The national goddess of Korean entertainment

Sometimes, hard work doesn't necessarily mean success.

The parade on July 7st and the signature petition afterward did not work at all.The new film quota system is still implemented as scheduled.

On July 7, the major crews resumed normal shooting, and everything seemed to be back on track.

Park Chan-wook, who only returned to the Busan filming scene in the afternoon, looked tired, and seemed a little sluggish no matter how he looked.

"Brother drank all night last night, you all pay attention, don't bump into the muzzle of the gun!" The assistant director muttered softly, and then clicked his tongue: "They are all great directors, if I can drink with brother and the others one day ,Enough……"

It is conceivable what kind of people were at the banquet yesterday, a group of big directors, after drinking too much, they might roll all over the floor like Da Zhong and the others, crying bitterly, right?

Thinking about this, Xu Zhiyuan's heart became heavy.

Rain was also in a bad mood. Although he didn't say anything, the bright smile on his face disappeared.

Xu Zhiyuan really wanted to comfort him, but didn't know where to start. After a long time, she muttered: "Actually, things won't change at all—whether you come or not, it's the same!"

Rain couldn't help laughing, "Perhaps, not being present yesterday is the biggest regret in my life..." Seeing that Xu Zhiyuan still wanted to comfort him, he laughed, rubbed Xu Zhiyuan's hair, and stood up with a smile, "No matter what, the matter It’s over! Looking at the future is the most important thing! Jiwon, brother wants to open the American market and become a world superstar—isn’t this goal great?!”

"Great!" Jumping up, Xu Zhiyuan looked at his firm eyes and smiled too.

In fact, she didn't need to comfort her at all. From an ordinary boy to a popular idol in Asia, Rain has experienced far more than she imagined.

Standing in front of her was a real man, not the teenagers she had known before.

The shooting went on as usual, and the atmosphere on the set seemed to be the same as before, but Xu Zhiyuan still felt sensitively that something was different.

But she didn't say this kind of thing, she just laughed more than usual, was more active on the set, and made everyone around her laugh, so she would be satisfied-really, she likes that there are people everywhere on the set That feeling of laughter.

Since the announcement of the adjustment of the film quota system, the Korean film market seems to be dominated by American blockbusters.First there was "Disc 3" and then "Poseidon", "Superman Returns" and "X-Men 3". For nine weeks, the box office chart of Korean movies was firmly occupied by American blockbusters.

On July 7th, "Pirates of the Caribbean 6" hit wildly. For a whole week, it ignited the enthusiasm of moviegoers. Before a week, it is already conceivable that this blockbuster will win the box office championship in one fell swoop.

It is at this time that the new film "Korean Peninsula" by the great director Kang Woo-suk is about to be released.

Kang Youshuo is both a director and a producer. As a director, he has directed films such as "Enemy of the People" and "Silmido Island"; as a producer, he has such masterpieces as "Volcano High School" and "Drunken Painting Fairy".

As a director, Kang Youshuo has always been a low-key person, and even has the title of "Great Director of Low-Cost Production".He also kept a low profile when filming "Korean Peninsula".

Prior to this, although a dedicated movie promotion website was established, all the promotion was low-key.

But the world is so strange sometimes. Although "Korean Peninsula" did not carry out much publicity activities, but on June 6th, after the German World Cup group match, after the South Korean team failed to break through the group line, the official "Korean Peninsula" Website traffic suddenly ushered in a blowout.

Many netizens left messages on the website: "Long live the Republic of Korea!"

It seemed that all of a sudden, the fans found an outlet for their emotions.The originally low-key "Korean Peninsula" immediately became well-known.

And now, all filmmakers pin their hopes of defending the dignity of Korean local films on the film "Korean Peninsula".

It is said that peers taboo, but sometimes, peers are the strongest backing.

As early as the 11th, Park Chan-wook had already said, "I invite everyone to watch a movie together!"

On the 12th, all members rushed back to Seoul from Busan, and on the 13th, all members attended the premiere of "Korean Peninsula".

Obviously, like them, there are many directors and actors who want to support "Korean Peninsula". Although there are not thousands of people like the previous parade, there are still many big names present.

The premiere of "Korean Peninsula" is like a small Blue Dragon Awards or Daejong Awards show, with many stars gathering and attracting the attention of countless media.

Walking on the red carpet with Rain, what was questioned was not the scandal between the two, but Rain's absence before.

"I'm sorry! Today is the premiere of "Korean Peninsula". I think everyone should pay more attention to that movie! It's a great movie, please support it!" Smiling and waving, Xu Zhiyuan walked into Rain with a stiff smile cinema.

He said he didn't care anymore, but in fact he still couldn't let go, right?

Even when watching the movie, Rain's mood was not very good, and it didn't get better until the movie was played for a little while.Seeing him relax, Xu Zhiyuan also felt at ease, and devoted herself to the movie.

"Korean Peninsula" actually refers to the "Korean Peninsula." This is also a big-budget film that tells a story that takes place in a virtual future.

Because of the railway construction problem, Japan and South Korea have continued to dispute over the treaty signed in 1907. Historians have tried to prove that the jade seal on the contract is not real, and want to overturn the contract signed at that time, so imagine when the contract was signed 100 years ago what happened.

The modern and ancient scenes are skillfully interspersed, the shooting techniques are novel, and the imagination is rich, and this theme can be said to subtly resonate with the previous "Dokdo issue".It is precisely for this reason that once the film was screened, it immediately became a social topic.

This week, "Korean Peninsula" became a big winner, and it was already the box office champion with pre-sale tickets from the 13th to 19th. By the 19th, it successfully defeated "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" and became the box office champion.

This is a wonderful turnaround for Korean movies after losing for ten weeks in a row. This victory has given the Korean movie industry a shot in the arm and swept away the gloomy atmosphere before.

In the following week, "Korean Banniao" lost to "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" with a slight disadvantage. At the same time, the Korean film market ushered in "Han River Monster", the number one Korean production.

Although she had walked the red carpet in Cannes before, Xu Zhiyuan was still very nervous on the 27th red carpet.

"Brother Da Zhong, what should I do if some anti food and water come over? Well, should I bring more clothes?" She just finished asking, and Jin Dazhong had already raised the bag, without saying a word, just staring at her.

Well, she asked too much, her manager was very thoughtful.

But, what does it mean to be more serious?

Covering her mouth, she snickered, and when she got off the rented extended Lincoln, Xu Zhiyuan took Jin Dazhong's hand, and naturally took his arm when he wanted to retreat, "Brother Dazhong, it's done." We walked the red carpet together."

"This way—isn't it good!" Jin Dazhong was a little nervous.

As a manager, no one would really accompany an artist on the red carpet. He said it was just a joke.

The red carpet only belongs to the dazzling stars, and managers like them are just people who hide behind the stars. Even if they are usually strong and suppress the artists, they still have to back down at this time.

"What's wrong? Brother Da Zhong, if it wasn't for you, there wouldn't be this red carpet—who else is the most qualified to accompany me on the red carpet?!"

Kim Dae-jong took a deep breath and didn't flinch any more, but took Xu Zhiyuan's hand and walked slowly onto the red carpet.

The moment he stepped onto the red carpet, he unconsciously let out a low sigh.

Xu Zhiyuan turned her head to the side, looked at his complicated face, and smiled unconsciously.

On both sides of the red carpet, there were countless fans standing in the aisle, but at a glance, no one was holding her support board.

Despite this, Xu Zhiyuan still maintained a bright smile, waved her hand, walked two steps and stopped one step, and let the media reporters take pictures.

"Let, let let..."

When she stopped in the middle of the red carpet, there was a commotion in the crowd. Several young girls squeezed out from the crowd, panting, before standing still, they hurriedly raised the cardboard in their hands.

"Zhiyuanxi, Zhifan will always support you!"

Because of the commotion, Xu Zhiyuan turned her head and looked over, seeing the writing on the cardboard, she immediately smiled, turned her head and said a few words to Kim Dae-jong, and she walked to the isolation zone.

"Be a national goddess who is close to the people!"

These are the original words of Jin Dazhong, but the reason why she is so affectionate is not because of Da Zhong's words.

Among the fans who squeezed over was Li Meican, the president of her fan club. To be honest, Xu Zhiyuan felt a little unfamiliar with this girl who was two years younger than her.

Before she got to the isolation zone, she was already smiling and waving, "Hi, Mei Canxi!"

As soon as her words fell, there was a sudden commotion behind the isolation zone. People who were close to the isolation zone swarmed forward like a swarm, pushing and crowding. The row was so crowded that it fell down.

Li Meican was petite, and when the people behind her pushed her, she fell to the ground at once, but those people didn't back up because of Li Meican's fall, and they kept pushing forward, completely ignoring whether they would step on the fallen person.

When Li Meican fell, Xu Zhiyuan's footsteps paused slightly, but only for a moment, she rushed forward.

"Stand back!" Shouting loudly, she hugged Li Meican, and before she could pull Li Meican up, she felt a pain in her hand, and she didn't know who stepped on her finger.

"Back!" She yelled sharply, gritted her teeth, and hugged Li Meican reluctantly.

At the same time, the security guards who rushed over half a beat later stopped the spectators rushing forward, shouted to stop the aggressive young people, and helped the fallen people.

"Zhiyuan xi, your hand..." Li Meican exclaimed, instead of checking her injuries, she just held Xu Zhiyuan's hand and was about to cry.

Looking down at the slightly swollen middle finger, Xu Zhiyuan smiled, "It's okay, how is Mi Chanxi? Is she injured? I don't want my number one fan to be hurt."

Tears welled up all at once, Li Meican shook her head, but couldn't speak.

Screams came from the crowd who were prevented from rushing forward: "Did you see clearly? Is it really TVXQ?!"

"No, I heard it's sj... is it a lie? What are they doing here?!"

"Who lied to you! I really saw Brother Zaizhong..."

Hearing those commotions, Xu Zhiyuan couldn't help rolling her eyelids.

These guys, why not be so high-profile!I knew that a group of beautiful men would not have good things together.

"Meichanxi, you can see Jaejoong, aren't you very happy?"

She teased Li Meican, but Li Meican just shook her head, "I'm sorry, Zhiyuanxi, it was all because of my carelessness, otherwise you wouldn't have been stepped on—I, I..."

"It's not pretty to cry like this!" Xu Zhiyuan didn't know how to coax others, and the movement of raising her hand to wipe Li Meican's tears seemed very clumsy, "Meichanxi, you are not handsome like this!"

"Sister Zhiyuan!" Looking up at her, Li Meican smiled, but immediately shed two tears. Wiping her tears, she said loudly, "I swear, I will be a smart fan all my life!"

"It's good to swear..." Xu Zhiyuan laughed, but still responded loudly: "Okay! It's my honor!"

With a bright smile, Li Meican turned her head and gestured to her companion. The girl who had just put down the camera on the other end also waved and cheered.

It's just that their cheers were so small, mixed with screams, it was completely inconspicuous.

Xu Zhiyuan turned her head and looked at the group of people walking on the red carpet, and couldn't help raising her eyebrows.

These guys, how about walking the red carpet dressed like that!

Although it is not considered a debut, it is the first time to participate in the premiere at the Daehan Theater. Xu Zhiyuan sent out all the ten tickets for the premiere, and people like Lim Yoona, Kim Taeyeon, Kim Jaejoong, and Choi Siwon naturally wanted to give away Yes, and Kim Soo Hyun and the others also gave them away.

It's just that she didn't expect sm's group to be so high-profile.Actually, I don’t blame them. The group of seven people walking on the red carpet now, besides Lim Yoon-ah and Kim Taeyeon who are very well-dressed, Kim Jae-joong, Park Yoo-chun, Choi Si-won and Kim Hee-chul who have already debuted also brought a Han Geng, all wearing baseballs Cap, very casual.

Originally, the five men and two women planned to walk through the audience aisle, but unexpectedly, they were spotted by sharp-eyed fans and had to walk on the red carpet.

SJ is okay, it just became popular just now, but Kim Jaejoong and Park Yoochun, the two TVXQ members, immediately exploded the scene as soon as they appeared on the red carpet.

This was an unexpected surprise. Countless fans screamed and cheered on both sides of the red carpet, yelling "Brother" loudly, and started rushing forward again.

Apparently having heard what happened just now, Kim Jaejoong walked to the middle of the red carpet and solemnly bowed to the audience on both sides, "Thank you for your kindness, but please pay attention to the safety of yourself and those around you... Sorry, today is "Han River Monster" Premiere of ! We're here to support friends, no interviews..."

Smiling and nodding, he turned back to join his companions, greeted Xu Zhiyuan again, and walked across the red carpet in a hurry, not intending to stay.

"Let's take a photo together! Kim Jaejoong, Choi Siwon, you all came to support Seo Jiwon, right?!"

After being called several times by reporters, they finally stopped and took a group photo together.Kim Taeyeon supported Xu Zhiyuan's shoulders, although she was smiling, she still whispered: "I saw those few people I saw at your house last time!"

Kim Soo Hyun and the others are here!

After taking the photo, Xu Zhiyuan turned around and whispered a few words to Kim Dae-jong, Kim Dae-jong turned around immediately, and when Xu Zhiyuan left his name in front of the signature board, Kim Dae-jong just led Kim Soo-hyun and the three over.

Not on the red carpet, but from the staff aisle.Xu Zhiyuan came forward and didn't say a word, just in time to see a reporter looking at her, she greeted immediately: "Hey, can you take a photo for us, these few are also my good friends."

With Kim Soo Hyun on her arm, she faced the camera, smiling brightly, and raised two fingers in a very mean way.

In fact, this photo will not be put in the newspaper at all, she knows it very well.Fortunately, the reporter was also enthusiastic, and promised to send them a piece of paper, which can be regarded as a souvenir.

The small episode on the red carpet spread quickly. At the beginning of the premiere, Bong Joon-ho even joked, "A few children brought a youthful atmosphere to the premiere today."

However, that's all. Maybe tomorrow's newspaper will show the group of SM Seven occupying the attention of fans, but tonight, all the light belongs to the movie "Han River Monster".

Even after watching it for the second time, Xu Zhiyuan still thinks this movie is really great, every one of them is great in the movie!

Even though the monster was so vivid and lifelike that it caused the audience to exclaim from time to time, but from the beginning to the end, the most exciting and touching thing was the performance of the actors.

At the end of the movie, the audience stood up and gave thunderous applause.The chief creators sitting in the front row stood up, turned around and thanked the audience.

In Cannes, they faced the audience like this, but this time, they faced the local audience, which will be their strongest backing in the future.

For a whole week, "Han River Monster" occupied all the topic lists, just like Kim Heechul said, "It was completely killed by you! It's too tragic, the debut novel was crushed by monsters."

SJ's debut novel "Flower Boy Horror" was released on the 26th, just like an egg hit a rock, the Titanic hit an iceberg, and was mercilessly crushed by "Han River Monster".

There is no doubt that this will be the box office champion of the new week, not only "The Horror Affair of Flower Boys", but even "Korean Peninsula" and "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" are also overwhelmingly suppressed.

Although there were some malicious comments, they were submerged in a flood of comments, not only the movie, but also the actors were praised and praised.

Even a newcomer like Xu Zhiyuan has become the new darling of film critics, defeating the previous suspicions of the media in one fell swoop:

If the biggest discovery in the film industry in 05 was Lee Jun Ki, then in 06, Xu Zhiyuan was undoubtedly the surprise.Her performance is natural, natural without any sense of tweaking.In the movie, some of the most impressive scenes are the scenes where Xu Zhiyuan faces the monster.You look into her fearful yet strong eyes and think: Ah, this really doesn't look like a newcomer.

This is a contagious actor, not just a child actor, and when she smiles brightly for the camera, you smile with her.I think this is the most important condition to be an actor.

There were more than one film review like this, and suddenly, the voice that Seo Ji-won originally thought was based entirely on the gossip disappeared.

It was as if the loft in the sky of a flat building suddenly had a cornerstone. Xu Zhiyuan became a newcomer actor that fans liked overnight, and some media even gave her a title: "National Daughter".

However, no one in this world will ever be loved by everyone. Even if Xu Zhiyuan became the daughter of the nation, some people still hate her, and even use friendship with her as an excuse to attack others.

"I want to hug a girl's thigh! I can't even stand up!" On the 28th, when SJ was doing a live performance on a kbs show, Qiang Ren suddenly fell down. Anti complained wantonly.

On the evening of the 29th, SJ who was performing at the MBC Music Center was attacked by a large number of anti fans outside the center because of a failed performance.

In a blink of an eye, on August 8th, at Li Donghai's father's funeral, antifan appeared at the funeral wearing a red dress, and applauded and cheered presumptuously during the funeral, which almost caused a physical conflict between all members of SJ and antifan.

All of a sudden, the Korean entertainment industry fell into an inexplicable atmosphere, and there was a sense of tension between celebrities and anti fans.

The storm will strike at any time...
