Episode 19
***
The Behind-the-Scenes Content Production Team was in high spirits.
“Doyeon, I….”
“Again!”
“Ah, I haven’t even finished all my lines yet!”
“Hmm, agaaain!”
“Doyeon….”
“Again, agaaaaaain!”
“This is driving me crazy!”
Child actor Yeon Doyeon, the kid who had devoured the script reading site with her vocal projection and immersion, was producing content on her own again!
“What the hell is wrong with it!”
“It’s awkward! What kind of Yeon Do-hun is this!”
“‘Yeon Do-hun is this’? You’re speaking informally to me now…!”
“What kind of Yeon Do-hun is this supposed to be!”
When they first started acting coaching through Seong Hye-sim’s arrangement, it was so awkward that the surrounding air seemed to freeze, but as they shared coaching sessions, the two seemed to have grown closer.
“Wow, Ju Sae-i, you try it!”
“Yes, I’ll do it! Watch!”
It seemed like they were just shouting at each other….
Either way, to others it was just an interesting situation.
A rookie filming their debut work scolding a senior, and showing near-perfect acting even though it wasn’t their own role.
Really, everything was refreshing.
Moreover….
“The visuals are coming out again. How do the actors playing Yeon Doyeon and Yeon Do-hun end up like this.”
“Exactly. The feeling is really good.”
Of all things, they were producing content like this with the faces of Yeon Doyeon and Yeon Do-hun, who appear as siblings in the work.
From the behind-the-scenes team’s perspective, it felt like a blessing had rolled their way while they just sat there.
“…How’s my Yeon Do-hun!”
“…Go-good! You play Yeon Do-hun! Playing two roles at once, how nice!”
“Don’t say things you don’t mean!”
“Then what do you want me to do! Even when I say you’re good, you’re like this!”
“If we’re being honest, you’re pretty good too, senior? Don’t you know it’s harder to teach someone who’s already good?”
“…Is that so?”
Oh my. Now he was receiving coaching while laughing happily again.
Byeon Seo-jun, who had been visibly flustered after flubbing his lines, seemed to have overcome his emotions.
He gratefully placed his hand on top of Ju Sae-i’s head, who was much smaller than him.
The handsome face laughing as if relieved of a burden in his heart was captured by the behind-the-scenes team’s camera. It was a smile that made even the viewers feel refreshed.
“I got my hair done! What if I have to redo it again!”
“Then redo it.”
“This is driving me crazy!”
Before, Byeon Seo-jun was the one groaning that he was going crazy, but after the coaching ended, the tables had turned.
Ju Sae-i stomping her feet trying to escape from Byeon Seo-jun’s grasp was being filmed looking very adorable.
“Oh my, struggling.”
“…!”
“I don’t know why I was afraid of you. You’re just good at acting, but you’re just a little kid.”
“I don’t know what it was, but it’s resolved now, right? The thing about not being able to deliver lines.”
“Yeah. Thanks to you.”
Sae-i, who barely managed to remove Byeon Seo-jun’s hand, smiled brightly as if relieved.
The uncles who had been watching while filming the situation also smiled along. They were unknowingly becoming fans of Ju Sae-i.
“…Aren’t those two really siblings?”
“They even have similar vibes. Good casting….”
Filming the two who bickered like real siblings but quickly softened up, the entire behind-the-scenes team smacked their lips. It was a situation that would be fun to edit.
The team leader, who had been around the video industry for a while, had an intuition.
‘The reaction will be no joke if we release the behind-the-scenes right after episode 1 airs.’

***
The choice to receive coaching from Ju Sae-i was not wrong.
When he was first dragged by Seong Hye-sim and led to Ju Sae-i, he had no idea the effect would be this good.
Ju Sae-i didn’t teach him many things. She just watched his acting, showed her own acting, and gave him opportunities to realize things himself.
‘Now that we’re close, she really seems like a little sister….’
When did he stop being nervous because she was a senior? Watching Ju Sae-i bark and scold him like a Chihuahua right in front of him, she seemed to resemble his own sister living at home.
The moment Ju Sae-i felt comfortable, he could see the gaps in his acting that needed improvement. More precisely, the parts he had missed while trying not to be overshadowed in front of Ju Sae-i.
‘I think I understand why Senior Seong Hye-sim suggested coaching.’
Acting isn’t something you do alone, but something you melt into with your partner. The more he understood Ju Sae-i and treated each other without formality, the more he could see the ‘Yeon Do-hun’ he needed to express.
It felt like he had injected vitality into his stagnant acting skills.
Byeon Seo-jun and Ju Sae-i received an okay in one take without a single NG in the resumed scene filming.
The filming continued smoothly after that. Even though Byeon Seo-jun had finished filming all his scenes for the day, he didn’t leave and remained on set.
Solely to take in more of Ju Sae-i’s Yeon Doyeon with his eyes.
Just watching gave him the feeling that he could grow even more—that’s what Ju Sae-i’s acting was like.
***
The set was now facing the filming of the last scene of the day.
“I heard you caused a ruckus with Byeon Seo-jun.”
Dojehyeon, who arrived late after completing a photo shoot schedule, spoke to me as I sat resting.
Since the setup wasn’t finished yet, a makeup artist was still attending to him.
Due to Dojehyeon’s incredibly tight schedule, there was only one scene we would film today as Doyeon and Hajin. Even that was very short.
‘He puts so much effort into just that one scene. He really works hard too.’
Will I have to live like Dojehyeon when I get busy? Honestly, I’m more excited than scared.
‘I want to film more, much more quickly….’
Once I got a taste of the set, I felt like I might get addicted.
Ah, won’t another project come from somewhere…. I quietly imagined myself prowling around like a hyena looking for my next work.
But calling it a ruckus! How dare he make such a comment about my sacred coaching.
I was itching to explain how effective that coaching was.
If he knew that all the scenes Byeon Seo-jun and I were in got okayed without a single NG, he couldn’t call it a ‘ruckus’!
Dojehyeon would never know how much the production staff praised me.
Byeon Seo-jun was also inwardly grateful, staying on set for a long time even though his filming portion was finished. Of course, he had to leave because of his schedule.
“…Still, don’t get unnecessarily involved with that guy.”
“Why?”
From my memory, Byeon Seo-jun had no controversies.
Ah, no wait.
Right after he transitioned to acting, there was briefly a robotic acting controversy…. But he resolved that issue with endless effort and basic talent.
When I looked at Dojehyeon with curiosity, he added.
“He’s not a bad person, and I’m acquainted with him too.”
“…Then why?”
“I’m worried he might be scary to you. I heard he was yelling during coaching earlier too.”
…Didn’t he hear that I was yelling too?
My heart, which had jumped at the mention that Byeon Seo-jun wasn’t a bad person, immediately calmed down.
We had become somewhat close, so I was worried that if he was actually a shady person behind the scenes, I wouldn’t be able to focus on filming going forward.
“Anyway, tell me if that guy gives you a hard time.”
He tells me not to get involved because he might be scary to me, then tells me to speak up if he bothers me…
I’m grateful, but isn’t that not something Dojehyeon should say after rudely ignoring me and speaking so unpleasantly at our first meeting…?
And! There seems to be one thing Dojehyeon is missing right now.
“Hey, but I’m your noona.”
“…”
“Don’t pretend you didn’t hear me.”
I thought he forgot I was a year older and was calling me informally, but he was just calling me however he wanted. His dismissive attitude was annoying.
“You heard everything…”
“Doyeon, Hajin, let’s get ready for filming!”
Timing is not on my side.
Just then, Dojehyeon, who had finished setting up, jumped up at the staff’s call. Without any response to my saying I was his noona, he simply extended his hand to me as I remained seated.
“Let’s go.”
Fine. With the mindset of filming quickly and going home, the moment I grabbed his hand and looked up.
‘…Now I understand why they cast Dojehyeon.’
With his slightly lowered tone, his sun-kissed skin, and his natural hairstyle that looked effortlessly styled.
A beautiful boy who seemed uninterested in grooming but received all the love of Oksongri village residents in the countryside with just his natural looks.
Dojehyeon was Yu Hajin himself.
