A Twist. To PD Yoon Byung-seon, the first impression of Kang Woojin was quite a twist.
‘When he acted as ‘Park Dae-ri,’ even if he was a bit brutal, he was also a bit talkative. But his real character gives off a calm vibe. Is he naturally not talkative? A failure?’
Yoon Byung-seon slightly felt uneasy.
Up until now, many characters had appeared in his variety show and many celebrities had come and gone, but the least appealing character was someone without enthusiasm. PD Yoon Byung-seon sensed a subtle, yet noticeable, lack of enthusiasm from Kang Woojin.
“Wow, such a simple response. Woojin, you’re conscious of yourself now, aren’t you? Are you perhaps really nervous?”
PD Yoon Byung-seon chuckled playfully. However, Kang Woojin maintained a poker face. Self-awareness? What’s that? His nervousness reached its peak. In such a state, Woojin responded to PD Yoon Byung-seon in a stern manner.
“I’ll do my best.”
Do what? Yoon Byung-seon was confused. Was this actor’s enthusiasm exploding or crashing? He had seen hundreds, maybe thousands of celebrities, but for the first time, he couldn’t gauge the character.
“Ah- Thank you. For now, would you like to sit down?”
“Yes.”
Kang Woojin, with his head slightly bowed, walked slowly towards the shooting area. PD Yoon Byung-seon and the writers watched him go.
“What a twist. Woojin is very quiet.”
“He’s so quite, isn’t he? How could someone like that play the role of ‘Park Dae-ri’?”
“That’s what makes him a good actor. His real self and his character are completely opposite. Anyway, he’s got a strange aura.”
By this time, Kang Woojin had entered the shooting zone targeted by dozens of cameras. A long desk was set up, and behind it was a large poster for ‘Profiler Hanryang.’ There were many small cameras on the desk. It seemed they’d start with a talk show segment first, and after the first recording, it would turn into a game segment the in second part.
Anyway.
“…”
After scanning the area briefly, Kang Woojin decisively sat at the far end. There were many lights. Many cameras. Looking ahead, dozens of staff were bustling about. Half of this scene was familiar to Woojin, and half was strange.
‘Wow, there are so many cameras. Aren’t there three times more than in dramas? Are all these small ones also cameras?’
There was indeed a significant difference between filming for dramas and variety shows. Therefore, Woojin maintained an even more intense poker face.
‘Let’s keep the concept, but make the responses and reactions more in my style. Damn, honestly, I don’t have the luxury to worry about the lines or think about such things.’
Externally, he’d use his usual persona, but would do it his way. His thoughts were already erratic, and his heart rate was still rising.
It was at that moment.
“Hello-”
Hong Hye-yeon entered the studio. The studio’s atmosphere immediately lifted because of her.
“Hello, Hye-yeon!”
“PD! Hye-yeon is here!”
Her appearance today was natural. Her let-down long hair, jeans, and a snugly fitting t-shirt. After greeting PD Yoon Byung-seon, Hong Hye-yeon, while adjusting her microphone, turned her gaze to the shooting zone.
