Chapter 44: The Backstage Before the Return
On the afternoon of July 1, in front of the KBS TV studio, a group of fans were standing there very quietly, not noisy or noisy, and they listened to the command one after another on the edge of the small square.
"Grace, today is the return of Ernie to the stage, are we having enough?"
Among them, a female fan suddenly felt a little worried, and looked nervously at her partner and asked softly.
Then her companion, who was holding the supporter, glanced at the friend beside her, chuckled and touched her head, "Don't worry, except for us." We're also teaming up with Tiffany's fans, so there's no need to be afraid of numbers. And I heard that F-Oni is also here. ”
But it's not surprising that Taeyeon Oni's second album is back, and F Oni won't miss it. The girl who asked the question before was a little surprised at first, and then quickly calmed down.
"Yes, that's what I thought, too. The girl next to her smiled and nodded, "Okay, it's time to enter, let's go in." ”
……
……
And when the fans outside the studio hall are entering the venue one after another, inside the backstage of the music bank. Kim Taeyeon, the protagonist of today's return, is also sitting quietly in front of the makeup table at this time, asking her makeup artist to touch up her makeup. Sitting next to him is Tiffany, who is playing a song with Kim Taeyeon today.
It's just that Tiffany's head is looking around with curiosity at this time. This was quickly stopped by her makeup artist, "Pani, don't move, I won't be able to work this way." ”
"Yes, Ernie. After being said, Tiffany held back her curiosity and stopped looking. But within two minutes, he asked Kim Taeyeon, "Taeyeon, what about your dance partner today, why haven't I seen it until now?" It's not going to be a run, it's really powerful enough. ”
After listening to Kim Taeyeon, who was touching up her makeup, she also pursed her mouth and replied very depressedly, "When we came here, he just got up, and according to the time, it should be almost there?"
"Just woke up?" Tiffany was surprised and turned to look at Kim Taeyeon, "What, what's the situation, it's afternoon." Why did he just get up, did you practice late last night? But it's not right, Taeyeon, you also got up early in the morning. ”
"No, I just heard that he went to visit So-hyun last night. Then I probed and it was all night. Kim Taeyeon thought of what she heard when she called that bastard this morning, and her whole face darkened. Knowing that today is his return, he dared to run away the night before and spend the night. Suddenly, Kim Taeyeon felt that this guy had no restraints of his own, he was really playing without a frame and a bottom line.
And Tiffany, who heard the situation clearly, also suddenly had an expression, "Ah, I see." ”
Then, maybe it's a coincidence. When the two of them had just finished chatting about Lin Xi, he himself walked in from the door of the lounge. But the mental aspect is fine, and there is no loss of consciousness after an all-night night.
"Sorry, I'm late. "If you do something wrong, you will admit it. In this regard, Lin Xi did not hesitate to apologize, and as soon as he entered the door, he said a word to the backup dancers who were in the lounge.
Fortunately, because everyone has just arrived, the rehearsal has not yet started, so there is nothing to say. It's just that Kim Taeyeon handed over a sentence lightly, "Yo, I finally woke up, I thought you were going to release my pigeon." ”
Facing Kim Taeyeon over there, Lin Xi wisely chose to be silent and did not make any answer. Then, under the leadership of the accompanying dancers, I changed into the singing costume I was going to wear today. Finally, I sat down in the very corner of the dressing table. With the help of a makeup artist's assistant, I took care of my hair.
Although it is said that Lin Xi has simply taken care of it before going out. But now it's going to be performed on stage, so I continue to process it.
At this time, those backup dancers who had a good relationship with Lin Xi finally came over and looked at him with some envy, "Lin Xi, I heard that you have a good relationship with Jin Suxian." Can you ask her for a few autographed photos if you have time? ”
"Su Xian's autographed photo?" Lin Xi, who heard this, said, "What, I know a lot of idols and actors." I've seen people ask me for signed photos of Girls' Generation, or other girl groups, but I've never heard anyone ask me for a signed photo of Xiao Soxian. ”
"Hehe, that's someone else, I'm me. The backup dancer also scratched his head a little funny.
"Well, anyway, I'm going to go to her after the show, and I'll help you ask by the way. "When I went to visit the class last night, Lin Xi, who had already made an appointment with Kim So-hyun for dinner tonight, also directly agreed to this gesture.
When the male partner danced to it, he was also very excited and gestured. Then, the rest of the male backup dancers naturally won't let go of this opportunity, although they don't like Kim So-hyun very much, but they don't hate it either. They were also very excited to get a signed photo.
So in this way, during the time that Lin Xi was taking care of his hair, he had already booked more than 10 signed photos for Kim So-hyun. But even if it is doubled, it is estimated that the little girl will not refuse Lin Xi's request. After all, she herself could make even more excessive demands on Lin Xi. If it weren't for the problem of age, it is estimated that Lin Xi would have been pushed back by her.
A few minutes later, Kim Taeyeon, who had finished her makeup, walked over and looked at Lin Hee, who was memorizing some sentences from those who wanted to sign autographs, and felt a little surprised in her heart, "Ah, you will make an appointment with Sohyun after the performance?"
Glancing sideways at Kim Taeyeon who was walking this way, Lin Xi nodded, "Well, yes." ”
"You haven't forgotten that tonight, we're going to shoot the MV. Hearing this answer, Kim Tae-yeon's beautiful nose also wrinkled slightly, and she hurriedly asked.
"Don't worry, I didn't forget, I just went to dinner with her. After all, I'm going back to China tomorrow, and I haven't had a good meal with her this time. After finishing the words, Lin Xi put the small card back into his changed clothes, ready to let Jin Suxian write it down when the time came.
However, Kim Taeyeon was already stunned by some of the things he said. After being stunned for a while, he asked in surprise, "You said you were going back tomorrow?"
The impatient and surprised tone also made Lin Xi's eyes look over. After seeing the expression on Kim Taeyeon's face, he also pursed his lips before answering, "Well, the tickets have already been booked." In terms of invitations, I also sent them to Xiujing in the past few days. So, after this is over, it's time for me to go back, I've been here for more than a month. I've been working for so long, and if I don't go back, Li Ran will really fire me. ”
Kim Taeyeon, who instinctively wanted to continue to speak, couldn't find the source of the opening now. As Lin Xi said, for his own matter, he has put down his work for a long time. Since it's all like this, how can Kim Taeyeon open his mouth to keep it. Therefore, she was silent, and the nervous and excited mood that was originally due to her return to the stage was suddenly lost and empty.
It wasn't until Kim Jung's return that he could go on stage to rehearse that Kim Taeyeon came back to his senses. Then he subconsciously looked up at Lin Xi's side, and found that he was also taking out the mask he had designed casually from the small bag he was carrying at this time.
The style of the mask is quite ordinary, and the material is also a very comfortable cotton mask. It's just that the pattern on it makes it a little eye-catching. A mouth-shaped pattern resembling a European demon vampire is directly printed on it, and then rows of mysterious and attractive lines are engraved around this pattern.
After Lin Xi put on the mask, everyone also walked out of the lounge together. Then, in the hallway, I happened to run into Tiffany, who had returned from rehearsal. After chatting with Kim Jung and Kim Taeyeon, the next thing Tiffany noticed was Lin Xi wearing a mask, and her beautiful eyes lit up all of a sudden.
"Wow, this mask is so cool. Lin Xi, this is your own design?"
Nodding, Lin Xi did not deny it. In fact, when he designed his mask, S&M's backup dancers also expressed that they wanted Lin Xi to help him design one, but they were naturally stopped by Kim Taeyeon and Kim Jeong. A genius designer who is famous as the creative director of Louis Vuitton headquarters came to dance with him, not to mention, he actually asked someone to help design the mask, then he really raised a knife to slaughter chickens.
"Hee-hee, if you help me design one, you'll definitely run out of time. Alas, I knew your mask was so cool, so I took one and changed it with you. Tiffany muttered a little depressed.
Then, before Lin Xi could speak, Kim Taeyeon in front turned around and shouted, "What are you doing, it's time to rehearse." ”
When Tiffany heard this, she also stuck out her tongue in disgust, "By the way, I won't bother you to go to the rehearsal, come on." With that, he returned to the rest room.
And when Lin Xi followed Kim Taeyeon's side, the villain directly said, "This mask belongs to me, you are not allowed to change it with others." It seems that Kim Taeyeon also heard Tiffany's words just now.
"I didn't think about changing it, and I wore it. As soon as he heard Kim Taeyeon's words, Lin Xi was also confused. He never thought about changing masks for others, anyway, it will be cold in a few months, and he will use it. When I go back to Beijing, I also need to use it. In that case, why change it? Therefore, I hurriedly found a reason.
"I don't dislike it, you still dislike me. Then, Kim Taeyeon was also angry. I've talked about it myself, why doesn't he understand. How can this person become so stupid when he is with him?
"No, to you, to you. At this time, Lin Xi seemed to be possessed by Gary of RunningMan, and the expression and tone of the whole person were exactly the same as the answer when Song Zhixiao asked him on the morning of that issue of 'Flower Tea'.
After getting the answer she wanted, Kim Tae-yeon didn't continue to talk to Lin Xi. Instead, I walked over and chatted with the director, director, lighting, musicians and others about the matters to be paid attention to on the next stage. And Lin Xi also followed the footsteps of the accompanying dancer and became familiar with the stage, so as not to wait for the next time to be unfamiliar with the stage, it would be bad if he moved in the wrong position.
It's just that at this time, there are actually fans in the audience. Therefore, when Kim Taeyeon appeared, there was also a burst of cheers at the scene.
Then, Lin Xi, who was measuring his footsteps on the stage, also seemed to hear someone shouting about himself. But it's a bit strange to be called, what is 'that weird guy in a mask'?
The depressed Lin Xi turned his head to look at the audience, and then he found the F who was standing at the forefront and looking at him with a smile. Then the eyes exposed outside the mask also conveyed an 'unexpected' gaze, when I saw F gesturing and looking at himself asking why he was here. Lin Xi spread his hand helplessly, shrugged his shoulders, and took it as an answer.
"Lin Xi, Lin Xi, come here, come here. ”
At this time, Jin Zheng next to him also called Lin Xi over. After Lin Xi came over, he said, "When it comes to rehearsals, don't go on the stage first." It's just a rehearsal for Taeyeon and the other backup dancers, so that when the actual performance comes, the atmosphere in the audience will be more lively, do you think it's okay?"
"I don't care, it's pretty much the same anyway. Regarding Jin Zheng's arrangement, Lin Xi also had no idea. After all, people are professionals.
"I'm just worried that you haven't rehearsed with Taeyeon on this stage, and then when you actually go on stage, you'll have an accident. So, I need you to give me an answer now. Jin Zheng looked at Lin Xi very seriously, he didn't want to mess up this return to the stage.
However, for Lin Xi, who has been practicing for more than a month and rehearsing a dance, he still has this confidence, "As long as it is not an accident on the live stage, as well as an accident with a dance partner, I have no problem personally." "Even if he is a newcomer to dance, he can make up for his clumsiness with diligence. In the past month or so, the time he has spent practicing dance can be said to be several times that of Kim Taeyeon.
"That's fine, you just wait and stand next to you and pay attention to the position on the stage, and don't make a mistake later. After getting this answer and knowing Lin Xi's character of doing what he said, Jin Zheng was finally relieved.
A few minutes later, Lin Xi, who stood on the edge of such a stage to watch the performance for the first time, had no other mind to enjoy the performance. Instead, he stared very seriously at the cooperation of Kim Taeyeon and the other dance partners on the stage, remembering the direction and rhythm of their movements, so as not to wait for embarrassment.
The rehearsal time soon ended, and Lin Xi followed everyone back to the lounge, waiting for the official stage for a while.
