I was immediately mistaken as a monster genius actor - Episode 358

Kang Woo-jin, with a strong indifference, is moving to the shop. He was looking down at his phone with his legs crossed. His cell phone screen was full of Japanese. The reason was simple.

‘Wow - it's awesome? It's all unfamiliar talk..’

Because I was looking at the current media and public opinion situation in Japan. Today, Tuesday the 26th, is the first day of the release of ‘Unfamiliar Parasite’. Japan was in a state of turmoil with the release of 'The Unfamiliar Parasite', which had never been quiet before production until now, and which was strengthened by the power of Kang Woo-jin, which was several times greater..

‘The main search site is also unfamiliar. Ah, but this main article! Why did you use my photo like this???’

Various search sites in Japan, as well as SNS and many communities, were full of 'unfamiliar parasites'. The first screening will begin in exactly one hour. What kind of reaction will there be? During the preview, reporters and audience members said all sorts of things. Will it be similar? Woojin, with a question written on his face, asked several question marks in his mind..

but.

‘Well, the answer will come out soon..’

Woojin quickly changed the topic of his thoughts. Because ‘unfamiliar parasites’ are not the only snowball rolling now. From Miley Cara's surprise attack that broke out just a few minutes ago to the domestic release of 'Leech', which is just one day away. There were more than one or two cases waiting..

Now that I think about it, what about Kara rice cake??

Woojin tilted his head inwardly and moved his thumb as if it were nothing special. In no time, his cell phone screen changed. An article about Miley Kara posted by 'Power Patch' earlier. For a moment, Kang Woo-jin was a little surprised inside..

‘Wow, the power has turned..’

It was about the comments on the article. Within a few minutes of uploading the article, there were over 100 comments, but now hundreds of comments, many times that number, have been added. Of course, even now, the number of comments that are close to the public's enthusiasm is increasing in real time..

At this time.

“iced coffee! older brother!!”

Jang Soo-hwan, whose arm muscles were getting thicker, took the passenger seat because Choi Seong-geon was not there, folding the diary he was reading..

“We have been invited to all film festivals at the end of this year as well! Blue Dragon, the Grand Bell Award, everything! I feel like it's a bit early, what should I do? The level of interest in whether or not to invite my brother is the difference between heaven and earth! The CEO said it would be better for both of us to attend - what do you think???”

Looking at Jang Soo-hwan, who turned around, Kang Woo-jin answered lowly..

“Yes, I don't mind if both of you attend..”

“yep!! Haha, this year's domestic film festivals are, of course, a party for you and your films.??”

Stylists have infiltrated the conversation.

“Back purge back purge!! You broke Korea’s all-time record with ‘Island of the Missing’! There are also ‘leeches’!”

“Even though I have no connection with broadcasting this time, Woojin oppa is the top when it comes to movies.!!”

“If we do well, we’ll get three ‘Best Actor’ awards this year! Wow - last year I won the Rookie of the Year Award, the Supporting Actor Award, and within a year, I won the Best Actor Award, including at Cannes! You are a monster!!”

Soon, the van was filled with frenzy. Ah - Okay, now that I think about it, the end of the year is just around the corner. Woojin sighed inwardly..

‘Time flies - it seems like only yesterday I received an award at last year's domestic awards ceremony..’

Two months and a few days until the new year.

Whatever it is, the domestic entertainment industry at the end of this year will be.

‘Well, it's surprising, but the end of the year is going to be really busy too..’

It was obvious that the storm called Kang Woo-jin would blow violently..

At this time, Japan.

With the release date, Japan is full of stories about 'The Unfamiliar Parasite' with about an hour left until the first screening..

『Controversy- filled “The Strange Sacrifice of a Stranger” finally opens today on the 26th, and with only an hour left until the first screening, the reservation rate ranks first.』

『How was the adaptation of “The Strange Gisaeng,” which received unusual preview reviews? Available in theaters starting today』

『「“Familiar Gisaeng” reached #1 in advance sales as soon as it was released! Was the public curious about the performance of Kang Woo-jin, the Best Actor winner at the Cannes Film Festival??』

With the first screening of 'Strange Gisaeng' all around the corner, the Japanese entertainment industry, including Japanese media, production companies, film companies, agencies, etc., was abuzz with talk about 'Familiar Gisaeng'. Well, it’s such a hot movie, so it’s only natural.?

“This movie is finally being released, and there will never be a movie that was this loud from production to release..”

“Will it work out??”

“If it's the first day or a few days, the audience will be a little faster. The original work is written by Akari, and director Kyotaro is worthy of his name, right? Above all, Kang Woo-jin. Kang Woo-jin's aggro is incredible, and the other actors are also top-notch..”

“Well, this is the first time in the history of the Japanese film industry that the main male lead is a Korean actor..”

“But it will sell moderately and then fade away little by little. Anyway, such topicality only shines in the beginning, and in the end, the movie needs to have a solid content.” “Ah, looking at the preview review of ‘The Unfamiliar Parasite’, there was a lot of swearing..”

There are quite a few people who have a positive view, but there are also more negative views. Well, it was a phenomenon involving various emotions. Jealousy of the rotten people who turned their eyes away from change, antipathy toward Korean actors, jealousy of Kang Woo-jin, the ‘Man of Cannes’, what if things really go well? A smokescreen to hide worries and insecurities, such as those worries and sincerity..

“I heard that all the reporters who participated in the preview were criticizing 'The Strange Gisaeng'..”

“Current affairs audiences also had sharply divided likes and dislikes..”

“There were probably a lot of die-hard fans of the original - but how many changes had to be made to the script to cause such an uproar??”

“well. However, after looking around social media, I realized that it was a ridiculous movie, that it trampled on the original work, and that it was a movie that made me feel dirty. There's a lot of swearing, which clearly shows that the content isn't very good..”

“Hmm, for the first time in a while, I was wondering if there would be a movie that would surpass the theatrical animations - but it's going to be difficult.?”

“Still, since there are the names of the participating people, including Kang Woo-jin, it will probably get 5 million..”

After such a noisy time, it was a little after 9 o'clock in the morning. A familiar woman entered a movie theater in Tokyo. The girl with dark brown hair and a good-natured appearance was Saya Asami, who was the voice actor for Woojin in 'Boyfriend: Remake'. The reason why she, a famous Japanese voice actress, came to the movie theater this morning was simple..

‘Woojin's first Japanese film. I have to see it with my own eyes.’

As I have a deep connection with Kang Woo-jin, I wanted to watch 'Familiar Gisaeng' for the first time on the opening day. Japanese movie theaters are almost identical to Korean movie theaters, except for minor differences. Asami Saya was surprised when she entered the lobby of the movie theater..

‘There are more people than you think.?’

Even though it was morning, the crowd in the lobby was much larger than expected. The age range was diverse, but as expected, there were more young people. Saya then looked around the movie theater lobby. Indeed, there were many billboards and posters of ‘The Strange Gisaeng’. Most of the people in the lobby probably came to see ‘The Stranger’.?

After making her own guess, she received a ticket from the unmanned ticket machine and moved to the designated theater..

and.

“······and.”

As soon as I entered the theater, I opened my mouth slightly. There were more people sitting in the hundreds of seats than in the lobby. It's only 10 minutes before the movie starts, but half of the audience seats are already full. Saya, who tried to calm his startled mind, nodded and sat down in her seat..

I could hear the whispers of the surrounding audience..

There were many different topics, but the name Kang Woo-jin was also included a lot. We either cheer for him or criticize him. 10 minutes later.

-Sooooo.

The lights in the theater turn off.

‘do.’

‘The first screening of 'Familiar Gisaeng' has begun..

By this time, the hundreds of audience seats were almost full..

Same time, Korea.

Kang Woo-jin at the shop in Cheongdam. Although she had a silent expression, everything except her hair and makeup was perfect. To the extent that Woojin praises himself at her reflection in the mirror..

‘Hehe, it's okay..’

Her bangs were parted enough to slightly show her forehead, and her outfit was a beige blazer. Dressing up for two upcoming interviews with overseas media outlets. At a time when Kang Woo-jin was falling in love with himself, the designers and employees of the shops around him were pouring in questions..

“Mr. Woojin, Mr. Woojin! I saw an article pop up earlier, and that Miley Cara is really appearing in Woojin's work.??”

“huh? There was an article like that??”

“That's right! You know, ‘Beneficial Evil’, the one that Woojin is filming right now! There was a blonde woman in the photo taken overseas, and they said it was Miley Cara.??”

“Wow - no way! Woojin! It's real?”

Although it was intentional, it was a bit annoying for Kang Woo-jin. Well, in times like this, it's best to give a solemn and general answer..

“well. Are you done??”

“······Oh, I'm sorry. I made too much of a fuss.?”

“no.”

The shop employees, who came to their senses at Kang Woo-jin's cold tone, fell silent. However, after Woojin left the shop, the story about Kara spread rapidly again..

“Is it this article?? Look at the picture, this girl here and there!”

“Ah - blonde! She really looks a bit like Miley Kara??”

“Ah, probably not. There's no way that Miley Cara will film a Korean film..”

“Huh? But I look like Miley Kara?? Look at this bright blonde body, body!”

“It's just that he's a minor actor who looks similar. Seriously, why is Miley Kara filming Korean stuff? If you look at this article, it's all speculation. Chirashiya chirashi.”

“Hmm- really? Earlier, Woojin didn't really react either..”

“But what if this girl is really Miley Carr???”

“It's absolutely amazing!! Hasn’t a Hollywood superstar never filmed a Korean film??”

Meanwhile, the large-scale filming complex of ‘Beneficial Evil’ is located in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi-do. Man-woo Song, the bearded producer here, is in full swing preparing to film 'Beneficial Evil'..

“Good, good. yes.”

He was sitting in the seat where the monitors were placed and smiling. Eyes fixed on your cell phone.

“Burn brighter, brighter.”

We are seeing numerous media outlets following the articles published by the large ‘Power Patch’..

『[Issue Pick] Big Hollywood star 'Miley Cara' suddenly rumored to appear in Kang Woo-jin's 'Beneficial Evil'?』

『Miley Kara, who appeared in the leaked 'Beneficial Evil' overseas location photo in Bangkok, was also seen in Cannes. Is 'Beneficial Evil' also there?』

『‘Miley Cara, who is chewing up the Billboard charts, is on 'Beneficial Evil'? A large ‘rice cake’ that suddenly spreads rapidly.’』

Most of the entertainment world was already soaring beyond the rise of Miley Kara. It was natural. It was so absurd and unexpected, but on the other hand, it wasn't entirely impossible..

That is, if Kang Woo-jin is included in the relationship..

However, until now, a world-class superstar like Miley Kara has never appeared in a Korean work. That's why the media is drooling even more..

『‘Evidence of Miley Kara's appearance in 'Beneficial Evil' has surfaced! / Photo』

『'Miley Kara' in the 'Beneficial Evil' shooting photo that suddenly exploded! As expected, his appearance was confirmed due to his relationship with Kang Woo-jin.?』

The media is making a fuss. Public opinion reacts several times more severely than that..

-??????Eh????????????????

-What is this nonsense again hahahahahahahahahahaha

-Wow true????!

-↑It's a joke haha. It's just a piece of shit haha. They're talking nonsense for a day or two.??

-ㅇㅈㅈWhat's so disappointing about Miley Kara that it's a Korean work?? 100% bullshit

-But if you look at the photo in the article, it looks like... Miley Kara??! That fat blonde hair!!

- Shiba: Are there only one or two foreign women with blonde hair? Oh really hahaha I wish you guys got robbed by Kara after eating gosomi.

- Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha there's a separate comedy program He's doing well in Hollywood too.?

-But it could be Kara. Didn’t she go out to watch the show with Kang Woo-jin??

-How much is Evaim Miley Kara’s ransom? Can you afford it??

-Miley Cara appearing in Beneficial Evil...it's really awesome...but it's impossible...it's probably just a hook article.

Kara was hot online, but also in offline conversations at cafes and restaurants..

“I saw that Miley Cara was appearing in 'Beneficial Evil'?”

“Eh? What does that mean? Oh my, that's right.”

“I heard an article appeared??”

“Wow - look.”

Even though the speed of the snowball is accelerating like crazy,.

『‘Rumors of Miley Kara's appearance are spreading everywhere, but the 'Beneficial Evil' side is keeping quiet.』

『Is Hollywood star Miley Cara really starring in 'Beneficial Evil'? Kang Woo-jin’s side remains silent.』

‘Both ‘Beneficial Evil’ and Kang Woo-jin kept their mouths shut..

While KARA was dominating the entertainment industry as a whole, issues in the domestic film industry and media were also steadily growing in size. Of course, I also saw news of ‘The Stranger’ being released in Japan..

『[Movie Talk] 'Familiar Parasite' starring 'Kang Woo-jin' opened today, looking at social media, the audience was overflowing from the first screening/ Photo』

As expected, ‘leech’ was strong in Korea..

『Palme d'Or Award's 'Leech' wins overwhelming first place with reservation rate soaring to 50%'』

『[[Movie IS] 'Leech', which opens tomorrow, is already showing signs of being a box office success... No. 1 in domestic advance reservation rate!』

『‘'Leech', which swept the Cannes Palme d'Or and Best Actor awards, is finally set to be released tomorrow』

Kang Woo-jin's prestige or momentum was also frequently mentioned..

『[[Star Talk] 'Unfamiliar parasite' in Japan, 'leech' in Korea... 'Kang Woo-jin' releases a blockbuster movie in both countries a day apart’』

It was an absurd record..

The next day, the 27th. morning.

Many connections related to Kang Woo-jin were moving to the movie theater. No, even if it wasn't a personal connection or even if they had never seen Woojin, a lot of people flocked to various movie theaters in Korea..

Today, 'Leech', which graced Cannes and received global praise, was released in all movie theaters in Korea..

Since it was a work that had already attracted a lot of attention, many reporters also headed to the movie theater in the morning. Because I had to quickly publish an article containing the situation at the scene..

『‘‘Leech’ opens with 500,000 advance reservations and 77.3% reservation rate』

A black van had just arrived at the set of ‘Beneficial Evil’ around this time. Kang Woo-jin, with an indifferent face, got out of the van. There was filming for ‘Beneficial Evil’ starting this morning..

at the same time.

-Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.

As Woojin was about to take a step, a long vibration rang out from his jeans pocket. A phone call came. Kang Woo-jin, who gestured to the staff to wait for a moment, turned into a solemn face as soon as he saw her cell phone screen. Of course, the speed was the same.

‘Director Kyotaro - If you're going to call me this morning, then of course!’

The opponent was Kyotaro, the director of 'Unfamiliar Parasite' in Japan. Next, Kang Woo-jin put his cell phone to his ear and spoke in low Japanese, lowering his voice as much as possible..

“Yes, director. hello.”

Director Kyotaro's voice on the other side of the cell phone was very reminiscent..

“Woojin! I called as soon as the audience number was announced! Number of viewers on the first day of ‘Unfamiliar Parasite’! That's 850,000! 850,000!”

850,000 in just one day.

‘Crazy- 850,000??!’

'Island of the Missing', which became Korea's No. 1 film of all time and exceeded 20 million viewers, also had 700,000 viewers on the first day..

‘It was said that there were 150,000 more ‘unfamiliar parasites’ than that..

Meanwhile, L.A..

The city center of LA is lined with tall buildings. Among them, there is a building that looks quite old but has a lot of traffic. Sitting at a desk in an office near the top floor, a man with half-bald hair and round glasses spoke into his cell phone..

“Joseph, I'll be the director of that production. Instead, there is a condition.”

It was directed by Hollywood mogul Danny Landis..
