《Debut or Die》336-352

Episode 336 of "Debuting Illness"
The film production company called the U.S. 10 days after Testa accepted the offer.
I think the shooting was already in full swing.
"I think we stepped in while the schedule was quite advanced.'
But you even offered me a cameo offer?
I thought this was a gesture of reconciliation and ambition, but I should open up other possibilities.
It could be for water.'
I thought I should mention to prepare my mind, but I didn't have to.
"We can wait for hours because we don't know what the order will be, even if it's just a passing scene. There's no reason why I missed the whole day."
"Oh, my."
"Of course, Hollywood may have a different system, but we'll definitely fall behind in our priorities, so consider...."
This is because Bae Se-jin is pouring out field problems like bombing on its own.
The atmosphere of "Movie cameo for refreshment in the middle of the tour" disappeared thanks to you. Everyone is ready to greet a new job like a newbie going out to a meeting.
In the meantime, Bae Se-jin is trying to fix it now.
"...but it could be good! Film acting is definitely charming!"
The effect was minimal.
"I guess so."
"I think it's a different matter than whether we can carry it out well."
"...I was an idol, too! You can do it!"
"It's hard to generalize because it's not the same person's case...."
"That's right. Let's cheer up!"
"...??"
Blocking Kim Rap-in, big Se-jin settled the atmosphere.
'Well blocked.'
Bae Se-jin seems to have wanted to persuade him until the end, but let's stop here.
I spent my time on the plane looking through the OST data sent by these guys.
Of course, it is English.
"I thought you wouldn't translate it." We're running out of time.'
The agency gave me a summary translation, but the quality was not very good. As soon as the label's independence is over, I should get a full-time professional interpreter first.
Fortunately, Cha Yu-jin and Sun Ah-hyun gave a briefing and everyone was familiar with the movie.
To sum up, this is it.
[The story of a delivery man who unexpectedly goes out into space and has a dangerous and exciting adventure through a warp gate]
I only borrowed the SF format, but the actual style seems to be a mixture of western and hero movies.
'And the universe is a worldview of the "Waste Factory" game series in this ruined story.'
I monitored "127 Section" and checked the words I saw a few times and the titles that appeared in the new game.
"It's a little confusing because it's English...".'
C, If you need a word explanation, I'll tell you...."
"Thank you, then."
"Yes!"
I listened to Sun Ah-hyun's explanation next to the plane and adjusted the arrangement.
Let's check what role we'll play as a cameo.
"Hmm... Do you want me to homage the game starting characters that I collaborated with before?"'
He appears briefly in the battle scene.
I don't have anything in particular to ask for. There was only one line.
I knew this would happen because the movie company bought worldview rights and there was no copyright problem. Because it was the expected draft, the action and side effects could be easily organized in my head.
"...hmm."
And predict.
"I think it'll be ridiculed if you nod."'
Isn't it too one-dimensional interpretation and intervention? And I'm worried about the makeup.

There are no Northeast Asians among the main characters.'
It's hard to make a good impact even if all seven of us come out at once, but it's a position where it's hard to avoid a sense of incompatibility.
"Well."
"Moo, are you Mundae?"
"Oh, I want to see a collection of scenarios."
I left the documentation about our appearance behind, and brought up the scenario summary again.
My brain was in a tight state.
It was 12 hours before I arrived in the U.S.
* * *
And finally arrived in the United States.
We moved in private quietly. Fortunately, there was nothing much that T1 had already hit the unexpected while drinking kimchi soup.
The first place I went in after that... It's a movie set all of a sudden.
That's funny.
"Oh... Aren't you going to have an OST meeting?"
"I heard that I can't change the schedule on the set. The schedule is completely divided by the hour."
Certainly, apart from the scale, the scene was quietly and gently being turned by people who knew their own business.
"......."
"...I thought it would be a disturbance."
Even Bae Se-jin seemed a little embarrassed. The person who was briefly attached as a guide to the scene laughed and spoke in Korean.
"This division of professional labor is Hollywood's unique advantage."
"Oh, yes."
And after a few words of explanation and greeting the assistant director... I just started waiting in the trailer.
"......."
"Well."
At this point, everyone might have noticed the atmosphere, and there were bitter smiles among the members.
"You're neglecting me."
"Right."
They take care of blankets and food pretty well, but the makeup hasn't started yet.
I think only our manager and the people in charge are running around.
"Is it going as expected?"
It didn't seem to have been checked properly. It's a bonus that I haven't received in Korea since I joined the first division. This is fun, too.
"The manager must be having a hard time."
"I guess we can't communicate well. Should I go out and come back?
It was when I was making my own plans, listening to some of the guys talking in their own way.
Cha Yu-jin in the next seat stabs her back.
"...?"
what is it.
When he looked at him, he murmured indifferently.
"This isn't normal!"
"Then?"
"It's a bad thing."
Cha Yu-jin went on to speak only with her mouth.
"Pretend you didn't hear it."
"...!"
[It's quite a classic method]]
Oh... I know.
"Are you ignoring our staff as if they didn't intend to?"'
This is beyond the fun line.
I crossed my arms.
"What's the evidence?"
[Actor is basically the best in Hollywood] But look at this treatment. They treat us like extras and props, not actors.]
"......."
That's plausible.
I saw earlier that you were so concerned about the time schedule, but we don't have any special contracts in the contract and we have enough time, so is this okay?
"What's up, YU JIN?"
"Well."
Cha Yu-jin shrugged and looked at me. What, do you want me to translate?
I only talked about reality briefly.
"I think they're going to put us off until the last minute and let us film it."
"...Ah."
"Oh, my."
Everyone sighs whether they guessed roughly due to the atmosphere.
Ryu Chung-woo smiled bitterly.
"That's what Bae Se-jin said."
"...No, I said it while thinking about what I took in Korea, but here... Things look different."

Bae Se-jin continued with a stern look.
"If you're doing this on purpose... It's bullying."
And Kim Rae-bin was shocked.
"...! Is this racism?"
Yeah, that's it.
"Well, there's a rush in... For foreigners, race and recognition would have played a part."
How to treat the sudden rush of work at a time when the schedule is set depends on the original power.
And in their perception, we don't seem to have much power.
"......."
I checked the others by twisting my neck.
No one is outraged.
It's not like we've never been treated like this before we sold a million copies.
"It reminds me of 'Ajusa'."
"Wow, that's right."
Crucially, the experience is weaker than the debut program.
They are calm as they have been through the chaos since their debut. I shrugged my shoulders.
"Since we have a meeting in the evening, let's have a meeting first and talk again."
I asked the guy who brought it up.
"How do you like it?"
[If you don't take it, you can't take it because you rejected the schedule. It'll end in violation of the contract]
"Well, I see."
"Yes!"
Sun Ah-hyun understood right away. That means the two guys who ate foreign stuff came to the same conclusion.
"Well."
"Oh, I'm at a loss."
Apart from being angry, you're allergic to funk like a workaholic.
"What do you think of Mundaemun?""
It's just me.
I crossed my arms.
"I... I don't think I'd mind breaking the contract."
"...!"
"Well, I'm not going crazy because I want to be a cameo."
I saw Bae Se-jin with a stiff face.
"I'd be very sad if you failed to make it to Hollywood, but...."
"Hey!"
Bae Se-jin was in a rage. The atmosphere lightened for a moment, but he soon calmed down.
"I don't want to film in a situation like this, either. I'm not the only one with a name, but a group name."
"Brother..."
The reaction automatically explodes from those who know that he has been flustered even though he has not spared any advice these days.
"Right. It's too small for Sejin to come out."
"That's not it!"
I smirked.
"It was a joke. Actually, I don't think I'll go that far."
"...?"
"Why? Why?"
"They won't be able to give up on OSTs.""
"I don't think we'll have to fight that far, so we'll be pretty friendly at the dinner meeting."
"...!"
If you say you'll take it out after hearing the finished version, they're god X.
Even if the manpower who works in the field and the manpower there are divided, the treatment here is like this, the OST managers can never play around.
I got bitten once..
"R.A.P.I.N made it so well."
No matter what I did with the explanation, it actually worked because the finished version was good.
"Oh, my..."
"As expected, R.A.P.I.N is a genius."
"That's too much of a compliment, I'll do my best."
Yes, breathe and speak. That's how the atmosphere was organized. In fact, it was as good as a conclusion.
Big Sejin shrugs.
"Then... shall we go out?"
The members looked back at each other a few times, and soon even Sun Ah-hyun nodded.
"Let's get out."
"OK~"
At that moment, Cha Yoo-jin kicked out of the trailer as if she had been waiting.
"...!?"
People who look back on what this is about are ignoring it.
"Let's find the manager first."
"Yes."
And we really took the company staff and left the set, blocking anything by saying we would talk again after the meeting.
The staff just pretended to stop me and followed me.
You must have had a hard time.'
"If this happens, we'll also say that we're going to have a problem with our tour schedule because of the trauma and we're going to claim damages."
"Good."
Thanks to you, everyone's fighting power has increased.
Even Bae Se-jin huffed as he entered the hotel.
"We don't... You don't have to put up with rudeness. Don't you think so?"
"Right."
And besides.
In fact, I was planning to persuade him to drag it out from the moment we first showed him to the set to the meeting.
"You're helping me out.'
I shrugged my shoulders.
I didn't even carry out the plan, but it's going smoothly on its own.
"Thanks, you're a tough guy."
That's how we got away with the cameo shoot on the first day.
It was my first schedule punk in a test group.
* * *
And a meeting that night.
Surprisingly, the general producer of the film production side came out.
"It's rare."
I didn't know that the top manager of the working group would finally come out on the OST.
"I don't know if the director's coming out... Isn't that right?"
"I hear the supervision isn't that great in this town. You see the division of labor."
"I see."
It's a relief that the translator didn't translate even the things we're deep-rooted.
After a brief exchange of conventional greetings and introductions, accompanied by staff dispatched from T1.
The interpreter carefully conveyed the producer's words.
"They're asking if there was a problem with the shooting and why you didn't film it.""
Oh, is this why you came out as a producer.
After leaving the set, I think the report went into T1, but there must have been something between the superiors again.
I nodded my head.
"I didn't hear any explanation and waited indefinitely. The trailer is cold, and you can't miss the tour because your throat is damaged."
If you use English here, your vocabulary will be limited and it will feel like you're adjusting it. I don't mean to.
When an interpreter translates this word, the producer nods as if he knew.
And this is what came out.
"Well, he says he's very sorry that this happened, but it's almost impossible to reschedule the set, and I wish he'd respected their time more...."
"...!"
Oh, my.
Bae Se-jin got angry first.
"No, we don't...."
"Brother, brother, wait
Yeah, I think we're mad at being played with a few keywords at the commission, mistaking the innocent for taking it out on a cameo shoot.
It was time for the atmosphere to cool off.
Suddenly, polite English poured in.
[It's not a normal situation to just stand by without any instructions] And our staff's words were not properly conveyed to the assistant director, so shouldn't respect be mutual?]
"...!"
Sun Ah-hyun spewed out a long English.
His face was pale, but his eyes were firm.
And it wasn't agreed with anyone.
Big Sejin admired.
"Ahyun must be really angry."'
"That's true
I shut my mouth. The producer seemed a little embarrassed, but he didn't seem angry at Sun Ah-hyun's words.
On the contrary, it seemed that only then did his head start to turn to the right situation.
Then, a moment later, the interpreter opened his mouth again.
"They say there must have been a misunderstanding. They say they'll respect your time more on the ground."
"...yes."
Sun Ah-hyun kept her mouth shut. I didn't look very satisfied, but I gave him a slight slap on the back.
"Good job."
This is enough to set the mood. Sun Ah-hyun smiled faintly.
And I opened my mouth again.
"Well, let's do the cameo shoot again another day in another scene."
"...!"
I'll eat as much as I can pretend to give way.
Episode 337 of "Debuting Illness"
Let's re-watch Testa's original movie cameo appearance.
- The role of backing up and disappearing a supporting role when the protagonist leads a large battle.
'It's a perfect arrangement to feature an homage or parody.'
Looking at the scenario scene, it seems that it will appear quite a lot not only us but also game characters.
"I guess it's right before the climax of the mid-to-late part of the movie
However, what if we suddenly appear as game characters without being established actors or CGs?
a fair return
A little clumsiness makes me solemn.
"If you go further, you'll become a mocker on the Internet."
It's understandable that the director doesn't like it on the spot. This is definitely a choice made by the production company as a company-to-business.
And the producer sitting in front of us is the head of the staff who is located between the production company and the production team.
It has authority, but it is a position where you can sympathize with the field.
But even now, we've been working on a cause. That man is ready to listen.
"Sun Ah Hyun set the mood well."'
Now that it's a dahong skirt, if it looks okay, I'll accept it.
So I slowly opened my mouth.
First of all, carrots.
"We don't intend to violate the schedule on the set either. It's impossible because of the tour schedule in the first place."
We're busy, too, you punk.
When the interpreter was delivered, the producer nodded quite seriously. I went on talking.
"So why don't we just add a little bit more to see that we have a test. Our contract must be fulfilled."
The interpreter delivered the producer's words.
"They want to see as many similar scenes as possible and get a schedule."
I thought we were going to bend down, so I asked.
I knew it, but I don't think it'll work.
I laughed inwardly.
You can't be in a battle scene with that X-like costume play.
It will come out in a different image.
"It's uncomfortable for each other if you make it that difficult, so you can be more comfortable."
It's inducing.
I looked at the summary of the scenario on the plane and remembered all the scenes I had been watching.
And I picked up one of them.
"How about this scene?"
This is because I kept asking our staff, who were walking around the set and eating, as soon as I returned to the hotel.
Did you hear any of the scenes that I filmed that the staff mentioned?
And I got one.
- Oh, this...
- You can tell me.
Yeah. Well, I think this actor said he was going to use this set after a while?
That's the scene.
It's the perfect final plan for the schedule.
I gave the producer the corresponding page of the summary.
"It's more fun to be a singer. We're singers, so the big battle scenes may look awkward."
You can hit and fall so that it doesn't interfere with the filming schedule, and at the same time, it's a cut that we can use as an image.
Let's go with this.
"You don't have to say anything, and I thought you'd use it comfortably because it'd be over if you put a word and a background."
The producer listened to the interpreter. I looked around a little.
There was no particular agitation because it was agreed upon at the hotel earlier.
However, Cha Yu-jin, who was sitting closer to the producer, raised her eyebrows slightly in a humorous way. I felt like I heard something.
"Oh."
Cha Yu-jin grinned. I think I know what you're talking about.
Some time later.
"He wants to hear more about it."
It was actually an OK sign.
"That's right."
I shrugged my shoulders.
And three days later, in the afternoon, cameo shooting proceeded as scheduled.
* * *
a late winter morning
As usual on set in Hollywood, workers know exactly what they're going to do.
Although waiting for them was just a series of low pay, neglect, and unwanted work, it was no different. If it was just for a living, I'd go to law school, because I wouldn't be here.
The same was true of the assistant, who was the foot of the production team. The youngest of the PA, she barely heard a briefing while checking the coffee on set.
"There's an extra crew?"
Although it was a short cameo appearance, it was rarely added suddenly on the day.
Asked who the "exception" was, she answered the team member briefly.
"KPOP star."
"Ah."
They were foreigners who left their seats at will a few days ago.
They don't know how much recognition they had in their country, but it was a band that she didn't know what KPOP was.
"VTIC? There's only one KPOP boy band name I know."
She frowned slightly at the thought of her sister, who was crazy about KPOP, but soon unfolded.
"Certainly Joan was rude."

8 248Crimson Pervert
Markus gets - quite literally - thrown into an RPG Fantasy world. Casually gaining game-breakingly great power is the very first thing of course, but afterwards travelling the world, building a harem and having plain fun is on the agenda. Note: No room to hide the fact that this is heavily inspired by the "Death March" web novel. I will give it my own touch by not having a Japanese-ish main character (Japan is cool and everything, but why have a harem if you never ever do something "H" with them?). Everything (characters, story, etc) is basically my creation, but I consider it a re-think of the original, so I can neither call it an "Original" nor a "Fan Fic". Don't expect it to be overly innovative. I will add an 18+ warning as soon as something like that happens, the first chapter just has a bit of undramatic blood. Comments welcome.
8 104Another Day
New day shall come, again and again. Some will see it, some won't. And that is what I have been telling myself for quite some time... One more day. Just one more day. 18+ Extreme profanity, violence and gore. Size of chapters grow a 'bit'. [Chapter 4 - 2000 words.] [Chapter 20 - 15000 words.] This project was caused by huge amount of fantasy stories I have read on royalroad, and the issues I had, and still have with them. Don't like, make your own. Right? Anyway, please read the tags carefully, each one of them is there for a reason. This is my first story so don't expect too much.
8 212Rise of The Tyrant
In the 35th year of the Evolver Era Calendar, countless holes suddenly appeared on the surface of the earth's seven continents. These are holes to enter into a mysterious underground world that turns out to be bigger than the world on the surface. Technology doesn't work here, but there are plenty of resources and legacies from the unknown ages. What's even more surprising is that it turns out that there are other holes that lead to a deeper underground world. This second one is still unknown as those who entered haven't returned until now. Ciel Arnaud wishes to explore the Second Underground World to find his parents who disappeared when he was only 7 years old. Unfortunately, his lack of talent makes it difficult to fulfill his wish. Things got really bad after his adoptive sister who was his parent's disciple followed in their footsteps. His father's distant cousin who was supposed to be the next person to take care of him turns out to have a hidden grudge against his father. He caught him, imprisoned him, tortured him, and forced him to tell him where his parents' relics were which he didn't really know at all. In the midst of his despair after one year of torture, something suddenly appeared. This was something that changed his fate. From weak to invincible. From being useless to being the most tyrannical and domineering being....

Remember that first day? I do. In the car, the windows rolled down, music flowing through the air. I was at peace with everything and everyone. We were family.
