Chapter 4: Kang Do-hwan, who loves bad jokes
Kang Do-hwan himself has not yet realized that in Choi Jong-seung's eyes, he is already a top-notch Korean beef that can move.

At the advice of director Lu Shangxun, he decided to stay in the crew and watch the acting of his predecessors.

As a newcomer, performing well once does not mean you will perform well every time. You should seize the opportunity to learn up close.

Choi Jong-seung walked briskly to Kang Do-hwan and asked in a gentle voice:

"Zhao Huanxi, I have work to do at the company. Can I pick you up later?"

"Brother Zhong Sheng, I've been in Peninsula for a year and I know how to take the subway, so I won't bother you."

"How can I do that?" Choi Jong-seung was afraid that Kang Do-hwan would disappear like his own savings, so he said seriously, "You are from JYP Entertainment, and I brought you here, so I have the obligation to send you home, otherwise my conscience will be uneasy!"

Jiang Zhaohuan could guess what Cui Zhongsheng was thinking without having to think.

He was not so low in EQ as to expose the other person's little thoughts. He took out his phone from his pocket and accepted the kindness:

"Yes, then Brother Zhong Sheng, let's exchange contact information, shall we? Also... I will go to the company to sign the contract tomorrow. Do you think 10 o'clock in the morning is okay?"

"Of course! Here, this is my number, don't get it wrong!"

Choi Jong-seung wished he could be on call 24 hours a day, but drafting a suitable contract also took time.

If he didn't have to deal with the mess left by Li Zhenxiu when he returned, he would have been able to discuss the contract with the president tonight.

Tsk, Li Zhenxiu, you bastard, I will definitely make sure you are not in the entertainment industry, go and pursue your love!

After the two exchanged contact information, Kang Do-hwan followed director Roh Sang-hoon obediently and began to observe how senior actors acted in front of the camera.

He just performed without props, so he had a lot of room for free expression.

But if you really want to shoot in front of the camera, your acting must not only be natural, but you must also not go beyond the shooting range, which is a big difficulty.

Moreover, when he was performing in a drama at school, he didn't need to care about the camera at all. The cameraman just took some symbolic photos as a souvenir.

It's not like shooting a TV series, where only a dozen seconds of plot is shot with several shots from various angles.

At this time, in the interrogation room built with real scenes, the scene of the male and female protagonists interrogating the suspect is being filmed.

Seo In Guk, who plays the male lead Lee Hyun, does not have an advantage in appearance, but his acting is very vivid, and his sitting posture alone can well reflect Lee Hyun's character.

Although he said "ridiculous", his expression was different, showing his innate confidence.

This kind of arrogant attitude of not caring about other people's opinions is exactly what the character Li Xian would show.

Assistant Director Kim Jin-won stood next to Kang Do-hwan and asked with a smile:

"Zhao Huanxi, isn't it completely different to watch it from a TV when standing at this angle?"

"It's more immersive on site, and I can learn more acting skills."

Jiang Zhaohuan nodded seriously. He was not interested in the profession of actor at first, but he became interested in it during the process of performing and observing.

It is challenging and interesting to play a role that is completely different from yourself and experience a completely different life.

Kang Do-hwan developed a love for extreme sports when he lived abroad, and he couldn't wait to get a child diver's license when he was just ten years old.

But the challenging nature of extreme sports is completely different from that of actors. The former still needs to be themselves, while the latter needs to become a character in the play.

He couldn't help but take a deep breath, lowered his head, took out his own script, and turned to the first page.

I will be shooting my first scene in my life tomorrow, so I have to read the script several times when I get home tonight.

Moreover, the character of Jung Sun-ho is an elite lawyer, and I feel that I need to search for some reference materials online, otherwise it will be difficult to interpret the eloquence and calmness that an elite should have. Thinking of this, Jiang Zhaohuan silently planned a small goal for himself in his heart, that is - not to compare the acting skills with those of his predecessors, but to constantly surpass himself in the process of acting.

Come on, don’t let people down.
-
At 18:32 in the evening, winter night quietly fell.

Kang Do-hwan, who had been observing the crew for a whole day, finally waited for Choi Jong-seung to come and pick him up.

What puzzled him was that...it was already dark outside, but the drink that Brother Zhong Sheng brought him was actually an iced Americano.

Jiang Zhaohuan, who has lived abroad for a long time, is a little uncomfortable. He doesn't understand the obsession of people in the Peninsula with iced American.

What on earth is so good about this bitter, astringent brown liquid? Can't they just have some milk?

For the sake of Brother Zhong Sheng, Jiang Zhaohuan still took a big sip. The bitterness spreading in his mouth made him frown.

At this moment, my mind was indeed much clearer. I guess the purpose was just to refresh myself.

Cui Zhongsheng, who was used to drinking iced American coffee, took a sip with a normal expression. He adjusted the car navigation while asking:

"Zhaohuan, tell me your address and I'll enter it."

"Yonsei University Sinchon Campus." After Jiang Zhaohuan said the address, he obviously noticed the hesitation of the person next to him. He turned his head and looked at him with some doubt, and asked with concern, "Brother Zhongsheng, what's wrong?"

"You are actually one of the top three?!"

Jiang Zhaohuan reached out and touched his face. He didn't think that he had a face that looked unintelligent. He asked back:

"Do I look stupid?"

"Oh my god, God gave you good looks and height, and now he also gave you brains. To be honest, I'm a little envious."

"Brother Zhong Sheng, you will die if you don't give me the brain."

After the words were spoken, the car fell into silence.

After several seconds, Choi Jong-seung turned his head to look at Kang Do-hwan. He couldn't help but ask:
"Zhaohuan, you are not... joking, are you?"

"Isn't it funny?" Jiang Zhaohuan's sense of humor is strange. This kind of cold joke is actually his preference. He thought of his favorite British joke and asked with interest, "Brother Zhongsheng, do you know the longest word in English?"

Choi Jong-seung slowly parked the car at the solid white line and began racking his brains to think of the English words he knew:
"Watermelon? Grand...father?"

"Aniyo, it's Smiles."

Cui Zhongsheng hadn't discovered the mystery yet. He frowned and retorted:
"Hey, what nonsense are you talking about? Smiles doesn't look like a Grandfather at all, right?"

"Brother Zhong Sheng, you will understand if you spell it carefully."

Spell it out?
Smiles, S…mile…s?

Wait, isn't that what Mile meant?

Choi Jong-seung's expression of serious thinking gradually froze on his face. He only felt that his body temperature dropped rapidly at this moment, even colder than the average temperature in Antarctica.

What kind of uncle-level joke is this? This kid is really... Ah, it's a complete contrast to his handsome face!

Jiang Zhaohuan pursed his lips tightly, looked to the side with a smile in his eyes, and asked:
"Brother Zhong Sheng, isn't it funny?"

"Haha, this is so funny."

　The heroine will appear tomorrow~
