Minho opened his eyes at dawn while everyone else was deeply asleep.

In a little while, the filming team would wake up and start working, and if Moon Ji-yu was caught coming out of his room after oversleeping, there could be a lot of gossip.

He stroked the head of Mun Ji-yu, who was sleeping deeply, a few times and returned to his room.

Fortunately, the people we met at the restaurant for breakfast the next day did not seem to notice the incident that occurred yesterday.

However, Moon Ji-yu sent a text saying that he was tired and would skip breakfast, and Bang Bang-an, who saw that, looked at Min-ho with a strange look in his eyes.

Afterwards, the group moved to the airport, saw the last scenery of Saipan, and safely returned to Korea.

The cast dispersed to their respective homes to rest, but the production crew’s work began in earnest.

“Now, let’s make it fun.”

Producer Taejun Park, who was the first to return to the office, muttered that.

The editing team saved the original footage taken from the camera on the computer and first played back the video at double speed to cut out useless content.

Producer Park Tae-jun had already delivered the editing points, so the process proceeded without hesitation.

The editing team that started the work cut the video indifferently at first.

“Perhaps because the number of tourists has decreased due to the coronavirus, the beach is extremely clean.”

“Really? Wasn’t it a rather clean place to begin with?”

“Well, that could be the case… but wouldn’t it have even the slightest effect?”

Tap… click…

They chatted with their colleagues next to them and organized the files distributed to them.

-Wow, you’re Lee Min-ho, right?

-yes that’s right

-I saw it on YouTube. Have you ever really worked in special forces?

-……I have a YouTube channel, but Seojun should watch YouTube a little less.

-yes? no? People say it will definitely happen. He said he may have been deployed somewhere.

-no. I just lived in the military like everyone else and was discharged.

The scene taken during the opening at the airport, before the cast stopped speaking, was used to show Kim Seo-jun’s idiotic side.

-♩♪~♩♫♬~

-Wow!!

-You’re really good at magic!

-Clap clap clap clap!!!

-She sings well too!

-Encore! Encore!

Minho and Moon Ji-yu’s street performance, which is pleasing to the eyes and ears, was also cut to be used as a highlight.

The editing team already knew roughly what happened thanks to the information they received from producer Park Tae-jun, but as the video continued, they became more and more confused.

“He said magic was just a hobby and that he got into it because of his body and English skills…”

“If I just broadcast this, I don’t know if people will say it’s fake or CG.”

“Right? He’s really good at it.”

“I was trying to get a nerd character who has a nice body and is good at English, but this is just an all-rounder.”

And the confusion reached its peak when Minho jumped into the wavey sea and rescued a foreign woman.

“……Can I broadcast this?”

“I don’t know either.”

Even after the video ended, the editor, who was silently dazed for a while, muttered that.

In the end, they went to PD Taejun Park and reported.

“Um… PD.”

“Huh? What’s going on?”

Producer Park Tae-jun, who was looking at paperwork, raised his head and asked the editing team that came to see him.

After hesitating for a moment, they voiced their concerns.

“Well… isn’t there a scene where Minho saves a tourist from drowning?”

“Uh, why is that?”

“Our program recommends travel by saying that it is safe outside the blanket. Is it okay to broadcast a video of an accident like this?”

“Well… if you think about it simply, that’s true…”

Producer Taejun Park nodded and explained.

“In the end, the tourist was able to save his life thanks to actor Lee Min-ho. And if it is said that Koreans saved foreign tourists, it will become a hot topic rather than a controversy.”

He took a sip of the coffee placed next to him, quenched his thirst, and continued speaking.

“Gulp… Huh… The reason we said we were safe in the first place was because the epidemic had subsided, right? It’s a separate story from the water accident. Rather, wouldn’t it be possible to use it as data to prevent accidents among people who are excited after traveling for the first time in a long time?”

To be honest, in the eyes of the editing team, it just seemed like PD Park Tae-jun’s cobbled-together logic that was thirsty for viewership ratings, but the people who were at the helm of the program ship here were PD Park Tae-jun and writer Shin Man-jae.

There is no way writer Shin Man-jae would go against producer Park Tae-joon, so his opinion ultimately determines the direction of the program.

They were half convinced and asked what was still bothering them.

“But… wouldn’t there be a problem with the portrait rights of those tourists?”

“Oh, that’s already allowed.”

“Yes?”

Producer Park Tae-jun visited Olivia after she was discharged from the hospital and received permission to broadcast the footage.

Fortunately, the two people had no objection to publicizing Minho’s heroic actions.

Olivia, the victim, also willingly allowed it.

However, to prevent their identities from being identified, it was decided to mosaic their faces.

Producer Taejun Park relayed that fact to the editing team.

“We ended up talking about not having a problem as long as the mosaic is done well.”

The editorial team nodded quietly. That’s what PD Park Tae-jun was like.

Because the PD was so strong-minded, it was a clear material that there was no reason not to use if there was no worry about being held legally responsible.

To be honest, I was worried and went to see PD Park Tae-jun, but the editing team also thought it would be a waste to throw away this lucky scene.

“Okay. Now, while we’re at it, let’s start with the press release.”

“Yes?”

“Ah, in order to increase the number of views or viewership ratings before the program airs, it has to become an issue first.”

“Right… right?”

” Edit Minho’s content first, and make a sample video to distribute to the media.”

“……Okay.”

Today’s original work plan was to edit the entire cut, but the schedule was slightly disrupted due to PD Park Tae-jun’s visit.

Fortunately for the editing team, the content after the accident was relatively okay, so there were no difficulties in editing.

They worked all night long, drinking mixed coffee provided in the office.

Of course, the first issue that started was ‘It’s safe outside the blanket!’ It was SBN’s news channel where the program was broadcast.

[SBN News announcer Kim Gap-sik reports exclusively.

Saipan Island located in the Pacific Ocean. It is a famous resort for people who enjoy marine leisure sports, as it is full of emerald waters, corals, and tropical fish.

It is said that a tourist was swept away by a wave while enjoying snorkeling at a place called Forbidden Island.

Fortunately, it is said that the tourist was safely rescued and received treatment… The rescuer is said to be Lee Min-ho, an influencer who had recently protected a female YouTuber from a stalker. The footage was filmed by the production crew of the reality travel entertainment show ‘It’s Safe Outside the Blanket!’ that was filming at the location.]

Simultaneously with the announcer’s explanation, a video of the situation at the time was played.

[With rain suddenly pouring down as if the sky had never been clear, a tourist couple asks the production crew for help.

(Voice of a middle-aged woman seeking help)

The production crew and cast arrived at the scene with rescue supplies, but the distance was too far, and the person being rescued did not have the energy to hold on to the rescue supplies.

(Screen of a woman holding a rock being swept away by the waves)

When time is running out for rescue workers to arrive, Lee Min-ho jumps into the sea without hesitation.

(Minho jumping into the sea, followed immediately by him getting out of the water carrying an unconscious woman)

Lee Min-ho jumped into the sea with rough waves that could have swept him, and ultimately saved the woman. After receiving artificial respiration and regaining consciousness, she was transported to a nearby hospital and was discharged safely. Like this, the squall…]

Naturally, the news, which was edited and uploaded to YouTube, was quickly shared by other people and became a hot issue.

[What does this mean?]

Who else did Lee Min-ho save?

-This guy’s hobby is just saving people haha.

-Wow… At the end, he walks in the sunlight… He’s just filming a movie, haha.

-What is the wink?

-What on earth did you do while you were closed for a week?

[I don’t understand these bastards who keep sucking at Lee Min-ho.]

Even though he is a homebody, does he have a bad body?

Did you want to win the physical survival program?

Are you good at playing games to the point of being suspected of being hacked?

Did you decide to show some crazy magic at Hapbang?

Have you ever jumped out of a burning building to save a child?

Or did you subdue the knife-wielding stalker without even putting a hand on your body?

Have you ever gone abroad and rescued a drowning tourist and filled him with soup?

I really don’t understand.

-lol

-When I think about it, I think he’s really just a crazy bastard.

-I am also of the same Lee clan. Should I apply for a name change to Lee Min-ho?

-If you write a novel like this, you get criticized.

-Ah, I screwed up one of the Earth’s most likely writers again.

-(Lee Guo Guo Dun~ Con)

[No, I’ll just go and turn on the radio for once]

Should I listen to this exciting news on the news? This is the fish we caught? Quickly turn on the broadcast.

-What kind of crazy person is this?

-lol

-A week off was too much, haha.

ㄴI didn’t do anything during the break other than eating, sleeping, and wrapping haha.

No… no…

-Did you leave it to me to broadcast?

Other news channels and Gukbong YouTube also took the article and produced videos simultaneously.

[“Please help.” A man who jumped in to save an unknown tourist.]

[A Korean man saved a foreigner from drowning.]

[‘Overseas travel water accident’, what do Korean men need to prepare?]

[Why an island turned upside down when a Korean entered the sea… Is he a god?]

And just as much, ‘It’s safe outside the blanket!’ Interest in the program also increased.
