I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor Chapter 223
( Sacrifice (4) )
About an hour later.
The first scene was rated OK after 6 attempts. Of course, the 5th scene, in which Yasuta suddenly developed, was of OK quality, but director Kyotaro also tried the 6th scene just to confirm.
As a result.
‘Good, I’ll go with number 5 or 6.’
Kyotaro was able to get exactly the scene he wanted. That was the end of the rather difficult first scene of ‘Familiar Gisaeng’. However, dozens of ‘unfamiliar’ staff members, including director Kyotaro, became even busier.
Because I had just finished the first scene.
“Sea fog!! “A little stronger sea fog!!”
“yep!!”
“The director is adding one more light!!”
“Installing now!”
“Props team!! Where is another wooden boat??! “We need to add another camera!”
“I will prepare!!”
It was already past 8 PM. Except for the on-site reporters, film company distributors, and actors, almost no villagers were onlookers. Because the fishing village of ‘Inefunaya’ has become more gloomy overall.
Due to filming cooperation, more light from the village other than the street lights was taken out, so it was virtually dark.
Especially around the dock where the filming took place.
The only thing that was needed was soft lighting tailored to the photo shoot.
It was then.
-widely!!
The sound of slate is heard again. Then, Director Kyotaro’s autograph rang loudly at the filming site.
“High-Q!!”
At the same time, Kang Woo-jin on the wooden boat spread Kiyoshi Iyota all over his body. In an instant, the life disappeared from his eyes. expression? It still looks like a mannequin, but now it is several times more difficult to recognize. Because darkness fell on Woojin’s face.
Of course, the groveling Ginjo on the other side of him also brought out the developed Ginjo.
Unlike in the beginning, when he only squealed, the current Ginjo felt like an adult child suppressing his fears.
Kang Woo-jin looked around the sea filled with sea fog and let out a dry voice.
“Do you remember Toka? Misaki Toka.”
“…Toka. Toka Misaki. That’s right. you! You are Kiyoshi. Kiyoshi Iyota??”
“that’s right. “Now you remember.”
“Am I really that Kiyoshi Iyota? you?”
“long time no see.”
A greeting with no facial expression or emotion. On the other hand, Ginjo’s breathing was so shocked that his eyeballs seemed to pop out.
“Why on earth…why are you me?”
‘Did you make it like this?’ was the perfect answer, but Ginjo was speechless. Kang Woo-jin, breathing calmly, closed his mouth. However, the wind was blowing in his heart, which had become barren due to the drought.
anger? Struggle? It wasn’t like that.
Close to understanding. Ginjo recognized me and thought differently. As evidence, the sense of crisis in his voice faded slightly. You must notice all the changes that your opponent sees from moment to moment. One hesitation ruins everything. Kang Woo-jin became even more lukewarm.
Lower the temperature of your calm mindset further.
Then it got cold.
The camera captured Kang Woo-jin above his chest, and Woo-jin slowly opened his mouth.
“Ginjo. “This is a fishing village around Chiba.”
In reality, ‘Inefunaya’ was located in Kyoto, but it was changed to Chiba for the movie setting.
“And it’s also Misaki Toka’s hometown.”
“Ki Kiyoshi. “You’re not doing this because we bullied you back in the day, right?”
“No way.”
“Haha, yes, yes. Because you were bold. After all, it’s just a joke. yes?”
“But Toka is dead.”
In an instant, all of the past that he had forgotten unfolded like a panorama in Ginjo’s mind. Everything about Tokawa. And her death. Even myself, who was relieved.
But he didn’t show it. It has to be hidden somehow.
“…That thing!”
“that’s right. I threw myself away. But it’s no different from many people turning their backs on me.”
Ginjo’s lips trembled as he looked at Kang Woo-jin in front of him and then at the homeless-looking man on the boat next to him. Kang Woo-jin, expressionless, stared at Ginjo blankly and asked dryly.
“How much of that pushing force is yours?”
“……”
Silence spread for a moment. Here is director Kyotaro’s cut. OK, but change the composition and do the action again. One page of the filming storyboard was skipped behind.
Next scene.
Ginjo slowly lowers his head in response to Iyota’s question. He rolled his eyes nonstop. In the meantime, I was calculating.
Crazy bastard. What on earth are you babbling about now? Could it be revenge? What about Misaki Toka?
‘Why are you doing something like that now?!!’
More than that, does this damn guy know everything? no. That can’t be possible.
‘We had that bitch’s weakness and she didn’t have the courage to talk about it.’
Ginjo, who had been looking down at his bare feet, slowly raised his head. Kang Woo-jin’s dry face is visible. It’s a little clearer because your eyes have become accustomed to the darkness.
Ginjo made up his mind.
“Kiyoshi. “You’re misunderstanding something!”
I decided to turn away.
“I am! I actually treated Toka well! Of course, it’s true that the kids bullied me a bit. no! It was bad. Yes, that’s right. But I pitied her. So I actually tried to stop him.”
“……”
“It’s unfair. “If Toka was alive, I would have told her to save her.”
“okay.”
“That’s right. ah! How about doing this? I will help you.”
“No, Toka would have chosen forgiveness over hatred for you.”
“…uh?”
Kang Woo-jin lets out a bored sigh.
“Ginjo. “You’re also smart.”
“What are you talking about.”
“Because I’m calculating even at this moment. I don’t know if I know everything or not. Yes, you can keep walking away.”
“Now wait a minute. Kiyoshi.”
“You do what you think. are you okay.”
Okay. This one word is for Ginjo. No, it was too scary for Yasta, who was faithful to his role. It wasn’t clear why. It’s just a dry tone, but I can see death. The same was true for Kang Woo-jin’s blurry eyes.
‘Damn it. ‘How on earth can you act like that?’
Yasuta, who implicitly felt jealous, returned to Ginjo’s feelings. There is no front or back. There is only the sea. What about the depths of the sea full of sea fog? Is it deep? afraid. I want to live. But Kiyoshi didn’t see any hope in that guy’s face.
I took a picture of Yasta from the side as he had heightened camera anxiety. He suddenly turned around and shouted at the gloomy village.
“help me!!! here!! here!! There are people! Help me!!”
His own voice echoes across the village and from the mountains behind.
“……”
But the person’s voice comes back like a boomerang and there is no response. Instead, there was an expressionless answer from Woojin.
“You’re the only one having a hard time, Ginjo. There’s no one here. “Do you remember the bubble crisis decades ago?”
“…what?”
“This place was aimed at expansion as a tourist destination at the time. Accommodations, restaurants, etc. were expanded indiscriminately. But the bubble burst and it was ruined. “No one is looking for me anymore.”
It was like an abandoned village.
“If we investigate tomorrow, we’ll find it soon, but no one knows you’re here yet.”
“How did you get here?”
“by car.”
Kang Woo-jin pointed to a homeless man on the boat next to him.
“He’s the one driving. “I sent a message to your wife, Ginjo, on your cell phone.”
“hey.”
“You often meet women under the pretext of going on business trips. Staying out often. Your wife will have no doubts. “That means the three of us will continue to be together until tomorrow morning.”
“……”
“Are you hungry?”
“Ki Kiyoshi. I am.”
“If not-”
After finishing speaking, Woojin moved. He took out his cell phone from his pocket. It was Ginjo’s.
“Call me.”
“…what? To whom?”
“’Horinochi Amie’. “To her, the owner of the karaoke bar right before you came here and one of our nine classmates.”
According to the scenario, before coming to this sea, Ginjo had drinks at a karaoke run by Amie Horinochi, who was also his classmate. And she was also one of the nine students whose homework was written on the crumpled paper that Kiyoshi Iyota had.
“I will tell you the lines. Just tell it as it is and hang up.”
“Amie…now wait a minute. Kiyoshi, are you really seeking revenge on Misaki Toka?”
Woojin, who was shaking his head quietly, spoke dryly as if he was innocent.
“no. “It’s just something to do.”
“It’s…something to do.”
“homework.”
Ginjo’s body trembled and his eyebrows furrowed.
“Hey, if you’re joking, stop it. why? Kiyoshi, why are you avenging Misaki Toka…you are nothing to Toka?”
“that’s right. “I am just a ‘stranger.’”
About this way.
“Cut! OK!”
Director Kyotaro’s autograph has spread again. This time it was OK in one shot without having to take a second shot. Everyone was so focused that dozens of staff members swallowed their saliva and looked at their performance.
Then, the reorganization was completed again.
Compared to the first filming, the current filming process was very fast. This is because the quality of Kang Woo-jin, Yasta, and the actors who play the homeless man, Cho and Dan, has risen sharply. Meanwhile, Yasta felt the process of ‘getting out of’ a role for the first time since becoming an actor.
The difference between ‘Ginjo’ and now was stark.
I had to control my heightened emotions and maintain them. No, I didn’t want to leave a clear string of tension all over my body.
‘Has this ever happened?’
As an actor, it was Yasta’s first time being so immersed in a role. So I get greedy. Because I found acting fun. Afterwards, when director Kyotaro’s action signal rang, Kang Woo-jin, who was cynical in front, immediately lost his moisture. Kiyoshi, who disappeared, appears in one second. The speed was such that my mouth was wide open.
From the dry lines that Woojin uttered, Yasta said his current acting skills.
“Call me, Ginjo.”
I realized that it was not purely mine.
‘Kiyoshi Iyota. Yes, Kang Woo-jin. ‘I was able to do it because of this Korean actor.’
I was influenced by Kang Woo-jin. He dominates this vast filming site like a solid beam. Yasta’s acting ability was just a buff from Woojin.
‘Because it’s realistic. Because he is Kiyoshi himself, I feel like I have entered a world of unfamiliar parasites.’
The ‘unfamiliar gisaeng’ was Kang Woo-jin, and Kang Woo-jin was the ‘unfamiliar gisaeng’. Yasta felt that way as he witnessed Woojin in front of his eyes. And the same goes for director Kyotaro and author Akari, who are watching on the monitor.
It’s as if the filming location of ‘Familiar Parasite’ was spread out over Kang Woo-jin’s hands.
Usually, if the co-star couldn’t act, the actor had to somehow portray the role on his own. Then, naturally, the two are captured on camera in very different ways. It is also said that the scene jumps. Japanese actor Yasta has had countless such experiences.
But it was okay. There was no problem.
‘I just need to focus on what is mine.’
As long as I typed the given lines correctly and overacted just a little, it was OK. A picture that stands out was more important than the quality of acting or the sum of the actors. The current Japanese market is like that. However, ‘Strange Gisaeng’ was not like that at all.
In this place where Kang Woo-jin has become the central point, Yasta does not need to exist unless he is ‘Ginjo’.
‘Kang Woo-jin. This actor’s presence is so huge.’
– Creak.
Soon, Kang Woo-jin’s gaunt voice rang out again from the slightly shaking wooden boat.
“What you have to say to ‘Amie Horinochi’, Ginjo, is simple.”
“…What is it?”
“Just say, ‘Misaki Toka is back.’”
“Toka is back?”
“Okay, that’s it. “Then I’ll send you home.”
“Really?!”
“of course. “I’m really going to send you home.”
An expressionless Woojin held out his cell phone to Ginjo.
“Just in case. “Mistakes.”
“no! Don’t make a mistake. never.”
“It’s okay, Ginjo. “It’s okay to make mistakes.”
“Can I do it?”
“Telling ‘Amie’ about the current situation. Did you ask me to save your life? “That’s okay.”
“Oh no! “I have no intention of doing that!”
“It’s okay just the way it is. The scenario just changes a little. “But you will be raped and found naked tomorrow morning.”
Ginjo’s arms trembled at Woojin’s emotionless words. But I somehow managed to pick up the phone. Then, I call ‘Amie Horinochi’ who is on the list. Ginjo’s hands were polite as he held the cell phone to his ear.
“……Ah, Amie.”
My gaze is on Kiyoshi across the street.
“Misaki Toka is back.”
It seemed like he could hear a loud woman’s voice coming through the phone, but Ginjo slowly lowered the phone. Woojin received it. He then moved into the wooden boat of a homeless man next to him.
“Good job Ginjo.”
A man who appeared to be homeless moved to the wooden boat where Kang Woo-jin was sitting. Change of seats. It was then that Ginjo’s eyes narrowed with anxiety and Woojin’s quiet words were heard.
“I’ll send you home now. “It may be difficult to save it.”
After a while.
Kang Woo-jin could be found on the rooftop of the tallest building in the fishing village. The two cameras filming him are behind his back. And on the rooftop railing stands the homeless-looking man who was with me earlier. It was a familiar composition, just a different location.
Yes, it’s the same as the end of Misaki Tokawa Kiyoshi.
Soon, a homeless man in his 60s looks down at the bottom of the building. I could see the dockside and the moonlit sea. Two wooden boats floating on it. On one of them, a naked man is lying. It was Kinjo Konakayama.
For some reason, he doesn’t move at all. Did he fall asleep?
Either way, the homeless man’s eyes turned to the moon in the distance.
“Tomorrow, the world will turn upside down. High-powered detectives will chase you like crazy. “Don’t let your guard down just because you’re hiding in the fog.”
Woojin Kang. No, Kiyoshi Iyota answered with an expressionless face.
“It’s okay if you don’t go that far, Shutoku Misaki.”
It seems the man’s name is Shutoku Misaki. Has the same last name as Misaki Toka. He smiled wrinkly.
“yes. But now I want to see my daughter.”
“Death is death. “Seeing it after that is a superstition.”
“haha. You look the same now as when I first saw you. Kiyoshi Iyota, I’m sorry for entrusting such a heavy burden to you.”
“It’s not a burden.”
“Okay, okay, homework. You said it right? The detectives will be very confused if I keep my mouth shut. Even though I’m conscious, I don’t have the courage to shut my mouth. “Please, my daughter’s ‘unfamiliar’ friend.”
Kang Woo-jin did not answer any more. It wasn’t something I ‘didn’t do’. It was ‘could not be done’. Because the homeless man standing on the railing has already disappeared. It was like Misaki Toka.
“……”
A homeless person. No, he was Misaki Toka’s father.
