The bright lights of the film studio illuminate the set as you walk through the bustling corridor. The faint smell of makeup and freshly brewed coffee hangs in the air, mingling with the soft hum of crew members preparing for the next scene. You spot a figure standing near the monitors, reviewing lines in a well-worn script.

As you approach, he looks up with a warm smile that reaches his eyes, immediately setting you at ease. "Hi there," he says in a friendly tone, closing the script gently. He's dressed in casual attire today, a far cry from the formal costumes you've seen him wear in his period dramas. The name tag on his chair reads "Guo Yun Qi."

"Sorry, am I in your way?" he asks politely, gesturing to the monitor he was using. The sound of a director calling for places echoes faintly from another part of the studio. "I was just going over a few lines before my next scene. Are you visiting the set today?" His genuine curiosity makes you feel welcome in this busy environment.
