"I don't know. It must be a lie. I remember hearing someone say that Kim Hyun Joong's private personality is not bad."
Byun Baekhyun smacked his lips and continued, with an expression on his face that was obviously unbelievable. He looked at Kim Junmyeon next to him and asked, "Didn't Junmyeon hyung and Kim Hyun Joongxi know each other and have dinner together? What do you think of others?"
Sample?"
What they were discussing was a very hot topic in the Korean entertainment industry these days. The former popular actor Kim Hyun Joong was exposed to a domestic violence scandal by her girlfriend a few days ago.
On August 22, a person named Choi who claimed to be Kim Hyun Joong’s ex-girlfriend revealed on the Internet that Kim Hyun Joong had committed multiple acts of violence against him from May to mid-July this year, causing multiple injuries and serious injuries to the woman’s body.
fracture.
At the same time, in order to make her revelations more convincing, the woman also disclosed photos of her injuries after being beaten, as well as relevant hospital diagnosis certificates.
As soon as this news was sent out, it immediately aroused great public attention in the peninsula, and the popularity was very high.
Firstly, scandals such as celebrity domestic violence are the most popular among passers-by. Secondly, Kim Hyun Joong is not a third-tier star with little popularity. Although he has not been as popular as before in the past two years, around 2010 he was considered the most famous star.
One of the most popular male idols.
He debuted in 2005 as the captain of the second-generation boy group SS501. The group's development is pretty good, and Kim Hyun Joong's popularity in it is that of a standout. More than half of the group's popularity is concentrated on him alone, which is a bit similar.
Bae Suzy who is now Missa.
He turned into an actor in 2009 and starred in the first TV series "Boys Over Flowers" which immediately became popular throughout Asia. His popularity skyrocketed and he also won the Baeksang Popularity Award that year. He was constantly being invited to advertise and it was a hit.
In the same year, SS501 held an Asian concert tour, and the attendance and public response were very good.
Later, many problems arose due to the uneven popularity. Kim Hyun Joong went solo and turned into an actor. In 2010, he starred in "Prank Kiss". Surprisingly, the drama became a hit again and once again set off a craze in Asia.
, he completely spread his popularity and influence.
Just looking at the resume, the former Kim Hyun Joong feels like the current Ji Kyung Won. Both of their career backgrounds and resumes are somewhat imaginary. They have also been very successful in transforming into actors. However, EXO's popularity is not comparable to that of SS501. Ji Kyung
Yuan's musical talent is also much higher than him.
Kim Hyun Joong has been a little quiet in the past two years, but his national reputation is still there. As soon as this scandal came out, it immediately attracted the attention of the whole country, and even fans in several other Asian countries were very concerned.
"I had dinner with some acquaintances and Kim Hyun Joongxi twice before. I thought he was a pretty good person."
Jin Junmian thought about it and described the scene at that time, but after finishing speaking, he shook his head: "But this kind of feeling at the wine table has no reference value. Even if everyone has a bad personality, they will not show it on such occasions, let alone
What’s more, it’s a very private matter like domestic violence.”
"Things like domestic violence..."
Chi Jingyuan looked at the injury picture published by the woman surnamed Cui on his mobile phone, and frowned, feeling a little shocked. If the picture was real, he didn't know how hard the heavy bruises and bruises were caused.
After reading a few general comments on the Internet, he shrugged: "Whether this kind of thing is true or not, he was already affected when it was exposed."
"That's right, so this kind of personal issue must be handled well. As long as it is exposed, no matter whether it is right or wrong, as an artist, you have already lost."
Jin Junmian nodded and sighed with emotion.
Several people chatted about this topic for a while, as if they suddenly thought of something. Jin Junmian looked at Park Chanyeol and warned him seriously: "Chanyeol, please don't make this kind of news in the future. It must be a private matter."
Have to deal with it."
Park Chanyeol seemed to have been insulted and hurriedly retorted. His big eyes looked at the innocent faces of several members, "What are you talking about? Brother, how could I do such a thing? Look, I look like
Do you like men who do domestic violence?”
"I'm not just talking about domestic violence..." Jin Junmian wanted to explain but gave up in the middle of the sentence.
The members have been getting along with each other for so long, and they already know who they are. Among all the members, Park Chanyeol is probably the most playful in the relationship between men and women in private, and everyone understands this tacitly.
of.
However, he, Chi Jingyuan and Wu Shixun all looked at Park Canyeol with interest because this topic suddenly came up, staring at his face like a searchlight. When they looked at Park Canyeol and felt awkward about to break out, several people
They looked at each other and nodded slightly:
"Should I say it, it really looks similar."
"Indeed, the more I look at it, the more it looks like..."
"Axi..."
…………
The eleven members of EXO also flew to Xia Guo in the evening, and the concert the next day was successfully held.
Except for the two previous performances on Hong Kong Island that encountered some accidents, EXO's tour so far has generally been quite smooth.
However, this time the team reunited, Chi Jingyuan felt that the internal atmosphere of EXO was a little different. Team K was fine, but several members of Team M obviously felt a little awkward getting along with each other.
Especially the two members of the Xia Kingdom line.
Although the two of them are no longer as preoccupied as when Luhna first left, they don't talk and don't want to communicate. Recently, they can often participate in other people's chat topics, and can also joke and laugh, but
Chi Jingyuan felt that it was indeed a little different from before.
This is true regardless of how the two treat other members or how others treat them.
However, there is nothing that can be done about this kind of thing, we can only let nature take its course.
A few days ago, Chi Jingyuan was tired and busy filming in Jordan. He didn't have much energy to pay attention to the news in the music industry on the peninsula. After he came back, he listened to the members chatting and realized that the news these days was really real.
Quite a few.
Of course, Kim Hyun Joong's scandal is the most explosive, but besides that, there are also several eye-catching news.
For example, YG's new boy group Winner, which debuted on August 17, took the first place in the group with its title song "Empty" in "m!countdown" on the 21st in just four days after their debut. This short
His incredible time caught the attention of countless people in the music industry, and he was directly dubbed the "monster newcomer" by many media and fans. His development momentum has been very strong since his debut.
Chi Jingyuan was also surprised when he heard the news. He recalled the scene when EXO won the first place in the singing competition. He still remembered that a group of members were crying and out of breath backstage. That scene
He still remembers it vividly, and his phone still has a certified photo of him from that time.
It’s just that it took them EXO one year and two months to get a top singer after their debut. Compared with the speed of light of the winner, they can be thrown directly into the trash can.
It is true that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. Such a comparison gave Chi Jingyuan some strange feelings inexplicably.
Another hot news recently is that Girlsday’s Lee Hyeri suddenly became popular.
Girlsday, which had been stuck until it was about to disband, turned around at the beginning of the year with the song "Something" and became one of the most popular girl groups this year. However, one of the members, Lee Hyeri, did not stand out that much.
However, she recently became popular due to a scene in "Real Men - Female Soldiers Special" that was aired a few days ago, where she acted coquettishly and cutely towards her superiors. Her unpretentious performance in the show was also well-received.
Loved by many viewers.
Her aegyo moves were watched over and over again on the Internet, and netizens called her a "textbook aegyo". Lee Hye-ri was given the new title of "National Coquettish Girl". She has been on trending searches for the past few days. She is
The most popular artist recently, I heard that a lot of advertising invitations have been sent to her company, and she looks like a new advertising queen.
Seeing the way, speed and astonishing popularity of this 'national coquettish girl', Chi Jingyuan was also speechless.
The variety show "Real Men" actually has average ratings, and usually doesn't get much discussion. Who would have thought that a not-so-popular idol would suddenly become a hit thanks to such a show.
I can only say that luck is really uncertain, and some people are really lucky.
Just like Chi Jingyuan himself.
"Oppa, look at me Oppa!"
"Yuan, please sign for me. I've been here for several days. I like you very much..."
"Yuan, Sarangheiyo!"
As soon as he reached the front of Seoul Plaza and didn't have time to enter, Chi Jingyuan was squatted by the fans stationed here. This place was already in full swing early in the morning before the mall opened.
After returning from Xia Kingdom after the concert, Chi Jingyuan joined the group non-stop and started filming "Misheng". It has been nearly a week now.
Different from other dramas, "Misei" uses real-life shooting. All scenes of ONE International, where the protagonist is located, including offices, conference rooms and even canteens, were shot in Seoul Plaza, especially
The 15th floor has become the most important location for their daily shooting.
This news could not be concealed at all. Fans of EXO and Yuan who had just heard that Chi Kyung Yuan had joined the group for filming all flocked here.
Seoul Plaza is a public place. Although some locations used by the crew for filming, such as the 15th floor and rooftops, have strict security to maintain order and fans cannot enter. However, the B1 to 2 floors are shopping malls and can be visited freely.
If fans want to visit Chi Jingyuan, they just need to find the right time to do so.
If I don't find the time and stay here all the time, I'm sure I'll have a chance to see him.
Every day when he went to work in the morning and after get off work in the evening, no matter how early or late there were, there would be many fans waiting at the door. When they saw Chi Jingyuan, they were as excited as if they had won a prize, and Chi Jingyuan felt the enthusiasm of the fans. Sometimes I would draw a few people to sign their names and so on.
There are also some fans who may not have jobs or something else. Chi Jingyuan feels that he has seen a lot of familiar faces for several days in a row, and some fans just squat here and wait to see him without doing anything.
Nowadays, the situation of fans gathering and squatting in front of Seoul Plaza has been posted online by some media, which has attracted a lot of attention. People who saw it sighed at the high popularity and attention of Ji Jingyuan, and at the same time, they were not officially launched yet.
The promoted "Misheng" couldn't help but generate some interest, and his positive effect as the leading actor has begun to gradually emerge.
"Jingyuan, are you here so early today?"
After expressing his gratitude and signing a few signatures, Chi Jingyuan walked into the mall and took the elevator to the 15th floor. This place has been transformed into a very professional workplace office. Every table is filled with documents. If anyone who doesn’t know comes in,
I really thought it would be the office space of some company.
As soon as Chi Jingyuan came in, he just greeted several staff members, and Li Xingmin, who was not far away, waved to him and motioned for him to come over.
After the filming officially started, the leading actors became more familiar with each other despite their intention to make friends. As the senior senior Li Xingmin is naturally the most respected one, he seems to admire and think highly of Chi Jingyuan.
, and he is really focused and attentive to filming, because there are many scenes between Chi Jingyuan and him, so whenever he has time, Li Xingmin will drag him to review the scenes in advance.
"I woke up a little early today, thinking I could be the first to arrive, but I didn't expect that I wasn't as diligent as my seniors. I'm really a bit ashamed." Chi Jingyuan smiled and looked at Li Xingmin and several staff nearby, saying hello, and smacked his lips.
Act like you're a little disappointed that you didn't arrive first.
As he spoke, he shook his head slightly and flicked the bangs on his forehead.
Because he had to shoot the early scenes, his hairstyle has been made into a pot head with textured and permed slanted bangs by Cody. The slightly thick bangs hang down in front of his eyebrows, making Chi Jing not have such long bangs for a while.
Yuan is a little unaccustomed to it and always shakes it from time to time.
"Hahaha, you live far away. My house is right next to here, so of course you have to come earlier."
Li Xingmin laughed and patted his shoulder. Then he started again with today's shooting plan and script in his hand: "Come on, it's still early. Let's review the scene we came here for today."
"Okay, I'll be ready and come right away." Chi Jingyuan smiled and nodded, walked to the side to put down his bag and prepared for a while, then came over with the script and started to play with Li Xingmin.
Chi Jingyuan is actually very happy that his seniors often ask him to act opposite him. On the one hand, his acting skills and attitude have been recognized by the other party, and on the other hand, he can also get a lot of help and inspiration in acting. At least
The shooting process went much smoother every day.
The previous episodes of Misheng tell the story of Zhang Klein, who entered ONE International trading company through connections, because of his high school education and lack of any work experience. Compared with the people around him, he seemed out of place.
He was blamed, and at the same time he was ostracized in various ways by the interns who were unhappy with him at the same time. The whole person was full of frustration, like a farce.
However, although he was frustrated, he still had his own persistence in his heart. The most important thing in these episodes is that Chi Jingyuan not only needs to show the hero's desolate feeling of being at a loss and being ostracized, but also needs to show that Zhang Keli has encountered a lot of troubles.
Difficulties are, of course, the subtle feeling of still being determined and working hard in your heart.
Because the crew is an ensemble cast and many of the other actors are talented in acting, it is quite stressful to play the male lead well so that he cannot be overshadowed and at the same time show his own charm and shining points to make the audience fall in love with the lead actor.
Judging from the situation in the past few days, it seems that Chi Jingyuan has done well. Director Jin Yuanxi is very satisfied with his performance and has praised him in person more than once.
However, just being good is still not enough for Chi Jingyuan. He has to be the most outstanding in this workplace drama, especially if he cannot be overshadowed by Li Xingmin, or even overpower him and show Zhang Keli's unique charm.
He feels he needs to do better.
All we can do is continue to work hard.
…………
Due to the weather, the nanny car was driving leisurely on the highway. The rain outside was obviously heavier than what it had just fallen. The high beams turned on for safety also seemed a little insufficient in the night.
Today is September 3rd. Chi Jingyuan has just participated in a brand promotion event in Incheon. After having a late night snack, it is already early in the morning. Although it is already late and it has been raining today, it is still necessary to film the TV series tomorrow morning.
I have to rush back to Seoul tonight.
Fortunately, the two places are very close. It only takes less than an hour to drive there. Even if you drive slower on rainy days, it won't be too late.
Assistant Cui Zhichang was driving, Park Jae-hyun was sitting in the passenger seat, and Chi Jingyuan was sitting in the back of the nanny car, looking at the raindrops outside the window that were shooting towards the rear like sharp arrows, while discussing another recent incident with the two people in front.
A shocking scandal.
"It's really unexpected. Speaking of which, Song Hye Kyo was my goddess in the past. She was in "Blue Life", "Hotel of Love" and "Full House". I was obsessed with her for a while at that time, but I didn't expect that something would happen to her now.
"
Assistant Cui Zhichang looked a little sad when he said it. It seemed that he had been sad for his former goddess for a long time in the past few days.
"No, when was this TV series from? The beginning of the century, right? Brother, your past is too old." Chi Jingyuan laughed when he heard this, and glanced at the driving assistant speechlessly.
Peninsula's heavyweight actress Song Hye Kyo was recently exposed by the media in a tax evasion scandal. According to comprehensive channel TV Chosun, Song Hye Kyo used various means to falsely report her income from 2009 to 2011, evading a total of more than 2 billion won in taxes, and questioned
He also accused the Jiangnan Tax Office and the brokerage company, which were handling the matter at the time, of funneling profits and colluding with each other to minimize the matter.
For a time, the entire peninsula was in shock and excitement.
This is Song Hye Kyo, the Hallyu goddess in many people's minds. She has a very high influence throughout Asia and is one of the most well-known actresses in the peninsula.
After the scandal was exposed, Song Hye Kyo and her agency quickly responded, stating that this was old news two years ago, and that Song Hye Kyo's tax declarations have always been handled by the third tax agency. Song Hye Kyo herself was not aware of the problems and loopholes that had arisen. At the same time,
Since the incident, 3.8 billion yuan in back taxes have been paid.
However, this kind of official response to shirk responsibility did not have any effect. After confirming that the matter was true, Song Hye Kyo was subject to a large-scale boycott. She was scolded as much as Red Velvet on the Internet. She was once the queen of advertising.
Recently, she has been terminated and abandoned by the brands. She doesn't know how much she will have to pay in terms of liquidated damages. She is completely distressed.
Hearing Chi Jingyuan's words, Cui Zhichang said with a trace of reminiscence: "Jingyuan, you may not have experienced it when you were young, but the dramas produced by Song Hye Kyo had such a profound impact on people of our age, but it was really
It’s…”
He talked a little bit about his past feelings for Song Hye Kyo. Although the words were a bit messy, it was clear that he really liked her.
"Oh, I saw him apologizing at the movie conference the day before yesterday. Even though I knew she had broken the law, I still felt a little distressed."
During this time, Song Hye Kyo was filming the movie "My Uneasy Life", and a movie press conference was held just two days ago. However, this press conference temporarily turned into an apology party for Song Hye Kyo. At the press conference, she washed off her black dress and bowed sincerely.
Continuously apologize to the people.
However, the apology failed to win the forgiveness of the public. After it was over, some people even launched a joint petition, demanding that all Song Hye Kyo's advertisements be torn down, as they did not want to see her.
Hearing this, Chi Jingyuan nodded with understanding: "Brother, I believe you were once a fan of hers."
"Actually, tax evasion, or tax avoidance, is quite common in the industry, especially in the film and television industry. There are some agencies that specialize in this. Basically, actors and agencies are well aware of it, especially in the film and television industry.
Many of the top actors of the Mesozoic generation will have this kind of situation."
At this time, Park Jae-hyun spoke up and talked about it. After entering the industry as an agent, he became very comfortable in the industry. He now knows the industry very well and has heard a lot of secret information from other people: "I feel like someone is still doing this.
After all, it happened two years ago, and she also paid back taxes at that time, and now it is suddenly revealed again that someone must have planned it like this, and she probably offended someone or blocked someone's way."
After analyzing it, he curled his lips and added: "But it's mainly her own problem. After all, it is indeed a violation of the law."
Chi Jingyuan also nodded in agreement, then suddenly remembered something, raised his head and looked at the rearview mirror in front: "By the way, Brother Jaehyun, I seem to have heard someone say, is Song Hye Kyo xi a celebrity in the industry?"
Not a good review?"
"It's really average. The more reliable news I know is that she has a very rich love history. It seems that she would date the male protagonist for a period of time every time she was filming, and they would break up not long after the filming."
Park Jae-hyun nodded, and then understood something. He looked at Chi Jingyuan with a smile through the rearview mirror: "Jingyuan, have you heard some unflattering rumors?"
Seeing Chi Jingyuan nodding in the rearview mirror, he shook his head and smiled exaggeratedly: "Song Hye Kyo does have a lot of rumors that are not very good, but they are all unfounded and I don't know if they are true.
Fake, basically every artist has this kind of rumor. Just like you, wasn't it also said on the Internet that you deliberately used means to force away Lee Min Ho, and even satirized him in person? This is a ridiculous rumor, right?
"
"But... is this a rumor? You are right." Chi Jingyuan was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "The first part is true, the second part is fabricated, but overall it is not a rumor, it should be
It can be regarded as... artistic processing."
"If you say that, then Song Hye Kyo xi is also..." Chi Jingyuan compared himself and winked at Park Jae Hyun.
"I don't know if it's true or not, but if you are so interested in her, O Kyung-won, do you want me to find someone to give you her phone number? I believe that with your ability, you will be able to see the most real Song Hye Kyo." Park Jae-hyun.
She glanced at him angrily.
"Ani, no need." Chi Jingyuan waved his hands repeatedly and leaned back in his chair to show that he was not interested.
There were so many beautiful female idols around him but he didn't feel much about them, so how could he be interested in Song Hye Kyo, who was more than ten years older than him.
And to be honest, Chi Jingyuan is a bit unsatisfied with the other person's appearance and figure.
The recent scandals really gave them a lot of talking points. After chatting happily for a while, the car got off the highway.
"The rain is getting a bit heavy, Zhichang, drive slower, don't be in a hurry." Park Jae-hyun looked out the window, turned to Cui Zhichang and warned him.
"Nah, I know, brother." Cui Zhichang nodded. At this time, they were already driving very slowly. They were about to reach their destination anyway, so they were not in a hurry. Everything was definitely about safety.
Chi Jingyuan was sitting in the back row, playing with his phone and scrolling through netizens’ comments.
One of them posted a post specifically to blackmail Song Hye Kyo.
When you click on it, you will see a big picture of Song Hye Kyo. Below it is a series of words written "Lee Chang Hoon → Kim Min Jong → Won Bin → Lee Byung Hun → Song Seung Hun → Rain". These are the actors who have worked with her or have had scandals.
The title is ‘What we have in common’, followed by photos of the actors’ surprised expressions. They also look surprised.
Chi Jingyuan couldn't stop laughing as he watched, making up words to curse black people. These people are really talented.
Seeing this, Chi Jingyuan raised his head and prepared to ask again:
"By the way, brother..."
But as soon as the words came out, there was a loud noise from behind, and the entire nanny car was hit with a strong force. Chi Jingyuan felt his body rush forward suddenly, and he instinctively blocked it with his hand to delay it.
The impact was strong, but my head still hit the back of the chair in front of me, and I felt a little dizzy all of a sudden.
Then there was a screeching sound of a sudden brake and the angry screams of Cui Zhichang and Park Jae-hyun in front of him, which lingered in his ears because his mind was a little confused and he couldn't hear clearly for a while.
