?Synopsis: Boyfriend from Outer Space?

PART 1. “Do you know who I am?”

Han Song-hee, currently the most popular star in Korea, is an actress. No, he’s not an actor, he’s a star. If you learn, you learn. Why are you a star? This is because he consistently shows such amazing acting that he cannot be called an actor. Nevertheless, from the time she debuted at age 19 to the age of 29, with the beauty and charm that she was born with, her popularity shows no signs of slowing down.

‘If I had acted that well, my acting skills would have been great… Even though I haven’t been able to act until now, it’s a talent.’ ‘Did you see what Han Song-hee posted on social media today? He said he ate iced hot chocolate haha. That’s really ignorant.’ ‘My friend is a manager, and I heard he’s ignorant and not rude?’ ‘My face isn’t as good as it used to be.’

It’s not just popularity that’s followed for ten years, but also malicious comments. It’s okay though. Han Song-hee laughs it off and says it’s because she’s jealous of everyone.

under. under. under.

Even when I laugh… Even when I laugh alone in the spacious and comfortable 100-pyeong luxurious villa I just moved into, tears suddenly come to my eyes. Han Song-hee cried so loudly that she had to leave home. I guess the reason I’m crying is because I want to take a tearful selfie, right? I wipe away my tears with the back of my hand.

Songhee’s family is busy spending the money she earned, and she has been so busy since she was 19 that she has no friends to contact at this time. Even if you date a lover, when you break up, they are just people who make a fuss about dating Han Song-hee.

Someone knocked on the glamorous but lonely life of Han Song-hee.

It’s the person next door.

PART 2. “What on earth are you?”

The man next door, who looks five years younger than Han Song-hee, speaks to Han Song-hee with a cold, emotionless face. It’s noisy. You can laugh or cry. Even though it’s next door, it’s 100 pyeong away, so I wonder if it makes sense that it’s noisy.

I thought he might be doing this on purpose to see me, so I tried to report him to the security office, but it turns out it was really the man next door.

So we fought. Well, how noisy was that? I poured out my sad and lonely anger on a man who came at the right time and didn’t even know if he was Han Song-hee, Baek Song-hee, or Man Song-hee, and didn’t seem to be a citizen of the Republic of Korea. What did I do so wrong? yes? Tell me! The face of the expressionless man next door was also crumpled in the face of Han Song-hee, who was growling with a point and suddenly crying, asking if she felt sorry for me.

Get rid of the guy next door like that? And I fell asleep in the cool.

The next day, when I went to the filming location of the newly contracted advertisement, the company’s manager was there. You’re the manager, why are you so young? No, that’s not the problem. Why does it look like something I’ve seen before somewhere? The man next door to whom Han Song-hee revealed the truth yesterday was on set.

Are you my stalker? What I wanted to ask was when we met in the underground parking lot of the broadcasting station. However, the man next door ignored Han Song-hee with a bewildered look and passed by. It was because I already knew from two experiences that the answer was not to get involved with Han Song-hee.

But at that moment, an unknown vehicle drove up and threatened Han Song-hee. That moment when it came so fast that I couldn’t avoid it and I thought I was going to die like this! Cheon Min-jun, the man next door who was walking far away, an advertiser and now a lifesaver, picked up Han Song-hee.

how? How did you get it? Is this something humans can do?

In her doubts, Han Song-hee sees Cheon Min-jun’s face. Cheon Min-jun doesn’t seem surprised, but Han Song-hee’s heart seems very surprised. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to run like this!

PART 3. “Humans on Earth call life forms like me aliens.”

Although he looks young and looks like he is about 25, he is already 32. People find Cheon Min-jun confusing and difficult. Although he looks young, when I talk to him, I feel a sense of innocence and frustration, as if I were talking to a person from the Gojoseon era.

Even to people who are much more mature than him, Cheon Min-jun sometimes annoys people by acting as if he is more of an adult. He is a character who has a habit of saying things that start with since ancient times.. which is ridiculous.

His actual age, not the age on paper, is 239 years old. Cheon Min-jun’s appearance has never changed. A hundred years ago or now, I went on a vacation on a spaceship from planet Xxw123 to planet Hqw215, but the spaceship crashed and I fell to Earth alone.

So he continues to forge documents and create new people. I continue to live from the age of twenty to about thirty-five. Until then, I insisted that I was young… but after that, I disappeared and went to live in another country and came back to live a new life…

I lived alone as an alien for 100 years, pretending to be an Earthling. Waiting for your planet to come closer once every hundred years in Earth time.

85 days before returning to his planet, Min-Jun Cheon could not sleep easily. This is because the sound of a woman’s laughter and cries echoed through his ears, which were twenty times more developed than those of an Earthling.

Meeting that woman, Han Song-hee, completely shook the alien Cheon Min-jun’s life!

.

Director Oh Baek-ho rubbed his eyes.

“alien?”

Director Oh Baek-ho said that the ‘alien world’ mentioned in the title, which he thought was merely symbolic, was actually an alien world outside of Earth.

KK’s 3rd full-length album promotions were coming to an end. After the regular album activities were over, each member was scheduled to pursue individual activities again.

In Do-wook’s case, since he had not had any work since ‘Blue Whale’, he was planning to start his acting career in a hurry.

In fact, a lot of casting calls for various dramas were coming in. There were more than one work that had to be turned down due to schedule, including a role as a child of the male lead in a 50-episode special drama and a supporting role in an incredibly popular mini-series that recorded a viewership rating of 27%.

These were all roles that Do-wook would have liked to have played, so both Director Baek-ho Oh and the company expressed regret. However, Do-wook’s position that he would not engage in acting activities during his activities did not change because KK’s activities took priority.

The company had no intention of pushing Do-wook too hard and knew that Do-wook wanted to focus on one task and do his best, so they declined all of those roles.

As a result, the 3rd full-length album achieved great results, so there were no regrets about missing a few works.

Moreover, after the success of ‘Continue’, even blockbuster film production companies were sending scripts. There were almost no supporting roles and much more leading roles.

However, Do-wook expressed his thoughts that he still wants to do dramas rather than movies. It was true that the drama leads were a little younger than the movie leads, and Do-wook’s idea of wanting to play roles that could be played at that age certainly felt right.

So, when the regular album was nearing completion, Hit Entertainment once again asked for help from Kang-yeon Lee, who was Do-wook’s acting teacher for college entrance exams.

Even famous actors often hired acting teachers because they needed to continue to improve. Not only did I receive acting guidance, but I also received help as a mental mentor.

Do-wook had already learned a lot through his college years and had solidified his fundamentals, and his acting skills were incomparable to most of his fellow actors, but he was not at the level of perfection as an actor.

The company’s opinion was that a lot of effort and help was needed from selecting a project to taking on a character and acting. Another problem was that there was no separate system for training actors within the company.

Anyone can see that Do-wook is a talented actor who will do well as an actor. It was unreasonable to trust Do-wook’s individual abilities among non-experts.

In order to push and pull, I had to get help from outside people.

It was an order from Manager Joanie, who was in charge of operational planning. Manager Joanie was envisioning a bigger future starting with Do-wook.

Idols were having a great influence not only on entertainment shows but also on dramas. In order to expand the scope of activities of its singers, Hit Entertainment also had to be able to develop its entertainers as actors at the company level.

We cannot wait for an outstanding individual like Do-wook to appear. Therefore, first of all, Do-wook had to do his best to solidify his position as an actor. Manager Joanie’s idea was that only then would she have the know-how to develop it next time and the next.

So the first method chosen was to hire Lee Kang-yeon again as a dedicated acting instructor. I decided to pay a larger amount than I would have received for help in postponing my entrance exam.

He was a minister who took care of Do-wook from the moment of choosing the work.

Teacher Kang-yeon Lee was not someone who could be swayed by the amount of money in the case of a long-term contract because he had already taken care of quite a few actors. However, it was teacher Lee Kang-yeon who recognized from the beginning that Do-wook was a talented person. She immediately accepted Hit Entertainment’s offer.

After that, Kang-yeon Lee personally reviewed some of the scripts that came to Hit Entertainment. Do-wook, who was busy with his schedule, contacted him on his cell phone and discussed together what kind of work he would be working on.

There were a couple of dramas that were being discussed like that, and talks were going back and forth with the production team about conditions, etc.

At that time, the production company, which was quick to hear that Kang Yeon was taking care of Do-wook, sent the script directly to Kang Yeon Lee, not Hit Entertainment.

After reviewing the synopsis and script, Lee Kang-yeon sent them back to Director Oh Baek-ho. That was ‘The Boyfriend from Extraterrestrial’.

Director Baekho Oh was reading PART 1 and PART 2 with interest.

I don’t enjoy watching dramas, but as someone who works in the entertainment industry, I was aware of the big trends. While I thought it would be fun, Part 3 robbed Director Oh Baek-ho of his spirit.

After the review, it was decided to contact Professor Lee Kang-yeon, so Director Oh Baek-ho tried to shake off his nervousness and called Professor Lee Kang-yeon.

-Yes, hello? Oh, Chief?

Teacher Lee Kang-yeon was a person whose voice always sounded pleasant.

‘As expected, the person teaching acting seems to be different.’

Thinking about it, Director Oh Baek-ho got to the point.

“Yes, teacher. I read the synopsis you sent. You mean aliens? This is it. These days, it seems like everything is turned into a drama. “I can’t laugh at this.”

-Oh, I guess that’s what you said. I was a little confused at first too.

“haha. “I guess I’m old now.”

It meant that I couldn’t understand it at all. Teacher Lee Kang-yeon spoke in an understanding tone.

“Aliens… I also thought it was a bit of a difficult topic. However, if you read the character introduction, you will see that I really like the role of the male protagonist.”

“is that so? Hehehe……”

Director Oh Baek-ho smiled kindly. Teacher Kang-yeon Lee was not someone who could mess with Director Baek-ho Oh. Since he is not from within the company, he is neither a subordinate nor a superior.

It was true that he helped me a lot during the entrance exam to Korea National University of Arts, and even though he was still one of the leading acting instructors in Korea, I had doubts about whether I could really entrust Lee Kang-yeon with choosing Do-wook’s work.

“yes. Also… since he’s an alien, he also has super powers. There’s a lot of money. “He is a very capable male protagonist and has to leave for outer space soon, so he has a lot to lose in the emotional aspect.”

“Ah…”

Teacher Lee Kang-yeon said to Director Oh Baek-ho’s lukewarm response.

“But the material is probably the same, right? I also really like the character, but I was put off by the subject matter.”

“Yes… thank you for knowing.”

“Then, Mr. Do-wook, we decided to join the role of ‘Snow White’s Sister’, which we had originally discussed… I will have to show this work to the other actor I am in charge of.”

Teacher Kang-yeon Lee said, thinking of a male actor who is one year older than Do-wook.

Director Oh Baek-ho replied that he understood, and only then did he reply in a relaxed voice.

“Yes, I understand that.”

“Do-wook, you’re busy these days, right?”

“Yes, today is the last broadcast, so now I can take a breather. “Then do you mind if I don’t show Do-wook this scenario separately?”

“Director, do whatever suits you.”

“yes. Thank you for always caring about our Do-wook. “I will contact you again once the ‘Snow White Sister’ contract is concluded.”

Just like that, Director Oh Baek-ho hung up the phone with Professor Lee Kang-yeon.
