Peninsula: The Best Actor Begins with a Breakup

Chapter 443 is coming.

Mingyan was unaware of the storm that was gradually forming in South Korea.

He is still focused on filming his new drama. After all, AR is a completely new challenge, and the acting requirements are somewhat different from his previous experience.

Ming Yan would even time out the specific moments to send videos to Ahn Hyuk-mo, asking him for advice on subtle differences in performance.

Filming every day, exercising, chatting with Lim Nayeon, Kim Jisoo, or Kim Jiwon, teasing Yoo Jeongyeon, and listening to Hirai Momo's rambling reports—life is very fulfilling.

"Jisoo, why do you look unhappy?"

The man was holding up his phone, intending to show Kim Jisoo the scenery of Spain, but then he noticed that his friend's smile seemed a little forced.

"It's nothing, I've just been a bit too tired lately," Kim Jisoo said, forcing a smile.

Park Chaeyoung's words that day served as a wake-up call for her.

If Mingyan and Lim Nayeon get together, will nothing really change? Will I still be able to call her like I do now?

Some things you don't know until you think about them, and then you're shocked.

Mingyan said with a hint of worry, "If you're tired, just rest. If you really can't take it, ask your manager for leave. Anyway, YG and JYP are different."

This is definitely how it is when idols are busy. They're lucky if they can get two or three hours of sleep a day. Lim Nayeon has cried from exhaustion while running her schedule more than once or twice. She would call and start crying without saying a word, and then she would still have to keep working the next day after she finished crying.

There's no way around it; this is the kind of money we earn. Ordinary people may put in just as much hard work, but their income is vastly different.

"Did Nayeon...call you?"

“She hits me, she hits me every day, don’t you know her?”

Mingyan didn't think anything was wrong; even Kim Jisoo didn't call as frequently as Rabbit Teeth.

“That’s true, Nayeon has always been very clingy.” Kim Jisoo smiled.

The man thought Nayeon was just having a casual chat with him: "Nayeon always says that she's clingy to me, and I'm clingy to you."

Are you clingy?

"Don't talk about this between good brothers, it feels awkward to be so clingy."

Kim Jisoo didn't say anything after that, and hung up the phone directly.

Mingyan said that there was still a night scene to film today, so he didn't have time to think too much about Kim Jisoo's unusual behavior. It's normal for girls to have emotional ups and downs.

"Screenwriter, I have some thoughts I'd like to discuss with you about the scene I'm about to film." The man approached Song Jae-jeong with the script in hand.

Kim Eun-sook has a lot of influence. Ming-yan said that she received a lot of help from this aunt on set, and they could chat about their understanding of the characters.

Park Shin-hye even joked that he was a screenwriter killer, always able to win the favor of the bigwigs in the production crew.

It's worth noting that when filming "Descendants of the Sun," Myung-gon was just a rookie actor who was selected by Kim Eun-sook because of his good looks, but in the blink of an eye, he became her apprentice.

The teacher-student relationship is very close; they can even make decisions on each other's behalf at crucial moments.

"Okay."

Song Zaizhen greatly admired Mingyan and finally understood why her friend had accepted him as a disciple.

Who could refuse a handsome, charming, talented, and hardworking junior who wants to learn from them?

……

Time passes day by day.

Ming said that his life in Spain was quite peaceful, without as much hustle and bustle as in Seoul. He spent his days filming and taking walks, and he didn't even have to pretend when he went out.

He can actually understand why celebrities like to vacation in Europe and America.

Because they are "unknown," they don't have to worry about being recognized by fans on the street and can choose to be ordinary people.

Because the filming progressed very quickly, and Mingyan also had other personal commitments, he was able to return to Seoul on October 12th, about a week earlier than expected.

"Brother Yuanlong, you should go back now. You've worked hard these past few days."

Ming Yan thanked Zheng Yuanlong. He wasn't alone in Spain; he had his agent with him, and Zheng Yuanlong was even busier than the artist.

"I'll treat this as a vacation; it'll definitely be more relaxing than being in Seoul." Jung Won-ryong couldn't wait to go home. No matter how nice it is outside, nothing beats his own home.

"it is good."

When Mingyan got out of the car, he was carrying all the gifts he had bought in Spain. The most valuable of them was, of course, the belated birthday gift for Lim Nayeon, as well as gifts for Kim Jisoo, Kim Jiwon, and Kim Minjung.

Considering that his niece must have troubled others a lot during this time, he also brought Liu Zhimin and Ning Yizhuo's share.

He also bought a gift for Yu Dingyan, but it's unknown whether his second sister will accept it.

Oh, right, and there's also Hirai Momo's share. That kid diligently helped me "monitor" Yoo Jeong-yeon; she deserves credit for her hard work, even if she didn't get any credit.

Hirai Momo: I even created this mission myself.

There was a whole bunch of miscellaneous stuff, and it took a lot of effort to carry it upstairs. Having too many friends can also be a downside; it's not good to leave anyone behind when something like this happens.

No one was home. Kim Minjung was probably still practicing at the company. The little one had been very busy lately. Entering Class A had greatly inspired Kim Minjung, and she didn't want to be eliminated in the fierce competition.

Mingyan said he was going to give his niece a surprise, so after washing up and resting for a while, he drove to the SM Entertainment building.

"Uncle!"

Kim Minjung came out of the door rubbing his shoulders. His originally exhausted appearance turned into pure joy the moment he saw Mingyan.

The girl took a running start and pounced on Mingyan, landing right in his arms.

"Hey, this is right in front of your company. You're a grown woman, you should be mindful of your image." Mingyan also thoroughly enjoyed this kind of familial affection, something he had never experienced before, and something he now cherished and protected.

Kim Minjung tilted her little head up, her eyes sparkling as she looked at the man: "Uncle, why did you come back early?"

"The filming went smoothly, so we moved it up. Did you miss your uncle?"

"Think about it."

Living independently is good, but Kim Minjung still prefers the time when Mingyan is at home, as his uncle's presence makes him feel safe.

"Oppa~" Yoo Jimin's face was also full of surprise. She had spent a lot of time with Kim Minjung over the past month, but she hadn't been into Myungyeon's room again. What if she saw something she shouldn't have seen again?

The girl still thinks about those safety gear from last time from time to time.

"Zhimin, you've worked hard."

"No no."

"Let's go, everyone come to my house tonight, I'll cook hot pot myself." It's already mid-October, and the weather is getting cooler. "Zhimin, Ningning, I also brought you gifts from Spain."

"Thank you, oppa!" Ning Yizhuo didn't know what made her happy for a moment.

Hot pot and gifts, both are great.

Liu Zhimin had even less reason to refuse.

The three of them went to the supermarket first. They needed ingredients for hot pot, and Mingyan said that they were buying the most authentic Chinese hot pot base, which was different from those pseudo-Korean modified versions.

He also called Lim Nayeon and asked if Rabbit Tooth would come over for hot pot if she had time.

"Hey, get to the point."

"I'm back in Korea. We're having hot pot tonight, are you coming?" Mingyan's main characteristic is being compliant and concise, explaining the situation to the point.

Rabbit Teeth's voice suddenly rose: "You went back to Korea?!"

"Yeah, why are you so surprised?"

"It's okay, I can't go tonight. I'll contact you later."

"What are you looking for me for?"

"Never mind what I'm doing, I'll be looking for you in a few days, you have to come!"
