Chapter 41: Between Rivals
readx; MBC's "Show! Music Center" is a live-streamed music program once a week, featuring popular songs from the recent period, which is very popular in Korea, and singers will strive to participate in the show during the promotion period of albums and singles. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Lee Seung-hyun looked at Kim Hyun-joong who was walking in front of him, and only then did he remember that he is now one of the hosts of this show, and today is also the day of recording the show.
"I heard you're going to Japan?" Lee Seung-hyun held up Kim Seung-hoon, who was a little unstable, and asked Kim Hyun-joong, who was silent next to him. His tall figure is about the same as Lee Seung-hyun, and Kim Hyun-joong is a little more heroic in comparison.
Kim Hyun-joong looked at Lee Seung-hyun at a glance, this opponent he met on the highway, but he had a good impression of him, since his debut, he participated in SBS's ace variety show "X-Man", which can be regarded as taking the first step in his own variety show, after having a role that can make the audience pay attention, the next thing is naturally to extend the performance in line with the character image from the role, in fact, in the final analysis, variety shows and TV movies are somewhat related, and their main theme is to perform around their own roles, Whether it's a movie role or a variety show role. At least he has had the opportunity to perform in two TV series, although he will give up some things now, and the boy in front of him is far more bumpy than the road he walked.
"Yes, the company has already determined the itinerary, and it will go to Japan in March to develop, what, do you want to be a host?" The cold wind blew Kim Hyun-joong's long hair, and his sculpted-like face was like a landscape under the illumination of the street lamp.
In fact, most of Lee Seung-hyun's understanding of variety shows also benefits from the prodigy who has rich experience in variety shows and cares very much about his juniors, and occasionally Kim Hee-cheol, who claims to be a genius artist, to make up for himself, he glanced at Kim Hyun-joong and sighed deeply.
"You are a five-on-one choice, I am one of thirteen, and South Korea is so xenophobic, I guess it will be difficult to have a chance." Lee Seung-hyun explained.
After meeting Lee Seung-hyun for a period of time, Kim Hyun-joong also slowly cared about the development of SJ, judging from the current situation, the resources of their group are mainly focused on the Korean members, running back and forth in variety shows, reversal dramas and radio broadcasts, although SJ's days are not very busy, but how much can the outside world know about this group, you must know that what people are most afraid of is blindly moving forward without any direction, it seems that Lee Seung-hyun lacks the goal and confidence to move forward.
"What were you thinking about when you debuted? Are you thinking, you have to do a big job? In the middle of the night, the flickering street lamps tugged at the wall hanging that supported him, the shadows of the three of them flickered left and right, and the alley that came out of the small restaurant was silent, except for Kim Seung-hoon's magnetic voice echoing in the air.
"Ah, at that time, ・・・・・・・・" Lee Seung-hyun was a little distracted, because he couldn't remember the picture of himself at that time, he said respectfully that he would work hard, or clenched his fists, waved vigorously, and then shouted, "I will definitely succeed." "But the reality in front of you has nothing to do with the picture in front of you.
"Confused and overwhelmed, or unwilling, are you really willing to just be a background?" Without showing too much surprise, Kim Hyun-joong seemed to see Lee Seung-hyun's thoughts clearly, and he began to hit Lee Seung-hyun's confused mind with his words. He has also experienced this time, but now he uses the words that others persuaded him at that time to Lee Seung-hyun.
"I've been interested in music since I was in middle school, and before I joined DSP, I was about to make my debut as a five-member dance group, but I was disappointed when the company suddenly merged and dissolved. Later, when I was working part-time, I also encountered it once, but after inquiring, I learned that the company was illegal. Kim Hyun has been a trainee for longer than Lee Seung-hyun, and he also knows everyone's dedication to debut.
"What about me? It was just that by chance that I was chosen......" Lee Seung-hyun hugged Kim Seung-hoon, who was unsteady on his feet, and said with a smile about his debut opportunity.
"You see, everyone's opportunities are different, but that's not an excuse for us not to work hard." Kim Hyun frowned, rubbed his temples vigorously with both hands, and after drinking, his head began to hurt a little when he was blown by the wind.
"Looks like you're not in a good mood either?" It's rare to see Kim Hyun-joong say such emotional words today, Lee Seung-hyun knows that the other party is not so relaxed, "The relationship with the members is not very close, and some things still can't be open-minded...... "I know my own things, and Lee Seung-hyun can guess a thing or two when he looks at Kim Hyun-joong's expression.
"Yes, I got far more attention in the group than they did, as if there was a wall ......between me and them," Kim Hyun sighed, describing the invisible wall truthfully, he had far more opportunities to participate in "X-Man" and other variety shows than the members, and originally thought that he could get more attention from the group, but when he came back to his senses, he found that he had also begun to distance himself from the members.
"We're rivals, right?" Kim Hyun-joong took a few steps back, and looked at Lee Seung-hyun slowly moving his steps as he helped Kim Seung-hoon, who was a little drunk and unconscious, and looked at him with a very sincere expression.
Lee Seung-hyun has been learning the dance is not very difficult, and SJ's dance also has a lot of details, which is far from the dance of the five, and the positioning of SS501 is more of a quiet youth, and SJ is like a young man out of a rebellious period, isn't it equal? Lee Seung-hyun couldn't find the words, but nodded anyway.
Suddenly, Kim Hyun-joong began to swing his body, and after a few movements, Lee Seung-hyun saw that it was the choreography of the wings of the world, and just like that, in the dance practice over and over again in the alley under the street lamp, only one person's dance seemed to be less imposing, and at this time there were two people standing next to him, a person who needed sleep and a person who needed confidence.
In the show "X-Man", Lee Seung-hyun once watched each other's dances and watched his performance in the show, he is a big boy who is loved by everyone, but his figure at the moment looks a little lonely.
"Ah~" When Kim Hyun-joong stopped, after expressing his sigh for Kim Hyun-joong's dance with applause, Lee Seung-hyun said: "Fortunately, our company's positioning of our group does not coincide with your group......"
"We are rivals, but we are also friends!" I wiped the fine sweat from my forehead with my hands, and the exercise after drinking was far more powerful than usual.
"Yes, we are friends......" Lee Seung-hyun nodded vigorously and hugged Kim Hyun-joong forcefully, while Kim Seung-hoon muttered a few words, "Come on, let's drink again・・・・・・・・"
"Send him back first, do you go back by yourself or together," ignoring Kim Hyun-joong, who was already smiling on the side, Lee Seung-hyun patted Kim Seung-hoon on the back with his hand and asked Kim Hyun-joong.
"Let's go together, send Seunghoon first, and then I'll go back." The two of them began to walk towards the side of the avenue with Kim Seung-hoon, Kim Hyun repeatedly told him about the difficulty of practicing dance, and Lee Seung-hyun on the other side complained that the place where Kim Hyun was re-elected was too remote, "I didn't expect that there is such a poor place in South Korea?" ”
"There are rich and poor people in every city, in other words, I am an artist to become a rich man......" Kim Hyun-joong has long been accustomed to Lee Seung-hyun's complaints.
"By the way, didn't you go to record it several times when you were X-Man? Seeing Kim Jong Kook's seniors, is his scandal really ......" Lee Seung-hyun, who finally got into the car, began to gossip, Kim Hyun-joong has obtained the third-level qualification certificate of Chinese character qualification ability, or Kim Hyun-joong himself said it, Lee Seung-hyun at the moment is in Chinese.
"Oh, I don't know either!" Kim Hyun-joong stumbled to answer Lee Seung-hyun's question in Chinese, many Korean variety shows have a process, so that the director can master the recording process, of course, occasionally there will be guests who will suddenly shine and say some bright words or actions.
"It's a pity, I thought it was true~" Lee Seung-hyun muttered.
