Van Gogh Reborn! - Chapter 98
Ko Hun gave Nolan a character painting.
Nolan, who couldn’t calm down after receiving the character design from Ko Hun last night, hurriedly looked at the painting.
There lived and breathed the brilliant detective he had pictured in his head.
From his bright eyes, he could feel a firm will.
From the posture of turning around, he could see that he realized something.
He turned over a page.
The expression of the angry genius boy grinding his teeth, the face of shouting loudly, the appearance of embarrassment, and the scene of tears.
Nolan really admired it.
It was a very satisfactory result for him, who has worked on several works and has all been with the best concept art designers.
It even made him doubt whether it was Ko Hun’s first time drawing concept art.
“It’s the best.”
Nolan said, shaking his head in disbelief.
“Do you know why concept art is important?”
Ko Hun, who was tired from working all day, sighed deeply and replied.
“I got it when I worked on it. This painting is the beginning of ‘The Strange Castle’.”
Nolan could tell that the boy was happy by the slightly raised corners of his lips.
“That’s right.”
Nolan thought that Ko Hun’s character design would be a great help for the casting scheduled for next month.
It wasn’t just that.
Everything from a very small prop to a room, street, town, or city, and even the weather was delivered through concept art.
It was the link between the script, the actor, and the production team and became the basis for everything.
That’s why Ko Hun was also involved in selecting the location for the filming.
Nolan grinned thinking about the young genius, who knew exactly his role and importance, and who looked more reliable.
“Take care of yourself.”
“Yes.”

While preparing for the pre-production of ‘The Strange Castle’ Nolan, who was also working on this year’s release, ‘Year One’, while suffering from a lack of sleep.
Director Nathan Evans came in.
“Director.”
Nolan raised his head and smiled as he saw the designs created by the concept art designers with the help of concept art paintings from Ko Hun in art director Nathan’s hands.
“What do you think?”
Nathan Evans sighed as he tried to say something.
He raised his hands and shrugged his shoulders.
“In words, please.”
Nolan pointed to Nathan and waved his pen as if pointing out how he was against the casting of Ko Hun.
“Yes, You’re right again. It’s crazy, we can go straight to 3D.”
Nathan Evans admired several designs that Ko Hun and the designers had designed over the past two days.
Nathan Evans, who worked with Nolan on several works, never imagined that Nolan would say okay to a design on a first attempt.
Nolan laughed absurdly at Nathan Evans’ change of attitude.
“If that’s the case, then this time we can get started quickly.”
“Leave it to me.”
Nathan Evans, who finished reporting that he was going to model 3D, opened the door.
Julia McCarthy, who was about to knock, was startled.
Nathan raised his hand and apologized to her and left the room.
Julia McCarthy, marketing manager for the Nolan division, calmed her surprised heart and came inside.
Nolan asked with a smile.
“What’s the matter?”
“I’m here for approval. I think we can start the press release.”
Julia McCarthy compiled a press release on ‘The Strange Castle’ and showed it to Nolan.
It has already been disclosed that ‘The Strange Castle’ is based on Maurice LeBlanc’s Arsene Lupin series.
The newly added content was that the casting will soon take place, the actual filming will take place in 2029, and that famous painter Ko Hun will be the concept art manager.
Nolan pressed the intercom button.
-Yes, director.
“Please make an appointment with Sunflower CEO Bang Tae. Hun too.”
-I’ll report it to you in 30 minutes.
“Thank you,”
Nolan, who instructed his secretary to set up a meeting with Sunflower, glanced at Julia McCarthy.
Julia McCarthy, who was watching the situation, nodded and said anxiously.
“It’s always like that, but I think you’re going through a lot. Have some of this.”
Julia McCarthy brought fresh fruit juice to the table.
“Thank you. Make it caffeine next time.”
“I won’t.”
The two people who joked while they were busy greeted each other lightly.
After Julia McCarthy went out, Nolan took a breather and focused on editing ‘Year One’ again.
He couldn’t postpone it a bit because he was going to explore the shooting locations from tomorrow.

[Christine Nolan’s new movie]
[Master Maurice LeBlanc’s original novel, “The hollow needle”]
[Director Nolan is secretly looking for a location]
[Artist Ko Hun joins as a concept art manager for the movie]
On the 16th, Christine Nolan, a world-renowned film director, announced a new film ahead of his new release.
It is the first information since the news that he started writing a script last year circulated.
Nolan’s new work was cited to be a movie based on the series Arsene Lupin by French mystery writer Maurice LeBlanc.
The production cost was not announced, but a spokesperson from the Nolan team said,
“You will be able to appreciate the visuals you have never seen before.”
‘The Strange Castle’ will hold auditions for selected people next month.
Meanwhile, young genius painter Ko Hun, who drew attention by exhibiting [Mask] at the Whitney Biennale, has joined as a concept art manager.
Director Christine Nolan said, “Ko Hun fully understands what’s needed for the script. ‘The Strange Castle’ will be completed in the form I want,” while placing his utmost trust in Ko Hun.
It will be possible to see the outcome of the crossover between a genius filmmaker and a genius artist in 2030.
-Stretzeman (Times)
Director Christine Nolan’s new film, which was gaining the absolute confidence of the fans, went viral.
Fans of the Arsene Lupin series cheered loudly at the news that production work was going smoothly.
Unlike the Sherlock Holmes series, which has been adapted several times, including TV series and movies, Arsene Lupin was attributed to being relatively non-mainstream.
-I’m not sure if it’s any other director, but if it’s Christine Nolan I can trust him👍.
-Although the Arsene Lupin series lacked overall perfection, character arcs were great✌️✌️✌️.
-If it’s Nolan, you can trust him.
-I’m going crazy when I read the article. There’s a year and a half left until the movie is released in 2030.
-Who is Ko Hun?
-He is a young genius artist drawing attention in the art world.
-I heard that he’s the grandson of artist Ko Sooyeol. I looked it up and found out that he was 10 years old.
-A 10-year-old kid is a concept art designer…., he’s a manager, right?😱😱 😱 😱 😱
-Does it make sense? 😱
-I know. He’s good at drawing.👍
-Even if it’s possible to draw, you need to know the content to draw concept art😡.
-Research is important. It’s like a base for making a movie, so it’s a stagnant market. Not often done by people who lack experience 😅.
-There’s a reason why Nolan wanted to use Ko Hun, I think he came to Ko Hun’s individual exhibition and decided then.
-Oooohhh, is he the kid who sold the painting for $14 million😳😳😳?
-There must be no one looking at the painting here. Hun is really good. He’s the best among contemporary artists.
-Look at our Hun [Picture] He’s cute, right? He’s good at drawing, but he’s really smart, he’s good at English and French.
-He even found Van Gogh’s last work earlier this year.
-It’s a penguin💓.
-It’s a penguin😘.
-Right now, there’s the biggest art exhibition in the world called the Whitney Biennale, where he has hung four of his works, and the time when he played with Henry Marceau was really really cute..
-I know Henry Marceau. Isn’t he the mean business tycoon?
-If you know Henry Marceau, you must have heard of Ko Hun. They’ve been working together since last year, and I think Ko Hun is training Henry.
-You should really look it up. He’s so cute and his drawings are so cool! I recommend [Frost Wheat Field].
-Still, isn’t he too young to be a concept art manager?
-Christine Nolan is not a slob and wouldn’t have picked someone for popularity.
-That’s true.
Ko Hun’s name began to be known little by little among those who were not very interested in art along with the news that he is collaborating with director Christine Nolan.
Meanwhile, in the art world, Ko Hun’s new move came as a big shock.
“What?”
Henry Marceau, who was lying in bed watching TV set up on the ceiling, frowned.
He jumped up and opened his smartphone.
When he searched for Christine Nolan and Ko Hun, there were many related articles.
The news that he was in charge of the concept art of the film was announced through a prominent channel.
Henry Marceau, who thought Ko Hun would have returned to Korea, was greatly shocked when he heard that Ko Hun moved to a movie theater, not an art museum.
No matter how big the investment was, the amount that the film crew could allocate to concept art was limited.
It was not even comparable to the economic value of Ko Hun’s works.
“What are you thinking, brat?”
Aside from money. Henry Marceau was a man who could not do art under the direction of others.
Henry Marceau was confused because he thought Ko Hun was his kind.
For a moment, he remembered that Ko Hun’s parents were famous movie art directors.
If he grew up watching what his parents did when he was young, he thought Ko Hun could set his career path there.
But that didn’t happen.
After [Marceau’s Jewel], Henry Marceau, who thought Ko Hun as his rival, wanted to compete with him.
The competition at Whitney Biennale ended in a draw, so he wanted to continue competing with him until he was satisfied.
Ko Hun had to stay at the art museum until he was convinced that he had definitely surpassed Ko Hun.
Thinking Ko Hun was running away, he pressed the call button as soon as he unfolded his smartphone.
He was connected to Michelle Platini, whom he had most recently contacted.
She answered the phone in an urgent voice.
-I’m busy. Do I have to talk on the phone now?
“Send Ko Hun’s contact information.”
-What? You can’t leave him for a second. What happened now?
“I have to meet him.”
