I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor - Chapter 337
I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor Chapter 337
Woojin Kang came to France for the first time. As he entered the arrivals hall of Nice Airport, his face was extremely indifferent.
“……”
It’s a concept. However, the real Kang Woo-jin was not calm. It was completely frozen.
why?
-Baba baba bak!!
Lightning struck as soon as the arrivals hall door opened. He heard that there were reporters gathered, but seeing people from all over the world in front of him made Kang Woo-jin’s heart beat suddenly. Even hundreds.
‘I’m crazy!! ‘It’s amazing!’
Reporters of various races took pictures of Kang Woo-jin like crazy. Although I didn’t know exactly who he was, I had a strong feeling that I was filming him. Anyway, if it was a minister, it was a minister. It’s not that I haven’t seen this many reporters, but it was my first time seeing reporters from other countries mixed together like this. Woojin felt a little like he had crossed into another world.
‘But why are you filming me?? ‘You don’t know me?’
Woojin’s feet became tense as he felt nervous. Without realizing it, I stopped at the entrance to the arrivals hall, and Choi Seong-gun, the team members, and the guards who were following Kang Woo-jin also stopped. Seong-geon Choi whispered to Woo-jin.
“why? Photo time? Okay, but let’s keep it short if possible.”
What are you talking about? It was an obvious misunderstanding. Woojin’s body was really stiff from the pressure. Still, thanks to Choi Seong-gun, Kang Woo-jin’s mind became somewhat clearer. He soon deepened his poker face and nodded solemnly.
-Sigh.
He raised his hand toward hundreds of reporters. The world was shameless. But if you didn’t know his real identity, he would have seemed quite indifferent. At this time, Korean reporters among the foreign reporters shouted.
“Woojin!! Mr. Woojin!!!”
“hello!! Kang Woojin!! “Please look here!”
“Hand heart!! “Can you do a hand heart?!!”
“Please say something to your domestic fans!!”
“Kang Woojin!! This is my first time entering the Cannes Film Festival! How do you feel!!”
It seemed like quite a lot. Roughly 30 people? Shouting desperately among large foreign reporters. Perhaps they were sad, but Woojin showed his heart. Of course, very solemnly.
More onlookers gather. The same goes for the reporters who left.
Broadcasting teams from various countries who were outside also entered the airport one after another. dizzy. Nice Airport was literally packed with people. From a distance, it looked no different from a swarm of ants. Soon Choi Seong-geon gently pushed Woo-jin’s back and said.
“Let’s move.”
Kang Woo-jin nodded and took his steps. Still, I muttered to myself.
‘What are you doing here? Is it a dream? It doesn’t feel real. ‘My head will explode.’
Just maintaining a strong appearance was a bit daunting. Just like that, Woojin managed to get out of the airport by following the path the guards had managed to make. Numerous tourists outside the airport are taking pictures of Woojin with their cell phones. Anyway, Kang Woo-jin followed Choi Seong-gun’s guidance and got into the prepared van.
I almost breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as the car door closed, the two vans containing Woojin started rolling quickly. Outside the window, I could see people gathered for about 5 minutes. After driving for over 10 minutes, a slightly deserted road appears.
It was only at this time that Kang Woo-jin realized it.
‘Wow, it’s really Jiri.’
That he had entered the Cannes Film Festival.
after.
It was approximately an hour’s drive from Nice Airport to Cannes. Kang Woo-jin will arrive at Cannes soon. There was no particular change in his expression as he continued to look out the window while wearing a hooded zip-up. It was full of cynicalness. But right now, his mind was full of emotion.
‘Wow- really…no wow-‘
continued to come out as an exclamation. The reason was simple. Because the scenery unfolding on the way to Cannes was spectacular. In addition to the endless sea, islands in the distance, picturesque beaches, and movie-like villages in between.
It didn’t seem like it was the same world.
‘What are you doing here?’
If it weren’t for the concept, we would have made a fuss a long time ago. While working as an actor, I went to LA, Japan, Bangkok, and Vietnam, but this place was the most shocking.
Thanks to this, Kang Woo-jin could not take his eyes off the window.
Is every minute and every second a waste?
Meanwhile, Woojin was recovering one of his instinctively imprinted abilities. What could it be? Among many languages, it was ‘French’. Since I came to the home of the French language, I was bound to have something to write about somewhere.
At this time.
“Woojin.”
Choi Seong-geon, who was sitting right next to me, who had just tied his ponytail back, pointed forward with his index finger.
“Go into the compartment.”
This means that the Cannes Film Festival has arrived at the venue where it will be held. Looking ahead, I saw the entrance to a very large city. The buildings were tightly packed, surrounded by the sea and the beach, and the buildings and roads were full of cars and people. At that moment, Kang Woo-jin remembered the amusement park he had visited as a child.
‘Wow! There was a pharmacy at the airport??! Can I go for this??!’
The city of Cannes is already crowded thanks to the Cannes Film Festival, which opens this afternoon. The car is heavily blocked. No, it is correct to say that it is crawling. Still, Kang Woo-jin was not bored. Because there was a lot to see outside the window.
Now, it seemed like this city literally existed for the Cannes Film Festival.
So about an hour later.
“ah! “Over there!!”
exclaimed one stylist who visited Cannes last year.
“That’s where the Cannes Film Festival is held!! ah! “What was your name?!”
Choi Seong-geon gave the answer with a faint smile.
“Palais des Festivals.”
“right! there!”
‘Palais des Festivals’ is famous for being the place where the Cannes Film Festival is held every year.
This was a venue of enormous scale. There was a large billboard in front of the entrance and the entire building was covered with glass. It is a six-story building with three large halls, six medium-sized halls, and over 20 small halls. For reference, a large red carpet will be laid out in front of this ‘Palais des Festivals’ building, and the opening, closing and awards ceremonies of the Cannes Film Festival will be held.
In addition, 20 films in the ‘competition section’ will be screened at the large Lumière Theater inside the ‘Palais des Festivals’.
At first glance, there were thousands of people gathered around the Palais des Festivals.
‘Whoa – it turned.’
Since it was the main event of the Cannes Film Festival, of course more than half of the tourists were there. Everyone was busy taking pictures, leaving the ‘Palais des Festivals’ behind. The rest were Cannes Film Festival personnel. What can I say, the finishing work is in full swing? It was obvious that it was related to the Cannes Film Festival, which was to open this afternoon, and an outdoor screening theater was also being set up near the beach.
Reporters and broadcasting teams were busy filming, and there were many tourists being interviewed everywhere.
In front of the ‘Palais des Festivals’, an iron fence was erected several meters from the entrance, and a wide red carpet was spread in the middle of it.
Choi Seong-gun, who took the picture there, said to Kang Woo-jin.
“There it is. “Woojin is where you will walk when the opening ceremony begins.”
Both corners of Choi Seong-gun’s mouth were hanging over his ears.
“At least tens of thousands of people will flock by then.”
This time.
There was a tremendous movement taking place overseas. To be exact, it was Miley Kara’s SNS, a global star with over 100 million followers.
She uploaded a new post at the appointed time.
-[everyone! The music video teaser for the title song of the new album has finally been released! You can see it on the YouTube channel, and the official opening of this new album is on October 12th…] The
post with the jacket photo of this new album included the official opening date of the album. Kara’s new album featuring Kang Woo-jin will be released on October 12th. There are about ten days left. Whatever it was, this post quickly received a surprising amount of likes and comments.
Updated every second. At this level, it was close to artillery fire.
It was only natural that the number of followers worldwide easily exceeded 100 million. What’s interesting is that the name ‘Kang Woo-jin’ is often seen in comments in various languages. The fact that a Korean actor participated in Kara’s new album was already a hot topic among Kara’s many fans.
By this time, Kara’s YouTube channel was already saturated.
The number of views of the music video teaser uploaded just before had already exceeded hundreds of thousands of views. At this rate, it was obvious that 1 million views would be easy within a few tens of minutes.
The running time of the music video teaser is 15 seconds.
At the beginning, after the title of Kara’s new album appeared, the title song’s hook was heard very briefly, and Kara also appeared wearing various costumes. And at the end of the teaser, a piano melody suddenly played.
-♬♪
Next, a Korean actor sat at the piano. In other words, Kang Woo-jin’s appearance lasts approximately 2 seconds. It was an instantaneous moment, but among all Korean actors, Kang Woo-jin would be the first and last. That’s because there’s no way for an actor with the skills to participate in an album by an artist like Kara.
Comments in several languages poured in.
And Kara fans from all over the world naturally moved to Kang Woo-jin’s YouTube channel or SNS. Thanks to this, the shame of Kang Woo-jin’s possessions is, to put it simply, ridiculous.
It was beyond imagination.
Meanwhile, inside an airplane flying in the sky.
The destination of this plane was Korea. The plane bound for Korea is filled with ‘Beneficial Evil’ teams. Not only producer Song Man-woo, who has dark circles, but also writer Choi Nana and general director Kim So-hyang, as well as more than 100 staff members. Returning after completing the overseas location schedule for ‘Beneficial Evil’.
Half asleep, half engaged in conversation.
“Wow, time really flew by. I had no idea the filming in Bangkok would end so quickly.”
“I guess it’s because the stimulation was so crazy throughout the filming period, right? “Miles…no, from the appearance of ‘her’ to Woojin’s long takes, etc.”
“Ah, but Woojin’s action scenes were absolutely killer.”
“You and ‘her’ were a great match, right??”
Kang Woo-jin was the key figure in the staff’s conversation. At this point, writer Choi Nana, who raised her round glasses, asked the bearded producer Song Man-woo sitting next to her.
“Producer Woojin, you must be stirring up Cannes by now, right?”
He looked at the script with tired eyes and turned his head.
“maybe. “It must be crazy.”
“…You must be very tired. “You left as soon as we finished filming.”
“It’s only natural that we have to be on time for the opening day. “It’s a global celebration, so I guess I’ll write it if it’s late.”
Producer Song Man-woo, who was mumbling, suddenly recalled their first meeting with Kang Woo-jin. The director who first discovered Woojin’s first step into the entertainment industry was producer Song Man-woo. He was once again struck by Kang Woo-jin’s current situation as absurd.
“It feels like the ‘Super Actor’ preliminaries were yesterday, but the arrogant monster I saw that day has now gone to a place where being really arrogant is no problem. “To stand shoulder to shoulder with world-class actors.”
Artist Nana Choi swept her forearm.
“Ugh, creepy.”
Producer Song Man-woo laughed when he saw her and changed the subject.
“’Jang Yeon-woo’ was absent for a while, but we have to speed up filming at our own pace. And the general director.”
“hmm? yes?”
Producer Song Man-woo called So-hyang Kim, who was sitting next to him and was sending a message somewhere.
“Is it possible to split our ‘good evil’ in half and open it?”
“…What do you mean by splitting it in half?”
“The question is, what if we literally divide it into two quarters? “Episode 12 will be released in two quarters, with Episode 6 and Episode 6.”
“ah.”
“It’s different from the concept of Season 1 and 2.”
He closed the script he was reading and continued his explanation.
“The conditions for ‘beneficial evil’ are much different now than in the beginning. “The action scenes, the ‘CQC’ script, and even the joining of ‘her’.”
“Yes.”
“Pre-production is the default anyway. In my opinion, rather than going through all 12 episodes at once, I think it would be more beneficial to focus on filming and editing episodes 1 to 6 as quickly as possible before releasing them. “Episodes 7 to 12, which can be considered the remaining second quarter, will resume filming when the first quarter is completed.”
“Hmm, solving episodes 1 to 6 in one shot is the same, right?”
“yes. In addition, it is actually impossible to keep ‘her’ top secret for a long time. “It must have leaked somewhere.”
Kim So-hyang, general director of Netflix Korea, responded.
“So, the key point of what the PD said is – the scheduled release date of ‘Beneficial Evil’. So, it’s correct to push up the launch schedule, right?”
“answer.”
“It blows the back half. No, that means we’ll keep it and go from episodes 1 to 6 first – the schedule will be pushed forward quite a bit, right? “No, not quite.”
Bearded producer Song Man-woo created a gap about the size of a fist between his thumb and index finger. And then he cut it in half.
“that’s right. A simple calculation will kill half of your schedule.”
Half? The time it takes to launch is greatly reduced? Kim So-hyang rubbed her chin and smiled at producer Song Man-woo’s sudden suggestion.
“…Is it tempting?”
