When I Opened My Eyes I Was a Superstar

Blockbuster (4)

He was ‘Soldier America’.

He was one of the heroes playing a central role in ‘Heroes’ along with Billion Man.

The actor playing Soldier America, a former American soldier turned into a hero, was Chris Moore.

It seems that Chris Moore was also invited to Hulbert’s party today.

Chris Moore had the face of a typical American handsome man, with blonde hair, blue eyes, a high nose and cool mouth. It was a face that could be cast as a hero representing America.

In addition, he had a sturdy body that looked as if his muscles were about to burst, just like I saw in the movies. It seemed like he had grown his muscles more than usual for filming.

Dowook also boasted a strong body, standing over 180 centimeters tall, but there was an inevitable difference in size. Standing next to Moore, Dowook felt relatively small.

So Do-wook felt more like meeting ‘Soldier America’ in ‘Heroes’ than with Hulbert.

“Chris Moore?”

At Dowook’s call, Moore frowned and looked down at Dowook.

Dowook looked behind Moore and was able to quickly realize why Moore was nervous.

‘As expected, a Hollywood star….’

Just by looking at it, there were about two or three paparazzi following Chris Moore.

Although Do-wook lived a relatively private life in the United States compared to Korea, Do-wook also understood Moore’s frustration.

In Korea, Do-wook also had a history of being troubled by sasaeng fans.

“My name is Kang Do-wook… I think it would be best to go in and say hello.”

“……ah! Dowook! Ah, that’s right.”

Moore, who seemed to have belatedly realized who Do-wook was, made a happy face for a moment, then hardened and answered.

Moore also thought it would be better to go in and say hello first, as Dowook said.

It was an encounter that wouldn’t have been a problem even if the paparazzi took pictures, but in any case, being photographed in an extremely private space other than a filming location was unpleasant.

The two hurriedly rang the bell of Hulbert’s villa.

Soon after confirming the identity of the two people, the door was opened from the inside.

Only after entering the villa did Chris Moore completely relax his expression and speak to Dowook.

“I heard the story from Hulbert! nice to meet you! I almost made a mistake on our first meeting. Haha… I’m so annoyed because you’ve been following me around all day!”

In the drama, Chris Moore was said to be too cautious and frustrating, but in reality he seemed to be quite talkative and had a light-hearted vibe.

Even if they didn’t say much, it was enough to understand just their facial expressions and tone of voice.

Do-wook’s English steadily improved while working overseas, and by the time he was preparing for the movie, it was almost at the same level as Kim Won.

Thanks to this, it was easy to see that the words and intonation Chris used were light and not very formal.

Since Hulbert’s personality was completely ‘Billion Man’ itself, Dowook was even surprised by the difference in Chris Moore’s personality.

“I guess it would be worth it if it lasted all day. You followed me all the way to the Hamptons…”

“So. Terrible things. “Actually, there’s a girl I’ve been hanging out with lately, and she must’ve smelled her and runs towards me… I’m so sick of it.”

As I listened to Chris Moore getting angry about the paparazzi as if he was truly fed up, I soon found myself in front of the main villa building.

The front door of the main building was wide open.

Dowook checked the time just before entering the front door and sent a message to the KK members’ group room.

The members went to see a performance to enjoy a night out in New York among themselves. He also said he would go for a drink together when it was over. Dowook left a message telling the members not to wait for him at the dorm as he would be late.

The room was noisy, as if the party had already started. The DJ who is said to be the most famous in New York clubs these days was DJing in the center.

Those invited to the party were scattered here and there, chatting and sipping champagne served by separately hired waiters.

“Has it really started already?”

“What a long time!”

“It’s been a while since I saw you at the filming set the other day.”

“It’s a greeting.”

It was the ‘Shark’ actor who greeted Moore.

It seemed certain that all the major heroes of ‘Heroes’ were invited.

But it wasn’t just heroes who were invited. Beautiful women wearing quite revealing dresses were laughing and mingling with the actors here and there.

Next to the ‘Shark’ actor, a woman with soft ash-colored hair was sitting with her legs crossed in a seductive pose, subtly stroking his thigh.

When Do-wook said it was a party at a villa, what Do-wook had in mind was a more calm atmosphere. It was a party with wine rather than champagne and waltzes rather than DJs.

It was hard to imagine that a party hosted by Hulbert would be this crazy.

‘I don’t think it’s a good place to talk to actors…’

Do-wook’s brow furrowed a little.

Moore didn’t care and grabbed Dowook’s arm.

“Here, Dowook! I met you in front of here. Aren’t you a friend who is somehow curious? Is this what oriental beauty is like? “I think I know why Martin casted him directly on Real Man.”

Moore introduced Dowook in a chatty manner. I couldn’t get used to the sight of America’s standard handsome man being talkative.

Only then did the Shark actor break away from the woman and formally offer to shake her hand.

“Oh… nice to meet you. “Jake.”

“Ah, nice to meet you.”

At that moment, Hulbert was coming down the stairs on the second floor. Hulbert, dressed comfortably, held a bottle of strong liquor in his hand.

“Hulbert… can almost be said to be alcoholic. If you drink together, you won’t survive. “Just thinking about drinking together makes me want to throw up.”

Moore spoke, but Dowook had already caught Hulbert’s eye.

Hulbert called Dowook to the bar and asked him to have a drink with him. Moore and Jake ran away, saying they didn’t want to mess with Hulbert.

It was hard to tell whether he hated drinking with Hulbert or wanted to enjoy his time with the invited beauties.

Anyway, Dowook sat down with Hulbert and drank together.

Dowook did not enjoy drinking. However, it was only for self-management, and Do-wook’s body was quite resistant to alcohol.

If it was fortunate, it was fortunate.

Contrary to concerns, Hulbert did not force Dowook to drink.

Instead, it seemed like all that was needed was for Dowook to set the mood appropriately.

Hulbert began by asking Do-wook how his acting suddenly improved during the first filming, and also asked about K.K.

I couldn’t tell if it was because he had seen ‘Blue Whale’, which was screened at Cannes, or because he was curious about the fact that he was from a world-renowned boy band, but in any case, Hulbert was quite interested in Do-wook.

Thanks to this, Dowook was able to talk a lot with Hulbert.

Compared to Do-wook’s limited acting experience, Hulbert was an experienced actor who worked in Hollywood for over ten years and worked his way up from the bottom.

There was ‘that Hollywood’. It was a level of competition that was on a different level from Korea. Hulbert had to go through all kinds of hardships to become the ‘Billion Man’.

“When I really wanted to give up, an opportunity came. There was a lot of opposition from people around me who thought that if I continued like this, I would become a beggar on the street… but my pride wouldn’t allow me to stop there. Well, you can call it stubbornness… Anyway, stubbornness won.”

Do-wook nodded deeply while listening to Hulbert’s words.

Do-wook agreed, even though the opportunity came when he had already given up.

‘Once upon a time… truly, once in a while a chance… comes.’

Through the conversation, Dowook was able to learn a lot from Hulbert.

If ‘Heroes 2’ is released like this and there are no major problems, Do-wook will have the opportunity to become an actor not only in Korea but also in Hollywood.

Dowook was able to hear about the details of not only his life as an actor in Hollywood but also life as a star in the United States that he would not know unless he had experienced it.

‘As expected, it was good that I came. I was able to learn a lot about the atmosphere of this place for my future activities. I think it would be difficult to get close to the actors other than Hulbert…but it would be enough to match the acting skills on set.’

But it didn’t end there.

Even in a noisy atmosphere, actors often came to say hello to the host, Hulbert, and each time, Hulbert properly introduced Dowook even in a drunken pronunciation.

Thanks to this, Do-wook was able to have quite a variety of conversations with an actor who has a very good reputation in Hollywood as a talented actor, even though he is a villain rather than a hero in ‘Heroes 2’.

He didn’t know Do-wook at all, but after talking to him a few words, he said, ‘That’s not normal.’ made an evaluation.

Hearing that, Hulbert got drunk and laughed in a voice twice as loud as his usual voice.

“okay! Not usually. there is. Something. “This isn’t just the energy you feel because you have black eyes.”

“I have black eyes too.”

“Rather than black… aren’t you cloudy?”

“Well, that’s rude!”

The two were quite young and it was time to give a generous evaluation of Do-wook, who had just arrived in Hollywood.

Chris Moore, who seemed even more drunk than Hulbert, approached.

His face was bright red and his eyes were open. Moore said, lifting Dowook up from where he was sitting.

“Why is my young and handsome friend hanging out with these old guys? Let’s have fun!”

Dowook was taken aback by those words, but Hulbert reacted as if he was not surprised. Hulbert frowned and waved his hands. Since it was too much of a hassle to deal with him, he told me to take Do-wook with me.

Dowook was dragged by Moore to the living room sofa.

Unlike the bar table area, which was quiet, the place was crowded with people. On the sofa, a supporting actor whose face Do-wook knew was sharing a deep kiss with a blonde beauty.

“Okay, we’re going to play poker. How about a game together? Hey Eric! “Go do the rest in the guest room upstairs!”

Even though he was drunk and red-faced, Moore said something quite sane to his supporting actor.

Chris Moore also seemed to like Dowook. There was no reason for me to refuse when he asked me to play poker to get to know him.

However, Do-wook found it difficult to erase his uneasy feeling, perhaps because of the lewd energy circulating in the parlor or because of Moore’s drunken face.

“Do you think the alcohol is strong? Even after drinking with Hulbert, I still feel fine. First, have another drink of this.”

As Do-wook sat down next to Moore, the man across from him began to quickly hand over cards.

Moore offered Dowook a red drink that was on the side table.

“Ah…”

Do-wook, who was handed a glass of alcohol, was about to drink it first.

The words ‘don’t pick up anything and eat it’ that I heard in a conversation with Hulbert passed by. It was a metaphorical statement while talking about not taking on any role even if it’s urgent.

And for the first time in a long time, an article he had seen before appeared in Do-wook’s mind.

The reason for my reluctance became clear.

‘You shouldn’t drink it.’
