"The crew will wrap up tomorrow. Jingyuan won't stop contacting Noona after finishing filming, right?"
While taking a break, Park Shin Hye sat next to Chi Jingyuan, staring at him with a smile, and said jokingly at the same time.
Today is December 4th, more than ten days have passed since the Mama Awards Ceremony held on November 22nd. After Chi Jingyuan returned to the crew on the 23rd, he resumed his previously arduous but very happy filming life.
Today is the ninth week of broadcasting, and episodes 17 and 18 will be broadcast today and tomorrow.
The ratings have climbed to 27% since last week. This is a figure that can surprise any TV station and make a lot of money from advertising fees and copyrights.
And if the trend of the ratings curve does not change much, this week's two episodes should hopefully break through the 30 mark, and the finale of the last two episodes a week later will definitely reach another peak.
The drama "The Heirs" has now become one of the focuses of discussion throughout the peninsula and even half of Asia. It has caused strong repercussions in a wide range of regions. Several starring announcements have been received, and there are a lot of unsolicited scripts. Joining a brokerage company is the most advantageous proof.
This is also one of the biggest features and advantages of this drama. Compared with the two popular dramas previously broadcast by SBS, "I Hear Your Voice" and "The Lord's Sun", its ratings are not overwhelmingly ahead, but the discussion is. Especially in many other countries, the popularity and popularity far exceed the previous two. In Xia Kingdom and Southeast Asia, the popularity and popularity of "The Heirs" during this period are almost the same.
Chi Jingyuan knew that his schedule in Xia Kingdom and Southeast Asia was almost full. The remuneration there was more than one level higher than that on the peninsula. The company had been eagerly waiting for the crew to finish filming. After the filming is completed tomorrow, he will be the first Time to rush over there and start the activity.
Other TV dramas at the same time as it were all completely submerged by Successor without causing any splash.
The MBC TV series "Medical Team" starring Kwon Sang Woo, Joo Ji Hoon, and Jung Ryeo Won, which was broadcast on the same day, had the highest ratings of 7.3% for its first broadcast. Last week, it dropped to 5.1%, which can be said to be terrible.
As for the KBS TV drama "Beautiful Man" starring Jang Eun Suk and IU Lee Ji Eun, which was broadcast on November 20, Ji Kyung Won and the others are also one of their competitors at the same time.
Both Jang Keun Suk and IU have experienced more or less bad things and disturbances before, and their careers have been greatly affected, so this drama meets the audience with the ambition of the two leading actors.
It's a pity that it still had the highest ratings of 6.3% for the first broadcast. After that, it continued to decline in an unstoppable trend. Now it has dropped to almost 3% in the third week of broadcasting.
The important thing is that the online reviews of this drama are also full of criticism. Both leading actors have been ruthlessly complained by many viewers, who are not satisfied with their performance.
According to this trend, it is not impossible for "Pretty Man" to fall to 2% or even 1%.
This is not good news for iu, whose career has just rejuvenated...
As for "The Heirs", the actors have worked well together, and the acting skills of several main actors are also guaranteed. And because of the soaring ratings and soaring popularity, everyone is in a very good mood. Thanks to various reasons, the filming during this period was very good. It went smoothly, and the progress exceeded expectations. It is very gratifying. The director announced the day before yesterday that the filming completion date of the crew is November 5th.
In fact, the daily shooting tasks in the last two days have been very relaxed, and there is obviously a lot more rest time. During the interval, several leading actors who have already become familiar with each other on the set often get together to chat and joke, which makes each other closer and aggravates the pain. Contact each other at once, and stabilize the relationship and connections between each other after the deal is finalized.
"We are a brother-sister relationship that has been widely rumored to have fallen in love over a drama. Did Noona have the heart to cut off contact after the filming was completed?"
After hearing this, Chi Jingyuan tilted his head, his tone was a little low, and his face was full of sadness.
"Hahaha……"
Park Shin Hye couldn't help covering her mouth and burst out laughing.
He patted him lightly and said, "That's what the outside world says. It's not like you don't know the real situation... But if Jingyuan doesn't mind the relationship between brother and sister, then of course Nu Na doesn't mind either."
"Jinjia?"
Chi Jingyuan looked at each other expectantly, and Park Shin Hye looked at him not to be outdone, but after a few seconds, the two laughed together.
"Forget it, Jingyuan, I already know what kind of personality you have, and Xiujing has already made it so obvious. We have such a good relationship now, so of course I can't compete with her... By the way, where is Xiujing? Why aren't you here today? Stay next to you?"
Park Shin Hye shook her head, her chubby face wrinkled vividly. At the end of her speech, she turned her head and glanced back and forth. She saw Jung Soo Jung staying at her seat and looking at her phone, instead of running away as soon as the break came. Go next to Chi Jingyuan.
"That's such a pity..."
Chi Jingyuan shrugged and joked, and then glanced in Zheng Xiujing's direction: "Who knows, there might be something wrong."
He did not deny that the relationship between the two was unusual. After all, the crew members were not fools. Park Shin Hye was a very familiar friend, and at the same time, people in the industry would not disclose it to the outside world.
"What are you talking about so happily?"
At this time, Kim Woo Bin also came over, pulled out the chair and sat down in a familiar manner. After a while, Kim Ji Won saw it and also came over. The leading actors of "The Heirs" were all here now.
There are many actors in this TV series, but they are the only ones we really got to know each other well during the filming, and are considered friends.
As for the main actors such as Park Shin Hye and Kim Woo Bin, and other idol actors such as Kang Min Hyuk, so far they have just smiled and said hello. There is a clear line in the middle and there is no too much contact.
The same goes for Jung Soo-jung. Among the leading actors, only Park Shin-hye cares about her quite well, and the other ones can only have okay interactions with her. And if it weren't for Ji Kyung-won, they would probably treat Jung Soo-jung the same way they treat other idol actors. You can still keep your distance.
This is the status quo of the chain of contempt in the Korean entertainment industry. The hierarchy between actors is very clear. Professional actors cannot look down on those who have switched careers from idols to actors.
It's not just because of their acting skills and lines that people can't recognize, this is actually just a pretty small aspect.
It’s more because the competition in the film and television industry is already fierce, and it’s even more disgusting for idols in the music industry to get involved.
Therefore, for most idols, the road to becoming an actor is really not easy. In addition to the difficulty in receiving good roles, in addition to the need to hone acting skills through reading, various external factors are also important reasons.
Ji Kyung-won is an exception. Because he is not the leading actor and has squeezed out Lee Min-ho to expose his connections and contacts, he is the focus of everyone's attention as soon as he joins the crew. Both the actors and the creators are very enthusiastic about him. Those skills were of no use to him.
But Chi Jingyuan is very familiar with these situations.
"Let's talk about whether we will cut off contact after filming is completed and see when we can get together again in the future."
Park Shin Hye smiled and waved hello to the two of them and started chatting.
"Of course not."
"I have no problem with having a party. It can be done at any time as long as there is no announcement."
"Nai, so do I. I'm just afraid that Jingyuan will be too busy and won't be able to come."
"No matter how busy I am, will Yu Bin be busy? I heard that the announcement has been made for next year?"
"Yeah, is it appropriate for you, the most popular leading actor, to say this to me?"
"…………"
…………
Because of the ratings and the fact that the filming tasks have become much easier recently, the atmosphere of the entire crew is very harmonious. Everyone is smiling and friendly. Even if he is angry, the director will not curse like before, he will just laugh. Let the actors do it all over again.
It seems that everyone enjoyed the last time of the crew.
There are not many scenes left. Not only do I have a lot of rest time during filming, but I also finish work much earlier every day.
After the crew announced the end of work, everyone saluted each other and said goodbye. Chi Jingyuan followed Park Jae-hyun after everyone else said hello, preparing to go to the parking lot and take the car back.
He didn't take two steps when he felt a gaze staring at his back. When a name came to his mind, he turned his head and saw that it was exactly what he expected.
