I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor - Chapter 351
I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor Chapter 351
Kang Woo-jin got into the black van parked on the shoulder of the entrance to Incheon Airport. Dozens of Woojin’s teams followed suit and soon the atmosphere inside the van became lively. Meanwhile, Kang Woo-jin was holding Cannes’ ‘Best Actor’ trophy in one hand, and as soon as he got into the van, Woo-jin looked out the window with a calm expression on his face.
I see hundreds of reporters looking half crazy, blocked by giant guards.
-Babababababaak!
Even though Kang Woo-jin is already in the van, he keeps pressing the shutter button. It’s a bonus to yelling at a level that’s hard to understand. zombie? Kang Woo-jin sighs softly inwardly.
‘Oh, it’s so tough! Anyway, finally Korea! My home! It’s been a while since I last saw this van! ‘I’m finally back!’
On the outside, he looked solemn, but on the inside, he was Kang Woo-jin, dancing on his shoulders. To the public, it feels like returning home to Woojin. It was around 3pm when I arrived in Korea. But now it’s getting closer to 5 o’clock. The reason was simple.
‘I really didn’t know the interview would last close to 2 hours.’
I had to spend nearly two hours with the reporters who flocked after the golden return. Of course, there were more onlookers than hundreds of reporters. If only Woo-jin had been present, the time would have been slightly shorter, but since all the ‘leech’ actors, including ‘Hwanggeung Palm Award’ director Ahn Ga-bok and Shin Shim-ho, were there, the time was slightly longer.
‘Whoa – what kind of question was I asked?’
Kang Woo-jin received a barrage of questions from hundreds of reporters. It was roughly the meaning of Miley Kara’s acceptance speech in French related to the Best Actor Award, but she couldn’t quite remember it. Well, there was no reason to think too deeply.
At this time.
-Rat!
Staff members, including Choi Seong-gun and Jang Soo-hwan, who were in charge of cleaning up, got into the van. Choi Seong-gun shows the starting signal right away. Thanks to this, the stopped van slowly moved, and the flash fire of hundreds of reporters surrounding the van as if it was burning at the end became faster.
About 10 minutes later.
The black van that managed to get out of the airport was driving on the highway. The inside of the van is still bustling.
“Wow – on all the search sites, the only person on the main page is seriously Woojin!”
“Of course it’s tidy! Social media was also plastered with Woojin oppa! But wasn’t it a bit weak to have reporters show up at the airport?”
“A few hundred more people came to the outside parking lot, but it seems like they couldn’t get in because it was blocked.”
“ah! Articles about my brother’s return are slowly pouring in!”
Choi Seong-gun, who was in the passenger seat, was smiling happily while looking at his cell phone and added a comment.
“Kuk Woojin. I had expected it, but it was overturned and overturned. This thing is going to explode for at least two weeks. Ah, let’s get some rest today and tomorrow, Woojin.”
“yes.”
“I want to give you more rest, but we have a backlogged schedule, and every time Cannes comes, the schedule will get a lot more complicated.”
“It doesn’t matter. I had some rest in Cannes.”
Kang Woo-jin, who answered simply, was silently looking out the window. He returned with results that went beyond enhancing national prestige, but now he was full of unrelated concerns.
‘I’m begging for something to eat when I get home, so I crave something spicy. Kimchi stew? Ah, the pig’s feet are a bit glimmering too. How about simple ramen? no. Ramen goes to the first round.’
Choosing a menu to commemorate your return. Then, as if something else came to mind, Kang Woo-jin, who was maintaining a poker face, picked up his cell phone. He then scattered the ‘Best Actor Award’ photos from the Cannes Film Festival that he had taken in advance. He announced the news of his return to everyone he had contacted, including his family, friends, and colleagues.
soon.
-Ugh.
-Ugh.
Numerous replies poured in. Korea Japan Hollywood.
At this time.
-Sigh.
Choi Seong-geon, who had just finished talking on the phone, turned his head back with a slightly serious expression. He makes eye contact with the calm Woojin.
“Woojin, this is what our main investor relayed to us.”
I’m talking about Chairman Hideki.
“Putting aside all these little things…you have a private plane.”
At that moment, the eyes of the dozen members of Woojin’s team riding in the van widened. Except Kang Woo-jin. Woojin asked in a humble way.
“…Are you talking about a private plane?”
“okay. “I guess I’ll take a private plane for my next trip to Japan, right?”
Kang Woo-jin glowed. Inside, of course.
‘This is crazy!! What is this private plane all of a sudden!!! Are you talking about those private planes you only see in movies?!!
For him, the only ‘private plane’ was the hang glider he made when he was young.
Meanwhile, inside the plane.
Business class on an airplane flying high in the sky. Among the people who were sound asleep, I saw some familiar faces. Several executives from the Hollywood distribution and film company ‘Universal Movies’ attended Cannes, including Meghan and others. Among them, the only one who was not asleep was the man sitting by the window. It was Joseph Felton, a famous giant producer.
“……”
He was looking out the window with his chin resting. Unlike Kang Woo-jin, who moved quickly, Joseph’s team stayed in France for a few more days even after the Cannes Film Festival ended. And now I’m heading back to LA. Joseph soon looked out the window and lowered his eyes. Four thin wads of paper are placed on one’s lap.
Synopsis or concept idea received from four Hollywood screenwriters.
Joseph picks up a copy of the different genres, a thriller, noir crime action comedy based on ‘Jekyll and Hyde’ and includes dissociative personality disorder.
“I guess I should go with this too.”
He had been thinking about it before coming to Cannes and made a decision. Now, when I return to LA, I will start working on the scenario in earnest. However, the woven board was twice as fast as normal speed. The main team, including Megan, was already assembled, and there was even a list of directors other than Danny Landis, who raised the possibility of the cast including Kang Woo-jin.
Then.
“Hmm-”
The tall Joseph crossed his long legs and suddenly remembered the blonde Miley Kara. To be exact, it was a conversation I had with her at the Cannes Film Festival after-party. It started with Miley Kara, who was attached to Joseph as he saw Kang Woo-jin surrounded by big names from all over the world.
“I heard that Joseph is preparing a project with ‘Universal Movies.’”
Joseph was a little surprised by the sudden request for conversation.
“Miley, isn’t it rare that you bring up your work first?”
“I did my own research, but there wasn’t much information. “It’s probably in the early stages.”
“That’s right. But team formation is 70% complete.”
“What about the director?”
“The list is confirmed. I’m coveting Coach Danny the most.”
A smile appeared amidst Kara’s characteristic cold tone of voice.
“Director Danny Landis – Director Danny doesn’t take on projects that aren’t scripts he wrote, right? “If you’re at his level, you’ll rush to any place with money.”
“We are working hard and have increased our chances in this year’s Cannes.”
“Hmm – if Director Danny takes on this, it will make quite a fuss in Hollywood.”
Kara muttered, locking her blue eyes with Joseph.
“When the official synopsis or draft of the scenario comes out, please send it to me too.”
Giant Joseph’s eyes widened slightly.
“Really?”
Miley Kara was rumored to be difficult to recruit in Hollywood because she was expensive. At least, it was the first time she approached me and asked for a scenario. Joseph asked her.
“……no way. Because of Kang Woo-jin?”
Kara shrugs.
“It’s not exact, but Joseph, you came to the ‘Leech’ filming set for Kang Woo-jin and even visited Bangkok for ‘Beneficial Evil.’ Even film company executives came along. “You said to the outside world that you just stopped by before going to Cannes, but in my view, you are the type of person who hides the reason for everything.”
“……”
“They are probably trying to cast Kang Woo-jin as the lead in the project they are preparing this time. Solo lead role? Whatever it was, it was a journey for verification. “I really need to see that movie’s script.”
“Miley, do you like Kang Woo-jin? “As a man.”
Miley Kara frowned.
“Are you crazy? It’s because of his acting. You’ve seen ‘leeches’ and ‘beneficial evil’. It was the first time I felt scared after seeing someone else’s performance. I thought I was doing well, but after seeing Kang Woo-jin, I felt distant. “I even get respect.”
“Rather than acting, it feels like the actual role is playing in real life. Kang Woo-jin’s acting is not method. “Something higher than that.”
“I wanted to look at it long-term rather than briefly like ‘Beneficial Evil.’ “That’s it.”
Joseph grinned.
“Okay, if I come up with a scenario that’s worth sending, I’ll send it to you right away. Ranked second among actors. “Of course, first place is Kang Woo-jin.”
Kara nodded, her voice slightly muffled.
“The premise is that Kang Woo-jin’s casting has been confirmed. “If you fail to catch him, don’t even think about sending him to me.”
At this point, Joseph returned to reality and inside the plane, his smile deepening.
“For some reason, I feel like the fate of a movie production depends on one actor.”
Soon he was holding his cell phone, looking at something and muttering softly.
“If it has this much influence, it’s worth walking.”
What he saw was Kang Woo-jin’s name spreading across the world, including Hollywood. Many things other than articles and videos have spread. Of course, with people’s mouths and fingers as well. In fact, due to Woojin’s declaration of war related to Khan, Kang Woojin’s name was frequently mentioned in the mouths of bigwigs from around the world.
Of course, Cannes’ home country, France.
“With French skills of this level – the first Korean actor to win Best Actor at the Cannes Film Festival. Has actor Kang Woo-jin returned to Korea now?”
“I confirmed that it has already arrived in Korea.”
“I’m still reminded of your acting in ‘Leech.’ Send the scenario to Kang Woo-jin as soon as possible. “Other directors have probably already started working on it.”
“All right.”
Most of the big directors from around the world who approached Kang Woo-jin during the after-party were like that. The ripple effect that Kang Woo-jin showed at Cannes was also a ripple effect, but the fact that he speaks English, including French, at a high level made the big players even more excited.
On the other hand, there were likes and dislikes in Hollywood.
“Are you aiming for the Academy Award next year? Huh, this Korean actor is a bit outgoing.”
“Hasn’t there always been an actor like this? But now there is no one left. Winning the Best Actor award at Cannes is great, but winning the Academy Award is even higher.”
“I heard Coach Danny spoke highly of it.”
“Coach Danny? Hmm, it must have been overwhelming, because that stubborn Khan was enough to break the rules.”
“It makes me wonder what kind of actor he is.”
Because Kang Woo-jin’s acceptance speech was quite stimulating. It was like offending the proud figures of Hollywood. However, the level of interest in Woojin also skyrocketed. Because there were many directors who viewed it positively. Whatever the purpose other than the director’s interest in the director’s acting ability to take advantage of the issue.
“Start by asking if you can recruit him to his agency.”
“I sent the email, but I also heard there were instructions from LA.”
“Oh, then is it possible to talk directly?”
“I’ll check.”
Kang Woo-jin was hot to great directors from around the world.
The next morning, Wednesday the 13th.
The location is Kang Woo-jin’s house. The country and the world were in an uproar over Kang Woo-jin, but in reality, Kang Woo-jin was lying dead in his bed. The house is silence itself.
“……”
It was past 9 a.m., but there was no sign of Woojin’s oversleeping ending. It was as if he was trying to relieve his fatigue all at once. Of course, even at this moment, many calls were arriving on his cell phone, but even Woojin’s cell phone was quiet. Because the owner changed it to silent.
Has it been about an hour like that?
“Uuuh-”
Kang Woo-jin, groaning like a zombie with one side of his head pressed down, squirmed out of bed. His current appearance, which has shed away rigid concepts, is that of a natural person.
“…I had a good night’s sleep.”
Who would see this beggar as the ‘Best Actor’ winner at the Cannes Film Festival? Anyway, Woojin stood up, dazed for a moment, and then picked up his cell phone. When he saw that he had accumulated a lot of contacts such as text messages, DMs, etc., he only checked the absence. Fortunately, there was nothing urgent. Woojin roughly threw his cell phone back on the bed and came out to the living room, turning on the device.
The first thing that caught Kang Woo-jin’s attention was:
“K-Jiri.”
These were trophies placed on the living room desk. Among the awards received so far, the Best Actor Award from the Cannes Film Festival, which was won a few days ago, was added. Woojin smiled at that majestic figure.
“Why do you think it’s not mine?”
Kang Woo-jin is in a high mood. Something flashed through his mind for a moment.
“Ah, Miley Kara’s new album.”
It was a thought I put off for a while because I was out of my mind. Miley Cara’s new album was released worldwide yesterday. Soon Woojin moved to the bed again and picked up his cell phone. And then I went straight to YouTube. Like the new album, the official music video must have been released.
however.
“Whoa, crazy.”
There was no need to search. Woojin was looking for exactly what he was looking for in the video that was trending No. 1 in real-time popularity.
