I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor Chapter 404
Episode 404: Full Bloom (10)
Around the afternoon of the 12th.
Kang Woo-jin, who finished the ‘Beast and Beauty’ audition in the morning, was now in a van driving on the road. She wore a pretty thick gray blazer, had full makeup on, and her hair was stylish. This is because there was an interview with a famous Hollywood media outlet just before.
-Boo!
After completing the interview for about an hour, Kang Woo-jin’s team is moving to have a meal. The menu was pizza. Because there was a recommendation from Han Ye-jeong that there was a good restaurant nearby. Anyway, Kang Woo-jin, crossing his legs and looking out the window, muttered to himself with a dark expression on his face.
‘Hmm – Is the audition for the role of ‘Beast’ almost over? Or is it still in progress?’
I was curious again. ‘Clierot’ was an open audition, so I was able to see the end, but ‘Beast and Beauty’ was a private audition, so more curiosity arose. Soon Choi Seong-geon, on the right, seemed to feel the same way, looking at his cell phone clock and muttering.
“There are four people behind you, Woojin. Well, due to timing, I think the audition and screen test for the role of ‘Beast’ have all been completed. Or the last batter. “I’m curious what the director and production staff think, what is their final reaction?”
Team members, including stylists, participated. He said he wanted to see it too and that the scale of the ‘Beast and Beauty’ filming set was crazy. Kang Woo-jin was also curious, but he pretended not to and cast Strong Chuck.
“I will contact you soon.”
“A phone call that you passed?”
“yes.”
“Anyway, is there no Hujin in your head?”
“maybe.”
At this time.
-Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.
Kang Woo-jin’s cell phone vibrated for a long time. I looked at the caller and it was Miley Kara. In response, Woojin, who put his cell phone to his ear, spat out broken English.
“Yes, hello.”
Kara’s slightly flushed voice was heard through the phone.
“huh. I remembered it and called. “Did you audition for the role of ‘Beast’?”
“yes.”
“how is it?”
“What are you asking?”
“It’s just about how it feels. “Do you think I saw it well?”
“maybe.”
“…I’m confused. Anyway, I got a call from my friend and he said we met. “Didn’t you see it?”
Kara explained about her friend. Woojin remembered the permed-haired Hollywood actor he saw earlier.
“I saw it. “I didn’t say hello.”
“I think they will do it because they think Woojin is a competitor. Hmm – I sincerely hope Woojin, who plays the ‘Beast’, eats it. “You know this is a first in Hollywood, right?”
“That’s what I heard.”
Kara, the candidate for the role of ‘Beautiful Bella’, smiled slightly and changed the topic.
“I heard that the audition and screen test for the role of ‘Beautiful Bella’ will be held after the actor for the role of ‘Beast’ is confirmed.”
Oh yeah? I didn’t know that. Woojin answered casually.
“Is that so?”
“yes. The actor who plays ‘The Beast’ will probably also attend the audition for the role of ‘Beautiful Bella’. Let’s guess the ‘Beauty Bella’ candidates for ‘Beast’. “Woojin will probably look at all the ‘Beautiful Bella’ nominees, including me, right?”
“…It’s not confirmed yet.”
“Oh, that’s right. It did?”
After answering with laughter, Kara spoke again.
“Personally, I want to sing to Woojin’s piano as ‘Beautiful Bella.’”
Meanwhile.
‘spt studio’ is a 50,000 pyeong set complex where the live-action ‘Beast and Beauty’ will be filmed. Among the many huge warehouse-type stages, the audition for the role of ‘Beast’ was held from the morning, and about 100 foreign staff members were moving around busily.
I’m in the middle of cleaning up.
Because the audition and screen test for the role of ‘Beast’ have been completed. Therefore, the lighting, cameras, and audio equipment installed in the set banquet hall were once again transported by truck. Meanwhile, director Bill Lautner, with his head half bald, was seen near the golden piano in a banquet hall decorated with colorful patterns.
“……”
Unlike the 100 or so frantic staff members, he looks down at the piano with a serious expression. He seemed to be recalling the audition scenes from the morning, and an executive producer was appointed next to director Bill Lautner.
“Director, what are you thinking?”
Director Bill Lautner took off the black horn-rimmed glasses he was wearing and laughed.
“I’m not thinking, but my thoughts are coming out on their own. Violently.”
“…Kang Woo-jin?”
Director Bill Lautner, who did not immediately answer the question, looked around the banquet hall built as a set. It was a very detailed and well-made set. In fact, it could be used as a real banquet hall. Kang Woo-jin, who ran amok here. No, it made no sense as a director to forget ‘The Beast’. At least that’s what director Bill Lautner thought.
“The presence was enough to express the appearance, personality, and life of ‘The Beast’ just by playing the piano. I have never seen such absurd performance in my life. Plus, the vocals and acting…”
He trailed off and made eye contact with the executive producer.
“Why did he appear out of nowhere and win the Best Actor Award at Cannes? Why is the ‘Academy Award’ easily mentioned? He was even confirmed as the male lead in ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain.’ “I understand why it’s shaking up Hollywood right now.”
“……Well, I have similar thoughts. “Disney executives even called him a ‘monster.’”
“I’m dying to put on makeup.”
“yes?”
Director Bill Lautner thinks of Kang Woo-jin, who is no longer there.
“I want to see Kang Woo-jin as a true ‘beast’. To be honest, today’s other actors were not lacking. We should get together later and have an in-depth meeting about today’s audition. “I know that Disney has to pay attention to Kang Woo-jin’s controversy and the world’s public opinion.”
“……”
“But I revealed my true feelings to you early on.”
Director Bill Lautner expressed his sincerity to the executive producer of ‘Beast and Beauty.’
“Right now, I can’t think of anything other than ‘Beast’ Kang Woo-jin.”
Afterwards.
The news that the audition and screen test for the role of ‘Beast’ had been completed spread throughout Hollywood the next day, the 13th. Since it was a work that enjoyed such global popularity, there was no way the foreign media would miss this news.
『LA TIME/’World Disney Pictures’ live-action adaptation of ‘Beast and Beauty’ seems to have finished auditioning for the role of ‘Beast’ yesterday』 This
issue, which quickly spread, once again caused controversy in communities around the world. Of course, Kang Woo-jin’s name was very prevalent. It was a hot topic since he was nominated for the role of ‘Beast’, and it became even worse after he played the male lead in ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’.
What is it about him that Hollywood falls in love with him so much?
However, there were some things that were a little different from the beginning. The reaction of the overseas public has become a little more negative.
-I’m not saying that Kang Woo-jin as the Beast is ridiculous. Everyone wants to see good evil, right?
-I agree too. He is handsome and good at acting, so I thought Kang Woo-jin was a good fit for the role of Beast, and
he was the force of ‘beneficial evil’ that suddenly took the world by storm. For reference, ‘Beneficial Evil’ is currently available about 10 days after launch.
『’I spent the whole night watching just one episode’… The whole world is now suffering from ‘beneficial evil’”
It was literally a disaster.

even.

It was on its way to reaching No. 1 on Netflix in over 20 countries.
Countries around the world have been talking about ‘beneficial evil’.
-I didn’t know much about Korea, but after seeing Good Evil, I wanted to go to Korea!!
-When is part 2 of this coming out? Do some Netflix work!
-I’m looking for a Korean drama on Netflix because of Beneficial Evil, but there’s nothing like Beneficial Evil.
-The action is worth watching, but the story isn’t that great. I don’t know why it’s such a hot topic?
-I also have a hard time concentrating
-For the first time, I’m interested in a Korean actor… Kang Woo-jin was so cool
that it was like a global syndrome.
『The ‘beneficial evil’ that the whole world is passionate about is breaking Korean records… Kang Woo-jin’s global recognition explodes exponentially!』
Just like that, a day passed on the 14th.

was the first Korean drama to be ranked number 1 in the world.
A bit far from downtown LA at this time.
You can see a fairly large two-story building. It is mostly gray and surrounded by transparent windows. A large garden with many trees surrounds the building. In some ways, there was something that was not that surprising in this vast LA, but it was definitely noticeable.
It was a large statue in front of the building.
This statue, which is more than three times the size of a person, depicts a winged woman holding a sphere and looking at the sky. At first glance, it is reminiscent of a trophy.
Actually, this statue was a trophy.
It’s just an enlargement of the original trophy size.
In fact, the trophy, which depicts a winged woman holding a sphere and looking at the sky, was incredibly famous not only in the United States but also around the world. The ‘Academy Award’ in the film world and the ‘Tony Award’ in the theater and musical world. And in the broadcasting world, the ‘Primetime Emmy Awards’. It is commonly called the ‘Emmy Award’ and this statue of a woman was the trophy of the ‘Emmy Award’.
The ‘Emmy Awards’ was the world’s most prestigious awards ceremony in the broadcasting industry, so much so that it was called the ‘Academy Awards’ of the broadcasting industry.
Therefore, it was natural for the world’s broadcasting industry to risk their lives to participate in this awards ceremony. The ‘Emmy Awards’ includes not only global terrestrial broadcasters, but also cable and several OTT platforms. Like Cannes, it is divided into several sections, of which the main one is the ‘Primetime Emmy Awards’ and is usually called the ‘Emmy Awards’. Of course, there is also the Best Actor Award.
Anyway, the reason why the ‘Emmy Award’ trophy statue was proudly erected in front of this building was simple.
Because this is where the ‘Emmy Awards’ are hosted.
It is called the Academy of Television Arts (ATAS) and hosts the ‘Primetime Emmy Awards’ every year. What’s interesting is that foreigners of various ages gathered in a meeting room in the building where this organization is located.
“It’s called ‘beneficial evil.’ The momentum is unique.”
The Korean work ‘Beneficial Evil’ is being spit out from their mouths.
“I agree, it went to number one in the U.S. just one day after it opened on Netflix. “It is the first Korean work.”
“That’s not the end. We have now reached first place in over 20 countries, and the remaining 50 countries are also in second or higher rankings.”
“We have gone beyond an unusual trend. “The original title is also updated every day.”
What can I say, the conversation between dozens of people gathered was very serious.
“Currently, Netflix is number one in the world. “There are only a few American dramas that have this record, right?”
“There will need to be an accurate investigation, but it’s probably just one hand.”
“The work itself is fun and well-chosen, and the directing is good, especially the action scenes.”
“Kang Woo-jin – definitely worthy of causing a sensation. Following Kahn, ‘Clero: Birth of a Villain’ and ‘Beast and Beauty’ were released at the same time… Meanwhile, even ‘Beneficial Evil’ exploded around the world. “Is this possible?”
“It’s possible, so it must have happened in reality.”
“Anyway, it’s clear that this ‘beneficial evil’ and Kang Woo-jin caused a miracle.”
“Kang Woo-jin’s miracle is currently ongoing.”
For your information, the ‘Primetime Emmy Awards’ will be held in August with a grand opening after collecting nominated works from April of last year to April of this year and passing numerous jury members’ votes and processes. It is now February, so it is time to collect works that will become candidates.
At this time, a foreigner with a thick mustache spoke.
“‘Beneficial Evil’ – Is it okay to put it as a nominated work?”
The pot-bellied foreigner crossed his arms and answered.
“We might need to watch a little more. But I think it’s enough if the momentum continues.”
As a result, most of the gathered foreigners nodded. Soon, the foreigner with a pot-bellied stomach spoke again.
“If ‘Beneficial Evil’ gets an official nomination, it will be the first non-English language work to do so.”
‘Beneficial evil’ was recognized at the ‘Emmy Awards’.
