Peninsula: The Best Actor Begins with a Breakup

Chapter 510 Minjung, we're moving to a new house!

"Jisoo unnie, where have you been?"

As soon as Kim Jisoo returned home, Park Chaeyoung sniffed her around like a hunting dog.

This woman rarely goes out. When she's resting, she stays in her room playing with her dog and playing games—a complete homebody.

When someone acts differently than usual, it means there's a problem.

Rose is already impatient; the problem must be related to Mingyan.

"I...I went to look at houses." Kim Jisoo blurted out. She knew she couldn't hide it from her younger sister; Park Chaeyoung's nose was even better than her own moon bear's.

Park Chae-young paused for a moment: "Looking at houses?"

BLACKPINK has only been around for two years, and their world tour is just about to begin. Isn't it a bit too early for them to be moving out of the dorms now?

Moreover, they live in single rooms, and the conditions are quite good.

"Oh dear, I'm going to take a shower now, you can go out first."

Kim Jisoo waved her hand, making a gesture as if to shoo Park Chaeyoung away.

"Unnie, I get it." Rosé's eyes lit up: "You went house hunting with oppa, right?"

She had heard about Mingyan's intention to buy a house before, but she hadn't paid much attention to it at the time. Now, putting the facts into perspective, it wasn't difficult for her to guess the answer.

"That's not important."

"If this isn't important, what is? This shows that oppa still cares about you."

Park Chae-young's words were truly earnest and heartfelt.

Rose had already noticed that Kim Jisoo's once rock-solid attitude had begun to waver after taking that test, though not to a great extent yet.

As the saying goes, flies don't land on eggs without cracks; as long as there's a crack, it's easy to deal with.

Of course, I'm not a fly; if I had to describe myself, I'd say I'm a little bee spreading love and peace.

Kim Jisoo continued taking off her clothes, saying, "We've always been like this."

"Jisoo unnie, what are you thinking? It's not too late to take action now." Park Chaeyoung is always worried about this older sister. It's just a matter of taking the final step, but the last step is always the most difficult.

Those two are idiots, complete idiots!
"What action?"

"Take oppa away from Nayeon unnie!"

This is obvious, yet you insist on making it all so clear.

Kim Jisoo shook her head: "No need."

She would never do something like stealing a man from her best friend. Besides, who says there has to be love between a man and a woman? Her friendship with that guy is doing just fine, isn't it?

"Unnie, you went house hunting with oppa today, what did he say?" Park Chaeyoung decided it was better to talk about something specific to avoid getting upset again.

No wonder South Korea's birth rate is declining; being a matchmaker is too much of a hassle.

"I didn't say anything, I just went to check on my room."

As Jisoo thought of this, a smile appeared on her lips.

Mingyan's meaning is very clear: he decided on his own room, and it has nothing to do with Lim Nayeon.

Rose stared at the older woman's smile: "Oppa's house really has a room for you."

"Ah."

"I get it, Jisoo unnie, you're really amazing!"

Park Chae-young suddenly realized.

No wonder this older sister isn't in a hurry; she's clearly confident of victory and is waiting for Mingyan to make the decision on her own initiative.

It's so boring to fight over a man. Others fight over him, but in the end, they all have to obediently go home.

Is this the confidence of a childhood sweetheart who becomes the empress?
"What do you understand?"

"Jisoo unnie, go take a shower, I won't bother you~"

Kim Jisoo watched Park Chaeyoung's excited back.

No, what does she even know? ...

"Minjung, we're going to have a new home."

Mingyan shared the good news with her niece, who had just returned from evening practice: that place would also be Kim Minjung's future home.

"Uncle, did you and Jisoo unnie go to look at houses today and make a decision?" Kim Minjung asked curiously. It seems that such a big decision really needs to be made by Kim Jisoo.

Mingyan: I am the head of the family!
The man sat on the sofa, legs crossed: "That's about it, I'll be ready to pay soon."

He doesn't like to dawdle; if he sees something he likes, he'll buy it. He won't lose out or be cheated; it's all for his own enjoyment.

Which set did we go to see?

Kim Minjung was delighted to hear this; who wouldn't want to live in a new house?

Mingyan respected his niece's opinion. He had originally wanted to take leave to go with her, but the little girl refused, trusting her uncle's choice.

“The large, single-level apartment by the river, the one that’s over 240 square meters.” Mingyan briefly described the apartment he had seen to Jin Minzheng, stirring up the girl’s memories.

Yes, it's about three times the size of the house they live in now.

Kim Minjung frowned and thought for a moment: "Ah, I remember now, it's the one with the particularly beautiful view outside the window."

Even river-view apartments vary in quality.

“Yes, I really like the decor there, and Jisoo likes it too.” Mingyan said with a smile, “This way we can move in right away, saving us the trouble of redecorating, which would have wasted a lot of time.”

Men are generally averse to trouble, so it's better to just buy a ready-made one.

Neither he, nor Kim Ji-soo, nor Lim Na-yeon had time to think about decorating the house.

"That house is huge."

"I plan to divide it into four bedrooms, two living rooms, and three bathrooms. There will be three bedrooms and one room will be converted into a study."

Ming said he already has a general plan for his new home.

First of all, the master bedroom must be large, and it should also include a walk-in closet and a bathroom. As for Kim Ji-soo's room, let that guy figure it out himself. Kim Min-jung's room also needs to be large, so that the kids don't feel cramped.

My niece brings her friends over to stay every few days, so a small space won't do.

People, once they earn money, they want to spend it.

"Uncle, how much money do you want to spend?" Kim Minjung remembered that the last time he saw the price, it was an astronomical figure.

Mingyan took out a calculator, typed in a string of zeros, and handed it to the little guy: "Three billion Korean won."

Based on the current exchange rate, it's equivalent to about 23 million RMB. He practically emptied his savings to buy a big house. People with families have to be generous.

"So many zeros, I wonder if I'll ever be able to earn this much money in the future."

Jin Min-woon stuck out his tongue.

She now has a better understanding of money; 3.8 billion won is definitely not a small amount. Many debuted artists may not earn that much money; you have to be very famous to earn that much.

It wouldn't be difficult for Kim Jisoo and Lim Nayeon to earn this money, but it would be much more difficult for Kim Jiwon.

“It’s okay, it doesn’t matter if you don’t earn it. Your uncle will take care of you from now on.” Mingyan patted his niece’s head. “I’m a future movie star, supporting a few more people is no problem.”

Kim Minjung emphasized the word "men" (们) in his voice: "You still have to support my aunts-in-law."

"They might be richer than me in the future."

The earning power of top idols is incredibly terrifying. Twice and BLACKPINK are both showing tremendous momentum right now, and it's possible for them to earn tens or even hundreds of millions over a ten-year career.

“Then let my aunts support the two of us,” Kim Minjung said with a smile.

“If that’s the case, then I won’t try.” Mingyan lay comfortably on the sofa and adjusted his position. “Jisoo and Nayeon are both rich women; they should have more than enough to support me.”

The two girls were upset that they couldn't spend the money, not that they were reluctant to spend it.

Kim Jisoo and Lim Nayeon are similar; they're willing to spend any amount of money on Mingyan.

"Uncle, why did you include Jisoo unnie in this?"

"..."
