Of course, Dowook also thought it would be best not to withdraw from ‘Heroes 2’. All I had to do was get a proper apology from Chris Moore.
Daniel told Moore’s managent company that Dowook was very angry at Moore’s discriminatory remarks, and that if the reason for Dowook’s departure is revealed, Moore could be accused of being a racist.
He also quietly suggested that the fact that he violated drug laws could be known even if he did not go to the extent of being racist.
Daniel also explained in detail that Do-wook is a person who would reveal everything honestly even if he loses his role as ‘Heroes’.
In the end, because Dowook was hard-line, Moore had no choice but to raise his hand.
Moore ca to Dowook’s waiting room on the day of filming.
Moore’s face was filled with exasperation.
With a red face, Moore apologized to Dowook.
“What are you apologizing for?”
Do-wook pressured Moore until he heard a specific apology from Moore saying that he would never say things like ‘young bastards’ or ‘young girls’ again.
Moore’s manager, who knew Moore’s personality, felt restless, but Do-wook wanted to receive that level of apology.
Of course, Moore wasn’t truly apologizing. However, the damage to his pride was enough to make up for what happened that day.
Anyway, nothing else happened that night with Moore, who was under the influence of alcohol and drugs, and it was aningful to receive an apology from Moore, who was in a rational state.
After Moore apologized and left, the door to the waiting camping car provided for Dowook was opened once again.
As Do-wook’s manager, it was Manager Oh Baek-ho who received permission to enter the filming set.
“Do-Wook!”
Daniel, who was with , looked surprised. This was because Manager Oh Baek-ho’s montum was strong as he entered the camping car.
Of course, Do-wook, who had been with Director Oh Baek-ho for a long ti, was not surprised by Director Oh Baek-ho’s bear-like spirit.
“Did you get the apology from that bastard?”
“yes. Well, for now…”
“Okay. Baby, no matter how you live or not. “How dare you try to ruin soone else’s life…”
Manager Oh Baek-ho stiffened his expression and clicked his tongue. Do-wook was K-K’s pride, regardless of Do-wook himself.
Manager Oh Baek-ho and the mbers fully supported Do-wook’s statent that he would not appear in ‘Heroes 2’ unless Chris Moore apologized to him.
Of course, there was also the belief that Dowook would be able to receive an apology from Chris Moore.
Therefore, they actively put pressure on Chris Moore’s managent company through Daniel.
Manager Oh Baek-ho, who was frowning, lowered his frown and continued speaking.
“Was the remaining filming period about two weeks?”
It seed like he was asking Dowook, but it was Daniel who confird. After confirming, Daniel nodded. The last day of filming was exactly 10 days later.
“I think I should go to Las Vegas with the mbers right after it’s over. as soon as.”
“Not Korea?”
The mbers were staying in the United States with Do-wook, taking a break while working on their own songs, clearing all their personal schedules.
Originally, I was planning to return to Korea with Do-wook and review my future activity plans.
There were many albums that were pushed back, including Dowook’s solo album and KK’s album. The fastest one was Ahn Hyeong-seo’s solo album.
Manager Oh Baek-ho smiled and nodded in response to Do-wook’s question. It was a smile that appeared when there was good news.
‘What’s going on? No, if it’s Las Vegas at this ti…’
Do-wook blinked and asked in a recalled tone.
“No way, on the billboard…”
Manager Oh Baek-ho shouted at Do-wook’s words.
“okay! I went to Billboard again! Besides…”
The fact that we would be invited to the Billboard Awards again following last year was sothing we had been anticipating both internally and externally.
‘Connection’, the title of KK’s latest album, inherited the energy of ‘Continue’ and maintained a fairly good ranking on the Billboard charts.
Gaining montum from Arican performances with V TV, the group surpassed its previous performance and continued to remain in the top rankings.
Even now, quite so ti after the album was released, it was still in the top 40. It was an incredible result, and it was better than ‘Continue’.
However, the problem is that during ‘Continue’, he was a candidate for the Rookie of the Year Award. KK, who had already won the Rookie of the Year award, now had to compete with prominent world-renowned singers whose nas would make people gag.
Therefore, the question was, ‘Which category will I be able to list my na in?’
“Besides, I wasn’t only nominated in one category. “Best Album, Top Dance Artist, and Social Artist… In addition, I was even offered a special performance.”
Daniel, who was listening next to him, opened his mouth.
“oh my god! “The Best Album and Top Dance Artist categories are the main award categories, right?”
“Yes.”
Manager Oh Baek-ho answered.
The candidates in all three categories were world-class singers, incomparable to last year’s Rookie Award nominees.
KK was completely shoulder to shoulder with them.
“I think I have to go to Las Vegas right away for the special performance.”
“I… I see.”
Dowook answered a little blankly.
Certainly, entering the Billboard charts was not the end of success. That was just the beginning. The peak continued to rise.
Manager Oh Baek-ho placed his hand on Do-wook’s shoulder.
“Do-wook.”
“yes.”
“Good work.”
It was a heavy word from Manager Oh Baek-ho, who has been with Do-wook from the beginning until now. Manager Oh Baek-ho may not be able to gauge Do-wook’s feelings, but it was clear that he was one of the people who understood the most after himself.
“Ah… I haven’t even received the award yet.”
Although he said so, Do-wook also knew the aning of Manager Oh Baek-ho’s words, ‘Thank you for your hard work.’
Even if he didn’t receive the award, Do-wook already had to put in a lot of effort up to this point.
“Acting is so much fun, but now I can’t wait to get on stage.”
However, Do-wook was ready to work harder in the future.
To that end, I promised myself several tis not to lose my original, pure dream.
Manager Oh Baek-ho laughed at Do-wook’s words.
“I really wish I had five bodies instead of two.”
“So greedy…!”
Manager Oh Baek-ho scolded him. Dowook smiled cleanly.
***
After finishing the final filming of ‘Heroes 2’, Dowook and the KK mbers left New York and headed to Las Vegas.
Daniel and Dowook, who did their best both materially and spiritually throughout the filming of ‘Heroes 2’, bid a sad farewell. Dowook also exchanged greetings with director Jean-Luc and Hulbert separately before leaving for Las Vegas.
As director Jean-Luc continued filming, he realized that Dowook was a greater character than he thought. He had a premonition that in the future, he might not be able to appear in his own movies other than the ‘Heroes’ series.
Hulbert did not specifically ntion what happened between Dowook and Moore at his party. However, whenever there was a strange tension between the two on set, Do-wook gave his strength.
Thanks to this, the remaining filming was able to be completed safely without any major issues with Moore.
‘Heroes 2’ was scheduled to be released next spring after undergoing editing work.
Even if it was released, it would not be possible for all the big actors who would pay a huge amount of money for a day to gather. Promotional activities would also be carried out by teams across the world.
Before breaking up with Do-wook, Hulbert expressed his desire to visit Korea.
Unlike director Jean-Luc, who simply felt the energy of a great actor in Do-wook while filming, Hulbert felt a more human charm towards Do-wook.
Dowook also wanted to maintain a good relationship with Hulbert. Although he relied too much on alcohol in his personal life, he was a good actor who had a lot to learn from Do-wook.
“Let’s see… then… Hyungseo’s album and Dowook’s solo album will be released at the end of the year and early in the year… and KK’s album will be released to coincide with the release of Heroes 2. the poor?”
The business room of a hotel in Las Vegas where the Billboard Awards ceremony was held was converted into a Hit Entertainnt conference room.
Hotel etings, which were awkward at first, beca a familiar occurrence after KK beca a world-class group.
Shim Jun, head of the album production team, organized the entire album release schedule.
The KK mbers nodded.
Ahn Hyeong-seo’s solo album was supposed to include a song written and composed by Seok Ji-hoon and a song featuring Kim Won.
“Do-wook, is your schedule okay? Did you say you have a few songs written…”
“I have… but I think I’ll probably have to work on them more after the awards ceremony ends. And…”
The mbers and team leader Sim Jun’s attention was focused on Do-wook.
“I hope my solo album will be released as a digital single. “I want to pay more attention to Heroes and KK’s upcoming album…”
Team Leader Sim Jun’s eyes widened a little.
In fact, since the KK album was the main focus rather than the solo album, it was sothing I wanted to ask from the perspective of the album production team leader, but it was not sothing I could say to Dowook.
However, when Do-wook said that he wanted to focus on KK’s album rather than his own album, it was good news for Team Leader Sim Jun.
“Well… is that okay?”
“sure. I am a mber of KK. And this KK album… it’s really new… I want to try sothing more. Properly…”
It’s not that he hasn’t done it properly so far, but Do-wook now wants to set foot in a new place.
It was true that until now, I had chosen a safe path that was ‘successful’ in order to achieve success. However, since I was established enough to be on Billboard’s main awards list, I thought it was ti to change and challenge myself musically.
And I thought that only by doing so could I survive for a long ti into a future that Do-wook did not know about.
“Hey, it’s not Kang Do-wook for nothing. “It was great!”
Team Leader Sim Jun shouted in an excited voice.
The mbers’ expressions were subtle. It was because I felt sohow sorry and thankful. Jeong Yoon-gi took one look at Do-wook and said.
“Of course it is, but… it is not easy… I will work harder too.”
“That’s right, bro, work harder!”
Hyeong-seo Ahn chid in as if he was being scolded for no reason.
“I too… I’ll do my best at the choreography…!”
Taehyung Park, who was sitting next to Dowook, also spoke.
‘If it’s like this, a group called K.K. can’t go down.’
Team leader Lee Dae-hyung, who was watching the eting from one side, thought.
“Okay then, let’s take a ten minute break and then move on to the awards ceremony stage concept eting!”
When Manager Oh Baek-ho shouted, Ahn Hyeong-seo laughed.
“Can’t we take a fifteen minute break? The eting is too long…”
“Do you want to rest forever?”
Ahn Hyeong-seo quickly closed his mouth at Manager Oh Baek-ho’s fierce look.
“Let’s put together a truly killer stage and sweep the Billboard!”
“Yes!”
Kim Won shouted with all his might in response to leader Jeong Yoon-gi’s shout. Even though it was a shaful comnt, Ahn Hyeong-seo and the other mbers all had the sa thoughts as Jeong Yoon-gi.
Both Dowook and the mbers had the sa desire to be on stage quickly.
