Peninsula: The Best Actor Begins with a Breakup

Chapter 246 The Moon and Kim Jisoo.

The two of them finally came to the courtyard and sat down on the clean stone steps.

The weeds in the center of the courtyard had been cleared away, and the stone steps leading up from the entrance shimmered with a faint white light under the moonlight.

"You should wear something underneath, otherwise you'll catch a cold and your stomach will hurt again."

Mingyan took off his coat and stuffed it under Kim Jisoo's butt.

Girls have a few days each month when their bodies are more vulnerable than usual, and sitting directly on the ground can easily make them catch a cold.

"It's okay, I'm not cold." Kim Jisoo nonchalantly pushed the clothes that someone handed her back.

In February, the nighttime temperature in Seoul is not high, and it can even drop below zero. You would definitely feel cold if you didn't wear clothes.

Mingyan forcefully slapped the girl's butt, and after she obediently lifted up, he laid the clothes down on top of her: "Just do what I tell you to do, or don't call me if your stomach hurts."

The threat worked as expected; Kim Jisoo only dared to mutter a few words under her breath: "You must be cold..."

"Look, what is this?"

Mingyan rolled up his sleeves and showed the guy the muscles on his arms.

His gym visits weren't for nothing; maintaining his physique was just the beginning in order to portray the character of Choi Doo-il well.

"That's awesome~" Kim Jisoo's tone sounded like she wanted to punch him.

However, the girl still looked somewhat worried.

"Don't worry, my cold resistance is definitely better than yours." Mingyan knew what Kim Jisoo was worried about: "I also want to go outside to see the moon and feel the breeze. These days, such opportunities are becoming increasingly rare."

When he was little, he liked to wander around the park near his home by himself, sitting on the swing and watching the moon.

Later, Kim Ji-soo became her little shadow, and the two of them often made Kim Ji-yoon, who came looking for them, very angry. What kind of good child doesn't go home late at night?

"We're all getting busier and busier, and when we finally get a holiday, we just lie in bed and don't want to move."

"Jisoo, you might be lazy."

"Hey, are you trying to die?!"

Kim Jisoo grabbed the guy's arm and bit him with practiced ease, clearly indicating she'd done this many times before.

"Are you going to give me another watch?" Mingyan let this guy take his anger out on his hand. When Kim Jisoo was little, she would bite his wrist and leave teeth marks, and then laugh and say it looked like a watch.

"I'll give you a real one next time."

Kim Jisoo speaks with great poise.

BLACKPINK was hailed as monster rookies upon their debut, with impressive sales and music chart performance. If they can maintain this momentum, making money is only a matter of time.

Mingyan laughed: "Then I'll be waiting. Let's make it clear first, no cheap stuff."

"Little Genius Children's Phone"

"If you dare to give it to me, I'll wear it to the airport and say it was a gift from you."

"Who is afraid of whom?"

"Yeah, who's afraid of who?"

Mingyan touched the teeth marks on his wrist. This guy had actually held back; if it had been a kid, there might have been some blood.

Jisoo's pearly white teeth are quite a weapon, much more effective than Nayeon's decorative teeth.

"Next month, I'll be leaving my Inkigayo MC position," Kim Jisoo murmured.

The two talked aimlessly, going about whatever came to mind.

Mingyan thought for a moment and said, "MC's contracts are all for one year. Your contract has just expired, so you're considered to have left the rookie phase behind."

"How do you know so clearly?"

“I was also invited to be an MC back then, but I didn’t accept.” In 2015, Ming Yan received an invitation from the Music Bank program team.

These music show MCs are usually chosen from newcomers in the industry, not limited to actors or idols. It's a bit of a shame that Mingyan said if he had accepted the offer back then, his partner would have been Bae Joo-hyun.

"Yeah, I was pretty busy in the first half of the year." Kim Jisoo counted on her fingers: "I had to oversee the house renovation, then film the group variety show, and then we had a comeback in the summer."

"Is it coming back again?"

"Yes, we've already heard the song demo, and we'll start recording and practicing the dance soon."

While celebrities may seem to lead a leisurely life, they actually have to prepare a lot of things before they are in the public eye, such as recording songs and rehearsing, which take up a significant amount of time.

If Jisoo is this busy, then Twice, who are constantly on schedule, must be even busier.

Lim Nayeon: Then why don't you come and see me?
Mingyan's face lit up with interest: "How's the new song?"

He was a bit conflicted. He hoped that Jisoo's group could release a hit song, but at the same time, he didn't want to put too much pressure on her, as she couldn't handle songs that were too technically demanding.

If they really did create a four-octave high note or something, Park Chae-young would probably have a hard time singing it.

"It's alright, it's pretty catchy, dududu~" Kim Jisoo hummed casually. She wasn't worried that Mingyan would leak the secret, since the music coming out of his mouth was a different song.

"This song sounds like it's going to be a huge hit."

"You don't understand anything, so why are you pretending to be an expert?"

"Hey, Kim Jisoo, I'm at least one of the listeners, right?" Mingyan wasn't very satisfied with the girl's attitude: "Girls' Generation's 'Gee' sounds pretty much like what you're humming."

A hit song doesn't necessarily need sophisticated musical taste, but it must be catchy, addictive, and easy to remember.

Twice's key to their comeback, "Cheer Up," focused on youthful energy, and with nine beautiful girls, it instantly captured the hearts of the Korean people.

Who wouldn't want to see an adorable little bunny cheering them on? Lim Nayeon's two front teeth are practically the embodiment of energy.

"It's already 2018, and Girls' Generation's song is almost ten years old."

"The essence will not change."

"Now that you've finished filming the movie, what are your plans?" Kim Jisoo turned to inquire about Mingyan's recent situation. This guy is a sensible person and definitely won't continue like this.

"Rest, time for class." Mingyan braced himself with his hands behind his back on the ground: "We'll be doing movie promotions soon."

"Attend class?"

Kim Ji-soo felt that this word was very distant from her. She and Ming-yeon were both poor students since childhood, and they would only put their heart into things that they were interested in.

Back then, Lim Na-yeon helped two of her best friends with their exams, which took quite a bit of effort.

Mingyan is alright; his academic performance is average. Even when he plagiarizes, he is quick and decisive, never dragging his feet. Jin Zhixiu is different; she is clumsy and timid, and some of her actions often make people laugh and cry.

Mingyan felt the ground was a bit cold: "Yeah, I'm going to have an acting class. Brother Yuanlong has already found a teacher for me."

"I think your acting is pretty good."

"Well, I think you dance very well."

“Our company also has acting classes, I’ve taken them before…” Kim Jisoo stopped mid-sentence and suddenly turned to look at Mingyan: “You weren’t just praising me, were you?”

"Jisoo, you've become smarter."

"You bastard, what's wrong with me dancing? What's wrong with me dancing?" Kim Jisoo waved her hands, intending to teach this guy a lesson.

Mingyan reached out and rubbed his hand against the girl's pants a few times: "Your dancing was pretty good, very cute."

He thinks Kim Jisoo or Kim Jiwon dance about the same, their skills may not be that great, but the filters are too thick, making it impossible to give an objective evaluation.

What are you rubbing against my leg for?

"I want to see if you're wearing long johns. It's still quite cold. You can't sacrifice warmth for style."

"Get lost, you've smeared dirt all over my pants."

"Have it?"
