I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor Chapter 408
Episode 408: Roaring Sound (3)
The American morning news that Kang Woo-jin was watching felt a bit more open compared to Korea. Because anchors were often seen making witty jokes while delivering news.
And now.
-[“Is there a movie that became a hot topic because it was said that ‘World Disney Pictures’ was producing it as a live-action movie? It’s ‘The Beast and Beauty’, and the original work was so popular around the world that there was a lot of noise when the candidate actors were announced. The actor who plays the Beast in ‘Beast and Beauty’ was confirmed yesterday.”]
Two male and female anchors and an expert guest were covering cultural issues among various news. It was ‘The Beast and Beauty’ that caught fire all night long.
-[“Among the nominated actors, actor Kang Woo-jin himself announced out of the blue on ‘The Jamie Show,’ right?”]
-[“That’s right. Afterwards, ‘World Disney Pictures’ uploaded a series of messages on their official SNS saying that it was Kang Woo-jin.”]
Anchors were printed out soon. The news screen intersected and Kang Woo-jin appeared. Although it was a combination of various photos, there were many scenes from the ‘Jamie Show’ that aired yesterday. Woojin, who saw this, forgot about the concept and was busy watching himself in the news.
“Oh, why is it amazing?”
It wasn’t a strange sight. His face is appearing on famous American news, and Kang Woo-jin is even being featured in the news. Although I had experienced it several times in Korea, when I saw myself on the news in the United States, it felt completely unfamiliar.
Then, the news screen that was displaying Woojin again showed the anchors.
-[“Kang Woo-jin’s actions are truly unique.”]
-[“Yes, he is the first Korean actor to achieve many things. From winning the Best Actor award at Cannes, to being confirmed as the male lead in the album ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’ co-produced with Miley Cara, to ‘Beneficial Evil’, which started as number one in the US, and to being confirmed for the role of ‘Beast’ in ‘Beast and Beauty’. ”]
-[“Wow, it’s even more absurd when I hear it in person. Moreover, I heard that Kang Woo-jin is the first to land a male lead for both Columbia and Disney at the same time?”] -[
“There is that, but the point to focus on is the period. “It took less than half a year for Kang Woo-jin to go from Cannes to turning Hollywood upside down.”]
The anchor and expert guests filled the corner with a bit of analysis in a conversational format. Of course, in the meantime, Kang Woo-jin’s name was mentioned countless times. There have been reports of Korea-related news on American news, but Woojin was the only one who had taken time off on his own for such a long period of time.
-[“Why is he in the spotlight of Hollywood as soon as he appears like this?”]
Kang Woo-jin, with his arms folded, reacted to the question heard in the news.
“So what? “Let’s hear the answer.”
The foreign expert with thick hair around his chin and mouth on TV answered right away.
-[“He showed unprecedented speed even in Korea. Would you believe me if I told you that it has been 3 years since Kang Woo-jin’s debut?”]
-[“3 years? Really?”]
-[“Yes. However, despite his short career, Kang Woo-jin seems secretive and eccentric. The characters are fun. According to an acquaintance who saw him in person, Kang Woo-jin may look like a novice when you look at his background, but inside he seems to be a veteran who has been honing his skills for decades. “An acquaintance described it as the aura of a star.”
The corners of Kang Woo-jin’s mouth rose for a moment.
“who is this? “Who said such an amazing thing?”
The expert on TV, who had no idea about this, spoke.
-[“Of course, his behavior as exposed in the media is not normal. He mentioned the ‘Academy Award’ without hesitation in his remarks at Cannes, which was attended by numerous Hollywood figures, and the same was true at the press conference where he announced the role of the male lead in ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’. And on ‘Jamie Show’, where he was confirmed to play the role of ‘Beast’, he proudly declared to the world’s public who were criticizing him, ‘Please criticize me after you see the work.’”] -[”
Hmm – I feel like a fearless bad boy with no brakes. It’s there for him.”]
-[“Yes. But it’s not light. Because of his skills, he is popular in Cannes and Hollywood, and his influence is currently proven by ‘Beneficial Evil’. People who criticized me also turned into fans. There may be likes and dislikes, but one thing is certain: he is the first type of actor to appear in Hollywood so far.”] -[
“Is that the driving force?”]
-[“Including those, a decent appearance, various languages, and various abilities probably also played a part. The same goes for musicality. Perhaps this ‘Beast’ role will inevitably cause strong controversy, but on the contrary, Kang Woo-jin’s popularity will continue to rise vertically.”]
Kang Woo-jin, who was listening to the explanation, showed his thumb towards the TV.
“I recognize you as an expert.”
Later, the news talked about Kang Woo-jin for a few more minutes and then changed the story. Looking at the time, it took about 10 minutes or more.
Around this time, I got a call. The opponent is Choi Seong-gun.
“Have you seen all the news?”
“Yes, CEO.”
“okay. But if Disney starts promoting it properly, it will become even more noisy. How does it feel to be the first Korean actor to be featured exclusively on the news here?”
Should I at least do a butt dance? Although it was just his intention, Woojin’s answer was calm.
“That’s just the way it is.”
Choi Seong-gun smiled over the cell phone.
“I thought so. Get ready. “I have to go to ‘World Disney Pictures.’”
Afterwards.
After meeting Seong-gun Choi and his teammates, Woo-jin Kang got into a large van. Woojin’s name rang out in English even in the van, which immediately started running quickly. It was the radio in the car. Following the American morning news, the radio was also reporting the news of ‘The Beast and Beauty’.
The team members’ fuss started right away.
However, Kang Woo-jin’s poker face was strong. Still, inside I was just amazed. How come my name is spreading throughout this wide America? The feeling I want. Woojin crossed his legs and picked up his cell phone. The first thing he accessed was YouTube. It was to check the status of the ‘Kang Woo-jin alt-character’ channel, but there was no need.
‘The reaction was crazy.’
Because Kang Woo-jin has already dominated the top 10 in real-time video.

Various YouTubers specializing in Movie Bell issues It was because YouTubers mentioned ‘Beast and Beauty’ and Kang Woo-jin. Well, it’s probably the best-selling issue right now, so it’s an obvious picture. This was similar not only to Korean YouTube, but also to American YouTube. Although Woojin did not confirm it directly, it is clear that YouTubers around the world are probably hot with the same issue.
Kang Woo-jin touched a random video on the ‘Kang Woo-jin alt character’ channel.
-Sigh.
I turned it off right away.
‘Aww, I’m seriously screwed.’
Because the comments were saturated. It was dozens of times more muddy than before. Even though it was SNS, it wasn’t quiet. It almost feels like every country in the world is rushing to Woojin’s SNS, as if they’re making fun of YouTube. Here, Kang Woo-jin laughed for some reason.
‘I’m tired of Hollywood’s power.’
The media’s public opinion was more than a roar. Globally. Of course, that world included Korea, and it was more extreme than any other country.

One day passes.

ha
ha. ? I heard it’s not even in Hollywood?

– Ah, but I don’t care about Kang Woo-jin’s beast
– ↑ is a bastard who hasn’t seen any of Kang Woo-jin’s works
– Kang Woo-jin’s form running wild with a booster at Cannes is crazy!!!!
– Kang Woo-jin always had controversies regardless of his work. This time, even Stranger Things did the same. But Ji-ri always ignored the controversy with her acting. Even
after two days, it didn’t calm down. On the contrary, the roaring continued to intensify. If it had been uproarious only in Korea, there would have been limits, but as the world, including the United States, was in turmoil, there was no one to stop this disturbing trend.
Is this a controversy that is spreading like a trend?
– Hahaha. Major overseas YouTubers also made a fuss about Kang Woo-jin.
The media around the world threw firewood at him, and many people, including famous YouTubers and internet broadcaster influencers, were the ones pouring fuel on the fan.
There were clear likes and dislikes.
But the more it happens.
-Chris Hartnett mentioned Kang Woo-jin on social media. Kang Woo-jin’s acting is crazy.
Strangely enough, Kang Woo-jin’s global recognition has soared exponentially.

And.
『Kang Woo-jin’s ‘Beneficial Evil’ goes all the way to the U.S. Emmy Awards… Foreign press “He has the qualifications to be a candidate”
The crazy momentum of ‘Beneficial Evil’ was still there.
About a week later on the 28th. L.A.
While Kang Woo-jin’s global recognition was growing day by day, the 28th, the last day of February, dawned. The time is around 10 am. The location was ‘spt studio’, a huge set complex of over 50,000 pyeong where the actual filming of ‘Beast and Beauty’ was to take place. Among the many warehouse-type stages, the front of the stage where the audition for the role of ‘Beast’ was held was crowded.
Several vans, trucks and buses are parked, and easily over a hundred foreigners are running around them.
Of course, the staff of ‘Beast and Beauty’.
A large white van had just arrived in front of the stage. and.
-Sigh.
A foreign woman with impressive brown eyes and large eye area got out of the car. Clear facial features, sharp nose, thick eyebrows, and flowing hair that is brown on the top of the head but turns blonde towards the shoulders. Even though she was wearing a moderate hood, her beauty stood out.
The aura is unusual.
It was natural. Because she is one of Hollywood’s top actors.
Soon she was joined by foreign team members.
“You have to enter the Maria set, say hello to the team, and then put on the dress costume.”
Maria. To be exact, her name was Maria Armas. Although he is originally from Spain, he is currently working as a top actor in Hollywood. When Maria heard the muscular man’s words, she spoke English with a small sigh.
“It’s just an audition screen test. Do I have to wear a dress?”
“What can I do? You know that ‘World Disney Pictures’ is meticulous, right? So does director Bill Lautner. “During the audition for the role of ‘Beast,’ all the male actors wore ball gowns. Let’s stop complaining and wear them.”
“It’s a hassle.”
“Then are you just going to give up the role of ‘Beautiful Bella’?”
Maria frowns.
“it’s crazy? Who do you like? I can’t see Miley smiling. The media is already comparing him and me. Ah, why am I the first to start?”
“I wonder why I don’t get along with Miley Kara so well.”
“It’s just polar opposites, I definitely felt it when we worked together in the past.”
It was like that. Today was the official audition day for the role of ‘Beautiful Bella’ in ‘The Beast and Beauty’. In other words, Maria is one of the five nominated actors. Soon, Maria, who was sweeping her brown and blonde hair, moved.
“But why is that actor participating in today’s audition?”
“That actor?”
“You know, from Korea.”
“Ah, Kang Woo-jin.”
The muscular man shrugged his shoulders.
“well. It’s not exact, but I think the production team is trying to combine ‘Beast’ and ‘Beautiful Bella’. ‘The Beast’ has already been confirmed to be Kang Woo-jin.”
Maria, who was pursed her lips in frustration, grumbled.
“I don’t like him.”
“There are a lot of Maria people.”
She suddenly stopped walking and spoke again as she looked at the huge warehouse-type stage in front.
“Is it really that bad?”
It wasn’t English this time. It was Spanish.
“I saw Kang Woo-jin’s interview at Cannes and ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain.’ He ignored the ‘Academy Awards’ and looked down on it. I also haven’t won an award yet… And Kang Woo-jin doesn’t fit the role of ‘Beast.’”
The muscular man sighed.
“Maria, please speak English. “You don’t know what I’m talking about.”
But Maria’s Spanish continued.
“He’s just a little short of ‘The Beast.’ No, it doesn’t suit the ‘prince’ more than the ‘beast’. “The ‘prince’ should be more handsome.”
It was at this time.
“That’s too bad.”
A low tone of fluent Spanish spoke from behind. Thanks to this, everyone from Maria to her team turned their heads. A black-haired man was walking behind him.
-Sigh.
It was Kang Woo-jin.
With an indifferent face, he arrived at a short distance from Maria, and when she saw Woojin, Maria’s big eyes grew even wider. Either way, Kang Woojin spoke calmly to her.
“You’re uglier than Miley Cara.”
As expected, it was native-level Spanish.
