Chapter Eighty-Seven: Cui Zhenzhen Under the Mask (Shirley)
Junsu and Shirley sit in the café waiting for coffee, probably because it's close to Central Park, so the business of this shop is very good. People who play picnics inside like to buy a cup of coffee to take inside, or come out and buy a cup or something when they are thirsty inside. The waiting time was a little longer, and it happened that Junsu and Shirley were sitting in an empty seat chatting.
Perhaps it's the pedestrians around Central Park who exude a charming 'air of freedom'. Especially in this afternoon sun, everyone seems to be lazy, there are children running on the lawn not far away, and there are also families and sweet couples cuddling and cuddling on the lawn not far away. The pace of life in Central Park has slowed down in fast-paced New York.
Everything here is relaxing. But where can Junxiu and the others' careers be relaxed? Shirley, looking enviously at the people who came to the park together outside the window, their lives are so comfortable in Shirley's eyes at this moment.
When she successfully stood on the stage, when she was loved by the people, suddenly Shirley had the illusion that her dream had come true. It may also be because the fans' love came so quickly, which made her herself a little unable to react. In addition, the people's love for her is the love of Shirley in F(x). However, that affection, that burden of popularity, made her feel a sudden fear.
Because Shirley herself knows very well that Shirley standing on the stage is not herself. Shirley on the stage is a combination setting, because of her cute appearance, so she is positioned on the cute little sister next door. is such a role setting, which makes her have a sense of gain and loss, and she is afraid that she will be disappointed when everyone finds out that Shirley and the actual Cui Zhenzhen on the stage are two people!
This is also the reason why she found Junsu today to ask for an explanation. Junsu is not a psychologist, he can only tell her that Shirley on stage is 'work'. It's like when you work part-time, you have to play the same role as you do the job. Maybe you are a waiter at work, then you will do your service work. As for private life, I'll wait until I get off work.
This is the only help Junsu can give her, psychologically, Junxiu is not a strong point. He hadn't experienced the pain of exhaustion himself, so he really didn't know how to deal with the illness in Shirley's heart. Junxiu is a singer and a senior in his career, but he is not a doctor.
Junsu only knows that there is a psychological problem, so it is really a serious matter. The pressure of artists, especially Korean artists, is very high, so only Shirley herself knows the hardships.
Like Shirley said, she really wants to be herself. On stage, off stage, I want to be real. It's easy to be an ordinary person, but it's difficult to be an artist who attracts fans to eat. Either they don't have any 'character settings' in the first place, just like Girls' Generation, they don't have any settings, and the personalities and images of the nine of them don't overlap.
In addition, after their group variety show, everyone knew the charm of their nine people and nine colors, and their true colors were also completely revealed in the group variety show, which made fans like their unpretentious, noisy and noisy Girls' Generation, and the booming Girls' Generation, which are all girls' generations that fans love!
And Shirley's image has been fixed for a long time, so it is very difficult for her to change at this time, because once she shows her true colors, how many fans who like the sister next door will stay to support her?
All kinds of emotions and various interests are intertwined, which makes Shirley herself know that she can't easily change her screen image. And will this backlog of mental illness explode one day in the future? Junxiu is not clear.
.......
Shirley said that all her youth was dedicated to the practice room, which made Junxiu, who was sitting next to her, smile and shake her head: "Ah, you actually said youth in front of me, an 85-year-old student? Because you're still young, aren't you? You're much younger than me, you're still underage, your youth hasn't finished yet, what's a waste? And this path is also our own choice, so ah, put your heart at ease, even if you think Shirley on the stage is wearing a 'mask', don't hate 'her'. ”
Junxiu didn't know how much of a difference her words would have, but if she said it, he would say it, maybe it would be able to calm her mind temporarily, right? Anyway, Shirley laughed at this time, and she didn't care if the smile was true or not. Maybe this kind of exchange is a little comforting, right?
Shirley smiled and said to Junxiu, "Oppa, were you in love when you were a trainee?" In the past, Park Youtian's predecessors were all in the trainee period and Park Jiaxi's predecessors... Hehe. ”
Maybe it's really out of adolescence, so she seems to be in love, and she's become enthusiastic about gossip. She actually inquired into Junxiu's privacy at this time?
Junsu smiled and replied to Shirley in ambiguous words, "Guess what?"
"Yes~~~, right? I seem to have heard what Little Crystal said. ”
When Jun-so and Lee Yeon-hee fell in love, Sika, their older generation of trainees knew it. Maybe Sika came home and talked to her sister about it, and Shirley is the best ordinary for Little Crystal, so it's what she is now?
"You're absolutely not going to be able to do it at this time anyway. First of all, you have signed a relationship prohibition agreement with the company, right? And you're underage. ”
"What does love have to do with being underage? Nowadays, middle and high school students, it's normal to be in love, and I've also watched Japanese 'action movies'. ”
"Ah~~~" Just when Junxiu didn't know how to respond to this open-minded 'Choi Truth', a reminder from the machine for taking coffee appeared, and Junxiu gave the machine to Shirley: "Where to go for coffee, and what about action movies?"
"oppa, what time is this? hahaha.." Shirley smiled and picked up the machine to get coffee, and Junsu shook his head with a wry smile and got up with her.
Between men and women, how can such an 'in-depth' topic be talked about between such brothers and sisters. She's not shy, Junxiu is still shy.
