Chapter 129



Chapter 129

MBSs needle was very sharp, bursting all the balloons that were floating in the air.

The special broadcast that lasted only an hour had an enormous viewership and a terrifying impact.

The people who were happy about the nomination realized the reality.

[Three black actors, one Asian actor! Golden Globe nominees!]

[Just three years ago, at the Oscars. A black actor who was a strong candidate for Best Actor, failed to make it to the final list!]

[The nomination and winning rates of Asian actors, who are worse off than black actors!]

[The Golden Globes and the Oscars are their parties!]

-Thats harsh. Its amazing that Seo-jun made it to the list

-There was a time when only white people were nominated for two consecutive years

-This is Theres nothing to say.

-Its really an American award.

-I knew there was some discrimination, but I didnt know it was this bad.

[Golden Globes and Oscars] poured cold water on the expectations of the people. MBS was worried about the ratings of the Golden Globe ceremony, considering the money they spent on buying the broadcasting rights.

The next day, after the broadcast, the PD of [Golden Globes and Oscars] arrived at work and wrote down some words on a white paper.

The writer who handed him a warm coffee also sat next to him.

Shouldwe

Are you writing already? Well, the mood upstairs is not good.

I hope this is the end of it. Think about how much money we spent on this.

Sighing, the PD continued to write.

And a few hours later.

It was time for the Golden Globe ceremony. 

Fortunately for MBS and the PD, most of the viewers switched to MBS channel.

-We have to watch it anyway, even if he only made it to the list.

-Yeah, it doesnt matter if he doesnt win. It must have been hard to get there.

-But hell win the music award, right? We should congratulate him.

-He played the violin too!

-Hes my Best Actor in my heart! If they dont give it to him, Ill give it to him! Anyone who wants to make a Lee Seo-jun trophy!(1/9,999)

=Please give me your account number(2/9,999)

=If you need a design, please message me(3/9,999)

***

The fans who had already started making trophies didnt know if Seo-jun knew or not, but he waved his hand to his mom and dad in a neat suit.

As with the WTV Film Festival, mom and dad decided to leave first.

The people in the mansion who knew about the commotion in Korea looked at the family with sad eyes. Seo-eun-hye and Lee Min-joon hugged Seo-jun with a smile.

Did you have fun filming?

Yeah! It was so much fun.

When will you film again? Youre not taking a break for another year, are you?

Seo-jun laughed at his parents words.

I like winning awards too, but acting is a hundred times better. So dont worry.

The couple hugged their son again. 

Nara Kim and Anh Da Ho watched the family with a warm smile, but felt a pang in their hearts. 

They smelled something from somewhere. A sweet scent calmed their minds.

Well, well go ahead then.

Okay! Be careful!

Seo-jun waved his hand as he left with Aunt Nara. Soon, a car prepared by Whale Studio arrived. Anh Da Ho and Seo-jun got in the car.

Hi, Jun!

Hi! Catherine, Paul!

Catherine and Paul, who were waiting in the car, greeted him warmly. 

It had been months since filming ended. They were more happy to see him after a long time.

Catherine and Paul both looked very nervous, but they seemed to relax a bit when they saw Seo-jun. 

[(Line)Apple blossom scent that calms you down-intermediate level] flowed from Seo-juns wrist and filled the car.

Ive never been to an award ceremony before! Have you been here before, Jun?

This is my first time here too. The only award ceremonies Ive attended were just two.

The important thing is that you won both of the two award ceremonies you attended!

Seo-juns eyes widened at Pauls words. 

One was the WTV Film Festival and the other was the KBC Acting Awards.

How did you know about the Korean awards?

Theres nothing thats not on YouTube.

Yeah. I saw it too! Oh, you also filmed a talk show this time!

I saw that too!

As the kids chatted, the car headed for the red carpet.

Soon, the car door opened in front of the red carpet. 

The sound of calling the actors names was heard everywhere.

The three child actors who had been nervous in front of the flashing lights waved their hands and responded.

Jun! Congratulations on your nomination!

Thank you!

A reporter with a microphone approached Seo-jun and the kids.

Do you have anything to say to the fans who are watching the broadcast right now?

I hope I can give you some good news!

[Actor Lee Seo-jun on the red carpet!]

[Catherine, Paul, Jun. The three friends are all together!]

[Actor Lee Seo-jun, Im happy to be nominated!]

[What Lee Seo-jun wants to say to his fans!]

-Seo-jun on the red carpet!!

-Hes awesome. Lee Seo-jun!

-T_T Im happy just to be nominated! Its okay if he doesnt win!

=222 Lets get all the awards we didnt get here in Korea!

At 6 p.m. local time in LA, 11 a.m. in Korea.

The Golden Globe ceremony began.

MBS, which had won the broadcasting rights for the Golden Globes, was true to its article that it had prepared perfectly, and put up translated subtitles right away. The people put aside everything else and watched the television. 

The articles were also uploaded right away.

[Over the Rainbow, Music Award, Theme Song Award, Film Award!]

[Over the Rainbow, Director Sara Roth, Director Award!]

[Over the Rainbow, a total of four awards so far!]

Every time an award was announced, cheers erupted. 

Seo-jun and the kids also clapped every time Over the Rainbow won an award.

Congratulations, director!

Thank you!

The long and long ceremony finally came to an end. 

Now there was only one award left.

The people who were watching on television unknowingly clasped their hands. 

They all remembered [Golden Globes and Oscars] from last night, but they couldnt let go of their thin hope.

[Golden Globes, only one award left: Best Actor!]

-I know he wont win, but Im nervous.

-Really I feel like Ill be disappointed without knowing it. But this disappointment is not directed at Seo-jun. Never.

-Lets give them a hard candy to the Golden Globes who didnt recognize Seo-jun. Pumpkin candy.

= Ill buy ginger candy.

=I have rice candy too.

Mom and dad who were in the audience clasped their hands tightly and prayed.

Seo-eun-hye and Lee Min-joon didnt care if Seo-jun won or not. 

He was still their proud and lovely son.

They wished he could only see and enjoy good things, but the world he wanted to live in was too wide and rough.

Of course, they knew enough that Seo-jun would recover even if he had a hard time.

But still

They hoped that the hardship would come a little later.

Everyones eyes were on the MC who was standing on the stage.

The Golden Globe for Best Actor goes to!

The MC shouted loudly.

The screen behind the MC showed the nominated actors.

Various works and various actors, among them Gray with his chin on the violin and his eyes lightly closed stood out.

-Ah, it feels like Gray is going to win No, its amazing that he made it to the list.

-Thats not wrong. Its Seo-jun Lee who wins with his role as Gray! No, he did well just by being nominated.

Half expectation, half not wanting to burden him. The comments grew longer as people had mixed feelings.

Thump.

Thump.

Paul and Catherine held Seo-juns hand tightly. Seo-jun held their hands firmly as they were more nervous than him.

Seo-juns black eyes were directed at the trophy on the stage.

Seo-jun was okay even if he didnt win. 

The WTV Film Festival award was the first award he received in both his first and current life, so he was so happy that he almost got swept away by his first lifes emotions. 

He was happy. 

And he was happy when he received the rookie award from KBC.

The slowly filling satisfaction gave Seo-jun confidence in his future.

Im doing well. 

I can win more awards in the future.

As he thought so, he felt more relaxed. 

He still wanted to win more awards, but his thoughts changed little by little.

He cared more about peoples reactions than awards. 

The evaluation of the movie Over the Rainbow was enough. 

The fans admiration and cheers shone more than awards. 

So Seo-jun was okay even if he didnt win this time.

But it seemed that other people were not. 

He felt their worries and feelings who were upset: mom and dad, family, friends, fans.

I dont like being judged by factors other than acting and work.

But no matter how much he thought about it, there was nothing Seo-jun could do right now. 

After thinking carefully, there was only one solution.

Seo-jun made up his mind. 

Next time, in another work, he would show them an acting that could easily crush any discrimination. 

He would act using more of his abilities than now.

The tens, hundreds, thousands of monsters who chased their prey once they set their goal, glittered their eyes and growled. 

The books in the library seemed to be restless, as if they wanted him to use their abilities.

When will the next library door open?

He wished he could handle the intermediate, upper-intermediate, and advanced abilities soon.

As Seo-jun and the monsters of his previous life were laughing and strengthening their will.

The MC shouted loudly.

Over the Rainbow, Seo-jun Lee!

A moment of silence,

And a huge cheer!

Wow!

Along with the cheers that filled the ceremony hall, the camera caught Seo-juns face.

?

The monster who was sharpening his fangs and building up his will was confused by the unexpected situation.

Huh? I thought he wouldnt win?

As the sound of applause poured in, Seo-jun heard Catherine and Pauls voices in his ears.

Jun! Congratulations!

I knew you would win, Jun!

He looked to the side and saw Catherine and Paul, who were sitting next to him, clapping hard. 

Director Sara Roth and the production team also sent enthusiastic applause.

Ah. 

Then Seo-jun understood. 

His head was still stunned, but his heart was pounding with joy.

He got up slowly from his seat amid the huge cheers and applause for him.

***

So this part is

It was math class right after lunchtime, when everyone was sleepy. 

They all looked at the blackboard with half-closed eyes. 

The teachers voice sounded like a lullaby.

Then, the kid who sat in the back row jumped up. 

The chair made a loud noise as he got up, drawing the attention of the half-asleep kids and the teacher who was explaining earnestly.

Aaaaaah!!!

The kid who got up screamed. 

Kyaaah!! 

A scream was heard from the next class too. 

What, what is it? 

The kids who were startled by the sudden situation looked at their friend. 

The kid who got up showed them his phone.

Hey! Lee Seo-jun won an award! Teacher! Lee Seo-jun won an award!

He did!? He did!?

Did he really win? I thought he wouldnt!

What!? He won?! Wait, this kid didnt turn in his phone!?

People who were secretly watching the Golden Globe ceremony on their phones also got up without knowing it and shouted. 

Cheers were heard from schools, workplaces, buses.

The news of Seo-juns win spread on radio and television broadcasts.

[Actor Lee Seo-jun, Golden Globe, Best Actor Award!]

[Actor Lee Seo-jun, youngest Best Actor winner at the Golden Globes!]

-Uaaaaah!!

-I knew it!! Can I be happy now!? Lee Seo-jun is the best!!!

-T_T Im crying T_T

-I thought he would win from before!

-Of course our Seo-jun is the best!

-They have to admit his acting skills!!

The joy was greater because they didnt expect it. 

Some people teared up at Seo-juns shining figure amid discrimination.

Those who couldnt watch the ceremony because they were sorry for Seo-jun quickly turned on their TVs and switched to MBS as they saw the articles and reactions online. 

They were lucky to see Seo-jun on stage.

It was not clear whether it was background music from the Golden Globe ceremony or from MBS, but Over the Rainbow, Part 4 played.

A melody of hope shining after despair.

The name that the fans shouted was Brilliant.

Seo-jun smiled brightly as he matched the melody perfectly with his brilliant expression.

He held the Golden Globe trophy in his hand and stood in front of the microphone.

I thought I wouldnt win

The monster who had lost his will collapsed as he felt the weight of the heavy trophy. 

The books in the library also quieted down. 

Seo-jun looked ahead with a deflated spirit.

He saw his mom and dad, Aunt Nara, Brother Da-ho who were clapping hard. 

They all had tears in their eyes because they didnt expect it.

Maybe it wasnt just mom and dad. 

His friends and fans who were watching on TV. 

Many people who cheered for him.

They must have been worried.

And they must be very happy now. 

As he thought so, Seo-jun smiled brightly. 

He wanted to show them a bright and happy face.

Well, Im a bit flustered but Im happy. I thought I wouldnt mind if I didnt win, but it feels good to actually win. Hehe.

Seo-juns face appeared on the big screen. 

His cheeks were flushed red and his expression sparkled brightly and happily.

Hello. Im Lee Seo-jun.

Seo-jun Lees first words of acceptance speech were in Korean, just like at the WTV Film Festival.

The Asian actor who won the youngest Best Actor award at the Golden Globe ceremony opened his mouth.
