Seojun sat in front of the piano.

The lights in the living room that the art team had worked hard to create went out, and beyond the darkened living room window, a light that was bright enough to resemble moonlight but trying to create a strange atmosphere shone through.

In an instant, the set became a night filled with emotion.

‘Lee Jae-ha’ was also intoxicated by that emotion.

“Ready, action!”

As filming began, Seo-jun, who was sitting in front of the piano, played the role of Lee Jae-ha. He put both hands on the piano keys and prepared to tap the air with his fingers in time.

At the same time, the assistant director turned on the speaker. The piano melody that Seojun had recorded in advance for this shoot began to flow out.

–!

Lee Jae-ha’s fingers began to move to the melody.

It seemed that he had calculated thoroughly the time before the piano performance began, as there was not a single inch of error in the timing of the first key press.

‘As expected from Seojun!’

Director Kim Soo-han laughed out loud without saying a word.

I don’t know much about playing the piano, but I’m sure Seojun was playing it delicately, without any of the notes being muffled.

The camera captured Seojun, no, Jaeha Lee, like that.

It was similar to the scene where Lee Jae-ha and Choi Dong-hyun first met.

If there’s anything else, it’s the atmosphere.

‘Lee Jae-ha now knows that he is a dead person.’

Seojun tried to express that atmosphere.

Not the vitality of a living person, but the strangeness of a dead person.

That sense of incongruity was something I had also expressed slightly when I was acting as Lee Jae-ha, who didn’t know that he was dead, before filming the twist. It’s like salt, which is put in a small amount but makes up a big part of the dish.

So, if you watch the first part again after learning about Lee Jae-ha’s true identity, you will be able to feel the vitality that takes up most of it and the faint sense of incongruity between them.

Now it’s the opposite.

It was time to express the mood of a dead person.

[(Line) Baradike’s Guidance (lowest level) is activated.]

[(선)바디케의 인다-LOWEST]

A blue firefly that guides the dead to the afterlife.

Very rarely, the dead can show you something they desperately want to see.

Just as there is a story in ‘this world’ that you can see someone you desperately want to meet when you die, there was a similar story in the world of past lives.

Of course, that was the ability of the blue firefly named Baradike.

Seojun used this ability to show the image of ‘Lee Jaeha’ that he had imagined.

Of course, it was only at the lowest level of ability, so it was only at the level of a faint atmosphere, but for actor Lee Seo-jun, that alone was enough.

—.

Director Kim Soo-han and Han Jun-seo, who were watching the monitor, were amazed at the sight of Seo-jun, or rather, Lee Jae-ha, sitting in front of the piano and playing the piano.

‘You did a great job!’

The two people who were watching with satisfaction soon blinked and took their eyes off the monitor to look at Seojun on the set. For some reason, it felt like Seojun’s appearance had become blurry.

‘It’s clearly right in front of my eyes… … .’

Perhaps because of its faint presence, it felt like smoke that could disappear at any moment if the wind blew. In addition, the unique, strange atmosphere combined with it really made ‘Lee Jae-ha’ look like a ghost.

—.

There was even a beautiful performance filled with regret.

Dark night.

A ghost playing the piano under the moonlight.

The sight felt like a vision from a dream, and I was truly entranced.

“… … Cut!”

Director Kim Soo-han, who had been absent-mindedly looking back and forth between the monitor and the set, quickly came to his senses and shouted “cut.” At the same time, the staff members also came to their senses as if they were waking up from a fantasy.

“… … Wow. I thought it was Holly.”

“therefore.”

“Isn’t this proof? That actor Lee Seo-jun is not human.”

Everyone laughed at the staff’s words, but soon nodded with serious faces. It seemed like it was true.

“Huh? But it’s not an okay cut?”

“? Really?”

The staff, who were unconsciously preparing for the next shoot, stopped walking when they saw the two actors, the director, and the cinematographer gathered in front of the monitor.

“Why? You did so well.”

It was a problem because I was so good.

“Weren’t you taking a full shot?”

Seojun tilted his head after checking the footage.

This shoot was supposed to be a full-shot, but the monitor showed a video that gradually zoomed in on Seo-jun while shooting a full-shot.

“No, that’s right. I didn’t realize it, but I thought I couldn’t miss it, so I took a close-up.”

“It’s an occupational disease. An occupational disease.”

Director Kim Soo-han smiled brightly at the cinematographer’s excuse that wasn’t an excuse.

Even the cinematographer, who had watched many videos and filmed it himself, was captivated by the scene.

It was worth the effort to prepare with the art team. Seojun’s wonderful and shining appearance had to be utilized for everyone’s sake.

“But this also seems natural, so I think it’s okay?”

“I think so too.”

Seojun also smiled and nodded at Han Junseo’s words.

Maybe it was because the cinematographer had his own personal interests in mind, but it turned out really well for a sudden close-up.

“I think so too, but it has to match the other scenes. Too much isn’t good either.”

The assistant director quietly exclaimed in admiration at the sight of director Kim Soo-han speaking with a careful expression.

“I thought you just said okay all the time… … .”

Director Kim Soo-han, who loved filming Seo-jun and Han Jun-seo, expected me to immediately say okay this time as well, but it was really director-like of him to think about the entire film and make a cool-headed judgment.

“This kind of appearance is truly worthy of a director.”

“I’m a director, right?!”

Ahem.

Director Kim Soo-han said, coughing in vain.

“Let’s reshoot this scene. We’ll decide what to use when editing.”

When Seo-Jun nodded, the cinematographer made an apologetic expression.

“I’m sorry, Seojun.”

“No, it’s okay. It’s actually good. It means that it was a great scene.”

Seo-jun, who was delighted by such compliments, smiled brightly, and the cinematographer, who had unintentionally made an NG, also smiled as if relieved.

“Let’s film again!”

As reshoots began, Seo-jun became Lee Jae-ha again and sat down in front of the piano.

Under the quiet moonlight.

The performance that captivated the crowd began once again.

***

“Ready, action!”

The next morning.

Lee Jae-ha asked Choi Dong-hyun, who was preparing breakfast for two but was actually serving one.

“Then this kimchi… … belongs to the landlord’s family, bro?”

“Yes. You took all your luggage, but it seems like there were some things you forgot to bring.”

It would have been difficult to pack thick blankets, winter clothes, rice, kimchi, etc.

“I ate it because you told me I could.”

Please, just exorcise me.

It was Choi Dong-hyun who swallowed the words that were spoken.

“It was delicious. The lady’s cooking skills seem really good… … Huh? How did I taste it?”

Choi Dong-hyun answered Lee Jae-ha, who tilted his head.

“I prayed while you weren’t looking. It’s the same principle as offering a sacrifice.”

Sometimes, they would give food to ghosts who were hungry for rice.

“Wow. That really works.”

Jaeha Lee was amazed when he learned the new fact.

Choi Dong-hyun, who smiled faintly at that, placed a bowl of rice in front of Lee Jae-ha.

“But, Dong-hyun hyung.”

Lee Jae-ha said while looking at the well-cooked rice.

“You don’t have to feed me from now on. I don’t have to eat anyway. It’ll just create more food waste.”

That’s true, but the person who didn’t give me food when it was right in front of me wasn’t Korean.

Aren’t we a people who leave ancestral rites food on the roadside for passing ghosts to eat, who make carts for animals to eat, and who leave fruits for magpies to eat?

Besides, food was the most important thing at the daycare.

“Okay. Just eat it.”

“but…….”

“I’ll reduce the amount next time. Will that be okay?”

When Lee Jae-ha, who had been rolling his eyes for a moment, nodded, Choi Dong-hyun smiled slightly and put his hands together in prayer. Nothing seemed to have changed on the outside, but now Lee Jae-ha was able to eat.

“it is delicious!”

Choi Dong-hyun ended up laughing at Lee Jae-ha’s extremely happy expression, despite him having just said he wouldn’t eat.

***

Choi Dong-hyun was cleaning up after finishing breakfast.

Lee Jae-ha looked at his watch.

“Huh? Bro, it’s past time for you to contact me, but I haven’t heard from you?”

“liaison?”

“You came here every day, right? Around this time.”

Isn’t that Choi Dong-hyun who always goes into the main room and answers the phone?

Come to think of it, I didn’t get any call last night either.

“Come to think of it, you’re not wearing wireless earphones either?”

Choi Dong-hyun, who was taking off his rubber gloves and organizing them, let out a sigh as he looked at Lee Jae-ha’s puzzled face.

“It was… …because of you.”

“Is it because of me? Oh, is it because the work is over?”

Now that you’ve left this house, is it because work is over and you’re not getting any calls?

Choi Dong-hyun sighed and continued speaking to Lee Jae-ha, who asked with an innocent face.

“No. So… … have you ever heard of being possessed by a ghost?”

“Yes. I’ve heard of it.”

……wait for a sec.

Are you possessed by a ghost?

When Lee Jae-ha opened his eyes wide and looked at Choi Dong-hyun, Choi Dong-hyun nodded with a bitter smile.

“Yes, you. I needed to prepare for the fact that we would be spending time together without knowing what kind of ghost you were. The phone calls that came at the right time were alarms. I thought that if I continued talking to you for too long, there might be problems.”

When Lee Jae-ha noticed that, he couldn’t tell how surprised he was. He thought his heart, which had been beating so well, had stopped and fallen to the floor.

“Fortunately, he was able to get away with it, but I thought he was a serious guy.”

Lee Jae-ha opened his mouth wide at Choi Dong-hyun’s unexpected story.

I just thought you were busy, I couldn’t imagine that it was an alarm and that it was for that reason.

‘Come to think of it… … .’

Lee Jae-ha thought of another one.

The songs that Choi Dong-hyun listened to continuously with wireless earphones, literally for 24 hours straight from the time he opened his eyes until he fell asleep. And the story of the composer who composed those songs.

“… … So you listened to Bach’s music.”

Bach.

German composer and church musician.

Pianist Lee Jae-ha, who had been a devout believer of the church for generations, was well aware that Bach’s music was full of faith and religious beliefs, and that understanding the music and the composer was part of his daily life.

“that’s right.”

Choi Dong-hyun nodded in agreement to Lee Jae-ha’s words.

“I don’t know if you know, but Bach’s music is often used in exorcisms. It also often appears in exorcism movies.”

So, whenever Choi Dong-hyun went to do exorcisms, he would listen to Bach’s music to avoid being possessed by ghosts. So far, it has been quite effective.

Choi Dong-hyun, who was continuing to speak, touched Lee Jae-ha’s chin and cheek as he quietly looked at him.

“Why? What did you ask?”

“No. It’s just… … I thought you were more afraid of me than I thought. I had a lot of fun during that time.”

At the moment when Choi Dong-hyun was trying to comfort Lee Jae-ha, whose voice was slightly bitter, Lee Jae-ha smiled brightly.

“But I’m so glad that you trust me now!”

Choi Dong-hyun’s ears felt very comfortable without wireless earphones.

Choi Dong-hyun also laughed along with him.

“Well, that’s right. Now I think I know a little bit about what kind of person, or rather, ghost, you are.”

Lee Jae-ha looked delighted at Choi Dong-hyun’s words that at least he knew that he wasn’t a ghost who would do bad things. He didn’t know that gaining someone’s trust would make him this happy.

“And I said that because it didn’t seem to be effective.”

Choi Dong-hyun continued speaking in a slightly playful voice.

“? why?”

“You played it. Bach. You, a ghost.”

… … Aah!

Lee Jae-ha, who had played on the street, opened his eyes wide.

Choi Dong-hyun, who had been speaking playfully, soon spoke as if he was truly lamenting.

“It’s the music used in exorcisms, but you, a ghost, are playing it. Do you think I should keep listening to it?”

“ha ha ha.”

Choi Dong-hyun sighed at Lee Jae-ha, who smiled awkwardly.

“I was really surprised… … .”

A ghost playing an exorcism song.

And playing that in front of the exorcist again and saying, ‘Isn’t that your favorite song?’

Even thinking about it now, I still get goosebumps and the feeling of dread comes to my eyes.
