The prosperous age of Korean entertainment

Unlike the mirror, the interview for "Les Miserables" was not arranged at the Charlotte Theater but at a small independent theater in Hongdae.

Liu Jingshu, who is 16 years old and already in high school, is more mature in singing and emotional expression than when she was interviewing for "Notre Dame de Paris" in [-].Even so, the other participants present were still her seniors—even though her musical debut might be the earliest of all, who told her that she only debuted as a singer more than a month ago and was so young.

After reaching this interview, the newcomers basically disappeared, and the resumes of the participants can be described as gorgeous.For example, Liu Jingshu herself has participated in "Cats" and many TV series and movies, and the senior Park Zhiyan who is sitting next to her has participated in the famous horror film "Girl's Tale of High School 2" in the early years, and also starred in another Korean version last year. The musical "Mama Mia".

What is such a public interview compared to?

In addition to actual strength, it is also more important than psychological quality, impromptu expression ability and familiarity with the works.Good student Liu Jingshu read the Chinese translation of Hugo's "Les Miserables" when she was in elementary school. After receiving the audition notice, she read the original work again and watched the Broadway and West End versions of the musical. It is more natural than the familiarity of the work. With confidence.As for the psychological quality on the spot, she asked herself that she had quite a lot of interview experience, and she would not be at a disadvantage in this regard.

Compared with the participants who turned from actors to musicals, Liu Jingshu has an advantage in singing skills, but when it comes to acting, she is naturally not as good as those senior veterans who debuted at the end of the 16th century.But she still has an advantage, that is age.Both Cosette and Eponine in the play are fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls. Under the same conditions, choosing a 26-year-old is definitely better than a [-]-year-old one.In addition, the topicality of her who has just debuted as a singer has not completely dissipated, which has also become one of the factors considered by the crew.

Liu Jingshu's own goal is Cosette.Pure, kind, innocent, brave to pursue love, Cosette is the baton of humanitarianism.

She loves the role and studies the role the most.Although she doesn't have many arias, her performance is attractive.That's what she said to the judges, with a lot of her understanding of the role and a singing of A Heartfullo love.Homework can be said to be done at home.

You have worked so hard, if you are selected for the crew, it should be a common thing to get this role.The reality is that Liu Jingshu was selected into the crew of the Korean version of "Les Miserables" by virtue of her excellent ability, but she did not play Cosette.

The role chosen by the crew for her was Eponine.

Anyone who has read the original book of "Les Miserables" knows that Eponine is a rather bitter character. She has been secretly in love with Marius but has no results. Fulfilling his ideal but unwilling to be discovered by him, she just wants to be by Marius' side, but the people who miss her don't see her.In the musical, "Onmyown" sung by Epony is another powerful tear gas besides "Idreamedadream".

Apart from the fact that there are many arias that can give full play to her strengths in singing, Liu Jingshu really doesn't know where she is suitable for Ai Panni.God knows that apart from filming, she has never even had a decent relationship.After entering SM, she has always been surrounded by handsome guys, but she really has no experience of crushing love, not even in the filming, how should she express this?Musicals are not filming. If you can’t do it once, you can do it again with NG. All problems must be solved during rehearsal.

Can she work it out?Can she perfectly interpret this role on the public stage?

she does not know.

After attending the press conference where the casting of "Les Miserables" was confirmed, the practice of the Korean version of "Les Miserables" dedicated to the 25th anniversary of "Les Miserables" officially started, and the official performance began two months later.

In terms of arias, although there are many arias, even the most important "Onmyown" she quickly passed the review of the director team. Her singing skills and song expression ability are indeed very catchy.

But when singing "Onmyown", how do you sing until you cry and sing until tears roll in your eyes?When Marius and Cosette are exchanging their hearts, how can Eponine express her heartbreak with her eyes and body?

Ai Panni loves so humblely and loves so small. Liu Jingshu has never experienced this kind of feeling. In addition, the practice of musicals is intermittent. It is impossible to find status and love all the time in the crew like filming. After a day of school Returning to musical theater practice can only rediscover the feeling.

Is she really supposed to be in an unforgettable relationship in order to quickly get into a show like this?

What annoyed her was that once such a thought appeared, it was like a vine growing wildly, lingering in her mind.

57 Secret Love

Recommended song: "To the Bride" Glass Box

In the performances of TV dramas, from "Holy Snow" to "Samurai Baek Dong-soo", she has also shown "likes" in various ways, but compared with Eponine's "secret love", the "likes" in these TV dramas It needs to be released more.Moreover, it is mostly the ambiguity of mutual affection, rather than the bitterness that your sweetheart will never see you in the eyes.

What's more, on the stage of a musical, there is no one to close-up your facial expressions or hand movements. Everything is determined by the body and singing.

From the perspective of acting skills alone, the director team is generally satisfied with Liu Jingshu's performance. Exaggeration should be exaggerated and caution should be taken. There is nothing wrong with the combination of physical performance and libretto.

However, it always feels like something is missing.

In the eyes of director Cui Yongzhu, Liu Jingshu is more like a performance machine, and an expression will come out at the touch of a button. The standard is the standard, but it is difficult to impress people. In short, it is "not distracting".He has watched Liu Jingshu's performance in several TV dramas and movies, but found that Liu Jingshu did not have such problems in these TV dramas, even when he performed the musical "Cats" three and a half years ago.

The only possibility can only be that Liu Jingshu didn't really go into the heart of this character, but was just "acting a secret love" with the acting skills accumulated over the years of filming.

It was not an option to go on like this, so after one day's rehearsal, he left Liu Jingshu alone.

As Liu Jingshu herself, she also knew that something was wrong with her performance.What does it feel like to have a crush on someone?What does it feel like to be willing to do everything for your sweetheart?The libretto has words that can concretize such and such a mood, but what about the performance?This can only be resolved by herself.

"Have you ever been in a relationship?" After talking about the problem, director Cui Yongzhu threw a straight ball when he looked at Liu Jingshu who was looking down in reflection.

Liu Jingshu shook his head, "It's not counted in filming, no."

Unsurprisingly, although this little girl looks more mature and sensible than her peers in terms of conversation and performance, she is indeed simple in emotion.

"Then is there any boy you like? The one who chases stars is also fine."

Liu Jingshu was stunned for a moment, it was impossible to say that not a single figure flashed in her mind, she was still a 16-year-old girl with normal thinking.However, as long as she thinks about it, some things that are suppressed deep in her heart and do not want to face them head-on, and do not want to let them take root begin to grow slowly.

"You don't need to tell me who he is." Director Cui Yongzhu guessed most of Liu Jingshu's reaction when he saw Liu Jingshu, "Put your feelings for him in the play, put it on Marius." He paused, "Today Go back tonight and think about it, I hope you can walk into the heart of this character in tomorrow's rehearsal."

In the second day's rehearsal, Liu Jingshu was really in good condition.The whole crew can see the "true" emotions emanating from her, and seeing her performance, they are also infected by Eponine's deep sorrow.Even when rehearsing "Onmyown", after singing the song and walking away from the middle of the rehearsal hall, her tears didn't stop, she sobbed for almost 5 minutes before stopping.

She has always been a professional actor. She has filmed a lot of crying scenes since "East of Eden" so that she can easily shed tears within ten seconds, but she can also quickly dry up the tears within one minute.Except for the last time a singer made her debut, she herself can't remember the last time she cried so happily.

This time, she really paid attention.

"Les Misérables" is a musical that hurts when it's performed. You can cry like this just in rehearsal, and the rhythm of crying every time you go on stage is really frightening.However, compared with the questioning of the world view and outlook on life when filming "Today", "Les Miserables" focuses more on the torture of human nature.For Liu Jingshu, one of the actors, this is the first time she has played such a sad role.Last night she spent nearly a sleepless night thinking a lot and making a lot of adjustments, and finally found a suitable channel to put this unknown strange feeling that she couldn't guarantee that she could control it into the performance of the musical.

This is the best solution for her so far.As for that one, she doesn't think it's the right time for her and him to fall in love. It's best to be friends. If something really happens, won't they even be friends?

Because she started filming and filming CF to make money since she was a trainee, after the singer debuted, she did not
