48 – Career (3)
Unlike other students who were nervous, I worked on the composition of the story with a smile.
The reason I was so worried about the oral interview was because if I did well in the interview, the pass was virtually guaranteed.
To be honest, the composition of the story is at the level of eating rice cakes for me. And the reason can be explained in one word.
‘I’m a 927 writer.’
The test time for the story composition is given a total of 2 hours. If I can’t even fill in two A4 sheets of paper properly, I think I’ll have to retire temporarily or something…….
Anyway, as long as it’s not really nonsense.
─Let’s start the exam.
With the words of the test supervisor in front of me, the test papers were handed out in order from the front seat.
Um… Let’s see.
[Story structure: 50 points]
Photo) Alley in front of a house / A police officer smiling at each other and a grinning grandmother
Key word) Warmth
※Use the above elements to compose a story of one to two A4 pages.
At the top of the test paper were two pictures and a suggested word.
It sounds obvious, but anyone can see that the background should be the alley in front of the house.
In fact, this is a fairly easy configuration.
It’s not that difficult to create a heartwarming story like Jessier requested with just those elements.
To give an example, a phone call incorrectly reported due to the grandmother’s inexperience in handling the phone goes to the police station. Immediately after receiving her report, the police who rushed to the scene realized the fact and kindly informed her grandmother of her phone manipulation, and the case was warmly concluded.
If you organize the contents roughly like this, it will be okay.
Just.
‘It’s still an entrance exam, but if it’s too easy, the score will go down that much.’
A quick glance, most of the applicants will try to compose the content in this way, but if I become one of them, it will be difficult to get a high score.
Write…….
So I was even more worried about what to write.
Usually, when composing a story like this, it’s easier to give an impact by putting more effort into the suggested words.
The key word here is warmth.
It’s warmth…….
When you think of warmth, what is the first word that comes to mind?
It’s a very personal thought, but ‘family’ came to my mind first.
My father, who gave me a good word while giving me a drink during the difficult days of my previous life, and my family who cherish and trust me in the present world.
When I think of them, I feel a warm feeling in my heart.
So, suddenly, what if the police and the grandmother had a family relationship? I thought.
An image of something comes to mind.
The background of this story is an alleyway in front of a house as shown in the picture.
Yes…….
A cold winter with the first snow would be nice so that the warmth can be maximized.
Suchs-
I wrote down the stories that came to my mind on the exam paper without hesitation.
***
Until a few years ago, the video production department at Hanlim Arts High School was the most minor department.
That would be the case, and there was no way that the video production department would catch the eyes of the students, even though entertainment departments, practical music departments, and practical dance departments were holding out in the lineup on both sides.
In fact, even now, if you look only at the application rate and competition rate, it is the last among all departments.
Although, thanks to one writer, the ratio has doubled from 3:1 to 7:1 since last year.
Growing students are the age group with the most media exposure. In other words, it also means that you are the first to hear the news that is burning the world hotly, and you are sensitive to trends.
Then, how about the works of 927 artists, which became a hot topic not only in Korea but also around the world last year?
A lot of students have probably watched it, whether live, reruns or highlights. Just looking at Seo Eun-woo’s school right now, if you don’t know the contents of the 927 writer’s drama, it’s hard to get involved in conversation.
Thanks to this, I was able to inform most of the students about the fun of drama, and furthermore, it may have provided some goal to someone.
I want to make something like that someday…… An intense goal.
The reason why the application rate of not only Hanlim Art High School but also all video production departments across the country has increased since last year is because there are more young people with these goals.
Suchs-
Meanwhile…….
A man standing in front of the lectern was smiling contentedly while listening to the ensemble of ballpoint pens and sharpeners sliding across the paper.
Looking to be in his early 30s now, he was Donghun Han, who was in charge of the video production department at Hanlim Arts High School and the director of the B class entrance exam.
Han Donghun looked straight ahead with a satisfied smile.
Students applying for the video production department filled the classroom, but somehow I didn’t hear a single annoying noise.
Only quietly.
Only the sound of writing something on paper resonates throughout the classroom…….
Maybe they won’t even hear that in their ears right now.
You can roughly tell by looking at those expressions that are all the same.
Immersion.
All the students in the classroom were immersed in their own world.
This is the beauty of the story composition test.
Forgetting that it was a test at some point and writing your own story.
As a teacher, how could I not smile at this sight?
Han Dong-hun, who is in charge of the first-year scenario creation practical class in the video production department, was genuinely happy as a teacher that so many students showed interest in and supported this field since last year.
This was all thanks to the 927 Magic.
From noble mtl dot com
In the world, the social phenomena that are happening due to 927 artists are called 927 magic.
The public anger against the Japanese government and the flash mob were representative examples.
Anyway, thanks to that writer, it’s good that there are more young people in this field.
Perhaps among the dream trees here, a scriptwriter who surpasses the writer may someday emerge.
Of course…….
‘It must be very difficult.’
As a teacher of practical writing scenarios, Han Dong-hun knows how great a writer 927 is.
Excellent storyline and dialogue between characters that seem to come to life. Each of his works leaves a deep impression on people and disappears suddenly.
Even the timing of the plum blossoms ending is meticulous. Thanks to this, viewers who have been watching the drama unaware of time passing have no choice but to look forward to the next episode while watching the ending credits.
Donghun Han dares to evaluate that the writer of 927 is just a guru of drama.
Song Ha-yul, the chairman of Hanbit Arts High School, also praised it highly, saying that at least in Korea in this century, there will be no scriptwriters who can surpass 927 writers.
Still, the appearance of such irregulars gradually changes the world.
Now, the students in front of me will aim for that writer and grow at a tremendous speed.
…… This is an ideal phenomenon.
Tak-
It was then.
A small noise came from somewhere in the classroom.
It was the noise caused by casually throwing the fan on the desk.
Han Dong-hun had no choice but to turn his gaze there naturally.
And there, a male student was stretching with a refreshing face.
‘That child… ….’
Han Donghun clearly remembered the boy’s face.
After receiving the test paper for the first story composition, the examinees usually spend about 15 minutes thinking about how to compose the story.
Since the total test time was given to 2 hours, this amount was just right.
So far, the fastest student has been in charge of exam supervision several times, about 10 minutes. To be honest, I received a lot of deductions because of the poor quality of the story.
This was a matter of course. In this kind of test, the first foundation is the most important.
Short thinking time creates gaps in the story, and there are many blocked parts in the middle.
…… But that’s it.
That boy was shorter than 10 minutes.
No, it was much shorter than that.
Three minutes.
That male student thought about it for about 3 minutes and began to write something without hesitation.
To be honest, I don’t even boil ramen these days for three minutes. That’s why I couldn’t understand it even more common sense.
First of all, it is impossible for Han Dong-hoon himself to compose a story in such a short time. Even if you give a pro-level writer such a proposal and ask him to compose a story, it will take at least 5 minutes.
That wasn’t the only thing that mattered here.
Yes. Let’s say how you structured the story. But what the heck does that stretch mean?
Have you already filled in a story of one to two pages of A4?
No, it hasn’t even been 30 minutes since the test started yet?
Han Dong-Hun was dumbfounded, so he let out a laugh for a moment.
I just wanted to think that the meaning of that stretch was to relax my stiff body for a while.
So why don’t you grab the pen again and fill out the test paper?
But…….
“Haam… ….”
The male student let out a yawn for some reason and then slammed his face into the desk.
In case you didn’t know, Han Dong-hoon slowly walked to the boy’s side and checked his condition so as not to be seen.
“… ….”
However, no matter who heard it, they could hear the sound of even breathing, sleeping peacefully in the world.
He sighed and went back to his desk with drooping shoulders.
Well…….
I fully understand.
The storytelling test is a huge barrier to entry for beginners who don’t have enough practice.
Students giving up quickly is a very unfortunate thing as a teacher, but what can I do?
Whatever is important is your own will. If you try to get that student up again and hold the pen, it will only have the opposite effect.
At least it’s not causing damage to other students, so let’s move on for now.
Time passed so quickly.
After the promised 2 hours had passed, Han Dong-hoon spat out the end of the exam.
Some have a satisfied expression on the test paper they wrote, and someone has a expression full of regret.
And who……
“Write it. I slept well.”
…… You just seem to have no idea.
Yes. You wipe your saliva first.
“Thanks for your hard work!”
When the exams were all over, the students handed over the exam papers to Han Dong-hoon, who was standing in front of the lecture table, and moved on to the next waiting area.
And the last thing left in the classroom was that male student who hadn’t woken up yet.
“Did you sleep well?”
“Yes?”
A male student standing in front of the desk to hand over his exam papers like other students. Han Dong-hun smiled kindly and asked the male student.
At this, the male student made a bewildered expression.
“I understand. Storytelling is a very difficult test for beginners. But if you practice enough, there will definitely be good results later.”
“…… ?”
At Donghun Han’s consolation, the male student scratched his head as if that was bullsh*t. Then, I handed over the test paper to Donghun Han and left the classroom.
“…… This must have been enough comforting for that child.”
Han Donghun smiled bitterly and couldn’t take his eyes off the student until the end.
“Yes. Maybe I’ll see you again someday, so should I at least memorize your name?”
Soon, left alone in the classroom, Donghun Han read the test paper given to him by a male student who left the classroom for the last time.
At the top was the name of the male student.
“Your name is Eunwoo Seo… ….”
Han Donghun continued to slowly lower his gaze.
Obviously, the contents of the test questions should have been written below this.
Looks like he was holding a pen for a few minutes and scribbled…….
Well, shall we take a look?
Han Dong-hun read the writing written by a student named Seo Eun-woo out of curiosity.
However, even before he read the text, he felt something strange.
Why……
Why are the text written so tightly throughout the test paper?
Han Donghun turned over one more test paper just in case.
And when he saw the contents of the back page, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes in surprise.
Because……
“Nonsense… ….”
The back page was also filled with text just like the front page.
