Chapter 18 Script Reading

April 1, 4 p.m.

Sheng Bingxu brought Jin Qixuan and Park Bo Gum to CJ-TVN TV station in advance.

parking
Take the elevator to the large conference room on the 13th floor.

There were already standing cameras in the house at this time, and some staff were tidying up the venue.

Kim Ki-hyun and Park Bo-gum sat in the fourth and fifth seats on the left under the guidance of the staff.

The script reading session started at five o'clock. Due to Kim Ki-hyun's personal habit, Park Bo-gum was forced to arrive an hour early.

not for a while
Seeing Liu Huiying walk into the house
Jin Qixuan smiled and waved at her: "Huiying~"

"Yeah! You..."

Jin Qixuan quickly made a hushing gesture and pointed at the standing camera next to him.

Liu Huiying looked in the direction of Jin Qixuan's finger and pursed her lips.

turn around
He wrinkled his nose at Jin Qixuan and made a gesture as if to hit him.

Jin Qixuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said nothing more.

"You know her?"

Park Bo Gum asked with some confusion after noticing the intimate interaction between the two before.

"Ah, I reviewed the script with her a few days ago. Shin PDnim asked us to show the feelings between close friends, so naturally we have to find the state in advance."

"Oh……"

Park Bo Gum looked at Liu Huiying, and they politely nodded and greeted each other.

after a while
Lee Hye-ri makes a stunning appearance.

She is currently filming a hair dye commercial with her fellow members, and her blonde hair is very eye-catching.

Because of the location, she saw Jin Qixuan as soon as she entered the door.

Because of her hair color, Jin Qixuan naturally noticed her.

Two people looking at each other
Jin Qixuan stood up, gave her a thumbs up and smiled brightly.

Lee Hye-ri smiled brightly and came over: "Long time no see!"

"Hey, long time no see, your hair color is so fashionable!"

Lee Hye-ri, who was grinning at first, showed Kim Ki-hyeon how to make her smile disappear, with a bitter face:
"But this hair color makes me look so dark!"

"People with darker skin look healthier, like SISTAR's Hyolyn."

"But...I'm a sweet girl!"

Jin Qixuan pursed his lips and did not answer the question. He turned to introduce Park Bo Gum to Lee Hye-ri:

"This is Park Bo Gum who plays A-taek, my close friend."

"Aniha Saiyo."

The two of them bowed to each other in sync.

Park Bo Gum is scheduled to partner with Bae Joo Hyun in May to save the ratings of Music Bank.

Girls Day returned in early July, and this was the first time the two officially met. It was just a routine greeting.

then
The staff guided Lee Hye-ri to sit next to Park Bo-gum, the third seat from the left.

therefore
Kim Kye-hyun and Lee Hye-ri were chatting across Park Bo-gum, and when there was a topic that Kim Kye-hyun couldn't continue, he would pull Park Bo-gum to join in.

The three of them had a good chat.

After a while, the actors came in one after another.

No matter who it is, Jin Qixuan has to stand up and bow to greet them.

After all, I am the only one who has not made my debut yet, and I am of a low generation.

Even Lee Hye-ri and Park Bo-gum stood up and greeted them.

This was the first official meeting of all the cast members of "Reply 1988".

If they know each other, they will chat with each other and wait for the show to start.

If you don’t know it, just watch the lines and wait for it to start.

quickly
Director Shin Won-ho and screenwriter Lee Yoo-jung walked into the house surrounded by staff.

Seeing the two people come in, everyone stood up and bowed to greet them.

"Shin PDnim!"

"Writer Li nim!"

After returning the greeting, the two sat at the front, one on the left and one on the right, and began to introduce themselves.

"Most of the people here are new faces, but there are also a few old friends. Let me introduce myself. I am Shin Won-ho, the director of Reply 1988."

After everyone applauded, Li Youjing introduced herself:

"Hello everyone, I'm screenwriter Li Youjing. This is the third TV series I've worked on with PD Shin. This drama is more about family and neighborhood love, and less about romance. Let's work together in the future." "Pa pa pa..."

Subsequently
The first actor on the left, Cheng Dongyi, stood up and introduced himself:

"Hello everyone, I'm actor Sung Dong-il, and I'm a father for the third time."

As soon as Cheng Dongyi opened his mouth, he made the audience laugh, which made the nervous new actors feel relieved.

then
Actress Li Yihua beside him followed suit and introduced herself to everyone with a smile:
"Aningha Saiyo, I'm actress Lee Il-hwa, and like my husband, I'm also a mother for the third time."

After the applause, it was Lee Hye-ri's turn.

"Aniha Saiyo, Girls Day Lee Hye Ri Yi Mi Da, I play Deok Sun in the drama, I am honored to be in this drama. In the future, if there are any shortcomings, please forgive me, I will work hard."

Lee Hye-ri deliberately lowered her voice, which was as sweet as sugar dipped in honey, and she had a timid smile on her face, which made people like her more.

Moreover, she did not deliberately hide her identity as an idol, but instead mentioned her team very directly.

Not all idols have this kind of courage.

Everyone applauded, and it was Park Bo Gum's turn:
"Aniha Seyo, Park Bo Gum Imida, I play the role of Aze in the drama, I am very happy to be able to film with you all, please take care of me in the future."

Park Bo Gum bowed and sat down, and the next person to sit down was Kim Ki-hyun.

Jin Qixuan cleared his throat, stood up and said loudly:
“Aninha Saiyo, new actor Kim Ki-Hyun Yi Mida, the character I play in the drama is Sun Woo.

I feel deeply honored but also a little nervous to be able to work with so many amazing senior actors in my first TV drama.

However, I also have enough confidence to play my role well. I will work with everyone in a very handsome manner and work hard, Kang Sang Hami!"

After he finished speaking, Jin Qixuan bowed and sat down, and applause broke out in the room.

Park Bo Gum nudged Kim Kye Hyun with his elbow and asked in a low voice, "Why are you nervous? How come I didn't notice?"

"It's because you're next to me."

"Really?"

Jin Qixuan didn't say anything, but gave him a thumbs up.

Park Bo Gum smiled with his white teeth and gave Kim Ki Heon two heart shapes in return.

The two people's little actions did not affect the introduction of the next actor.

"Aninha Saiyo, Yoo Jun Yeol Imida, I play Jung Hwan in the drama, please take care of me."

……

……

The actors were introduced one after another. No matter who they were, even if they were supporting roles with very few parts, the rest of the audience watched their self-introduction carefully and applauded when they finished.

After the actors finished introducing themselves one by one, director Shin Won-ho looked around and asked:

"Have you read the script?"

Everyone responded in unison: "Yes."

"Okay, let's start now."

As soon as Director Shen finished speaking, the actors began to concentrate on their lines.

In fact, this kind of reading session is more like a way for the actors to familiarize themselves with the show in advance.

It's okay to memorize the lines, but it's not conducive to getting into the role in such a noisy environment.

At the beginning, everyone was a little serious and reserved when reading the lines, and they were not very relaxed.

But as the plot progressed step by step and the lines were very interesting, the scene soon became joyful.

Especially the part where Liu Huiying cursed Lee Hye-ri and her innocent brother got beaten up, Jin Qixuan's shoulders kept twitching when he heard it.

Soon, the time came to half past nine.

The script reading session, which lasted for four and a half hours, officially came to an end.

After the show ended, the actors did not disband. Instead, the production team invited them to a dinner party.

The young people had one table and the older actors had another.

The funniest one is Kim Sung-kyun, who is six years older than his "son" Yoo Jun-yeol and was assigned to the older table...

There is not much to follow for the young actors, they just sit wherever they want.

Because of his role, Jin Qixuan took the initiative to sit next to Liu Huiying.

Seeing this, Li Huili thought about it, and sat down next to Jin Qixuan.

She did not forget the task Jin Yarong assigned to her.

Lee Hye-ri's actions confused Park Bo-gum, who wanted to sit next to Kim Ki-hyun.

The latter scratched his head, looked around, and chose to sit opposite Jin Qixuan.

Because everyone's age difference is not too big and there are no very famous actors, everyone can talk about similar topics and the atmosphere is quite harmonious.

Relationships heat up much faster than a script read.
