Chapter 46: Okinawa
Formerly known as Ryukyu, Okinawa is located between Taiwan in China and Kyushu in Japan, adjacent to the famous city of Kagoshima. Because it is located in a subtropical region, it is hot and rainy in summer, while warm and rainy in winter. Due to its location in the western Pacific Ocean, it is also influenced by the oceanic climate, with an average atmosphere of 23°C throughout the year, and the rainy season is concentrated between April and June.
Okinawa Prefecture is made up of many islands, and most of the inhabitants are located in the southern and central parts of Okinawa. The main island, Okinawa, is an island that is narrow from east to west and long from north to south.
With sapphire-sparkling seas, white sand beaches, beautiful coral reefs, a variety of subtropical plants and subtropical scenery, and the surrounding sea is considered one of the world's most beautiful scenery, rich in marine life, and ancient cultural traditions and cultural heritage, it is a great place to visit, and diving is one of the most attractive activities in Okinawa.
Tourism is the most developed economy, and the main purpose of tourists visiting Okinawa is leisure tourism with tropical scenery and sunshine and beaches.
The location of this shoot is Onna Village, on the west coast of Okinawa, which has become a gathering area for resort hotels due to its long coastline and clear water.
The hotel that provided assistance in the shooting this time was the best hotel in Onna Village, the Kraft Resort Hotel.
The Kraft Hotel is separated from the sea by a road, and the balcony of the bedroom hides the road and directly faces the sea. The overall superb Japanese service, as well as the world-famous diving spots not far away, make this hotel continue to increase its popularity.
Deeply influenced by the Hallyu drama, when the president of Kraft Hotel learned that KBS's upcoming drama "Shark" was going to come to Okinawa to shoot the location, he was the first to consult with KBS TV.
The end result was that the Kraft Hotel provided room and board for the Shark crew during filming in Okinawa and assisted with the filming. KBS, on the other hand, only needs to promote the Kraft Hotel when the TV series is broadcast.
Originally, the crew had negotiated with the Kraft Hotel to fly to Okinawa on the 11th of this month for a four-day shooting, but due to Kim Nam-gil's accident, the actor was re-selected, and the relevant shots were re-filmed. Only then did the crew set off on the 17th and flew to Japan.

The plane arrived at Okinawa Naha Airport on time.
Because he got up a little early, as soon as he got on the plane, Sun Shaoye fell asleep in a chair. It wasn't until he got off the plane that he was woken up by Son Ye-jin, who was sitting next to him.
After getting off the plane, Sun Shaoye and Jin Zhilan brought a total of two suitcases, two backpacks and Jin Zhilan's handbag.
Soon the two of them had packed their luggage and prepared to walk towards the bus parked outside the airport. But when he saw Son Ye-jin and her two assistants, worried about five or six suitcases, Sun Shaoye asked Kim Zhilan to push the luggage cart to the bus first.
"Ye-jin, I'll take this." Although one of the two assistants is a male assistant, he can't take one male assistant.
Although there is also a female assistant, the female assistant can take a few. So Sun Shaoye, who couldn't stand it, walked over and took the initiative to help Son Ye-jin with his luggage.
"Thank you." said and smiled shyly, in fact, what she wanted to say in her heart was, why didn't you come over earlier to help me with my luggage.
The luggage was divided into two luggage carts, and it was barely loaded. The assistants didn't have much luggage, and the two assistants had already finished loading it in a luggage cart.
Then Sun Shaoye and two assistants, one of whom pushed a luggage cart, walked towards the outside of the airport.
Unexpectedly, the people who were not discovered by reporters at Incheon Airport were blocked by many media at Naha Airport. and the fans who came to inquire, and they simply surrounded the airport.
The flash kept flashing, and it was almost blind Sun Shaoye's eyes. At this time, he hurriedly took out the sunglasses in his pocket and put them on, while secretly regretting that he had not obeyed Jin Zhilan's advice just now, and put on the sunglasses.
"Son Ye-jin xi, what do you think about the change of the actor in the crew of "Shark" this time?"
"Son Ye-jin-kun, what do you think about Kim Nam-jun's injury this time?"
"Miss Son Ye-jin, because of the change of actor, are you worried about the decrease in ratings?"
…………
A series of questions makes people feel a little headache when they hear it. Although these reporters all speak Korean, Korean with a Japanese accent is really not good.
Coupled with the screams of many fans, the originally quiet airport has become like a vegetable market.
If it weren't for the railings to intercept it, I'm afraid everyone would have been flooded by the sea of people by now. After the director who had just finished taking the equipment, after coming out to see this scene, he immediately contacted the person in charge of the airport to arrange a VIP channel and let everyone know each other.
While waiting, Son Ye-jin generously took it off and waved to the fans present from time to time.
In response to the reporters' questions, they all responded that "we will make a statement on the official website later".
After waving goodbye to the fans in the airport, the crew of "Shark" walked along the VIP passage to the underground parking lot.
…………
After finally sitting in the car, Sun Shaoye couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he knew that the fans were crazy, but he didn't expect it to be so crazy.
When I just saw Son Ye-jin about to go through the VIP channel, a male fan actually rushed over the railing towards Son Ye-jin. Fortunately, the security guards reacted quickly, otherwise something bad would definitely happen.
"Hehe, I'm afraid." Handing the mineral water in his hand to Sun Shaoye, Jin Zhilan said with a smile, "When you become more and more famous, your fans will also drop like this." ”
"If I'm so crazy about fans in the future, I'd rather not have a reputation in the future." Perhaps frightened by these crazy fans, Sun Shaoye said something extremely taboo among artists.
"Bah, Sun Shaoye, don't say that in the future, it will be unlucky." After Jin Zhilan heard this, she pinched Sun Shaoye's arm fiercely, saw Sun Shaoye's distorted expression, and swore not to say so in the future, before letting him go.
Rubbing his sore arm, Sun Shaoye looked out the window. Okinawa in early summer is a good time to travel, with pale yellow sand beaches and deep blue coastline attracting the attention of everyone on the bus.
From time to time, there were exclamations from the car, as well as the sound left by the shutter of the camera.
Unlike the sea in the United States, the Japanese are very strict about the environment, so even if you look at the sea from a distance, you can see that the water is clean and thorough.
This made Sun Shaoye can't help but glance at Japan.
…………
Soon the car arrived at the Kraft Resort Hotel, and everyone got out of the car with the room card that had just been issued in the car.
According to the hotel's arrangement, the actors and directors are in one room, while the actors' assistants and other crew members are in one room.
After moving their luggage from the car, everyone followed the hotel staff and walked towards their rooms.
The moment I opened the door, I saw the endless sea outside the window through the floor-to-ceiling window facing the door. Sun Shaoye suddenly felt refreshed, and the impetuousness just now instantly precipitated.
Walking into the room quickly, the floor-to-ceiling windows were opened, and the slightly salty sea breeze blew straight in.
