other party invited him out for a meal, he turned it down because he had an appointment with Tzuyu. Today happens to be evening and he has some free time, so he wants to make up for it as a courtesy...At the crack of dawn, the sky was just beginning to lighten. A light rain had fallen during the night, and the ground was now damp. Dewdrops glistened on the leaves in the community garden. In the distance, several animal calls could be heard, their species indistinguishable.

In the master bedroom of a high-rise luxury apartment, there were no lights on. The dim light from outside shone through the curtains, casting a unique hue across the room.

Clothes were thrown haphazardly on the carpet, nobody seemed to care. Meanwhile, Jung So-jung had already gotten out of bed and quickly dressed, covering her graceful figure.

"Isn't it still a while until we leave for the film set Why are you up so early"

Also getting up, Chi Jingyuan sat without turning on the lights, gazing at the other person in the dimness while questioning with a hint of doubt.

"All the members are busy with their own activities lately, so f(x) doesn't have any schedules. I told my manager yesterday that I wanted to go home, but my mom thought I was still at the dorm, so I had to go back early so she wouldn't find out."

Zheng Xiu-jing expertly buttoned up the back of her blouse, then picked up a line and slipped it over her white skin.

She quickly got dressed, walked into the bathroom to freshen up, and a few minutes later returned to the master bedroom, picked up her bag and prepared to leave.

She glanced at Chi Jingyuan, whose gaze never left her. She wrinkled her nose at him: "Don't get too cocky, you might not have this kind of luck forever."

"Let's talk about this after you break up with your girlfriend."

"Then what if I don't break up" Chi Jingyuan tilted his head and asked.

" … Do as you please."

After she finished speaking, she slung her bag over her shoulder and prepared to leave.

"Actually…" However, the sound that came next made her stop. She turned around and met Ji Jingyuan's gaze.

"Senior, actually I don't have a girlfriend right now."

Chi Jingyuan spread his hands toward her, his expression calm but his tone earnest.

He didn't want to deceive the other party, and what he said was completely truthful, more genuine than gold.

"Hmph."

"Alright, there's no need to deceive me, I already know."

"Still the same thing, remember to tell me if you break up."

Jeong Seo-jeong immediately let out a derisive laugh and shook her head, staring at Jiyeong for several seconds with a complicated expression. After leaving a sentence, she turned and walked out with her bag, the sound of opening and closing doors soon following. Jiyeong was left staring in astonishment at her departing figure, unsure what to say.

After a long silence, he couldn't help but scold: "No, you know everything!"

Do I have a girlfriend Don't you know that better than me

Ki Chyeong-won didn't know why his words had led Jung Seo-jeong to be so certain.

During the several months that he was filming, he didn't conceal anything in front of her. There wasn't even a hint of a relationship. Anyone with eyes could see it.

...but for some reason, even today, Jung So-jung is so certain about it. She seems to have seen the fabricated girlfriend, Ji-yeong, with her own eyes, while I haven't even met him myself.

Ji Jingyuan thought and thought, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. He sent Park Bo-gyeom a text message, then got up, dressed, washed his face, and waited for the other party to come pick him up to go to the studio.

Well, I guess I'll just have to take the roundabout way and tell her I want to break up in a few days.

It's really interesting, I wonder what problem occurred in the brain circuit...

…………

After arriving at the set, everyone greeted each other.

Jung Soo-jung's face was calm, as if nothing had happened. Her assistant next to her was also the same, with no abnormalities.

Yesterday's broadcast of Episode 17, with viewership statistics already reaching 28.7% this morning, it is highly likely that tonight's Episode 18 will officially break the 30% mark.

Today is the last day of filming for the crew, everyone is very relaxed and there are basically no shooting tasks. The actors get together from time to time to chat, cherishing this last moment of being together as a crew.

After lunch, they filmed for another two hours. Finally, under the gaze of everyone, director Kang Shin-hyuk announced that "The Heirs" had officially wrapped up.

This 2013 year, perhaps even the whole year's, hottest and most discussed television drama has finally wrapped up filming.

This drama can be described as a slow burn. It premiered with only 10% viewership and was ridiculed by many. However, starting from the third episode, it gradually gained momentum and eventually became a powerful trend sweeping across Asia.

This drama can be said to have brought infinite glory to several of the lead actors. Park Shin Hye at this time had completely become a representative of young actresses, and the rumors about her when she first debuted were no longer mentioned.

Jin Goo Bin, this model-turned-actor, who wasn't exactly a stable star in the industry, has become one of the hottest names right now thanks to this drama. He's already landed countless commercials and his agency is reportedly overflowing with scripts.

The others, including Jin Ji-won and Jeong Soo-jeong, were also in the same boat. While Jin Ji-won didn't receive as much attention as Kim Woo-bin, she still benefited a great deal.

And this is a solid step for Zheng Xiujing as she transitions into an actress. Her portrayal of Lee Boa-na has been well-received by many, and the role has become one of her signature works.

As for the male lead, Ji Jingyuan, there's no need to say more. Kim Tan swept through half of Asia like a storm, and he remembered the itinerary for China and Southeast Asia that Park Bo-gum had shown him last time, making his scalp tingle.

Jin Tan has surpassed Yun Yun Zai and become the most representative role in Chi Jingyuan's acting career. Now in the film and television industry, many people no longer regard him as an ordinary idol actor.

In the eyes of most people, whether they are industry insiders or ordinary audience members, when discussing the most outstanding, popular, and talented young male actors in Korea currently, they will unconsciously include Ji Chang-wook in the discussion.

The benefits of "The Heirs" have been substantial for everyone involved, and many opportunities are still waiting to be explored.

With a mix of passion and melancholy, Ji Jingyuan bid farewell to everyone. He first said goodbye to several friends, including Park Shin Hye and Kim Woo Bin, making plans to get together again when they were free.

Then he took the initiative to approach Kang Shin-hyuk and Kim Eun-shuk, expressing his sincere gratitude for their care and support during filming.

薑信孝 didn't say much, just patted him on the shoulder and said some encouraging words. Kim Eun-sook obviously looked reluctant, pulling Ji Kyung-won and talking for a while. It seems like Kim Eun-sook has really become his loyal fan.

The two agreed that if they had the chance, they would definitely collaborate again. Chi Jingyuan bowed to say goodbye.

All along the way, he kept greeting and saying goodbye to the staff. Among the enthusiastic responses from the other party, Chi Jingyuan walked to the parking lot, preparing to get in his car and leave.

After opening the car door, he suddenly saw Jung Soo-jung getting into the car in the distance. Ki-seung smiled at her and made a hand gesture as if making a phone call with his right hand.

And when Jeong Soo-jung saw this, she wrinkled her nose at him and didn't respond. She arrogantly pulled open the car door and got in.

Ji Jingyuan smiled, didn't say much, and drove back to ** company.

The staff who had been waiting for a long time were overjoyed to see Ji Chang-wook return from filming. They held up the newly revised schedule and had a half-day meeting with Ji Chang-wook and Park Bo-gum, explaining their plans for Ji Chang-wook's itinerary over the next few weeks.

That airtight schedule is a bit overwhelming just looking at it.

But there's nothing to be done about it, Jin Tan is just that popular. Chi Jingyuan had already prepared himself for this.

The next morning, the plane took off from Incheon International Airport, soaring through the clouds at a rapid pace towards Gyeokgu.
