I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor - Chapter 198
Only Krnovel
Studio next to the waiting room.
After everything was ready, two men stood in the center of the studio where the screen test would soon take place. One is a Chinese actor who has just arrived. His name is Wang Bang and his outfit is a suit. He’s the same height as Kang Woo-jin, but his appearance is a bit pointy.
The only one left was a foreign man wearing gray short sleeves.
It was a physique that contrasted with the king standing next to him. They are almost the same height, but the forearms and chest muscles that show through the clothes are strong. Her hair is short and her face is square.
It was natural.
Because he was the leader of the stunt team that did the martial arts in ‘Lask Kill 3’. His name is Gary Peck.
He was also a well-known figure in the industry. Hollywood calls Gary a stunt coordinator. In Korea, it’s like a martial arts director. It does almost the same thing. That’s why all the action scenes in ‘Lask Kill 3’ went through Gary’s hands, and he was in charge of all the martial arts in the ‘Last Kill’ series.
Therefore, his role was the key to this screen test with martial arts added, and he was checking the partition to replace the mirror.
-Sue.
I set my eyes on Chinese actor Wang Bang.
“How familiar were you with the side script? It’s not that I’m overrated, so tell me honestly.”
The king nodded once at the thrown English.
“I can remember the entire route, but it can stutter if you go too fast.”
“all right. Then, move at the speed you want and stop moving immediately if you feel tired. Again, rather than martial arts, it’s a test to see how the mask will look on screen.”
“Yes, I understand.”
After hearing the answer, stunt coordinator Gary slowly scanned the king from head to toe. He was the one who created all the martial arts continuations for the ‘Last Kill’ series. Since he is such a veteran, even if he only glanced at the actor’s usual aura, he was judged to some extent.
‘······Looking is a bit lacking. But the physique is similar. The eyes are a little sad. the power you have is weak The movement of the unconscious is also a little mushy.’
Image result is unacceptable. However, the final decision is only made by manager George Mendes. Gary, who is in charge of action, was all about helping with troubles.
soon.
-Sue.
After checking the king’s condition, Gary raised his thumb toward the long desk in front of him. means you can start. Thanks to that, director George, who resembles Santa, focused his gaze on the front monitor. The front, side, and back of Wang Bang and Gary were already displayed on the monitor.
“Not bad.”
The men sitting on either side of him supported his self-talk. They were movie executives.
“But it’s not the picture I wanted. Didn’t you send the script to China a month ago?”
“It is said that there was not enough time to build a body, but I prepared for a month and had that level of tension-I did less preparation.”
“If that’s the case in a month… Hmm, Director George. He said that he gave a test to a Korean actor a few days ago. Is there any reason to waste time?”
“And if you’re thinking of making a change like wearing a Korean actor this time, I’d like you to tell me in advance.”
nagging. It was Director George who had heard similar words before coming here.
“That Korean actor is just on the sidelines. He came at the right timing, so he can’t call it a change.”
Therefore, he moderately ignored him and shouted in English while keeping his eyes on the monitor.
“Let’s go test!”
Then, one of the dozens of staff in the back ran to the center of the studio. As soon as she hits her slate, her royal face sees her front. To be precise, seeing Gary three steps ahead. Not just staring, the acting started. There should have been a clear life in his eyes.
Gary confirms it in real life, and director George confirms it on the monitor.
‘Well, the weight of the eyes is not enough. Not scary. The degree of hatred rather than living.’
At that moment, Wang Bang, a Chinese actor who was glaring at Gary, moves his feet. Originally, there are ambassadors. However, because Wang Bang was nervous, he seemed to have forgotten the ambassador, and he reached out his hand near Gary’s neck.
-Pak!
The speed is mediocre. neither fast nor slow The picture is more like a pre-rehearsal than an action. Still, Gary calmly accepts the king’s fist. I grabbed the fist that extended to his neck and snatched it. Breaks his wrist. He grabbed the back of the king’s neck with his free hand. Dispersion of gaze. Knees rising from below.
-puck!
A king room that allows the first room as it is. But the second one is hit with the same knee.
The speed of matching the sum gradually increases.
but.
“Cut, that’s it.”
In the middle of the test, coach George, who had a stomachache, stopped the two martial arts. Then, he asked the Wang Bang, who was slightly out of breath.
“Wang Bang, look at the front camera and think about what you want to remove.”
“All right.”
“I’m not asking you to just think about it, but to capture the emotions right before the attack in your eyes.”
“·······”
Back about 10 seconds.
“Okay, that’s it.”
Coach George, who announced the end of the test, murmured softly.
“That friend passes.”
after.
The next batter enters the studio. This time it was a Chinese actor. Originally, today’s test itself was intended only for Chinese actors, so it was natural. This actor also goes through the same process as Wang Bang. George’s signal after stunt coordinator Gary’s inspection.
“action.”
The noise of the slate resounding in the studio, the image of the actor being displayed on the monitor, the disciplined martial arts, and dozens of officials and staff, including the director, watching.
So the test gradually speeds up.
Contrary to Wang Bang, this Chinese actor received a very good evaluation.
“Good?”
“Hmm, as well as the clear route. You have been well prepared.”
“It goes well with both the mask and the monitor.”
They may be the same Chinese actors, but they were also competing among themselves. You probably don’t know, but thousands of candidates have been eliminated to take on this minor and minor role, and among them, three actors who are most suitable for the role must have been selected.
Even a third Chinese actor appeared behind them.
Again, the reviews were good. A level similar to or slightly better than the second actor. Thanks to this, director George’s expression brightens little by little as he watches the monitor. The same goes for the executives sitting around. Dozens of staff, including the caddy and producer team, applaud the actor’s passionate performance.
– Clap clap clap clap clap!
Gary, who looked slightly out of breath, gave the Chinese actor a thumbs up.
“You did well, breathing and eyes were good.”
“thank you.”
Soon, a third Chinese actor exits the studio. Before long, the staff teasing the next actor to come.
“Is it next?”
“Yeah, this is that Korean actor.”
“The second and third Chinese actors are so good that they might be compared.”
“But from a quick look earlier, I think you look the best.”
“Ah, that’s right.”
at that time.
-Sue.
A Korean actor enters the studio entrance. In other words, Kang Woo-jin in a suit. The entire staff glanced at Woojin like that. In particular, the eyes of the caddy team’s brown-haired Megan and the producer team’s black Joseph are stinging. Joseph, taller than 190 cm, waved a big hand at Woojin.
As a result, focus on attention.
The eyes of all the foreigners gathered in this studio follow Woojin Kang as he calmly enters.
On the other hand.
“·······”
Woojin, with a nonchalant face, stood in the center of the studio with an upright posture. No one noticed his kernel
‘Wow, dog burden. They are all foreigners! Isn’t it just the same as filming?!’
Soon, stunt coordinator Gary next to him scanned Kang Woo-jin. Just looking at her face, something was strange. And she’s cold
‘Mask, the atmosphere is good. Have you ever played a villain? It has a peculiar smell. It must have been a bit psycho mixed with the weight.’
Gary, who was reciting inwardly, greeted Woojin.
“nice to meet you.”
Woojin Kang replied in a low tone. Of course in English.
“Hello, this is Kang Woo-jin.”
“Have you experienced some action cuts in Korea?”
“It wasn’t the main thing, but you can see that I did it to some extent. She is also preparing.”
“······You speak English quite well.”
“thank you.”
Although it was an appropriate conversation, Woojin’s fluent English felt in it surprised not only director George Mendes but also everyone.
‘Oh- my English skills…and what’s more, I have a good voice.’
‘practice? No, judging from her pronunciation and leisure, she must have lived in America.’
‘There wasn’t a shortage of Chinese actors either… but this Korean actor can’t compare to them.’
It was an air with no expectations, so expectations rise at once. Meghan and Joseph, who had been bickering from the beginning, exchanged whispers of praise.
“What is it, Megan? That Korean actor······His name is Woojin Kang? You are handsome. And what’s that free time? It’s been a while since I debuted, so I thought you’d be trembling.”
“I didn’t say anything, but that actor personally subdued a gangster in Korea. But it seems to be calmer than I thought.”
“A monster? what is that again?”
Anyway, English is English and martial arts are martial arts. In the middle of the buzz, Director George, who had a stomachache, looked at Gary, who was standing next to Kang Woo-jin.
means to start.
Soon after, the well-muscled Gary asked Woojin.
“How familiar were you with the side script? Ah- yes. Did you say it was a few days ago that you were delivered this test? Then focus on camera movements rather than martial arts.”
“No, you can do it comfortably.”
“yes? No, that’s something to say on my side…”
“Is that so? It meant that I was familiar with all the side scripts and there was no problem digesting them.”
“Oh, okay. Then start with whatever you want. Never overdo it.”
“All right.”
When Kang Woo-jin answered calmly, Gary slightly narrowed his forehead.
‘What is this leisure? You know you’re lacking anyway, so did you bring your confidence? Anyway, he’s definitely a difficult actor to figure out.’
First, I gave my thumbs up to George at the front table. The following director’s signature.
“action.”
The slate hit by the female staff running up.
backwards.
-Sue.
In a short moment, Kang Woo-jin, who raised the role at a speed that no one would notice and spread the imprinted ‘Martial Arts’ all over his veins, suddenly closed his eyes. Then she took a deep breath.
“Sup- hoo.”
It was something none of the previous Chinese actors had done. However, Kang Woo-jin continues to act without hindrance. Suddenly, the air around him became calm.
Within.
“·······”
Kang Woo-jin, who has a cold yet calm face that gives goosebumps, slowly opens his eyes. A dog right in front of you. Woojin, who confirmed him, maintained a light breath for a while. Stare at Gary. Gradually, something dark is concentrated in Kang Woo-jin’s eyes.
purpose or intention to kill.
The finished thing rides on Woojin’s eyes and shoots into his gaze. Suddenly, the calm air surrounding Kang Woo-jin was filled with life. In an instant, Gary’s eyebrows twitch, and tension soars. First thing in testing today.
‘The surroundings have not changed. This is the air created by that Korean actor.’
performance. yes, smoke But for some reason, Gary gradually forgot about acting. However, it became clear that he was designated as the prey.
That moment.
– Suck.
Kang Woo-jin, who had stopped, steps forward. stride. No worries about walking. Its unstoppable energy merges with the life force it exudes.
I don’t even know about Gary.
– Seruk.
I took one foot backwards. was ready. Kang Woo-jin, who came close to that or not, stretched out her right arm without any preparation or glance.
The target is Gary’s neck.
but failed. However, Kang Woo-jin’s hand grabbed Gary’s collar instead of his neck. His expression was still stiff, and all his actions were cut off with a sense of theft. Gary, who grabbed the collar with his left hand, grabbed Woojin by the back of his neck.
pull down
-Pak!
Woojin hit the soaring knee with the same knee. Then, grab the hand holding the back of the neck and twist it. Gary’s small moan spread.
“Suck!”
Woojin quickly turned the hand he held in the opposite direction. Gary’s body turns naturally. The back is clear. Woojin’s knees rise quickly. Aim for the soft spot on his side.
-puck! puck!
He allowed two attempts, but Gary turned his broken arm in the opposite direction to release the restraints. He kicks Kang Woo-jin in the stomach. Woojin’s body is pushed back. Gary runs straight ahead. Kang Woo-jin uses that power to overthrow Gary.
-Papak!!
disadvantageous Block rather than extend your arm. Gary covers his face with both hands. A solid shield was formed, but Woojin didn’t care and stamped the side of his face covered by the shield with his elbow. once and again. Then there was a purgation sound. Because Gary raised both feet and wrapped Woojin’s face and threw him aside.
Kang Woo-jin flies away.
Gary quickly raises his body and takes up his posture.
“Huh!”
Woojin, who is about two steps away, gets up quickly and strides toward Gary again. It wasn’t that he didn’t have any worries, but from the start, he had an expression that only ‘murder’ existed in his brain. Remove, remove, remove. only remove
Kang Woo-jin and Gary face each other again.
However, this time neither of them jumped right away. Because we checked each other’s forms. Woojin and Gary stare into each other’s eyes and wave their arms in the air. I was thinking of grabbing whatever came my way.
It was Gary who moved first.
-hook!!
He kicks his foot between Woojin’s spread legs. Kang Woo-jin blocked it with his knee. Then, he immediately grabs Gary’s outstretched leg and pushes him to the floor. The two quickly get tangled up.
“Hup!”
“·······”
It was when Kang Woo-jin, breathing fast and expressionless, was about to move on.
“Big, cut!!!”
A familiar man’s cry is heard. It was directed by George Mendes. Bonnie’s eyes dilated and widened. It’s like a shocked Santa Claus. Director George sees Kang Woo-jin on the monitor and Kang Woo-jin in real life with such widened eyes.
‘······oh my god.’
Bewitched. It was just that expression. All the foreigners in this studio, including Megan of the caddy team and Joseph the producer, have the same face. There were many staff who didn’t even know they were opening their mouths.
I just wanted to see something with my own two eyes.
Director George, who was staring at the monitor at the same time, moved his widened eyes. Seeing Kang Woo-jin in the center of the studio. He was already getting up with Gary and robbing his suit.
“Go, shooting for Kang Woo-jin will start in June of next year.”
“yes.”
“The role shown now will join the team from around August. Before that, I will practice action sum with the actors.”
“·······”
“The part is yours. Perfect. The original meeting will be necessary, but I don’t think Woojin will need it. Personally, I want you to join us from April.”
In a word, you are number one and pass.
The staff buzzes. It was natural that this was the first time this had happened. It was impossible to get a role at once without falling in love with it. Because the screen test is not over. However, a Korean actor just landed the role in his first Hollywood attempt. He did minor and minor roles, but he did it.
Normally, you should open your arms and cheer.
but.
“hmm.”
Kang Woo-jin, who has an indifferent face, bends his face slightly. Then I started to calculate something in my mind. However, the time was not long.
just 5 seconds.
It was exactly 5 seconds later when Kang Woo-jin’s low voice was spat out.
“Ah- then I’ll have a hard time. It would be nice to see you next time if there is a chance.”
Director George, who had been bruised, blinked his eyes.
“What, what?”
At this time, among the staff in the back, Joseph, a tall black man who is in charge of the producer, laughed lightly.
“Kuh, oh my god. What are you talking about, that star?”
Because Kang Woo-jin got his first role in Hollywood.
End
