Rough Play Page #3

films and fade away.

Think rationally.

You can do whatever you want,

only if you last.

Which means you have to survive.

It's an important meeting.

If you're not up for it,

just shut your mouth

for an hour.

- Got it?

- Who is it?

Boss!

I've brought Oh Young.

Bring him in a little later.

Who's that?

The money.

I'm sorry I couldn't

come by more often.

He's been in demand everywhere.

The lead actress on this film

is Kim Sun-ae, right?

Yes.

Let's put Hong Ji-min instead.

Boss, but she's...

she has faded into obscurity.

How can we put her with Young?

You want him out too?

I'll talk to the investors.

Look after Ji-min too,

you can raise her back up.

I don't...

have that kind of power.

I know you can, idiot.

You're a rehab specialist.

But boss, she's too much,

you know that.

- We all know her history.

- F*** that.

Are we selecting a nun?

How can I rehab a girl

who slept with half the city?

Known as a free snack...

I'm sorry,

I crossed the line.

Half the city? Free snack?

Really?

Need your quarterly beatings

for some modesty?

Buddy, you're Oh Young?

Yes.

Do your best.

Let's do our best,

in many ways.

You two did Moebius together.

I'll take Kim Sun-ae out.

She needs some time

to prep her TV series.

Forget it,

I can get Ji-min something else.

A $100 million project.

A blockbuster.

- I'm bored.

- Is there anything fun?

Ladies!

Don't you worry!

With a 7" K-7 tablet,

we can play

games!

10" Revolution for me!

Director, this isn't

what we discussed.

What is?

Young doesn't

stand out enough!

You've seen the storyboard.

This isn't right,

this just won't do.

Hold up!

We'll stop the shoot here!

What the hell?

We're gonna stop

because of an actor?

"Because of an actor"?

That attitude is the problem!

Young doesn't have the time

to be jerked around!

Manager Kim, let's talk outside.

I'm no manager!

I'm a CEO!

Don't make me repeat!

Young! Let's go!

What's wrong?

Everything was fine.

Nothing's wrong.

We gotta be fussy now and then

to keep them in check.

This'll take care of

minor chores.

You'll give me a bad rep.

Is that what you want?

Watch your damn mouth!

- This is all for you!

- For me?

Cut the bullshit.

Think you're a big shot now?!

Goddammit!

How dare you?!

Young! Young!

Stop it!

Son of a b*tch!

Come at me!

Let's stop it, alright?

Fine! It's over!

Not a trace of

loyalty whatsoever!

Did I sign up for that loyalty?

I'll hand over the contract,

we're through.

Fine.

We're through!

Holy crap!

Look at his face!

What?

Say it?!

Want a better look?

What a weirdo.

Let's go.

How much?

So different from his films.

Are you gonna keep boxing?

Why?

Come work with me.

Prosecutors aren't gods,

I coulda been a cop too!

It's a dog eat dog world.

We're no different.

You're all grown up now.

I made you.

Should've asked for life sentence.

I took pity on you,

but you became

an incurable cancer!

Speak the truth.

Who's the cancer?

Shall I split you open?!

Cut!

I'm sorry sir!

I didn't mean to be so rude.

No, you were in character.

- Good work.

- Thank you.

- The last part.

- Yes?

How about a tad stronger?

Like fierce concentration.

That's... amazing!

- No, it was fine.

- Thank you.

Excuse me.

Heard you don't have

a manager anymore.

My boss would like to meet you.

Well...

My manager's right here.

- Looks like a friend.

- He's my manager.

We'll pick you up

after the shoot.

He's looking after me,

so I don't need another.

My boss does not

move easily for anyone.

Let him stay difficult.

Mom, mom, mom!

Once more?

Ring, ring!

F***, another bites the dust.

Is this the police?

I just killed another mad dog.

Here? This is...

Figure it out,

I'm not leaving.

- So hard to find this place!

- What is it?

Life's good?

- Well, you know...

- What do you want?

I get calls from people

who think I still manage you.

A $100 million film wants you.

Give me the number,

I'll read the script first.

I read the script already,

it's good.

Contract's all done.

We're through!

Our deal's over!

It's a $100 million film!

You get a stake in it too!

The terms are favorable.

Let's end things cleanly with this.

Then you shouldn't be doing this.

You thought I'd just walk away

with some pocket change?

Then what?

There's still 6 months left

in our contract,

- legally.

- Don't be f***ing stubborn!

Have you lost it?

Get out!

Throw him out.

- Please leave.

- Stop!

- Don't you dare!

- Toss him out!

Let go!

Fine, just watch me!

You call yourself my manager?

Can't you tell?

You shouldn't have let him in!

- I'm sorry.

- Why scream at him?

It's fine.

Sorry, I don't know

what came over me.

I'm sorry.

You see?

I'm not such a bad guy.

You're the best.

Can I tell you that I love you?

I love you.

What did you do with him?

We just had dinner.

Really?

Honey, you're being weird.

I want to go back.

Back to our beautiful memories.

Why didn't I realize

they were beautiful?

We're always walking in place.

What? You want to come back?

- What?

- Or...

just wanted to see the play?

Who's the director?

The old style director.

70/30 for the contract,

50/50 for the stake.

I want to keep my manager.

Just for this film.

Nothing more.

You think I'm doing this

for money?

You think I'm doing this

for money?

Isn't money

all you're interested in?

Don't say that,

I had a dream too.

Cut! Cut!

The lines are too old style?

No, director!

The lines are amazing!

I can feel...

years of experience.

- Hello, Ms. Hong.

- Afternoon.

I'm your 6 p.m. interview.

You're a reporter,

good to see you!

How do you act so well?

I'm still nervous

since it's my comeback.

Young.

Do you know you're in

the $100 million film 'cos of Kim?

Will you stay without a rep?

I'll introduce you to

the head of Actors' Heaven.

They do a lot of

international productions.

Get in there along with Ji-min.

Popularity never lasts.

It's all the same

when time passes.

Nothing lasts,

you think you're different?

It's because you don't

have a heart.

You don't even trust the world.

I don't have a heart?

What's this then?

And who made me this way?

I'm the one, I did it!

How long will you blame others?

Is it your hobby

to make people go nuts?!

This is hell.

Cut!

What's wrong, Young?

Shouldn't she be crying

in this scene?

Ji-min,

can you do that?

Sir, I was planning to cry

in the next scene.

And cry on the inside

in this one...

Can the camera capture that?

Are you giving me

an acting lesson?

Even top veteran actress

didn't do that.

I'm breaking character

because of you!

Ji-min,

give me some tears.

Will that be enough?

Must you use that?

An actress can't even cry?

I can't tear up at all!

Scene 74, 2 and 5.

Action!

I'm the one, I did it!

How long will you blame others?

Is it your hobby

to make people go nuts?!

This is hell.

Cut!

It was good, what now?

Crying alone won't do,

the delivery was too cold.
