Chapter 445: Arriving in Korea
With the influx of Korean idols and TV dramas into China in recent years, and after a wave of 'Korean Wave' has been set off in China, no matter what the national conditions are, at least the connection between South Korea and China has become more and more close, and at the same time, it has also led to the development of some tourism industries in South Korea and China.
This can be seen from the increasing number of flights in Yanjing and Seoul.
Huaxia is not very far from South Korea, and if you take a plane, it will take about an hour and a half to two hours.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, it departed from Yanjing, and before five o'clock, the plane had already arrived in the sky over Seoul.
Although since becoming a star, Menjie has spent a long time on the plane and has been to many places, but he has only gone abroad twice.
The first time I went abroad, I went to India to shoot the movie "Myth", and the second time, now, I came to South Korea, and these two times I went abroad gave Menjie a completely different feeling.
When he went abroad to India for the first time, Menjie was just a little star, and even in India, he didn't even have a little fame, he was completely an ordinary person, even if he appeared on the street, no one would recognize him.
But South Korea, on the other hand, is a little different.
Although in South Korea, his own movies, TV series and songs are not popular here because of the language, but for other reasons, Menjie already has more than 25,000 fans in South Korea, and he is already a small star.
For this, of course. Menjie regretted that if the two albums he had released were all English albums, I am afraid that in South Korea, there would already be a larger number of fans.
You must know that in South Korea, a place where the entertainment industry is very popular, ordinary national songs, movies, and TV series may not be able to become popular here, such as Japan and China, and there are not many stars who can eat here.
As a foreigner. If there are no Korean works, there is only one way to become famous here, and that is to have strong popularity and works in Europe and the United States.
South Korea is a country, whether it is a celebrity or an ordinary person. There is a morbid cult of Western culture and entertainment.
They worship Hollywood movie stars, world-class directors, and popular singers in the West. Even. An ordinary singer and actor in his own country, if he can make a little fame in a country like the United States, he will be praised as a superstar in the world of Peng Weishi in South Korea, and everyone will be in the limelight.
A Korean star, even if he has a certain amount of success in Hollywood. will also be infinitely exaggerated, in terms of influence, it is even more popular than the existence of a veteran actor and actress in China, which can be seen. The people, media and even celebrities in this country adore the American entertainment industry.
The most typical example is Fang Chenglong, because several works have entered the world world, so he has a certain popularity in South Korea and is worshipped by people, otherwise, if he is only famous in China, I believe that Fang Chenglong may not have much popularity in South Korea.
But no matter what, the first time he came to a foreign country with his own fans, Menjie's heart was still full of anticipation.
"It's here!"
In the blink of an eye, the plane had landed slowly, listening to the announcements in Korean and Chinese, Menjie also began to pack his luggage.
It is said that it is luggage, but in fact there are not many things, only a bag-sized carry-on package, containing some carry-on luggage, not much, but it is enough for the next ten days of consumption, and there is no need to go out to buy.
After packing up his things, Menjie and Kim Hee-sun got off the plane together, because they were in first class, so they didn't look crowded.
"Whew! Sure enough, it's different from Huaxia! ”
As soon as he got off the plane, looking around, a faint smile appeared on Menjie's face.
Although the construction of the airport and many other hardware facilities are not much different even in the whole world, the people around me can still feel an exotic atmosphere because they all speak Korean.
What's more, unlike India, this language can still be understood, and the mood is naturally more wonderful.
"Let's go!"
chuckled, and looked around at Menjie without much surprise, after all, when Kim Hee-sun first arrived in Huaxia, he was basically like this, and under the leadership of his agent, he walked towards the exit of the airport.
After all, Menjie's mission to South Korea this time is to promote the movie "Myth", which has nothing to do with music, Huayi Brothers did not equip Menjie with a special agent, Menjie himself hesitated because he knew Korean, and finally rejected Zhao Dong's idea of hiring a temporary Korean broker for himself, after all, there is only ten days, there is no need to be so troublesome.
However, a star, if there is no agent, it will be somewhat inconvenient, so in the end, under the advice of Kim Hee-sun, Menjie was temporarily assigned to Kim Hee-sun's agent, and naturally everything followed Kim Hee-sun.
"Sister Xishan!"
When he followed Jin Xishan towards the exit of the airport, Menjie frowned slightly, and couldn't help but come to Jin Xishan's side, and said tentatively, "Isn't there a VIP passage here?" Although it doesn't matter how I am, after all, I don't have any popularity in Korea, but Sister Hee-sun, you ......"
When he was in Huaxia, every time he arrived in a city, after Menjie got off the plane, he entered through the VIP passage of the airport, in case too many reporters and fans appeared and disturbed his normal life.
In South Korea, it is true that Menjie is not very popular, so there is no need to worry about these problems, but Kim Hee-sun is different, as a top Korean actor, the news of his return to South Korea will not be known to anyone, and Menjie is also worried that it will cause too much turmoil.
After all, as a popular idol in China, Menjie knows how fierce the strength of the paparazzi is.
"Menjie, you may not know us very well in Korea!"
With a chuckle, Kim Hee-sun was not ready to take Menjie to any VIP channel, but simply walked forward.
"The population of our South Korea is only more than 50 million, which is twenty or thirty times worse than your Huaxia, but in terms of the number of stars, it is not less than your Huaxia!"
"In China, it can be said that it is difficult for an ordinary person to see a star in his life, let alone meet a star on the street, but in South Korea, because of the small number of people and the large number of stars, basically everyone has seen a star and has had a certain amount of contact and communication with a star!"
"Therefore, in South Korea, there will not be a situation where fans are very fanatical and have a very serious impact on the lives of celebrities!"
After saying that, Kim Hee-sun also chuckled, "When I first arrived in Huaxia, I was also shocked, and after getting used to the relatively ordinary fans here, I saw the enthusiasm of the fans in your country...... It's crazy enough! ”
Nodding slightly, I also have a general understanding of what Kim Hee-sun said.
If a Korean star is found on the street, even if it is a relatively popular star, at best, some of the more interested fans come to ask for autographs, and it won't take long to end.
But in Huaxia, if you are found shopping, I'm afraid it's not that simple.
Moreover, in Huaxia, there is a very strong profession - paparazzi, a group of deteriorating reporters who probe the private lives of public figures for the purpose of profit, and the existence of bottomless reporters makes celebrities dare not appear in front of the public too much, for fear of circulating some unfavorable news.
But in South Korea......
There are no paparazzi at all!
Here, even if it is a popular idol, at best, it has a certain 'illegitimate meal', and there is no paparazzi.
The paparazzi are reporters who are completely aiming to make money and exploring the private lives of celebrities without a bottom line.
And the profession of illegitimate rice is an avid fan of a star, because he likes stars too much, he can't help but follow, or even follow stars, and take some photos of celebrities' private lives.
And most of the illegitimate meals will only keep these photos, as their most precious wealth, and will not take out the Lu to sell, in essence, because they like idols, and there is a difference in nature from the paparazzi!
"Sister Heeshan, you are a big star at the actress level in South Korea, and you even have the title of 'Korea's No. 1 Beauty', is it possible to be so popular, and there will be no fan blocking?"
Seeing Kim Hee-sun's calm and calm appearance, Menjie couldn't help but ask again.
"No, I'm a film and television actor, and I'm not an idol, and I'm not going to take the sexy and charming route, most of my fans are quite sensible, and there won't be the kind of situation you said!"
Shaking his head slightly, Kim Hee-sun said, "The kind of situation you mentioned is relatively rare in South Korea, only some stars who have opened up foreign channels will only appear when they have achieved a certain degree of success in foreign countries and returned to China, or when some top idols appear, as for me...... No, it won't! ”
After all, he is a diva-level figure, and when he said this, he didn't have a trace of envy, Menjie nodded slightly, and he didn't say anything.
Some celebrities like paparazzi and illegitimate meals, because they can spread scandals and increase exposure, but some celebrities don't like it either, and feel that it affects their lives, and they have their own ideas and opinions. (To be continued......)
