rformed a dance to "Wolf" right in front of them.Though the dance itself was clearly very handsome, when they started performing it looked awkward no matter how you looked at it. A strong feeling of s...The producer's strong confidence in Ji Jingyuan left these reporters speechless.

What does it mean to say, "Even if this drama fails, Park Jung-won is still the most suitable choice"

That is, this drama hasn't aired yet. If it had already aired and truly failed, you wouldn't be so brazen to say such things.

Chi Jingyuan, who was standing nearby, pursed his lips after hearing this and maintained a smile. However, he thought to himself that the usually taciturn producer was quite talkative. He really spared no effort for publicity.

"Li PD is right, when we had the meeting, our first thought was indeed Jingyuan."

Jin Yuanxi, who was standing on the side, took the microphone, pushed up his black-rimmed glasses and nodded in confirmation: "But to be honest, I still had some doubts back then... Later, Jingyuan and I met privately for a meal. After that, I told PD Li..."

He looked over at Lee Jae-won, and the two smiled at each other. "I said this role had to be him, there was no one else."

"PD, that's a bit of an exaggeration, I never heard this part before" Didn't wait for PD to finish. The bar was set too high.

I wonder what Ren Shi Wan's feelings would be seeing this.

"Yeah, PD don't be so biased! Is only Jingyuan that important What about the rest of us" Li Xingmin chimed in with a dissatisfied tone, "How do I remember you said the same thing when you chose me to act So it turns out everyone gets the same spiel"

"Hahaha…" Kim Yeonsil let out a hearty laugh, shook his head, and then gestured for them to be quiet.

The reporters below burst into laughter as well, and the atmosphere in the room became more lively.

Turning to the director and producers, he asked several questions, and they also shared some behind-the-scenes secrets from the preparation stage. Then, the reporters turned their attention to Park Ji-won:

"Jingyuan xi, your drama "The Heirs" was a huge hit last year. Kim Tan's influence spread throughout Asia. However, you haven't appeared in any television dramas for almost a year since then. Industry insiders say that you've been receiving countless script invitations, but why haven't you taken on any new projects" A female journalist wearing glasses stood up and stared intently at Park Seo Joon.

He had answered this question many times before. After a brief pause, he picked up the microphone and naturally said: "Because besides being an actor, I am primarily active as a member of EXO. This year, since the beginning, the group's schedule has been very busy and I haven't had much time. Besides, the company has its own planning and arrangements for my overall career."

After finishing my busy period, I entered a lull. Just when I was with the company Guotong, I saw the script of "The Untamed". I fell in love with it at first glance.

"Are you saying you took this role because you liked it, not because ** Entertainment chose it for you" the female reporter accurately hit the key point in her words.

"Within, I really liked this drama and proactively suggested playing a role in it to the company." Park Kyung-hwan nodded in confirmation.

"Will there be some pressure if my opinion goes against the company's"

Of course not...

Shrugging with an air of self-assurance, Chi Jingyuan winked at the crowd below: "On the contrary, this has actually boosted my confidence in this play. You should understand…"

"Hahaha…"

The ** entertainment department is really quite famous, hearing this not only the reporters but also several of the actors beside them couldn't help but laugh.

"We looked at the cast list, and as the youngest member you became the male lead. Was filming this movie a big challenge for you"

"Of course, as this is an ensemble workplace drama, the production team placed great emphasis on acting skills when selecting actors. All the senior actors involved are very experienced and talented, such as seniors Lee Seong-min and Kim So-ra... At first, because I hadn't acted in a long time, I was a bit rusty. However, with their help, I quickly got into character."

What do you think are the special features of the play "Unborn"

Because it is a very rare type of film on the peninsula.

"As a workplace drama, we hope that "Miseo" can add something to the genre of Korean television dramas. Moreover, I've never worked in a company before, so this is a very novel experience for me, something I've never had before."

"Good to meet you."

…………

The press conference for "Untamed" lasted over an hour. All the main actors were asked numerous questions, but the focus and core of the promotion, and what the reporters were most eager to grill about, was still Park Seo Joon himself.

He was the most popular and talked-about cast member, with a third of the press conference dedicated to questions about him.

However, the others didn't seem to have any objections either. This situation had already been rehearsed during an internal meeting of the crew before, and this is also what the lead actor deserves.

Today, we talked about a lot of casting and behind-the-scenes anecdotes, but there wasn't any truly eye-catching news. It was a completely normal press conference from start to finish. Only time will tell how effective it will be in terms of promotion.

To this day, thanks to the special project by N and the casting of Kiyochika as the male lead, "Ms. Kuroi" has been generating a lot of discussion online since its announcement. However, because workplace dramas don't inherently have the same broad audience as idol dramas, and the original manga for "Ms. Kuroi" wasn't particularly popular, opinions on the show have been mixed.

However, it's still mostly good. Just the built-in fanbases of EXO and Yuan can generate a lot of traffic. The biggest black spot is that this drama's genre is a very rare workplace drama in the peninsula. There has never been a precedent for a workplace drama to become a big hit in the history of the film and television industry.

It seems like people from the peninsula are just not into this type of TV drama. This is also a major reason why many people have underestimated "The Untamed".

However, no matter what one's opinion is, people generally agree that the acting of the main actors is commendable.

Actors like Lee Seong-min, who have a long history of experience and are known for their acting skills, go without saying. 薑素拉 also gained recognition as a promising young actress thanks to her role in the drama "Sunny." Meanwhile, idol-turned-actor Ji Chang-wook, after only two roles, has completely transformed the public's perception of idol actors from being habitually underestimated to being acknowledged for their talent, establishing himself as a representative actor of the younger generation.

Over the past two years, he has made remarkable progress on his acting journey. With just two roles, he has achieved significant success. In contrast, Yoona unni spent five to six years appearing in numerous projects without fully shaking off her idol image. Even today, she is primarily cast as a decorative presence in most of her roles.

However, to be honest, Ji Jingyuan made time to watch quite a few of Lim Yoona's TV dramas for various reasons. With her looks and inherent popularity and buzz, even if she were just a vase, she should be a higher-class one. Her acting is also gradually improving. But to this day, she still can't break free from the shackles of being an idol and has even become a ratings poison. There are quite a few reasons for this, and one of them is that their company's vision for choosing roles is truly something to be questioned.

That novel "Zong Li and I" is something else, even as a fan, Chi Jingyuan can't stand it.

Trash **, it really wasted my Unnie's time.

After the press conference today, N will officially start releasing various materials, including nine versions of the promotional video for "The Untamed" which were already filmed. In the following days, several small-scale press conferences will be held to warm up the hype, and a series of supporting activities will be carried out for promotion.

It's clear that they are putting a lot of resources into this special project, "The Uncanny Counter." If the show fails, it would be a huge blow to both the television station and the main actors, including Ji Chang Wook.

However, the entire crew, including the actors, are still quite confident.

After the press conference, Chi Jingyuan accepted several more private interviews before returning to the set and filming until evening. Today's work was finally over. After saying goodbye to everyone, he got into the nanny car and prepared to return to the dormitory.

Because the filming of "The Untamed" started early enough, all the scenes for the first few episodes have been filmed and edited, and Wang Yibo has also finished dubbing the narration.

The workload for the past two days has decreased significantly. The focus for this last week is on

This promotion is over.

Meanwhile, Ji-yeong, who was sitting in the nanny car at that moment, was watching the online discussion about the episode of that aired on the 7th.

The viewership of this variety show, < TTS>, hasn't been very high. Since it premiered, it's mostly been watched by their own fans.

Although the three people on it are very relaxed and show off a lot of interesting personalities, overall it's the kind of variety show that fans really like, but its discussion doesn't reach outside the circle, only being able to enjoy itself among fans.

However, after the episode aired on October 7th, it suddenly became one of the hot topics discussed online over the past two days. The most interesting thing for both fans and passersby is that Ji Chang-wook, who is a close friend of Kim Tae-yeon, participated in the show. Many people were very surprised to learn that these two actually had such a good relationship.

Girls' Generation and EXO haven't had much interaction over the years. Besides occasional fan captures of the two groups members greeting each other and some polite interactions, there hasn't been much else. Plus, both Park Jung-hyun and Kim Taeyeon are quite famous within their own fanbase and known for being introverted and not easily approachable.

These two really came across as close friends on this episode, which surprised a lot of fans, but also made them feel pretty happy.

Wow, double the joy! As a longtime fan of both少女時代 and EXO, seeing this episode is pure bliss! It's even more special because my biases in both groups are Taeyeon and Yuan!

Even though Taeyeon's phone call was muted, I instantly recognized Yuan's voice. You guys know how shocked I was when I heard it

The popularity TOPs of the two teams are good friends, and their performance on the show clearly shows that they really have a good relationship, it's not put on. What kind of fairy friendship is this

"Well, although… EXO isn't really considered a TOP group right now, is it They were definitely close before, but after Han left and fans defected, their momentum slowed down a lot. Whether they can reach the top again depends on their next comeback... I mean no disrespect, though I am a SONE, I also really like Yuan…"

"This woman Taeyeon is truly a treasure! She seems like a homebody with a small social circle and doesn't like socializing, but when she pulls out a close friend like Yuan, this high-profile artist, it shows just how amazing she is. Among the younger generation, there isn't anyone who has been more successful as an idol or actor than Park Seo Joon... That damn charm! I knew I wasn't wrong for liking him!"

"That year when XO debuted, it was really tough. Aeri expressed gratitude to Taeyeon unnie for taking care of U-Ri Yuan oppa during that time."

"After so many years, with all the sisters having left the group, she's still able to laugh so happily on variety shows Can you give a specific reply"

"Taeyeon of Girls' Generation, she's the one who led the charge to kick out our WJSN, and now she's actively flirting with younger guys. The way she acts is truly shameless..."

"Did anyone notice Yuan's ringtone Why is Yuan's ringtone a song by that parrot girl group How can such an awful song be used as a phone ringtone I guess ** arranged it to give them a chance to promote themselves. It's really disgusting, what time will they disband"

This week, other aspects, including Paula and Sowon as friends of Seo Hyun and Hwang Mi Young, didn't attract much attention. However, the exposure of Kim Taeyeon and Ji Chang Wook's close relationship truly caught many eyes. Even passersby would be tempted to take a look at this news besides fans.

The overwhelming popularity of Girls' Generation, coupled with Taeyeon's beloved image and the immense popularity and buzz surrounding Ji-yeong, along with his equally positive public image, created a synergistic effect. This resulted in an exceptional outcome for this episode, surpassing the combined viewership and discussion figures of the previous episodes by a significant margin.

This also brought a lot of attention to TTS which is currently in its regression period.

This comeback wasn't very successful. The title track "Holler" has achieved four number one spots so far, but the digital music performance is rather average. Besides the initial surge in popularity from fans after the release, it began to decline rapidly within two days.

However, sales volume is still their strong point. As of yesterday, they have sold over 120,000 copies, and even a small subunit outperforms other first-line girl groups in sales.

It seems that their sales figures and music source rankings are reversed, just like a boy group.

According to the G chart, after the variety show broadcast on the 7th, the sales of this mini album TTS have shown a significant rise from the next day, and it has been steadily increasing as the heat spreads.

I don't know how many people bought TTS album because of Park Ji-sung, which is a way to support his good friend.

This morning, Chi Jingyuan still received a text message from Jin Taeyeon. She was smug and sent several screenshots of online praise for her, including messages calling her "goddess" and pictures boasting about their "fairy friendship." Even through the phone, Chi Jingyuan could imagine this sister hugging a pillow and giggling mischievously with her head covered.

Then she sent him a screenshot of her phone lock screen. It was the still frame from the variety show where she and Ji Jingyuan were laughing and high-fiving each other, looking at it made Ji Jingyuan chuckle inwardly while also feeling a sense of wistfulness.

This older sister, despite her age, actually feels younger as she lives.

On Taeyeon's side, this is pretty good news. However, things are looking a little bad for Red Velvet.

Yesterday, they performed the first stage of their comeback to "benature" in . After that, not only did the negative discussions from before not improve online, some people's insults became even worse.

Yesterday, she watched the replay of their stage at the pool. She wasn't very impressed with this cover song, but this comeback they completely changed the previous four-colored hair ends that were crazily criticized as "parrot styling," and instead wore a revealing ladies' suit.

But while he felt that the choreography leaning towards a sexy style suited some people quite well, he thought that the way Seulgi digested it was rather average.

Especially Sun Shengwan, in Chi Jingyuan's mind, she has always been more lively and cheerful, and has nothing to do with things like sexiness.

This time, she was on stage licking her round face while beckoning and raising her eyebrows. Sitting in a chair, her short legs swung back and forth, looking alluring but not at all seductive. Instead, it made Ji Jingyuan feel awkward and ridiculous, afraid that she would suddenly contort her face and give him an exaggerated expression package as if doing some kind of meme. This is also what Sun Shengwan excels at in private.

No, Red Velvet hasn't been doing well lately. Why does he think Sun Seung Wan has gained a lot of weight

I also don't know how many times she and Ginger Shiqi sneaked out to the convenience store again.

After that, I looked at the comments above. Park Ji-won flipped through a lot of messages and found that no one was discussing how the singing or dancing were. Basically, it was all about venting anger and trashing other artists' fans. The majority were angry SONEs, FUNC fans, and ALICEs.

To be honest, Alice still dislikes Red Velvet's Park Kyung-won to this day. She can't even figure out why.

Han has been gone for so long, and the "resource theory" that caused the wave of attacks back then was actually just a baseless fuss that involved Red Velvet. The two sides didn't have much to do with each other and there wasn't any real conflict. Fans still attack Taeyeon and BeBe up to now, leaving even Ji-seong unsure what to say.

It can only be said that it is probably a habitual dislike after the transfer of hatred.

Although it's only the first day and there hasn't been an official comeback with sound source release yet, judging from the current online buzz, it doesn't seem to be very favorable.

But how exactly it will be, we'll have to wait for the official audio release on the 13th.

Just as he returned to the dormitory, Ji Jingyuan noticed several large bags in the living room when he was changing his shoes at the door. Park Chan-lyeok, Woo Shi-hun, and a few others were rummaging through the front of the bags, and several other members were gathered in the living room, seemingly curious about what was going on.

"I'm back."

"Hmm," the members greeted each other when they saw Ji Kyung-won. He changed his shoes and walked in, curiously scanning around: "What's going on Why are you all gathered here"

"Tao's dad is here." Jin Jun-myeon pointed to the closed room next door and then gestured at the several large bags on the tea table, indicating these were gifts from Tao's father.

"Oh, I guess I should come take a look too." Ji Jingyuan nodded in understanding. Tao has been resting in the dormitory ever since he was injured on the 5th and found to have a bone fracture after returning to the peninsula. He's unable to move around easily.

Hearing that he was an only child and had been seriously injured, it was natural for his parents to rush over to see him.

Walking into the crowd, Chi Jingyuan also joined in the fun and flipped through the gift Taofather had sent over. He casually flipped through it and found that the packaging was very exquisite, and at a glance, you could tell it wasn't cheap.

It's not uncommon for members’ families to visit and bring gifts. This has been happening since before their debut, almost non-stop. In contrast, no one from Ji Kyeongwon's family has ever visited. He's met the families of other members many times.

After taking a look, Chi Jingyuan went to the restroom to wash up and prepare to return to his room for a rest early.

"I told you so..."

"It's okay..."

"Are you lying here"

Just as he was passing through the living room and preparing to return to his own room, he heard a conversation coming from Tao's room. Although they were speaking in Xia language, their accents were quite heavy dialects. Chi Jingyuan could only make out roughly a small part of it by guessing. The tone of the conversation was clearly not friendly, and there seemed to be some tension between them, as if they had argued about something.

But he had no interest in eavesdropping on conversations and walked directly into his room without lingering.

Over the next few days, while Red Velvet diligently continued their tireless promotional activities for their music releases, Park Kyung and the entire cast and crew of "Reply 1988" also kept up their relentless promotional efforts.

The production team also specially registered accounts for 《Unborn》, using names of the characters from the play like Zhang KeLai, An YingYi and Wu ShangZhi. They posted various pictures and materials on these accounts every day, attracting a lot of attention.

As the male lead,池景源 naturally put in a lot of effort. He hasn't been active on s lately, but these past two days he was unusually diligent, taking many selfies and uploading them to social media along with stills from the drama. One selfie captioned "October 17th, 《未生》, I finally start work today" shows him in a sharp business suit, staring directly at the camera.

Chi Jingyuan's fans are very active, even though he doesn't often post photos. A group of Yuan fans can discuss his photos from many days ago.

"This time, can you learn from your teammates and be more diligent with work (Angry)"

As a Yuan fan, I really have a lot of resentment on this side.

It is worth mentioning that the number of Ji Chang Wook's fans has recently started to approach 7 million. At this rate, it is estimated that his fan base could very well exceed 10 million next year. Achieving such a number is incredibly rare in Kpop today; very few people can reach it.

This also made several other teammates quite jealous, especially Wu Shixun. He managed very diligently, but his growth rate was still far behind Ji Jingyuan, who spent every day leisurely browsing the internet. Up to now, his fan count is just over two million, which has left him feeling increasingly irritable and making sarcastic remarks lately.

Then, being attacked both visually and verbally by Chi Jingyuan, he retorted.

In a blink, it arrived on October 17th. The N-network's weekend drama, "Nineteen," starring Kim Young Kwang and Lee Seong Jae, ended its final episode with a dismal viewership of 0.685%, an overall average of less than one percent. The baton was awkwardly passed to "My Mister" which then disappeared without a trace.

And this drama, which boasted many tags from its inception, including "N8th Anniversary Special Project", "Ji Chang Wook's new drama following The Heirs", and "Professional Workplace Drama" among others, finally appeared before the public after garnering much anticipation and skepticism.
