Chapter 188: Star of Asia
After staying in Taiwan for two days, An Yuxi and his entourage returned to South Korea after awarding the award, taking away a bunch of local products, leaving only a piece of the entertainment circle that was overturned, and the next day Taiwan's major newspapers reported on the award ceremony of the Golden Melody Awards, and also mentioned the original singer of "White Moonlight".
Many people are very interested in An Yuxi, but An Yuxi is no longer in Taiwan, so someone found relevant reports in South Korea, and was surprised to find that An Yuxi is not just a new singer.
Since Ahn Woo-seo was born on May 9 and swept the Korean music industry, a month later, the album has sold more than 2.6 million worldwide, and now it has landed in the second place on the Japanese public trust chart, only after Japan's "Variety Singer" Ayumi Hamasaki, which is already a good result for Korean singers! It is now the best result of a Korean male singer on the public trust list! The female singer is Bao'er, this is not more important, more importantly, he is Chinese!
And several English songs in his album have all entered the Billboard billboard list, which is usually difficult for Asian singers to enter, and so far only Kim Beom-so's songs in South Korea have entered, so it is conceivable that now "be_your_want_to_be" is the tenth place, and "soul", a song that was not favored by Ahn Woo-si, began to occupy the first position in the second week! Chinese songs such as "White Moonlight" are also among the top ten in the major Chinese music charts, and this album has achieved such good results, how can this not make the major media in South Korea rejoice!
The four major newspapers, JoongAng Ilbo, Chosun Ilbo, Dong-A Ilbo, and Newangle, also rushed to report on this brilliant achievement, and one album could achieve such good results! This is the miracle and pride of the entire Korean entertainment industry! On the Internet, newspapers, media and news from various TV stations rushed to report the news!
Now the Korean entertainment industry is jubilant, it is completely like a festive atmosphere, this is the first time that a Korean singer's song has entered the top three on the billboard! Not to mention the first place!
Now An Yuxi's popularity in Japan and South Korea can only be described as in full swing! You must know that he has only debuted for four months! Is there a stronger newcomer than him? This is also the most important newcomer in the history of the Korean music industry!
At the same time, S.M Company also put up a promotional poster of An Yuxi in the company building, with the title of "The_top_singer", and he was not sprayed, obviously everyone has recognized his current status.
After hearing that many record companies and singers sent invitations to An Yuxi, the three major TV stations also started to think, and An Yuxi's popular songs on sBs TV station returned but achieved a lot of results, with a rating of 28%! This is the continuous ratings of a popular TV!
An Yuxi never participates in radio programs or variety shows, and even the invitation from sBs TV's "X-man", which is known as the ace variety show, was politely rejected by An Yuxi, because he was not mentally prepared.
So the three major TV stations can only find other ways, such as fighting for the first singing rights of his songs, so basically he will have about three stages on the three major TV stations, which makes many people very envious, this is the treatment of a completely top artist.
At the same time, the three TV stations where An Yuxi sang, KBs's music bank, mBc's music camp, and sBs's popular songs, when he performed on the stage, the ratings basically rose from 6% to 8%, it can be said that An Yuxi is now a guarantee of ratings, mnet TV wanted to invite An Yuxi to participate in the program, but unfortunately Kim Jong-myung politely refused.
After three consecutive championships in popular songs, An Yuxi started the first song of "Snow Flower", and the ratings were crazy to exceed 30% and reach 31%!
To know this kind of music program, the higher the ratings, the harder it becomes! The whole music world is crazy about it...
"Another miracle!"
"An Yuxi is a guarantee of ratings!" This sentence appeared on the front page of the Naver portal and many newspapers, and even the four major newspapers introduced the birth of this miracle in a small space, but it is conceivable that this data may never be surpassed!
"Is the 'golden age' of the song world coming?" There are also websites and newspapers that have posted such a headline, and it has been recognized by many people, and the Korean entertainment industry seems to be entering a golden age.
Since Lee Hyo-ri's strong comeback last year brought a revival to the music industry, Ahn Woo-seo's appearance out of thin air this year seems to represent a new round of Hallyu storm is coming!
In 2002, a major event happened, that is, the South Korea-Japan World Cup was held, and at the same time, the Korean team entered the world semi-finals! This prosperous era has had an unprecedented impact on Korean entertainment and completely changed the pattern of the Korean entertainment market. As we all know, the entertainment industry is an eyeball economy, and it is only by attracting attention that it can achieve economic benefits. But in the face of the World Cup, which is the focus of national attention, the entertainment industry is overshadowed, which is also the reason why sports stars have a higher status than idols and actors. (If the Chinese team scores, I actually don't like football all my time, but suddenly I discovered the charm of football)
Football is a sport that is far more attractive to men than women. Especially after South Korea reached the semi-finals of the World Cup, this enthusiasm has never been higher. Women may have a passion for football because of their relationship with the crowd, but then they will return to the way they were. And men's enthusiasm can be protracted.
Generally speaking, male idol groups have more female fans, while female idol groups have mainly male fans. As a result, under the impact of the World Cup, the women's idol group was forced into a desperate situation. Unable to create value for their companies, many girl idol groups disbanded this year. The most representative ones are ses and Fin.k.L.
And the two hegemons of s.m and DsP at that time were all greatly impacted. The difference is that after the dissolution of H.O.T, there are still myths in the hands of S.M. In 02, when Kim Young-wook was imprisoned, Lee so-man left the United States, and the girl idol group was sluggish, the myth made a great contribution to the survival of S.M. Company.
The DsPs were not so lucky, and after the disbandment of the Crystal Boys in 2001, they only had one group, Fin.K.L, so the DPs suffered the most losses in 2002. In the end, he was forced to disband the group and concentrate the few remaining resources to fully operate Lee Hyori alone.
In 2002, when s.m and DsP were in crisis, JYP and Yg, which had been gaining momentum for a long time, launched their trump cards. The strongest newcomer Rain and se7en debuted (Rain in 2002 and se7en in early 2003). It was with these two trump cards that JYP and YG were able to compete with s.m for the first time. The three major brokerage companies in South Korea were initially formed.
The bleak entertainment industry urgently needs to get out of the shadow of the World Cup and regain its vitality.
At the same time, people of insight in the entertainment industry realized that after the further opening up of the World Cup year, the degree of acceptance of foreign culture by the Korean people has been greatly improved. Some styles that were originally hated by Korean society have been given unprecedented opportunities for development, such as sexiness, personality, and so on.
At this time, Lee Hyo-ri after flying solo launched his first solo album "Ten Minutes", in which the title song Ten Minutes just met the judgment of insiders.
For the purpose of common interests, Lee Hyori has received the overwhelming support of the vast majority of the circle, and they have built momentum for him, trying to make the entertainment industry flourish again through this benchmark.
How popular was Lee Hyo-ri in 2003? It is no exaggeration to say that Lee Hyo-ri far surpassed the PsY in 2012 in South Korea. That year, Li Xiaoli was like an ancient desolate beast, sweeping away all the haze. The whole country of South Korea is caught up in the effect of Lee Hyori, indulging in that sexy goblin.
The unprecedented success of 2003 established Lee Hyo-ri's unparalleled status in the Korean music industry.
"I am the most attractive woman because I am Lee Hyo-ri". No one dared to say this except her.
The times create heroes, which also makes Lee Hyori, who is "invincible in the world"!
And what about An Yuxi? In the eyes of outsiders, he is just a rookie singer, how can he achieve such an achievement? Not only in Japan, but also in the Chinese-speaking world, as well as in the United States, they have all been able to achieve such remarkable results! This is a sign of prosperity in the music industry! No one knows that the two most crucial factors are from An Dingbang and An Yuxi.
The blossoming inside the wall, both inside and outside the wall, is so hot that everyone has to attribute his success to the imminent "golden age".
An Yuxi's great achievements in the world, for a while, the first pages of major entertainment newspapers were all cover photos of An Yuxi's albums! As long as the newspapers related to An Yuxi are definitely sold out in an instant, and many people are paying attention to An Yuxi's latest results on the Billboard chart, which also makes people wonder where the limits of this album and this person are, and how many honors can be won! This is what a lot of media and agencies are looking at.
After logging in to the Korean website, I found that the homepage was all photos of An Yuxi, and at the same time learned about the relevant media friends in South Korea, only to learn that An Yuxi's popularity is so hot in South Korea, and a newspaper in Taiwan "Next Magazine" was shocked after learning about An Yuxi, this kind of achievement is not only in South Korea, but also unique in Asia!
"Fame at a young age!" "As the sun is shining!" The editor-in-chief was surprised and had countless ideas in his head, and finally just listed Ahn Woo-shi's achievements so far after his debut in South Korea, because it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the "Top_star" of South Korea!
The report also shook Baodao and the Chinese music scene, it turned out that the boy who was only 19 years old is actually the highest star in South Korea now!
An "Asian Star" is rising!
