Roaring sound (2)

 

Chris Hartnett suddenly stops watching  TV with his brown eyes wide open. It was an embarrassment rarely seen from the Hollywood superstar. So much so that he dropped the potato chip he was bringing to his mouth onto the floor.

“······uh? what?”

His eyes are fixed on Kang Woo-jin  on TV.

“really? really?”

It was a very shocked face. It was worth it. Kang Woo-jin, who appeared on America’s No. 1 viewership show ‘The Jamie Show’, suddenly made a bombshell announcement.

-[“No, I am not a candidate actor, the role of ‘Beast’ has been confirmed for me.”]

It has been the biggest topic of controversy among the world’s public ever since it was revealed to the world. Kang Woo-jin, one of the nominated actors, said he had been confirmed for the role of ‘Beast’. It was an announcement that came out of nowhere, like a bolt of lightning from a dry sky, without any foreshadowing or promotion.

There it is.

“Oh my god… but you’re talking about such a nuclear bomb-level announcement so harshly?”

Kang Woo-jin’s face on TV was so calm that it even felt boring. It means that she is not that special. Perhaps that’s why Chris, who stopped moving and kept his eyes fixed on the TV, thought for a moment that his hearing was wrong.

‘Did I hear wrong?’ A feeling of degree.

Chris barely came to his senses and lifted the remote control to increase the volume. Soon, the TV host also asked Woojin back with a slight look of confusion on her face.

-[“···yes? Kang Woo-jin, what did you just say-”]

That’s right, that’s exactly what I want to say. Chris, who felt the same way as the host, stared at the TV with a stern expression. Nothing changed. Because Kang Woo-jin gave a short answer this time in a low tone of voice.

-[“I was told that the role of ‘Beast’ was confirmed to be me.”]

-[“oh!! really? Really?”]

-[“yes.”]

-[“It’s okay, but you said it so quietly that it’s even harder to believe it? “Is this a joke?”]

-[“I don’t particularly enjoy pranks.”]

Kang Woo-jin on TV gave an appropriate answer, this time looking at the camera. In other words, he said it again while looking at the viewers watching this ‘Jamie Show’.

-[“I decided to take on the role of ‘Beast’, and this is true.”]

Chris Hartnett, who was watching TV, had a noticeable reaction at this time. He immediately shook his head and laughed out loud.

“ha ha ha! this! It’s really amazing?? From ‘Joker’ to ‘Beast’? “This is my first time seeing something like this. I thought it couldn’t happen in Hollywood in the first place.”

His common sense was obvious. There are many top actors in Hollywood, but it is safe to say that the current actor Kang Woo-jin is the first actor to appear and play the lead role in a large-scale production. Even Woojin is a Korean actor. Even though this Hollywood is not even in the front yard, it is creating a stir by establishing the first.

Plus.

“······‘Columbia Studios’ and ‘World Disney Pictures’ are hiring the same actor.”

It was also unprecedented for two huge dinosaur film companies, known as Hollywood’s ‘Big Five’, to cast the same actor as the lead at the same time. Well, it may be possible to get a candidate actor depending on various circumstances or luck, but actually landing a lead role is definitely an area that cannot be achieved by luck. This was proof that the two film companies were so infatuated with Kang Woo-jin that they turned a blind eye to various interests, respect, and traditions.

Chris Hartnett knew this person better than anyone else, having lived in this vast Hollywood for over a dozen years.

“What was difficult even with my ten years of experience – that Korean actor did it in less than a year? “It’s interesting, but it also makes me a little jealous.”

However, Chris soon remembers Woojin’s performance as ‘Joker’ in the past.

“The ‘Beast’ must have also shown the ‘real’ side. So that ‘World Disney Pictures’ has no choice but to catch it.”

When Chris, a little helpless, sank his back into the sofa, the host of ‘The Jamie Show’ was in full excitement  on TV.

-[“wow! There is nothing light about the episodes related to you?! Even before the story of ‘Cliller: Birth of a Villain’ started, a bomb exploded related to ‘Beast and Beauty’! First of all, congratulations!! I think it’s a great achievement.”]

-[“thank you.”]

-[“But is it okay to suddenly make such a large announcement here?”]

-[“of course. I thought it would be okay to do ‘Jamie Show’.”]

-[“Haha, this is an honor? “Have you had any discussions with Disney?”]

-[“yes. “This has already been discussed in advance.”]

Unlike the excited host, Kang Woo-jin was solemn. Then the host.

-[“After this broadcast, not only Hollywood but the whole world will be in an uproar! “It’s already a hot topic!”

As the bomb exploded, questions continued to be asked about ‘The Beast and Beauty’.

-[“Due to the timing, you joined ‘The Beast and the Beauty’ almost immediately following ‘Cierrot.’ How did you feel when you received the call that you had been accepted?”]

-[“Of course, I was happy.”]

-[“haha. I think you’re quite calm now, don’t you think? “Maybe you expected it a little bit?”]

-[“To some extent.”]

The surprised host pointed at the camera this time.

-[“Is there anything you want to say to the viewers watching this show?”]

 On TV, Kang Woo-jin indifferently answered the viewers.

-[“For me, ‘The Beast and Beauty’ is a precious work filled with memories, and I will do my best to make sure there are no regrets. It’s normal for actors to do whatever it takes to get a role, but I think I’ll be a little more bold this time. We have to do whatever we can to achieve synchronization with the ‘Beast’ so that everyone can become a ‘Beast’ that everyone is satisfied with. Even if you shave your head. I think it’s okay to swear after seeing the work.”]

To put it simply, it was like telling me not to make a fuss in advance.

Chris Hartnett, who saw this, laughed and recited.

“It’s going to burn brightly.”

after.

After dropping the nuclear bomb related to his role as ‘Beast’, Kang Woo-jin covered various topics on ‘The Jamie Show’. Not only ‘Beast and Beauty’, but also ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’, ‘Beneficial Evil’ that has turned the world upside down, Woojin’s SNS, ‘Kang Woojin alt’ channel, etc. Part 2 of ‘Beneficial Evil’ was also briefly mentioned.

It was late at night when the ‘Jamie Show’, which was so nuclear and full of attractions, ended.

However, the United States, including Hollywood, was not quiet.

“I can’t sit still, I wonder what other people think? “First of all, I need to get back to you.”

Chris, who was sitting in front of the TV, started calling his fellow actors, and Miley Cara, who was watching ‘The Jamie Show’ at home, did the same. She was several times more excited than Chris.

“also!! I knew Kang Woo-jin would have eaten ‘The Beast’! Still, isn’t that crazy? “They’re going to announce it right away on ‘The Jamie Show’ with no end in sight?!”

The rumor spread at the speed of light among Hollywood actors who were contacted by the two and had seen ‘Jamie Shaw’ in person. Actors who auditioned for ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’ with Woojin.

“Oh my – this is ridiculous, he really decided to do ‘The Beast’? Columbia and Disney at the same time?”

And the actors who auditioned for the role of ‘Beast’.

“I understand that it didn’t work out for me! “Isn’t it strange that Kang Woo-jin was confirmed for the role of ‘Beast’!!”

Actors who saw Kang Woo-jin at Cannes, people who felt interested or uncomfortable with his appearance, etc. Regardless of the industry other than actor, singer, or broadcaster, Woojin’s absurd actions were quickly noticed. It was a completely natural phenomenon. Because an unprecedented situation was unfolding without any notice.

Hollywood was quickly shaken.

Immediately after the end of ‘Jamie Show’, which ranked #1 in viewer ratings in the United States, foreign media poured out related articles as if they had been waiting for it.

『LA TIME/Kang Woo-jin, the first Korean actor to appear on ‘The Jamie Show’ “I am the Beast”』

『Kang Woo-jin plays the role of ‘Beast’ in BBX/’World Disney Pictures’ live-action adaptation of ‘Beast and Beauty’, which he himself revealed!』

『Kang Woo-jin announced on CNM/Jamie Show that he has been confirmed for the role of ‘Beast’! Following ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’, right up to ‘The Beast and Beauty’?

It was a foreign media that took the form of a hot fan whose build-up had already been completed with ‘Clierot’ and ‘Beneficial Evil’.

『NT/“The Beast is Me” Kang Woo-jin, who confirmed his direct casting, said to fans around the world, “Swear only after seeing the work.”』

Kang Woo-jin’s sudden declaration was like pouring water on a hot pan.

『Kang Woo-jin confirmed for the role of ABY/’Beast’, it is quite unusual for ‘Columbia Studios’ and ‘World Disney Pictures’ to confirm the same actor at a similar time』

‘World Disney Pictures’ released an official statement as if they had been waiting. It was an official SNS channel.

-[Hello, this is World Disney Pictures. Kang Woo-jin has been confirmed to play the role of ‘Beast’ in ‘Beast and Beauty’. We have high expectations from him and believe that Kang Woo-jin has completed ‘The Beast’. We ask for the support of fans who love ‘Beast and Beauty’…]

It was an announcement with perfect timing. Aside from ‘Columbia Studios’ and numerous film and production companies in Hollywood, the attention of everyone was focused on Kang Woo-jin.

『LA TIME/’World Disney Pictures’ confirmed and acknowledged Kang Woo-jin on official SNS channel, the first comment was ‘Columbia Studios’』

But what was more excited than anything else at this time was the public.

-Fuck!!! Seriously?? (Fucking roughly! Really?)

Of course, the first to react were overseas viewers who watched ‘Jamie Show’.

-really? Are you sure?? Is it true that Kang Woo-jin ended up playing the beast??!!

-I thought everyone would be surprised, I was watching Jamie’s show and spit out the beer I was drinking when Kang Woo-jin’s presentation was made.

-Disney…is it disappointing?

-Everyone’s in a strange mood? I think it’s okay for him to play the beast.

-lie! No, wasn’t Kang Woo-jin only a clown?? why!!

-It is necessary to guess why major Hollywood film companies covet him, because it is true that Kang Woo-jin is causing a fresh typhoon in Hollywood, from good to bad.

-shut up!! I can’t admit it!

This quickly spread to the public around the world. Many communities and SNS around the world were filled with Kang Woo-jin, ‘Jamie Shaw’, ‘Beast and Beauty’, etc. in just a few tens of minutes.

It happened exactly one hour after the ‘Jamie Show’ ended.

Morning, Kang Woo-jin’s LA house.

The time was past 9 o’clock. Woojin woke up from the bed.

“Ugh!”

Even as I stretched, I immediately grabbed my phone. As of now, messages such as chat and DM were arriving, but his cell phone was quiet. Because I changed it to silent. Of course, Woojin also watched ‘The Jamie Show’ last night.

“Ugh, sir, why are you so scared?”

This was because right after that, there was a vibration that was unbearable. First of all, Woojin looked through his absence. There were over 20 messages. There are no parents or Kang Hyeon-ah. Because Woojin had already contacted me before ‘Jamie Show’. What about Talk? Saturation. Not only my friends, but also many top Korean actors including Hwarin, Hong Hye-yeon, and Ryu Jung-min. There are also many congratulatory messages from major directors such as producer Song Man-woo and director Kwon Ki-taek.

And on the DM side.

“It’s a mess, it’s a mess.”

It was similar to Talk, but the language was different. We were filled with contacts from actors and figures, mainly from Japan and Hollywood. Joseph Felton, a famous Hollywood producer, was also seen. It is impossible to reply to these one by one.

-Sigh.

Woojin first put down his cell phone. Soon, a smile spreads across my face.

“Well, is this as expected? Hehehe, this is just the beginning.”

The story goes that the craze starts now. After all, nuclear bombs are thrilling. Woojin, who seemed to be enjoying himself, picked up his cell phone again. Unlike LA, which was in the morning, the purpose was to check Korea’s reaction on an early morning. Even if you don’t look at it, it’s obvious that an earthquake occurred.

“Let’s see-”

Seeing this in person feels different. What is displayed on Woojin’s cell phone screen is Korea’s No. 1 search site.

and.

『[Breaking News] Kang Woo-jin confirmed to appear in ‘Beast’ of ‘World Disney Pictures’ live-action adaptation of ‘Beast and Beauty’』

Kang Woo-jin’s name filled the main search site. About 10 hours have passed since ‘The Jamie Show’ aired, so it would have already reached Korea. It probably got momentum within 30 minutes of the end of ‘The Jamie Show’.

At this time.

“hmm?”

It was silent, so there was no vibration, but Woojin’s cell phone screen changed. A phone call came. The opponent was Choi Seong-gun. Kang Woo-jin cleared his throat and lowered his voice as he put his cell phone to his ear.

“Yes, CEO.”

Choi Seong-geon looked over the cell phone and was in a hurry.

“Woojin! Turn on the  TV! “Right now!”

Woojin, equipped with a concept vagina, tilted his head and moved to the living room on the first floor. He held the remote control on the table and turned on the channel that Choi Seong-gun had told him about. The news was being broadcast. Of course, it was American news, and it was a famous broadcasting station that even Woojin knew about.

The funny thing is.

‘Wow, I’m coming out!’

Kang Woo-jin was appearing on the American morning news.
