I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor - Chapter 54
Only Krnovel
Kang Woo-jin’s holiday on the 9th passed at the speed of light. Originally, on days off, it melts so quickly that you don’t even know what you’ve been doing, but there was a reason why the internet Woojin was looking at was so muddy.
“Whoa- what’s so many?”
Recently, Woojin Kang has been spending more time holding his phone in his hand. It’s not like your name comes out directly.
“oh! Is this when the closing ceremony was held? What is my face, what is my portrait like?”
Most of the news that is currently boiling on the Internet has a deep connection to Kang Woo-jin. The film industry was still in a situation where latecomers of the ‘Mise-en-scène Film Festival’, which had been quite noisy a few days ago, were still popping up.
『Finally, the ‘Grand Prize’ came out, this year’s Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival, successfully concluded [general]』
It has a deep tradition, and this year’s film festival was successful in terms of issues and interest, so the reason the festival committee continued to promote it was a big reason.
『Heungshinso』 won the grand prize at this year’s Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival! I got the grand prize after 4 years』

You have to inject a good impression into the public mind now so that you can see it next year. In addition, the grand prize for a work came out in a few years, and the target, ‘Heungsinso’, swept the newly established actor award.
『Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival, this year, especially in the film industry, there are a lot of stars, the 3-winner ‘Heungsin Station’ attention』
『[Photo] Director Shin Dong-chun of ‘Heungshinso’, “It was a great honor, I will continue to contribute to the film industry.”』
The committee and the media in the film industry continued to express ‘investigation agencies’. Every industry needs superstars. Especially for non-mainstream short stories. A simple example can be seen by looking at sports. Even in unpopular events, when a star player comes out, people watch it.
In other words, ‘Heungsinso’ was a superstar with many issues.
In the meantime, Park Jeong-hyeok, who tried to use the ‘Mise-en-scène Film Festival’ for laundry, was buried without a rumor. It was all briefly mentioned at the beginning of the awards ceremony.
『Where is Park Jeong-hyeok, who declared ‘from the bottom’? Park Jeong-hyeok, who did not attend the awards ceremony, remained silent.”
funny thing.

Little by little, the arrow of interest is also focused on Kang Woo-jin, who was unknown and was suppressed by Hong Hye-yeon, and even after receiving the grand prize, his recognition was weak.
why? Why is this actor quiet after beating Hong Hye-yeon and receiving the grand prize? Although not all of the film industry press spotlighted, a few reporters started covering Kang Woo-jin.

Of course, the entertainment side was hot because of the drama war.
[@__19yy__]
[(Article link) Oh… what should I watch ㅜㅜㅜ I want to see all three! But it doesn’t seem like all three are aired on Netflix at the same time…]
SBC, MBS, and TVM, which put forward a ‘profiler’, were ready to risk their lives for publicity, probably because the first broadcast was right in front of their noses. The media also responded.
『[Drama IS] In front of the first broadcast, SBC, MBS, TVM crazy PR war!』
Public opinion was also excitedly attached. Ads are published not only on portal sites, but also wherever the public can hear and see them.
『Public opinion has already moved, netizens advertising dramas they want in various communities/photos』
Among them, the news of the press conference for ‘Profiler Hanryang’ yesterday, the 8th, was the most stimulating. Of course, in addition to SBC, MBS and TVM also held production presentations, but the winner was ‘Profiler Hanryang’.
『[Star Talk] Ryu Jung-min attending the production presentation “Drama war? I worked hard and I am confident.”
『Leaded by writer Park Eun-mi, all the corps and the ‘Profiler Hanryang’ team are ‘exuding confidence’』
There was a lot of the most delicious sauce, and the mouth-watering smell made the reporters increase the number of articles about ‘Profiler Hanryang’ as if possessed. The day ended in a muddy state like that.
However, the next day was not quiet either. Rather, it became louder than yesterday.
『★Writer Park Eun-mi “The scene-stealer actor I picked will crush everyone”]
Especially today, there was a lot of talk about the scene-stealer actor who came out at the end of the press conference for ‘Profiler Hanryang’ and Hong Hye-yeon who had a fight with the reporter.
『Who is the scene-stealer actor praised by PD Song Man-woo and Park Eun-mi, who will show extraordinary acting skills?』
『[Photo] Hong Hye-yeon, a top actress who reacted sharply to the reporter’s question, “Please come and see ‘The Secret Service’” / Photo]
Indeed, looking at the overall picture, more misinformation was added than the truth in the articles spread. So what? If it’s sweet and salty, it’s good. The form of pouring articles with just this mindset. Well, of course, it was a struggle for the clicks of the reporters themselves, but it wasn’t bad for the ‘Profiler Hanryang’ team.
No, that’s exactly what I intended.
In this way, the media ignited the fire for about two days until the 10th, and on the return Monday, the 11th, public opinion began to put firewood here and there.

Dozens of edited videos of the production presentation were uploaded to You Tube, and SNS and various communities were excited and chattered. In the beginning, the concentration seemed to be dominated by ‘Profiler Hanryang’, and of course, SBC and TVM’s drama team were not aware of this.
“PD! Maybe it’s because Hanryang sprinkled rice cakes at the press conference, so only Hanryang gets a reaction from the public!”
“I know, dude! I am still monitoring!”
“The jalbang where Hong Hye-yeon fought with the reporter is also a jjall-bang, but this scene-stealer actor’s rice cake that PD Song or writer Park talked about. Is this real??”
“Guraji Goura! I haven’t seen Park writer like that, so you’re pulling aggro like this?”
“Yeah, but isn’t it really about being at the top level?”
“Hey, don’t you know that their production costs are terribly heavy? Go for it unconditionally! hey! We spray anything! You can curse at me later!”
Therefore, other drama teams quickly joined the aggro war.
12 days later.
Exactly 4 days left until the first broadcast on the 15th. Starting from ‘Profiler Hanryang’, other drama teams wondered if this was the time.
『’Drama War’, official trailers released for each drama! What is the quality?』
The main trailer was released at about the same time. Several teasers have already surfaced, but the trailer uploaded this time was more than 1 minute long, which was enough to raise the public’s expectations.
In a way, it was like a big fight.
Meanwhile, inside Kang Woo-jin’s van.
At the time when the main trailer for ‘Profiler Hallyang’ was released, Kang Woo-jin was heading to a studio. It was for the interview shooting for the trailer for the second half related to ‘Profiler Hanryang’.
“·······”
Today, as expected, he has a cynical expression. However, the manager team, including Choi Seong-gun with a ponytail, was not calm.
“Hey, did you choose the right quality for the main trailer? PD Song risked his life?”
“So. Although it’s a bit unfortunate that Woojin oppa doesn’t exist.”
“haha! Originally, I didn’t expect it at all, but wouldn’t it hurt more if the head was just right?!”
Everyone was busy praising the main trailer. Thanks to the concept quality I was equipped with, I couldn’t do the shoulder dance like the teams, but Kang Woo-jin was also watching the trailer.
‘Wow- this scene looks like this in the video. It’s innovative.’
Comparing the cuts I shot myself with the edited video, I couldn’t help but be amazed. Well, it was Woojin who worked for a design company and did some video editing.
‘This is on a different level.’
He recognized that what he had done was grime on his toenails. At this time.
‘Oh right.’
Kang Woo-jin, who was watching the trailer, turned off the video he was watching and accessed phone banking as if something came to his mind. It was expressionless, but there was a faint anticipation mixed in it.
– Talk, talk.
a few touches. Kang Woo-jin’s poker face shook slightly at the bank account balance spread out in front of him.
‘······crazy. came in.’
Han Ye-jeong, a stylist with a good eye, asked Kang Woo-jin.
“Brother, why? What’s not good?”
Woojin shook his head solemnly at her question, which had changed to brown bob.
“No, I’m fine.”
Kang Woo-jin, who answered moderately, turned his gaze to the phone screen again. He was already almost dancing inwardly.
The reason was simple.
’60 million, 60 million in one shot!’
Because tens of millions of won were stamped on his pitiful balance. The agency’s contract fee and the first appearance fee for ‘Profiler Hanryang’ were paid. In fact, the contract money from the agency came in earlier, and the first appearance fee for the drama was paid today. Kang Woo-jin confirmed it late.
‘Cause I’ve been out of my mind
Whatever it is, it’s been two months since I started acting. More than 60 million won in my first monthly salary came into my bank account. even.
‘Didn’t I say that Hanryang kept coming in after the first round?’
There was still quite a bit of money left to be paid. Of course, he was the one who would pay a bigger fee in the future. Kang Woo-jin himself didn’t realize it yet. Still, 60 million won was a lot of money. To be honest, Kang Woo-jin, who is a petit bourgeois, was seeing the amount for the first time.
‘Wow- Mr. What am I supposed to do with this?’
Therefore, there was a strange twitch in Woojin’s expressionless expression. It was forced, but joy leaked out. Han Jeong-jeong, who glanced at this, whispered to Choi Seong-gun in the passenger seat.
“CEO. Woojin oppa is a bit strange right now.”
Choi Seong-gun, who secretly checked Kang Woo-jin, had seen Woo-jin’s current condition once.
“Leave it, I’m practicing my role again.”
“ah-”
“If he does that sometimes, just don’t disturb him.”
“yes.”
Kang Woo-jin did not notice this.
‘What am I supposed to do with this? Sir, I’ve never touched such an amount, so I don’t know. I’ll have to give some to my parents first.’
I was lost in thinking about what to do with the large amount of money I saw for the first time.
‘ah! Should I collect more and move?’
The next day, Wednesday the 13th. Woojin Kang’s studio.
It was morning. The time is around 9 o’clock. Wearing a man-to-man suit suitable for the warmer weather, Kang Woo-jin stood in front of the shoe rack. But he didn’t put on the shoes right away.
“Um- that’s brilliant.”
I was looking at the trophy on the shoe rack with satisfaction. what would it be It was the grand prize trophy of the Mise-en-scène Film Festival.
“Hyung, I’m coming.”
How to say, Woojin was nurturing the object he had received for the first time in his life. He deserved it because the first award he received after two months of becoming an actor was the Daesang.
soon.
– Knocked up.
Kang Woo-jin, who finished greeting the trophy, left the studio. Today, too, a black van was waiting in front of the house. but.
“older brother! good morning!”
“Hello Brother.”
Jang Soo-hwan and Han Ye-jeong were the only ones who picked up Woo-jin. Choi Seong-gun was nowhere to be seen.
“hello.”
“My brother! Would you like to talk a little more comfortably?”
“Right, brother. We are uncomfortable.”
“OK got it.”
The reason was simple.
“Hyung-nim, I’m going straight to work! ah! You know what’s going on at work right now?!”
Kang Woo-jin’s agency, bw Entertainment, was a battlefield right now. It was difficult for CEO Seong-gun Choi to vacate his seat. If it’s high season, it’s high season. In fact, by the time Woojin got into the van, all employees of bw Entertainment were constantly busy.
“Yes yes, it’s bw entu! Oh, an interview with Hong Hye-yeon? I’ll check!”
“yes? No, reporter. What are you talking about? Is it a problem that I asked you to take down the article because it was a joke?”
“Ah- Mr. Kang Woo-jin, nothing has been decided yet. yes yes. Then could you send it by quick? a meeting? Then I will ask the representative.”
“Mr. Hyeyeon Hong, could you send us advertising inquiries via e-mail?”
No, to be exact, it was right after the ‘Mise-en-scène Film Festival’. Originally, it was not idle with Hong Hye-yeon’s power, but work increased with recent issues and Kang Woo-jin joining in. Of course, Hong Hye-yeon is overwhelming, but there were also inquiries about Kang Woo-jin.
Thanks to that, the PR team had to answer calls like crazy.
“Quick! Where should I put it?”
Quick came to the crazy bw entertainment quite often. Most of the contents were scenarios or scripts. When meetings are difficult, I use Quick, but looking at the amount piled up on the management team’s desk, it usually looked four or five times larger.
At this point, Choi Seong-gun, the leader.
“Okay, then Hyeyeon-ssi will go as usual and Woo-jin will cover up to the back for a while.”
It was during a brief meeting with executives.
“And Woojin must have joined, I think we need to increase the number of staff. What is the most urgent thing?”
“I think the PR team is an urgent priority.”
“hmm.”
“The management team is also struggling a bit.”
“We will figure out the number of people and increase them as quickly as possible.”
Thirty minutes later, Kang Woo-jin, a newcomer to bw Entertainment, joined the company. Since he was still face-to-face with the staff, there were quite a few people who were curious about Woo-jin.
Anyway, Woojin sat down with Choi Seong-gun in the representative office. Choi Seong-gun was the first to talk.
“Woo Jin-ah, I can understand it by looking at the company situation. It’s all over the place now. In particular, the number of scripts and scenarios that come to you has increased dramatically, and you have quite a few interview schedules. How would you like to do it?”
interview? oh that’s still a bit. Kang Woo-jin, who silently looked at Choi Seong-gun, was negative. Well, someday I’ll have to digest that kind of schedule.
‘I’m still not ready in my heart.’
To be honest, I was still a bit uncomfortable. Thanks to that, Woojin lowered his voice and answered.
“I’m feeling a bit excited.”
“yes? Honestly, I still think it’s right for you to go to mysticism. Anyway, I’ll have to look around on Youtube or the media for a few rounds of interviews, so the reaction won’t be big yet. Only the image will be consumed, but it’s a waste.”
“I am of the same opinion.”
“The timing I think is to maintain a little more mysticism even after going out?”
Choi Seong-gun, who pulled his body to Kang Woo-jin, expressed his sincerity in the briefing.
“First of all, the media and public opinion are curious about you. However, there is almost no information, and in the meantime, the grand prize and the grand prize at the ‘Mise-en-scène Film Festival’ continue. Will there be more question marks? Then, with Kwon Ki-taek’s case, bang. Well, roughly like this.”
Alright, well, I don’t know. He could hear it, but most of Kang Woo-jin had no idea what he was talking about. However, Kang Woo-jin noticed that Seong-gun Choi was making a proper plan.
“Yes, it seems fine.”
“Anyway, there are two days left for the first room, so let’s hide it as much as possible. Be careful what you say to people close to you.”
“Your representative.”
Choi Seong-gun, smiling with satisfaction, stood up and moved to his desk, picked up dozens of books and placed them in front of Kang Woo-jin. Woojin flinched inwardly at the amount of violence, but looked at Choi Seong-gun dryly.
Choi Seong-gun, smiling brightly, shrugged.
“The script that came to you, the scenario. In addition, it includes Melo and Rocco, which I separately recognized.”
In other words, dozens of books piled up in front of Woojin’s eyes were scripts and scenarios. so many? Surprised inside, Woojin struggled to remain expressionless.
‘Whoa- that’s crazy. Is this all coming to me? lots of dogs When are you going to read all of this??’
At this time, Choi Seong-gun derived the wrong answer from Woo-jin’s expression.
“Are you disappointed? Haha, don’t be disappointed. Those that are meaningless were first filtered out by the company. But, it’s a little less than expected. Probably because you lack information.”
Woojin nodded slowly and returned his gaze to the piled up scripts and scenarios. Of course, all of them have black squares attached to them. It was Woojin who roughly picked up the top one and unfolded it, and Choi Seong-gun smiled and added an explanation.
“You have that godlike feeling, take a look and choose. It doesn’t have to be Melo or Rocco. Or, if you don’t mind, you can go to Loco for another one. time flies Director Kwon Ki-taek’s side is in the early stages of the free, so there’s time to put in a few short ones, right? Well, it’s your choice.”
“Isn’t it time to rest?”
“That’s right, right now, it’s better to go densely without any rain.”
Kang Woo-jin, who had been listening to the explanation calmly, suddenly stopped. Of course, he was secretly holding his index finger, and Choi Seong-gun did not notice. In other words, Kang Woo-jin.
‘Oh- this.’
It was a quick trip to sub-space.
‘Did you get a B+ from the beginning?’
Pointing to the scenario in his hand, Woojin asked Seonggun Choi.
“CEO, what is this?”
“uh? Ah- I think that was probably a cameo.”
“A cameo?”
“Ugh. I didn’t have a long phone call with the director, but I heard that they were already filming, and they saw you at the ‘Mise-en-scène Film Festival’. We also spoke Japanese. I really want to meet and talk.”
this moment.
– Smart, rattle!
The door to the representative office slammed open. Bonnie was the manager of the management team. It was a strange face that her eyes were dilated and wide.
“Dae, CEO. You should see me.”
Choi Seong-gun, who narrowed his forehead, stood up with a sigh.
“why? What is it?”
“No……someone came to visit.”
“Who are you?”
Soon, Seong-gun Choi left the representative office. At the same time, I noticed a group of four or five people standing near the office entrance. Seeing the man full of gray hair standing in the lead, Choi Seong-gun also opened his mouth slightly. Because I wanted to be in vain.
“what?”
A man full of gray hair approached him with a smile and asked for a handshake. The words spoken are Japanese.
“Sorry, did I come too suddenly?”
Japanese master director Kyotaro appeared out of nowhere.
“I’m here to meet actor Kang Woo-jin.”
