Chapter 67: Acting is Desperate
Watching Jung Jae-kyung go away, Lee Min-cheol was in the unaccompanied suburbs of Gwangju, and the crew of "Dae Jang Geum" lived like this: he didn't have his own script, because Kim Young-hyun was still writing, and even if he thought of anything on the spot, he would let Lee Min-chul act directly; has no friends, but Lee Min-cheol still learned some news from his new friend Little Fatty, this TV is initially estimated to be about 50 episodes, MBC is extremely confident, and he is prepared to shoot more than half of the episodes in advance before starting to play, unlike ordinary Korean dramas that are broadcast while filming.
And after Lee Min-chul chatted with writer Kim Young-hyun for a while, he basically determined that he actually lived from the beginning to the end of this play, and resisted the urge to let her write herself to death in advance, and Lee Min-chul reluctantly accepted the reality.
"Shin Ji Nuna, are you with Brother Zhong Min and Brother Jae Kyung? Let's turn on hands-free" after introducing the basic situation: "I may not have so much time to be active with Gao Yaotai in the past half a year or so, but fortunately, Brother Zhong Min has a variety show, and if Shin Ji Nuna can't do it, take my song and release a single." ”
Hearing Li Minzhe's chattering concern on the other end of the phone, Shen Zhi endured the warmth in his heart and said rudely: "Ah, can't you live without me?" I'm better than you, I'm looking for you Nuna, I'm going to host the radio or something, and I just want to rest, and when your scene is filmed, it's time to release the next album. ”
Zheng Zaiqing also said next to him that the group singers were originally like this, releasing an album for half a year, and then moving separately, so that Lee Min-cheol felt a little better, and when he heard Kim Jong-min on the other end of the phone, he smiled and said that he would come to visit the class for a while, and Lee Min-cheol's heart was also very warm.
"In Brother Shi, I can't go back, what should I do if I quit XMAN." After listening to Li Minzhe's description, Liu Zaishi breathed a sigh of relief, but then yelled.
"Don't pant when you speak, you're not our host, it's okay if the guests come for a few fewer episodes." Listening to Yoo Jae-seok's relief, Lee Min-chul also asked cautiously: "XMAN, can I do it without me?" ”
Hearing the busy sound from the phone, Li Minzhe pouted and sent a few more text messages to several girls, thinking that there was nothing to do, Li Minzhe turned off his mobile phone and looked at the thin pages in his hand in the house arranged by the crew.
When he got up in the morning, Li Minzhe didn't sleep well, and walked out with dark circles under his eyes that hadn't appeared for a long time, but as soon as he went out, Li Minzhe, who was stimulated by a cool air, tightened his clothes tightly.
Looking at the broken ice in the creek along the way, Lee Min-chul also realized that it is already November, the winter in South Korea has come, and the whole drama spans decades, so he plans to shoot from November to about April next year, and the natural scenery will naturally be filmed from winter to summer for half a year.
Walking to the door of the dining car, Li Minzhe took a cup of soy milk, looking at the steaming heat, Li Minzhe also felt that the warm liquid slowly flowed into the whole body, gradually recovering in the sun, and tightened some thin clothes on his body, Li Minzhe sent a text message to Zheng Zaiqing again, urging him to bring all his winter clothes and buy the warmest clothes he could see.
The actor Ji Jin-hee has not yet joined the group, so most of the current scenes are scenes where Da Changjin suffers in winter, and Dae Changjin suffers, how can he not have the role of his own brother.
Lee Min-cheol and the surrounding employees sighed to their lips, stomped their feet to keep warm, looking at Lee Young-ae in front of the camera, wearing thin clothes, her originally white and tender hands stretched into the cold stream and instantly turned burgundy, Lee Young-ae controlled her expression and performed her lines.
Lee Min-cheol next to him can also be regarded as seeing the efforts of South Korea's top actors, even the biggest name Lee Young-ae, still has to bear these pains, hearing people shouting cards around him, Lee Young-ae's assistant and crew members took handkerchiefs and coats and directly surrounded them, and some female assistants directly stuffed the warm baby into her arms.
After arming in an instant, Lee Young-ae and Kim Young-hyun looked at the camera together, and noticed that Kim Young-hyun next to him was a little dissatisfied with the camera, and Lee Young-ae took the initiative to ask for a reshooting.
watched Lee Young-ae's wonderful performance, and unconsciously arrived at Lee Min-cheol's role: "Your role was deleted by me before, so many of the current scenes are added temporarily, and how many scenes you can have in the future depends on your own performance, according to the plot and my explanation, play freely, this is a line for a while." ”
Listening to Kim Young-hyun's explanation, Lee Min-cheol silently memorized his lines, but looking at the last sentence on the paper that was blacked out by Kim Young-hyun, Lee Min-cheol still saw those words clearly: "This kind of weather into the water is a bit of a fight." Li Minzhe whispered.
As Li Minzhe wore the same thin costume, he walked to Da Changjin's side, and forcefully pulled out the hand she was hiding behind her back, and stuffed her distressed hand into her arms: "Xu Changjin, can you cherish your own body, can you touch a fish on such a cold day?" ”
Looking at the somewhat weak table in the picture, Kim Young-hyun helplessly thought about the plan he had just vetoed, let's survive, Kim Young-hyun comforted himself, just as he was about to shout the card.
Li Minzhe suddenly took off his shoes, and then looked at Xu Changjin gently: "You still have my younger brother." ”
At this time, Li Minzhe secretly cheered himself up in his heart: If the acting skills are not enough, I will try my best to make up for it. Secretly counted a few and resolutely plunged into the water, although Li Yingai, who was playing the scene, was a little surprised, but he still stood on the shore and expressed his anxiety.
When he just entered the water, Li Minzhe felt that his heart had stopped beating, and it took more than ten seconds for Li Minzhe to stand up tremblingly.
Kim Young-hyun was very satisfied with this performance, although Lee Min-chul's acting skills were still immature, but this realistic physiological reaction was still very real, so he hurriedly called the card, but saw Lee Min-cheol standing in the water trembling and whispering: "Give me the fish, I don't want to come down again." ”
The crew hurriedly handed over a fish, and at this time re-filming, Lee Min-cheol was soaked in the water, and even because it was too cold around him, he was steaming hot, holding the fish high, and smiling brightly at Xu Changjin, who knelt on the shore.
After the filming of this section, Lee Young-ae's assistant and some crew employees naturally ran over to arm her, and Lee Min-cheol endured the pain of cramps and slowly moved to the shore, and the little fat man with Lee Min-cheol's coat rushed directly into the stream, wrapped his coat around Lee Min-cheol, and half-helped and half-hugged Lee Min-cheol to the shore.
originally thought that Lee Min-cheol was only an idol who could only be asked to join the crew, and Lee Young-ae, who was in the acting school, was naturally very disgusted with this kind of person who went through the back door, but seeing Lee Min-cheol's appearance today, he also recognized this somewhat unexpected little brother.
"Don't surround me, feel like you're going to help." Lee Young-ae pushed her assistants and motioned for them to help.
At this time, people including Kim Young-hyun rushed up, looking at Lee Min-cheol, whose face was pale and trembling, Kim Young-hyun shouted, "Get him clothes, bring him another dry clothes." ”
But everyone is just holding towels and warming the baby, and Lee Min-chul's clothes are still on the way. Just as everyone was looking at each other, a black thickened down jacket was draped on Lee Min-chul.
Li Minzhe felt the countless warm baby heat inside the clothes, and then felt that he was alive again, smelling the faint fragrance of flowers on the collar, Li Minzhe turned his head stiffly, and saw Li Yingai in the costume looking at him with a smile.
"Nu-Na-, you will be my pro-Nuna in and out of the play in the future." Looking at Li Ying-ae, who was smiling and spitting out white gas, and her cheeks were unusually ruddy from the cold, Li Minzhe slightly raised the fish in his hand that had not been thrown away because of stiffness: "We can eat fish at night." ”
This should have been the line that Lee Min-chul said while standing in the water, but he didn't say it at the time, which was harmless, but now he said it made the scene full of laughter.
"Director, have I ever done this?" Li Minzhe only remembered to ask at this time.
"See for yourself, I don't care if you want to shoot another one, but do you still have clothes?"
Lee Min-chul himself does not have too many scenes, but he has gradually become a key figure who can thread the needle and lead the way and be able to take on the turning point of the plot. And there are not many important roles in this play itself, it can be said that except for the male and female leads, the others are not well-known young actors, and the roles are also the kind of supporting roles that can die at any time to set off the protagonist.
And in the whole play, because it is a story of Da Jang Jin, there are many female characters, and there are few male characters.
However, with the filming of this scene, no one has time to think about it, after all, if the winter scene is not filmed now, will it have to wait another year?
So in this somewhat isolated suburb of Gwangju, a group of people are in full swing filming this extraordinarily grand drama.
