“Self-study…? Now, are you kidding me?”
The women of the making team had hope. It must be a joke to lighten the heavy reading room. However, Kang Woo-jin’s answer is low and full of confidence.
“Self-study is correct.”
“Really? Sincerity?”
“Yes, seriously.”
At that moment, a woman from the making team covered her mouth with one hand. It was because of surprise. I didn’t know that the word self-study would come out. The same was true of dozens of people remaining in the hall.
Entertainers, production crew, and reporters started to whisper.
“What did he just say?”
“love of learning? You said you learned acting by yourself?”
“It makes sense, I guess I was just kidding. Did we see that friend’s acting? Wasn’t that a quality that could have come out by self-study?”
“Yeah, but his expression is too serious?”
Of course, the situation was similar for actors including Ryu Jung-min.
Among them.
‘love of learning? No, self-taught???’
Ryu Jung-min, the male lead of ‘Profiler Hanryang’, had a shocked face. After seeing Kang Woo-jin’s crazy acting, it was even more like that. The senior actors sitting around him also hardened their expressions. Naturally, all of the actors had a hard time believing it right away.
Except for one person.
-Sue.
It was Hong Hye-yeon who had just taken out her cell phone. Out of dozens of actors, she was the only one who had an unremarkable response. Because it’s a fact you already know.
‘Everybody’s going to lose their eyesight. well, i understand I already know, but it’s still hard for me to accept it.’
plus two more. Producer Song Man-woo and writer Park Eun-mi sit side by side at a square table. The two giants are watching the situation without intervening.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the large hall became a gist.
The only word Kang Woo-jin uttered was ‘self-study’, but at this moment, a tremendous amount of misunderstandings and misunderstandings overflowed and overflowed. It was impossible to make everyone understand.
Around this time, the main character Kang Woo-jin, who fired the first shot of everything.
‘Calm down, Kang Woo-jin.’
I was doing my best to keep my poker face. Because I have to create an atmosphere that fits the word ‘self-study’ for strong people.
‘Manage your expression, manage your expression.’
Although the beginning was a smoke screen or a cover to hide shame, self-study has become a trademark for Woojin, who is now imbued with a terrible concept. PD Song Man-woo and writer Park Eun-mi already knew about it.
‘I’m going to look a little arrogant, but there’s nothing special. It’s already been said.’
The concept needed consistency. At least Kang Woo-jin thought so. Doing this and that only makes it look like an idiot. Somehow I didn’t button it right from the start, but what if I’ve already come this far?
more than anything
‘It’s not even a lie, is it? Even though there are cheat keys, it’s true that I was self-taught. Yes, that’s why it’s safe.’
In a way, there was no lie in Kang Woo-jin’s words. The period is insanely short, but it’s true that I’ve done it alone. Kang Woo-jin comforted himself with self-consolation. Just in time, the hall was lined with top actors. It would be better to hit it quickly, in one shot.
but.
‘Oh, I’m scared. It would be right to run away soon.’
The eyes of veteran actors such as senior actors were so fierce. It is a big burden for Kang Woo-jin, who is a petit bourgeois. Tension is already spreading all over the body, but there is a problem with continuing the concept in front of them. I’ve already been doing it for more than half a day, so I lost my stamina. Therefore, Woojin chose to run. i.e. run away.
-Dreuk.
Woojin, who has a poker face, slowly got up from his seat and bowed slightly to the making team in front of him.
“Sorry, I’m not around to talk.”
Then, the making team answered awkwardly and gave way. At this point, Woojin’s head was full of only going straight. The rest of the people in the hall just followed him with their eyes as he exited the hall.
At this time.
“Hey, Hyeyeon Hong.”
Ryu Jung-min, whose face was buried in seriousness, got up from his seat and approached Hong Hye-yeon and started talking.
“You got it? Kang Woo-jin came with you.”
Hong Hye-yeon, who was preparing to go out, answered while sweeping her long straight hair.
“huh. sorry. Because the PD said nothing.”
“Where are you from, Mr. Kang Woo-jin? Is this your agency?”
“no.”
“Do you know what your friend was doing? Self-study makes no sense.”
“I don’t know, it feels like it came out of nowhere for me too. Ask the PD at dinner.”
After answering appropriately, Hong Hye-yeon joined Choi Seong-gun, who approached with the script. When Ryu Jung-min and Ryu Jung-min had a moderate distance, Choi Seong-gun, the head of the ponytail, whispered to Hong Hye-yeon. There was excitement in the tone of her voice.
“Mr. Hey Hyeyeon Hong. Is it true what that thing said earlier? Self-study.”
“that’s right. Even if I rob you of the theater through my brother’s connections, won’t it come out? Was acting a hobby? In fact, ‘Super Actor’ also came out to kill time.”
“No…does it make sense now? What kind of memorization subject is acting? Then what about overseas?”
“I told you, his past is unclear? What’s going on… Anyway, go to my room and talk.”
At this moment, everyone in the hall was busy talking like crazy about Kang Woo-jin.
Meanwhile.
Kang Woo-jin, who came out of the large hall a few minutes ago, was walking down the hallway with an expressionless expression. There are quite a few staff members passing by, and since this is a war zone, you can’t relax. However, because of the accumulated tension, each step is heavy.
‘Ha-you’re tired. I want to go to my room and lie down.’
Kang Woo-jin, who maintained the concept from morning until now, was very tired. My body is very strong. He wants to eat meat, but he wants to sleep in his room for an hour.
That was when he crossed the lobby on the first floor.
“Mr. Woojin.”
Someone called Kang Woo-jin from behind. It was a male voice. I turned around and saw a slightly chubby man approaching me with a sad smile.
“Hello, I was impressed by Park’s acting. No, I ate this script reading.”
“thank you.”
Who is it. Woojin Kang shook her head while pretending to be insignificant in replying. Because there were so many people, I couldn’t identify who this man was. did you learn Fortunately, at this point, a chubby man gave Woojin a business card.
“I am Kim Nam-goo, head of BHM Entertainment.”
Ah, you are the person on the enter side. More than twice as many entertainment officials as actors attended today’s script reading. Anyway, Director Kim Nam-gu smiled and continued.
“I am very interested in Woojin. Do you have an agency?”
“No, not yet.”
“Oh oh! Is that true?!”
Woojin nodded cynically, but was a little excited inside.
‘Wow- this is contact or scout that I’ve only heard about?! oh my god.’
Director Kim Nam-gu, who had no way of knowing this, clung to Kang Woo-jin.
“please! Fuck! Please contact. After this reading, I would like to have a long talk with our company. Mr. Woojin, I really like you very much. Like this strange atmosphere, as well as the crazy acting skills from earlier.”
“Ah, yes.”
“Haha, as you know our BHM Entertainment…”
The head of the chubby back boasted about his company. He seemed roughly to be a big enter. Of course, it was not fun for Woojin, who doesn’t know the market well, and fortunately, after reading Woojin’s expression, the manager hurriedly finished the explanation.
“A longer talk is at the company. Please contact us. With Woo-jin, unconventional conditions are possible.”
I don’t know what ‘unconventional’ is, but Kang Woo-jin put his business card in his pocket and nodded moderately.
“Yes, I will think about it.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Kang Woo-jin moved on. I wanted to get to my room quickly. But when Woo-jin arrives in front of the elevator.
“Kang Woo-jin!”
caught by someone again. This time it was a female voice.
“Do you have an agency?!”
after a few tens of minutes.
Normally, it would take 5 minutes to arrive, but it took 30 minutes for Kang Woo-jin to arrive at his room. Whatever it was, as soon as I closed the door to the room.
-It’s sweet.
Kang Woo-jin, leaning against the door, collapsed. His legs gave out and he sat down on the floor.
“Ha-I’ll follow you.”
Unfamiliar places, unfamiliar top actors, 100 people I haven’t seen before, etc. and even acting. The tension was at its peak for more than half a day from the morning, and it was difficult to maintain the concept quality for a similar amount of time.
Kang Woo-jin then banged his head against the door and stunned him.
“······What did I do today?”
I must have experienced the pain of war, but looking back, I couldn’t remember it well. Then, Woojin took something out of his jacket pocket.
-Sue.
There were several business cards stacked on top of each other. Kang Woo-jin put the business cards down in front of the river. There seemed to be about 8 chapters. I didn’t even look exactly. Everyone gave me business cards and explained something, but my memory was hazy.
“Were they all entertainers? Ah- I think there was a production site or something.”
I don’t know. Now Woo-jin just wanted to lie down on the bed. I had to wash, but my brain was furious and wanted a break. Therefore, Woojin.
-Fluff!
I threw myself on the bed. I fell asleep quickly. oh no no Woojin, who was about to close his eyes, set the alarm on his cell phone. 1 hour back.
soon.
“Uh-reorganization……”
Kang Woo-jin fell into a sound sleep.
About two hours later, around 7pm.
Behind the outdoor parking lot of Building 1 condo, in a fairly large vacant lot, a meat party was in full swing. Of course, it was the ‘Profiler Hanryang’ team. A simple desk, chairs, and meat grilling equipment were set up on the artificial turf. The menu is beef, pork belly, etc.
About 50% of the total number of attendees attended.
Almost all of the production crew, including PD Song Man-woo, joined. However, Park Eun-mi is not visible. Entertainers also gathered quite a bit. Some of the actors left the condo due to schedule reasons or chose to take a break. The elder actors only showed their faces at first and rarely left the room.
That’s about 50 people left.
The problem is that Kang Woo-jin, who was craving beef, is nowhere to be seen. The reason was simple.
Because now Kang Woo-jin has fallen asleep without the world knowing.
In the meantime, Ryu Jung-min at the table where the 8 actors were sitting looked like he was deep in thought. Because I was filled with Kang Woo-jin’s thoughts from earlier.
‘Kang Woo-jin, you were a first-time actor. Even if you saw it yourself, you can’t guess anything, right? Besides, what about self-study?’
It was Ryu Jung-min, a high tier among top actors. He has seen thousands of actors so far. However, it was difficult to identify the actor Kang Woo-jin. It was truly a different kind. Unknown expressions and actions, empty, solid eyes, aura of high self-esteem, crazy acting skills that are unknown where they originate and end.
Only one thing was certain here.
‘Yes, self-study is just a word. That Park Dae-ri quality can never be achieved by self-study.’
It is said that ‘Agent Park’ was one of the best performances in Ryu Jung-min’s acting life.
At this time.
“But it’s kind of like that.”
A female actress sitting at Ryu Jung-min’s table grumbled a little.
“I don’t know about anyone else, but shouldn’t Kang Woo-jin attend the dinner? The script reading was overturned earlier, and above all, you are a rookie, aren’t you?”
A disgruntled look.
“I don’t know if I’ve already become arrogant because of acting. I’m a bit uncomfortable with friends like that. It seems that his expression is almost indifferent, and his personality is a bit off.”
Soon, the actors sitting at the table seemed to sympathize a little. Surprisingly, it was Ryu Jung-min who rebelled against it.
“well. He was more like a monster than a little bit of acting, in my eyes. And in the first place, PD-nim said it was free to attend the dinner party. This isn’t even the 90’s. If it’s hard, you can fall out.”
“Yeah, but!”
“There.”
Ryu Jung-min, who swept his long hair, continued to speak calmly.
“Have you not seen Deputy Park before? Only after eliciting such deep emotions. It’s not an emotion that can be cleared by diluting it for a few hours. From Woo-jin’s point of view, didn’t you think coming out to dinner was a harm?”
“hmm······”
“Uri, it’s a role that builds up emotions as the story repeats itself, but the sociopath Assistant Manager Park is already complete. You have to show it right from the first part. The concentration itself is different.”
At this point, one or two actors started to understand.
“but. Didn’t Woo-jin draw out that kind of emotion in an instant?”
“That’s right, you probably did a lot of mind control a few hours before the reading started.”
“Even those of us watching had our mouths wide open, but I must have had a lot of emotional conflicts.”
Ryu Jung-min took over the baton again.
“It was ridiculously quick to retrieve emotions after the performance was over, but it was obvious that it would be messy on the inside, just like the look. Talking to others in that state is only going to make it difficult for each other.”
“I have experience too. When I get emotional, I get annoyed with the people around me for no reason.”
“Kang Woo-jin looks dangerous. Always expressionless crab. You should be good at controlling your emotions.”
“I looked a little dangerous. isn’t it? Woojin’s acting was really method. maybe more.”
“The role itself is sensitive. Sociopath. Even if you are good at distinguishing between reality and the extreme world, it must be difficult.”
As expected, they are acting experts, so opinions come out easily. Here, Ryu Jung-min delivered the decisive blow.
“You may not know it, but you are probably struggling a lot by yourself right now. It restores emotions.”
Wrong. The main character of this story.
“Everyone has experience, right? It is difficult to recover emotions.”
I was sleeping without thinking.
The next morning, Kang Woo-jin’s room.
I see Kang Woo-jin, who fell asleep in the same clothes as yesterday. It was at this time that the mobile phone near his bedside spit out a ringtone.
-♬♪
Kang Woo-jin suddenly opened his eyes at the loud ringing of the bell. Spit wiping is a bonus.
“Heh heh! did you fall asleep What time is it?”
He groaned and picked up his phone. A phone call had come. Her opponent is Hong Hye-yeon, a top actress. I also checked the time.
“7 o’clock?? Wow- did you sleep for 2 hours?”
Woojin, who was about to answer the phone in a bit of a hurry, hesitated. The voice was meant to be laid.
“Yes, hello.”
I heard Hong Hye-yeon’s laughing answer over the phone.
“Are you awake? Come on, let’s go.”
“All right.”
– Knock.
The moment he hung up the phone, Kang Woo-jin thought of beef. It was 7 o’clock, so it wasn’t too late yet. Hong Hye-yeon is leaving now, so it should be fine.
Then, Kang Woo-jin stopped moving.
“huh? Why are you bright?”
A bright light could be seen through the curtains. That wasn’t the afternoon light. Thanks to that, Woojin pulled the curtains coolly.
“town!”
The dazzling sunlight surrounds him. At this moment, Kang Woo-jin had a hunch.
“Hey, no way.”
Check your phone right away. Soon, Woojin lamented and covered her face.
“It’s 7 AM, not PM- Mr., it’s ruined.”
Because I recognized that I skipped beef in my sleep.
about an hour after that.
The outdoor parking lot in front of the condo was crowded. The staff packing their luggage, the actors riding in the van, and so on. In the meantime, I saw PD Song Man-woo, who had greeted Kang Woo-jin a few dozen minutes ago.
Of course, writer Park Eun-mi with a hair band was also with him.
The two of them are looking at the big white van in front of them. It was Hong Hye-yeon’s Ben. And now Kang Woo-jin and Hong Hye-yeon rode on Ben, and the next hitter was Choi Seong-gun, CEO of bw Enter.
Writer Park Eun-mi, who was watching it, crossed her arms and opened her mouth.
“When he comes, he goes separately, but after watching Woojin act, Choi Dae-pyo goes with him.”
PD Song Man-woo smiled.
“Hongstar is very interested in Woojin. Choi Dae-pyo and Hong Star are one body, so it’s obvious what to say. It seemed like that. Oh, come to think of it, was Hyeyeon the signboard and investor of bw Entertainment?”
“Listening to it, Mr. Woojin, it looks like he received a lot of business cards from entertainers yesterday. This is the first time I am a nameless person who collects business cards on Reading Day while living as a writer.”
“Because Woojin is not an ordinary unknown. Is the impact different? Anyway, Kang Woo-jin will be the first person in the industry to receive a down payment, no matter where he signs with.”
“A contract fee?”
When asked again, PD Song Man-woo smiled.
“This is a friend who negotiated with me to raise my appearance fee after giving me time to set my own value. It’s clever.”
Recalling the day of signing the contract with Kang Woo-jin, PD Song Man-woo recited as if to affirm.
“You have that much guts, but there’s no way you won’t get a down payment.”
