Chapter 7 The First Connections in Mapo
After the interview, Lee Chi Hyun left Yeouido MBC. After seeing the recording of many programs, my curiosity about the TV station is not as strong as before, and I have no interest in continuing to visit.
Sitting on the subway, I took out my mobile phone to check the class schedule, and there were no classes in the afternoon school, and Li Zhixian, who had no arrangement, didn't know where to go.
sent a text message to Yu Zhihao at random, and then put on headphones and prepared to listen to the recently released new song to spend the boring rush time, without deliberately waiting for Yu Zhihao's reply, the artist's schedule has no rules to follow, if it is recording or recording time, there is no time to check the mobile phone.
Lee Chi-hyun clicked on the music player, searched for the recently released new songs, and saw the new album of Girls' Generation at a glance in the recommended list.

Li Zhixian secretly speculated that the name of the Girls' Generation album was implying that he had a boyfriend?
He rarely pays attention to showbiz news, so he doesn't know that there are already members who have announced their relationship.
Flipping through the comments below, sure enough, most of the comments are discussing the same issue.
"Are you going to be in love? Andui! "Girlhood must not fall in love!" "The transformation was successful, Girls' Generation fighting!" "The style of the new song this time is a little confusing" and so on, and there are few comments on the song itself.
Suddenly, he found that there was a song with a very familiar title, which immediately attracted his attention.
Clicking on the audition, Li Zhixian sat on the subway seat and frowned and fell into temporary contemplation.
The 3-minute song was played quickly, and Lee Ji-hyun came back to his senses and continued to scroll down the recommended list, and found that VerbalJint also recently released a new single, and the song title was "It's Good to Start".
Verbaljint has been one of Lee's favorite rappers, known for his sensuality, and his songs are mostly melodic and unique in the hiphop world.
After looping the single a few times, Li Zhixian clicked on the favorite, which was very much in line with his preferences.
I was about to continue listening to other songs, when suddenly the phone rang, it was Yu Zhihao's call.
"Zhihao, what are you doing?"
"What's wrong with the studio in Mapo with my seniors? Are you done with the interview? β
"Well, it's over. If nothing else, I may be working at MBC in the future. β
"Congratulations! Something to do in the afternoon? Would you like to come to the studio together? Introduce your seniors to you. β
"Good! What about lunch? Do you want to eat together? β
"I have to be with my seniors, or you can come along!"
"Wouldn't it be nice to meet your seniors at a dinner table like this for the first time?"
"It's okay, the seniors are very kind, so be it, you can just go to the studio and find me."
"Well, Alaso."
Hanging up the phone, Li Zhixian took out his notebook from his bag and sorted out his recent busy works, and he planned to work with Woo Jihao in the studio in the afternoon to pass the time.
Then, I was afraid that I would be distracted and unable to concentrate, so I took off my headphones and concentrated on the notes in front of me.
Half an hour later, Li Zhixian walked out of the subway station and walked all the way to the studio that Yu Zhihao said, and skillfully entered the access control code, because he often worked with Yu Zhihao before, and the two made a lot of songs here, and Yu Zhihao told him the password for convenience.
The studio is not big, it is a residential renovation, except for the addition of soundproof panels around the room, the study room is converted into a recording room, and the rest of the place is no different from the home room.
After inspecting the living room and finding no one, Li Zhixian pushed open the door of the recording studio, and happened to see Yu Zhihao recording, and after finding Li Zhixian, Yu Zhihao waved his hand and greeted him while signaling him to wait for a while.
Li Zhixian also waved his hand and nodded, and then habitually turned around and sat on the sofa, but the corner of his eye suddenly skimmed to the sofa and there was still a person sitting on it, and he almost sat on it without paying attention!
hurriedly stopped his movements, turned around and saw a bald-looking man staring at him intently, and then the other party took the initiative to say hello, and his voice was very low: "An Ning Hasai!" β
This greeting frightened Li Zhixian, firstly, he didn't expect that there were other people in the studio, and secondly, he was surprised by the identity of this person.
Because Lee Ji-hyun was shocked to find out that the man who took the initiative to greet him was Gaeko!
Gaeko is one of the members of DynamicDuo, one of the top hiphop groups in South Korea, and many of the lyrics and composers of DynamicDuo albums are his main creators.
Li Zhixian is not unfamiliar with Zhihao's hiphop friends in the studio, but most of them are Zhihao's colleagues in Buckwilds, and most of them are rappers in the underground world, and their popularity is very limited.
I didn't expect Zhihao to have this kind of connection in the entertainment industry, and he didn't forget to bow and salute while being surprised: "Hello Gaeko senior!" I'm Zhihao's friend Li Zhixian, and I've always been a fan of Dyduo, and it's an honor to meet you today! β
Different from his appearance, Gaeko is an extremely friendly senior, and smiled kindly at Li Zhixian: "Don't be so polite. I've heard Zico talk about you a lot, and he's been admiring you for a long time! I heard him say that many of the works were done by you together? β
It turned out that Zhihao often promoted Li Zhixian when he was active under the stage name of Zico, and even did not forget to mention his name in interviews.
Silently remembering the care of his friends, the relationship between the two no longer needs to be deliberately thanked, and replied without hesitation: "Inside, we have known each other since childhood, and we have been making music together since we were teenagers, helping each other a lot, and many works are made by the efforts of the two of us." β
Gaeko sighed: "It's really rare to have a relationship like yours in the hiphop world, I feel like you are very similar to our Dyduo!" β
Li Zhixian hurriedly waved his hand and denied: "The two of us can't compare to the seniors of Dyduo!" Dyduo's predecessors have known each other since childhood, and they have been in the music industry for nearly ten years since their debut, how can we compare. β
I don't know how much the relationship between Gaeko and Zhihao is, Li Zhixian speaks very carefully.
Being straight doesn't mean stupid, and not being afraid to talk nonsense in the interview room is because no matter what the final result is, it doesn't hurt, and even if you fail the interview, you can't work at MBC.
But if you say the wrong thing in front of your predecessors in the music industry, not only yourself, but even Zico will be implicated.
Gaeko explained a little awkwardly: "Ah, it's not about the level of music, I mean that your experience is very similar to ours, you have known each other since childhood and made music together, the difference is that you have developed separately, unlike Dyduo who formed a group." β
Li Zhixian shook his head and said: "At that time, the development of domestic hiphop music was very bad, and Zhihao wanted to study abroad, so he didn't have the opportunity to develop together. β
"Yes, a few years ago, Korean hiphop music was completely unpopular, and after Seo Tae-zhi and Deux retired, the Korean hiphop industry collapsed, and we Dyduo couldn't even release records at that time. The environment is much better now. Gaeko sighed when he recalled the difficulties he had when he first debuted.
"Zhihao and I entered the industry relatively late, and we don't know the hip-hop music environment before that. However, the influence of DynamicDuo's predecessor's album at the time was extraordinary for both of us. The innovative hiphop genre is eye-catching and opens up a new way of understanding hiphop music. At that time, if ...... Ah, Yu Zhihao! This paragraph is not to say that it is good to follow the five-byte beat I said, the flow is clearer and lower, why do you secretly change the beat! β
Although chatting with his seniors, Li Zhixian still dedicated a small part of his attention to listening to Zico's recording, and seeing that he didn't sing in the set way, he couldn't help but press the guide button on the table and yelled at Zico in the recording studio.
