I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor - Chapter 134
Only Krnovel
The chief secretary’s eyes widened slightly in the passenger seat. It was out of curiosity rather than shock. Then, she carefully asked Chairman Hideki behind her in Japanese.
“I’m sorry, but I’ll check again. Is this a new Korean actor Kang Woo-jin?”
“okay.”
“·······”
When there was no answer, President Hideki’s gaze fell on the passenger seat as he lowered the newspaper he was reading.
“Is it too sudden to understand?”
“···no. It’s just a little unexpected.”
“It deserves it.”
The chairman, who had been laughing softly, uttered a short chant while lowering his gaze to the newspaper again. The voice is relaxed.
“But you can just do it. Sometimes curiosity becomes poison.”
The chief of staff, whose face was full of tension, turned around and bowed his head immediately.
“Yes, yes. All right. Could you please check in detail?”
President Hideki, who had been brushing his chin at her question, shook his head.
“no. Just in moderation, recent trends and his agency. The works will suffice.”
after.
Kang Woo-jin and Hwarin returned to Korea, but the aftermath of their schedule in Japan was huge. Especially on the Japanese side.
『「Kang Woo-jin, Hwarin」appearing at the arrivals hall」
『[Kang Woo-jin, Hwarin]’s entry brought about 500 people to the airport/Entertainment News]
The fact that the airport was turned upside down from entry into the country, as well as the terrifying crowds that gathered at the arrival hall, were enough to stimulate the Japanese media.
『”Kang Woo-jin” waving to the excited Japanese fans, he was calmer than I thought”
It was too busier than I thought for an actor from a foreign country, not one from my own country. Even if Hwarin was attached, it was true that it was noisy.
However, unlike the early days, the Japanese media often wrote articles from a negative perspective.
『“No fuss, can a new Korean actor do anything?” Kang Woo-jin’s opposing faction is getting louder and louder』
Negative rather than positive, of course, works better for late balta articles that follow after stimulation and shock. It was a natural sight. Is it the same in Korea?
Either that or not.
『Kang Woo-jin, directed by Kyotaro Tanoguchi, what will be the schedule for Japan this time?』
In Japan, I was filming as many of the best-selling news as possible. Similar topics or updated issues were the main ones.
『One million subscribers in a week? The soaring popularity of 「Kang Woo-jin」 in Korea and Japan
『Number of fans flocked to the event where ‘Netflix Japan’ and 「Kang Woo-jin, Hwarin」 were together.
So many pictures were spread through the article. Some were taken by reporters, but there were also a lot of photos that were sourced from cell phones of the Japanese public. Of course, this was spread not only in the Japanese media, but also in social media and communities.
-I saw Kang Woo-jin in person at the airport, and I felt that he was really, really, handsome more than I thought!!
In relation to ‘Netflix Japan’ or ‘Ametoke show!’ There was also a lot of strength from the other side. Of course, there were occasional articles in the form of jjirisi.
『Rumors that investors of the topical “parasitic” are withdrawing, the person in charge of the film company said, “There is no such thing” 』
However, because it was a minority, it was not concentrated. The attention was high on ‘Ametoke show!’, which recently finished recording with Kang Woo-jin.
『「Ametoke show!」 Woojin Kang, who became the first, the public’s curiosity exploded at the news that the recording was over”
In a way, it could be said that it was the biggest among Kang Woo-jin’s schedules in Japan. In addition, there were many items in the ‘Ametoke show!’ in which Woojin participated. The first Korean new actor, guest Hwarin and Woojin’s vocals, talk, and.
『Ametoke show! Producer “Kang Woo-jin has extraordinary abilities”
Even Kang Woo-jin’s hidden abilities. Because Woojin was so hot in Japan, the reaction quickly stuck.
-Ametoke is doing a good job! I need to see the original episode after a long time!
– Hwarin participated as a guest?!? Looking at the picture of the two of them entering the country, they look really good. Aren’t they dating?
– Comments like you are causing rumors.
-I don’t like that actor? I hope you fall out of Strangers!
-Looking at Hanryang, he’s good at acting…but there’s something unfamiliar about it
– Are there any strange noises? Aren’t Korean actors acting trash?
– Kang Woo-jin! cute! When will we see you at Ametoke!?
-I saw Kang Woo-jin in person at the airport, and I felt that Japan lacked a lot in Korea in terms of visuals…
-I’m really looking forward to being a stranger, but I’m??

Expectations are more than half, but on the contrary, there were a few comments that were bebeco or openly criticizing. Well, this was a natural procedure for the rising sun, so there was no big problem. Whatever it is, the point is.
– Subscribe to Woojin Kang’s social media and You Tube! Because you can see his real face!
Kang Woo-jin’s popularity in Japan is growing rapidly day by day. At this point, there was no way that the Korean media would sit idly by on the situation in Japan.
『Currently, Japan is obsessed with ‘monster rookie’ Kang Woo-jin, his popularity spreading like a trend/photo』
Did you say ‘Gukppong’ in the vulgar language? There were also articles analyzing Kang Woo-jin’s popularity in Japan.
『”Kang Woo-jin’s unbelievable popularity in Japan has been attributed to the stagnant Japanese entertainment industry”, a marketing expert.』
It was natural for public opinion in Korea to raise their shoulders.
Tuesday, September 1st. HTBS, a comprehensive broadcasting station in Seoul.
Even in the morning, the office of the entertainment department looked hectic at a cursory glance. The producers of each program were busy answering phone calls or meeting with writers, and various props filled the empty space on various desks and throughout the office.
There is no separate dottegi market.
The director’s office of such an entertainment department. Unlike the outside, the director’s office had a rather calm atmosphere, and on the five-person sofa in the center of the director’s office, a man with a belly and a familiar man wearing glasses could be seen. It was the director of entertainment and PD Yun Byung-seon, an entertainment mogul.
“Our PD-nim, isn’t it too hard to see your face?”
“Then shall we get some rest? Opening nogarina at the beer bar in front of you with the director?”
“What is the chief? Dude, since you’re the director of the bureau, it’s so itchy. Just do it normally.”
“No, if you hang around, I’ll look too old.”
“You are old.”
Recently, PD Yoon Byung-seon was almost absent in Korea. The reason was simple. It was because of ‘Our Table’, which was announced to the world from planning to performers, and will become a large-scale entertainment show as a whole.
Originally, the filming location was overseas, so I went back and forth between Japan and the United States.
Two days ago, PD Yoon Byung-seon returned from the US. Anyway, I handed the transparent file that PD Yoon Byung-seon had brought to the director.
“Okay, I’m busy today too. Sign this quickly.”
“Hey- Star PD-nim, what did you leave your autograph for? After all, the PD who only received a few hundred million units as a bonus, is it down force?”
“If you’re going to take it, tell me quickly. Drop everything and go on a trip.”
The entertainment director, who took the transparent file from PD Yoon Byung-seon, who was trying to retrieve it, quickly picked up the pen that was on the table in front of him.
“I’m kidding, dude. No, did I tell you? You said you don’t get autographs and just go ahead with it yourself? The boss told me to do that too.”
“I just like this. I feel like something is going on.”
“Anyway, he’s a strange guy. Hey, how much is this going on right now?”
“I have money for this business trip under the high school.”
“ruler! signed.”
The director of entertainment who handed over the transparent file suddenly laughed.
“By the way, other performers are like that. Did you choose Kang Woo-jin knowing it would turn out like this? No, wasn’t it when you first said it when there wasn’t anything about him except Hanyang? But now… he’s the first rookie to go all the way to Japan. Frankly speaking, do you have any skills?”
“Are you there?”
“There aren’t any, so why are all the unusual kids you caught popping up? Kang Woo-jin in particular is truly unconventional, unconventional.”
“Woo-jin is a bit of a special case.”
“a little? Is it a little bit? A character that even I, who have been eating variety shows for over 25 years, have never seen before. How can a rookie in less than a year make waves in the entertainment industry?”
Producer Yoon Byung-sun, who swept her short hair, stood up from the sofa.
“If you have the ability, it belongs to Woojin, not me. You will be more surprised when ‘Our Table’ is broadcast.”
“why? Kang Woo-jin, what else does he have?”
“going-”
The director of entertainment urgently shouted at the back of PD Yoon Byung-seon, who was moving away.
“Yaya! But did you decide where to go for Season 1 of ‘Our Table’?! Is it Japan??”
Soon after, PD Yoon Byung-seon opened the door and shook his head.
“No, we will start with America.”
After he answered, he left the director’s office, and the assistant director and writers who were waiting around joined him. Producer Yoon Byung-seon, who lifted up his glasses, ordered them to direct.
“Let’s have a meeting right away.”
“yep!”
“And contact the performers. I have to start filming an interview video for the first episode soon. In particular, Woojin-ssi, make sure to check your schedule? Probably the busiest.”
“I’ll start hiring restaurants to shoot.”
“Uh- And let the cast know that Season 1 is in America.”
“Yes, yes, have you decided on the type of Korean food?”
Producer Yoon Byung-seon pressed the elevator button and replied with a smile.
“How about K-bunsik, K-bunsik.”
Same time, Japan.
Near Yurakucho Station, close to Tokyo Station. The tall, mostly angular buildings that can be seen from afar stand out. It was the headquarters of Kashihi Group, a conglomerate known to those in the know.
The top floor of the Kashihi Group building.
From the hallway, there was a room of the owner of this company in a place full of luxurious feeling. Namely, the president’s office. The owner is, of course, Chairman Hideki Yoshimura. Chairman Hideki’s room, which recently learned about Kang Woo-jin’s existence thanks to his grandson, was spacious enough to remind one of a hotel.
However, what is unusual is that there are quite a lot of books.
Books were overflowing around the tables and large sofas, enough to fill one wall. If you look at these things, you can see how much President Hideki reads books.
“hmm-”
At the large desk by the window, President Hideki, who had taken off his suit jacket, was currently listening to a report from the chief of staff.
“The Kang Woo-jin you mentioned is currently returning to Korea after finishing his schedule in Japan.”
After checking the documents uploaded with her report, Chairman Hideki, wearing glasses on the tip of his nose, nodded slowly.
“Sorry. There was no talk of coming back to Japan.”
“Yes, for now.”
“okay. Go on.”
Then, the head of the secretary, who had a clean impression and had his hair tied in a single line, spat out a prepared comment.
“Currently, Kang Woo-jin is a great force in Korea. Starting with her short film taken on her debut, she then made her face as the drama took up to 25% viewer ratings. to the next······”
She recited Kang Woo-jin’s filmography from the beginning until now. It was easy to find because most of them had already been introduced in the media, and I added that big players are attached to Woojin.
“In Japan, Hanryang has been launched, and the drama ‘Boyfriend’ is scheduled. As you know, director Kyotaro Tanoguchi’s ‘Unfamiliar Parasite’ is currently in production. Kang Woo-jin’s popularity in Japan skyrocketed because of ‘Unfamiliar’.”
“Um, yes. I also enjoyed reading the book ‘The Stranger’s Sacrifice’.”
“Kang Woo-jin’s issues and topics in Korea and Japan are soaring. In particular, we confirmed that Korea is unique.”
Chairman Hideki’s expression, as he continued to listen to the report behind him, was slightly puzzled. Soon after, he tapped the report with his index finger and calmly asked the chief of staff.
“Is this all happening in less than a year?”
“That’s right.”
“Is there such a case? I’m kind of surprised If you look at the advertising models contracted with our head office or affiliates, they have at least 3 to 5 years of unknowns.”
“It is an unusual case. I’m not sure about Korea, but it’s safe to see it for the first time in Japan.”
“Then he must be the only one in Korea.”
To be honest, Chairman Hideki was quite shocked. Because the filmography of a Korean actor named Kang Woo-jin was unusual. This was the speed and results enough to be interested in just looking at it from the eyes of a businessman, regardless of homogeneity.
‘Even though you must have had the same hard time as me – did you accomplish this much? Even though I am so young… Acting, Japanese, even Japanese sign language. Even the You Tube channel is about songs. It’s versatile. More than anything.’
Chairman Hideki, who turned over one report, focused on the people around him related to Kang Woo-jin.
‘There are a lot of outstanding people around. Are they giants? Including director Kyotaro Tanoguchi.’
I was sure of one thing.
“I can’t even imagine how much effort you put in.”
“yes?”
“no. Wasn’t there any sign language information?”
“Yes, Chairman. There was no sign language at all.”
Chairman Hideki nodded and changed the subject.
“This friend’s agency isn’t that big. bw enter?”
“yes. It hasn’t been long since opened. Compared to Korean entertainment companies, it is very narrow.”
“You’re talking about a newbie.”
“There are only two actors under the agency: Kang Woo-jin and top actress Hong Hye-yeon.”
“Ah- that actress.”
“yes. However, it seems that they are aiming for expansion of the company, perhaps because the performance of Kang Woo-jin and Hong Hye-yeon has risen rapidly recently.”
“Oh yeah? Scale up-”
Chairman Hideki’s eyes changed after he was speechless. A bit of interest mixed in.
“Once the bowl is large, there are many things to put in it. Let’s check this part more clearly.”
“···All right.”
“What’s special about it?”
Upon questioning, the chief of staff brought up the story of the ‘bizarre sacrifice of a stranger’.
“It seems like he’s keeping quiet, but from what I’ve checked, there seems to be a problem with ‘Unfamiliar Parasitic’.”
Chairman Hideki’s eyes went up at this point. He seemed quite surprised.
“problem? What’s the problem?”
In an instant, he recalls the face of his grandson, Shingo. To be precise, President Hideki’s eyebrows crinkled when he recalled the promise to see ‘Familiars’ together.
“Is it money, by any chance?”
“Exactly. It is an investment issue.”
President Hideki nodded slowly, and his face softened slightly.
“As long as it’s money, it’s like there’s no problem.”
Meanwhile, Korea.
The venue was a sound studio in Seoul. But it’s not small. Maybe that’s why the size of the main recording studio was quite large. Several monitors and screens in the front, various props for sound, audio equipment lined with buttons, and dozens of chairs behind the equipment.
Wouldn’t 50 people be generous?
Actually it was. There are over 30 people in this studio right now. The lighting was dim. Among them, Kang Woo-jin was seen sitting in the center chair. Today, too, was the height of cynicalness.
However.
‘I’m coming!’
Excitement was rising inside. The reason was printed out through the front screen.
-♬♪
BGM resonating in the studio. grand and heavy After that, white letters are embedded in the center of the black screen. Numerous names related to investment, and suddenly the volume of the sound rises. At the same time, large letters appeared on the screen.
