Chapter 60 OST Recording

otherwise they wouldn't come here to take classes. And they are very interested in EXO, the biggest group on the peninsula right now. A few of them are even EXO fans and are wearing their same clothes...For a while, became the hottest topic. If people who enjoy watching dramas don't talk about it when they chat, they seem out of touch with current trends.

And the male lead, Yun-jae, played by Ji Chang-wook, and the female lead, Shiyuan, played by Jung Eun-ji, also became hot words, receiving countless praises.

Before the drama was aired, Jung Eun Ji was scolded by many EXO and Yuan fans because of her kissing scene with Park Ki Woong. They raged at Jung Eun Ji in Apk chat rooms and fan groups, calling her a "slut," "ugly," and for "defiling" their oppa.

However, as time went on, the plot gradually deepened, and most fans' anger gradually dissipated. Many rational fans also advised, after all, it was filming a TV series, this kind of acting was normal. Their behavior only brought trouble to Ji Jingyuan besides any gains.

Jeon Ji-hyun's performance as Cheong Shi-won is close to her own personality, making the character very three-dimensional. She vividly portrays the look and feel of a starstruck girl.

Even though her character in the drama can be unreasonable, prone to violence, and blindly devoted to idols, she's not overly disliked. Many people love her portrayal because it feels real, like a reflection of some part of their own inner memories.

And Chi Jingyuan is even more so. The role he plays, Yun Zai, was already quite eye-catching, and screenwriter Li Youzhen even changed some of the script because of his performance, adding weight and charm to this character.

Generally speaking, Yun Zai is an individual with excellent qualities. He's a gifted student in school and enjoys popularity among his peers. However, when faced with advances from other girls, he remains aloof and coldly refuses them. He only opens up to his childhood sweetheart, Cheng Shiyuan.

Cheng Shiyuan in the play would often punch and kick Yun Zai. A few times, he'd rush over like a whirlwind and kick him out of frame. Yun Zai never got angry; he just furrowed his brow with an air of resignation. But deep in his eyes, there was an undeniable tenderness.

This kind of character setup, where someone is deeply devoted to one person since childhood, is already very popular. And with the extremely handsome Ji Jingyuan playing the role, it becomes even more so. In contrast, the audience's impression of Yun Zai is also very deep and favorable.

Being too attractive, whether male or female actors, can actually be detrimental to acting because their appearance is so striking that the audience tends to focus on the actor's face and overlook the plot, making it difficult to immerse themselves in the story.

And his gradually skilled acting also received a lot of praise, the most common evaluation is: 'Although the male protagonist has a very good appearance, when he acts, he will not make people feel out of place, but instead will integrate into it and become more immersed in this role.'

Because of the huge success of Ji Chang Wook and Jung Eun Ji, their group EXO and Apink have also seen a rise in popularity. Recently, EXO's album sales have increased significantly.

The production team is also very excited about the show's popularity and has taken many measures to further boost viewership.

…………

The entrance of the ** Corporation building.

"Is this the place"

"Just follow me, the recording studio and the recording teacher are already ready." Ji Jingyuan nodded and led a group of people into the ** company building.

Due to the show's immense popularity, the production team seized the opportunity to increase promotion and exposure by releasing an OST. They chose the male and female leads, Ji Chang-wook and Jung Eun-ji, as the singers. The OST features two songs, including a re-arranged cover of "All For You," a popular song by the former Korean trio COOL.

Another song is "Our Love Like This".

This release of OST is collectively called the "Answer Me 1997 LOVE STORY" project, divided into part 1 and part 2.

part1 is the single "All For You", part2 is the single "Our Love Like This".

Today is the recording day. After much deliberation, the location was set at ** company's recording studio. Besides the two protagonists, tvN and CJE&M both sent people to film the whole process. The footage will be used for future program episodes and behind-the-scenes content.

"Oh wow, is this ** company It's really impressive."

After entering, Jung Eun-ji gave a performance as if she were an entertainer, exclaiming loudly.

The camera is now rolling, focused on the leading man and woman.

"Are you on a variety show Even if it is a variety show, your expressions are too exaggerated."

Ji Jingyuan didn't beat around the bush and directly exposed Zheng Endi's hypocrisy.

What about this building connects it to the word "magnificent"

"You..."

Jeong Eun-ji turned her head as if to lash out, but the cameras flashing red behind her reminded her that she was being filmed. She glared at Park Ji-won with resentment before forcing a smile.

"Well, you're really acting like you're on a variety show now. Your expressions are great, very lively, but your smile is a bit stiff."

Chi Jingyuan gave her a thumbs-up, his praise laced with teasing.

"Oh!" Jung Eun-ji couldn't help but pat him.

"Haha..." After that, both the VJ and PD couldn't help but laugh. This natural interaction between the male and female leads is great, TV drama viewers must love it.

** Entertainment is surprised and delighted by the huge success of "Reply 1997," and has been very cooperative with all promotional activities. After all, this is a great opportunity for Ji Sung.

Everyone I met along the way smiled and nodded. I even ran into f(x)'s Na Park-gyul, and after exchanging a few pleasantries with Ji Chang-wook, I greeted the camera before taking my leave.

Chi Jingyuan and Na are not very familiar. If it were Sunny, I estimate there would be a lot of conversation, which would increase the shooting volume by a lot.

Chi Jingyuan led them to the recording studio on the third floor, where people had been waiting for a long time.

Since they've come to ** Company, it's only natural for EXO-K to make an appearance. After all, the K team is the group that includes Ji Kyung-won. It's perfectly normal and expected to use this opportunity to promote their music while they're here.

The other five members of Team K were sitting on the sofas in the recording studio, waiting. As soon as they saw someone enter, they immediately stood up and lined up.

"1, 2, 3."

"We are one! Anihaseyo, we are EXO."

Chi Jingyuan walked to the team, and in Kim Jun-myeon's countdown, he raised his thumb and waved to the camera.

"Oh, he's so handsome!..." Jung Eon-ji laughed and clapped her hands, and the staff behind her followed suit.

Kim Jun-myeon, on behalf of EXO-K, gave a brief introduction to the group facing the camera. He thanked the production crew for taking care of Kim Kyung-won and after promoting for a while, they bid farewell with their members.

After the staff placed the cameras in the recording studio, they were ready to start recording.

Haven't you all practiced privately beforehand

As the official recording began, sound engineer Anto Jian addressed the two.

Inside, we have all trained.

"Okay, let's try the sound first."

First published on the繁體 Novels Network. Jingyuan walked to the parking lot, preparing to get in his car and leave.After opening the car door, he suddenly saw Jung Soo-jung getting into the car in the distance. Ki-seung smiled at her and m...
