Chapter 39

Ready, action!

The wind machine started to blow. Seo-juns red martial arts uniform fluttered in the wind.

Its been a long time, baby. Youve grown so deliciously, I should have eaten you back then.

Lee Ji-seok spoke in a rough voice and chuckled.

But, whats inside you? Its what I wanted, what I waited for you to grow more delicious!

The goblin bell that Seo-jun was holding shook loudly. Lee Ji-seoks voice became even rougher. The staff on one side shivered at his voice.

Who is he, who took you before me?!

Seo-jun had no lines, so Lee Ji-seok had to match the timing himself.

It was time for the baby goblin and the god to talk. But somehow, Lee Ji-seok felt like he could hear their conversation through Seo-juns expression.

So, when Seo-jun hesitated a bit, now!

Khek!

Lee Ji-seok fell to the floor.

Kheheheh!

The voice of the evil spirit came out, and Seo-jun looked at Lee Ji-seok with a pitiful gaze.

Again.

It was just facial acting, but Lee Ji-seok felt like he could hear the conversation between Seo-jun and the god.

Everyone held their breath. One of the staff looked at the script he was holding. The staff next to him peeked at the script.

God: Wait. You have to wait.

Baby goblin: But. That guy. Hes hurt. I have to heal him.

God: (smiling) Youre too kind-hearted. Thats why I chose you. But still, wait.

Wow. How can he do that?

It seemed like they could hear the dialogue between the god and the baby goblin from Seo-juns facial acting.

Beg, beg, I say! That kid is so kind-hearted, hell make you comfortable as soon as you ask him! Like this! Dont you want to be comfortable? Dont you want to go back to normal?!

Lee Ji-seok was so immersed in his facial acting that he felt like he was burning. He also fell into his role from head to toe.

Jingling!

The goblin bell shook, and Lee Ji-seok, who was absorbed in the evil spirit acting, Choi Dae-man, the director who was staring at the monitor, and some of the staff saw it.

A golden aura burst out from the body of the little boy standing behind the hanok. The power of [Kim Seo-bangs Goblin Bell Prank] was revealed.

The pitch-black night.

The golden thing that soared like a hot heat wrapped around Seo-jun.

Uh

One of the staff pointed at Seo-jun without knowing it, but the staff who didnt see the aura were also engrossed in Seo-jun and Lee Ji-seoks passionate acting and didnt notice. They all held their breath and swallowed their saliva.

Finally, Seo-jun opened his mouth. It was his first line.

I beg the heavens and the earth.

Seo-juns voice made Lee Ji-seok come to his senses and continue his acting.

I, a lowly being, beg you.

[email protected]^&%&@!!!

Lee Ji-seok screamed as if he was really scared of becoming an evil spirit. The staff stepped back at his tremendous voice.

Was it an illusion? Along with the golden aura that rose from Seo-juns body, something black seemed to shake from Lee Ji-seoks body.

Director Choi Dae-man rubbed his eyes and looked again, only to see a golden aura pulsating vigorously. freewebnove(l)

Let that great soul descend upon this body, Jun murmured, flicking the talisman in his left hand. As practiced, the goblins energy stylishly propelled the talisman. The staff, who had been mesmerized by the two actors, fortunately didnt miss the timing and pressed the switch.

Flare!

As the flames erupted in a circle, the spot where Seo Jun and Lee Ji-seok stood seemed like a different world. Despite knowing what to expect, the staff couldnt help but inhale sharply.

Power to burn the ignorant evil!

With Juns voice, the golden aura surged towards Ji-seok.

?!

Genuinely startled, Ji-seok screamed and tumbled to the ground. Even the staff, who couldnt see the aura, were taken aback by his performance, as if he were truly on fire. It was chilling.

Clang! Jun shook the bell in his hands. The sound, surprisingly loud, resonated through the large Hanok courtyard.

Power to annihilate its very source!

The golden flames intensified. Whether it was fortunate or not, the earnest effort to mimic fire without actual flames paid off.

I feel like Im getting the hang of handling souls, thanks to you!

Ji-seok delivered his line and watched the golden aura cavorting around him with a sickened look.

Is this really a ghost? A specter or will-o-the-wisp from a blockbuster movie? Ji-seok, who accidentally guessed right, collapsed to the ground as the apparition conveniently vanished. Jun sat down beside him.

It was over.

Cut.

Director Choi Dae-man, who had been anxiously alternating his gaze between the monitor and the scene, finally spoke up and shouted.

OK!

As Seo Jun and Lee Ji-seok were about to converse, the assistant director unknowingly clapped his hands.

Clap-

Clap-Clap-

Clap-Clap-Clap!

Wow!

Applause erupted among the staff.

Shall we take a break?

Yes, thank you.

No, thank you. Ive never seen such an incredible performance.

Jun and Ji-seok dusted off the dirt and settled around the monitor. Director Choi Dae-man and the assistant director also took their seats.

Lets watch and then discuss.

Director Choi showed the actors the footage they had shot.

Keep in mind the voices of the evil spirit and the deity as you watch.

True to Chois words, although there were gaps in the dialogue, the actors voices and movements filled the screen so well that it didnt feel awkward.

Ji-seok watched intently but couldnt find even a trace of the ghost. It must have been an illusion.

After the video ended, Ji-seok said with a laugh.

Do we even need dialogue?

Exactly. Both of you did so well. If theres a chance to release this footage, Id love to share it.

Juns acting was so good Is Jun asleep?

Yes?

Seo-juns eyes were half-closed. The adults laughed. He was only six years old. He must have been tired after such an amazing performance. Director Choi Daeman opened his mouth.

Thats enough for today. Go and get some rest.

But I have to shoot the burst scene

You got it right in one take, so you can do it tomorrow. Were filming here until the day after tomorrow anyway.

I guess I worked too hard today. Im so tired. I need to go to bed early.

When both Director Choi and actor Lee Jiseok said that, Seo-jun rolled his eyes and nodded.

Then Ill go first. Good night.

Sleep well!

Kim Heesang, who was sitting behind Seo-jun, lifted him up. Seo-jun, who was in Kim Heesangs arms, fell asleep in no time.

Wow, Director. Look at this. My hands are shaking.

Lee Jiseok, who had been acting relaxed in front of the child actor, leaned back on the backrest and showed his hands as soon as Seo-jun disappeared.

Director Choi Daeman, who had been observing Lee Jiseoks condition from the beginning, laughed. The assistant director went to tell the staff that the shooting was over.

I thought Seo-jun would eat me alive.

You were almost equal to him.

Equal? If Seo-jun and I are equal, thats a big deal.

He said it was a big deal, but his face was bright. Lee Jiseok talked happily.

This is the most fun shooting Ive had in a long time. I really didnt think about anything and just acted. I became a demon, and then Soohyuk. I was afraid of the god. And then I burned.

He said fire, and the aura from before came to his mind. Was that a fake? Lee Jiseok touched his ankle, where he had felt a hot sensation.

Me too

Director Choi Daeman bit his lip that was about to curl up.

Me too, Im looking forward to how Ill edit it. My heart is pounding.

He wondered if he could recreate the golden aura he had seen before. Maybe it would be a more amazing scene than he had expected.

The two people who thought they were the only ones who saw the aura laughed.

Thats right. Youll be the first one to see the final product, Director. Oh, man. I cant even imagine. What kind of movie will it be?

Jiseok, you should go in and rest too. Tomorrow, well shoot the burst scene and the close-up scene.

But, can I do it like this tomorrow?

He had given it his all in the shooting. It was a full shot, so the camera was out of sight. Thats why he could immerse himself more.

But he had to shoot that scene again? And with the camera right in front of him? Lee Jiseoks worry made Director Choi laugh.

Its okay if it doesnt come out well. The full shot alone will be perfect for the movie. Dont worry and just relax.

I cant relax, but Ill do my best.

The two people joked and laughed.

The next day.

Thanks to Seo-jun, who was full of mana and vitality, the burst scene and the close-up scene were shot better than the full shot.

Director Chois mouth was hanging open at the unexpected result, and Lee Jiseok collapsed.

I cant do this anymore. I really cant.

There was no aura, but Seo-juns acting was more overwhelming than the full shot. Lee Jiseok, who had tried harder than yesterday to not lose to him, lay down on the bed as soon as he entered the room.

Seo-jun brought the dumplings that his grandmother had given him. Jiseok hyung was lying down without even covering himself with a blanket. He seemed to have a hard time acting possessed for a few days.

Grandma wants you to eat some dumplings, Ji-seok hyung.

I cant eat. Seo-jun. Hyung is too tired. I must be getting old.

But the dumplings are delicious.

Seo-jun bit into a dumpling and grinned.

Ji-seok, who was lying on the blanket, looked at Seo-jun. Yesterday, he was nodding off after just one shot, but today, he was so energetic after two shots. Why was that?

It was because he had unleashed his goblin energy and imitated a bat, but Ji-seok had no idea.

Seo-jun ate the dumplings diligently. The meat dumplings were delicious! They were homemade dumplings that Seo-jun had made with his grandmothers hand-rolled dough and stuffed with filling. Ji-seok swallowed his saliva as he watched Seo-jun enjoy his food.

He was feeling weak, but the dumplings looked really tasty.

Give me one too, hyung.

Here you go. This is a kimchi dumpling, this is a meat dumpling.

Give me a meat dumpling.

Ji-seok also took a bite of a dumpling.

Wow. This is really good.

Grandmas hand-cut noodles are also amazing.

Yeah?

Ji-seok and Seo-jun talked about their favorite foods as they ate the dumplings.

The last day of filming for the movie Evil Spirit.

The movie shooting was over as soon as they finished filming today. The scene they were going to film today was the last scene in the movie.

That was a pit to catch wild boars.

Wild boars?

Seo-jun, who was getting dressed and made up for the last scene, asked. Kim Hee-sang, who was sending a banana talk somewhere next to Seo-jun, opened his mouth.

Wild boars have been appearing in the fields lately, so they dug a pit on the path where the wild boars often walk. They told everyone in the village a week ago, but that kid came to his grandfathers house four days ago.

I heard that too. He was a kid who grew up in this village and knew the area well. He used to go out early in the morning and get food from everywhere and come back late at night, so they didnt worry much yesterday. It would have been a disaster if he was found later.

He regained consciousness yesterday. Thanks to Seo-jun, he was found quickly and hell be fine as long as his leg heals.

Hehe.

I told my mom and dad that I ran there alone. From now on, you have to stick to your uncle.

Uh-huh.

Kim Hee-sang showed Seo-jun his phone screen.

-You did well saving him, but you should have gone with your uncle!

-Youll have to write a reflection when you come back!

-Hold your uncles hand and walk!

Seo-juns shoulders drooped. Kim Hee-sang scratched his forehead on Seo-juns drooping shoulders. Kim Hee-sang was about to comfort Seo-jun, who had lost his energy, when.

Lets get ready for rehearsal!

Yes!

Seo-jun, who had been drooping, suddenly perked up and smiled brightly as he headed to the set.

He had to worry about the reflection later and go film quickly!

Kim Hee-sang watched Seo-jun, who was almost flying out, and said with a hollow face.

He must really love acting.

With this shooting, the movie Evil Spirit was over.
