I was immediately mistaken as a monster genius actor - Episode 281
‘Episode 1 of ‘Male Friend: Remake’ lasted approximately 20 minutes. The content includes the appearance of the male lead ‘Sengoku Tooru’ and the female lead Kyoko Enma, a brief explanation of ‘Sengoku Tooru’s’ personality and high school background, appropriate appearances by the supporting characters, and even the start of the actual incident..
In addition, the past and piano performance of 'Sengoku Tooru' will be added to the completed version in the future..
In other words, most of the content of episode 1 of ‘Male Friend: Remake’ is devoted to the male lead, ‘Sengoku Tooru’. That means there are a lot of lines. There was quite a lot of Namjoo's self-talk along the way, like fingerprints..
But Kang Woo-jin.
‘Oh - the quality of the animation is good?? I'm tired of drawing. This animation production company is so big, but there’s a reason for it all..’
While doing the male lead's voice, I was relaxed enough to watch the animation displayed on the monitor. It was easier than I thought. What can I say, maybe it's because I don't have to move my body like I do in acting. Of course, you have to put a lot of effort into your voice, but it wasn't difficult for Woojin, who already had 'Sengoku Tooru'..
When Sengoku Tooru is pulled up, Woojin's surroundings become animated..
The scenery of this reading area disappears..
The subspace, a fraudulent item, was the same in the voice actor version as well. No, in terms of difficulty, voice acting is several times easier. So how long can Kang Woo-jin fly??
The shocked look in the voice actors' and director's eyes as they watched Woojin in Cheongsanyusoo was not strange at all..
‘How can a kiss be so perfect?! I'm sure this is my first time as a voice actor.??!’
‘Even if you write down the time sheet in the script... it's natural to make mistakes. Why is it never wrong? Even veterans can't do that much.??’
even.
‘It's not just about stringing together lines. There is enough emotion, while controlling the pitch and stress of the tone.······’
Kang Woo-jin, who was acting for the first time as a voice actor, showed rich emotions and even controlled the tone accurately. She even made Asami Saya's eyes widen..
‘practice? No, it's not something that can be achieved with practice alone..’
The mistakes were made more by Japanese voice actors..
The atmosphere at the reading center quickly became heated. Exclamation marks and question marks abounded among the more than 50 people. Be that as it may, Kang Woo-jin does his job calmly..
like that.
“······Cut. Okay, let's take a break..”
2After finishing reading the episode, the director declared break time. But all the voice actors were steadfast. I was so shocked that I froze. This was the same for 'A10 Studio' executives and employees. The only female team leader in the planning department who was in charge of the process was responsible for the accident..
‘oh my god. Since you're a good actor, I thought you'd be able to cover it to some extent... but there were no mistakes at all.?’
Then, she heard about the commotion that had happened earlier through an employee..
“what? That happened?”
She looks embarrassed. Well, similar cases are common in the entertainment industry, but I guess I had no idea that something like this would break out so openly. Therefore, the female team leader accompanied by her employees bowed to the silent Kang Woo-jin..
“Sorry, Woojin Kang..”
Honestly, it didn't matter to her that she lost a few casted voice actors..
“I should have paid more attention. I will send a separate warning to the voice actors and apologize again..”
However, Kang Woo-jin being dropped was such a big problem that the production of ‘Boyfriend: Remake’ was halted. No, it's close to a disaster. From the beginning, the male lead character, 'Sengoku Tooru', was modeled after Kang Woo-jin, and Kang Woo-jin was the key in everything from publicity, marketing, and numerous issues..
In other words, he was the main dealer regarding viewership ratings..
That's why 'A10 Studio' shouldn't have offended Kang Woo-jin..
On the other hand, Woojin.
“It's okay, I already forgot everything..”
I shook my head casually..
‘I received a lot of apologies today, wow - it actually puts more pressure on me.?’
In fact, the situation from earlier was almost diluted. At this point, the female team leader looked at the indifferent Woojin and suddenly whispered..
“But Woojin, even if you had made that bet, you would have easily won.?”
“Is that so?”
It was a natural result.
“How on earth are you even capable of being a voice actor? No, you're perfect.?”
backwards.
Shockingly, it was around early afternoon when the script reading for ‘Boyfriend: Remake’ ended. Even as the voice actors left, they clearly recognized Woojin while looking at him..
If you do this wrong, it will work..
Indeed, a skill worthy of being declared a Nopaku. It wasn't a question of why that Korean actor had perfect posture as a voice actor or whether it was possible. Professionals who make a living as voice actors are losing out. Anyway, the voice actors quickly left the reading room and Kang Woo-jin remained..
Because there are still recordings of piano, OST, etc..
It was almost midnight when Kang Woo-jin finished his schedule for today and returned to the hotel. It was a tight schedule all day, but the first person to meet Kang Woo-jin, who survived thanks to subspace, was ponytail Choi Seong-geon..
“Dude, you flipped the reading room again? I heard it from the kids.”
Choi Seong-gun, who met Woojin in the hotel lobby, was smiling..
“It's such a shame, I wish it wasn't just for work! I can't believe I missed that scene.”
“It wasn't really important.”
“Isn't it difficult? It was your first time doing it..”
“It wasn't very difficult.”
“Yes, it's you. That's Kang Woo-jin.”
Soon, Choi Seong-geon was whispering to Woo-jin..
“Today we; I've been a bit busy looking into various things regarding BW Entertainment's overseas branches in Hollywood. That will be your base when you go to Hollywood..”
Choi Seong-geon, who was laughing meaningfully, suddenly changed the topic..
“Ah, but Annie, when is the official recording date for ‘Boyfriend: Remake’? I heard that it will be a few days later..”
Kang Woo-jin recalled the director's comment at the reading room..
‘29After finishing the reading today, we will begin official recording on the 31st, two days later. The entire recording schedule takes between 3 and 5 days..’
‘The official recording of ‘Male Friend: Remake’ is on the last 31st of May..
That is, two days later..
31Sun, Monday. Around 10 o'clock in the morning.
‘The day of the official dubbing recording for ‘Male Friend: Remake’. For reference, the convening time is around noon. And today, the entire staff of ‘Unfamiliar’, including director Kyotaro, received a call from Chairman Hideki. It was for a company dinner held in the hall of ‘Kashihi Tokyo Hotel’. Gorgeous food and various drinks and alcohol were set on round tables in the spacious hall..
An event prepared by Chairman Hideki to commemorate Crank Up. If it’s an after-party, it’s an after-party..
In fact, there is nothing for the main investor to do this, but Chairman Hideki, who visited the crank-up site, was so impressed that he voluntarily gathered his staff..
anyway.
“wow! It's so delicious!!”
“Eat plenty! Where would you go to eat food like this?!”
“It's a waste of time to talk!”
‘About 100 staff members of ‘Unfamiliar Gisaeng’ had a hectic dinner party. Of course, actors and other people involved were also mixed in. However, for some reason, director Kyotaro, writer Akari, and Kang Woo-jin were nowhere to be seen..
It was obvious.
Because they were all gathered in the reception room near the hall. To be exact, the number of people gathered in the very large room was Chairman Hideki at the head of the table, on either side of him were director Kyotaro and writer Akari, followed by Kang Woo-jin and Choi Seong-geon. At the end, a representative of a film company or a distribution company executive could also be seen..
Roughly fifteen people.
The atmosphere was a bit serious. Kang Woo-jin’s facial expression. However, his inner thoughts were grumbling..
‘Oh, if it's something important, the higher-ups will take care of it. I'm starving..’
Because I was craving the high-quality food lined up in the hall. But I don't show it on the outside.
Soon, Chairman Hideki, who was sitting at the head of the table and had taken off his suit jacket, let out a harsh voice..
“First of all, everyone worked hard. But - the changed ending. We were going to proceed without hesitation, but we all wanted to get together so we could mentally prepare ourselves. I just wanted to hear your story..”
He was the head of the ‘Kasihi Group’. He must have had more experience than anyone else in this position, and the image of the future 'unfamiliar parasite' was clear. Chairman Hideki focused his gaze on writer Akari on the right and spoke Japanese again..
“Once 'Familiar Gisaeng' is released, the first bullet will probably be fired by fans of the original 'Familiar Gisaeng'. That seismic trend will soon subside and the public, including the entertainment industry, will be affected here and there. No matter if it's a controversy, a complaint, or anything else..”
It was the picture that everyone gathered here, including Chairman Hideki, expected..
“I know they are forcing it, and I agreed to it. Instead, wouldn't it be better to prepare in advance??”
“you're right.”
Starting with Director Kyotaro, the CEOs and executives of film companies and distribution companies nodded. It was something I was planning to talk about after filming was over anyway. Next, Chairman Hideki, who was rubbing his chin, asked Director Kyotaro..
“I'm not doubting it, I've seen it with my own eyes. However, the director's eyes are different. how is it? Are you sure about the quality of ‘Unfamiliar Gisaeng’??”
“······Although there was some editing left.”
Director Kyotaro, full of gray hair, put strength into his voice..
“I think this will be the best movie in my entire film career..”
When a movie causes a huge controversy, the situation becomes very bad if the quality of the work is trash. However, the 'unfamiliar parasite' said that it was okay to exclude that part for now. It's not 100% certain, but the great director Kyotaro made a bold statement..
Soon, Chairman Hideki nodded slowly and.
“Well, then there is nothing wrong with the work..”
An executive from the distribution company got involved..
“Well, ‘Unfamiliar Parasite’ was noisy from the beginning of production, and it already has a considerably higher reputation than other competing works. We'll have to do a thorough investigation, but just looking at social media, it seems like there's no one who doesn't know about the 'unfamiliar gisaeng'..”
Chairman Hideki, who raised one of his white-haired eyebrows, glanced at Kang Woo-jin, who was sitting silently..
“Well, Woojin’s power has been great recently..”
“yes. you're right. So, about two months before the movie's release, when full-fledged promotional marketing begins, how about reducing the firepower a little??”
“reduce?”
“yes. Do basic promotions, but skip the production presentations and marketing schedules. Several previews were also scaled back a bit..”
“Are you saying you want to reduce the expected noise to the maximum??”
“That's the intention.”
Normally, there would be frantic promotion and marketing, but 'Unfamiliar Gisaeng' had already created a lot of buzz. Therefore, the intention was to reduce the anticipated controversy and resentment as much as possible. Honestly, no one can guarantee how big the fire will spread, but it was clear that it would be very large according to the predictions of the film company and distributor..
Chairman Hideki, the main investor, folded his arms and sighed..
“hmm-”
The atmosphere becomes quite heavy. Here, Chairman Hideki's eyes suddenly fell on Kang Woo-jin, who was sitting in the middle..
“What do you think, Woojin??”
A question suddenly posed to Kang Woo-jin. Of course, Woojin was maintaining a poker face. But he was a little upset inside..
‘What is this old man suddenly doing? Are you asking me that? The higher-ups can take care of that..’
He had a strong desire to take care of it, but he had a strong sense of concept and there was no way he could go backwards. Here, I had to solemnly strike with a single sword..
More than anything.
‘But isn’t it a bit annoying to reduce publicity?? Is it just me? It feels like something is running away..’
Woojin's true intentions were completely different from the current situation. It was a decision that was possible because he was the type of person who ‘just needs to move to Korea.’ The mindset itself is completely different from everyone here. Woojin like that.
-Sigh.
Starting with Chairman Hideki, who sees himself, we looked at director Kyotaro, writer Akari, Choi Sung-geon, and representatives of distributors and film companies. focus attention.
Wow, this is such a burden..
However, contrary to his intentions, Kang Woo-jin sounded very calm. It was low and concise Japanese..
“Rather, I think it would be better to expand the board further, I think..”
Most people were surprised. The answer was given by Chairman Hideki at the head of the table..
“···Make the board bigger?”
Kang Woo-jin was calm in the world..
“yes. If you backtrack, people will look at you like a fool even more, and the flow of swearing will become stronger..”
A smile spread across Chairman Hideki’s wrinkled mouth..
“The more this happens, the more straightforward it becomes, and on the contrary, let's amplify the situation - we are making everything bigger than before, including publicity and marketing, production presentations and events, as if we are playing the game. Reporters and officials also call more than usual..”
“yes.
In other words, let's not be afraid and sow more seeds of chaos. Chairman Hideki, with a deep smile, spoke to Kang Woo-jin..
“We broke through head-on the plate that was several times bigger than ours..”
Kang Woo-jin answered in an indifferent tone..
“That's my opinion.”
Meanwhile, at the same time. korea.
The Korean film industry press was pouring out quite a few articles related to yesterday's weekend..

And at a porridge restaurant in Jinju, Gyeongsangnam-do, Kang Woo-jin's parents, Seo Hyun-mi and Kang Woo-cheol, were looking at the large TV on the wall while preparing for the opening..
“······”

Both of them are just watching TV, mesmerized. The morning news was currently playing on TV. Culture-related corner order. The clear voice of a female anchor rings out..

Soon, Seo Hyun-mi and Kang Woo-cheol, who had been watching TV blankly, slowly looked at each other. And then they chanted in unison as if they were salty..
“My son's wife, a million-dollar actor?”
