PD and lower extremity (2)
“I want to make sure that the names of Prince Suyang, Sejo, Danjong, and Munjong never appear in the play.”
It was the first thing Kim Sang-hee emphasized in the production meeting, which was followed by an impromptu three-way meeting.
Jang Seung-won, who had already read the script, nodded.
“no wonder. Even in the script, it was said that Daegun, young king, and Daegoon’s older brother were only mentioned in this way. Come to think of it, words like Suyang, Sejo, and Danjong never came up.”
“I thought it would be better to direct it with the concept of a drama borrowed from a historical background rather than an authentic historical drama.”
“This is better if you want to avoid squabbles. It is enough to actively induce viewers to think of Gyeyujeongnan.”
“However, I want things like costumes and props to be thoroughly historically historical.”
“You never mention names, but you think the era is right, so you’re trying to emphasize to the viewers, right?”
“yes that’s right.”
Jeong Seo-hoon asked curiously.
“Sageuk is also a type of drama, so is it a problem to twist history with dramatic permission?”
“There are many hard-nosed viewers who think historical dramas should converge on documentaries. They’re just doing it to avoid a fuss.”
Jang Seung-won explained instead of Kim Sang-hee.
“To be honest, historical zombie movies and zombie historical dramas set in the Joseon Dynasty do not make sense from a historical point of view. I just filled the fictional imagination with the background of the times.”
“Then wouldn’t it be okay to use the name Grand Prince Suyang as it is? They also put a warning saying that it is just a creation of the times that has nothing to do with historical facts.”
“Do you think Seo Hoon wants to keep the name of Grand Prince Suyang for quite some time?”
“Since it has a different name than Suyang, I feel a little bit like my identity is changing.”
“Don’t worry. It is only referred to as Daegun, but there is no other title other than Discipline attached.”
Grand Prince Suyang, who grew up in an instant inside Jeong Seo-hun, expressed his thirst, saying that it was not enough, but Jeong Seo-hun calmly suppressed it.
“As long as we maintain the dramatic device and flow that can immediately remind us of the background of the times, not naming the exact name will make the viewer’s imagination richer.”
With Jang Seung-won giving one hand to Kim Sang-hee’s opinion, Jeong Seo-hoon decided to keep the inner Prince Suyang tightly tied.
“These days, there aren’t just a few pros who are uncomfortable with it. Historical dramas are worse, so it might be easier to skip it like this. I will leave it up to the imagination of the viewer as to exactly what era it is, well that’s how I pass the responsibility.”
“Did you see it? Being a production team is so cunning and shady. If Seo Hoon wants to come here, he must be prepared to tarnish his innocence as an actor.”
“No, Mr. Seo Hoon should always be an actor. Leaving that talent aside and touching other areas is a sin against the future of our country’s media.”
The production meeting where the three of them put their heads together was getting longer, but no one felt bored.
Jang Seung-won actively asked Jeong Seo-hoon for various opinions.
They even asked about casting opinions on who should be assigned to other roles.
Illegal, it was a strange experience that I had never experienced before at the storage high school.
When asked why, Jang Seung-won answered as if it was nothing special.
“You are a special protagonist. Of course, if you have any opinions, you should actively reflect them.”
“Are they usually like that?”
“Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn’t. Will you actively reflect production opinions even by using young and fresh leads in a romantic comedy? Just check the character analysis.”
“Originally, this is PD Jang’s style, and Seo Hoon is an irreplaceable main character. It’s not just a cast member.”
Kim Sang-hee added with a smile.
“In the first place, Ha Geuk Sang was a script that could not have been born without Mr. Seo Hoon. My army of rebels are tailor-made for only one person, Mr. Seo Hoon.”
Jang Seung-won also chimed in.
“So, wouldn’t the runway be successful only if the opinions of the main models were actively reflected?”
“Ayu, PD-nim Jang, I really like how cool you are. It’s just my style.”
“As expected, am I better than Song Jeong-woo? Please give me another chance next time, hahahahaha.”
“I really think so. I think our Song PD-nim has been too loose these days because it’s the fish he caught.”
“That’s why you chose me to give you a sense of tension, writer-nim.”
“There’s that, and PD Song PD-nim’s historical drama Jembyeong.”
Jeong Seo-hoon intervened.
“Is Song PD-nim weak in historical dramas?”
“I really don’t know. Because I’ve never taken one.”
Kim Sang-hee shrugged.
“But Jang Seung-won PD-nim did a big, traditional full-length historical drama at KBC, and also did two fusion historical dramas that catered to the tastes of young people.”
“When it comes to historical dramas, it is our KBC. Well, these days, I get hit and miss because of young fusion historical dramas from cable or OTT, but I still don’t go anywhere with jjambab.”
“The problem is the production cost. I don’t know why they’re so stingy when they spend money on food as a public broadcasting station. Surely they won’t say that they will suddenly cut production costs later?”
It was a little surprising to Jeong Seo-hun.
To think that Kim Sang-hee was worried about it again when the production was already confirmed and the production meeting was held with the PD.
“Is there a case where production costs are reduced after the organization is finalized?”
“It is inconsistent. KBC especially more. So, you must never be vigilant until the first episode airs.”
“Actually, it is our broadcasting station that must not be vigilant until the moment the show ends. It’s full of people you can’t trust.”
“I think the manager will do well, right?”
Jang Seung-won beat his chest.
“No problem. Director, he is a direct line to our director and is a highly trusted right-hand man. Production cost of 2.5 billion won per synagogue, there will be no problem.”

– Let’s have a drink.
Around the time of work, Director Yang Joon-gyu felt a chill in his heart at the sudden suggestion of a drinking party from the director.
After getting ready for work, he headed to the meeting place set by the director.
He took a room and calmly calmed down and waited.
The director did not show up even though the appointment time had passed for nearly an hour. There was not even any contact.
Worse, ominous sign.
The director appeared only when the patience that caused the meltdown pierced the pelvic bone and reached below the knee.
He was already drunk.
“Chief, you are very drunk.”
“yes. why aren’t you eating If I’m late without a word, I should have eaten first. You know why you’re late.”
“But how can I eat first when the director isn’t there?”
“I must have been bored waiting alone. take care of it.”
Yang Jun-gyu called the waitress and ordered them to drink and snack in moderation. I just roughly picked what caught my eye on the menu.

Now was not the time for alcohol and snacks.
Alcohol came out, and I drank it with the feeling that I didn’t know whether it was going into my nose or mouth.
“drink. drink more.”
Because the director was spreading an ominous aura saying that he would say something that would be difficult to hear in his sober mind.
When the alcohol was moderately drunk, the director finally brought up the story.
“What about the production cost?”
“ah! Chief! What if you come and do this now!”
“sorry. I have no money.”

Originally, it was planned to just have a light PD meeting and finish it.
However, the impromptu production meeting was heading towards the deep night without knowing it.
Right now, the three of them were in the middle of discussing the content of the script and analyzing it in nano units.
“Wow, really. Have you already seen and memorized all 16 copies? I’m sorry to say this, but I’m not joking. really.”
The three moved to a meat restaurant and continued the meeting by eating only meat and rice without drinking.
“Are all seniors at Korea University like that? It really makes no sense.”
“It’s not because it’s Korea University, but Seo Hoon is special. That’s why every actress I meet in front of the camera loses consciousness.”
“Uh, maybe Chae Ji-hyun too?”
“no. There was nothing like that with Chae Ji-hyun.”
“What, are you already calling me Chae Ji-hyun instead of senior?”
“From my point of view, Mr. Chae Ji-hyun clearly has a heart. The other day, I turned around and asked why only Yoo Jung-ah was invited to a drinking party, and I know exactly.”
Although there was a bit of gossip and gossip mixed in during the production meeting, the temporary production meeting was conducted with great enthusiasm.
Jeong Seo-hoon turned around to get out of the gossip-like chatter.
“How about casting Lee Min-soo for the role of Left Ui-jeong instead of Go Myung?”
Kim Sang-hee admired a little.
“Oh, that’s right.”
“I see. I think there will be a topic because I will face Seo-hoon Jeong again in a confrontational position.”
“I got hit hard by Seo Hoon at Illy Girl and Storage High School. Since it is a role that is greatly affected in the lower drama, you will be able to empathize.”
An ill-fated chancellor who is put on the wrong side of the street after being framed for treason by a large army.
I was in a similar position in my previous works, so fans will be able to get a different kind of enjoyment.
“In the meantime, shall we ask the teacher now?”
“Now? Rather, get approval later and make an official casting inquiry…”
“Who did you say you would actively give casting rights to?”
“You are a writer. Feel free to contact us now. Oh, can I call you?”
“It’s too late to call producer. The teacher treats me like my nephew, so it would be better for me to call.”
Because he is an artist, his acting ability is very good.
Kim Sang-hee called right away on the spot, and the corners of his lips gradually approached his ears as he spoke.
“Yes, teacher. Wait.”
Kim Sang-hee, who turned off the microphone for a while, turned around and asked.
“The teacher says he’s buying you a drink, and you’re telling me to finish your meal and come?”
“Let’s go! I ate them all a while ago!”
Producer Jang Seung-won got up excitedly and took his jacket, and Jung Seo-hoon also stood up silently to answer.
Kim Sang-hee smiled and turned the microphone back on.
“Yes, teacher. We ate them all. I’ll move right now. Where should I go?”

“I thought I would become an actor of 13 million thanks to you and Seo-Hoon Jeong. After all, life is just one room.”
“no. Even if it wasn’t for me, it was a work that would have produced 13 million copies.”
“Doesn’t everyone else think that way besides you? Isn’t that so, writer Kim?”
“Even if it wasn’t for Mr. Seo Hoon, it was a good work that would have exceeded 10 million. However, I think Seo Hoon’s contribution to exceeding 13 million is also very large.”
At some point, they said, ‘If it wasn’t for Jeong Seo-hoon, it would have stopped at 78 million.’
In front of Jang Seung-won and Lee Min-soo, he manages his image vigorously.
While pouring alcohol, Jang Seung-won also trembled with flattery.
“I really enjoyed Lee Min-soo’s acting. At the end of this year, I’m sure there will be only good news for both of you, whether you’re an Illegal or a high school student.”
“What have I done? Our comet-like rookie did it all.”
“no. Thanks to the teacher, I was able to bring out better acting than I originally did.”
“That is what I am going to say. When I match the sum with you, I am strangely immersed. It feels like you are out of the world for a while while the camera rolls.”
“Strangely, every actor said that. Even Cha Do-jin was like that.”
After sharing a cool toast, Jang Seung-won quietly asked.
“I am, teacher. So, what about appearing as the chancellor…?”
“I like the role. I want to.”
“thank you. I will not disappoint you.”
Jang Seung-won, who easily got a definite answer, smiled and poured another drink into Lee Min-soo’s empty glass.
The atmosphere was very nice.
Lee Min-soo, who heard the fictional setting and the main stem added to the play from Kim Sang-hee, showed great interest and focused more on her story.
As a PD, it was not very satisfying to see three new actors, veteran actors, and star writers putting their heads together and actively discussing their works.
Then the call came.
“Wait. I’ll take the phone call and come back.”
“Come.”
“Go and come.”
“Please go.”
The sender was Yang Joon-gyu, manager of the department.
Jang Seung-won, who left his seat for a while, happily answered the phone.
“Yes, boss. The atmosphere here is very good. Lee Min-soo also said casting was OK. Jeong Seo-hoon VS Lee Min-soo, this is already full of rice cakes… Yes? I beg your pardon? what did you say now? Boss? Are you real? Sincerity? Oh brother! My older brother can’t do that to me now!”
Jang Seung-won asked in response, barely restraining his anger about to explode.
“So what? Are you going to sleep now?”
– Talk about a big trouble. who spills? Just in the direction of reducing the production cost a little…
“It’s overthrown, that’s it! Knowing Kim’s personality!”
-sorry. They say they have no money.
