chapter 28
028. uh, really?
“Oh, really?”
Yeon Jin-woo, who visited a company related to voice actor recruitment, felt rather awkward at the very favorable response, unlike the previous visits.
“yes. I also watched TV. Since the industry is rather narrow, rumors quickly spread that it was the work of the director. Especially that OST. Was it really great?”
“ah. Thank you for taking good care of us.”
“Aww, say something. you know Even if you haven’t watched the whole anime, you can feel it when you live in the industry. You will definitely succeed. At first glance, the scene or OST is real. uh huh It was kind of creepy.”
“Aww, say something. Good voice actors, please.”
“Do not worry. If it’s an animation like this, I’m sure a lot of people will support it.”
Yeon Jin-woo, who left the building after the meeting, stared blankly at the bright sky that summer had begun.
how to say If it felt like walking step by step through a tunnel full of darkness without knowing what was ahead until it appeared on TV right away, now I could clearly feel that there was light at the end of the tunnel.
It was only a few days difference.
“Come to think of it, it was today.”
That was the day Song Jae-ik went to work. Song Jae-ik locked himself in the composing room to complete the OST, and Yeon Jin-woo and Kim Hyun-jin had already heard the song, so of course they agreed.
Even after hearing that song, how could I not agree to it? No, he said he would bring a better song than that one.
Once you have enough time in your schedule. It’s enough to do other parts first.
After that, the only thing left to do is add dialogue to the animation. And add the OST brought by Song Jae-ik today. If you still have some spare time, maybe you can add a little detail in the parts you don’t like.
I still can’t believe it, but all of this was accomplished by one person, Song Jae-ik. It wasn’t long before it came in either.
He was a very strange friend. How can you be so confident in everything and succeed?
There were not once or twice when he was frustrated and almost gave up at the future he had no idea about.
Gying-
[Meeting over? come fast. Jaeik has arrived. Waiting for you to come.]
In response to the text, Yeon Jin-woo moved his steps briskly. Even if it wasn’t possible to get to the house, it would have taken twenty or thirty minutes, and he wanted to hear the song in his animation as soon as possible.
“taxi!”

Piri-Rik-
“What about the song? Haven’t you heard yet?”
The front door opened and Yeon Jin-wu, his face covered in sweat, hurriedly entered.
“Are you here?”
“What’s the point of running so fast that you’re drenched in sweat?”
“Isn’t it obvious? Will we finally hear the finished version of the song?”

Looking around the studio, I found a laptop connected to the TV and waiting for an animation to play.
“Let’s see. hurry.”
“Wash your face or wipe off some sweat. And I will watch the whole video.”
“Oh, wait.”
Yeon Jin-woo roughly wiped off his sweat and sat down in front of the TV.
While Song Jae-ik was already working hard to complete the OST, other sound effects were completed, so if you watch today’s video, it means that it is close to the real final version.
“Do you really play?”
Kim Hyun-jin pressed the play button with a nervous expression.
The video started with the face of the main character who is tired of social life.
Ultimately, this animation was a story unfolding around the theme of dreams and self-realization. Of course, in the process, there are contents such as social criticism through those around you who quit stable jobs and ask why you are fooling around.
The main character was silent because the lines hadn’t been written yet, but the lines already existed in the heads of the three people watching the video.
As time passed and the highlight scene got closer, except for Jaeik, the two of them continued to swallow dry saliva.
My palms were sweaty from the tension. Even the song I saw on TV was so good that it overflowed, but Song Jae-ik calmly evaluated it as not being completed.
Then how good is the finished song?
With the start of the highlight scene, Yeon Jin-woo was so immersed in the screen that he forgot to breathe.
“Puha. it’s crazy.”
A scene in which the main character, who has found her own purpose and path on the trip, is drenched in joy and makes a resolution at the same time.
When all the videos are over and the end credits roll.
[Screenplay / Director Yeon Jin-woo.]
Song Jae-ik could not take his eyes off the phrase. Screenplay, Director.

Literally, this was entirely directed by Yeon Jin-woo. No matter how much influence you have.
gulp-
“Was it only me who had fun?”
“Great. oh my god! oh my god! Awesome!”
Yeon Jin-woo hugged Kim Hyun-jin and Song Jae-ik and turned round and round. It was that good. more than you thought.
No I would have imagined something like this?
“You are a genius! You are a true genius!”
“A genius. It is possible because of good inspiration and good teachers.”
Of course, the ring would have been the most powerful, but Evie’s help was absolute in the process of making the song anyway.
Even if he digested his songwriting talent through the ring, it was his talent for making things, not the other parts.
For example, in the part of registering copyright or remembering the sound of numerous musical instruments and finding the sound that Jae-Ik Song speaks of.
“We can make it! You can succeed!”
Yeon Jin-woo was drawing in his head thinking about whether he couldn’t hear Song Jae-ik’s answer.
this works no, it has to work
Still, his senses, which had been in the animation industry for nearly ten years, were telling him that.
“ruler! Then today is chicken and beer!”
Totally different from when I was busking and when I sang with Jeongyeon. It was a feeling of satisfaction that is difficult to express in words.
—
“The only thing I want indefinitely is the power of high culture.”
“Are you talking about Baekbeom Kim Gu?”
“Great- that’s right. And these are the words that I have lived with in my heart until now. Hehe… Korean animations are good enough!”
Regardless of the authenticity of the words, Yeon Jin-woo has always lived with that phrase in his heart.
Hallyu, commonly referred to as Korean Wave. Hallyu became K-pop and K-drama at some point. Or something with a K.
However, there was no K animation anywhere. That’s the animation he was involved in.
Hit by Japan and pushed by the US. The only place where you could find Korean animation was the younger age group. It was very sad.
Even though he has the ability to create animations that are suitable for a wide range of ages!
“That’s why I wanted to be more successful. We can also make good animations for adults to watch! We can make good animations too!”
“Yes, yes. I’m sure there will be good results if you submit. The result is so good. To be honest, if we don’t win a prize, the judges will be blinded as a group.”
“Of course there should be good results! I’m going to have to press all the nose bridges of those damn bastards!”
I couldn’t express it because of my low self-confidence, but in Korea, I will press down on the nose of those who nailed it by saying that they can’t do feature-length animations, and who ignored them, saying that they were idiots who only pursued their dreams!
Especially Lee Junsu! The work you said would be ruined! It never went your way!
“by the way. So Jaeik, what is your dream? Honestly, singing, making animations, playing the piano, everything would be fine. You are all good.”
“Is it my dream?”
Even after hearing Kim Hyun-jin’s question, nothing clearly came to Song Jae-ik’s mind.
Because the biggest thought was that I just wanted to absorb the talent of the ring and do well in this and that.
“okay. No matter what you do, there will definitely be a big difference between running with a goal in mind and not.”
For what purpose should I live? It was a question I had never thought of before.
“You are K-Culture from now on!”
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
“Only you can become K-Culture!”
“Oh, you’re drunk. drunk.”
“lets think! Kingdom on Mflix! The boy group playing on Billboard right now! It’s all K-Culture! K Culture!”
Kim Hyun-jin dismissed Yeon Jin-woo as drunken nonsense, but Song Jae-ik took it seriously.
“Drunk! I’m serious! Your script reading skills are not average. It’s like figuring out where you need to give strength and where you don’t. Web toon? animation? Song? You can do it all!”
It wasn’t wrong, and it wasn’t impossible.
“It certainly is.”
“What else are you taking so seriously? Talk about a drunk.”
Kim Hyun-jin sighed, but Song Jae-ik remembered the ending credits he had seen earlier and took Hyun-jin Kim’s question seriously.
It was certain that a dream came about because of that question. I had a big idea of simply digesting the talent of the ring and doing this and that.
That I want to create something with my name on it.
Whatever it is or whatever field you can do it.

“therefore. Are you done with the animation work?”
“no. Check out the details before submitting. It will be exhibited next month.”
“Did you say the Busan International Film Festival? It was supposed to be in October, but there are still about three months left.”
“Three months soon.”
“okay. By the way, do you know that? Did you have a fan cafe?”
“Eh? What nonsense are you talking about?”
It’s not even April Fool’s Day, but I laughed at the sight of him talking nonsense. There’s nothing like a fan cafe. what nonsense is this
“I don’t believe it. Look here.”
On the screen of Kangseok Eom’s mobile phone, it was clearly written “Channel Challenge Everything Fan Cafe,” and the number of cafe members was close to 1,000.
“why? Why?”
“Isn’t it me? I am amazed too. Once I signed up. Your fan cafe makes the world go crazy!”
“Stop talking nonsense.”
Song Jae-ik entered the cafe on his computer and skimmed through the titles of the posts.
– So what’s the next challenge?
– First of all, you should see how the animation comes out. But since I started digging once, I wonder how much I will dig?
– No, I was surprised to suddenly come out of the star’s daily switch. Besides, suddenly it’s an anime OST. What the hell can’t this man do?
– I don’t know everything, but I wish I could sing with Evie again. Both duet songs were really good.
– Admit it.
– Looking at the challenge now. Cooking, piano, guitar, vocals, animation, composition. So, what’s the next webtoon? That’s drawing too.
– Isn’t webtoon a very long-term project?
– But isn’t the owner here like a labang? I would like to do something like communication.
First of all, the main contents seemed to be compressed into piano, song, and animation.
And the biggest question is when will the animation that Song Jae-ik participated in come out? And what will be Song Jae-ik’s next challenge?
“her. that’s interesting.”
“So what’s next for you? still animated? Or something new?”
“Well.”

Like movies, animation was a kind of comprehensive art. I had to draw pictures, I needed music, and I needed the ability to write a screenplay.
In other words, it meant that there were still many things lacking in myself to do alone. Although he was good at drawing, he was not terribly good at drawing through many digestions, and he lacked the ability to write.
‘Step by step.’
First of all, making my own pure creation under my name. even if it’s small
and growing it.
The immediate goal has been set.
