Chapter 325:


    Chapter 325


    A few moments later, the table was filled with the food they ordered.


    Milan Chellen smiled slightly as he watched the waiter leave the private room with a bit of excitement.


    I bet the news that were here will spread like wildfire.


    I know, right?


    The actors and the director exchanged various stories as they ate.


    They admired how Andrew handled his fork and knife with grace (his dad was proud) and asked Seo-jun how the filming in Korea was.


    Seo-jun answered with ease, as it was a question he got every time in both Korea and America.


    Davis Garret took a sip of red wine and said.


    Evan and Rachel did a cameo, right? Let me know if you have a good script next time. I think it would be a good experience to film abroad.


    Haha. Sure.


    The Korean directors would have been shocked to hear such a conversation.


    They talked happily about their past or recent works, and time flew by.


    What do you want for dessert?


    At his dads question, Andrew hesitated between chocolate and ice cream. Seo-jun noticed and smiled.


    Andy, do you want to split half and half?


    Can I?


    Sure.


    Andrew smiled brightly and nodded vigorously.


    Andrews dad smiled at the close relationship between his son and Seo-jun.


    When the dessert came out and Seo-jun and Andrew split the chocolate and ice cream, Davis Garret opened his mouth.


    You all probably know this, but Im going to do a lot of ad-libs when I film.


    Milan Chellen, who had worked with him before, just smiled, and Seo-jun and Vanessa looked at Davis Garret with a bit of nervousness.


    Andrew didnt know what it meant and blinked.


    The director gave me permission, so I hope you all can go along with me.


    Jeffrey Rodek nodded his head. He was curious.


    What kind of improvisation Davis Garret was talking about.


    Um. Does that mean we can also say lines that are not in the script?


    At Seo-juns question, Davis Garret nodded his head without hesitation.


    Of course. Im going to ad-lib, but if the other characters stick to the script, it wont make sense. Of course, Im not going to act recklessly. Ill cover you if youre having trouble.


    Davis Garret smiled meaningfully.


    Just try to act your character as freely as you can. Youll see what its like to not be bound by the script. Its rare to have such an opportunity where the production company and the director both allow it.


    Freely.


    Everyone in the room felt their hearts pounding.


    ***


    Seo-jun had a good time and returned to his accommodation, where Kim Jong-ho and manager Kim Sang-woo had arrived.


    Did you have fun?


    At Kim Jong-hos question, Seo-jun smiled broadly and nodded his head.


    Yes. Did you enjoy sightseeing?


    I think I walked around too much. Sang-woo already passed out. Thats why I told him to exercise more. Hes younger than me


    Seo-jun chuckled at Kim Jong-hos shaking his head.


    Kim Jong-ho had been traveling around LA during the day and practicing with the script of [Survivors] at night.


    He had so few lines and scenes that he should already know them by heart, but he read them until the script was worn out.


    Take it easy.


    I am taking it easy. I only look at it at night, what are you talking about.


    Kim Jong-ho flipped a page of the script and opened his mouth.


    When I first got a role with lines, I was really looking at it all day long. I still remember that line. It reminds me of those days. Back then, coming here was my dream


    The middle-aged actor who was about to fulfill his dream closed his mouth for a moment and looked at the young actor who made it possible.


    What kind of luck did he have to meet such a good actor?


    He remembered the boy who was fidgeting next to him when he filmed My Royal Physician.


    Im glad I switched seats then.


    Kim Jong-ho smiled softly and opened his mouth.


    This camera must be filming the making film for Korea promotion that they heard at the accommodation.


    They are all smart.


    Thats right.


    The two actors exchanged glances and shook hands with Jeffrey.


    Thank you for your hard work today. Jun. Kim.


    Thank you for having us.


    Well do our best!


    Seo-jun and Kim Jong-ho greeted Jeffrey and the planning team leader and looked around the set.


    Manager Lee Sang-woo also followed behind them with curious eyes.


    The camera followed them.


    There was nothing but surprises inside the studio. Lee Sang-woo exclaimed with his mouth wide open.


    /Hyung. This is really amazing./


    /I know./


    They couldnt help but admire the set that looked like a part of a huge shopping mall that had been cut out with a knife.


    And it wasnt just one or two stores, but a fairly large set.


    /Are these products on display real?/


    /Probably not./


    /But they look like real products./


    Not only the background of the set, but also the products inside seemed to shine brightly.


    It felt like they were in a real shopping mall wherever they looked.


    /So theyre going to destroy this place?/


    /Hollywood scale is no joke./


    Seo-jun also felt sorry for destroying such a nice set as Kim Jong-ho and Lee Sang-woo said.


    It looks like they worked really hard on it.


    /Uncle. Are we really going to break this? We can do it with CG, right?/


    /Or maybe they have prepared another set./


    Seo-jun and Lee Sang-woo nodded at Kim Jong-hos opinion. That seemed more likely.


    Kim. Can you spare me a moment?


    Ah, yes.


    As they were looking around the set, one of the staff called Kim Jong-ho.


    Im from the costume team. Can you try this on? We got it according to your size, but some of the others said it was too small. If theres nothing that fits among the spare costumes, we have to get it right away.


    Okay.


    Kim Jong-ho nodded his head as if he understood some of what he heard thanks to his studies.


    /Uncle. Should I go with you?/


    /Its okay. I just have to say if it fits or not. Sang-woo, you stay here too./


    /Yes./


    Kim Jong-ho headed to the dressing room with the costume team staff.


    They must have seen enough of the set, so Seo-jun and the two managers sat down on the prepared chairs and waited for Kim Jong-ho.


    /But what kind of clothes are they?/


    /Hmm. Should I go and see?/


    Manager Lee Sang-woo, who was a little anxious about leaving his actor alone, quickly headed to the dressing room.


    And then he came back shortly after with a chuckle.


    Seo-jun and Ahn Da Ho tilted their heads at Lee Sang-woos unexpected reaction.


    /Uncle Sang-woo. What kind of clothes are they that make you laugh like that?/


    /No, I just thought that the filming crew did a great job of reproducing them./


    Seo-jun and Ahn Da Ho blinked their eyes.


    Unless it was a really important prop, there was not much mention of it in the script, so Seo-jun couldnt guess what kind of clothes Kim Jong-ho would come out wearing either.


    After waiting a little longer, Kim Jong-ho came out wearing the clothes.


    /Seo-jun! Look at this!/


    He appeared laughing loudly, and Seo-jun and Ahn Da Ho were speechless.


    There he was, Kim Jong-ho, wearing a fluorescent orange hiking outfit that looked like a school uniform from his parents generation.
