Just as he needed.
[Pity Party! Gain the audience's sympathy. The host is granted an aura that exudes the need for pity.]
As June dissected the script last night, he realized that Jian and Yian were from opposite sides?of the spectrum.
Yian coped by going against the norms. Meanwhile, Jian stuck to his norms despite all of the adversities that happened in his life.
With this in mind, June knew that his character had more potential to be liked than Yian...
...and that's exactly what he wanted.
He wanted to be more likable than Lin Zhi's character. Only then will he become indispensable to the production team.
At first glance, it may seem like Jian is just another cannon fodder who does nothing but obey the tyrant's orders. However, June wanted to portray him as someone who was forced to stay within his norms—not because he wanted to but because that was how life was for him.
Pity.
That was what he needed.
And fortunately, Fu came through to give him just what he wanted.
Oh, and his face would definitely do some of the work, too.
Risa paid close attention to what was happening. She felt quite guilty because deep inside her mind, she knew that she was unsure of Jian's character. Sure, she wrote him as a way to show that Yian had a loyal confidant and that he wasn't all alone in this world. However, based on how she wrote Jian, his personality was vague...almost bland...only there to amplify the villain's story.
So, she was curious about how June was going to spice him up.
June's gaze was directed at the script; however, when he lifted his head to look at
Taehyun in the eyes, a small gasp escaped from Risa's lips.
Taehyun, too, felt a surge of guilt inside his mind. It almost felt like he didn't want to confront June with how pitiful he looked.
It seemed like there was a white halo surrounding June, making those watching him feel like they were looking into the eyes of an innocent child.
"My brother is all I have," he finally said, his voice strong yet trembling at the same time.
Hana looked down at the table and shook her head.
"It's a shame that he doesn't get many lines," she muttered.
However, she also couldn't help but think that June devoured those few lines.
"So, uh, when are we going to start the next scene?" June asked, finally breaking the silence in the room.
Director Bong, who was fascinated for a moment, pursed his lips when he realized that June was indeed a great actor. However, even then, his pride shone through.
"Don't interrupt the reading," he scolded, causing June to raise his arms in surrender.
The reading continued up until the ending, yet the scene with June still left the most impact.
Taehyun, too, found himself enjoying that particular scene the most.
"That's a wrap for now," Director Jam said once Taehyun said his last words.
Risa's and June's eyes met for a second, so the writer quickly showed him a thumbs up before directing her gaze to the directors once again.
"First of all, I want to thank Director Bong for choosing such talented actors for this movie," Director Jam said.
"There are still some awkward moments here and there, especially during the villainous parts," he continued, glancing at Lin Zhi.
Lin Zhi pursed his lips while June wore a subtle smirk.
"But, with more time and proper practice, we'll be able to work with it, I guess."
"And for Jian," he said, looking June in the eyes.
However, the director got lost in June's orbs for a second. He had to pinch his thigh to look away! At one point, it felt like his eyes were familiar...or maybe his eyes were truly just beautiful and expressive.
Well, at that point, the 'Pity Party' booster was still ongoing, so those that looked into June's eyes were sucked into his charm.
"From what I have seen," Director Jam continued.
"You're the perfect fit for Jian."
