Chapter 255: The President Arrives
The beginning of "Uncommitted" is undoubtedly a success, and compared to Kim Sung-han, Kang Eun-chan's momentum now seems to be more vigorous, after all, Kang Eun-chan made a sensation in the United States in the first generation, and this effect is self-evident.
is completely different from JAJ's debut in the United States, among the members, Kang Eun-chan is an artist born and raised in South Korea, so it is natural to advocate for his achievements in the United States today. An eight-point score turned into a twelve-point score, an exaggeration that is not uncommon in South Korea.
In any case, although "uncommitted" is an English song, it has quickly become a very popular song in South Korea, no less than GD and Kim Sung-han.
In October, Kim Sung-han and Kang Eun-chan, who had suddenly exploded in results, both received invitations from Mnet TV, which were invitations to the MAMA Awards Ceremony, which had changed their faces after the 2008 mkmf award ceremony last year. All three of JAJ received invitations, and Kim Sung-han and Kang Eun-chan also received invitations to perform alone.
The conflict between Mnet and S.M TV has become more and more intense this year, not only the issue of giving one person on the singing stage, but also many conflicts of interest. TV stations have always been behemoths in the Korean entertainment industry, even if they are not the three major TV stations, Mnet is also a behemoth in TV stations with the CJ Group behind him.
No matter how powerful S.M is, it is just an entertainment company, how can Mnet compromise? Secondly, S.M is not good at stubble, and the two sides will naturally fight.
For Mnet's MAMA awards ceremony, S.M Entertainment publicly boycotted. and mobilized its singers to participate together and refused to appear in the MAMA awards ceremony. 100 dense and one sparse. Kim Jae-jung and the three were ready when they broke away from S.M. and decided to stand on the opposite side. This time, I received an invitation directly from Mnet. The trio will be on the podium as TVXQ members on the same day, and the trio's move is almost a slap in the face of S.M.
The middle of October has just passed, and the popularity of "Uncommitted" continues, and Kim Sung-han's solo album has also been showing a hot situation, and the four major title songs are taking turns to occupy one place on the major music source lists, and on the singing stage, they are also the first to win solo after their debut.
Kang Eun-chan began to appear on major TV stations, and was interviewed by both MTV and Billboard, performing live in national metropolises such as Washington, New York, and Los Angeles. In the half-hour charity performance that just ended in Times Square, New York. It attracted thousands of people to watch, including fans and fans from Asia and the United States who like Kang Eun-chan!
The video of the live performance of "Uncommitted" was immediately uploaded to YouTube, and later spread on major Korean websites. It surpassed one million hits on YouTube in less than half an hour, and reached eight million hits in less than a day.
The popularity of the single "Uncommitted" has not yet dropped, and the US branch of HOOK came forward to announce the news that Kang Eun-chan will announce the release of his latest album on November 1, and this press conference revealed that the name of Kang Eun-chan's latest album has been set as "Believe", and Kang Eun-chan thanked his deceased, brother, and teammate Kim Sung-han for presenting him with a very nice English song in front of reporters from all sides!
The news at the press conference quickly spread to South Korea, and all media outlets were quick to report on Kang's efforts to open up the U.S. market. and expressed his expectations for the release of a new album on November 1, and wished him well.
In addition, Kang Eun-chan's gratitude to Kim Sung-han across the ocean quickly aroused a response from the group of JAJ fan elves. JAJfancafe of the day rioted resolutely.
"The relationship between the oppas is really good!"
"I'm really looking forward to the songs that Sunghan OPPA wrote for Eunchan OPPA."
"I wish OPPA's new album a great hit, and the song "Uncommitted" is superb!"
……
The noisy JAJ fan base has become the most active fan group in South Korea overnight. After the TVXQ affair broke out. The loss of fans is inevitable, and the number of JAJ's fans is still slowly growing, especially Kim Sung-han's solo and Kang Eun-chan's American event. Recently, I have added a lot of new fans to JAJ.
In 2008, the number of elves was fixed at 750,000, and it took more than a year to do so. Finally, at this time, it slowly approached the number of 800,000. If it succeeds, JAJ will regain its former glory. Become a well-deserved No. 1 group, the supreme combination!
The glory of the individual drives the group, and that's obviously a very good thing. At least Jeon Jin-young would be happy to see that sort of thing. And fans and the media are curious, Kim Sung-han and Kang Eun-chan have released films successively, so what about Ahn Sung-min, the third member of JAJ?
After Ahn Sung-min announced the suspension of group activities and solo activities in JAJ, in September, except for a few variety shows that he could appear, there was no other news; In October, after Kim Sung-han's solo activities were launched, he only participated in the stage of "Lovesickness" four times as FEAT!
Now that Jiang Encan has also begun to float fragrant, Ahn Sungmin's fans already have grievances, questions, and the delivery of fan letters have appeared within the hook company, and some fans have even published them in the newspaper, thinking that the hook company favors one over the other and snubs Ahn Sungmin.
Jeon Jin-young also has a terrible headache about this matter, Ahn Sung-min naturally has something to do recently, and is actively preparing to become an actor, Ahn Sung-min, who recently received an invitation, has just auditioned for the role of "God of Learning", and the news of whether he can appear has not yet come out, and now there is such a thing.
Although Ahn Sung-min has clarified on his SNS and CY nest, and also revealed that he is currently auditioning for a TV series, the news has not dissipated, and in the spread of well-intentioned people, Ahn Sungmin's clarification was characterized as a "lie"! This is also where An Shengmin is puzzled, telling the truth is regarded as a "lie"!
The angry Ahn Sung-min quickly replied to the person who had a heart:
"To be honest, being characterized as a lie, I really don't know what to think! If you say that you are in love, will you laugh it off and then characterize it as a lie? It's funny, isn't it fun to stir up a relationship between an artist and a company? ”
A paragraph, with some unique expressions, now chatting like to add messy expressions to express their feelings, and even afraid that others will come to another false rumor, An Shengmin added his own photo next to the text, a pouting expression with an aggrieved expression.
In today's society so well-informed, Ahn Sungmin's news attracted attention as soon as it was released. Ahn Sung-min's words and photos were published, commented, and even included the words of Chun Jin-young, the president of the hook who quickly responded to Ahn Sungmin's news that night.
The rumors are finally starting to weaken a lot.
On October 21, Ahn Sung-min confirmed to participate in "The God of Learning", the news was sent from KBS TV, hook company announced it as soon as he got the news, and Ahn Sung-min also expressed his thoughts and testimonials on his website.
Since then, the media have discovered that the three members of JAJ carry out solo activities, Kim Sung-han and Kang Eun-chan are engaged in singing activities at home and abroad, and Ahn Sung-min is engaged in actor activities, which is also a good idea. After all, with Kara, Lee Seung Gi and Davichi, the hook company can save a lot of resources by doing so.
The resources of Hook's Korea headquarters and U.S. branch are separated, and Kang's activities in the U.S. do not require Hook's local resources to be supplied. The Korean hook company only has a connection with the branch in Japan, which is also due to JAJ and Kara, which will enter Japan in the future.
On October 22, in the Incheon International Airport in Seoul, South Korea, three figures slowly walked out of the densely populated airport, and the person who appeared in front of them was Jeon Jin-young, the president of the hook company.
Jeon Jin-young smiled and looked at the man who was the leader of the three in front of him, and said with a smile: "It's been a long time, President!" ”
The middle-aged man who took the lead pursed his lips and smiled, and the two women beside him also showed bright smiles. I only heard the middle-aged man who took the lead and said slowly: "Zhenying, I haven't seen you for a long time, this time I came over, the stinky boy shouldn't know!" ”
Jeon Jinying nodded: "Hmm! Shenghan is still on TV! I didn't tell Shenghan about the news that you, the president's wife, and Miss Ruoyan were coming to Seoul, and when the time came, the president would have to help me, and Shenghan would definitely blame me. ”
Looking at the man in front of her, Jeon Zhenying was in awe, the person who can make the hook exude a lot of luster is the person in front of him, giving a lot of financial support and giving a lot of resources, all thanks to the person in front of him!
Whether it is the confrontation with S.M Company and the Korean Performing Artists Association in 2006, or the cooperation with CJ Group after 2007, it is impossible to do without this character, the chairman of hook company and Kim Sung-han's father - Kim Hak-bin! (To be continued......)
