When I Opened My Eyes I Was a Superstar

“Okay. filming.”

Manager Oh Baek-ho answered once again.

At that time, director Jean-Luc, who had finished talking with the staff, approached Dowook and the KK members.

“oh! Okay! “I didn’t expect to see the group KK here.”

Daniel, who was next to Dowook, volunteered to interpret. In response to Daniel’s interpretation, Manager Oh Baek-ho greeted Director Jean-Luc in all the English he could speak and shook hands.

“Wow… I really didn’t know I could come here! I already feel thrilled just thinking about it. Thank you very much for inviting us. Director Jean-Luc!”

Kim Won came forward and spoke on behalf of the members.

Director Jean-Luc looked at Kim Won and said that he was glad if that was the case. The members were standing behind with flushed expressions, looking at Director Jean-Luc.

The members had a bewildered look on their faces as they glanced at the studio, which was bigger than any studio they had ever been to.

In particular, Taehyung Park looked like he was about to cry.

He was always in the star’s position, but here, Park Taehyung was in the fan’s position.

Do-wook still had an expression on his face that he couldn’t laugh or cry because he didn’t know what the situation was.

Director Jean-Luc, who knew the inside story, raised the corner of his mouth and said.

“Do-wook, aren’t you glad that the members are here? “Your expression looks strange?”

“ah! “That’s not it!”

The members’ attention was also focused on Dowook.

Dowook was very embarrassed and waved his hands.

“Because it was so sudden. “I haven’t even been able to say hello properly yet… and the filming…”

“Haha! I’m kidding too. Well, it looks like everyone arrived safely, so I’ll just go. See you all tomorrow! “Thank you for your hard work today, Mr. Kang.”

Director Jean-Luc saw Do-wook looking embarrassed and smiled playfully as he greeted him.

“yes! see you tommorow!”

The members, including Kim Won, bowed their heads and greeted Director Jean-Luc. Do-wook also said hello to the director first.

Ahn Hyeong-seo, who continued to look at Do-wook in confusion, opened his mouth after Director Jean-Luc left.

“Do-wook is really surprised by such a surprise visit!”

“I know. “It’s not like you’re always embarrassed because you’re really not happy.”

When Do-wook responded to Jeong Yoon-gi’s words by asking if that could be possible, Kim Won giggled and responded.

“Hehe. “We came all the way from Korea as top secrets to see how embarrassed you were.”

“Somehow… suddenly no one said anything since yesterday, so I thought everyone was busy.”

Dowook was puzzled because no messages were posted in the KK group room where conversations took place several times a day.

“Because they were all on the plane!”

Do-wook chuckled at Seok Ji-hoon’s clear answer.

“What on earth is filming…”

“We’re all going to appear on Heroes under the name of KK, aren’t we?”

“K-K…?”

“It will be KK without Kang Do-wook. “We decided to film tomorrow’s performance outdoors.”

Do-wook’s eyes, who seemed like they couldn’t be more surprised by Jeong Yoon-gi’s words, grew bigger and bigger.

Daniel, who was in charge of marketing in the United States for the members’ surprise visit, was also hiding this fact from Dowook.

“Mr. Do-wook, do you know that in that scenario, there is a scene where a city electronic display board shows that North Korea has joined hands with its enemy, Alpharon?”

“yes. i know.”

“If you look at that scene, the peaceful images of New Yorkers appear first, and then when the news comes out, Billion Man comes out of the tallest building and takes off through the sky, right?”

“yes. no way……?”

“Among those peaceful scenes, you will also pass by a scene of a concert in Central Park.”

“Then, to that concert…!”

“that’s right. I think the director originally thought it would be something like a quartet orchestra performance, but it changed to include KK appearing in that performance.”

As Daniel continued his explanation, proud smiles appeared on the faces of the KK members.

Kim Won seemed to puff out his chest and then stick it out, which made his chest look full.

Do-wook checked the facts by looking at the members’ faces, then at Daniel.

All of the KK members were to make special appearances on Heroes.

“Uh…”

“The music director wanted to add powerful rock or pop music to the scene where Billion Man is flying through the sky… I think ‘Continue’ was also one of the candidate songs. ”

‘Continue’ was definitely a powerful song that suited the scene.

Nevertheless, it was surprising that ‘Continue’ was among the nominated songs.

‘Continue’ was the first of KK’s songs to appear on the Billboard and was a song that greatly contributed to KK becoming a world-class group.

At the time, I was thrilled just to enter the Billboard chart, but now the song ‘Continue’ has become so famous that it can be mentioned everywhere.

“In the meantime, Do-wook’s appearance was confirmed, and director Jean-Luc’s idea was to include a scene where KK performs himself. In fact, KK’s performance in Central Park was very sensational… In the movie, it was a scene where citizens were enjoying the performance of superstar KK, just like in real life.”

Dowook, who listened to Daniel’s explanation, nodded.

In the performance scene, I could actually imagine the song ‘Continue’ getting louder and Billion Man flying in the sky.

It was sure to be a cool scene.

Even from the outside of the movie, it seemed quite plausible. It was a win-win opportunity that could be used for promotions for both the ‘Heroes 2’ production team and KK.

There was no disagreement that KK had established herself as a global star in name and reality, but her special appearance in ‘Heroes 2’ would put a stamp on that name.

Dowook has already received unprecedented star treatment in Korea just by appearing in ‘Heroes 2’.

He was now a ‘global star’ rather than a ‘Korean star’.

However, Dowook was not the only one in that position.

Just as there was a group called K-K until Do-wook came to this place, all of the K-K members were with Do-wook.

It was a good thing for the entire group called K.K. Do-wook felt more overwhelmed than when he received an offer to star in a movie.

“Oh my… it was so good. It’s such good news without giving away such a big deal… wow… it’s so good. “Everyone appears in one movie… and Heroes…”

When Do-wook found out the whole story, he rambled in an uncharacteristically overflowing sense of joy. The members also felt proud of Dowook being truly happy.

In addition to the joy that came from the fact that KK appeared in ‘Heroes 2’ and that the song was included, Dowook was only then able to truly feel the joy of meeting the members for the first time in a long time.

The first filming was today, but Dowook had already been in the United States three weeks ago to prepare for filming.

Daniel became a good friend, and the film company General also supported Do-wook, both financially and spiritually, to ensure that the lead actor had no shortage in his life.

Nevertheless, Do-wook had no choice but to feel lonely as living alone in the United States was different from the life he had lived with the members before.

In such a situation, my joy was doubled when I met members who had now left their colleagues and become friends and family.

“They say filming is tomorrow. First of all, we came right after getting off the plane and I’m really hungry, so let’s talk more as we go. Let’s go eat a burger quickly! Hamburger!”

“Do-wook probably ate a hamburger. “A Korean restaurant is better.”

“is it? Dowook, what do you want to eat? “I’m so hungry, everything is fine.”

Ahn Hyeong-seo and Jeong Yoon-gi said. As soon as the members gathered together, a noisy atmosphere was created, which put Dowook’s mind at ease.

“I went to a Korean restaurant yesterday too and the hamburger was okay. “But aren’t you tired?”

“That’s not prabrum!” I slept a lot on the plane. Yoongi hyung also snored.”

“Why did you say I was snoring?”

“Hyung… I was glad it was a real business class. If you think the fans heard it….”

Jung Yoon-gi just lost his appetite as if he had nothing more to say in response to Kim Won’s point and the youngest member’s comment.

Manager Oh Baek-ho, who was watching, shook his head and led everyone.

“Then let’s go to the hamburger restaurant. “Daniel, may I ask you to guide me?”

“Of course.”

Daniel answered willingly.

So Do-wook and the members all left the filming site for the hamburger restaurant together.

“It’s a shame I couldn’t see Dowook filming.”

“I know. Because the time is not right. “When are you filming again?”

Even as they left, the members continued the conversations they had been unable to have since they had been apart. Dowook’s face was very bright as he talked with the members.

***

[All KK members decided to make a special appearance in ‘Heroes 2’!]

[Another performance at KK Central Park, this time filming ‘Heroes 2’?]

[Kang Do-wook in progress filming ‘Heroes 2’… KK Cameo appearance]

[It’s featured in KK’s song ‘Heroes 2’! Popularity continues..]

.

.

.

[The world’s most popular boy band, KK, will appear in ‘Heroes 2’?!]

The next day, numerous articles poured in in Korea along with the filming in Central Park. It wasn’t just Korea. All over the world, including China and Japan. Articles were published everywhere there were KK fans.

There were as many articles as when Dowook was first cast.

The promotional effect initially aimed for was effectively achieved by both parties.

Many articles have also appeared in the US and Europe, where it can be said that there are still more fans of ‘Heroes’ than fans of KK.

Although the article was published out of anticipation for ‘Heroes 2’, many fans were also happy to hear that they could briefly see KK’s performance in the movie as something different and fun.

“There was also an article in the culture section of the New York Times. I came in person to take pictures of the scene today. “Have you seen it?”

“yes. “I just checked the article.”

Dowook smiled happily as he responded to Daniel’s words.

Today’s filming for the KK members was able to be completed quickly after a total of two filming sessions, as all they had to do was perform on stage as usual.

Since it wasn’t a live stage anyway, the members divided Do-wook’s empty seat into N parts and performed the choreography flawlessly.

Watching the members perform below the stage was a very unfamiliar feeling, but Dowook happily cheered on the members at the filming site.

“Arrived.”

Daniel said as he stopped the car.

After having a simple dinner with the members who had finished filming, Dowook had just arrived at the location of the party that Hulbert had invited yesterday.

It was clear that if we made friends in advance at the party, it would be helpful on the next filming site, which involves a lot of joint action scenes.

“Thank you, Daniel.”

“Please contact me after you finish. “I’ll come pick you up.”

“No, I guess I can just call a taxi…”

“There are a lot more things to be careful about in the United States than in Korea, and this is my job, so I hope you don’t feel too burdened.”

“All right. “Then I’ll contact you when I get back home.”

“yes. “If anything happens in the meantime, please contact me at any time.”

Dowook nodded.

It was true that, except for Hulbert, there would be a gathering of actors that I had never seen before, and I had never participated in a gathering like this in the United States before, so I was nervous.

However, because it was truly a ‘private’ party held by the actors appearing in Heroes, it was difficult to have a separate manager.

“Well, if it’s Mr. Dowook, I don’t think you need to worry too much. Hulbert, I liked it too… … . “Wouldn’t the level of difficulty be a little lower for other actors?”

“haha. yes.”

Dowook also agreed with Daniel. After all, they were fellow actors appearing in the same movie.

When Dowook got out of the car while thinking, a familiar face had just arrived in front of Hulbert’s Hampton villa where the party was being held.
