Rebirth of the Director in Korea

In Seoul, Gangnam District, Mapo District and Seocho District, these three districts almost include eight out of ten large and small entertainment companies in Seoul.

Not only that, every month, or even every day, a new entertainment agency is established, but with it, the old entertainment company also goes bankrupt.

South Korea’s music industry has a fast metabolism. Almost every day, there are newly launched artist Idol groups. Due to the limitations of the TV promotion platform, only a few of them can be on TV. Station’s broadcast program is used for publicity, and more small artists rely on large and small commercial performances, and the Little Wu stage built on the street for performances.

After all, it is produced by “Little Workshop”, and there is no spare money to buy songs or anything. Generally speaking, they mainly perform recent hot songs and dances.

The living environment of an actor is better than that of a singer, but the problems it faces are completely different from those in the music industry.

If one of the major problems facing the music industry is that the “metabolism” is too strong, then the entertainment industry is faced with the problem of the gap between the older generation of actors and the younger generation of actors, just use one word to describe it. Probably you can use’green and yellow not pick up’.

Although with the rise of a new generation of young actors in China, due to various reasons, their image has not been as popular as the agency’s expectations.

…………………………

Samseong in Seoul Gangnam. District -dong 110-1 Americanstandard Building 8-Layer, early in the morning, ordinary white-collar workers working here see workers to-and-fro from time to time next door, coming in and out, and the voice of’ding ding dong dong’ is even more It was endless, but fortunately, after the ringing for half an hour, there was no more sound.

Someone went out and took a look curiously. It turned out that the next door was undergoing interior decoration and transformation.

“Did you go to see the next door?” Back in her seat, she took the lead in asking questions to her colleagues.

“What are you looking at?” One person turned his gaze from the computer screen to her side, glanced at her curiously, and asked: “What happened next door?”

“Please, don’t tell me the loud voice just now. Didn’t you hear it?” Listening to his colleagues, Gong Ji-min couldn’t help covering his forehead. He didn’t know how big their nerves were, so loud. The decoration sound was not heard.

“Ji-min, what did you just go out to see?”

Looking at Ji-min, they all gathered around and chatted quietly while the big boss was away. , And soon someone joined in.

“The next door is under renovation…” Gong Ji-min pointed his finger at the next door and explained to the sisters.

“Che, isn’t it just decoration, what’s so good about this?” One person immediately retorted when he heard Gong Ji-min’s words, with a look of disdain.

“Yes, it’s just decoration, what’s so beautiful.” Hearing this, and soon someone agreed.

Listening to the sisters’ words, Gong Ji-min was not angry either. Instead, stars appeared in his eyes, and he continued: “But the man who is directing there is very handsome!”

“Really?”

“What you said is true?”

Looking at all the sisters impatiently, Gong Ji-min steals After a few laughs, I knew they would be fooled as long as they said that, as expected, they were tried again and again.

“Didn’t you know that our downstairs is the Keyeast agency? I think the That Man I saw is definitely an actor.” Gong Ji-min said nodded.

The Keyeast brokerage company she said is Bae Yong-joon’s company, which is located in the 6-Layer of this building.

I still remember that when a new batch of female employees came to this company, I heard that people working here often met with Bae Yong-joon, and they were naturally very excited. Some people will wait for more than half an hour in front of Keyeast’s agency after get off work, just to say “Thank you” to their favorite artists.

However, this time Gong Ji-min lied.

Actually, wherever there are handsome guys, she made up to play with them. The decoration next door except for the muscular Ajhussi, where are the handsome guys. Besides, with the handsome temperament, everyone should sit in the cafe and read books and newspapers. How can such a smoky decoration environment come over?

Although she was snickering in her heart, Gong Ji-min soon sorted out the management of facial expressions, and solemnly nodded, “Of course there are handsome guys, and I looked towards him, He still smiled slightly at me!”

Because of Gong Ji-min’s words, everyone did not doubt, but cast their eyes to the Boss door not far away without knowing. When the big boss will come out, something restless in my heart.

“I want to go to the bathroom, do any of you want to go?” one of them suggested.

“I will go!”

“I will go too!”…….

Because of her words, everyone seems to have found a little The reason for skipping work for a while, of course, is to go to the bathroom. As for why so many people go together, it is naturally not to be afraid!

Well, no one will believe it, but they are leaving anyway, and they deliberately asked Gong Ji-min before leaving, “Ji-min, won’t you go and see?”

I heard someone ask himself, Gong Ji-min waved his hand quickly, and slapped Haha in his mouth: “I’ve just been close to take a look at it, this time you go, I still have some forms Do it.”

“Well, let’s go and come, if the big boss came over to inspect, you remember to help a few of us go round.”

“Okay, no Question!” After speaking, Gong Ji-min stretched out his right hand and made a gesture of’Ok’. After all the worries were resolved, only a few of them left the office quietly, and no one noticed them behind them. Gong Ji-min didn’t know whether to cry or laugh expression.

“What a lie!” Seeing his colleagues passed by, Gong Ji-min hehe said with a smile in his seat, not even noticing that he was the mastermind of this time. .

To blame, I can only blame you for being unable to walk as soon as you hear that there are handsome guys. One is more idiot than a nympho, and the smile on Gong Ji-min’s face grows thicker when he thinks of this.

After waiting for the seats for almost ten minutes, the entire group who went out to see the handsome guy finally returned to the office. Gong Ji-min looked surprised when they came back and sat in their seats. ‘howling wind and torrential rain’ There was no movement at all. It was really weird. It seemed that something happened in the process that I didn’t know.

“Are you really going to see it?” Gong Ji-min frowned and asked again.

“Of course I went to see it!” Nodded one of the people in the line, his eyes squinted, explained in his mouth, “It really is so handsome, I can’t close my legs when I am handsome! “

“Ah! Don’t say anything so erotic!” Hearing what his colleagues said, one person hurriedly corrected.

“But, Ji-min. We went there to take a look, there seemed to be two handsome men, I don’t know which one you are talking about?” One person continued.

Listening to the words of colleagues, Gong Ji-min was a little dumbfounded. Is it true that he was right? There are really handsome guys in the renovated house next door, and he didn’t see them?

“Are you sure you read it right?”

“Of course you did not read it wrong!”

Everyone was definitely nodded, and one of them seemed to think of something interesting In the matter, an unfathomable smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth. This gave Gong Ji-min a jump. Wouldn’t they also unify their calibre and then lie to themselves?

……………………………………….. …

“Joon-ki -ssi, what do you think of this place?” Jung Hyuk-jae reached out and wiped the layer of dust on the balcony, turning his head and looking at Lee Joon- next to him. ki, asked.

Outside the window, sunlight is projected from the window onto the floor, and if you look into the distance, the scenery of Gangnam District will be unobstructed.

“Very good!” Lee Joon-ki laughed upon hearing what Jung Hyuk-jae said. It seems that he still has several points of unbelievable in his heart.

Thinking that a week ago, I was just a lonely person in the show business circle, and after a week I was no longer alone, Lee Joon-ki felt that he was still dreaming. In the feeling, everything is so unreal.

Yesterday afternoon, Lee Joon-ki officially signed a six-year contract with JHJ Entertainment and officially became the first artist under JHJ Entertainment.

The signing ceremony is very simple. In addition to Lee Joon-ki and Jung Hyuk-jae, Lee Joon-ki also called a student he knew from the law department. The purpose is naturally this The signing of the contract.

In the South Korea entertainment circle, it’s not that the artists have been scammed by the agency’s celebrities. The reason is that the agency’s tricks on the content of the contract, high liquidated damages, long contract time, There are even various overlord clauses. The phenomenon of’shop bullying’ is everywhere in the South Korea entertainment circle, because the brokerage company is holding resources tightly, if you don’t want to sign, some are young men who want to become famous. girls.

If you don’t pay attention to the contract issue, you ignore some unremarkable clauses, and you are deceived to be the only artists, not the brokerage company.

The content of the contract speaking of which is quite simple. The contract time is six years. As JHJ Entertainment in two years, Lee Joon-ki will win no less than two TV drama men. protagonist.

When Lee Joon-ki saw this article, he was shocked. The contract content learned in Lee Joon-ki generally required artists, and like Jung Hyuk-jae In this way, it is very rare to directly write the hero of the TV series into the contract, almost none.

Not to mention a newly established company like JHJ Entertainment, even Keyeast, the brokerage company of Bae Yong-joon, dare not boast about Haikou, saying that he has won no less than a few TV dramas for XX The actor, because the position of the actor is not just a company staring at, even in Japanese and Japanese dramas, there are not many artists who are watching the position of the actor, not to mention the just-established JHJ Entertainment.

If the previous item is about the benefits given by Jung Hyuk-jae, then the next few items are requirements for Lee Joon-ki, covering all aspects from life to work. Similar to’How many times in love? ”When did you fall in love? ”Do you have a girlfriend now? ‘…These issues are all involved.

The most important thing is to sign the contract. Regarding the distribution of income-7:3, JHJ Entertainment gets 7, Lee Joon-ki gets 3, which seems to be a very unreasonable income distribution. However, Lee Joon-ki did not express much objection to this point. In fact, various brokerage companies do this.

7:3 is not ridiculous. It can even be said that it is a good income distribution. He has heard of the even more bizarre income distribution of 8:2 and 9:1, and it is like It was Shinhwa’s previous contract 8:2 distribution, and 2 had to be evenly divided among the six people, which is even more pitiful.

There are other things like endorsement income, self-owned brand income, etc., all of which are to be shared with the brokerage company, but these are not so outrageous, although JHJ Entertainment represented by Jung Hyuk-jae Still take the big 6:4, but this is also the general practice in the circle, which is a kind of tacit unwritten rules.

Limited damages for Jung Hyuk-jae have been opened for Lee Joon-ki to 2 billion Korean Won, which is an ridiculously high figure.

It seems that Lee Joon-ki suffered a big loss in this signing, but don’t forget that from the moment of signing, Jung Hyuk-jae will be responsible for Lee Joon-ki , All aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation need JHJEntertainment to pay for it.

As an artist, you can’t live without costumes, right? buy!

As an artist, you can’t live without a manager and assistant, right? trick!

As an artist, you can’t live without a scooter, right? mention!

Looking at the decrease of the little by little number in the bank card, Jung Hyuk-jae will inevitably feel pain.

The address that the two parties signed was also a restaurant, because it just happened to be in time for the meal, the restaurant was also a little noisy, in that environment, Lee Joon-ki signed his name on the contract , Officially sold to JHJ Entertainment.

JHJ is naturally the artist agency founded by Jung Hyuk-jae. Originally, he was planning to give a name that was a bit more atmospheric. However, he spent a lot of brain cells but there was no result. Da Liu, like many big guys in the entertainment industry, uses the initials of his name — Jung Hyuk-jae (JungHyukJae) as the company’s name.

JHJ Entertainment was born since then. At first glance, it looks quite bluffing, but in fact it is just an artist company with only a pitiful one under its umbrella, and it is still a newcomer who has not yet debuted.
