Peninsula Entertainment started from Reply 1988

Chapter 184 Everyone Crying
It is a tradition of Dispatch News to expose celebrity romances on January 1 every year.

D Agency was founded in 2010 and is an online news group established by journalists from Seoul Sports.

Because it is independent, it is not subject to the constraints and jurisdiction of all Korean TV stations, and it has always been able to expose whatever it wants.
Because it exposes the love affairs between top stars, D agency is known as the "No. 1 paparazzi of the peninsula" and has always attracted the attention of Chinese and Korean netizens.

Such as Rain & Kim Tae Hee in 2013;
2014 Lee Seung Gi & Im Yoona; Taeyeon & Baekhyun;

2015: Lee Jung-jae & Lim Se-ryung; Lee Min-ho & Bae Su-ji; Kim Woo-bin & Shin Min-ah;
In 2016, Kim Junsu & Hani; Kai & Soojung; Seolhyun & Zico.

Of course there are many more besides these, but the above-mentioned people are all confirmed and acknowledged by both parties.

This year's 2017 is really awesome, with two couples, Song Joong-ki & Song Hye-kyo, and Ryu Jun-yeol & Lee Hye-ri, becoming popular.

What’s even more amazing is that these two couples are the kind that if you dare to reveal it, I will officially announce it…

This move not only made fans of the two dramas ecstatic, but also solidified D agency's reputation as the "No. 1 paparazzi."

Because of the exposure of the relationship between Yoo Jun-yeol and Lee Hye-ri, the fans of 1988, the "dog-sin party", were ecstatic. The original score of 1988 on Naver's online review of 3.8 began to gradually warm up and temporarily settled at 6.8.

What’s more interesting is that Lee Ji-eun, who made the greatest contribution to the exposure of the relationship between the two, was jokingly called the concert of Lee Ji-eun the “grave of underground love affairs” by netizens.

Netizens also called on Li Zhien to cooperate with D agency, hold more concerts, and expose more underground couples...

Although the popularity of the CP romance in the first two national hit dramas was very high, it still did not exceed the popularity of the new national hit drama "Goblin" which is currently being aired.

In the latest two episodes, Park Joong-won, who only existed in the first episode, appeared as a ghost.

His appearance means that Ji Eun-tak is about to fall into an unprecedented crisis (the brand on the back of her neck that protected her from harm has disappeared).

After being rescued by Lee Dong Wook, Ji Eun Tak learned that if he pulled out the sword from the goblin's chest, he would die; if he didn't pull it out, he would die. This was their fate.

It is also God’s punishment for ghosts.

Chi Eun-tak, who couldn't bear to see the ghost die, chose to leave.

The underworld messenger Lee Dong Wook was forced to release his self-forgotten past life memories because he abused his power to save Ji Eun Tak.

At this moment, he finally understood why he cried when he saw the portrait of the princess, and he also knew that the king who made the ghosts angry was actually himself.

Then, flashbacks were inserted from Wang Li's perspective.

In the silent night, with the woman's painful screams and a loud cry, a child was born.

This child is the previous life of the messenger of hell, Li.

However, before he was born, his father, who was originally a king, had died.

It was because of the death of the previous king that Li's mother, due to her humble status, was bullied and excluded by the previous king's concubines. She eventually became ill and died of depression.

As the posthumous son of the deceased king, Li had countless brothers and princes above him.

Moreover, his mother was not of noble status and he had no relatives to support him, so his status was very low and, like his mother, he was often bullied.

Even Li's biological elder brother who inherited the throne did not give him any help, so Li lived a very miserable life since childhood. No one in the palace belonged to him. No matter what he did, he had to do it himself and act according to other people's wishes.

All these factors have made Li a cowardly and indecisive person.

No matter from which perspective, Li had no hope of inheriting the throne, and his final fate was the same as his mother's, a silent death.

In such an identity context, it is easy to have a good impression of those who extend a helping hand and become the only reliance in your heart.

But at this time, Park Jung-won appeared.

After meeting Park Jung-won, a series of strange things happened around Li, and the crown prince who was supposed to inherit the throne died (Li's nephew, the son of his eldest brother).

The suspicious princes also died (other possible successors), and finally, even the eldest brother who was the king died.

Therefore, in the entire Goryeo, apart from Li, no one else could legitimately be the king.

Park Jung-won cleared all obstacles for Li and successfully pushed him to the supreme throne.

Since this unimaginable thing happened, Li naturally obeyed Park Jung-won's words. They were more like father and son than father and son.

But in fact, Li was just a nominal leader who was sidelined by Park Jung-won.

Park Jung-won, who holds great power and is second only to the emperor, is the ruler of the country. Although he is not a king in name, he is better than a king.

As Li grew up, he learned through rumors in the palace that the royal family's previously mentioned genetic disease was actually caused by poisoning by people sent by Park Jung-won.

This also made Li feel afraid of Park Jung-won, and he was even more submissive in court meetings and did not dare to refute his opinions.

Before Kim Shin set out to attack the Jurchens, he received an emergency order from his lord (Li's eldest brother) to let his sister marry Li to protect the royal family's lifeline.

Since Kim Sun entered the palace, Li's only support in the palace changed from Park Jung-won to his own queen.

A clever queen, who had the powerful support of her family behind her, and replaced her position in Li's heart.

Therefore, Park Jung-won must eliminate Kim Shin, who threatens his position in the court, and Kim Sun, who threatens his position in the king's heart.

During Jin Xin's expedition against the Jurchens, he was ambushed because he was unfamiliar with the Jurchen native terrain. In the end, it was his bravery that saved him from being wiped out.

But at that time the country was facing foreign threats, and Park Jung-won had to rely on the brave Kim Shin to defend the country, so even if he was defeated, he would only be dismissed.

When the Jurchens learned that Kim Shin had been dismissed, they immediately mobilized their troops to invade the Goryeo border.

Faced with the national crisis, Park Jung-won had no choice but to reinstate Kim Shin to his original position, grant him military power, and order him to attack the Jurchens.

Before Kim Shin went on this expedition, Li privately summoned Kim Shin to the palace, gave him the royal sword, and told him to stay away from here and never come back regardless of whether he won or lost the battle. He also hoped to protect him from being persecuted by Park Jung-won while allowing him to live with Kim Sun.

After all, without Kim Shin, a powerful relative, Kim Sun would be just a puppet to Park Jung-won, and the two of them could continue to live as a pair of star-crossed lovers.

But, at this time, Jin Xin is a human being, and as a human being, he has shortcomings.

Kim Shin's shortcoming is his poor political sense.

All he was thinking about at this moment was to make amends for his crime and avenge his previous humiliation.

So, Jin Xin didn't say anything, but just took the king's sword and ordered his troops to go to war.

And in this battle, Jin Xin succeeded, conquering nine Jurchen cities in a row, leaving countless corpses and rivers of blood.

If the Jurchen envoys had not come to cede territory and seek peace, Kim Shin would have almost been wiped out by the Jurchens.

When the news of Kim Shin's great victory reached the capital, the whole country celebrated.

However, there was only one person who was unhappy, and that was Park Jung-won.

Without external threats, Jin Xin's role would not be so important.

He also knew that after this battle, Kim Shin's prestige and reputation had reached its peak.

If he doesn't eradicate it, when Li reaches the age to rule the country, he will be close to death.

And then, there was the opening scene of the first episode, where Wang Li was forced to kill Jin Xin and mistakenly trusted the treacherous minister.

After that, Wang Li became depressed and cried every day.

When Jin Shan died, Li Zeng lost his temper and scolded Park Jung-won in front of all the civil and military officials in the court. This resulted in Park Jung-won, the only one like his father, planning to use poison to end the life of this uncontrollable king.

Li's life was full of misfortunes, lack of family affection, and unrequited love.

In the end, he made the only active choice in his life - committing suicide by taking poison.

He knew long ago that the bowl of medicine was poisonous, and he could have chosen not to drink it.

But in the end, Li, who had no attachment to life, hand-painted a portrait of Jin Shan, fearing that he would not die, and drank three bowls of poison...

After Li's death.

Kim Shin resurrected as a ghost, came to the palace, and stabbed Park Jung-won to death with a sword.

At the end of this episode, Lee Dong Wook stood high on the stairs, watching Kim Shin walking towards him step by step, with tears streaming down his face.

After two episodes, the ratings rose again by 2%, reaching a national average of 14%.

In the flashbacks of these two episodes, Jin Qixuan's acting as the young Li was so explosive that the topic #Jin Qixuan's acting skills# quickly topped the TV drama hot topic list. The comments that Jin Qixuan had been scolded as a "stupid monarch" for a month disappeared, and were replaced by "My lords, follow me to raise an army to serve the king!"

[This purple potato monster really makes me angry!!!]

[Li's life was so miserable... The only time he chose to commit suicide, he became a messenger from the underworld.]

[From this perspective, Wang Li is the most tragic character in this drama. The love story between the goblins is so sweet! ]

[No, the worst ones are the ghosts. The gods have always been on Wang Li's side, whether in ancient times or modern times.]

[Dehua (Butterfly): Is there anything wrong with me standing on my own side? ]

[Reply to the above: Hahahaha…]

……

With the heated discussions online, the "Goblin" crew is currently filming the thirteenth episode in full swing.

The main plot of this episode is cruel, with everyone crying and no one can leave work with a smile on their face.

The plot about Kim Ki-hyeon is about him bursting into tears after learning that the ghost is completely dead.

“Ready, 3…2…1, go!”

Gong Liu sat on the chair and handed the credit card to Jin Qixuan calmly.

"what!"

Jin Qixuan covered his mouth and said in shock:

"Card...? Credit card? For me?!"

"This is your reward."

Jin Qixuan was confused three times:
"Reward? Why should I get a reward? I haven't done anything worthy of a reward?"

Although he said so, Kata still put the money into his pocket silently.

Gong Liu sighed, patted the back of Jin Qixuan's head with a kind look, and said with relief:

"It's really hard for you to grow up like this."

"Uncle, I love you."

As he said that, Jin Qixuan smiled and gave Gong Liu a thumbs up and a wink.

Gong Liu still had that kind face, touching the back of Jin Qixuan's head, and said in the same tone as before:
"I'm sorry I couldn't catch your improvisation."

"Hahahahaha..."

Gong Yoo's serious look made Kim Ki-hyeon burst into laughter instantly.

"OK! Cut! Pass!"

Gong Yoo was shocked: "Ah? Passed!? This also passed!?"

"Correct."

"Oh... it's amazing."

Gong Yoo rubbed his forehead in disbelief, then stood up and left.

The next shot shows Jin Qixuan sitting there, looking at the credit card, thinking of the person and shedding tears.

"Director, just cry, right? No need to say any lines?"

"What do you want to say?"

"Gold bars, uncle, why didn't you leave the gold bars for me?"

Li Yingfu imagined the scene and shook his head:

"No, this episode doesn't need to be funny, just crying is fine."

"Ok."

After Jin Qixuan returned to his original position and built up his emotions, the filming began.

In the close-up of the camera's face, Jin Qixuan's eyes gradually became misty, and there were tears in his eyes as he looked at the credit card.

Then, bean-sized tears fell down Jin Qixuan's face, drop by drop, crystal clear, and hit his credit card.

The sound of tears hitting the card is Dehua's silent longing for Jin Xin.

Then, Jin Qixuan put down the credit card, wiped the tears from his cheeks, stood up and looked around the room.

Although Jin Xin is no longer here, there are traces of his presence everywhere in the house. His laughter and warm words have always lingered in Jin Qixuan's ears.

When Jin Qixuan's gaze rested on the steps.

The scene of Gong Yoo comforting himself when he was crying helplessly because of his grandfather's death reappeared in his mind.

In an instant, Jin Qixuan burst into tears again.

Then, Jin Qixuan slowly sat down on the steps, leaned his head on the handrail, and raised his hand to imitate Jin Xin's kind and gentle movements when he touched his head.

Finally, the movement slowly stopped, and the silent crying that had been suppressed for a long time could no longer be controlled, and sobbing sounds gradually rose.

Kim Ki-hyeon's crying scene was relatively restrained. He didn't throw a tantrum like Hyun-soo in "Bloody Anger", with tears and snot mixed together, and it was heartbreaking to watch him cry.

Jin Qixuan understands that Dehua at this stage has no one to protect him from the wind and rain because of the death of his grandfather and uncle.

And he will have to face everything in the future by himself. He needs to become mature, steady and strong.

Until he felt his nose was about to run, Jin Qixuan slowly raised his hands to cover his face and began to cry.

"Okay, Cut, pass!"

"Clap clap clap..."

The onlookers, Gong Yoo and several other actors gave applause to the smiling Kim Ki-hyeon.

Due to the tight schedule and without much greetings, the camera crew moved directly to Goblin's bedroom to film the crying scenes of Gong Yoo and Lee Dong Wook.

Jin Qixuan didn't act too pretentiously. After wiping his nose and tears, he stood behind the monitor and began to watch the performance of the two.

I have to say that Lee Dong Wook's crying scene is really great.

From the tears in his eyes, one could tell that he was filled with a mixture of complicated emotions.

Lee Dong Wook said to Gong Yoo with a trembling voice:
"I remember now. I... am the sinner. Please... kill me..."

After saying this, the tears in his eyes slid down his cheeks one by one.

At this moment, Kim Ki-hyeon felt empathy and his tears flowed along with Lee Dong-wook's.

If we were to say who could best understand the emotions in Lee Dong Wook's tears at this moment, it would naturally be Kim Ki-hyeon, after all, the young Lee was played by Kim Ki-hyeon.

Crying scenes are a basic skill for an actor, and for Peninsula actors, crying scenes are commonplace.

Therefore, there was no problem with these crying scenes and they were all performed in one take.

After the filming, everyone moved to another location.

Lee Dong Wook and Yoo In Na will have a scene where they cry together in a fried chicken shop, and another scene where they break up and cry on a bridge.

As for Gong Yoo and Kim Go-eun, there are two sweet and one tearful segments (the Goblin draws his sword).

As for Jin Qixuan, there is no hope...
