At the words of Palin, Richard Bowin held his forehead. He had a headache just thinking about what happened a few months ago.
âYou need to think about this thoroughly.â
âDirector Ryan Will? I heard it from him and the plot was great.â
A few months ago, while Palin was on a business trip, a meeting was held.
Ryan Will proposed Shadowman to become a series. This wasnât the problem, what gave them a big problem is the plot proposed by him.
William will become Shadowmanâs biggest villain.
They didnât think that the role, initially thought of as an extra, will also be the one that would appear throughout the Shadowman series.
Aside from the charactersâ ages, this was also a story with main characters as Asian and Westerner.
Ryan Will, who attended the meeting, looked into Richard Bowinâs eyes as he sat with his arms folded.
The people in the meeting room, who had been arguing, also went silent at the sight of director Ryan Will, who looked at them without any comment.
There was no other sound inside the conference room.
What a terrible sight.
Richard Bowin face palmed himself recalling what had happened inside the conference.
âIt will definitely stain our reputation if you donât listen to me, youâd literally make a movie about Marineâs racism.â
âHahaha. Ryan Will knows how to handle it. Maybe we would win the grand prize this time.â
ââŠAre you on Willâs side because youâre Korean?â
His full name is Palin Park. He shrugged at Richard Bowinâs words.
âIn this time, nothing is more stupid than judging a person from the country they came from. More than that, this is more important.â
âHmm? What is it?â
âRedborn 2 revenue analytics and audience by country. Well, donât you think it is okay for a Korean actor to take an important role?â
ââŠâŠWhat is the population of Korea?â
âTen times than this.â
ââŠâŠThatâs great.â
Redborn 2 is just been released for a week.
It surpassed 5 million viewers.
***
Park Sung-won turned on the television.
He was going to watch his favorite entertainment program, but ads were playing.
âIs this a new movie?â
A man running hard on the black screen came out.
He keeps looking back, covered with scars. The actorâs name popped up at the bottom of the screen.
Lee Ji-seok.
âOh, Lee Ji-seok. If Lee Ji-seok plays the lead role, itâs going to be a big hitâŠ.â
The fleeing man arrived in a village.
Crows crowed and a big wooden gate opened.
Thud!
Itâs closed. And suddenly the screen turned black.
The tense music stopped at the same time.
Park Sung-won felt a subtle sense of deja vu on the suddenly turned offscreen.
Jingle!
âHuh?â
They heard a bell.
Park Sung-won sat slowly in front of the television screen without taking his eyes off from it.
Jingle!
On the television, a shaman was performing an exorcism.
Park Sung-won didnât even know his mouth was now open wide.
Jingle!
Then a human shadow appeared on the table.
[Child.]
The shadow moved.
The screen changed and a burning letter appeared.
[The devil, big release in early August!]
Now, Park Sung-won was staring blankly at the television screen until several commercials came next and his favorite program started.
Title: (Redborn 2 Spoiler) Is that true?
Written by: Marine fan
Should I give a spoiler for Redborn 2?
If you havenât seen the trailer of âThe Devil,â please watch it on YouTube.
First of all, there are two possibilities
The devil plagiarized.Marine Corporation approved it.
If itâs plagiarism, the devil spirit production company will be in trouble. I donât need to say more.
This is the United States, the country where they took seriously of such act.
And, if Marine Corporation gave them permissionâŠâŠ.
Lee Seojun!!!
I think itâs Lee Seojun.
Shadowman = Evil Shadow = Seojun
Thatâs why Marine gave him permission!
Wow. I got hit in the back twice this week.
If Lee Seojun appears in the devil, William, on the Shadowman will automatically be his.
I sent an e-mail to Marine, and he said they got permission! WowâŠâŠ.WowâŠâŠ.
-A big promotion by Marine and the DevilâŠâŠ.GoosebumpsâŠâŠ.
-Really, it isnât plagiarism or anythingâŠ!?
-Wow. Iâll go watch the devil make sure itâs really Lee Seojun.
Itâs been two days since the trailer of the evil spirit was released. South Korea is once again on fire as âLee Seojunâ trended.
[What is the next movie of Korean Hollywood child actor Lee Seojun?]
[What kind of movie will Lee Seojun appear next?]
[What kind of actor is Lee Seojun in Hollywood?]
[Lee Seojun is in Korea right now? Or in America?]
â I think we can call him a real Hollywood star.
-Oh, my God. Isnât Lee Seojun 6 years old now?
â 5 years and 5 months old in American age.
A YouTuber uploaded a video. He shrugged and laughed as if he was crazy.
âLee Seojun did a perfect job. I didnât even imagine it. Hollywood movie, and Marineâs movie series! And now he is shooting a Korean movie. Iâm really looking forward to what kind of actor he was going to be.â
-Youâre wrong about him acting after a few years.
-Seojun: America? Korea? I can do both.
Then in early August, the devil was released.
Again, Park Sung-won, who did not miss the first screening on the first day, entered the movie theater.
âItâs probably Lee Seojun, right?â
â100 percent Lee Seojun.â
Listening to peopleâs chatter and looking at the devilâs pamphlet, there was no picture or name of Lee Seojun.
There were only pictures of tables, bells, and shadows in the preview.
âIf you want to watch the Devil, please enter the 9th hall!â
Park Sung-won sat down in accordance with the guidance of the employees.
Soon, the fire went out and a fiery letter appeared on the screen.
The Devil.
One day, Su-hyuk, who works at an antique shop, gets a jewelry box that looks expensive.
He was going to clean it up and sell it, but it was a mistake..
The evil spirit from the jewelry box clung to Su-hyuk.
The evil spirit caused all kinds of trouble on Su-hyukâs body.
It was a minor accident at first, but soon the antique shop was set on fire.
Su-hyuk traveled from churches to cathedrals, temples, and other places to fight off evil spirits, but all those who helped him were put in danger.
The pastor, who was being carried by ambulance, gave a piece of paper to Su-hyuk.
Su-hyuk set off with the determination to end his life if he couldnât find a solution.
Following the address from the piece of paper, Su-hyuk arrived in the village.
There he saw a little boy in hanbok.
A child with an indifferent expression looked at him with a creepy look and closed the door.
Not long after, his grandfather led him inside a room.
The next day, the grandfather wanted to take a walk with Su-hyuk. During their walk, he brought up a story about the little boy.
The seven-year-old boy lost his parents to a devil when he was four. At the same day, a God possessed his body.
From then on he had lived these past three years without crying, laughing, or speaking. The grandfather still took care of the childâs life even though he isnât his family biologically.
Su-hyuk saw a little boy standing in front of the West Part of the village, staring blankly at the tree.
The little shaman was the same age as the nephew of Su-hyuk. Unlike his troublesome nephew, the little shaman was like a living puppet without any emotions.
âThe evil spirit covets the childâs body.â
Su-hyukâs face hardened at the grandfatherâs words.
He tried to get out of town.
That little boy is too young to be sacrificed for him.
A fight broke out between the evil spirit and him because the evil spirit wanted to stay in the village while Su-hyuk wanted to escape the village.
In the end, Su-hyuk lost.
Late at night, the evil spirits stormed into the little boyâs house. The little kid seemed to be waiting for it. Su-hyuk tried to fight the evil spirit residing inside him.
The night was full of screams.
Su-hyuk opened his eyes wide.
The grandfather was nursing him next to his side and laughed.
âWhy donât you come with me and meet him?â
âYou mean to meet him?â
âYeah.â
Somehow, he walked along with the grandfather toward the yard.
Itâs already been a week since Su-hyuk collapsed.
The grandfather took care of him because he was hurt not by her body but by his soul, he was sure that he would not be able to treat in a normal hospital.
âIâm very grateful to him.â
âWhat?â
The grandfather smiled and opened the big wooden gate. ThereâŠ
âHi, Su-hyukâ.
A kid wearing a yellow kindergarten uniform and carrying a backpack stood smiling brightly.
Su-hyuk looked at the little boy and grandfather with a puzzled face.
âWeâve eradicated the evil spirit, and the inner god has used up all his strength. God is not bad, but he put a lot of pressure on the child. Now this child will live a normal life, laughing and crying like any other child. He was now able to attend kindergarten. Itâs all thanks to you.â
âNo⊠You shouldnât take me.â
When he saw the little boy holding his hand with a bright smile.
The scene of a little shaman who cried all night in order to fight off evil spirits was now nowhere to be seen.
Su-hyuk kneeled down and made eye contact with the little boy.
âLittle boy, whatâs your name?â
The child smiled brightly at Su-hyukâs question.

Title: Just a feeling. I am really excited.
Written by: Evil spirit.
Honestly, at first, I was wondering if it was really Lee Seojun, but I think Iâll watch the movie a few more times.
His acting as William was so impressive that I never imagined Lee Seojun acting in other roles, but I feel like a fool.
Lee Ji-seokâs acting was amazing, but Lee Seojunâs acting as a shaman was more amazing.
If Lee Ji-seokâs acting is like a double character + alpha, then Lee Seojunâs acting feels like thereâs something inside.
When Lee Seojun looked up and down Su-hyeok, I got goosebumps thinking he seeing through me.
And after Lee Seojun came out, Lee Ji-seok and the movie became crazy.
Lee Seojun seemed to have a god with a lot of power.
Lee Ji-seok seemed to be possessed by a real evil spirit and fought with evil spirits. The direction and the CG matched is comparable with the foreign movies, it looked very real.
I had so much fun. I didnât expect it at all.
The mood of the movie has changed since Lee Seojun came out.
Before Lee Seojun came out, itâs like they were still in the human world but after he appeared it feels like it was now in the realm of the gods. Thatâs what it feels like.
CG was the best when they fought. I want to make it into a gif later.
And the staff automatically revealed the secrets after the movie was released. They posted on SNS and the Internet in unison.
Photos taken with Seojun in casual clothes and Seojunâs autographed paper were all posted.
