Possessed 10 Million Actors-Chapter 89

"Oh, my….”

I got the Rookie of the Year award and came back to my seat. As I sat down, my legs became weak.

"I'm sure I didn't make any mistakes…?’

I did some imagination training in my head last night, but when I actually stood on the podium, my head went blank. When I came to my senses, I was talking as if I were possessed by something.

I don't think it was bad based on the host's expression and the reaction of other actors….

I'll have to rewatch it later….’

Min Kyungsoo said on my right.

"Hey, Jinseok. "The Rookie Award is definitely yours. Is it there something like that?"

"What?"

When I made a face that I didn't know why, Min Kyungsoo smiled coolly.

"The acceptance speech. "I've never seen a rookie do such a good job with his acceptance speech."

"Oh, it's true that I prepared the acceptance speech in advance. But I was really nervous… Was it okay

"Everything's okay. "Right, Woohyun?"

Park Woohyun nodded and said.

"I know. What was the next award? This year's BDD acting award will be drastically reduced in the type and number of awards. Last year, I was criticized for spraying too much."

At that time, the screen of the large screen on the platform changed with the MC's cheerful voice.

"Now! Next, let's meet the nominees for 2023 BDD Best Supporting Actor and Best Actor!"

——

2023 BDD Acting Grand Prize, ‘Best Supporting Actor' category.

– <The one who's been taken away> Kang Moonchang

[I don't know who you are]. But still… I'll definitely find you and kill you.]

– <The Age of Good Guys>, Park Minwook

[No, I really didn't do anything wrong!]!! [Why are you doing this to me?]

-<Return doctor Kim Cheolsoo>, Choi Yoonsun

[Kim Chulsoo, get out]. [Don't come into my operating room again]

-<In Spring Without Flowers>, Kang Jinseok

[There are some irreversible mistakes in the world]. But there are also mistakes that you have to look back on.]

——

I knew I was nominated for Best Supporting Actor. However, I didn't know that the next best-supporting actor would be the Best Supporting Actor award.

When my face from the introduction of the Rookie of the Year Award came out on the screen once more, the tension rose again.

…Can I go to the bathroom? It won't work.

"Wow, they're giving you a supporting actor award, right after the rookie award? You really got rid of a lot of awards."

Park Woohyun said in a surprised voice.

"I know. I only heard that they were going to cut back on awards, I didn't expect to cut back this drastically.“

Min Kyungsoo looked at the screen as if he was interested. Then he spoke in a subtle voice to my ear.

"But Jinseok is a candidate again"

"Haha… Yes."

When I answered in a dashing voice, Min Kyungsoo rubbed my shoulder.

"It's kind of ambiguous because he's a candidate, but I think you can ride it if you get rid of him."

"Wow, is Jinseok winning two awards in a row?"

While Min Kyungsoo and Park Woohyun were jokingly talking.

"2023 BDD Performance Grand Prize, Best Supporting Actor Award winner -!"

"Yes! Kang Jinseok, congratulations!"

said the MC, holding the cue card aloft.

"Ji, really?"

"Jinseok, are you winning the Rookie Award and the Supporting Actor Award?" "In one role?"

The two spoke in a happy yet surprised voice. He seemed much more surprised than when he won the Rookie of the Year award earlier.

The camera approached me again and began to film me. I can see myself like that on the screen in front of me.

It's a pretty embarrassing, yet serious look.

Actor Kang Jinseok plays Japanese martyr Nakamura in "Spring Without Flowers"….”

"He played an intense villain and at the same time showed his role as a luxury helper to help the main character….”

While the MCs explained the reason for the award, I climbed back to the podium under the guidance of the staff. In the background, I heard the voices of seniors saying, "Kang Jinseok is handsome!" "Kang Jinseok!" and "I look forward to your thoughts!"

"Whoa….”

Breathe out a big sigh to relieve the tension. I walked to the center of the podium, feeling the ball, which was filled with a sigh, slowly returning.

"Congratulations, actor."

"Thank you."

The staff who handed me the Rookie of the Year trophy a while ago said with a big smile. The trophy said "2023 BDD Actor Award for Best Supporting Actor."

I got the trophy and stood in front of the microphone.

Is it because I came up to the stage once when I received the Rookie Award?

The eyes of fans and actors who filled the large venue are a little clearer. That doesn't mean I'm relaxed.

"Hello, I'm Kang Jinseok. How did I get to come up again?"

I opened my mouth slowly.

"I thanked the people who helped me not to give up acting earlier. So this time, I would like to thank Producer Kim Mansoo of BDD Broadcasting Station and Director of Drama Na Jinho for recognizing me."

He spoke long and took a short breath. I lowered my gaze slightly and looked at the seniors of "Dreams of the Sun Rising" and "In Spring Without Flowers" looking at me.

"And I would like to thank the seniors and staff of <Dreams of the Sun Rising> and <In Spring Without Flowers>, who made me shine as a supporting actor. I will do my best to become a more dedicated actor. Thank you."

After I finished speaking, I bowed deeply and greeted 100 degrees like I did when I won the Rookie of the Year award.

Clap, clap, clap!

The applause that filled the awards hall covered me.

***

After the ceremony, on Jan. 4, my contract with Gosiwon ended, and I was organizing my luggage for moving.

"Whoa! Did you organize your important things?"

I thought carefully by putting the Rookie of the Year award and the Best Supporting Actor trophy in the box.

"I can't believe we got two awards…".’

I thought it would be nice to receive it, but when I really got two awards, I was surprised enough to have a brain stop.

There were a lot of articles about me winning two awards.

I was worried that a bad story might come out because I had been nominated for too many awards, but fortunately, it was only a good article as if such worries were unfounded.

Before leaving the room, I looked around the room for the last time.

A bed with a familiar squeak, a peeled-off desk here and there, and a laptop that barely works.

It's a small room where I lived for six years.

It was a place where I couldn't sleep well because of mosquitoes that kept coming in from somewhere in the winter, but when I left, I felt restless.

When I came down to the first floor, Jang Sunho welcomed me.

"Oh, the actor is here. Is that all your luggage is?"

"Yes, I'm sorry it took longer than I thought. I looked at it carefully."

"It's all right. Give me your luggage. I'll even take the car."

Jang Sunho reached out to the box. I smiled slightly and shook my head.

"I'll take it with me. The manager must have been tired from going back and forth since the morning

If I was busy organizing the house in the morning, Jang Sunho was busy moving back and forth between the Gosiwon and the house he would move to in the morning.

Today, I'm moving to an apartment called "Startown" at the entrance of Kukgeon University, not far from where I live now.

Every time I passed by, I wondered, "What kind of person would live in an apartment like that?" and I came to live there.

Well… Although it's not technically my house, it's my company's house.

After about 15 minutes by car, I saw the ‘Startown' apartment.

After a while. After a few doors, I could barely get inside the apartment.

I ran into a resident while passing by, but there was no response as to whether they didn't recognize me or if they were used to seeing celebrities on the day wearing a hat and mask.

I went up to the 54th floor by elevator. Jang Sunho opened the door and told me.

"Here it is. Room 5403."

He followed Jang Sunho into the house.

"Wow….”

It was really spacious. The sunlight came through the large window and it was very bright even though the light was not turned on.

It's the house of a ‘real' celebrity that I saw on TV.

"This is my home…?”

asked in a dashing voice. Jang Sunho smiled slightly and nodded.

"Yes. There is a gym on the first floor, a park where you can take a quick walk, and a swimming pool about five minutes away. There's a department store and a mart. You should gradually find out about that….”

Jang Sunho led me inside the house, blurring his backbiting. Pointing at furniture on one wall, Jang Sunho said.

"This is a gift from me as a celebration of your move-in. I got it as big as possible in hopes that it will be filled up in the future. It's a luxury item in its own right."

Jang Sunho's gift was a large glass trophy display case.

"Thank you. I'll have to work really hard to fill all of this.“

"You'll fill it up in a minute. And there's one more.“

Jang Sunho handed over a flashing car key.

"This is the car that the governor gave me in advance. They gave it to me and asked me to take a lot of pictures. You know how to drive, right

"Uh… Yes."

Driving has left the army in its head. I've done a lot of ballet parking part-time jobs.

"We didn't even shoot the commercial yet. Did they give it to us already?"

"Yes. You can think that they are paying a lot of attention to actor Kang Jinseok.“

After that, Jang Sunho introduced me to the house everywhere. From the system air conditioner that seems like you need to study how to use it for a long time, to the curtain operated with a button.

Among them, my favorite was that there was a separate collection facility on each floor. Thanks to this, there was no need to worry even if it rained on the day of recycling.

"As expected, luxury apartments are different."

After looking around the house for about 10 minutes, Jang Sunho asked me.

"Do you like it?" Actually, the CEO asked me to find a better place, but I had no choice because this is the only house that you can move in right now."

"This house is good enough. Please say thank you to the CEO….”

(Singing "Woo-Woo-Woo-Woo-Woo.").

Jang Sunho's cell phone rang.

"Oh, take it easy."

"Yes, excuse me."

Jang Sunho nodded and answered the phone.

"Oh, yes, director. Hello. Yes? I see. All right. Yes. I'll check next week's schedule and let you know right away. Yes, please go on."

After the call, Jang Sunho looked at me while thinking about something.

"This is the phone call of director Yeo Jaeyoon of <<Unlicensed Counseling>…. "Have you read the script?"

"Yes, I've almost memorized the lines. It's so much fun that I read it like a novel."

"That's a relief."

Jang Sunho spoke in a serious voice as usual, but his tone was a little different. I feel a sense of satisfaction and confidence that I don't know why.

"There were more applicants than expected for this work, so I asked if I could audition next week."

Jang Sunho smiled slightly and said as if he was looking forward to it.

"They have to see Kang Jinseok first before the other actors"
