@CarolynH, the first thing that gets a drama rolling is the pitch...This means pitching an idea for the drama to a studio (production team) and then finding a network. What studios like these provide are equipment, sets, and many other things. Because of this, networks like to know that there is studio backing so that it's guaranteed that the show that they have ordered is under works. Producers intertwine with this as well because they're the ones that take control of the production. They cast the actors, hire the director and writers, take care of the contracts and budget, as well as find sponsors. Once the pitch is picked up and everything is sorted out, the revisions are next. The process of the revisions is pretty simply put. Both the studio and the network are going to have things that they'd like changed. Each has certain visions for this project, and more often than not they'll butt heads over what exactly they want to be put into this drama. Because the network is the one who's buying the project, their word overrides that which the studio may want. Either way, both the studio and the network are going to be trying to put together a drama that appeals to their fixed audiences. It's incredibly important for everyone in the working of this drama to be on the same page.  Once everyone agrees with the revisions and is on the same page, an outline is put out to then be sent to the screenwriter. They put together the first draft script, send it in, and then the network and studio get back to them with more outlined changes that they'd like made. Once you get to this stage of the game where the first episode script is completed it's time for casting to begin. There are a few different ways that casting can undergo, depending on how exactly the drama is being written as well as the image that the network and writers may have for this particular project. There may be certain actors that the director has worked with previously and thinks would be good for the role, or someone who's popular in the industry and the team thinks would fit the role perfectly. When this is the case they offer that role to the actor's agency or the actor themselves with the script and outline and wait for a response on whether or not they're interested in the role at hand. Besides the main lead roles, which more often than not are filled by at least one currently popular actor, casting is usually done by agencies and through auditions. The goal here is to find someone that fits the image and can easily represent the character at hand.

In Korea, for those who are not in an A-list, they walk-in for auditions. Depending on which field the auditionee wants to try out for, they are encouraged to prepare different things such as a song to sing & dance if you audition for being a singer, & a scene to perform for an acting audition. During the audition, the judges or whoever is in the room look for both talent and personality, as well as marketability. Another option is to send the company a video audition, which usually done by those A-list celebrities. This kind of audition is actually less intimidating than a walk-in one.

hi, this isn't related to pachinko but please do you know why min ho doesn't have a tvn drama or cable TV drama? also why are his shows always on sbs?  is it that tvn and other cable TVs don't want him and never send him scripts? or he just doesn't accept? are actors in charge of where they want their drama to air?

So I think we already know we won’t have a Kdrama in 2021, someone said on Twitter that casting news for early 2022 are coming out, but I don’t think first half of 2022 has already filled up. Right?? I can’t believe we don’t have a Kdrama in 2021, it’s going to feel lonely and I haven’t watched any of these news dramas. 
Hopefully we get a Kdrama in 2022! 

omg noooo, who said that? where did you see it?

i read it on Twitter, I don’t know! But we all know that casting news come way before a drama airs, news of some of these upcoming dramas came long long time ago. Getting Kdrama 2021 is already out of question IMO, I was hoping we would get a drama in second half but it doesn’t seem like it. We should pray for early 2022 Kdrama, but even for that we shouldn’t be getting the news too late, broadcasting channels line up their dramas so fast, in a blink of an eye! LMH on the other hand doesn’t seem to be thinking about a new project considering he is still working on Pachinko and will be filming in Canada. Then when he comes back, he may take some time off. I don’t know honestly! But I understood from his interview that if he really likes his offer and role, he won’t hesitate and will take the offer quickly. He came back with pachinko news only 4 months after TKEM! 
 

he said he would give us more good news in 2021, I’m wondering what he was referring to, projects or other activities such as magazine and other stuff. 

From his speech and greetings, I was almost sure he had already chosen a project but after reading his interview and also pachinko filming schedule i don’t think he has any project in mind. We didn’t get the smallest hint in his interview about new project. 
 

edit: by the way, you can also google and check some websites to see what 2022 Kdrama are confirmed

Filming in Korea actually ended a long time ago and not recently. The time when we saw group pics was the time they ended Korea filming. 
 

 

I wanna hear news from LMH, not this actress or that actress   When will the male lead of Pachinko, our Minho, go to Canada? Give me that article!!

@Min2206, I couldn't agree with you more --- Simply jaw-dropping, simply breathtaking!

Same with me too, his side profile is so breathtaking,that we could just look at him 24/7. How could we not love this angel. 

And I adore how he holds that little puppy,as though he is playing and holding his little "baby"

I would think perhaps they are getting the preparation and the green light to travel in view of the current pandemic. 

Yes, we would be very happy  to be able to see MH airport runaway fashion

Thank yoy @willenette!  I didn't mean for you to go through so much trouble, but I'm sure we all appreciate understand the process better.

I think it was/is more like SBS wants LMH.  I do think TKEM is the end of the relationship.

I think he also is planning to go camping with LSG.  I would love to see a mlog of that adventure.

I was just listening to some City Hunter ost. when this video popped up. Maybe I'm the only one who didn't see it I was really surprised to see the singer in this show. Hope you all enjoy this song as it is one of my favorite of CH.  Enjoy your weekend!

i wish that they will release the audition clip later on if its available. i want to see the producers/writer and the director's impression on lmh

I would love to see the audition.

What do you guys think of a members appreciation day?  

A couple of ideas I had are reposting your first post and commenting how (or if) your feelings about LMH have changed, posting your favorite photo, video etc, maybe a zoom party (at various times during the day so everyone can participate.  Any other ideas or thoughts?  We bound to hit a dry period once LMH starts to film again.  I'm thinking mid Feb?  @Thong Thin, you say you've been a fan for 11 years?  I'd love to hear how your feelings have changed.  @willenette I've seen your name since BOF, so I'd also love to have your comments.

@Intisar G that is a pretty song.

Lee Min Ho and Jung Eun Chae of “The King: Eternal Monarch”

These two characters may be fighting for a royal position, but it cannot be denied that their fashion looks like royalty. Lee Geon’s (Lee Min Ho) impeccably tailored custom suits make him look elegant no matter what universe, while Goo Seo Ryeong’s (Jung Eun Chae) sophisticated dresses and classy outfits add to her image of an ambitious, driven woman who will do anything to clinch power.

I still have more than 10 pages back to read.  
I'm afraid I will not post any because I'm so busy recently. But I don't miss anything about our boy. I've watched all his new Vlog, interview, and etc.

Don't know whether to call it absorbing or magnetic.  

And thank you @willenette for the detailed explanation on pitching to revision, scripting to casting , audition to filming.  From you, I learn the difference between producer and director.   
You are simply awesome.

I think so too.  I hope they do.   LSG is so used to travel overseas or outskirts and would love to see LMH with him, casual and comfortable, be it under the sun or stars.

LEE MIN HO SHOWS OFF HIS TALENTS AS AN MV DIRECTOR

 

 

Lee Min Ho will be in charge of directing the music video for one of Lee Seung Gi's songs, so he showed his talent outside of acting and the great vision he possesses when it comes to planning productions.

 

Lee Min Ho Films' channel showed us how the preparations for this filming are going. The new collaborative clip between the South Korean actors begins with them walking down a street while carrying some equipment that will be necessary to record the progress of the video .

 

We hear Lee Min Ho continually raise his thoughts and explain to Seung Gi what image they are trying to capture in the video, but when they meet a music producer the brainstorming continues.

 

LEE MIN HO SHARES HIS DIRECTORIAL VISION AND EARNS SOME COMPLIMENTS

The protagonist of The King: Eternal Monarch gave suggestions about the vibe they should convey through the clip they are going to shoot and also considered what kinds of scenes should be present, for which he received feedback on how well it suited his role. as director.

 

The union of several visions for this project allowed them to propose a more concrete plan of what they are going to record and what they want to transmit, so we will soon have some surprises as part of this collaboration .

@desy, I guess it's SBS who always acquired the rights first to broadcast his dramas. This is what I feel.....to answer your question - I really don't know.....why cable dramas don't acquire the rights, I guess they're already full & no available slots anymore for any acquisition. An actor has no say where & what networks their drama to air unless they're the ones producing it. It's the producer who offer it to networks.

thanks for your explanation but I seriously don't like sbs......now that tkem didn't give them their desired ratings and they treated it like total trash, can they stopping acquiring the rights of his dramas?!
