An Actor Who Has Lived For 10,000 Years [EN]: Chapter 313

313 #57 – Ten Million Actor (1)

So many audience members right before my eyes.

Many fans waved placards with my name on them and chanted my name.

“Jin Hee-sung, Jin Hee-sung!”

With that sound and a smile, I suddenly felt a throbbing headache.

The faces of the fans before me were blurring.

“Uh… uh?”

My vision blurred, and I felt like my eyes were spinning.

Were they tilting before me, or was my body tilting…?

At that moment.

“Ugh…!”

Holding my throbbing head, my heavy body was about to collapse helplessly to the side.

Thud-

“Hee-sung!”

The supporting actor next to me grabbed my arm tightly and pulled me up.

“Are you okay?”

His grip on my arm was so strong, and his loud voice echoed loudly in my ear as my spinning vision fully returned.

I shook my head vigorously and stood in place.

“Ah… I’m sorry.”

He waved his hand at my words and replied.

“No, it’s okay. Are you feeling unwell?”

“I think I just lost my balance for a moment. Thank you.”

This appearance of mine was fully conveyed to the fans, and they shouted when they saw me almost fall.

“Oppa [term for older brother or male friend used by females], are you okay?”

“Are you alright?”

To their worried shouts, I quickly put on a smile and opened my mouth.

“Yes, I think I just missed a step.”

At that moment.

A fan’s voice burst out from the crowd and echoed loudly in the movie theater.

“Make sure our Hee-sung oppa takes care of his health!”

Her tremendous shout made the fans at the scene, as well as the general audience, the director next to me, and the actors burst into laughter.

Director Park brought the microphone he was holding to his mouth and replied.

“Haha, yes, I will definitely pass it on to Hee-sung’s manager.”

At his words, I smiled and said.

“I’m sorry for causing concern. Continuing on with our movie….”

I continued the story of the unfinished work.

Several tens of minutes later.

Director Park and the actors came down from the stage.

As soon as they came backstage, they all approached me and opened their mouths with concern.

“Hee-sung, are you okay?”

“That’s right. Hee-sung, are you really okay?”

At their questions, I shook my arm with a gesture as if I was fine and replied.

“Of course. I was just a little dizzy, maybe it was anemia.”

Even at my words, Director Park spoke to me with a deeply furrowed brow.

“You should rest well after the project is over. Have you been very busy?”

“No. I think I rested too hard. Haha.”

I replied to him playfully, and he grabbed my arm with a straight face.

“Hee-sung, you have to work with me for a long time in the future. Take good care of your health.”

“I understand, Director.”

“Yes. You have to take care of your health when you’re young. When you get old, health is more important than money.”

I nodded at his words, but it didn’t resonate much.

Because I have lived for 10,000 years… no, I am destined to live for another 10,000 years.

Ordinary people take care of their health to live a long life.

Soon, everyone boarded the bus together.

The bus was moving to the next movie theater for the movie stage greeting.

A large bus with the movie ‘Undercover’ poster on it.

Inside the bus were some staff members, as well as me, Director Park, and the actors.

During the short time to the next movie theater, the topic of conversation mainly revolved around ‘health’.

The conversation started with me staggering on stage a little while ago.

Director Park looked at the actors and opened his mouth.

“The job of an actor is to take care of meals, sleep, and rest irregularly. Take good care of your health.”

At his words, we shouted as if in unison.

“Yes!”

“Don’t just say it. You’ll regret it when you get older, everyone. Look at me. When I get to this age, there’s no place that doesn’t hurt.”

At his words, I smiled and replied.

“Hey, Director, you keep talking about your age even though you’re still young?”

At my words, the actors burst into laughter.

“That’s right. It’s too early for the director to talk about his age.”

“No. Once you all start passing 40… your body starts sending signals one by one.”

Then he reached out and pointed at me and shouted.

“Hee-sung, make sure you get a health checkup before going into the next project.”

“Haha, I understand. I will work with the director healthily for a long time!”

At my words, Director Park smiled contentedly and nodded.

* * *

After all the schedules were over.

“You’ve worked hard.”

“Everyone worked hard. Let’s see each other at the premiere tomorrow.”

We came out of the movie theater and returned to our respective cars, and one car was waiting for me in the parking lot.

“Hee-sung, you’ve worked hard.”

Manager Park greeted me and asked.

“But are you really okay?”

At his words, I nodded.

“Yes, I just staggered for a moment, but I heard there was even an article about it?”

“Of course. I received a lot of calls to the company asking to take care of Hee-sung’s health.”

“Wow… really?”

Inside the running car.

Manager Park glanced at me through the rearview mirror and said.

“Yes, CEO Kim told me to check Hee-sung’s condition while handling the schedule. If you’re tired while doing the schedule, please tell me without overdoing it.”

“I will.”

“You must be tired from going around for stage greetings for a long time today, so I’ll wake you up when we arrive. Get some sleep.”

“Thank you.”

He lowered the radio sound that was playing in the car, and I turned my head and stared blankly out the running window.

‘Is this the life of a celebrity?’

It wasn’t like I collapsed on stage, but I was surprised that I was written about in an article just for staggering for a moment.

In addition, I couldn’t help but be surprised at the fact that fans had contacted the company.

I smiled wryly as I felt my position anew at that time.

Although it was belated, ‘health checkup’ came to my mind.

I had never thought about health at all until now.

Anyway, a new life would begin when I died, and even if that wasn’t the case, my life was only 10 years.

Because when 10 years passed, that life would end and a new 10-year life would be given.

The period of living 10 years as one person’s life was not a very long time.

Because 10 years passed in an instant when I adapted to that life, worked hard, and lived.

So I don’t think I’ve ever thought about health, or even tried to think about it.

But now I have to live as ‘Jin Hee-sung’ until I die.

After that, I will be reincarnated for another 10,000 years.

I don’t know if the 10-year life will be repeated at that time, but.

Anyway, I have to live for 10,000 years, so I wouldn’t care about my health, but now I kept worrying about my health.

During the last fan meeting.

Even in that moment when I was stabbed with a knife and went back and forth between life and death in the hospital, I struggled not to die.

Because if I die in Jin Hee-sung’s body, this life is over.

‘Okay, let’s take care of my health.’

I bit my lip and nodded.

It wasn’t like I had any pain.

I had a constant headache, but I didn’t pay much attention to it because it was because of the memories of 10,000 years.

Then, suddenly, a question flashed through my mind.

It was Song Yu-na’s memory.

That day when I collapsed in front of her and had a dream.

I had a dream that was so different from the dreams I had had so far.

The dreams I had had so far were of my past that I had lived in the past 10,000 years.

Those pasts were stored in my memory, and my head throbbed with the vast memories.

So I was living with all the memories of 10,000 years.

However, in that long time, I had never lived Song Yu-na’s life in the past… not even once.

The doctor, nurse, and manager I saw in Song Yu-na’s past.

I had never lived their lives at that time either.

“How the hell… did I know that and dream about it?”

Holding my throbbing head again, I racked my brain to solve the question.

“Hee-sung, are you okay?”

At that time, Manager Park, who saw me, asked me with concern.

“Ah, yes. I’m okay.”

Health checkup wasn’t the problem.

Anyway, the reason my head hurts is because of the memories.

The fact that Song Yu-na’s past came to mind among those memories, I thought I should find out about that first.

Because that had never happened before.

In the dark.

Jin Hee-sung’s face filled the screen.

The person who was looking at that figure with her hands together was Park Soon-hee.

She watched the movie ‘Undercover’ as soon as it was released, and the next day, she went to the movie theater again.

When Jin Hee-sung appeared on the screen, Park Soon-hee covered her mouth with her hand.

“Wow… he’s so handsome.”

-I’ll catch him.

Jin Hee-sung shouted with strength in his eyes, and muttered with a gaze as if he was staring at the camera.

-To catch a tiger… you have to go into the tiger’s den. I’ll go in and directly… arrest the tiger.

Jin Hee-sung’s words stirred the movie theater.

“Wow… he’s cool.”

“Wow, that’s crazy.”

People were holding back their laughter at the voices of the audience that burst out in the middle, watching the movie.

The audience, immersed in the movie, became quiet as a mouse, focusing on the screen.

-Ugh… I can’t get caught here…. If I get caught being a cop now… it’s over….

Jin Hee-sung reluctantly inhaled the drug, then staggered and walked into the room with difficulty.

There, he was acting as if he couldn’t control his body because the drug had spread throughout his body.

When his gestures, expressions, and eyes were reflected on the screen to the audience, exclamations burst out from all over the audience.

“That’s crazy….”

“Wow, what’s with the acting.”

“It’s really creepy.”

People couldn’t help but burst out with their admiration.

Park Soon-hee was unknowingly smiling contentedly when she heard their voices.

Two hours later.

Flicker-

When the movie ended, the dark place was lit up.

And the ending credits that slowly started to rise.

Park Soon-hee was sitting in her seat, unable to escape from the fresh shock of Jin Hee-sung’s acting and the movie, even though it was a movie she was watching again.

“It feels even newer after watching it twice.”

She exclaimed and stared blankly at the ending credits.

As the ending credits ended, the staff entered the movie theater for cleaning.

At that sight, Park Soon-hee came to her senses and got up from her seat.

Only then did she see the many people in her eyes.

“What, there are so many people who stayed until the end like me?”

Park Soon-hee looked around at the people sitting in more than half of the seats with a surprised face.

They also got up from their seats and poured out conversations about the movie.

“Hey, this movie is really crazy.”

“Yeah. It’s awesome. No, what’s with Jin Hee-sung’s acting?”

“I know. The acting when he was high on drugs in the middle, is that acting?”

“Wow… how does he do that acting?”

“That’s why he’s an actor.”

The movie theater that came out with people.

Even in the same elevator, the story about the movie did not stop.

“The movie is going to be a hit.”

“Isn’t the story crazy?”

“Yeah. But it would have been a disaster if Jin Hee-sung hadn’t played the lead role.”

“Why? Because he’s a perfect fit?”

“Yeah, it would have been really weird if another actor had done that acting.”

“That’s right. Jin Hee-sung’s acting is awesome.”

Park Soon-hee raised the corners of her mouth at the evaluation of the movie and Jin Hee-sung and came out of the movie theater.

Then she looked at the poster of the movie ‘Undercover’ attached in front of the movie theater and muttered.

“Hee-sung oppa, this movie… it’s not just going to be a hit, is it?”
