The success of the previous "Little Thing of First Love" made the theater operators have inexplicable confidence in the movies produced by NRG Company, although the investment in "Those Years" is not large, but the theater companies are still very optimistic about this movie, and the number of films is also very good, reaching more than 40%, second only to the large-investment movie "Han River Monster" released in the same period.

bumped into the movie "Han River Monster", Li Junxi was also very helpless, although he was very confident in "Those Years", but "Han River Monster" attracted countless eyes from the beginning of filming, starring popular stars Song Kang-ho , Bae Doona, and Hollywood's special effects team joined, with a total investment of more than 50 million US dollars, which is dozens of times that of "Those Years".

There is no doubt that the collision between "Those Years" and "Monster of the Han River" will definitely affect the final result of "Those Years", but since it is unavoidable, Lee Jun-hee can only fight.

On the day of its release, compared with the huge premiere of "Monster of the Han River", "Those Years" was undoubtedly a little childish, did not walk the red carpet, and did not arrange special media interviews, but some friends in the circle helped out, which was naturally indispensable.

It has been nearly ten years since NRG's debut, and it has naturally accumulated good contacts in the circle, and on the day of the movie's release, Cui Zhenzhen, Zhang Dongjian, Yuan Bin, Jiang Hudong, Liu Zaishi, and other friends were all present.

In the movie theater, Li Junxi and the crew members sat at the front, the lights dimmed, after the opening, the movie officially began, and Li Junxi's heart also hung up, the previous "First Love, This Little Thing" is a small and broad success model, whether this time can replicate the success of "First Love" again, it depends on the first day of the movie's release.

At least the occupancy rate of this movie theater is good, all 800 seats, except for the friends who came to cheer, the remaining 700 seats are all full of audiences, which is a good sign.

At the beginning of the movie, it is the first-person narration of the male protagonist Jin Xiashi. Riding a bicycle, friends appear one after another along the road, and you can never stop erection. Xu Chengmo, the fat man Park Myung-hoon, the handsome Cho Chengjun, and the funny Lee Young-hong, will appear in every story.

Humor, with a ridiculous language, made the audience quickly attracted by the scene, and there has never been such a movie in the Korean film and television industry.

There is no perfect actor, and there is no handsome that can't be stopped. There are no high-ranking nobles, some are just ordinary people, all alive, as if living around them.

Immediately afterwards, the story began to enter the text, Jin Xiashi and Xu Chengmo, two bad students in the eyes of people, because they were bored in class, actually competed in handjobs, of course, the interpretation of this part is very exaggerated, and Cui Zhenzhen, who was a guest teacher, showed off a sexy performance that subverted the image. It also caused bursts of laughter in the movie theater.

Because of this incident, the male protagonist Kim Ha-seok and the heroine Yoo Yeon-hee were originally two parallel lines and began to intersect.

People were surprised to find out that in this movie. The hero and heroine not only hate each other, but also seem to be completely out of the same world.

A self-defeating, game-like life, and completely inattentive to learning. There is no goal for the future at all, a hard-working, obedient and well-behaved. He is a good student in the eyes of all teachers and the crush of all boys.

So what happens between them? What could happen?

Finally, because in English class, Kim Ha-seok gave up his textbook to Yoo Yeon-hee, so he was punished by Shen Eun-jin, who was a guest English teacher.

Just like the Black Knight, when the princess encountered a dilemma, the male protagonist bravely stood up.

In order to repay Jin Xiashi, Yoo Yeon-hee used a very unique way, she wanted to urge Jin Xiashi to study, at first, Jin Xiashi was very resistant, but gradually, he also learned to enjoy it.

Because, like his good friends, Kim Ha-seok has always had a crush on Yoo Yeon-hee, but it is only because of the feeling that they live in different worlds that they have never dared to confess.

The two began to slowly get acquainted with each other and began to be attracted to each other, although Jin Xiashi in Liu Yanxi's eyes was naïve, but she was responsible, which made her gradually clear her heart.

High school life ended, the two went to college, and when they went on their first date, everyone thought that this matter was the beginning of a fairytale love, but Kim Ha-seok's cowardice made him miss the opportunity to confess to Yoo Yeon-hee.

In order to prove his strength, Kim Ha Seok was naïve again, he held a fighting match, but Yoo Yeon Hee didn't understand Kim Ha Seok's behavior at all, in a heavy rain, the two regrettably chose to separate, and before it started, their first love had already withered.

There were bursts of sighs in the cinema, and people were feeling sorry for the love that the hero and heroine had missed.

At the end of the movie, at Yoo Yeon-hee's wedding ceremony, Kim Ha-seok pounced on the groom regardless of a qiē, and when they saw this scene, everyone laughed, but when they laughed, their eyes couldn't help but moisten, just like Yoo Yeon-hee in the movie.

In the intertwined parallel time and space, the groom becomes Kim Ha-seok, and he and Yoo Yeon-hee kiss passionately in the presence of relatives and friends, which can be regarded as leaving people with a beautiful fantasy.

"The heavy rain that was missed in those years, the love that was missed in those years ~~~~~~~~~~"

At the end of the movie, Lee Jun-hee's singing sounded, "Those Years" This is a song written by Lee Jun-hee specifically for this movie, and when this song sounded, there was already applause in the cinema.

Lee Jun-hee knew that this time, he had won again!

"Let's go! It's time for the curtain call! ”

Lee Jun-hee smiled and said to Kim Tae-hee, who was sitting next to him, Kim Tae-hee smiled, did not speak, took Lee Jun-hee's hand, and stood up together.

Seeing the main creator on the stage, the applause in the cinema became more enthusiastic, and the media reporters who couldn't wait immediately threw out one question after another.

Lee Jun-hee first took all the main creative staff to bow to the audience to express his feelings, then took the microphone and said with a smile: "Thank you very much for coming today, it's really a great honor, if you have any questions, you can interview our director Mr. Park Junrong first!" ”

As a director, Park Junrong is also complacent at this time, the previous "The Little Thing of First Love" has made him famous, look at the audience's reaction now, I believe that as long as there is enough film scheduling, the success of this movie is not too much of a problem, and two consecutive movies are a hit. He is not far from the ranks of first-line directors.

"When I first saw the script, to be honest, I was very repulsed, because I had already made a small fresh style movie before, which was also a campus love story, and everyone knew that the movie was very successful, but because it was so successful, it also gave me a lot of pressure to make another movie with a similar theme. If I couldn't have achieved the same success, I guessed what the result would be, but after reading the script, I admit that I was impressed, it was a really good script, so all my worries were gone. I just want to make a good work, I don't know what the final result of this film will be? It's up to you, those of you who pay to go to the cinema to see a movie, to judge! ”

However, I was able to work with Lee Jun Hee twice in a row. It makes me very satisfied, he's a great actor, very good. ”

After Park Junrong finished speaking, he handed the microphone to Lee Jun-hee. Li Junxi did not refuse, and the eyes of those reporters were looking at him with light up.

"Thank you very much for the compliment from director Park Joon-yong, even though it has been almost ten years since my debut. But I'm just a newcomer in the field of acting. ”

"Lee Jun Hee xi! For the second film in which you are a screenwriter and starring, how much do you expect to reach at the box office!? ”

Lee Jun-hee had long expected that someone would ask this question, so he looked very calm, and said with a smile: "I can't estimate this number, just like Director Park Junrong just said, how the movie is, the audience needs to judge, and I haven't thought about letting this movie surpass anything, this reporter also said, this is my second film, it is two completely different works from the previous movie, and they can't be compared with each other." ”

"It's just a simple prediction!" The reporter still didn't give up.

Li Junxi smiled helplessly: "What the final result is, let's leave it to the audience to judge!" ”

Another reporter stood up: "Lee Jun Hee! In this movie, you and Kim Tae-hee play a couple, I don't know what the real relationship between the two of you is? ”

It's this again!

If Lee Jun-hee could tell the other party very straightforwardly before, and his relationship with Kim Tae-hee was just friends and classmates, then now, he is really a little weak-hearted.

People are attracted to each other, and Lee Jun-hee also admitted that he was indeed attracted to Kim Tae-hee, otherwise, there would not have been that almost forgetful kiss.

"We're just friends now, very good friends!"

In addition to a specious answer, Lee Jun-hee also gave a huge gap in the brains of those reporters.

Just friends now, but what about later?

Who knows!

After answering a few questions, Lee Jun-hee and other creators left in a hurry, and in the following period, their schedules will also become busy, to carry out promotional activities all over Korea.

However, the reporters did not stop because of the departure of the main creator, and the audience became their new interview subjects.

After all, the gold cup and the silver cup are not as good as the audience's reputation!

How about the movie, these viewers who have seen the movie have the most right to speak.

"Excuse me, how do you feel about watching this movie just now? What do you say about this movie? ”

A college student who watched a movie with her boyfriend was stopped by a reporter: "It doesn't feel like a very special story, and it's not an exaggeration to say that it's a bit bland, but it's such a bland narrative that makes me quickly remember the summer when I was seventeen, and then I miss it so much, how to say it?" This movie doesn't have flashy shots, or a deliberately created little fresh atmosphere, just ordinary streets, simple middle school classrooms, but it's just very attractive. ”

The same interviews are going on and on, and the audience's opinions on the film itself are also different.

"What I remember most about the movie is that Yoo Yeon-hee said: The most beautiful time in love is when it is ambiguous. This sentence is very profound! ”

"What I am most grateful to the writer and lead actor Lee Jun-hee is that he let me know how boring it would be if there was no "blood" in a relationship that made you stupid. ”

"I like it very much, after watching this movie, I feel that our youth is only summer, always full of energy, always sweaty, and always so hot. Forever so naïve, I can't see the harvest season, in the long and short youth, in the time of drinking comics, I will always inadvertently like whom, maybe it was inadvertently at first, but because of the forward movement of youth coordinates, and gradually became unforgettable, really great! ”

"I think this movie should evoke a lot of people's collective memories, and the nostalgic atmosphere of the whole movie is well handled. Especially the part before graduating from high school, I think many people can also find their own part in the film. ”

"I think the deepest impression on me is that boys have a Yoo Yeon-hee in their hearts, and girls want to be Yoo Yeon-hee, in fact, I came to watch this movie today because I was bored, but after watching it, I suddenly had an impulse, and I also wanted to create a new self with a longing for a beautiful love."

"What impressed me the most was Jiang Yumei. That ordinary girl who was willing to be a green leaf next to the heroine Yoo Yeon-hee in her youth, but she appeared at Yoo Yeon-hee's wedding banquet as a person who realized her dream, and as a wallflower, I admit that I was moved! ”

"After watching this movie. When I was in junior high school, I also liked a boy in my class, and he was also the boy sitting in the back seat of me. Because he sat in the back, it also made a lot of difference in my life, and I entered the classroom every day. All with the best posture, spend every second that may be in his eyes, listen to the records of the bands he likes, watch the anime he likes, learn about the sports he likes, even wear clothes in the colors he likes, keep his hairstyles that he casually says are good-looking, buy snacks that he also likes, sometimes it's naïve to think about, but these are all things that would be done at that age, and now that I think about it, I feel incredible. ”

The audience's reaction made the reporter a little strange, because few viewers would directly say that this movie was good, and most of their answers were their own feelings after watching this movie.

However, it is precisely because of so many feelings that the success of the film itself is proven, because such an effect can only occur if the film resonates strongly with people.

interviewed so many people, there are almost no negative comments, this is a very rare phenomenon, Koreans have always been very picky, especially in the entertainment industry.

Even the original hit "Tai Chi Flag Flying", after its release, while the praise continued, there were still a lot of scoldings, scolding Yuan Binniang, scolding Zhang Dongjian for being old-fashioned, scolding the director for being neurotic, in short, scolding everything.

But it's very peculiar that Lee Jun-hee's two movies don't have the slightest negative evaluation!

All right! The material is in hand, go home, and rush to the draft!

Never before have these journalists felt like they were so thoughtful, that they had so many ideas that they wanted to put into words, and no doubt they resonated strongly with this film.

The movie "Those Years" is actually describing a story that everyone has experienced and seen, and the whole movie is not so much about looking back on the ridiculous and cute bits and pieces of the green years, but more about the nostalgia and nostalgia for those irreversible time and space after becoming more and more mature.

Time is like flowing water, and there is no return.

People, once they go away willfully, they are afraid that there is no way back.

After going through the green years, today's people work hard for their wives and children, for fame and fortune, to avenge their old love, and to sell their souls to show off their capital!

All that you have, what you have, will never be more than you give. Those good times without purpose and without hiding their scheming, standing on the fork in the road of the past, saying goodbye to people who are drifting away.

Recalling those intermittent times, and taking a look at the warm years presented in "Those Years", it seems that you can see a force rising between the lens transitions, which is a gentle force that can pause and turn back time!

Let people return to that ignorant youth, to miss, to reminisce, to move!

"Should I say congratulations?"

In the banquet hall of a hotel in Seoul, although the box office statistics on the first day of "Those Years" will not come out until tomorrow, Li Junxi can't wait to prepare a celebration banquet, and in the next period of time, they will have to promote all over the country, and there is no time at all, so it is better to celebrate in advance today.

In a corner of the banquet hall, Kim Tae-hee walked up to Lee Jun-hee with a glass of red wine and said with a smile.

Li Junxi also smiled: "It should be said that we are happy!" ”

Putting aside the most straightforward issue of interests, the biggest gain of this movie will undoubtedly be Kim Tae-hee, the role of Yoo Yeon-hee, who can finally throw away the title of vase.

Yoo Yeon-hee's role has a lot of room to play, and Kim Tae-hee's cousin xiàn, so to speak, is very good!

Lee Jun-hee looked at Kim Tae-hee, the Kim Tae-hee in front of him was really beautiful, and sometimes he couldn't help but think that God was really too partial to her, gave her a perfect appearance, and gave her a smart brain.

In an instant, Li Junxi suddenly had an impulse, and he almost blurted out a sentence.

Kim Tae-hee seemed to sense something: "Don't talk! Jun-hee! Don't say it, my mind is very messy at this time, let me be quiet, okay? ”

Kim Tae-hee's eyes are pleading!

When Li Junxi heard this, although he was a little depressed, he still nodded: "We are just very good friends now!" Is that right? (To be continued......)
