Chapter 811: Graduate Student of Dongguk University

For the next period of time, Kim Do-joon lived a busy and fulfilling life, except for completing the itinerary and announcements arranged by the company, the rest of the time, either staying in the recording studio or going to JYP Company, together with Park Jin-young, revised Wondergirls' new song "Nobody", and officially served as the title song producer of Wondergirls.

As for the title of album producer, it is not Kim Do-joon's turn to do it, and Park Jin-young is the producer of the album.

Staying at JYP for a long time, in addition to the song, I was thinking more about how to design the MV of this song with Park Jin-young.

Normally, it's not interesting, MV is also part of the song, in general, every good song has a corresponding good MV, so that it can be called a classic.

The two of them have discussed this matter for a long time, day and night, and only Kim Do-joon is free, so he will think about this issue carefully.

In the end, it was Kim Do-joon's idea that completely moved Park Jin-young.

was a retro singer in the 70s of the last century, and with the inspiration that Kim Do-jun accidentally recalled, when he participated in the Blue Dragon Awards, he accidentally had a stomachache and went to the toilet without toilet paper, but when he came to the bathroom, he found that he didn't even prepare paper towels in the bathroom.

This awkward scene, incidentally, led to several members of Wondergirls as temporary guest performers to replace the singer.

And this retro singer in the 70s let Park Jin-young play it, as for himself. Just reluctantly. Let's take on the role of an MV director!

This is after the MV of BIGBANG and Lee Min-woo. is directing the MV for the third time, which is not only a workout for Kim Do-joon, but also a rare and valuable experience for him on the road to acting.

If you want to become a good director, the MV director is only the most basic part, if you can't even tell the story clearly, and you can't shoot it well, it's tantamount to nonsense. I also want to make TV series and movies, it's a dream.

So Kim Do-joon didn't feel bored, the most basic experience is one part, and learning is another, and now Kim Do-joon has his own plans, with his school and graduation results, he can apply to join any university in South Korea for a master's degree.

A top student at Yale University, graduating with perfect marks, as long as he applies. Generally speaking, it is not a big problem.

However, Kim Do-jun has his own ideas, and he has no interest in other majors at all. Unless it's a directing department, it seems that only a few universities have set up a directing course.

Kim Do-joon has asked Kim so young to help him inquire, there are only three universities that are suitable for him, first, the time requirements are not very high, and the management is relatively not very strict, which is more suitable for Kim Do-joon's identity as an artist.

Generally, the director of a Korean TV station or a TV series shooter will enter the theater and the TV crew after graduating from school, step by step.

Like Kim Do-jun, it's not that there are people who do the opposite, but relatively speaking, it's a little less and not so prominent.

What's more, film directors who are not professionals are easily discriminated against, which is still very common in South Korea, directors have associations that belong to directors, and screenwriters have associations that belong to screenwriters, and the power of these associations is quite huge.

The skinhead movement took place in 1999, in order to protest South Korea's accession to the WTO and the opening of foreign film quotas, Korean filmmakers held a large-scale protest march, almost all filmmakers mobilized, and many Korean film directors even shaved their heads and staged sit-ins in Gwanghwamun and other places in protest.

Because shaving the head is a strong form of protest in South Korea, and this event is attended by all Korean filmmakers, it has been highly concerned by world public opinion.

This put enormous pressure on the South Korean government, which decided to continue the policy of having to screen 148 days of domestic films a year in every screening room in every Korean cinema.

Including the giant directors of the Korean film industry, a generation of masters Lin Zequan and Kang Digui, each of them is a godfather-level figure.

Therefore, in order to successfully gain a foothold in the Korean film industry, it is necessary for Kim Do-jun to go to Zheng'er Bajing to study for a master's degree.

Not all directors are Kim Ki-duk, there is only one director like him in South Korea and in all of Asia, but in any case, he is also a painter, wandering in Paris for a long time, receiving Western aesthetic guidance, and the pictures he shoots are also extraordinary.

Kim Do-joon doesn't expect to become a director like Kim Ki-duk, so at least he has to study hard, start from the basics, shoot the MV as part of the experience, and master the professional knowledge from shallow to deep through school learning, so that he can grow faster in the shortest time.

From the current point of view, only Dongguk University, South Korea's Chung-Ang University and Kyung Hee University are suitable for Kim Do-joon, these are all outstanding schools in the art department, almost more than 70% of directors and actors in South Korea are born or graduated from these three schools, and the rest are generally Sungkyunkwan University or Yonsei University.

While instructing Kim so Young to help him sort out the information of these three schools, he is also seriously thinking about which school to choose.

Kim Do-joon also has his own considerations in mind, and he personally prefers Dongguk University, and the school is not very far away from him, the distance is very close, and it will be a short drive away.

Second, the acting department and the directing department of Dongguk University are quite good, Kim Do-jun thinks that his acting skills are still a little lacking, if he wants to develop in an all-round way, he still has to consider some and take more acting training courses.

I am not a genius, it is impossible to learn without a teacher, and without the teaching of a teacher, it is almost unrealistic to want to become an excellent director and actor.

Actors may also be a little bit, as they grow older, the more they see society, the more their experience will naturally be enriched, no matter what role they play at that time. Because you've been there. So it's easy to come by. Play what is like what.

And the director is too professional, as the saying goes, acting is good, acting and directing, what does it mean.

Literally, you can understand that an actor can only improve his acting skills and act well. I want to be a director.

It sounds simple and easy to understand, and there is no difficulty at all, that is, let you experience this society first, so that you can grasp the subject matter and make an excellent movie.

In this, Kim Do-joon didn't ask Taeyeon for advice and didn't tell her about it.

College has always been a pain in her heart, don't think that the little guy doesn't care, watching everyone else go to college, but she is for the dream of being an artist. Give up the opportunity to enter the college entrance examination.

It may seem fine now, but the more time passes. This kind of pain is becoming more and more intense, and it is difficult to imagine that people have never entered a university class in their lives.

What's more, Korean families, especially male students, generally like their daughters-in-law to graduate from college, especially Ewha Womans University in South Korea, which is the first choice for wealthy daughters-in-law.

Now that Taeyeon is still young, she may not feel very clearly, and when she really thinks about lifelong events in a few years, she will understand that sometimes, school is really a hurdle to prevent girls from marrying into wealthy families.

After thinking about it for a long time, he finally sighed and shook his head, the little guy is so stubborn, he gave up a lot of things for the sake of his acting career, and in the end, it was just in exchange.

"Who made her the captain of Girls' Generation!"

The giving is far greater than the gain.

Kim Do-joon still decided not to tell her for the time being, and after a while, after picking a suitable time, he would tell Taeyeon all these things.

In the past few days, Kim Do-jun has been busy, and Kim so has not been idle, running back and forth for his affairs, collecting school information, the quality of teaching, and the identity of the teaching teacher, and comprehensively comparing them.

In the end, after careful consideration, Kim Do-joon still chose the directing department of Dongguk University according to his inner thoughts, and while completing the recording of the title song of the new album and the shooting of the MV with Park Jin-young and the members of Wondergirls, he went to Dongguk University in a low-key manner to complete the application for master's degree and related procedures.

By the time all these things were done, it was close to late July.

Basically, the general work has been prepared, the school for Kim Do-jun's application, showing super high efficiency, within a few days, the discussion was approved, and the green light was turned on along the way, obviously after receiving Kim Do-jun's application, the school was also surprised.

An outstanding graduate of Yale University, when he returned to China, he actually applied for a master's degree at Dongguk University, which is not Seoul National University, nor Yonsei University, nor anything else.

If such a student takes the initiative to send it to the door and can't catch it, then I really don't know how to evaluate it.

In less than a week, Kim Do-joon's application was approved, to be honest, it was a bit unexpected by Kim Do-jun and Kim so-young, but if you think about it carefully, everyone just takes what they need, Kim Do-joon is to learn directing and actor skills, and the school is using Kim Do-joon's fame to attract more students to study, the two are not contradictory, on the contrary, they are not related to each other, and it is quite appropriate.

So in the past few days, Kim Do-jun received an admission letter from the university for the second time in his life, because when applying for graduate school, it needs to be done half a year in advance, so he will arrange admission and so on in a limited time.

Considering Kim Do-joon's status as an artist, it is not very convenient in terms of time, and according to the school's regulations, the artist can have appropriate adjustment opportunities.

Therefore, Kim Do-joon only needs to complete the necessary courses, complete the credits, pass the exam, and complete the thesis defense, and then he can obtain a master's degree certificate, and he does not need to take every course like other students, and he needs to take exams.

To a certain extent, Kim Do-joon has already participated in the filming of Hollywood movies, and for these professors and tutors, it is an existence that cannot be achieved in a lifetime.

If it weren't for taking care of the minds of teachers and other students, there wouldn't be such a troublesome thing.

So after a series of adjustments, it was finally revealed on the admission notice that Kim Do-joon would enroll in the spring of March 2009 and become a graduate student of the directing department of Dongguk University's class 09. (To be continued......)
