Peninsula: I'm the Top Streamer

Chapter 535 It's him again.

[Warning!! Cast Change for New Drama!! The lead role in the drama "Company Blind Date," originally slated for Ahn Hyo-seop, has been changed!!!]

[Lee Do-hyun makes a surprise appearance as the new male lead in an SBS Monday-Tuesday drama! He's suspected of replacing Ahn Hyo-seop!!!]

[Two actors fought tooth and nail for the role in the new drama, with Lee Do-hyun beating Ahn Hyo-seop to get the male lead!!!]

[Stealing a role? An actor who steals a role without going through the proper procedures?]

[Suspected role theft, changing roles without notice or explanation?!]

An Xiaoxie refused to suffer in silence, so he spent money to buy media outlets to release press releases, attempting to arouse public discussion and attention, expand the controversy, and smear Li Dao.

They even planned to escalate the issue and eventually drag Quan Xuanhe into it.

But as soon as the press release he bought was sent out, the other party reacted much faster than he had imagined.

[Kakao Production Company: The casting for the new drama was a decision made after careful consideration, taking into account the characters' appearances and the actors' current condition...]

[Producer: After initial discussions and negotiations with the production team, the male lead was ultimately selected.]

[SBS: The broadcaster did not interfere with the casting process; it was decided by the production company…]

[A staff member: The new actors' acting and styling should be better, right? The original male actor's face was so swollen from plastic surgery, how could he look like a male lead in a Melo drama...]

Larger-scale news coverage overshadowed the previous reports, and no one in the production crew, or even the television station, spoke up for Ahn Hyo-seop.

Furthermore, the press release explicitly mentioned Ahn Hyo-seop's plastic surgery.

It's not surprising that celebrities get plastic surgery. As long as they have regular checkups and maintenance and maintain a good appearance in front of the camera, they won't attract too much criticism.

The key issue is that Ahn Hyo-seop's surgery didn't go well, and the swelling on his face lingered for a long time. The swelling was very noticeable on camera, and it wasn't noticeable until the heavy makeup and filters of the TV series.

Now, Kwon Seonhyuk is working with Lee Do-hyun, and BH and Yuehua Entertainment are mobilizing their resources to release a flood of press releases. The so-called "role-grabbing" has vanished, and the focus of discussion is now on Ahn Hyo-seop's plastic surgery.

[That's true, my face always seems swollen when I watch TV dramas.]

[Is this a pig's head? Hahahaha.]

Looking at these old photos, I don't think she's alone at all. No wonder she seemed so stiff when she was acting.

Ahn Hyo-seop was at the peak of his popularity after starring in "Red Heavenly Secret," but before he could fully enjoy the benefits, discussions about his plastic surgery began to surface.

He still relies on his looks to make a living, so how could people who judge him by his appearance possibly have a good impression of him now that he's been called a pig's head?

It's highly insulting and extremely damaging; that's the raw, unvarnished nature of business warfare.

[Wouldn't it be distracting to see this face playing Melo?]

Honestly, it's understandable that they shouldn't be acting out workplace dating shows. These days, more and more people who aren't particularly handsome are playing handsome men, making ordinary people on screen look cool, which is really disgusting.

[The camera should be dominated by people like Kwon Heon-hyuk and Cha Eun-woo!]

[Ahn Hyo-seop, please stop playing Melo. His skin looks like it's going to explode when he laughs.]

Seeing the comments that were completely contrary to his expectations, Ahn Hyo-seop's eyes widened in anger, and he gritted his teeth until the veins on his forehead throbbed.

"Damn it, why?!"

The agent watched from the side, his lips twitching.

The people outside are all his men. No matter how you fight them, those fence-sitters outside won't stand by your side, even if they want to choose sides.

“I contacted another doctor at a hospital, who said that there is a new technology in the United States that can fix the problems on your face.”

South Korea's plastic surgery technology is among the world's best, but the most advanced technology is still found in Hollywood. Hollywood actresses' radiant appearance and renewed good condition are not due to their own efforts, but to the doctors.

"Get things done as quickly as possible, no matter how much it costs, don't waste time."

Ahn Hyo-seop's tone was stiff. After hearing his manager's words, his tone softened somewhat, but he still couldn't suppress his anger.

His face was already defenseless against Kwon Heon-hyuk, so now he could only rely on the doctor's technique.

……

"This is……"

After seeing the online discussion, Zhao Meiyan put down her phone and looked at Li Daoxian with a puzzled expression.

"What do you want to ask?"

Lee Do-hyun looked at Jo Mi-yeon, who had a confused expression, and seeing that she hadn't asked him anything, he naturally asked her in return.

"The character also has... the man's plastic surgery."

As Zhao Meiyan watched the news report change abruptly before the day was even over, a series of questions popped into her mind.

Standing on the sidelines, she couldn't see clearly the motives and logic behind these events.

"do not you know?"

Lee Do-hyun's eyes showed some surprise, but then he became relieved. He sorted out his thoughts and thought about how to say it in a way that would be more appropriate for her.

"He and Xuanhe don't get along."

"Uh... huh?"

Zhao Meiyan was stunned for a moment, suddenly realizing that the matter involved a lot more and that it was quite different from what she had imagined.

She only thought that Kwon Hyun-hyuk had introduced the role to Lee Do-hyun, but she didn't expect that there was a conflict between the two behind the scenes.

"He and Ahn Hyo-seop had a conflict from the very beginning regarding the casting for 'The Doctor 2'. Ahn Hyo-seop was also behind the airport incident involving Hyun Hyuk a couple of months ago, maliciously creating trouble behind the scenes. Didn't you know about this?"

Lee Do-hyun blurted it all out in one breath, and the excessive amount of information overloaded her brain, making her feel mentally exhausted and unable to think straight.

"what?"

Zhao Meiyan knew almost nothing about what was going on behind the scenes, and Quan Xuanhe had never told her anything about it. When they were dating, they never talked about these things, and it didn't involve any work or career-related matters.

"so…"

Zhao Meiyan looked thoughtful, scratched her head, and spoke hesitantly, stammering and unable to articulate her thoughts clearly.

"So you still don't understand the situation? You still haven't figured it out?"

"He is Xuanhe's enemy."

Lee Do-hyun sighed and explained it clearly in a concise manner.

"Ah, I know, I was just thinking about other things."

Seeing Lee Do-hyun's somewhat speechless expression, Zhao Meiyan felt a little embarrassed herself, gave an awkward laugh, and then stubbornly began to explain.

"it is good."

"Don't you know him well enough?"

Lee Do-hyun couldn't help but say something more, which made Zhao Meiyan's smile freeze for a moment. She then rolled her eyes at him, looking somewhat resentful.

"Arasso!"

Zhao Meiyan replied indignantly, then looked around again, trying to extract some more information from him.

"So now, Ahn Hyo-seop has lost, right?"

"What do you mean by losing? But his image has been greatly damaged. There are so many press releases and discussions. To be honest, it's not malicious slander, but the truth."

Lee Do-hyun was completely on Kwon Hyun-hyuk's side, and he was naturally happy to see Ahn Hyo-seop receiving so many negative comments online.

"So he did this?"

“The airport incident caused such a huge uproar for Xuanhe that his career almost came to a standstill and he even fell into trouble. What do you think?” Upon hearing Li Daoxian’s words, Zhao Meiyan fell into deep thought, and the expression on her face suddenly became somewhat hesitant.

When she heard Li Daoxian say this, her first thought was why she hadn't noticed the underlying entanglements and struggles, and had only offered superficial comfort to him.

It seems I didn't really understand his situation at the time...
"He deserves to die, he should get out of the entertainment industry immediately."

Zhao Meiyan muttered something under her breath, shifting her emotions to her hatred for An Xiaoxie.

"Oh, you're quite sharp-tongued."

Upon hearing this, Li Daoxian looked at her and teased her.

"ah!"

Zhao Meiyan was taken aback by his sarcastic remark, feeling both angry and helpless.

"Given the current climate, if he doesn't make any moves, he'll likely back down and be defeated."

Lee Do-hyun glanced at the comments online again and finally said this.

"I see...that's good."

Zhao Meiyan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with considerable satisfaction.

"Miyeon, you could actually spend a little more time learning more about it."

Seeing that she seemed a bit confused from beginning to end, Lee Do-hyun sincerely tried to persuade her.

After spending so much time together on set, he could tell that Zhao Meiyan wasn't a girl with any bad intentions; she was just a little... slow-witted sometimes?
He watched as Zhao Meiyan, clinging to Quan Xuanhe, failed to appreciate him. Even a fool would know that he was no longer the type to break up with someone so easily in a relationship.

"Arasso, I really do know."

Zhao Meiyan felt ashamed; she was really losing face. She stomped her foot in anger.

He said that as if he were a babo (a derogatory term for someone who is incompetent at being a girlfriend).

"Alright, alright, get ready for your final scene today. Goodbye after that."

Lee Do-hyun stopped there, waving his hand to let her go film her final scene.

Today was indeed Zhao Meiyan's last day of filming. With the series being filmed and broadcast simultaneously, it is now halfway through its run, and the filming process has reached its final stages.

The filming of the final scene was in full swing, but Zhao Meiyan kept this matter in mind. Her mind was full of thoughts, but in order to maintain her condition and finish filming the final scene, she temporarily sealed these thoughts in her heart, intending to think about them carefully when she got back.

Surrounded by several cameras and under the watchful eyes of dozens of people, Zhao Meiyan, dressed in the school uniform from the drama, with her long, straight black hair flowing down and a hairband pulling her bangs back, revealing her smooth, flawless forehead.

Zhao Meiyan was emotional, her delicate eyes were slightly red and swollen, and she was shrouded in a gloomy aura, looking lonely and broken.

She has indeed honed her acting skills in TV dramas, surpassing outsiders, and is undoubtedly a strong performer within the group.

"OK!"

"It's over! Thank you for your hard work, Miyeon! Congratulations on wrapping up filming!"

Zhao Meiyan was quite the character on set, bringing a lot of joy to the crew. She was a beautiful and down-to-earth girl, very lovable. After filming wrapped, everyone on set applauded and cheered for her, and a female staff member she knew came up to her and handed her a bouquet of flowers.

Zhao Meiyan was very touched by this little surprise, especially since it was her last time on set. She had been busy with this drama for half a year, putting in just as much effort and energy as anyone else.

Under such circumstances, she couldn't help but tear up, and with a pout, she shed a small pearl.

"Moya, I'm so touched."

Zhao Meiyan was deeply moved, her eyes welled up with tears, and she looked pitifully at the others, wrinkling her nose and unable to resist hugging the staff next to her for warmth.

After wrapping up filming in a warm atmosphere, Zhao Meiyan took several selfies, holding flowers in her hands. Although her eyes were red, her smile was exceptionally bright.

This drama left a lasting impression on her.

After packing up, changing her clothes, and waving goodbye to the crew, Zhao Meiyan immediately boarded a van and headed to her next destination.

A high-end restaurant with a great sense of design.

After finishing filming, Zhao Meiyan rushed over to see her good friend.

Chongqing Three Gorges.

The makeup on her face was done on set, and she didn't even have time to remove it. She just changed into her own clothes, but because the makeup was done on set, it was practically the same as a full face of makeup. She was exquisite, flawless, and beautifully eye-catching.

"Miyeon!"

Sana Minatozaki had been watching the doorway intentionally or unintentionally. When she saw Miyeon Cho, her eyes lit up, and she raised her hand and waved at her, her face beaming with a relaxed and lively smile.

Hearing the noise, Zhao Meiyan immediately turned her head and saw Minatozaki Sana as well. She then walked over to her excitedly.

To express her longing for her after not seeing her for so long, Minatozaki Sana stood up and gave her a big hug as she walked over, even asking for a kiss.

"It's great to see you again!"

After the two sat down, Sana Minatozaki looked at Miyeon Cho with sparkling eyes and an exceptionally warm smile that was sweet, playful, and alluring.

If she looked like that on any boy, she'd be absolutely captivating.

"Yes, it feels like it's been quite a while since we last met."

The last time we met was during that awkward scene in Jeju Island. Although it had little to do with Sana Minatozaki, I still felt a bit uncomfortable.

"I just finished filming, and the shoot is over."

Zhao Meiyan put down her bag, breathed a slight sigh of relief, smoothed her slightly messy hair, and relaxed.

"Really? No wonder you look so beautiful. I thought Miyeon had put on a really pretty makeup for me."

Sana Minatozaki nodded, looking at her with a smile, her words almost teasing, it was hard to tell if she was jealous or something.

"Ani, I was planning to redo my makeup, but I feel like I don't have enough time."

"Ok."

Sana Minatozaki was a little jealous, but expressed her complete understanding.

"By the way, did you see what happened online today?"

"whats the matter?"

"It's about the roles played by Lee Do-hyun and Ahn Hyo-seop."

"Really? I haven't been paying much attention."

This matter isn't a huge controversy, but it's not insignificant either. Those who follow this kind of news will know about it, while those who don't won't.

"What's wrong? What does it matter?"

Sana Minatozaki was a little confused as to why she suddenly brought this up, and waited for her to continue.

"Actually, it has nothing to do with me."

"but…"

"But it has something to do with Xuanhe..."

Zhao Meiyan spoke somewhat hesitantly, but in front of Minatozaki Sana, she finally spoke.

"what?"

Is it him again?
Sana Minatozaki felt somewhat helpless.

Why is it Kwon Hyun-hyuk again?
