Chapter Forty-Three: Old Friends and New People

Although NRG has not been developing smoothly in the music industry for more than a year, after all, it is a senior who has debuted for seven years, and the last two songs have become popular, which quickly gathered extremely high popularity, and the treatment enjoyed is naturally the standard for first-line artists.

The separate standby room is very spacious, at least when Lee Jun-hee was active as an NRG before, he didn't enjoy such treatment, and I still remember when they debuted on the stage, they could only rest in the corridor, change clothes, and keep saying hello to the senior singers who came to them, and those who were kind could respond to them, and those with a big temper would choose to ignore them directly.

Later, even if he had some fame, he could only share the lounge with other singers, and it was Gao Yaotai who often got together at that time.

Sincere! Sincere! Sincere!

Qian Myung-hoon went to open the door, and it was the old acquaintance Gao Yaotai who walked in, the captain Kim Jong-min, the lead singer Shin Ji, and the new rapper Bai Jia who had never met, Ko Yaotai is recognized as the "disco king" by the Korean people and the music industry, known as the Korean dance music supreme, their albums are always based on dance music style, plus fiery dance and cool rap, as well as Shin Ji's unique high-pitched voice, creating a unique Korean No. 1 mixed voice group, The refreshing style of electronic dance music makes its compositions resound in every Korean discotheque.

Gao Yaotai debuted a year later than NRG, and in that era when hiphop groups were popular, Gao Yaotai, who debuted with a strong electronic dance music style, instantly brought a refreshing feeling to people, especially the bright and high-pitched voice of the female lead singer Shin Ji, with a fresh and cheerful dance music, which made many people unforgettable.

The title song of the first album topped the K-pop charts for three consecutive weeks on the charts of major TV stations, and sold 30,000 copies in 10 days, laying a good foundation for subsequent development, and the song is still a classic among Korean commercial dance music classics even after 6 years.

At the end of 1999, Ko Yaotai also achieved good results in the two albums released while the iron was hot, and the two albums were successful one after another, which not only established Ko Yaotai's position as a unique leader in the Korean mixed voice group industry, but also opened the prelude to Ko Yaotai's dance music in charge of club music.

After the 2nd episode, the male lead singer Cha Shengmin gave up his career as a singer due to personal academic problems, and after recording for the 3rd episode, he returned to the United States, in order to continue to maintain the group's survival, Gao Yaotai's economic company began to look for a member to replace Cha Shengmin, so as to find Kim Jongmin, who was born as a dancer for female singers Lee Jung-hyun and Yan Zhenghua, although Kim Jong-min was not a singer, but he was very popular, before the release of the 3-episode, the company tried its best to make Kim Jong-min a member of the Gao Yaotai group, because fans could not accept the group's change, In addition, unlike Cha Sungmin's voice and singing style included in the original album, Kim Jong-min was once excluded and his development was not smooth, but later after hard work, his own affinity and Shin Chi, and Jin Qiu's strong help. It was quickly recognized by everyone, and in 2001, Gao Yaotai won the award of the KBS and SBS Song Contest, and since then, he has become a frequent guest at major award ceremonies.

In 2002, Gao Yaotai was smooth sailing, and the 4th volume was about to be released, the member Jin Qiu was forced to leave the team due to suspected drug incidents, and suspected Kim Jong-min, Shin Zhi and the two were involved for a time, and it was later confirmed that the two were not involved, Gao Yaotai entered the most difficult period, and the group was once facing disbandment, so there was Gao Yaotai's "10,000-person convocation", and finally succeeded in convening more than 6,000 people, more than 1,000 people than the mandate, and the success of the convening was Shen Zhi, and Kim Jong-min established the confidence to continue walking, It also further sublimated the friendship between the two, at this time, Gao Yaotai only left Shin Zhi and Zhong Min, and did not join the member Kim Young-wan until the release of the 4th episode, and later left, in 2003, when the 5th episode was added, Jung Myung-hoon joined, although the album was very successful and won many awards, but soon Jung Myung-hoon also left, and it was not until the release of the 6th episode this year that the addition of the new rapper Bai Jia made the group stable.

Today, Gao Yaotai came to participate, and it was their title song of 6 episodes that he wanted to perform.

As soon as they entered the door, the three members of Gao Yaotai first greeted them respectfully under the leadership of the captain Kim Jong-min, and sent their 6th episode, no matter how good the personal relationship is, it is also a private matter, and the etiquette should be emphasized, but it cannot be ambiguous at all.

In the Korean entertainment industry, especially in the music industry, if you want to survive forever, etiquette issues must not be sloppy, otherwise a label that does not understand politeness is enough to make a popular idol fall into the dust in an instant.

Because none of the two singles of the NRG have released physical albums, Lee Sung-jin can only say sorry.

At the end of the fixed greeting program, they were all friends who had known each other for a long time, and everyone immediately relaxed, and even went directly to the sofa with a big grin, and couldn't help complaining: "It's really the same life!" Jun-hee oppa! Why can you enjoy such a luxurious standby room, but we can only squeeze together with others! ”

It's said to be luxurious, but it's just a little bigger.

"If you like it, come here! There were only five of us anyway! ”

NRG doesn't even have a brokerage company now, and the new company is still in preparation, like the staff that ordinary artists will be equipped with, they don't have any of them, they just came to participate in the show today, and they all drove Li Chengzhen's private car.

The costumes are also prepared by yourself, and as for makeup and hair, they are all done with the help of Cui Zhen's image design assistant.

When Shen Zhi heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Really? ”

But it immediately dimmed: "Forget it! ”

Although Shen Zhi has a big personality, he is not ignorant, if he changes the standby room without authorization, it will attract the dissatisfaction of the program team, this kind of thing can't be done.

At this time, Kim Jong-min was also introducing Baek Jia to Lee Jun-hee, and he was already familiar with the other members of the NRG, but it was the first time he met Lee Jun-hee.

Because of the relationship between Kim Jong-min and Shin Ji, Lee Jun-hee and Baek Jia quickly became acquainted, this rib man who looks like an artist has a very introverted personality, and it is hard to imagine that a person with such a personality will play such a role as a rapper in Ko Yo-tae.

The people who came to participate in the performance today are all NRG juniors, so they don't have to visit anyone, they can just go out during the rehearsal.

Gao Yaotai is not in a hurry to go back, the title song of their new album has been promoted, and they are here today to do "goodbyeshow", and they don't need to make too much preparation.

NRG and Gao Yaotai chatted, during which many people came to visit, some were known by Li Junxi, and some were newcomers who had just debuted for a short time.

The team of newcomers who impressed Lee Junxi the most was the super newcomer TVXQ, which was launched by S.M, the overlord of the Korean music industry, in February this year.

When he was still in the barracks, Li Junxi paid attention to this five-member boy group, and after returning from the army, he also looked up some information about TVXQ on the Internet, and from the debut, operation, and follow-up publicity of this group, it is not difficult to see that this TVXQ is definitely the ambition of S.M president Li Xiuman.

Unlike the hastily debuted hot, and the myth of the real Yàn combination, S.M launched TVXQ, but it has been in preparation for many years, from the members to the project, all of which reveal Lee so-man's ambition.

On December 26, 2003, Kim Jae-jung, Jung Yoon-ho, Park You-cheon, Kim Jun-so, and Shim Chang-min, five boys between the ages of 16 and 18, took the stage names Hero Jae-joong, Yoo Yoon-ho, Miki Yoon-ho, Myki Youtian, Hoa Jun-so, and the strongest Chang-min formed a five-person vocal dance group TVXQ, officially formed an army, and made their debut on SBS TV BOA and Britney's New Year's "Specialshow", performed on the same stage with BOA, and sang.

On February 6, 2004, TVXQ officially debuted on MBC-TV, a popular song recording program for GuòSBS, and then became an instant hit, with its first album selling second in South Korea, second only to the national group God.

is not only outstanding in terms of musical works, but also in some details, people can't find any faults, that is, when they salute the NRG, they are all clear-eyed.

It's just that it's really unlikeable, if a person is too polite, not only will it not make people feel close, but it will give people a sense of alienation.

In this regard, Lee Jun-hee is not curious, the relationship between the MF and S.M of the agency where NRG worked before is very close, and the previous six albums of NRG were all with the help of S.M's distribution channels, and now that NRG has left MF, TVXQ, as an S.M artist, naturally can't get too close to NRG.

After TVXQ left, Shen Zhi couldn't help but sigh: "The current newcomer is really amazing!" Not only is he handsome, but his strength is first-class! ”

Shen Zhi is not wrong, TVXQ is very good just to give people a very good eye, this is also the consistent way when S.M launches newcomers, not to mention anything else, the appearance must definitely be 100%, look at the artists launched by S.M before, either handsome guys or beauties.

However, TVXQ is not just good looking, as Li Xiuman's ambitious work, his strength is also the top among his peers.

ps: The first update of the new year, Xiaomei is here to give you New Year's greetings, I wish you all good health in the new year, all the best, all your wishes come true, and work smoothly, in addition, I want to continue to support Xiaomei! (*^__^*) hee-hee-hee......!
