“Pay attention to using your microexpressions to transmit your emotions instead of using big movements or big expressions. At the same time, you can also use other actions like lowering your head or turning your head to hide your emotions.”
Ji Jun continued to guide Yu Han. “And most importantly, you’re not only facing Gu Su, but also the audience. Hence, the effect you have to show to both sides is different. To Gu Su, you’re the silent and stubborn traitor Liu Mei, but to the audience, you’re the undercover Liu Mei, who has many emotions but can only hide them under a calm surface.”
Many actors did not realize this problem when they were acting. Or even if they did, they could not comprehend the techniques inside. Hence, the effect was not satisfactory when they were acting.

Ji Jun’s words made Yu Han feel enlightened. She stared at the script and fell into deep thought for a long time.
During this period, Ji Jun sat on the rattan chair opposite her and did not disturb her.
As the saying went, acting depended on oneself. Ji Jun had taught her most of the techniques that needed to be taught. As for how much Yu Han could comprehend and how effective it would be in the end, it would depend on her.
Ji Jun leaned back in his chair leisurely. His eyes seemed to be fixed on the script, but he kept paying attention to Yu Han’s condition from the corner of his eye.
20 minutes later, Yu Han finally came back to her senses. “I have an idea. Let’s try it again.”
Hence, Ji Jun picked up his cell phone and used it to film her again. This time, it was obviously much better than the previous few times.
Ji Jun pulled the progress bar back and forth a few times and pointed out a few inadequacies for her to improve.
Hence, Yu Han acted a few more times. Finally, she figured out every detail, every gaze, and every microexpression before Ji Jun relented. “Sure. As long as you can perform at this standard tomorrow, I don’t think Director Sun will make things difficult for you anymore.”
Yu Han heaved a sigh of relief, but she did not look relaxed. She frowned and said, “I’m acting in a lazy manner, right?” During the process of acting this scene just now, Yu Han knew very well that she was not 100% engrossed in her emotions. To put it bluntly, she was not completely immersed in the scene. She relied on her skills to complete this scene.
Ji Jun chuckled. “Do you think every actor can get into character easily?”
Yu Han had never learned professional acting, so she did not know much about acting. Hearing Ji Jun’s words, she immediately perked up and looked at him with shining eyes, wanting him to say more.

“I believe you’ve heard it before. Generally, actors are divided into two genres. One is performance actors, and the other is experience actors. The experience actors will completely integrate themselves into the role. You just used skills to complete the output of the role, so you are a performance actor, which is also called method actor.”
Although the effects of these two were different, it was hard to say who was better and who was worse. After all, everyone’s understanding of the role was different. Immersive acting skills could indeed completely stimulate an actor’s explosive power towards the role, but if the actor’s understanding of the role deviated, the opposite effect would also be fatal.
The method acting style could indeed allow the actors to grasp a role more accurately, but it was also easy for the actors to fall into the cliche and act routinely.
After listening to Ji Jun’s explanation, Yu Han recalled that her acting was still more inclined to methodology overall, so she was a little curious. “Then are you more inclined to experience or theoretical acting?”
Ji Jun nodded reservedly. “Good actors use both.” He was not so inflexible. At the moment, he would adopt whichever acting method could perform better.
Although Ji Jun could already be considered an old actor in terms of his debut age, as a young actor in his twenties, Ji Jun knew very well that his life experience was still too little..
