I was immediately mistaken as a monster genius actor - Episode 227
Han Ye-jeong's cell phone screen. No, to be more precise, Choi Seong-geon's head became complicated in the YouTube video displayed on the screen..
-【Exclusive scoop!!】Kang Woo-jin, the sensational actor!! He has already secretly received a screen test for a Hollywood movie?! Entering Hollywood is just around the corner! (Conclusive evidence obtained!)｜Fact Guys
-410,000 views
It's been uploaded for an hour, but the number of views has already exceeded 400,000. Why is this? How on earth did it pop up? Both Kang Woo-jin and Choi Seong-geon had forgotten about this matter. However, it was suddenly revealed to the surface. At this time, Han Ye-jeong asked her in her characteristic cold tone..
“This is just a joke?”
For your information, very few people knew about the 'Last Kill 3' screen test. At best, it would be about Kang Woo-jin, Choi Seong-geon, and the two interpreters who accompanied us at the time. Most of Han Ye-jeong and Woo-jin's team were unaware of this fact..
It was kept secret anyway and it was a good thing at the time that few people knew about it..
“······”
Whatever it was, Seong-geon Choi didn't respond in particular, so he took out his cell phone and accessed YouTube. Of course, what I was searching for was the video I just watched. The channel size of the YouTuber who uploaded it was also significant. Has 1.95 million subscribers. As I watched the videos, there was a strong feeling of jumbled fish. It seems like they upload news containing issues, incidents, accusations, etc., or anything that might attract attention..
Although the video upload period was not long, the number of views for each video was very high. 500,000 to 1 million is the default.
soon.
-Sigh.
Choi Seong-gun touched the playback of the Kang Woo-jin video uploaded an hour ago with a serious face. The video naturally played on his cell phone, and Han Ye-jeong chanted again..
“But it's a bit strange for a joke..”
“what.”
“Should I say the content is a bit detailed? In addition, a photo of Woojin oppa at a production company in LA was also included. Because it doesn't look like synthetic.”
It actually did. The video started with a photo of Woojin inside a Hollywood production company. It was a bonus that there were many foreign staff. Below it, there is a subtitle that reads ‘Winner Movie Pictures.’ Then the screen changed and a man wearing a wolf mask made a comment..
[“We exclusively learned that actor Kang Woo-jin, who took the Korean entertainment industry by storm just one year after his debut, even conducted a screen test for a Hollywood movie. According to the information obtained, it appears that Kang Woo-jin did not make the first move, but rather a Hollywood film official contacted Kang Woo-jin..”]
Choi Seong-gun, who was watching the video,.
‘Huh, it looks like you really got some information.?’
I decided that this YouTuber didn't just film the video with his wild imagination..
[“‘Winner Movie Pictures’, the film company that Woojin Kang contacted, is a medium-sized company or larger in Hollywood. It's a rough place for many Hollywood stars, and they're currently filming several projects. The 'screen test' mentioned in the video is similar to an audition, but has a slightly different nature. The road to this screen test is very difficult in Hollywood as it is the process before formal casting..”]
[“There are many famous top Korean actors who have taken on the challenge of Hollywood. But they all fail the screen test and return. The number of top actors from Korea who have entered Hollywood is rare. However, Kang Woo-jin has received direct contact from Hollywood, and judging by the fact that he has completed the screen test, it appears that his entry into Hollywood is imminent. This is the first time for an actor with only one year of experience, and the situation is almost ridiculous..”]
Later, this YouTuber called ‘Fact Guys’ added that the reason Kang Woo-jin hasn’t made an announcement yet is that he may be keeping his advance into Hollywood a secret or may have turned it down due to his intense schedule. However, he did not seem to know the title of the movie 'Last Kill 3'. Still, it was clear that most of the comments were based on facts rather than speculation..
I was crazy about comments.
-Wow, I'm going crazy.
-Wow....Realtruim?? So, is Kang Woo-jin really in Hollywood just one year after his debut? Hahahahahahaha
-dog sound 100%
-Doesn't the evidence seem a bit lacking to be considered a joke? Anyone who looks at that photo can tell it’s Hollywood lol.
-Wow!!!Hollywood!! Kang Woo-jin Wolcle!!! Gukbong gauge is full!!!
-The sound of bitterness is like this... If you buy a movie from Winner Movie, they are mid-level even in Hollywood.????
-ㄷㄷㄷ Kang Woo-jin is really in form.

In addition to the commonly called 'gukppong', the overall reaction is close to cheering. Of course, there are quite a few comments asking if it makes sense. Anyway, Choi Seong-geon quickly accessed the portal site and checked to see if any articles related to the video had appeared..
‘Not yet?’
Perhaps because the video was uploaded not long ago, there were no articles that stood out right away. But it was only a matter of time. It was Kang Woo-jin's scoop, not any other actor..
It was obvious that this news would quickly turn the country upside down..
Around that time.
“CEO.”
Han Ye-jeong asked Choi Seong-gun again..
“There's a problem?”
It wasn't noticeable, but I was worried. Choi Seong-geon, who was scratching his tail slightly, lowered his cell phone and responded..
“no. There's no problem. Regardless of whether this video is true or not, it honestly benefits Woojin..”
It was referring to the increase in the brand value of Kang Woo-jin. Woojin was already living with ultra-level issues, and there were many big names around him. Meanwhile, if it is related to Hollywood, the current aura will be doubled..
‘It might be annoying if we leaked it, but we're innocent.?’
There was no way that calm Kang Woo-jin would have done something like this. Choi Seong-geon then gave instructions to Han Ye-jeong. Tell the teams to keep quiet about this video. Even though I didn't know anything, I was told not to say anything to the outside world. Of course, Choi Seong-gun, who immediately called BW Entertainment, said something similar..
bw enter just shut your mouth.
At this time, Choi Seong-geon's cell phone began to emit a long vibration. He was the editor-in-chief of a media company. Slowly, the domestic media caught wind of it. However, Woojin, who ignored the phone call, walked past the busy 'Unfamiliar' staff and entered the tent where the main actors were gathered. The number of actors who arrived increased in a short period of time..
Woojin was talking briefly with them with a silent expression..
“Woojin.”
Choi Seong-gun, who had called Kang Woo-jin in a whisper, motioned for him to come out. Woojin indifferently followed the CEO and asked lowly..
“What's going on??”
After taking a few steps away from the tent, Seong-geon Choi looked around and showed his cell phone to Woo-jin..
“First, watch this video.”
After a while.
While dozens of 'unfamiliar' staff members were running around the school playground, Kang Woo-jin, who was standing at the end of the large tent set up in succession, took down Choi Seong-geon's cell phone..
He also watched the ‘Fact Guys’ video to the end..
Of course, I also checked the comments. Woojin's expression as he returned the cell phone to Choi Seong-gun was cynical. But inside I was quite surprised.
‘What is this? How did this YouTuber know this?? I've never talked about where I went. So what did that Hollywood production company spread? It's a top secret?’
No, it's closer to absurdity. During the screen test, there was a lot of fuss telling me to keep quiet like that. Here, Woojin asked Choi Seong-geon of the long padding in front of him..
“Could this be the representative?.”
“Not me. Neither will you.”
“Is that so?”
If not both, where is the source? Then what does it matter to Kang Woo-jin? She turned around with the same sentiment. She was not a concept vagina. This was Kang Woo-jin’s original self. Cuteness has been triggered.
“Then you don't have to worry too much, right??”
“Ah, well, that's right. I'm just trying to understand the context..”
“If it's not us, it's the Hollywood studio..”
“‘‘Winner Movie Pictures’? You won't gain anything... but aren't you too peaceful? When you say that, even I feel cold..”
“If there is no problem, just ignore it..”
“Okay, okay. An hour instead? Maybe sooner. Korea is going to make a huge fuss over this..”
“It doesn't matter.”
What is it? I already finished ‘Last Kill 3’ anyway. As Woojin spent her time in the entertainment industry, she realized one thing related to the media. There was no point in responding, so silence was the answer..
It was then.
‘Eh?’
‘Among the ‘Strange Stranger’ staff, Kang Woo-jin caught the eye of a group of foreigners standing on one side of the playground. To be clear, she was the one among them with short brown hair. Because she was definitely a woman I knew. Soon, Woojin lifted her index finger and took a picture of her..
“that girl-”
Choi Seong-gun, whom I had already thought of seeing somewhere, immediately agreed..
“uh. I saw it today and it suddenly appeared. I also saw this face somewhere before... Do you know it??”
“‘It was during the ‘Last Kill 3’ screen test..”
“ah.”
“You said you were a casting director. I remember him talking to me at the end of the test..”
For a moment, a light bulb went on in Choi Seong-geon’s head..
“That's right. I saw it there. To be exact, it would be a caddy from ‘Winner Movie Pictures’. I answered the phone, but I only saw your face for a moment so my memory is vague..”
“But why is that woman here??”
“I wonder. Why do people in Hollywood go all the way to Japan - but is it a coincidence that they were here when the video you saw for the screen test appeared?.”
Is it strange? Coincidentally, don’t the lower legs fit too tightly? Woojin muttered to himself, looked at the group of foreigners, and then suddenly took a step. He heard Choi Seong-gun asking where he was going from behind, but Kang Woo-jin's feet didn't stop..
Well, right? In times like this, it's best to just ask outright. Long strides. In vulgar terms, quick steps.
This was also Kang Woo-jin's appearance rather than a strong appearance..
like that.
-Sigh.
Kang Woo-jin with a poker face passed dozens of staff and arrived in front of a group of foreigners, and a group of foreigners who felt popular spotted Woo-jin standing close by. She looked almost surprised, but she was a foreign woman with short brown hair. No, caddy Megan Stone showed a relaxed smile..
“Oh, Kang Woo-jin? nice to meet you. I knew you were here, but I wasn't quick to say hello..”
Woojin also greeted the English spit out indifferently..
“hello.”
Soon, the 'unfamiliar' staff around him glanced at Kang Woo-jin. Seeing that, Megan Stone approached Woojin a little and spoke lowly..
“I don't want anyone to know about our relationship. Why don't we talk about it later??”
“You are the one who came here.”
“Yes. I have a connection with the director here. I came to Japan for work and while I was here, I visited the director's set once. Of course, I knew Woojin was there..”
okay? Well, that's it. Her Woojin picked up her cell phone and showed it to her..
“This is a video that just appeared on YouTube in Korea..”
And then he explained in a low tone.
“It contains information about what I saw in the screen test for 'Last Kill 3'. Did you tell them about it? I heard it was confidential.”
The eyes of foreigners around me suddenly widened as they listened to my fluent English. Especially Megan Stone..
“······This video is making it known?”
“yes.”
“Well, it can't be.”
“Isn’t that one too??”
“No, not at all.”
Megan Stone, clearly embarrassed, was talking to her team members and then made a phone call somewhere. Something seems a bit urgent. Well, Woojin looked at her silently, thinking that everything was okay, and then turned her body around. Choi Seong-geon was standing a few steps behind..
“what.”
Kang Woo-jin’s answer was low and simple..
“I think you can just ignore it..”
Around here, L.A..
It was morning in Japan, but it was afternoon here. The location is Hollywood, LA. Among them, it is a place where there is a large film studio. It was huge, more like an amusement park than a movie studio. Because not only the company but also a huge set was built inside..
There is a black van standing at the entrance of the film studio..
Then, a man who passed through the entrance catches the eye. Black and tall, almost like a giant. Solid body. It was Joseph Felton, a famous Hollywood producer. When he finished his work, he got into the waiting van..
Car leaving immediately.
There were about four or five people inside the van, and a bald foreigner who was Joseph's subordinate reported to Joseph Felton, who was holding a tablet..
“Joseph, a video of Kang Woo-jin has appeared in Korea. about 1 hour ago.”
Joseph smiled slightly and nodded..
“It's later than expected, but the timing isn't bad. contents is?”
“I'll definitely have to translate it, but it includes most of the information we sent. By the way - Joseph. Is it okay to do this??”
“what?”
“I heard it was a top secret matter..”
Joseph chuckles..
“There are no secrets in Hollywood. It's just a time difference. Use or be used.”
“······”
“An actor was cast, and the screen test was carefully reviewed. Well, that's not even top secret. Even now, it explodes from time to time. It's just that director George Mendes and 'Last Kill 3' were so proud that they made such a fuss. But as a producer, I thought it would be more beneficial to reveal the matter..”
“What are the benefits??”
Joseph, with his arms crossed, answered simply:.
“Korea is a cultural powerhouse that cannot be ignored. There is even talk of making a Hollywood movie in Korea first. By raising awareness of ‘Last Kill 3’, they also gained the prestige of Kang Woo-jin. Because this is useful for raising the price..”
The bald-headed foreigner who was listening to the explanation scratched his chin..
“Kang Woo-jin - Why are you taking so much care of it??”
Joseph Felton shrugged..
“Preparation for meeting him again.”
I picked up the tablet again and muttered..
“Just in case, we are preparing a route to Hollywood in advance..”
Around early lunch on the same day, back to Japan.
It takes a very long time for the ‘Stranger’ filming team, which has taken root in a high school, to prepare. There was a problem with the filming team's equipment in the beginning, and now director Kyotaro's directing has taken a little longer. Thanks to this, there was a delay of about an hour..
Anyway, Director Kyotaro went around each filming location, called in the necessary actors, and conducted preliminary rehearsals..
Dialogue, movement, directing, camera composition, etc..
However, since this was the first time Kang Woo-jin was called, he was currently sitting alone in the tent. All I had to do was put it on as soon as standby came up..
“hmm-”
Woojin was watching the media situation in Korea on his cell phone with his legs crossed..
‘As expected, the article is rubbish. If I get too greedy, will I get angry? Oh my - trash. I'm excited?’
As expected, the reporters who discovered Kang Woo-jin's entry into Hollywood were excitedly publishing articles, and numerous calls were arriving on Woo-jin's cell phone. On the other hand, one side was still quiet. Megan Stone, the caddy we saw earlier, looked like she was leaving after talking with Seong-gun Choi, but she stayed behind at the scene..
Well, it's up to you whether you go or not..
Woojin stopped thinking and put down his cell phone, which was noisy even in the group chat room. The tent was a bit quiet without all the actors. Since there is no one around, he lets go of his thoughts for a moment and yawns..
Following.
‘Hmm - I guess I'll have to suck some honey in the subspace..’
Kang Woo-jin picks up the ‘Unfamiliar Parasite’ scenario on the desk next to him. Of course, it was to stab the black square attached to the scenario..
-deeply.
The subspace I entered to rest was, as always, endless darkness. However, for Kang Woo-jin, it is no different from home. Soon, Woojin stretched out and walked toward the place where the white squares were listed. I was wondering if anything had changed in my grade before taking a break..
Luckily it stayed the same.
Woojin, who had been looking at the works and grades written on the white square for a moment, suddenly lay down. I can't sleep, but I can rest. Woojin, lying down in subspace, falls into meditation. Naturally, I thought of roles in works that had already been filmed that I needed to film. From ‘crime bureau’ to today’s ‘unfamiliar parasites’ or ‘leeches’, etc..
Then suddenly.
“Hmm - I wonder if it's possible to mix the imprinted roles together.?”
Kang Woo-jin muttered to himself without thinking. It started from simple curiosity. Rather than living in a world of roles, what would it be like if the roles were purely combined??
Will I look like a total idiot??
It was at this time. Suddenly, a robotic-like female voice spread out..
[“Acquire an understanding of role composition”]
