The king of Korean entertainment

Finally waited until this day!

April is a month for major updates of Korean dramas.

On March 3st, the last episode of "Boys Over Flowers" was aired. Goo Joon Pyo, played by Lee Min Ho, inherited Shinhwa Group and carried it forward, and Jin Sicho, played by Goo Hye Sun, finally passed the exam after three years of repetition. Medical University, the scene where Gu Junpyo proposes to Jin Sicho at the end brings "Boys Over Flowers" to a successful conclusion.

The ratings as high as 34.8% can be called a small miracle!No one expected that relying on four not-too-professional "flower boys" and the clichéd story of Cinderella and the Prince, they could achieve such excellent results.

In short, "Boys Over Flowers" can be regarded as a milestone for Korean dramas in 09.

The successor to "Boys Over Flowers" is "A Man's Story", which tells the love and hatred between three kinds of men.However, when this TV series was created by big-name screenwriter Song Ji-na and gathered big-name actors such as Park Yong-ha and Kim Kang-woo, when it premiered on April 4, it only ranked first from the bottom with a ratings of 6%.

Eye-popping.

After that, on April 4th, "Mr. Cinderella" starring Kwon Sang-woo and Yoona was broadcast. The ratings of the first episode also did not break through double digits, only 15%, ranking at the bottom of the three major TV dramas at the same time.

disappointment!I don't know how many viewers in front of the TV are disappointed. The big-name screenwriter has suffered from Waterloo, and the combination of big-name actors and popular entertainers has also lost.Now, among the four highly anticipated TV dramas that have been widely publicized before, only "Brilliant Legacy" produced by Jin Shengyuan Company and "Cityhall" by Shen Jinjin's partner have not yet been released.

Countless viewers are worried, will these two TV series be equally disappointing?

Amidst such discussions, April 4 finally ushered in the ratings of the opening weekend of "Brilliant Inheritance" taking over from "City of Glass".

Of these dramas that started airing in April, "Brilliant Legacy" is the most controversial one.First of all, one reason is naturally because it is the first TV series produced by Kim Sung Won Company; secondly, most of the audience of weekend dramas are housewives, and young actors such as Lee Seung Gi, Han Hyo Joo, and Moon Chae Won lead the leading roles. People are full of doubts.

Especially for the two leading actors, Lee Seung-gi only played the leading role once in "Beethoven Virus".Han Hyo Joo's fame is also not obvious.

Director Chen He was just an assistant director of "The Painter of the Wind" before, and the screenwriter Su Xianjing is not considered a first-line screenwriter.In comparison, Jin Shengyuan, the producer, is more famous!

This kind of structure that seems to be a bit "cobbled together" is hard not to make people doubt, but it also makes people look forward to it.

Finally, "Brilliant Legacy" is officially launched!

Xian Yuhuan, 'year-old, the grandson of Zhang Shuzi, the president of "Zhensheng Food", because of his father's death, his mother and grandmother doted on him in every possible way, and because of this, he has developed a personality that is arrogant, defiant, and never considers others. I have no feelings for money or the future.

Gao Yinxing, 24 years old, is the daughter of a construction tycoon. Her mother died when she was 11 years old. Later, her father remarried and formed a new family with her new mother and Seungmi.There is a younger brother who is mentally handicapped but plays the piano very well.

Yoo Seung-mi, 24 years old, is a dignified and calm woman. She had an unfortunate childhood because of her biological father's death, but she has always been a model student in school and has a strong self-esteem. A strong woman.She has always longed for fatherly love, and finally meets Xian Yuhuan, a man who has a warm and firm embrace like her father. The relationship between her and Xian Yuhuan is between a friend and a lover.

The story revolves around the story of Xian Yuhuan and Gao Yinxing who came back from the United States on the same plane and took the wrong bag.

Not only the audience, fans of Jin Shengyuan, but also many people in the entertainment circle are paying attention to this TV series. "Mr. Cinderella" theater temporarily closed Yoona, Taeyeon and others during the event, as well as many actors and production company representatives with different thoughts.

However, what puzzled many viewers was that "Brilliant Inheritance" immediately unfolded the plot as soon as it was broadcast, as if going downstream, with almost no suspense.

Gao Yinxing, who used to be a "princess", faced bankruptcy, his father "death", and the fate of becoming Cinderella; the bad man Xian Yuhuan was as stupid as a pig; Everything is so cliche.

... After the first episode of "Brilliant Inheritance" ended, Jin Shengyuan's mobile phone became busy.

"The audience rating is 16.9%, ranking third." Chen He and the director notified Jin Shengyuan of the statistical audience rating immediately.

"How many ratings?" Taeyeon, Seohyun, Jessica and others.

"Shengyuan oppa, what's the ratings?" Yuner called from the set.

... Jin Shengyuan patiently informed them of the ratings one by one.

Of course, he was only busy for a short period of time, and the only ones who called him were his close friends and artists from the same company.

At the same time, the Internet is full of hustle and bustle, and many netizens are discussing this TV series.

The ratings of the first broadcast of 16.9% are already very good, and the ratings of the first broadcast of "Boys Over Flowers" are only 14.3%.It can be said that the premiere of "Brilliant Legacy" was very successful.

What everyone is discussing is the various characters in this TV series and the development of the plot.Lee Seung Gi is not the male number one with an eye-catching appearance, but his appearance is very popular with older women. He is shy and well-behaved, with good character and learning, and looks harmless. Although it is the first time to challenge the male lead, and He played a character opposite to his own, but he didn't get too many bad words.

Han Hyo Joo, this is a woman as fresh as a wild chrysanthemum.Many male viewers fell in love with "Gao Yinxing" at the first sight, and many people sighed: "This girl looks so clean!" The advantage of this kind of appearance is that even if you don't particularly like her , and it's also hard to hate.

Of course, Bae Soo-bin, Moon Chae-won and other characters were also discussed, but because the first episode of the plot had just aired, everyone was discussing the actors themselves, not too much discussion about the central characters.

However, there are also many viewers who are worried and questioned, thinking that the first episode of "Brilliant Legacy" can achieve such ratings because of the previous vigorous publicity and discussions on the Internet, which has accumulated enough popularity for it!If you want to know the true prospects of this TV series, you need to wait for the ratings after at least four episodes.

There are not many such people, but there are quite a few, and their suspicions are not unreasonable. Even many media reporters did not forget to add a sentence when they commented, "This TV series earned money in advance because of Jin Shengyuan, an off-screen character. Enough eyeballs."

However, Jin Shengyuan didn't pay much attention to these.All he needs to do now is to trust the screenwriter So Hyun-Jing, the director Chen Hyuk, Lee Seung-ki, Han Hyo-joo and other actors.

After finishing the trip that night, Jin Shengyuan called the crew and learned that they were still filming, so he made a special call to order a supper for them, and he didn't bother him.

Back at the company, Jin Shengyuan carefully re-watched the first episode again.During the previous break, he only watched a clip.

Lee Seung Gi's performance is not very good, perhaps because it conflicts with his own image, it makes people who are familiar with him feel a little awkward.

However, on the whole, his acting skills are still very good, especially his willingness to work hard and keep improving——Comment from Director Chen He.

It's not that Kim Sung Won has no "ideas" for Lee Seung Gi, such an artist is a rare asset for any company.In today's entertainment industry, not to mention both good character and learning, even a truly good character artist is rare!Many artists performed very well on the show, media reporters, and TV drama staff all praised them, but in real life, they really bothered the company!

However, Li Shengji politely declined several invitations to Jin Shengyuan, so he had no choice but to give up.

Fortunately, Han Hyo Joo has taken the initiative to vote for the company.

Jin Shengyuan can already directly judge that after "Brilliant Inheritance", Han Hyo Joo will definitely become popular.

After watching the first episode, Kim Sung-won couldn't help sighing: "Ginger is still hot!" In the TV series, there is only one person who really surprised him with his acting skills, and that is the role of stepmother Baek Seung-hee played by Kim Mi-sook.Although she hasn't really played yet, she has already portrayed the image of this hypocritical woman very well.

After turning off the computer, Jin Shengyuan was going to take a shower.

However, he had just changed his clothes when the phone rang.

"Yooner?" Jin Shengyuan answered the phone strangely.

"Sheng Yuan oppa, what are you doing?" Yun'er's voice was light.

"Getting ready to take a bath, what's the matter?" Jin Shengyuan put on his coat and asked.

"It's nothing, I just left the set, I'm fine on the way, I'll make a harassing call for you." Yun'er said with a smile.

"...I'll teach you, close your eyes, and start counting one sheep, two sheep..." Jin Shengyuan said after being speechless.

"Do you think I'm a three-year-old child?" Yun'er shouted dissatisfied.

"No," Jin Shengyuan said, took a breath, and added: "I think you are a three-and-a-half-year-old child."

"..." After Yun'er laughed speechlessly, she suddenly said: "oppa! You don't even let me appear in your TV series, and the ratings of the first broadcast are almost twice as high as ours..."

"You can't talk nonsense like this, do you hear me?" Jin Shengyuan interrupted Yun'er directly, and said seriously.Although he knew that Yun'er was just making a joke out of nowhere, but if others found out, there would be problems.

"I see, hee hee..." Yun'er smiled embarrassedly, and she made such an outrageous joke because she was too relaxed for a while.

"How long will you be back in the dormitory?" Jin Shengyuan asked suddenly.

"What's wrong? Do you think I'm annoying?" Yun'er shouted dissatisfied.

"Let me figure out if I will freeze into a popsicle when you return to the dormitory?" Jin Shengyuan said.

"Ah—oppa, are you naked? It's a pity that my mobile phone can't make video calls... Hee hee, I won't bother you anymore, goodbye!" Yuner said, and hung up the phone.
