Chapter 70: Farewell on Set
y something but opened and closed her mouth several times. In the end, she just giggled towards him twice without speaking.However, the meaning is already very clear.Chi Jingyuan nodded in understandi...The title of the second-to-last episode is "While You Are in Love".
Now that the TV series is nearing its end, both those who have watched and those who haven't on the peninsula have probably heard of it.
This episode's viewership ratings were tallied at dawn the following day, reaching an average and peak viewership of 5.2% and 6.8%, respectively.
This surge in viewership has the cast and crew incredibly excited, and they have high hopes for the finale.
It is worth mentioning that this viewership rating is similar to that of episode nine of the SBS drama "To a Beautiful You," which aired on September 12th.
This TV drama, a collaboration between ** Entertainment and SBS Television, starring popular idols from their roster, premiered last month on the 15th.
The premiere viewership was the highest for the entire series, at 6.4%.
After that, it was a straight downward slide. There were occasional small fluctuations along the way, but overall, it continued to decline steadily.
This viewership curve couldn't help but remind Ji Jingyuan of one person.
Nevermind...
To note, the two dramas air on different channels: one on free-to-air broadcaster SBS and the other on cable network tvN, which is a subscription-based channel. Despite the significant difference in viewership numbers, their ratings tend to be on par with each other.
This also poured cold water on **'s entertainment expansion plans, and the acting careers of the male and female leads, Ji-ho and Se-ri, naturally encountered setbacks.
After the fifteenth episode was finished filming, they shot for a few more days. 《Please Answer 1997》came to an end and the entire production crew entered its final stages.
"Cut!"
Director Shin Yuan-ho's voice echoed, he wore black-rimmed glasses and scanned the surroundings.
At this point, all the staff members on set had gathered, except for Ji Chang Wook and Jung Eun Ji, who were still in the center of the stage after just finishing the last scene. The rest of the actors were mostly surrounding them, smiling and watching Shin Hyun Bin.
Shen Yuanhao let out a long breath and shouted, “I announce that ‘Please Answer 1997’ has wrapped up filming!”
"Oh!"
A wave of thunderous applause erupted, and the entire cast and crew rose to their feet, shouting with glee. Every face was lit up with joy, celebrating this momentous historical occasion for them all.
The initial skepticism before the broadcast, the surprise at its premiere, and its rise to become the current biggest hit and most popular television drama.
This series of experiences made all the staff involved in the production of this television drama's emotions ups and downs, while also leaving a deep mark in everyone's heart.
Everyone has different feelings and opinions about this play, but they all agree that it made a strong impression.
This TV show has already become a shining moment that everyone present can write into their encyclopedia and resume.
Afterward, the crew members bid farewell to each other. Park Ji-won also said goodbye individually to PD Lee Min-han, director Shin Yuan-ho, screenwriter Lee Yu-jeong and other key personnel.
"Jǐngyuán, you are really amazing. I will definitely contact you next time there is a suitable role for you."
"Thank you, PDni."
"Not only TV dramas, Jingyuan, you should also come to variety shows too."
"Um... If it's a variety show, could I consider it for a bit"
"Hahaha... You little kid."
"Jingyuan, please don't forget about Nuna after the filming is over."
"How is that possible Don't forget about me, will you"
“…………”
The creators all bid farewell to Ji Jingyuan with smiles, patting him on the shoulder and chatting merrily.
After several months of filming, they truly came to appreciate Ji Jingyuan. He is a boy who shines both on and off camera.
At least the PD, director, and screenwriter are a few people who would definitely like to have the opportunity to collaborate again.
After that, Chi Jingyuan bid farewell to some crew members and supporting actors he had met during the shoot.
The farewell amidst the bustling crowd lasted for a while.
At last, the staff began to pack up all kinds of cameras and machinery, clean the site, and many people left.
Chi Jingyuan followed Park Bo-gum to the parking lot of the film set, preparing to leave.
Hardly had the two of them stepped into the parking lot when Jung Eun-ji followed by her manager walked in.
They looked at each other and involuntarily stopped.
Park Ji-hyun glanced back once, then ignored it completely and walked straight to the nanny car, as if she hadn't seen anything at all.
Jung Eun-ji's manager hesitated, stopping in his tracks. Afterward, Jung Eun-ji said something to him before heading towards the van.
Then only Ji Chang-wook and Jung Eun-ji remained at the spot, separated by two or three meters, laughing at each other.
What's with that look Are you still acting like Cheng Shiyuan
Chi Jingyuan looked at her face, saw her eyes, and couldn't help but laugh. His body relaxed, he tilted his head lazily and said, "You're not still acting, are you"
"
Within, there is a little bit.
"
Jung Eun-ji didn't deny it, her eyes crinkled into crescent moons as she looked up at Ji Chang-wook: "What about you"
"Of course not..."
Qi Jingyuan shrugged and looked at the other person, saying in a matter-of-fact tone, "You should understand me."
"As well," Jung Eunji smiled without diminishing, gently nodded.
She seemed to want to say something, but opened her mouth and made no sound. She lowered her head and shook it, then laughed and lifted her head again.
It just so happened that at the time of their breakup, there was no one else besides them who came to the parking lot.
"Come on, it's not like we're parting ways forever. You're acting like you're in some idol drama. Are you really an artist who has been debuted for over a year"
Ji Jingyuan looked at Zheng Eun-ji, curled his lips, and said in a disdainful tone: "Looking at your expression, there's no camera around... Do you want to put on some more tears"
"...
"
If it were as usual, Jung Eun-ji would have already angrily glared and slapped her hand over. But this time was different; she just shook her head without saying a word.
At this moment, the sound of an engine starting came. It seemed that the agents on both sides were about to drive over and pick up their clients.
"It's so hard to part..."
"Give me a hug" Chi Jingyuan stretched out his arms.
"Die! You haven't taken enough advantage of me during filming, have you"
Jeon Eun-bi gave him a withering look and let out a light hum.
"Let's talk about who benefits from whom when we meet next time."
As the sun was setting, Chi Jingyuan saw the nanny car slowly pull up. He took a step closer and extended his right hand with a slight smile: "Since you don't want to hug, then... give five"
Jung Eun-ji stared at Ji-yeong's face for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled and took a step forward, slapping his outstretched right palm hard.
With a sharp crack, this time was different from the previous playful ones, she used a lot of force.
After finishing the applause, Apk's nanny car had already arrived beside them. Jung Eun Ji pulled open the car door and prepared to get in.
But halfway through opening the car door, she stopped, turned her head to look at Ji Jingyuan, and said seriously: "Let's make a pact. Every time we meet in the future, if the situation allows, we have to clap each other."
"...
" Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
Chi Jingyuan looked at the other person's sincere eyes, he made a helpless expression, smiled and shook his head, his right hand impatiently waved, as if urging the other party to leave quickly.
Jeon Do-yeon didn't seem to mind at all. She pulled on the car door with one hand while smiling and watching him perform with amusement.
Qi Jingyuan finally nodded lightly and made a gesture.
"I promised you."
