Peninsula 2017: Is the system living in the past?

"Shh..."

Upon seeing the gesture Jiang Xingchen made, Ham Eun-jung swallowed back the words that were about to come out.

Out of trust in Park Jiyeon and Park Hyomin.

This also stemmed from Jiang Xingchen's actions after they met.

She suppressed her doubts.

"Is the next scene starting immediately?"

"Inside."

"Then let's keep up this good momentum and get today's shooting done. Leave the rest to me."

We need to start filming immediately after confirmation.

Jiang Xingchen then temporarily abandoned the idea of ​​explaining.

He reached out and gently patted Ham Eun-jung's arm twice, then took a step back and checked her hairstyle.

After confirming that everything was alright, he reached out and took the water bottle from Xia Minying's hand again, opened the lid to reveal the straw inside.

Take a sip to moisten your throat.

Ham Eun-jung reached out to take the water bottle, took a small sip, and then handed it back to Ha Min-young.

"These things can be left to Min-young."

"It's no big deal, I'm your assistant now anyway."

Jiang Xingchen said nonchalantly, then glanced at Xia Minying, "Minying-ssi, please take care of Eun-jung for now. I have some things to take care of."

"Designer, this is my job."

Faced with Jiang Xingchen's arrangement, Xia Minying responded with some distress.

Then, she bowed slightly and watched him turn and leave.

to be frank.

Aside from the time when director Lee Jae-jin was talking about Ham Eun-jung's hair, it sounded like Kang Sung-chen wasn't considering things from her artist's perspective.

At other times.

From the moment we met this morning until now.

He did everything very well.

He maintained a good relationship with Ham Eun-jung on set.

It was only because of his mystery that Xia Minying felt a little afraid of him.

"Min-young, I'm going to get ready."

Ham Eun-jung didn't notice her odd behavior and handed back the script she had just been reading.

She only came to her senses when she saw the script handed to her.

He quickly reached out and took it.

Then, she subconsciously glanced in the direction Jiang Xingchen had left.

...

...

Outside the film set.

A smoking area was set up specifically for filming.

Smoke swirled, obscuring visibility.

Lee Hwa-soo, the manager MBK Entertainment assigned to Ham Eun-jung, is currently smoking here, feeling frustrated.

The root of frustration.

It's Jiang Xingchen, of course.

I initially thought he was just a crazy rich second-generation fan who appeared out of nowhere, but it turns out he also has the identity of designer Mr. K.

Although the company just contacted him yesterday.

Ask him to pay attention to the circles Ham Eun-jung has been associating with lately.

If there is any news about "Mr. K", report it immediately.

As an agent, handling this is no big deal at all.

As for leaving for several hours, that was also a deliberate arrangement by the other party.

But I never expected to run into him on set today.

That look in their eyes when they met.

It immediately brought back some unpleasant memories.

"Hey, he doesn't look like someone who's been through the wringer!"

crunch...

Just then, he heard the stiff sound of the hinges of the smoking area door turning.

Turning around, Jiang Xingchen was standing at the door.

They didn't seem to intend to come in.

"Li Hexiu-xi, shall we talk?"

Jiang Xingchen looked at Li Hexiu.

Although it was phrased as an inquiry, it carried an air of absolute authority.

After saying that, he turned and left.

Seeing that clean and neat turn, Li Hexiu suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Especially when you feel the gazes directed at you from the surroundings.

It even darkened several shades.

As he watched the receding figure, he gritted his teeth, stuck the cigarette butt in the special sand, and quickly followed after it.

One minute later.

A relatively quiet corner.

"Designer, is there something you need from me?"

Li Hexiu, who came with Jiang Xingchen, was scrutinized by him from head to toe for a while before finally speaking up.

"I just want to ask you about some things."

"What?"

"The manager, who should have been on set taking care of the artists, was instead seen leisurely enjoying coffee with people at the Atlanta Cafe in Nonhyeon-dong."

"I don't understand what you're saying."

"It's okay if you don't understand. Kim Kwang-soo should have given instructions on this, or your assistant who met with you added to it based on their own understanding."

Atlanta Cafe in Nonhyeon-dong.

President Kim Kwang-soo.

assistant.

instruct.

The two simple sentences caused Li Hexiu's expression to change again.

If there's a possibility of being spotted by an acquaintance in a coffee shop, then the following situations are not so simple.

"Now that I'm here, you can take this opportunity to report to the company."

Jiang Xingchen ignored the change in his expression and continued, "They probably want you to keep an eye on what's going on with 'Mr. K,' right?"

"I'm just a company employee."

Li Hexiu opened her mouth.

With these few simple words, he became increasingly confused about the situation.

It felt like I was completely seen through.

"That's right, company employees should indeed listen to the company."

Jiang Xingchen narrowed her eyes slightly, and her expression changed.

She then smiled and patted his arm twice.

Without saying a word, he nimbly turned and left.

"You called me over just to talk for a couple of minutes?"

"What about the threat?"

Li Hexiu, who remained where she was, only came to her senses a while after Jiang Xingchen left.

I have a strange feeling for no reason.

What Jiang Xingchen mentioned was somewhat unexpected.

Whether it happened or not!

He stood there lost in thought for a while before returning to the vicinity of the filming location.

Noticing his return, Jiang Xingchen nodded to him.

The unusual interaction between the two was noticed by their assistant, Xia Minying, who was standing beside them.

But I also knew that I shouldn't ask questions I shouldn't ask, so I just kept a slight curiosity to myself.

......

Busy times always seem to fly by.

Before we knew it, it was late at night again.

Thanks to the good condition of the lead actors, filming wrapped up relatively early today.

"Manager Li, you should go back now!"

"Eun-jung and Min-young, take my car back."

Inside the dressing room, Ham Eun-jung had changed back into her casual clothes and was tidying up other odds and ends.

Jiang Xingchen sat on the sofa and made simple arrangements for her trip back later.

Li Hexiu had no objection to this.

But I still checked the arrangements for tomorrow morning.

"You still need to pick up Eun-jung in the morning, I have other things to take care of."

"Yes, I understand."

Hearing him say that, Lee Hwa-soo stopped talking nonsense, went to Ham Eun-jung's side to confirm the time for the next morning, and then left by pushing open the door.

Xia Minying, who was arranged to ride in a luxury car, stood there for a while and made a decision from the bottom of her heart.

The ride in a Maybach should be very comfortable.

But it was clearly not a place she should be sitting.

Besides, who knows, the two of them might have something else to discuss!

So she grabbed her handbag from the chair and said to Ham Eun-jung and Kang Sung-chen, "Um, the route home for senior Heo-soo happens to pass by my house, so I'd better take the van instead, so that the designer won't have to take a detour."

After saying that, he hurriedly ran out.

Clang...

After she left, the dressing room fell silent.

Ham Eun-jung had finished getting ready by then.

A few minutes later.

In the back seat of a luxury car.

After getting into the car, Jiang Xingchen picked up a bag and handed it to Xian Enjing.

"What is this?"

"A gift to mark our meeting."

......
