Chapter 180

I Will Live as an Actor Episode 180: Jang

Young-Kuk Syndrome.

Syndrome was used as a psychopathological word in the past, but in recent years it is often used as a positive word to refer to a social phenomenon.

It is not common for an actor to develop a syndrome. For example, it was a phenomenon that could only be seen in stars who led popular culture, such as Michael Jackson or the Beatles Queen.

“How does Kim Jae-cheol, pop culture critic, view the current situation?”

A heated debate is in full swing in the studio. Ironically, the person who became a hot topic in discussions dealing with political or ideological topics was an actor named ‘Jang Young-guk’.

“I think it’s mysterious, mysterious, and almost like a miracle.”

“Are you talking about the syndrome surrounding actor Jang Young-guk?”

“No, the syndrome about him is natural. In particular, it is natural that Chu Pung Sa, which was released in Hong Kong, was not only a huge box office hit, but also received many invitations to overseas film festivals. However, what I was talking about was about an actor named Jang Young-guk.”

“Could you be more specific?”

The critic who received the host’s question answered while touching the tip of his chin.

“As a pop culture critic, I had the opportunity to meet many actors and singers. Among them, there were many new actors as well as veterans who had experienced many hardships in the field for a long time. While freshness and boldness are the charms of new actors, veterans typically represent their careers with experience and cool-headedness. However, actor Jang Young-guk did not fall into either of these two boundaries. Although he was clearly a new actor, he was more experienced than most veterans and showed a charisma that went beyond boldness. I had this intuition after watching his acting at the filming location of Confession of a Priest in the past. “I thought, ‘This is the person who will lead the Korean film industry in the future.’”

Among popular culture critics, Kim Jae-cheol boasted considerable authority.

He was notorious for his sharp criticism and harsh criticism that went beyond that. As a joke, there was even a saying that if Kim Jae-cheol attended a movie preview, investment companies would start a business.

Since it was such a high compliment from someone like that, I can’t help but feel special.

“As critic Kim Jae-cheol said, there were many evaluations that actor Jang Young-guk showed acting on a different level from other actors his age. He is an actor whose filmography he has accumulated so far and whose filmography he will build in the future are also highly anticipated. Just like us, the public’s interest is also skyrocketing as the days go by. “Then let me ask you one more question.”

“yes.”

“Actor Jang Young-guk is gaining so much popularity that he is causing a syndrome due to the movie Chupungsa, which was released in Hong Kong, and The Little Mermaid Prince, which is currently airing in Korea, and in the midst of this, a scandal broke out. And that’s against the female lead filming the drama together. Although the agency in question stated that it was ‘unfounded’, the public’s suspicions still persist. “What do you think about actor Jang Young-guk’s scandal?”

Critic Kim Jae-cheol frowned with an expression as if he were saying, ‘This is just a rumor that is being washed away by a ghost.’

“What does that matter?”

“yes... ... ?”

“What does it matter whether the scandal is true or not? Mass media is also a problem. Why are you so obsessed with everything? And the public also needs to think differently! It’s okay for an actor to just act well, but can’t he have a bit of a relationship? It could be because they are young men and women! and.”

The host clearly looks embarrassed by the sudden rush. I quickly try to change the subject.

“I think it would be a relief if the scandal were true!”

But at that moment, the critic looked at the live camera and said something.

“Isn’t this an issue that deserves support regarding actor Jang Young-guk’s sexual identity, which has been in the spotlight for a while?”

* * *

-Isn’t this an issue that deserves support regarding actor Jang Young-guk’s sexual identity?

Lee Bong-chun, who was behind the wheel, was so shocked that he turned down the radio volume. The highlight of last night’s current affairs debate program was played on the radio.

Lee Bong-chun glanced at the rear-view mirror nervously.

“It’s okay bro. “Turn up the volume.”

“England, are you okay?”

“Which one? “Has my gender identity become more certain?”

“Oh, no, I mean, as soon as I get back to the country, I have to go straight to the filming site... I’m just asking if you’re in good condition.”

“are you okay. About this much. And considering that filming was delayed because of me, I can’t rest anymore. “I have to muster up all my strength to start filming.”

In particular, in the case of Yeon-soo, didn’t he repeatedly apologize to the staff and bow his head as if he were a high-ranking criminal?

“What’s wrong with you today? “We guessed it several times.”

“Because my body forgot... ... .”

“uh?”

“It’s already been 15 days since I practiced with my brother, and the only time I did it was in the two days I came down to Busan with the instructor. Do you remember?”

England looked like he was scratching his head. In fact, your memory is much better than that of others, so if you were a criminal, you would have already forgotten it.

Since he remembered it, he naturally thought that Yeonsu would also remember to guess the sum.

“They didn’t even come to check it out before filming.”

“It seems like Yeonsu got on your nerves because of the paparazzi... It’s all my fault, I’m sorry.”

Britain admitted its fault. Even if you think about it a hundred times, this was 100% your fault.

“......”

“Then let’s ask for the director’s understanding and try again. “If this continues, I think we’ll just be filming this scene all day.”

“Doesn’t it bother you?”

“what?”

“Look even now, they’re pointing a camera towards us from the observatory over there. “Those people are probably still filming us.”

“Oh, it must be a tourist.”

“I saw a tourist carrying a big cannon camera like that! “Don’t do that, stand up quickly!”

That’s what I heard and saw. If you were trying to photograph seagulls or other types of birds, you wouldn’t be pointing the camera towards them.

Yeonsu quickly tried to get up from his seat. That sight broke England’s heart even more.

“are you okay.”

England grabbed Yeonsu’s hand as she stood up.

Yeonsu’s face turned red at the sudden contact. However, it was not safe. If the paparazzi were to film this moment, it was clear that it would be featured in the media again.

“If you’re going to be photographed, you should take a nice photograph.”

“uh?”

Yeonsu looked dumbfounded at England’s remarks.

Yeonsu opened her eyes wide when she saw England getting up from his seat. Why don’t you hold both of your hands?

Then, move your stance forward. It seemed like they instantly became attached to each other.

The paparazzi, who were secretly watching the two people from the observatory, must have opened their eyes wide at the current situation.

It wasn’t bad to just have a conversation scene, but the two people stood up and were close to each other as if they were hugging. However, England says that he is not bothered by the paparazzi.

“We have to rehearse again. If I go into filming without being able to practice and get an NG, this time I won’t end with just saying I’m truly sorry. If another article appears with this photo, just say it was during a filming rehearsal. “There are dancing scenes in the live broadcast anyway.”

Yeonsu nodded briefly. England spoke at that sight.

“I hope you don’t worry too much about dating rumors. “I don’t want to say this to an actress, but if this scandal becomes a problem in Yeonsu’s future.”

“What if it happens?”

England holds Yeonsu’s hands together and dances just like he did when filming.

Obviously, the staff, who were constantly in trouble during filming, did not mess up even once this time. England smiles at that and says.

“I will take responsibility for you then.”
