Kang Woo-jin, who confirmed director Shin Dong-choon’s talk, was a bit surprised. Inside, of course.
‘Has it already been selected as a finalist? Is it fast?’
It’s a bonus that my heart beats a little.
‘Then am I really going to the film festival? Wow- I only saw that on TV at the end of the year. that I?’
Of course, there will be differences from large film festivals such as Blue Dragon or Drama Awards that Woojin saw, but to Kang Woo-jin, who is a petit bourgeois, it was just amazing regardless of the scale. I am desperately feeling that life is gradually changing fantastically.
At this time.
-♬♪
Choi Seong-gun, who was sitting in the passenger seat with a ponytail, rang, and while checking Kang Woo-jin’s schedule in the diary, he identified the caller.
“Are you Director Shin?”
Choi Seong-gun, who met Kang Woo-jin’s gaze through the room mirror, put his cell phone on his ear.
“Yes, sir.”
Director Shin Dong-chun’s reminded voice came right away.
“Choi Dae-pyo, you were selected as the finalist for ‘Heungsinso’! I was just contacted through the committee.”
“Oh, really? just now?”
“yes! Our case is confirmed, and we also sent a message to Woojin. I wonder if they are filming.”
“Ah- I’m on the move now.”
Choi Seong-geon, whose excitement was contagious, raised his voice slightly.
“Yeah, but isn’t it really fast? Honestly, I thought it would take a little longer to announce the finalists? Surprisingly, there weren’t many submissions?”
“I don’t think so. The committee didn’t say it exactly, but if you listen to the secret words, I would like to have increased by about 30% from last year. There must be at least 1,000 works.”
“But so quickly…”
Choi Seong-geon’s brain, which had been speechless, spun quickly. Thanks, the answer came quickly.
“Aside from the good work, it seems that Hyeyeon contacted me right away because she was in the middle of nowhere. The finalists are usually announced all in one day, right?”
“I want to be very likely. It seems that the works that will be issued have shown sincerity by contacting them separately as quickly as possible.”
Choi Seong-gun, who was on the phone with director Shin Dong-chun, ended it because he reached the B-team filming site.
“First of all, I understand, Director. We will prepare well according to the schedule, yes yes.”
As soon as the head of bw Entertainment hung up the phone, Han Ye-jeong, who was sitting next to Kang Woo-jin, snuggled into the passenger seat.
“Huh- Did you get accepted into the final round for ‘Heungshinso’?”
“Oh, it stuck!”
“wow.”
Han Ye-jeong, who is usually cold, admired the cynical Woo-jin as if he was very surprised.
“Oppa, are you going to the film festival two months after you started acting?”
For some reason, Choi Seong-gun answered instead.
“Domestic or two months. Woojin, haven’t you already experienced a film festival somewhere?”
It can’t be.
At this time, Han Jeong-jeong, who became serious, opened the coordinator book. She had a strong fighting spirit in her eyes.
“Hemeko, I’ll do it right. If it’s the ‘Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival’, there are many reporters, directors, and actors because they are major in short films. You should never kneel.”
Around this time, Woojin lowered his eyes to the scenario of ‘The Missing Island’ to calm his beating heart, and Choi Seong-gun, who was watching Kang Woo-jin in the room mirror, exclaimed inwardly.
‘A film festival debut two months after appearing? It’s an unusually crazy move. It’s the first time I’ve seen this kind of route. Even the best masters in Korea cling to it.’
No matter how amazing the acting was, it was another story for the master directors to cling to. Choi Seong-gun, who has been in the entertainment industry for decades, knew best.
‘On top of that, his English skills wouldn’t be strange even if he went to Hollywood right away. I don’t know much Japanese yet.’
It was Choi Seong-gun who was worthy of the unconventional contract conditions, and he turned around and asked Woo-jin’s explosive future.
“So, Woojin. ‘Island of the Missing’, how does it smell?”
“It is fun.”
“oh? fun?”
“Yes, why are you doing that?”
“no. Is it a bit awkward to say that you’re fun?”
until it gets awkward Woojin’s answer was not a concept. ‘The Island of the Missing’ was genuinely fun.
‘No, how can a man put up with a strange creature?’
That’s why Woojin is aloof, but once again spits out his sincerity.
“I haven’t finished reading it yet, but it is interesting.”
“Yes, yes. Please let me know after reading it all. To do it or not, and which characters were particularly good. Director Kwon Ki-taek said there is no need to rush, so watch slowly and think carefully.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Perhaps director Kwon Ki-taek also said that he has a schedule for the ‘Mise-en-scène Film Festival’, so we should set up a meeting near the end of the film festival.”
At this point, Kang Woo-jin suddenly changed the subject with a calming voice.
“And can you get more scripts or screenplays?”
“suddenly? last one? Or was it before it started?”
“It would be nice if it was planned.”
There wasn’t really any big reason. Rather than being greedy for the work, it was great to read several scripts and scenarios. Because you need to quickly acquire experience and knowledge.
‘Then it’s good if it comes out with a high grade.’
Seong-gun Choi, who was brushing his chin, asked back.
“Uhm- well, it’s not difficult to bring works that go around the market. But is there anything too urgent?”
“You can just watch it.”
“okay? So what genre do you prefer? Thrillers, action locos, etc.”
“I don’t think it really matters.”
“Hmm, since I had strong characters in the early days of my debut… It’s easy to get stuck in your image if you go that way, right? In fact, sweet things are the best when it comes to fandom hooks.”
Choi Seong-gun was explaining something.
“Woojin, you like masks that are versatile or have a spectrum.”
Suggested to the silent Kang Woo-jin.
“Would you like to watch a roco or a melodrama?”
around lunch the same day. Japan, Tokyo.
A high-end sushi restaurant near Tokyo Station. It was a shop that looked expensive even at a cursory glance. Two men are sitting facing each other in the VIP room of a sushi restaurant. One has short hair full of gray hair, a big nose, and looks to be in her 50s. The other side was a skinny man younger than his 50s.
The two were enjoying the colorful sushi placed in the center of the table.
Then, a skinny man started a conversation.
“あ, 監督. (Ah, Director.)”
A man full of gray hair with his eyes on the sushi answered quietly.
“Nande? (Why? Whoever eats quickly is the winner.)”
The skinny man laughed at the answer he heard.
“No, not sushi. Are you going to Korea this time? I heard you were invited to some film festival.”
“hmm? ah- yes I intend to go.”
“Is that true? You’ve been resting for a while, but you should start working soon.”
“Even if you do, you don’t do it.”
“It’s sad.”
In fact, the big-nosed man in his 50s who was called the director was one of the best directors in Japan. A person who is always mentioned as a master in Japan. The filmography is regardless of genre, such as documentary, action, live action, drama, thriller, etc., and in 2018, it proudly won an award at the Cannes Film Festival.
My name is Kyotaro Tanoguchi.
In addition, director Kyotaro had a deep connection with Korea.
『’Japanese Master’ director Kyotaro Tanokuchi, posted another photo of his trip to Korea on social media』
Because they were close friends who liked Korean content and culture. Photos of his trip to Korea are often uploaded on his SNS, and he has taken a joint work between Korea and Japan quite some time ago.
anyway.
“There is nothing to be sad about, I did a few works with you.”
As Director Kyotaro put down his chopsticks and muttered, the skinny man on the other side sighed and changed the subject.
“Yeah, but is there anything you enjoy going to that film festival in Korea?”
“It’s the ‘Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival’. I was invited last year too, but I couldn’t go. I should go this year It’s a major film festival in terms of shorts and art rather than enjoyment, so there’s a lot to see.”
“Still, if it’s a short film festival, all the actors will be unknown, and if it’s a major magazine in Korea or internationally, it will be boring, right? I think the works will also be small.”
Director Kyotaro, who was holding a glass of water, gave a slight glare at the skinny man across from him.
“That kind of spirit is making the Japanese movie version go backwards.”
“······yes?”
“It’s the same in Japan as going anonymous into short and art films. Rather, looking at the current situation, Japan should learn the Korean content market system.”
“Ah- yes, I agree with that.”
“Can’t you find the answer just by watching Netflix in Japan? More than half of Korean works ranked in the top 10 in the rankings. is it a crisis? But Japan is always the same because the domestic market is stable.”
“·······”
“Actors always say, ‘I’m acting now!’ They act in a tone, and the directors continue to borrow the same method and system.”
At this point, director Kyotaro let out a long sigh.
“But Japan is already being eaten up by the Korean wave. The number of people who love KPOP and K-contents continues to increase.”
He spat out his sincere heart.
“We need to pay more attention to Korea. That is why I am going to Korea.”
after.
Around the time Kang Woo-jin was immersed in filming ‘Profiler Hanryang’, new news was announced one after another in various areas of the Internet.
『[Movie Talk] ‘Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival’, whose sponsor changed this year, pay attention to the different steps from last year!』
It was related to the ‘Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival’. Of course, it wasn’t the main thing like ‘Profiler Hanryang’ or the drama war, but.
『’Mise-en-scène Film Festival’ Committee “Many famous foreign directors will attend this year”]
It was obviously more aggressive publicity than last year. ‘Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival’ was often seen on the entertainment side of various portal sites and in various communities.
-Recent status of major domestic mise-en-scène short film festivals.jpg
What a changed back. In other words, it was clear that the sponsor was well spent. It wasn’t just one day, the next day, the next day, the ‘Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival’-related publicity was growing in size.
There.
“You guys know it’s the ‘Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival’, right? It’s a film festival that opens on the 30th of this month, right? The advertisement came in from there!”
Several BJs and nutubers also advertised the ‘Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival’. Interest was not overwhelming, but it spread to an unspecified number of people. First of all, a publicity method that was not even tried last year was mobilized.
『[Issue IS] From famous nutubes to top actors, they are eager to promote the ‘Mise-en-scène Film Festival’』
It was natural to get some attention.
In other words, people who were originally interested in the ‘Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival’ and those who were not interested were mixed. Provocative words such as masters, top actors, or famous foreign actors also played a part.
The effect of this aggressive publicity appeared immediately.
The movie-related community was excited, and the ‘Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival’ was often shared on social media. Not only online, but also offline.
For example.
“oh-”
Kang Woo-jin’s friend, Kim Dae-young, who had just returned to his seat after lunch, said that. He was originally interested in acting because he was interested in acting.
“’Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival’, this year’s news is so terrifying, right?”
The desire to go was like a chimney. Looking at the schedule of the festival, except for the closing ceremony and awards ceremony, the screening period for short films was included in a week and also on weekends.
However, Kim Dae-young, who is tall, felt lonely going alone.
“Sueup- who should I flirt with?”
Daeyoung Kim sent a text message to one of the three members, including Woojin Kang.
-Hey Lee Kyung-seong.
The friend was also on a break, so the reply was quick.
– Fat: Say it.
-(Link) Are you going to see this next weekend? short film festival
-Fat: No
-Why, you idiot, you have nothing to do on the weekend anyway.
-Fat: Lol. And why do I feel that.
-Oh, I’ll have a drink after it’s over.
– Fat: Then call the other kids. Woojin Kang Why is this bastard diving?
-I don’t know, but he always says he’s busy anyways, so he calls Na Hyung-gu?
-Fat Gyeongseong: Oh, tell Hyunggu Na to come out too. And Kang Woo-jin has a white-haired woman
-If it’s a girl, it’s ㅇㅇ, Hyung-gu okay, hit me, you come out too
-Fat: ㅇㅇㅋ
Kim Dae-young, who recruited two of his friends, also sent a text message to Kang Woo-jin.
-Hey, are you dead? let me see your face
Surprisingly, the reply came quickly.
-Ujiral: Next time. really kinda busy
As soon as he saw the reply, Kim Dae-young snorted.
“It’s 100% good to have this little girl.”
Sunday, April 26th. late afternoon.
The location was the filming set of ‘Profiler Hanryang’. It was the main team, not the B team, and dozens of staff members, including PD Song Man-woo, held their breath and looked at the shooting zone.
“·······”
“·······”
Where they see is Kang Woo-jin in handcuffs. No, Deputy Park was standing there. Detectives on both sides caught him.
At this time, the front camera rode the rail and slowly attached to Park.
Therefore, Park’s face gradually closes up on the monitor that PD Song Man-woo, who has a beard, sees. Manager Park has nothing to say. He just stared at the oncoming camera. What’s interesting is that there is a little change in the manager Park in the monitor. As his face is enlarged, the corners of his mouth rise slightly.
It seems as if the process of a person laughing is expressed in slow motion.
Park’s smile is growing. No, it was accurate that a creepy smile fell on his face. The feeling of smearing ink. Eventually, when the camera stopped in front of Park’s two steps.
“·······”
A bright smile appeared on Park’s expressionless face. At first glance, she reminded me of a clown when her dark eyes full of madness combined with her grown smile.
The drawn smile, the truth hidden in it.
It had one face, but it was a combination of several masks. A scene that clearly expresses his character, whose authenticity is unknown.
this moment.
“······ Big, cut!! OK!!!”
PD Song Man-woo, who was absorbed in Kang Woo-jin’s acting, jumped up and shouted a sign, and at the same time dozens of staff around him clapped at Woo-jin.
– Clap clap clap clap clap!
“nice!! You killed me!!”
“Mr. Woojin! You worked hard!!”
“Sorry, sorry! Woojin, thank you for your hard work!”
Actors such as Ryu Jung-min, who were waiting, also joined in the applause. A sincere smile appeared on her face. Park Dae-ri, played by Kang Woo-jin, was really great. Although he is a junior, he has respect as an actor.
and.
-Sue.
PD Song Man-woo, who ran to Kang Woo-jin in the set at once, raised his thumbs up with both hands.
“Throughout my directing career, the Park Assistant Manager Woojin showed me was the best ever. really.”
Praise and congratulations pouring in. Kang Woo-jin, as expected, had an indifferent face, but inside he was a little embarrassed.
‘This- how should I finish it??’
In addition, a slight tingle and an overwhelming sense of accomplishment or exaltation surged through my mind. At this moment, there was no need to be conceptual and tough.
‘Uh…just beat the thanks.’
Kang Woo-jin solemnly bowed his head to the many senior actors and dozens of staff who went through hardships, including PD Song Man-woo.
“Thanks everyone, I learned a lot.”
It was the moment when Kang Woo-jin’s ‘Agent Park’ filming ended.
then an hour later.
Kang Woo-jin, who finished filming ‘Profiler Hanryang’ as Assistant Manager Park, came out to the parking lot of the set. Woojin was alone without a team. Seong-gun Choi was talking with the production team, Ye-jeong Han was tidying up the clothes, and Soo-hwan Jang, who was big, ran to the bathroom while coming with him.
Whatever it is.
-Sue.
An expressionless Kang Woo-jin raised his gaze to the sky in front of a black van. She was already dark. However, the moonlight is bright. The atmosphere wasn’t bad. A cool breeze also blew. It was as if nature was celebrating the last shot.
That’s why Woojin.
“·······”
The joy that I had suppressed until now was expressed without my knowledge. A deep smile escaped from his mouth. I put the concept down for a while. Because it made me feel free and overcome the hardships, it killed me.
I’ve had a hard time, but this arrangement is okay, right?
I get lost. Right now, Woojin was just spitting out a laugh like that. Kang Woo-jin’s true appearance. Because if there is popularity, you can turn it around again.
“Hehe, I shouldn’t be laughing. It keeps coming.”
And the foolish Kang Woo-jin.
“…?”
Inside the white van, someone is watching. She was Hong Hye-yeon, wearing an eyepatch on her forehead, as if she was waiting.
“He now… what?”
Her expression was serious.
