I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor - Chapter 379
I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor Chapter 379
Due to the female reporter’s cries.
“Mr. Kang Woo-jin! Is it true that you were nominated for a role in a ‘Columbia Studios’ production??!! Also in the lead role??!”
All eyes in the large theater were focused on Kang Woo-jin. Director Kyotaro and Japanese actors such as Mana Kosaku of ‘The Stranger Things’, hundreds of reporters, critics or officials sitting in the audience, and even distribution company employees holding the preview of ‘The Stranger Things’ in Gangnam today.
The first thing reporters asked was, “What is she talking about?” It was a face I wanted to see.
“Ugh!!”
“ah!”
Gradually, shock appeared on his face. Because I checked the messages that arrived on my cell phone that I had ignored. This trend rapidly expanded from a few to dozens of people. It was a scoop that broke out suddenly. The person in question was even right in front of us.
Reporters, including me, all sped up their shutter speeds.
-Pababababak!
-Babababababaak!
The entire theater began to explode with flashes like lightning in an instant. It was like this. That’s why Kang Woo-jin’s low voice spread.
“It’s true, but that’s not what I’m talking about here.”
Answering a question from a female reporter. It was quite indifferent, but it still included the word ‘fact’. To this, of course, Director Kyotaro.
”Columbia Studios’?? I see, did you come into contact with them right after Khan? It’s not a small or medium-sized place, it’s one of Hollywood’s ‘Big Five’. If you’re a candidate for a leading role – it means you’ll be competing with some of the best Hollywood actors.’
The eyes of the Japanese actors in ‘Familiar Gisaeng’, including Mana Kosaku, widened. Of course, everyone was looking at Woojin standing next to Director Kyotaro, and their eyes were filled with genuine wonder rather than shock.
‘and! ‘Columbia Studio’??!’
‘Oh my god – if I do this, I’ll end up opening the entrance to Hollywood in my second year, right?’
‘Even the most famous Japanese towers were impossible to achieve even after 10 years… in just 2 years.’
It wasn’t just Japanese pagodas. The same goes for Korea. What actor could sweep Cannes and enter Hollywood in just two years? Of course, the lead role has not been confirmed yet, but it was amazing to be nominated for the lead role in a new film from a huge film company like Columbia Studios. It’s like standing shoulder to shoulder with Hollywood superstars.
The Japanese actors knew this very well, and they couldn’t help but open their mouths.
and.
“Go Kang Woo-jin!! “Since when have you been in contact with ‘Columbia Studios’?!”
“Was the recent trip to LA for this issue?!!”
“Did you also meet with other ‘Big Five’ film companies??!”
“If it’s a new movie from ‘Columbia Studios!’ “Is this the movie they recently released, directed by director Anga Bok?!!!”
Hundreds of reporters went wild. It was safe to say he was half crazy. The preview was instantly transformed into a press conference hall. Before we knew it, hundreds of reporters had already confirmed the scoop that had just been released.
-‘Columbia Studios’ new movie lead candidates announced, total of 5, including 4 top Hollywood actors, including Kang Woo-jin Official!
Kang Woo-jin, who had a strong poker face, was feeling a little embarrassed on the inside.
‘Ah- Mr. Timing! Should I get out first??
Of course, Woojin knew that this matter would explode today. Because the contents were delivered by ‘Columbia Studios’ in LA. However, the time was not clear. However, it was strange that they asked me to postpone the announcement because there was a preview of ‘Unfamiliar Gisaeng’.
I didn’t know what was going to happen, but the times overlapped.
This is impossible even for Kang Woo-jin. Meanwhile, the reporters’ screaming questions did not stop.
“Woojin!! “Is this a Hollywood production directed by director Ahn Ga-bok?!”
“Have you discussed anything with director Gabok Ang?!!”
“Have you met the Hollywood actors who were also nominated?!!!”
The atmosphere became so powerful that it could not be controlled. Woojin had already surpassed the nature of the preview and was staring at hundreds of half-crazy reporters for a moment.
“Director.”
I whispered lowly in Japanese to the gray-faced director Kyotaro standing next to me.
“I’d better leave for now.”
If Kang Woo-jin continues to exist, the situation will not calm down. All Japanese actors, including director Kyotaro, worked hard for the Korean release of ‘Familiar Gisaeng’. Woojin expressed sincere regret.
“sorry.”
Director Kyotaro smiled slightly.
“It’s okay, Woojin, you probably didn’t know either. Things get messy, it’s not uncommon in this area. First of all, congratulations. “I was sure I would hear news from Hollywood sooner or later.”
“Thank you, Director.”
“Is this the project that director Ga-bok Ang was assigned to take on in Hollywood?”
“Yes, it’s not confirmed yet.”
“Woojin, you are the one who makes the impossible possible. There will be no problem even if it is confirmed.”
Isn’t your faith too strong? Woojin next asked for the understanding of Japanese actors such as Mana Kosaku. Of course, Japanese actors also sent congratulations and support along with director Kyotaro. Then, Kang Woo-jin managed to leave the theater following the guidance of the screening staff. Reporters in the audience were showered with flashes like crazy, but fortunately they did not follow Kang Woo-jin out.
It may be because reason has difficulty controlling instinct.
Woojin, who soon left the theater, was immediately caught by pigtail-haired Choi Seong-geon. He, too, was already aware of the scoop that had just been revealed.
“’Columbia Studios’ has released an official statement. “Even the title of the work and the nominated actors.”
“Yes, it was noisy inside the theater too.”
Choi Seong-gun smiled and showed his cell phone to Woojin.
“No dude. “The whole of Korea is in chaos.”
backwards.
The domestic entertainment industry was shaken. Various film companies, entertainment production companies, broadcasting stations, etc.
“this! The Hollywood film company that Kang Woo-jin contacted was ‘Columbia Studios’??!”
“No, is this really an official?? “Just a few days ago, you were actually acting like an attaché!”
“You announced it yourself at ‘Columbia Studios’! “It’s 100% certain!!”
“So…’Columbia Studios’ appointed Director Ahn as general director and even sent a love call to Kang Woo-jin? at the same time?? “Isn’t the picture strangely novel?”
“More than that – the first Hollywood film company meeting was with ‘Columbia Studios’…”
Everyone in the entertainment industry was looking at foreign news articles with similar content translated into Korean.
『CNM/’Columbia Studios’ official announcement of the title and male lead candidate for the large-scale new film!』
-[‘Columbia Studio’ has released additional information on the new work. The title of this work, directed by Korean director Anga Bok, who won the Palme d’Or at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, is ‘Clero’. Additionally, the actors nominated for the male lead role are Chris Hartnett…and what catches the eye is Korean actor Kang Woo-jin. He is an actor who won the Best Actor Award at Cannes for the movie ‘Leech’ along with director Ahn Ga-bok…]
In the foreign press article, Kang Woo-jin, as well as Hollywood actors who were nominated for the male lead in the title of director Ahn Ga-bok’s ‘Clier’, is proud. It was mentioned clearly. What’s interesting is that although the headlines and contents are slightly different, most of the foreign news articles covered Woojin’s introduction at length. It was proof that foreign media also cared about Kang Woo-jin.
It was worth it.
This is due to his declaration of war on the Academy Awards at Cannes and the issues related to Miley Kara. It is natural for Hollywood to be excited that a Korean actor who has already become quite a hot topic may join the monster film company ‘Columbia Studios’.
Plus, the storytelling was amazing.
『BBX/Cannes Palme d’Or Award What if director Ahn Ga-bok takes the helm of ‘Cierrot’ and Kang Woo-jin takes on the male lead? ‘Columbia Studio’, which announced that it would be a large-scale work called ‘Hollywood’s first picture’,
entrusted directing to a Korean director for the first time, and following director Ahn Ga-bok, Kang Woo-jin joined in as the male lead. As many as two of the main members of ‘clown’ are Korean. By chance, if Kang Woo-jin took on the male lead of ‘Clierot,’ this was a unique situation, whether in the Korean film industry or Hollywood.
The plate was so huge that it went beyond imagination.
At this point, Kang Woo-jin’s cell phone appeared in the van.
‘Ugh – it’s ringing like crazy.’
It was literally vibrating every second. Because many people other than family, acquaintances, and co-workers expressed congratulations and questions. Meanwhile, Woojin’s team members, including Choi Seong-gun, who were in the same car, quickly started monitoring.
“wow!! “There’s already been an article like this??!”
“brother! Naver Main! “My brother has already taken over!”
Numerous domestic media outlets were frenzied and were publishing articles just minutes after this scoop broke. There are no runaway locomotives.
『[Breaking News] Kang Woo-jin’s entry into Hollywood exploded with official news!』
『Hollywood’s ‘Big Five’ ‘Columbia Studios’ says, “‘Kang Woo-jin’ is a candidate for the male lead in this major new film ‘Cierrot’”』
『[Official]’Korea’s first leading role in a Hollywood movie’ Kang Woo-jin’s foreign press is also excited』
『Kang Woo-jin’s shoulder to shoulder with prominent Hollywood actors in the movie ‘Clierot’, directed by ‘Director Ahn Ga-bok’』
The Internet, which was overflowing with many issues, quickly became filled with Kang Woo-jin’s name.
『“Waiting for the screen test”… Will Kang Woo-jin be able to win the male lead role in the sensational ‘Cierrot’?』
『The ‘Cannes Best Actor Award’ was not the end. Kang Woo-jin knocked on the door of Hollywood after two years!』
The speed was faster than ever.
“Community side too!”
“They on YouTube are also really fast??”
“SNS is crazy too!”
Just a few days ago, there was a lot of trash talk about Kang Woo-jin’s entry into Hollywood, saying things like “don’t get excited, it’s bullshit, etc.”, so it was only natural that an official from LA suddenly broke out.
Does the reading feel like a reversal?
-Wow….crazy….gives me goosebumps……..
-Jjin, is this??!! Kang Woo-jin enters Hollywood?! Even Columbia Pictures? This place is fucking major, right?
– Hahahaha As soon as I saw the article, I thought it was a dream hahahaha
– I came back… Seriously, I screamed!!!!
-I never thought the day would come when I would see a Korean actor being mentioned as the lead in a Hollywood movie. LOL
– Wow!!! The soup is filling!!!!
– Hahahahaha Where have all the crazy things about Kang Woo-jin’s entry into Hollywood gone? Hahahaha.
Among the domestic public, various emotions other than surprise, shock, shock, shock, embarrassment, and excitement were overflowing.
-Wow, Kang Woo-jin is really in crazy form
– Honestly, the Best Actor award at Cannes is also crazy… In the second year, he even got a leading role in Hollywood???
-Isn’t Kang Woo-jin’s price now so high that he can no longer be seen in Korean works?
– Jepra… I hope that director Ahn’s directing will have the male lead Kang Woo-jin stuck in it
– Shim Ji-kook hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha Columbia Studio? Hahahaha, the potential is so great hahahaha
– No, looking at foreign media articles, what are the ranks of Hollywood actors who were mentioned together… .It really went away.
Since the official came out, malicious comments were extremely rare. It’s not that there is nothing at all, but the public opinion is currently busy praising Kang Woo-jin.
-Collaboration between director Gabok Ahn and Woojin Kang! My heart is getting bigger.
By the time it’s past noon, various radio stations and news outlets have quickly covered the news about Kang Woo-jin.
“Not long ago, we told you about director Ahn Ga-bok’s entry into Hollywood. This time, there is news about Kang Woo-jin, who won the Best Actor award at Cannes for ‘Leech’, entering Hollywood. Kang Woo-jin was included in the list of male leads announced by ‘Columbia Studio’, also known as the ‘Big Five’ in Hollywood, which gave director Ahn Ga-bok the megaphone. “This is Jihye Kim, reporter.”
It was definitely not an issue that could be ignored. The flow is good too. As soon as Cannes was overturned, director Anga Bok entered Hollywood, followed by Kang Woojin. The promotion of national prestige was exploding one after another.
Additionally, Japan, where ‘Leech’ is scheduled to be released soon, was not that different from Korea.
『A world star already? 「Kang Woo-jin」 Confirmed as a candidate for the male lead
in ‘Columbia Studios’ new work』 Kang Woo-jin, who has already become the first Korean actor to create a legend in Japan through animation ‘Male Friend: Remake’ and movie ‘Familiar Gisaeng’, is of course a scoop in Japan as well. It was a feeling.
Korea, Japan, and Hollywood were all boiling over.
And the next morning, Kang Woo-jin was already there.
『’Promoting Korean culture to the world’ World star Kang Woo-jin’s path [Planning]』 He
was almost treated as a world star.
Meanwhile, LA.
Unlike Korea, it is afternoon in LA. As this is the home of movies, many issues abound, and among them, the news about ‘Clierot’ was the hottest. Thanks to this, the spacious ‘Columbia Studio’ also became incredibly busy. In particular, the ‘clown’ team was special.
We are currently having a production meeting in a medium-sized meeting room.
Since the title of the work and the topic of discussion were discussed, the next step was also important. Quite a few foreigners gathered in the meeting room. Key staff, including executive producer Cady and director Anga Bok, gathered together. There were no ‘Columbia Studio’ executives in sight at this meeting.
Currently, we are talking about auditioning actors with Unplay under the supervision of a female producer.
“Let’s make noise for at least a week.”
“I’m still planning on shaking it up until next week.”
It was at this time.
Director Gabok Ang made a move.
“Hmm-”
He looked down at the candidates for the male lead role in ‘Clierrot’ on the tablet, including Kang Woo-jin, and gave an old voice to everyone. It was not fluent, but it was definitely English.
“How about making the audition screen test public?”
