After meeting and discussing with Bong Joon-ho and Song Kang-ho, the filming plan for the movie "Parasite" has been officially launched.
At present, except for Song Kanghao, who will play the male lead role as the father of a family of four, no suitable candidates have been decided for other roles.
According to Bong Joon-ho, he wanted to choose actors whose appearance is close to real life.
After hearing this, Song Kanghao said half-jokingly: "Director Nim, I am also an idol actor, okay?"
Li Chenghao echoed: "Our actor Song is the most handsome actor in Zion Entertainment Entertainment Company."
In fact, there is no need to agree. Bong Joon-ho is not a new director. How could he not know that there are currently only two male actors in Zion Entertainment Company’s acting department, and the other one who is tied for first place is the female fan reaper Jo In-sung.
"I also participate in the actor's audition"
Bong Joon-ho generally means the same thing. Although this work is about real life themes, it is an out-and-out commercial work.
Regarding the future status of CJ Entertainment in the overseas market, especially the dream that Chairman Lee Meijing has been trying to realize for more than 20 years, since it has been handed over to Li Chenghao, Li Chenghao will certainly not be perfunctory.
November 25
The news that auditions for the movie "Parasite" have begun has become the most talked about topic in the entertainment industry of country H through repeated reports by major entertainment news media.
same day
iu held its second concert in Busan.
Although the scale this time was not as large as the first one in Seoul, it still attracted more than 20,000 fans to support the event, crowding the already small venue to the limit.
Hot search topics are constantly refreshed, including IU's clothing, style, hairstyle, makeup, and surprise interactive sessions prepared for the concert.
After the concert, iu returned to the lounge to change clothes.
When the phone was unlocked, none of the many congratulatory messages were sent by Li Chenghao, nor did he make a call to her.
He muttered a little disappointedly: "She must be busy with the movie."
What he was thinking about was that no matter how busy he was with the movie, he at least had time to send messages. He must have forgotten that he was going to have a concert in Busan today.
After walking out of the lounge, Iu called over Liu Zhimin and Ning Yizhuo. Surrounded by his sisters, his mood improved a lot. Maybe it was the effect of seeing the beautiful woman. He formed a group and the concert team set off to the dinner venue.
other side
Cheongdam-dong red velvet dormitory.
Joy excitedly said to Bae Zhuhyun: "Unnie, I'm going to audition for "Parasite" tomorrow."
Bae Zhuhyun took a bite of the fruit and said, "Our Sooyoung will definitely pass the audition."
As soon as he finished speaking, Joy's mood turned sharply: "But there are too many actors who signed up for the audition this time, and many of them are top actors. I heard that the competition ratios for two female roles are now 2600:1 and 500:1 respectively."
"How many?"
"The female lead's role is an art teacher in the play. In addition to top actresses and popular actresses, most new actors and idols have also signed up."
"Although there were not many people competing for the second role, it required playing the chaebol's wife, so almost no young actresses signed up."
Bae Zhuhyun comforted Joy: "Sooyoung, in fact, you can regard this audition as a good experience and show your best side. Even if you cannot participate in this work, you will still leave a mark for the director.
Very impressive, don’t you think?”
Joy put on a smile. When she knew the competition ratio, she actually thought that she would have no chance to participate in the show.
The reason why I wanted to talk to Bae Zhuhyun was actually because of Joy's little thoughts.
"Hasn't Ernie been in contact with President Li Chenghao recently?"
Pei Zhuhyun was stunned for a moment.
They have indeed not contacted each other during the recent period. It is not because Bae Zhuhyun sent messages to Li Chenghao but did not receive a reply, or because no one answered the phone calls.
Instead, Bae Joo Hyun was thinking about a natural way to contact Lee Sung Ho.
In addition, Bae Zhuhyun has not wanted to be idle during this period. She has been obtaining some useful information from the Internet, such as what kind of women the chaebol children are attracted to.
Joy reminded Bae Zhuhyun: "Unnie, it's not okay to do this. Although President Lee Sung-ho and IU sunbaenim are not real lovers, you have also seen the video of IU sunbaenim's Seoul concert. President Lee Sung-ho not only made the concert a dream
On the stage, he also took the initiative to interact with fans of IU seniors. This is a dangerous sign."
"Danger?"
It's obvious that Bae Zhuhyun doesn't quite understand what 'danger' means here.
Joy went straight to the topic: "Onie, let's get to know each other."
"It takes a long time to become in love?"
"People who spend a lot of time together will fall in love sooner or later. This is more terrifying than falling in love at first sight."
Bae Zhuhyun hesitated: "I also know this, so I am looking for an appropriate time."
"Ernie will accompany me to the audition tomorrow."
Bae Joo-hyun wanted to refuse, but she couldn't resist Joy's coquettishness. Thinking that there would be so many people at tomorrow's audition, and since it was a theater audition and Lee Sung-ho wouldn't be present, she agreed to Joy.
Not far apart
In the ckpink dormitory.
The three members looked at Jin Jixiu who was standing in front of the coffee table and turned around and shook their heads.
Jin Zhini pointed to Jin Zhixiu's clothes: "Unnie, is the art teacher wearing something too fashionable?"
Lisa echoed: "When I was in Thailand, most of the teachers wore casual clothes."
Park Chae-young doesn't know much about this aspect. In the profession of teacher that she knows, almost all teachers are wearing glasses and dressed casually.
"Would you like to change into a professional suit? Dress up like a high school teacher."
Jin Zhini continued to shake her head: "Don't worry, Ernie, I'll make a call."
Needless to say, all three of them knew who Jin Zhini was calling.
one minute later
The four people gathered in the living room heard Li Chenghao's voice coming from the other end of the phone: "It's no good if you call me. What do you want to do this time?"
Jin Zhini immediately explained: "Oppa, what do you mean calling is no good? I just want to care about Oppa's recent health condition."
"I'm fine. If nothing happens, I'll hang up."
Jin Zhini also understood Li Chenghao's call style and said quickly: "Oppa, I have a question for you, just one question, really."
"What?"
"What kind of clothes should the art teacher in "Parasite" wear?"
Probably guessing that it was because of Kim Ji-soo, thinking that he gave Kim Ji-soo a false tip that day and caused her to miss out on the ring reward she might get. Lee Sung-ho gave the right advice this time: "If you are a tutor in a chaebol family, at least wear formal clothes or look outstanding."
For elegant dresses, remember not to wear revealing clothes.”
"Yes, it should be like this."
Li Chenghao added another word: "But for the audition, you can dress as ordinary as possible. It is best to refer to the dress of the lower-class citizens who live semi-underground in real life."
"Yes, Oppa has got to the point. Why does it have to be a gorgeously dressed teacher? And Oppa..."
"I'm busy, hang up"
Toot toot
There was a busy tone, and Jin Zhini pouted: "This Oppa is always like this."
Park Caiying and Lisa paid attention to the important point and asked: "What should Jisoo Unnie wear for tomorrow's audition?"
After getting up, Jin Zhini greeted the members: "Let's go and take a look."
"What are you looking at?"
"It depends on how people living in semi-basements dress up in real life, but we can't bother others so presumptuously, so we go buy gifts first and ask them to help us buy the things they need."
So, at Jin Zhini's suggestion, the four members of blackpink put on hats and masks to disguise themselves and left the dormitory. Their first target was Sinlim-dong, which was not far away.
