Peninsula Asteroid

Although the three-day vacation in Hawaii was pleasant, the idol's schedule couldn't stop at all. After returning to Seoul, Chi Kyung-won slept for a night to rest and then went straight back to work. The next most important thing The thing is that the crew of "Ghost", which has been in preparation for several months, has been formed and will officially start filming soon.

A script study session is prepared before the filming of every TV series, and "Goblin" happened to be scheduled on September 1st... It was also a coincidence that he just came back from Hawaii. If it had been two days earlier, Chi Jingyuan would have probably Yoona sunbaenim also can't even go to Hawaii. It's impossible for him, the leading actor, not to attend such an important occasion.

Today is the first day of September. Early in the morning, Chi Jingyuan took a nanny car and headed to the venue where the study meeting was held.

"It feels like the temperature in Seoul has dropped a bit in the past two days... There hasn't been any interesting news lately."

I don’t know if he played too much in the past few days. Chi Jingyuan seemed to have no energy. He was sitting lazily in the back row, talking to his manager Park Jae-hyun, and watching the news of the past two days on his mobile phone.

"The ratings of "Bu Bu Jing Xin: Li" were sluggish when it first aired. The ratings plummeted and it ranked last. The creative team came forward to explain.

This news, "Lee" seems to have started airing on the 29th of last month. It's a pity... It's a pity that IU sunbaenim seems to be involved in another drama, and it also involves Baekhyun hyung and Seohyun sunbaenim.

‘ZIco revealed his love story with AOA’s Seolhyun on the variety show “Golden Fishing Ground-Radio Star” and said that he does not push and pull relationships and is very cautious about confirming relationships. ’

This is good. This news makes Chi Jingyuan feel better about Zico, who he just knows and is not familiar with... because he also has a similar personality.

After reading the usual reports for a while, Chi Jingyuan, who felt a little bored, raised his head and glanced out the window. He caught a glimpse of a poster of Gong Yoo passing by on the roadside and raised his eyebrows. : "Brother, you said that "Train to Busan" is so popular now, will the crew of "Goblin" have some regrets?"

"Train to Busan" has completely become the biggest hit of Peninsula Movies in the summer and even this year. The box office officially exceeded 10 million a few days ago, becoming a member of the 10 million club in the history of Peninsula Movies.

And the male lead Gong Yoo is naturally on the rise, and he has become extremely popular recently.

"If you have to say that you regret it, you won't regret it. We were originally the best choices for the role.?"

Park Jae-hyun, the co-pilot, knew what he meant and laughed: "Besides, Gong Yoo-xi didn't want to act in the first place. He has refused many times."

"But there should be a little bit of regret." As he said that, he turned around and looked at Chi Jingyuan, and said with a smile: "You should know Jingyuan very well... What you can't get is the best. Well."

"I do not understand."

It always felt like this brother was hinting at something. Chi Jingyuan curled his lips and leaned back, muttering.

Park Jae-hyun smiled happily, but he didn't say any more about it. Instead, he took out his phone and looked at the memo, and seriously reminded: "Today is a script seminar, and the filming of the first scene will officially start tomorrow morning. Next Even if you officially join the group, this is not the first time you have filmed a movie with me, so I won’t say more about some things..."

"We have discussed your schedule with the crew before. The filming schedule, EXO's group schedule, and your personal schedule will all be staggered, but you should be very busy in the next period of time, especially in mid-to-late September. XO’s multiple concerts, Milan Fashion Week, and your endorsement... Jing Yuanqing must be prepared."

"Arathor..."

Chi Jingyuan waved his hand lazily, looking extremely calm.

He has been an idol for four or five years and has long been used to the busy schedule.

There was still some distance from the destination. Chi Jingyuan took out the script and prepared to review it. He had just turned two pages and suddenly remembered something. He raised his head and asked curiously: "By the way, is "Train to Busan" good or not?"

"Haven't you seen it?"

Park Jae Hyun was a little surprised when he heard this.

"without……"

"It's pretty good to watch, otherwise it wouldn't have such a high box office. Apart from the gimmick of being the first zombie movie on the peninsula, the production is actually quite sophisticated, and... it's quite sensational."

This brother even turned around to remind: "It should be released in less than half a month... If you want to watch it, hurry up."

Chi Jingyuan chuckled and looked out the window:

"talk later……"

…………

This time the script study meeting was not held at TVN, but in a large conference room on the sixth floor of the World Dream Commercial Center in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu.

The road conditions here are not very good. The traffic jam started at six or seven in the morning. I waited for a long time at the red light before driving into the underground parking lot of Dream World.

All the way to the elevator, Chi Jingyuan was talking quietly to his agent when he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps gradually becoming clearer from far to near. He looked back and saw a familiar face.

"What a coincidence?"

Chi Jingyuan looked at Pei Xiuzhi, whom he hadn't seen for a while, in surprise.

This woman didn't wear much makeup, and her innocent face looked very plain. Her hair was not carefully taken care of, and it was obviously cut a little short to fit the role. It was casually tucked behind her ears to expose both sides of her cheeks. She was dressed in a simple outfit. The plain loose long-sleeved trousers are very elegant.

At first glance, it actually feels a bit like Chi Enzhuo in the script...

"laugh……"

Pei Xiuzhi blinked and laughed, grabbing his hand and saying hello.

Behind her was her manager. After greeting each other, they stood together waiting for the elevator. Park Jae Hyun and Bae Suzy's managers looked familiar and started chatting directly. They even took a few steps to the side and stood apart. A little bit.

"Why didn't you find me during this time?"

As soon as the manager moved away, Pei Xiuzhi next to him raised his eyes and looked at Chi Jingyuan, raised his eyebrows slightly, covered his mouth and asked in a low voice.

"Didn't you say before that you should concentrate on studying the script and stepping into the role during this period?"

"Do you really believe it?" Pei Xiuzhi couldn't help but rolled his eyes after hearing this.

Shouldn't such words be heard as irony?

Chi Jingyuan shrugged and said nothing.

Of course he didn't believe it. There was no conflict between reading the script and dating, but she had already said so... She was very busy during this period, and she also experienced the unforgettable fireworks display a few days ago, which was inseparable. .

"How are you preparing?"

At this time, the elevator came, and several people walked in together. In the private space, Chi Jingyuan also took the opportunity to ask more normal topics.

"I feel like I'm almost ready."

Speaking of this, Pei Xiuzhi gained some confidence and looked at him as if showing off: "I have been studying the script recently. Have you seen any news about me during this time?"

"..."

Chi Jingyuan recalled it and had some vague impressions: "I remember there was some jewelry endorsement or photo shoot a few days ago?"

"!"

Hearing this, the woman's eyes suddenly shone, she leaned close to his ear and said in a very low voice, with some joy: "You are actually paying attention to me!"

The warm touch lingered around the earlobe, which made Chi Jingyuan feel a little itchy. He shuddered and took a step aside, looking over helplessly.

Aren't you talking about business?

"Is there nothing else but this?"

Sensing Chi Jingyuan's eyes, Pei Xiuzhi smiled slyly, then her voice increased in volume and she instantly switched to a serious look: "That photo was taken a long time ago. Recently, I have pushed a lot of schedules for this role, and I almost broke the script. ”

When the agent next to him heard this, he also confirmed with a smile: "Wuli Suzy really put a lot of effort into this role, and even cut her cherished hair short..."

Looking at Pei Xiuzhi's obviously shorter hair and plain face, Chi Jingyuan actually felt a sense of expectation in his heart. He nodded and looked at her with a smile: "Then I'll watch your performance, Chi Enzhuo. xi.""

Pei Xiuzhi grinned, blinked her left eye vigorously, and made a wink and scissors gesture with great energy. Her bright and pure look made Chi Jingyuan look a bit like Chi Enzhuo in the fantasy script. .

But before he could express his feelings, the woman's eyes suddenly changed. While the manager next to her was not looking at her, her eyes suddenly became charming after winking, her mouth pouted, and she blew a beautiful kiss.

The contrast between the temperament before and after was so great that Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but feel shocked and speechless.

What exactly have you prepared?

…………

The door to the conference room was open, and people were coming and going in the corridor. Chi Jingyuan had many people greeting him and Pei Xiuzhi along the way. As soon as he entered, he saw many snacks and drinks on the table on the right for people to choose from. , and a VJ not far away holding a camera and filming non-stop at the door.

This script seminar was completely videotaped, and it is said that it will be released in future highlights for supporting publicity.

Fortunately, after arriving on the floor, he and Pei Xiuzhi were no longer so close. When they walked into the conference room, they just walked in tandem normally.

Dozens of desks in the conference room are arranged in a rectangular shape, with the main seats located inside. At this time, many people had come, each sitting in his seat and looking through the information in front of him. No one spoke very quietly. As soon as Chi Jingyuan came in, he felt a serious atmosphere and immediately entered into working mode.

The male lead's position is the first one on the left side of the main seat. As one of the youngest people in seniority, Chi Jingyuan kept giving gentle salutes to both sides as he walked in.

Pei Xiuzhi was a few steps behind him, holding her hair and doing the same action. The two of them walked to the first and second seats one after another and sat down. They took out paper, pen and script. Communicate as if you don’t know each other.

Everyone's seats are also arranged. The male and female sit on the left side, while the other leading actors sit on the right side of the main seat opposite. Directly opposite Lee Dong Wook and Yook Sungjae are quite enthusiastic. They sit in Ji Kyung Won. After getting off the screen, he took the initiative to say hello with a smile, and Chi Jingyuan naturally responded quickly... This brother and his brother have a lot of scenes with him in the play, and it will be more convenient for filming if they are familiar with each other.

Basically all the main actors came to this seminar today. In addition to the leading actors Ji Kyung-won, there were also several supporting actors such as Kim Sung-gyeom, Park Hee-bon, and Hwang Seok-jung. After a while, Lee Eung-bok and Kim Eun-sook from the main creative team also came. At the scene, the seminar officially started at 8.30.

"I am the director, Li Yingfu..."

"I am the script writer Kim Eun-sook, please take care of me..."

The first thing in the seminar is for everyone to introduce themselves. Starting from the director, they stand up and introduce themselves and talk about the role they perform. If the conversation becomes more interesting, they can talk about their views and prospects for the show, and then continue Received applause from everyone... Although everyone may have known each other for a long time, this link is a very important part for the cast and crew to get familiar with.

Kim Eun-sook wears round-rimmed glasses and looks quite friendly. As the main creator, she said more: "...because it is also my first time to write a fantasy-themed script, so I am also very nervous. I'm also looking forward to what kind of reaction there will be after filming... And working with such a group of handsome actors has given me a sense of confidence. I hope everyone will work together, and I will work hard, Kang Sangmita."

"Pa bang bang..."

Applause rang out. Most of the actors had a good impression and respect for Kim Eun-sook, a gold medal writer.

"Hello everyone, I am Chi Jingyuan who plays the ghost Jin Qian..."

After Kim Eun-sook, it was the male lead Ji Kyung-won's turn. He stood up with a gentle expression. He saluted lightly as he spoke. Then a burst of applause interrupted his words, and he smiled sheepishly. , then said: "I am very happy to be able to star in the drama "Goblin". Because it is my first time to be a writer on a fantasy TV series, I am actually a little nervous..."

"Ha ha……"

Chi Jingyuan's teasing following Jin Enshu's words immediately made many people around him laugh. He pursed his lips and gave a final salute:

"...I will do my best, Consangmida."

The fan was shaking, and Pei Xiuzhi stood up next to her: "Anihasay, I am Pei Xiuzhi who plays Chi Eun-joo..."

After a round of self-introduction, amidst the constant applause and laughter, the previously serious atmosphere suddenly became a little more relaxed, and then we entered the main topic of today, the study of the script.

It is said to be script reading, but in fact it is not a serious study of scripts and lines. All the actors in the script, including the extremely busy Chi Jingyuan, had already read it to death before the crew was formed. The lines are all memorized very familiarly, so there is no need to improvise.

This segment is actually a very relaxed and playful atmosphere, with continuous applause and laughter. It is somewhat similar to the previous self-introduction, in which the opposite actors read each other's lines to get closer and familiar with each other. It is a kind of pre-shooting Running in can make it smoother after the official start of shooting.

Among them, the ones with the most rivalries are Chi Jingyuan and Bae Suzy...

"mo?"

Chi Jingyuan looked at the script in front of him, imitating Jin Qian's tone, and read it with a sense of surprise.

"I've made up my mind!"

Pei Xiuzhi next to him did not look at him, but also read the script seriously. Her voice was lively and bright, as if she had entered Chi Enzhuo's character, reading a very important line belonging to her: "No matter what I think, They all think that Oppa, you must be a ghost..."

After reading this, she suddenly paused, then her tone changed, and she said with a smile in a cute and serious voice: "I love you..."

When the sound came, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but look to the side, but he happened to see Pei Xiuzhi's smile turning around at the same time.

At the same time, perhaps because they thought Bae Suzy's voice was cute, the actors around her also clapped and laughed.

Chi Jingyuan felt strange. Looking at him, he felt that there was a hint of teasing in the other person's smile.

And 'I love you...'

And why do you have such a cute voice? Don’t I understand you? Are you really into the drama? He glanced at the shy Pei Xiuzhi who was laughing amidst the applause, and cursed in his heart.

How many times have I practiced...

…………

"CUT! NG!"

"Suzy, come here."

Following the PD's order, Pei Xiuzhi, who played Chi Enzhuo's aunt, and Lian Huilan, who played Chi Enzhuo's aunt, stopped their movements at the same time, politely comforted each other, exited the room and walked towards the monitor.

Chi Jingyuan, who had been standing behind the director and the monitor, sighed and shook his head secretly.

After yesterday's script workshop, "Goblin" officially started filming this morning, and the first scene shot by the entire crew was the scene where Ji Eun-joo, played by Bae Suzy, is talking to relatives at home and is abused by her aunt's family.

It's just that Chi Jingyuan knew that most of the crew's scenes before starting filming would not go smoothly, but he didn't expect it to be so unsatisfactory. Not long after filming started, this scene has been NGed almost ten times since then.

This scene is not simple. In addition to the interaction between the actors, the eyes, expressions and outburst of emotions of the character Chi Enzhuo when being abused are very important. With red eyes, it is necessary to interpret the feeling of being abused. Feeling scared, wronged, but stubborn.

The whole thing is still very coherent and needs to be done in one go.

Unfortunately, this seems to be a little difficult for Bae Suzy's acting skills. It may be that she has not yet entered the role, and the PD has not been very satisfied with her emotional expression. She has tried several times but has not made any progress.

Chi Jingyuan actually knows something about this woman's acting skills. In addition to "Introduction to Architecture", which shocked everyone with her superb acting skills and innocent image, which aroused praise, Bae Suzy's acting skills are actually not very good. Outstanding, the performance in the subsequent dramas was not very good, and his acting skills in the previously broadcast "Wandering Attachment" were criticized.

...Actually, if he really had to choose someone with better acting skills between Yoona sunbae and Bae Suzy, Ji Kyung-won would probably have to hesitate a little and carefully weigh the comparison before choosing the latter.

But yesterday, Bae Suzy's bragging and hard work gave Chi Jingyuan the illusion that "since you have prepared so hard and seriously, the shooting went smoothly". At this time, there was a slight gap under the constant NG.

It's completely different from what she said yesterday...

Although it wasn't very smooth, looking at Pei Xiuzhi who was listening to Li Yingfu's lecture not far away and nodding constantly, Chi Jingyuan felt that this was quite good.

Anyway, this is how it is when you first turn it on. Just grind it slowly until you get into the game and feel it.

It would be best if she was in the same state as when she was filming "Introduction to Architecture" and everything would be fine.

In Chi Jingyuan's sight, Pei Xiuzhi listened carefully to Li Yingfu's instructions, and then returned to the middle of the venue. She was smiling and didn't seem to feel depressed. Before the filming started, she even communicated with her co-star Lian Huilan:

"Suzy, lower your head later, I just hit you in the face..." Lian Huilan said politely and with some concern. Although they only took pictures for a while, it seemed that she and Pei Xiuzhi were already comparing each other. Familiar.

In this abuse scene, the aunt has to beat Chi Enzhuo with a pillow, and for the sake of effect, she hits really hard instead of softly for show. Although it is just a pillow, if she hits her body with enough force, she will still feel it if she hits it too much. painful.

However, Pei Xiuzhi smiled and patted Lian Huilan on the back very considerately: "It's okay, senior, you can hit him as you like. It doesn't matter if you hit the head. I have nothing to do."

After saying that, she faced Lian Huilan and let out a burst of silly laughter.

…

Tsk tsk.

Chi Jingyuan, who was watching, couldn't help but smack his lips.

Although the acting skills may not be up to par, the attitude is pretty good.

Then, just as he expected, he started to grind out the scene, taking endless shots. Pei Xiuzhi was hit four or five times with the pillow every time, and Chi Jingyuan also became interested and hugged her chest. , while tapping his fingers on his arms and counting from behind the monitor:

"57, 58..."

"68, 69..."

This woman is really durable.

"OK, passed, good!"

Just when the number was about to reach three digits, the first scene since the filming was finally over. The next scene was shot at this venue. It was still the scene of Chi Enzhuo being beaten by his aunt, but this time Instead of using a pillow, he threw a small bowl of rice directly from behind and hit her on the head when she went out...

The difficulty of this scene is not low, because after the smashing, there is a close-up of facial expressions, and it is necessary to show the feeling of Chi Enzhuo's accumulated emotions exploding.

And it’s not very easy to shoot. Although the shot of the porcelain bowl falling to the ground was shot separately, and the bowl that hit the person was a special bowl, and it wouldn’t hurt if it hit the head, but every time Bae Suzy was hit, her rice would fall on her head. After NG, she still needs an assistant to come up quickly and help her clean up...

But then Pei Xiuzhi seemed to be really worn out. Just when Chi Jingyuan was thinking about how many times she would be hit before she would feel satisfied, she actually passed it without taking two shots. In the camera In the close-up, Pei Xiuzhi, who plays Chi Eun-joo, has red eyes and tears in the corners of her eyes. The feeling of grievance bursting out is really on point.

"very good!"

Following the PD's happy announcement, the field staff quickly rushed in and began to arrange things for the transition, while Chi Jingyuan stood outside, looking at Pei Xiuzhi not far away with some surprise.

Such great progress?

As if sensing Chi Jingyuan's gaze, Pei Xiuzhi, who was having the rice removed from her hair by an assistant, turned to look over.

The woman with a pair of eyes, a head full of white rice, and some stains on her forehead and cheeks, looked very embarrassed, but she made a scissor hand gesture and smiled suddenly.
