I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor - Chapter 359

I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor Chapter 359

Director Danny Landis is always mentioned as one of Hollywood’s greatest masters. In fact, before calling famous producer Joseph Felton, he sat in his office filled with stacks of paper, including scripts, and checked for anything interesting.

-Sigh.

He looks at the tablet and the thin stack of paper alternately. The things he was staring at, with his half-bald head and round glasses on the tip of his nose, were data. The tablet was sent by Joseph, and the thin paper was researched by Director Danny himself. The content contains the footsteps of an actor.

“…Kang Woo-jin – That’s absurd.”

The only man to receive praise for his acting from director Danny, who won the Best Actor award at Cannes. It was information about Korean actor Kang Woo-jin. Director Danny Landis had been thinking about Kang Woo-jin even after returning to Hollywood from Cannes.

Because his appearance, his acting, and his aura never left my mind.

however.

“This is truly absurd.”

When I looked at Kang Woo-jin’s materials, my strange interest grew even more. Director Danny has been in Hollywood for at least several decades. The Hollywood actors he passed by were amazing, but at least in the eyes of director Danny, the footsteps Woojin walked were extremely unfamiliar.

“The second year since debut was real – what are these abilities?”

Compared to the past, many things have been added to Kang Woo-jin’s data.

Despite the fact that it has only been two years since debut, not a single work has failed so far. Is that it? Within a year, he took on the lead role alongside Korean greats and swept the Rookie of the Year and Supporting Actor awards in the first year. From entering Japan to his YouTube channel and social media, etc. In addition, Kang Woo-jin’s various language skills can be seen in numerous articles and videos circulating around.

“…Not just French and English, but Japanese and sign language.”

Vocal, piano, and cooking skills also stood out. In addition to this, Kang Woo-jin was such a monster that it is difficult to mention them all. It even swept Cannes recently. Up to this point, the level was far beyond that of an alien, but what director Danny considered most important about Kang Woo-jin was his acting.

A form in which the characters created by the director and writer seem to break out of the mold and run around in real life.

‘One step further than the method.’

At this point, Director Danny took down the materials he was looking at and recalled the past.

When I was in Cannes.

A place to have a meal with executives from the ‘Universal Movies’ film company before the closing and awards ceremony. The person who started the conversation was a man with a big belly among the executives of ‘Universal Movies.’

“The movie just now was also of a high standard. As expected, I can’t get ‘leeches’ out of my head.”

Other executives agreed.

“Because it was a work that went far beyond expectations. In addition, the actors’ acting was good. In my opinion, it is the best among the ‘competitive’ works so far.”

“I still have a lot of movies to watch, but for me too, ‘Leech’ has the upper hand. What Joseph said was true. Kang Woo-jin’s method acting was his main skill, and ‘action’ was one of his secondary abilities.”

“Kang Woo-jin’s ‘action’ was also surprising.”

Director Danny reacted to the words ‘Kang Woo-jin’ and ‘action’.

“‘action’? “If I listen to your conversation… it sounds as if you came after watching Kang Woo-jin film?”

“Ah, that’s right. “We came to see Kang Woo-jin’s filming site before coming to Cannes.”

“…Is actor Kang Woo-jin even capable of action?”

“It’s not at a possible level. It’s safe to say he’s a veteran.”

The exaggerated executive continued.

“It’s entirely possible if you’re from special forces.”

Director Danny Landis narrowed his eyes and his face turned into an absurd expression.

‘for a moment. Special forces? ‘What does this all mean?’

Special forces? That Kang Woo-jin?

Here, director Danny Landis returns his thoughts to his real office. Then, after being lost in thought for a few dozen minutes, he called Joseph Felton. Director Danny had a certain confidence on his face.

“Hello, Director. “I was just about to call you.”

Director Danny got straight to the point to Joseph over the phone.

“Joseph, I will be the director of that piece. Instead, there are conditions.”

“……condition?”

The conditions were very simple.

“The premise is that Kang Woo-jin is in that work. If you can’t bring him in, I will refuse.”

Afterwards.

Kang Woo-jin, who brought up ‘Jang Yeon-woo’ on the set of ‘Beneficial Evil’, took a break. Before you know it, it’s lunch. From here, about 100 staff members, including Woojin, eat for about an hour. In any case, a few hours have passed since ‘Leech’, which announced its first release this morning, was shown in theaters across the country.

Kang Woo-jin sits in an actor’s chair on the outskirts of a crowded filming site.

-Sigh.

‘After eating, I’ll rest for a bit in the empty space and start filming again.’

The big Jang Su-hwan was attached to him.

“older brother! Thank you for your hard work!”

He delivers a tablet along with a bottle of bottled water. The tablet was requested by Kang Woo-jin. why? The intention is to check the reaction to ‘Leech’, which was released today, and ‘The Unfamiliar Parasite’, which was released yesterday. I could have watched it on my phone, but the screen was small so it took a lot of work. It was time for Woojin to give a low answer.

“Oh, thank you.”

A familiar female voice came from the side.

“Mr. Woojin.”

When I looked, Hwarin with spots under her eyes was approaching. The long hair that usually reached my chest suddenly became shorter below my ears. Even the scattered hairs looked as if they had been struck by lightning. Although it was a wig, it was quite natural and not noticeable.

Woojin, who had a serious poker face, answered politely.

“Yes, Hwarin.”

Inside, I was making a fuss.

‘Wow, I saw this before, and it’s absurd to see it again. Even with that haircut, your face supports it, so even with that haircut, you’re a respectable person. Does that make sense?’

Hwarin even openly destroyed the image of a first-tier girl group. Currently, her makeup has darkened her skin tone and the jacket she is wearing has also become darker. It’s almost like a ruined person. Is this an unprecedented transformation? Nevertheless, perhaps because of her fundamental beauty, it was still appropriate to call her pretty.

Hwa-rin asked Kang Woo-jin, who was sitting there.

“Have you seen what the situation is like with the movies that have been released?”

Woojin, who was equipped with a concept without letting his guard down, held up a small tablet.

“I’d like to see it now.”

“Huh- can we watch it together? “Anyway, there’s still some left to prepare for dinner.”

“It doesn’t matter.”

“yes.”

Although Hwa-rin tried to answer calmly, her heart beat violently every time she was with Kang Woo-jin. It was similar in the past, but recently, it has become several times more severe, perhaps because Woojin’s status as a fan of virtue has greatly increased.

‘Is it okay if I ask you to eat together? It was natural enough. Yes, good job.’

Hwa-rin, who praised herself in her mind, pulled out a chair and sat down next to Kang Woo-jin. Then, while focusing his gaze on the tablet he was holding, he asked vaguely.

“Ah, but Mr. Woojin. “Are you very close with Miley Cara?”

suddenly? Kang Woo-jin tilted his head inwardly but answered roughly.

“Moderately. “Why are you doing this?”

“…yes? No, just. Because you’ve been getting involved a lot lately. “You DM me often, right?”

“I do come.”

“amazing.”

“What.”

“No, just. “Look at the reactions to the movie.”

Although it felt uncomfortable, Kang Woo-jin didn’t think anything of it and touched the tablet a few times. ‘Unfamiliar Parasite’, which was released a day earlier yesterday, came before ‘Leech’. It attracted a whopping 850,000 viewers on the first day of release. The Japanese media was half crazy.

『「Familiar Parasite」draws 850,000 viewers on the first day of its release』

『How long has it been since a non-animated film achieved this level of success?「Familiar Parasitic」started with 850,000 viewers on the first day』

『The impact of 「Kang Woo-jin」‘The Strange Sacrifice of a Stranger’ attracted 850,000 viewers on the first day of release A record was set for the number of audiences!』

『Contrary to the concerns of the industry, 『Unfamiliar Gisaeng』, which was proudly released despite numerous controversies, exploded with 850,000 viewers』 As

Hwarin is the leader of the girl group Elani, which is frequently active in Japan, she was quite fluent in Japanese. . After comfortably checking the articles written entirely in Japanese, she opened her mouth.

“It’s so crazy, isn’t it?”

However, not all articles praised ‘The Strange Gisaeng’s’ first day record. There was a lot of content that was thoroughly criticized.

『The setting of ‘Kiyoshi Iyota’, the main character of the movie “Familiar Parasite”, has been destroyed. The main character of the original has almost disappeared… Novel fans are full of dissatisfaction』

『A sharp message from director Kyotaro Tanoguchi to the Japanese content market? “Audiences were taken aback by the shocking ending of the movie ‘Familiar Gisaeng’”

Hwarin, who had been reading the extremely negative articles, glanced at Kang Woo-jin’s expression. His expression was extremely stiff. A face that doesn’t waver at all. Hwa-rin felt relieved and stable when she saw Kang Woo-jin, who was always distracted.

‘It doesn’t look like there’s any damage. Well, there’s no way Woojin would get excited about something personal like this.’

Wrong. Currently, Kang Woo-jin was quite upset inside.

‘These bastards are so talkative. Shiba, how is my acting ruining the movie? You idiots! ‘Fuck you!’

But that’s it. Kang Woo-jin, who quickly changed to the mindset that it was none of my business, moved his fingers again. I turned on the page of a search site with different reviews from Japanese ‘unfamiliar parasites’. At a glance, there was a fierce battle between favorable and negative reviews.

-I just saw it! First of all, I didn’t like the fact that Kiyoshi was a Korean in Japan!!

-That’s right, the director killed Kiyoshi from the original to cast Kang Woo-jin

. -I’ve seen both the original and the movie, but did you enjoy it? Kang Woo-jin’s acting was enough to give me goosebumps

– he tore up the original work! There were too many adaptations and modifications! And it was crueler and crueler than I thought

– well? In fact, the original Strange Gisaeng had some mediocre sections, and on the contrary, the movie Strange Gisaeng felt like it brought Japan’s social problems to the surface

.

-The movie The Stranger is trash!!!

-Director Kyotaro has gone senile! Denied all Japanese content! No matter what, the main character has to get paid!

-To be honest, if you only look at the acting, didn’t you only see Kang Woo-jin in the movie Familiar? The multiple personality-like acting and piano scene in the beginning were truly outstanding

– Why… did they use a Korean actor for The Strange Gisaeng? I don’t understand it even after watching the movie…

– The movie The Strange Gisaeng is better in Korea than in Japan. It’s probably going to happen

– isn’t the ending crazy? It’s completely different from the original!!

-The ending of the movie Familiar was really… scary… It was a murder with a reason, but living without anything happened…

.

.

.

.

Literally on the verge of explosion. It was safe to say that it was an online disaster. There were a lot of rave reviews, but what was more noticeable was the grumbling, backlash, and extreme cursing. This was the same pattern not only on Japanese portal sites, but also on famous SNS and numerous communities. This side was like this, but it was obvious that the other side would be dozens of times more enthusiastic, even without including the hard-core fans of the original ‘Familiar Parasite’.

As a result, several Japanese media and.

『「Unfamiliar Parasite」 sets a record with 850,000 viewers, but the strong outcry from moviegoers is sky-high… Speculation that the number of viewers will gradually decline』 More

than half of the public opinion gave a similar evaluation.

-This is the beginning, there is a lot of interest due to various controversies, including Kang Woo-jin’s, but the movie The Stranger is going to fail soon!

The movie ‘Familiar’ is getting worse day by day.

At this time, Hwarin looked at Kang Woojin again. This was due to the bloody public opinion situation in Japan. However, Kang Woo-jin was quiet this time too. It was a look that made one feel relaxed.

This time it was real.

‘Hmph, damn it. You guys are the only ones barking at me.’

I thought the Japanese reaction was stronger than I expected. However, there was no major blow to Kang Woo-jin. Next, Kang Woo-jin put down the tablet he was looking at and spoke lowly to Hwarin.

“Let’s eat.”

“to?”

“A meal.”

In any case, ‘Familiar Gisaeng’ is higher than ‘Island of the Missing’, which broke Korea’s all-time record.

-[7/Scenario (Title: Strange Sacrifice of a Stranger) SSS Level]

Because it was SSS level.

One day later, on the morning of Thursday the 28th.

Director Gabok Ang was in a van moving somewhere. His expression was very serious as he looked out the window, his face full of wrinkles.

“……”

At this time, the CEO of the film company sitting next to him spoke politely.

“Director, the announcement was just made.”

“is it? Pussy.”

A cell phone handed to director Gabok Ang. Soon, director Ang Bok saw the shame of the work that had earned him the Palme d’Or.

[Audience count on October 27, 2021]

[Daily domestic box office]

1. Leech / Release date: October 27 / Number of audiences: 780,521 / Number of screens: 1354 / Cumulative number of audiences: 780,521

‘Leech’ is also the same as ‘Island of the Missing’. It exceeded the number of viewers on the first day.

Same time.

As if a ‘leech’ on the Korean side had taken over the baton, an official announcement was made in Japan, which was shaken by the nuclear bomb being dropped.

『The total number of viewers for 「Unfamiliar Gisaeng」 on the 27th is 880,000, an increase from yesterday!』

Strangely enough, it seems that many of the complaints and concerns of public opinion in Japan are for naught.

『Hot 「Unfamiliar Parasite」 recorded 880,000 viewers, up from 850,000 on the second day, surpassing 1.73 million on the second day』 The number of

viewers for ‘Familiar Parasite’ increased from the first day of release.

Meanwhile, New York.

Unlike Korea, where it was morning, it was afternoon in New York. It was rush hour, so downtown New York was filled with people and cars on their way home from work. Among the many towering buildings in the city center, the huge New York press office, occupying one of the tallest buildings, was brightly lit. There were many foreigners leaving work at the entrance, but there were also many reporters still working in the media office.

Among them, in an office filled with numerous desks in charge of culture and entertainment, a female reporter was organizing her desk as if she was about to leave work.

-Sigh.

Around that time, a female reporter with long hair and a perm woke up, leaving her messy desk behind.

“Peggy.”

A male voice chimed in from the side. I looked to the side and saw a man with a square chin and a hat approaching. He suddenly put his butt on the female reporter’s desk and said.

“Did you know that Myla Kara is appearing in a Korean production?”
