Peninsula: The Best Actor Begins with a Breakup

Chapter 223 is finished.

"What are you looking at me for?"

After Mingyan hung up the video call with Lim Nayeon, Kim Jisoo kept staring at him.

"Nayeon gave me a camera~" If it were someone else, asking for a birthday gift directly would seem very rude, but there is no such concern between childhood sweethearts.

Kim Ji-soo always says what she wants directly.

She is not lonely at all, and she thinks of Lim Nayeon no matter what she does.

When she was in school, if Kim Ji-soo liked something, she would often buy three copies, one for each student.

So, this guy's pocket money is often not enough, so he spends Mingyan's. However, that person doesn't have much money at that time, so the two of them use Lin Nayeon together.

There is definitely no way to settle this mess.

"I bought a pair of shoes, but I didn't bring them today." Ming Yan glanced at Jin Zhixiu's right foot and said, "Please wear them when you practice dancing, so you don't get sprained and cry."

No matter how beautiful a girl becomes when she grows up, she still looks the same when she cries as when she was a child.

"Who's crying?"

"I have a recording..."

"Hey, why are you recording this?"

"It's better to be prepared, so that you won't turn against me."

……

Mid-January.

After celebrating Kim Min-young and Kim Ji-soo's birthdays, Mingyan devoted his energy to the filming of "The King" again.

Choi Doo-il doesn't have many scenes left. Apart from some shots that need to be re-shot, the rest are just minor scenes.

"Lights, get ready, what I want in a moment is a resolute back..."

Han Zairin directed other staff members on the scene.

Mingyan was in a very relaxed mood. After he finished shooting today's scenes, he would be done with the rest of the actors' scenes and post-production.

According to the established process, "The King" will probably be released in the second half of this year, and I will have to cooperate in some promotional work at that time.

In short, he can rest for a while.

Since 2016, Ming Yan has not had much free time. In two years, he filmed three TV series and a movie. Although he is only the leading actor in one of them, he can definitely be called a model worker.

Compared with Kim Ji-won, that sister may not even be able to act in one drama a year.

"Xiaoyan, get ready." Han Zailin shouted, waving the script in his hand.

"Ok."

Mingyan said that today's role was very simple.

He just had to run towards the crowd against the light. Choi Doo-il's rush into the crowd also represented the end.

"One, two, three, go."

Mingyan gathered all his strength and strode towards the crowd.

Han Zailin nodded with satisfaction: "Cut."

There was a burst of applause at the scene. Although Mingyan was young, he was sweet-spoken and capable. A few months was enough for him to take care of the relationships with people at all levels.

He can say a few words to everyone from the director and leading actors to the staff who deliver lunch boxes.

"Thank you everyone." Ming Yan turned around and bowed.

"Maknae, thank you for your hard work."

Zhao In-seong got a bouquet of flowers from somewhere and stuffed it into Mingyan's hand.

Mingyan held the flowers and hugged Cha In-seong, Jung Woo-sung, and Bae Sung-woo. These older brothers were very caring towards him. Jung Woo-sung even thought of calling him to eat the fruit plate.

It’s all about connections from now on.

"Director-nim, thank you for taking care of me for so long." Ming Yan finally came to Han Zai Lin. A famous director is a famous director. He has indeed learned a lot from Han Zai Lin.

"Boy, I hope we can have the opportunity to work together again." Han Zairin patted Mingyan's shoulder heavily: "There are not many young people as outstanding as you."

"Director Nim, if you say that, I'll be so proud."

"Haha."

Mingyan also took a group photo with other staff members. The next time they meet may be at the wrap-up party of the "King" crew.

After he got on the nanny car, he stared blankly at the scenery outside the window. After the filming is over, the actor must get out of the character as soon as possible to avoid affecting reality.

Cui Dou Ri is a gangster, and Ming Yan's personality has also become a bit violent in recent times.

"Xiaoyan, what are your plans next?" Zheng Yuanlong asked while driving.

As an agent, he needs to fully understand the artist's thoughts so that he can arrange the subsequent schedule.

What's more, Mingyan himself is a man with a lot of ideas.

"Brother Yuanlong, I want to take a break for a while." Ming Yan came back to his senses: "At least consider joining the crew after the summer. If there are good scripts during this period, I can also consider it."

For an actor, a six-month break is not long.

During this period, he also has to cooperate with some subsequent promotional activities of "The King", such as roadshows, so it would be better to consider taking on new dramas after it is completely finished.

"You still have to attend Paris Fashion Week next month. Dior has already sent an invitation."

"What date is it?"

"February 26th."

An artist’s rest period can only generally refer to the period when there are no movies to shoot, but there are still many sporadic activities, especially for artists like Ming Yan who are in the rising stage.

"Okay, I know."

"Also, didn't you participate in the design of a pair of public welfare sunglasses last time?" Zheng Yuanlong continued to talk about some arrangements. "Recently, there was a related public welfare donation for children with eye diseases in need in Seoul."

Mingyan thought for a moment and said, "Let's donate 100 million won."

He has always been enthusiastic about charity activities. When the brothers get together, they will rescue stray animals or move honeycomb coal to the elderly.

Artists can do more charity work to build their image, improve their popularity and national recognition, and it can't even be considered a simple contribution.

"Okay, I'll arrange it."

Zheng Yuanlong knew that Mingyan was rich.

Apart from anything else, the income from his filming fees and advertising endorsements in recent years is not a small amount, about 3 billion won after tax.

"Brother Yuanlong, please take me to Brother Woo Bin. I'll go see him first." Mingyan was always thinking about Jin Yubin's condition. His brother's illness had indeed had a great impact on him.

I didn’t have much time to spare before because I was filming, but now that I have time, I must harass Kim Woo Bin more.

He heard from Shin Min-a that a patient's cheerful mood is very helpful for recovery.

"Then I..."

"You don't have to wait, I'll go home by myself in a while."

When you are on vacation, you should act like you are on vacation. Why bother your agent all the time?

Zheng Yuanlong didn't say much. The artists were on vacation, but he couldn't rest. He had to go back to the company to arrange the next schedule.

Mingyan went up and chatted with Kim Woo Bin for a while. It could be seen that this guy looked very weak. After all, the process of fighting cancer was very difficult. However, his mentality was still good, and he was always talking and laughing.

With his family, brothers and girlfriend by his side, Kim Woo-bin is indeed full of hope for successful cancer treatment.

In order not to trouble Kim Woo Bin too much, Mingyan left before dinner time on the pretext of picking up Kim Min-woon. The child really came in handy as an excuse.

After he came out, he stood on the street and breathed a breath of fresh air. The sudden feeling of not having a job made Mingyan a little uncomfortable, as he was used to being busy.

Come to think of it, it seems like I haven't been to SM company for a while, and I don't even know how my niece is doing there.

Now that I have time, I should go and take a look and pick up the little one to take back with me.
