We will eventually grow old… Let’s always remember that hot smile [Joo Cheol-hwan’s Music Neighborhood]

“How are you still the same as before?” “You are the same.” These are ‘lies’ that grandmothers exchange at class reunions. A part-time student listening over his shoulder smiles. “Was presbyopia popular in the old days?” The customer sitting next to me secretly helps. “We might have been jealous of each other back then. “It’s great to see people exchanging well-wishes after they get older.”

Even beautiful women become old people. This is fairness and common sense in the entertainment industry. Hwang Shin-hye, once called ‘computer beauty’, celebrated her 60th birthday this year. She was a publicly recruited talent for MBC’s 16th season (1983), so it has been 40 years since her debut. This explanation appears on Namu Wiki. “If you ask who the actress who represents the 1980s is, many names will come up, but if you ask who the beautiful woman who represents the 1980s is, Hwang Shin-hye will most likely be chosen.”

I once went to his house to invite a beautiful woman of the time. She is the PD’s best friend. When a star is having a hard time, the PD has something to say to himself. “You too will grow old.” Actually, that word is not a curse, it is science. ‘Who can catch the passing time? Can anyone stop the flowing stream?’ (Seo Yoo-seok’s ‘The Passing Time’). Hwang Shin-hye appears more often in entertainment shows than dramas these days. Looking at her title, you can feel her maternal love and the diligence of her years. ‘What’s wrong with mom’ (TV Chosun), ‘Mom was pretty’ (MBN). Her newborn daughter (Jini Lee) grew up to be a model and actress. She is also a painter who held an invitational exhibition, and the titles of the exhibition leave a strange impression. ‘Once upon a time: We were all children once’ In the interview ‘Are you happy’, her daughter also said this. “My mom supports me in whatever I do and gives me great strength.” These are autumn virtues that must be memorized.

I once directed a program called ‘TV Youth Cabinet’ (1994). It is a type of performance entertainment that depicts the process of college students creating a tentatively named ‘Land of Hope’. Some of the first and second year college students (intern PDs) who appeared at that time had already become parents of college students. I am still their cheerleader. Recently, I met the mother and son separately. First I met the mother (Kwon Bo-yeon), and a few days later I met the son (Kim Jae-won). After telling me about many examples that fill my life’s schedule, I asked what my next schedule was, and I said that I was going to the school gym to practice for the cheerleading match on the weekend. With that one word, the barrier collapsed and my heart warmed as the remnants of my youth suddenly rushed in like a tsunami. “Please film a short cheering video and send it to me.” It wasn’t until close to midnight that the video I ordered arrived along with a short message. “Sorry for the late hour. I’m sending you the cheering video I mentioned. What’s more exciting is that I couldn’t film it because I had to do it myself. Have a good night.”

The cheering shouts and movements that were so exciting that I didn’t even have time to take pictures accompanied the sleepless night. ‘When the memories I had to forget in those years come back to me, I close my eyes and call that name silently. I know I will never see your beautiful face again.’ I am familiar with it as Lee Moon-se’s song, but Jaewon (new student) knows it as Big Bang’s song ‘Red Sunset’. When recording this song, Lee Moon-se was in his late 20s.

This post was posted on Hwang Shin-hye’s social media. “It seems like fall has arrived, but it’s still very hot.” When I turn on the radio, a song like the harbinger of the season plays. ‘When fall comes, your smile reflected in the dazzling morning sunlight is beautiful’ (Lee Moon-se’s ‘When Autumn Comes’). But I expect this song to come out by the end of fall. ‘When the autumn leaves are scattered and blown away by the cold wind, golden waves once again appear on the campus lawn (omitted). The days, the days, the days that cannot stay’ (Song Chang-sik’s ‘As the Days Go by’).

If one day is a year, the red sunset corresponds to fall. Spring was warm and summer was hot. I need to meet up with old friends again. Coincidentally, Hwang Shin-hye’s film debut was ‘Our Happy Young Days’ (directed by Bae Chang-ho, 1987). Just talking about her movies makes time seem to pass quickly.
