Misunderstanding (2)
I can’t hear anything. My senses also became dull. It felt like my body was just floating in the air. It was about the current Kang Woo-jin.
“······”
What should I say, everything was ambiguous to him at the moment. Conscious but hazy. It was unclear whether he was lying down or standing. He was also vague about the temperature around him. Are your eyes closed? No, is it floating? what? What am I doing now?
However, just one thing.
‘relaxing.’
The ambiguous Kang Woo-jin was very comfortable right now. She wanted to stay like this for the rest of her life. Then.
‘ah.’
Kang Woo-jin suddenly came to his senses. No, this wasn’t arbitrary. It was by someone else’s will. Something unknown woke Kang Woo-jin. It was that kind of feeling.
Within.
“······eww.”
Kang Woo-jin, who was moaning softly, slowly opened his eyes. He probably had his eyes closed. For about a few seconds like that. He barely came to his senses and was dazed for a moment.
The reason was simple.
“Here… where?”
Because I had no idea where I was right now. No, what kind of space is this? Woojin opened her eyes, but it was as if she had closed them.
Because it was dark in all directions.
It feels like I’m trapped in a secret room without any light. An atmosphere where there would be nothing strange even if you developed claustrophobia.
Thanks to this, Kang Woo-jin stood up and shouted.
“hey!! Daeyoung Kim!!”
“······”
But I can’t hear anything.
“hey!! hey!!!”
I shouted again, but it was still quiet. There isn’t even an echo. What on earth is this place? It was endlessly black and I couldn’t even tell how wide it was. It felt like a subspace with no limits.
Anyway, this is the time.
“Hey, hey! Daeyoung Kim! “Miss, what are you doing here?”
An enormous sense of anxiety and fear surrounded Kang Woo-jin. Then Woojin recalled a memory from before here.
“Obviously, I clicked on some strange square.”
A square shaped like a swirl of black and gray. Woojin pressed the thing floating in the air next to the script with his index finger.
“···What? Is it a movie? “You were sucked in here??!”
Soon, Kang Woo-jin covered his short hair. Because the accident stopped. No matter how you look at it, this is reality. The dream couldn’t have been this vivid.
What on earth is this subspace?
Whatever it was, the biggest task now was escaping rather than existing here.
At this time.
“Huh?”
Woojin turned around and suddenly stopped. Because even though everything was black, I could see a white square. The distance is about three steps. Was it just now? I don’t know. But I had to check quickly.
Soon, Kang Woo-jin quickly moved towards the white square.
-Sigh.
I checked the white color up close. Just the size of A4 paper. The location is about Woojin’s chest. It wasn’t strange to say that it was floating. The funny thing here is.
“letter?”
There are white letters on a white square.
-[1/page script (title: unknown), grade F (unable to judge)]
-[*The level of completion is very low. Damaged script or screenplay. 100% reading is impossible. (approximately 10% feasible)]
At the same time, Kang Woo-jin frowned.
“What is this? Damaged script? scenario?”
The white letters were all bullshit. That too for a while. Woojin immediately remembered something when he saw the words ‘side script.’
“······Ah, that page script.”
It was a several-page script that I received from a female broadcasting staff member. If you think about it, right after she got that script, she was sucked into this subspace or something. then.
“no way. “Is this the square script?”
In a way, everything was correct. Anyway, Kang Woo-jin slowly raised his hand and picked up the white square. But it doesn’t move.
It was then.
-Suuuuu.
Suddenly, letters that were not there before were listed under the white square.
-[You have selected 1/page script (title: unknown).]
-[List people who can lead (experience).]
-[A: Scared man, B: Stranger]
What is this again? At this point, Kang Woo-jin was overflowing with frustration and anxiety. He had to do something ASAP.
“Oh shit, I don’t know.”
He touched any of the letters that appeared. It was ‘A: a scared man’, and suddenly a woman’s voice echoed throughout subspace.
[“Preparing to read ‘A: A Frightened Man’…”]
The tone is constant and static. It was almost like a robot. Who cares? It was the first human voice I heard here. Woojin shouted desperately.
“hey! who are you?! “There’s someone here!!”
But the woman’s voice gave a strange answer.
[“······Ready. Damaged script or screenplay. The implementation level is about 10%. Let’s start reading.”]
Immediately afterwards, a large gray creature swallowed Kang Woo-jin.
cold. It was strange. Clearly, the temperature was ambiguous until just before. But Kang Woo-jin was feeling cold right now. Is it outside? Woojin lowered his head. uh?
“······!!”
changed. The padding she had been wearing was all gone and she was wearing a brown windbreaker. He felt a moment of strangeness and lifted his head again.
My vision also changed a little.
It was definitely still completely dark. However, although it is faint, the silhouette is visible. tree? Are those all trees? And what about fallen leaves that you step on around your feet?
So is this in the mountains?
I wanted to speak out, but it didn’t work out. A feeling of body rejection. At the same time, I felt sounds and sensations that were not there before.
-Sah.
The wind blowing softly and the noise made by the wind hitting the tree branches. The atmosphere and feeling alone were enough to make my whole body tremble slightly.
and.
‘escape. ‘You have to run away.’
Kang Woo-jin, whose eyes had become accustomed to the darkness, was currently experiencing some emotions and feelings. Move. Move her feet.
Run without stopping, run away.
Soon, Woojin started running. I didn’t know the direction. I just started jumping up and up. I ignored the rapidly rising breath. I ignored the silhouette of a tree branch scratching my cheek.
I just ran.
“Huh! “Wow!”
why? Why am I running now? I don’t know. I don’t know, but Woojin didn’t stop his urgent steps. Because I didn’t think that would work. My heart is pounding faster and faster.
Yes, I am being chased. I am being chased now.
-Sabag! Sabak!
Woojin continued to look back while trampling on fallen leaves like crazy. Fortunately, the scenery behind was the same. In the mountains shrouded in darkness.
It was at this time.
“hey.”
As Woojin turned around, he suddenly heard a low male voice next to him.
“It’s annoying, stop running.”
-grasp!
Before Kang Woo-jin could realize anything, his leg got caught and he fell to the floor. It hurt. It was fucking painful. No, why does it hurt? This pain was real. The sting of blood flowing down my cheek as it swept across the floor was also real.
There.
“I’m hungry because of you.”
A man’s voice heard from behind his back. No, the monster was also real. All Kang Woo-jin could do here was struggle. It has to be that way. It was my first time experiencing something like this.
Who has ever had the experience of being suddenly chased by a strange man?
Die. For some reason, I feel like I’m going to die. Woojin desperately tried to crawl, but it wasn’t possible. Because the stranger behind him pressed Woojin with his foot.
“Ugh! Hehehe-”
Nevertheless, Woojin’s struggles did not stop. I crawled and crawled. Even though I was still in place, I kept crawling. The dirt on the floor is constantly rushing into my nostrils. On the contrary, water was flowing out of the eyes and nose.
I die, I die, I want to live.
Feelings of desperation, hands frantically scraping the leaves and dirt on the floor, the feeling of pressure on the back, runny nose and tears, rough breathing.
Everything was real.
and.
“Yes, I decided. “I’m going to go down and eat pizza.”
The muttering monster definitely exists as well. At this time, Woojin, who was lying face down, flipped over. That’s what the gunman did. Thanks to this, Kang Woo-jin, whose entire body was shaking, saw a strange man in his field of vision.
“······?”
There is no face. To be precise, it has a face, but it is black. A black round one hung on the neck. However, the silhouette of the gunman’s torso was clearly visible. Although he was vague.
This moment.
-Hook!!
Something got stuck in the side of Kang Woo-jin’s stomach, which was sprawled out.
“Aaaah!!!”
There is no way to know what is stuck. Because it hurt like hell. Pain as if all five organs and six organs were cut off at once. A pain that cannot be expressed in words.
Rattling.
Woojin’s whole body trembled without even realizing it. His legs were shaking and his arms and face were convulsing. What kind of feeling is this? Fuck, it really hurts so much. It was a clear reality.
Let’s pray, yes, let’s pray. Please pray for my life.
Woojin held his trembling hands together and prayed. He prayed to his black face that his hands would become his feet. I will do anything, so please save me. He’s a monster with no facial expressions, but he’s still human, right?
The monster laughed.
Even though his face was only black, he smiled. Perhaps it was because of the hope in his delusion, but it seemed that way in Woojin’s eyes. So Kang Woo-jin also forced a smile, and it was after this that something hit his body again.
-Hook!!!
“Ouch!! Argh!!”
It was at this time.
[“The reading of ‘A: The Frightened Man’ is ending.”]
A robotic female voice rang out.
How long has it been?
Someone’s voice could faintly be heard in Dazed Kang Woo-jin’s ears.
“······yo. this! hey!!”
At the same time, Kang Woo-jin, who had the cell phone to his ear, slowly raised his head. I saw three people sitting at a straight desk. A man in his 30s, a man in his 50s with a beard, and a pretty woman. The person who just called Woojin seemed like a man in his 30s.
soon.
‘Uh, this is the same place as before. Ah, you’re back.’
Kang Woo-jin slowly lowered the cell phone from his ear. However, there is something strange about Woojin’s expression. Feeling a little drunk. Woojin, who had that kind of face, checked her cell phone screen. About a minute had passed. It was strange, it must have been about 30 minutes just in the mountain just before.
Whatever it is.
“······”
Kang Woo-jin seemed to be careless and didn’t seem to care much. Brain function is slow. It was at this time.
“Hey, aren’t you going to do it? “Are you still unable to contact me, Daeyoung Kim?”
A man in his 30s sitting at a straight desk in front asked Kang Woo-jin, waving a page script. Woojin looked at him quietly.
‘······Side script. Ah, yes, I already experienced that. Are you asking me to show you?’
I slowly got up from the chair.
-Sigh.
A man in his 30s was slightly surprised.
“oh? Do you want to do it? Hey, you and your friend have a strong friendship, right?”
Next, Kang Woo-jin stood in front of the three people sitting at a desk. The distance is roughly two steps. Why? The reason was unclear. Right now, Woojin just felt like he had to show something.
Everything that happened in an unknown place just before.
Even for Kang Woo-jin, who takes his stance slowly.
-Sigh.
Everything was still vivid. Because I experienced it firsthand.
About 10 minutes later.
Kang Woo-jin, who showed everything contained in the script, was lying on the floor. Both hands pointed towards the sky. why? Because I was begging for it just now.
Then.
“ah.”
His mind, which had been constantly wandering about something, became clear. In fact, his consciousness remained clear. However, once what was visible was over, did you feel that your brain, which had been a bit slow, became faster?
anyway.
-Sure.
The first thing Kang Woo-jin felt as he slowly lowered his raised arms was.
‘Oh, shit. ‘What did I just do?’
A huge rush of shame.
Next.
‘Ha-what on earth happened so far? ‘Do I have a mental problem?’
It was an understanding of the situation. Something was clearly happening, but it also seemed like it wasn’t. It was all mixed up and tangled. dizzy. Whatever it was, even if he was possessed by a ghost, everyone could see Woojin just now.
Whether it was experience or something else, he was very passionate.
Soon, Kang Woo-jin, who was lying down, cleared his throat and woke up. Big. Woojin came to one conclusion here.
‘Pretend it’s not true. naturally. First of all, after you run away.’
I was very embarrassed and ashamed, but I tried to act calm. Recite the spell.
‘I am confident. I’m cool. Kang Woo-jin, you don’t feel embarrassed at all right now.’
Let’s act as strong as possible.
At this time.
“······You know.”
A woman’s voice penetrated. She was the prettiest of the three people sitting at the straight desk. No, wait a minute. Who is this woman?
‘omg? crazy. Hong Hyeyeon?!’
Long straight hair and clear skin. Right now, sitting in front of Woojin was Hong Hye-yeon, a self-proclaimed top actress. Why didn’t I recognize it earlier? Was it because it was too unfamiliar? It’s an angel. If angels were real, it would definitely be like that. Maybe it was because it didn’t look like a human.
Thanks to Woojin.
‘Wow, I’m really amazed. and-‘
I stopped popping my pants and was captivated by Hong Hye-yeon, who was sitting two steps in front of me. It was at this point that a question was asked that made her narrow her brows.
“Which university did you major in performance? muniment? Handong?”
What are you talking about? Anyway, Woojin wanted to shout out to her right away that he was her fan. However, despite the shame she felt just before, she had to maintain a strong demeanor.
That will neutralize this crazy shame a little bit, right?
Next, Woojin moved his hand where he had stopped, and he calmed his voice while leisurely dusting off his pants. As low and heavy as possible. Let’s put some bravado into it.
Then, a low tone that surprised even Woojin came out.
“no. I just graduated from the design department at a university in the Gyeonggi-do area. Good job, design.”
crazy. Why did you say ‘good job, design’ at the end? Although Woojin noticed his mistake, his face became even more determined. The funny thing is.
“Design… department?”
“······?”
All three people sitting in front, including top actress Hong Hye-yeon, had their faces crumpled. It’s not clear why, but I was definitely surprised anyway.
“Well, then where did you learn acting?”
Learning is a piece of cake. It was a field he had no interest in his entire life, but Woojin just looked around. Because I wanted to run away quickly.
“I taught myself. “Just a little while on the weekend.”
“······what?”
That amplified Woojin’s bravado. Although I didn’t know much about it.
soon.
“then.”
A bearded man in his 50s, sitting in the center of a straight desk, opened his eyes wide and added a question.
“What did you just do? It must have been your first time doing it. But what did you do after looking at the page script for a moment?”
What did you just do? Shh. What I’m saying is don’t emphasize my shame. Woojin, who was slowly finding an angle to run away, took a look behind him and then answered. Of course, this time too I had to be strong and solemn.
“It wasn’t that difficult.”
After finishing answering, Woojin greeted the three people in front of him in a cursory manner.
“then.”
Although I was anxious, I walked to the back door as calmly as possible. While I keep reciting “Don’t call me” to myself. Soon, Kang Woo-jin spits out similar words of caution to the staff standing in front of the door.
“I’m sorry, but please don’t broadcast what I just did. “If you use it, I will sue you.”
It was also a bluff. Because I wanted to escape this hell quickly. Anyway, fortunately, Kang Woo-jin was able to leave the room he was in without any trouble.
There were still participants waiting in front.
“······”
As soon as Woojin, who had an expressionless face, passed them, he started walking faster. It was almost like light jogging.
-Sigh.
At a considerable distance, he covered his face with both hands and sighed deeply.
“H-fuck it. “What a shame.”
Meanwhile, in the room that Kang Woo-jin just came out of.
“······Producer. Did he just say it wasn’t that difficult? “After showing me that level of acting??”
Top actress Hong Hye-yeon opened her mouth excessively. Of course, her excitement was widespread here, and Hong Hye-yeon’s question was caught by a bearded man in his 50s sitting in the center.
“Design department? Are you good at design? “What an absurd guy.”
“love of learning? lie! “I learned it without fail, that thing!”
“Even if I learned it. Even so. You don’t even major in acting and your main job is design. Do you think you can easily learn how to act and show it off? “I’ve been directing for 20 years, so I think it’s impossible.”
“······that.”
“Composure and confidence when answering. That’s real. It was really easy. Even after looking at just one minute of the script, I was able to get some decent acting out of it. “This is the first time I’ve seen someone who can’t guess what the past was like.”
Soon, a man in his 50s with a beard looked towards the door through which Kang Woo-jin left and smiled.
“A special kind of genius. “Sometimes a monster like that appears.”
The snowball of misunderstanding began to roll.
