The filming of intimate scenes is of paramount importance in works about same-sex relationships. If the actors are stiff and fake when they kiss or touch, it will give the impression of straight men forcing themselves to sell it, and the subsequent plot will lose its appeal.

Therefore, in order to make the two actors natural, natural, and more natural, Director Baek not only dismissed many staff members, but also gave them enough space and time to brew their emotions.

“The first kiss scene in the car in Chapter 43 is a sudden outburst when the two main characters’ ambiguity has reached a certain level. Under the influence of alcohol, one person shows aggression, and the other goes with the flow, responding to the other faithfully to their desires,” Director Baek said slowly through the walkie-talkie. “So for this kiss, I hope you can generate ‘appetite,’ understand?”

That’s right, appetite.

When a person has a physiological reaction to another person, they will subconsciously swallow, want to kiss, want to suck, want to bite…

This instinct, which is similar to appetite, is definitely urgent, wishing to crush the other person and swallow them into their stomach.

If it’s just a light touch, it’s too boring and lacks tension.

Yoon Nam-hyuk’s throat was dry, and he swallowed for no reason. He didn’t say anything. It was still Qi Huai who politely replied, “I understand, director. Yoon Sunbae and I will brew our emotions.”

Director Baek said, “Okay, we’ll start in five minutes,” and then turned off the sound recording equipment, leaving them space to discuss.

Qi Huai looked at Yoon Nam-hyuk, who was sitting next to him, and smiled gently. “Senior, do you want to talk while lying down? We’ll be shooting from this position later anyway. Why don’t we just do it like this when we rehearse? It’ll be more convenient to get into character.”

Logically speaking, Yoon Nam-hyuk was the senior who had been in the industry for many years. He should be the one to guide Qi Huai into the scene. But he didn’t know what was wrong with him. He would panic whenever they filmed intimate scenes…

It was as if he was a little afraid of the other person.

The 28-year-old movie star senior was actually afraid of a 22-year-old artist who was new to the entertainment industry. It would be a joke if this got out.

But the fact was that Yoon Nam-hyuk was indeed a little scared. Because whenever he thought about what happened that night, he would feel his limbs go weak and his back tingle. The other person was a very ferocious diner. He had almost been made into a puddle of water by the other…

This guy, is he only polite when he’s working? Or does he have a violent tendency after drinking? Yoon Nam-hyuk couldn’t help but wonder.

“Yoon Sunbae?” Qi Huai waved his hand in front of the other’s eyes. “Are you listening?”

“Oh, sorry… what did you say just now?” Yoon Nam-hyuk’s face turned red. He cursed himself for being so unprofessional. How could he be distracted on the set?

Could it be that just one time…

He had already developed a taste for it and was flustered?

Qi Huai smiled and didn’t mind that Yoon Nam-hyuk was distracted in front of him. Instead, he thought the other person was very cute. His face was red, and he looked very nice to knead.

“I was saying, Yoon Sunbae, do you want to rehearse with me while lying down?”

“Lying down?”

“Mm, we should be shooting directly from the kissing scene later, right? The moment the director shouts ‘Action,’ I’ll have to offend you, sunbae. So in order not to interrupt the emotions we’ve brewed, it’s better for us to maintain the shooting posture and not change it, right?”

The junior’s words made a lot of sense. Yoon Nam-hyuk pursed his lips and nodded, preparing to lie down. “Okay, you can come over.”

The back seat of the car was small, and Qi Huai was nearly 190 cm tall. It was inevitable that there would be physical contact when the two of them tried to get into the position of the attacker pressing down on the receiver according to the script.

By the time the two of them had spent more than ten seconds lying down, Yoon Nam-hyuk’s face was already very red.

Qi Huai propped his arms on either side of Yoon Nam-hyuk’s ears, his gaze sweeping from the other’s earlobe to his evasive eyes. “I heard that it’s also your first time shooting a large-scale intimate scene, sunbae. Me too.”

Before Yoon Nam-hyuk could think of what to say, Qi Huai continued, “But sunbae, you’re more easily shy than me. The makeup artist was right. People with clean and delicate skin are more likely to flush. You’re just like that, sunbae… you’re already very red.”

Just like that night, he was so red he was adorable.

Like a juicy tomato, watery, slippery, warm, and soft. So delicious.

Yoon Nam-hyuk felt a little like he was being flirted with, but the other’s expression was really too sincere and innocent, as if a naive junior had said something offensive because he didn’t understand the art of language and was just being sincere.

Besides, he was a foreigner. It was already very good that he could speak Korean so well.

Yoon Nam-hyuk put his hand on Qi Huai’s shoulder. “Stop talking about irrelevant things. Let’s start rehearsing.”

Qi Huai nodded and said a line. “I asked you last time, didn’t I?”

“What did you ask—!” Yoon Nam-hyuk retreated in panic, and then came the scene where Qi Huai kissed him.

Because they were rehearsing and building up their emotions, Qi Huai didn’t really kiss him, but just symbolically pressed his lips against Yoon Nam-hyuk’s.

From the color to the wetness, both of their lips were in a good state that had been praised by the makeup artist. There were no dry flakes or pigment deposits, so there was no need to apply lip balm or anything like that.

Without the barrier of sticky lip balm, the tingling sensation was even more pronounced. Yoon Nam-hyuk couldn’t help but groan.

Damn it! What am I doing!

“Sorry,” Yoon Nam-hyuk quickly turned his head away, “It’s a little itchy.”

Qi Huai smiled. “Me too. It won’t be itchy if we kiss harder later.”

“Mm,” Yoon Nam-hyuk didn’t know what to say for a moment. “How about… we just start? I don’t think we need to rehearse.”

“I’ll listen to you, sunbae,” Qi Huai’s gentle and obedient attitude was completely different from his strong and fierce performance in the kissing scene. He was so well-behaved that even the crew was spreading rumors that the cold Actor Yoon was in a much better mood these past two days because of his well-behaved junior, and he had even stopped giving the staff a hard time.

“By the way,” Qi Huai suddenly said, “does Yoon Sunbae have any sensitive spots that can’t be touched?”

“What?” Yoon Nam-hyuk was stunned, thinking he had misheard.

However, Qi Huai continued, “Did I touch a place I shouldn’t have before, and that’s why you had a reaction?”

“You…!” Yoon Nam-hyuk was dumbfounded.

“Senior, are you wondering how I know?” Qi Huai lowered his eyes and smiled. “Because the height of the protective gear has changed. You poked me, senior.”

Yoon Nam-hyuk’s face turned red in an instant.

Although they were two men, having his protective gear pushed open during an intimate scene and being discovered by the other party was no different from sexual harassment.

Yoon Nam-hyuk immediately lost his confidence. “I’m sorry, I’ll be more careful.”

“Don’t misunderstand, I don’t mean to blame you,” Qi Huai said with a smile. “Senior is a very professional actor. You must have been very discouraged when you made a mistake in the morning, right? Some things can’t be handled with just acting skills. Instead of not talking about it because you’re shy, you might as well just tell me. I’ll avoid those places, and the filming might go more smoothly.”

He asked again, “So do you have any sensitive spots that can’t be touched? If you do, I’ll avoid them.”

Yoon Nam-hyuk felt his face getting hotter and hotter. He was 100% sure that he was completely red, with nowhere to hide. He was speechless and wanted to bury his head in the sand like an ostrich.

“You don’t want to say? It’s okay, then I’ll just…”

Although he was a junior, the other was so gentle and considerate that it almost made Yoon Nam-hyuk ashamed. Actually, there was nothing he couldn’t say, it was just… “…I’m not sure.”

Qi Huai looked surprised. “Not sure? Hasn’t Yoon Sunbae done it with anyone before?”

Yoon Nam-hyuk was choked.

He thought to himself, it seems this guy isn’t pretending to be at home, but really doesn’t remember what happened that night…

He felt a little guilty, because he, as a senior, had a great responsibility for the drunken one-night stand. Although he was the one on the bottom, the other was a few years younger than him and was a newcomer with no experience in the industry.

He had “eaten his fill” and then fled without a word. If the other had a cleanliness obsession in that aspect, he should be very angry, right?

Of course, he also felt a little sad.

This guy actually doesn’t remember anything… he did it so many times that night, doesn’t he have any impression at all?

Qi Huai also studied Yoon Nam-hyuk’s expression with a probing gaze. To be honest, he didn’t understand why a certain someone had fled that morning.

Was it not good with him?

But the other had clearly screamed so loudly.

Doesn’t he like him?

If the proud Actor Yoon disliked him, he probably wouldn’t have taken this role at all.

Or maybe…

Just a one-night stand, and he doesn’t want to get into a long-term relationship?

That’s a bit troublesome.

My goal is to get married, senior.

“Are the two actors ready?” Director Baek’s voice suddenly came out. Yoon Nam-hyuk was startled. Qi Huai took the opportunity to wrap his arm around his waist and said to the director, “We’re ready.”

Director Baek: “OK! Then we’ll… 3, 2…”

Qi Huai suddenly lowered his voice and leaned closer. “Senior, my protective gear also got pushed open during the morning scene.”

Wha—!

“Action!”

Yoon Nam-hyuk’s eyes widened, but a passionate kiss came at the next moment. Qi Huai’s mouth smelled of alcohol. This was a bit of whiskey sprayed in for the sake of realism. His flexible tongue licked the sensitive palate, just like that night, with a strong sense of aggression.

It was the same smell of alcohol that day. The other’s kiss was more urgent and forceful than now…

Yoon Nam-hyuk, who was pushed to the limit of shame by the kiss and the memories, was trembling even in his fingertips and couldn’t help but whimper.

Qi Huai frowned.

Damn it, the protective gear is going to pop open again.

My cute senior really knows how to moan.

He moans when he’s kissed, and he moans when he’s doing it. He just doesn’t make a sound when he runs away, faster than a little mouse.

The remaining staff around gasped. They thought the movie star’s acting was so good. It was so real. The ratings for this episode would definitely be a hit!

The kiss ended.

According to the plot, Qi Huai fell into a deep sleep. Yoon Nam-hyuk’s tongue was numb. He gasped for breath, his chest rising and falling rapidly.

Director Baek was extremely satisfied and shouted, “Great, one take! Can the two of you proceed to the next scene?”

The next scene was where Yoon Nam-hyuk held up Qi Huai’s face and secretly tasted the sleeping person’s lips as revenge. To say it was revenge was actually just a fun way for the main couple’s feelings to heat up.

Everything else was fine, but there was one very troublesome point. The sleeping Qi Huai couldn’t possibly support his own body. He had to be very heavy and press down on Yoon Nam-hyuk.

But at this time, Yoon Nam-hyuk’s protective gear…

No matter how embarrassed Yoon Nam-hyuk was, he couldn’t care about his pride anymore. He couldn’t just keep pressing against his co-star, right? It was normal to have a reaction when filming such scenes. The director and staff could understand. Even if it got out, it wouldn’t—

“Senior, let’s endure it and finish filming everything, can we?” Qi Huai whispered in Yoon Nam-hyuk’s ear, pleading. “My protective gear has popped open, it’s not convenient for me to get up. Let’s film it all in one go, and then ask the director to clear the set.”

Director Baek: “The two lead actors?”

Yoon Nam-hyuk hesitated. Qi Huai replied, “It’s fine, director. Please give us a minute to brew our emotions.”

Director Baek: “OK.”

“Senior, fighting,” Qi Huai lay in Yoon Nam-hyuk’s neck. “If your protective gear also pops open, I’ll help you press it down.”

Of course, he couldn’t press it with his hands. Qi Huai adjusted his posture and used his own protective gear to press on Yoon Nam-hyuk’s.

This guy!

Yoon Nam-hyuk bit his lip hard to keep from groaning.

Director Baek let out an “Aiyo” from behind the camera. “This posture is good. The audience will definitely scream with excitement! Aigoo, working with experienced and thoughtful actors is so easy. A good work needs the whole team to work together!”

After saying that, he pressed the walkie-talkie. “All departments, get ready. 3, 2…”

In the camera, Yoon Nam-hyuk held up Qi Huai’s face and indeed bit down with a sense of venting his anger.
