A convenience store in Seoul at 3 a.m. in 2013.

When Kang Jae-hoon was feeding stray cats with fish cake skewers, he was spotted by actor Hwang Jung-min.

Since then, there has been an "outlier" in the entertainment industry of the Peninsula -

he was the young man who woke up the extras with a real slap in "International Market", the drama geek who secretly learned Yoo Ah-in's micro-expressions on the set of "Veteran", and the Go Hwan who made the audience cry in "Reply 1988".

From the double-layer refrigerator in the shared house to the red carpet in Chungmuro, Kang Jae-hoon's road to advancement is full of absurdity and passion:

the sharp-tongued roommate Lee Sung-kyung hid expired rice cakes while calling him a "defective product";

the nation's first love Bae Suzy anonymously donated her salary to the family of the trainee who committed suicide, but showed him the AA bill;

the perfect goddess Im Yoona knocked on his door late at night just to confirm whether her mascara was smudged during the kissing scene.

Huang Zhengmin sneered with a cigarette in his mouth: "Kid, remember this - actors are either commodities or lunatics."

When Jiang Zaixun held up the Blue Dragon trophy, the camera swept across his yellowed notebook, and the last page read:

"The camera does not lie, but the audience will never know that I learned rock climbing so that I could carry Yoona out of the fire, I took the motorcycle license so that I could carry Suzy away from the illegitimate fans, and I practiced vacuum belly... just because the Bible said I looked like a pregnant raccoon."

This is a story about a "defective product" that became a specimen of the times.

[Innocent and seductive young woman × Abstinent and mad Buddhist master]

The night she was publicly humiliated by the son of a wealthy Beijing socialite, she, fueled by alcohol, forcibly kissed his father.

Licking him? You might as well make him kneel down and call you "stepmother"!

Everyone thought that Yan Tingnan, the "Buddha" of Beijing's elite circles, was an untouchable beauty, untouched by the world.

Only Su Ruan knew how crazy he was deep down, and the utter nonsense he said when praising her as obedient.

Later, Yan Yunye, with tears in his eyes, begged her to get back together outside her house.

Inside the door, Yan Tingnan was pressing her down.

"Good boy, call him that so your unfilial son can hear."

The next day, Yan Yunye pinned her against the wall with red eyes.

Who was that man last night?

"I know more than him, so please choose me."

Su Ruan calmly pushed him away: "I am your mother now."

"You used to complain that I was clingy? Now I'm clinging to your dad, aren't you happy?"

Yan Yunye broke down and questioned his adoptive father: "Did you have feelings for Su Ruan?"

Yan Tingnan scoffed: "So what if it is? You want to take it from me?"

"You've called her Su Ruan for six years, now it's time to call her Mom."

Mine clearance:

A satisfying story of slapping faces and punishing scumbags, filled with intense love triangles.

A chaotic mess of generations, full of melodramatic twists; if you don't like that, please don't read.

Electric blankets, washing machines, refrigerators, cars, fighter jets... Zhou Fengnian directly set off a wave of industrial development.

Several years later, when Zhou Fengnian saw the documentary of his life on TV, he felt that the trip was not in vain.

"Texas, the second-generation Godfather is the kind of person who kills without blinking an eye. Could you please not be so awkward when you call Lady Sicily 'Dad'?"

"Theresis, you play a Prime Minister who is supported by others, do you understand? The person you play is not as iron-blooded as you, he is not that strong, you act weaker."

"Wei Yenwu, Emperor Jiajing is a man who specializes in the art of checks and balances! He is not a wise monarch, he is stupid, stupid, you know? Also, you didn't shout out the phrase 'my money' well, do it again!"

Chen Qi came to the world of Arknights. With the reputation system, he finally chose a path that would not offend the big guys but could attract their attention - to be a director and make a movie!

So, Chen Qi filmed "The Godfather" in Syracuse, exposing the endless abyss of the mafia; "Yes, Prime Minister" in Victoria, satirizing politics and civil servants; and "The Ming Dynasty 1587" in Dayan, satirizing dynastic struggles...

Not only that, he also asked Texas to play the second-generation Godfather; asked Theresis to play Prime Minister Hacker himself; and let Wei Laoer play Emperor Jiajing...

"Our principle in filming is that we can shoot any film, whether it is a movie, a TV series, or even an animation."

"Being able to be released is a victory, and not being banned is a success."

"?"

How do you see the relationship between husband and wife?

The female lead is primarily focused on her career; romance is a very late part of the story. The male lead is practically a background character—a real background character. If you enjoy romance, this is not for you.
