Peninsula: The Best Actor Begins with a Breakup

Chapter 364 Lin Na-yeon: Where are my comrades?
A constellation of stars, weaving a tapestry of power struggles.

[The King: A sharp dissection of South Korea's dark politics.]

[From Go Dong-man to Choi Doo-il: Actor Myung-eon's Transformation.]

The day after the VIP screening of the movie, related press releases were already circulating online.

The media and film critics who attended the preview screening didn't come for nothing. They either had connections with Han Jae-rim or the production and distribution company, or they received travel expenses through other channels. In short, now is the time for them to play their part.

Marketing may sound like it has no barriers to entry, but it's actually a very technical skill.

How well a work is promoted can, to some extent, determine its final box office performance and results.

Before Mingyan even saw the press releases, Kim Minjung was already excitedly reading them aloud to his uncle on his phone.

Since this little one joined the family, Mingyan says he doesn't need to watch the news anymore.

“Myung-eun completely overturned his image in ‘Fight for My Way.’ The character Choi Doo-il is like a glass man who has been crushed and reshaped by fate. Every scar on his body tells the paradox of loyalty and betrayal.”

When he was shot while protecting Park Tae-joon, played by Jo In-sung, I got goosebumps all over. Such acting skills that can make the audience empathize to the point of having a physical reaction are rare among the new generation of actors.

Uncle, did you hear that?

Kim Minjung's voice grew louder and more excited as she read her prepared statement, as if she were the one being praised.

"I heard that, but it's not that exaggerated." Mingyan was a little embarrassed. These film critics are so cheesy. People who don't know better would think it was written by a fan.

Kim Minjung gave a thumbs up: "Uncle, you're the best."

The girl didn't think the press release was exaggerated; in fact, she thought it was just right.

Although she had never seen the movie.

However, as long as it's something like praising Mingyan, then Kim Minjung wouldn't mind lending a hand.

Aren't you going to eat breakfast today?

Mingyan washed his face first, and when he came out, he saw the child staring at the bread on the table, drooling.

"I'll just have a cup of coffee. As long as I get through the monthly exam, I'll be fine." Kim Minjung gritted her teeth. She had been indulging herself too much recently, and as a result, her weight had skyrocketed.

Nowadays, girls have to endure some hardship in order to pass the monthly exams.

"come on!"

……

Online, there are not only press releases about the movie's content, but also many fans of the pairing of Ming Yan and Kim Ji-won celebrating with champagne.

These two have rarely appeared together since the promotional period for "Fight for My Way" ended; the last time was at the year-end awards ceremony.

Especially Kim Ji-won, this woman really doesn't show her face when she doesn't have any schedules, she doesn't even update her personal Instagram account, it's almost like she's completely disappeared.

Mingyan might be a little better off, since he is often seen participating in various events, and you can also see related brand advertisements when he walks on the street.

Anyway, the fans of the two have gone crazy during this period, and can only survive on the sweet moments from the past.

Unexpectedly, like rain after a long drought, Mingyan and Kim Ji-won either disappeared without a trace or suddenly did something big.

"The King" is a movie that explicitly states that Kim Ji-won was invited to the preview screening.

what is this?
Oh, love!

Ming-yan actually addressed this in a later interview, saying that he and Kim Ji-won are good friends, but he couldn't stop the CP fans from spreading rumors.

After all, breaking the bond won't silence the CP fans. As long as they make their stance clear and don't actively create hype, it will ultimately depend on their work.

[So touching! They're such a perfect match!]

[Unfortunately, oppa and unnie didn't take a photo together last night.]

[Ji-won unnie rarely participates in similar events, but she actually came out last night. Only Myung-yeon oppa has this kind of face.] Fans can't see other factors, such as expanding their network or befriending influential people, but what they say is true to some extent.

Myung-yeon and Kim Ji-won's relationship is indeed not innocent; it's even more complicated than one might imagine.

The fans were so engrossed in their idol worship that they lost all sense of reason, but little did they know they had angered someone in TWICE's waiting room.

Lim Na-yeon was furious. Last night, at the preview screening of Ming-yan's movie, Kim Ji-soo and Kim Ji-won both attended. They were her two biggest rivals.

The feeling of being one player short is not pleasant.

Of course, Mingyan had told her about this before. After all, someone is very discreet, and no matter whether Rabbit Teeth had time or not, she still had to tell her. This kind of thing simply can't be kept secret.

Kim Ji-won is a popular actress born in the 90s, and Kim Ji-soo goes without saying. BLACKPINK is known as a group with many female fans, both casual fans and their own dedicated fanbase.

What happened one second ago is now being posted all over the internet the next.

Lim Nayeon declined the offer because she had no plans to pursue acting and TWICE had too many schedules to keep up.

However, this doesn't stop girls from getting jealous.

She just hates the feeling of being absent.

Nayeon wouldn't get angry with Mingyan for no reason; that wouldn't make sense. So she could only vent her anger online. After all, using alternate accounts to argue was already a familiar tactic for Nayeon.

【Super, super, super beautiful rabbit 12138】, launched!

This ID even became famous on the forum for the pairing of Mingyan and Kim Ji-won, and was directly labeled as a hater.

One particularly interesting phenomenon is that Kim Ji-won's fans said that 【超超超美丽兔子12138】 is a fan of Mingyan because there are many records of her defending Mingyan in her past posts, so it has nothing to do with them.

Mingyan's fans said that this person was a fake hater, but in reality, he was a fan of Kim Ji-won.

The two sides argued endlessly about this, but all they could do was engage in verbal battles, without producing any useful results.

[As he stated in yesterday's interview, he and Kim Ji-won are just good friends. As fans, we shouldn't cause trouble for the artist, and I believe he wouldn't want to see this situation.]

Lim Na-yeon flexed her fingers.

Although her reply was politely worded, the real hunt was about to begin.

Come on, come on, let me have some fun.

The CP fans, who were celebrating, spotted Lim Nayeon and immediately surrounded her, starting to criticize her. They showed no mercy to those who dared to be rude and insensitive despite the adversity.

However, Lim Nayeon is very strong in combat and is not at a disadvantage against multiple opponents.

She even found herself a teammate.

【I'm the third son, not the second】, a very strange ID.

Rabbit Teeth actually had teammates before, but that account called "Piggy Snake" hadn't been logged into for a long time, probably a pseudonym that someone used once and then abandoned.

That's how it is online; one day you're fighting side by side, and the next day you can't contact each other anymore.

Yoo Jimin: Oppa really rubbed me hard that day~
[You're overthinking it. Mingyan, even if he has someone he likes, it won't be Kim Ji-won.]

The attack power of the ID "I'm the Third, Not the Second" was recognized by Lim Nayeon. Although the two did not communicate, they were of one mind and joined forces to deliver a satisfying and powerful attack.

What a great word for "shuang"!
Lim Na-yeon finally felt much better; the internet wasn't all bad after all.

She picked up the water bottle next to her, took a sip, wiped her mouth, and then opened the chat box with [It's the third, not the second]: "Pleasure doing business with you."

"You're welcome, I was just stating the facts."

"You also think that Mingyan has someone else he likes, right?"

"Correct!"
