The Rise of Korean Entertainment

Li Menglong's character is actually quite strange. It's certain that he has his own bottom line and persistence, but this is hidden very deep, and the outward manifestations are more like changes made to cater to everyone.

He can be brothers with Kim Jong Kook and chat about all kinds of gossip together; he can be Li Ji Eun's mature and steady brother who can give her a sense of security; he can also become two funny guys with Yoo Jae Suk, arguing over who does more work. Noisy all morning.

Although he seemed a little tired, Li Menglong enjoyed it very much. He really didn't mind making the lives of those around him easier as long as he didn't violate the bottom line.

This kind of personality can be called a colorful bird or a chameleon in ordinary people. The general politicians and entrepreneurs who have both sides are like this. Unlike them, Li Menglong has no utilitarian purpose.

He is relaxed and his friends are happy, not to mention he is sincere, so why not do it? Although he seems to have a somewhat changeable personality, those who know him well can appreciate his sincere heart.

Therefore, his brothers, relatives, and friends are getting along with him more and more happily. Even Park Xiangmin, who was constantly at odds with him at the beginning, now gives Li Menglong a thumbs up. In fact, Li Menglong's charm is not small.

It's just that no one has said these words to him, and there are not many people who can even see the essence. It is impossible to count on Lee Soon Kyu and Kim Taeyeon. Seohyun occasionally expresses a little more emotionally, but only a little bit. , the girl is shy.

The life of the three people in Jingshan is full of laughter and laughter. Unlike the previous issue, which had some emotional and heavy topics, with Liu Jae Suk here, even if he talks about some life insights, it will be full of laughter, although it is full of sadness when you think about it carefully.

"What a great place!" Liu Zaishi said reluctantly while looking at the scenery opposite.

"I have already sold this place. When you have time, you can bring your sister-in-law to live here!"

"Don't always think about trying to please your sister-in-law. I still have the final say on major family matters!" Liu Zaishi said forcefully.

Waving his hands indifferently, just listen to this kind of talk: "I know, but it's never a big deal, right?"

Not giving Liu Zaishi face is Li Menglong's usual insistence, and it has even become a unique joke between him and Liu Zaishi. However, many people want to learn, but they are not qualified or dare not.

The only one who dares is Kim Jong Kook! So during this period, Liu Jae Suk got a headache every time he heard the combination "Turbo". If we just talk about how much he hates Turbo, Liu Jae Suk is not only ranked first, but also at the forefront.

The three of them had an extremely relaxed time in the past two days. Although they were a little tired from the work, the physical and mental cultivation was far more important than the body. With full vigor, the three of them had to say goodbye to this place.

It seems to have become a habit. Such a remote mountain village seems to be particularly healing for people in the entertainment industry. Every guest will leave with a touch of regret.

"Will this become a retirement village for artists in the future?" Li Menglong shook his head and muttered wordlessly, and then continued busy with the editing work.

Judging from the current editing rhythm, the two groups of guests can probably support three episodes, which is three weeks. It stands to reason that Li Menglong will go and shoot once every half a month, but he is not pressed for time.

So Li Menglong invited two groups of guests one after another and stayed in Jingshan for almost a week. The first people invited were Li Xiugen and the patriarch, a pair of good friends from variety shows. The bitter conversation and tears later made Li Menglong's eyes red.

As for the next people invited were Han Jiaren and his wife, Li Menglong and Han Jiaren's relationship was actually quite average. Although they liked each other, they didn't have much contact with each other afterwards.

So Li Menglong was a little hesitant when she called her, but she turned out to be quite easy to talk to and took the initiative to bring her husband along. Her husband Yeon Jung-hoon is also one of the top actors in Korea.

As for her statement, she liked this variety show very much, and of course she also said she wanted to work with Li Menglong, but it's hard to say whether it refers to variety shows only. In short, it is certain that Li Menglong also has other statuses.

But there is something like favor. Isn't it that you owe me something and I will repay it to you? You will become familiar with it over and over again. In the future, if there is a role suitable for Han Jiaren, can Li Menglong not consider it? But it’s not considered mutual use, it’s mutual benefit.

With three unreleased three-hour meals in hand, Li Menglong had nearly 40 days to spare. It was obvious what he was going to do. In the entertainment industry, it is impossible to finish one thing. Go do another thing.

So Lee Menglong plans to take advantage of this period to prepare for the TV series, and even shoot a few episodes, and then after a month of hard work, he will go to Jeongseon to film a variety show to heal himself. It’s great to have the best of both worlds, and he can even get Yoona there. It can still be considered as publicity.

When Li Menglong returned to dormitory life again, it was already mid-June. Reply 1988 had been filming for less than half a month. This time, due to the strong request of tvn, it was not filmed in one go before broadcasting.

So at the end of the month, Please Reply will be airing for the first time, and the rest will be filmed while airing. The whole SW is busy around this TV series, so Li Menglong didn’t dare to say that he was preparing for this TV series, because if he did, he would definitely get scolded!

When Lee Eun-hee was so idle, no one was filming the two people who begged her grandfather to sue her grandmother; now they have to squeeze together and start filming? Does your own TV series compete in the arena?

After scratching his head, Li Menglong decided not to think about these things for now, and to completely improve the script first. At least the detailed scripts for the first few episodes will be released. After all, he will start to find actors and prepare the crew.

"Oppa is back? Is everything going well with Jingshan?" Yoona was the only idler in the dormitory at noon.

"Hey, have you been bullied lately?"

"Oh! Oppa, are you here to save me? You don't know how miserable I've been recently..." Yoona immediately rushed over and started smearing various stains on her mouth on Li Menglong's body.

He pushed the girl away irritably. Looking at her eating comfortably, Li Menglong wanted to go over and give her a few slaps. The girls couldn't bear it anymore. Fortunately, Yoona's good days were over.

Let Yoona stand at a distance and Li Menglong looked at it. In fact, 105 kilograms is already a standard weight for a normal girl, but you must know that Yoona has gained a full 15 kilograms.

Fortunately, Yoona is taller, but the overall appearance is a little rounder. The hands that could have exposed veins also have a fleshy texture, and even some double chins can be vaguely seen.

Yoona stared hard at Li Menglong, fearing that she would see some dissatisfaction. You must know that asking her to lose weight now will definitely make her die: "Oppa, don't you mean what you say? You can't ignore me. You've done it before You have to be responsible for things..."

"What are you yelling about? The effect is good. I'm quite satisfied with my body shape!" After giving Yoona some reassurance, Li Menglong said, "Actually, my body shape has been pretty good from now on. It turns out I'm too thin!"

"Hey, it's just for filming a TV series. If I go dancing, I'll look fat!" Yoona pinched her slightly rotten belly and said a little lonely.

"Okay, you will be a popular actress from now on, don't worry about these details!" Li Menglong pressed her head: "And you can control your weight now, you can't eat anymore!"

"Huh? What are you talking about? I can't hear you, Oppa!" Yoona said as she quickly picked up the chocolate and chewed it. This was the last moment of madness.

In the evening, Li Menglong took Yoona and Seohyun to pick up Kim Taeyeon from get off work. It was not surprising that Seohyun came with her, but Yoona was a little abrupt. Isn't this girl enjoying life recently?

"What are you guys looking at? I came here to pick you up out of kindness, but you still doubt me?" Yoona said aggrievedly.

"Because you have a problem. Let's be honest. Are you causing trouble again?" Kim Taeyeon asked directly.

"No, I just miss you guys!"

"Don't be disgusted with me. I've been bothering you lately, don't you know!" Li Shunkyu said with disgust, and at the same time looked at Xu Xian. This little girl is still reliable.

"Oppa was afraid that she would hide in the house and eat, so she pulled Yoona over." Although Seohyun said it very plainly, Seohyun still remembers the scene of the earth shattering when he pulled Yoona out that day. He curled his lips and looked like he was taking Yoona to the crematorium.

Afraid that Seohyun would reveal her embarrassing side, Yoona immediately changed the subject: "Oppa said that the TV series will be officially prepared, so I have to have a job!"

"Oh, congratulations to you! The future heroine of idol dramas, Lin Yoona!" Sisters are meant to make trouble, and they are familiar with this.

"How is that possible? This is a TV series directed by Oppa. Besides, Oppa doesn't make idol dramas, right?"

Just as Yoona finished speaking, she saw Li Menglong touching the bridge of his nose. She was familiar with this action. Is this because Li Menglong was embarrassed? Could it be...

Yoona is not happy because Li Menglong is filming an idol drama! Is this kind of idol drama made by an uncle like Li Menglong who doesn't understand the style? What's more, he wrote the script, and Yoona felt that she was already embarrassed in advance.

The definition of idol drama is very vague, but the biggest feature is that the male and female protagonists must be beautiful and popular, and the plot revolves around the love between the two, creating various accidents, and finally a happy ending.

Although it seems simple, how many people can take good pictures? Although everyone knows that popular idol dramas will definitely make a lot of money, and every TV station produces several of them every year, but how many of them can be popular? How many movie stars have fallen on the road of no return in idol dramas...

"Oppa, can we make a workplace drama? How about a period drama instead? Don't make an idol drama!" Yoona was also scared of idol dramas, so she kept muttering behind Li Menglong.

It's just that it's not Lee Mong-ryong who can be persuaded by Yoona to change his mind. Has he decided to film the idol drama, or is it a preliminary idea he had when he and Kim's mother were together? Besides, his idol drama is slightly different from the mainstream. Some differences.

"Ah, I don't want to live anymore. I don't want to film idol dramas anymore..." This sad cry of pain echoed throughout the dormitory at midnight, but why was there laughter? Not just one place...
