Superstar From Age 0

Chapter 36

After getting everyones signatures, they resumed their work. Kim Heesang and Seo-jun headed to the blue gatehouse where they would stay during the filming, along with the assistant director.

The assistant director opened one of the many doors. The bedding and pillows were neatly arranged, with a floral pattern that reflected the grandmothers taste.

The grandmother went to work in the fields. This is your room. There are blankets and pillows, and the bathroom is over there. If youre hungry, you can take anything from the fridge in the kitchen. This is the staffs contact list, and if you need anything, please call me. The scene with Seo-jun can only be filmed after the sun sets, so rest well until then.

Okay.

Make sure Seo-jun gets enough sleep too, so he wont be sleepy during the filming.

Yes!

The assistant director left the room and Kim Heesang unfolded the blanket.

Are you tired from the long car ride?

Um. A little?

Do you want to take a nap? Lets sleep well and then have dinner and go to the filming.

Okay!

Seo-jun snuggled into the floral blanket. He covered himself with the cozy blanket and laid his head on the pillow. He didnt intend to, but

[The Winter Sleep of the Summer Bear is activated.]

Seo-jun?

As soon as he laid his head on the pillow, he fell asleep.

He slept soundly, even ignoring Kim Heesangs call.

Did you sleep well?

Kim Heesang chuckled and packed Seo-juns belongings.

***

The sun set.

It was time to prepare for the filming.

Seo-jun woke up from his nap and had dinner with the grandmother who had returned from the fields. The grandmother kept bringing out more side dishes from the fridge as the little baby ate deliciously, and Kim Heesang was busy refusing them.

Is it good?

Yes!

With his eyes half-closed from sleeping well, Seo-jun stuffed his mouth with rice and side dishes and chewed them well.

He had been filming mukbangs since he was eight months old, and he had become a mukbang master. Kim Heesang and the grandmother also scooped up rice with their spoons, watching Seo-jun eat with a plump face.

After finishing dinner, Kim Heesang and Seo-jun talked about the monster drawings in Seo-juns sketchbook until the staff called them.

This is a darker color than this, but I colored it like this because the crayons only have 24 colors.

Then, would this color be okay?

Kim Heesang showed him one of the colors on his phones color chart. Seo-jun nodded.

Yes!

Next, this is. What is this? Fur?

This is an antenna.

Seo-jun explained slowly. Kim Heesang listened carefully and wrote it down in his notebook.

Knock knock-

Yes. Come in.

The staff with a hat opened the door quietly and met Seo-juns eyes, who was drawing and explaining the pictures in his sketchbook.

Did you wake up already?

Yes!

Thats good. Its time to film. You can go to the hanok behind.

The staff left and Kim Heesang and Seo-jun put on their clothes and went outside. It was hot until night in Seoul in July, but Ogeri was cool.

It might get cold if it gets later.

Kim Heesang went back to the room and brought a blanket and a hand warmer. Kim Heesang and Seo-jun chatted as they walked to the mansion, which was the only hanok in the village full of slate roofs.

As they walked along the wall of the hanok, the house seemed very big.

While Seo-jun was sleeping, I heard from the grandmother that the family who owns this house are very smart people. They are all famous doctors, judges, lawyers. Do they have good luck?

What is luck?

Um. There is a mountain over there, right? And there is a river in front of it. The power of the mountain and the power of the river gather in this hanok and give power to the people who live here. That could be the power to make a lot of money, or the power to make the people who are born here smart.

Seo-jun followed Kim Heesangs finger and looked at the mountain and then the river.

Thats amazing!

Isnt it?

They also talked about the structure of the hanok. Kim Heesang had a lot of trivial knowledge and told him many interesting stories.

As they walked and talked, they arrived at the filming location.

Choi Daeman, the director, who was talking to Lee Jiseok, saw them and came over.

How are you? Its late, but youre not sleepy?

I took a nap!

Thats good.

Shall we go to the dressing room together?

Lee Jiseok and Seo-jun went into a tent. There were various clothes hanging and a large mirror and a chair. Lee Jiseok and Seo-jun sat on the chairs as the staff instructed.

Dont talk.

Um!

Seo-jun answered with his mouth closed, and the staff didnt know what to do with his cuteness. The staff who won the rock-paper-scissors and took charge of Seo-juns makeup moved the brush carefully. Lee Jiseok felt like he was left out.

It suits you well.

Seo-jun came out wearing the clothes. It was a white robe that a baby shaman wore when he slept.

Seo-jun adjusted his robe. He had worn hanbok on New Years Day or Chuseok, but this was the first time he wore a white robe. Kim Heesang touched the fabric of the robe. Was it a bit thin?

Are you cold?

No!

Tell me if youre cold.

Okay!

Lee Jiseok finished his makeup and came out. He was wearing the same clothes as Soohyuk, who had been attacked by evil spirits in Seoul and when he came to this village.

Wow!

Seo-jun opened his eyes wide. It looked like real blood and dust. His face was full of wounds and one of his eyes was swollen and bruised. His clothes were ragged and torn. Kim Heesang was also amazed by the movie special makeup.

Wow. It looks so real.

Thats our teams skill.

The assistant director who came in boasted. Then he led the two actors and Kim Heesang to the filming location.

Well only check the movements for the rehearsal. The director said that both of you have great acting skills and that it would be emotionally exhausting. Besides, we have to film full shots, bust shots, and close-up shots, so its not good to lose your strength during the rehearsal.

The first filming location was in front of the large wooden gate of the hanok. Several cameras and lights were already set up, and Choi Daeman, the director, who was checking the background on the monitor, got up and came over.

Seo-jun and Jiseok, you both look great. Shall we start with checking the movements?

Choi Daeman explained in detail. Seo-jun and Lee Jiseok knew everything, but they listened carefully.

Meanwhile, Kim Heesang went over the gate and into the yard. There were also cameras and lights set up here to film Seo-jun.

Filming starts!

The simple rehearsal ended and the main filming began. The cameras started rolling and everyone took their positions.

Seo-jun stood in front of the large wooden gate, wearing a white robe.

His role was a baby shaman who harbored a fearsome god inside him.

He had very few lines, but he had to express a lot with his body.

Before the directors signal, Seo-jun licked his lips as he looked at the wooden gate.

Kim Seobang, lets play.

[The Bubble Goblins Kim Seobang Teasing-Low Level-is activated.]

*

[The Bubble Goblins Kim Seobang Teasing-Low Level]

The bubble goblins energy bursts out.

You can change the shape of the energy.

With the power of the shamans bell, you can rarely predict Kim Seobangs future.

Activation: Kim Seobang, lets play

Cancellation: Kim Seobang teasing over

*

The bubble goblin was a little goblin born from an old shamans bell.

The bubble goblin lived for the fun of teasing the passing Kim Seobangs.

He emitted a strange energy and made his body two or three times bigger, or turned his yellow energy made of brass into a black one and imitated a dark ghost.

There was one Kim Seobang who often visited the mountain where the bubble goblin lived, and he felt a familiarity with him, who was always startled by him.

Arent you used to it by now, Kim Seobang?

How can I get used to you!?

The bubble goblin, who revealed his identity, sometimes received acorn jelly from Kim Seobang and gave him gifts, and they became friends.

This hat looks familiar

Hehehe.

Isnt this mine!?

One day, very rarely, the bubble goblin saw Kim Seobangs future. The bubble goblin was very glad. He knew that Kim Seobang would die soon, so he jumped in instead of his friend.

Hey! Why did you!

Ive lived longer than you, Kim Seobang!

Kim Seobang held a memorial service for his goblin friend who sacrificed his life for him, putting the broken shamans bell in an old tree.

Ill give you a hard time when we meet again.

***

Something moved in the middle of his chest. Seo-jun took out what he had practiced for a month and a half.

He made the goblins energy into a human shape and put it in his body. It felt like there was something inside him.

It was hard to make this shape. It had to look like a human, but not be a human, and it had to be inside him, but also show some of its energy outside.

He made the shape as if he was playing with clay, but somehow he made a thing with long arms and legs and scary eyes.

-Ready.

Just like when he filmed the shadow man, he heard the directors voice very faintly. He was able to think a little bit, unlike when he was sucked in without realizing it.

Oh, its starting now.

That was all he could do.

-Action!

The baby shamans god was very powerful and terrifying. He didnt reveal his name, but he had a great power even so.

The rumor of the baby shaman only circulated within the village. His great gods power made it so. The gods power that didnt go outside piled up inside the baby shaman.

Thump thump!

So he knew.

Thump thump!

The baby shaman opened the wooden gate. There was a man in front of him, breathing roughly. The man was full of wounds. He had lost one leg and his eye was swollen. The baby shaman knew what had made him like that.

That thing.

The thing inside the man.

The evil thing.

They say theres a powerful shaman here

The man who was talking stopped.

The baby shaman lifted his head and looked at the man from the top of his head to the tip of his toes.

The evil thing.

That was it. That was what killed your parents.

The baby shaman saw everything that was swirling inside the man.

The dark spirit looked at him like a dancing flame, laughing and crying, and finally showing the image of his parents who died quietly, hiding their breath so that the baby wouldnt be scared.

Thump!

The baby shaman, who knew everything, closed the wooden gate. It wasnt time yet.

Cut! OK!

Seo-jun turned around and breathed lightly, muttering.

Kim Seobang, teasing over.

Heesang, who was outside the camera, ran over and wrapped him in a blanket and handed him a hand warmer.

Are you okay, Seo-jun?

Im okay! I was a little tired after the shadow man.

Fortunately, his body had grown a lot in the six months, and he still had some strength left.

You focused so much. You did well.

Heesang patted Seo-juns head and hugged him, heading to Choi Daeman, the director. They had agreed beforehand to watch the scene they filmed on the monitor and talk.

Heesang pushed the wooden gate. Huh? It was harder than he thought. He pushed harder and the gate opened.

It takes quite a bit of strength. Is Seo-jun strong? He pushed it easily.

No. It was really easy.

Seo-jun mimicked how he opened and closed the gate. Was it? Heesang clenched and opened his hand a few times and looked at the wooden gate. The large wooden gate was tightly closed.
