Chapter 88 After the premiere
...
After the premiere of "Wolf and Dog Time", the entire crew did not fluctuate much, as if it was just a trivial thing.
Even when the second episode was played, Lee Jun-ki and Lin Youmin had already left the country one after another, but they failed to see a sharp increase in the ratings like "Fantasy Couple", and the ratings remained at an average of 12% in the second episode.
As the New Year approaches, "Wolf and Dog Time" has finished its first four episodes, with the fourth episode rating of 16%.
Although it is already very good, it is still a certain gap with people's ideal expectations.
The collaboration between two popular actors Lin Youmin and Lee Jun-ki may not necessarily result in a result of 1+1 greater than 2.
The plot is old-fashioned, the rhythm is dragging, the lines are dull, and there are too many background descriptions. This is the evaluation of most media and audiences. In addition to the acting skills of Lee Jun-ki and Lin Youmin, the whole TV series looks like nothing is available.
Even the heroine, Nam Sangmi, cannot escape the fate of being criticized and snoring.
He looks average, has a rustic look, has rough acting skills, and has no temperament at all.
On the Internet, many netizens also joked that Nam Sangmi's only function is to arouse the crazy jealousy of a group of female fans and highlight how outstanding the acting skills of Lee Jun Ki and Lin Youmin are.
To be honest, this TV series has made the majority of expectations, and the Korean drama fans who worked with Lee Jun Ki were a little disappointed. Their acting skills were shown, but unfortunately the theme really couldn't arouse the interest of ordinary audiences.
This is not like a Korean drama at all, although it has most of the bloody factors of Korean dramas, such as the male and male second who likes the same heroine, car accident, amnesia, revenge...
Ignoring the criticism from the outside world, director Jin Zhenmin still filmed his own drama slowly, and even gave the crew a holiday because of the arrival of the Spring Festival. From this point of view, at least Jin Zhenmin is a good director.
The starring actors such as Lin Youmin, Lee Jun-ki were not too anxious. A 16-episode mini-series uses four-episode scenes to lay the plot. I'm afraid only Han Ji-hoon and Yoo Yong can do it like this!
The one behind is the most exciting! Especially Lee Jun-ki lost his memory and went from being an important member of the National Information Agency to a black man.
The heir showed his second personality, while Jiang Minji, played by Lin Youmin, began to fully demonstrate his "loyal dog" personality. When facing a choice, the TV series came to its first climax.
……………………
The Spring Festival holiday does not belong to Lin Youmin. He has to take time to walk on a few shows these days, take photos of magazines and pictorials, and have a more important final audition for the "War of Money".
Not to mention how busy Lin Youmin is, Zheng Xiujing also left the crew and did not stick to him all day long. Because of the Spring Festival, her parents who she finally saw once finally came back!
"Why are so many people saying that 'Wolf and Dog Time' is not very good... I think it's good! Sister, what do you think?" Zheng Xiujing sat in front of the computer and asked Zheng Xiuyan angrily on the sofa.
Jung Soo-yeon leaned on the sofa in a daze, covered with a thin blanket, her whole body was drowsy, her eyelids didn't even have the strength to open them, so she turned around and didn't answer.
Zheng Xiujing stood up with some pain and walked over to help her sister tuck the quilt.
During this period, the intensive and high-intensity training that was preparing to debut made her exhausted.
Jessica Jung is already weak, and her arrogant and unyielding personality is naturally 200% serious and hard-working when practicing. More than a year ago, she had conducted such arduous training, and that time was the preparation for debut by Zhixi of the Heaven.
After losing the election, Jessica Jung, who had been tense, fell seriously ill and recovered after a month of rest.
Because of this, this time, she doesn't want to lose to anyone in the same girl group project. This is her self-esteem and her pride.
Zheng Xiujing sighed heavily, rubbed her unwashed hair, and suddenly she had no expectations for her debut that she had always been envious.
It’s so hard for a trainee, is it even more tired? I heard that I have to audition and take photos during the Spring Festival, hey...
...
For the audition of "The War of Money" a few days later, Lin Youmin hid in the cafe with a stack of original comics, studied carefully, and understood the background of the story, the character's personality, and the conflicts inside.
During the Chinese New Year, many people have left Seoul and returned to their hometown to worship their ancestors. Seoul, which used to be busy, seemed to have been quiet in the past few days.
The Spring Festival in South Korea is not as lively as in China. The streets are full of local people. On the contrary, the traffic is much less than usual. Young men and women who love shopping and entertainment can only go to worship their ancestors or stay at home with their elders.
Even this cafe, which is often crowded, is only a few people sitting in a scattered manner, less than one-third of them.
Lin Youmin is more satisfied with this environment. He has fewer people so he will not be disturbed...
How can the director agree that he will play the male lead? As the male lead, an actor who has just acted in a TV series and has a tense schedule, no director who is a little cautious will take such a big risk. Doing such a thing is just the running-in of the entire crew and the tacit understanding of the starring actor, he can not be able to do it in a short time, and his physical and mental state are not in the peak state!
Unless the starring actor is so popular or acting that the director can't refuse, it's a pity that Lin Youmin is not yet.
Before Lin Youmin could think clearly, a clear female voice broke Lin Youmin's imagination.
"Sorry! I can't do it! I won't agree with your request, nor do I do a bar resident singer, nor will I go there to work!"
"Park Sun-yingxi, you have to know that the money you borrowed is not a small amount!"
"I know, Mr. Kim Jae-eun, I will return the money to you on time!"
The girl named Park Sun-young raised her tone and her tone seemed a little quick.
"Sorry, according to our understanding, you have no formal job and no mortgage. With your current situation, you cannot repay this debt for the time being..."
"You don't have to worry about this. Whether it is interest or principal, I will pay it back on time!"
The girl's voice was very stubborn, but she could hear the smell of lack of confidence.
"Park Sun-yingxi, we are also businessmen, so we pay attention to rules. It is difficult for me to do this. Although it is a little messy in our place, there will be no problems. Moreover, your working time can be offset..."
The man's voice was a little blurry, and Lin Youmin didn't hear clearly what they were saying.
Looking at the "war of money" in his hand, Lin Youmin frowned.
Chapter completed!
