The splendid life of Korean entertainment

Three days after the press conference, Jin Baora brought Song Ya a list of some TV dramas and movies that were expected to be filmed in the second half of [-] to the beginning of [-].

"Let's take a look first. KBS TV's plan for [-] hasn't come out yet. They have recently changed the team leader. The specific shooting date and list are estimated to be next month."

Song Ya took the list and glanced at it. To be honest, she didn't know much about the Korean entertainment industry or even the entire Asian entertainment industry.The ones I’ve heard of are those world-class big names—directors Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou from mainland China; Wu Yusen from Hong Kong, China (Song Ya once played a small role in “Face Changing” directed by him), Japan’s It was Akira Kurosawa.Are there any famous Korean directors?She couldn't remember.The only Korean actor I have a little impression of is Lee Young-ae who once served as a judge at the Berlin Film Festival.

"Sister Paula should help me make up my mind." Song Ya decided to give up the right to choose.She believed in Kim Bora.

Jin Baora looked at the titles of dramas line after line on the list, and finally fixed her gaze on SBS's "Stairway to Heaven". "Let's try this crew first, the heroine has already been decided, it's Ms. Cui Zhiyou."

In Korea, Choi Ji Woo is an actress as famous as Lee Young Ae, very famous.The appearance is cold and arrogant, and the acting skills are profound.

For a good work, in addition to a well-written script, the director and actors are equally important. After all, a TV work is a collective effort, and no small link can be neglected.

"Where's the leading actor?" Song Ya asked.Actresses are so popular, male actors should not be bad either.After all, the aura has to match.

"I haven't decided yet." Jin Baora said, "I heard that we are going to choose between Mr. Kwon Sang-woo and Mr. Jang Dong-gun."

Right on the right, Zhang Dongjian, and Song Ya's minds gradually rose to the images of two tall men with torch-like eyes.Zhang Dongjian is rather cold, while the power minister is more refined.

"However..." Kim Bora suddenly said regretfully: "The supporting actress has also been confirmed this morning, and it is the young actress Miss Kim Tae Hee who starred in the movie "Gift" in 2001."

So it's just an interview for a side role?Haha, it's okay.

"Don't be frustrated, Sister Paula." Song Ya said with a smile, she didn't care at all, "I don't have acting experience, how can I take on a big role right away, if I can be selected by the crew, I will play a small role. I'm very happy."

Song Ya is not modest, first of all, she is now a little trainee without any acting experience, and she is not wronged by playing tricks.The second is that she has been on the big screen since her debut, and she is completely unfamiliar with the production process of the small screen.So she also wants to take this opportunity to learn more about the filming and production process of the TV series, maybe it will be fun too.

After Jin Baola left, Song Ya sat alone in front of the computer and began to look up information.Although she is not afraid of auditions, it is also necessary to understand the Korean drama model in advance.After all, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win a hundred battles.She hopes she can audition successfully.

Early the next morning, Jin Bora drove Song Ya to a studio set up by SBS TV station on Myeongdong Street in Seoul to participate in the audition.The studio is located on the seventh floor of an office building.It looks very ordinary, the decoration is simple and plain, no different from ordinary companies.

The staff at the front desk poured a cup of hot water for Song Ya and Jin Baora respectively, and then said: "The two of you should wait here first, the director is receiving guests."

"It's a very important guest!" Jin Baora said casually.After Song Ya confirmed to come for the interview yesterday, Jin Baora made an appointment with SBS in advance.Koreans are more punctual. Unless there is a major change, they will not change the meeting time at will, and there will be no particularly impolite phenomena such as breaking an appointment or being late.

The lady at the front desk nodded, pretending to be mysterious: "Yes, it is indeed a very important guest."

Jin Bao came to his senses, enthusiastically grabbed the hand of the front desk lady, and asked as if he knew her very well, "Who is it?"

The front desk lady smiled and shook her head, her eyes flickering.

Jin Baora became excited: "Oh, hurry up, sister, the audition will be over in a while, and I will treat you to dinner. Rib soup, barbecue, fried pork chops, oh, you can order whatever you want!"

The lady at the front desk covered her mouth and snickered. She didn't intend to hide it, but after all, only when she wants to talk, can she appear to be important.

"It's the right senior!" She said in a low voice.

"Ah, really?!" Jin Baora couldn't believe it at all, and covered her chest, as if she was about to faint.

"Yes, yes!" The front desk lady also looked happy.The two women embraced each other, as if they had received an engagement ring from their boyfriend at the same time.

"Aren't you happy, Yami?" Seeing that Song Ya was not excited, Jin Baora couldn't help asking.That's the right senior!Born as a model, she is the dream lover of all Korean women.Strong figure, elegant appearance, slightly pursed lips.Oh my god, just thinking about it makes my heart beat.

Song Ya looked dull, clapped her hands dryly and said in cooperation: "Happy, happy."

While waiting, several young artists came to audition.Two women and one man.Everyone is about the same age, plus the agent is not there (Jin Baola ran away with the front desk lady, I don’t know what to do. Others don’t have exclusive agents. There are also several magazines and photography studios in this building , after the agent arranged them here, they took other artists to interview elsewhere.) So after a short silence, everyone chatted slowly.

"Are you Ms. Song Yamei from S/M Company?" asked a stylishly dressed girl.She loves to laugh, her eyes are bent into two when she speaks, and her voice is very sweet.

Song Ya didn't expect that she would be so famous, and that there would be people who knew her where she met by chance.But when I think of the sensational "suicide suspicion" a few days ago, it seems not surprising.But Song Ya was very uncomfortable, she didn't want to let everyone know her in this way.

"Well, yes, hello." Song Ya greeted awkwardly.

The girl said, "My name is Cai Yan!" She paused intentionally, with a helpless and ashamed look in her eyes, "However, you have to call me Sister Cai Yan."

Miss Cai Yan?Song Ya looked her up and down, unable to tell her specific age.I thought it shouldn't be similar to myself, right?

"Are you Geng this year?" The quiet looking shy girl beside Cai Yan asked.She introduced her as soon as she entered the door. The name was a bit awkward, but Song Ya remembered it, and it was called "Gu Huishan". Born in 1984, one year younger than Song Ya.

"Guess what?" Cai Yan looked at Gu Hye-sun playfully.

Gu Huishan smiled and shook her head, her little face blushed inexplicably, as if she had just been molested by a boy.Song Ya looked at her, feeling inexplicably fond of her.

"I'm already [-] years old!" Cai Yan suddenly said in that broken voice.It seems like this is a very shameful thing.

"Impossible?!" Gu Huishan didn't believe it at all, and looked Cai Yan up and down. "You look about 21 or [-] years old, very young."

Song Ya at the side didn't believe it either. 25 years old, just debuted?At this age in Korea, not to mention debuting as an artist, even getting married is probably considered a late marriage.

"Be famous as early as possible" is what Eileen Chang said, as if Asians are born very sensitive to age, especially the age of women.In European and American movies, it is quite normal for women in their 50s and 20s to fall in love.However, in Asian movies, falling in love belongs to 40-year-old girls.If a woman over the age of [-] is still fantasizing about love, most viewers will think that this woman is mentally abnormal.

"She should be sent to a mental hospital!" The audience thought so.

In the previous life, Song Ya was born in 1981. When she co-starred in "Inception" with Leonardo DiCaprio in 2010, she was called a little girl by the other party. You must know that she was almost 30 years old at that time.If it were in Asia, a [-]-year-old woman would probably be called "Auntie".And what is even more annoying is that Koreans still like to count false years!

When she first realized this after time travelling, Song Ya also collapsed.I thought that at 20 years old, I was still young and had a lot of time to waste, but in the company, when faced with Jessica born in 89 and Yoona born in 90, Song Ya suddenly felt that she was a Slow moving old monster.

The combined age of the two little girls is less than 30 years old. Seriously, isn't the company breaking the law by doing this?

It's time to become famous as early as possible, Song Ya already felt that she had lost at the starting line, and the 25-year-old Cai Yan...should have just woken up.

So brave!Song Ya looked at Cai Yan with admiration.

"Hey, hey, don't look at me like that, I'm not an old lady!" Cai Yan said embarrassedly, covering her face.

"Which company does Miss Cai Yan belong to?" The boy who had been sitting in the corner listening to music with earphones finally spoke.He has a cute full moon face, red lips, clear eyes, simple sportswear and white sneakers, and he seems to be a student.

Can you still hear everyone talking while listening to the song?Hehe, it seems that he is also a shy boy who is afraid to communicate with strangers.

"CJ Entertainment." Cai Yan said.

"Sister is amazing." The boy said with admiration.The tone should have two meanings, one is to admire Cai Yan's courage to debut at the age of 25, and the other is that CJ Entertainment Group is indeed a very good company.Unlike S/M, YG and other companies that mainly publish records, CJ Entertainment focuses on the film and TV drama market and has strong financial strength.How much is a record?How much does it cost to make a movie?The difference is obvious.

"Big company!" Song Ya exclaimed.Gu Huishan on the side also nodded quickly, his eyes full of reverence.

Now Cai Yan felt embarrassed again.I stroked my hair before remembering to ask the boy, "Yes, I've been talking for a long time, what's your name?"

The boy smiled shyly, then said softly, "I, hehe, my name is Song Zhongji."

The author has something to say: Yesterday, Beijing Guoan drew with Suwon Samsung 1:1, and entered the knockout round with the first place in the group. Our country is mighty, and there are two updates today. Thank you for your support. Finally, I shouted: Guoan is the champion. Damn it! !

Among the younger brothers who are not from S/M companies, Song Joong Ki is the first to appear.

By the way, brother Zhongji will be discharged from the army this month, welcome back~~

Have you watched "Face Changing" directed by John Woo?Starring Nicolas Cage, it's pretty awesome!Here I sincerely recommend it~
