Kang Woo-jin’s February has come to an end.
If you think about it, it was February when amazing things happened to Woojin, an ordinary person. Anyway, March has started. It was March, and a lot was going to happen, and Saturday, March 7th, was approaching before anyone knew it.
Today was the day to leave the MT and script reading of ‘Profiler Hanryang’. The present time is dawn. The place is Woojin Kang’s studio. Of course, the studio was dark and Kang Woo-jin was in a sound sleep.
that woke him up.
-♬♪
It was the cell phone ringing that was louder because it was quiet. That’s tens of seconds. Woojin, who was half awake, struggled to pick up the cell phone that was lying on his bedside while talking in the booth.
Because he is hazy, he puts his cell phone up to his ear without checking the caller.
“···hello.”
A choking voice came out. On the other hand, a clear female voice could be heard over the phone.
“oh? I must have slept.”
“·······”
stop. As soon as he heard the woman’s voice, Kang Woo-jin flinched and checked his phone screen. frowning at the bright lights, blinding her.
-Hong Hye-yeon.
The opponent was Hong Hye-yeon, a top actress.
“!!!”
Kang Woo-jin, who jumped up immediately, checked the time. It was now a little past 4:00 in the morning. what? dream? No, why is Hong Hye-yeon calling this early in the morning?? Even though many thoughts crossed, Woojin took care of his mind.
‘Ah- first of all, concept concept.’
The dignity that was put down was barely raised again. It didn’t take long because I got used to the concept quality.
“Is there a problem?”
“Aren’t you ready?”
preparation? Are you ready to go to MT and script reading?
“I understand that it arrives by 9:00.”
“that’s right.”
“I decided to take the staff minibus.”
“Ah- then you won’t see it for a while. This is the first appearance of the popular star ‘Park Dae-ri’. I told you, the actors and staff are very curious about Woojin.”
“·······”
“Where do you live, Woojin?”
“Suzy’s side.”
“Ah, wait a minute.”
I heard something operating on my phone behind me, and Hong Hye-yeon spoke again.
“Then Suji-gu Office Station? Come here in two hours.”
what. What is the nuance of setting up this date appointment? Woojin asked back while his eyes widened.
“why?”
I heard Hong Hye-yeon’s laughing answer through her cell phone.
“Why? I mean go pick it up. I’ll take my car, not the minibus.”
Then about 2 hours later.
The time was heading towards 6:00 in the morning, and perhaps because it was early in the morning, there were not many people on the street. Among them, Kang Woo-jin, wearing an air jacket over the hood, is walking.
Then he saw himself reflected in the glass of a store and stopped.
“Ah- but it’s our first script reading, so shouldn’t we have been more formal?”
It was a script reading attended by many actors, including top actors. That’s why Woo-jin was worried, but Song Man-woo PD just said to come comfortably. Everyone is free to come.
So Woojin dressed as coolly as possible.
However, looking at the fact that he didn’t care too much, Kang Woo-jin’s current behavior is really freewheeling itself. But the water has already spilled. Going back was over the top in terms of time.
“Tsk, I don’t know.”
Thanks to that, Kang Woo-jin, who changed into a feeling of not knowing, hurriedly resumed his stopped steps. Around the station you can see before you know it. Two large cars immediately caught my eye. A black van and a luxurious white van are parked on the shoulder of the road close to the station.
That’s it. They were unusual looking cars.
Kang Woo-jin, who had an intuition, put on a solid poker face by the time he crossed the crosswalk. I had been memorizing Strong Chuck’s order as it came, so I wasn’t worried. However, more than usual mindset was needed.
Because you will be riding the car of the goddess Hong Hye-yeon.
Soon, Kang Woo-jin, who arrived in front of the two cars, rolled his eyes. The tint on the car is dark, so I’m not sure which one it is. It was then.
-Druck!
The back door of the classy white van opened sideways. At the same time, Kang Woo-jin smelled a good scent. She was followed by Hong Hye-yeon wearing a hat and waving her hand.
“came?”
She is smiling inside a white van. It’s morning, it’s Nabal, and that woman is still pretty. Woojin made a cold voice while admiring her inside.
“hello.”
“But… Mr. Woojin.”
Hong Hye-yeon, who was in the car, scanned Kang Woo-jin up and down, who was standing in a daze. He seems to be worried about his behavior.
“Wow- I guess you’re not really nervous at all?”
“All right, nervous.”
“You believe me? No, no matter how much it is a script reading, if you go, there will be actors, staff, and reporters. There will be at least 5 to 60 people, so the costumes are really comfortable?”
“I was dressed appropriately.”
“Is it too suitable?”
Oh dear. Did you dress too roughly? When Woo-jin was upset, Hong Hye-yeon shook her head as if she was tired of it.
“I knew it, but Woojin doesn’t seem to care too much about other people’s eyes. Are you learning now?”
“·······”
“For us, the field is a battlefield, decoration is armor, and smoke is a weapon. If you decide to come out of hiding, you have to manage your image.”
Hong Hye-yeon suddenly spit out nagging. If it was Mother’s Day nagging accompanied by back smashing, I would have run away.
‘It’s nagging. Why?’
Since the opponent was Hong Hye-yeon, even this was Woo-jin that sounded sweet. If you look closely, Hong Hye-yeon doesn’t look like she’s dressed up, but she definitely looks dressed up. Full makeup, overall fashion balance, etc. Is it the standard of Malone’s ‘Quankku’ these days?
Around this time, Hong Hye-yeon let out a small sigh.
“Once you get on. I will see people.”
He gestured to get into his van. As soon as Kang Woo-jin got into the van, the van and the van started immediately. In the meantime, Hong Hye-yeon crossed her arms as she saw Woo-jin sitting across from her.
“I have so much to tell you. Why do you use that good visual? There is nothing to lay on the acting side, but this side is a completely white drawing paper.”
It was nagging that started again, but everything leaked from Woojin’s left ear to his right ear. There was no jaw to focus on.
Because the current situation itself was too irritating to Kang Woo-jin.
This is the car of Hong Hye-yeon, a top actress, whom she could not even dream of a month ago. The distance between her and her was so close that she could hear her breathing. Hong Hye-yeon exudes her good scent and nags her Woo-jin. What about the atmosphere where people would misunderstand things like they were innocuous? It just felt out of touch with reality.
So, Woojin.
“·······”
I just chose silence. For now, let’s just keep the concept quality. just looking out the window
this moment.
-Sue.
Hong Hye-yeon reached out to Woo-jin’s face looking out the window. Stunned by it, Woojin moved instinctively without even knowing it.
– Took.
“ah.”
“uh?”
Kang Woo-jin lightly stroked Hong Hye-yeon’s hand. Bonnie had a cosmetic powder in her hand. Then a moment of silence. That lasted roughly 10 seconds.
Then.
“I heard you gave me basic makeup. didn’t you hear?”
Hong Hye-yeon murmured a little bit sharply, and Kang Woo-jin, who hid her embarrassment as much as possible, hurriedly covered it up.
“Sorry, I don’t like people touching my face.”
There was nothing like that. Thanks to that, Woojin spat out a lamentation inwardly.
‘Ah- fucked up. Damn, the image is messed up. I must hate dogs.’
On the other hand, Hong Hye-yeon, who was watching Woo-jin with a hard face, thought.
‘Do you hate having your face touched? What’s your story? It’s related to his past…but this is the first time he’s been rejected so openly.’
It was the first treatment I ever received.
‘Ha, Mr. This hurts my pride.’
Around 9:00 in the morning, Gapyeong, Gyeonggi-do.
The location was a condominium in Gapyeong. It was a large condominium with a total of five buildings, and numerous cars began to be parked in the outdoor parking lot in front of one of them. Vans, minibuses, large vans, etc. He appeared to be in his 30s.
The reason was simple.
Because this condo was the place for MT and script reading for ‘Profiler Hanryang’. The ‘Profiler Hallyang’ side rented a condo for 2 days and 1 night.
Thanks to that, the outdoor parking lot was crowded.
“no no!! it’s this way! Bring it this way!”
“hey! the youngest! Who told you to put your equipment down like that! Don’t you know that lighting equipment is expensive?!”
“now! First of all, I’ll move everyone quickly and set up the reading room!!”
“We’re running out of radios!”
Dozens of staff unloaded their luggage from the bus, and the actors arriving one after another were busy greeting each other.
“Hey, did your face get better? Are the cosmetics you advertise really worth using?”
“Then what? Are you writing your brother? By the way, oppa, he said he was doing variety shows?”
Many reporters and actors’ managers were also present. In terms of the number of people, wouldn’t it be about a hundred people?
The overall picture reminded me of college MT.
All of them first unpacked their luggage in a designated room, and the ‘Profiler Hanryang’ staff was busy with various settings. The place where everyone gradually gathered was a large hall on the first floor.
The script reading starts at 10:00 in the morning in this hall.
It used to be an empty space, but now it was different. The hall was as wide as the school auditorium, and in the middle was a ㅁ-shaped desk. Appropriate refreshments and drinks were placed on top of it, and more than 40 chairs were placed around the desk. Dozens of simple chairs were also visible at the entrance to the hall.
At a glance, it is a large-scale script reading room.
There are many small cameras placed here and there and large cameras placed all over the hall. There was even a filming team of five or six people filming all over this huge reading room. It was the making team of ‘Profiler Hanryang’.
The making team was busy picking up interviews whenever an actor appeared.
“What was the biggest reason you decided to do ‘a profiler’??”
“Ha ha ha, what is this? Are you really filming now?”
Once I take any picture, I can use it later as a making, notice, or teaser. Anyway, the actors slowly arrived in the huge hall. Leading role, main/supporting role, supporting role, etc. Their team of managers were seated in chairs surrounding a square desk.
after a few tens of minutes.
It was so full of people that it was hard to find an empty seat.
What’s funny here
“Did you find the actor who plays Assistant Park?”
“no? yet. Will you come to the reading today?”
“There was a voice saying ‘Overseas Blue,’ but aren’t there really foreigners coming out?”
Most of the actors gathered were talking about the role of ‘Park’.
“Oh, I can see you today. I thought I was dying of curiosity, really.”
“me too. It will be revealed how fresh he was as an actor and kept quiet until today.”
“The rumors must have been all nonsense, seeing as the actors mentioned don’t even peep.”
“Why aren’t you coming?”
The actors continued to hesitate, but glanced at the vacant Deputy Park seat.
It was at this time that Hong Hye-yeon appeared wearing a hat.
“Hello-”
As soon as she appeared with five or six staff members, greetings were thrown. In the meantime, a tall man joined behind Hong Hye-yeon, who was greeting the actors.
“Hong Hye-yeon, are you going to have a party after reading today?”
It was Ryu Jung-min, a top actor who played the male lead of ‘Profiler Hallyang’. He was the one who maintained long hair as if he hadn’t decided on his hairstyle yet, and Hong Hye-yeon shrugged and gave a rough answer.
“I don’t know, look at your condition? But since we’ve come this far, shouldn’t we be a little tight in the beginning?”
“Ah- that’s how it should be. Oh right, hey, have you seen the actor for the role of Park Dae-ri?”
Hong Hye-yeon smiled naturally at the question.
“well?”
“Oh, when are you coming? I’m going crazy wondering. Aren’t you coming today?”
Ryu Jung-min glanced around and met Hong Hye-yeon’s manager, a man wearing an air jacket.
“Oh- This man’s manager is a bit good at wearing a mask, right? You look good. The physical is fine too. Hey, Hong Hye-yeon is a manager, isn’t it?”
Hong Hye-yeon smiled at the air jumper manager.
“okay? I guess I’ll try to learn.”
“Hahaha, that’s good. If Hong Hye-yeon has a back stomach, it’s a highway when she’s a rookie.”
Ryu Jung-min, who was smiling coolly, spoke to the manager of the air jumper. It was something like killing time.
“Try to be a real actor. It’s because I hate her face.”
“·······”
But the manager has no answer. There’s an indifferent expression. Ryu Jung-min, who was scratching his long hair, turned his gaze back to Hong Hye-yeon.
“This guy is chic. There’s an atmosphere. No, are you nervous? Are you new?”
It was then.
-Sue.
PD Song Man-woo with a beard appeared at the entrance to the large hall. Of course, writer Park Eun-mi, who had long permed hair, was also there. Thanks to this, dozens of people who filled the hall moved to their seats.
Soon, PD Song Man-woo and writer Park Eun-mi are standing side by side at the top of the square desk.
At this time, all the actors were focused on PD Song Man-woo, and Ryu Jung-min, the male lead right next to him, opened his mouth.
“PD-nim, ah- what the hell is it? There is no actor Park Dae-ri. Are you sure you’re not coming?”
Dozens of actors nodded as if they agreed. Then PD Song Man-woo and writer Park Eun-mi laughed a little. It was Song Man-woo PD who opened his mouth.
“You came?”
“······yes?”
“???”
Soon, the actors tilted their heads and raised question marks in their eyes. Either that or not, PD Song Man-woo turned his head and looked at the middle of the desk.
What you see right away is the cast list on the desk.
-[Park Assistant Manager]
And for some reason, PD Song Man-woo nodded while looking in that direction. Who are you nodding to? In an instant, all eyes of the actors were focused on the seat of Assistant Manager Park. Not just the actors, but their managers, production crew, and so on. It was obviously an empty seat.
But when did he come, a man wearing an air jacket stood there.
It was the man whom Ryu Jung-min, the male lead, called Hong Hye-yeon’s manager. Thanks to that, the long-haired Ryu Jung-min blinked at the man. However, despite the terrifying gaze, the man in the air jumper was calm and had a cynical expressionless expression. Then he briefly glanced over all the actors gathered in the large hall.
Soon, the man who took out the chair at the station ‘Park Dae-ri’ recited to everyone. voice is cold
“Hello, I’m Kang Woo-jin, who plays the role of ‘Park’.”
Moment.
“·······”
“·······”
“·······”
The huge hall, which had been buzzing, fell silent for an instant.
