisive about this part. I have never been to a set and learnt some stuff for the book through youtube videos. That's all. So my knowledge is small and it's mainly my imagination. Please be patient with me.
*********************************************
After they finished the dinner, Joon-won let the rich lady on the table handle the payment. Hea-Jung looked at him with a disgruntled expression and said while handing over her card to the waiter, "How can you let a lady pay, little brother? I am worried if any woman at all would like you after a single dinner."
Joon-won looked at her and replied, "I would have considered paying if one I had any interest in the opposite woman if not, I pay my half and get done. Two, if the other woman was poor and could not afford to pay for a meal. Knowing you, you have enough money to live happily for the rest of your life, even if you don't work. So take care of it for now." Hea-Jung just clicked her tongue and changed the topic.
"So, what are going to do for the rest of the day? Even if I would like to spend some time with you here as it's very bored around here, I should go back to the shoot because my shoot will begin in an hour or so."
Joon-won just shrugged and replied, "I don't know. I'll probably go back to the room and practice today's scene a little more and rest. There isn't much to do when the role is as small and direct as this one. You can just call me when I have to get there for the shoot and I'll be there."
Hea-Jung hummed a little and said while clapping her hand, "I know what you can do. Come with me to the set. You can see the set before it's your time to shoot and you will be able to understand the situation better around there. Also, the set we will be using for the scene tonight is ready yesterday itself, so you can even check that out. What do you say? Wanna come?"
Joon-won thought for a second and nodded. He already got the scene down for the shoot and so he would at most only just go and catch some sleep. Instead of that, he could go a few hours earlier to the shooting area and see how things are. After all, it was still his first time, and he was also curious about things.

Hea-Jung happily nodded and stood up as the server brought back her card. She waved her hand towards Han Ju, who was still sitting far from them, and said, "Alright then, let's go, Sister Han. Joon-won would be coming with us to the set too." Joon-won also stood up. He also noticed Han Ju startle a little when Hea-Jung said his name, but he didn't care much about it.
Han Ju nodded lightly and walked out of the restaurant as quickly as she could as if she was running away from something. At that moment, she didn't want to come across Joon-won as her mind was still slowly settling down and it seemed like it would break if she comes across him again.
All three of them got in the car and the silent ride started towards the film set. Joon-won just started listening to some music to calm his mind a little while Hea-Jung was busy scrolling through her social media account. After a few minutes, the car stopped, and they were already at the film set for the evening shoot. The town was pretty small and wouldn't take them much time to go around it completely in a car.
Joon-won took off his earphones and got down with Han Ju and Hea-Jung. He looked around and noticed they were in front of a small building. He also noticed security personnel around the area. It looked like they were in front of the film set.
He looked at Joon-won asking where they were and she replied, "They made this building into a police station. So this is our main set where most of the filming happens. I heard it used to be a reception hall, used to hold weddings and parties here. It's pretty big but our production only remodeled some part of the place into a police station." And they walked towards the entrance of the set. Joon-won was looking around, as there were so many RVs in the parking lot.
"Does everyone park here?"
"Of course not. This is only for the main cast and the higher-ups in the production crew. That's why you see so many RVs and fancy cars here. All of those are also rented. The main parking space for the rest is outside the main gates we passed through." Joon-won looked at the so-called reception hall, which was completely revamped and nothing looked like one. It looked like a legit police station from the outside. There were also a few police motorbikes parked near the entrance to the place, making it seem more believable.

As they walked up to the front, Han Ju, who was walking quicker than them, showed her ID and seemed to explain why he was there, as no one stopped from walking inside. As they walked inside, the scene became more chaotic as he saw people walking around. Some were shouting while giving out orders, some were in their own group. He noticed huge cameras and also other equipment. Everyone had tags indicating their role and Joon-won noticed Hea-Jung wearing one too.
"Looks like they are getting ready for the next scene. So how is it? The environment? It's a lotto taken for the first time. Even I had to pause a little and get used to it. So many things are happening in one type for one small scene. This is the amount of work that goes behind every scene and sometimes more if the scene and director ask for it. We had to shoot outside yesterday and imagine how that would look like." said Hea-Jung with a small smile when she saw Joon-won pause near the entrance itself.
As Joon-won was about to speak, they heard someone from behind asking them to move a little and he noticed they were blocking the entrance, making it completely inconvenient for others. They both moved to the side, and the people who asked them to move were part of the crew. They seemed very busy as they greeted Hea-Jung before walking off. Everyone was busy.
"It sure is a lot to take in. Seems like people are doing something or the other every second," he replied.
Hea-Jung nodded and said, "Alright let's stand to the side a little so that we don't come in the way to anyone." dragged him a bit more to the side, Han Ju was nowhere to be seen as she went to take care of some work. She was also a busy person, as she had to stay connected for Hea-Jung, who was more of an air-head with the crew.
"It looks like the actors themselves have the least work in production. We only act after all." he continued. Hea-Jung whipped her head towards him, feeling offended.
"You said something so offensive, you know? We also do some work. If some actors hear what you said, they would think you are rather disrespectful. Acting isn't as easy for everyone as it is for you. Some people find it hard. But what you said is also true, I guess. I mean, the audience only sees the actors on the big screen and not this all. That's why we have to do our absolute best to do complete justice for this." She acted offended at first but accepted what he said, too. She understood where Joon-won was coming from and couldn't wait for him to freeze like all the others at their first scene.
Joon-won nodded and continued to look at the set. He was captivated by everything. So many machines and stuff made it very interesting for him. After all, he was only a stage actor for so long that this was like some fresh air for him. A small smile came on his face as he anticipated his time in front of the camera.
Hea-Jung continued with a serious face, "Alright little brother, there are some rules and common things you need to know before you act. First, never be late for a shoot. Even if you are the main lead of the film, never be late. The directors would chew you out if you are. Next is your phone, it should be switched off. It affects something through radio waves, I forgot what. And then do not move when the assistant director shouts 'Action' if you are not acting. Even a slight noise after the action is very irritating for them. And the most common thing is, do not take pictures and stuff. That's all. There are more, but you'll learn as time goes on."
Joon-won nodded hearing her basic rules and so she continued, "Alright then, shall we go meet the director? I think he is in his room with the producers and his assistants. Sister Han just sent me a message saying it's ok to meet them." while checking her phone.
