Appearance (3)

 

In fact, the Hollywood actors gathered at this script reading room had different perspectives on Kang Woo-jin. There was curiosity, jealousy, envy, or doubt. There were also actors who I couldn’t understand.

Because Kang Woo-jin showed very abnormal behavior.

No matter how good he was, the sight of a Korean actor with no experience in Hollywood running wild was quite unfamiliar to everyone here. All of those Hollywood actors were silent while looking at Woojin.

His eyes are wide and his actions are motionless.

“······”

“······”

Meanwhile, Chris Hartnett looked at Kang Woo-jin right next to him and smiled slightly. And then he asked back.

“It’s a script reading, so is it appropriate?”

Woojin, with a hard face, nodded.

“yes.”

Chris burst out laughing at the simple answer. I asked because I felt a little weak, but Woojin gave that answer so confidently without paying attention to those around him.

‘Even if you really did it properly, you usually don’t answer so openly. Speak softly or turn around. But this man – there’s nothing ordinary about him.’

What can I say, it was the same even when we first met, but for Chris, Kang Woo-jin was a living being he had never seen before. The more I looked at it, the more it became like that. So she didn’t even know that her curiosity and interest were increasing. Chris looked at Kang Woo-jin for a moment and then smiled slightly.

“Haha, I see. “That’s why it felt a little different than when I auditioned.”

Kang Woo-jin stares at Chris Hartnett, who smiles as if he is tired of it. Although she had a serious expression on her face, there was a question mark on her mind.

‘why? what? Why are you smiling, you idiot? ‘It’s right to relax a little when reading the script, right?’

In fact, Kang Woo-jin did not do his best during the script reading for ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’. I appropriately removed about 30% of the force. No, that’s what you mostly do when reading a script, right? However, it wasn’t something that was done roughly. He came wearing the national team name tag, so he definitely showed off his skills. But now I just adjusted the coolness and strength.

‘I think it would be fun to make all the foreigners here go crazy – but if you’re too desperate, you might look weak.’

Woojin glanced around.

‘Well, even if I did it in moderation, it seems like I was shocked enough to fall asleep?’

The wide eyes and facial expressions of Hollywood actors were like that. A dazed face. It was quite intentional, but it seemed to work.

‘I was wondering how to show off, but Chris came in at the right time, thank you.’

As this was my first outing here, I needed to set a solid image. If you look arrogant in the face of ‘Fuck My Way’, it was a success. But it wasn’t unnecessary bravado. Because he was a strongman with a basis. This was exactly how Kang Woo-jin felt, the intention he had in mind. It was similar to the past ‘Profiler Hanryang’.

It’s like a self-introduction. It’s their first time seeing Kang Woo-jin.

However, contrary to Woojin’s intentions, something amplified around him. That something starts with Chris Hartnett.

‘Yes… this may be the man’s tendency, but the reason he spoke so confidently was to instill a clear difference in level among the actors gathered here.’

It quickly spread among the dozens of Hollywood actors gathered.

‘Moderately? Are you saying that all the acting you’ve shown so far hasn’t been up to par? Does that make sense? But if it’s true – did you tell us the gap?’

‘···what. There is no way to show bluff in this situation. Chris’ reaction is also strange. Does this mean that the real Kang Woo-jin he saw remains? Kang Woo-jin said her acting was exciting so far? why? Could it be that your intention is to suppress me?’

‘Oh my God, then what happens to the shock I received? I ended up with my mouth wide open after only moderate acting. It’s not just me, it’s the same for everyone here. Is it intimidating? To prevent anyone from making noise?’

‘The things you just said were great! But the real thing is different??! this!! Are you outright trying to put pressure on us?!’

It was an illusion and misunderstanding. They made their own decisions and amplified the answers infinitely. The first shock is that Woojin’s crazy acting that has captivated everyone here in the reading room so far is only ‘moderate’. The second is that he hid the truth and made everyone lose their minds with his strong acting.

Those things were done casually in a reading room where this big man was gathered?

‘What is distribution… no, is he just a crazy person?’

For some reason, the tension in the reading room increased several times. The Hollywood actors looked at Woojin’s cynical face and expanded their thoughts, and Kang Woojin, who had already turned his attention to the scenario, maintained his concept.

‘It’s going to pierce your face, you guys.’

Foreign reporters watching this began to open their mouths one by one.

“what? “The acting I saw from Kang Woo-jin wasn’t 100%?”

“You said that, you just said that. “I did it in moderation.”

“Does that make sense? I even got goosebumps. “That’s enough – it must have been a joke.”

“no. Chris asked first. He must have seen Kang Woo-jin’s performance in person during the audition. “It’s definitely not 100%.”

“······Kang Woo-jin performed this performance intentionally. “Is it because you lack confidence in everyone’s eyes?”

Officials and team members of Hollywood actors also began to murmur. With about a hundred people gathered, it quickly became crowded. However, the general producer of ‘Clierrot’ and some executives of ‘Columbia Studios’ did not have any particular reaction.

Because they saw Kang Woo-jin’s real acting during the audition.

This means that he was aware that Woojin had lost his strength once the script reading started. Soon, director Anga Bok smiles from his wrinkled mouth.

‘I remember the time of ‘Leech’.’

He had already had great experience with Kang Woo-jin. In the past, he too had been impressed by Woojin’s ‘proper’ acting that took away his strength.

‘But when the first actual filming started, I couldn’t help but be shocked when I saw the ‘real thing’. ‘I didn’t know there was something even greater hidden there.’

Director Ahn Ga-bok, who had been looking at Woojin for a moment, shifted his gaze. From Hollywood actors who experienced the monster Kang Woo-jin for the first time, their staff, key staff, reporters, etc. Everyone’s faces were quite worth seeing.

‘Shall we detonate another nuclear bomb?’

There was nothing bad about this heightened atmosphere for director Anga Bok. Even when filming ‘Leech’, Woojin set the standard for all acting, including the character of Shim Shim-ho. As a result, the overall quality of the actors’ acting improved.

Next, director Gabok Ang.

-Sigh.

While rubbing my chin, I called out to Kang Woo-jin right in front of me. And then he asked in English.

“Is it possible to play all other roles besides ‘Henry Gordon’ in ‘Clierrot: Birth of a Villain’ this time?”

All of the more than 100 foreigners in Reading, including Chris and Hollywood actors and director Ang Bok, narrowed their eyes. What does this mean again? A feeling like that.

However, Kang Woo-jin’s low-toned English was very simple.

“No problem.”

Although everyone was shocked for a moment, the script reading for ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’ continued. However, everyone’s dumbfounded state continued. Chris Hartnett was so curious that he offered his role to Kang Woo-jin.

“If other roles are really possible, I’d like to see mine.”

Permission from director Gabok Ang and executive producer was quickly given. Then, Kang Woo-jin once again turned the lead over. Because I showed Chris’ role right away without any preparation time. When Chris sees this, he feels like the monster he is witnessing.

‘This goes far beyond the level of being good at acting – what are you asking? god?’

I realized that although they had the same shape, the kernels were completely different. The script reading, full of shock and fear, ended only in the late afternoon. The reaction of the gathered actors was mixed. Either cling to Kang Woo-jin and ask him questions, or run away from the reading room without hesitation.

Either way, it had nothing to do with Kang Woo-jin.

‘Yes, satisfied.’

Reporters who attended the reading also quickly left the venue. However, they did not run away. I was just desperate to report what I saw today as quickly as possible and within the scope permitted by Columbia Studio.

It was a few tens of minutes later that articles about the script reading for ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’ began to spread throughout Hollywood.

『CNM/After completing the script reading for ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’, Kang Woo-jin who appeared at the reading was a monster!』

『LA TIME/Kang Woo-jin made everyone freeze at the script reading for ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’, he will easily take over Hollywood』

Kang Woo-jin’s name was prominently featured in the headlines of most articles. Kang Woo-jin, who was traveling in a van, confirmed this. He is calm on the outside, but smiles on the inside.

‘Kkeuk, why are you sucking me like this again?’

Kang Woo-jin checked foreign news articles for a few minutes and then skimmed through the Korean media. The issue of being nominated for the ‘Emmy Award’ for Best Actor is still hot.

-Kang Woo-jin is a legend.

– Hahahahahaha 10 Emmy Awards hahahahaha I never thought I would see something like this in real life.

-When Benevolent Evil was first released, I had no idea it would become this far… I never thought it would become so popular overseas… It’s somehow touching.

-ㅠㅠㅠㅜㅜㅠㅜ Song Man-woo and Kang Woo-jin, thank you for shining Korea ㅠㅠㅠ

-I feel really proud every time I see it!! He’s only been nominated so far, but he’s already a legend! If I continue to win awards like this, my heart will explode.

-What’s so great about this is that the Emmy Awards themselves were a huge hit, and the American drama Subtle Story 2 was a huge hit, but it didn’t come because a beneficial evil suppressed it.

-Kang Woo-jin is truly a treasure of Korean culture.

There was no way the domestic media would spill the beans about Kang Woo-jin, who was selected for three of Hollywood’s ‘Big Five’ positions.

『Kang Woo-jin, who completed the script reading for ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain’, received rave reviews from foreign media: “Kang Woo-jin was a monster.” What did you think?』

It was already exploding. For the next few days, Kang Woo-jin simply completed his Hollywood schedule. First of all, Chris Hartnett appeared as a guest on the ‘Kang Woo-jin Alternate’ channel. Although the schedule was set a little hastily, filming was completed without difficulty, and Woojin toured ‘World Disney Pictures’ and ‘Universal Movies’.

A series of meetings and interviews with various media outlets and magazines.

Although it was a short period of time, I attended quite a few events and parties.

It was a week later that Kang Woo-jin, who had been extremely busy, returned to Korea again. Kang Woo-jin, who returned, immediately completed his schedule without any break this time. From the filming of Part 2 of ‘Beneficial Evil’, the schedule is too many to list.

『Kang Woo-jin, who has returned and started filming Part 2 of ‘Beneficial Evil’, is still receiving negative comments about ‘Beast and Beauty’ overseas… When will the script reading be held?』

『Kang Woo-jin, the ‘Emmy Award’ Best Actor nominee that attracts the world’s attention…Emmy Awards “We will soon announce a clear date for the awards ceremony”』

Once again, the few days passed in a flash.

May 27th dawned. May was already coming to an end. Half of the year has passed. At this time, Kang Woo-jin was in the midst of filming Part 2 of ‘Beneficial Evil’ in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi-do.

“Now, Woojin, hold on to your bust!! action!!”

For reference, the filming of Part 2 of ‘Beneficial Evil’ was in its final stages. Kang Woo-jin was famous as an actor with no NGs, and producer Song Man-woo, who gained momentum due to the ‘Emmy Award’ issue, was also at peak tension. The production crew did the same.

If we continue at our current crazy pace.

“You said it’s early next month after we crank up?”

“Wow – next month already? It seems like it was only yesterday that we started filming Part 2! “Time flies so fast.”

“Once filming is over around June, post-production and all, will it be released on Netflix around September?”

“I guess that’s the way it is. Part 1 was a huge hit both domestically and internationally, so we need to move on as quickly as possible.”

“Then it will be after the ‘Emmy Awards’ are over. Ha… It would be perfect if we win at least one award at the ‘Emmy Awards’ and launch Part 2.”

‘Beneficial Evil’ Part 2 was cranked up in June and officially launched in September. Then, on this night, producer Song Man-woo’s final autograph burst through the entire set where filming was continuing.

“Wow!! OOOOK!! Woojin, nice!!”

After finishing the conversation with producer Song Man-woo about tomorrow’s filming, Kang Woo-jin returned to his seat. As if to prove the intense filming, the suit he was wearing was torn here and there, and his face was covered in makeup other than the scars. But his deep poker face did not change.

-Sigh.

Pigtail-haired Choi Seong-geon was waiting for Kang Woo-jin, who returned to his chair.

“Woojin.”

“Yes, CEO.”

He showed a sly smile.

“I got a call an hour ago and it was confirmed for the first day of filming for ‘Cierrot: Birth of a Villain.’”

It was a smile of anticipation.

“It’s the second week of June.”
