I was immediately mistaken as a monster genius actor - Episode 233

When Woojin Kang first spoke with Yusako Asami, who was his biggest fan and dreamed of becoming a voice actor..

I already knew then.

‘I have a favorite piece of work.?’

‘ah! For me, ‘Howl is a Moving Castle’!‘

OST of the world-famous animation ‘Howl’s Moving Castle’. In other words, he knows the song ‘Merry-Go-Round of Life’. You can play it on the piano right now. It wasn't just the 'carousel of life'. Another famous OST score from ‘Howl’s Moving Castle’ immediately popped into Kang Woo-jin’s mind..

100% It was because of the piano skills I acquired..

Of course, Woojin had heard the OST of ‘Howl’s Moving Castle’ but had never seen the score. Nevertheless, it is clear. As if you've played the piano a thousand times before.

My fingers were itching..

It was next that Kang Woo-jin discovered the white piano in the restaurant. A huge restaurant, many customers chatting or tasting food, and restaurant staff working busily in between meals..

A piano majestically placed in the middle.

‘Something is tickling me.?’

The white piano looked expensive at first glance and was shiny. His appearance alone caught my eye, and since there was no master playing, it seemed like he was telling Woojin to sit down..

So is that piano playable??

To be honest, Woojin thought at first that the white piano was for the restaurant's style. Is this by any chance Deco? Kang Woo-jin asked the female employee guiding him in low Japanese..

“Is that piano for ornamental use??”

The female employee was shy and stammered as if it was her first time seeing the actor..

“Oh, no. It's empty because it's not time right now. A little later, the pianist will come and play..”

There is a pianist who always comes. She says it's not time to play yet. So Kang Woo-jin sat in the seat where the ‘unfamiliar parasites’ were. She said the actors greeted her and asked her many questions, but Woojin's eyes were simply fixed on the piano in the center of the restaurant..

‘I'm worried.’

I wouldn't have noticed it if it wasn't there, but I kept looking at the piano in front of me. A few days ago, the piano in the high school music room that was the filming location for 'Familiar' came to mind. Then Woojin muttered softly as if he was talking to himself. Of course, inside.

‘Should I try it??’

It was a very simple idea. Moderate curiosity and attention. That white piano looked to be in very good condition. Unlike the piano in the music room, it will produce a smooth sound. Moreover, Kang Woo-jin did not have many opportunities to play the piano..

However, if you play the piano here, whether it's a mistake or a misunderstanding, it's annoying..

So what?

What do you think? It was a fact that Kang Woo-jin knew well, but it was not a big deal. You've already come this far, right? Before long, the area around Woojin was a swamp of illusion. The weight of the swamp just got a little higher..

-Sigh.

Woojin saw Asami Yusako, a girl sitting near the entrance who seemed to overlap with his younger sister, Kang Hyun-ah. She was happily talking with her family. Of course, ‘Merry-Go-Round of Life’ would be a good song. Because she is the most famous and popular among her favorite OSTs of her works. In addition to supporting the girl's dreams, it also served as a birthday present for her. In fact, to Woojin, her actions were closer to sincerity rather than fan service..

In other words, it was not calculated..

He then turned his attention to Director Kyotaro sitting across from him..

‘Come to think of it, the director also asked me to play the piano..’

It was truly killing two birds with one stone. Kang Woo-jin stood up without moving backwards. Even though the concept has a strong 'Nopaku' flavor, Kang Woo-jin's personality was originally a person who didn't worry too much. Tomorrow is tomorrow. If a problem arises, then.

I asked an employee who appeared to be the restaurant manager and he said it was okay to hit him..

“Are you trying to hit it yourself, Kang Woo-jin??”

“yes. Are you okay?”

“Sure. By the way, do you have any experience playing the piano??”

“well. maybe?”

“yes?”

That was the piano melody that started like that. Kang Woo-jin calmly strikes the white and black keys.

-♬♪

‘The ‘Merry-Go-Round of Life’ piano music spreads majestically throughout the restaurant. Naturally, the customers in the restaurant raise their heads one by one. To Kang Woo-jin sitting at the white piano. The contagion was fast. In just a few tens of seconds, all the guests' eyes fell on Woojin..

Because the piano melody I heard was too fantastic to ignore..

-♬♪

The ear-warming melody easily exceeds the level of learning to play in one or two years. The guests were so absorbed that they fell in love without realizing it..

“······Good.”

“Wow...you play well.”

“Hehe, that's great.?”

Even the restaurant's fifteen employees stopped working..

Yes, this is the only restaurant in the world where time stands still..

“······”

“······”

“······”

It started like that, but gradually a different atmosphere formed. Who is it? Who is that black-haired man? Who is playing the piano? Dozens of guests were curious about the man playing the piano. Of course, I immediately recognized that it was Kang Woo-jin..

“That man... Kang Woo-jin??”

“Kang Woojin? Didn’t you just come in and join the actors over there? It was definitely over there by the window..”

“Why is Kang Woo-jin playing the piano??”

Their shock doubled..

“Three, oh my. Woojin Kang plays the piano?”

“It's amazing, it's so amazing??”

However, Kang Woo-jin's performance became even more dazzling..

-♬♪

Shock mixed with shock.

“That Korean actor - originally a pianist?”

Because I played so well. It is not wrong to say that this is a large hall and a concert is being held here..

The climax and the piano sound gets smaller..

The grand atmosphere becomes tense. Although the overwhelming heart palpitations subsided, the guests could not take their eyes off Kang Woo-jin. It was because of anticipation about the next climax. His piano had amazing speed control hidden in it..

Accordingly, the girl in the wheelchair. Asami Yusako blushed her eyes.

“······My, I said I like ‘Howl’s Moving Castle’. That’s why Kang Woo-jin plays that song. mom and dad. I really don't think I'll forget today. How can I forget this gift....”

It looked shiny. That noble man who calmly plays the piano. It was amazing that such a thing existed in the world. Even if it's a dream, it's okay. It was enough to just remember this heart, this emotion..

In the end, Yusako had to wipe her eyes..

But the girl's parents did nothing to console her..

“Is that really what being an actor is like? Nope. I bought a piano for the birthday of a fan with whom I only exchanged a few words.······”

“Aside from actors, humanity itself is amazing..”

The parents were almost beside themselves with gratitude and gratitude that they had never experienced before and could not be expressed in words. Because everything I had to endure as my daughter, who was in a wheelchair, grew up was all washed away..

The girl's father and mother also had moist eyes..

-♬♪

A piano that touches your heart. The same was true for some of the restaurant's guests. For some reason, I wipe away my tears. Looking at Woojin, I was reminded of my fond past. The melody heard was the same, but the emotion that reached everyone was completely different..

Some people care about the past, some people care about the present, some people care about the future, some people care about the people they care about, and some people care about the current wounds..

Other people also take pictures of Kang Woo-jin. Record it as a video or take a photo. There were customers who took pictures from the beginning, and there are also people who uploaded their phones from the middle or from now on..

“Such a rare sight. Where can I go to see it?.”

It was true. An actor, a famous Korean actor, came to Japan and played the piano. Stealing people's souls.

It was a picture that could only have been imagined..

Around this time, someone slowly entered the restaurant filled with piano melodies..

-Sigh.

“······uh?”

A woman with her hair tied up. She was the pianist who was originally supposed to come. By the time she arrived, her performance of Woojin was coming to an end, and she had stopped and listened to her performance without realizing it, and suddenly narrowed her eyes. Then I asked the male employee standing nearby..

“what? No way, they recruited a pianist other than me.?”

“yes? Oh no. That person is Kang Woo-jin..”

“Who, who??”

“Mr. Woojin Kang. I'm an actor, that Korean actor..”

“No... I know that too. This is the actor's piano skills right now.?”

It was then.

-♬♪

The piano melody gradually became quieter and eventually stopped. Kang Woo-jin’s performance was over. But no one in the restaurant moved right away. It was because I was still filled with that emotion and emotion..

“······”

“······”

soon.

-Sigh.

Kang Woo-jin, who was sitting at the white piano, stood up with a silent expression. Only at this time were dozens of guests able to come to their senses, and applause first spread from the seats near the entrance..

-Clap clap clap clap!

It was Asami Yusako and her parents. The three were busy applauding Kang Woo-jin. Naturally, all the guests also jumped up..

-Clap clap clap clap clap!

-Clap clap clap clap clap clap.!

The restaurant was greeted with applause and rave reviews. It was all sincere. She expresses her deep gratitude to Kang Woo-jin, who took care of her during her brief moments and presented her with a similarly sensational scene. If not in a movie, where else can you see a cut like this??

-Clap clap clap clap clap clap.!

Words like thank you, thank you, it was the best, and it was amazing were mixed in between. Kang Woo-jin, standing in front of the piano, maintained his indifferent face, but inside he was extremely embarrassed..

‘Wow - I'm surprised, what should I do in times like this? Can I just stand there?.’

There were only a few dozen people applauding, but to Woojin, it felt like thousands of people were applauding. Ah, okay, let's say hello first. Woojin, who had a thick poker face, gave a small greeting to everyone. Then I turn my gaze and look at the seat near the entrance..

Making eye contact with Asami Yusako.

All I wanted to say was. Happy birthday. I support your future dreams. Yusako, who understood what he meant, bowed her head to Woojin several times while sitting in the wheelchair..

There was only one thing the girl could say.

“Thank you thank you.”

Of course, not everyone in the restaurant knew the story of Kang Woo-jin and the girl..

-Clap clap clap clap clap clap.!

till now.

after.

The applause from inside the restaurant to Kang Woo-jin continued. Meanwhile, the 'unfamiliar' team near the window froze. Except for some of the actors clapping, they couldn't even move..

Because I couldn't help but be surprised..

Mifuyu, who was looking at Woojin who was sitting next to her until just now, seemed completely in love with Kang Woojin..

“It's crazy, how can you tell that it only covers the basics? what. That's a foul. You're so cool?”

Other Japanese actresses were no different. Those were the facial expressions. Director Kyotaro, full of gray hair, said her face was similar to that of the actresses, but he felt different..

‘Possessed acting, Japanese, sign language. The song is also top-notch. You have so much ability, but what are those piano skills? why······’

It was Director Kyotaro who I couldn't understand at first. No, isn't it realistically impossible? But the impossibility unfolded before my eyes. There is no formula, but the answer exists? I don't know. I don't know.

Then, Director Kyotaro met a similar ending to Choi Seong-gun..

‘Yeah, yeah. The important thing is that Woojin exists anyway. That's enough. okay.’

I gave up judgment. I just decided to accept whatever I saw..

Around here.

“What the hell is this-”

Seong- gun Choi rushed into the restaurant. He may have heard the news late, but he was wearing comfortable clothes and slippers because he said he was in a hurry. Choi Seong-geon paused for a moment when he saw the customers in the restaurant standing up and applauding, but then quickly moved to join Kang Woo-jin in front of the piano..

Understanding the situation came later, but leaving was the first priority..

-Sigh.

Kang Woo-jin and Choi Seong-gun barely escape the restaurant. As soon as he got into the elevator, Choi Seong-gun asked Woojin..

“What?? What happened? Why are the customers applauding you? Did you see any acting there???”

Although he was asking in a hurry, Kang Woo-jin's answer was low and concise..

“Since I had a piano, I played a song I knew..”

“······What are you hitting?”

“Piano.”

“piano.”

“Yes, the song was inspired by a fangirl I saw earlier..”

No, you're not asking that, are you? What kind of piano suddenly? It was just a look, but Choi Seong-geon, who was taking a long deep breath, did not reveal his true feelings. Because this wasn't the first time this happened..

Asking only destroys common sense..

“Ah, yes. Yes, piano. Did he play a song he knew?.”

“yes.”

“After all, there is a piano in the restaurant over there..”

“you're right.”

“Yes, piano. Well done.”

“thank you.”

Meanwhile.

“wow!! Woojin Kang!”

“Interesting! I can't believe I saw something like that! Did you take a picture???”

“of course!”

“I wanted to hear one more song!”

“I am a fan of Kang Woo-jin from today..”

Inside the restaurant where Kang Woo-jin left.

“I guess he always played the piano, and then he turned into an actor..”

“I think with that skill, I would have been able to go to a concert. Should I look for it???”

It was full of his stories..

Two days later, January 31st. sunday.

Sunlight shining through the window. Thanks to the sunlight, the dust that could be seen at a glance danced gently and settled on the various musical instruments lined up by the window..

It was a music room.

And it was quiet. All you can hear is the light smell of wood and the sound of the wind blowing through the slightly open window. Sometimes the beige curtains flutter due to the wind..

It was then.

“High-Q.”

At the sound of a voice coming from somewhere, the closed door of the music room swung open. Someone came in. It was about 10 seconds later that his dry feet, which had been standing still near the door, moved. Bruises, bruises, bruises.

-attic.

Someone sat in front of an old black piano. Slow to act, he slowly raised his hand and placed it on the cover. Do not open the cover. He just puts his hand up.

As if opening the cover would instill some kind of memory..

“······”

But he eventually opened the piano cover. You can see white and black keys lined up one after another. I feel like I'm really old because I have small scratches..

He then raises both hands above the keyboard..

-Sooooo.

No, it was ‘Kiyoshi Iyota’.
