I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor - Chapter 243
Only Krnovel
Are you Song Man-woo PD? Kang Woo-jin, who was looking at Han Ye-jeong’s cell phone, raised his head. Choi Seong-gun with a ponytail stabs his cell phone.
“What, you haven’t been contacted separately?”
“Yes, no.”
“Hmm- I didn’t have a meeting with PD Song during this Korean schedule.”
Seong-Gun Choi puts his cell phone to his ear while chanting.
“Hello, PD. I was just about to call you.”
In response to Choi Seo-gun’s polite comment, PD Song Man-woo’s answer over the cell phone was a little serious.
“Hello, Choi Dae-pyo. He said he came to Korea today.”
“Yes, PD. This is Seoul now.”
“Is it possible to have a brief meeting with Woojin-ssi during this Korean schedule? I want to see it before I go to Japan again.”
Choi Seong-gun then turned around and met Kang Woo-jin’s eyes.
“Yes, of course it is possible. It looks like it will be difficult today… Wait a minute, PD. I’ll check the schedule right away.”
“Yes, sir.”
Choi Seong-gun, who lowered his cell phone to block outside noise, asked Woo-jin.
“PD Song seems to be in a bit of a hurry to see you? But these days, the schedule is a bit tight, right? You must be a bit tired from digesting ‘Leech’ today.”
Kang Woo-jin shook his head calmly.
“It doesn’t matter today.”
“Well- it doesn’t look too difficult, but there’s nothing to overdo.”
“no. it’s okay.”
In reality, Woo-jin was a little tired, but not to the point of being overworked. If you’re really tired, you can take a break in the sub-space. Anyway, Choi Seong-gun seemed to know.
“Okay, but today is a bit different. I’ll ask if you’re okay tomorrow morning.”
“yes.”
I put the phone back on my ear.
“PD-sama, are you okay tomorrow morning?”
PD Song Man-woo’s answer was quick.
“Of course it’s fine. If you tell me the time, I will go to bw enter.”
“Uh- would you? All right. We will get back to you.”
“Yes, sir.”
such a disconnected call.
Choi Seong-gun recited with a puzzled face.
“He comes directly. You can see it before tomorrow’s schedule starts.”
Kang Woo-jin nodded slowly. He then showed his cell phone and explained to Seong-gun Choi. Who is the famous Japanese voice actor who posted what this social media post was about, and so on. It was Choi Seong-gun who was with me at the time, so understanding was quick.
“ah! The one who said she was the mother??”
Soon, the brain in the head of the head, Seong-Geon Choi, began to spin quickly.
“Hey- is he a famous voice actor in Japan? I didn’t know that. Already in Japan right now, Woojin, your piano is always noisy, right? There was also a lot of noise. But is this person the right person to hit me?”
“Is that so?”
“Ugh. To be honest, there were a lot of customers at that restaurant, and I expected it to spread to some extent… but when this happens, the situation changes dramatically. It’s just because it’s attached to a story that touches the heartstrings from a noisy issue. In addition, the person involved is a famous voice actor. I like the story too. You must have done it sincerely, but this kind of thing works well in the stale entertainment industry.”
Well, even Kang Woo-jin knew about it. I have often seen famous celebrities become a hot topic with some kind of beautiful story. Of course, she was quicker with Choi Seong-gun than with Woo-jin.
“Something- not serious? If this is the content, it is almost at the level of a heroic story beyond a beautiful tale. Woojin, you learn from another country. There are many keywords that stimulated the emotions of the Japanese public. Korea is probably the same, but Japan in particular is crazy about stories like this.”
However, since Kang Woo-jin is currently in Korea, not Japan, the situation in Japan was uncertain. However, it was not Choi Seong-geon who would let go of both hands.
“First of all, I’ll have to look at the radar first. how much is it currently I’ll have our marketing team monitor it first.”
Choi Seong-gun called the company and gave Kang Woo-jin a thumbs up.
“If you do this well, you might turn into a real hero when you return to Japan.”
backwards.
After the audition for ‘Leech’, the first schedule of his return to Korea, Kang Woo-jin moved on to the second schedule, an interview with a major media company. Originally, Choi Seong-geon tends to avoid interviews with media outlets whenever possible, but if he hides too much, there are times when a backlash blows.
Especially like Kang Woo-jin, ‘Issu King’ was even more so.
It is not uncommon for groundless rumors and abusive articles to run the game, and chirashi is also overflowing. That’s why it was necessary to pierce the blood once in a while.
Above all, even now, Kang Woo-jin’s several issues are hot.
‘Our Table’, which recorded a viewership rating of close to 20%, ‘Beneficial Evil’, which spread the news of PD Song Man-woo and Kang Woo-jin’s crossover, ‘Disappearing Island’, which announced a crank-up, Japan’s ‘Unfamiliar’, and Kang Woo-jin’s piano that suddenly exploded. And the thief entered the country without even knowing the mouse.
There are dozens of rice cakes alone.
It was at this point that I needed a cleanup.
4 days went by like that. The following Friday the 5th.
Director Ahn Ga-bok and the ‘Leech’ team, who organized the audition early in the morning, gathered in the film company’s conference room. The number of people is about five or six people. Among them, director Ahn Ga-bok sat at the top of the square table.
The atmosphere was quite serious.
It was worth it. Because I saw something huge that I didn’t expect at the audition. However, the ‘Leech’ team was running out of time to think otherwise. In addition, judging by director Ahn Ga-bok’s firm expression, he was poised to make a decision today.
Soon after, the representative of the film company sitting next to director Ahn Ga-bok asked.
“Are you okay, Director? A little- The audition hurdles got higher unexpectedly, right?”
Director An Ga-bok with short white hair smiled.
“yes. I’m just sorry.”
“yes?”
“I made Woojin-gun take on that role. I, the director, should have done that. I couldn’t even think of it because I was in a hurry.”
“······ Even though Mr. Kang Woo-jin seems brusque on the outside, he seems to have been thinking deeply about ‘leeches’.”
Director Ahn Ga-bok, recalling Kang Woo-jin’s face, nodded slowly.
“It is wide. He doesn’t show off, but he has a lot of affection for his work. What have you been saying these days? Tsundere?”
“Ah- yes, it is.”
“That little fellow is acting so boldly, so we have to speed up too.”
The faces of the kiss staff of ‘Leech’, including the representative of the film company, were spirited. At the same time, the cinematographer with a bloated belly was caught.
“By the way, senior Shin Shim-ho… wouldn’t it matter if I didn’t contact you? You didn’t look so good when you left the small theater yesterday.”
“If you’re a friend who would collapse at that level, you couldn’t even carry the Korean actor’s board until now.”
Director Ahn Ga-bok gave a short answer and unfolded a bundle of papers in front of him. It was the profiles of the actors who participated in the audition yesterday, and the evaluation table that director Ahn Ga-bok wrote down during the audition.
It was a motion to make a decision now.
“First, from the role of ‘Yoon Ja-ho’.”
There is a deep conversation about the role of ‘Yoon Ja-ho’, which a few people other than Jin Jae-joon coveted.
“How do you guys see it?”
“Jaejun’s acting tension has increased a lot.”
“Compared to last year, it’s almost unrecognizable, it seems like I leveled up in ‘Drug Dealer’ It was a different work than before.”
Director Ahn Ga-bok laughed.
“‘Drug dealer’- isn’t Woojin-gun there too?”
“ah.”
“A first-year actor is influencing the tops here and there. Anyway, I felt a little sorry for Jin Jae-joon. that friend is better The audition felt a little light.”
“Maybe it was because Kang Woo-jin was in front of me?”
“Maybe. However, other actors did not do as well as Jin Jae-joon.”
“surely······”
Gradually, the meeting became dull.
“I worry the most about the role of ‘Jimin Yoon’.”
“hmm-”
“Hong Hye-yeon stood out the most.”
“It felt like a lot of my shortcomings were made up for.”
“Wasn’t Hwarin’s tension better than I thought? I was surprised by how well she did unexpectedly.”
“I am Han Sojin. Unlike a rookie, it was the most natural, and if you go that way, you will quickly stand out. I’m fine now, though.”
“Haha, talking like that makes Kang Woo-jin a ridiculous existence.”
“Mr. Woojin is out of the question. You can’t group them under the same name value.”
“Because he’s such an outrageous eccentric.”
Many words pour out. Surprisingly, opinions were divided. In response, Ga-Bok An, the director, spins his pen while looking down at the evaluation table he wrote.
so about an hour later.
-Sue.
Director Ahn Ga-bok pushed the evaluation sheet with the names of confirmed actors to the representative of the film company.
“Go like this. Inform the actors and announce it to the outside within today.”
Meanwhile.
around 9 in the morning. The place is Samseong-dong bw enter. It’s bw entertainment, which recently moved to a bigger place, but the inside has been tidied up a lot. When the employees were on their way to work, I could see people already seated in the widest meeting room. One of them was Woojin Kang.
Because she has to stop by the shop before her schedule, she is currently wearing a hat and wears her favorite navy long padded jacket.
The concept quality is thick from early morning.
Around Woojin, only Choi Seong-geon was seated, and beardless PD Song Man-woo was sitting alone by the window across from them. A pretty solid face. Judging from the atmosphere, it didn’t seem like a small thing.
Then, PD Song Man-woo, who had previously said something related to the current situation or had a brief greeting, continued to talk to the calm Woo-jin.
“Mr. Woojin, as you may have heard in the middle, I’m currently looking at ‘Beneficial Evil’ a little more carefully. We were also choosing our final destination.”
final destination? Ah- you mean something like a broadcasting station? Well, if you think about it, it was Woojin who hadn’t heard where ‘Beneficial Evil’ would air.
“Is that so?”
“Um, unlike before, I’m not an affiliated director, but an external PD. The destination map also became very important. So, while Woojin was out of Japan, he had meetings with many places recently. Over-the-air, comprehensive, cable, and various OTT platforms.”
“·······”
“Even before the news spread that Woojin-ssi joined, the conditions were quite good, but since Woojin-ssi was thrown in this time, everyone is frothing and attacking.”
Choe Seong-gun was involved.
“Isn’t that what you were aiming for?”
“that’s right. It was intentional.”
“Including Hanryang, producer Song Man-woo’s name is enough, but writer Choi Nana, who really hit ‘boyfriend’ this time. Up to our Woojin. Even if you can’t eat this, notice.”
PD Song Man-woo, who had a small smile, met Kang Woo-jin’s gaze again.
“So, the conditions attached have been upgraded. Still, it’s not unusually high somewhere. That’s why ‘beneficial evil’ was likely to go to SBC. I had a blast, and it’s probably my hometown.”
“I understand.”
“By the way, Netflix contacted me.”
After talking, PD Song Man-woo pushed the transparent file he had brought to Woo-jin.
“Your conditions are similar, but the only difference is that you brought out the ‘challenge’.”
“challenge.”
“I’m going to launch ‘Beneficial Evil’ worldwide as a Netflix original, how does it feel?”
omg. Worldwide? Suddenly, the size of the story changes globally. Woo-jin was a bit taken aback, but she pretended not to care.
“A global launch?”
“is it so. In other words, let’s challenge the global with ‘beneficial evil’. It may be open in Korea, but the truth is that it is worldwide.”
“·······”
“Honestly, I was tempted. I’ve been feeling a bit stagnant lately. In addition, it seems that ‘beneficial evil’ will work well abroad. There are many things to say, but first of all, the opinion of the main male lead, Woojin, is also important.”
Choi Seong-gun spoke first instead of Kang Woo-jin.
“Worldwide launch – sounds sweet, but isn’t there a risk as well?”
“that’s right. To put it bluntly, if you throw ‘good evil’ at domestic broadcasters, some degree of success is guaranteed. First of all, because Woojin’s ticket power is amazing. You’re going to eat half of it.”
“On the contrary, abroad will not have such advantages at all.”
“If it explodes, an absurd situation will unfold, but if it fails, the damage will more than double.”
The production cost of ‘Beneficial Evil’ was by no means small. It’s close to hundreds of billions, not billions. In a word, it is said that if you fail, many will be fucked. Of course, the stigma that Kang Woo-jin didn’t work overseas was a bonus.
“hmm-”
It was Seong-Geon Choi who was worried about it, and PD Man-Woo Song was not aware of it either.
“Since there is a risk, if Woo-jin has a different opinion, I have no intention of going ahead with it.”
Woojin asked with an indifferent face.
“Who is the writer Nana Choi?”
“The writer is of the opinion that anywhere is fine. In fact, right now it’s right to focus on writing rather than those things.”
“·······”
“I intend to follow Woo-jin’s thoughts. After all, Woojin is the one who will grab and lead the ‘good evil’. By the way, if you choose Netflix, it will also be converted to pre-production, and Netflix personnel will be put into production.”
Your shoulders are heavy. How are you? Shall we turn around and talk about it?
“I don’t know about the various interests. It would be better if it just means something.”
“…the one with better meaning. How is Woojin-ssi’s keen sense?”
“Nothing. I don’t think it’s bad.”
“hmm. Then, are you preparing for Woojin’s global trip?”
Kang Woo-jin answered simply.
“Don’t be late.”
“Haha, that’s right.”
Producer Song Man-woo with a beard stood up and held out his hand to Woo-jin.
“Let’s overturn the whole world with ‘beneficial evil’, let’s jump right into Woo-jin’s aspirations.”
Woojin calmly held his hand.
‘Also global. Somehow I’m still, but don’t the surroundings just get bigger??’
To be honest, I haven’t really realized it yet.
An hour later, Kang Woo-jin’s van.
After organizing the meeting, PD Song Man-woo left, saying he was going straight to Netflix Korea. As a result, the destination of ‘beneficial evil’ became clear. Soon, the title of ‘Beneficial Evil’ and the news that it is with Netflix will spread.
However, there is nothing for Woojin to take action right now.
‘I don’t know, if I leave it alone, it will roll on its own.’
Just thinking about it makes my head hurt. Acting, the conclusion that just acting in any situation is enough. Around this time, the van carrying Kang Woo-jin moved to the shop in Cheongdam-dong.
at the same time.
-Hook.
Kang Woo-jin suddenly entered the sub-space. I had a meeting from early in the morning on a tight schedule today, so it was to take a break. Perhaps he was tired, but Woojin yawned as soon as he entered the dark space.
I solved the concept at once.
“What was your schedule for today?”
Remembering Choi Seong-gun’s briefing, Woo-jin habitually moved in front of the white square. There was no big idea. I was just going to peek at the white squares and lie down right away.
however.
“Eh?”
Woojin’s body stopped. The reason was simple.
“Something- hasn’t changed much?”
Because there was a noticeable change in the white squares. The beginning was ‘Island of the Missing’ and ‘Familiar Parasitic’, which were S+ grade.
-[3/Scenario (Title: Missing Island), SS Class]
-[7/Scenario (Title: A Stranger’s Bizarre Sacrifice), SS Class]
Both works are rated SS. That is, one step at a time. Even this wasn’t the end.
“Why did this suddenly come up?”
The rating of the movie ‘Leech’, which was originally SS, has also changed.
-[8/Scenario (Title: Leech), SSS Class]
Upgraded to SSS class. It was the first grade. But why? Why did the rating of ‘Leech’ suddenly rise? He had to think about it, but Kang Woo-jin had no time to think about it.
The reason was simple.
-Sue.
Because his eyes have already reached the bottom piece of ‘Leech’. It was a ‘beneficial evil’ that was SS-level like ‘Leech’, whose destination was changed to Netflix just before. However, the grades were different.
-[9/Script (Title: Beneficial Evil), SSS+ Level]
‘Beneficial Evil’ was SSS+ grade.
End
