An unexpected ambush. Hwarin, standing in front of the reading room’s door, felt her heart beating wildly, but she was clearly flustered.
‘When I see it in front of my eyes, it’s more than I could have imagined······’
It was about Kang Woo-jin’s acting. When she first joined ‘Nam Sa-chin’, Hwa-rin was just full of anticipation. She was happy to be working on a project with someone she admired as a fan, not as an actor or colleague.
Of course, that was the case until yesterday.
But that mindset changed 180 degrees in this reading room. Woojin’s destructive power, unfolding ‘Han In-ho’ right in front of my nose, was terrifying.
‘I expected it, but I didn’t know it would collapse in just a few seconds.’
The beginning of her fandom was his acting, and Hwa-rin, who had been watching Kang Woo-jin’s acting, had come prepared for it. However, she was completely destroyed by one look. Isn’t that right? Even if he is a Sung-deok, how can he resist those melodramatic looks? Woo-jin’s acting was even more vivid.
‘I just now saw the surrounding scenery as a flower viewing scene.’
The current Hwarin is not a top singer or actress at the peak of her popularity, but a frail girl who has been in a ‘deuktong accident’. Hwarin also debuted in the entertainment industry and this was her first time experiencing something like this, so she didn’t know what to do. She was unfamiliar with ‘deokjil’, but ‘seongdeok’ came too quickly.
Next, Hwarin.
-Ugh.
I gently tapped my throbbing heart while sweeping my long hair back.
“With just one look, it can become like this, but a kiss scene…is that even possible?”
The question was posed to me. Moreover, it wasn’t just a simple kiss scene, it was a deep kiss scene. My current feelings are completely different from when I heard Director Shin Dong-chun’s explanation earlier. The level of difficulty has increased by dozens of levels.
Maybe that’s why Hwarin felt weak for a moment.
‘Wouldn’t it be okay to subtly suggest going light on the day of the shoot?’
But she soon changes her mind.
“No, even stronger at times like this.”
Hwarin has been through many hardships since her debut in the girl group. If there is one thing she learned from that environment, it is that the more afraid you are, the more resilient you have to be.
There it is.
‘I hate causing harm to Woojin more than dying.’
Hwa-rin only wanted to show Kang Woo-jin her good side. It wouldn’t be good to be weak. Yes, I can do it. I’m an actor too. It’s tough, but let’s go that hard. Hwa-rin steadily gathered the pieces of her broken heart.
That was when.
-Slurp.
The closed glass door of the reading room opened gently and pushed Hwarin’s back. Hwarin flinched and turned around. Soon, she gasped.
“ah.”
Because Kang Woo-jin came out with a cold expression. Soon, Hwa-rin started to control her expression and Woo-jin spoke to her in a low tone.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t know you were there.”
“···No, it’s okay. I was just standing there like an idiot.”
“But you said you were going to the bathroom.”
“Yes? Me? Oh! Yes, yes. That’s right. I went and came back. I got a call.”
Hwarin tried hard to act indifferent. Kang Woojin, who didn’t notice this, looked at Hwarin quietly and tilted his head inwardly.
‘Are you okay? Why do your cheeks look a little swollen?’
Because her condition was strange. However, I didn’t think deeply about it. I thought, “Well, that’s probably it.” Woojin nodded slightly and started walking away.
“I need to go to the bathroom too.”

Suddenly, Hwarin grabbed Kang Woojin’s short sleeve.
“Mr. Woojin.”
What is it? As Woojin turned his head, Hwarin, who had come very close, looked up at Kang Woojin. The distance between her and Woojin was about two fists. The height difference between the two was just right. It was just silence. At this moment, Kang Woojin’s instinct raised its head again.
‘Wow, it’s amazing, it’s really pretty.’
Thinking about it, this was Woojin’s first time seeing Hwarin up close. Hwarin had clean skin, a natural arrangement of her eyes, nose, and mouth, and the mole under her eyes gave off a strange charm. For a moment, Kang Woojin unconsciously lost himself in admiration of Hwarin’s visuals.
Oh, no. You little shit, get out of here.
Woojin, who almost smiled, barely managed to get the concept right. Then he asked Hwarin, who was looking up at him, solemnly.
“···I’m sorry, what are you doing?”
“Check the height difference.”
“What’s the height difference?”
At this moment, Hwarin took a step back and her face turned determined like that of a general about to enter battle.
“Yes. I’m going to check the height for the… no, revised scene.”
“If that’s the case, you can check further.”
“Can you just raise your arms a little? It’s like a rehearsal.”
Of course, of course. Woojin, who was secretly shouting “Obcalls” excessively, answered cynically on the outside.
“As you wish.”
“Oh, yes.”
Hwarin, who had hesitated for a moment, slowly raised both arms to Kang Woojin’s face. However, she quickly withdrew her arms that had been raised to around the level of her ears. This was because her heart was beating again.
“Yes, yes. I think it’s okay.”
Soon, she storms into the reading room without any explanation. Other people might think she is uncomfortable.
‘I guess you were embarrassed.’
Kang Woo-jin, who already knew the secret, just thought Hwa-rin was cute. When will you tell him?
‘I’ve been treated like this in my life. If I told my kids, they’d probably be jealous and try to ignore me.’
Kang Woo-jin, who was thinking of his testicle friends, held back a laughter and moved to the bathroom.
A few minutes later.
The script reading resumed again. Fortunately, Hwa-rin did not have to rush to the bathroom. However, she tried to avoid Kang Woo-jin’s gaze, or rather Han In-ho’s, throughout the reading.
Just reciting lines.
However, there were no major problems with the emotions or acting in the lines, and Kang Woo-jin also played Han In-ho without any problems.
Reading that has become boring without me knowing.
10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes. As time went by, the atmosphere became more intense, and the actors of ‘Nam Sa-chin’ were increasingly fascinated by Kang Woo-jin’s acting. In the beginning, seeing Han In-ho’s emotions close to the ending actually spurred admiration.
‘Wow – Just playing with emotions.’
‘He acts so comfortably, it’s crazy.’
‘Will it get darker once we start filming?’
The emotions he showed were so free.
From present to past and back to present again. The emotional line was a bit jumbled in the script, but Woojin’s expression was completely free of any hesitation. It really felt like this scene was going back and forth between the past and present.

Is that why?
“Thank you for your effort.”
When director Shin Dong-chun announced the end of the reading, the large crowd gathered in the reading room erupted in strong applause.
-Clap clap clap clap clap clap!
A few reporters who watched the entire reading let out a murmur of admiration.
“Hey, you’re killing me? To be honest, even though it’s a project, it’s a short story, so it’s pretty haphazard. Even if you just look at it roughly, it’s not a short story, right?”
“That’s what I’m saying, that guy Kang Woo-jin didn’t explode for nothing. And with Hwa-rin joining in, oh my – it’s a shame this is only episode 4.”
“The script is good and the actors are beyond words. Am I the only one looking forward to this?”
and.
“Oh, everyone, thank you for your hard work. The reading took longer than expected. There were some sudden script revisions, but I’m so grateful to the actors who handled it well. I plan to convey this individually later.”
Director Shin Dong-chun of Sangseok gave a brief schedule for ‘Nam Sa-chin’.
“The entire filming will take about a month. Of course, it could take longer. Also, the first filming day is scheduled for around July 20th.”
There are about ten days left for the principal filming of ‘Nam Sa-chin’.
since.
News of the script reading for ‘Nam Sa-chin’ began to appear on the internet the next day, Saturday the 11th. Reporters who attended the reading are the source. The speed at which it was thrown out was fast and the amount was large. You could really feel that Netflix was putting in the effort.

The content included the occasional glimpse of the entire reading, but mostly focused on the main characters. This was an inevitable picture. The script reading article itself was heavily promotional.
『Netflix short film project ‘Nam Sa-chin’, Kang Woo-jin and Hwa-rin two-shot… They look good together?』
So, the article featured Kang Woo-jin and Hwa-rin in large shots. Either solo or as a two-shot. Kang Woo-jin, who saw this, didn’t show it much, but he was deeply moved inside.
‘Wow, man. Looking at it like this, I really do look like the main character. Oh, I’m the main character, right?’
At the time of Hanryang, he was a hidden villain, so there were no articles like this in the first place. In fact, it was safe to say that this was the first time, and in the various articles, Kang Woo-jin had the aura of a leading actor that anyone could see. The added concept helped.

The news of ‘Nam Sa Chin’ was a hot topic from Saturday to Sunday. There was a push from Netflix, but it was also due to the popularity of Kang Woo Jin and Hwa Rin. Of course, Hwa Rin’s fandom is strong, but Woo Jin’s firepower, which is currently being entangled in various issues, was stronger.
Therefore, the public’s expectations had no choice but to follow.
-ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠFinally!!
-Oh, Kang Woojin and Hwarin seem to get along well, don’t they? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ I’m kind of looking forward to itㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Park Dae-ri’s form is crazy
-Honestly… I can’t imagine Kang Woojin’s romantic comedy… It seems like he’d suddenly look at me with a cold gaze after being in love for a long timeㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-↑I think Kang Woo-jin would suit a romantic comedy really well?? Since he’s good at acting, I think he’d be absorbed into anything
-Even so, it’s just a one-act dramaㅋㅋㅋYou can tell at a glance that it smells like a romantic comedy and then it ends.
-Kang Woojin… . The cold-hearted handsome guy material has returned… . ㅅㅂㅅㅂㅅㅂ I want to see you soon
– Are Solkka Hwa-rin and Kang Woo-jin on the same level? This is a really ridiculous casting.
-But I thought Kang Woo-jin would continue to feel like a villain, but the casting drifted a lot. If he succeeds here, it’ll be even better
-Special for this type of work: Skinship

-Somehow, Kang Woo-jin is the type that strangely catches the eye… . They say he’s really cute… . My friend who went to a fan signing told me
-So when are you going to do it? Just give it to me right now.

The collaboration between monster rookie Kang Woo-jin and ‘Elani’ Hwa-rin. When this new combination of ‘Nam Sa-chin’ was first announced, there was a lot of noise, but when the script reading was actually announced, the public became overly anxious.
Naturally, interest from the industry also increased.
one side.
『[Issue Check] Kang Woo-jin’s SNS followers surpass 1 million!』
Recently, the number of Japanese comments on Kang Woo-jin’s SNS, which surpassed 1 million followers, and on numerous YouTube videos featuring him have continued to increase.
-I searched SNS with great difficulty, but Kang Woojin’s YouTube channel is not there. That’s too bad.
From the ones that are already hits to the ones that were recently uploaded, and all the videos that come up when you search for ‘sports day’ or ‘Kang Woo-jin’ in the search bar.
-Kang Woojin! I’m cheering you on from Japan! If you don’t have a YouTube channel, please upload a short video on SNS!
It almost feels like a reversal. Some Koreans tilted their heads at the sudden increase in Japanese comments.
-Why are the Japanese comments suddenly being updated here????
-Is it because the gangsters exploded in Japan??
-Huh? Why are there so many gangsters in Japan?
-Japan Netflix is currently ranked first in Hanryang
The weekend, which had a strange flow, ended and another weekday dawned. Monday the 13th.
-Ugh.
Kang Woo-jin, who left home early in the morning, stood in front of the elevator. He was wearing a hat, as if he was going to go straight to the shop, and he held up his cell phone while waiting for the elevator. What he logged on to was his SNS.
Checking SNS has recently become one of Kang Woo-jin’s daily routines.
“Wow – there are a lot of comments.”
The post he touched was a scene from the script reading of ‘Nam Sa-chin’ uploaded yesterday. It was a two-shot with Hwa-rin taken by Choi Sung-geon. But.
“hmm?”
Woojin, who was happily checking the comments, narrowed his eyebrows slightly. The reason was simple.
-Where is J-bap mixing rice next to Hwarin? Get out of my face.
Because I found some malicious comments. I think maybe they are Hwarin’s biggest fans. Well, it was Woojin’s first time confirming something so openly. However, Kang Woojin reacted very nonchalantly.
At times like this, it was helpful to know that I was a petit bourgeois in real life.
“What are you talking about, you idiots.”
There was no hit at all.
Around the afternoon of the same day.
Kang Woo-jin, who had completed several schedules including several interviews and one meeting, got into a van waiting in the parking lot with Woo-jin and his team.
-Drunk!

Choi Sung-geon was waiting in the passenger seat of the van. He had been away for a while in the morning due to work, so Woo-jin immediately greeted him with a low bow.
“Sir, you’re here.”
Choi Sung-geon waved his hand with a slightly tired smile.
“Oh, I took a taxi. Sorry, sorry. Was everything okay?”
“Yes. There wasn’t any.”
“Okay, Su-hwan, let’s go. We’re a little late.”
“yep!”
Soon, the moving van. At the same time, Choi Sung-geon, who was opening his diary, recited the next schedule.
“As you know, the Hanryang finale party will be over soon. Hye-yeon will be coming too. Did you contact her?”
“yes.”
The finale party of ‘Profile Hanryang’. The entire production team including PD Song Man-woo and writer Park Eun-mi, all the actors including Ryu Jung-min and Hong Hye-yeon, and even the invited reporters. It’s called a finale party, but in reality, it’s no different from a promotional event targeting the sequel.
In particular, since “Hanryang” was a super popular drama, it was an even more important schedule.
However, Kang Woo-jin was somewhat excited. It was a chance to meet the gangsters for the first time in a while. He had grown attached to them, and among them, Kang Woo-jin had fallen for them the earliest.
‘I saw you once last time, Jeongmin. Oh, right. Since it’s the finale party, are the other villains coming too?’
Choi Sung-geon smiled faintly and spoke to Woo-jin, who was slightly curious.
“Oh, Woojin. Did you see Writer Park come to the ‘Boyfriend’ script reading?”
“Ah- yes. I heard you’ll be leaving soon.”
“Yeah, that’s right. Judging from the size, I think he’s thinking of you for his next project. What about you?”
“It’s an honor, but I don’t know.”
“PD Song also called me earlier. He seemed to have something to say to you.”
“Is that so?”
“I feel like I’m going to throw out some bait. Woojin, I’ll take care of it myself. You’re also good at managing big names. It’s amazing how these people get attached to your rookie network.”
Choi Sung-geon then lowered his thumb, which he had been giving.
“And Woojin.”
“Yes, sir.”
Suddenly changed the subject.
“I’ve been busy so it’s been a bit delayed. I’m going to open my YouTube channel sometime this week. The timing is perfect.”
“ah.”
“Now, we live in a world where YouTube can never be ignored, and it’s a market where you can aim for a huge increase in recognition. But you shouldn’t give off too serious an image. It just feels like you’re doing it for fun. Instead, can’t you give off a surprising twist?”
It seemed like something had already been planned.
“How about using your vocals as a theme, with some foreign languages thrown in of course?”
