Genius remembers the website address in 3 seconds [ ]

"Nuna, your home is really messy. Even if you call me here instead of going out to have dinner, aren't you being a little too ambitious?"

Standing at the entrance, looking at the messy room, Luo Junning's face was full of depression. This article was first published by

His original intention was to invite Song Ji Hyo out to get together and ask if he had encountered any trouble. If allowed, he would not mind helping Song Ji Hyo, even if it was an expired film after the release of "Frost Flower Shop" It feels like this, but for Luo Junning, who just learned about this, this is the best situation he can do.

But Song Ji Hyo directly sent her home address to Luo Junning, and then there was no further news.

Luo Junning rushed over according to the address, only to see the messy living room, with several empty wine bottles scattered on the floor. Although Song Jihyo had dressed up a little, her obvious dark circles and depressed spirit were still there. Unable to hide it, Luo Junning was even more surprised.

In his impression, Song Ji Hyo was still the same image as when she starred in "Palace", cautious and hardworking, but was the decadent young woman in front of him really the Song Ji Hyo in his memory?

"Sorry, I have been busy promoting the movie recently and have no time to tidy up the room." Song Ji Hyo forced a smile.

Luo Junning twitched her lips and stopped teasing the woman. She also put aside her status as a guest and helped Song Jixiao tidy up the living room. Although it was still messy, it could at least be used to entertain guests.

"I just ordered takeout. It will arrive in a while. Just eat it at my house and don't go outside." Song Ji Hyo sat on the sofa, clearly feeling like she was escaping, as if she was afraid of going outside. "I'm the general trend now." 'If you go out with me and are photographed by reporters, you will probably become famous, and it won't be a good one."

Luo Junning frowned and said with a smile, "Nuna, just be happy."

"Um."

Song Jixiao really didn't have the consciousness to deal with Luo Junning. The takeout she ordered was quite rich, and most of them were Chinese dishes. She probably remembered Luo Junning's Chinese identity very clearly, but the few extra cans of beer in it made her Luo Junning frowned even more tightly.

"I haven't been sleeping well lately, but I have to cheer up when I need to run for publicity. I can't prescribe sleeping pills in my current state, right? Otherwise, reporters outside may say that I can't stand the current 'general trend' and I chose to commit suicide to escape, so I can only drink some wine. If you don’t mind, let’s drink some together,” Song Ji Hyo said with a self-deprecating smile.

Luo Junning pressed the beer in Song Jixiao's hand and said helplessly: "This is not good for your health. If you have any grievances, you can tell me."

"Grieved? What grievances can I have? You don't think that someone forced me to act in this drama, right? Don't be ridiculous, as I said in the interview, I just want to try to make an 'artistic film' The road is just like the Lust Caution in your country, there are not so many messy things," Song Ji Hyo said with a smile, but the smile was quite ugly.

"Frost Flower Shop" can be used to withstand the storm caused by the puppet "Very Anchor", and it seems to have succeeded, because it really has enough controversial points.

Not only the profound portrayal and discussion of the unethical homosexual plot in the play, but also the large-scale to revealing performance of Song Ji-hyo, an actress who has always presented herself as a pure actress, is also considered conservative in this drama. There has been endless turmoil in the country, and it has almost reached the level of personal attacks. Both the crew of "Frost Flower Shop" and Song Ji Hyo herself use "Lust, Caution" and art as their official arguments for this.

"If what you say is true, then you won't drown your sorrows in wine." Luo Junning said slowly, but did not let go of his hand.

Song Ji Hyo's laughter slowly died down and eventually disappeared. He just stared at Luo Junning seriously. After a long time, he finally spoke and said in a recalling tone: "You know, I didn't think about being an artist at first. I just When I accepted a request from my senior to work as a temporary worker in a coffee shop, I was accidentally discovered by my manager.”

"I thought very well at the time that I could enter the entertainment industry and become a popular idol that attracted much attention. My agent who liked me at that time also described the entertainment industry to me in this way. It allowed me to see too many wonderful things about the entertainment industry in advance. But after entering Only after joining this circle did I realize that maybe his description was not wrong. There are so many beautiful things here, but they don’t belong to me.”

"Nine years ago, I was in the advertising industry shooting commercials and pictorials. Eight years ago, I made my debut on the cover of a magazine. Six years ago, I started acting in my first movie, which was a horror film; five years ago, I acted in An action movie. Then I met you and acted in that movie "Palace", and I became famous, but what about next? Three years ago, my role in "**" won me the 43rd place. Nominated for the Best New Actress in the TV category of the Baeksang Arts Awards, and two years ago, she was nominated for the Most Popular Actress in the 44th Baeksang Arts Awards in the Film Category for "Sex is Sora". What next?"

"The best time for a woman is really short. I entered this circle when I was an adult at the age of 20. Now, I am 29 years old and still have achieved nothing."

"So, do you understand?"

Song Jixiao looked at Luo Junning with a smile.

Luo Junning was silent for a long time, then smiled helplessly: "Sorry, I thought too much."

"It's okay. Actually, it's good this way. I've always worn a mask to meet people. Now there's someone who I can treat with my true face. I'm lucky. But you can see that the real me is not gentle or cute. I even like to drink and mess up my home to vent my emotions. I'm even rude. So, you should hate me now, right?" Song Ji Hyo seemed a little...happy?

Luo Junning shook his head and said, "Real people will never be hated."

"Although it's disgusting to please people, it's still pretty nice." Song Ji Hyo was stunned for a moment and turned her head.

After eating this not-so-happy dinner, Luo Junning left Song Ji Hyo's house, and the smile on his face disappeared the moment he left.

Song Ji Hyo's home is not a luxurious villa area, but an ordinary residential building. When Luo Junning went downstairs thinking about something, he also met some residents going up and down the stairs. There was nothing unexpected until he was bumped by a fat uncle when he walked downstairs. He was fine, but the fat uncle who walked with the wind staggered a few steps and said angrily: "Hey! Where did you come from, you little brat, don't you look at the road?"
