The Third-Gen Chaebol Becomes a Genius Actor

Ch 12: Is the rumor exaggerated?

Yeon-seo was quite excited, but entering a project wasn't as simple as expressing interest.

"All these scripts came to me?"

First of all, Yeon-seo had one body, and among the piles of scripts, he had to choose the one that appealed to him.

"Why are there so many?"

"That's because there are many desperate people."

Among the piled scripts, there were hardly any from popular authors. Mostly, they were from new or relatively unknown writers.

"But why are they all lead roles?"

"You said you wouldn't do it unless it's the lead role."

"I did? I haven't even received lessons yet. Just blindly taking on a lead role is not ideal..."

Park Director swallowed his breath. He observed Yeon-seo, who had unexpectedly become calm and quiet. He knew about his memory loss, but his personality had changed so much. Why wasn't he insisting on the lead role?

"Anyway, if you're going to be on the set, you can change the role as you like."

Yeon-seo, who had succeeded in visualizing the script, had made a debut and gained recognition in the industry.

However, after that, there were no casting offers for Yeon-seo in subsequent projects. The reason was her infamous bad acting.

"What should I choose? Any good suggestions?"

"Just choose what you want. That's how it always has been."

"If it were me... I'd probably choose based on what I've experienced."

Director Park provided a piece of advice lacking in substance, but Im Seung-hyun was different. Yeon-seo had stopped playing with the scripts like a card trick and paused at Im Seung-hyun's words.

"Experiences...?"

"Yes. Wouldn't that make it easier to immerse yourself in the role?"

Come to think of it, weren't there military roles among the scripts? Yeon-seo stood up and started searching through the pile of scripts.

At the back, Park Director and Im Seung-hyun leaned forward to see. When Yeon-seo glanced at the script, he chose something completely different from what they expected.

"...A soldier?"

"Why not? I served in the military too."

Even though he hadn't completed her mandatory service? Yeon-seo questioned, as if asking what the problem was. But Im Seung-hyun and Director Park exchanged ambiguous looks.

"But won't there be a lot of action in this one?"

Yeon-seo excelled at exceeding whatever was imagined. Not just pronunciation and articulation, but even using his body was a challenge for him. Other actors with good acting skills were often overshadowed by her outstanding bad acting.

Can someone like her handle action scenes? Even with a stunt double, there were limits.

"Well, that's even better."

However, at the moment, what Yeon-seo was most confident about was action roles, especially the life of a soldier after Kang Jin-hoo.

"You can join an action school."

"Even though I can't act properly, you suggest an action school..."

Yeon-seo turned around abruptly. The somewhat timid Park Director met her gaze, cleared his throat, and feigned a cough.
