Superstar From Age 0

Chapter 631

[Concerto for Two Violins]

The violin piece composed by actor Seo-jun Lee was still loved by many people even after four years. It was also a piece that anyone who learned violin would want to play at least once. There were many cases where it was arranged for other instruments such as piano or guitar.

There was a question that anyone who liked this piece would think of at least once.

Who was Bin, the one who played the second violin?

-Jason Moore?

=Then they would have written Jason Moore.

=And the style doesn’t feel like Jason Moore.

-Isn’t he a friend of Seo-jun? A violin major student from Yeoul Arts High School or Mirinae Arts High School.

=22 He plays so well, maybe it’s him?

-It’s been four years and they still don’t know who he is

=If I were him, I would write Bin on my forehead and walk around.

=22 He really brags everywhere.

-He must be famous by now with that skill. Any guesses?

=But if he does it as a hobby, we can’t know who he is.

=With that skill, as a hobby??

=Seo-jun does it as a hobby too.

=Oh.

=

Not only in Korea, but also abroad, there were many people who were curious about Bin’s identity.

“But he’s an eight-year-old kid?”

As his colleague reporter said incredulously, Cooper spoke with a serious expression as if to persuade him.

“Think about it. He was 12 when he beat 18-year-old violinists and won first place. You heard it too. He plays well even compared to the category 3 entrants. No, that’s not it. It’s amazing that a 12-year-old’s performance can be compared to adults’ skills.”

Cooper talked enthusiastically, spitting saliva.

“Then he must have been amazing when he was eight! And you know, music is a field where you have to decide your career early. Young geniuses are rare, but not impossible.”

“…Well, that’s true.”

The colleague reporter also had some young geniuses in mind. Among them was a Korean violinist, Se Ah Kwon, who had changed her career to film music.

‘Come to think of it, she was also related to Seo-jun Lee.’

He was distracted for a moment and then came to his senses.

“Then what are you going to do?”

“I have to ask him first. If Su Bin Kim is Bin. If he is, I’ll interview him.”

“What if he’s not?”

“Well, I can’t help it. It’ll be a little embarrassing and that’s it. But I have a good feeling. I think Su Bin Kim is Bin.”

Cooper shrugged his shoulders and took out the business card of Su Bin Kim’s father, Hee Sang Kim, without hesitation.

***

“Already?”

Seo-jun opened his eyes wide.

During dinner, Hee Sang Kim, who had received a phone call, told them what Cooper had said. Benjamin and Jason Moore also listened with interest.

“How did he find out?”

“Right. I thought the fans would find out…”

“Cooper is a fan of Seo-jun.”

Aha.

They all nodded in agreement.

“The fans did find out.”

They all laughed at Jason’s words, and Seo-jun also smiled.

“I didn’t know he was a fan. And I didn’t expect him to find out so quickly.”

It was just after the awards ceremony, and he had been playing with Su Bin and was just having dinner.

Su Hee Choi, who was eating with a satisfied expression, moved some fresh salad to Su Bin’s plate and asked.

“So what did you say?”

“I said yes. He asked if it was okay to interview him, but I said I’d think about it.”

They all nodded at Hee Sang’s words.

“Do we have to do the interview?”

“It depends on the situation, but I think it’s good to do it once.”

As Jason Moore opened his mouth, Hee Sang and Su Hee listened carefully.

“Obviously, there will be a lot of curiosity when Bin’s identity is revealed, and the reporters will contact us a lot to find out. Isn’t that the case in Korea too?”

“Yes.”

Hee Sang and Su Hee nodded like students listening to a lesson.

“If we tell the story beforehand, it will solve some of the public’s curiosity, and we might suffer less.”

“That makes sense…”

Of course, there would still be reporters who would come, but there would also be many who would just copy and paste.

“If we do the interview, they will probably ask mostly about the story with Jun, so it would be better to decide how much to tell.”

“That’s true. Seo-jun, can we ask Da Ho and Kings Agency for help?”

Hee Sang nodded at Benjamin’s words and asked Seo-jun. Seo-jun readily answered.

“It’s okay. It’s related to me, and it’s Su Bin’s thing.”

“You’re filming in Ohio tomorrow. I’m worried it might interfere with your work.”

Seo-jun was going to Cleveland, Ohio, which was about two hours away by plane from New York, tomorrow morning. The [Over the Rainbow 2] crew had already left and were probably busy preparing for the shooting.

Seo-jun smiled and said.

“It’s okay. I have Tae Woo hyung.”

If Tae Woo heard that, he would have frozen.

***

The next day.

Ohio, Cleveland.

The Kings Agency staff, manager Tae Woo Choi, and actor Seo-jun Lee all arrived safely at the accommodation where they would stay while filming in Cleveland. As soon as they arrived, Tae Woo, who didn’t rest for a second, took out his phone.

“Then I’ll contact the crew and let them know we’ve arrived!”

“Haha. Take it easy. Take it easy.”

The Kings Agency staff and Seo-jun smiled at the sight of Tae Woo walking stiffly.

“Director An isn’t here, so he must be nervous. He could relax his shoulders a bit.”

“Right.”

If Tae Woo heard that, he would have cried, ‘If I make a mistake, I could ruin the shooting…!’

“Jun. Should I contact Director An?”

“No. I’ll do it.”

An Da Ho was in New York now.

He said it was a good opportunity, and told him to work on his own for a few hours, and left Tae Woo in charge and went to support Su Bin’s interview.

<Da Ho hyung.

<We’ve arrived.

Andaho: The interview has started here too.

<Please take care of Subin.

-Don’t worry.

-(A picture of Subin during the interview)

Seo-jun smiled as he looked at the picture that Andaho sent him. Subin was sitting upright in the interview.

Meanwhile, Choi Tae Woo, who had contacted the filming crew, came back.

“The filming will start as planned in the afternoon… Seo-jun, are you feeling okay?”

“Yes, I’m fine.”

“Then you can rest a bit and go to the set. Next is… lunch! Let’s eat lunch!”

Seo-jun and the staff of Kings Agency laughed at Choi Tae Woo’s flustered look.

***

The next filming location was a concert hall in Cleveland.

It was where ‘Gray Vainy’s concert would take place.

Seo-jun, who had watched the staff prepare for the filming in New York, headed to the actor’s dressing room and waiting room with Choi Tae Woo.

“Jun, you’re here!”

Catherine Miller and Paul Oden, who had arrived earlier, greeted Seo-jun.

Unlike Seo-jun, who had a fun day with Subin in New York yesterday, Catherine and Paul, who had no schedule or appointments, had moved with the filming crew.

“You both came early?”

Seo-jun tilted his head as he had to come early to wear a wig. Catherine and Paul smiled and said.

“There was nothing to do at the hotel.”

“Me too. I’ve seen the lake. It was huge.”

“Erie?”

“Yeah.”

It was one of the large lakes between Ohio and Canada, and there was a scene to be filmed at a nearby park later.

“Jun! You’re already here!”

“Thank you for your hard work today.”

The makeup team staff appeared when they heard that Seo-jun had arrived. They then sat Seo-jun in front of the mirror and put on his wig.

“Wow…”

It was the first time they saw him from the beginning. Catherine and Paul looked at Seo-jun with interest.

***

“We’ll start filming!”

The set became quiet at Emily’s voice, the assistant director.

It was a similar situation to the filming in New York, but there was a difference. It was that they would film as a ‘documentary filming team’ from now on.

‘Documentary.’

Seo-jun, who had finished his makeup, looked around the cameras installed inside the waiting room for the performers.

If movies and dramas don’t recognize the camera at all, documentaries could recognize the camera or not. Looking at the camera itself was also a ‘real appearance’.

He had scenes where he was conscious of the camera when he traveled in [Flowing] and when he filmed a cameo in [Babel Tower], but he thought it would be really fun to do that throughout the movie filming.

Sara Roth, the director, smiled brightly at Seo-jun’s face, which was full of interest. She felt lucky as a director to have an actor who liked her work as much as he did.

‘Catherine and Paul too.’

They were working hard as if they were starring in their own work, even though they had a small amount of footage because it was a documentary of ‘Gray Vainy’.

They were all waiting for the start of the filming with joy and anticipation, but there was one serious person alone.

‘Method acting… Be careful…!’

Choi Tae Woo, the manager who was nervous after being left alone with Andaho, who he could rely on, stayed in New York. He looked at Seo-jun with determination not to miss a single moment.

Huh?

Seo-jun was only puzzled by Choi Tae Woo’s burning eyes.

“Ready, action!”

The waiting room for the performers.

Gray Vainy, who was wearing casual clothes, looked at the camera awkwardly. He had an expression that the cameras, lights, and staff that filled the waiting room that was always alone were unfamiliar.

“Um. Do you film everything like this, George?”

George’s voice came from across the camera.

“Yeah. Just think there’s no camera and be comfortable. Comfortable.”

“…There are so many.”

“You’ll get used to it. Just act as usual as if we’re not here. You’ll get used to it soon.”

Gray scratched his cheek.

“Will I get used to this?”

He was so unfamiliar with the camera that he might have muttered to himself.

“Gray! I brought your clothes!”

The door opened and Rebecca came in. She had a well-ironed black suit in her hand. Gray quickly took the suit and said.

“You don’t have to do this.”

“No. I have to help you somehow since I joined your schedule. I have nothing to do. Is there anything else I can help you with?”

Rebecca, who had taken a vacation and had nothing to do, decided to join Gray’s concert schedule.

She had solved the accommodation and transportation with her own money, but she felt sorry for suddenly joining and decided to help with the chores.

Gray smiled softly.

She was still kind Rebecca.

“I’m fine for now.”

“Then let me know if you need anything. Oh? Were you filming?”

“It just started.”

The monitor showed Gray and Rebecca looking at the camera behind them. George’s voice followed, and George’s presence across the camera was naturally felt.

The audience who would watch the movie would also know that George was behind the camera.

“Ah, Gray. Hurry up and change your clothes. You don’t have much time left.”

“Okay. I got it.”

Gray nodded at Rebecca’s words.

He smiled a little as the waiting room, which was always quiet, became noisy.

***

George approached Gray, who had changed into a suit, with a camera. Gray smiled awkwardly and avoided his eyes as the camera lens came close.

It was a sight that could not be seen from Seo-jun Lee, who was not flustered even with dozens of cameras.

“Please introduce yourself.”

He had heard that he would be interviewed during the filming, but he didn’t expect it to be so sudden. Gray paused for a moment and smiled sheepishly as he looked at the camera and bowed.

“Hello. I’m violinist Gray Vainy.”
