Peninsula: I'm the Top Streamer

Chapter 573 Knowing How to Do It

Huang Xuanchen put down his phone with an embarrassed expression.

"Damn it..."

Ever since the last MAMA, I've felt something's been off.

He felt that he and Liu Zhimin were getting along well and that winning her over wouldn't be too difficult, but he never expected to run into obstacles repeatedly afterward.

"What? She doesn't want to talk to you?"

"Hey, what are you comparing yourself to Quan Xuanhe for? Don't think about those things."

Xu Zhangbin came over and took a look, immediately understanding what was going on, and began to laugh at him.

"What relationship do you have with Quan Xuanhe? Stop talking nonsense."

Huang Xuanchen's expression turned even uglier. He looked up and retorted, but a deep sense of defeat filled his heart.

"Who said Kwon Seonhyuk was pursuing her?"

"You can ask them if you don't believe me."

Xu Zhangbin chuckled and said casually.

Upon hearing this, Huang Xuanchen, who was not a coward, knew that since Liu Zhimin had said so, there was probably no chance of anything going to happen. He immediately picked up his phone and started sending messages.

"Excuse me."

"I have one last question. If you can answer it, I won't bother you anymore."

Liu Zhimin looked at the two more messages that popped up, let out a heavy sigh, and her eyes showed obvious impatience.

The fact that he had read the message prompted Hwang Hyun-jin to ask directly.

"Are you and Quan Xuanhe having an ambiguous relationship?"

"?"

Seeing this, Liu Zhimin decided to go all in and sent the following five words without thinking.

"He's my boyfriend."

Huang Xuanchen froze, put his phone down, and immediately started cursing, "That damn bitch..."

"She's dating Kwon Hyun-hyuk!"

As soon as he said that, everyone else heard it, and they all looked up at Hwang Hyun-jin.

The waiting room was crowded with people, including members and many staff members.

"Nug? Yoo Ji-min?"

Xu Zhangbin asked.

Huang Xuanchen remained silent, irritated, and simply nodded.

"Hey, then don't keep talking about it, what's the point of this!"

Through their conversation, the staff overheard the news.

This was considered a rumor, and it began to circulate slowly.

Seeing that he had indeed stopped bothering her, Liu Zhimin felt less annoyed. She casually plugged her phone into the charger, buried her head in the blanket, hummed a couple of times, and prepared to fall asleep.

In her dream, she saw herself and Quan Xuanhe flying together, a perfect couple.

[Starnews Year-End Summary] Shining Rising Stars of 2021 ★
Kwon Heonhyuk: Skipping the "rising star" stage, he directly ascended to the "top actor" stage, sweeping across the world with his momentum in the Korean Wave!

Han So-hee: Romance dramas → Action scenes, a face that transcends limitations.

Jung Ho-yeon: She rose to fame with her debut work.

Koo Gyo-hwan: A radiance emanating from experience and strength.

Korean dramas that made it into Netflix's top 10 most-watched TV series in December (English-speaking and non-English-speaking regions).

7. Squid Game: 7000 million hours

8. "Love" 6400 million hours

Among the actors Kwon Heon-hyuk has worked with, not only have the actresses seen a significant rise in popularity, but even the male actors he has worked with have continued to climb the career ladder.

Kim Ro-woon, who co-starred with Idol Producer, starred in the hit historical drama "Love and Longing," while Koo Kyo-hwan, who co-starred with DP, has now entered the film industry and is receiving numerous film offers.

The news that Kwon Heon-hyuk had started filming in the "20th Century Girl" drama spread quickly and was reported by some media. After the news of the start of filming was released, apart from fans and professional film fans who paid attention, not many people knew about it.

Industry professionals also have very clear expectations for this work.

This is Kwon Heonhyuk's first leading role in a film, and following the safe route of the Korean Wave is unlikely to lead to any mistakes.

As for further professional requirements?
Kwon Heon-hyuk then arrived at another film set in his van.

Night Owl

With both productions starting simultaneously, this poses a significant challenge for Quan Xuanhe. He might be playing a young college student in the morning and a blind acupuncturist in the afternoon.

The range of roles is not just large, it's a complete 180-degree rotation.

No one outside knows, but those around him are quite worried about him running back and forth between the two places.
South Korea has many filming locations for period dramas. In addition to famous locations such as Gyeongbokgung Palace and Deoksugung Palace, there are also specially built filming bases, which are similar in function to Hengdian World Studios in China.

Yongin Dae Jang Geum Film Studio, developed by MBC, covers an area of ​​approximately 826 million square meters and features architectural complexes from the Silla and Joseon periods, as well as a street market reflecting the customs and traditions of that era. As its name suggests, it served as the filming location for numerous popular Korean historical dramas, including "Dae Jang Geum."

Danyang Ondal Studios, located in the mountains of Danyang, North Chungcheong Province, is a popular filming location for Korean historical dramas.

Shaanxi-Sichuan Film Theme Park is the largest film and television base in South Korea.

Fortunately, both production crews are located in Gyeonggi Province, so they won't be traveling too far south.

After Quan Xuanhe arrived at the film set, he went over to greet everyone one by one.

The cast of Night Owl is different from Twentieth Century Girl. The actors here are all seasoned veterans with extensive experience. It's hard to say how much influence they have, but it's still best to be careful when dealing with these seniors.

It belongs to the proper Chungmuro ​​film industry, not the area where newbies hang out; it's all made by people who have been making films for many years.

"Xuan He is here."

Kwon Hyun-hyuk was also listed as a producer in this production team. After all, the investor of this film was BH, and in order to show the importance attached to him and to satisfy Kwon Hyun-hyuk's personal request, he was listed as a producer.

The producer's fee was nominally calculated at one Korean won, and Kwon Hyun-hyuk had no intention of taking another share of the producer's money; it was a drop in the ocean for him.

Quan Xuanhe greeted the director and producer with a smile, and changed into the crew's special costume following the procedure he had gone through a few days ago.

Then, the opening ceremony was held amidst a large crowd of people.

Filming for "Night Owl" has officially begun.

Even now, they haven't really talked about what kind of character the male lead he played is.

He plays Cheon Kyung-soo, a special blind acupuncturist who suffers from day blindness. He cannot see anything in the light during the day, and his vision only improves at night.

Born into poverty, he raised his younger brother, who suffered from heart disease, on his own. To improve his life, he entered the palace as a royal physician thanks to his superb acupuncture skills.

In the palace, Chun Kyung-soo unexpectedly discovers his secret of being able to see at night, which Crown Prince Sohyeon discovers, earning the prince's understanding and trust. However, he then witnesses the horrific scene of the crown prince being poisoned by the royal physicians.

Afterwards, Kyung-soo began a solitary struggle to uncover the truth. In the treacherous court environment, he had to evade assassination attempts while diligently searching for evidence to bring the truth to light. Despite encountering numerous setbacks and even being manipulated by senior officials, he remained steadfast in his commitment to justice and ultimately succeeded in avenging the Crown Prince.

Therefore, it is clear that this is undoubtedly a male-centric drama with highlights and a well-developed character. If the actor performs well, he will undoubtedly shine, otherwise Ryu Jun-yeol would not have won the Baeksang Arts Awards Best Actor award.

After a brief visit to both sides, Quan Xuanhe officially began his busy life of shuttling between the two places.

On the other side, Zhao Meiyan waved goodbye to them after the rehearsal ended.

"Goodbye~"

Goodbye, Reiji!

Goodbye, Yuan Ying~

Goodbye, Minju~

"Goodbye, Yujin~" At the year-end MBC Song Festival, the company pulled her out to perform a collaboration stage with other girl groups, which was one of her few appearances on the year-end stage.

In addition, there's the weekly music show performance where he's a regular MC.

Actually, the drama she starred in, "Melancholia," only aired in mid-November and hasn't finished airing yet. The finale was only released on the last day of the year. She can be considered someone who benefits from the drama's popularity!

The popularity is higher than originally expected, because the exposure has also increased.

She felt a lot of pressure working with the most popular members of these new girl groups, but it also indirectly proved that she was also a top member in terms of popularity, which felt pretty good.

Goodbye, unnie~

Huang Lizhi is a nice girl. Upon hearing this, she immediately looked up and waved to Zhao Meiyan with a big smile.

Zhang Yuanying waved gently, her smile faint, not particularly enthusiastic, but mostly polite.

After saying goodbye to these people, Zhao Meiyan put on a mask, hunched her neck against the cold wind, and wrapped herself up tightly. Then she hailed a taxi and went to a restaurant.

She's going to meet Sana again!
Since she couldn't go to the concert the other day, she suggested that they arrange a meal together, taking advantage of the rare opportunity for them to meet and have a good chat.

“Sana~”

After entering the restaurant, Zhao Meiyan looked around and found Minatozaki Sana. Then, her eyes lit up, she locked onto the person, and quickened her pace to walk over. Her shout reached Minatozaki Sana's ears even faster than her footsteps.

Sana Minatozaki looked up at Miyeon Cho, who was walking towards her with small, quick steps, and flashed a big smile. "Miyeon~"

"Phew, it feels like it's been ages."

Zhao Meiyan plopped down, put her bag aside, and took off her coat and mask to reveal her true face. The restaurant was warm.

Two stunningly beautiful women.

There were other diners in the restaurant, and since the two were quite well-known, they were naturally recognized.

It's not like they're out having dinner with a man and need to be secretive. They're much more open and honest at this time, sitting here without any fear.

"How was the collaboration stage?"

Sana Minatozaki knew that she had a collaboration stage with the current girl group contestants, so she asked her with a bright and cheerful smile.

"It's alright. Anyway, I don't have anything else going on at the end of the year, so I don't feel busy."

Zhao Meiyan's self-deprecating words made Minatozaki Sana chuckle twice. "This is good too, it helps me concentrate."

"But you'll be soloing next year, so don't be so self-pitying. No one among us has soloed yet, you're way ahead of us."

Sana Minatozaki knows how to comfort people; she brings up good things about them.

"This is something."

It worked very well, making Zhao Meiyan's smile even brighter.

"I'm really sorry I couldn't go to the concert. I really wanted to go, but as you know, I couldn't."

Upon hearing this, Sana Minato shook her head, "There's no need to apologize. I know what's going on."

She knew it all too well.

"That's good."

Zhao Meiyan smiled brightly.

"I remember you came back the week before last. What have you been doing since you got back?"

she asked with a smile.

"Actually, I didn't do anything. I just went out and had some fun for a few days."

Sana Minatosaki spoke vaguely, not daring to be too clear about her words.

You can't exactly say that I went skiing with your man and ended up sleeping together, can you?
How can this be done?

"The snow was very heavy the week before last; it was the first snowfall of the season."

When Zhao Meiyan started talking with great interest, she couldn't stop, her little mouth chattering away non-stop.

"The snow was falling so, so heavily."

"Yes."

Sana Minatozaki smiled and responded, but someone who knew the inside story might have noticed the slight unease hidden behind her smile.

"I was actually thinking of asking you to go skiing together. Didn't you say you wanted to ski before?"

If nothing unusual happened, Minatozaki Sana would definitely have accepted that line, but she couldn't; it would be dangerous to just say anything carelessly.

"Are you free later? How about we go skiing together?"

Zhao Meiyan acts on a whim, and still displays an innocent and enthusiastic demeanor.

"Skiing, that sounds great!"

Sana Minatozaki suddenly realized, and then chimed in with some meaningless words.

"right!"

Zhao Meiyan stared intently at her, her eyes sparkling, brimming with emotion.

"But I might not be available later..."

This forced Sana Minatozaki to interrupt Miyeon Cho's enthusiasm, otherwise the conversation felt like it was about to get out of control.

"Okay, that makes sense. You're going on tour, so you probably won't have much free time."

Zhao Meiyan said with a hint of regret.

Then, she turned her head and looked around, then lowered her voice and said, "By the way, could you tell me if there was anything unusual when you were having dinner that day?"

Sure enough, I knew it.

Sana Minato was speechless. She was neither surprised nor surprised by Miyeon Cho's question.

She's practically sandwiched between layers now.

Attacked from both sides, contradictory from both front and back.

"No, it's normal."

Sana Minatozaki shook her head, not telling Tzuyu about Chou's changes to Miyeon Cho, as that would only make the situation worse.

"There's nothing strange about her, is there?"

Zhao Meiyan asked hesitantly.

"em..."

"I guess so. I didn't really pay attention, so I don't think so."

"But Meiyan shouldn't worry about these things. Let's solve the immediate problem first. What about your cooling-off period? What do you mean by that?"

Sana Minatozaki picked up her wine glass and took a small sip of mulled wine. Instead of asking Miyeon about her, she tried to find out what Miyeon was thinking.

"I'd like to find a suitable time to meet with Xuanhe."

Zhao Meiyan's face immediately fell into thought, and finally she bit her lip, as if she had made up her mind.

After such a long time, just meeting once can solve many problems.

"Have you thought about it?"

"What are you going to do?"

Upon hearing this, Sana Minatozaki's alarm bells rang in her mind, which manifested on the surface as her slightly leaning forward and her gaze becoming focused and intense.

"Ok!"

"I think I know what to do... right?"

Zhao Meiyan looked at Minatozaki Sana with a questioning look in her eyes and nodded affirmatively, as if a sense of confidence had arisen with these words.
