Volume 2 2010 Chapter 256 Song Ji Hyo's Positioning
It took Yoo Jae Suk a long time to recover from his shock. As a national MC, it had been a long time since anything had made him lose his composure like this.
This 16-year-old boy really exceeded his expectations.
However, the bigger surprise is yet to come.
“Finally, let’s talk about Ji Hyo’s nuna.
In fact, I think that among these new MCs, Ji Hyo-na is the key to whether the show can be successful or not."
As soon as Yi Haoyan finished speaking, Liu Zaishi smiled and stretched out his hand to high-five him.
"Oh! I really am! Oh my god!"
Obviously, Master Liu agreed with his judgment.
The reason why "Family Outing" has achieved such outstanding results has a lot to do with the female characters among its members.
Especially Lee Hyori's unique performance.
So when it comes to "Running Man", the production team also wants to replicate this.
Song Ji Hyo was soon added as a regular member, and later Lizzy was added, in an attempt to replicate the past successful experience.
But so far there has been no obvious effect, and everyone is quite disappointed.
"We thought so too, but it doesn't work well now. Haoyan, do you have any suggestions?"
By now, Yoo Jae-seok was asking for advice, and he was convinced by the abilities shown by the other party.
"Although Ji Hyo-nu is a successful actress, she is still not as popular as Lee Hyo-ri in "Family Outing". It is normal that there was no effect at the beginning. It takes time for her charm to slowly show up.
There are currently two female MCs in the show. Lizzy is too young and her idol status has restrictions, so her room to perform is limited .
The real burden lies with Ji Hyo-nu.
Judging from the current shows, she is still a little restrained and may not have clearly defined her boundaries. I don’t know how far she can go in variety shows.”
"But I think Ji Hyo has done a great job in the show! She is very relaxed and works very hard."
Jin Zhihao couldn't help but say something.
He felt that Song Ji Hyo, as an actress, had already been very humble in variety shows, and was completely different from the actresses he had worked with in previous filmings.
"Haha~ Wow~ I didn't expect Zhihao brother to be so innocent. Is he satisfied with this level?"
Yi Haoyan sneered, pointed at the other party, and listed Song Ji Hyo's resume.
"Ji Hyo-Nuna is 29 years old this year. She debuted in 2001 and has been working in the entertainment industry for 9 years.
In 2003, he starred in the horror film "Girls' High School Ghost Story 3: Fox Stairs".
In 2004, he starred in the action film "Precognitive Energy" with Gao Xiu and Jiang Chengzhen.
In 2006, he starred in his first film and television work, co-starring with Yoon Eun-hye, Joo Ji-hoon and others in the idol drama "Goong".
She then played the original wife of Jumong, the founding king of Goguryeo, Li Suya in the costume romance drama "Jumong". For her outstanding performance in the drama, she was nominated for the Best New Actress in the TV category at the 43rd Baeksang Arts Awards.
It can be said that as an actress, Ji Hyo-na's development is relatively smooth. She has always had good resources and the quality of the dramas she has participated in is good.
But until then, she was not a protagonist and did not receive much attention.
So this sister began to break through herself and look for opportunities.
If Korean actresses want to become famous, besides catching up with good works, the most common method is to stand out!
How to stand out? Of course, it is a large-scale performance!
In 2007, Ji Hyo-nuna co-starred with Lim Chang-jung in the sex comedy film "Sex is Zero 2", playing the popular player Kyung-ya of the university swimming club. She was also nominated for the Most Popular Actress in the Film Department of the 44th Baeksang Arts Awards for this role; afterwards, she partnered with Kim Heechul to host the variety show "Inkigayo" for the first time.
This breakthrough gave her hope of success, so she chose to continue on this path.
In 2008, she co-starred with Jo In-sung and Joo Jin-mo in the drama film "A Frozen Flower", in which she played the role of Queen Bakshiri of Goryeo, who was born in the Yuan Dynasty. The film topped the Korean box office for two consecutive weeks after its release, and Ji Hyo was nominated for the Most Popular Actress in the Film Department of the 45th Baeksang Arts Awards for this role.
Then in 2010, this sister began to try to appear in variety shows. Do you know what this means? "
"What?" Jin Zhihao was a little confused.
"She did receive some rewards after she chose to break through the boundaries, but she didn't win any awards that really mattered. Even a movie like A Frozen Flower, which performed well, only had one nomination for Popular Actress. What's the point of making such a big sacrifice?
Moreover, she has seldom appeared in movies since 2008, which shows that she has hit a low point in her acting career.
So Ji Hyo started to turn to variety shows.
This sister is not the harmless naive girl shown in the show. The dignified, gentle and beautiful sister is always just an appearance.
How could a 29-year-old actress with no background and only 9 years of debut be a rising star?
This sister has eaten more salt than you and I have eaten rice, and has walked across longer bridges than the roads we have walked!
It is wrong to measure her with today's standards. Although her popularity is not as good as Lee Hyori, this sister's experience is not simple at all.
From her decision, we can tell that this sister is a smart woman who is willing to take risks and also take back! Her current role is too restrictive for her.
As long as she wants, Ji Hyo can be the ACE! "
These blunt truths shocked Jin Zhihao so much that he even forgot to eat the meat.
However, the knowledgeable Mr. Liu was relatively calm.
He has seen a lot of the bizarre things in the entertainment industry, and Song Ji Hyo is already considered a persistent person. Who would become a regular on variety shows if they are a well-developed actor?
There are three actors in this team. Lee Kwang Soo and Song Joong Ki are newcomers, while Song Ji Hyo joined because her career was not going well.
This is human nature.
In the Korean entertainment industry, actors have the highest status, followed by singers, idols, and finally variety show hosts.
This is also a very realistic thing.
"Don't think that I am slandering Ji Hyo-nu by saying that!"
Yi Haoyan felt a bit of a headache when he saw Jin Zhihao's surprised expression.
Is this brother too naive? Can he handle Sister Eun-hee in the future?
"Ji Hyo-no-na is not only beautiful but also smart. What's more commendable is that she has some persistence and bottom line, which is not easy. It's not . I believe she chose to participate in variety shows because she really wants to do well, but she needs some methods.
In the current show, she still cares about her image and tries her best to maintain her position as a beautiful actress. This part can actually be adjusted so that the audience can see a more real beautiful woman. "
"A more realistic beautiful woman? What does Haoyan mean by this?"
Yoo Jae-suk now completely treats Yi Hao-yeon as a peer and doesn't think there is anything wrong with what he said.
"First of all, Ji Hyo is very beautiful, but not the kind that comes from plastic surgery. It turns out that all the real beauties in Korea are actresses!
But being too beautiful will make people feel distant, which is not in line with the requirements of variety shows. So we need to make Ji Hyo-nu in the variety show more real.
For example, in the show now, Brother Shi sometimes catches this sister distracted and dazed and cues her. This is a very successful attempt.
A beauty who is dazed is still a beauty. It does not destroy her charm but makes her look more real.
In addition, the couple setting with Gary can be more realistic, with quarrels, dislike, touching moments, and occasional indecision. After all, she is a beauty! She can be a little willful.
Finally, I think it could be a little bolder. Judging from this sister's past experiences, she must be a soft-hearted person. She can appropriately show her fierce side, which will be a great contrast. However, you have to be careful about the scale, or you will get scolded. "
"Ah~~~~We really came to the right place today! Come on! Let's drink some wine! Haoyan is not yet an adult, Zhihao, please drink with me !"
Liu Jae-suk asked the waiter to bring wine and was obviously very happy.
"I used to not believe there are geniuses in this world, but today I finally saw one! The advice you gave me about Ji Hyo is really appropriate!
I have an idea, call her Bad Ji Hyo!
First let Kwang Soo start by accusing her, and then slowly show some details of accidentally saying dirty words. Basically, it is very successful to this extent! Oh my god! I am so happy today!
Haoyan! How did you come up with these ideas? "
"Haha, I mainly like the current variety shows, from "Love Letter" and "Xman" to "Infinite Challenge" and "Two Days and One Night". In fact, variety shows also have many highlights and are a very important part of the Korean Wave!"
Yi Haoyan praised with a smile.
The respect for variety shows was evident in his words, which made Yoo Jae-suk very happy.
The meal was a great pleasure for both hosts and guests. Liu Dashen drank very happily. In the end, Jin Zhihao sent him home. Before leaving, he made an agreement with the boy that they must get closer to each other if they had the chance in the future.
Now he has to rush back to adjust the next shoot and strive for immediate results.
