Peninsula: The Best Actor Begins with a Breakup

Chapter 30 Can I Refuse?
"Kim Ji-won..."

He swore clearly that he didn't want to hear this name.

It’s hard to say that I’m afraid, but I do feel a little guilty. After all, when we broke up, we didn’t even meet in person. It was settled with just a phone call.

Tsk, I wonder if Kim Min-woon can carry such a big pot. The little guy is still growing.

"Yes, Mingyanxi, you performed very well in 'Descendants of the Sun,'" screenwriter Lin Shangchun said excitedly, "You are my dream male and female protagonists."

Director Jin Najing nodded in agreement.

The popularity of "Descendants of the Sun" has not yet passed. If it is announced at this time that the cast of their new drama is Mingyan and Kim Ji-won, it will definitely attract many fans, including overseas popularity.

Kill two birds with one stone, no, it's simply killing multiple birds with one stone.

Mingyan had no choice but to pin his hopes on Jin Zhiyuan: "Um... have you contacted the female lead?"

No ex-girlfriend would be willing to work with her ex-boyfriend on a romance drama.

Big sister Zhiyuan, stand up!

"got engaged."

"What did she say?"

"Kim Ji-won's response was that if you were the male lead, then there would be no problem."

Ah Xi Ba, for some reason, Ming Yan always felt that this sentence had a hint of revenge. The expression on Jin Zhiyuan's face when she spoke had already appeared in his mind.

He clenched his little fists tightly, so cute.

Although that sister has played many cold and icy roles that seem difficult to mess with, in real life, Kim Ji-won is a very introverted and shy girl.

When they first appeared in "The Heirs", Mingyan and Krystal quickly became familiar with each other, but Kim Ji-won would just stare blankly by herself when she was on standby and rarely joined in the fun.

And then... no more.

At the beginning, he actually didn't have any feelings for the introverted girl. The two of them knew each other at the end of 13, and their relationship had always been lukewarm.

He clearly stated that he had other girlfriends in the meantime, but they were all fleeting. In some cases, they broke up without even knowing about it, including Kim Ji-soo and Lim Nayeon.

Before filming "Descendants of the Sun", it was because of his and Kim Eun-sook's recommendation that Kim Ji-won got the opportunity to interview for the role of Yoon Myung-joo.

Mingyan is never stingy with the people around him and will help whenever he can.

He doesn't care, including those nominal girlfriends, some of whom just want to rely on him to get into the circle of Kim Eun-sook or even Zhao In-sung.

Or, in other words, this is the case for most people. Even after breaking up, they don't feel anything. Everyone gets what they want.

Mingyan still felt that she was at a disadvantage because such a handsome guy was slept with by someone else.

You should charge money.

After the filming of the TV series officially started, Kim Ji-won expressed her gratitude to the guy who helped her to make the connection, and then she fell into his clutches. The two confirmed their relationship around August or September 15.

Hirai Momo: I just want to say that the CP I support is really!
Speaking of which, Kim Ji-won is Ming Yan's ex-girlfriend with whom he spent the longest time, about a year or so. She is a good girl.

Life is like a play, but people cannot be trapped in the play forever.

Sometimes, it is easier to see the problem from a different perspective.

"Writer Lin, Director Jin, can you let me reconsider this?"

Mingyan came back to his senses, thought for a moment, and replied.

"No problem, Mingyanxi, you will always be our first choice." Screenwriter Lin Shangchun was very humble. There was no other way, because Kim Eun-sook behind him was a big shot in this industry.

What's more, from what Kim Ji-won said, she wants to be tied to Ming Yan.

If none of them can be negotiated, "Fight for My Way" might really become third-rate.

Mingyan politely saw the screenwriter and director off, then headed towards Kim Eun-sook's office. Honestly, he was quite touched by their attitude; after all, they were genuinely there for him. This was the first time he'd received such treatment in his three-plus years of debut.

"Dang Dang Dang."

Mingyan knocked on the door and walked in without waiting for an answer.

Jin Enshu didn't even look up: "Why, have you met with screenwriter Lin Shangchun and director Jin Najing?"

"Ah."

"Then why do you look so worried? This drama is very suitable for you." Kim Eun-sook analyzed that with the popularity of the CP of Mingyan and Kim Ji-won and the not-bad quality of the script, the performance of "Fight for My Way" will not be bad.

For an actor, this is a great opportunity.

Ming Yan got straight to the point: "Teacher, do you know that the heroine is Kim Ji-won?"

"I know. If it were someone else, I might not want you to play the role." Before Jin Enshu finished speaking, her eyes widened: "You kid, didn't you break up with Jin Zhiyuan again?"

She knew the character of her students, but those things were not a big deal in the entertainment industry.

Young man, what's wrong with being a little romantic? How many of the big names in Chungmuro, from directors to actors, are clean?

I've had a few relationships, but I've never messed around in bars or nightclubs. To some extent, I can be called a role model of morality.

"Cough cough..."

Mingyan coughed twice in a pretentious manner.

"You, I thought you really changed this time. Ji-won is such a good girl. She is two years older than you and more reliable. Didn't you get along well with her?" Jin Eun-sook was disappointed.

If it were someone else, Kim Eun-sook wouldn't bother to say anything.

However, she saw Mingyan and Kim Ji-won being so affectionate on the set when they were filming "Descendants of the Sun". The woman is indeed a good girl.

Quiet and pretty.

How can they break up just like that? Young people nowadays are so unreasonable.

"Teacher, I..." Mingyan opened his mouth, but suddenly didn't know where to start.

Jin Enshu waved her hand, interrupting the student and saying, "You don't want to act in this drama because of the breakup?"

"That's not it."

Mingyan felt a little embarrassed to talk about his relationship problems in front of the teacher.

Having said that, although he has several ex-girlfriends, there is really no one he needs to hide from. At least while the relationship lasted, he was absolutely responsible and serious.

Breaking up only means that there is no need for two people to get along in an intimate way, but it does not mean that they cannot be friends.

Kim Ji-won is a bit of an exception.

Mingyan sensed the danger, so he decisively used Jin Minyao as an excuse to break up. It would be a bit guilty if they met.

"You know, from a work perspective, it's a good choice for you to work on a drama with Kim Ji-won," Kim Eun-sook said.

Ming Yan forced a smile and said, "Teacher, I understand the truth, but I'm a little worried."

"Why are you worried? Have you done anything to offend others?"

"No, I'm still single after the breakup."

"Give me a reason."

"I'm afraid she'll hit me."

"Then let's fight."
