Tidbits of Silience
by Azuki-san in response to a thread regarding Golden Bell Awards
In her note published on 11/10, Park Un Ne mentioned a shooting scene of "Silence".
Park Un Ne: "We're bad-mouthed couple" (man and woman were the words she used)
The Korean star Park Un Ne mentioned how she be-friended Vic Chou, member of Taiwanese Super Idol Group F4, during the shooting of drama "Silence". The recently returned Park, who since July had been shooting the drama in China and Taiwan, revealed how she and Vic Chou relied on bad-mouthing each other to build a friendship.
When the director of "Silence" asked Vic to teach Park some phrases such as "thank you" and praises in Chinese, the mischievous Vic taught Park something totally different. When she said those phrases, thinking that she was giving a compliment during the shooting, the shooting crew broke out in laughs - instead of praises she said something like "What are you blabbering about?"
Park took an opportunity during a shooting scene to avenge herself. At one scene, she was supposed to hand over a note with some message of love to Vic. Instead, she handed a piece of paper with the number "18" written all over. When Vic saw the note he broke out in laughs and ended up NG'd multiple times. It turned out that Vic had once told Park that the number "38" in Chinese refers to someone who's "nosy and tipsy". Park then told Vic that there's a similar term in Korean but is symbolized by the number "18" instead. So this time Park called Vic "18" to fight back. Park and Vic, both shy actors, relied on ridiculing each other to build a friendship.
