Star Inspirational Story: Han Geng's efforts


Han Geng's efforts

As a winner of one-thousandth of the HOTChina trials, Han Geng is fortunate. He embarked on a journey to Korea, but the first problem he faced was language. Friends and relatives who do not know each other know nothing about Korean, so learning Korean has become a compulsory course for him every day.

Han Geng said that at the beginning, he felt that the Korean language was quite simple. He also tried to use Chinese characters to mark the pronunciation. Under the guidance of the manager, it took only one to two weeks to communicate with the locals. But learning to learn, Han Geng found that Korean is not very good to learn, there are many rules. He recalled: "Korean has a saying of honor, a companion, and a conversation between friends who are close to each other, but I only started to talk about those companions, no matter who I am, such as the boss and company employees. In fact, the concept of Korea’s long and young honour is very strong. If you don’t have respect for the elders, it is easy to misunderstand. As a result, Han Geng’s Korean language once caused resentment among the company’s personnel. He felt that the Chinese kid was rude, but Han Geng did not stop and tried to learn.

Han Geng said that in addition to the necessary performing arts training, he averaged more than 10 hours a day to learn Korean. "At the time, I learned very seriously. Every day, just like learning English, I wrote it on a small piece of paper: Ania. Celluloid „„ My wall is covered with small paper strips, sleeping every day and watching and falling asleep.” With perseverance, Han Geng is now able to speak fluent Korean. But he is very modest and smiles: "If it is Korean, I can still hear that I am from a foreign country.

Practice dancing: fracture does not know for two months

With six years of dance training, Han Geng, a high school student in the dance department of the Central Nationalities College, has had a very good dance level before he entered Korea. But when he first came to Korea for training, his class was the lowest class C. In this regard, Han Geng did not have the slightest surprise: "This is for sure. I just started from the bottom of the grass. Of course, this is also related to Han Geng’s previous practice of dance. He said, "I am Learn the folk dance, but when you enter the company, you must dance the dance of Hithop and poping. The muscles need to move a little, the different dances, the position of the muscles are different, quite complicated." In this way, Han Geng who is in a foreign land Even the most popular dances must be practiced from scratch.

For dance practice, Han Geng admits that he never feels bored, and he likes to practice alone. When he was a trainer, his highest record was 20 hours of continuous dance. Is this the requirement of the manager company? Han Geng explained: "This is my own request, because there are already edited dances and songs before the debut. I have to practice. At that time, the agents were not there, only the choreographers. The teacher and us, so practice on their own, to prepare the most perfect and best performance." With solid basic skills, Han Geng rose from the lowest C class to the A class in just six months. He is proud to say: "At that time, there were only three people in Class A, I, East China Sea, and Enhe."

As a professional dancer, Han Geng, who is thin and has suffered a lot from long-term practice. Because of the excessive movement during the dance, Han Geng’s arm was broken. “I didn’t know which one was hurt at the time. Because I was very thin, I went to the gym. One day when I was doing the push, I felt my arm hurt, I was with the agent. Say, 'The arm is very painful, can you go to the hospital?' When I finished the film in the hospital, I realized that it was a fracture. I asked when it was broken. It should be two months ago, but the doctor said that the fracture has grown, but it is It’s long.” So, when Han Geng raises his hand, his arm will squeak and squeak, but fortunately, this has little effect on his performance.

Strong tolerance: forced to wear a mask to perform on stage

On November 6, 2005, Han Geng and 11 other Korean boys formed a large-scale combination for the Asian market and officially debuted! The moment of standing on the stage, excitement and joy are self-evident. However, the cruel facts poured a cold water on Han Geng when the excitement of his debut had not faded. South Korea has relevant regulations saying that as a foreign artist, only three TV stations can be signed, and other unsigned TV stations cannot show their faces. For an artist who has just debuted, everyone knows what exposure means.

Han Geng recalled: "At the time, the agent suddenly told me that I had to go to a foreigner's entrance and exit. When I got there, the staff at the entrance and exit asked me a lot of things, such as what performances I took, what advertisements I took, what I had. After the magazine? I felt that I had to pay a fine because there was no proper procedure and there was no visa for performing arts. Because I was the first artist from a foreign company at the time, the company did not know what kind of program it was. The company said at the time, 'You can’t perform in Korea after the end of today’. At that time, I immediately cried, and I said to myself, 'It’s just finished, I just blocked me, just I can't let me perform.' So the performance after that, I will be the last performance in Korea, I must do my best, let all Korean fans know that I have a Han Geng on the stage, give them a deep impression."

Later, Han Geng and the manager who did not give up wanted to come up with a compromise method of wearing a mask. "I talked with the agent, because if I was alone, I would be completely chaotic, I had to re-arrange, and I will perform next day. "So, on the scene of KM TV in South Korea, there was a boy with a black and silver mask on the stage of Super Junior.

Become strong: call the mother to cry for 10 minutes

There is bitterness and it is naturally lost. When Han Geng, who had not yet debuted at the time, was most confused, it was the time when the trainees returned to China each year. SM has a lot of trainees and fierce competition. Every day, new trainees join, old trainees leave, elimination and their own giving up are constantly being performed every day. After several renewals, the companions who arrived in Korea together left, and only one of them was left. The living expenses of less than 500 yuan in South Korea have prevented him from going through the streets in two years in South Korea, two points and one line, companies and dormitories.

Han Geng once thought about crying. When he first spent the Spring Festival in South Korea, he cried and cried for more than 10 minutes on the phone before finally saying: "Mom, Happy New Year." He also used difficulties. And before the frustration retreats, whenever he sees a companion who was replaced a few days before his debut, he wanted to give up. But he liked the stage and never gave up: "I haven’t envied it, I haven’t tried it, I just want to study hard and try to prove myself."

Happy in hardship

Although the journey of the Star Trail in South Korea is full of hardships and hardships, but Han Geng can survive the hard times of this hard time, in addition to the support of parents, I believe that the biggest pillar is the warmth brought by other Super Junior players and "Geng Rice".

Bathing competition

Speaking of the fun of Super Junior, Han Geng remembered the bathing competition. "We live in two dormitories, and the two dormitories are adjacent. In order to increase the sleeping time, we must shorten the bathing time, so that in the combination, the bath is the fastest. The contest. 'The other 11 members who do not take a bath are the jury. The members who have showered are subject to the jury's evaluation: after the shower, the body should have the fragrance of the bath, and no bubbles are allowed on the body. The judges must smell one. In the first competition, the members began to wash in two minutes. Of course, other members did not believe it. Everyone let the original source take a shower, and other members stood outside the bathroom and listened. While calculating the time, the test results surprised everyone, because he only took 1 minute and 30 seconds to take a shower. But this record was later broken by another member "child prodigy", he actually took a shower in 22 seconds. And did not violate the rules of the game! Han Geng said: "So far, no one can break through the record of 'child prodigy'."

happy Birthday

On the 22nd birthday of Han Geng, other members of SJ mailed a videotape recording their respective affectionate wishes to Han Geng, who is in China. Among them, the group member Qiangren said: "Han Gengge's birthday, I hope everything goes well, don't get sick, separate from my parents, must be very lonely, this time go home with my parents for the Spring Festival, healthy and good to go back. Come back and join us. The other members of Super Junior work together to show you a better look." The friendship of the brothers is warm in Han Geng's heart. Hardcore winter powder

Although Han Geng struggled alone in the foreign countries, the "winter powder" of the motherland did not forget the exotic dancers because of the distance. When Han Geng was still a trainee, the blog became his only connection with the "winter powder" of his motherland. Every time he sees the kind greetings from the motherland on the blog, he will be moved. Without a personal computer, Han Geng can only go online at the company. Without Chinese input method, he uses Pinyin in English. On the day of Han Geng’s 22nd birthday, SJ’s domestic fan organization sent a notebook computer with Chinese input method to Han Geng’s hand through Korean students. On the day of receiving the gift, Han Geng left the message. The first sentence is: “Finally You can leave a message in Chinese! Thank you!"
