Chapter 72: Film Evaluation
readx; In the audience, someone was discussing the plot in a whisper, it was none other than Kim Hee-cheol or Choi Si-won. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
As the members who starred in the movie for the first time, they were more excited, and Choi Si-won always showed his smile, as if he didn't care about it, and Lee Seung-hyun saw this as if he had finished watching the movie.
A film that reflects the deformed ecology of the current society through erophobia, fandom culture, and the crisis of the internet, the film's themes are so multifaceted that the combination of popular factors pursued by today's young people has made the production company ambitious to "enter the Asian market". The intellectual theme and manga-like imagination are very much in line with the theme of the 11th Bucheon International Film Festival.
Perfect!! Big return on small investment. The reason for Li Xiuman's success is definitely not accidental.
In the night, Lee Dong-hae and Kim Ki-beom were standing in a dark alley, Lee Dong-hae pulled Kim Ki-beom and whispered in his ear: "The person I'm talking about is you!" ”
Talking about how Kim Ki-beom carried out his so-called legendary events, and picking up Kim Ki-beom's tools for committing the crime, Kim Ki-beom looked terrified of being exposed.
In the night of Seoul, Kim Hee-cheol, who stayed at the top of the mountain, and Kyo-in, who wore a plaster cast on his arm, were talking about the meaning of doing these things, and both of them laughed during the argument. Like Kim Hee-cheol said, is it really that important to go to college? There should be more important things to do.
At the door of the convenience store at the foot of the mountain, Lee Dong-hae and Kim Ki-beom, who had unraveled the truth of the matter, were also talking, each holding a can of drink, and Lee Dong-hae asked, "Why do you want to do this, a model student like you?" ”
"It's just... I'm bored..."
"Will it be because of this?" Lee Dong-hae looked at Kim Ki-beom in surprise, as if he was frightened by his reason.
Well・・・・・ everyone has been worried about the college entrance examination recently, and at the beginning, such children always left some vicious messages, and anyway, they didn't know who was saying bad things about others behind their backs. Like a fool..." There seemed to be a hint of helplessness in Kim Ki-beom's tone.
"At first, I wanted to put up with it on my own, but suddenly my blog exploded in popularity. The funny thing is that no one suspects me of being a prisoner anyway. But the wonderful thing is that he suddenly became a popular person, and he was in a good mood. Kim Ki-beom explained the reason, but Lee Seung-hyun felt that it was like a reflection of this society. Aren't there so many people who are desperate to do all kinds of out-of-the-ordinary things to win attention in order to become famous?
"Because it's the first time I've gotten so much attention from others・・・・・・"
"So, so it's good to ・・・・・ blog traffic up?"
"Of course, I was in a good mood at the beginning, but after I arrived, the comments began to increase wildly, and everyone's attention became more and more, but I was a little timid." As if laughing at himself, Kim Ki-beom had a wry smile on his face.
"At first, it was just to make some pranks, but I couldn't stop in between. I'd rather tell you this and I'll feel better. In the darkness of the night, the two of them opened their hearts and explained the series of events. And Donghae is also very curious about who Kim Ki-bum throws back this time.
"Qiangren? Heeche? ”
The plot seems to be at the end, the judo club has added new members, and the girl in the dance department is Yo Li, who is preparing to make her debut, and a series of dance movements make Kim Hee Cheol stunned.
The afternoon sun pours into the classroom, and all the narration is Kim Ki-beom's voice, even though the movie repeatedly says that it is against the supremacy of appearance, in society it is the opposite. It's as if everything is calm.
The conversation between the two seems to be running through the whole movie, and at the end is interspersed with the dance part of SJ, which slowly appears with subtitles, although some people find it not fun, Lee Seung-hyun rubs his eyes, he only sees himself in the singing and dancing part, even Little.
The audience applauded, cheered, and admired endlessly, and they shouted the names of their favorite idols, and the atmosphere was unusually strong.
Director Li Quan and Li Xiuman glanced at each other, looked at the excited audience in front of them, nodded with satisfaction, and led many leading actors to walk off the stage and bow and thank them, ushering in more enthusiastic applause.
The premiere ended perfectly, followed by a Q&A session.
Lee Seung-hyun honestly followed everyone back to his seat, looking at the reporter in front of him who was crackling and taking pictures, and Qiangren next to him stiffly piled up a smile, but how funny that expression was, how funny.
"Test, test! Ah~Ah~Ah! ”
Director Li Quan took the microphone to test the volume, and after feeling that there was no problem, he looked at the reporters who were constantly taking pictures in front of him and smiled: "The movie is over, now is the time for reporters and friends to interview freely." ”
As soon as the words fell, Lee Seung-hyun saw a series of raised hands, and some reporters at the end waved their arms fiercely to show their existence.
Director Li Quan ordered a reporter casually according to the previous arrangement, although it was casual, but it was a reporter with a better relationship arranged by the company, that is, To.
"Director Li Quan, hello all the leading actors, I am a reporter from SBS TV, and my name is Zheng Yucheng."
Lee Seung-hyun also looked over when he heard the words, and saw that the man was tall, wearing an SBS work uniform, and his appearance was not handsome, but he was also a very tasteful uncle, but his baldness made him look a little funny.
Seeing this strange picture made him cover his mouth and laugh secretly.
The interview continues...
"I want to ask Lee Seung-hyun xi and Lit-the-xi!"
As soon as the words fell, whether it was the leading actors, reporters or the masses, they all looked at Lee Seung-hyun and Litt on the edge, only to see him covering his mouth in the corner and constantly shrugging his shoulders, and he was cold for a while.
Forehead!!
Lee Seung-hyun came back to his senses, glanced at everyone, stood up embarrassedly, and apologized to the reporter: "I'm sorry, it's too far away!" ”
I saw that Zheng Yucheng was not angry, laughed, touched his bare forehead, and raised his eyebrows at Lee Seung-hyun. Then he glanced back at Little, as if to blame him for his slow movements.
Only then did everyone suddenly realize that they were happy, and they applauded the reporter and praised his belly.
After a while, Lee Seung-hyun sat down and listened carefully to the other party's questions.
"May I ask Lee Seung-hyun, this time you had a car accident, and there are rumors that some members of your group have offended people, I don't know if it's true?"
Reporter Jung Woo-sung held a notebook and looked at Lee Seung-hyun with bright eyes to ask questions.
Many reporters were in good spirits, and this question asked the essentials, and the parties had not been interviewed before, so the car accident did not get much benefit, and if they could dig something out of the mouth of this half-grown boy, then they could go back to the business.
Even those professional film critics pricked up their ears and listened, as if no one was paying attention to the movie, and they were all waiting for Lee Seung-hyun's next words. And Li Xiuman next to him frowned, he had heard such rumors before, but he didn't expect that someone would make trouble at the premiere.
Looking at everyone's expectant eyes, Lee Seung-hyun groaned slightly, but this image has never appeared in this world, so he also answered after thinking about it.
"Our company has already stated this matter, and this is the release of the movie!"
Everyone was disappointed, they thought that this might be true, but they didn't expect to be pushed away by the other party, Li Xiuman nodded as if pleased. Even Little breathed a sigh of relief.
But when you think about it, isn't it more valuable to report on yourself in this way?
I can't help but be full of excitement and want to do a big job.
The audience didn't know the truth here, they only knew that the victims of that car accident were Lee Seung-hyun and Little, and Lee Seung-hyun, who only had a few figures in the movie this time, disappointed them a little.
There are even many girls who have fallen in love with this quiet boy, so they applaud harder, and the whole studio was filled with applause for a while.
The reporters asked questions one after another, scrambling SJ's questions, and most of them were replaced by smiles, which the old-timers taught him. It is also the experience of the company's predecessors.
Li Xiuman looked at the children in front of him, then at the reporters in front of him who looked like hungry wolves, and sighed.
Throughout the premiere, the interviewers of the sudden SJ were presented, and the leading actors received various praises during the period. Although they are all painless and itchy problems, the firepower has always been focused on Jin Xiche's body.
Lee Seung-hyun touched the sweat on his forehead, although he thought that the creation of this image would cause a strong reaction, but the posture of these reporters in front of him who ate meat and did not spit out bones was also a little unbearable.
The premiere closed in a frenzied atmosphere, and it was a perfect premiere. It is also the opening game of your own company・・・・・・・・・・
And this night, the movie "Flower Boy" has entered the whole of Seoul and is sweeping the country with a crushing attitude. Regardless of the ending, he made the film known.
The next day.
The news is overwhelming about the "Flower Boy Horror Incident", and in the naver search ranking 'SJ enters the film industry' suddenly jumped to the first place, leaving the second place far behind.
Major newspapers and TV stations reported on the incident frantically, and for a time the whole of South Korea was shrouded in the light of SJ. And many more people are questioning the film, as if everything is isolated from the circle.
The reason for the film's poor performance may be closely related to the fact that it is considered an idol film by the audience, the number of theaters has only reached 100, and the release schedule is too early. ’
This is the first work of **picture, and the company will continue to work hard in the future. ’
This is the first film to be filmed since the establishment of **Pictures, a subsidiary of South Korean entertainment giant ** Entertainment, which includes popular artists such as BOA, TVXQ and Kangta, in collaboration with PolluxPictures, a cutting-edge production company in Chungmuro. Park Yeon-sun, the screenwriter of "My Savage Teacher", was invited to write the script, and Lee Quan, the assistant director of "Female High Monster 2", directed and produced the "chungeoram" of the box office champion "Monster" in '06 to serve as rationing. Such fandom culture is rarely seen in Korean and even Asian film circles.
Reflecting on the dysmorphic ecology of the current society through erophobia, fandom culture and the crisis of the internet, the film's themes are so multifaceted that the combination of popular factors pursued by the young people of 2007 has made the production company ambitious to "enter the Asian market". Campus mystery suspense comedies are commonplace, and the imagination is easy to think of 2006's "Sweet Horror Lovers"; Rather than knowing who is behind the scenes, curiosity about who the next victim will be reminds viewers of Hollywood's famous soap opera-style horror movie "Scream" series.
The creativity of grafting is embellished with some ethnic characteristics, and there seem to be signs of a bubble bursting in today's Korean film industry, like a young man with a thin body (script) and a sound (exciting and controversial plots, sophisticated and fancy features and lace, etc.), supported by a group of middle-aged directors. But how far can Korean films go under the open censorship and classification system when they lose the audience's support for sensationalism? ’
