I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor - Chapter 219
I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor Chapter 219
(Momentum (6))
Sunday, January 17th at 7pm. Producer Byung-seon Yoon, the godfather of the entertainment industry, has opened the new entertainment show ‘Our Table’. The channel is comprehensive HTBS. It’s not over the airwaves. However, these days, the boundaries between channels are blurred, and PD Byung-seon Yoon’s name alone is enough to cover up the disadvantage.
Anyway, starting today, ‘Our Table’ airs every Sunday at 7 o’clock.
However, ‘Our Table’, which just started, was episode 0.
Although ‘Our Table’ was mainly about America, there were many stories during the preparation process. Episode 0 of ‘Our Table’ began in earnest with interviews with each member.
[“brother! “Sit down, sit down.”]
[“Ha- Yoon Byung-seon’s face is so boring. We only see each other once a year?”]
[“As expected. “I like you because people really don’t change.”]
[“I hate you.”]
Starting with Ahn Jong-hak, the owner of the barge, Ha Kang-soo, Hong Hye-yeon, Hwarin, Yeon Baek-gwang and Kang Woo-jin. After the members were formed, the team decision story and practice shots filmed at a snack bar followed. The main team in this area was, of course, Kang Woo-jin and Hong Hye-yeon’s kitchen team. Hong Hye-yeon’s poor cooking skills came first, followed by Kang Woo-jin’s flashiness.
Producer Byung-seon Yoon’s unique editing and subtitles brought the scene to life.
In the scene where the teacher, the star chef, confused Woojin’s cooking as the real chef’s, the real-time viewer chat room was shaken. It was ‘our table’ that was pleasing to the eyes, ears and mouth.
In the second half, a scene where Kang Woo-jin’s creative menu was made to a high level was also revealed.
[“As for the name, I think Kimjaban Makguksu would be better.”]
At this time, the viewer chat room was also full of excitement. As a result, episode 0 of ‘Our Table’ ended with the members boarding a plane to the United States.
Total running time is about 1 hour and 30 minutes.
After ‘Our Table’ ended, the overwhelming response from viewers was only positive. It’s hard to find ten thousand negatives.
-Yon Pidi ……….. It’s a really bitter jam …….-
ㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ It’s so fun !!
-No haha is Kang Woo-jin’s personality like that??? Fuck Park Haneul haha but something is funny haha – I guess I
can just watch Our Dinner Table on Sunday night and end the weekend hahahaha fun!!
– Kang Woo-jin fell in love with the wok the first time and fell in love with the knife the second time
– Ha…. Bring the next episode right now!! I’m happy that it’s been a while since I’ve seen a variety show…
– I was looking forward to the chemistry between the members haha. I knew about Ahn Jong-hak, and surprisingly, Ha Kang-soo and Yeon Baek-gwang were a mess haha. Hong Hye-yeon and Hwarin are famous! Kang Woo-jin doesn’t say much, but he just looks like the center hahaha
– No!! Do I just want to eat Kimjaban’s Makguksu?? Where do you get this???
-ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅜㅠIt’s so fun!! I want to see overseas people’s reactions quickly…
– Didn’t PD Yoon’s last entertainment show get 12%?? I think this one will have better viewership ratings hahaha
– Kang Woo-jin is like that hahahaha. What can’t he do???
At this time, the editing room of the comprehensive HTBS entertainment department’s ‘Our Table’ was like hell. Because editing and meetings that lasted all night were endless, including unreleased videos for YouTube, trailers, teasers, making of the main story, etc.
Thanks to this, fatigue appeared on the faces of PD Yoon Byeong-seon and the writers.
“How are the viewers reacting?”
“I’m crazy now!”
“okay! Immediately shoot the prepared videos and articles on YouTube!”
“Yes, PD!”
The story of ‘our dining table’ was already rapidly emerging on the Internet.
Tokyo, Japan at this time.
Around 8 PM, Kang Woo-jin was moving to attend the closing and after-party of the ‘Tokyo Short Shorts International Film Festival’. Of course, the attire is full dress. The location was Roppongi Tower in Minato-ku, Tokyo. It was a very large building and a complex tower where you could enjoy various contents.
The hall of the hotel inside Roppongi Tower was Woojin’s destination.
The hall was already filled with celebrities from the Japanese film industry or entertainment industry who had attended the ‘Tokyo Short Shorts International Film Festival’, but Woojin was very blunt when he entered the lobby.
Although the reporters gathered at the hotel entrance were frantically clicking the shutter button.
“……”
Kang Woo-jin’s solid appearance did not change. Dozens of Japanese reporters poured out various stories upon seeing this. Puzzled, absurd, or surprised.
“You’re so confident, aren’t you?”
“Is your expression always like that? “It’s a cold wind. It’s a cold wind.”
“There’s some talk in Korea that you’re arrogant. “I guess it’s true.”
“Do I look okay? “I really feel like it deserves to become a one-year legend.”
Currently, Woojin has risen rapidly in Japan. Since Kang Woo-jin suddenly appeared here, it was natural that there was an uproar. And Kang Woo-jin, passing by dozens of reporters, was quite trembling.
‘Is this Roppongi Tower? It’s so big. I want to go somewhere else too. ‘Can’t you just turn around?’
It was a thorough tourist mode. It was also because there were so many people there. However, all the big names and famous people who were gathered here were ordinary people to Kang Woo-jin. What do you do if you fall asleep after flying in Japan? In Woojin’s eyes, they are just Japanese grandparents, uncles, and aunts. They just look like handsome or pretty Japanese people in their 20s or 30s.
Then.
-Sigh.
When Kang Woo-jin entered the hall where many big names were gathered, a familiar Korean language was heard from the side of the entrance.
“You’re here.”
When I turned around, I saw a Korean grandfather holding a wine glass in one hand. No, Director Ang Bok, wearing a baggy suit, was approaching. He was alone, either he was waiting for Kang Woo-jin or he had just arrived.
“Aren’t you crazy?”
“no. it’s okay. “Hello, Director.”
“is it so. nice to meet you.”
Director Gabok Ang pointed to a table spread out in a straight line in the middle of the hall. There was plenty of food, refreshments, champagne and wine.
“wine? Champagne? “Drink something.”
Woojin was drooling inside because of all the food.
‘Wow, that sushi looks delicious.’
I shook my head silently.
“I’ll take water.”
Woojin had a busy day today due to the interview schedule, so he felt a bit like alcohol, but had to hold back. Anyway, Director Ga-bok Ang spoke to Kang Woo-jin, who picked up a bottle of bottled water placed near the liquor.
“Look at the people here, they’re all pretending not to be, but glancing at Woojin.”
“……”
That was actually true. There were at least 200 people gathered in the hall, including famous directors and actors, and they kept glancing in this direction after Kang Woo-jin appeared. But there were no people approaching yet. Director Gabok Ang showed a wrinkled smile at that sight.
“Is it curiosity or a desire to win? Either way, Woojin really made a mark.”
“I didn’t mean to.”
“If this floor rolls as intended, it’s heaven. Because it’s not like that, it’s hell. However, Woojin doesn’t look that nervous.”
“Should I?”
“No, not at all. You can stir as much as you want. Because that is also your advantage. “No matter whether it’s a foreign country or any other environment, you don’t even pay attention to those around you.”
It was a misunderstanding. Because Kang Woo-jin was currently glancing at the sushi on the center table. Director Anga Bok, who had no idea about this, changed the subject after sipping a glass of wine.
“How about attending the actor audition for ‘Leech’?”
“You mean audition?”
“hmm. This is a request to the judges, but if you are busy, you can pass. But it would be a great help if you came.”
“……”
Woojin maintained a poker face, but inside he was angry.
‘judge?? You want me to audition for an actor?! ‘What kind of bitter words is this???’
Director Anga Bok, who greeted the Japanese actors around him, made eye contact with Woojin.
“People around me are talking about Woojin’s career and how they view him. Actually, I think the acting career you’ve built is sufficient. “It’s been a year since your debut, but you’ve been teaching yourself how to act.”
“……”
“It’s hard to estimate, but Director Ki-taek Kwon has been there for at least 10 years. I thought maybe it was 15 years. I’m similar too. There is a problem with judging whether you are a rookie or a veteran. “I guess we should see them as new humans.”
Well, it was a familiar illusion, so Woojin didn’t think anything of it.
“Is it okay to just sit there without judging?”
“is it so. Actually, I would be grateful if you could do just that. “More than anything, since we detonated such a large nuclear bomb in Blue Dragon, shouldn’t we show a performance that matches up to some degree?”
“I’ll think about it. “I don’t think it would be a big deal if I had the time.”
“Well, thank you.”
At this time.
“Mr. Woojin!”
Japanese suddenly infiltrated nearby. It was a voice I had heard before. I looked to the side and saw Director Kyotaro, with short, gray hair, half-running towards me.
“Haha, it’s been a while since I saw you. “Actually, I was watching it earlier, but it was late because I was caught over there.”
Director Kyotaro, dressed in a suit, smiled awkwardly and held out his hand, and Woojin held his hand and spoke in low Japanese.
“No, Director.”
“I’ll see you on set in a few days anyway, but it’s still nice to meet you. The crowd over there is also noisy now, talking about Woojin. No, most people here are like that.”
“Is that so?”
“Because you are the hottest person.”
Director Kyotaro, who smiled meaningfully, exchanged eye contact with Director Gabok Ang. The two had already exchanged greetings at the film festival and knew each other from the beginning.
Whatever happens, it starts from here.
“Hello, Mr. Kang Woo-jin.”
Japanese actors who had been paying close attention began to approach Kang Woo-jin. It seemed like Director Kyotaro’s joining had a big impact.
“Nice to meet you, Kang Woo-jin.”
“I enjoyed watching ‘Male Friend’ with Hanryang. nice to see you.”
Gradually, people began to gather around Woojin. Top Japanese actors, famous directors, Japanese entertainment industry officials, etc. Kang Woo-jin, surrounded by at least fifteen people, had to receive many greetings and questions.
Of course, the same goes for directors Gabok Ang and Director Kyotaro.
At this point, one fact was preached to Japanese giants.
“Ah…You’re targeting the Cannes Film Festival with Director Ahn.”
Directors Ahn Ga-bok and Kang Woo-jin will participate in this year’s Cannes Film Festival. This quickly spread to the top Japanese actors in the hall as well as the directors. A strange tension quickly arose.
The reason was simple.
“Huh – I heard that Director Komuro is also exhibiting at the Cannes Film Festival this year.”
“Director Masuzawa also cranked it up last month, right? “This year’s Cannes Film Festival will be a battlefield.”
Several great Japanese directors were also targeting Cannes.
The next morning.
Inside a large van driving on the streets of Tokyo. Woojin’s team, including Choi Seong-geon, who yawns, are busy with their own tasks. Among them, Kang Woo-jin, wearing a gray coat, is looking out the window indifferently.
The van stopped in the parking lot outside a large building.
The location is approximately near Tokyo Station.
Woojin got out of the parked van and caught his eye on the tall building visible. The entire building is gray and the number of floors appears to be over 10. Plus, it’s wide on the sides too.
‘Wow, it’s definitely big.’
Around that time, pony-haired Choi Seong-geon, who was next to him, tapped Kang Woo-jin on the shoulder.
“Let’s go, Woojin.”
The ones moving are Choi Seong-gun, Kang Woo-jin, and several employees. Interpretation staff were also included. Soon, a huge statue installed in front of the building entrance welcomed Kang Woo-jin. To be clear, it was a character from a famous animation. It was so well known that even Woojin, who didn’t know much about animation, knew about it.
And there was a proud sign above the entrance.
-‘A10 Studio’
A very large animation production company ranked in the top 3 in all of Japan. In addition to the animation of ‘Male Friend’, it was also the place where Kang Woo-jin had a meeting today.
As expected, ‘A10 Studio’ was unique from the lobby.
‘I’m tired – is this a company? Isn’t it just a place that sells goods??’
Just as Woojin was muttering to himself, the first floor lobby of the large production company ‘A10 Studio’ was full of animation characters. Life-size human-sized figures were visible everywhere, and animation was being displayed on monitors widely seen in the lobby. Character heaven on the ceiling and walls.
There are even stores selling goods.
Isn’t this place heaven for animation fans?
Although Kang Woo-jin was trying hard to maintain his indifference, he could not help but be amazed by the truly amazing sight. Still, the staff at ‘A10 Studio’ who welcomed Kang Woo-jin’s team was ordinary.
“Hello, I was waiting.”
Several male and female employees in suits greeted Kang Woo-jin and guided him. What’s strange is that all the employees passing by in the information elevator hallway and other places are looking at Kang Woo-jin openly. There were even quite a few female employees who squealed.
The place where Kang Woo-jin’s team arrived was a spacious conference room on the 5th floor.
‘No, can I call this a conference room??’
The conference room was also a kingdom of animation characters. There were characters everywhere, from the books piled up on the L-shaped desk to the screen in front of the glass door. Kang Woo-jin was reluctant to sit down, but somehow managed to pull out the chair and put his butt on it.
As soon as the staff in charge of information left, the BW Entertainment staff clicked their tongues.
“Isn’t it really a little confusing here?? “Even if it was famous as an animation production company, I wouldn’t have thought it would be like this.”
“Look at the character drawn on the chair.”
“Somehow… I feel like I’m in Akihabara. You know? “It’s very famous for animation.”
Kang Woo-jin agreed in silence.
at the same time.
-Sureuk.
The glass door with the female character drawn on it opened again and other Akkawan employees came in. Two women and two men. But there was something special about the force. At first glance, Woojin seemed to be an executive at ‘A10 Studio’.
Simple greetings and business cards were exchanged afterwards.
“Thank you, Woojin Kang. “You don’t know how nervous I was because I was afraid I wouldn’t even be able to see you.”
A woman who introduced herself as the head of the planning department smiled at Kang Woo-jin.
“Our company is in chaos right now because Woojin has a lot of fans.”
“Thank you. It’s an honor.”
“‘Boyfriend’ was really fun.”
“I’m glad that Japanese fans like it.”
“Wow, I already knew that, but how are you so good at Japanese??”
I don’t know if she was the mood maker, but anyway, the meeting atmosphere quickly relaxed and A10 Studio handed over several tablets to Woojin Kang’s team. The front and back views of the male character were displayed on the screen. The female team leader explained who it was.
“This is the ‘Han In-ho’ character sheet. “I referenced Woojin’s appearance as much as possible.”
Tall, dark hair, facial features, and indifferent expression. It was definitely similar to Kang Woo-jin. In response, Choi Seong-gun and BW employees added a word.
“You look alike, Woojin.”
“hmm. “I see.”
“I think I was chosen well??”
On the other hand, Kang Woo-jin was a bit different.
‘Is this me? A-this guy is so cool??’
Would the character be awkward? At this time, a male executive from A10 Studio continued his explanation.
“I will tell you more details later, but let me get to the point right now. The ‘Boyfriend’ animation is already in production. The goal is to launch in July of this year. “We are mobilizing three teams to get up to speed.”
That means moving one team in episode 1, one team in episode 2, and one team in episode 3. This way, you can complete three episodes at a time. It may not be possible for a small or medium-sized production company, but it was quite possible for a large production company like A10 Studio.
-Sure.
A10 Studio’s female team leader pushed a moderately thick wad of paper to Woojin.
“This is the official script for Episode 1. “Compared to the draft I sent you, some settings have been added and some settings have been omitted, but you can view it as confirmed.”
Things have changed, but the core remains the same.
Woojin, who had a silent face, checked the cover after receiving the script. You can see the title written in Japanese.
-‘Male Friend Remake’
-Episode 1
-A10 Studio
However, Kang Woo-jin had his eyes set on something other than the title. It was a black square attached to the side of the script, and Woojin secretly raised his index finger.
-Hook.
In no time, his vision changed from a conference room full of characters to a subspace where only darkness existed. It was only at this time that Woojin, who had let go of the strange concept, stretched and moved his feet.
“Aww! First, let’s check the grade first.”
Among the many floating white squares, I checked the just added ‘Boyfriend Remake’. Soon Woojin laughed.
“Oh-”
-[10/Script (Title: Boyfriend Remake) S Grade]
-[*This is an animation script of very high perfection. 100% reading is possible.]
It was a result that showed many signs of a big hit. Next, Woojin, who maintained a smile, chose the ‘Boyfriend Remake’ white square.
-[You have selected 10/Script (Title: Boyfriend Remake).]
Soon, the white squares listed the characters who can lead (experience). Kang Woo-jin naturally chose the male lead. To be honest, I was more curious about the world of the 100% completed animation than about the reading (experience) of the animation. curiosity.
The animation world of the last Gaan was truly shocking even though it was only 50% realized. It was fun too.
“How much will it change if it’s 100%?”
however.
[“……”]
The robot-like woman gives silence. This was a very familiar atmosphere. Soon her voice echoed throughout subspace.
[“Abilities beyond the basic specifications are detected. Learn ‘piano’ first.”]
You didn’t expect this? No, it wasn’t like this last time, right?
“Wait a minute, piano?”
but.
[“Preparing to read ‘Piano’…”]
[“…Ready. The reading of ‘Piano’ is about to begin.”]
It was an instant before the huge gray creature attacked Kang Woo-jin.
