History (3) >

Monday ended and Tuesday began. It was only a few days ago that 'Island of the Missing' rose to the top spot of all time, but the domestic media and public opinion were still heated with the story of 'Island of the Missing'. Well, of course, it didn't matter that the number of viewers for 'Island of the Missing' was dropping significantly.

Because 'Island of the Missing' is like setting a new record every day.

It has already surpassed 17 million and is heading towards 18 million. And Kang Woo-jin was looking at his article.

『[Special] Kang Woo-jin, who changed the history of the Korean film industry in the second year of his debut, why we are excited about his future』

The location is in front of the set of Leech's house, where many staff members are busy filming. Woojin, who had already transformed into Park Ha-seong from hair to makeup, looked solemn, but inwardly he was nodding and praising the driver.

'Yes, yes, I have eyes to see.'

A short waiting time before starting filming. Usually, he had to look at the scenario to come up with a concept, but these past few days, Woojin has been intoxicated with joy. Although he somehow maintains his poker face.

'Ah, I need to get rid of this feeling quickly.'

At this time.

"Mr. Woojin! "Standby!"

The production department staff called Woojin. Woojin, who had poured cold water on his heart, quickly woke up. Then suddenly.

'Oh, by the way, how many days are left to film the leech?'

I remembered that it wasn't long before I could see the set of this house. After 'Island of the Missing' was released, it felt like something was going on. Of course, the melting time is also the same.

'Half a year has already passed.'

As Kang Woo-jin walked to the filming zone where cameras were crowded, he felt that time was passing quickly.

'Well, isn't it natural since there are so many things to do?'

Director Ahn Ga-bok looks at Kang Woo-jin reflected on such a monitor. Before he knew it, dark circles appeared on his face and wrinkles increased significantly. But his eyes are still sharp. Director Ga-bok Ang was having a meeting and talking with the CEO of the film company who was at the scene.

"Director, are you okay?"

"why. "Are you going to take care of the old man's health?"

"N-no. "You look very tired."

"How can you not be tired? I'm filming at a speed several times higher than the original. Look at the kids on set, they're all having a hard time. "The only one alive here is Woojin."

Director Ahn Ga-bok pointed with his index finger at Kang Woo-jin, who was having a conversation with actor Shin Shim-ho in the center of the filming zone. Then the CEO of the film company let out a small sigh and shook his head.

"Woojin is amazing every time I see him. I asked Choi Dae-pyo about Woojin's schedule the other day, and it was almost hell from morning to night. I even went back and forth to Japan recently. "But you are so calm."

"Maybe it's because I'm young. Well, if he's that much of a monster, I guess he's also born with physical strength."

"······It is not at a level that can be covered by exercise."

"That friend is so distracted, where is the bird that can take care of his health? "I need to run more."

The CEO of the film company, who was looking at director Anga Bok with slightly worried eyes, changed the subject.

"I'm sorry, Director. "Have you figured out the timing to crank it up?"

Director Ang Bok picked up the filming storyboard on the table and sounded old.

"If we keep going at this rate, we should be able to rob it next week."

"Post-production work."

"Editing should start at the same time as cranking it up. "There are some sketches made during filming, so we will be able to get them right before September 30th."

In other words, it's imminent. The CEO of the film company responded by firmly nodding his face.

"All right. Then, I will start preparing according to the Cannes schedule at the end of September."

First of all, the plane ticket came first.

Meanwhile, L.A.

It was morning in Korea, but afternoon in LA. Perhaps because it is rush hour, the roads are full of people and cars. However, even at this time, there were people who were preparing for the future without leaving work.

It was global superstar Miley Kara.

Her recently released movie also achieved decent results, and she was in a lot of trouble over the issue with a Korean actor. A few days ago, Kara posted her current status on her Instagram, which has over 100 million followers. Roughly with the progress of her new album.

-[······Kang Woo-jin! Congratulations on setting a new record for the movie you appeared in!]

I mentioned Kang Woo-jin. Because she also heard about the great success of 'Island of the Missing'. It was already an established fact that Kang Woo-jin would participate in her new album, and thanks to Kara's post, many foreigners also flocked to Woo-jin's SNS. She could be found in a large agency building in LA.

To be exact, it was inside a studio that doubled as a conference room.

There is a large monitor and various devices, and you can see a L-shaped desk that can accommodate dozens of people. Among them, the one sitting at the head of the table was Kara. She has blond hair tied up and wears a loose hoodie. The makeup was not heavy, and Kara's blue eyes were focused on the very large monitor in front.

"······Mmm."

Of course, there were dozens of foreign staff on either side of Kara. They are all looking at the same place as Kara. The monitor was printing out various decisions regarding Kara's new album.

"I think I'm good? "What do you all think?"

What is the overall concept of this album, and what is the costume concept? What is the title of the song? What is the music video concept? What is the schedule from album production to release and activities? What about marketing and promotion? A lot of information and data is pouring in. However, because Kara is a veteran, she calmly coordinated her opinions with the staff.

The songs to be included in her new album have already been decided. All that's left is the recording.

Soon, Kara, who was listening to the recording schedule, loosened her blonde hair and spoke to the manager sitting next to her. As expected, the tone was a bit cold.

"You can think of it starting around July. "What about Kang Woo-jin?"

"I have to pass it on. Last time I contacted them, they said it would be okay if it took place in July. How many days do you think Kang Woo-jin will work on?"

"Probably 3 to 5 days. From recording to filming music videos."

"Okay, then I'll first send the content and song guide to Kang Woo-jin."

For reference, the order of work was that KARA started the official recording first, and then Kang Woo-jin joined late to proceed. Even if you record it separately, you can mix it together.

The meeting then moved on to the music video.

Since the director and storyboard had already been decided long ago, blonde Kara bit her lip while watching the music video storyboard saved on her tablet. This was what she did whenever she was a little worried.

"I'm a little disappointed. This kind of atmosphere was also seen in the previous album."

"Do you want to make corrections?"

"I wish there was an overall story. And more acting needs to be added. "As long as it doesn't put a burden on me and Mr. Woojin." "Okay."

Kara added a request to the nodding teams.

"And please include a piano scene in the music video. Of course, Woojin will play it."

Friday the 18th. korea,

A shaman's house near Sinchon Station. It was a very luxurious place, dazzling from the entrance. There are quite a few customers waiting nearby as it is quite busy. In the main room, the mysterious paintings hanging on the ceiling and the candles on the platform are noticeable. Of course, so did the small dolls placed behind the candles.

It feels like it's a shaman's house.

But the owner, the shaman, was nowhere to be seen. The shaman could be found in the back room. She is a middle-aged woman who looks roughly in her 60s. She wore heavy makeup and a hanbok. She was probably about to welcome her guests.

The shaman moved as if she was ready and opened the closed room.

-Suddenly!

The interior of the room had a normal atmosphere, unlike a shaman's house. It was plain, without any special decorations, and a short, short-haired woman was lying face down on a bed covered with a gray blanket. When I looked closely, I saw that the short-haired woman was lying face down, concentrating on reading something.

A shaman with heavy makeup spoke to a woman with short hair.

"daughter. "Is it fun?"

The woman with short hair is probably the shaman's daughter. Then her daughter nodded, keeping her eyes focused on what she was seeing. Then she answered briefly.

"Yeah, it's fun."

Slightly gloomy voice. After answering, the daughter stood up and sat down. But she still had what she was looking at in her hands. She was a book with a gray cover and these words were written on the cover:

-Beneficial Evil/ Episode 1.

It was the script for 'Beneficial Evil'. She said the reason her daughter was watching the 'Beneficial Evil' script was simple. Because she was Lim Hae-eun, who passed the large-scale audition for 'Beneficial Evil' all the way to the final. Just looking at it, the puppy merchant Lim Hae-eun waved her script with an expressionless expression.

"The author writes well."

The shaman who was quietly looking at his daughter, Lim Hae-eun, let out a long sigh.

"Do you really need to do that project? "Why do you have to make a guy with evil spirits play the lead role?"

"It doesn't matter Kang Woo-jin, I'm just doing it because it's a difficult opportunity to seize."

"······Have you ever seen Kang Woo-jin in person?"

"yet. But soon, there will be a gathering of actors to film before the script reading. "I'll see you then."

The shaman who touched her forehead chanted to her daughter as if telling her to take care of it.

"Anyway, be careful. "Because that guy Kang Woo-jin looks dangerous."

At this time, in Hongdae.

Basement of a moderately large building. On a stage in what at first glance appears to be a small theater, a handsome man with a clean or good impression is acting alone. There is no one else in the entire small theater other than him.

The man was Jo Moo-chan, who passed 'Beneficial Evil'.

At the time of the large-scale audition, he was a very contrasting person to Kang Woo-jin, so he received a strong attention from producer Song Man-woo, and he was one of the members of the professional theater group, considered the best among Korea's senior actors. Jo Moo-chan, who was acting alone on stage, had a script in his hand.

Of course, it was the script for episode 1 of 'Beneficial Evil'.

It looked like he was probably practicing to die alone.

It was at this time.

-Sigh.

An old man came into the empty theater. He crossed the center of the appropriately furnished audience seats. A gray-looking head with a proper mix of white and black fur and a wrinkled face. His age seems roughly similar to that of director Anga Bok. Additionally, the beard that grows from under his ears to his chin and under his nose is impressive.

He was a senior actor specialist.

A specialized station appeared, but Jo Moo-chan, who was on stage, did not notice because he was so focused. Soon, Jeon Jeong-guk, who arrived right in front of the stage, looked at Jo Moo-chan and slapped the floor of the stage.

This is the time.

"ah! "Stop, teacher."

Jo Moo-chan stopped acting and ran to the front of the professional bureau. He lost strength in his speech and actions. What can I say, the whole thing feels like hot soup. Either way, veteran actor Jeon Jeong-guk, who was looking at Jo Moo-chan, opened his mouth.

"Can you beat Kang Woo-jin by doing that moderately?"

"······Um, that teacher."

"Can you win?"

"Well, because Kang Woo-jin is an idol to me."

"If your idol loses to you, wouldn't it be okay to replace him with someone else?"

"······"

"Kang Woo-jin. This guy changed the history of the movie industry. "It rose to first place."

Of course, I was talking about 'Island of the Missing'.

"The road was very clean."

"yes? Ah-yes."

"In other words, as long as you jump over it, it's all yours."

"···All right."

The professional bureau's face becomes even more stiff.

"Cho Moo-chan. It's like you're a member of my theater group and when you go out, you become my face. You shouldn't apply it carelessly. Risk your life for this 'beneficial evil'. Kang Woo-jin That guy is a genius, but you are a genius too. "My eyes are clear."

"thank you."

"But being a genius isn't enough, you have to be different to be like Kang Woo-jin. "I can see it with my eyes."

Jeon Jeon-guk, who had been reciting a series of words, spit out his conclusion to Jo Moo-chan, who was muttering.

"Kang Woo-jin is a monster. To face a guy like that, you have to become a monster too. Do you understand?"

A few days later, Jeonju. Early moning.

A familiar comprehensive set site. About 100 staff members were deployed around the large house set and internal sets of 'Leech'. They are busy carrying things that will be used for filming, such as cameras, lighting, props, and audio.

Although it was early in the morning, the spirit was overflowing.

Leading the staff is veteran director Ga-bok Ang.

"No, put the camera up first from the house set. "I'll go from there."

"yep!!"

After giving instructions, Director Ang Bok took out a thin wad of paper he had put in the back pocket of his jeans.

-Sigh.

This was the filming storyboard for 'Leech'. And we're almost at the end.

"···The end has finally come."

Because today was 'leech' crank-up day.

At the same time, Kang Woo-jin's officetel.

Kang Woo-jin, with a solemn face and a hat pulled down, entered the elevator. He clicked on the basement level and raised his cell phone.

-June 24th.

-7:10 am.

June was already coming to an end. Soon, Kang Woo-jin, who was tilting his head to both sides, muttered to himself. Of course, inside.

'Oh, that won't work. 'Before filming, I have to charge it in the subspace.'

Aside from his recent minor schedule, Kang Woo-jin is concentrating on filming 'Leech'.

'It's the last shoot – time really flies.'

When he got off the elevator and entered the underground parking lot, he saw a familiar van. Waiting to pick up Kang Woo-jin.

Woojin got into the van and greeted the team members in a low tone, and Choi Seong-gun, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly showed Kang Woo-jin the tablet screen he was looking at.

"It's finally here, 'Beneficial Evil'"

Kang Woo-jin casually looks at the tablet screen. The article was being printed. Woojin's face was plastered on the door, and the title was as follows.

『[Official]Netflix's 'Beneficial Evil', which is targeting the world, announces the entire cast, led by Kang Woo-jin… But many unknown and new actors, an unconventional casting!』

The full cast of 'Beneficial Evil' has been announced.
