At the end of 2005, a costume TV series "Princess Diao Man" set off a boom in the Chinese film and television industry, and many people fell deeply in love with the heroine "Situ Jing".
The actor Zhang Nala also became popular with her lively and cute image, becoming the first Batch of Korean female artists to become popular in China.
And was strongly welcomed by the Chinese masses, and its popularity was not lower than that of Song Huiqiao, who later became popular.
Zhang Nala, who is deeply loved by the public, was invited to participate in the "Jackie Chan and His Friends" Nanjing concert the following year.
At the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Zhang Nala served as the Olympic torchbearer and sang "Welcome to Beijing" with a group of artists.
Zhang Nala's acting career in China should have been brilliant, but because of a sentence, her future was ruined.
What happened to her, who had been banned for 12 years?
In 1981, when the "Busan Crane Forest Incident" appeared in South Korea, Jang Na-ra came to life.
Her father was a famous Korean stage actor Jang Ran-taught, so Jang Na-la, who inherited her father's good genes, has superior artistic cells.
As the youngest daughter in the family, Zhang Nala naturally receives all the pampering from her parents and brother.
This not only developed Zhang Nala's lively and lovely personality, but also made her have the characteristics of frankness and simplicity.
But everything is two-sided, Zhang Nala has no heart and at the same time there is a "habit" of mouthlessness.
Zhang Nala's father hoped that the two children would inherit his mantle, so he guided them to learn art when they were young.
When Zhang Nala was five years old, Zhang Ranjiao often appeared in his own stage plays with a cute and well-behaved little Nala.
Holding his daughter's hand, he solemnly said to the same time: "My daughter will definitely be a dragon and phoenix among people in the future."
While other children were immersed in play every day, Zhang Nala adapted to the time on the stage early.
It is even possible to face the full audience without being nervous and insisting on finishing the performance.
The family determines a person's starting point, and Zhang Nala has become a veritable "little artist" under the influence of the family.
In order to send Zhang Nala into the show business circle, Zhang Nala's father received advertisements for her when her beauty first appeared.
At that time, Zhang Nala had just entered the sixth grade and filmed advertisements for student supplies.
In South Korea, many student supplies stores can see Zhang Nala's figure.
When Zhang Nala went to middle school, her father received some chocolate advertisements for her.
Sweet-looking, she, with the way of shooting advertisements, mixed with "face familiarity" in front of the Korean masses.
When the new century came, South Korea suddenly blew the wind of "idol culture".
Many people rushed to the show business one after another, wanting to be the big star who was above ten thousand people under one person.
As an "insider", Zhang Ranjiao decisively took his daughter, who had just come of age, to "kill it".
Although Zhang Nala often shot advertisements when she was studying, it did not bring a vicious impact on her study life.
At the end of high school, Jang Na-ra was successfully admitted to Seoul National University, the top of the Korean university rankings, and chose the drama department that best suited the idol path.
Although Zhang Nala has an excellent appearance and rich stage experience, she has chosen the music path that she is interested in.
He published a series of songs during college and released his first album, First Story.
The popularity accumulated over the years and her father's publicity have made Zhang Nala's debut album highly praised.
In 2001, Janara won the Best Female Singer Award at the Korean Television Song Awards for this album.
In this regard, Jang Nala's name has received widespread attention in South Korea.
Zhang Nala, who tasted sweetness in the music industry, immediately released her second album "Sweet dream".
As soon as this album came out, it was loved by the Chinese and Korean people.
Jang Na-ra won two titles at the Korean TV Song Awards this year, becoming a well-deserved popular female singer.
Just when everyone thought that Zhang Nala had "settled" in the music industry, she suddenly turned into the acting world.
Relying on her father's support, Zhang Nala smoothly transformed from a "popular singer" to a "popular actor".
In 2002, Zhang Nala starred in the TV series "The Success of a Bright Girl" written and directed by Li Ximing, playing the simple and kind country girl Yang Shun.
As a fledgling woman, she has gained a large wave of fans with her sweet looks and natural acting skills, and the ratings of this TV series are exceptionally high.
Zhang Nala's road to fame is very smooth, not only because she has a "qualified" father, but also because of her own efforts.
Zhang Nala, who has established a firm foothold in the TV drama industry, has turned herself into a "big cake" and developed a film career.
Co-produced the romantic comedy "Naughty Girl Courtship" with the handsome Park Jeong-chul, and the lively and mischievous heroine Kong Ji-ji played by Jang Na-ra won two awards.
The first is the Best Female Newcomer Award at the 40th Daejong Awards in South Korea, and the other is the Best Actress Award at the Daejong Awards.
Zhang Nala, who has a good image and good temperament, was also invited to participate in the image ambassador of the "Guangzhou International Film Festival" held in South Korea.
She became an all-round female star in South Korea, dominating the film and television industry and the music industry.
But Zhang Nala's father, Zhang Ranjiao, looked at his daughter's scenery infinitely and launched a worry, and her daughter can rise rapidly and naturally there will be a new person to replace.
Moreover, he has been in the art world for many years, and he knows that the stars of South Korea are very rapid, and it is not certain that one day his daughter will become yesterday's yellow flower.
Scheming, he found a new path for his daughter - to open the market and go abroad.
First of all, Zhang Nala was recommended by her father to go to neighboring Japan to develop.
Zhang Nala, who came to Japan, organized several concerts, but in the end there was not much repercussions.
Probably the Japanese people are not very interested in Zhang Nala's sweet voice, after all, Japan has never lacked female singers with sweet voices.
Zhang Nala and her father, who did not benefit, soon abandoned Japan and returned to China to study the next step.
At that time, although China's performing arts industry was in full swing, the idol market had not yet been fully opened.
In 2003, when Zhang Nala arrived in China, she appeared at the CCTV Music Awards Ceremony.
Dressed in a white puffy skirt, curly hair and double ponytail pure and cute.
At that time, although Zhang Nala was popular throughout South Korea, she was only a new character with outstanding appearance in the eyes of Chinese audiences.
So, coming to China means starting over.
With no identity and no works, the first play she received in China was starring Liu Yifei, the "Immortal Sister".
Zhang Nala is only a small supporting role in the play, but she looks bright and will not lose in the same frame as Liu Yifei.
During the filming process, Zhang Nala felt that her acting skills were lacking.
So in the following year, he went to the Beijing Film Academy to study for a while.
At that time, Beijing Yahuan Audio and Television and Guangdong Superstar Pictures wanted to cooperate in the production of the costume comedy series "Princess Diao Man", and finally selected The Korean actor Zhang Nala.
"Diao Man Princess" is also known as the new version of "Huan Zhu Gege", and the role chosen must be lively and cute.
The most important thing is to have a pair of big eyes, and Zhang Nala was naturally selected.
However, due to the fact that Zhang Nala is not very familiar with Chinese, the male protagonist Su Youpeng cannot understand Korean.
The two people are very cumbersome when filming, and they often have to memorize all the lines of the opponent scenes of "Situ Jing and Zhu Yun" in order to shoot smoothly.
The 33-episode film took a year to shoot and premiered in December 2005.
The plot of this drama is compact, the appearance of all the staff is very high, and it is matched with a little Mary Sue component, which makes many viewers fascinated.
"Diao Man Princess" is not only very popular in China, but also in South Korea and Southeast Asian countries have set off a wave of ratings.
The audience especially liked to play zhang Nala, a "crayfish dressed as a woman", whose fame was unparalleled at the time.
Subsequently, enthusiastic fans also found two albums released by Zhang Nala in China, "My Story" and "One".
These two albums, which were not very famous, triggered a buying trend due to the popularity of Zhang Nala.
Many fans have snapped up Nala's album, hoping to "lean closer" to their idols.
However, there are some unscrupulous vendors who make pirated CDs for sale to Zhang Nala's fans for huge profits.
Eventually, the lawbreakers were exposed and punished by the law.
In order to support copyright, Zhang Nala was invited to participate in the National Copyright Protection 100 Singers Concert.
While the iron was hot, Zhang Nala followed the heat and released her fourth album "She".
At that time, Zhang Nala was so famous that just look at the Beijing Olympic Games.
When recording the Beijing Philharmonic Games promotional song "Welcome to Beijing", Zhang Nala was the only foreign actress.
Dressed in pale yellow, she sang in her Chinese:
"Let's all work hard to surpass ourselves"
The sweet smile stood out from the crowd and was very conspicuous.
Not only that, but she was also the torchbearer of Seoul's representative at the Beijing Olympic Games, symbolizing the friendship between China and South Korea.
Zhang Nala seized the first batch of domestic "Korean Wave", with the help of this boldness and strength, Zhang Nala earned a lot of money.
Many people speculate that Zhang Nala will definitely be popular throughout Asia and have a bright future.
But fate played a big joke on her, and her acting career came to an abrupt end at its peak.
In the 2009 Korean variety show "Strong Heart", Zhang Nala's mouth was fully expressed.
When the show reached the later stage, Zhang Nala completely "opened" herself.
First, he said that his father was keen to invest in movies, and used the money he made to shoot advertisements to invest, but he lost all of them.
There was no way but to change the way, so my father began to work as a producer.
But since my father became a producer, the family's funds have not been very generous.
I had to desperately shoot advertisements and take public performances.
Originally very normal words, but the spearhead turned, Zhang Nala suddenly mentioned China.
"If you think about it, I really go to China a lot!"
Probably for the sake of program effect, the program team deliberately marked the screen with Chinese: I always need to go to China to make money...
Originally, the words would not have caused much controversy, but Zhang Nala seemed to feel that she was not clear enough.
Explainingly, "I often go to China, and then I go to China again when there is an invitation." ”
The program team still carries the "spirit of entertainment", and this sentence translates as: Every time the production cost is tight, it will go to China to perform!
In connection with the upper and lower words, it is not difficult to find that this sentence "simplified" means "go to China when you lack money.".
When the audience saw this, they took off their powder and commented on the social platform that Zhang Nala's behavior was "circle money behavior".
In the "crisis-ridden" entertainment circle, perhaps no one stepped on it when it became popular, but when there was a problem, there would be an overwhelming insult.
Zhang Nala was also crowned with the title of "making money in China" and was spurned by netizens across the country.
It's like a huge joke in time and space, and it's like fate is full of malicious teasing.
Zhang Nala was really a curse coming out of her mouth, and she fell from the clouds to the bottom of the valley in one fell swoop.
Although Zhang Nala later apologized many times and clarified that she was not making money in China, it was a misunderstanding.
Even Zhang Nala's father, Zhang Ranjiao, stood up to clarify his daughter's language mistakes, hoping to get forgiveness from Chinese audiences.
In order to save her image in the minds of Chinese people, Zhang Nala and her father created the sketch "Learning Chinese" together to express her friendliness to China.
In 2010, she acted in the TV series of the same type as "Princess Diao Man".
But Zhang Nala, who has "social death", has no way to save her image.
Not long after, Zhang Nala, who was anxious to return to the peak, found Lin Zhiying, the "immortal male god".
The two collaborated on the romantic comedy movie "FlyIng Together", which is different from the naughty and lively in the costume drama, with short hair more blunt and noble.
But even if she cooperated with the male god, Zhang Nala still did not recover her own loss of being outspoken for a while.
After all, netizens will never tolerate it in the national aspect, and they will not forgive those who damage the country's reputation and interests.
Seeing that she could not continue to stay in China's acting industry, Zhang Nala had no choice but to return to South Korea to shoot.
But South Korean stars changed quickly, and soon new artists took her place.
Her distorted remarks were also deeply rejected in the Korean entertainment industry.
In the understanding of South Korean executives, Zhang Nala's meaning has become: Chinese artists are good at making money, south Korea is not easy to earn, that is, South Korea is poor!
Although there is no positive criticism of Zhang Nala, her resources are no longer as good as before.
Even Zhang Nala boldly said in an interview with a Korean program that there are too many unspoken rules in the entertainment industry now, and she often encounters directors who use their hands and feet.
Even sometimes it was dangerous to go to the bathroom, and she had encountered this situation hundreds of times in just one or two years.
If your psychological endurance is weak, you must have collapsed a long time ago.
Looking at the situation in the Korean entertainment industry, Zhang Nala's want to come to China to shoot a drama is a wise move.
Even if Zhang Nala's sentence "come to China when you lack money" is very harsh, for the Chinese film and television industry, her words are actually a truth.
After all, the film and television industry in the mainland is paid sky-high, and it is also true that foreign actors want to come to China to share a piece of the pie and make more money.
But there are some words that everyone knows.
Once it is put on the table, the face of both sides cannot be passed.
From 2004 to 2014, Zhang Nala experienced the peak of film and television in the past ten years in China, and also suffered from the rumors of the trough period.
Zhang Nala, who had just returned to South Korea, worked very hard and had to shoot at least one play a year.
But during the period of Development in China, Zhang Nala gradually faded from the vision of Korean audiences.
It is not an easy task to return to the ceiling of the Korean film and television industry through a few plays.
In 2017, the fantasy love series "Confession Couple" filmed by Jannara was deeply loved by the Korean people.
Zhang Nala also gradually regained her former position and worked harder to contribute to the film and television industry.
Until 2019, "The Queen's Character" turned out to be the world, once again pushing Zhang Nala to the cusp of the storm.
At the award ceremony of the K-pop TV Drama Women's Acting Award, Zhang Nala said with tears in her eyes:
"I thought I was older and would do well, even if it was a small improvement, I was trying to do better. Even if I struggle, I want to be a better actor. ”
While the years regained her radiance, it seemed to give her an ageless countenance.
Even after many years, Zhang Nala standing on the stage is still as beautiful and lovely as the "Cruel Princess" of that year.
Just under the young and beautiful skin bag, there is a pair of mature and indifferent eyes.
Probably because of the career downturn, Zhang Nala opened a milk tea shop in South Korea and personally endorsed herself.
But when this photo was seen by domestic netizens, many people ridiculed her:
"I couldn't make any money in China, so I returned to South Korea to start a depressed milk tea business."
It can be seen that Zhang Nala's words at that time had an influence in the minds of the Chinese people that could not be shaken.
Up to now, Zhang Nala is 40 years old, and although there have been many scandals in her body, she has not yet married
Zhang Nala said in an interview that her father often urged marriage, but she hoped to marry in China.
But these ideas are ultimately just a bubble, after all, everyone is responsible for what they do, even after more than a decade.
Just imagine, if she hadn't said that sentence at that time, she would have become a star like Jeon Ji-hyun long ago.
But imagination is imagination after all, and there will be no regret medicine in the world.
It's time to say goodbye at the end of the road
The heart has been beating heartbreak like a vow
When you want to go to the edge of the sky
I was left at that point of origin
The moon never comes true Dreams never come true, happiness and exhaustion
When you wander in the sky
I was forgotten at freezing point
Just like the interlude sung by Zhang Nala in "The Princess of Diao Man", when everything returns to the original point, the moon is not round, the dream is not sweet, and even the happiness disappears.
Although this song describes love, it is very similar to Zhang Nala, whose career has returned to the original point.
"Whoever wears the crown will bear its weight, and if he wants to hold a rose, he will bear its wounds."
Stars standing in the spotlight, while accepting the aura given by the audience, must also be cautious about their words and deeds.
After all, the behavior of public figures affects many minors.
Today's Chinese entertainment industry is like Zheng Shuang, Wu Yifan and the like are endless.
They wear the crown created for them by fans and unleash their lusts unscrupulously.
As everyone knows, behind all excessive pleasure, there is an unpredictable abyss.
Once the evil deeds are exposed, the magnificent splendor of the past will disappear out of thin air, leaving only the impatience of falling off the altar.
