    Just when many people thought that the ratings of "The Crown Prince's First Love" would reach another peak, it ushered in its strongest competitor - "Full House" starring Song Hye Kyo and RAIN broadcast by KBS TV.  Song Hye Kyo is currently the most popular and beloved actress in South Korea. She is a new generation actress who has become famous throughout Asia for her role as Eun Hee in "Blue Life and Death: Autumn Fairy Tale".  If we only compare the current popularity in South Korea, Sung Yuri may not necessarily lose to Song Hye Kyo. Even if she loses, she won't lose much, because Sung Yuri once had too many fans; but if we only talk about the impression in the minds of TV viewers,  Especially in the minds of the Opbasans who are the main force in TV ratings, Sung Yuri is definitely one or two levels behind Song Hye Kyo. After all, the roles played by Song Hye Kyo were too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and too pitiable, while Sung Yuri has just transformed.  A newcomer to the entertainment industry for several years.  ¡°More than their beauty, the two are more distinctive, and it¡¯s hard to tell them apart. Although Seong Yuri is taller, there are many men who like petite women like Song Hye Kyo.  In terms of acting skills, Sung Yuri, a newcomer in acting, can never compare with Song Hye Kyo, a veteran who has been in the film and television industry since 1996.  If we have to say that Cheng Yuli has an absolute advantage in one aspect, it would only be singing. In this aspect, Cheng Yuli, a professional singer, is certainly better. Unfortunately, singing ability has basically nothing to do with the ratings of TV series.  Therefore, generally speaking, Sung Yuri cannot be compared with Song Hye Kyo in the eyes of TV viewers. Her identity as a singer-turned-actor has been widely questioned by many people of color.  Let¡¯s compare the male protagonists of the two TV series.  RAIN, the male protagonist of "Full House", is also the hottest figure in the music industry at the moment, and his popularity is not inferior to that of Cha Tae-hyun at all.  Although RAIN's acting skills are much inferior, he plays a star in the drama. It can be said that he is performing in his true colors, and there is no need to pay too much attention to his acting skills.  In addition, RAIN's tall, handsome appearance and fashionable attire also surpass Cha Tae Hyun, a grassroots star, by a few blocks, and obviously make girls scream and be obsessed.  Among the actors in "The Crown Prince's First Love", the only one who can definitely surpass his opponent is the second male lead Zhang Chengyuan.  Although Kim Sung-soo, the second male lead in "Full House", is also very good and not too young, he just debuted last year and is obviously not able to compare with Jang Sung-won, who has been so popular recently. In addition, Jang Sung-won also has an advantage in terms of appearance, acting skills, etc.  , it can be said that Kim Sung-soo was defeated in all aspects.  Of course, in the opinion of a few people, the gentle gentleman played by Kim Sung-soo is more suitable as a boyfriend or husband than the cold man played by Jang Sung-won.  But this obviously doesn't matter.  The contest between actors is secondary. The real reason why "Full House" will surpass "The Crown Prince's First Love" is that the plot of the former is more novel and interesting than that of the latter.  In addition to funding, director, and actors, the script is the most important thing for the success of a TV series.  In this regard, it is obvious that "The Crown Prince's First Love" fails miserably.  The plot of "The Crown Prince's First Love" is an old-fashioned plot of Cinderella and the prince, which is no longer new. Although the work of replacing old bottles with new ones has been done in some places, nothing new has been changed.  The story of "Full House" takes place in the entertainment industry, which is mysterious to the public. It is a refreshing love story between a big star and a small screenwriter. There is not much suffering, but more about slapstick and fun.  The love story of the heart can be said to be contrary to the mainstream model of Korean dramas in the past. It is refreshing and fresh for the audience, which arouses the curiosity to watch.  This is also an important reason why this drama achieved a good rating of 21% when it first aired.  If there was no "Full House", perhaps the audience would still be addicted to the traditional model of Korean dramas as before, because they didn't know that love stories could be made in such an interesting and hilarious way, so "The Crown Prince's First Love" would not be the same.  It will be strongly attacked, and the ratings will not plummet from about 31% last week to 24.5%. If Jang Chengyuan's popularity had not unexpectedly exploded in the past two weeks, which increased the ratings, then the current ratings would definitely be below 20%.  .  But what can be predicted is that as "Full House" becomes more popular, if some rescue work is not done, "The Crown Prince's First Love" will sooner or later fail and end in disastrous failure.  Director Lee Kwan-hee, screenwriter Jung Jin-young, and the director of the broadcasting bureau of MBC TV station were also worried about it. After urgent consultation, they felt that the script should be revised.  But at this time, more than half of the scenes have been filmed, and nearly three-quarters of the funds have been used. Is there enough time to modify the plot at this time?  Moreover, even if it is modified reluctantly, it may not be able to win the favor of the audience and save the declining ratings. ??????????????????? But it¡¯s impossible not to change it. If you don¡¯t change it, you will only be dead. But the skeleton of the script has been decided, and if you want to change it, you can only fix the details. Maybe the final ending can also be slightly changed.  But can this save the situation?  Neither the director nor the screenwriter had much confidence.  In order to get better solutionsSo the director and screenwriter gathered the main members of the crew and several main actors together and asked everyone to brainstorm, but in the end they still couldn't come up with any good ideas.  Maybe it¡¯s not that I didn¡¯t think of a way, but that I didn¡¯t dare to say it out loud, because if the way I came up with doesn¡¯t work, not everyone can afford the consequences.  So everyone either didn't speak or just said some nonsensical polite words, and in the end the meeting had to come to nothing.  Zhang Chengyuan thought of a solution that was not a solution, which was to increase his role in the show. With his current sudden popularity, he might be able to barely maintain the ratings at the current level.  But how could he express this kind of suggestion by himself?  Saying it will only offend people in vain, and it will leave a bad impression that you are trying to stand out.  He would rather the show be reduced in episode number or even canceled by the TV station, rather than do such a stupid thing that would damage his own image, and he would never let Cheng Yuli say such a thing for him.  ??In fact, it doesn¡¯t matter to him. In the following filming, he found that he seemed to have a lot more roles, and he was almost the same as the male lead Cha Taehyun. In some aspects, he was even easier to excel.  Zhang Chengyuan was a little happy, but he was more worried that it would affect the harmony among the crew, especially his relationship with Cha Taehyun.  He was worried that Cha Taixian would misunderstand what shady tricks he had used to increase his role so much.  At first, Zhang Chengyuan thought that he might be worrying too much, but later even Cheng Yuri asked him privately: "Did your agent Park Byungyeol do something behind his back?" This made him think that his worries were not unnecessary.  Zhang Chengyuan quickly found Cha Taehyun and explained to him. Cha Taehyun smiled and said: "Boy, don't be burdened. In fact, I took the initiative to ask the screenwriter to do this. I think if you increase your role, the ratings will no longer decline.  , so I am still willing to make this small sacrifice, because if this TV series loses miserably to the opponent, or even ends early, then I may suffer endless criticism from the media and the audience, in which case I will definitely feel depressed.  I'm sick." After a pause, he continued: "I do this because I hope you can help me and share the pressure. I hope you won't blame me for making my own decisions!" Zhang Chengyuan said quickly: "Brother Taixian.  , you are joking, thank you for the compliment, I will work harder." In any case, increasing the role is a good thing for him.
