[News] Syuting Film "You're My Pet" Ditunda? - [News] “You’re my Pet” actors send consolations to victims of earthquake – Movie filming may be delayed

Diberitakan suratkabar Jepang Yomiuri Shimbun, film versi Korea dari “You’re my Pet” dijadwalkan akan memulai syuting di bulan Mei 2011. Aktor pemeran utama (Jang Geun Suk, Kim Ha-neul, FT Island leader Choi Jong Hoon) dan sutradara film ini menghibur dan memberikan semangat untuk korban bencana alam di Ibaraki Prefecture Jepang melalui perusahaan film mereka. 

Syuting film “You’re my Pet” -versi Korea dari manga Jepang, telah mendapat dukungan dari pejabat daerah dan perusahaan di Ibaraki dan konferensi pers skala besar telah diadakan di Ibaraki airport tanggal 3 Maret 2011 lalu untuk mengumumkan proses syuting yang akan dimulai bulan  Mei 2011. Dengan adanya bencana alam yang tak terduga, selain menyampaikan penghiburan dari para akor dan sutradara, perusahaan film tesebut menyatakan bahwa walaupun syuting sudah diputuskan untuk dilaksanakan sesuai jadwal semula, tapi tdak menutup kemungkinan akan terjadi perubahan jadwal nantinya.  Indonesian translation by http://naesukkie.blogspot.com

Berikut pesan-pesan dari para aktor

Jang Geun Suk: Saya ingin bisa menghibur korban gempabumi. Semakin cepat renovasi/pembangunan kembali, semakin baik. Saya berdoa agar pembangunan kembali bisa dimulai sesegera mungkin. Jangan menyerah dan kuatkan diri kalian.  Cheers, Japan!

Kim Ha-neul: Saya ikut bersedih seperti halnya kebanyakan orang dan bukan sebagai aktor. Saya merasa sangat sedih saat melihat berita tentang bencana alam yang terjadi. Mudah-mudahan setelah ini takkan ada lagi bencana sedahsyat ini.

Choi Jong Hoon: Saya baru saja pergi ke Ibaraki untuk menghadiri konferensi pers. Saya merasa sangat terkejut dan sedih waktu mendengar tentang bencana gempa bumi (yang melanda Jepang). Saya berharap daerah-daerah yang terkena dampak bencana akan segera membaik. Mudah-mudahan saya bisa segera melihat kembali senyuman dari orang-orang di Jepang. Cheers!

Satu hal yang bisa dicermati dari perkembangan pembuatan film “You’re my Pet”. Pertama-tama, Kim Hyung Joon memutuskan untuk melepaskan peran utama di film ini, yang kemudian diterima oleh Jang Geun Suk. Di akhir tahun lalu, Jang Geun Suk sudah memulai dietnya dan berlatih menari untuk karakternya sebagai penari ballet, tapi film ini kemudian ditunda karena pemeran utama wanita belum bisa dikonfirmasi. Awal tahun ini, aktris Kim Ha-neul telah dikonfirmasi menjadi pemeran utama wanita, tapi kemudian bencana gempabumi terjadi tak berapa lama setelah konferensi pers di Ibaraki. Media memberitakan kebocoran radiasi di Fukushima dan perusahaan film akan menghadapi kritikan jika mengubah lokasi syuting. Dalam dilema yang menghadang ini, kemungkinan penundaan syuting film ini sangatlah  tinggi. *so sad ...... T T* Indonesian translation by http://naesukkie.blogspot.com

According to Japanese news Yomiuri Shimbun, the Korean movie version of “You’re my Pet” was initially scheduled to start filming in May. Its main actors (Jang Keun Suk, Kim Ha-neul, FT Island leader Choi Jong Hoon) and director Kim Byung Gon expressed their consolations and encouragement through their movie company to the people of Ibaraki prefecture, one of the earthquake-hit areas in eastern Japan.
The filming of the movie “You’re my Pet”, the Korean version adapted from the best-selling Japanese manga, had gained much support from state officials and enterprises in Ibaraki, an area known for its agriculture, and a big-scale press conference was held at Ibaraki airport on 3 March to announce the start of filming in Ibaraki in May. In the face of the unexpected natural disaster, besides conveying consolations from the actors and director, the movie company expressed that although the filming is currently scheduled to proceed as originally planned, there remains a possibility of change.
Below are the consolation messages from the actors.
Jang Keun Suk: Expressing my consolations to the victims of the earthquake. The earlier the re-building starts, the better. Praying that re-building in the disaster-hit areas will start as soon as possible. Please show your courage and vitality. Cheers, Japan!
Kim Ha-neul: Conveying my sadness and consolation as an ordinary person and not as an actor. My feelings sank when I saw reports on the disaster-hit areas. Praying that the aftermath of the disaster will not get more serious than it now is.
Choi Jong Hoon: Just went to Ibaraki recently to attend the movie’s press conference. Was very shocked and sad when I heard about the earthquake. Hope that the disaster-hit areas will become better soon. Hope to see the smiles back on the faces of the Japanese people. Cheers!
A point worth mentioning is the rocky development of the filming of “You’re my Pet”. First, Kim Hyung Joon quit the role of the male lead, which was then accepted by Jang Keun Suk. Towards the end of last year, JKS had already started dieting and dance lessons in preparation for his role as a ballet dancer, but the movie filming was delayed once again because the female lead could not be confirmed. Early this year, actress Kim Ha-neul was confirmed as the female lead, but not long after the Ibaraki press conference, the earthquake hit. The media reported that the Fukushima radiation leakage situation is still unstable and the movie company may face criticism if it changes the filming location. In such a dilemma, the possibility of the filming being delayed is quite high.
