Chapter Sixty-Eight: Working Through the Night
im in a car at the front gate of the villa and conveyed his second brother's message to him.Ji Jingyuan nodded, watching Park Jae-hyun proactively get out of the car and put his luggage in the trunk....Soon Na-eun quickly typed in the code on the locker door and then gently pushed it open, stepping into the Apk dormitory.
Her gaze swept across the floor and shoe rack by the door, then she let out a relaxed sigh. It seemed that the members and manager who weren't at the dorm before hadn't returned yet.
She carried a plastic bag and changed her shoes at the door. Yin Pumyi, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, didn't speak after seeing Sun Na-eun return. She just stared with her eyes fixed on the door.
Yin Pumei had no makeup on, her hair stood up and was tied into a skyward braid at the back of her head. She curled her legs up and sank onto the sofa, looking quite relaxed.
Son Na-eun walked in after changing her shoes, and the two of them made eye contact.
"Naeun-ah, welcome back."
Yin Pu Mei took the initiative to greet, her facial expression was normal.
"Go in, Oni."
When she returned, Sun Na-eun was still smiling uncontrollably. Now, her expression management was excellent; there was nothing out of the ordinary. She took off her mask and nodded towards Kim Min-hee, shaking her plastic bag lightly and casually saying, "I bought a lot of things, so it took some time."
Yin Pim's eyes involuntarily turned to the plastic bag, then back to Sun Na-eun's face, which was being made up. Her gaze darted back and forth between the two.
“I'm a little tired today, I'll go back to my room first, Oni.”
Sun Na-eun chuckled lightly, nodding at her older sister before stepping back into the room with light steps and softly closing the door.
Aek's dormitory is a shared room for two people with bunk beds. Sun Na-eun sleeps on the lower bunk, and her roommate, Wu Xiaorong, is not currently in the dorm.
After closing the door, she first listened intently to the sounds outside. Finding nothing unusual, she then let out a sigh of relief.
With a few light steps, she tossed the plastic bag to the side and then leaped onto the bed with all her might.
She picked up a pink bear doll from her bedside, hugging it tightly and covering her face with it. She squeezed very hard, almost as if she were trying to strangle the plush toy.
Sun Naeun's face was buried in the teddy bear's belly, rubbing it constantly, her legs also swaying back and forth, looking very excited. She occasionally couldn't help but let out an excited low cry, but because her mouth was covered by the teddy bear, it turned into a muffled whimper.
The other plushies on the bed sat still, their shiny black eyes fixed on Sun Na-eun, as if wondering what had gotten into her.
After a long while, her mood finally calmed down. She let out a long sigh, rolled over in bed, and looked at the bunk above. Her big eyes sparkled, her lips were pursed, and she rubbed the bracelet on her right wrist with her left hand, lost in thought.
Soon after Sun Na-eun returned, her manager brought back the other members. The dormitory was suddenly lively again, and she secretly felt fortunate that she had come back early.
Oh, right, Jung Eun-ji hasn't come back yet, she's still filming on set...
……
"A smile gives me a sunny feeling, yeah, just like that, great..."
The two people moved closer together. The woman leaned in, her hand resting on her hip. Yes, that's good...
Give me an acting gesture, with eyes that have that... 《Please Answer 1997》YunJae looking at the female lead's eyes is really good. OK, Nice, very good.
“The female model's expression is more natural, don't be so stiff!”
The woman's eyes should respond, looking directly into the other person's eyes. If there's anything embarrassing about it, she shouldn't hold back when filming commercials
"…………"
At this time, Chi Jingyuan is filming an advertisement in a photography studio on the second floor underground of a building in Samseong-dong, Gangnam District, Seoul.
A white sheet covered half the floor and walls, and the bright lights made the entire photography studio as bright as day.
This ad campaign focuses on taking photoshoots, primarily involving changing various outfits and posing in different ways to capture numerous images. Usually, a camera wouldn't be necessary for this type of shoot.
He was already quite good at shooting commercials, and his acting skills honed through "Please Answer" during this period have improved significantly.
This kind of case was no difficulty for Chi Jingyuan at all, he wrote it with ease.
However, the female partner in the collaboration, Kong Seung-yeon, seemed a bit out of place. Her performance was somewhat awkward, and her expressions of emotion and gestures did not satisfy the advertising director. The shooting progress wasn't fast.
Chi Jingyuan had just arrived and exchanged greetings with her. He also took a good look at her.
Though Kong Seung Yeon isn't very tall, at around 165 centimeters, her figure is quite well-proportioned. The finished photoshoots look very comfortable and it's no wonder ** chose her to shoot advertisements.
The features look very natural, coupled with a soft oval face, the appearance is still quite good. It's a pretty suitable face for an actor.
Chi Jingyuan only felt that although she had good looks, she lacked some features that would leave a deep impression at first glance.
It can be seen that Kong Seung-yeon is a little nervous. She doesn't have much experience shooting commercials, and under the director's continuous dissatisfaction, her expression has become somewhat out of control.
...She was so close to him that Ji Jingyuan could clearly see the sweat on her forehead, and hear her quick breaths softly hitting his face, making it itchy.
"Take a break first. Jingyuan performed very well, that's the feeling we want. The woman should keep searching for her feelings."
After working continuously for a long time, the advertising director announced that he would take a temporary break. The nerves of the surrounding staff instantly relaxed, and the originally quiet set began to have sounds rise and fall.
It's past three in the morning now, but they are still working here. However, this kind of work schedule is quite common in the Peninsula entertainment industry, so there's nothing to complain about.
After the announcement of the break, Ji Jingyuan bowed to several staff members and directors on site before returning to his position. Park Bo-gum promptly handed him a glass of iced water.
"I'll pass on the water for now, could you bring me a cup of coffee" Ji Jingyuan felt somewhat fatigued, but judging by the situation, filming was likely to continue for a while longer. He needed to perk himself up.
"Got it," Park Jae-hyun nodded and walked towards the coffee machine by the wall.
Recently, due to the popularity of "Reply 1997," Park Jung-won's personal schedule has noticeably increased. Park Bo-gum, who is both his manager and assistant, is already feeling overwhelmed.
The ** company has already found two assistants for him, they will be able to start work in a few days.
Park Jae-hyeon came from the second brother's side, so his trustworthiness goes without saying. He's in charge of important tasks like coordinating schedules and negotiating with the production team (PD). The other assistants mainly focus on taking care of Park Ji-won's daily life, such as getting him a cup of coffee.
And driving him to such an important date, only Park can handle it well.
But once Chi Jingyuan gets his driver's license, he can be relieved of this heavy responsibility.
Ji Jingyuan sat in a chair, drinking coffee and watching Kong Shengyan who kept bowing and apologizing to people on the field. He felt a little sentimental for a moment.
First release on Traditional Novels Networks very well. Sometimes when she's doing makeup, she even has the thought 'how can someone like this debut' 。But after Yuan had several makeovers, the girl who never chased stars actually felt a fan's...
