Chapter 13: A Strong Return

On the Monday after the music bank put a comeback ad, the album of Prince officially began to enter pre-sales, and by Tuesday, in just one day, there were as many as 100,000 pre-orders, which is jaw-dropping.

The sales volume in five days has reached 300,000, which has already surpassed the record of 280,000 set by the debut single in a month and a half, and for newcomers, the prince group has been completely successful.

Friday's Music Bank is the comeback stage of the five members of the Prince group, as the hottest newcomer group in front of them, the music bank puts the return of the five members in the middle of the stage, on the one hand, to comply with their popularity, and on the other hand, to take care of the elderly.

The five princes arrived at the door of the music bank in a nanny car, which was already full of fans of the five. SM fans have always been jealous of other singers and companies, just because SM company's artists are too popular. Even those short-lived groups that were hidden and disbanded were not low in popularity when they debuted. At the door of the Music Bank, all you can see is the cheering cards of the elves.

The elves all shouted the names or stage names of the five members of the group. The number of fans who can enter the music bank is limited, so most of them are out to help.

After a brief greeting outside, the five entered the music bank under the cover of security guards, assistants and agents. The enthusiasm of the fans made them a little unbearable, unlike the fans who debuted on the stage before, and now they are completely excited about superstars. This is a bit of a fantasy for Prince, who is only now about to release the first series, and with the release of the first series, it will not only consolidate the fan base, but also allow the fan base to grow again.

"Hello seniors, we are a prince group, this is our new album, please enjoy."

The five of them constantly shuttled through the various standby rooms, and sometimes when they met seniors in the aisle, they would directly introduce themselves in the aisle. Some seniors didn't play before, so the five of them haven't met those seniors.

Some seniors will be good at not giving face, but some seniors will be polite. In short, the five of them have just made their debut, so the stage and the introduction of the seniors of the same company are more or less prepared, and they don't care at all.

"There are ...... idols who came today, as well as the prince group and ...... who will return today." The shouts that erupted from the fans when they heard MC talk about the Prince group shook the entire studio, and even the show PD was a sigh.

"Yikes! This prince combination is amazing in the future. ”

Not only is the PD shocked, but the artist idols watching in the backstage are not jealous and shocked. Those seniors who have been tepid for more than ten years are almost a little unbalanced in their hearts, but they can only find fault in private, and they can't do anything on the bright side. The bastard meal of the prince five knows how terrifying it is throughout the country, even if it is not an illegitimate meal, those ordinary fans who love prince are enough to tear them apart.

"Prince Combo Ready." The staff came to the standby room of the Prince group and reminded him.

"Yes." The five of them saluted and began to prepare.

Come to the back of the stage and wait properly. The return of the first series is very important, the first series is almost their weapon to impact the first-line group, and the purpose of SM is also this, it has a fan base of more than 200,000 just after its debut, which is enough for them to hit the goal of the first-line group. Once the Prince group succeeds, the loss of two or three years from the dissolution of the hot group can be overcompensated.

"Next up on stage is the return of Prince this week, so enjoy, music

start。 MC introduced it humorously, and when the audience heard the name Prince, they immediately let out a shout like a tidal wave.

The camera pans to the stage.

The five of them are facing the stage in white suits, and there are two songs they want to perform on the stage this time, the first one to perform is "You Are Like Me", this song written by Kim Sung-han made fans look forward to it, and those fans who bought the album really liked this song, although the song "Sorrysorry" is great, but it is difficult to polish the excellent quality of "You Are Like Me".

The lyrical music followed, and the fans shouted loudly, but there seemed to be a consensus that as soon as the lyrical song sounded, the audience was silent, quietly waiting to be enjoyed.

"I was immersed in the thought of you all day, and tears ran rampant in a string." Li Junhuan was the first to speak, his singing skills are very powerful, although the timbre is average, but the excellent singing skills make up for it somewhat.

"Your figure is getting closer and closer, and I am unconsciously distracted when I am immersed in work." Gu Xixuan's voice has a sense of vicissitudes, but as the lead dancer, his singing skills are the weakest of the five, although his singing skills are also very powerful, but compared with the other four, it is not enough.

“(woo

huhuhuhu) even if it's singing. "When Jiang Eun-chan sings, it is done by four other people to do the harmony, Kang Eun-chan is the most comprehensive one in the group, second only to Gu Hee-hyun in dance, and his singing skills are also very good, and he is also a lead singer, his timbre is very beautiful, and he is called the sound of nature by fans.

“(woo

huhuhuhu) even if you walk the streets. Ahn Sung-min also spoke, Ahn Sung-min's timbre is biased towards the European and American style, and there will be some hoarseness when singing, but it is very beautiful. The two sang three lines in harmony with the others.

"You're in as much pain as I am! You're crying like I did! You're living in memories all the time

Just like me. The chorus is perfectly interpreted by Kim Sung-han's delicate voice, Kim Sung-han's timbre is very attractive, gentle appearance, gentle surname and even the timbre is so gentle when singing love songs, but the chorus is sung in his timbre so explosive, as if he is really injured. It's exciting, almost tearful.

The five people will also pay attention to their expressions when singing, and every sentence needs to be emotionally brewed, and their eyes are empty or full of tenderness. This is the state of singing love songs.

The three-minute and forty-eight-second song finally ended, and when it ended, the audience erupted in applause, and the screams were smaller than the applause for the first time, and the song really touched the listeners and the audience.

"PD, the ratings have reached 10%."

"Oh, got it." PD replied very coldly.

Everyone wondered why PD would be so indifferent to the ratings that they usually care about most, but in fact, PD had already expected this rating, this song was really great, and PD itself was deeply immersed in it.

After the first stage, the five people stepped down and went to change into the costumes and hairstyles of the next stage.

In the middle, the five took the stage again.

The five were facing away from the audience, but the audience still let out the loudest shouts.

At this time, the music of "Sorrysorry" sounded.

The sound of "sizzling" music slowly began to sound.

"Lee Jun-hwan, Goo Hee-hyun, Kang Eun-chan, Kim Sung-han, Ahn Sung-min, our prince." Even if the slogan is shouted quickly, the prelude to the music is still happy. It can be seen that these fans have been contacted, and even the slogan has been changed.

“dance

dancedancedance, ohohohoh, sorrysorrysorrysorry, me, me, i'm first, obsessed with you, you, you, deep in it, baby" a turn, sitting in the classic dance movement of rubbing hands, the appearance of this action broke out again with a scream. The names of the five people came from the audience, and the enthusiastic dance music stirred up the atmosphere of the scene.

“shawty

shawtyshawtyshawty, eyes sparkling sparkle shining, breathing stagnant stagnation, I'm crazy crazy baby. When the chorus was repeated, the audience also sang skillfully. Even the accompanying music was sung.

"Sorrysorry" is a completely avant-garde dance music, and the electronic music in the middle is not only not offensive, but as if it were blended together. Kim Sung-han was greatly inspired by this dance music, and it is completely certain that the excellent arrangement and dance are enough to make this song popular, and the dance music style of this song is completely different from the previous style, and may even lead to a change in dance music. It's a good attempt, at least the reaction of the audience is already showing itself.

The dance of the five people is actually a bit monotonous, so there will be a lot of backing dancers in the chorus of the first section, and the action of rubbing hands together looks very imposing, and the effect is better and more impressive.

“dance

dancedancedance, ohohohohoh" is the last chorus sung by the five together.

"shawty~~" is the final ending by Kim Sung-han, and the sound is perfectly transposed.

As soon as the stage ended, it caused bursts of applause and screams, and the other artists were overshadowed at this time, a song "You Are Like Me" completely moved the audience, and a song "Sorrysorry" announced the strongest return.

That's right, it's a strong comeback, with a complete comeback, prince!

……

After the stage was over, all the idols were invited to the stage.

The final step is to announce the winner of one place, and in the past five days, Prince's "Sorrysorry" has quickly advanced into the major charts and music source lists like chicken blood. This time, a prince group is also a candidate, and the first time they played a song is a candidate, which is enough to see their current popularity.

"Who is this one? Please look at the big screen, combined with the music chart, audience favorability, the number of broadcasts and album sales, the final result is... Prince "Sorrysorry", congratulations prince, congratulations! The MC took the lead, and the crowd looked at the numbers on the screen. When the MC was announced, all the members of the PRINCE group and the idols on the scene were stunned, and the result was really surprising that there was one person who returned in the first week.

The five princes were also surprised, and then Li Junhuan, the captain, immediately stepped forward and took the microphone to say the acceptance speech, which was the same as the original acceptance speech, which was really nothing new.

Next is the encore stage, where everyone performs encore in the congratulations of other idols and MCs, bows to those seniors from time to time, and then simply dances and sings a short paragraph, basically spending the encore stage in laughter.

All in all, Prince's return is nothing short of perfect.
