Rebirth: King to Superstar

Joon-won nodded and looked at the contract once again. He carefully went through the contract line by line and nodded after feeling it was good and there weren't any terms or conditions which were not beneficial to him. He was also satisfied with the fee Hea-Jung managed to bargain for him. 70K Kros was a lot of money for him at the moment. Especially when he promised Yun-hee to not think much about the money for her education. Thus was more than what he got by acting in the theatre for an entire month. With this money, he wouldn't have to worry much about her tuition fees, including everything which comes along with it like food and other things.

He took the pen from the table and quickly signed the contract. He turned back towards Hea-Jung and said, "Alright, I signed it." 

Hea-Jung nodded and took out her phone before calling Han Ju and asking her to come and take the contract. Joon-won just sat on the couch and took out his earphones to listen to some music. Plugging in his earphones, he went into his own world and didn't even notice Han Ju, who came inside to take the contract from the table. Han Ju was very vigilant when she came inside. She didn't move her eyes from Joon-won's face as she kept her guard up and slowly took the contract before sprinting out of the room.

Time slowly passed, and the room was peaceful the entire time. Joon-won listened to music while Hea-Jung rolled on the bed looking at her phone. The peace was disturbed when someone knocked on the door. Joon-won didn't even move and Hea-Jung just shouted from the bed to come in. 

As she did, a staff member walked in and said to Hea-Jung, "Miss. Seo, please start getting ready. The shoot is about to end and the director would like you to be there on time so that they could continue shooting without stopping much." Hea-Jung nodded and Joon-won stood up while keeping his headphones away. 

"Alright then. I'll go to the shooting area then Hea-Jung. You start preparing for the shoot." Before walking out of the room as Hea-Jung also started to get ready. 

Joon-won took out his phone and switched it off. He didn't want to break the basic rules the first time he was on a shoot. He'll just stand on the side, not gather much attention and observe the entire process. As he got to the shooting area, he noticed so many people walking around while talking in their walkie-talkies. 

He continued to look around and saw the two main leads in one secluded corner using their phone. He was confused as to how they could use it but didn't bother to ask. The place they sat in was sealed off and that place was also much quieter, with security personnel guarding them. Both of them were also in their costumes as the hero had a police uniform on himself and the heroine seemed to have a lab coat hanging beside her. 

The two seemed to be on their own, as no one ever disturbed them. He then heard the director shout, "Alright, let's do it once again from another angle now. Come on, let's go." And turned to see him shout from the video village. The video village was an area around the monitor on set which enabled the director and key crew to watch what the camera was seeing and how the shot turned out. 

As soon as he shouted, people started walking a lot faster and Joon-won also noticed the two main leads kept their phones aside and let the make-up artist do their work. Joon-won also moved to a quieter place where he could get a complete view of the place and the shoot. He looked around and saw the rough director talking with the cinematographer who was sitting behind the camera, explaining how he wanted the next shot. 

Joon-won just continued to look around the place until he heard the assistant director shout, "Alright, let's start. Everyone, quiet." And everyone stopped talking and walking as the set became deadly silent. Joon-won also looked at the set and saw the actors ready on the set. 

"Take ###. Camera rolling, Ready, Action." The assistant director shouted, and the actors began to act. Joon-won continued to look at the two on set, as they slowly acted and noticed they were both quite bland at it. It was not that they were bad, but they weren't food either. He felt Hea-Jung was better at it than both of them. 

There was no sound on set except the two actors who spoke their dialogue. It was quite an experience and Joon-won was completely focused until he heard 'Cut, that was nice.' from the director. Everyone started to move when the director said that and Joon-won also took a deep breath. He was fascinated. Not by the acting, but by everything else. 

Joon-won looked around to notice Hew-Jung walked into the set in her police costume. She waved at him a little and walked towards the make-up station to get ready. She seemed to be liked by many compared to the two main leads, as people greeted her with a smile and were able to talk with her a little. He didn't find that weird at all, knowing how outgoing the girl really was. 

Joon-won decided to watch her shoot and then go back to the hotel to practice once again and also get ready for his own shoot. Hea-Jung got ready quickly and then went with the other two leads to the director to have a talk . This time, it seemed like there was another person who seemed quite old in the huddle with them, also in a police uniform, as the director explained the scene to them. 

After a while, they all nodded, and the shooting began. The scene was simple, the two main leads and Hea-Jung's characters were being scolded by their superior, who was played by the older man earlier in the huddle.
