Time flies in a blink of an eye.

October passed quickly, and it entered November. After November, it's awards season in South Korea.

On November 1, the 50th Korean Film Daejong Awards was held at the KBS TV Studio Hall in Yeouido, Seoul.

However, this year's Dazhong Award ceremony was criticized by many viewers who watched the award ceremony. ——Because the organizers did not take into account the collision between the award ceremony and the baseball league finals, the award ceremony was temporarily changed from live broadcast to recorded broadcast on the day of the ceremony, and the list of winners was announced through the official website before the recording began, which made the audience watching the award ceremony a lot less suspense.

But for Lee Seung-woo, who participated in the award ceremony, it had no impact at all.

Anyway, whether it is live broadcast or recorded, he is on the spot, not watching on TV, what kind of process should it be or what kind of process.

Walking the red carpet, taking photos, interviewing ...... After a set of processes, Lee Seung-woo entered the studio hall.

This year's awards ceremony Lee Seung-woo went through the motions again, and "Lost Delta" (Horror Cruise) has no other nominations except for Son Ye-jin nominated for Best Actress, so there is nothing to look forward to.

No way.

Not to mention that the shortlisted films of this year are all strong, whether it is "The Gift of Room 7", "Look", and "Snowpiercer" The box office and reputation are much higher than him, even in terms of qualifications, Lee Seung-woo is also a small character, even if he shares pork for a while, he can't share it in his hands.

Entering the studio hall, under the guidance of the staff, Lee Seung-woo found a seat and sat down, and then took out his mobile phone to pass the time.

He came alone this time, not with Son Ye-jin.

And celebrities are all about coffee positions.

With Son Ye-jin's coffee position and qualifications, it is natural that he will not come here so early, and Choi Min-sik, Hwang Jung-min and others, who are familiar with Lee Seung-woo, are also the same.

And.

An awards ceremony from the red carpet to the end of a few hours, it is not interesting to come early and sit dry.

Li Chengyou is too junior and doesn't have that qualification, it's not good to be sprayed late and be rude, otherwise he wouldn't have come so early. If it weren't even for his qualifications, he wouldn't even be able to win a single award anyway, and he wouldn't even be able to participate in this year's awards ceremony.

It's a waste of time here.

For artists, especially those who have just debuted, participating in the awards ceremony can increase exposure, and it can be regarded as a gain. But the director speaks with his works, and his popularity is also improved by his works, no matter how high his exposure is, if the reputation of his works is average at the box office, no one will pay attention to him at all.

As a director, you can either win awards or make money, if you don't touch either, you can make hot search headlines every day, what's the use of.

The entertainment industry has always praised the high and the low, who will dump you?

Sitting in his seat, Lee Seung-woo was bored playing Sudoku, and just filled in a number, suddenly a shadow fell from overhead, and then a familiar female voice sounded.

"It's so early, it's so positive today."

Lee Seung-woo subconsciously raised his head and couldn't help laughing: "Ye-jin is angry, ...... that" said and looked at Son Ye-jin, who was wearing a white dress, and quipped, "...... Angry that, cold or not? ”

Son Ye-jin rolled her eyes, sat down next to Lee Seung-woo, and said with a smile: "Beautiful and moving, if you want to be beautiful, how can you not be 'frozen'?" ”

Lee Seung-woo smiled.

After laughing and chatting about the current situation, Son Ye-jin suddenly asked, "I heard that your next work is final, and you want to cooperate with tvN?" ”

Li Chengyou nodded: "When the film is over, preparations will begin." ”

Although the script of the drama "Ghost" has been completed and the two sides have also confirmed their cooperation, because "The Secret That Can't Be Said" is about to be released, it will enter a busy publicity period next, so Lee Seung-woo can't find time to prepare for this drama for the time being.

And.

Whether Kong Liu will be invited to the movie "Train to Busan" is also to be determined at the moment, so everything will have to wait until after the movie is released.

After all, the reason why circles are formed in the entertainment industry is for mutual benefit.

As a member of the circle of Dongguk University, the reason why Choi Min-sik and others promoted him before and introduced friends in the circle to expand his network was not only the friendship of the same family, but also the combination of interests and mutual help. Reciprocate the favor, such a big production, Lee Seung-woo should also show the script to Choi Min-sik and others first, if they don't have a schedule or feel that it is inappropriate, then he can invite others.

And because of this.

Lee Seung-woo has not been in contact with Kong Liu at present, and plans to wait until the movie is released before starting preparations.

Taking a step back, Kong Liu is not the only choice.

Whether it is "Ghost" or "Train to Busan", the root of success is the excellence of the script and the director's ability, of course, the actors also have credit, but there are many people in the entertainment industry who are better than Kong Liu's acting skills. Just like an old saying, if this earth is missing, everyone will turn the same, there is no Kong Liu, and there are Jin Liu and Li Liu. It can only be said that the success of film and television dramas in his previous life proves that Kong Liu has this strength, and Lee Seung-woo has a clearer candidate in the choice of actors, but it is not necessary for Kong Liu.

Therefore, in the option of inviting Kong Liu, everything will have to wait for the protagonist of "Train to Busan" to be determined.

If Choi Min-sik, Han Seok-gyu and others in Dongda's circle refuse, then Lee Seung-woo will choose to invite Kong Yoo, and use the protagonist of the movie as one of the bargaining chips to invite Kong Yoo to appear in the TV series.

Of course.

Again, it all has to wait until after the movie is released.

If there is an accident, "The Secret That Can't Be Said" will fail at the box office, and even the cooperation with tvN TV series will have twists and turns, so it is useless to think about it so much at the moment, and it depends on the box office performance.

No way.

The director is like this, everything depends on the box office performance, and the movies made can't make money, which is the director's biggest original sin.

Also for this reason.

Whether it is tvN or Lee Seung-woo, after the two sides confirmed the cooperation, they were not in a hurry to produce a TV series.

There is no need to say what tvN is waiting for, Lee Seung-woo is actually waiting too.

If "The Secret That Can't Be Said" really failed at the box office unexpectedly - although the probability is not large, but there is no absolute, it is not impossible.

In the final analysis, Koreans in the previous life were touted, but after all, it was a parallel world, "The Secret That Can't Be Said" was released in 07 in the previous life, and now it's been 13 years, and it's not impossible for the audience's viewing taste to change.

Even if the odds are small, they are still there.

And once "The Secret That Can't Be Said" hits the street at the box office, then Lee Seung-woo will suspend the filming of the TV series next, and will focus on the production of "Train to Busan", and the filming of the TV series will definitely be put aside for the time being.

And because of this.

Everything has to wait until after the film is shown.

But.

Glancing at Son Ye-jin beside him, this is also an actress with a lot of box office appeal, Lee Seung-woo's heart moved, and he asked with a smile: "Nuna, in addition to making a TV series next year, I also plan to make another movie, I wonder if Nuna is interested in working together again?" ”
