My Own Korean Drama
Chapter 19 - Viewpoint
April 2019
My heart misses the set enough. Today I accompanied Ji Ah to read the script with the other cast members. I was quite nervous because my co-star this time was Park Hae In. He's quite famous. Jung Seo also knew him quite closely.
Back in the day, that spirit was back. I think a hiatus is necessary, see now I am very excited like the first time I starred in a drama. Several times we laughed at the strange tone for the dialogue. Someone enters the room while the room is quiet. It's Min-wook.
“Yes! Here comes our star!” Welcome the producers of this drama.
“Annyeonghaseyo PD-nim” greetings Min-wook while bending over. My world was silent for a moment seeing Min-wook who suddenly entered the room. I had absolutely no idea that we would be involved in one project.
“Park Min-wook ssi is an impromptu star,” said PD-nim then chuckled. “He will fill the spy character without name.” Connect PD-nim again. The contents of my head wandered for quite a while until I finally realized that Min-wook was just being a figurehead. I was quite relieved to realize that, but on the other hand was tucked away in disappointment.
MY OWN KOREAN DRAMA
The fragrant smell of strawberries flew around as I got off the van. Lee Ji Hyun appeared to bow several times to the halmoni before finally realizing my presence. I called out to halmoni and hugged her.
“Aigoo, granddaughter of this one grandmother remains like a baby,” said halmoni still with me in his arms.
“I will only be here for a while before I film again,”
“Halmoni is very sure it is the best decision!” Halmoni with a smile.
“Thank you halmoni,” I said sincerely then hugged halmoni even tighter.
There's not much I do here. I enjoyed having dinner with Halmoni and then watching television with him. There were times when I missed this moment, lived like everyone else but sometimes the life of Trine McKenzie also made me miss. Halmoni entered his room at eight o'clock, while I went out to the terrace of the house facing the plantation. The moonlight shone on me, and that was when Lee Ji Hyun approached me.
“The moon tonight is beautiful isn't it?” Ask pleasantries. Lee Ji Hyun snorted amusedly.
“Christina-ssi, the beauty of it is just a moment.”
“Isn't it beautiful? He dared to show himself from behind the clouds,”
“Is that?” Ask who.
“Someone you want to talk about?” I asked this time without further ado.
“What do you mean?” I ask not to understand.
“During this time, I was Auriga's man. I am a spy.”
“How is it possible? You were even here long before I got here,”
“Auriga was a control freak, once Auriga fell in love with you, I was immediately flown here. Every week I have to send a report to Aquila Mansion.” Ji Hyun replied, looking at me deeply. I fell silent not knowing what to react to his confession.
“Then why are you admitting all that now?” My toot.
“Today I resign after being ruled by Mrs Dialeni. I just feel like you need to know that, I want to make sure Auriga's feelings really get to you,”.
“I never thought of him as evil, it's just that people's point of view will be different about him depending on which side, for me he will still be the first love to have his own space,” I explained to him. Right, from my point of view Auriga will always be Christina McKenzie's first love.
“I'm glad to hear it.” Ji Hyun closed the conversation with a smile.
MY OWN KOREAN DRAMA
I went into my room as the night got late. I'm rolling out a folding mattress where I'm resting tonight. I took my bag. A white box caught the sense of sight. I don't know why I realized the box was still there. Latest albums by Gu Boy. I took out the white box. Actually I already have one in the apartment so I was not too enthusiastic to open when Hyun Sik gave it to me. The album is no longer sealed. I opened the front page first containing the sequence of Gu Boy songs on this album. This album is the second part. My eyes were fixed on the sixth song. Crisis. The writing was crossed out and then written Love Poem beside him using dark blue ink. An envelope fell from the album. The envelope is black. Min-wook Park's. The name is on the envelope.
I was silent long enough to digest what was going on. What Min-wook really wants. I slowly opened the envelope and took out the contents. A paper and an apartment access card.
I don't know why I wrote this. I just feel like we don't have to be like this. I feel like there are unfinished things between us. If parting is the best decision, then let's do it. If not, come to me.
Park Min-wook's.
This letter has been written for 8 months. I don't know if this still happens or not. This letter weighs me down. There is a burden of longing tucked between the written word. This letter makes me re-flow the river that has long receded. My heart can't lie anymore. This letter was not written by my first love but this letter was able to revive the heart that hurt first love.
I hugged myself with a breath of air from crying. I didn't know that there was this possibility. Eight years ago when I arrived in Daegu, it did not cross my mind that there would be a new love coming towards me. The further I go, the more new points of view will continue to come, and that's when I will realize that nothing is certain in life.
Lee Ji Hyun's point of view was not wrong, he was just defending the person who hired him, he was just getting a point of view as a spy. The place I saw was different, I closed my story with Auriga, and accidentally opened a new page with Min-wook. Everyone has their own story. One can be the main character in one's story but can also be a figure in another story. One thing is for sure, the decision will be taken from where we see a story. Whether others agree with the decision or not, we are the biggest power holders in our own stories.
