ecause of the occasion, all the expressiveness seems to be pushed to the extreme."Your breath is always quickened, you wish me to come."After seeing my smile, are you also drawn to meWhen it came to J...Ji Jingyuan was sitting in the nanny car heading to the film set, scrolling through his phone. Park Bo-gyeom was driving ahead, occasionally chatting with him.
These days EXO-K's schedule has been really hectic and busy. While in Xia Guo, it was a string of continuous announcements, with only 3 to 4 hours of rest at night. Even after returning to the Peninsula, they haven't had a moment to breathe, finishing all their tasks back at the dorm just last night.
However, the good news is that after all those busy things are done, things will be much more relaxed these days. The next stage performance will be on July 30th for the music show 《TheShow》.
This morning, Ji Jingyuan got into Park Jae-hyun's car and headed to the set.
This was his first time back on set after taking a leave of absence some time ago. He didn't have time to watch the premiere of the TV drama yesterday.
"It seems the reviews are pretty good."
Chi Jingyuan flipped through his phone, looking at the online reviews.
He chose "Reply 1997" based on fragments from his dreams. He could only be sure that this drama wouldn't flop, but he didn't know the specific results.
Now, looking at the comments online, I've found them surprisingly good.
"Well, I've read a lot of reviews too, and it seems like people are really enjoying your show."
"Especially the reviews for your performance as the male lead, Yun Jae, have been very good," Park In-hwan said, nodding as he drove.
"Well, I see," Chi Jingyuan smiled, his gaze resting on a building that commented on him.
The male lead was truly amazing, he left a deep impression from the first shot. Does anyone know his detailed information
Although he is very handsome and good-looking, he doesn't appear out of place in the drama. His acting is superb and makes for a very enjoyable viewing experience.
“…………”
Jingyuan browsed several forums and found many posts about "Reply 1997," some expressing confusion:
>And... didn't this comment post get a little carried away
Logic dictates that a low-budget, cable television series wouldn't receive this much attention.
If the production budget wasn't so low, he would have thought the crew had hired professional water armies to post online and promote it.
"What's the viewership rating Do you know" Ki Chunggu asked.
"Ratings should be tallied up in the wee hours, I haven't received them yet, the production team definitely knows."
Park Jae-hyun shook his head. "Did the crew not send you a message"
"No, he probably didn't want to disturb my rest."
"You'll know when you get there, it should be a surprise."
After a few minutes' drive, they arrived at the set of the drama. Ji Jingyuan got out of the car and walked towards the set.
"Jǐngyuán ah, finally you're back, it must have been hard."
As a worker saw Chi Jingyuan walk in, he grinned and greeted him with a friendly smile. He seemed to be in good spirits.
"Inner peace." Chi Jingyuan also smiled and nodded, giving a greeting.
"Oh my gosh, wuli Yunzai is back."
"I saw you on TV the other day, I heard you were very popular at the Xia Guo event this time"
"...
" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
As he walked in, many people greeted Chi Jingyuan, each with a warm smile. He felt that the entire crew was filled with happy and excited emotions.
Ji Jingyuan walked all the way, bowing to everyone as he went. He reached the section where the creators were and greeted several people before chatting with them.
"Jingyuan, you look even more handsome after a few days. " Screenwriter Li Youzhen really likes him."
He might have missed me these past few days.
"Haha..."
"Alright, no more beating around the bush, Jingyuan, guess what our viewership rating was for yesterday's premiere"
Director Shin Yuan-ho came over, wearing a director's hat and a wide smile.
"One percent"
"Pool-view asked tentatively,"
A viewership rating of 1% for the premiere of a cable TV drama on tvN is already considered quite successful.
As a pay-channel, cable television's audience size cannot compare to the free channels of the three major TV stations. A one percent viewership is already a very good number, enough to satisfy everyone.
This time, the TV series "My Love from the Star" which followed "Reply 1997" in the txN Tuesday slot didn't have high ratings.
The official response was that the TV series is relatively niche and airs on a cable channel, so it is not included in the viewership ratings.
Online speculation is that this is because the viewership of "I Love Lee Taeri" was too low, consistently below one percent, even as low as 0.5 percent, so it wasn't included in the ratings.
"Haha..."
At the sound of Chi Jingyuan's guess, everyone burst into laughter.
"The average viewership was 1.52%, and the highest viewership was 2.1%.” Shin Yuan-ho announced the answer.
"Wow!" As soon as Shin Won-ho's voice fell, the surrounding staff cheered.
They actually knew it all along, but they were just too excited to contain themselves and celebrated once again.
Applause erupted from all directions, though not loud, it was clear that everyone was clapping with enthusiasm. Excitement and joy filled the entire film set in an instant, with cheerful laughter echoing everywhere.
This crew hasn't had a smooth journey since its formation. The main creative personnel all came from variety show specialists with no experience, low budget, and were completely overlooked by the industry. They have been under immense pressure throughout their journey.
Before the premiere, many people just hoped that the whole series could be aired without being cut. Now, with such a surprising start, the contrast is naturally overwhelming with joy.
"Wow, that's amazing!"
Qi Jingyuan was beaming with surprise and delight.
This live broadcast data is really great for txN right now.
"Inside, we'll collect some audience feedback and adjust the plot and pace accordingly. From now on, the filming will be very demanding, Jingyuan, you need to be prepared."
Shen Yuanhao patted him and instructed.
"Inside, the director, ni, rest assured."
Qi Jingyuan smiled and nodded.
"Alright, let's get started!" Shen Yuanhao clapped his hands. The surrounding staff responded in unison, each person brimming with work enthusiasm.
The actor standing beside her, who seemed to be Jung Eun-ji, was grinning widely with a mouthful of teeth, her eyes squinting into slits and her cheeks puffed out. She clapped her hands enthusiastically like a pug, occasionally looking at Ji Kyeong-won with a raised eyebrow.
It's a pity that when she smiled, her eyes crinkled so much that you couldn't see the expression in them. You could only feel how genuinely happy she was.
The entire crew was full of energy and enthusiasm as they started working with great fervor. Meanwhile, the response to "Reply 1997" from the outside world has been getting increasingly positive.
