I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor - Chapter 200
Only Krnovel
Joseph Felton, a tall black producer who looks over 190 cm tall, stood in front of Kang Woo-jin. They even hand out business cards. I like Joseph’s size so much that Woojin and the foreign producer team behind Joseph feel small.
Soon, Kang Woo-jin flinched slightly inwardly.
‘Ah- Mr., surprise me. Seeing it right in front, it’s a real gag. Daeyoung Kim doesn’t seem to be able to straighten his shoulders.’
I had seen it before in the studio, but when I saw it right in front of me like this, Joseph’s size was so terrifying. Still, Woojin, who was already equipped with a deep concept quality, accepted Joseph’s business card as lightly as possible.
“Yes, this is Kang Woo-jin.”
Joseph suddenly shakes hands with Woojin.
“haha. The test above was great, I’ve had quite a bit of a career as a producer in my own right, but this is the first time I’ve seen such a fresh sight. I think it will remain in my memory for a long time.”
what. is it a compliment? First of all, Woojin received his greeting in moderation.
“thank you.”
At this time, Choi Seong-gun, who stood in the back, whispered to Woo-jin with a smile on his face.
“who is this? guard?”
“No, the producer who was also there during the screen test.”
“ah! producer?? Huh- this one?”
Seong-gun Choi’s movement, Joseph took out his business card again.
“My name is Joseph Felton, the producer. Are you Kang Woo-jin’s manager?”
Seong-gun Choi, who received the business card, takes out his own too. The English is a little awkward, but the voice is full of power.
“Yes, I am the manager and CEO of Woojin Kang’s agency.”
“oh! is that so? You are the representative of the agent! Nice to meet you, you are taking care of a fantastic actor.”
“Yes, I think so too.”
“Hahaha, the CEO should have seen the test process too. This actor turned the scene upside down!”
Whether it was playfulness or high tension, Joseph Felton carried on a cool conversation in India. Seeing him like that, Choi Seong-gun smiled, but was serious on the inside.
‘Is this really a Hollywood producer? He has no qualms and is hot-tempered. Well, it’s worth it if you’re a producer in this huge market.’
Seong-gun Choi vaguely noticed Joseph Felton’s power. In Hollywood, where all parts are made up of systems, producers were the real deal. Furthermore, producers in Hollywood do not manage one project at a time. The better the ability, the more involved in several large-scale works.
‘The producer of the ‘Last Kill’ series must be one of the well-known producers on the Hollywood floor.’
Seong-gun Choi’s quick guess was the correct answer. Currently, there are a total of three Hollywood works that Joseph Felton handles, and it is safe to say that there is no person in this Hollywood version who does not know the producer named Joseph.
Such a tall Joseph spoke to Kang Woo-jin again with a smile on his face.
“Um- I’m not a casting director. But I know how to see the tension and energy of an actor. The energy and steadfastness you show in the test is rare.”
Kang Woo-jin answered calmly.
“Is that so?”
Joseph Felton took a step closer to Ugin and hushed his voice.
“The Chinese actors I saw in that test were representatives who were chosen over a lot of time, and executives at film companies, including the director, had the same idea. It was almost confirmed that a Chinese actor would take on the role. You were an extra.”
“·······”
“It turned it upside down. Just once, in just one scene. Mr. Woo Jin not only ‘won’ the role to the Chinese actors, but also made a result of ‘conceding’ to them. It was acceptance, not victory. Woo Jin, not the director.”
Joseph, who had been whispering, raised his thumb.
“It was a scene that you don’t see often. Your martial arts, your energy.”
Then, as the members of the producer team in the back showed time and took action, Joseph’s face was filled with regret, perhaps because he was busy.
“If I’m in this mood, I should share a beer with you, but it’s a pity. Woojin Kang, please remember the business card I gave you when you come back to Hollywood someday.”
“All right.”
“Are you going back to Korea now?”
“Ah- I have some time left on the plane, so I’m going to look around for a while.”
Joseph, whose smile widened at once, pointed backwards with his thumb. There was a super-large movie theater decorated like an amusement park, one of Hollywood’s attractions.
“I will contact you so that you can take a closer look inside. If you tell me my name, a staff member will guide you at the entrance. Happy Hollywood.”
After shaking hands with Woojin again, Joseph Felton turns and walks toward the building elevator again. It seems that there are still things to do related to ‘Last Kill 3’. Meanwhile, among the group of people who came with him, some of the foreign staff whispered while watching Kang Woo-jin.
“Did that Korean actor just get Joseph’s business card?”
“Yeah, I was surprised. Even if they are top Hollywood actors.”
“Even to a Korean actor I saw for the first time today?”
On the other hand, Kang Woo-jin in a suit roughly stuffed the business card he received into his pocket. Then he set his eyes on Choi Seong-gun.
“Shall we go to the place he said?”
“Everything, of course, dude. After all, I have to take the kids to the dorm. It would be great if they were even filming.”
Around this time, the van that Kang Woo-jin and Choi Seong-gun were waiting for was parked on the side of the road.
Meanwhile.
-Suddenly.
Joseph Felton, who had just entered the elevator, ordered something from the bald-headed foreigner standing right next to him.
“Robert, that Kang Woo-jin is an actor. Do some research in detail. From the footsteps so far to fame in Korea, rumors, works, and people around you. Make sure you understand it so that a failure like today will not repeat itself.”
“All right. But why are you so interested? Of course, it was great during the test, but is it because of the Korean Wave? Or are you thinking of marketing?”
“Hallyu-yes, we can’t ignore that part either. But that’s not all. Right now, I can’t explain it other than intuition.”
“Intuition?”
“I think that actor will explode the scale of the Korean Wave many times in the near future.”
Joseph, a tall black man with a smile on his face, gave a small answer.
“The business card I gave you today is for that time.”
after.
Around noon on the 17th, the ‘Our Table’ team arrived in Korea after a long shoot. Hundreds of reporters and fans flocked to the airport. huge crowds. Even when the cast members of ‘Our Table’ were publicizing Korean food in LA, news of ‘Our Table’ spread one after another in Korea, so the reporters became even more overheated.
“PD Yoon!! I heard it was published in the local newspaper in LA!! Is there any other news?!”
“What was the reaction of the locals in LA??!!”
“this way!! this way!! Please look at this!!”
“Hwarin-san!! How was it in LA with Kang Woo-jin, who subdued the assailant!!”
“I read an article that an LA chef highly praised Woojin’s food!! Hyeyeon Hong!! Did you see that chef yourself?!”
Despite being blocked by guards, hundreds of reporters continued to ask questions, and crowds of fans also spat out gifts and welcomes. The arrivals hall at the airport instantly turned into an abyss. Thanks to that, the ‘Our Table’ team had to get out as quickly as possible.
At this time, some of the crowd gathered noticed something strange.
“uh??! Woojin’s brother! Woojin has no brother!”
“omg! Is it real??”
“Kang Woo-jin! Only Kang Woo-jin isn’t there??”
The atmosphere quickly spread to reporters as well.
“There is no Kang Woo-jin!”
“PD Yoon! Where is Kang Woo-jin?!”
“Are you staying in LA?!”
“Was there a problem with the immigration process?”
However, without any answer, the ‘Our Table’ team left the airport. It was for fear of an accident.
This part quickly went viral on the Internet as an article.

『The cast members of ‘Our Table’ waving at reporters, all with tired expressions』
Most of the photos were taken at the airport or that the cast of ‘Our Table’ had returned, but the fact that Kang Woo-jin was not among them was also discussed very loudly.
『The ‘Our Table’ team returned to Korea today… but there is no Kang Woo-jin?』
『[Star Photo] Is Kang Woo-jin the only one left in LA?』
Of course, rumors and chirashi are circulating in no time. Well, as a journalist, of course you could think it was strange. Because only Kang Woo-jin did not return.
『The whole ‘Our Table’ team is back, but the reason why only Kang Woo-jin isn’t there… Perhaps, there might be a schedule on the LA side』
Kang Woo-jin’s issues, which flared up when he was already in LA, are growing in size again.
『Where did the hero saved from the attack of the assailant go… Why did only Hwarin return to Korea?/Photo』
『Kang Woo-jin didn’t come to Korea, the possibility of shooting for the global superstar ‘Miley Kara’ and ‘Kang Woo-jin Bukkae’ channel ↑』
In the midst of Woojin’s talk, bw Enter made an official statement.
『[Official] bw Enter “Kang Woo-jin didn’t enter the country because he took a short break in LA”
Only the story about ‘Lask Kill 3’ was omitted from what actually happened.
At this time, people in a large van running on the highway in Seoul were also talking about Kang Woo-jin. It was Miley Kara and her teams who were to finish their Korean schedule tomorrow, the 18th in the late afternoon.
Blonde Kara was looking at her tablet with her legs crossed. Exactly the article that is printed.
“Kang Woo-jin, are you sure you are going to Korea before tomorrow?”
To her somewhat cold-hearted question, the short-haired manager sitting next to her answered in English.
“okay. I called his agent. We will be arriving in Korea tonight, and the shoot scheduled for tomorrow morning with us will be fine.”
She nodded slowly, and while sweeping her blonde hair, she remembered Kang Woo-jin. His outrageous filmography, various issues, and even his acting skills.
“Hmm- I wonder what it would look like in real life.”
“That goes for me too. Rather, did you check what the ‘Kang Woo-jin Bukae’ channel suggested?”
“You mean shooting content?”
Kara, who answered, changed the screen of the tablet she was looking at. It was an explanation of the shooting contents sent by ‘Kang Woo-jin Bukae’. Kara, who was looking down at that, changed the direction of her crossed legs.
“To sing my song as a duet. This is what I had originally expected. To cook after talking. You can do something like promote a movie here, right? I also like being able to cook for you, doesn’t that mean your skills are good enough to be featured in the local newspaper in LA?”
“If you look at the contents of the article, it is said that a Michelin 1-star chef gave it a high praise.”
“therefore. But you say you cook what I want, is it really okay if I tell you anything?”
“well. everything will be hard Because Kang Woo-jin’s main job is an actor, not a chef.”
“······By the way, what is this ‘avatar dish’? As for the explanation, I can’t imagine that I cook and Kang Woo-jin tells me.”
“It is literally. It seems like content for fun, but as Kang Woo-jin said, you move and cook. If it’s inconvenient, we can refuse.”
After hearing the explanation, Kara raised her blue eyes and fell into thought for a moment. She said it was roughly 5 seconds. Something in her twitched the corners of her mouth and she shook her head.
“no. Sounds like fun?”
“Kara, seriously think about it. You can’t cook.”
“Isn’t that what allows you to do that?”
“That Kang Woo-jin will do the hard work. Think carefully, a lot of fans and media in Korea are focusing on it.”
For reference, Miley Cara attended all kinds of events, luxury brand parties, interviews, etc. during her schedule in Korea, but did not appear on the You Tube channel. It is the first time to appear on the ‘Kang Woo-jin Bukae’ channel tomorrow.
“Yes, I know. Tell them you’ll do it anyway. I am looking forward to it.”
Bansak manager sighed.
“After- yes, okay. Think about the words and dishes to be used in the talk.”
“huh.”
It was at this time.
-♬♪
Her phone gave off a short beep. It was a message, and Kara, confirming her identity, widened her blue eyes slightly.
‘Joseph??’
The message was sent by famous Hollywood producer Joseph Felton. Kara, who immediately recalled the tall black Joseph’s face, confirmed the contents.
-Joseph Felton: Kara, how is your time in Korea? I contacted you because I was looking at your social media and wanted to know what it was like. I heard that you are appearing on a Youtube channel owned by a Korean actor? I’ve been interested in Korea lately, so I’ll look forward to it.
When Kara tilted her head and replied that she would know, Joseph’s message arrived again.
-Joseph Felton: Call me when you get back, let’s talk about how Korea was over a beer.
Kara, who saw the message, narrowed her brows. And then I asked the manager of Bansak next to me.
“I mean Joseph. Have you heard that he has recently become interested in Korea?”
The manager, who was looking at his phone, shrugged.
“at all. I heard that you were in charge of producing for ‘Last Kill 3’ additionally this time.
“yes?”
Kara scratched her blonde hair a little.
“What are you up to?”
same night.
The man who came out of the still crowded airport caught my eye. He pulled his hat down and covered his face with a mask. It was Kang Woo-jin, who entered Korea as a thief in preparation for reporters and fans.
‘Sup- Ha, yes, this air. Oh, really, the house is the best!’
Kang Woo-jin, who was clearly thrilled, climbed into the prepared van. I couldn’t see dozens of riotous reporters, but Woojin felt comfortable this way.
‘It was long, really.’
Right now, I just wanted to enjoy the feeling of being back in Korea. At this time, Choi Seong-gun, who was sitting in the passenger seat, with a tired face on his face, turned around and showed Kang Woo-jin his cell phone.
“Ah- Woo Jin-ah, Blue Dragon announced all candidates.”
On his cell phone screen, the Blue Dragon Film Festival officially launched, and the actors nominated for this year’s awards were printed as articles. Of course, the film industry quickly followed suit.
『[Film Festival] Blue Dragon Film Festival Secretariat reveals key candidates for this year’s film festival… the name of ‘Kang Woo-jin’ who stands out as a newcomer candidate”
『Kang Woo-jin, who was nominated for the Blue Dragon Rookie Award after 1 year of debut, but I can see him in other awards as well』
Not to be outdone, a few minutes later, the Grand Bell Awards also revealed their candidates. Both film festivals were about ten days away.
『[Movie Talk] From Blue Dragon to the Grand Bell…’Kang Woo-jin’ who appears in both newcomer nominations at the two major film festivals』
What is unusual is that Kang Woo-jin’s comments are very explosive.
It’s like Kang Woo-jin is decorating the end of the year in the entertainment industry this year.
『Blue Dragon and Daejongsang are already expected to win 2 crowns ↑, if you add up the broadcasting company’s acting awards… Do you have an accident in the first year of Kang Woo-jin’s debut?』
It almost looked like the main signboard.
