Chapter 56: My Oppa

ll. At a glance, it's clear she has something to ask her, but she seems a bit reluctant to do so."I... I heard that you're close friends with EXO's Yuan, which is Park Ji-won, right"After a few second...Mother Cui used to be a star chaser too. Although her past behavior seems a little ridiculous now, it has become a beautiful memory etched in her mind. So she can understand her daughter's actions better.

After some thought, Cui Ma sat down on the sofa and started talking to her daughter.

"Are you talking about the group EXO"

"Aniyo, omma, EXO is just secondary, the main meal is our Yuan Oppa. I'm Yuan Oppa's hardcore fan."

"The title track from EXO's debut album is so awful, and the styling is particularly hideous. If it weren't for Yuan Oppa in there, who would care about EXO"

Choi Sun-mi immediately corrected her mother, putting on an expression like a veteran fan. When she mentioned Ji Seong-won, she even held a teddy bear in front of her face, looking lovestruck.

"Yuan Why haven't I heard of O Ma"

Aunt Cui is already past that age. She knows nothing about this male group that just debuted this year. Even their names, she only looked up once online because of her daughter.

"Jjia How could this be!"

Choi Sun-mi's eyes widened in disappointment as she looked at her mother, and then immediately started introducing her oppa to her.

She often does this kind of thing online, even writing a set of promotional scripts and outlines, she's already very familiar with it.

"Yoon歐巴 is the most handsome male idol, and he has a particularly good figure..."

"I once spotted him outside the ** company building, wow jjia, he's so much better looking in real life than on screen, his charisma is amazing..."

"Oppa is especially polite and very kind to all the fans. As long as you can get close to him, he's willing to sign autographs and take photos..."

"Oppa is really strong, their EXO-K broke notes on the music show stage, only Oppa's stage is the most stable, and his dancing power is the best..."

"And he was cast as the male lead in a television drama just two months after his debut. He's truly amazing..."

Cui Shanmei's eloquence was captivating, her words flowing effortlessly. She portrayed Chi Jingyuan as the most exceptional person in the world, implying that anyone who couldn't see his greatness was simply blind.

"Mother Cui smiled on the surface, but inwardly she felt a twinge of helplessness."

These fangirl look funny and cute.

As time passed in Cui Seon-mi’s introduction, it neared the broadcast time of “Reply 1997”. The alarm clock she had placed beside her suddenly rang, and her mobile phone vibrated at the same time.

All the alarms are set ahead of time to make sure you don't miss the premiere.

"You even made two alarm clocks" Cui Ma looked at her daughter in disbelief.

"Shh, it's starting!"

Cui Shanmei hurriedly turned off both the alarm clock and her phone, making a quiet gesture to Cui Ma, indicating for her mother and herself to watch together.

Mother Cui pursed her lips and sat down beside her, watching with her. She knew that unless she took forceful action, her daughter wouldn't go to sleep now.

With the end of the ad, 《Please Answer 1997》 officially airs.

Countless EXO and Park Kyung-hwan fans were eagerly waiting in front of their television screens, holding their breath and anticipating the success of their beloved oppa's new drama.

However, within two minutes of the television broadcast ending, Ji Jingyuan, dressed in a suit, made his first appearance and was immediately dispersed.

This shot features four good friends entering a barbecue restaurant together for a reunion, with each friend getting an individual close-up shot facing the pool.

His tall stature and well-tailored suit made him stand out. The short hair he got especially for this drama and the specially designed hairstyle were very fitting for his temperament, and at first glance, one could only feel astonishment.

Even in just a few seconds, the scene captivates your attention.

"Ooh," Choi Seon-mi couldn't hold back and covered her mouth. Choi Ma was also staring in surprise at the television.

This male lead is really quite dazzling.

Next, the plot continues with a group of high school classmates gathering for a reunion. They banter and catch up with each other, and finally take a group photo together.

Then the timeline jumped back 15 years to Busan in 1997.

Ci Jingyuan's next appearance caught everyone's eye again. He was in a student uniform with a suit jacket and shirt.

Next, the main plot begins, telling the story of Cheng Shiyuan, an idol-chasing girl, who makes various efforts to chase after her idol, Tony, a member of the male group H.o.t. The story also depicts the various humorous and quarrelsome interactions between the male lead, Yun Jae, and Cheng Shiyuan, as well as their school life and the eccentric personalities of the group of friends around them.

The audience was initially captivated by the male lead, Yun Jae's, appearance and acting. However, as they delved deeper into the story, they became increasingly drawn to the plot itself.

Although this is Chi Jingyuan's first time acting, it has to be said that his talent is truly good, and it's no wonder the director and PD have been praising him as a natural actor all this time.

It's not a very flattering term, but it does show that people have high expectations for him.

Although it may seem a bit awkward, the character of Duan Yunzhai doesn't require overly mature and restrained acting. Park Ji-won's slightly raw acting fits this role perfectly, and besides that, his expressions of emotion and eyes are very convincing.

Idols who transition into acting often encounter many challenges. On stage, they need to exaggerate and use alluring expressions and mannerisms to enhance their stage presence and attract the camera and fans.

But after getting used to it, if you transition into acting, it's easy to bring this exaggerated performance into your acting, unless it's a stage play. In most television shows, this problem is quite serious.

Apart from that, there are also exaggerated expressions, vacant eyes, stiff movements, and inadequate emotional expression, etc., which are the most common mistakes idols make when transitioning to actors.

These problems were also encountered by Park Jin-young when he first joined the crew. However, he corrected them very quickly and luckily the crew members liked him so much.

Less than fifty minutes have passed since the first episode aired, and Choi Seon-mi is excitedly clutching her teddy bear, completely immersed in Yun Jae's charm.

Mom Cui was also quite surprised on the side. In her view, this TV series was actually quite interesting, with a good script and fun plot. The performances of several actors were also acceptable, especially the male lead, who made a very deep impression.

"Is Yun-jae the Oppa you're chasing after" Mom Cui confirmed curiously,

"Oh, oh! It's Yuan Oppa, isn't he especially handsome Wow, whether it's a suit or a school uniform, he's so good-looking. And Oppa's new short hairstyle is even better than before, ah…………..."

Choi Sun-mi was so excited that she eventually shrank her head to the teddy bear's chest and screamed.

"He is quite handsome." Mother Cui nodded in agreement.

Soon, the second episode began broadcasting, and the two stopped talking, continuing to watch intently.

This episode continues from the last, still telling the story of Cheng Shiyuan's pursuit of his idol being met with resistance from his family, as well as the various conflicts and reconciliations between the two main characters.

At the very end, Choi Seon-mi suddenly hurled the teddy bear at the television with all her might. She stood up abruptly, her face contorted with rage as she roared:

"This damn #%...&* woman actually kissed my Oppa!"
