Three Years Later

“Cut!” You yelled as the scene finished.  You and your film crew had been working on this scene all morning and it was now well into night. “Alright everybody that’s a wrap for today! We’ll see you all here bright and early tomorrow.” Since you left Seoul, you had finally made a name for yourself in the film industry. Sure you weren’t extremely well known, however you enjoyed working in the independent film market. You were currently working on a horror film that you had the pleasure of writing as well as directing, something that you had never done before.

Today’s filming was taking place in Los Angeles at a house in which your friend had lent to you for the purpose of filming, After all your film was on a tight budget so any way that you could save money was a plus for you.

You ate a few french fries before replying. “Yeah. I was there for a year and a half. Why?”

“No reason. Just curious is all since you don’t talk about your time there. If I had the opportunity to go over seas for work right after college I would talk about my experiences there. Heck I didn’t even know that you spoke Korean!”
