tlights on both sides of the road and the clear but somewhat lonely footsteps.The screen on the phone darkened and went to the next page, showing a clip of Ji Jingyuan and the teachers teaching the me..."The SBS Gayo Daejun always has to come up with some gimmicks every year, and this year's gimmick is this long VCR and the song we're going to record in a few days."

“This time the VCR's overall meaning is that several idols playing roles are looking for ways to warm everyone's hearts around the world, seeking help from others.”

"With the help of a few people, they discovered that when fans listen to their favorite idols sing, they become very happy and warm. Therefore, they decided that the way to warm the hearts of everyone in the world was to gather all the idols together to record a song and play it for everyone."

That's about it.

In the practice room, Lee Seung Hwan is explaining the plot and concept of the VCR they are about to film to Ji Kyeong Won.

The other members already knew, this time he was speaking specifically to Ji Jingyuan.

After hearing this plot concept that he didn't know how to describe, Ji Kyeong-won smacked his lips and looked at Lee Seung-hwan with a probing question: "Brother, isn't this script designed by someone from our ** It feels very similar in style."

"Haha, what are you saying... those people in the planning department would definitely think you have something against them if they heard this."

Lee Seung-hwan couldn't help but burst into laughter after hearing this. He patted Ji Kyeong-won on the shoulder and added,

“Just now we’re going to film the scene where EXO was invited by them to participate in the song recording. The process is simple, they come to invite us, and then the members struggle for a while. That’s when I’ll call you outside the door, and after you hear it, you politely decline and go out. Even if you agree.”

"That's so easy"

"Yeah, this part was easy, there are still some other segments. We'll be filming the song in a couple of days at the SBS headquarters. Besides that, Han and Xiu also have some solo shots, they already finished filming those the day before yesterday."

Lee Seung-hwang nodded and continued, "However, after this segment is finished, Jingyuan, you'll have to go on location with the SBS filming crew and play the role of Jin Tan to accept their help."

"Come to me for help... Brother, won't you tell them that the ridiculous way to warm everyone's hearts is mine"

At this, Chi Jingyuan's face turned rather grim. If it were truly him, it would definitely be a stain on his history that couldn't be washed away.

"Well, that's not the case. It's just to have you make a cameo appearance. They came up with that idea themselves. Since "The Heirs" is so popular and it's also on SBS, they definitely want to capitalize on your popularity."

"By the way, besides you, fx's Krystal will also be going. The other actors from "The Heirs" all have schedules and can't come, so the two of you will represent them." Lee Seong-hwan explained.

"Okay, bro, I got it."

Chi Jingyuan nodded to indicate that he understood.

After a while, the SBS production team arrived. A group of them carried cameras and equipment into EXO's practice room. After greeting everyone, they began to prepare.

And then, two of the four protagonists of this VCR, those who came up with that ridiculous and heartwarming plan, also walked into the practice room and greeted the members.

Chi Jingyuan's eyes widened in surprise upon seeing the arrival.

This time we are filming two people, respectively 2PM's Junho and Apink's Naeun.

His ex-girlfriend suddenly appeared before him. Ji Jingyuan was a little surprised, but his expression remained unchanged. He stood at the side and greeted everyone with the other members.

He was dressed in a very ordinary light-colored jacket and jeans today. His overall outfit wasn't eye-catching at all.

Then, as soon as Sun Na-eun entered the room, her eyes scanned the area and immediately locked onto Ji-yeong's position at the very edge. She stared intently at him for several seconds.

And Ji Jingyuan was also looking at her, their gazes intertwined in the air for a moment, then he smiled and waved his hand as a greeting. Sun Na-eun lightly bit her lip and shifted her gaze away.

With so many people present, they definitely wouldn't show anything. Except for Wu Shixun who glared provocatively at Ji Jingyuan, no one else noticed anything unusual.

After the equipment was set up, I went over the specific process one last time. After two rehearsals, we started filming officially.

Throughout the entire process, Jingyuan doesn't speak a word or make any movements. He just stands at the edge of the line. When needed, he shows a little surprise and embarrassment, then walks out with everyone else when Li Chenghuan's voice comes from outside the door.

It's really relaxed and pleasant, feeling like there's no difference with or without him.

It was finished after only two takes, and it didn't take even an hour in total.

When filming the second take, Jung Soo-jung came to the EXO practice room with her assistant. She waited and watched EXO film.

She also fixed her gaze on Chi Jingyuan at first glance, her eyes looked at him unkindly. When Chi Jingyuan smiled and responded, she curled her lips and turned away from him.

It's estimated that because he was angry these days, Chi Jingyuan hadn't taken the initiative to contact her besides occasionally sending a text message.

That day, she said coolly, 'Contact me after you break up,' which I thought was very cool at the time. But afterwards, when I got back home, she kind of regretted it.

After filming wrapped, Park Se-young and Jung So-min went with the SBS crew to a school in Gangnam District for an exterior shoot. When they arrived, Kang Min-hyuk, who plays Yoon Chan-young, was already there. A total of three actors from "The Heirs" drama crew came to the set.

First, a styling process was done to recreate the classic image from the television series, and then filming began.

Jeong Seowon and Kang Min-hyeok filmed together, while Park Kyung-won came with Son Naeun for a rival scene.

"Are you Jin Tan"

"Who are you inside"

Ji Jingyuan and Son Na-eun stood half a meter apart, gazing at each other. After finishing their designated lines, they didn't make any other movements after the director shouted "CUT," remaining still, eyes locked on each other.

For some reason, acting opposite Son Na-eun stirred up some inexplicable emotions in Ji-seong. There was complexity mixed with a tinge of reminiscence and aftertaste.

They looked at each other for two seconds, then blinked together in unison with a light smile.

"You did a great job." Chi Jingyuan gave him a thumbs up with a grin.

"You learned from me, didn't you" Son Na-eun seemed to sense the similar emotions in Ji-yeong's heart and wasn't as listless as she was at their previous meeting. Instead, she playfully did a 'k', smiling back.

Honestly, this kind of Seon Naeun is much more charming than the previous one with a hint of resentment.

After filming a few more takes, they were done. Then everyone said their goodbyes. Ji-seong was preparing to return to the company, while Sun-a and the others were going to find other idols to film with.

“She… couldn’t possibly be your ex-girlfriend, could she”

Ji Jingyuan was packing his things. Zheng Xiujing arrived beside him at some point, her tone sour as she asked a question. Although her gaze wasn't on him, everyone knew she was talking to him.

"Are you curious" Chi Jingyuan glanced at her.

"I'm not interested, I just asked casually. I noticed earlier that your eyes looked strange when you were looking at each other."

Jung Soo-jung let out a soft hum, firmly denying it. But the words that followed seemed a little hesitant.

“…………”

Chi Jingyuan nodded lightly and did not answer her.

Although what Zheng Xujing said is actually correct, he's not someone who likes to tell people all about his ex-girlfriend.

He didn't need to show off with this, and he also felt it was a bit unfair to Sun Na Eun.

"Well, let's just forget about it..."

Seeing Ji Chang Wook's expression, Jung So Min knew she couldn't ask anything more. She snorted, stretched out her foot to lightly kick his leg, then followed her assistant into the nanny car. She had a schedule to run later.

Ji Jingyuan watched her get into the nanny car, waved goodbye gently, and then got in himself, returning to the company to rejoin his members. They continued their intense activities and practice until late at night.

As the moon set and the sun rose, Chi Jingyuan, waking up from his bed in the dormitory early that morning, looked out the window at the sky just beginning to brighten. He couldn't help but let out a sigh.

Today is the 23rd, it's the day that Pei Zhuhyun and her group are holding their showcase. For this, he pushed back his advertisement shoot for several hours, and I don't know if he will have time to sleep tonight.
