The recording went very smoothly, and all the recording work was completed within a few days. The audio and captured images were brought back to CJ for post-production. The two OSTs are expected to be released on August 28th and September 4th respectively.
After recording the ost, I returned to the crew and continued working. The recent shooting tasks have been quite heavy, and I basically have to shoot until the early hours of the morning every day.
However, because of the TV series's popularity, TVN and CJ were very happy, and the treatment of the crew members was also improved a lot, at least the food was raised to a higher level.
The crew members are also very enthusiastic about their work, and they are in full swing every day.
In the past two days, apink's Park Cho-ryong and Yoon Bo-mi have also joined the cast. They will guest play the male and female protagonist's mother in "Reply 1997" when they were young, which can be regarded as an easter egg.
The two of them wore clothes from the 1960s and 1970s, styled their hair in that era, ate rudely, and spoke in different dialects. Their whole image was completely different from their idol status, which looked quite funny.
Their attitude towards Chi Jingyuan has not changed. They are still smiling and chatting politely. It seems that Zheng Eunji is really strict, or Son Naeun has strengthened confidentiality measures.
The two of them stayed on the set for two days and then left. They didn't have much role to play, and Apink also had a lot of activities.
The 18th is Jung Eun Ji's birthday, and the crew even held a small birthday party for her.
The crew gathered in a circle, clapped their hands and sang a congratulatory song, and then the lights were turned off. In the darkness, Chi Jingyuan walked to Zheng Eunji holding the prepared cake with candles.
The camera filmed the whole process and used it as an important part of the behind-the-scenes footage to be released later.
It could be seen that Zheng Endi was really excited. When Chi Jingyuan walked up to him with the cake in his hands, she couldn't help but cry. Her fleshy face was bulging into a ball, her lips were pursed, and she was sniffing.
However, she quickly controlled her emotions, wiped away the remaining tears with her hands, grinned, and showed her signature smile.
Seeing this change, Chi Jingyuan sighed in his heart. Artists cannot show their true emotions in front of the camera. No matter what, they must show their good side.
The next step was to take photos, blow out the candles, and share the cake. Everyone was very happy and had a happy smile on their faces.
Except for Chi Kyung-won who was directly hit with cake paste on his face by Jung Eun-ji.
I don't know if she is celebrating her birthday or venting something else.
Fortunately, it is almost early in the morning, and today's filming is almost completed. Without Chi Jingyuan's scene, having cake smeared on his face will not affect the rest of the filming.
Zheng Eunji must have known this before doing this.
The quality is too low.
Chi Jingyuan thought this while washing his face.
…
During this period, Son Na-eun and Chi Kyung-won were still sending text messages to each other frequently, and they also talked on the phone several times. Her tone and wording became more and more intimate, and she often liked to act coquettishly.
However, the two of them have not seen each other since the last time they were on set.
Chi Jingyuan's shooting tasks during this period are very heavy. Unless he is in good condition that day and progresses quickly, the shooting will usually not end until two or three in the morning.
And he also has to take care of exo-k's activities. Although there is no singing stage these days, after the broadcast of "Reply 1997", the male protagonist Ji Jingyuan gained a lot of attention, and even the K team also
It received a lot of welcome, and several commercial performers took this opportunity to approach them. As long as the price was right, the company accepted the order, which made Team K, who had always been a bit picky, a lot busier.
It is worth mentioning that the prices of exo-k’s previous commercial performances have always been average, lower than those of several other boy groups that debuted at the same time.
In addition, due to the popularity of the TV series, Chi Jingyuan's personal activities have also increased. In addition to the interview schedule that he hates most, there are also some solo pictorials, personal radio invitations, etc.
It can be said that he was really busy during this period. Even if Sun Naen mentioned it several times, he could not spare time.
In other words, rather than staying up late at night and running out after filming, he would rather take more time to rest.
And even if he went to meet him after get off work in the middle of the night, he wouldn't be able to leave the dormitory.
Or can we only say that those who are favored feel confident.
The ninth and tenth episodes were aired on August 21. The average and highest ratings were 3.9% and 4.9%, which was almost no increase compared with the last two episodes aired.
The crew is a little worried, but not too anxious, because the current results are beyond everyone's expectations. Even if the ratings are maintained until the end, this drama is already a very successful TV series.
Moreover, the OST "all for you" sung by Chi Kyung-won and Jung Eun-ji will be officially released on the 28th of the next broadcast. The crew is very confident in this song and believes that it will definitely have a certain boost in ratings by then.
What the crew expected was not wrong.
On August 28, part 1 of the "Reply 1997 Love Story" project was officially released. The sound source of the single "all for you" occupied one place on all Korean music charts as soon as it was released.
The ratings of episodes 11 and 12, which continued to be broadcast in the evening, also increased significantly. The two ratings reached 4.3% and 5.2%, which are about to break the highest ratings record of tvn cable TV station.
And in the evening episode, the OST "all for you" was also played, which aroused the interest of many viewers who had never listened to the song.
The release of ost has increased the popularity of the TV series and has contributed a lot to the increase in ratings.
The broadcast of TV series has also increased the attention of ost. With the popularity of "Reply 1997", the song "all for you" has firmly ranked first in the hourly and daily charts of major music source charts.
For a while, it surpassed the musician psy's "Gangnam Style" which became an unstoppable hit as soon as it was released in July.
It can be said that a good OST and a popular TV series complement each other and have a mutually reinforcing effect.
After the episode aired on the 28th, the entire "Reply 1997" is coming to an end, with only four episodes remaining in the last two weeks.
