Chapter 335 Engagement Banquet
Kim Ki-hyun helped introduce Lee Kwang-soo to the crew of "Hospital Playlist" quite smoothly.
Shin Won-ho was also quite interested in him and gave Kim Ki-hyeon enough face.
Finally, after some communication.
Shin Won-ho suggested Lee Kwang-soo to play the role of Ahn Do-won (the second male lead).
This character is quite similar to Lee Kwang Soo.
They all believe in Catholicism, have long legs, and are all rich second-generations.
Lee Kwang-soo has no objection.
After talking about Lee Kwang Soo.
Shin Won-ho turned to look at Kim Ki-hyun and asked, "Ki-hyun, are you really not going to act? You've won the Best Actor award, so won't you consider the Best Actor award?"
In fact, Jin Qixuan has no real interest in the Best Actor award.
With the improvement of quality of life.
In 2019, the audience ratio between cable TV and wireless TV stations has basically reached 1:1.
This means that since Jin Qixuan stopped acting in TV dramas.
No other drama has yet broken the actual ratings of the dramas he has starred in.
You dare to believe it.
The drama with the best ratings in its first week of airing in 2018 among all Korean dramas of that year was "Boyfriend" starring Park Bo Gum and Song Hye Kyo, which aired at the end of the year.
As for why the ratings of TV dramas are so dismal nowadays.
On the one hand, the tastes of today's audiences are becoming more and more sophisticated.
The requirements for plot, actors' acting skills and production level are also getting higher and higher.
on the other hand.
Actors who have done well in the TV drama industry are eager to move into the film industry.
After all, these two years are the peak years for Peninsula Films.
In addition, Netflix dramas began to change the landscape of Peninsula TV dramas.
This has led to extremely poor ratings for traditional TV dramas.
The quality of Best Actor award is as low as it can be.
Therefore, Jin Qixuan tactfully rejected Shen Yuanhao's kindness.
"PD, this year's schedule is full. Next time, definitely next time."
"Okay, let's wait for the next opportunity to cooperate again."
Shin Won-ho felt quite regretful about this.
But there is nothing we can do.
Jin Qixuan's current status and influence are no longer comparable to what they were before.
He is no longer the little actor who used to arrive one or two hours early for script reading sessions four years ago.
The main issues have been determined.
After chatting for a few more words, Kim Ki-hyeon said goodbye to Lee Kwang-soo.
He still has to go back and write the invitations.
That is the guest invitation list.
In fact, this kind of list is the most difficult to draw up.
If you don't invite anyone, he'll probably make fun of you the next time you meet.
Please come everyone, it’s not like that.
Being engaged is not like being married.
There are usually no more than forty people.
And the number of invitees must be an even number.
Kim Ki-hyeon originally planned to invite Lee Kwang-soo, Park Bo-gum, and Lee Dong-hwi.
Later I thought that I should hire my own mentor.
After inviting the tutor, does that mean we should also invite the dean?
Since we have invited the dean, shouldn’t we also invite the principal?
Since we have invited everyone from the school, should we also invite the company boss Cha Tae-hyun?
Since it involves work.
Big names like Lee Chang-dong, Bong Joon-ho, Song Kang-ho, and Sol Kyung-gu are also indispensable...
Finally, the guest invitation list was originally scheduled to include three people.
It actually expanded to more than fifty people.
Jin Qixuan was suddenly overwhelmed.
If so many people were really invited.
Then, this engagement party will become a large-scale social event.
Lost its original meaning.
Just at this moment.
Jin Qixuan's cell phone rang.
He picked it up and saw that it was a call from his big darling.
"Xuanxuan, how is your side going? Have you prepared the guest list?"
On the other end of the phone, Li Zhien said crisply.
"It's decided, but it's a bit too much..."
"How much more?"
"More than fifty..."
"so much???"
Jin Qixuan scratched his head in distress and said:
"Yeah, I originally planned to invite only a few friends, but then I took various factors into consideration and the list became longer and longer. What about you?"
"I only invited ten people, Yoo Hee-yeol, five oppas from GOD, Eun-ji, In-na, Sulli, and Ji-yeon."
Jin Qixuan was shocked.
He thought his little confused child would be like him, having trouble choosing after looking at the long invitation list.
The result was unexpected.
When it comes to big things, she is so decisive.
admire.
"Wife, I'll send you the list and you can help me with the decision."
"OK."
After a while, Li Zhien finished reading the list sent by Jin Qixuan and said, "Don't invite the senior actors."
"Okay, then when they ask me why I didn't invite them to the engagement party, I'll say my wife didn't let them come."
"You!"
Li Zhien was so angry at Jin Qixuan's words on the other end of the phone that she waved her fist at the air and said, "If you keep talking nonsense, I will fly over and beat you up!"
"Wrong, wrong..."
Jin Qixuan begged for mercy again and again.
"Hehe, just be afraid."
Li Zhien hummed twice with pride, then said seriously:
"Seriously, you need to send invitations to directors, teachers, and friends, but for the rest, you can just invite them at the wedding."
"What else?"
"The principal and the dean are very busy, they probably don't have time."
Hearing this, Jin Qixuan nodded and said:
"You are right."
"Also, please don't invite Hye Kyo and Joong Ki."
"Why?"
"Don't you know? There are rumors online that they are having a divorce and now they don't even wear their wedding rings. It is said that it is because Park Bo Gum intervened..."
Given Song Hye Kyo's style of falling in love with someone in every drama she makes, this kind of thing is not impossible to happen.
However, logically speaking, Park Bo Gum shouldn't do it.
Song Joong-ki took such good care of him in the early days, but now he is the one trying to steal his girl away.
How hungry is Park Bo Gum...
"The rumors on the Internet are all false, and the media will spread rumors to attract attention."
"Of course I know these rumors may not be true, but think about it."
Li Zhien gave him a very clear analysis:
"If they really don't have any problems, why don't they come out and clarify? And even if they don't have any problems, if we invite them now, wouldn't it be embarrassing for everyone if they really are unhappy about something?"
Jin Qixuan was silent for a while and felt that what Li Zhien said made sense.
After all, an engagement party is a happy event, and possible embarrassment and misunderstandings should be avoided as much as possible.
Finally, under the command of Lee Ji-eun.
Jin Qixuan began to quickly cross out most of the names on the original list.
Actors in the uncle circle such as Sol Kyung-gu, Song Kang-ho, Gong Yoo, Ma Dong-seok, Zhao In-sung, etc. were crossed out by Kim Ki-hyeon.
Sisters like Han Hyo Joo, Park Bo Young, and Lim Yoona, who were very close to him, were also crossed out by Kim Ki-hyeon.
In addition, Gucci's design director Michel, who was busy preparing for the fashion week, and the regional head of the brand he endorsed were all crossed out.
The editors-in-chief and photographers of GQ Korea and Vogue Korea magazines, with whom I frequently collaborate, were also crossed out.
Those who finally stayed included the boss Cha Tae-hyun, his mentor, director Lee Chang-dong, director Bong Joon-ho, director Han Dong-wook, Lee Kwang-soo, Park Bo-gum, Lee Dong-hui, and the Lee Sang-soon couple.
The host was Park Kyung-lin, who was invited by Kim Ki-hyeon.
She really watched Jin Qixuan grow up step by step.
From "Goblin" to "My First Brother".
She hosted all the press conferences attended by Jin Qixuan.
Park Kyung-lin was also very surprised when he received Kim Ki-hyun's invitation.
"Qixuan, of course I have to come to your engagement party. Congratulations on finally entering a new stage in your life."
Park Jinglin said happily on the other end of the phone.
"Thank you, Sister Jinglin. I'll have to trouble you to take care of me when the time comes."
"Hey, we are old friends, don't be so polite."
Park Kyung-rim smiled and said, "Have you arranged the procedures for that day? Is there anything I need to pay special attention to?"
"The process is relatively simple. At the beginning, you just warm up the audience and then introduce Jieun and I."
"No problem, I will definitely be ready."
Park Kyung-lin readily agreed. ——March 3rd.
It was just dawn.
Jin Qixuan was forced to wake up.
As soon as he wakes up, he is greeted by beauty and styling.
Jin Qixuan sat in front of the mirror with his eyes closed and dozed off.
Let the makeup artist gently apply it on his face.
The hairdresser was combing his hair carefully.
Jin Qixuan didn't go to bed until after three in the morning last night.
The main reason was that Lee Ji-eun was so nervous that she couldn't sleep, and she had to keep him awake to make phone calls.
It was not until three in the morning that they both fell asleep while talking on the phone.
Therefore, although Jin Qixuan seemed to be in good spirits at the moment due to the happy event.
But there was still a slight bluish tint under his eyelids.
Fortunately, the makeup artist had great skills and quickly concealed the fatigue under his eyes.
It made him look refreshed and energetic.
Showing the elegance and handsomeness of a groom-to-be.
A moment later.
After the styling was completed, Jin Qixuan changed his clothes.
This tailored suit is tailored to fit you perfectly with sleek lines.
It shows Jin Qixuan's physical advantages to the fullest.
Some shoulder pads have been added to the shoulders.
It makes Jin Qixuan's already broad shoulders look even more stylish.
The fine vertical stripes on the dark blue suit glow lightly in the sun.
Adds a touch of low-key luxury.
A white inner shirt is paired with a vest in the same color.
Accessorize with small accessories such as gold cufflinks, tie clips and lapel chains.
It also maximizes the exquisiteness and high-end feel of Jin Qixuan's overall shape.
"It's almost time, we should set off."
Just as Jin Qixuan was immersed in her own beauty.
Outside the door, Kim Jong Kook urged.
“Here it comes!”
Wait until you see Jin Qixuan's look today.
Everyone in the Jin family nodded in appreciation.
Really handsome.
Afterwards, the group set off for Lee Ji-eun's parents' home with the betrothal gifts.
Half past nine.
As soon as Jin Qixuan and his group arrived, Li Zhien's family came out to greet them warmly.
"Oh my, Mr. Jin looks so handsome today!"
As soon as Ji Eun's mother saw Jin Qixuan, she couldn't help but praise him.
Jin Qixuan responded with a smile, and then bowed and greeted Li Zhien's family.
Then, they were warmly welcomed into the house.
"Qixuan, please sit down. You must have worked hard on this journey."
Jin Qixuan did not sit down, but looked eagerly and said:
"Uncle, where is Ji-eun?"
"Jie Eun, come out and see your fiancé."
Hearing this, Ji Eun’s mother turned around and shouted into the house.
After a while.
Li Zhien walked out of the house slowly.
Her hair was neatly tied up, revealing her smooth forehead and slender neck.
The light makeup on her face makes her look fresh and refined, and her eyes as bright as stars are even more charming.
A pure white one-shoulder dress highlights her perfect figure.
The sexy collarbone is faintly visible against the white dress, exuding an indescribable charm.
The hem of the skirt is an arc formed from high to low.
The hem of the skirt is dotted with diamonds like stars.
It swayed lightly with her steps.
Like the twinkling stars in the night sky, and as crystal clear as the dewdrops in the morning.
The moment I saw Lee Ji-eun.
Jin Qixuan clearly felt that the whole room had become a lot brighter.
“Do I look good today?”
Li Zhien looked at him with a smile and asked.
Jin Qixuan opened his mouth and said, "Your beauty should never be questioned."
Hearing this, the corners of Li Zhien's mouth gradually curled up into a beautiful arc.
She walked over and held his arm.
The young couple didn't seem to be too affectionate with each other.
Because time is tight.
Jin Qixuan presented the betrothal gift to Li Zhien's parents according to etiquette.
Then, she offered tea to the elders in her family.
After the process is completed.
The group then drove to the Shilla Hotel that they had booked to welcome the guests.
Ten past ten.
Everyone arrived at Shilla Hotel.
The scene had been arranged in advance.
Just a few simple changes to the details.
Half past ten.
Kim Jong Kook and Ji Eun's parents and the couple stood at the door, waiting to welcome the guests.
The first person to arrive was Park Kyung-lin, the emcee invited by Kim Ki-hyeon.
"Oh my, what a perfect match. Congratulations. I wish you a long and happy marriage."
"Thank you, Sister Jinglin. You've worked hard today."
Jin Qixuan quickly expressed his gratitude.
Park Jinglin smiled and waved his hand, saying:
"No, no, it's my honor to host your engagement party."
Soon after, the guests arrived one after another.
Cha Tae-hyun arrived at the same time as Lee Kwang-soo, Park Bo-gum, and Lee Dong-hwi.
As soon as they came in, they congratulated Kim Ki-hyeon and Lee Ji-eun.
Lee Kwang Soo had his signature silly smile on his face, patted Kim Ki Heon on the shoulder and said, "Congratulations! When you get married, you have to let me be your best man!"
"Sure, sure."
Jin Qixuan responded with a smile.
Then, Li Donghui looked at Jin Qixuan and Li Zhien with a smirk and said teasingly: "Qixuan, you are the first one in our group to get married. You have to teach us some experience."
"I don't have any experience. I was just afraid that Jieun would run away, so I wanted to keep her by my side."
Hearing this, Lee Ji-eun punched him lightly with a sweet look on her face.
This also made everyone present laugh.
Afterwards, Park Bo Gum came forward and hugged Kim Ki-hyun: "Ki-hyun, congratulations on finding such a good partner, you must be happy!"
Jin Qixuan patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Thank you. I will definitely accept your blessing. You should also hurry up and find a partner."
Finally, Cha Tae-hyun patted Jin Qixuan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Qixuan, you are so lucky to have found such a beautiful wife."
“Thank you, Uncle Taehyun.”
Jin Qixuan bowed slightly, then looked at him with an inquiring look.
Silently asking about the outcome of the company's acquisition.
Che Taixuan understood, nodded slightly, and said:
"Let's talk after this is over."
"good."
