After more than an hour of red carpet and interview process, the 53rd Baeksang Arts Awards officially began at 5 pm on May 3rd.
This year's Baeksang Arts Festival was held at COEX in Gangnam District. As a double event for TV dramas and movies, all the actors and crews that made a big splash last year were present today. It was a star-studded event. Familiar faces such as Song Kang-ho, Park Chan-wook, Lee Byung-hun, Kim Hye-soo, Son Ye-jin, and Lim Yoona were sitting in the front row of the artist seats.
Among them, the crew of "Goblin", which was shortlisted for multiple awards, was also taken care of by the organizers. They sat together in the middle of the second row, enjoying the C-position treatment, and Chi Jingyuan was also lucky enough to do so.
Unfortunately, he is the only one in the so-called cast. Although Goblin received many nominations, he and Bae Suzy were the only two cast members selected as the lead actors, and Bae Suzy is today's MC.
The camera swept past, and even though the room was full of big names, Chi Jingyuan was still very eye-catching. Even a distant lens that couldn't see clearly could spot his position at a glance, and he was considered the most handsome guy in the crowd.
Soon, the party officially began. After a burst of exciting VCR, today's two MCs Park Joong-hoon and Bae Suzy came on stage together.
But to be honest, the two hosts standing there didn't match well. Appearance was one aspect, but mainly Bae Suzy was nearly 1.7 meters tall, and she wore high heels very unkindly. She looked as tall as Park Joong-hoon from where she stood, and even if she didn't notice, she was a little taller than him when she stood up... From Chi Jingyuan's perspective, the male MC's body was already straight, and he almost wanted to stand on tiptoe.
This woman is really scheming.
But...it's pretty nice today.
The two MCs, who were not professional, had an awkward chat. Maybe the director thought it was boring, so he suddenly cut the camera to the artist seats and began to show the huge lineup of guests today. Chi Jingyuan also got a one-second close-up shot.
The well-cut dark suit has smooth shoulders and a slightly tightened waist, outlining the upright posture of the upper body.
The low-key yet textured suit fabric exudes a delicate luster under the light, and paired with a face that does not reflect much or feel greasy, and looks handsome and lively, there is a unique charm that is a combination of maturity and calmness and youthful confidence.
Chi Jingyuan is very popular to begin with, and the dazzling shot at this moment created a sense of stunning beauty that was universal. Many viewers in front of the TV felt that the screen lit up when they saw this scene, and the scene instantly erupted with exclamations and screams.
Unfortunately, the shot was very short, it was really a complete snapshot, and it was cut away before Chi Jingyuan could react.
...If it's an award ceremony in the music industry like MAMA or MMA, and they meet a TOP idol like Ji Kyung-won, an atmosphere maker, the director will definitely be shameless and keep cutting to his close-up, maybe ten or twenty times a night.
It's a pity that Baeksang Arts is of a higher level after all, the directors have to have some dignity, and the guests are all big names, so it's already very good to give them a few shots.
After the two MCs were introduced, it was soon time for the first award of the day, the male and female in the TV drama department.
The male newcomers were fine, but among the female newcomer candidates there were a few familiar faces to Ji Jingyuan, the most familiar of whom was Kong Seung-yeon. This sister was shortlisted for this year's Newcomer Award for the drama "Master - God of Noodles" and also came to the scene today. He just chatted with her in the lounge before the red carpet.
...Interestingly, Ji Jingyuan learned from Park Jae-hyun some time ago that Netflix had previously wanted to ask him to star in the self-produced drama "My Only Love Song", but he refused it. After seeking actors from many parties to no avail, they finally found Kong Seung-yeon to play the heroine.
Ji Jingyuan vaguely remembered that the female person in charge told him that they wanted to replicate the dual starring role of "Goblin", but now he doesn't know how it changed from Bae Suzy to Kong Seung-yeon... Although it is a bit hurtful to say it, the cast has really declined by more than one level.
...and he clearly remembered that this sister had filmed many dramas and had started acting since EXO debuted. Was she only selected for the Newcomer Award this year?
Unfortunately, I still didn’t get it.
...My talent is not that great, and there is no good company to support me.
After the Newcomer Award, it was the first award related to "Goblin", Best Screenplay.
Ji Jingyuan really thinks the script of "Goblin" is good. He has also collaborated with Kim Eun-sook many times and thinks writer Kim's ability is impeccable.
Unfortunately, the competition for this award was really fierce, and it was finally given to Noh Hee-kyung, the writer of My Dear Friends.
Ji Jingyuan could only control his expression and applaud... But although he felt a little regretful, he felt that it was well deserved. The drama "My Dear Friends" was really great. He would even think it was normal even if it was awarded to other dramas such as "Romantic Doctor Kim" or "Another Oh Hae Young".
This year's Baeksang Arts Awards was truly a battle of the gods, and every work was excellent.
When it came time to present the Newcomer Award for the Film Department, Chi Jingyuan immediately perked up.
This year, the candidates for the Best Male and Female New Actor in Film are all his acquaintances. The male candidate, Do Kyung-soo, was selected for "Brothers", and the female candidate, Yoona, was selected for "The Help". He will be very happy no matter which of them wins the award.
He glanced back and saw that Do Kyung-soo's eyes were as big as light bulbs. He was obviously extremely nervous. After all, he could only get the Newcomer Award once and it would be of great help to his career.
pity……
"Yoo Jun-yeol, rough Kamida~"
Seeing the winner, Yoo Jun-yeol, who had a very Peninsula-style and even ugly look, walking excitedly towards the stage, Chi Jingyuan clapped casually, thinking in his heart that it was a pity.
But Yoo Jun-yeol won the Best Newcomer in a TV Series last year and the Best Newcomer in a Movie this year, improving every year... His company is really amazing.
Besides, I'm really lucky.
Chi Jingyuan knew some inside information.
Ryu Jun-yeol's agency is C-jes, the agency that once managed the three-member group JYJ from TVXQ.
This agent is really capable and has deep connections in the circle. The company also has good resources in film and television. It now has many well-known actors under its management, including Sol Kyung-gu, Choi Min-sik, Ra Mi-ran, Moon So-ri, Park Sung-woong, etc.
But even though he had good film and television resources, Yoo Jun-yeol had never emerged before. The main actor promoted by this company was Park Yoochun, and basically all the resources were given to Park Yoochun... After all, they all came from TVXQ, so they were the same family as the boss.
So Park Yoochun was doing very well in the film and television industry a few days ago, and Yoo Jun-yeol had nothing to do with it at all.
Unfortunately, just when Park Yoochun was about to rise in stardom, a sexual assault scandal suddenly broke out, causing his reputation to collapse. Now he can only temporarily retire from the entertainment industry and prepare to get married.
The top star that had been promoted for so many years suddenly fell, which naturally caused great damage to the company. After calming down and making some considerations, C-jes chose Yoo Jun-yeol as the successor. All resources fell on Yoo Jun-yeol, and the agency began to promote him.
Although "Reply 15" was a huge hit in 1988 and made Yoo Jun-yeol instantly famous, his next TV series "Lucky Romance" filmed in 16 was a complete flop. Logically, he should have been silent for a while.
However, it did not affect his resources at all. He took on "Silence" with Choi Min-sik right after the movie flopped, and this year he took on "Taxi" with Song Kang-ho.
His agency is really powerful... The company's resources are its confidence, the cost of trial and error, and the so-called blood.
But honestly speaking, Chi Jingyuan didn't like him very much, although Liu Junlie was actually very enthusiastic towards him and had just taken the initiative to come up to him and talk to him in the lounge, with an obvious intention of making friends or even currying favor with him.
Chi Jingyuan didn’t actually have any feelings about him before...but now this man’s face always reminds him of Wen Taiyi.
They are both ugly, both try to get close to others, and it is not surprising that they are also two-faced.
Immediately afterwards, the Best New Female Performer award in the film sector began to be presented.
A close-up shot of senior Yoona appeared on the big screen. She was still as beautiful as ever, with red clothes and black hair, looking pure and elegant.
But senior Yoona didn't seem to be as calm as before. She looked up at the big screen. Although she tried her best to keep smiling, making people feel that she was relaxed and didn't care about the award, Chi Jingyuan still saw through the expectation and nervousness in her heart.
Obviously, the senior also wanted this award very much... He got the Best Newcomer Award right after starring in the movie. This script is simply perfect. It will make his future film career much easier, and even his resources can be improved to some extent.
As an actor, Ji Jingyuan, who witnessed Yoona's hardships, can certainly empathize with her.
"This year, the Best New Actress in the Film Category is..." Park So-dam, the award presenter on the stage, drew out her tone to keep the audience in suspense.
Lim Yoona! Lim Yoona! Lim Yoona!
Chi Jingyuan was sitting in the audience. As a close junior from the same company, he kept calling her name in his heart, naturally and sincerely cheering for his senior.
But every time he shouted a sentence, an uncontrollable darkness emerged from the deepest part of his heart, and he unconsciously added another sentence after each sentence:
Not her! Not her! Not her!
Chi Jingyuan didn't know why, but he couldn't control this thought... He was obviously a fan of Yoona, and they were just having a friendly conversation in the lounge just now.
Feeling this dark thought in his heart, thinking about how Yoona senior had sincerely supported him in competing for the Best Actor Award tonight more than an hour ago, thinking about those squinting smiling eyes, the curved eye bags, and the clear eyes... Chi Jingyuan felt really ashamed.
It’s all Wen Taiyi’s fault… he brought in bad habits and infected him.
There will be more later
