Peninsula: The Best Actor Begins with a Breakup

Chapter 438 Going Abroad.

"Minjung, take good care of yourself at home alone."

Before we knew it, it was the end of August, and it was time for Mingyan to leave again.

This trip won't be short, since we're going to Spain to film. As the lead actor, I can't just wander around aimlessly, and coordinating filming locations is quite troublesome.

"Don't worry, Uncle, I have experience." Kim Minjung absolutely loved living this kind of life.

Seventeen-year-old girls generally prefer to live independently, and an adult like Mingyan, who spoils them and provides pocket money even when he's not home, is the dream uncle of every girl in this age group.

Of course, Mingyan is not very old either; a six-year age difference is not enough to make them two generations in terms of their views.

The man tapped his niece's little head: "Don't misbehave, be good, okay?"

"I'll have Jimin unnie and Ningning come with me, then everything will be fine, right?"

“Zhiminxing, Ningning…”

Mingyan felt that Kim Minjung and Ning Yizhuo getting together was unlikely to be anything good, and that they shouldn't cause any more trouble by staying out all night.

Liu Zhimin is very reassuring; the child is older and more stable.

"Uncle, you're just biased towards Jimin unnie." Kim Minjung pouted. This kid has now learned to use jokes between his friends to tease Mingyan.

"That's because Zhimin is great."

"What did you say?"

"Is it wrong to be old?"

Liu Zhimin is already eighteen years old, which is considered an adult according to international standards, so she should be more mature than those two little kids.

It is clear that a protection system has been established.

When he's not around, Yoo Jimin usually takes care of her niece. If anything happens, she can call on Kim Jisoo and Lim Nayeon for help. If those two older sisters are busy, there's also Kim Jiwon.

Even if, hypothetically, something happens that Lim Nayeon can't handle, Yoo Jeongyeon and Hirai Momo can still help.

See, all the efforts men make in daily life aren't just for themselves; they can come in handy at crucial moments.

You have to put in the effort regularly; you can't cram at the last minute.

Kim Minjung felt he couldn't argue with Mingyan, so he pushed him towards the door, saying, "Alright, Uncle, you should hurry up, or you'll miss your flight."

"I trust Yuanlong's skills." This kind of trip abroad definitely needs someone to accompany you. There are many things that need to be handled by the manager when you're abroad, and the artist's life experience might not be up to par.

Actors are a little better off, but some idols can't even buy hotels and plane tickets without their managers.

The filming location for "Memories of the Alhambra" is Granada, a small city in Spain, because the Alhambra Palace, mentioned in the title, is located there. It is a palace built by the Moors in the Middle Ages.

Mingyan and Zheng Yuanlong set off alone. They were going to Shanghai, China, to participate in a trip before flying directly to Madrid, Spain. After landing, they would transfer to other means of transportation to the filming location.

The entire journey takes more than forty hours.

When he finally arrived, the main cast, including Park Shin-hye and Park Chan-yeol, were already there.

"Xiao Yan, you're a little late."

When everyone gathered for dinner that evening, Park Shin-hye looked at Myung-eon, who looked exhausted, and smiled.

"Noona, you've already adjusted to the time difference." There's a seven-hour time difference between South Korea and Spain, and Seoul is even earlier.

"Not yet, I arrived two days earlier than you." Park Shin-hye said with a bitter face, "Besides, I'm not used to the food here yet, I need to get used to it slowly."

Traveling abroad is fine, but filming locally for an extended period of time is quite challenging.

Mingyan pointed to the hotel above and said, "I brought ramen and kimchi. I'll share some with you later."

"I brought some too, let's save them for later."

Mingyan also greeted the director and screenwriter, and the crew was quite thoughtful, making time for everyone to travel and sightsee in the surrounding area before starting the official filming.

One evening, in a hotel room.

"I didn't make a mistake with the time this time, did I?"

In the video, Lim Na-yeon's expression was smug.

"Hey, you've improved." Mingyan's tone was full of doting affection and helplessness. Rabbit Tooth had been forgetting the time difference between Korea and Spain for the past two days. After finishing her schedule at night, she called, waking Mingyan up just as she had finally fallen asleep.

After repeating this process twice, Lim Na-yeon finally learned to put herself in others' shoes.

So, the girl is now calling at noon, making it clear that she has just finished dinner.

Lim Na-yeon asked casually, "How's the filming progress going?"

"It's alright, we've only just started filming." Mingyan thought for a moment, "We'll probably be filming here for about a month and a half, and I won't be able to go back until around mid-October."

"Ah~ so long..."

Lim Na-yeon seemed to be feeling sorry that someone couldn't make it back to celebrate her birthday.

"That's normal. The Spanish content will take up about six episodes, and a month and a half is already quite a tight schedule." Filming abroad means a significant increase in costs, and the crew has to spend money every day here.

This is why CJ can afford to burn money; otherwise, apart from Netflix, no one would produce such a high-budget production.

The current expenses are only a small part; there are still various special effects to be produced, which are also expensive.

However, Ming said that as an actor, he doesn't need to think so much. As long as the pay is in place, he's happy. He's still waiting to buy a house.

"Okay then, I guess I won't be able to come back for my birthday."

"determine."

"You're not planning some kind of surprise for me, are you?" Lim Nayeon looked at Mingyan with a hint of suspicion; this guy was definitely capable of doing something like that.

Do you want a surprise?

"No, no, work comes first, haha."

Rabbit Teeth waved his hands repeatedly in refusal.

She's still planning something big; there's no need to explicitly tell her anything or give her any surprises.

The girl was thinking that she would take advantage of the confession to win him over in one fell swoop. If she could make him feel that he hadn't given enough, that would be even better. The one who feels indebted will always give more love.

Maybe if I did that, I could catch up with Kim Ji-soo.

"Really no need?"

"No need, why are you so long-winded? I'm hanging up."

Mingyan stared blankly at the black screen, wondering why Lim Nayeon's attitude had suddenly changed when she hadn't said anything.

She doesn't want any surprises; is she planning something big?

……

"Xiao Yan, do you still have any secret stash left?"

The next day, after filming wrapped, Ahn Gil-ho asked mysteriously.

"Yes, enough for two meals." Mingyan thought for a moment, and in addition to ramen and kimchi, he also brought rice cakes, and at just the right moment during a break in filming, he showed off his cooking skills to the other staff.

Then, everyone started to have their eyes on it.

Spanish food isn't bad, but a pure Korean wouldn't be used to eating it every day.

Ahn Gil-ho laughed and said, "Our filming has been going very smoothly lately, so why don't you be generous and we celebrate tonight?"

Spicy stir-fried rice cakes?

"Okay, it's settled."

The filming atmosphere on the set of "Memories of the Alhambra" was quite harmonious. Apart from filming, everyone entertained themselves by going sightseeing or shopping in the surrounding area.

Park Shin-hye will also play the guitar for everyone, which fits the romantic atmosphere of Spain perfectly.

"Chanyeol hyung, come and help." Mingyan and Park Chanyeol's relationship was getting closer and closer; the speed at which men become intimate is very fast.

"it is good."
