Rebirth of the Director in Korea

“Ye-jin -ssi, it’s time to go out for an interview!”

After finishing the makeup and styling, the makeup artist gently pushed her Shoulder, and then said in Son Ye-jin’s ear.

Feeling the touch on his shoulder, Son Ye-jin immediately woke up from his sleep and laughed at the makeup artist embarrassedly, “Did I just fall asleep?”

“Not only did I fall asleep, but I also slept soundly!” The makeup artist twitched the corner of his mouth, and there was a hint of laughter in his words.

“The past few days have been busy with the promotion of “Outing”. I haven’t been able to take a good rest for a week!” Son Ye-jin sat up straight, and pulled out from the table. Zhang wiped the corners of his eyes lightly and explained.

“You’re too tired like this. You should take a break when you need to take a break. After all, humans are not machines. Where can they behave like machines? Besides, even the machines will stop when they should take a break. Some oil or something, you will get sick if you abuse your body sooner or later!”

Said, the makeup Senior Sister, who is seven or eight years older than Son Ye-jin, kindly warned repeatedly: “It’s still the sentence I told you. When it’s time to take a break, learn to take a break. It’s good to go out for shopping, travel, and so on!”

“I I know, I know!” For this elder sister, Son Ye-jin felt quite a headache. This elder sister is good at everything and just preached when she got the chance. Now she hit her muzzle and thought about it. , Son Ye-jin immediately lowered his head to look like he was listening attentively.

“Okay, okay! I won’t say anything, what do you think about this hairstyle and makeup? I will change it if it feels inappropriate, if you can, you should go out for an interview! “

Maybe she also felt that her words were a bit too much. The makeup artist showed Son Ye-jin her results. Son Ye-jin, who is naturally beautiful, is in the hands of the makeup artist. It becomes more beautiful and moving, no wonder people say, “There are no ugly women, only women who are too lazy to make-up”!

“-eonni, thank you!” Son Ye-jin looked at himself in his glasses through the mirror, turned his head and smiled and said to his makeup artist.

“Thank you, let’s go, the reporters outside should be anxious!”

Son Ye-jin nodded, and then he got up, dressed in beige and slim The pleated dress is full of feminine temperament, a pair of eyes that can smile, and the innocent look attracts people’s attention.

Although the domestic results are not particularly ideal, it still needs to be promoted. After all, the initial investment has been invested. Son Ye-jin’s interview with media reporters this time is a routine Formula promotion activities.

In the actor contract of this movie, in addition to indicating salary and time, how many times the actor should participate in the promotional activities of the film, these all are written clearly in black and white, it can be done at least once Be considered a breach of contract.

The place where I was interviewed by media reporters today is in a studio in Yang-cheon District. This is a place where many artists take photo stills. In addition to interviews from these media, Son Ye-jin also needs to take a cover photo for the next issue of a magazine, which is not an easy task.

The reporter who had been waiting in the studio for a long time saw the visitor, and his eyes immediately became energetic. They waved to the Goddess who came to him, and everyone said in unison: “Son Ye -jin -ssi, hello!”

“Hello!” Son Ye-jin nodded responded.

Among the reporters, several male reporters have already smiled with wrinkles on their faces, as if they were afraid that others would not know that he is a fan of Son Ye-jin.

“Son Ye-jin -ssi, may I tell you which aspect of “Outing” touched you the most?”

See Son Ye-jin sitting down When they arrived on the sofa that had been prepared, the reporters immediately asked questions, for fear that they would be left until the end.

“Director’s relationship. I have always wanted to work with Director Xu Qinhao. Director Xu Qinhao’s work style is different from my previous work. I used to prepare a lot of work before filming, but Director Xu didn’t Same, I want to learn different ways of working from him.”

When the reporter asked, Son Ye-jin smiled slightly, and then said in a tranquil voice. How can I say that it has been four or five years since his debut, there is no pressure at all when facing problems like this, Son Ye-jin can easily resolve it.

“Son Ye-jin -ssi, which one of the scenes in “Out” challenged you the most?”

“Do you?” Hear this, Son Ye-jin was stunned for a moment, and then replied with a smile: “In fact, not every scene, but every scene is like this. The whole of “Outing” is difficult for me. The life of the heroine and Thinking is a more difficult thing for me, and it is a very hard and difficult process to learn the method of director.”

“Then, Son Ye-jin -ssi, you are here How did you overcome it in the process?” After one person asked, the next question followed, leaving no time for her to think in detail.

“My way of working in the past was to prepare this role in advance, but now it is different. The director will restrict the role must do and do on the spot, and there are many changes. However, in the process, Director Xu Qinhao gave When I got something out of me, I was suddenly different. Unexpected emotions and feelings came out. In this way, I felt very hard at the beginning, but later I found it very interesting. This feeling is very good.”

“After the movie “A Moment to Remember”, because the film is so popular in Asia, some people say that you are a representative of the new generation of Korean Wave. How do you see this?” The reporter’s mouth is always listening Half, leave half, just like this sentence If he really wants to dig a hole, Son Ye-jin really may not be able to beat the power of the masses.

“I have never been afraid of being compared by others. Although my debut time is still short, as a newcomer, I will do my best to let the audience know me better!”

After listening to Son Ye-jin’s answer, someone in this group of reporters raised their hands and saw that Son Ye-jin touched him, and his face couldn’t help showing a sigh of joy.

“Son Ye-jin -ssi, are there any other movies this year after the movie “Out”? For example, movies, TV series, etc.”

“Movies If there is a movie to be released at the end of the year, I am also busy shooting the last few parts of the movie recently. It is estimated that I will be able to meet you in two months. As for TV dramas, there are no plans for this yet. “Speaking of this, Son Ye-jin laughed embarrassedly.

Each company has a different artist path plan for its own artists, just like Im Soo-jung’s agency plans for her, that is, movies, movies, movies, “I’m Sorry “, I Love You” never took over the script of the TV series after this TV series, Son Ye-jin also followed this path.

“Son Ye-jin -ssi, if you said that there will be a good TV drama script in the future, if you want to shoot a TV drama, do you have a director you want to work with?” A reporter beside him raised his hand and then Said.

“Director…” Son Ye-jin was stunned for a second, and immediately reacted. Hearing the reporter’s question, Son Ye-jin didn’t know why he remembered that The guy on the cover of this magazine, because he has watched “I’m Sorry, I Love You” directed by him, has no resistance at all to TV shows like this.

“Jung Hyuk-jae -ssi, Jung PD!”

After hearing Son Ye-jin’s answer, the reporters were involuntarily stunned for a few seconds, didn’t expect Son Ye-jin’s answer turned out to be him.

“Why?”

“I prefer Jung PD’s handling of the rhythm of TV dramas and the final images shown on TV. In my opinion, every intercepted Frames can almost be regarded as desktops!”

…………………………… ……

After “Welcome to Dongmakgol” was nominated for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, the box office results in the last week are not as good as the previous week. , But the attendance rate and the number of screens have increased to a certain extent. It seems that the theaters and the theaters are quite accurate, and the unanimous recognition of the results of this movie will definitely give people a big surprise.

On September 24th, on the 48th day after “Welcome to Dongmakgol” was officially released, the number of viewers officially broke through 8 million.

Although the attendance rate of the movie has reached about 40% by this time, the potential of the movie is still there. It shouldn’t be a big problem to try to sprint the number of movie viewers. The theater is naturally ready to squeeze out the final bit of profit from the film.

As a benchmark film in the South Korea film industry this year, as a director Park Kwang-hyun has received a lot of attention in the industry. As a new film director, several in the industry can count. Hou’er’s film production companies have come to the door one after another, and there is an imposing manner of’make whatever you want to film’, and all the requirements are for Park Kwang-hyun to mention.

He used to be poor before and was taken aback by these rich and imposing bosses.

The performance of “Welcome to Dongmakgol” in South Korea is getting better and better, which naturally attracted the attention of film distribution companies in Asian countries, especially when the number of viewers of “Welcome to Dongmakgol” When the breakthrough reached 8 million, large and small film distribution companies in Japan, Singapore and other countries called in to ask whether the overseas copyright of the film had been sold.

There are two main schemes for the sale of overseas copyrights. One is a one-time buyout, which means that the distribution company will buy out the broadcasting rights of a certain country. Since then, all the profits generated by the film will be It has nothing to do with the production company of the movie; the other is the box office share, which means that the movie will be handed over to the distribution company of a certain country to promote and show. Re-distribution is a risky way of sharing. After all, no one knows how their own movies will react abroad.

If you are not confident, most will choose the first distribution method. Although your income will be much less, everyone knows that if the second If operation is not good, then it is better to directly choose the first distribution method. One, after all, illusory’s results are far from being as real as it is.

“So, do you want me to go to Japan?” Jung Hyuk-jae glanced at the ticket two days later in his hand, although Park Kwang-hyun hasn’t made it clear what it was for. But Jung Hyuk-jae has already understood it, and it must be for the problem of box office share.

“Japan’s Toho Distribution Company is going to introduce our movie. I have something to do at Foundation tomorrow, so I can’t go. But I want to come to you and Joe Hisaishi are also familiar with you, believe this There should be no problem when I go to Japan this time. I’ll leave it to you with all the power to sign the contract over there!” Park Kwang-hyun said very seriously.

For the Foundation mentioned by Park Kwang-hyun, Jung Hyuk-jae knows exactly what it is. The number of viewers in “Welcome to Dongmakgol” exceeds 5 million. At that time, Park Kwang-hyun, who suddenly became famous in the film industry, accepted the appointment of the “Dream Boosting Fund”, became the censor of the fund, and appeared in the public as a “dream ambassador”.

The “Dream Support Fund” will select 5 ordinary persons in South Korea through the online video contest and sponsor them to realize their dreams.

The movie “Welcome to Dongmakgol” was born in South Korea. Park Kwang-hyun, who has shocked many filmmakers, is actually not wealthy, he is pursuing because of family difficulties. I suffered a lot on the way of film dreams, and then I joined the advertising industry close to the film industry. Park Kwang-hyun, who never gave up his dream of filming, has accumulated a lot of experience through shooting commercials, which also made him finally amaze the world with a single brilliant feat with “Welcome to Dongmakgol”, showing surprisingly sophisticated and guiding ability.

Actually, this activity is similar to that of Lotte Films and other college student movies, but this one faces an ordinary person, while Lotte Movies faces college students from the movie Academy.

Although I have only recently heard about this dream Foundation, Jung Hyuk-jae knows the identity of the person behind this Foundation, and behind this Foundation is the shadow of CJ.E&M.

So don’t look at CJ.E&M normally, but in fact CJ.E&M’s tentacles cover all aspects of people’s entertainment life. If you say Jung Hyuk-jae until now In terms of goals, then CJ.E&M is definitely one of the goals he pursues until now.

“The time is so tight!” Jung Hyuk-jae glanced at the time on the ticket, at ten o’clock in the morning the day after tomorrow.

“It’s a little tight!” Park Kwang-hyun was a little bit embarrassed, but nodded said: “Although the time is a bit tight, but if the negotiation goes well, the time spent staying there is shouldn’t be very long!”

“That line, I know!” Hearing this, Jung Hyuk-jae nodded.
