Chapter 112: Interview

Early the next morning, Kim Do-jun was called up by Han Sung-ho, because today he was going to participate in a variety talk show "It's Okay to Laugh" on Fuji TV

So you have to get up early and start putting on makeup and styling.

This time I went to the show with Takayuki Yamada and Director Miike, because he was the main actor of the movie, there would definitely be a lot of questions to ask him, so he had to prepare in advance, and the director of the program specially sent the questions to be asked to Kim Do-jun in advance, so that he had time to prepare well.

The main purpose is to promote the new movie, so the styling is still based on "Hot Blooded College", no suit, just a gray T-shirt from the movie, black casual pants with the chain in the movie, which is completely a reenactment in the movie.

I didn't wear other accessories, earrings, or necklaces, and I didn't wear any other accessories, which looked refreshing, because the show was not very long, and it was just director Takashi Miike in order to increase publicity and exposure.

"It's okay to laugh" has been broadcast on Fuji TV for 25 years since it was launched on Fuji TV in 1982, and it can be called an iconic variety show, and many top artists have been interviewed on the show.

In April 2002, it reached the record of 5,000 live broadcasts, and won the 2003 Guinness World Records for the longest time a host has been live on a live show.

After putting on makeup and styling, it was not early, because the show had always been broadcast live at noon, so Kim Do-jun and others took a car together and went to Fuji TV.

The host of "It's Okay to Laugh" is Kazuyoshi Morita, also known as Tamori, an old man born in the Showa era, who is 62 years old this year.

In his hometown of Fukuoka, he worked as a band manager, a building janitor, a doll shop salesman, an insurance salesman, a coffee shop clerk, and a bowling alley manager, and then he moved to Tokyo and entered the entertainment industry at the age of 30, where he demonstrated his unique skills in imitating fake Chinese and lizards on radio and television programs.

Although his speech on the radio was disgusted by all sides, since 1982 it has been the author of "Morita Kazuyoshi Time Smile! In addition, the broadcast, CM and other activities continue.

Kim Do-joon, under the leadership of director Miike, and the director of "What's the Matter" and the host Kazuyoshi Morita bowed respectfully and greeted. This is what I should do, especially the seniors who have been doing the show for many years, and I can learn a lot of useful things from them, plus I am here to promote the new movie. You have to work harder, and humility comes first.

After a few people got the process right a bit, they were ready to start.

Kazuyoshi Morita habitually put on his sunglasses, and asked with a smile because he knew that Kim Do-jun could speak Japanese.

"Don't be nervous, relax. Just chat as usual! ”

After saying that, he left directly, ready to start the live broadcast at noon.

As soon as Kim Do-joon walked into the studio, he found that the audience was already full, and more than 90% of them were women, and it seemed that this show was quite popular with female audiences.

With the director's order, the live broadcast of the show began.

Because the production team has proposed to release the guest news today, they also specially made a few bulletin boards and put them in the back, which read.

"The premiere of the hot-blooded high school was a success."

"Korean newcomer Kim Do-joon starred in director Takashi Miike's latest work for the first time."

"Takayuki Yamada's transformational work."

The production team has made a lot of signs and put them at the back of the guest seats. It seems that director Miike's face is indeed very big, and many well-known film actors and company executives have sent congratulatory flower baskets.

And the audience kept calling Director Miike's name, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Kazuyoshi Morita still opened as usual, wearing sunglasses and wearing his usual photogenic clothes, sitting on a stool and saying.

"Today's guest is the director and starring of "Hot Blood High School", Mr. Takashi Miike, Mr. Kim Dojun, and Mr. Takayuki Yamada, please!"

After a burst of music, Kim Do-jun walked out behind the scenes with Director Miike.

"Hello everyone, please take care of us when we meet for the first time!" The three of them shook hands with the host one by one at the same time and greeted the audience.

Takayuki Yamada brought a poster of "Bloody High School" and then began to speak.

"This is our new movie "Hot Blooded College" that will be released soon, I hope you will support it!"

Kazuyoshi Morita then asked.

"So when will it start to be released? What is the exact time! ”

Kim Do-joon had already read the script beforehand. Knowing how the process of the show went, it was his turn to speak, so he said with a smile.

"On the 27th of this month, it officially landed in Japanese cinemas of all sizes. We hope you will go to the cinema more often to support our new movie! ”

Kazuyoshi Morita exclaimed.

"That's not going to be released in two or three days!"

"Yes, it will be released the day after tomorrow, please pay more attention!"

After speaking, Kim Dojun also bowed slightly to express his gratitude.

At this time, Morita Kazuyoshi found out that SMAP had also sent a flower basket, so he said in surprise.

"It turns out that SMAP has also sent flower baskets, and it seems that the popularity of several people is really high. Do you say yes, Mr. Takashi Miike! ”

At this time, the audience applauded, and sometimes Morita Kazuyoshi still likes to tease celebrities, but everyone knows each other, so they usually like to joke.

After a slightly simple opening, all four of them sat down in turn, and because Kim Do-joon was the protagonist, he was asked by director Takashi Miike to sit in the middle.

This is the first time he has been officially regarded as the center of the interview, even if he was in Leessang before, he was behind the two elder brothers, and he belonged to the object of protection, even if he spoke and interviewed, he was the last, but this time he directly took the lead and became the protagonist of the interview.

"This way, Daojun's hairstyle is really handsome!"

Kazuyoshi Morita leaned sideways and looked at Kim Dojun and said with a smile.

"Thanks for the compliment!" Kim Do-jun touched his hair embarrassedly, and spit out his little tongue cutely, and was praised for the live broadcast, which is really embarrassing.

"I heard that Daojun is still a graduate of a famous university in the United States, right?"

This question was specially arranged by the producer of the show after knowing Kim Do-joon's identity.

China, Japan and South Korea all have special plots for the United States, especially Japan and South Korea, basically believe that only the United States is the most developed and powerful country in the world, they worship the strong, respect the strong, it can be seen from the members of Girls' Generation, many people want to go to the country basically has the United States, so if someone comes back from a well-known university in the United States, it will be very enviable.

"Yes, I just graduated from Yale University, returned to South Korea to be a singer, and by chance I auditioned for director Takashi Miike to have the opportunity to become the actor of this movie!"

"Oh! So that's it! Mr. Miike, why did he choose Dojoon as the leading actor in this movie? ”

This question is not only curious about him, but even the producers of "It's Okay to Laugh" find it strange that one of the most well-known directors in the Japanese film industry should have a foreigner in the lead role.

Director Takashi Miike is also wearing a red leather jacket and brown sunglasses today, just like the Sakuragi Hanamichi in the anime "Slam Dunk" that Kim Dojoon used to watch, he is a red-haired monkey alive, holding back a smile and looking at Director Miike.

"The first time I saw Kim Do-joon's photo, I told in my heart that this is the actor I want, it's him, although I have also selected other actors later, but none of them satisfied me, and then he came from South Korea to participate in the audition, and after I saw him in person, I strengthened my mind and wanted to shape him into Genji Takiya in my mind!"

It's the first time that Takashi Miike has spoken out his inner thoughts, and he has only talked about it with Mr. Takahashi by chance before, but he didn't go deeper, and this time he said it completely in "It's okay to laugh".

"Oh! So that's it! It's amazing, what does Mr. Takahashi, the author of the manga, think? ”

Kazuyoshi Morita helped his sunglasses and asked.

"Originally, Mr. Takahashi was still very skeptical, thinking that a foreigner would not be very confident in participating in his own work, but he came to visit the class, and after seeing our shooting, he was immediately relieved, and just said to me, shoot well, come on!"

Director Miike is still very grateful to Mr. Takahashi for this, there are very few authors like him who can let go to such a point and do not participate in any shooting and opinions, since he handed over the work to director Takashi Miike, he naturally believes in him unconditionally and can make this movie well.

"Mr. Yamada, what do you think of working with Dojun this time!"

Takayuki Yamada doesn't like to participate in this kind of interview very much, because it is for the sake of movie promotion, so he has to come over, but he still wears a very casual dress, a mustache, a flower shirt and comes up, his hair is very long, and he is draped on his shoulders indiscriminately.

It's because he is more free and easy-going, so he and Kim Do-jun have a good temper, and the relationship between the two has been growing by leaps and bounds, getting along with each other as friends.

Takayuki Yamada patted Kim Do-joon's shoulder, grinned slightly, and spoke.

"The first collaboration was so perfect, whether it was dialogue, fighting, or acting, it was perfect, impeccable!"

Although there are some compliments in it, most of what is said is the truth, Kim Do-jun is really good as a rookie actor, very good, and better than many old artists, which he still admires Kim Do-joon, which may also be related to Kim Do-joon's true colors, Takiya Genji is very similar to Kim Do-joon himself in many ways.

As soon as Takayuki Yamada spoke, an exclamation sounded at the scene, and it could still be heard faintly.

"That's amazing! Are you sure? And so on the audience to discuss the words in private.

Kazuyoshi Morita also exclaimed after hearing this.

"Really? Then it looks like I'll have to buy a ticket to go to the cinema to enjoy it, although it's a bad boy, but who hasn't been young, right?"

Kazuyoshi Morita suddenly remembered when he was young, as if he remembered the old days. (To be continued.) )
