In the afternoon, a shooting base of SBS TV station in Yongdempo District, Seoul.

Perhaps because the weather was a bit cold and the wind was quite strong, Kim Jong-ming hid in a studio on the set of "The Heirs" with Krystal. The TVN TV crew and the well-known people here instantly surrounded the space that originally belonged to the main creators of the TV series.

“Why can’t the oppa go?”

Just as the second male lead Kim Woo-bin was sitting in another corner of the set, staring at the other side in a daze, a familiar female voice suddenly sounded in his ears. When he turned around, he saw that the second female lead Kim Ji-won was better known in the crew.

"Am I?" Jin Woo-bin's horse face immediately smiled, and then quickly pulled out another chair from the pile of props next to him and took the initiative to wipe the dust on it. "Of course I have already gone to say hello, but the seniors and everyone from the TV station are crowded there. I am a newcomer, and after the greetings, I must quickly give up the seat... to sit down."

"Thank you, oppa." Kim Ji-won thanked politely, then sat down and chatted with the other party. "I'm actually the same, and I was there all the time, and I've been reading the script with Krystal for an afternoon to hide from the strong wind. However, when Senior Kim Jong-ming came, he squeezed too many people, so I felt embarrassed to continue to spend some time there, so I could only give up my seat to the seniors."

"There is no way, a cheater-like character is always so approachable. Who doesn't want to take the opportunity to touch it? Then we newcomers have to abdicate and give in to the virtuous."

"Oppa means that Senior Kim Jong-ming's life is like opening a cheater?"

"No." Kim Woo-bin shook his head quickly. "It's no point to talk about those things now. I mean that this senior himself is the cheater of many Korean artists."

"Although this is fresh, it's...appropriate!" Kim Ji-won raised her head slightly, as if she was recalling something. "Isn't Senior Kim Soo-hyun riding the wind and waves because she has a good teacher on this line? But this is true in the entertainment industry. Our president told me that for a newcomer, the biggest reliance is never on acting and personal character, but on connections. Holding the right person tightly and holding the right thigh is the most important thing. It's like Senior Lee Kwang-soo from our company, who entered "Running Man" to meet Senior Yoo Jae-suk, Senior Kim Jong-kook, and this before. That day was simply terrible, but now he has been an Asian prince in just a few years."

"This is a true example." Kim Woo-bin nodded convincingly. "I used to walk on the show with Kwang Soo, and I was a person who shared hardships. Now I am already in the sky and the earth... In fact, many people in "Runningman" are like this. Haha, because I met Yoo Jae-suk early, my development was not broken after the service. And so was even more so. She was so embarrassed at the beginning, so it was useless to take off her clothes. If it weren't for being suddenly appreciated by Yoo Jae-suk and the PDFs of the SBS TV Variety Show, I'm afraid she would still be a typical bad woman character..."

At this point, Kim Woo-bin, who was quick-talking, suddenly stopped talking. He realized that he was quick-talking for a moment and was already a little distorted. If Kim Ji-won was a little bit ill-hearted, then he would be in big trouble immediately, let alone Bai Chang-soo, is Song Ji-hyo now the one who can comment at will?

And let’s talk about this kind of topic in front of a young female artist, even though the two have been together for the past few months.

However, Kim Ji-won smiled slightly when she heard this, and she continued the topic without hesitation: "Compared with male artists, the ups and downs of female artists in this circle are indeed more dramatic... After all, no matter where, the real power of this society is still men, and for men, it is no wonder that women in the entertainment industry have some natural capital."

"Hmph, it's not just an unspoken rule, isn't there another saying, saying that he is dedicating himself to art?" On the other hand, after letting go, Jin Woo-bin, who was holding his arms, finally couldn't control his broken mouth on the horse's face.

"The audience and the media are also controlled by men." Kim Ji-won also hit the nail on the head. "If Senior Song Ji-hyo had not had the negative bonus of President Bai Chang-soo, he might have become really popular... The so-called audience and the media hated her, but it was not Song Ji-hyo, but a woman who was not clear about the underworld bosses. Now the audience and the media liked her, half of them certainly liked her performance, but the other half also liked Yoo Jae-suk, Kim Jong-kook, and the good partner of the senior there?"

"This sentence seems a bit heartbroken and biased." As for this, Kim Woo-bin, who raised this topic and seemed a little cynical, shrank a little for a moment.

"Maybe a bit biased, but there is absolutely nothing to be punished." Kim Ji-won held her cheek with a relaxed look on her face and smiled at the other party. Although she still looked small and cute, she made Kim Woo-bin feel a strange sense of soberness. "Like oppa, I entered the industry very early, and then I stayed in the lower or non-mainstream circles for a long time. I only found the opportunity to enter the mainstream circle recently, and were still in the rising period... At this stage, it is normal to feel more feelings about this aspect, after all, we have seen more things with our own eyes."

"Is that true?" Kim Woo-bin became a little embarrassed, not knowing how to discuss those 'things'.

"Yes, I don't know how you male artists are at this stage, but female artists are on a threshold." Kim Ji-won stared at the other party's face and said with a smile. "Standing on this threshold, looking around, you will find that there are many people behind you who are looking forward to stepping into this threshold, even at any cost. In front of you, there are many people who have already entered, trying every means to think about how to get out, at any cost... In the middle, you must be cautious."

"So...can I understand that you are jealous of krystal?"

"How could it be that you are not jealous?" Kim Ji-won was still straightforward. "These things that need to be careful for us female artists but can affect our lifelong life are simply a joke to her, but my jealousy has been exhausted long ago in "The Counterattack of Short Legs". And when you get along with each other, you will know that Krystal is indeed a very good girl, and of course it is not easy to mess with... However, if you mention this old thing again, I feel that Senior Kim Jong-ming is more classy and more rare!"

"How to say it?"

"How can I say it? After entering the circle, I saw the dirty and virtues of the big guys who looked glamorous before, but I still haven't heard much about this senior. It's still clean and approachable to walk all the way through this mud, and it's really a natural big guy!"

"I can only say... it's all up to the peers." Jin Woo-bin's horse face squeezed a bitter smile. "The company has also paved the way for me recently, and I have also seen many seniors and big names in private..."

"But who knows?" Kim Ji-won suddenly shook her head and denied her praise. "It may be that the height of others is too high. We can't understand the right and wrong of that level at all... Maybe this person behind his back is really a person who is a person who is cold-hearted and difficult to get along with!"

"I……"

Just as Jin Woo-bin wanted to continue talking, suddenly, the autumn wind that had already been too far-reaching suddenly became strong. A strong wind swept over, and the dust and fallen leaves rolled towards the two of them. Even the few leaves left on the trees beside were rolled in with branches and branches...

By the way, these two are handsome men and beautiful women, and they are all about faces. At this moment, they suddenly had a mouthful of dirt, and the thought of revealing each other and getting to know each other was gone in an instant, so they had to get up and go back to make up.

At the same time, in the studio on the other end of the set, Kim Jong-ming and Krystal had to pause the shooting, waiting for the strange wind that broke through the studio to blew over. When the wind just slowed down, as the actors ran back to put on makeup like flying, Kim Jong-ming suddenly had an enlightenment flashed in his heart... These people squeezed here, not only to hide from the wind or watch the fun. They should have known in advance that they were coming to accompany Krystal to perform, so they put on makeup early, hoping to make a comedy in front of themselves and the screenwriter.

But what do you mean? Although these people are indeed very hard-working, Kim Jong-ming, who has been prepared for a long time, may not let them get what they want.

"By the way." Kim Jong-ming took his senses and simply stopped interacting with Krystal, and turned to the top character on the set, Kim Eun-sook, the screenwriter of "The Heirs". "I heard that the screenwriter Kim Eun-sook wrote a lot of plots for this guest appearance, which will not affect the main plot, right? Then I can't afford it."

"How could that happen?" Kim Eun-sook sat up again while lifting the dust on her head. Of course, a screenwriter, she would not care about not having makeup on. "It is an honor to have a movie emperor who can come to play a guest role. The plot is roughly as mentioned when we talked just now. Krystal's second-generation chaebol lady Li Baona celebrated her birthday. At first I thought my family and friends had forgotten it, but his brother came directly to the school to have a birthday surprise for her, which took three to four days to shoot. But Zhong Ming, don't you know whether you have enough time?"

"You have to be more affordable." Kim Jong-ming looked at Krystal who was staring at her, but laughed directly. "I hacked her birthday today. You can't hide her birthday in the TV series... But, is there any specific statement about the role? Is it the only one extra character to join? Will this be too stiff?"

"Of course not." Kim Eun-sook had prepared a temporary script he had made overnight from a pile of things under her feet. "In addition to the characters that were originally available in the school, there is also a setting for your fiancée, and a person who came with you and wanted to use your sister's birthday to curry favor with your business partner, and... "

Kim Jong-ming nodded repeatedly, looking thoughtful and serious... Well, he is really thinking.

"Are there anyone chosen these roles?" After finally letting the other party introduce him, Kim Jong-ming asked again.

"Well...what do you think?" Kim Eun-sook seemed to have understood the other party's meaning.

"I'll invite you on the spot!" Kim Jong-ming smiled slightly jokingly. "Isn't this a variety show? Live invitation is the most common and popular scene in variety shows."

"Mr. Kim Jong-ming is really good at joking." Kim Eun-sook almost laughed like a flower when she heard this. "The highlight of the invitations in the variety show is that everyone doesn't know whether the guests will come. And in our TV series circle, which actor will not give you face? SBS TV station has put down his face this time and let the TVN TV station people come to the set!"

"Hey, Screenwriter Kim can't say that." Kim Jong-ming smiled. "I'm not a variety show rookie, why are you so unaware of it? Of course, I am very grateful to the people in the TV series circle for giving face, but there are always some real big actors who are not sure about me, right?"

"A real big actor? Mr. Kim Jong-ming wants to invite those from his company, right?" The director next to him finally made a statement at this time, which was considered to have got rid of the image of an invisible person. There was no way. In South Korea, it was such a trick to cooperate with famous screenwriters to shoot TV series.

"The company doesn't count!" Jin Zhongming shook his head quickly and took out his cell phone. "What he wants is a candidate he is not sure about, and what he wants is the stimulation that he may be slapped in the face in public!"

The atmosphere immediately came to the studio, and even Krystal looked at his brother's phone with curiosity... Well, everyone was curious. After all, there were not many people who could remain reserved in front of Kim Jong-ming these days. They either rely on their seniority or remain independent in their careers.

Of course, if you think about it carefully, it seems that this is not the case, because the national conditions of South Korea are here. The more blurred the boundaries are, the more you have to divide the profession into three or six or nine levels and 28 levels according to the unspoken rules. Of course, artists are the first to be affected. For example, Kim Woo-bin, who has a horse-faced debuted as a model in 2008, but after playing a supporting role in a TV series in 2011, he was considered an actor. Last year, a role in a role was recognized by the circle and became a "newcomer". Looking back, guest appearances in a TV series do indeed lose prices for a "real famous actor". If there is a naughty young man who regards himself as a movie actor and doesn't come, it will seem that Kim Jong-ming is aggressive.

However, these messy thoughts disappeared immediately after Kim Jong-ming spoke to his phone. Soon everyone understood what he said was "not sure".

"Yubotiyou, Xiaozhu?"

This is Kim Jong-ming's first sentence after the phone is connected.

Han Hyo-joo, of course, is a very suitable actor. In fact, this one may have been the best actress in Korea in the TV series. Park Shin Hye, the starring actor of "The Heirs", was not enough to watch in front of her, so if she could come, she would definitely be competent... But, so, it is said that it was "once"! At this moment, in the autumn of 2013, this former young TV series actor was already one of the nominees for the Best Actress of the Big Jong, and it seems to be the most popular candidate.

The so-called present is different from the past, she is talking about.

You know, women are still very sensitive to this kind of thing. Yoon Eun Hye took a video and proud of her identity and started to design a costume design. Her TV series is basically for three days and two days to spread the Internet. Kim Tae-hee was like this from the beginning. She kept shooting advertisements under the title of a highly educated goddess. On average, she couldn't come to a work for two years. "Introduction to Architecture" felt even more lawless afterwards, and she didn't look like she was involved in a TV series at all. The most exaggerated one is Jun Ji-hyun. She just announced that she had taken on a TV series and immediately made the headlines of Yonhap News Agency. Some fans ran outside the Ube building to protest publicly and submitted a petition saying that the company's arrangement completely ignored her qualifications and grades, which was an insult to her and was also admirable...

To put it bluntly, this is the case in the Korean entertainment industry. The class labeling is too obvious. Of course, you can get down after going up, but first of all, it is resources. In fact, most people don’t want to get down after going up!

By the same token, Han Hyo-joo is now in the movie queen, and she is still in the most critical golden public relations period in the last week. But you asked her to spend three or four days to come... It is a campus comedy of urban wealthy love... Well, it is such a TV series! In short, you asked someone to come to play a temporary role in a TV series! Moreover, this is not to help you, Kim Jong-ming, who is an old partner and of a high-end person, but to serve you, a sister who has just returned from campus and is still a newcomer to the TV series... What do you think about it?

"I should refuse, right?" Jin Woo-bin, who rushed over after finishing his makeup, asked in a low voice in the corner outside the studio.

"It should be coming?" Kim Ji-won's opinion was completely opposite.

People who have combined the two values ​​have come to this completely opposite judgment. In a sense, what Kim Jong-ming said before, "What he wants is the stimulation that he may be slapped in the face in public" seems to be true.

"How long does it take?" After Jin Zhongming finished talking about the situation, he seemed a little surprised when he turned on the hands-free phone, and then asked with a slightly careful question.

"Three or four days... are you free?" Jin Zhongming didn't seem to know that the other party had nominated for the Best Actress Award or something, nor did he know that the whole Big Bell Award was about to officially open in one week, and he seemed to have completely failed to understand the other party's implicit attitude in this question.

"Oh!" A slightly sudden response rang out from the other end of the phone, and then there was a silence.

The studio was silent, and everyone was waiting to watch the show... I have to say that this strange variety show brought by the third female female lead Ms. Cheng Xiujing in the crew is really interesting.

"I understand." After a while, the voice came from the hands-free phone again. "Today is Krystal's birthday. Are you celebrating her birthday in this way, right?"

"That's right!" Jin Zhongming smiled. "Ermao is right next to him..."

"Oni..." Krystal rolled his eyes, smiled slightly, and shouted softly.

"Happy birthday, Miss Ermao." The female voice on the other end of the phone couldn't help laughing. "Since it's for our Miss Ermao, I will of course go there. I remember that the set of SBS is concentrated in Yongdengpu District, right?"

"Yes." Kim Jong-ming turned his head and looked at the main creators of the "Heirs" crew beside him, and then looked at Krystal, with a stronger smile on his face. "I'll ask the crew to email you the script and arrive early tomorrow."

"Then we'll see you tomorrow." Han Xiaozhu was simply.

"You won." Kim Woo-bin shook his head with some emotion. "I don't know if I should admire Senior Han Hyo-joo's decision or..."

"Do you still admire the strength of the person in front of you?" Jin Ji-won was brave. Even though this place was not in the other corner of the set before, she dared to say what everyone was thinking while everyone was paying attention to it... Of course, she said it in a low voice.

Jin Yubin, with a horse-faced face, shook his head again, but did not dare to touch it.

"Actually, I'm a little sure of Hyo Joo." On the phone, Kim Jong-ming explained to Kim Eun-sook with a smile. "So next time, I have to find a real big name... Senior, actor, and an actor who is recognized as more powerful than me. I hope he can slap in the face in public!"

Kim Eun-sook laughed dryly, but she didn't dare to interfere.

"It's not Senior Choi Min-zhi, right?" Someone interrupted without knowing his life.

"No, no... I said I won't look for people from our cube company." Kim Jong-ming smiled while fiddling with his phone. "Of course, I said so because Senior Choi Min-sik is filming a movie. He will definitely be a bad face when he asks him to come!"

"Actually... I think people like Senior Choi Min-sik will be very easy to talk to as long as they have a friendship." In the corner outside the studio, the male and female second-year-olds in this TV series are starting to continue again, and this time the guess is Kim Ji-won. "Actors such as movie heroes, as long as they have time, they should be very proud of their face, right?"

"You don't know this, right?" Kim Woo-bin finally caught the other party's childish idea and immediately explained in a low voice. "If Senior Kim Jong-ming was just a newcomer just like us, then considering that he is a student of Senior An Sung-ki, these senior actors would definitely be easy to talk to. Because that would be called seniors and approachable. But now? Senior Kim Jong-ming himself is also a big actor and a big actor! At this time, men's pride will prompt them to care more about these things... Not to mention, this is a summoning in an informal variety show. It feels too bad to call it by a phone call."

"The pride of men?" As always, Kim Ji-won still chose to refute this time. "The reason is correct, but it still depends on people... In today's Korean entertainment industry, who dares to pretend to be a man's poem in front of this senior who is calling?! Even if there is, he has been tamed by him in the past seven or eight years."

Kim Woo-bin immediately felt a little embarrassed, but as usual, he did not refute.

"Yubo-Taiyou... Did you make the wrong call? Who are you? Isn't this the phone of Senior Lee Byung-hun?" At this moment, Kim Jong-ming had already connected the second bucket of phone calls. "It's not that Senior Lee Min-jung, it's not the sound like it? Who am I? Is the phone not displayed? I am Kim Jong-ming."

As soon as he finished speaking, the female voice on the opposite side became panicked, which made Jin Zhongming unable to help but raise his eyebrows. Krystal, who was beside him, also made his eyebrows into a graphic shape. Jiong Xiujing arrived as promised, but the old fried dough sticks in the studio still looked as usual and silent.

Another good show!
Chapter completed!
