I was immediately mistaken as a monster genius actor - Episode 365
‘‘Cliller’ was an EX+ grade, one higher than the ‘Beneficial Evil’ EX grade. Kang Woo-jin, seeing that, honestly had a hard time imagining it..
“Wow, EX+ level?? How crazy is this???”
It was also impossible to estimate. The best guess is that 'Beneficial Evil' will be higher than the SSS-level 'Leech', which turned the Cannes Film Festival upside down, and that 'Clierot' will be even greater than that..
“No - 'Leech' won Best Actor at the Cannes Palme d'Or. Plus, the number of viewers after it was released was amazing.?”
That was it. Choi Seong-geon, who is full of knowledge, would be able to give an answer to some extent, but Kang Woo-jin has not yet reached that area. Therefore, Woojin just smiles..
‘I don't know, anyway, I just have to do what I can do well..’
There was no point in thinking deeply here anyway. If you just keep acting, that day will come someday. So, what is certain now is filming ‘Beneficial Evil’ and landing the lead role in the unclear ‘Cierrot’..
-Sigh.
Woojin, who was looking at the white square, suddenly lay down. And then he looked into the dark void of sub-space and chanted..
“Getting the role - well, then. What was the title? Ah, will it be similar to ‘Last Kill 3’??”
Obviously the system would be the same. 'Last Kill 3' and 'Clierrot' are the same Hollywood movie. However, there is a difference in roles. Moreover, the scale of the film industry is like heaven and earth. In other words, it won't be as easy as 'Last Kill 3'..
It's hard to imagine clearly, but it was Woojin who felt it instinctively. However, he soon became nothing special..
‘I'm planning to take on the role in a combative way - but there's no need to be thirsty even if it doesn't work out. It's not just one movie..’
EX+ level was a waste, but as Kang Woo-jin thought, Hollywood, the world, was wide. There will be another work of the same level somewhere. While organizing his thoughts, Kang Woo-jin took a break in subspace. After lying down for as long as he wanted, he shouted 'Exit' and returned to reality..
van driving on the highway.
Kang Woo-jin, who had improved his stamina, looked down at the 'clown' scenario on his lap with a calm expression. turn the page.
-Palak.
It was to complete the reading (experience) in subspace..
About two hours later.
Kang Woo-jin, who arrived in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi-do, was currently filming as ‘Jang Yeon-woo’..
“Hi-Action!!”
About 100 staff members, actors, and producer Song Man-woo move as one body. In such a bustling scene, where the actors and staff were gathered, a man with ponytails was standing with his arms crossed and a serious look on his face. It was Choi Seong-gun. He was watching Kang Woo-jin, who was performing passionately as ‘Jang Yeon-woo’, closely..
‘······I think we need to plan it well..’
I was shaking my head. Of course it was related to ‘clown’. Soon, Choi Seong-geon remembered the conversation he had had with director Ahn Ga-bok this morning..
It starts with director Ga-bok Ang, sitting across from Woojin, explaining the situation..
“First of all, this ‘clown’ work is still a top secret..”
Choi Seong-geon, who is quick-witted, answered right away..
“of course. Just by looking at it, it’s a big project. Only me and Woojin know..”
“It won't take that long. Woojin has decided to jump into this work, so I will contact you soon about the timing to reveal it to the world..”
“···All right. By the way, director.”
“hmm?”
“What is the reason why the director brought this work?.”
Why did you go to Hollywood all of a sudden and offer 'Clierot' to Kang Woo-jin as soon as you came to Korea? Even making an appointment in such a hurry. Choi Seong-gun's curiosity was quickly answered by director Ahn Ga-bok's words..
“Because I am in charge of directing this work..”
Choi Seong-geon was very surprised. Of course, Kang Woo-jin was quiet, but.
“Yeah?!! Are you serious?? Oh my! Congratulations, director!!”
Choi Seong-geon immediately realized that Director Ahn Ga-bok was the first Hollywood director. Choi Seong-geon thought it would be a deal-breaker since he won the Palme d'Or at Cannes, but he didn't know it would happen so quickly. On the contrary, director Ang Bok was relaxed..
“thank you. Hmm - Okay, I think it's right to do as much as I can for now..”
“······”
“I decided to direct this 'Cierrot', and the Hollywood film company producing it is 'Columbia Studios'..”
“!!!”
Choi Seong-gun's eyes widen once again. It was natural. 'Columbia Studios' was by far one of the largest distribution and film companies in Hollywood. In other words, the conclusion is that this ‘clown’ is an incredible scenario. Choi Seong-geon opened his mouth slightly and turned his gaze to Kang Woo-jin next to him. Woojin had just been listening silently without any change in his expression..
The only one surprised was Choi Seong-gun.
Choi Seong-geon, who suppressed his excitement as best as possible, muttered to director Anga-bok:.
“Sorry, you can continue..”
“I'm sorry, but I can only give you two pieces of information. Oh, I should tell you that ‘Columbia Studios’ is also okay..”
Director Ahn Ga-bok's eyes were focused on Kang Woo-jin..
“‘Woojin- gun, your name was also on Columbia Studios' casting board. Even if it weren't for me, I would have contacted you there, but I just wanted to give you the scenario myself..”
“Woo, this is Woojin.?”
“hmm. Perhaps the Best Actor award at the Cannes Film Festival had the biggest impact..”
“······”
“Of course, other than Woojin, their casting board is also full of top Hollywood stars..”
Director Gabok Ang, who answered, began to explain again..
“However, it’s not like I gave Woojin the ‘clown’ scenario in a special way first. ‘Columbia Studios’ is probably also moving now. I'm guessing he's handing over the script to various Hollywood actors on the casting board, with an emphasis on fair time..”
“···It's fair time?”
“is it so. They will be given almost identical scenarios and brought in for testing around the same time. Among them, I will choose the actor who best suits ‘clown’..”
“ah.”
“Even though it's the same time, we want to see which actor has the strongest concentration. or.”
Director Ahn Ga-bok stared at Kang Woo-jin..
“Like who can bring a horrible clown to life faster?.”
Here, Choi Seong-gun is once again a reality. Returned to the set of ‘Beneficial Evil’. And then, looking at Kang Woo-jin in the scene, he muttered softly..
“What a terrible clown.-”
And soon.
‘That ‘Columbia Studios’ movie. The director in charge of it is director Ahn Ga-bok, a member of the history of the Korean film industry. If Woojin joins here.’
His appearance as the representative of entertainment has changed..
‘Korea's first 'Palme d'Or' and 'Best Actor Award' went to Hollywood in succession..‘
It was a big scoop.
After the weekend, on the 8th, LA.
Korea at sunrise and LA in the afternoon are the centers of the American and global film industry. Therefore, there are a huge number of related companies. Distribution, film companies, agencies, various production companies, etc..
In other words, several movies are produced at the same time..
The genres are also diverse. In a large conference room at a film company in LA, a meeting was in full swing regarding film production. Foreigners were sitting at the U-shaped desks, with laptops placed in front of them. The overall lighting in the conference room is a bit dim. A video was being displayed on the screen in the front..
-♬♪
It was the music video for the title song of Miley Kara's new album, which has garnered hundreds of millions of views and is shaking up the Billboard charts recently..
-【alcoholism(feat. WooJin)】｜Miley Cara
All the foreigners sitting in the conference room stared at the music video in front of them in different postures. What is unique is that it focuses on a character other than Miley Cara in the music video. To be exact, only the Korean actor's parts, not Kara's, were being played repeatedly..
It was Kang Woojin in the music video..
When the foreign woman sitting in the front who was in charge of presenting the meeting moved the mouse, the music video stopped. But it wasn't over. The foreign woman played another video she had prepared this time..
-♬♪
This time, the song and animation were played in Japanese. It was the opening song of ‘Boyfriend: Remake,’ which once topped the Japanese Oricon chart. Then why are these foreigners listening to Kang Woo-jin’s songs and vocals??
Even the expressions on the faces of all the foreigners were serious..
After the opening song of the animation ‘Boyfriend: Remake’, now another song. OSTs from Netflix’s ‘Boyfriend’. These were all songs that dominated Korea's music charts, and the dozen foreigners sitting around the U-shaped desk listened quietly..
“······”
“······”
Some people were seen closing their eyes and enjoying the view or busily writing something down in their diaries. Everyone concentrates in their respective postures. Although the video or song changes, the posture of the foreigners in the large conference room does not change much. What they have in common is that they pricked up their ears to Woojin’s vocals..
Then.
“Next is YouTube..”
A foreign woman sitting in the front, handling various videos and sound sources, clicked the mouse. Soon, a Japanese restaurant was displayed on the front screen, and then Kang Woo-jin sitting at the piano appeared. he plays the piano That's right, the current video was from the past when Woojin hit the 'Merry-Go-Round of Life'.
-♬♪
The piano melody filled the conference room. The expressions of the gathered foreigners changed slightly. Eyes widening or mouth opening small.
“······Your skills are great.”
“Is that enough to have been properly educated since childhood??”
“Your piano skills are like those of an expert, like Miley Kara’s music video or this video..”
“Yes? Have you given up trying to make music??”
“It's not unheard of, there are a few actors like that in Hollywood too..”
Their exclamation, which they had been holding back from the beginning, spread little by little. But as if this wasn't the end, the female foreigner in the front seat moved the mouse again. This time, what appeared on the front screen was a familiar YouTube channel..
-[Channel Name: Kang Woojin Alt.]
Woojin Kang's YouTube Channel.
Here, various videos and songs of ‘Kang Woo-jin’s sub-character’ were played. Of course, all of them are cover songs performed by Woojin. Sing Japanese songs or pop songs in Korean, change Korean songs to English, and many more. Among them was a cover of Miley Kara's hit song. The songs with the highest number of views are played in succession. there is no end.
‘The ‘Kang Woojin Alternate Character’ channel had numerous songs that proved Woojin’s vocals that tens of millions of subscribers fell in love with and even Miley Kara was fascinated by..
-♬♪
yet.
“That's it for now.”
The lights in the conference room where various videos and songs were playing brightened. It was said that the viewing time was over, and the gathered foreigners immediately opened their mouths one by one..
“Kang Woojin - Vocal skills are also good, but the tone is unique. It's not common.”
“If that's the case, there's no problem with being a singer, right??”
“of course. If you don't say you're an actor, people will honestly think you're a singer..”
“But he's an actor, and he even became the first Korean actor to win the 'Best Actor' award at Cannes..”
“Is it true that only two years have passed since debut??”
There is a transparent file with Kang Woo-jin's photo on every foreigner's seat. In other words, the topic of this meeting is Kang Woo-jin. Well, the videos and songs that have been released so far were proof of that..
“Not to mention vocals. In particular, his piano skills stood out..”
“There may have been more interest because it is the ability we are looking for..”
“But my main job is...an actor. Am I the only one who finds this absurd??”
“Actually, acting is the main thing, that actor. He also has the acting skills to overturn Cannes..”
“It was written in the introduction section of the YouTube channel that everything except acting is a hobby..”
Amidst all the noise, a consistent conclusion was reached..
“Anyway, my skills have definitely been proven. It may be different when we meet in person, but if you look at all that data, the evidence is overwhelming..”
someone got involved.
“The language is?”
The answer came quickly.
“According to research, English, Japanese, French, and even sign language. Everything is local level.”
“You’ve heard the pop songs Kang Woo-jin covers, right? If you close your eyes and listen, it's hard to believe she's Korean..”
During a meeting that lasted a short while, a man with an elongated face with the aura of a decision maker spoke..
“Vocals, language, acting, image. And piano. Even recent hot topics. It is judged that there is no deficiency at all..”
Soon, all the dozen foreigners agreed..
“You have to put it on the casting board..”
“The skills we want as core skills for this work are acting, vocals, and piano. I had it all. Even though he lacks language skills, he is still able to give suggestions, and Kang Woo-jin even has excellent language skills..”
In their conversation, 'vocals' and 'piano' were included and emphasized..
“Kang Woo-jin - Confirmed.”
Then, a fat foreigner sitting in the middle of the U-shaped desk suddenly stood up. When I saw that I was holding my cell phone, it looked like I had received a call. He came out into the hallway as quietly as possible so as not to disturb the meeting..
“Yes, it's me. I'm in a production-related meeting, so please keep it short..”
Behind him while he was on the phone, the film company's logo and name were attached to the glass of the conference room door. it was very familiar.
-‘World Disney Pictures’
