The King of Dying Smoke Episode 178

Bloody Audition (4)

As mentioned, everything about an audition program is directing.

Of course, there was no way viewers would not know that, so the production process of the program had to ensure topicality that could overwhelm such reactions.

In the case of one country, it was manipulation and bookishing to the point of being behind bars, while in the case of the United States, the only difference was the overwhelming scale through overflowing funds.

Of course, that did not mean that the limitations could be overcome.

-Who on earth came up with the name ? What a terrible sense!

-I heard he was an executive at a Korean broadcasting station. That’s exactly what the actor himself liked… … .

-Oh, it’s a special, it’s a Nabal, the auditions are all the same! Let’s start by guessing who the nominee is!

-At first glance, it will be full of white people again. If you do well, how many Koreans will receive preferential treatment?

-I will send my condolences to innocent friends from all over the world 🙁

It was a kind of original sin.

As the historical term “token black” proves, American broadcasters passed by with a few black people who appropriately incorporated racial discrimination, and even in the 2020s, token Asians have been added to the mix.

The auditions, which ended with a selection, at least pretended to be fair, but if the prize for winning was a program or exclusive contract, it would end up with a white person winning more than 90% of the time.

It was a situation that was clearly visible through statistics, so there was no need for it to be a secret.

Even the presence of Kang Min and the entire promotion(?) of could not dull such sharp reactions.

-That show was great. Kang is definitely a genius.

-Apart from the movie, Richard I himself was great… … .

-Oh, come to your senses, friends! How many times are you going to be fooled by someone who pretends to have a great mediator? I bet you’ve already gone through the list of things to pull out, right?

-Of course.

It was a reaction that had no excuse given that it was all true.

There were some people who were excited about the fact that it was an unprecedented broadcast of actor auditions on a global scale, but most people just snorted and passed it off.

That’s why it made even more sense for the large-scale plan that CBC and CAE were working together to have no one appointed.

No company in the world likes uncertainty.

-It will be obvious when you watch the first broadcast.

-Let’s see how fancy the editing can be.

Such public opinion dominated the entire United States.

So, well,

That was until someone smashed the stage floor with a wrench.

-?

-????

There was silence.

The same thing happened to the Internet thread and the people who wrote it.

The camera wanders around the cracked marble as if embarrassed, then raises its perspective upward.

Seo Bom is an actress who gives a gentle impression with elegantly drooped eye corners and overall soft facial features. So much so that people are saying that she is a fraud based on her face.

And, that’s why the anti-war beauty was enough to make viewers take their breath away.

[If you say one more word, I will kill you.]

[Hi… … !]

The pupil, which had been calm and composed, doubled in size.

The light reflected by the enlarged pupils again gave off an ominous color.

On his eyebrows, on his philtrum, on the bridge of his nose—his uncontrollable facial expression was all over the place.

It was a terrifying force.

It was as if he really wanted to kill me.

The co-star’s mesmerized attitude further enhances this sense of reality.

[…] … .]

[Ah, ah… … iced coffee… … ]

… … No, is this really a broadcasting accident?

Unfortunately, the enlightenment gained by some was quickly lost due to the evil guidance of the judges.

[The only qualification required for this audition is acting.]

[There may be backgrounds or reasons that make it difficult for applicants to get along, but we are all actors. Wouldn’t actors be able to understand each other across borders through acting?]

[I hope it will be a place where actors from completely different places can interact and gain experience, rather than a bloody place where people are wary and rival each other.]

-oh my god

-Oh God… … .

-You just said that was real acting?!

Viewers barely came to their senses as the applicants cheered on screen.

Meanwhile, two actors came up to the stage with their shoulders relaxed.

Thailand’s Rawit Thanat and Vietnam’s Le Huyen Lin stood side by side with their eyes shining.

After that, it was just cheering.

-I’m going crazy! Ty threw a roundhouse kick!

-Vietnam won’t lose either! He’s just grabbing my leg and hitting me!!

-Despite this, the script is being executed perfectly! I can’t believe it!

-Oh my god, are there such great actors outside of the United States?

The small ball that Seo Bom fired ignited fire in the applicants.

Those who were impressed by the realistic acting(?) brought out the strength they had been nursing on stage, and those who were stimulated by the atmosphere(?) that captivated viewers desperately fell into a trance.

Once again, such a stage stimulated the latecomers, and again a miserable stage unfolded where they threw themselves on the stage.

It’s truly an endless vicious cycle.

It was a scene where Penelope Olsen couldn’t help but be dumbfounded and think, ‘What is this?’

But, well, the public’s reaction was different.

-Yes, this is it!!

-You don’t take care of yourself!

-It’s hot!

-Horror!! This is acting!!

-No, I don’t think acting is like this… … .

-What do you need to know! Hong Kong people are using vocative power!

-That guy looks like a real killer?!

When there was a fight scene, there was a fierce fight, and when there was an argument, there was more harsh language than you could imagine.

The scene where they exchanged emotions felt like they were vomiting, and even the beggar’s acting just before jumping off was full of endless despair and power.

Professor Jacob or Professor Kevin would have given an ambiguous opinion, but humans were inherently creatures that could not help but be swayed by human emotions.

Admiration and excitement began to rise like a tidal wave again.

-Damn it, this crazy actor Kang did it again!

-I’m going crazy! Is this a joint project between CBC and CAE? It doesn’t make sense unless the river knocks them all down!

-Then he must have actually beaten it up!

-Director Pian said that. Maybe it wasn’t a joke that Kang was dragging CAE around?

-This is the best audition!

-Yeaaaah!

-I’m ordering ten Richard I anti-tank rocket figures today! No one can stop me!

└Sold out can be prevented

└You can’t buy even one, friend… … .

Again, this reaction trickled down to the home countries of the feted actors and caused a frenzy.

[The news is that our Vietnamese actor, Le Huyen Linh, has been receiving cheers from all over the United States since his first appearance! Coincidentally, my first fateful partner was Thai actor Rawit Thanat. How did they win?]

[Haha, it wasn’t a matter of winning or losing! Regardless of the fact that both passed, applause poured in for actors Huyen Lin and Thanat from all over the United States!]

[okay! This is really good news! Here, I will read a few reactions!]

[The fact that everyone in Thailand as well as in Vietnam is reacting like this is a victory is probably because even the biggest sites in the U.S. are wondering how they could not know about these actors.]

[This is truly amazing. How will our citizens react?]

[Of course, everyone is happy. In addition to everyone’s reaction that it is a victory, voices of gratitude are growing, saying that Korea’s Kang Min is different. Indeed, the admiration of an actor who postponed his debut for seven years to pursue acting itself─]

And in the meantime, Kang Min’s reputation grew needlessly.

In addition to the strange sound that everything was Kang Min’s intention, the nonsense that he carried out his intention without taking a single step back against large broadcasters and agencies when planning the audition, and the crazy claim that even living as an aspiring candidate for 7 years was just a prudent effort for self-discipline(?) Even the sound turned.

Of course, Kangmin was dumbfounded, but—

“No matter what, shouldn’t these nonsense be explained away?”

“… … “I’m sorry, but which part exactly is nonsense?”

“?”

“… … ?”

Well, it was like this.

Anyway, there was nothing I could do at this point. The broadcasting station, and especially the production team, were on the verge of dancing as the topic exploded in countries around the world, along with interest from all over the United States.

No matter what explanation I give about Kangmin’s insight(?), he says, “Don’t tell me, hahaha!” The only response that came back was,

Just like that, a perfect plan, unknown only to the person in charge, came to fruition.

“Whoa.”

At this point, there was no way.

Kangmin let out a long sigh and rented a small waiting room for the third audition.

There were exactly five people gathered inside.

* * *

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … Shall I raise my hand?”

“How old are you?”

Inside the small waiting room, Kangmin held his head as he looked at Seo Bom, who was hesitantly trying to stand with both hands up. He literally had a bone-chilling expression.

Seo Bom looked at him, craning his neck even more.

It was a common sight after an accident that had continued since daycare.

Still, it wasn’t supposed to be a reunion like this… … .

It wasn’t really… … .

“… “Spring.”

“yes.”

“It’s a shame how things turned out, but what were you really going to do? “It was a situation that couldn’t be resolved no matter what you and I did.”

“sorry.”

“No, don’t tell me you’re wrong. Instead, think about your life. The problem was your future, not mine. Really, what on earth did you do that? “When things got bigger, you had no choice but to retire.”

“… … “I thought it would be okay to just break my head and retire.”

“what?”

“I was wrong.”

Seo Bom shrank her neck again.

I felt like I was in tears.

As always, it was a sight of Kangmin becoming a time magician, but there was a slight difference from his days at the orphanage.

The audience was quite rare.

“Spring… … I know I did something wrong… … ? That Seobom… … ?”

Manager Chu Yanji was dumbfounded and could not continue speaking.

“Hi… … Hehe… … ”

The victim actor, who did not know whether it was Judith or Juris, still couldn’t come to her senses.

“… … Um, why am I here? “There’s no reason to be there, right?”

And Penelope Olsen, always the only sane person, couldn’t understand the current situation.

Kangmin chewed like always.

“First of all… … “It was Mr. Juris, right?”

“Well, it’s Judith… … .”

“Are you ignoring me?”

“Anyway, thank you. “Thanks to your consideration for Bom, we were able to easily resolve the situation.”

“yes yes… … .”

“No, that’s not consideration in anyone’s eyes… … “Are you ignoring me?”

Penelope was tired of losing her temper.

Judith appears to have been deeply traumatized as she glances at Seo Bom with a nervous look on her face. Well, if a crazy person is right in front of you with a wrench trying to hit you on the head, it’s worth it.

Seo Bom, who hears the nagging, is also glaring with her head down. Every time I met her bright blue eyes, I could hear Judith hiccupping.

… … For some reason, I sometimes feel like they’re glaring at me too, but I’m probably mistaken.

“Hmm, anyway, the current situation feels like it’s runaway in many ways.”

Kangmin said.

“I want to fix things if possible.”

“I agree with that!”

Penelope couldn’t help but smile for a moment.

‘Of course, it was strange! That was strange to anyone who saw it!!’

For a moment, I thought it might be strange for someone to be strong and have similar opinions, but I tried to forget it.

Whatever it is, there’s no way this bloody audition can continue!

The production team was just bored, this was a matter of common sense!

“So, do you have any thoughts?!”

“of course.”

“also… … ! Are you planning to screw people over again with some evil and terrible plan? “Say it now!”

“… … I think there’s a bit of a misunderstanding, but I’ll move on. “It’s nothing special, just to give a little change of pace to the second audition.”

Kangmin turned his head.

Then, I looked towards Judith.

Judith also looked at Kangmin with a little hope on her face.

‘I… … I was crazy… … .’

There was no way I could withstand my useless greed in the face of the wrench being thrown in.

The person I thought was nothing special was the biggest crazy bitch in the world, and the person I thought I had seduced was even confused about his own name.

Her only wish was to tell everything, apologize, and go home.

“Mr. Judith.”

“yes yes!”

“As you know, the second round of auditions is a group competition. “You can nominate whoever you want.”

“yes!”

“Judith says spring is… … “I would like you to nominate Seo Bom.”

“… … yes?”

Of course it was a vain dream.

While Kang Min was delighted with his perfect plan, the actor’s face turned pale when he made eye contact with the Spanner villain.
