"Working with a PD I’d collaborated with multiple times before came with a lot of advantages.
First, the filming speed was overwhelmingly fast.
Since they already knew the actor’s tendencies and acting style,
it made directing incredibly straightforward in many ways.
'And if the actor is exceptionally skilled, the pace only becomes more unbelievable.'
PD Kim Youngmo, wearing a bucket hat, glanced subtly at Kim Donghu.
'Seriously, how does he act like an art student so naturally?'
Of course, the actual appearance of a fine arts student might differ significantly.
But he was perfectly embodying Han Doyun, the art student written in the script.
By now, compliments about his acting skills might be redundant.
But no matter how many times they praised him, it wasn’t enough—his acting and appearance were flawless.
In fact,
'even just looking at him now, it’s absurd.'
On camera, Kim Donghu was Han Doyun himself.
'Sujin’s acting has improved a lot too.'
Though compared to Kim Donghu, it might seem less impressive,
Kim Sujin’s portrayal of Jung Subin was nothing to scoff at objectively.
"…So, what? Are you saying we should get married or something?"
"Exactly, let’s get married. Just for a little while."
On screen, Han Doyun and Jung Subin were finally bringing up the topic of their fake marriage.
The two had been paired for a liberal arts class project.
Through various processes, they grew closer and, by chance, discovered each other’s financial situations.
Both were dirt poor.
They couldn’t even be sure they’d be able to afford the next semester’s tuition.
Even if they resolved their immediate financial issues, the future still looked bleak.
The solution they arrived at was marriage.
"Just until we graduate. You know that getting married lowers your income bracket, right? For university students, it’s almost the lowest level."
Clink.
Han Doyun downed a shot of soju and placed the glass on the table, speaking as if pleading.
It was already their fourth bottle.
With two bottles per person, it wasn’t surprising that they’d started to feel tipsy.
"…No, but even so, does that really make any sense?"
Jung Subin frowned, responding as if it were absurd.
The option was far too extreme.
"This is the most practical solution."
"No, why is that practical? You could just take out a loan!"
"The national scholarship loans have the lowest interest rates."
"…"
Jung Subin was left speechless by Han Doyun’s response.
He wasn’t wrong.
The best loan foundation available for university students,
which even covered living expenses with exceptionally low interest rates,
was the Korean Scholarship Foundation.
