t this time, Wu Saike had already walked to Chi Jingyuan's face.As soon as Wu Saik stepped through the door, Ji Jingyuan realized who he was. He had known beforehand that he would be replacing someone...The premiere on July 24th had a viewership rating of 1.52%. Following that, two more episodes aired the next week on July 31st, and the viewership for the second day also energized the production team.
Average viewership was 1.78%, with a peak of 2.25%.
The upward trend proves that the excellent performance of the first-day premiere was not a flash in the pan, and it will not experience the tragic situation of peaking at the premiere and declining thereafter.
Called out IU's "Love Rain".
This time, after the ratings came out, it also allowed the crew to relax and feel at ease, like a shot of adrenaline, they were even more dedicated to their work.
The staff compiled all the information and audience feedback collected online. The production team held several meetings to discuss these points. Screenwriter Lee You-jeong stayed up late, trying to make some modifications to the plot and dialogue in an attempt to make the later episodes of the series more fulfilling and engaging.
Before the premiere, all the footage that had been shot was already broadcasted. The past few days of shooting have been very demanding, returning to starting at dawn and finishing at the early morning hours.
It can be said that the entire crew of "Reply 1997" has entered a hot and fast track.
……
After finishing an interview, Ji Chang-wook returned to his dormitory. Since the broadcast of "Reply 1997" and its gradually increasing popularity, he has been getting more and more solo interviews and other activities.
To tell the truth, he doesn't like this kind of activity. It's troublesome. The things said in interviews are all the same set of clichés, nothing meaningful.
He entered the entertainment industry because he loved singing and dancing. Acting came easily to him due to his natural talent, and he felt he did a decent job. However, he found facing the media in interviews quite unpleasant.
During team activities, he always stands on the sidelines, responsible for smiling and clapping, feeling like an observer, completely relaxed.
When he was alone, he felt very uncomfortable.
He was the only one in the entire dorm. All the members and the manager were gone.
Yesterday, after they finished recording the music show "TheShow", the other members and their manager had already boarded a plane to fly to Japan.
On August 4th and 5th, ** Entertainment held two concerts of the "**Town Live World Tour III" family concert at Tokyo Dome.
**TownLiveWorldTourIII is a joint world tour hosted by ** company from 2012 to the present, held in various places around the world. Basically, all artists of the company will attend the performance. It's very famous and has good box office sales. Being able to hold two consecutive shows at Tokyo Dome proves this.
This time, the company organizing the Tokyo Dome concert is very much looking forward to it and prepared for it a long time ago. Most of the artists under their banner will be performing.
S.J.'s Kim Hee Chul is unable to appear due to his military service, and Choi Siwon and Choi Sooyoung are also absent as they are filming "To the Beautiful You".
This drama can be considered **'s self-produced work, and the company attaches great importance to it, investing a lot of resources to expand its influence in the entertainment industry. There is no room for delay, so the two protagonists can choose not to participate.
Besides him, there's also Park Bo-gum who is currently filming "Reply 1997".
This low-budget cable TV production wasn't a priority for the company, and initially, the staff member responsible for coordinating schedules even considered asking Ji Jingyuan to take time off from filming to attend the concert.
However, as the premiere of "Please Answer" surprised and sparked widespread discussion, becoming a potential hit changed his mind. He thought he could manage both sides.
Later, she worried that Chi Jingyuan's back-and-forth travel between the two countries would be too taxing on his body, so she simply told him not to come and to focus on filming.
This kind of treatment really makes many artists envious, the first time I've seen ** company so considerate of their artists' physical health.
Since Pool Kyungwon didn't come, EXO is left with only 11 members. Plus, his part and center camera shots are quite a lot, so the members need to re-practice the stage choreography.
But it's okay, they EXO only need to perform one song, "MAMA". Even if they rearrange the choreography, it won't take long.
The other members' performances were all collaboration stages with senior artists from the company, so it didn't matter whether Ji Kyeong-won participated or not.
If it was an EXO concert, with dozens of songs, suddenly having one person missing, the amount of rehearsal work needed to readjust would be too much.
The dormitory was empty and eerily silent. There were no familiar faces or the usual boisterous chatter, leaving Chi Jingyuan feeling quite out of sorts.
…………
After waking up the next day, Chi Jingyuan first did a short interview activity and arrived on set a little later.
Pu Zai Xian parked his car and walked into the film set alone. He found that filming hadn't officially begun yet, and groups of crew members were chatting and discussing things here and there.
"Jingyuan, you're here."
"Good morning."
The staff greeted Chi Jingyuan, and he smiled in response.
Someone came to visit today and brought a lot of food. Jingyuan can go get some.
One stagehand, munching on something in his mouth, mumbled,
"A visit Who" Chi Jingyuan asked curiously.
"APK, that's the combination from Endo, you should know as an idol, right"
"Well, of course I do."
Chi Jingyuan nodded, patted his single-shoulder bag and continued walking inside.
His single-shoulder bag was a gift from his elder sister on his birthday. It was also custom-made at the factory, a sporty style single-shoulder bag, overall white and gray. On the surface is a pattern of the legendary Pokémon from Generation V, Kyurem, which is large, covering about two-thirds of the entire bag. The wings are also treated to extend beyond the edge of the bag.
Just like the gift from my second older brother, this is also a gift tailored to his liking.
Because his family is well-off, Chi Jingyuan basically doesn't lack anything. He may not even like expensive gifts, so in recent years, his family has been giving him custom-made presents that are related to his favorite anime or the same style.
He was very satisfied with this shoulder bag, thinking it was super cool.
But of all the family, only he thought that way.
As soon as I got to my seat, before I even had a chance to put down my bag, several members of the Apk combo came over to greet me.
"Hello there, we are Apk."
There were three people who came, all of whom Ji Jingyuan knew: Park Chul-long, Son Na-eun, and Wu Xiaorong.
"Hello, seniors. I'm Sehun from EXO."
He also bowed respectfully. Apk debuted last year, so he is his senior.
After the greetings, both sides seemed a bit awkward, as if they didn't know what to say next.
Among the three of them, Sun Na-eun lowered her head and glanced at Ji-seong with the corner of her eye. The other two looked at each other, as if using their eyes to urge the other person to quickly join in and liven up the atmosphere, so it wouldn't be so awkward.
In the end, Wu Xiaorong was unable to overcome her captain’s authority. She stepped forward and stammered a greeting:
"Um… I heard that Kyung-won xi and Eun-ji Oni have a good relationship, since they're close family. So we don't need to use honorifics… Um, thank you, Kyung-won xi for taking care of Eun-ji Oni on set…"
Wu Xia Rong was still too young, her social skills were not even a third of Eunbi's.
I don't know who is usually in charge of socializing and networking within the team.
"Ah, it's all Endinu who usually takes care of me."
