Chapter 349: Return (1) Translator: Santos The close-up of director Ahn Ga-bok’s face appeared on the TV broadcasting the closing ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival. The members and staff of the “Leech” production company from Korea stared at the screen in disbelief, numbering at least twenty. They couldn’t grasp the reality of the announcement of the Palme d’Or on TV. “Uh??” “Huh???” “…Did they just say ‘Leech’??” “That’s what I heard…- 6.7 M • Ongoing
- Chapter 348: Closing (6) Translator: Santos The deep voice of Kang Woo-jin echoed in the grand hall of the Cannes Film Festival’s closing ceremony. His face was calm, collected, and stoic, making it hard to believe he was the first man from Korea to receive such an honor. He directed his remarks towards the audience, global film industry magnates, and reporters from various countries, stating in Korean: “I have a home in LA, so next year, I’ll be aiming for that market.” It was akin to a…

- Chapter 347: Closing (5) Translator: Santos Just before Kang Woo-jin’s name echoed through the grand hall of the 74th Cannes Film Festival’s closing ceremony and awards, he found himself seated, lost in thought. It was accurate to say he had no great expectations. Still, he had imagined it. **‘If I receive the Best Actor award here at Cannes, it would be truly insane.’** Having experienced the overwhelming energy of the Cannes Film Festival, a grand celebration of global cinema, for…

- Chapter 346: Closing (4) Translator: Santos Kang Woo-jin awoke groggily, chuckling to himself. Was this what they called fainting from disbelief? Just a few hours ago, he felt like sleep would be impossible, yet, absurdly, it was now past 9 AM. **“What a strange feeling.”** As he shook off his previous persona, Woo-jin felt a mix of calmness and anxiety. He wanted to lie still, but his heart began to race more quickly. Whatever it was, – **Swoosh.** It was time to get moving. As he slid out of…

- Chapter 345: Closing (3) Translator: Santos “The Leech” and “The Beneficial Evil” Launch Simultaneously. After wrapping up the Cannes Film Festival, *The Leech* is set to premiere in South Korea at the end of October, while the much-anticipated and controversial *The Beneficial Evil* will be released almost simultaneously in Japan. Although the two films are debuting in different countries, there’s one key similarity: Both star Kang Woo-jin. This means that Woo-jin’s films will be…

- Chapter 344: Closing (2) Translator: Santos It was morning in Korea, but in Cannes, France, where the film festival was in full swing, it was just past midnight on the 4th. The time was around 1 AM. As the globally renowned festival had entered a brief lull after a day of raucous celebration, Kang Woo-jin could be found in his hotel room. *“Hmm—”* He was lying on the bed in comfortable attire. His face and hair were still natural, having been washed not long ago. Of course, his usual persona was…

- Chapter 343: Closing (1) Translator: Santos *“…What? Mother?”* *“She told me to call her that.”* Furious, Yoon Ja-ho grabbed Kang Woo-jin by the collar. Woo-jin wore a mysterious smile. *“She’ll be sad, my mother.”* Yoon Ja-ho spoke like a true leech. He warned him not to step into the same world, not to get confused. Soon, Kang Woo-jin’s face filled the giant screen. He was looking at his reflection in the window of the first-floor living room of the grand mansion. He was in the…

- Chapter 342: Cannes (8) Translator: Santos When a person suddenly witnesses an unexpected sight, they may freeze in place. Their words might fail them, or they may be so shocked that they become paralyzed. Either way, that was the case in the enormous 3,000-seat *Lumiere Theater* at the *Palais des Festivals*. “…” “…” “…” The only Korean film invited to the Cannes Film Festival’s competition section. In other words, the afternoon screening of *The Leech*. The 3,000…

- Chapter 341: Cannes (7) Translator: Santos Two years since debut? That can’t be right. That was the thought of director Danny Landis. His reaction of disbelief was entirely natural. The film *The Leech* that he had watched that morning—specifically, the performance of Kang Woo-jin in *The Leech*—seemed to him to be at a level that could only be achieved after at least a decade of experience as an actor, given his position as a Hollywood heavyweight. Moreover, wasn’t that “Ripley Syndrome”…

- Chapter 340: Cannes (6) Translator: Santos In fact, Hollywood director Danny Randis had little interest in the film *The Leech*. He felt somewhat pushed into attending this Cannes Film Festival. Although it was a bother, he had come with a somewhat agreeable mindset due to the persistent requests from those around him. That was just his nature. He enjoyed watching films from various countries, but the overwhelming presence of hundreds of thousands of people muddled his mind. He had started directing…
