I was immediately mistaken as a monster genius actor - Episode 424
424angry joker (2)
Since when was Kang Woo-jin ‘Henry Gordon’? The spacious set was crowded with Columbia Studio executives and officials, with hundreds of foreign staff and Hollywood actors lined up..
-widely!
With the first slate.
“action.”
Ever since director Angabok's first sign sounded to announce the official crank-in, Kang Woo-jin has been 'Henry Gordon'. The first filming of ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’ has begun. Hundreds of eyes and ears were focused on one place. I see Kang Woo-jin fully deployed..
All thoughts are different.
‘As long as you show the same level of tension as you did during the audition and screen test, there is nothing to worry about..’
‘I wonder if the script reading was really a bluff or not.?’
‘Even though it was our first filming, we were as calm as we were back then, and by the way, we gathered a lot. Everyone must have come to judge Kang Woo-jin’s acting. How do I repay you??’
‘I will decide whether what I saw during the reading was ‘adequate’ or the best..’
Although they were saying completely different things because they all had different positions, their intentions ultimately had a similar meaning..
show me your acting.
Next, Kang Woo-jin walked into the artificially created raindrops. Wearing a black hooded zip-up and jeans, he already looked like Henry Gordon. ‘Henry Gordon’ was released into reality. The ‘Henry Gordon’ that spread through all my blood vessels was mixed with ‘Corporal Jin Seon-cheol’. Both the soft guy and the rough guy.
“······”
However, the reins that Kang Woo-jin had been holding on to were now released. In the scenario, there was no emotional build-up at the beginning, just before the awakening of 'Henry Gordon', and although it was a 'tragic' deviation, I was filled with endless joy like 'comedy'..
He was already ‘Henry Gordon’ himself..
In Kang Woo-jin's eyes, he could not see the hundreds of onlookers, numerous cameras, boom microphones overhead, or lighting equipment. Even artificial downpours were real. It was true in the scenario as well, and this one was no different. That's why Woojin just does what he has to do as 'Henry Gordon'..
The shoulders are bent and the posture is grotesque..
It was a cliff edge..
When pushed here, something is born. Woojin was feeling it himself. When you open the door to this pizza place, the person you were until now disappears..
So what should I do??
-Bang bang bang!
Kang Woo-jin carried out his first massacre without any hesitation. With a gooey smile. Additionally, several more gunshots were heard. Next, the camera slowly moves from the front to Woojin’s side. Kang Woo-jin holds a gun in one hand..
“Phew-”
I lifted my head up to the ceiling while taking a deep breath. closed her eyes I feel like I can hear classical music somewhere. No, it was actually ringing. The source was a TV that wasn't turned off. That encouraged Woojin..
‘'Joker' is about to wake up.
As the sound of classical music becomes deeper, the madness that resonates in Kang Woo-jin's heart grows in size..
-Sigh.
He lowers his face from the ceiling. The smile grew several times deeper. Rolled her eyes. A massive piece of meat strewn at your feet, a floor covered in blood and flour, and an interior littered with various objects..
At this time.
-Kugugoogung Palace!
Thunder rumbled again along with heavy rain. Lightning struck and the dark interior of the pizza restaurant lit up. Kang Woo-jin suddenly coughed..
“puetchi!”
It was because of the flour all over my face. He sniffled, threw his gun in his hand and threw it on a nearby table. Everything fell over, but the table was still standing. Woojin’s expression was calm. A face that just exists in this space normally.
-Sigh.
He took a step. Then.
“Hmm!”
It slipped slightly. It was because of the wet blood on the floor. Kang Woo-jin barely managed to maintain his balance by leaning on the forearm of the heavy piece of meat. The camera captured a close-up of his face. My eyes widened slightly. It was a trivial feeling, like a ‘mistake’..
A few light movements make the shape of 'Henry Gordon' more vivid..
However, this was not in the scenario..
‘······Wait, was there such a route? Movements such as coughing and slipping. There wasn't one?’
‘So fucking flexible. I'm taking care of the expression while making use of those details..’
In a way, the dozens of actors from ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’ who came to the scene to prepare.
‘Such actions mixed with a sense of life liven up the picture of madness several times. It's smooth and realistic. No, I haven't watched it for a few minutes, but all I can see is 'Henry Gordon'..’
I was having difficulty holding my breath. Concentration is high. The shade had suddenly stopped assessing Kang Woo-jin's acting. It's closer to purely enjoying it, being sucked into the grip and not being able to think about anything else..
Among such actors, the Hollywood actor who looks at the monitor with his eyes wide open especially stands out..
‘‘Henry Gordon’ at the audition wasn’t the end..’
It was Chris Hartnett. He had attractive brown eyes and had an ambiguous face between laughter and seriousness..
‘You had more than that, right? What on earth is that crazy expression? Every small movement has an impact and the tension never stops. Damn it, what happened to that person?.’
Director Anga Bok, with short white hair and full of wrinkles wearing headphones, has been talking about action ever since he shouted 'action'..
“······”
I was staring at the monitors without saying a word. There is no blinking of an eye and the world is serious. He was determined not to miss a single moment. He was different from the slowly excited Hollywood actors here. No, he was unique among hundreds of foreigners. Everyone experienced Kang Woo-jin through auditions and script readings, but only director Ahn Ga-bok experienced Kang Woo-jin in person..
I knew better than anyone how absurd his acting was..
Therefore, there is no room for shock..
‘Not through the eyes of the audience, but through the eyes of the director..’
Kang Woo-jin's acting catches you if you look away for a moment. The type that devours directors, writers, etc. Director Gabok Ang experienced something like that a few times in ‘Leech’..
‘Anyone can go crazy when they see the character I created running rampant in real life..’
Even though it is based on a scenario, the character Kang Woo-jin embodies is free-spirited. Sometimes you feel frustrated because it goes far beyond the director’s imagination..
‘The same goes for Kang Woo-jin's crazy lifestyle movements, which made the scene volume several times bigger..’
The executive producer, who was standing next to director Ga-bok Ang and watching Woojin's performance on the monitor with his arms crossed, also felt this. She seemed to have a strong impression and laughed..
‘If the writer of ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’ had seen this performance, he would have cried. But are those movements instantaneous? Or did you make it? Anyway, it was the correct answer, what made him the ‘Joker’.’
soon.
“cut.”
Director Gabok Ang stood up and signed. It wasn't NG. To change the composition. At this time, among the hundreds of foreigners gathered behind Director Anga Bok,.
“Phew-”
“her······”
A breathing sound was heard. The murmur also grew louder. 'Columbia Studios' executives were busy having a serious conversation among themselves, and dozens of actors and their staff couldn't take their eyes off the monitor, as if dumbfounded. The production team of ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’ heard exclamations from all over..
Director Anga Bok, who glanced at the foreigners behind him, was amazed and his spirit rose..
‘Yes - Kang Woo-jin's acting creates the same situation in Korea and here..’
‘Because the ‘leech’ times overlapped..
Meanwhile, Kang Woo-jin inside the pizza restaurant on set.
-Sigh.
He was holding out his hand to the heavy actor who was lying on the floor with a serious poker face..
“catch it.”
The heavy actor, covered in blood and flour, held Woojin's hand while holding it..
“Oh, thank you.”
“no. Are you okay??”
“yes.”
I was a little dumbfounded..
‘Isn't the return speed... the switch too fast? It's abnormal, but that's.’
Because the return of emotions was so quick..
After a while.
Dozens of foreign staff rushed into the pizza restaurant set. Because I had to return it to its original state. However, because there were a lot of people involved, it did not take long..
“action.”
Filming soon resumed. Heavy rain pours down again and Kang Woo-jin enters the pizza restaurant. The same scene was repeated at least 5 times..
“Cut, let's make the rain a little harder.”
There were also changes to camera composition, actors' positions, and props and devices. Perhaps because it was the first shoot and first cut, director Ang Bok was very passionate. However, none of the actors, including Kang Woo-jin, complained, and the same was true for the hundreds of foreign production crew members. Because everyone was professional.
About an hour passed like that..
The filming of the first cut of the storyboard has finally been completed. But it doesn't seem like they will be moving anywhere. It was natural. The very next scene also takes place on the set of this pizza restaurant. Although they were fixed in the same spot for about an hour, not a single foreigner, including dozens of Hollywood actors, left..
“The ‘moderate amount’ from the script reading was true..”
“Well, honestly, I didn't think there would be this much of a difference.-”
“But there's something about Kang Woo-jin's acting... It sounds strange, but it doesn't seem like acting. She keeps feeling like she's watching a real-life 'Henry Gordon'.”
“Me too. Even though it's a decent method, the emotional recovery I saw earlier was ridiculous. How many repetitions does it take to achieve that level?.”
At this time, Kang Woo-jin was talking with director Ahn Ga-bok inside the pizza restaurant. It was related to the next scene and a heavy Hollywood actor was also present..
“Woojin, you can continue to act as comfortably as you want. Is there anything you need??”
Kang Woo-jin looked down at the floor and calmly answered the question..
“I wish there was a little more flour on the bottom.”
“flour?”
“yes.”
“That's right.”
After more flour was sprinkled on the floor, Director Ang Bok and his staff escaped. Soon, only Kang Woo-jin, the heavy actor, and the cameras remained inside the pizza restaurant. A few minutes later, director Anga Bok, sitting in a place where hundreds of foreigners lined up, gave the sign again..
“action.”
A heavy actor. No, the pizza restaurant owner had already turned into a piece of meat lying on the floor. Kang Woo-jin or ‘Henry Gordon’ crossed over a piece of meat. The camera followed. I turned up the volume on the TV on the table in front of the kitchen..
-♬♪
The classical music playing was twice as loud. The heavy rain and thunder outside was almost overwhelming. Kang Woo-jin raised both hands. I brushed his wet hair down to his chin. Her face was white with flour all over it. Blood was splattered everywhere. The camera captured Woojin from the front. He took a deep breath..
“Seup - Paha.”
I'm smiling. The corner of her mouth hanging over her ear won't lower..
Soon, Kang Woo-jin.
-Sigh.
started dancing. Surrender yourself to the sound of classical music. It was just a dance. They may gently ride a wave, suddenly stand up and glide forward, or spin around in their seat. On the way, I jumped over the heavy pieces of meat on the floor several times..
I accidentally kicked a piece of meat.
That can happen when you dance.?
Kang Woo-jin, who was gradually turning into a clown, looked down at the piece of meat and briefly apologized..
“sorry.”
He falls in love with classical music again.
At the same time, joy came out of my mouth..
“Kkkkkk! Ha ha ha ha ha!”
This is it. This is how I feel. A sense of liberation spread throughout Kang Woo-jin’s body. The sight of a hideous clown with a pale face dancing to classical music.
-♬♪
It was beyond bizarre. All of this is vividly captured on camera. Either way, Woojin, who was shaking his body, suddenly stopped dancing. Because I found something I had just stepped on..
“oh-”
Cards scattered everywhere along with broken beer bottles. Among them, Kang Woo-jin picks up a card covered in blood. The card depicts a ‘clown’ with a mischievous expression..
I also saw the writing.
-‘JOKER)’
Kang Woo-jin, who looked down at the card for a moment, smiled and said..
“‘'JOKER', it's good?”
According to the scenario, this was the end of the scene. Therefore, Chris and the dozens of actors watching the monitor tried to let out the breath they had been holding, and similarly, director Ang Bok watched for a moment and then tried to shout the 'cut' sign..
but.
“hmm?”
The scene ended, but Kang Woo-jin on the monitor did not stop. In response, Chris Hartnett and the actors narrowed their eyebrows or tilted their heads..
‘what?’
‘Was there more movement? It's not. what?’
‘What on earth are you going to do?.’
Director Ahn Ga-bok also had the same feeling..
“······”
I watch. On the monitor, Kang Woo-jin roughly wiped the blood on the card with his hand. The ‘clown’ in the card has become clearer. Then he moves his remaining hand. Touching your own cheek. flour. Kang Woo-jin, as something flashed, raised his head. He found a small, square mirror on the wall..
It wasn't a match. Because it's half broken.
However, it clearly reflected Kang Woo-jin’s face. He slowly approached the mirror. The camera follows the side. Woojin, who was right in front of the mirror, looked at the card in his hand..
“hmm.”
I looked at my face again in the mirror. It was similar. The ‘clown’ appearance in the ‘JOKER’ card and who you are now. However, it was a little lacking. Kang Woo-jin picked up a handful of flour scattered on a nearby table and rubbed it on his face. It turned several times more white..
And then.
-Sigh.
I looked around the floor again.
“That should be enough.”
I approached the heavy piece of meat lying on the floor. One hand was covered in blood that flowed from the piece of meat. Then return to the mirror again. Woojin, who was looking in the mirror, stopped for a few seconds and suddenly turned his face to the camera right next to him. From here on, I will act using the camera as a mirror..
The fact that it stopped in front of the mirror just before was given an editing point..
“From the eyebrows-”
Woojin, full of smiles, used the 'clown' from the 'JOKER' card as a model and drew his eyebrows with the blood on his remaining hand. Red eyebrows appeared on the pale face. Next, I filled in the area around both eyes and put a fairly large red dot on the tip of the nose..
“Not enough.”
There wasn't enough blood. Kang Woo-jin, who had replenished the blood on the floor, stood in front of the camera again..
-Zech.
He put his blood-covered palm to his mouth. Red was all around the mouth. It is not complete. Kang Woo-jin draws a shape with both index fingers. Before you know it, the grotesque thick mouth shape of a bright smile has been completed..
Blood on my pale face.
Kang Woo-jin checked the ‘clown’ on the card in his hand..
“Hehe, it's the same.”
Woojin, who completed the 'JOKER' face with blood, raised his head and looked at the camera in front of him. He stuffed the card in his hand into his hoodie pocket. Immediately, both index fingers were attached to the tip of the drawn red lips..
And then the world smiled brightly.
“It's fantastic.”
A tear slipped from his eye..
Among the countless foreigners who are watching all of this through their monitors, the mind of Chris Hartnett with his mouth wide open is.
“······the trophy is his.”
‘The ‘Academy Awards’ was glimmering..
