151. Look Twice, Look Thrice (2)

2022.03.31.

The theaters, which seemed somewhat relaxed on the first day of release, gradually began to change within hours.

On the first day of release, the word-of-mouth from those who saw the earliest morning shows started to spread rapidly.

[This is a real masterpiece… I know my peers are living bleakly these days. Watching this will be healing.]

[I was 정신없이 휘둘리다 [mentally swayed] for almost two hours. The first love I had forgotten came to mind, and today I miss a cup of tea with 운치 [elegance/atmosphere].]

[This cannot be explained in words without seeing it;; Strongly recommend it to those with dry eye syndrome b]

The reviews posted on numerous communities were like that, but Ki Han-hyang’s SNS posts also played a part.

A post unlike the usual Ki Han-hyang.

That was also enough to ignite the spark.

Even the broadcast that aired the day after this post made people doubt their eyes.

Netizens argued about this.

Han Hyang is originally a famous person online and an 어그로 [attention seeker] well-attracted by aggressive attitudes.

He doesn’t just attract 어그로 [attention], but his abilities are also recognized in the film industry, so his influence is considerable.

But he’s expressing such blatant favor.

Naturally, it became noisy, and even people who weren’t interested in movies were subtly drawn to the 떠들썩한 [uproarious] topic.

The first to go wild was, of course, Han Hyang’s Instagram comments.

-Hyang-nim, was your Instagram hacked?

-If it wasn’t hacked, this feed is an incomprehensible feed ;;;;

-If you’ve been hacked, shake a carrot

-Why are you guys reacting like that?

-If you were the one who made a male idol cry on the last broadcast, causing a broadcasting accident, wouldn’t you feel strange?

-ㅇㅎ I understand ㄱㅅㄱㅅ [Oh, I understand, thank you thank you]

-What is it about that movie that Han Hyang is 빨아줌 [sucking up to/praising excessively] so hard? I don’t understand;

People who knew Ki Han-hyang were divided on whether it was a hack or not.

However, the broadcast that aired the very next day gave people many reasons to be surprised.

[Anyone watch Hyang-nim’s broadcast today……?]

-I had X channel on my schedule, so I thought, but it was real. 짜잔 [Ta-da]……!

It was amazing that Hyang-nim came on the broadcast, but I kept doubting my eyes the whole time……?

Did only I feel Hyang-nim’s 사심 [ulterior motive/personal interest]?

(Comments)

-That person isn’t usually so gentle…… As soon as I saw it, I thought, ‘꿀떨어지네 [honey is dripping] from his eyes’ ㅇㅇ [yes yes]

ㄴ야너두……? 야나두! [You too…? Me too! – Play on words from a popular advertisement]

ㄴI’m pushing the Han Hyang twin theory, want to join?

ㄴㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋSome are 돌던 [going around] the doppelganger theory, but here it’s the twin theoryㅋㅋㅋ

-Hyang-nim’s movie reviews have been feeling a bit 권태기 [burnout/boredom] lately, but the broadcast was really 진심 [sincere]; He analyzed it at the level of a 논문 [thesis], and even that was all positive reviewsㅋㅋ

ㄴㅇㄱㄹㅇ [This is real] No matter how 수작 [poorly made] a movie is, he always picks out something he’s not happy with, so I can’t adapt to this ㅎㅎ; [Hehe]

-Isn’t it because of Yeon Do-hee? Yeon Do-hee is 존예 [so pretty]

ㄴI don’t think so. You must not have seen X씨 being 까인 [criticized harshly] so much on Movie X…….

-Why were you worried? <- Did only I hear this line? I'm a fan of Hyang-nim, but it's so 가증스러운척 진짜ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ [pretending to be innocent, seriously lol] ㄴI've never seen Hyang-nim do that in my life……. ㄴLater, he was even calling her by her character's nameㅋㅋㅋㅋ [Hyang-nim, are you 덕질해요 [fangirling]?] -Yes, that's right^^… [SNS Screenshot] [SNS Screenshot] [SNS Screenshot] Look at this, he's really 덕질하는 거 마즘 [really fangirling]^^… (Comments) -If it's real, he's 성덕ㅇㅇ [a successful fan] Is the scale of appearing on a broadcast to 덕질 [fangirl] real? -But it's really no joke;; What's with the 논문 [thesis] level on Instagramㅋㅋㅋㅋ -I like itㅎㅎ! To be 파다 [digging into] the same 최애 [favorite] as Hyang-nim, what kind of 횡재 [windfall] is thisㅠㅠㅠ [crying] I'm already looking forward to him breaking down all the 떡밥 [plot points/hints] into 나노단위 [nano units] and feeding it to us ㄴBut isn't it movie 덕질 [fangirling], not actor 덕질 [fangirling]? ㄴHe's 파다 [digging into] the movie…… and 파다 [digging into] the actor…… Isn't that what's going to happen?^^777 ㄴEven if he only 판다 [digs into] the movie, he's already 찬양하는 [praising] our Do-hee unnieㅋㅋㅋ ㄴBecause of Ki Han-hyang, Do-hee unnie and our Yeon-woo have to film a 우결 [We Got Married - a reality show where celebrities are paired as a married couple]ㅋ ㄴIs the 망붕종자 [delusional shipper] of the century being born……. * "We should give Ki Han-hyang a thank you." The small ball that Ki Han-hyang launched. Word of mouth begat word of mouth, which in turn begat word of mouth, calling people to people. What should I say, it felt like a booster was attached? Thanks to that, even though fatigue was piling up as they were almost touring the whole country for stage greetings, the assistant director's face had a pleased smile. His dark circles have come down to his chin because he's 초췌해진 [become haggard], but it felt like it didn't matter. "By the way, we're already close to two million, shouldn't we make a promise?" 38 percent of the reservation rate on the day of release. The opening score started with approximately 250,000 reserved viewers. Compared to the domestic box office records, it was a very unusual start. Due to the genre characteristics of romance, they predicted less than half of this number of viewers, but it wonderfully exceeded that prediction. [Remembering the most beautiful memories…… ‘The Most Beautiful Days’ ranks first among 역대 [all-time] Korean movies] [Hit movie ‘The Most Beautiful Days’ achieves first place in reservation rate!] [First place record surpassing existing romance movies, ‘The Most Beautiful Days’!] Of course, all sorts of articles poured out. It was a huge mess from all sides. The production company, as well as the cast, received an enormous amount of calls. Of course, there were also people who were calm amidst all this. -What did I tell you, Yeon-woo-ssi. I told you it would be a success, right? Kwon Seong-hyun said with a soft smile, as if he knew it would happen, -Hmm. It's a bit less than I thought……. Woo Do-gyeom muttered, frowning with his thick eyebrows as if he didn't like something. These two were the main characters. Well, except for these two, everyone was incredibly surprised that a 잔잔한 [calm/serene] romance movie was causing such a stir. According to what I heard, Director Ji chewed two 우황청심환 [herbal medicine for calming nerves] after hearing the score……. The first score was incredibly surprising, but even more surprising things happened from the next day. -70 percent reservation rate? Is that real? The data didn't come wrong, did it? -The 영진위 [Korean Film Council] system can't be wrong, so wouldn't it be real? -Look again carefully. Maybe we're filming a nationwide reality show. -Right……? It feels like that, doesn't it……? The assistant director spoke seriously. And even the staff were seriously taking it in. Everyone seemed to be out of their minds because of the unexpectedly unimaginable numbers. -70 percent……. Almost double the reservation rate. The very next day was the weekend, but the power of word of mouth was enormous. Nearly a million viewers flocked in just two days of release. Although Cheongwang intervened and suddenly became wealthy, 'The Most Beautiful Days' was basically a low-budget film. Everyone was 흐물대었다 [acting loose/relaxed] like cats 취한 [drunk] on catnip at the score that was more than double the first day's score. The only 냉정한 [calm/composed] person among them was none other than, -Everyone. This is real, so pull yourselves together. Yeon Do-hee. -Do-hee-ssi, aren't you surprised? Look at me. My heart is 막 뛰는데 [beating so hard] like it's about to break through my ribs……, -Of course I'm surprised. But it's too early to be happy yet. We just released it, so we shouldn't get excited already. We have to be 침착 [calm]. Shouldn't we be professionals? Everyone nodded at her 똑 부러지는 [articulate/clear-cut] words as if they were under a collective hypnosis. This included Yeon-woo. Yeon-woo was 정신이 몽롱했었다 [in a daze] for a slightly different reason. That reason was, [Successfully harvested lifespan.] [Lifespan harvested: 2 days] [Successfully harvested lifespan.] [Lifespan harvested: 4 days] [Successfully harvested lifespan.] [Lifespan harvested: 1 day] [Successfully….] [Harvested….] Because the lifespan was being updated quickly in real time. 'I'm not 정신이 하나도 없네 [not in my right mind].' Lifespans disappearing in vain for various reasons. The lifespans that Yeon-woo harvests are a portion of those lifespans that are wasted and disappear. He receives a very small portion of the lifespans that would have disappeared if he hadn't been there. 'It's been rare for it to come in so explosively lately, so it's unfamiliar.' The drama with a clear message. The music that encompasses the entire range of human emotions. I can fully understand how these two things have an impact. Even the voice that relieves insomnia. The reasons were relatively clear. But. 'I chose the movie because of its influence rather than its lifespan.' How much does romance affect life that these results are coming out? How great is the limited emotional realm of love? [Successfully harvested lifespan.] [Lifespan harvested: 1 day] [Successfully….] [Harvested….] Even in the midst of that, lifespan was steadily coming in. Oh well. I don't know. Yeon-woo gave up thinking deeply. 'The good is good, right?' The story that lifespan is coming in is the story that he has influenced enough to save a part of someone's life. In a word, it's 상부상조 [win-win]. Yeon-woo decided to think that way. It was absolutely not because the emotion of love was unfamiliar. It's absolutely not because of reasons like that 모 모시기 [something something] word. Absolutely. "So, what should we do for the promise?" Now, on the 4th day of release. The audience score had already far exceeded one million. It seems that the sense of reality disappears at this point, and the staff and actors were actually calmer than before. "We were going to do it for the first time at two million, but it seems a bit late to make a promise now, so how about we start by giving thanks at two million?" Nearly two million viewers in the first week of release. It was like writing a new indicator in the history of romance movies. Everyone nodded at Yeon Do-hee's suggestion. "Then let's do a big bow! We can make a promise after the greeting. The three million promise is to have Yeo-won and Joo-young go on a date, like we said before!" The point is that it's a date as Yeo-won and Joo-young, not Yeon-woo and Yeon Do-hee. "If it succeeds, this…… is the first promise I've ever succeeded in." The staff's faces were filled with determination as they looked at Yeon Do-hee, who was smiling 배시시 [brightly]. "Of course we'll go to three million!" "I heard there are already people 회전문 [going back to watch repeatedly], so three million will be easy!" So much so that, "Do-hee-ssi…… I will definitely…… somehow……." Even Director Ji looked at Yeon Do-hee and made a resolution. It's an era where anyone can go to a ten million movie in words. However, many movies have already proven how difficult that is. There are movies that 찍는 [reach] a million on the first day, not to mention five million in the first week, but then 맥없이 고꾸라지는 [collapse powerlessly] in the second week. 'The Most Beautiful Days' also has very 준수하다 [decent], but 넘치는 [overflowing] first week's score, but we don't know what will happen next week. "No. I have to think positively. There's also the saying that things come true as you think." It was a word worthy of the owner of a 꿋꿋한 심성의 [resolute spirit] who has not left the film industry despite the movies he has 찍었던 망했어도 [made having failed]. "Um. I've thought about promises up to seven million…… What should I do for ten million?" "Let's think about that then. There's still time to think. First of all…… shall we focus on work first?" The 잡담 [chatting] to relieve tension is over. Yeon Do-hee said, 단박에 휘어잡으며 [instantly taking control of] the chaotic atmosphere. [Did you enjoy the movie? We have invited special guests to join us in this 자리 [event]. Please welcome them with applause!] The host's voice, 울리는 힘차게 [resonating powerfully] from outside, was heard. It was the voice announcing the start of the stage greeting. The movie theater staff opened the thick soundproof wall. It was time to go to work.
