ACTING MISSION 014

SCHEDULE TYPE: TRIMESTER ( PART 1 OUT OF 1 ) SCHEDULE RESTRICTIONS: Cannot be paired with another trimester schedule, unless stated otherwise. for reference as to whether your muse is eligible for this event, please click over HERE.

( important note: this will be the first and only part for the acting mission! the next part after this will be after q2 is done. )

on APRIL 10, HEO AECHA has summoned all of the CURRENT ACTORS, new and old. while it is early in the morning, the rainy weather outside of the building can be seen as a possible indication for what is about to come for the ACTORS. and if it wasn’t enough, their usual term meetings are different as HEO AECHA is accompanied by the two managers — KIM DONGSUN and SEO HEEJUNG along with two new individuals.

INTRODUCTIONS & NEW MANAGERS

AECHA begins her spiel, “some of you are new here, so let me introduce myself properly; i am the head manager of LGC AGENCY, i oversee the careers of not only the company’s actors but also other talents. which implies that i’m a busy woman and we won’t meet all too often, but we usually have KIM DONGSUN and SEO HEEJUNG to take care of all of you. i’ve said in the past that this arrangement may change in the near future and today is that day. due to the rising success for some of you, we’ve realized that the management team would need some additional help taking care of all of you.” she stares at each of them one by one followed by the four individuals who are right next to her.

her attention is towards the two new people that the actors are unfamiliar with. “this is BYUN MIDO,” aecha pointed at the taller woman who smiled at all of the actors. “and that is HAN YOOHWA.” she then pointed out the brunette woman closest to her, who bowed her head. “fortunately, KIM DONGSUN and SEO HEEJUNG will continue to be your managers ( DONGSUN - BOYS, HEEJUNG - GIRLS ) but these two are the managers and will be taking care of two of our most popular actresses — LEE HANBYUL and YANG AERI.” AECHA goes on further explaining the details, but she reveals that BYUN MIDO will be taking care of YANG AERI while HAN YOOHWA will be taking care of LEE HANBYUL during their individual schedules.

NEW ACTORS

“for some of the older actors that might be unaware due to their busy schedules, LEGACY has been cautious about the trainees and debuted artists as of late. because of this, many of the coaches have gone through the journal entries written by the trainees… some of which are now moving to this current path. in some of the journal entries, there are ones that have led us to wonder if they do deserve to debut. in the past, we typically let the individuals switch to the acting path and debut right away, but not for this specific term.” AECHA pauses to look at KIM SOOAH and YOO HAEMIN in particular. “as for you two, the coaches and i have decided that you will be on a probationary period, which means that we won’t let you debut this term. however, if you show to us that you deserve to debut, we will let you do so in the next term.”

for SOOAH and HAEMIN, they will be in a probationary period during Q2 due to the journal entries they have written ( since the coaches believe that they might not be ready to debut at the moment so they [ along with the actor managers, KIM DONGSUN and SEO HEEJUNG ] will assess whether they think the two of them are ready for it. there are a few rules implemented for them which are listed as follows:

partaking in the TRAINEE MISSION 012 instead of the variety show mentioned later. they will be taking musical acting workshops to improve on their current skill sets ( and seeing that they’ve transferred to the acting path, this is one way to quickly measure their potential ). on the plus side, they can participate in the banana division audition but the success ( as in whether they will get a role ) will be determined based on their behavior throughout the term, and the audition prompts ( including points ).

permission to have a personal channel will be extended. originally in the rules, it is said that an actor/model would have to complete one term in that path AND have the minimum points requirement to be eligible for this. but for the ones in the probationary period, they will have to wait TWO terms instead ( the first being their probationary period and the second term will be to follow the rule above ).

cannot participate in OPEN EVENT 006 ( FANSITES ) and TEMPORARY OPEN EVENT 001 ( CAFÉ PERFORMANCES ) during this time. because they will not be publicized as joining the subsidiary, not many people will know about the career path transition.

they WILL be able to participate in OPEN EVENT 002 ( MONTHLY SNS ), but all of their posts will still be under the LGCENT account. they will not be able to have their own instagram accounts unless they complete TWO full terms ( similar to the personal channels, it’s one term during their probationary period and another to complete the minimum requirements for the personal instagrams ) AND have at least 6 posts on the LGCENT instagram account.

DORM ARRANGEMENTS

“because our new actors will be quite busy with their schedules, we’ve decided that instead of giving you the option to live offsite, all of you will be living in the dorms for now until we deem fit.” AECHA stated, which for the older actors is an unexpected surprise.

CHO MINKYU, KIM SOOAH, LEE HYUNSOO, and YOO HAEMIN will be staying in the dorms for the time being. in the case of SOOAH and HAEMIN, it’s more related to the above ( probation ), whereas for MINKYU and HYUNSOO, it’s because of the projects that they’re taking. so to make it easier for the managers, they’ve decided to let all of them stay in the agency dorms.

do note that the distance between the agency dorms for GIRLS and BOYS are in two separate buildings and located more than a walking distance away from each other ( and also the other dorms as well such as the trainee and idol dorms ).

( IMPORTANT NOTE: the info below regarding the SNS, DEBUT CONTRACT, and FANSITE only apply to the new actors who have joined this path [ CHO MINKYU AND LEE HYUNSOO ]. )

SNS

“sns is important for exposure for our actors. however, it’s not absolutely imperative, so the rules haven’t changed. you’ll be permitted a PUBLIC INDIVIDUAL INSTAGRAM ACCOUNT after meeting certain conditions. first, you must have completed a full trimester in this path and second, you must have at least 6 posts on the legacy entertainment account already. this just gives us comfort that you know what is or isn’t appropriate. for those of you who are eligible for an account, the information will be provided to you shortly. again, as with the dorms, this privilege can be taken away if you decide to do some funny business.”

DEBUT CONTRACT

“for those of you who are new, your acting debut is right around the corner … well, some of you might have had some smaller roles in other projects, but never mind that. anyway, there are new legal grounds to cover and so please review your new contract that will need to be signed and returned as soon as possible. i’ll let you read over them on your own.”

( this is just an ic note, there is no need to submit this ooc. )

FANSITE ( OPEN EVENT 6 )

for the ones that have joined the path, they will be eligible to participate in OPEN EVENT 6, where they can post content for the fansites! more information about this can be found over HERE.

BULLET INQUIRY: THE FINALE

“since bullet inquiry will slowly come to an end around MAY, the staff thought about rewarding most of you with a farewell party and vacation! unfortunately, for RIEON, BYUNGHO, and MINJAE, they will not be able to attend the vacation due to their hectic schedules with LGC SPRING BOYS but for everyone else, take this as a time to relax a bit and prepare yourself for what’s about to come!”

on MAY 10, all of the bullet inquiry cast members will be attending the farewell party. similar to how it was in ‘the truth untold’, it will be held in a restaurant where the cast members and staff gather together to celebrate the success of the drama and show the bloopers and funny moments that happened during the filming process. each of the cast members will be given a chance to say a short thank you speech.

then on MAY 23, all of the bullet inquiry cast members except BYUNGHO, RIEON, and MINJAE will be headed to incheon airport where they will be going on a short trip to bali! the press will be present during the cast’s arrival at the airport so please be professional ( and yes, you can use airport photos for OPEN EVENT 006 [ FANSITES ] if you choose to do so ).

the trip will last from MAY 23 to MAY 27 and in between some of the days, there will be activities for the groups to participate in.

the list below will be their hotel room arrangements:

ROOM #586 (FEMALES): sato minami, shin jieun, yang aeri

ROOM #572 (FEMALES): ahn yein, baek seona, jo sunhwa

ROOM #735 (MALES): hou minghao, kim jinseo

ROOM #787 (MALES): kim jinhyuk, okada taiyou

and the general schedule for the cast members are as follows:

MAY 23 - arriving at the hotel in Bali at around 7PM

MAY 24 - spending the day at kuta beach. during this time, the director and some of the staff members will have activities and games that the cast members can partake in ( ex. tug of war, surfing, volleyball, etc. ). can also shop in the stores near the beach.

MAY 25 - wake up early in the morning to see mount baur before sunrise ( optional to sleep in if they wish to skip this )

MAY 26 - free day ( with restrictions, see the note below )

MAY 27 - packing up belongings, heading back to korea

as a reminder, while most of their vacation will be spent relaxing and having fun, the managers and staff members will still be present during this time. any activities ( aside from the ones mentioned above ) or locations that the cast members want to visit must ask permission from their managers ( and ideally, it is best to also ask the admin team if the activity or location is acceptable before deciding to do a thread centering around it ).

‘THE BANANA DIVISION’ AUDITION

“i know that some of you just finished or are close to finishing the rest of BULLET INQUIRY but MBC is interested in producing a new show with many of our LGC stars. we hope that through your experience with NEW FACES and variety workshops, you can utilize the skills you’ve learned from there and incorporate it with the audition. not much has been said regarding this specific project, but they’ve temporarily titled it as THE BANANA DIVISION.” AECHA turned when she could hear HEEJUNG giggling over the name, but she had to admit that she thought the same as well.

for this audition, all of the actors will each schedule an appointment with the staff member for the show. a few days before the audition, each actor is asked to brainstorm and create a character for a slice of life and workplace comedy show ( which will then be used for the actual audition ). once they arrive at the audition, there will be three people ( director, casting director, writer ). the CASTING DIRECTOR will be asking the actor to tell them in about ten minutes everything regarding the character the actor has compiled thus far.

by the end of the ten minutes, the DIRECTOR will then give the actor one of the scenes mentioned below and the actor must react to it by acting out the scene through their character’s lenses.

#1: your team is assigned to create a new packaging design for a banana box that is about to be released in the upcoming months. today is the day that you’re asked to present the design to the committee but the problem is that your teammate accidentally lost/deleted the file that would be used for your presentation to show the new design. how will your character deal with presenting the idea without any references or information at hand?

#2: your boss is on vacation for a week and you and a fellow co-worker are assigned to take care of some of their work while they’re gone. a few days in, you notice that the co-worker has been slacking on their work thinking that it would be fine to procrastinate on their tasks or that you could finish up the rest of their work instead. would you confront your co-worker and if so, how would you do it?

#3: as a team building activity, your boss and team decides to do some volunteer work and plant some bananas. while planting the bananas, you hear some gossip from the other employees about your boss and their wealthy status. do you listen in to the conversation or remind them to focus on the assigned task?

( IMPORTANT NOTE: as a reminder, while the scenarios mentioned above can be viewed more as serious real life situations, this is for a slice of life and workplace comedy show, so comedy is key here! also, you [ as the mun ] can choose which scenario is given to the actor, but ic wise the actor will have no idea about it beforehand. )

information regarding the possible roles that you could audition for along with the requirements will be posted right after this!

HUMAN THEATER ( ACTORS )

there was only one more point to reveal to the group and AECHA hoped it was one that would help some people work on their comedy skills. AECHA explained another gig opportunity, “i’m not sure if some of you are familiar with it, but there is a show currently airing called ‘idol human theater’ where it’s a docucomedy series showing the idols’ life in a witty way. for one of their episodes, they decided to do a special and instead of having idols partake in it, they were interested in having some of the LGC actors be a part of it.”

for this episode, the show has invited BAEK SEONA, KIM JINHYUK, LEE HYUNSOO, and ZHENG LEO. in this episode, the four of them are supposed to showcase their daily activities as someone in the acting path. there isn’t a script to the show so a lot of this will depend on improvisation, HOWEVER, the staff members have given the four of them general roles that they would need to portray to contribute to the comedic effect. every so often, they will be brought to the side to the interview and the staff member will ask them some questions regarding the scene that was played out. ( if you want examples of how this show goes, you can refer to EXAMPLE #1 and EXAMPLE #2 )

BAEK SEONA: diva ( focusing more on how she’s difficult to please )

KIM JINHYUK: distressed person ( focusing more on the idea of falling into unfortunate circumstances )

LEE HYUNSOO: bad liar ( focusing more on people telling him to keep secrets, but ends up exposing it to the other actors )

ZHENG LEO: incompetent and clumsy hero ( focusing more on the idea that every time the ‘distressed person’ needs help, the hero comes in to help… only to make matters worse rather than better )

the main focus of this episode is to be funny, so when plotting, it’s recommended to think of ways to make it lighthearted and humorous. the roles were selected randomly as well.
