在八日举行的新闻发布会上，金钟学导演说，他将尽量使《太王四神记》能在九月初和大家见面。

他说，“我们找到了我们的路线。我们改变的情节，并改写了脚本。拍摄将于六月中旬开始，《太王四神记》将于九月初和大家见面。”

他也说，“我从未制作过如此艰难的作品。”他同时承认，在结合奇幻和历史的过程中，走了一些弯路。

以下是记者会的问答。

问：为什么会推迟那么久？

答：如果这部电视剧仅仅是关于一个历史人物的剧集，早就可以结束了。我料想可能会有一些艰难，但是没有想到会这么艰难。在结合奇幻和历史的过程中，我们走了一些弯路。当我希望能抓住广开土大王的命运，我失去了幻想的风貌。我在这个故事中加入了太多的东西，而这些东西并没有很好的融合在一起。我可以继续将这个剧集继续制作成历史和奇幻的混和体，但当我思考我们最初的目标的时候，我感觉就象当头一棒。裴勇俊说，这个剧集是韩流最后的荣耀，如果这个剧集失败了，并非仅仅是勇俊和我的失败，同时也意味这韩流的失败。他还说，我们应该为观众提供一部完美的剧集，哪怕花再多的时间和精力，甚至是不眠不休。我同意他的观点。我的愿望不多，我只在想着我们最初的热望。

问：能给我们一个确切放映的时间吗？

答：我和NHK接触过了，但日期还没有定下来。我不能给你一个确定的时间。我们按新的情节脚本拍摄，并朝着一个新的目标前进。我们确定了新的路线，并将在六月中旬重新开始拍摄。太王四神记预备在九月中播放。敬请期待。当你们看到的时候，你们会明白我们所做的一切。

问：是在韩国播放前就进行海外播放吗？

答：基本上应该是先在韩国播放。事实上，必须准备字幕翻译，而是最重要的是，我认为先进行国内的播放是一个我们应该遵守的标准。

问：制作费大多用在什么地方了？

答：大部分用于拍摄场地的建设。看到剧集后你们就会知道了。

问：在播放之前，你们有计划公开计算机特效吗？

答：没有，我没有这样的计划。请静待播放时观赏。场景并非耸人听闻，但却是保密的。三月份拍摄的场景的CG效果前几天已经完成了。一些场景用时长达六到十二个月。等待并不好受。我也想过，如果我给CG设计团队施压，他们会早一点完成，但是我错了。

问：为什么停止拍摄？

答：不仅是CG的原因。有脚本、效果等多方面的因素。对于我们为什么在二十一世纪（用这种方式）唤醒广开土大王，我感到很苦恼，所以想停下来检验而不是悠然的继续。

问：团队合作方面如何？

答：我们经常交流信息。演员们有其它的日程安排，但基本上大家都对本剧非常自豪。他们经常为拍摄做出牺牲。我们都在努力完成一个好的作品。

问：你有没有看到MBC工会的声明？

答：是的，我看到了。我无话可说。对于延迟，我非常抱歉，并尽力去解决这个问题。

问：之前有剧集的片花吗？

答：有。我会在六月十四日为大家提供前四集。请等到剧集结束。金钟学，在听取了裴勇俊的意见后，重新规划了《太王四神记》的情节。

******

金钟学导演说，在听取了裴勇俊的意见后，他停止了拍摄。

八日下午两点，金导演在首尔的皇宫酒店举行了新闻发布会。他为剧集播放的推迟而道歉，他说，“当我和裴勇俊交流的时候，我意识到了一些事情。”

“裴勇俊问我，‘谁是广开土大王？在我们历史上的众多王者中，他为什么如此杰出？他是如何治理如此广大的疆域的？’”

“裴勇俊还说，‘如果这部剧集仅仅如此，是我们两个人的失败。我并不在意我个人的成败，但这可能是韩流的重大失败。我认为韩流不能就这样终结。’”

金钟学说，当裴勇俊提出这样的意见时，他好像受到了当头棒喝，他完全同意裴勇俊的意见。他甚至决定停下拍摄，重写剧本，这样不可避免的推迟了播放。金说，“我重新审视如何将奇幻和历史融合到一起。也许我希望展现的东西太多了。我将在九月初完成《太王四神记》的制作，并努力使之成为一步完美的剧集。”

新闻发布会是如此的火爆，如同国会听证会一样。金导不断向观众道歉。

二十四集的《太王四神记》已经完成16集。新的脚本在五月已经开始撰写，拍摄将于六月中旬开始。

TWSSG will be ready to broadcast in September, KJH says.

Yonhap News, Seoul 
Reporter: Kook Ki Heon 

Director Kim Jong Hak said that he will make TWSSG available till early September at a press meeting held on June 8th. 

Kim said, "We found our way. We changed the plot and working on the scenario. The shooting will start in mid-June, and TWSSG will be ready to broadcast by early September."
He also said, "I've never done such a difficult and hard project." He also admitted that there were some mistake in the process of combining fantasy and history.

Following is the Q&A of the press meeting.

Q: Why is it getting so late? 

A: It would have been already finished if the drama was only about a historical figure. I expected it to be hard, but didn't know it would be this hard. There was a mistake in combining fantasy and history. While I tried to catch the life of King Kwang-gaeto, I lost the aspect of fantasy. I put too many things in the story, and it didn't work well. I could keep making the drama like that by mixing history and fantasy, but I felt as if I was struck on my head when I thought of what our initial goal was. BYJ said that this drama was the last pride of Hallyu, and if this drama fails, it doesn't only mean the failure of YJ and me, but it could mean the failure of Hallyu. He also said that we should show the viewers a well-made drama no matter how much it will take, even working without sleeping for days. I agreed with him. I am not desiring more, I am just thinking of our initial aspiration. 

Q: Can you give us the accurate date that will be broadcasted? 

A: I made a contract with NHK, but the date is not settled. I cannot give you the date. We are working on the new scenario, and aiming at a new goal. As we made a decision on which way to go, we will re-start shooting in mid-June. TWSSG wil be prepared to broadcast by early Sepytember. Please wait for the drama. You will understand once you see it. 

Q: Will it be broadcasted abroad before it broadcasted in Korea? 

A: Basically, it should be broadcasted in Korea first. 
In reality, subtitle must be prepared, and most of all, I think domestic broadcasting is the norm that we should keep. 

Q: Where did you spend most of the production cost? 

A: Many of the part went to the studio set. You will know once you see the drama.

Q: Are you planning to show the computer graphics before the broadcast? 

A: No, I don't have such plan. Please wait and see. 
The scenes are not shocking, but it is confidential. The CG of the scene that was taken in March was finished several days ago. Some scene need six to twelve months. We are not good at waiting. I also thought that it could be made earlier if I press the CG team, but I was wrong. 

Q: Why did the shooting stop? 

A: It is not only because of CG. It is a combination of scenario, art, and so on. 
I agonized on why should we revive King Kwang-gaeto in 21st century, and decided to check things out rather than to go easy.

Q: How is the teamwork? 

A: We often exchange informations. The actors have other schedules, but basically they are proud of this drama. They often sacrifice for this drama. We are trying together to make good result. 

Q: Did you read the statement of the labor union of MBC? 

A: Yes, I did. I have nothing to reply. I am sorry for the delay, and will try to solve things out. 

Q: Is there any preview of the drama? 

A: Yes, there is. I will give the first four part before June 14th. Please wait till the drama ends.

KJH, realign the plot of TWSSG after hearing BYJ's advice

Director Kim JH said that he stopped shooting the drama after hearing BYJ's advice.
On 8th at 2 o'clock, Director Kim had a press meeting at Seoul Imperial Palace Hotel. He apologized for the delay, and started his word with "I realized something while I talked with BYJ." 

"BYJ asked me, 'who is King Kwang-gaeto? Why is he so outstanding among thousands of kings in our history? How could he rule such a large territory?'"
"BYJ also said, 'if this drama goes like this, it would be a failure to both of us. I don't care about the failure of myself, but it could be a major failure of Hallyu. I think Hallyu should not stop like this.'" 
Kim said that he felt as if he was struck on his head when BYJ advised, and fully agreed with BYJ. He eventually decided to stop shooting and rewrite the scenario, and the broadcast was postponed inevitably. 
Kim said, "I reconsidered on how should I combine history and fantasy. Maybe I tried to show too much. I will make TWSSG available by early September, and do my best to make good-quality drama."

The press meeting was so heated as if it were a Congressional hearing. Kim apologized to the viewers repeatedly.

Among 24 parts of TWSSG, shooting of 16 parts are finished. The new scenario is under work from May, and shooting will restart from mid-June.
