Peninsula: The Best Actor Begins with a Breakup

Chapter 341 Jeongyeon, please help me.

Filming for "Memories of the Alhambra" is expected to begin in the second half of the year.

Mingyan's schedule has already been coordinated with the production team through Zheng Yuanlong, which will save him from having to promote another show while filming here. Doing too much of that would damage his reputation.

His resources are probably the envy of many. He hasn't had a long hiatus since his debut, and he's been getting one acting role after another.

Kim Ji-won is currently unemployed.

Mingyan is taking this time to hone his acting skills, break away from his previous relatively simple roles, and prepare to take on a new role: Liu Zhenyu, the representative of an investment company.

Oh, and he also needs to go to the shooting range more often to get a feel for it, because he's almost forgotten the skills he learned while filming "Descendants of the Sun".

Actors are different from idols. They have to change themselves to fit the characters, and for this they are willing to make themselves look ugly or gain weight. Some actors' characters are so well made up that even their mothers might not recognize them.

This needs to be divided into internal and external aspects. Physically, one should be close to the character, while spiritually, one should make the character closer to oneself.

Ming said that he and Ahn Hyuk-mo had a special discussion about their understanding of the characters.

Since it's foreseeable that another few million in film fees will be coming in, it's time to put spending money on it; after all, it's just sitting in the account anyway.

He frequently receives calls from various financial advisors or financial institutions, all of whom are after his cash flow.

This investment, that investment—who knows which one might be a huge scam? News reports about people being scammed come up every now and then, and some of the scammers' children even work in the entertainment industry.

There's a saying going around online these days: "If you don't manage your money, your money will never leave you."

Therefore, after considering all the options, buying a house is still the safest option. Many celebrities have invested in land and buildings, renting them out to earn rental income, and then reselling them after a couple of years when the value has increased, making a net profit of billions of Korean won.

Mingyan's most pressing need right now is to quickly move to a new house and then enjoy a better life with Kim Minjung.

"Uncle, you seem to be very happy."

Kim Minjung keenly sensed Myung-yeon's emotions.

"Because my next TV series has been confirmed." Mingyan smiled as she prepared breakfast. Given that she would be spending a lot of money in the foreseeable future, having work was definitely something to be happy about.

The little guy thought for a moment: "Was it that script from last time... related to AR?"

"Yes, I'm really good at this. I auditioned twice before I got the chance to act in it."

Actually, auditioning twice is nothing. Some big productions with strict requirements even have more than ten auditions. But that's just the way it is, and it doesn't stop Mingyan from showing off in front of his niece.

"Uncle is awesome~" Kim Minjung was particularly impressed with Mingyan.

From the little guy's perspective, Mingyan is someone who seems nonchalant but can actually handle everything perfectly with a wave of his hand. Students without social experience are indeed prone to having similar fantasies.

"Eat more for breakfast, and have an extra fried egg." The man pushed the plate towards Kim Minjung: "We're going out to look at houses today, and we might have to walk a lot."

"Is it just the two of us?"

Kim Jisoo, Kim Ji-won, Lim Na-yeon...

I don't think my potential aunts-in-law would miss out on such an important event.

"There's one more. Let me make a call first." Mingyan took out his phone and dialed Lin Nayeon's number.

Nayeon's voice startled Minjung: "Hey, did you miss me?"

What's happening here?
The little guy thought that Mingyan had stayed up all night teaching Kim Ji-won Chinese, and that the older sister was about to win. But then Lim Na-yeon came up with this sentence, which was obviously flirting.

"Minjung, say hello to Nayeon unnie."

Mingyan turned on speakerphone and gestured for his niece to say something.

He doesn't mind flirting, but it's not appropriate in front of the children.

"Ah... um..." Nayeon's voice was visibly flustered: "Minjeong, good morning. I was just casually greeting your uncle, haha."

It's better not to explain the rabbit teeth; the more you explain, the more likely people are to overthink things.

"Nayeon unnie, good morning." Kim Minjung finally understood why Mingyan always said, "Children shouldn't meddle in adult matters." It seemed like there was more to it than met the eye.

These older sisters seem to be progressing at the same pace. Whenever she thinks Kim Ji-won has made a breakthrough, Lim Na-yeon will catch up, while only Kim Ji-soo remains calm from beginning to end.

Mingyan picked up the conversation: "Nayeon, I'm going to look at houses with Minjung later." "Ah~ but I have plans later."

"A group?"

"No, it's mine, Sana's, and Tzuyu's."

One advantage of having nine members is that they can often split up and appear on different shows. You go to the radio, I go to variety shows, she does live broadcasts, which maximizes their utilization.

"Then lend me Jeongyeon for a day, is that alright?" This was clearly a rhetorical question with ulterior motives.

His initial target was the second sister; girls have a deep understanding of houses.

As for why Lim Na-yeon was chosen to speak...

This can further enhance Yu Jung-yeon's sense of guilt and remorse when facing the rabbit teeth, and over time, the inappropriate thoughts will gradually disappear.

Lim Nayeon added, "Don't keep teasing Jeongyeon, or you'll really make her angry."

"No, mainly because Jeongyeon is very experienced with houses. If I take her along, we might avoid some pitfalls."

"Okay, I'll put in a good word for you."

Rabbit Teeth didn't think much of it; she was happy to see Mingyan and Yu Dingyan get along well.

If Yoo Jeongyeon could help her fight against wild women like Kim Ji-won, she could save a lot of effort.

"Please." Mingyan imagined the expression on her second sister's face later and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"why are you laughing?"

"No, no, you should go and ask."

……

"Jeongyeon~"

After hanging up the phone, Lim Nayeon immediately started using her charm and aegyo (cuteness/coquetry) technique.

"What are you doing? Just say what you want to say." Yu Dingyan immediately became wary. Once this guy became clingy, it was never a good thing. He was either asking for a favor or trying to cause trouble.

Lin Nalian grinned, showing her two rabbit teeth: "You don't have any plans today, right?"

"Hmm, I'm planning to go find Mina to play a puzzle with, and then come back and get a good night's sleep."

She couldn't sleep well at night, so she had to catch up on sleep during her daytime rest time.

“Mingyan just called me…” Lin Nayeon’s words made her second sister’s heart tighten, afraid that he would say something inappropriate: “He wants you to go house hunting with him.”

"Don't go."

Yu Dingyan shook her head and refused without even thinking.

She couldn't wait to never see that guy again.

"Jeongyeon, just go, it'll be a favor to me, okay?" Lim Nayeon plopped down on her friend's lap, giving her a death grip.

Yoo Jeongyeon said firmly, "Nayeon unnie, I can't help you."

Her poor sister had no idea what that awful guy was up to.

"You should go. You can keep an eye on him for me."

"Look at him?"

"Yes, let's see if he consulted other people's opinions when he was looking at houses, and then come back and tell me."

Buying a house is a big deal. The fact that he explicitly asked for someone's opinion shows who is more important to him. Yu Dingyan representing himself shows that he knows what he's doing.

That night wasn't a wasted sleep.

Yu Dingyan looked utterly helpless.

Isn't he asking for my opinion?
