Life, Once Again!

* * *

“You've put up quite a show for Yonkers. Can I get my crew's salary? I don't know how the director allowed this. You must have decided to cry and mustard, right? ”

Coffee shop in front of the theater. It was a smile and a strong voice sitting across from me.

“What's with the crying and the mustard? Rather, he liked it. And nothing's uglier than a man who makes art spends his money. Don't worry. We're done here. And you saw the crowd coming. ”

“If there's a rumor about this kind of play, people will be thrown out. ”

“Is it true? ”

It was as powerful as its own. There is no shortage of absolute perfection. The performances of the actors were great and the stage was also excellent. A great play in which people's emotions are heard and heard. The problem is, it hurts like an awl.

“All you need is someone to see it. It's not a pole you put up for everyone's approval anyway. I don't have the talent. ”

“It's ridiculous that the sound of talent comes from your mouth. Why would a cynical man suddenly switch routes with a homeless guy? Looks like you're representing them this time. ”

“As much as I know. I have been homeless for three months before preparing for this drama. The first month was split. Being sick wasn't a problem. It was really hard on people. ”

“People?”

“Yes, people. It's not just homeless people like Mr. Kim, Mr. Lee and Mr. Park who are released from the play. There were more homeless people who put all the complaints and didn't hesitate to commit crimes. Homeless people who spread their noses around other shops, and homeless people who buy drinks with their money. Most people gave up their lives. It was the end of my life.”

“So this play has an ideal scent? About the homeless?”

“No, it's not ideal. The character I played is real. ”

Kanghwan took out his notebook. A notebook that even smiles well.

“The people I met since the second month were completely different from the images of the homeless I had known. Those who struggle to live a miserable life. I met some struggling people to return to the battlefield of society. There was a lot of effort that made me wonder why I was homeless. I collected the stories of those people one by one, and then one character was completed. ”

“I don't think anyone's a freak. Poor people who were worried about being out of touch for months. ”

Kanghwan shrugs and smiles.

“But what's the favor? Says" please "with a smile from the world. ”

Smile lifted his face toward Kanghwan.

“Mentoring me. ”

“Mentoring? What do you mean? ”

Kanghwan tilts his head.

“There is such a thing. I'll explain later. This is a request from Joon-min, not an order. ”

* * *

In a cafe in the water. Three men were gathered at the window.

“Well, say hello to each other. ”

The floor looks at the man sitting in front. It is likely that smiling beautifully was forcibly pulled out by a smile. Or asking too much.

“Here's one.”

“Greetings, Yang Yang Yang Hwan. ”

Yang Yang Yang Hwan. The floor saw a smile. You're not family, are you?

“I met a friend in a play. And starting today, I'm gonna coach you personally. ”

“A personal map?”

“Is that him? ”

At the same time, words burst from the floor and Kanghwan's mouth. Again, he would have attended without explanation. I have to say, smiley.

“I don't know what you said to Joon-min, but you decided to focus on the play for three years in high school. Well, I guess I'll just have to learn, won't I? ”

The floor convinced me, so I nodded. Although I was digging through theater books and studying the basics, self-study was also difficult. If there is someone who teaches us, we can learn to act more efficiently.

“That's how it happened, so you shake hands. ”

A smile grabs his arm and throws it forward. The floor shakes slightly up and down, holding out its outstretched hand.

“Then I'll go. I have to introduce you to the others. ”

“Other kids? ”

“Nearby and massive. If you decide to raise her, it's her style to make sure she's pushed. Anyway, we need to talk. ”

The smile turns instead of walking toward the counter.

“Nice suit, by the way. Adult freak, kid freak. ”

Freak?

The floor gazes at the river. The lines are thick and look like a man, but the eyes are good and the overall impression is soft. A slightly lowered eye and a clown's tail tell me how often this person laughs. This guy looks good. He's a freak.

“Why are you a freak? ”

“Yes?”

“I'm just teasing with a smile. You look fine. Why do you call that a freak with a smile? ”

“I'm teasing you, too. A freak. He's perfectly normal. ”

“Isn't that right?"

“Yes.”

“Good. I only deal with normal people. Now that I know the name, what else should I find out? ”

“Did you allow me to do more? ”

“Teaching you? ”

“Yes, I heard that you had no idea. ”

“I've been asked to teach before. But did you know? About acting classes.”

“This is the first I've heard of you today. That, too, just now.”

“She's a dead end, after all. Anyway, let's wrap things up with me being your mentor. Oh, well, that doesn't mean I'm a great human being. I'm just letting you know the little knowledge I know. Don't count on it. ”

It was a smile. At that moment, one memory came to mind in the floor. The memory with some pain was about stiffness.

‘This person is also……. ’

An actor known to be a close friend of Hong Geun-soo. He was extremely popular despite being an actor who never showed up on screens or browntube at all. Ollie was an actor who bragged about the ugliness of human beings in every play and overstepped his reputation and criticism. The performance was also famous for acting, but it was also a drama that sparked the soul of a person. In those days, people who often used dark parts as a stage background referred to the drama of Ganghwan as a "painful play."

‘You know quite well. ’

Where did they get their knowledge? Obviously, the news didn't cover this story. I couldn't have read this side column because I was overwhelmed by work.

‘…… is that your wife? ’

Likely Maybe what you heard as a cute little thing when you were road manager is what's left of your brain. However, it was clear that he was famous enough to know.

‘Ah.'

One more thing came to mind. At that time, he brought 44 people to play again. I can clearly recall what the main character said in the interview. I tried to come back whenever he called me. It made me able to guess the depth of their friendship.

“Do you know Ms. Hong? ”

“Rookie? Oh, I forgot. You said you were clean, that's what you know. He's an old friend after all. ”

I make a frowny face by saying "friend." They must be absolutely revolting.

“Can we talk about this over dinner? I'm hungry.”

The two of them left the cafe and entered a nearby white house. It was time to order and wait.

“How did you find out about Joon-min? He's a very tricky guy, so I don't deal with dizzy kids. ”

“The instructor invited us secretly, and we played a short role in front of him. ”

“You caught my eye there. He has a passion for work, too. I've never seen you rest. Every time I'm raising someone, I'm in charge of acting with someone. So how did you decide to do it? I'm guessing you were aiming for theater and progress? ”

The floor shakes its head.

“I don't intend to go to college even if I continue to play. If you keep going, you're going to learn in the field. ”

“What, you don't go to college? No way."

“Is that weird?”

“Strange. Joon-min, you're famous for taking young kids like yourself. He always says it's best to take care of it from the bud. At that time, the senior has one condition. Go to college. You don't have to be in the studio. Humanity, philosophy, society. It was my boss who had to go to school and expand the learning framework. ”

The floor thought it could be. But he was not one of those customs. The contract was different in the first place.

“And what if the play goes on? That means you can quit while you're at it. ”

“Yes, I promised to play until I graduated from high school. And then if you like it, you can extend the contract, or you can quit. I was also not sure, so I thought it would be better. ”

“... That's strange. Did he take in a clumsy girl like you? You've changed a lot since I met you. Was it Joon-Min's suggestion to play until graduation? ”

“No, these are the conditions I proposed. ”

“B, what conditions did you propose!? ”

Kanghwan opened his mouth.

“So did Joon-min not offer you a beating until high school? ”

“Indeed.”

“Joon-min accepted it? ”

“So this is how we met, right? ”

“Tell me the sun rises from the west. ”

Kanghwan pulls out his cell phone and quickly dials the number. And I said, "Yes, sir. That's the river.” Looks like he called Joon-min.

After holding his head back a few times, he looks at the floor with an absurd look.

“Yes, I understand. Yes, I look forward to it soon ”

Kanghwan who hung up his phone looked at the floor and said.

“You're a freak. ”

* * *

‘High school 3 years. And 300 million. "

Sitting in front of him, he looks up at the floor and his tongue sticks out. High school student who wears mackerel tightly. You're saying that 300 million words came out of a high school student's mouth?

“You've got some nerve. 100 million a year. You think you're worth it? ”

“No.”

Look, it's just a cracking floor.

“And yet you made such a deal? ”

“Yes.”

“You didn't want to? ”

“Not really. I wanted to do it. There's a reason to do it. There are other talents I don't know about, so I'd like to check them out, too. ”

“And yet he called out 100 million. ”

“It used to be two billion. ”

“ ……. ”

“What's the matter? ”

“No. I was homeless for a while, and I was wondering if the price of Won had gone to shit. No?”

“No way. ”

“Hey, two billion. I had a few bills in my account. ”

Kanghwan stares intently at the ledge raising a fish bone. What is he doing? If you listen to him, you'll know he's not stabbed for fun. And it's not like Joon-min is going to fall for that kind of prank.

‘I liked it a lot. ’

I don't believe people's lives are worth more than money. There's money on people's lives. That's what a capital society feels like as a homeless person. Money kills people, money saves people, money kills people. It doesn't just sound like material versatility.

300 million. That's enough to kill and save lives. There was news yesterday that the loan killed herself for 20 million won. But 300 million. This is ridiculous money, and even more ridiculous than that, Jun-min paid this kid.

“Is money the reason you play? ”

“I want to make some money. And I've already made 300 million. I'm going to focus as much as I get it. ”

The floor quietly lowers the chopsticks.

“Are you bothered by the fact that you played for money? ”

“No, not at all. It's not like I'm meeting a grown man. Everyone works for money. I just want you to know that money can't always be the reason. ”

Maybe that's why the money started. All you have to do is pursue money your whole life. But at some point, you show up looking for something other than money. I know well because I have experienced Ganghwan.

“Coach, why are you playing? ”

“Me? To make money. ”

“I don't think that's all. ”

A smiling face. Kanghwan scratched his nose as if he could see through his heart.

“You'll find out if you continue to play. No, they're all the same. Writer, singer, cartoonist. People who live in this family, even if it was money, will at some point run for their only goal. ”

“What is it? ”

“Making my voice. I ended up heading for it. ”

It was the two of them who came out after finishing eating. Kanghwan hasn't figured out the floor yet. But I was glad I didn't hate him. If you had said something that would dress up the play, shaking your head, you would have been annoyed.

“But you were homeless earlier.... ”

“Oh, that. I didn't have enough data to prepare for the play. So I went to get the data. Feels good, doesn't it? ”

“Ah, so for a few days.... ”

“A few days? What are you talking about? I've known for three months. I couldn't wait any longer, so I was a little short, but I played. ”

“…… three months? ”

“Why?”

“Do you usually do that? ”

“I will. Maybe? ”

“You must have gone inside, right? ”

“No, he's homeless. He's homeless. ”

“Then three months outside.... ”

“Huh."

“ ……. ”

“Why?”

“You're a freak.”

“Me? You're joking. Compared to you, it's normal. Where are the two billion people in the world? I'm too ashamed to call it my ransom. ”

“I think it's perfectly normal for me to spend three months on the pavement. That dangerous thing……. ”

Kanghwan frowns and looks at the floor. The floor also scratched its eyebrows and looked at the steel. At that moment, a common thought came to mind between the two of them.

This guy's a little weird.

A lot of it.

Wow.

I was surprised when it felt like spring weather outside today.

It's spring already.

I hope the spring goes on for a long time.

But the tide will come back. -_-...

Please consider finishing today as well!! Let's end with.

Thank you for always pressing.

And thank you for the coupons. Hahaha!
