I was immediately mistaken as a monster genius actor - Episode 342
People sometimes freeze when they suddenly see an unexpected sight. I was speechless, I was so shocked that I stopped thinking, etc. In any case, the huge 3,000-seat ‘Lumière Theater’ at ‘Palais des Festivals’ was exactly that..
“······”
“······”
“······”
The only Korean film invited to the ‘Competition’ section of the Cannes Film Festival. In other words, the afternoon screening of ‘Leech’. The 3,000 seats are full. However, the audience, which was filled with world-renowned celebrities, was deathly quiet. Everyone, regardless of nationality. There is not even a cough inside the magnificent theater..
Kang Woo-jin's greeting in a low tone and what happened after that.
“Bonsoir, Je suis très content d'être in Cannes.”
The French language spreads throughout the theater. It was even very fluent. The first to react was the interpreter next to Woojin. He looks back at Kang Woo-jin with wide eyes..
‘······What, what! Why is this person so good at French??! It's not at the level you practiced.???’
On the other hand, Kang Woo-jin's greeting full of cynicalness continued. Of course it was continuous French..
“It's an honor to be able to show you 'Leech' and introduce my acting..”
3000The audience's wide eyes still showed shock. There was also a moderate amount of confusion. It was well worth it. No one would have expected that a Korean actor, especially one they had never seen before, would suddenly say hello in French..
In the middle of the day.
“her-”
“······?”
“What, what??”
“and-”
An experienced director with short white hair, Gabok Ang..
‘French? Do you speak French? English, Japanese, and sign language are not the end? Have you stayed here in the past???’
Great actors Shin Shim-ho and Oh Hee-ryeong.
‘What the hell is this guy - is there no end? He has such abilities, but how can he even speak? This is impossible unless you have been trained to be an actor since day one..’
‘···Oh my, practice?? No, even though I don't know French at all, this is above the standard? What on earth is this guy?.’
Jin Jae-jun and Han So-jin with their mouths wide open.
‘Wow, that's crazy. Can you even speak French?? Were there people studying abroad in France as well???!’
‘The ‘Leech’ team was all staring blankly at Kang Woo-jin, who was standing with them. His face was half soulless. Of course, illusions also increase in size at will. But Woojin, heedless of the shock around him, did not stop speaking..
“I was nervous at the thought of watching ‘Leech’ with many people, but I acted hard and showed no shortcomings..”
From about this point.
“What is that Korean actor? I'm very fluent in French?”
3000The audience began to stir. This was especially true for French personnel, who accounted for more than half of them..
“······That's great. Have you been practicing? It's so natural after going through that..”
“I don't think I practiced... Even if I just lived in France, I would believe it. We know when we hear it.”
“Didn't that actor speak fluent English on the red carpet???”
“Of course, the pronunciation is at the level of a local. It looks like you lived in France in the past..”
“Maybe he learned acting in France.”
“Ah, that's a possibility..”
Cannes officials, actors, directors, reporters, etc. It was strange to see a Korean actor living in a faraway place speaking their own language so casually..
“Korean actor in Cannes history. No, this is the first time an Asian actor spoke French at a native level.?”
“I think I've done simple exercises before, but this is my first time doing something like that. I witnessed a strange sight.”
“Amazing, looks like he has connections in France.”
“Judging by your French skills, you've probably spent at least a few years here, maybe more..”
“Maybe mixed race.”
“hmm.”
The murmur grows louder. The Cannes Film Festival may seem like a festival for people from all over the world, but if you look inside, there are a lot of people from France. That's why I'm more excited.
Woojin Kang concluded his greeting in French..
“As the director said, the actors and staff all worked hard to complete this work. I hope you enjoy it with interest..”
He, dressed in an all black suit, calmly handed over the microphone. Jin Jae-jun, who was looking at Woo-jin blankly, suddenly received a hand microphone. However, the eyes of the 'Leech' team and the 3,000 audience members are still.
“······”
Kang Woo-jin, who had a strong poker face, was completely impressed. Miley Cara shouted with sparkling blue eyes. Of course, inside.
‘What is that guy?!!’
This was especially true because she had witnessed quite a bit about Woojin..
‘That's true for English, but aren't you good at Japanese? Plus, great vocals and piano! Even ‘CQC’! The acting is also ridiculous.???’
Along the way, she even remembered the dishes Kang Woo-jin had prepared. Come to think of it, he even had chef-level cooking skills. Kara herself, a world star, had acting and musical ability, but the physicality of that cold Korean actor in front of her was very distant..
‘Monsters, aliens. Aren’t those words insufficient? And why are you so calm after turning the entire theater upside down???’
The expressions of the 10 official judges of the Cannes Film Festival are also diverse. What they have in common is surprise. Joseph and Megan had furrowed brows, wondering if what they saw was reality..
“It's not strange to speak French... No, that's weird. It's so strange.”
“The reality is that it is difficult to even have a language. Kang Woo-jin speaks several languages without any hesitation - that man may actually be in his second life..”
“2Even the episode is strange..”
The stunt team and executives of 'Universal Movies' were also in awe. Because one actor had so many things. On the other hand, director Danny Landis, a big name in Hollywood who is not familiar with Kang Woo-jin, was relatively calm. Of course, I was surprised, but compared to others, I lacked information..
‘French speaking at a local level.’
Director Danny, with his arms crossed, stared at Woojin on stage, while recalling one of Joseph's explanations he had met during the day. Kang Woo-jin's past is unclear..
‘I heard that your English is also of a high standard. Seeing as how fluently he even speaks French, it seems like he developed his acting skills in Hollywood and here, not in Korea..’
Errors are rampant.
‘By the way, that actor - he's quite relaxed. Do you have a lot of guts, or do you have a lot of leisure? No matter how you look at it, he is not an actor who debuted for 2 years..’
Here, director Danny focused on something other than Woojin's French. The energy and dignity he exuded was worthy of a veteran..
‘A dignity or poise that is quite rare. You can't imitate something like that. It comes out naturally. How on earth could something like that be captured in two years?.’
Kang Woo-jin's current force was only possible after working as an actor for dozens of years. The reality is that it cannot be learned in just two years. Director Danny, a Hollywood mogul, couldn't have known this..
whatever it is.
“······Hello, this is actor Jin Jae-jun..”
As the atmosphere heated up, Jin Jae-jun continued his greeting. Of course, even at this point, Kang Woo-jin’s poker face was undisturbed. However, Woojin was trembling inside right now..
‘Wow - I'm tired! I was so nervous I almost screamed! Ugh, I feel pressured because everyone is glaring at me so much. Still, when will I ever use French again???’
The first official concept of the Cannes Film Festival was a huge success..
‘Since it is uncertain whether it will win an award, it is right to try it at this time. Ah, but my heart is racing!’
10minutes later.
‘After the main characters of 'Leech' finished greeting each other, they took their seats in the first row of the theater. Meanwhile, the eyes of the 3,000 audience members were focused on Kang Woo-jin..
Because his impact was so strong.
Naturally, whispering continued. 10 judges or something.
“What an amazing actor..”
“Well, it's definitely something special. I'm going to draw some attention to this issue..”
“What about acting??”
“Now you'll know when you see it.”
“If the acting is disappointing, the impact will soon fade..”
“On the other hand, if the acting is good, the current impact will make your stomach jump..”
“First of all, I need to focus on the review..”
reporters etc..
“That actor, Kang Woo-jin? I like the acting, good or bad. Either way, it's a hot topic..”
“That's right, but I think it would be fun if the acting was a bit disappointing..”
“From what I heard, it looks like the acting isn't bad..”
“Ah, here we go. Let's take a look first..”
At this time, the lights inside the magnificent ‘Lumière Theater’ were turned off. This means that the second screening of ‘Leech’ is imminent. In other words, not only Kang Woo-jin, who has an indifferent face,.
‘Oh, let's do it.’
‘Everyone in the audience, including the Leech team, Kara, and director Danny, turned their attention to the huge screen. Then a few seconds of silence. The first thing I heard was the sound..
-[“Phew.”]
The sound of someone breathing filled the dark theater. The large, dark screen gradually turned gray. In an instant, the 3,000 spectators recognized that gray color as cigarette smoke. The angle is a close-up through cigarette smoke. A man's face appeared on the screen. It was Kang Woo-jin..
At the same time, his narration.
-[“I don't know anymore who I am. Who do you exist as? I'm lost. Am I right in what I'm saying now??”]
Kang Woo-jin's lines spread throughout Cannes..
-[“Aren't they just making excuses to fit the situation? Again, I don't know. You might be smiling tomorrow morning.”]
There was no problem with English subtitles running at the bottom of the screen..
-[“Will I be the one smiling tomorrow morning? I'm confused. Who am I imitating, or is it me?.”]
Kang Woo-jin on screen. No, ‘Park Ha-seong’ was squatting. Full shot. It continues to emit cigarette smoke. His expression was bored, but the smoke he gave off was full of hardship. Soon, Woojin put out his cigarette on the floor and looked up at the sky. The weather is so good. But Kang Woo-jin did not laugh. I just click my tongue briefly.
His voice is heard again.
-[“But now I can't find the real me. I think I forgot it on the way. It'll be hard to find.”]
At this time, a shout without a person was heard..
“hey! hey!! Stop playing and go back to work!!”
“······Ah-yeah.”
Kang Woo-jin wakes up out of the blue. Wearing a cheap suit, he picked up a circular tray placed nearby. The screen showed a party in a large yard with grass and many rich people with a high price of life..
-♬♪
A place filled with soft classical music and relaxation. The angle gradually goes up. The title appeared in the middle, showing Kang Woo-jin among the chaebols..
-‘leech’
Up to this point, the 3,000 spectators enjoyed the experience in peace. But it wasn't long before the twist hit..
-[“What are you looking for??”]
The meeting between Kang Woo-jin and his wife, Oh Hee-ryeong, who cannot speak. And Woojin’s sign language. In an instant, the audience's expressions changed. It seems like I was shocked again. Because not only French but also sign language was so dazzling. Of course, it was Woojin's story in the play..
Next is Shim Shim-ho. In other words, the appearance of ‘Chairman Yoon Jeong-bae’. Soon they attached ‘leeches’ to the limbs..
[“Honey, I'll be right here playing with that kid. the party is so boring.”]
In an instant, the 3,000 audience members focused on ‘Leech’. Tension suddenly soars. Although most audiences still expected it to be a success, 'Leech' somehow had a mysterious eerieness..
The actor who immediately caught the attention of the 10 judges and the audience was Shim Shim-ho..
‘Indeed, the energy is extraordinary right from the start..’
From the conversation between Kang Woo-jin and Shin Shim-ho, ‘Leech’ gained a sense of speed..
-[“Your job is simple. You can be my wife's secretary..”]
-[“what to say now.”]
- [“It's a good thing to say, but I'm just saying that you should be a servant. Be my wife's companion, play with her, eat with her, and go shopping with her..”]
-[“······”]
-[“There is only one goal. First, make my wife depend on you, blindly.”]
The beginning of catastrophe. From this point on, the audience noticed subtle changes in Kang Woo-jin's expression and psychology. This was after he entered the chaebol family. His feelings with his wife ‘Yoo Hyeon-ji’ were gradually becoming less about ‘work’ and more about ‘reality’, and a very faint ‘possessiveness’ was being expressed..
The first lie was to 'Yoon Ji-min', the youngest daughter of a chaebol family..
-[“What did mom just say?!”]
-[“He told me to be friendly with him..”]
No, the wife, ‘Yoo Hyeon-ji,’ said in sign language, ‘Ignore my daughter.’ However, Yoon Ji-min believed Park Ha-seong’s words. Do you believe it? Take my word for it. Little by little, ‘Park Ha-seong’ or Kang Woo-jin on screen changed. Yoo Hyun-ji and Yoon Ji-min were targeted, not others..
When you tell a lie, it becomes reality..
-[“Then it's real?”]
Then it wasn't fiction. Who can tell a lie? In this house, Kang Woo-jin was the only one. Lies and facts were not even visible to the eye. Only phenomena occur. Lying was like magic. If you spit it out, it will come true.
Kang Woo-jin's psychology has developed into a serious mind..
His influence grew in size..
To my horror, Woojin's face was completely different from the beginning. Chairman Yoon Jeong-bae felt that things were getting strange, but he was too busy. The first one to appear here was Yun Ja-ho..
The background is the yard of a very large house..
Yun Ja-ho was the first to open his mouth, laughing..
-[“How is your mother doing these days??”]
Kang Woo-jin does not answer right away. I glance at Yun Ja-ho. Close up of his pupils. The power in my eyes has disappeared. It has been altered and transformed. It was pure but cloudy. In ‘Leech’, there are frequent close-ups of Kang Woo-jin’s eyes. She wanted to show the audience his intentions..
Now he was a silent monster.
-[“Mrs. No, my mother's condition is very good..”]
and.
‘······oh my god.’
Miley Cara's blue eyes widened and she covered her mouth with both hands..
‘Something beyond methods. I can't express it in words, that acting.’
Because I was scared.
