I was immediately mistaken as a monster genius actor - Episode 429
429angry joker (7)
Kang Woo-jin is looking somewhere indifferently. Choi Seong-geon, who didn't notice his gaze, asked again while tying his ponytail again..
“If it's bothersome for one reason or another, wouldn't it be okay to just leave it all to Jeongyeo??”
“······”
“Yeah, that would be better. You're so busy acting, why did you choose a tuxedo or suit, decide on the color, and sit down? Starting with the brand and everything including the design, I'll leave it all to the planning and style team..”
Choi Seong-gun took out a bottle of bottled water from the refrigerator in the trailer and handed it to Kang Woo-jin..
“I asked you to decide on the design of the tuxedo, such as Kahn, Blue Dragon, etc., because you seem to care a bit, but considering your schedule, I think it's a bit unreasonable. I'll tell you separately, so don't worry about it and just focus on filming..”
Choi Seong-gun seems to have finished what he wanted to say and is about to leave the trailer. Woojin's low voice was heard behind him..
“CEO, how about something other than something ordinary or boring?.”
Choi Seong-geon stopped and turned his head to ask a question..
“Ordinary or boring? Are you talking about a tuxedo or a suit? Well, you can see it that way because everyone wears it. But what else is there? Could it be that we should design and make it by hand? Seup, it's not bad, but I don't know if I'll have time..”
“no. It's not like that..”
Woojin, who cynically denied it, made eye contact with Choi Seong-gun. The expression became colder. The concept was deepened. However, he was imagining a pretty interesting picture inside..
‘Wow, that's right. It should be this much fun.’
But it wasn't expressed outwardly. It just shows how much stronger Choi Seong-gun is..
“President, for me, the ‘Emmy Awards’ is like a stopping point..”
“······By the way, a stopover? Woojin, that ‘Emmy Award’? It is called the ‘Academy Award’ of the broadcasting world. In terms of authority and prestige, it is not inferior at all. Of course, the ultimate winner is the Academy Award.-”
As Seong-geon Choi was speaking, this thought occurred to him. Yes, Woojin treats Cannes as a stepping stone, but is it strange that he thinks of the ‘Emmy Awards’ as a waypoint??
‘No, it's not strange at all.’
It was like that. The last boss-like ‘Academy Award’ was Woojin, who spoke in a boring manner. Wouldn't the 'Emmy Awards', which are almost similar to that, be amazing? Of course, if actors in Korea, Hollywood, or in general hear it, they will be shocked. There would be no one who had the same thoughts as Kang Woo-jin..
‘But the opponent is Kang Woo-jin.’
Choi Seong-geon broke away from the common-sense idea of goodness. And I answered Woojin.
“Yeah, yeah. ‘Emmy Awards’ is a stopover. Roughly- I understand..”
Kang Woo-jin, who was nothing special, roughly swept his black hair and continued speaking..
“To me, it's like the Cannes or Emmy Awards. But the surroundings and the world don't see it that way..”
“Of course, the first invitation was also an invitation, and you were nominated in 10 categories. There will be a lot of attention..”
“Yes, that creates a gap. What I think and what the world thinks of the ‘Emmy Awards’’.”
“······”
“Being boring is no fun.”
“boring? ‘Emmy Award’?”
“yes. It's kind of boring. Anyway, that's why I thought about it differently..”
Choi Seong-gun swallows his saliva. Something absolutely out of the ordinary will pour out of that guy’s mouth. Soon, Woojin slowly moved his feet and walked towards the hanger..
“performance. It might be helpful for 'Clierot: Birth of a Villain' and I might also have some fun..”
“uh?”
Kang Woo-jin reached out and picked up ‘Joker’s’ red jacket..
“Coincidentally, the costumes of ‘Joker’ are also formal. The colors look a bit crazy though.”
“······a little?”
Choi Seong-gun, who was quietly watching Kang Woo-jin, quickly noticed..
“You - no way.”
However, Kang Woo-jin’s answer was quick..
“‘Joker’ walks the red carpet, I want to be in a unique position.”
Choi Seong-geon, whose mouth naturally opened, was stunned for a moment. Then, he suddenly came to his senses..
“Well, that is. I will go to the 'Emmy Awards' for 'Joker'?”
“Is it strange??”
“It's not strange-”
Wait, no. Choi Seong-geon, who was shocked, immediately calmed down. ‘Joker’ at the ‘Emmy Awards’? Even if I thought about it for just a moment, it was obvious that a scary spotlight would fall on Woojin..
‘‘Of course, being helpful in 'Clierrot: Birth of a Villain' is just publicity, because if the 'Emmy Award' Best Actor candidate shows up wearing a crazy 'clown' outfit, curiosity will explode..’
That wasn't all.
‘Even if Woojin doesn't win the Best Actor Award, the star of the day will 100% be Joker..’
‘The day after the Emmy Awards, there will be many times more stories about Kang Woo-jin than about the actor who won Best Actor..
Choi Seong-geon suddenly smiled and asked back..
“It sure sounds fun. So are you planning on putting on makeup??”
The calm Kang Woo-jin shook his head..
“No, just the clothes and hair will suffice..”
“yes.”
finished.
“Of course, since you are the director, you have to get permission from Columbia Studios..”
Korea a few hours later.
It was past lunch in LA, but in Korea it was early morning, a day later. The time is around 5 o'clock. Very early. However, the lights in the large editing room with numerous monitors at DM Productions in Seoul were brightly lit..
It felt like there was no night here..
When I looked inside the editing room, which had a slightly smoky atmosphere, I saw about five people. All five of them had dark spots around their eyes, as if they had stayed up all night for several days, and their entire faces were full of fatigue. Among them, the man sitting in the center of the editing machine, with a thicker beard, especially stands out..
It was producer Song Man-woo..
I am dedicating my life to editing Part 2 of ‘Beneficial Evil’. The post-production work on 'Beneficial Evil' Part 2, which finished filming in early June, was already in its third week, and the scheduled launch was in September, so producer Song Man-woo had no choice but to add vitality this time..
“······There was just a cut and a full shot.?”
“yes.”
“Let's look at it that way..”
There was very little conversation. Producer Song Man-woo was just busy moving his fingers while looking at Kang Woo-jin on the monitor..
“No, the bust is better as expected.”
“I think so too.”
“Phew - I'm going around, it's rather tight because the pictures don't have anything to throw away..”
“···In some ways, Woojin's crazy acting is a bit painful for the director..”
“It's a happy pain.”
However, the work was a bit slow. It wasn't like the usual drama giant producer Song Man-woo. Even though he has been in this field for decades, this is the first time he has created such a world-class work..
burden.
As the interest from overseas is pouring in like a nuclear bomb, I have more thoughts and more concerns. In addition, Kang Woo-jin's jaw-dropping acting in every composition helps PD Song Man-woo's agony..
‘This is the first time in my life that editing was this intense..’
Then, bearded producer Song Man-woo suddenly thought that Kang Woo-jin on the monitor was amazing..
‘I, too, am obsessed with one piece of work, but all of that guy's works have been huge hits. How can there be no burden at all?.’
No matter how 'strong totem' it was, it was an extremely absurd move. Producer Song Man-woo, who recalled Woo-jin's face for a moment,.
“······Also go to Bust.”
I focused on editing again.
So a few hours later.
“Phew - let's hang up here for a moment and get some rest, everyone go and get some sleep..”
Around 9 a.m., producer Song Man-woo stopped editing for a moment and sent the dying edited articles to the break room. However, producer Song Man-woo still remained in the editing room and continued his work..
-Crackling, crackling.
At this time.
-smart.
A knocking sound spread throughout the editing room. Producer Song Man-woo, slightly flinching, opened the editing room door, and in front of him was a familiar woman holding a paper bag from a Japanese restaurant..
“PD, let’s have breakfast together..”
It was General Director Kim So-hyang, who had her hair tied in one line..
“Is the sushi okay??”
“What's happening again, what's going on this morning?.”
“Because I knew you were overdoing it. There's nothing I can do for you, but I need to at least bring you breakfast..”
“Haha, whatever..”
“I also have something to convey..”
“What to convey?”
“Anyway, I'm going to gather together writer Choi, Key Staff, and everyone else for a briefing, but before that, I'd like to let the PD know in advance..”
“yes.”
Kim So-hyang, who was moving to PD Song Man-woo's room, continued speaking..
“‘The departure date for ‘Emmy Awards’ has been set, leaving on July 20th. You know the place, right? Where the ‘Emmy Awards’ are held every year. LA's Wycrosoft Theater’.”
7Departure on the 20th of May. That means there's less than a month left..
“Well, it's just around the corner..”
this moment.
-♬♪
Producer Song Man-woo’s cell phone rang. He was surprised when he casually checked the caller..
“what?”
Sohyang Kim asked,.
“Why are you doing this? Who is switching??”
Producer Song Man-woo, who was looking at his cell phone, responded..
“It's Woojin.?”
It was a call from Kang Woo-jin, who would be in LA..
One day later, on the night of the 21st. L.A..
After filming ended today, several people gathered near Woojin's trailer for some reason. The general director, Director Gabok Ang, the general producer, Nora Foster, and two key staff members. And even Choi Seong-geon. Kang Woo-jin was nowhere to be seen. They're probably in the middle of removing their makeup right now..
Anyway, Seong-geon Choi told everyone with his eyes on Director Ga-bok Ahn. Of course it was in English.
“It's Woojin's idea, but he wants to wear the 'Joker' costume to the upcoming 'Emmy Awards'.”
Soon, starting with director Gabok Ang..
“hmm? what?”
Nora Foster and all of Keystab's eyes widened..
“······‘'Joker' costume for the 'Emmy Awards'??”
“Did I hear wrong? Why do you wear a 'Joker' costume there? It's the 'Emmy Awards', 'Emmy Awards'’.”
“Yes, Kang Woo-jin said that himself.?”
In particular, Nora's reaction is the biggest. After being out of her mind for a moment, she suddenly regained strength in her voice..
“Well, what kind of nonsense is that? Why on earth is the 'Joker' costume shown at the 'Emmy Awards'??!”
“for a moment.”
It was director Ang Ga-bok who cut her off..
“Representative Choi. First, let’s hear what Woojin thinks..”
He was equally surprised, but there was no way Kang Woo-jin, who I had seen so far, would do this without even thinking. Soon, the atmosphere managed to calm down. In the meantime, Choi Seong-geon relayed what Kang Woo-jin said he heard yesterday morning. In one way or another, Choi Seong-geon added some flesh, but the main point was one thing..
Kang Woo-jin wants to march at the 'Emmy Awards' as 'Joker'.
After hearing the explanation, director Gabok Ang swept his wrinkled cheeks..
“‘Joker’ appears on the prestigious ‘Emmy Awards’ red carpet..”
Choi Seong-geon added a word to Director Ahn Ga-bok, who was muttering softly to himself..
“Of course, I'm not going to be the 'Joker' throughout the 'Emmy Awards'. Woojin says that just walking on the red carpet is enough. The makeup isn't everything, just the hair..”
After that, they said they would change into a separately prepared tuxedo. The key staff was quiet, probably imagining the 'Emmy Awards' red carpet. Director Gabok Ang then recited the analysis that came to mind..
“······‘It starts with ‘Joker’ and turns into Kang Woo-jin. It feels like the core content of ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’ has been brought to life. Like ‘Henry Gordon’ and ‘Joker’.”
Oh, I see! Choi Seong-geon heard Director Ahn Ga-bok's words and recognized them..
‘Woojin wasn't just for fun, he was also thinking about the core of 'Cierrot: Birth of a Villain'..’
It wasn't at all.
Kang Woo-jin's conclusion was focused only on fun..
A gap illusion occurred, and from the mouth of director Anga Bok,.
“Perhaps Woojin’s intentions are the same. Otherwise, there's no way I'd think such a foolish thing..”
It spread around.
“Of course, you must have thought about the issue as well. It will hog all the attention beyond the nuclear bomb. The global prestige of Woojin County is great.. ”
For a moment, Director Ang Bok smiled..
‘'Joker' appeared at the Emmy Awards worldwide, including in Hollywood. Where else in the world can you find a teaser or trailer like this??‘
The promotional power will be incredible. At this time, Nora, who had a strong impression, joined in..
“I am of the opposite opinion. In 'Clierrot: Birth of a Villain', 'Joker' is the core character and the first character and villain in the 'Cinematic Universe'. You're in charge of the beginning of a huge plan, and you're spoiling the character so briefly? What a crazy idea..”
It was at this time.
“These days, if you hide it, your explosive power dies..”
Suddenly, a low-pitched male voice joined in. Thanks to this, everyone turned their heads. Kang Woo-jin, wearing a hat tightly pressed down, was walking nonchalantly. He said it again.
“Rather, showing a little bit would be more destructive..”
