Chapter 228: Farewell to the Stage
The outbreak of TVXQ made almost everyone in the music world feel a sense of surprise. It's just that the entertainment company Hook seems to be an exception, and on August 3, Kim Sung-han even discussed a lot of topics with Jeon Jin-young in his office.
"Fortunately, this outbreak has not had much impact on Kara's return, everything is in a normal state, and the sales of Kara's new album "revolution" have exceeded 40,000 copies yesterday." Jeon Jin-young grinned, already laughing badly.
Kara's regular second album sold 25,000 copies in four days, making it the second fastest girl group after Girls' Generation. On July 30, 5,000 copies of the limited edition of the second regular album were released at the same time, and they were also sold out on the same day.
Kara can be said to be a combination that has been hotly discussed recently. In July, they have not yet returned, but they still maintain a rapid growth in popularity. The announcement of "revolution" caused a heated discussion, and the trailers for the title songs "wanna" and "Mr" were released on the first anniversary of their debut after the reorganization, the fourth place in the first year of the group's debut, and Goo Hara won the "Best Korean Girl Group" by Yahoo, Japan's largest web portal.
On July 30th, Kara officially began her return through Mnet's Mcountdown, escorted by the three brothers of JAJ. Only this time, JAJ didn't get a place on the Mcountdown stage, and 2Ne1's hit song "Idon'tcare" won the first place, and Kim Sung-han also happily sang and danced a dance of "Idon'tcare" when he was a guest MC.
The response to Kara's return to the stage was overwhelming. The ass dance with a small waist and a crisp chest standing up seems to be very popular. The enthusiasm is no less than the shuttlecock dance of Girls' Generation and the arrogant dance of browneyedgirls. "Mr" is an unexpectedly popular song in recent times, alongside "Idon'tcare", "genie" and "Abracadabra".
Kim Sung-han also had to admit it. I was also frustrated when I watched the songs, and after the song "Mr" was staged on the comeback stage on Mcountdown and Music Bank, it completely surpassed "want na". The outbreak of "Mr" completely surprised Kim Sung-han, after all, "Mr" and "wanna" both belong to the title song, and as a result, the results of "Mr" left "wantna" far behind, which made Kim Sung-han a little depressed.
"Fortunately, I also made "Mr" the title song, otherwise I would have lost a lot of money." Thinking that he had set the title song of the album "Revolution" as two songs, Kim Sung-han felt that he was so smart if he had only set "wanna" as the title song in the first place. The consequence would be that Kara would only be able to perform on the stage of "Wanna" on the singing stage, while "MR" would only be able to perform on the comeback stage once. And "Mr" also lost the qualification to compete for one place.
"Haha! You've always been proud of being able to grasp people's preferences, the flow of kpop music, and this time you almost stumbled, almost causing losses to the company. Jeon Jin-young laughed and said that after seeing Kim Sung-han's astonishment at the results of "Mr", he didn't joke about it again.
Jin Shenghan faced words similar to ridicule from Jeon Jinying, but he had no choice but to pout. complained slightly: "Uncle has fallen into the pile of money, we JAJ have fought for so many interests for the company!" Uncle still cares about this? ”
Quan Zhenying raised her eyebrows: "Ah! Don't do anything with money, do nothing now without money! How can you push Kara and you JAJ without money! It costs a lot of money just to launch your and Eunchan's solo! ”
Jin Shenghan was speechless and wanted to say something to refute. only to find that he had nothing to say.
"By the way, you're going to have a farewell stage this week, are you ready for the special stage? Don't mess up when the time comes! Jeon Jinying took a sip of tea. Said slowly and leisurely.
Kim Sung-han raised his head, and the four singing stages that began on August 6. It will be JAJ's last promotional song, and JAJ's farewell show this year! For this. Mcountdown, Music Bank, Music Center, and popular songs have all prepared special stages for JAJ, and the songs "Stillalive", "Mylove", "Blue" and "Monster" are all skewered, and it is expected that there will be seven or eight minutes of time, which is nearly one-tenth of the time of the entire singing stage.
After the outbreak of TVXQ, the forces in the domestic music industry in South Korea are tantamount to a purge and a major reshuffle. In addition to TVXQ, the most popular is the group JAJ, which is composed of three members of the Prince group, so even with the TV station, the treatment of JAJ has been further improved again. Needless to say, on Mnet, it has always been very well cared for, and in the three major TV stations KBS, SBS and MBC, it was only quite good before, but after this time, it has really improved again.
Hook's relationship with Mnet is the best, followed by MBC and SBS, and the relationship with KBS TV is relatively light, not intimate, nor cold!
Fast forward to August 6th, and in a week's time, Kara's regular second album has sold 40,000 copies, which is second only to the best result set by the mini album "genie" of Girls' Generation, and broke through the second place in the ranking of "gee".
On the same day, Nicole, a member of Kara's group, became MBC's unexpected fortune fixer.
In the afternoon, waves of artists arrived at mnet TV and began to prepare for the Mcountdown singing stage that began in the afternoon. This day is also JAJ's farewell stage!
JAJ stopped in a large, independent standby room, which was slightly larger than the MC standby room. The three of them changed into stage costumes and actively completed the makeup work. Today's stage doesn't require the filming of other songs as it used to be. This time, the stages of the four songs are connected. Because it's a skewer stage.
In the waiting room, I waited for the rehearsal news and received a visit from the juniors. It seems to be the only thing to do. After completing the costume change and makeup, the Kara group quickly came to the waiting room of the three JAJs, and they also felt that they had nothing to do, so after visiting some seniors, they quickly came to JAJ's waiting room to play!
“omo! oppa, do you still wear eye makeup when you say goodbye to the stage this time? Kang Ji-young walked in and said with a smile. This time on the farewell stage, the three of JAJ all wore very bewitching makeup, and it is normal for Kang Ji-young to be surprised at first glance.
"Are the oppas all going pretty this time?" There are really no words to praise and describe the makeup of the three JAJs. Gu Hara uses the word "beautiful" without concealment!
"Yikes! What is called walking in beautiful style! Jin Shenghan and the three of them said in unison, the word beautiful has already said goodbye to them, they are not yet twenty years old, and they are not adults at that time, so it is rare to care about what fans say about their beauty. It's just that now, I have exercised a good physique, and I pay attention to my words and deeds on weekdays, but I am afraid that I will be said to be beautiful again.
Now the word beautiful man is enough to describe the feminine taste, and the appearance is like this. Born, given by parents, what can you make us do?
"The OPPA's figure is actually good, it's better to take the route of animal idols like 2pm!" Nicole Zheng smiled. Raised his hand to make a muscular appearance and said. Kara and the other girls still had a lot of people in the waiting room laughing.
"2pm! Super handsome! Anne, the costume designer, held her hands and looked like a nymphomaniac. Jin Shenghan is most speechless because there are many fans of other artists in his work team, especially many girls in his work team.
Like Anne loved 2pm. ASK HER HOW SHE THINKS JAJ? She said that she didn't like the taste of the little boy, but what made Jin Shenghan speechless. Anne's favourite is the Thai Prince Nichkhun at 2pm! Nana loves Bigbang, especially GD Kwon Ji Ryong, she has a photo with GD in her hand, or please Kim Sung-han, and two SHINEE sister fans!
The elbow turned out, this is the most speechless place for the three of Jin Shenghan.
"Is OPPA feeling impulsive to get married?" Han Shengyan asked unexpectedly after everyone was lively. Kim Sung-han was broadcast as the father of "hellobaby" for a day, and many people were amused when he showed off his car in the parking lot, but at that time, as a "father" to show off his achievements to his son - the car, it was completely normal behavior, and after the show was broadcast, there were so-called experts who said that it was a father's normal psychology to show their strengths and achievements to their sons.
In "Hellobaby", Kim Sung-han has many unexpected features, such as broken thoughts! Taking care of baby Jingshan alone, since the mothers left when they were girls, they began to have the skill of breaking thoughts, allowing fans to see a completely different image of Kim Shenghan. After the show was broadcast, Kim Sung-han laughed at himself on SNS, café and CY one after another, "This is what it feels like to be a father!" Occasional broken thoughts, will show off, it seems that being a father is also a good thing. ”
After the remarks were published, fans commented one after another, and unexpectedly, many fans "persuaded" Kim Shenghan not to get married in a hurry, and gave Jin Shenghan a lot of knowledge counseling on late marriage. The media also commented on these remarks, and the news of "Kim Sung-han's desire to be a father" spread overwhelmingly.
"Huh!" Except for Jin Shenghan, everyone present couldn't help laughing, and Jin Shenghan also had to explain a few words, but the effect was not great, and finally he simply deflated: "That's right, I had the urge to be a father at that time, in fact, it's good that the child's mother is a girl." ”
Jin Shenghan's ambitious remarks filled the scene with exclamations, and coincidentally, there was a crisp knock outside the door of the waiting room at this time, and then the door of the waiting room was gently pushed open. The faces of several girls were revealed one after another!
"Wow!" There was a ghost howl in the room, and Jin Shenghan was also stunned. How can it be so coincidental? Just talking about them, and now they're there?
“1、2、3。 Hello seniors, we are girls' generation! The girls lined up in a row, greeting very politely, and after raising their heads, they found that the atmosphere at the scene was very strange, and Jin Shenghan's face turned red, as if he was holding back a smile. The others couldn't help but laugh, and some of them burst out laughing in a moment.
What a strange sight, Girls' Generation is still in the promotional phase of "Genie". They have all changed into costumes neatly, revealing beautiful long legs, and there are a lot of men on the scene! But they were just smirking, and the noise in their ears suddenly became loud, and there was less admiration and exclamation that men used to see and now dressed.
"What's wrong?" The staff of JAJ were quite familiar, so after the greeting etiquette was over, the girls became curious, looked left and right, and then looked at each other. I really don't understand what the situation is. pulled Kara and the five people to ask, only to find that they were all laughing and almost cramping, so they just laughed dryly and waved their hands. Signaling that he couldn't speak.
"Yikes! What's so funny? Kim Sung-han blushed and became annoyed, and slapped Jiang Eun-chan and Ahn Sung-min beside him twice, these two guys laughed the most heartlessly. It's an exaggeration.
"Haha!" Jiang Euncan, who was almost out of breath from laughing, was beaten several times before he regained his breath and waved his hand. I didn't know what to say, but I just tried my best to hold back a smile. He Shengmin said to Jin Shenghan with an exhausted look: "Shenghan (brother), your ambition is really big!" ”
When the two of them were in Girls' Generation, the nine people were there.,Deliberately said this.,The more the others laughed, the more difficult it was to extricate themselves.,Laughing.、Squatting on the ground.,Everything you need.,Even the five people of Kara almost fell on the sofa.,I have to say,JAJ's standby is really not ordinarily big.,After the nine people of Girls' Generation stood in.,This standby room has a slightly crowded feeling.。
Being teased in front of Jessica and other girls, Kim Sung-han blushed and couldn't speak for a long time.
Jessica, Tiffany and others were sharp-eyed, and understood that the reason was on Jin Shenghan's body, what "really ambitious", after hearing it, Jessica leaned towards Jin Shenghan with Tiffany and Yuri with a cold face. The voice was cold: "What ambition is really big?" What did you just do? ”
Jin Shenghan scratched his head, a little ashamed, at this time, Kara and the others, who had recovered their strength, pulled Lin Yun'er, Sunny and the others to cover their mouths and whispered.
One by one, from Lim Yoon-a, Sunny and Taeyeon, the whole team suddenly knew about Jessica, Tiffany, and Yuri!
Jessica stared at Kim Sung-han, Tiffany blushed and pursed her mouth and chuckled, and Yuri, Lim Yoon-a and the others laughed like you hugged me and I hugged you.
"Ahem! Just kidding. Kim Sung-han could only say this weakly under the staring gaze cast by Jessica. Jessica stretched out a finger against Kim Sung-han's head and pressed it hard. Jin Shenghan couldn't make any resistance, and he looked like "I knew I was wrong".
The people on the scene were all until Jessica and Kim Sunghan were dating, otherwise Jessica would not have done such an act so openly. In normal times, these actions will be opposed by the united front of many people, and the signboard of "don't show affection in front of us" is useless. This time it was different, everyone just left laughter, hearty laughter, and after connecting the above things, it looks really funny now.
Kim Sung-han has said more than once in front of his friends how much Jessica likes himself and how much Jessica listens to herself, but that's just talking, and her friends just listen to it and don't believe it. In reality, such a scene seems to have never been seen uncommonly.
"You're really ambitious, say, and you still have a crush on that sister?" Jessica accused aggressively, but Kim Sung-han smiled and grinned and planned to mix up: "Where is it? Lady Jessica is the most beautiful, with the highest legs, beauty and body! ”
Jessica pursed the corners of her mouth, and Kim Sung-han actually pulled her sleeve, as if she was talking coquettishly. But it was appreciated by Jessica. It is also destined to be ostracized by others! Xiuying, Sunny and Lim Yoona were the first to cry out in dissatisfaction, beautiful legs, beauty and figure are the highest? Yikes! Complimenting this pair in front of us?
Jin Shenghan didn't plan to care about other people's feelings for a long time. Just coax Jessica.
After the incident was revealed, Kara was called out for a dress rehearsal by Mnet employees. Girls' Generation is also going out to prepare. Before leaving, Jessica twisted Kim Sung-han's waistline, because Tiffany seemed to stay and say something, and Jessica just knew what Tiffany was going to say, glared at Kim Sung-han, and watched the latter's begging expression reveal before leaving with her high heels in satisfaction.
Tiffany stayed and walked up to Kim Sung-han, squinting with a crescent-like smile. He whispered: "Thank you oppa for the birthday gift, I like it very much, but next time oppa doesn't have to send such an expensive one." ”
Tiffany's birthday on August 1st, Tiffany's name is the same as a famous brand, so for Tiffany's birthday gift, Kim Sung-han chose a Tiffany brand of sunglasses, which is a pink, Tiffany's favorite color. Although it is sunglasses, Tiffany is a world-famous brand after all. The price of a pair of sunglasses is not ordinarily high, so Tiffany said to Kim Sung-han that they don't need to be so expensive.
Jin Shenghan smiled, and the gift was still satisfied with the owner: "It's okay, it's just Tiffany's sunglasses." You're Tiffany, too, so I'll send you. But it's just sunglasses, and if it's any jewelry, there's really no way to do it. Sika will kill me. ”
"Hee-hee!" Tiffany laughed silly, but it was beautiful. Before leaving, he playfully waved his hand to Jin Shenghan, smiled and left with brisk steps.
It's just a pair of sunglasses that makes Jessica twist her own flesh so hard when she just left. If it's Tiffany's jewelry or something, it would be hellish if Jessica didn't serve it a few times with the heel of her heels.
After Tiffany and the others left, JAJ's waiting room fell into a quiet atmosphere again, a little boring, it was too lively just now, and now it was too deserted, it seemed that after Jessica and the others left, anne and Nana couldn't speak.
But fortunately, soon, JAJ's rehearsal stage also arrived, and the final farewell stage, so the special stage was also arranged on the last stage. Although this time it should be less than one person in the competition, Mnet still takes good care of JAJ and Kara of the hook company!
After a brief rehearsal, there were almost 500 JAJ fans gathered on the special stage, and they screamed and screamed. The first live performance of "mylove" felt quite unusual, and even the fans gave unusually enthusiastic support during the performance.
"Mylove", "Stillalive" and "Blue" all have only one stage, which adds up to almost the full time of a song, three or four minutes, and the last song "Monster" is a full performance of 3 minutes and 51 seconds.
JAJ had just finished rehearsals, and it was time for Mcountdown to officially start broadcasting. The stage is live, but in order to deal with some unexpected situations, the live PD will let the performance start some time earlier. At the beginning of the Mcountdown program, the live stage performance was actually over, almost five minutes, five minutes faster than the progress of the audience in front of the TV, and these five minutes or so were used to respond to the on-site emergencies.
I waited backstage for a long time, and watched a lot of stages in the waiting room, but the desertion in the waiting room ended until Kara's "Mr" and Girls' Generation's "genie", and the noise began to appear.
"Say what you want! Tell me about your little dream! Paint a picture of your ideal type! Then look at me., I'm your Genie, dream, Genie......" Jin Shenghan and the three of them were speechless, and several big men on the staff were singing "Genie" in the waiting room, and they were also dancing the shuttlecock dance together in the chorus.
"Yikes! That's my girlfriend! Why do you like it so much? Kim Sung-han was very speechless about Jessica, who was particularly fond of girls' generation. Strongly asked him to change the target, and the other party would rather die than give in. But Kim Sung-han later found out. Showing affection to Jessica in front of him is the best way to do it - the way to him off!
JAJ's agent, Jung Hyun-chul, is also a fan of Girls' Generation, an honest and authentic sone-Taeyeon fan. There is even a signed photo of Taeyeon and a photo with her!
The stage of Girls' Generation is relatively late, so as soon as the stage of "genie" ended, JAJ went to the special stage to start preparing for filming.
……
"Ahh oppa! ”
“JAJ!”
The screams buzzed in my ears, and the cheers began.
And at this time, the PD password in the headphones came, and the recording began, and the first stage song "Mylove" (Korean name: I learned it from you)!
Ahn Sung-min's fluent rap begins after a watery lyrical prelude: "For you, I am both a love and an occasional sore thorn!" An uneasy conviction and a sense of loneliness and loss. After all this, what came was life, and I quietly turned my back and swallowed my tears......"
In the chorus, Kang Eun-chan's voice full of pain resounded: "Even if it's late at night, you're still in my dreams or, breathing!" ”
Jin Shenghan: "Breathe alive~" - harmony!
"Even if life is profound, you will always be with me in my arms!"
"Always together~"
“Mylove! mylove! mylove! ”
The music stopped abruptly, and the stage dimmed for less than two seconds. I only heard the "bang" twice, and the fireworks next to the stage erupted, followed by a cheerful melody.
“I’mstillalive! I’mstillalive! I’mstillalive! ”
"Ahh Shriek!
"Although I seem to be at the end of my rope, I am willing to come to the end. Don't avoid the gaze of others. I will not hide! Jin Shenghan's voice sounded: "No matter when, even if you fall to the bottom of the world, I'malive!" I don't want to lose or lose anymore, and I leave the past behind Jumpout......"
"Jin Shenghan!"
Ahn Sungmin: "She doesn't look happy when she loves me, and she hides her traces, which makes the public extremely afraid. Many longings and cheers were uneasy. A night of anguish over death......"
"Ahn Sungmin!"
As soon as the melody of Stillalive fell, the stage was instantly infected with blue space. A soothing rhythm sounds.
"Are you and me, in different parts of the same sky, so dangerous? That's why I left you! It's a stranger to you. Even though I look cowardly, I still hide without a chance! A cruel parting is the end of love, and no words can comfort it. I'm afraid that the last episode of my life will also come to an end now! ”
The atmosphere was warm, and the cheering voice on the scene once overshadowed the singing on the stage noisily, which deserved to be a special stage, and even the fans' support was enough to be described as special.
After a blue song has passed, a piano sound sounds, and then there is Monster!
"ILoveyoubabyI'mnotamonster, don't you know what I used to look like? Although it has become a thing of the past with the passage of time, you know that I was baby back then! ”
"Doesn't IneedyoubabyI'mnotamonster understand me? Don't just leave like that, even you. I can't live I'mnotamonster! ”
“IthinkI’msick! IthinkI’msick! ”
"Ahh The music ends, and screams erupt. Jin Shenghan's eyes narrowed, the posture of the three of them stood still, and then the stage dimmed - the special stage ended in screams and fierce applause, and the farewell show was officially completed! (To be continued......)
