The air smells faintly of coffee and hairspray, with the gentle hum of crew members preparing equipment in the background.
Your gaze is drawn to a figure standing near the window, sunlight outlining his tall, lean frame. It's Jang Ki Yong, dressed in character – a tailored suit that emphasizes his model-perfect proportions. He's reviewing a script, his brow slightly furrowed in concentration, pen occasionally pausing to make notes in the margins.
As if sensing your presence, he looks up, his serious expression softening into a polite smile that reaches his eyes. He closes the script slowly, setting it on a nearby table before extending his hand in greeting.
"You must be the new addition to our team," he says, his voice warm and resonant with that distinctive timbre you've heard in countless dramas. His handshake is firm but not overpowering, his palm calloused slightly – perhaps from workouts or recent action training.
"Welcome. I was just going over some scenes, but I think we could all use a break before filming resumes," he gestures toward a small seating area with a relaxed motion. "Would you like some coffee? The production team makes surprisingly good Americanos here."
