Peninsula: The Best Actor Begins with a Breakup

Chapter 405 You are the culprit.

Mingyan answered without hesitation.

If he wants to get involved with Lim Nayeon, he needs to clearly and explicitly express his feelings, so that the girl doesn't have to keep guessing.

I like you, but I also like other people, instead of hesitating between you and other people to make a choice.

Well, although they're both trash, their styles of trashiness are completely different.

"What? What if I can't date?"

Lim Na-yeon looked surprised.

Although she and Mingyan had already crossed that threshold, they rarely expressed their feelings so openly to each other, instead relying more on ambiguity and subtlety.

However, Rabbit Teeth really likes domineering Mingyan. When this guy expresses his possessiveness... he's really cool!
"You're not supposed to be in a relationship anyway," the man said bluntly. "Nayeon, your requirement of seven years is indeed a bit high."

“It won’t be seven years. We’ve been in the industry for almost three years now, so we only have four more years before we can be a little more free,” Lim Nayeon said, counting on her fingers.

It's 2018 now, and four years from now it will be 2022. That will be TWICE's seventh anniversary since their debut, which will coincide with the end of their first contract.

By then, the group should have passed its peak, the members will have more freedom, and fans will be able to gradually accept that their favorite idols are moving into the next stage of their lives.

Three years, seven years, and ten years are roughly the three most important milestones for an idol.

Hmm... if we don't consider dating, three years is still an option.

"Four years, that's not so bad."

"Right, that's why I have a lot of suitors, so I don't have to worry about finding a partner at all."

As Lim Nayeon spoke, she secretly glanced at Mingyan's expression to see if he would get anxious.

Hmph, I'm not necessarily going to wait for you here forever!
"Tell me, who's pursuing you?" Mingyan met the girl's gaze, his eyes full of smiles.

Rabbit Teeth didn't expect Mingyan to ask this: "This... I can't tell you, it's a matter of personal privacy."

The company and managers behind Twice are quite helpful, both overtly and covertly reducing a lot of trouble for the boys. Unless the members themselves develop romantic feelings, there's nothing that can be done.

The strongest fortresses are often breached from within.

Like Lim Na-yeon and Park Ji-hyo, they are impossible to control; they always sneak out to meet whoever they want.

And then there's Son Chaeyoung, the second youngest member, who's also causing trouble. She got a tattoo behind the company's back and cut her hair short, which has taken up a lot of her manager's attention.

"Okay then, you have privacy, and I have privacy too. Let's respect each other."

Mingyan nodded in a perfunctory manner.

"What did you do again?" Lin Nalian stared at the guy suspiciously.

If they keep it a secret from each other, it seems like they'll be at a greater disadvantage. After all, Mingyan has a long history of romantic escapades, and who knows how many entanglements he had with his ex-girlfriends.

Just dealing with Kim Ji-won alone is giving Lim Na-yeon a real headache.

The man slightly raised his hands: "Heaven and earth bear witness, I did nothing."

"Really?"

"Fake!"

Rabbit Teeth pouted.

She knew in her heart that the person would definitely not stay put, but since she didn't have a formal title yet, it wouldn't be easy for her to interfere.

Hmph, this guy won't have it so easy in the future.

"Nayeon, how are things between you and Jeongyeon lately?" Mingyan started asking about his second sister, to see if Jeongyeon had done anything out of line, so he could adjust his strategy accordingly.

Lim Nayeon was still a little confused: "What do you mean, how?"

She and Yoo Jeong-yeon were in the same group, slept in the same dormitory, and went to the same high school. They always had a good relationship.

Otherwise, Rabbit Teeth wouldn't have gone to such lengths to hope that Mingyan could gain his friend's approval.

"I mean, does she often ask you to take a shower, or something like that?"

Mingyan felt compelled to cite concrete examples to remind Lim Nayeon that she might be hiding a ghost in her house!
"No, we only shower together occasionally when we go out to bathe." Rabbit-toothed's eyes sparkled: "Why are you so interested in our bathing routines?"

The man sighed helplessly. "I'm worried about you. Be careful you don't get taken advantage of without even realizing it. It's really not easy to tell the difference between girls' intimacy."

"If possible, you should avoid taking baths with Jeongyeon as much as possible."

"why?"

"I don't feel good about it."

Lim Nayeon frowned in confusion. It's one thing to control dating, but why does she have to control her interactions with the other members?

Isn't the scope of "vinegar" a bit too broad?

……

Mingyan said that after returning to Seoul, he would fulfill the promise he had made to Lee Kwang-soo.

Participate in an episode of "The Prisoner Is You".

This is also a Netflix variety show, and they even went to great lengths to invite Yoo Jae-suk and Lee Kwang-soo. Any variety show with these two is bound to be a success.

Netflix has been very active this year, with movies, TV series, and variety shows all thriving, and its presence can be seen everywhere.

Mingyan and Kim Eun-sook discussed Netflix.

Kim Eun-sook also saw that Netflix was very determined to enter the South Korean market, and that the Korean Wave could gain greater influence globally by relying on this American platform, which is likely to be a major trend in the next few years.

Therefore, it's a good thing that the two sides can form a positive relationship, and there might be opportunities for cooperation in the future.

"Brother Jae-seok, it's been a long time."

When Mingyan arrived at the film set, he first greeted Yoo Jae-suk.

In terms of relationships, he is closest to Lee Kwang-soo, but Yoo Jae-suk is the biggest name and the most senior among all the MCs, and is the main MC of this variety show.

“Xiao Yan, it’s not easy to see you these days.” Yoo Jae-suk has seen his share of ups and downs in the industry, but young people like Ming Yan who are steadily rising in status are still rare.

“Brother Jae-seok, I’m mainly afraid of saying the wrong thing if I drink too much water.”

Yoo Jae-suk is a chatterbox and loves to give advice to young people. For example, even at his age, he still gives Lee Kwang-soo dating advice.

However, his dinner parties are usually very simple. He doesn't drink alcohol, just water, and then they just sit there and chat.

This guy and Kim Jong-kook are evenly matched.

"Brother, Xiaoyan is a guest I invited. Otherwise, such a popular actor wouldn't just casually participate in the show." It's probably only Lee Kwang-soo and Mingyan's relationship that allows them to joke like this.

Mingyan shook his head: "I was clearly promoting my new movie, it has nothing to do with you."

"Hey, Xiaoyan, you're turning your back on me now, aren't you?"

“Kwang-soo hyung, I’m telling the truth.”

Mingyan spoke with the two main MCs for a while, and then greeted the other MCs on the show.

"Xiao Yan, it's been a long time." Park Min-young gave the man a brief handshake.

Mingyan smiled and said, "Noona, it's been a long time."

He and this woman were somewhat acquainted, the kind of people who had a deep connection despite not being close friends, but she was far from being his ex-girlfriend; they had only been together a couple of times.

Neither of them showed any unusual behavior.

In this circle, these are all basic skills; sleeping with someone doesn't prevent you from becoming a stranger.

When facing the other MC, Mingyan was much more enthusiastic: "Sehun-ssi, hello, I'm actor Mingyan."

"Hello, I am Oh Sehun from EXO."

Actually, the two should be considered friends in terms of age, since they were both born in 1994.

"Sehun-ssi, there's something I'd like to ask you for help with." Mingyan winked at Jung Won-ryong; he definitely needed a manager with him when he came out to film.

"What's the deal?"

"Please sign your name for me."
