"Ladies and gentlemen! Ladies and gentlemen! "The reporter's voice on the TV was very 'excited', and the camera was shaking, and it could be seen from the screen that the scene was already 'chaotic' and 'chaotic', and after a while, the reporter held the microphone and spoke in the camera again: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am now in the theater of the Good Morning Shopping City of Dongdaemun, Seoul, and the crowding caused by the hit screening of "The King's Man" is still continuing, but now...... I'm sorry, but I want to say that we found an audience that surprised everyone at the scene! Remember, I'm journalist Chung Dae-joon, and remember this day, it's the first time in the history of South Korea! ”
With his 'excited' words, the camera began to move to the side, gradually adjusting the focal length of the lens, blurring for a while, and when it became clear again, everyone in front of the TV opened their mouths wide!
In the center of the camera, a middle-aged man surrounded by a crowd is smiling and waving to the people around him in the deafening noise. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
At the same time, the subtitles lit up.
President Roh Moo-hyun appeared at the scene of "The King's Man"!
"Oppa! Come and see! "Biting on the 'stick' and 'stick' candy, Krystal, who was chatting and watching TV, suddenly called out in a 'excited' mood.
"What's wrong?" Hearing the cry of the little girl, the men and women upstairs and downstairs ran out one after another and gathered in front of the TV.
"Now 'plug' in and broadcast a piece of news." At 19 o'clock in the evening of May 3, 2006, Seoul time, the ongoing program department of the three major satellite stations of the country was interrupted, and a news broadcast was connected, and the host of the broadcast showed irrepressible excitement without exception: "At 18:20 this afternoon, South Korean President Roh Moo-hyun appeared at the Good Morning Shopping Mall of Dongdae 'Gate' in Seoul, accompanied by the relevant staff of the Blue House, and enjoyed the historical drama "The King's Man" with the citizens who had recently set off a grand viewing scene -- this is President Roh Moo-hyun since he became the owner of the Blue House. It was the first time in the history of South Korea that a president appeared in front of the public to watch a movie and shared a screening room with the people......"
Press the remote control, change the channel, and the report is still similar!
“…… This is a moment worthy of historical memory, at least the history of entertainment development in the Republic of Korea, and it is the first time in the 40 years that Korean cinema has been officially established and developed. President Roh Moo-hyun visited the NAM Dongdae 'Gate' Cinema at 6 p.m. today and enjoyed a 120-minute movie with the public...... This film that attracts the president's interest is the historical drama "The King's Man", which has recently aroused heated topics...... "The King's Man" is a historical drama that describes the hardships and sufferings of the people at the bottom of the Yanshan Jun era and the treacherous and sinister tyrant's court, full of political satire and humanistic care. "The King's Man" successfully exceeded 5 million viewers......"
Changing the channel again, this time it was the on-site interview footage, in some shaky pictures, the hurriedly turned on lights spread out, and the place where they 'shined' was full of black and crowded people's 'tide', and in the middle of the people's 'tide'. A group of staff and security guards who were urgently transferred from the theater were trying to open up a passage to facilitate their protection of the core, the middle-aged man who walked out of the theater with a smile and waved, looking 'fine'!
“…… Ladies and gentlemen, it's 8:41 p.m., and President Roh Moo-hyun visited the theater more than two hours ago and watched a 120-minute movie with the people......" The live anchor's introduction was not finished. As if receiving the cameraman's signal, he turned his head and found that the president who was about to leave had approached here, and the petite and cute 'female' anchor who was looking at the camera exerted a terrifying momentum, desperately squeezed to the edge of the crowd, handed the microphone hard, and asked President Roh Moo-hyun who found the camera loudly: "Mr. President, why did you come here to watch "The King's Man"? ”
She may not have thought that her question would be answered, everything is just a forced 'sexual' habit of being a streamer, but unexpectedly. President Roh Moo-hyun actually paused and replied, "I heard from the staff around me that this movie is very interesting." So today, take advantage of the leisure time after the office, come and watch! ”
The cute face of the young 'female' anchor is almost red at this moment, and anyone can see her excitement and ecstasy at this moment, but those emotions obviously can't interfere with her self-motivation, so as soon as Roh Moo-hyun finished answering, she asked a second question: "Mr. President, what do you think of this movie?" Did you live up to your expectations? ”
"Very nice film!" Roh Moo-hyun, who is still smiling gently. nodded, "The meaning is profound and far-reaching, with strong educational value, full of humanistic atmosphere, I like it very much!" ”
Being able to answer two questions is obviously the limit, and when the words fell, President Roh Moo-hyun stepped away under the protection of several staff members around him, and only the backs of them gradually disappeared in the surging crowd in the shaking camera, and the 'female' anchor was so excited that they even tried to ask a little bit, and the crowd 'chaotic' shouted!
On the third day after President Roh Moo-hyun watched "Wang Nan", former South Korean President Kim Dae-jung, accompanied by his secretary, appeared in an ordinary screening room of the Lotte Cinema and watched the 120-minute movie in its entirety, and said in an interview with reporters after watching the movie, ""The King's Man" is a very profound realistic fable, with a compact and interesting plot, which not only describes the people's criticism of the absolute power, but also truly reflects the people's life and customs ......
Immediately afterwards, Seoul Mayor and Presidential Candidate Lee Myung-bak, Seoul Mayor Candidate and National Assembly Member Han Hee-myung and relevant municipal officials visited a cinema in the village and spent 120 minutes happily.
South Korea's Grand Opposition Party, leader of the Grand National Party, and presidential candidate Park Geun-hye. On May 6, after the party work was completed, accompanied by more than 10 parliamentarians, he went to a theater in Seoul to watch "The King's Man". At the time of the meeting of foreign ambassadors and ministers, more than 100 ambassadors working in various countries rushed back to China, and they met to watch "The King's Man" at the Korean Theater.
Even now, even the dullest person can discern what the political fu is trying to say.
As a result, the king's men frequently appeared in the newspapers.
Gwangju Mayor Park Kwang-tae and dozens of municipal civil servants and councillors are scheduled to watch "The King's Man" this weekend, saying that it is a very educational film. It plays a good warning role for the government to picket itself! -- The headline on the front page of the Central Daily.
When the mayor of Busan, Heo Nam-sik, received the delegation of Qingdao City, China, and invited the delegation to watch "The King's Man", he said that "The King's Man" is a film with profound practical significance, most of which reproduces the traditional art of South Korea, and is a film that plays a positive role in the image of South Korea. The head of the Qingdao delegation agreed with the views "revealed" by "The King's Man" and satirized absolute power! —Chosun Ilbo
"When the issue of a cabinet reshuffle erupted, MP Suh Song-thaek cited the satirical plot of "The King's Man" to insinuate that the current cabinet was shady, alluding to the fact that many cabinet members had accepted illegal donations. Revealing confidential information about the government, so that some enterprises with insufficient qualifications can be supported by the government. The cabinet expressed anger at Rep. Seo Song-taek's insinuation! -- Dong-A Ilbo
When a person is involved in politics, then the direction in which it is going is no longer controlled by itself, and no one else can control it.
Stimulated by the statements of major politicians, "The King's Man" exceeded 5 million on May 9 (specifically, "Wang Nan" entered the fourth week of release after 5,064,016 people). It only took 3 days to make another breakthrough and successfully enter 6 million people.
Subsequently, the addition of Lotte Cinema has made "Wang Nan" obtain sufficient screening scale, and the number of theaters has reached 480, with 1,000 screens, accounting for one-half of the total screens of several major cinema chains in South Korea.
"This is a miracle unimaginable for Korean filmmakers this year!" On the day when the number of moviegoers exceeded 6 million, the famous film critic Cui Guangxi said in an issue of "Newangel", "The popularity of "The King's Man" exceeded everyone's expectations. I still remember when A said that he would invest 15 billion in "Wang Nan", the whole circle was full of ridicule, people said that A and An Yuxi were crazy, and they all said that Li Junyi deceived a naïve child, so I want to ask, those who have said this kind of thing, when you see its box office exceed 6 million, can you still laugh? ”
"......When "Wang Nan" first appeared, a peer rated it as the best film in 2006, and this evaluation may have a lot of subjective "color", but in my opinion, "Wang Nan" deserves it, it is profound, but also tender, it is not only a humanistic and artistic film that reflects reality, but also a commercial film that is well-made and does not lack connotation - the current film industry lacks such films, and filmmakers have gone crazy to copy the Hollywood model. 'obsessed with big productions and big promotions, but forgetting that the core competitiveness of a movie is to tell a good story......"
On the same day, the famous film critic Lee Dong-jin published a film review titled "The Lost Innocence" in "Screen", in which he praised the picture style of "Wang Nan", "...... This is the first time I have watched a movie with artistic elements so carefully, and I have always been a dislike of Korean art films, because they are always full of too much hypocrisy, or they sell 'sexuality' in the name of art. "Wang Nan" claims to be a historical drama, but it uniquely does not use too much screen language to express the heaviness of history, but uses a 'naïve' method to reveal the history of that period through the collision between the ninth-rate characters at the bottom and the 'king' and the 'court'......"
Such comments, such praise, and such achievements are suspected to be a resounding slap in the face for the previous doubts of "Seoul Sports".
