The long-awaited "Hundred Day Lang Jun" was finally broadcast, and the premiere set a new record for the premiere ratings of Korean limited television stations
For the performance of the main actor exo member Du Jingxiu in the play, Korean netizens who have always been very harsh on the acting skills of idols also gave a rare high evaluation
After the second episode was broadcast, the Douban score was also brushed to a high score of 9.1
This is Du Jingxiu's first appearance in a costume drama, playing a superficially cold and harsh personality, but in fact, there is a brave and resourceful, and affectionate and dedicated Wang Shizi - Li Lu
The once innocent child, in the coup d'état caused by his father's provocation to win the throne, not only lost his mother who loved him, but also witnessed the family of the girl he liked being framed to death
It is also in this way that he has always been very wary of others when he "smoothly" became a Prince Shizi, and the freedom of others has become his "uncomfortable" reason in his eyes
However, Wang Shizi's seemingly glorious heart, but has always been entangled in pain and guilt, but no one can understand, obviously only want to be an ordinary person who has something to do, but he was tricked by fate and embarked on the road to becoming Wang Shizi
In the 16 years since entering the palace, sixty-nine thousand three hundred and twenty-nine hours have never smiled
Even if he didn't want to do it in his heart, the domineering and arrogant arrogance that Wang Shizi should have in his bones was also something that could be understood by a look
The decisions made are also determined and unrepentant
The absurd suggestions made by the ministers are also full of disdain, and they should refuse to refuse
The questioning of his weak but lustful father was also calm and revealing contempt
But even such a cold Wang Shizi has a gentle side in his heart, and the moment he sees his first love under the cherry blossom tree, he will show a look of deep affection for ten thousand years
It is difficult to get out of the palace, and I will also want to put down the disguised coat and return to my original intention
And an accident, so that the perfectionist Wang Shizi into a useless man with amnesia - Won-deok, has since begun the story of a hundred-day adventure with North Korea's oldest resentful woman, Hong Xin (Nam Ji-hyun), which seems to be a Korean costume version of "The Prince Becomes a Frog"
Although the role of Yuan De has not yet been launched in the content now broadcast, from the trailer, one person plays two characters with different personalities, plus a unique and deep voice, which is also quite exciting
In fact, in South Korea, where idol competition is fierce, more and more idols will choose to broaden their business capabilities from variety shows, hosting, acting, etc., and acting skills are the most difficult to be recognized by the public, and they are also the most complained about
Few idols can rely on their own talent and hard work to grow into an actor recognized by the audience in a short period of time, and Du Xuanxiu is one of them, and it is precisely because of his excellent acting skills that he has also been crowned with the title of "sm acting light"
Switching from an idol singer to an actor is really not a one-time thing, even if I have won a lot of awards in acting now, I still humbly say "there are many things to learn"
In July 2014, Du Xuanxiu starred in his first TV series "It's Okay, It's Love", although not the protagonist, the acting skills are also a little green, but still use their own efforts to play the role of the male protagonist's fantasy, the high school student who dreams of becoming a writer, but because of domestic violence and replaced by schizophrenia - Han Jiangyu
The look of fear because of violence, the convulsions of illness, the look of tears of sadness and despair are all vividly interpreted by him
And finally said goodbye to the male protagonist in the ward, pretending to be strong and childish to ask for forgiveness, at that moment seemed to understand what is called "laughter without tears, but overflowing with screen of sadness"
Even South Korean media people commented, "At first, I thought it was a newcomer actor, but I didn't expect it to be an idol."
It was this TV series that earned him the Male Newcomer Award at the Ota TV Drama Festival
Subsequently, whether it is the inferior and introverted teenager in the movie "Shopping Cart" - Tai Ying
The dark murderer in "Remember You" - Lee Joon Young
The national judo player in "Brother" who was blinded by accident - Dou Ying
The low-energy soldier who is specially cared for in "Walking with God" - Yuan Yibing
In "Room Seven", a college student working on a DVD to repay student loans - Zhengtai
Or the rural teenager with the character of Mu Ne in "Pure Love" - Park Fan-sil
Each work bears witness to the growth of the actor Du Jingxiu, from an obscure idol actor step by step to winning Korea's highest actor award, the Blue Dragon Award for the Best Newcomer Actor and the Best Popular Actor at the Baeksang Arts Awards
Perhaps in the eyes of some people, Du Jingxiu does have talent in acting, but it is inseparable from his own efforts
Born in an idol group, with high popularity, but has a very clear plan for their own actor path, small roles to cultivate acting skills, and then slowly try some different challenges, even villain roles
For acting, what is the idol baggage? Completely non-existent!
Flat head said shaving, a removal is more than two years
Tanning and gaining weight didn't mind at all
Hate sports, but exercise like crazy for acting
In order to star in "Swing Kids", a North Korean teenager who is addicted to tap dancing, Do Kyung-so conducts a long period of high-intensity tap dance training
For many people, the popular group exo member d.o is more familiar than the name of the actor Du Jingxiu
The lead singer's magnetic and artistic voice and wide vocal range are also impressive, and even The Songs in English and Chinese, which are difficult for Koreans to pronounce, can be perfectly interpreted
In high school, he formed a band and served as the lead singer, and it was precisely because of his excellent singing skills that he was discovered by scouts after winning awards in participating in the Youth Song Festival
In 2012, before his official debut, the outstanding singing ability in the first public debut overture "What is love" received widespread attention
Subsequently, the exo albums "xoxo", "exodus" and "monster" have reached three million consecutive sales, becoming a veritable sales king in South Korea
As a solo singer, both sm's co-op and TV series o.s.t have good results
Although he has an extra actor's identity, he has never forgotten that he is a singer
No matter how busy the itinerary as an actor is, the itinerary of the group must be in the first place, and over the years, there is no shortage of songs and concerts
For fans, it is also very caring, no matter when it will put "health first, pay attention not to get sick" on the lips
From the lead singer of the Tiantuan Troupe to the powerful actor, from the album Million Awards to the most popular male actor, in Du Jingxiu, he has always been low-key diligence and concentration
Not bragging about fame and fortune, not proud of achievements, every song and every role is his best witness, this idol flower road is really very solid!
