Superstar From Age 0

[February, the Academy Awards ceremony is coming!]

[LA time 5 pm, Korea time 10 am!]

[Monday morning 10 am, watch the Academy Awards on OCM!]

[The world media, optimistic about actor Lee Seo-juns win!]

-Monday morning 10 am (note)

-If I check the time, I should be able to watch it during lunch!

-Wow! I have to see this!

-One day left!

-Only three hours left until the start, but OCM already started broadcasting lol

-Its 7 am right now haha

-? Why is Moviegoer here?

[Hello, viewers. The day weve been waiting for has arrived. Im Park Young-jin, the host of the Academy Awards ceremony.]

[Im Yang Si-eun, a film critic.]

[Im Moviegoer, a YouTuber.]

The faces of the MCs filled the phone screen.

Park Young-jin and Yang Si-eun, who had been commenting on the Academy Awards ceremony last year and the year before, seemed to feel a pleasant tension, but there was a man who was silently shouting Where am I?, Who am I?.

He was Moviegoer, a YouTuber.

Three hours before the ceremony started, Seo-jun was getting his hair done and watching the Korean broadcast of the Academy Awards on his phone.

On the right side of the screen, a small screen showing the entrance of the Academy Awards venue, which had not even started the red carpet yet, was empty, but the audio of the three people talking filled the screen.

[Moviegoer here is the first traveler of Gray Vineys world tour. He was on the news several times. Of course, there may be other people who are really first travelers, but recorded as the first traveler in the world is Moviegoer.]

[I knew about the secret of the ticket, but I never imagined a world tour.]

Moviegoer smiled awkwardly at Park Young-jin and Yang Si-euns words.

He was used to live and recorded broadcasts as a YouTuber, but this kind of filming felt unfamiliar.

There were more cameras than he expected and the lights were hot.

[This year, for the first time, a Korean actor was nominated. The world media says that actor Lee Seo-jun has a high chance of winning. Do you two think so too?]

[Yes.]

[Yes.]

Without a moments hesitation, Yang Si-eun and Moviegoer nodded their heads at Park Young-jins question.

He tilted his head at their firmness.

[Why?]

[If all the nominees except actor Lee Seo-jun were white, he would have had a low chance of winning. It means that there is a thought of race in the minds of the voters. Then there would be fewer votes for actor Lee Seo-jun.]

[The fact that the nominees are so diverse means that the thought of race in the minds of the voters has faded a bit. This year, more than ever, it might be a fair ceremony.]

Yang Si-eun and Moviegoer answered in perfect harmony with their love for movies.

[If its a fair ceremony, does that mean actor Lee Seo-jun has a high chance of winning?]

[Over The Rainbow changed the world travel trend. Of course, it might not have happened without the marketing of commemorative tickets. But it all started with Gray Viney. If another actor had played Gray Viney, would we have collected world tour commemorative tickets? No. We saw Gray Viney played by actor Lee Seo-jun, were moved by him, cried and rejoiced.]

Moviegoers words made Yang Si-eun nod her head and open her mouth.

[Yes, thats right. The standard of acting is different for everyone. But there is one thing that everyone agrees on. This role is for this actor. The atmosphere, acting skills, and naturalness that no other actor can replace are what it is. Gray Viney was a role that only actor Lee Seo-jun could play. I cant think of a single actor who could replace him. That alone is enough to qualify him for an award.]

Seo-jun smiled faintly at Yang Si-eun and Moviegoers praise.

Their predictions were not much different from most predictions.

The world media had been buzzing about it.

It was easier and faster to conclude than winning the Golden Globe or being nominated for an Academy Award. Seo-jun Lees win was almost certain.

Seo-jun finished his preparations and sat on the sofa, waiting for his car while watching the broadcast and drinking tea prepared by Whale Studio.

He was planning to go with Catherine and Paul, just like the Golden Globe.

[Can you introduce actress Jessica Kim, who is Korean-American?]

[Actress Jessica Kim debuted in an American drama. From a small role to].

The broadcast continued. Park Young-jin asked questions and Yang Si-eun and Moviegoer answered in turn.

Seo-jun. The car is here.

Yes!

Seo-jun got up at Anda-hos words.

He got into the empty car.

Now it was time to stop by where Catherine and Paul were and pick them up.

[The Academy nominees are more similar to my thoughts than the Golden Globe nominees. Ive never had this before.]

[Thats evidence that things have changed a lot.]

[But they say that this year might be the first and last time for this kind of miracle.]

Park Young-jins words made both of them agree.

The world media also had a lot of reviews that this miracle was the first and last time this year.

The Korean media was no different.

[But if actor Lee Seo-jun continues to act, there will be another day like this. A day like this once, twice, three times. Then there will probably be a huge change.]

The viewers who were watching the television also nodded their heads at Moviegoers words.

As the three of them were talking, reporters and fans began to appear around the empty red carpet.

In the midst of the noise, the first actor appeared on the red carpet.

[Its Jessica Kim!]

At Park Young-jins words, Yang Si-eun and Moviegoer, and the viewers eyes turned to that place.

The small screen showing the red carpet became larger.

Jessica Kim, wearing a beautiful blue dress, looked awkward in the pouring flash, but did not lose her bright smile.

A sincere smile that showed how happy she was, made the viewers who were watching on television smile warmly.

Yang Si-eun and Moviegoer enthusiastically continued their explanation.

[Jessica Kim was nominated for the Best Supporting Actress award at this years Academy Awards. She played a supporting role in the movie Last and impressed the audience with her acting skills.]

[The YouTube video was very touching too!]

The commentary continued as each actor appeared on the red carpet.

From this years movies to the famous ones they starred in before.

The two movie buffs explained the stories and behind-the-scenes in an easy and fun way.

Time flew by as they talked.

Then, as an actor appeared on the red carpet, a loud cheer erupted from the fans, along with a dazzling flash of cameras.

[Milan Chellen! Its actor Milan Chellen!]

[His story is really heartbreaking. I thought he would be nominated and win the award three years ago. Thats when I felt the ruthlessness of the Academy! So I didnt expect anything this time! But to see him walking on the red carpet like this!]

[He also showed a great performance in the movie that was released this year!]

With a cool smile, Milan Chellen walked with heavy steps.

With each step, he felt his resentment from three years ago, his joy from now, and all his emotions being sucked into the red carpet.

The reporters, the fans, and the cameras all looked at the most attention-grabbing actor, Milan Chellen.

Congratulations on your nomination, Mr. Chellen!

Thank you.

Your thoughts on

It was then. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

A scream erupted from the end of the red carpet.

It was the fans scream that appeared whenever an actor showed up, but it was unusually loud.

Milan Chellen and the reporter who was interviewing him, and the cameras turned to that direction.

The viewers who were watching the screen, Park Young-jin and Yang Si-eun, and the moviegoers all had curious expressions on their faces.

[Whats going on?]

[Huh? Jun? Is that Jun?!]

[Seo-jun? Actor Seo-jun?!]

[Did actor Seo-jun come!?]

The three people jumped up from their seats.

Milan Chellen was an actor they had been waiting for, but who could compare to this actor!

They got up early in the morning to prepare for the broadcast, and started broadcasting at 7 a.m. when the sun hadnt risen yet.

It was all to see this actor.

The viewers who were watching the broadcast, and the three people who were hosting it, all looked at the wide-open black car.

Ahhhh!!

With a cheer, Lee Seo-jun, Catherine Miller, and Paul Oden got out of the car.

Milan Chellen blinked his eyes.

He had looked up information about the Academy after being nominated.

He could easily tell that there was a change in the Academy because of the medias buzz.

Lee Seo-jun and his global advertisement.

Like a butterflys small wing flap turning into a huge storm, Lee Seo-juns existence, acting, and movies had an impact whether big or small.

Milan Chellen looked down at where he was standing.

It was the red carpet of the Academy he had dreamed of.

He smiled faintly and moved his steps.

He greeted the fans who were cheering for him and spent some time taking pictures with them while waiting for the interview of the previous actor.

In front of Seo-jun and his kids who were waiting for their turn, Milan Chellen appeared.

Seo-jun and his kids widened their eyes.

Our previous turn was Milan Chellen!

Seo-jun knew well about Milan Chellens story because of the medias buzz. He smiled brightly and greeted the actor who finally stood on the red carpet.

Hello. I enjoyed watching The Circle.

I also watched your movie well.

Everyone held their breath at Lee Seo-jun and Milan Chellens conversation.

Only flashes of light popped occasionally. Catherine and Paul exchanged greetings with Milan Chellen and stepped back slightly. Seo-jun noticed their consideration and smiled.

Do you want to go together?

Id love that.

The Asian actor who was nominated for Best Actor, Lee Seo-jun, and the black actor Milan Chellen walked together on the red carpet.

They took pictures together and did interviews together. The reporters didnt miss a single moment or breath. The large camera lenses focused on the two actors.

[This! Isnt this a very meaningful scene?!]

[To see this at the Academy!]

Not only Korean broadcasts but also broadcasts around the world paid attention to their appearance.

In an instant, photos of them on the red carpet were uploaded, articles were posted, and reactions came.

Thank you.

Huh?

As they entered into the awards hall, Seo-jun tilted his head at Milan Chellens words.

Milan Chellen smiled. The change in the Academy Awards.

He didnt know how much of it was influenced by Lee Seo-jun.

But even if it was as small as a chicks tear, he wanted to say thank you.

It was nice to meet you today.

Me too! I hope we can act together someday!

Im looking forward to that day.

Milan Chellen and Seo-jun said goodbye and headed to their seats.

As he headed to his seat, Seo-jun saw an actor who was waving his arms vigorously.

He couldnt scream because it was noisy, but he had a bright face and was waving his arms.

He caught his eye.

Huh?

He tilted his head and checked the identity of the actor.

Hello!

Hello! Actor Seo-jun!

It was Jessica Kim.

Her face was flushed and she looked at Seo-jun.

He felt her joy from her whole body.

He was glad to hear Korean.

He heard she was a Korean-American, but she spoke Korean very well.

He thought it would be hard to move in a dress, so he headed towards Jessica Kim.

Her face brightened as Seo-jun approached.

Congratulations on your nomination!

Congratulations to you too, actor Seo-jun! I hope you win the award!

The cameras that were watching Seo-juns movements captured the scene of Seo-jun and Jessica Kim shaking hands with bright smiles.

[Lee Seo-jun and Jessica Kim greeting each other at the Academy Awards!]

[This is the first time! Two Asian actors who are nominated!]

[Korean language heard at the Academy Awards!]

-Wow!! Amazing Seo-jun and Jessica Kim met!

-And they are both nominated!!

-Oh my god. I never thought I would see this scene.

[This is really amazing, isnt it? Milan Chellen and Jessica Kim, they met all the hot topics! I never imagined hearing Korean at the Academy. Oh, its time!]

[Yes. All the actors have taken their seats.]

[The Academy Awards will begin soon. Please stay tuned!]

At 10 a.m. in Korean time. And at 5 p.m. in LA time.

The long-awaited Academy Awards began.
