Superstar From Age 0

Chapter 240

Thanks to the re-release of the series, it had gained a new audience who were too young to watch it 10 years ago.

-I didnt know it was so fun when I was young! XD

-Me too. I couldnt watch it when I was 8!

-It was really good to see it in the theater.

As time passed, the revenue of Shadowman 3 became more evident, and Marine sighed with regret.

On the other hand, there was a place where people were cheering.

There are so many people!

There are a lot of foreigners too.

Imiyeon and Park Seong-ah looked around with surprised faces. Gwanghwamun Square, Gwanghwamun Gate, and Gyeongbokgung Palace were crowded with people.

The nearby restaurants and convenience stores were also full of customers, and the food trucks that opened for a while were also bustling with customers.

The internet was also buzzing with the promotional effect of Shadowman 3, but it was even more amazing to see it in person.

Can we see everything today?

Imiyeon looked around with bored eyes.

Hey! A spaceship!

Park Seong-ah pointed with her finger and spoke, and Imiyeon and the people around them looked in that direction.

Wow!

As Park Seong-ah said, there was a spaceship there.

A big building right next to Gwanghwamun Square.

Just like in Shadowman 3, where a spaceship crashed into the building, Natras spaceship was printed on the window. 

Even the broken glass window looked exactly like the movie, and people were taking pictures with admiration.

Theres one over there too!

There were pictures of spaceships everywhere, just like in the movie.

Seong-ah. Look at this!

Imiyeon found something and gestured to Park Seong-ah.

What Imiyeon had found was a shaped structure. 

It was a long structure that followed Gwanghwamun Square on the right and left. 

The people inside were all looking up at the sky.

If you take a picture from below like this, it looks exactly like the movie!

Park Seong-ah also looked up like Imiyeon.

Wow!

The ceiling was made of transparent plastic roof, and there were small black spaceships stuck on it like stickers. 

They looked like glow-in-the-dark stars on the ceiling.

And since the transparent plastic ceiling reflected the blue sky, they could see the blue sky and white clouds flowing between the black spaceships.

It looked like Natras spaceships were floating in the sky.

Some of them are attacking here. Theres even smoke?

The spaceships stuck on the ceiling were not all the same.

Jin Natras spaceship, Bel Natras spaceship, soldiers spaceships and spaceships being attacked, Natras warships and more. 

They varied in type and condition.

As they walked slowly looking at the sky, it looked like spaceships were attacking each other in the sky above them.

Park Seong-ah and Imiyeon found Jin Natra and Bel Natras spaceships and quickly took out their phone cameras.

The end of the structure was King Sejongs statue. 

Next to King Sejongs statue was a smaller model of a spaceship that crashed into it like in the movie. 

The broken surroundings seemed to be made of models as well.

Although it was smaller than the movie, there were many people taking pictures in front of the similar scenery.

Lets take a picture too!

After taking some pictures, they headed to Gyeongbokgung Palace. 

There were many people here too. 

They lined up at the ticket office to buy tickets.

Oh. Its William.

Huh?

Park Seong-ah turned her head quickly at Imiyeons words. 

William, Lee Seo-jun? But it wasnt him.

Its a bear doll.

Thats right. William.

Imiyeon laughed. 

Park Seong-ah looked at the bear doll that was moving away with a regretful face.

But someone bought it. I couldnt buy it because it was sold out

Theyre selling all over the world. Williams sweater and sneakers are also selling like crazy.

They chatted for a while and then the long line got shorter. 

They bought tickets and entered inside, where there were many people taking pictures everywhere.

Shall we take some too?

Imiyeon and Park Seong-ah took out their prepared photos from their bags.

A photo of a spaceship crashed into Gyeonghoeru Pond, a photo of a spaceship fallen into a soju bar, a photo of a wormhole in the sky above Geunjeongjeon and Jin Natra and the wormhole generator below, a photo of the wall that collapsed when Jin Natra hit it, and so on.

They were photos captured from the released Korean footage.

The strange thing was that they were all cut in half vertically or horizontally.

Lets start with Geunjeongjeon.

Okay.

Imiyeon, who had a camera, held up a photo of Geunjeongjeon and the wormhole that was cut vertically and headed towards the real Geunjeongjeon. The camera screen showed both Geunjeongjeon and the photo.

I think we need to go back a little. The size doesnt match.

Park Seong-ah carefully pulled Imiyeon back. 

After walking a few steps, Geunjeongjeon, which was bigger than the photo, became smaller and changed to the same size as the photo. 

They smiled at the perfect fit of the photo and the scenery.

They filmed it here!

Hurry up and take a picture.

At Park Seong-ahs urging, Imiyeon matched the Geunjeongjeon in the photo with the one behind it like a puzzle. 

She made sure that the roof edge and the stairs on the floor were not misaligned, and snapped a picture.

The left side of the photo was Geunjeongjeon in reality, and the right side was Geunjeongjeon with the wormhole generator and Jin Natra standing next to it, and a wormhole floating in the sky.

They were glad they had captured a scene where Jin Natra was standing on the left. 

They looked at the photo of the shooting site with shining eyes.

Lets go take pictures somewhere else!

Yeah!

-Im going to take some too!

-But there are not many scenes I can capture because of copyright.

-People are also taking pictures in France and Central Park. (link)

-You can also take pictures like this. Its so nice that they filmed in Korea.

=But I want to go to France and Central Park too. LOL

-There are so many tourists in Gwanghwamun Square and Gyeongbokgung Palace.

=22 The Seoul City also allowed food trucks there.

=The blue barbecue food truck is delicious.

=Thx thx

-You didnt fly here right after watching the movie, did you?

=Maybe you came here while you were in Korea?

=Anyway, Gwanghwamun Square and Gyeongbokgung Palace are awesome lol

=I want the sweater. But it was sold out, so I bought a similar one.

=I can wear it in winter!

-Shadowman 3 is no joke haha

[Marinsa, Shadowman 3 making film will be uploaded at 8 p.m. today!]

[Shadowman 3 making film, from bloopers to cookie videos!]

-Ahhh! Making film! It must be so fun.

-I saw the bloopers, but there are cookie videos too!

-I was curious how they filmed the cookie videos!

=22 They couldnt make it with just CG.

***

Wow! Its up.

8 p.m.

Seo-jun and his parents sat in front of the television. 

They had connected the television to YouTube in advance, and a title that said [Making film of Shadowman 3] appeared on the screen.

-Its starting!

Not only Seo-jun and his parents, but everyone who liked the Shadowman series watched the making film on their laptops and phones. 

Even those who couldnt get home watched the making film on buses and subways.

The already released blooper scenes passed by and showed the set where they filmed Shadowman. Everyone marveled at the elaborate underground temple, Natra palace, spaceship, and Geunjeongjeon sets.

-Copy+paste. The Geunjeongjeon is exactly the same.

-They really made all this.

-Hollywood scale

They wondered what the green chroma key ball placed on the central altar of the ancient temple was. Then they briefly showed the scene of Seo-jun acting without CG and the video after CG work.

-Was that the timestone? That green ball?!

-He acted like that with that?

-Hes really immersed.

They also showed the scenes of Seo-jun and other actors reading scripts and waving their hands at the camera, and the staffs focusing on filming.

They also showed the rehearsal of stuntmen flying from Jin Natras attack.

And then,

The screen turned black with a caption that said [9 years ago].

-Oooo!

-Finally, is it coming?!

Seo Eun Hye, who was eating a melon, sparkled her eyes.

9 years ago means when Seo-jun filmed Shadowman 2, right?

Yeah. He did additional filming then.

The day when Ryan Will, Evan Block, Rachel Hill, and Melissa Walton gathered and filmed after all the filming of Shadowman 2 was over. It was such a secret filming that only a few staffs participated.

Thats what the actors and staffs took turns filming.

Really?

Seo Eun Hyes eyes turned to the television as she heard Lee Min Joons words.

Seo-jun and Evan Block appeared on the screen full of 7-year-old Seo-jun, and Rachel Hills playful voice was heard from the camera side.

Jun. You know this filming is a secret, right?

I know!

The 7-year-old Seo-jun in the screen sparkled his eyes and smiled brightly. Seeing her cute sons face for a long time, Seo Eun Hye smiled unknowingly.

That expression is that, right? The expression of being happy because there is a new filming even though its over.

Is my face that easy to read?

Seo-jun rubbed his cheeks with his palms a few times and nodded his head.

Yeah. I was really happy.

You havent changed much from then to now.

Seo-jun and his parents laughed.

Meanwhile, Seo-juns fans were pounding the floor with their fists as they saw Seo-juns chubby cheeks at age 7. 

They thought they could see 7-year-old Seo-jun, but he was cuter than expected.

-7-year-old Seo-jun! So cute!!

-This is my grave!

-Marinsa, thank you for leaving this video! Thank you. Overwhelming thank you!

They showed Seo-jun and two actors sitting at a table eating sandwiches and juice with a camera fixed somewhere. The fans groaned again at the sight of Seo-jun eating yum yum as if it was delicious.

Who do you think will play Tull Natra?

Hmm. Who do you want to play him, Jun?

Swallen Annie!

Without any hesitation, Seo-jun sparkled his eyes and answered, and Evan Block and Rachel Hill burst into laughter.

-Oh. So thats why Swallen Annie became him?

-Its not just because of Seo-jun, but Im glad it turned out the way he wanted!

-Seo-jun is so cute!

Melissa Walton, who played Williams mother, also appeared and greeted Seo-jun and the two actors. 

Seo-jun, Evan Block, and Melissa Walton talked and went to change their clothes.

The first to appear was Seo-jun, who wore sneakers without heels and became shorter than Jin Natra in Shadowman 2. 

He wore a sweater and pants that he wore in Shadowman 3 and sneakers. 

Everyone clenched their mouths at the sight of Seo-jun who came out wearing sneakers.

-Did they really decide the ending from then on?!

-They kept quiet for 9 years The staffs are amazing.

-Ryan, the director who made this plan, is amazing too.

Soon, Evan Block appeared in Macs disguise.

Youve gotten smaller. Jin Natra was this big.

Im William now!

Evan Block in Macs disguise and Seo-jun in Williams disguise talked and laughed. 

Rachel Hill also joined them and laughed.

-Uh. It looks like Shadowman, Bel Natra, and William.

-This kind of threesome!

-They all have to be happy!

The making film of Shadowman 3 ended with a warm scene of three actors. Comments quickly increased on the black screen.

-No! Show me more!

-Show me more cute Seo-jun!

As if they heard the wishes of the viewers, the screen lit up.

Seo-jun appeared in the camera angle as if he had finished filming and changed his clothes. 

He tilted his head at the camera facing him, and his appearance was clearly shown.

Soon, Rachel Hills playful voice was heard.

Jun. Do you have anything to say to the future viewers?

Seo-jun blinked his eyes at Rachel Hills question and smiled bashfully. 

His fans grabbed their hearts at his sparkling aura.

I hope you enjoyed Shadowman 3.

Anything else?

Seo-jun thought for a moment at Rachel Hills question, rolled his eyes shyly, blushed his cheeks, smiled and said softly.

Uh I wonder if Im doing a lot of activities.

The 16-year-old Seo-jun who saw the 7-year-old Seo-jun on the screen smiled brightly.

I was curious if I would be active as an actor in the future because I only filmed Shadowman 1, Evil Spirit, and Shadowman 2 at that time.

Even if I want to, I cant do it if there is no suitable role.

Besides, Seo-jun received his first award, heard the word superstar, and had a fan meeting after Shadowman 2 was released.

The young Seo-jun in the making film had not experienced it yet.

Dont worry.

The 16-year-old Seo-jun looked at the trophy rack decorated in one corner of the living room. 

He felt proud of himself as he saw the glittering trophies and smiled softly.

Im doing well.

Seo Eun Hye and Lee Min Joon also looked at the young Seo-jun and the grown-up Seo-jun alternately and smiled warmly.

And I hope you enjoy my other works too if I film them!

The 7-year-old Seo-jun clenched his fists and spoke with sparkling eyes, and Seo-juns fans choked up and shed tears.

- Youre doing a lot of filming!

-We wish you did more

-Youre getting awards and doing well.

-He probably didnt even think about the Oscar at that time.

=22 He didnt know he would become a superstar then.

-Our Seo-jun is so great He grew up so well!
