Superstar From Age 0

Chapter 170

Im a third-year student in the music department of Yeoul Arts Middle School.

I wanted to go to Yeoul Arts Middle School because it has good facilities and support, but since middle school is compulsory education, they cant charge tuition fees, so there are not many arts middle schools (arts high school tuition is expensive)

So the competition is fierce, and my rivals are the best of the best in the country (the first and second place winners of the concours also applied) I wont tell you my grades.

Honestly, I didnt care much about Lee Seo-juns admission because it was a story of the acting department. I thought he would go somewhere

Two years ago, in October.

The premiere! Over the Rainbow!

Professor Benjamin Morton, Jason Moore, and a Stradivarius! I think Ive seen this movie 10 times!

I was amazed by Professor Benjamin Mortons music, the violin performance, the Stradivarius, and then, really, I almost fainted when I heard that Lee Seo-jun played it. (Hes better than me)

So I became interested in him. Lee Seo-jun seems to do well even if he changes his major to violin

Anyway, today was the entrance ceremony It seemed like all the parents of the first-year students came. (My mom and dad asked me why they couldnt go as parents of current students. They are both fans of Lee Seo-jun, so of course they couldnt)

I tried to find him among the first-year students in the auditorium, but I didnt see him. So I was talking to my friend that it was strange,

On the stage, ta-da!

He was the representative of the new students.

He came out wearing our school uniform I didnt know our school uniform looked so classy. I thought Lee Seo-jun bought a uniform that was made by artisans stitch by stitch. (By the way, our school has a group purchase)

He made such a cool appearance, walked up to the stage, bowed to the principal (really, everything was classy) opened the oath of admission, and it was like watching a speech at an international organization.

It was bright everywhere, but I thought only Lee Seo-jun had a spotlight on him. He was shining alone.

His voice was so good that when he said oath it was quiet as a mouse I wished the oath of admission was longer for the first time

Thats how the entrance ceremony ended.

The conclusion is,

Lee Seo-jun is in our school!!

-?? The entrance ceremony ended with a freshman representative oath?

= : There was more after that but I forgot. Today my memory is only about Lee Seo-juns oath.

= I understand

-Isnt Yeoul Arts Middle School uniform pretty? I heard the material is good too.

= : Its good, but Lee Seo-juns uniform looked better. It looked like a luxury suit rather than a uniform.

-Im in the art department and Im drawing Lee Seo-jun His drama and movie are amazing too, but he himself is shocking. Hes handsome. He has a different vibe He really shone by himself

= : Just one picture.

=Just one picture

=

[Title: A story I heard from a friend who is in the same class as Lee Seo-jun]

I heard from a friend who is in the same class as Lee Seo-jun that he is really amazing.

Yeoul Arts Middle School has 36 audition videos (excluding Lee Seo-juns) and he said he watched them all.

Its a two-minute video, so you might think its not a big deal but the problem is that he remembered all of them. He got at least 19 people in his class right

+He also got right what drama and what role they played.

-Wow. Thats how you succeed.

-I would watch one or two at most during vacation

=22 Its hard to watch them all. And he remembers them too, amazing!

-Its different from elementary school. Stories like this come up too.

=Well, it would be strange if they didnt. I dont know about other child actors, but Lee Seo-jun level would be known for every move.

-Doesnt he do anything at school?

=Even if they take measures, it will spread quickly.

I looked through the reviews of the entrance ceremony and the articles that came up everywhere.

[Actor Lee Seo-jun, admitted to Yeoul Arts Middle School!]

[Lee Seo-jun, the representative of the new students at Yeoul Arts Middle School!]

[Lee Seo-jun in a school uniform, now a middle school student!]

[See the photos of Yeoul Arts Middle School entrance ceremony!]

The entrance ceremony was yesterday, but there were still articles today. There were a lot of comments too. Not only in Korea, but also overseas fans congratulated Seo-jun on his admission.

Team 2s work will increase.

They must be checking all the sightings of Seo-jun, looking for rumors, correcting irrelevant articles right now.

There wont be any big trouble.

Seo-jun had been fine without any trouble for six years in elementary school. 

Anh Da Ho thought that middle school would be better since there were more people than elementary school. But he still planned to do everything he could.

Anh Da Ho put down his phone and said to Seo-jun.

I told you to be careful at school, but its hard to stop it completely. But if nothing special happens, there wont be much reaction.

Right?

Seo-jun nodded at Anh Da Hos words.

He showed his skills yesterday because it was the first meeting, but he didnt plan to use any mana in normal times. 

If he did that, the other kids would treat Seo-jun not as a celebrity, but as a friend, just like in elementary school.

But it wont be as easy as the friends I got used to for six years. Hmm. Should I engrave my ability on the school building?

Yeoul Arts Middle School was big because it had good facilities. 

He couldnt cover it all, so he had to engrave his ability only on the places where the first-year students often go.

That way I can supply mana too.

Seo-jun searched his memory for a book that had such an ability. 

Unless it was a suitable ability with the title (Creation), he couldnt engrave it on the wall even if it wasnt a top-notch ability.

I need to find it in the new library

He wondered how long it would take to find the right ability, and it seemed far away.

I need a search a search function.

Why didnt his previous lives, who were great magicians, archangels, and archdemons with great abilities, create a search function? 

Seo-jun made a sad face and blamed his previous lives that he didnt even remember.

Seo-jun! Lets change clothes!

Yes!

Seo-jun stopped thinking and got up from his seat at the staffs call. 

He left the future to the future Seo-jun and decided to enjoy the shooting now.

He got up from his seat with excitement and Anh Da Ho thought of something.

I wonder if Seo-jun will hit puberty?

These days, there are many kids who go through puberty in high grades of elementary school, but Seo-jun seemed to have not hit puberty yet.

Anh Da Ho sat on a chair and looked at Seo-jun who was getting makeup done and searched puberty on his phone.

The period of storm and stress, physical changes, emotional changes, cognitive changes, egocentrism, etc. 

Terms that seemed familiar popped up.

I guess the most important thing is emotion?

Irritability, rebellion, friends, quarrels, growth.

Seo-jun being irritable, rebellious, quarreling

It was hard to imagine for Anh Da Ho who had only seen the bright Seo-jun. But he thought he should think of some ways to deal with it with Seo-juns parents.

Seo-jun, who had experienced countless reincarnations and destroyed worlds, was reading the script of Lulu Lala without knowing Ahn Da-hos worries. 

He had gone through the stormy times of his previous lives.

***

As the weather cleared up, the outdoor shootings that had been postponed were resumed. 

Today, they were going to film the coronation ceremonies of Danjong and Sejo. 

Both ceremonies took place in Geunjeongjeon, so they decided to shoot them on the same day.

The first scene to be filmed was Danjongs coronation ceremony.

Ready, action!

The ceremony began outside the empty hall where Munjongs body was laid.

The officials and relatives in mourning clothes, and Lee Hong-wi, who had taken off his mourning clothes and put on the royal ceremonial robe, bowed to Munjongs body.

The ritual officer who offered incense said,

Prostrate, rise, stand up.

Lee Hong-wi followed his words and prostrated, then stood up and bowed. 

The relatives of the same clan as Grand Prince Suyang and officials like Kim Jong-seo also bowed like that.

The funeral-like ceremony ended and they moved to Geunjeongjeon for the real coronation ceremony.

Just like Sejongs coronation ceremony when he was a royal physician, the civil and military officials and relatives lined up in rows in the courtyard of Geunjeongjeon.

Ascend to the throne.

The ritual officer said with a bow.

Lee Hong-wi looked at the throne that his grandfather and father had ascended with a dark face. 

He wanted to back away from the pressure that was different from Pyeonjeon, but he endured it.

He felt the gaze of the civil and military officials behind him and climbed up the stairs. 

He was becoming a real king now.

Grandfather, father, mother. Please help me.

He prayed earnestly as he moved his feet. 

He put a prayer in each step, a fear in each step, and slowly moved forward.

The beads on the crown he wore on his head clinked as he moved. 

He reached the top and exhaled, then turned his body to look down at the courtyard of Geunjeongjeon.

Thump.

His heart dropped to the floor at the pressure of the civil and military officials he saw. 

The pressure from above was beyond his imagination. 

He felt like he couldnt breathe.

He moved his stiff legs and sat on the throne.

He straightened his back and placed his trembling hands on his knees. 

Lee Hong-wi knew well. 

This was not a place where he could shrink because he was young. 

He recalled his grandfather and fathers dignity and fixed his expression.

[(Pre) The Wings of the Fallen King of Jo-in Clan are activated.]

Seo-jun didnt use much pre-abilities. Not yet. Lee Hong-wi at this moment was just Lee Hong-wi who followed Sejong and Munjongs appearance.

[[(Pre) The Wings of the Fallen King of Jo-in Clan Intermediate] temporarily lowers its rank.]

[(Pre) The Wings of the Fallen King of Jo-in Clan (Low) are activated.]

It was possible to adjust the rank temporarily after becoming able to use intermediate abilities.

Until now, when he activated his abilities, they didnt work if he had less mana than needed, but after opening the door to the intermediate library, he could adjust the rank of his abilities according to the amount of mana.

Of course, I cant raise it, but this is something.

Small wings like sparrow wings sprouted from Seo-juns back and fluttered. 

The kings spirit that flowed like a breeze along with the wings wrapped around Seo-jun.

A faint kings spirit flowed out from Lee Hong-wi who sat on the throne. 

The spirit spread to Geunjeongjeon with the wind.

The actor who played Tongchan was the first to feel that thin dignity.

Salute!!

The relatives and civil and military officials placed their left hand over their right hand and clasped their hands together on their forehead. 

And they shouted in unison as they did three years ago at the young kings coronation ceremony.

Long live!

Again, Tongchan shouted.

Salute!!!

There was a storm of blood, and the young Sangwang was still in the palace. 

The officials who were gathered here guessed what would happen next.

They called it Jeongnan, a loyalist of rebellion.

The rebels who defied heaven smiled at the sky.

The loyalists who lost their king to rebellion closed their mouths and lowered their heads.

Long live the King!!

A loud shout echoed through the set.

Cut, okay!

There were many people to shoot, so he thought there would be one or two NGs, but it ended in one go. 

There were still close-up shots and bust shots left, but they seemed to be over soon. 

Director Woo Jung-han, who was estimating the shooting time, asked the assistant director.

Tell the costume team to prepare Sejos ceremonial robe.

Yes! I got it!

The assistant director ran to where the costume team was, feeling like he would get off work early today.

***

Ready, action!

Grand Prince Suyang, wearing a ceremonial robe, got off the palanquin and walked briskly toward the throne.

Unlike Lee Hong-wi, who moved slowly with a trembling heart, he walked with no fear at all.

His steps showed his will to lead Joseon in the future and his satisfaction with finally taking this place.

Everyone held their breath at Grand Prince Suyangs atmosphere, which was opposite to Danjongs. 

Seo-jun silently applauded Lee Ji-seok for his great acting.

As Grand Prince Suyang sat on the throne, Tongchan shouted.

Salute!!

The relatives and civil and military officials placed their left hand over their right hand and clasped their hands together on their forehead. And they shouted like they did at Danjongs coronation ceremony.

Long live!

Again, Tongchan shouted.

Salute!!!

There was a bloodbath, and the young king was still in the palace. 

The officials who were here knew what would happen next.

They called them Jeongnan, the loyalists of rebellion.

The rebels who defied heaven looked at the sky and smiled.

The loyalists who lost their king to rebellion shut their mouths and bowed their heads.

Long live the King!!

Between the loud shouts,

A man who defied heaven appeared.

It was King Sejo.
