The perception of passers-by who had been raging on the Internet and watching this TV series has gradually changed. Despite the bloody plot of the previous episodes, the plots of the recent episodes can be regarded as exciting and full of ups and downs. , the characters of several starring actors who seemed very cliché before have now shown their own unique charm.

Recently, as the ratings continue to rise, the outside world has paid more and more attention to "The Heirs". Now there is no need for SBS to actively invest promotional resources. More and more media and magazines want to conduct interviews every day. Countless.
According to the current trend of the ratings curve, as well as the positive reviews and reversals that have begun to emerge on the Internet, "The Heirs" has become the hottest focus in the Peninsula film and television industry this month.
The atmosphere in the crew, which had been stiff for a month, has also become much better. It is no longer full of high pressure and solemnity like the two weeks of the premiere. The relaxation and ubiquitous smiles that were seen when filming in LA have also returned to the crew.
Of course, after the previous trough, the atmosphere has become better now. No one dared to relax during the filming.
"Chanrong!"
Facing the camera, Lee Bo Na, played by Jung Soo Jung, had a surprised smile on her face, her little mouth opened to reveal her gray upper teeth, she clutched the bag she was carrying, and ran forward quickly with twists and turns.
As each character began to show their own charm, the role of Lee Bo Na played by Jung Soo Jung was also liked by many people.
The prerequisite is that she has a great appearance and figure. In addition, the character is also very good. The daughter-in-law has a willful and sassy personality, but a soft and kind heart. The daughter-in-law is played by Jung Soo-jung in a very cute and hard-to-hate manner.
She is also obsessed with her boyfriend Yin Canrong, and she is so sweet when they get along. The line she calls her boyfriend "Canrong ah" has become a classic line because of her tone and smile, and has recently become one of the hot topics of discussion among netizens.
"CUT!"
"It's great. After this period, everyone is hungry. Let's have lunch first and continue in the afternoon."
Jiang Xinxiao shouted into the loudspeaker, and both the staff and the actors breathed a sigh of relief. The noisy sound gradually began, and everyone began to chat and rest and prepare lunch.
"Xiu Jingxi's acting skills are really great. Her performance is so natural that sometimes I can't catch it."
Starring opposite Jung Soo Jung, Kang Min Hyuk from the boy band BULE relaxed a lot after the director called Cut. Looking at Jung Soo Jung, an appreciative and friendly smile appeared on his face, and he enthusiastically took the initiative to chat: "I feel completely inferior to you." Well, if you have time, can you teach me how to be like you..."
"Hey, Min Hyukxi, please have time later."
Zheng Xiujing responded with a polite smile, then bowed lightly and said "I'm going to eat first" and then turned around and left. After walking a few steps, she met the assistant who rushed over. The assistant put on a thick coat and picked her up. I passed a bottle of water, opened the lid and took a few sips.
While drinking, she glanced around with piercing eyes. When she saw Chi Jingyuan sitting on a back chair and playing with her mobile phone not far away, she narrowed her eyes and walked over.
Her assistant sighed after seeing it and followed suit.
After Jung Soo Jung left, a faint conversation between Jiang Min Hyuk and her manager could be heard from behind:
"Why are you chatting with others again? Didn't I tell you last time?"
"No, brother, it's just a casual chat. She and I act as a couple, and we have so many scenes opposite each other. It's normal..."
"Aisy, stop talking. You think I can't understand your thoughts. Even if you're outside, I don't care. Just keep it quiet on the set."
"Then why..."
One scolded and the other retorted. As the figures moved away, their voices began to mutter randomly.
…………
"Jingyuan!"
Chi Jingyuan, who was watching the news on his mobile phone, was interrupted by this mellow call. When he looked up, Zheng Xiujing was holding a glass of water and trotting over in three steps and two steps at a time. When he was about to arrive at his destination He jumped up in front of Chi Jingyuan, looked at him with a happy smile and shouted.
The other nearby actors, assistants, and crew members all looked at this side slightly.
When Jung Soo Jung was acting, she always said "Chanrong", but as soon as she stopped acting, she instantly changed to "Jingyuan", which made people who had been paying attention have a strange feeling, and at the same time marveled at Jung Soo Jung's acting skills as an idol actor. The conversion was so natural, without any awkwardness.
As the atmosphere on the set got better, the actors communicated more during breaks. In the past few days, Jung Soo-jing would always come to Chi Jingyuan's side when she was taking a break from filming, either to have a meal together or have a chat. Chatting together, there is really nothing else to do, so we have to sit nearby while playing on our phones or dazing.
The assistant told her several times to pay attention to the impact, but she didn't bother to listen. After convincing her to no avail, the assistant just let it go.
She actually reported this matter to the company, but after hearing that the other party was Chi Jingyuan, the agent thought for a while and left without saying anything.
The agent doesn't care, so naturally her assistant wouldn't bother with this.
Jung Soo Jung's closeness and affection were very obvious, but everyone on the crew was not surprised. They had been working in the industry for too long and had seen and heard everything. There were too many cases where actors and actresses had a crush on each other and got together. .
Two days ago, Kim Woo Bin's girlfriend avoided the media and specially brought a lot of things to visit the set. As long as the ratings increase and the filming is not affected, everyone is mostly indifferent and turns a blind eye.
They looked back twice and then looked away.
Chi Jingyuan is actually a little uncomfortable with the name 'Jingyuan'. He is also one of the people who has been watching Zheng Xiujing's filming. Every time he hears this tone of address, he always feels like the other person is still acting.
However, seeing the happy look on the other person's face, he didn't bother to spoil the fun and nodded to Zheng Xiujing:
"Looking at the news...it's been really lively these past few days."
