New Actor Audition 4PM

- Secret Productions

So you gave up acting, and only managing?

I didn't permanently retire from acting.

Gradually.

Once I retire, a new generation will grow.

A hot star like you shouldn't retire.

If you ask nicely,

I'll come running anytime.

I'll give my girls

pep talk on the set too.

The middle one with full cheeks is Plum.

The skinny one in sunglasses...

Cherry, take it off.

Your sunglasses!

She's confident.

And lastly...

She hasn't got a stage name yet.

She's from Japan, what'd be good?

Don't they all use fruit names now?

What's left?

Apricot?

Come on.

Sincerity has to be in the name.

Isn't it obvious?

Melon!

I like it, Melon!

Director!

I love it! I love melons so much!

Goes with summer breeze!

What name should I use?

You?

Use your real name.

Come on, how can I do that?

Director, what fruit do you like?

I like mango.

Mango? That's great!

You're Mango now.

That's not a name!

I actually thought of a few good names.

How's Richard Yum? Dick Yum?

She's got a great pair.

Or Jack Hammer?

You're Mango, you look like it.

Camera's ready. Mango, come in.

But I...

Not Mango, let's do Plum first.

Short intro and topless screen test.

Hello, my name is Plum.

Pleased to meet you.

Her body is a work of art,

not a shred of exaggeration.

She'd good as a jail bait.

Plum.

Hands up.

Next up is Melon!

Hello everyone! My name is Yuko.

She's a heavyweight, very top heavy.

Thank you... very much.

Undress please.

Very good...

Whoa!

I don't believe it.

-So annoying.

-Why?

You f***ing idiot!

What did you stab me with?

Move your hands.

I'm fine.

You're fine?

I'm really fine.

I was the one violated, and you're fine?

Move your hands, move them!

You dirty bastard! Look at him!

Seriously!

Dae-yoon, go make us some coffee.

Okay.

Did he jizz on my shirt?

He's still a baby.

I feel so dirty.

First time's always the same.

INSPECT HER GADGE Director.

Someone else's here for an audition.

-Audition?

-Yes.

CONFERENCE ROOM:

One moment please.

CEO'S OFFICE

THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DICK

BIG WAVE:

EUN-SU JUNG

It wasn't an open casting call,

how did you find out?

I'm very close with the writer

of An Officer and a Nurse.

I see.

Are we doing a topless?

Yes, we should, because...

it's hot...

Go outside.

It's hot in here.

You worked on a lot of films.

When I was a kid, I did some acting.

I don't know if you know

about our production,

but we make arthouse films here.

Stripped down arthouse, if you will.

Take me now.

We bare our soul for art.

Auditioning for a sick patient.

I see...

Wait!

Isn't she great?

She's so good that she's already casted.

So what we want

to create is this soul-baring film.

Mankind's pain!

Emotions and wrath!

And where our soul came from

and where it's going.

Psychological discernment,

and our psyche with the universe...

Did she die?

Go ahead when you're ready.

Aren't I suppose to get a script?

Yes, usually.

But we'll go with impromptu acting.

-Thank you!

-Good work, sir!

Director?

How did you like them?

They're all really great.

So that's your type!

Yuko, I mean, Melon,

she knows belly dance!

-Dae-yoon!

-She can really move.

-See her out.

-It's hot.

-This way please.

-Sure.

-Off you go!

-See you soon!

Let's go!

Take care!

PRESIDENT'S OFFICE

-Jun-su...

-Stop it...

Stop it! Just stop!

JUNG-WOO PARK

I was only five. I never wanted it.

It's what you wanted me to do.

Even at that age, I wanted

to please you and went to sets,

but once I got used to it,

you two got divorced,

and took me to Spain.

You threw me away.

But what? You want to see me on TV again?

How could you burden me

with your last breaths?

I'll be an actress,

a real one.

Not because of your will.

I want to show you

that I can do fine on my own.

End scene.

What movie was that from?

That wasn't from a movie.

Okay...

We'll be in touch. Great work.

Could I meet the director?

I can wait, I really want to meet him.

He's out of town on a location scouting.

Tada! Here's the director!

Wait! Hey, wait up!

Come on...

Where the heck did you get that dress?

-Is this funny?

-No, not at all.

It looks good on you.

I know! I'm sorry, I should've told you.

But you came unannounced...

Sure, I told you to audition,

but why here?

I didn't advise you

to come here, am I right?

You said to chase a good project!

Wait...

Do you really want to do this film?

To be honest, we aren't a regular film...

We are... How should I put it...

What I'm saying is... we make...

Po... porn...

Pornography.

Jin-hwan, bring me today's audition tapes.

And Jun-su,

print out all open casting calls,

and could you find me some scripts?

-Bring them to me.

-Sure.

Get the tapes.

No vacancy anywhere...

Going somewhere?

I saw your audition tape.

Pretty good.

There's a big audition coming up.

I'll help you.

Stay here until then.

MORNING IN THE CASTLE

Pretending to be cool.

I like Silver Bell

and Morning in the Castle too.

Zombie Korea has its merits.

Read all those scripts today,

and select tomorrow.

We'll schedule it accordingly,

and practice.

How do I use this?

The manual's not there for show.

What should I do?

Should I do everything?

You need to focus!

Don't divert your attention,

one at a time.

Then...

I pick Morning in the Castle.

Whatever.

All right! This is it!

So where should we

practice starting tomorrow?

-"We"?

-Yup.

You're asking me to act?

Yes!

Forget it, screw that.

Don't directors have basic acting chops?

As a director, that's a given...

Sure.

No, I won't do it.

Our workflow shifted from 4-3-3,

to a 4-4-2 format.

Four actors, four crew members,

two shoot days.

Kiddo, you're the driver,

and boom operator.

-Okay?

-Yes.

Jun-su, you're the DP,

and equipment manager.

Bulletproof prep today,

exciting shoot tomorrow.

Scene-by-scene time.

-How many copies?

-Make four copies.

Okay.

No, never mind! Make it three copies!

Learn from our director.

He's already studying the script.

-Dae-yoon!

-Sir?

-Make it four.

-Okay.

MORNING IN THE CASTLE

MATE HOTEL:

Good afternoon, welcome.

-Got a party room?

-Yes, we do.

SIGN PAD:

Let's get things rolling!

And we'll wrap early! Let's do this!

INSPECT HER GADGE This is...

a conspiracy.

Cut!

The killer is here.

Don't move!

Cut!

-Don't move!

-Cut!

There's a conspiracy...

Cut!

-Don't move!

-Cut!

Do you know why I stopped?

Suk-bong!

How's it looking?

Not sure, focusing is hard on this.

Why's he so perky today?

Yeah, he looks upbeat.

He's weird. He keeps laughing.

Look, he's laughing as he talks.

The killer is one of you, so look uneasy.

Ready, action!

I'm so sorry!

As you were!

Let's go one more time!

-Roll camera?

-Ready!

Action!

Doesn't it feel nice to be out?

Do you remember? From where we were...

Going well?

No, I can't get into character.

This part takes place in Mt. Nam,

but I've never been.

That's Mt. Nam there,

look at it while practicing.
