I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor - Chapter 209
Only Krnovel
The morning after the Grand Bell Awards, the 27th.
The current world was in the mood for the end of the year. In particular, various portal sites and numerous media outlets devoted their efforts to mass-producing news about the film festival.
And everywhere, the front page was Kang Woo-jin.
『[Daejongsang] ‘Declaration of War’ Kang Woo-jin didn’t panic at all, “The controversy will be settled next year” 』
I already roasted it at Cheongryong, but I added ingredients at Daejongsang yesterday.
However, from today, the media started to focus on other things rather than Kang Woo-jin’s good impression. It was a trophy that Woojin was collecting.
『[Star Photo] Kang Woo-jin going to receive the 4th prize in total/Photo』
『Already 4 gold medals······Monster rookie Kang Woo-jin, this time again, the impression is a powerful shot.』
It is rare to go to film festivals in the year of debut, but Kang Woo-jin even won a total of four awards, including the Rookie Award and the Popularity Award, along with Crazy Issue. All were first.
unprecedented record.
『Kang Woo-jin received only 4 trophies including sweeping rookie awards and popularity awards at the Blue Dragon and Grand Bell Awards』
Thanks to this, the tide of change swung even in public opinion, which had been full of cursing. Because Kang Woo-jin was clearly proving that he wasn’t just an actor. Woojin’s excessive image, which was overflowing with social media and communities, is overturned. up and down. The more so, the press continued to add firewood.

This tsunami spread beyond Korea to Japan.

Due to Kang Woo-jin’s loud ‘first’, his presence grows rapidly. It is already the size of a giant, but the realm of awareness knows no bounds. He can continue to grow.
The point to note here is that it is only about halfway through the end of the year.
『Already only 4 trophies, Kang Woo-jin, who is writing history, still has an ‘acting target’ left』
Kang Woo-jin was currently preparing for work. There’s no time to enjoy the riots of a landslide.
However, it was possible for a moment.
“Heh.”
Wearing a hat, Woojin smiled heartily as he saw the five trophies on the table in the living room.
“Five already? Life is at its peak right now.”
1 from Mise-en-scène, 2 from Cheongryong, and 2 from Daejongsang, for a total of 5. They all look different, but the meaning is the same. That the film festival that gave the trophy recognizes Kang Woo-jin. Therefore, Woojin smiled without any seriousness, just as he really was.
oh no, no
Woojin, who was very upset, slapped his mouth. She was to become serious again. If I went out like this, I felt like I would stumble without realizing it.
After Kang Woo-jin took a deep breath.
-Sue.
left the house Even so, he continued to use mind control. Be calm. Be cool.
at that time.
– Woo-woo.
In the long padding, Kang Woo-jin’s cell phone spat out a short vibration. Is this the representative waiting in the parking lot? I wanted to, but I didn’t. The opponent was the talk of the assistant director of ‘The Island of the Missing’, which is to be filmed today. The contents included the shooting schedule for the entire month of January, which is the new year a few days later.
“Ah- that’s right.”
Woojin, who climbed into the elevator, spat to himself.
“Is January over?”
Woojin’s filming of ‘The Island of Disappearance’ also showed the destination.
Around lunch the next day, Netflix Korea.
The weekend was over and the morning of Monday the 28th was bright. That’s why Netflix Korea was also crowded with employees who had just returned to work. It’s the end of the year, so I’m not crazy anymore. Two women are sitting facing each other on the sofa in the general director’s office inside such an office.
One side was Kim So-hyang’s general director’s office.
“First, listen to the car.”
The one answering from the other side was writer Nana Choi wearing round glasses.
“ah! Yep, thank you!”
The two sitting across from each other drink tea first. The two met after a while after ‘Boyfriend’, but there was no awkward atmosphere. At this time, chubby Kim So-hyang lowered the teacup and asked the artist Nana Choi.
“I heard a rumor that you started writing a work these days. that’s right?”
“yes? iced coffee! yes yes.”
Writer Nana Choi, a slender woman, timidly recited.
“I am working hard.”
“That’s great. ‘Boyfriend’ is still not cooling down in Korea and Japan, so are you going into the next project right away? Will it be a long one this time? Where did you do it?”
“······That’s yet to tell you.”
“Ah sorry. I’m curious, so I don’t know. I’m looking forward to it, what kind of work the author will write this time. Because of ‘Boyfriend’, the actors will stick together without any problems.”
Writer Choi Na-na smiled shyly, recalling Kang Woo-jin, who is famous for being crazy.
“yes. Fortunately.”
Kim So-hyang, who was also smiling, pushed the tablet on the table in front of Choi Na-na and said,
“Back to the point. Author, would you like to take a look?”
“yes? iced coffee! yes.”
Writer Nana Choi turned on the tablet and General Director Sohyang Kim asked a question.
“Writer, have you ever heard of Japan’s A10 studio?”
“yes. I know, I often watch Japanese anime too. It’s a very big place, and it’s one of the top 3 Japanese anime production companies.”
“that’s right. As you can see from the tablet, an offer came in from the A10 studio.”
“proposal?”
Pushing her body forward, Kim So-hyang took a picture of the tablet with her index finger.
“‘A10 Studio’ wants to remake ‘Boyfriend’ into an animation.”
Writer Nana Choi, whose eyes widen at once.
“Gee, really?? ‘Boyfriend’???”
“yes. Actually, it’s been a while since the first contact came. In the meantime, it went through verification or confirmation on our side. As a result, it seems that the ‘A10 Studio’ side is quite greedy, and they have already received the first draft and the expected story line for the adaptation. It’s there, so take a look. Of course, I’ll also send it to the writer’s e-mail.”
The explanation unfolded, but writer Nana Choi was embarrassed while maintaining wide eyes. Because it’s the first time I’ve experienced this.
“·······”
“Are you surprised? However, the quality of ‘Boyfriend’ was selected well, and it was a natural procedure because it did so well in Japan. You know how great animation power is in Japan, right?”
“Ah… yes, I know.”
“Hmm- it comes out when you look at the plan, but I think A10 Studios intends to keep the original smell of ‘Boyfriend’ as much as possible even if it is remade. I might increase the 4th episode of ‘Boyfriend’ to 12 episodes, but since the animation is around 20 minutes, it won’t be a big problem.”
“Well, then the character.”
“Of course, it will match the original as much as possible, right? First of all, the base will be Mr. Hwarin and Mr. Woojin. Along the way, A10 Studio will have the character sheet confirmed by the writer.”
Writer Nana Choi, who was watching Kim So-hyang, lowered her enlarged eyes. seeing the tablet. I wonder if it’s a dream or a birthday, but it’s a situation where I need to keep my mind straight. Soon, General Director Kim So-hyang’s words continued.
“’Boyfriend’ was a big hit in Japan. In other words, it means that ‘Boyfriend’ is highly recognized in the Japanese drama market. In addition, if the results of the ‘Boyfriend’ anime are good, the recognition will increase several times that of now. Because the size of the market itself is different.”
“·······”
“Of course, I am optimistic. Still, the writer’s decision comes first, and if the writer doesn’t want it, you can feel free to decline.”
“What if, when this animation is finished, will it be broadcasted in Japan?”
“Yes. It will receive regular programming, but it will be released on Netflix as well.”
As if understanding, Nana Choi focused on the tablet again. Then, as she turned the screen a few times, her hand stopped.
“uh? I use a Japanese voice actor, but why is there a picture of Woojin-nim?”
Kim So-hyang answered with a smile.
“It seems that ‘A10 Studio’ picked Woojin as the voice actor for the male lead in animation. The ransom is high, so I don’t know if you can afford it.”
“I-Really???!”
“yes. It’s a good choice. Woojin-san is popular in Japan, and the filming for ‘Familiar Gisaeng’ will probably begin soon. If the timing is right, it might happen at the same time as ‘Familiar Parasitic’?”
“Wow- Awesome.”
“If ‘Unfamiliar’ and the animation goes well, Woojin will have conquered all three major contents in Japan.”
“Drama, film, animation.”
“Well, of course it’s speculation, nothing has been confirmed yet.”
Out of nowhere, writer Nana Choi put down the tablet and spoke very strongly.
“Please make progress. I want to see the ‘Boyfriend’ animation.”
“okay. I’ll deliver it right away to the A10 studio. Other than the contractual part, I will contact you separately.”
“yes yes!”
At this time.
“Ah, it was requested by A10 Studios. This matter is confidential for now. Only the author knows.”
Director Kim So-hyang continued as if something came to mind.
“Even with Kang Woo-jin.”
A few days later, Wednesday the 30th.
The time was night. It was a little past 9 o’clock. The place is SBC Prism Tower in Sangam. It was an SBC office building with a total height of more than 15 stories. The party was in full swing in the extra-large studio of the Prism Tower.
A famous boy group is showing a performance on the sparkling stage.
-♬♪
Eye-popping choreography, powerful beat music, and colorful lights to cheer up. Familiar faces were also seen in the boy group team wearing stage costumes. It was light white.
A member who shoots ‘Our Table’ with Kang Woo-jin.
Of course, there were not only boy groups in this large studio. Numerous actors, PDs, and production staff gathered in the hall in front of the stage to watch them. About 200 people easily exceeded it.
Why are they gathered like this?
The reason could be seen everywhere in this studio.
-‘SBC Drama Awards’
The postponement of the awards ceremony of SBC, one of the public broadcasting stations, is in progress. Naturally, it was being broadcast live on the SBC channel.
What was unusual was the composition.
If Blue Dragon or Grand Bell had tight seats like a movie theater, the acting target was a little more casual. Round tables reminiscent of a banquet hall were placed throughout the hall, and beautifully decorated actors sat around each table.
On the round table, the titles of the works that made the year stand out.
At this time, after Yeon Baek-gwang on the stage finished the choreography, he waved his hand with his gaze somewhere in the hall. Above the round table that received the greeting, the title of the work that wrote this year’s legend was hung.
-‘Profiler limit’
The man who casually raised his hand and accepted Yeon Baek-gwang’s greeting caught my eye.
“·······”
It was Kang Woo-jin. In an instant, a large camera passes in front of Woo-jin, taking a picture. Aside from Kang Woo-jin, a mostly gray-toned tuxedo with her hair neatly swept back, there were many other recognizable figures at this table. Producer Song Man-woo with a beard, writer Park Eun-mi who gained some weight, top actors Ryu Jung-min and Hong Hye-yeon, etc.
The ‘Profiler Hanryang’ team wrote history with a 25% viewer rating.
Since it was a legendary work not only in SBC but in the entire drama version, a large camera often stops by the Hanryang team. Whatever it was, the celebration stage for Yeon Baek-gwang and his team was over.
Soon, emcees such as famous comedians and female broadcasters will engage in rakugo.
Occasionally, he would ask questions to the actors in the hall.
“A big profiler. It was a hit, I also watched the drama a lot when it aired.”
“that’s right. It’s very strange to see those actors sitting in front of you, shall we do an interview?”
“Ah… Mr. Ryu Jung-min. The baby perm really suited me, but where did the genius profiler Yoo Ji-hyung go?”
Ryu Jung-min answered with a smile.
“I’m off work, because I’m too lazy to work.”
The feel of the award ceremony and the feeling of entertainment are properly mixed. Of course, the question was thrown to Kang Woo-jin, who has a poker face.
“Kang Woo-jin, the main character of this year’s upheaval!”
“I want to do some comment dribbling with Park’s line, but it’s a bit difficult because it’s a bit slanderous.”
“Mr. Woojin, it’s been a while since you came back as Assistant Manager Park. How do you feel?”
Kang Woo-jin, who was handed the microphone, raised his voice. It was a mix of concept quality and a bit of playfulness.
“Shall I serve as an ambassador for Park?”
The moderators were perplexed and stopped.
“no! no no no! You know this is a live broadcast, right?”
“If you do that, you’ll buy it, buy it!”
Woojin nodded slowly and lowered the microphone. It seemed that he had some experience and was able to afford it. Not only the surface, but also the truth of the kernel.
After tens of minutes of calming down the atmosphere, the acting awards ceremony began in earnest.
Unlike film festivals, this started out differently.
“ruler! The first award category is the ‘Scene Stealer Award’! This award is given to the actor who played the most impressive character this year, and it will be given to two people in total.”
The announcement of the award was made by an executive from the SBC Drama Department.
The learner of the gunmun.
“SBC Drama Awards, Scene Stealer Award. Assistant Manager Park from ‘Profiler Hanryang’. Woojin Kang!”
tell me what to do It was Kang Woo-jin who even derived a buzzword. Among actors receiving so many awards and trophies, Kang Woo-jin eventually took first place.
It was neither the grand prize nor the top prize.
This year’s SBC Grand Prize went to Ryu Jung-min, and Hong Hye-yeon won the top prize in the female category. Of course, it was not a supporting actor award or an excellent award.
“The male part of the rookie award! Kang Woo-jin, a profiler! Congratulations!!”
Even so, Kang Woo-jin was in first place.
Kang Woo-jin is the only one at the SBC Drama Awards today.
“Special Acting Award! Wow – isn’t this really the first time?? congratulations!! Kang Woo-jin in the role of ‘Park Assistant’!!”
Because I won three awards.
The following night of the 31st.
Following SBC, KBC and MBS’ acting awards are all over. The time is 10:30 at night. About an hour and a half left until the end of the year.
Soon, January 1, 2021 begins.
At this point, Kang Woo-jin, in the van driving on the road, was looking out the window with a nonchalant face. Of course, he was doing a shoulder dance on the inside, but he forced himself into it. A new trophy is in his hand. The writing on the front of the trophy reads:
-‘KBC Drama Awards’
-‘Rookie of the Year’
-‘Kang Woo-jin’
As if burning up the last hour of the year, the media was excitedly grinding articles. In such articles, Kang Woo-jin’s great record could be confirmed.
『[Film Festival] Everything from the award speech to the number of trophies is a legend… ‘Monster Actor’ Kang Woo-jin finally achieved 8 crowns!”
『[Star Talk] ‘Kang Woo-jin’, a new record maker, made an untouchable mark in the history of the Korean entertainment industry』
『Only 8 trophies this year, Kang Woo-jin who created an epic of miracles…an actor who will never exist again in the past or future』
Meanwhile.
The veteran director who finished the year of 2020 with a dinner party. In other words, it was when director An Ga-bok swept his short white hair and had just arrived at the huge house.
-♬♪
His phone spits out a long vibration. It was a phone call. It was an unsaved number, but director An Ga-bok put his cell phone to his ear with a wrinkled smile. As if something had already been heard. Director An Ga-bok spoke into his cell phone.
Interestingly, the language he spoke was English.
“Yes, I was waiting for you.”
It’s quite fluent. Is it because of age? Anyway, the same English is heard over his cell phone.
“Hello, Director Ahn. Producer Joseph Felton. Will you remember?”
The opponent was Hollywood mogul producer Joseph Felton.
“Sure, I remember. We can’t forget famous producers like you. So, why did you contact me?”
“For now, please keep your conversation with me a secret.”
Soon after, Joseph over the cell phone asked director An Ga-bok.
“Director Ahn, could I possibly see the director’s shooting site?”
