Chapter 68

Seo-jun tilted his head as he met the president of the Milky Way Center in the conference room.

Yes. Musicals and plays are also made into DVDs and sold. I want to make a DVD because its a waste to just watch it ourselves. And VOD too.

DVD.

Seo-jun pondered for a moment. The characteristic of a play was that there was no same stage. The same script, the same stage, the same props, but the actors mood and synergy varied from show to show. There was a clear difference even during practice. Seo-jun found it fun and regrettable.

He wished he could film it and make it into a movie when his older brothers and sisters did an impeccable performance. And then, on the next rehearsal stage, someone burst out laughing and the stage became a sea of laughter. That was also very good in its own way.

The feeling that the stage was really alive. As he practiced more and more, as the performance date approached, he looked forward to the stage he would create with his older brothers and sisters and in front of the audience.

He was going to leave such a stage on video! Seo-jun nodded his head repeatedly.

Im fine with it, but what about my sister and brothers?

The president smiled brightly at Seo-juns question. As soon as he brought up the DVD recording, the actors and the guardians all agreed without a single objection.

They all agreed.

Then Im okay too.

Seo-jun agreed and An Da Ho nodded his head. Since Seo-jun said he would do it, Cocoa Entertainment would definitely do it too, but they needed to discuss the contract terms and profit distribution.

Then Ill contact you soon.

Ill wait. But you have to tell me the name that will go on the pamphlet, that is, your stage name. Do you have a fixed stage name?

There wasnt much time left for the performance. Now they had to make promotional materials and pamphlets to give to the audience.

Im going to use the blue dragon picture that I used for the rehearsal stage last time. You just need to decide on your stage name.

At the presidents words, Seo-jun smiled a little shyly. He gathered with his mom and dad, Uncle Hee Sang, and Uncle Chan, and talked about his stage name. Among the many candidates, Seo-jun chose the one he liked the most.

Please make my stage name Na Jin.

The president blinked his eyes. The name, which sounded like a place name, reminded him of a person when he was with Seo-jun.

Thats

Do you know?

Seo-jun giggled.

The stage became more and more glamorous from the day the contract for the DVD was discussed. As if to show the power of the generous budget, devices that seemed to be seen only on foreign famous stages appeared and the childrens practice became more and more perfect with the moving props.

Choi So Young looked at the stage with a disgusted face. She had already appeared in six plays at the age of 12. Among them, there was a musical for children. But she had never seen such a stage that put so much effort. It was the same for her acting academy friend, Lee Da Jin, who did two works together.

I guess Ill get emotionally involved automatically at this rate.

Thats right. But, emotional involvement is the best.

Are you talking about Seo-jun?

Really, its amazing. I dont know how he can do that with just his voice.

Choi So Young recalled the practice. The scene-by-scene practice for two weeks was amazing, but the group practice was decisive.

I wonder if I need that level of acting skills to enter Hollywood.

Maybe.

Ill never be able to go in my life.

Lee Da Jin laughed at Choi So Youngs disgusted look.

Well, it was amazing. We all made a wish once.

Da Jin, you. You really wanted to make a wish then, right?

Yes!

Lee Da Jin nodded his head without a moments delay at Choi So Youngs words. The two laughed at the ridiculous answer.

It was after a few group practices.

Lee Da Jin raised her hand with a snap as she ate her snack. Lee Da Jin couldnt stand it because she was curious.

Her friend, Choi So Young, who was no different from usual in other acting, changed into a really cool acting when the blue dragon appeared.

As if she was really wishing for something. And the blue dragon also responded with an amazing atmosphere. It seemed like the blue dragon would really grant her wish when she saw that scene.

When she went to a temple or a church, even if she didnt believe in that religion, even if she had doubts, she wanted to make a wish like that. Lee Da Jin wanted to make a wish to the blue dragon.

I want to make a wish too!

What?

Park Ji Soo, the director, asked back at Lee Da Jins incomprehensible words. Oops. I unknowingly said what was on my mind. Lee Da Jin quickly added this and that.

Seo-juns acting is so real that Im curious what it feels like to act with him! So Youngs skills have improved a lot, right?

At that, the children raised their hands one by one and the guardians silently applauded Lee Da Jins words.

Park Ji Soo looked at Seo-jun, who was eating pizza. Seo-jun, who was eating deliciously, raised his head at his own story.

To be honest, Park Ji Soo was also amazed by Choi So Youngs acting skills, who became a child who really believed in the blue dragon in the scene where the blue dragon appeared.

But in the previous scene, it was the usual skill. If Seo-juns acting skills raise So Youngs acting skills, what would happen if he acted with other children?

Park Ji Soo put down the pizza piece he had in his hand and looked at Seo-jun and the children who were shining their eyes and asked Seo-jun.

How about it? Seo-jun.

Im fine.

Seo-jun answered like that and looked at the children. Hmm. There are fourteen people excluding So Youngs sister. Doing it fourteen times is too much.

He checked the remaining props and skillfully divided them. Seo-jun asked.

Can I do it with four people?

Yes!

Lets do that.

They all nodded their heads. And soon the stage was decorated. The blue dragon appeared on the stage. The blue dragon, which the stage director had completed first and was still being revised, was the one that was taken from the amusement park parade.

The long and long beard stretched to both ends of the stage and the large and sharp eyes looked down at the stage and the audience.

The long and long body that swayed like a wave appeared on the screen.

The stage darkened, and Seo-jun, who was standing behind the board, grabbed the microphone. And the stage director pressed the switch he had made with his heart.

Blink,

The blue dragons eyes closed and opened.

Since then, the childrens skills seem to have improved a lot.

Well, its only for this play.

This experience is the foundation.

The guardians and the academy staff had a quiet conversation. As the academy staff said, the children became much better at emotional involvement in this play. They moved as if they were not acting, but living in a fairy tale.

When I asked how they could do that, they said they felt like the blue dragon was real and they felt like they were living in a world where the blue dragon existed on the stage.

My child was staring at the prop box the other day.

Prop box?

Yes. There were the dragon balls that the protagonist collected inside.

Oh. I see.

Yes. I feel like this could really grant our wishes. Should we try making one? I was thinking about it.

Kids tend to blur the line between reality and fantasy sometimes.

Honestly

Someone chuckled sheepishly.

They discussed how to keep their secret, bought snacks in turns, and became friends with the other parents.

I also make a wish whenever I see So-yeong making hers during the group practice.

Well, the Blue Dragon God does have an impressive presence.

Their conversation reached the ears of the director through the staff. His eyes sparkled once again.

***

Hey. Are you really going to watch this?

This was the cheapest one. Lets go to the PC room with the leftover money.

Im so embarrassed.

Kim Su-hans friend wiped his face with his hand. They had a summer vacation homework to watch a play or a musical. The school gave them a subsidy, so they could watch any show within a reasonable price range for free.

Come on, were high school students now. Isnt a childrens play too much?

Everything else was sold out. Lets just watch it and have fun.

He had a point, but his friend sighed again.

You know you have to write a review, right?

I know. Ill just write something like I found my inner child. Its not like the teacher knows the value of this play.

Yeah. Fine.

They had already reached the Galaxy Center, so it was too late to turn back. Kim Su-han and his friend entered the center.

This is a childrens play, right?

It is, but

There were a lot of adults. Some looked like they came in groups, and some were families. Half kids, half adults. His friend blinked his eyes and nodded.

Maybe the families and friends came to watch the kids who are performing.

Ah, that makes sense.

Well, its better than being the only two of us here.

There was a group that stood out among the audience. They had no kids, only adults.

Seo Eun-hye and Lee Min-joon held the pamphlets. Kim Hee-sang and Seo Eun-chan were there too, and the grandparents came along to watch their grandsons first play.

This must be Seo-jun.

There was a well-drawn dragon picture under the name Na Jin/8 years old. While everyone was focused on the pamphlet, Seo Eun-chan looked around.

But there are more people than I expected.

It seems like they are from the acting academy. Director.

Ahn Da Ho appeared out of nowhere. Seo Eun-chan gasped and clutched his heart. He felt like it was going to drop!

He ignored his brother and Seo Eun-hye asked.

The acting academy?

Seo-jun told some people that he was performing.

Ahn Da Hos eyes moved to the people who looked like directors and instructors. His mouth twitched slightly, as if he knew who was performing. They all kept their mouths shut, feeling like they were polishing their knives.

It was clear that they would choose to gain Seo-juns favor, rather than becoming the prey of the reporters.

Fortunately, they listened to my advice, and there were no articles or rumors. The kids who came with them dont seem to know either.

The kids they brought to show Seo-juns acting were bored, not knowing the truth. Some of them were looking at their phones.

Some students from the same academy complained that they had to watch the play just because one of them was performing. They didnt have to do that when it was their turn.

Seo Eun-chan calmed down his racing heart and asked.

Thats good, right?

Yes. Director.

Ahn Da Ho. How is Seo-jun?

Lee Min-joon, who greeted Ahn Da Ho with Seo-jun in the morning, asked as he pointed inside.

He said he needs to focus now, and asked me to keep away unless necessary.

I see.

When will the DVD be out?

The grandmother, who wanted to keep her grandsons play, asked Ahn Da Ho.

We decided to sell the recording of the best performance out of the eight shows. So I think it will be sold after the play is over.

Its still two months away.

Lee Min-joon and Seo Eun-hye folded their fingers and thought of the people they wanted to send the DVD to. They had to send it to the Brown Black members and to America.

[The play Spring will start soon. Please enter the theater, everyone.]

With the announcement, the staff opened the doors of the theater.

People holding their kids hands in one hand and the pamphlets in the other moved their steps into the theater.

They thought only the families and friends would come on the first day, but the spacious seats were barely filled.

The only audience who had no relation to the actors were the two male students who came to watch the play for their homework.

Unlike the parents who looked at the empty seats with regret, the kids were a bit nervous to see the people coming into the seats that were empty during the practice.

The kids who were laughing and talking loudly until a while ago became quiet, and Director Park Ji-su gathered their attention with her usual clap.

Are you all ready?

Yes!

The kids in well-finished hanboks answered.

The budget poured in, and the kids costumes changed too. When they first planned this play, they just hoped it would end well, but since some point, they tried to make it a real story.

Then, shall we cheer up?

At Director Parks words, the protagonist Choi So-yeong reached out her hand. Seo-jun and the kids gathered around and put their hands together.

The staff took pictures of Seo-jun and the kids smiling faces. It was the making film that would go into the DVD.

Spring!

Spring!

Fight!!

A thrilling chill ran up from their toes. The stage was about to start.

Seo-jun, holding a turned-off microphone, looked around. Everyones faces were full of tension and anticipation. But no one looked worried.

Seo-jun smiled at the sight. Seo-jun and the kids knew. How amazing the stage and the work they made were.

Lets begin!
