Chapter 84 Rules
Cho Won-hee's debut was scheduled at KBS Music Bank, and the premiere of the mini-album's title track "TroubleMaker" was scheduled for SBS's popular songs, which are close to S.M.
There are many beauty institutions in Apgujeong-ro, and almost 90% of the beauty institutions in Korea are concentrated here. Zhao Yuanxi's makeup is done in a professional beauty institution that cooperates with S.M Company, and usually large entertainment companies have fixed partners, not only makeup, costumes, but also backup dancers. Zhao Yuanxi's backup dance this time is a stage performance provided by a professional dance company.
As a pillar industry in South Korea, the entertainment industry involves all aspects of society, and almost one in five people is engaged in entertainment-related industries.
In order to adapt to the style of Zhao Yuanxi's stage performance, the stylist designed a special hairstyle for him, with neat short hair standing up at the roots, quite a bit of angry hair. Kwon Yoo-ri and Lim Yoon-a's originally long black hair was dyed light brown, slightly lighter than the dark coffee color, and slightly darker than the blonde color. Kwon Yoo-ri is a small wave that rolls, while Lim Yoon-a is a big wave.
Zhao Yuanxi took care of it properly, Quan Yuli and Lin Yun'er were still sitting quietly and reading fashion magazines, women were naturally much slower than men in getting their hair, and Zhao Yuanxi simply closed his eyes and rested.
It took an hour and a half for the two facades of Girls' Generation to be finished, and when Song Jifan woke him up, Zhao Yuanxi rubbed his face and followed the two facades into the nanny car.
"I'm waiting to fall asleep." Zhao Yuanxi sat opposite the two of them, covered his mouth and said, he was really asleep, and there was still a trace of sleepiness after being woken up.
Lin Yun'er wrapped her fingers around her long hair and chuckled: "Oppa, we have made a great sacrifice for your cooperation stage, you see that my hair is dry and split in order to do my hair." How can you thank us? ”
"Really?"
"Of course it's true. You see. As he spoke, he wrapped his fingers around his hair and pointed it to Zhao Yuanxi to prove that he was not lying.
Zhao Yuanxi glanced at him casually, he naturally couldn't be serious with Lin Yun'er, she said yes, and said with a smile: "Brother invited you to dinner as a thank you." ”
Lin Yun'er smiled, "It's pretty much the same." ”
The corners of Kwon Yoo-ri's mouth lifted lightly, and she smiled lightly.
When the debut song "In My Singing" was played, Zhao Yuanxi only participated in two rehearsals, because he only needed to sit quietly in front of the piano and play, even the camera was fixed shooting, and there was no need for rehearsals. And this time "TroubleMaker" is a powerful electronic dance music style, singing and dancing, not only needs to dance with the two girls of Girls' Generation, but also needs to catch the camera at all times, and rehearsals are essential.
The nanny car was not parked in the infield parking lot of the TV station, but in the outfield parking lot, and walked into the TV station hall about 200 meters away, and a cordon was pulled on both sides of the 200-meter walkway. This is a conventional practice, just like the red carpet of a celebration, so that fans can have close contact with the artist, and it can be regarded as a gift to fans.
Zhao Yuanxi's mini album was directly washed as soon as it came out, dominating the top three of major music websites, and Zhao Yuanxi's fans learned that he participated in the popular song stage today, and arrived at the scene early to wait for him to support.
Zhao Yuanxi, as an Idol, is actually not a qualified and competent Idol, compared to other artists who are busy participating in various variety shows and frequently appearing in TV shows, or holding various signing meetings and meetings, Zhao Yuanxi is even more low-key than a filmmaker, every day is two o'clock and one line, except for limited advertising endorsements, basically stay in S.M company to engage in music creation and practice. This also made fans who were eager to get in close contact with Zhao Yuanxi look forward to it, and even resentful.
As soon as fans heard that Zhao Yuanxi participated in the stage performance of popular songs on the weekend, they couldn't help but be overjoyed, and finally they could finally meet their idols. Because it's the weekend, most of Zhao Yuanxi's fans are ten generations of women's meals, and the support is particularly powerful, at a glance, various banners and slogans are displayed in the crowd, and the shouts of "Yuanxi Oppa" are endless, just looking at the support scene, it seems that Zhao Yuanxi is more popular than TVXQ and SJ of the same company.
Zhao Yuanxi smiled, slowed down, waved hello to fans, and occasionally saw fans taking pictures would stop, Kwon Yoo-ri and Lin Yuna followed Zhao Yuanxi's footsteps, and cooperated with him to pose for fans to take pictures. A two-hundred-meter aisle, the three of them walked for nearly twenty minutes.
"Oppa's popularity is really not covered." Walking into the hall of the second hall of the popular ballad, Kwon Yoo-ri sighed.
He has always looked at such an ethereal thing as popularity, popularity is not equal to fame, and what Zhao Yuanxi cares about is fame, a reputation that will go down in history.
Zhao Yuanxi smiled slightly, and walked into his waiting room under the leadership of assistant Kim Zhengsheng.
A separate standby room, with a large white L-shaped sofa, is unusually spacious enough to fit two table tennis tables to play an international game.
As soon as Zhao Yuanxi and the three of them sat down, Song Jifan pushed the door in and said to Zhao Yuanxi: "The rehearsal time is forty-five minutes, and the order is after Sun Danfei." ”
Usually the rehearsal time is only about twenty minutes, and the popular ballad especially gives Zhao Yuanxi forty-five minutes of time, which shows that Zhao Yuanxi nodded and asked casually: "Is Sun Danfei also a solo singer?" ”
Song Jifan nodded and said: "Sun Danfei is a solo singer who debuted last year, and after her debut, she won the title of the female version of Rain with her excellent singing and dancing skills. ”
In the highly competitive Korean music industry, being able to debut as a solo singer in itself shows that he has good strength, Zhao Yuanxi knows that the solo singers of Lu Dao are in addition to the BOA and Zhang Liyin of the same company, and they are known as the invincible "national goblin" Lee Hyo-ri, all of whom are powerful singers with outstanding singing and dancing skills, and Sun Danfei can be called the female version of Rain, which shows that her strength is extraordinary.
Zhao Yuanxi was very interested, "Do you know the rehearsal time of Sun Danfei?" ”
"I'll ask."
S.M and SBS have a close relationship, and Song Ki-beom inquired about Sun Danfei's rehearsal time, and returned to the waiting room in a moment.
"After the rehearsal stage at F.T. Island is Son Dan-fi," Song Ki-beom glanced at his watch, "about four minutes later." ”
FTIsland is a 10-generation new idol band group composed of all post-90s generations, and it is a youth band created by F&Cmusic and MNET. and Lee Hyori belong to the same entertainment company, and the debut show is to star in MENT's new show "Heart Pounding Open Girlfriend" with Lee Hyori, the content of the show is to let the five people imagine their lives after having a girlfriend and show the image of a handsome man in a sitcom, after the show was broadcast, it was loved by countless female fans, and it has super popularity in South Korea.
Zhao Yuanxi said with a smile: "It seems that today's popular song stage is very lively." ”
"It's really lively, I've seen the schedule, SS501 will also participate in this singing stage, this is their return to the stage."
Cho Won-hee knows almost nothing about the Korean music scene, and Song Ki-beom continued, explaining, "SS501 is a first-line boy group owned by DSP Entertainment, which focused on developing in Japan last year, and in the first two months of this year, it developed in China, and held its first fan meeting and concert in China in February. ”
South Korea is a barren land crowded with as many as 100 entertainment companies, the main reason for the longevity of the Korean music industry is the fierce competition, the average number of idols in the music industry every day debuts, the fierce competition leads to extremely frequent updates and strong music vitality.
Limited by South Korea's narrow entertainment market, Idol, which has reached the top in South Korea, has to explore overseas markets. This is related to both the cultural export orientation of the South Korean government and the fact that the Korean market is too small.
This is true not only for SS501, but also for S.M, which went to explore the Japanese market in 2006 after TVXQ reached the top in South Korea, and SJ also formed a strong SJ-M to explore the Chinese market this year.
South Korea's limited market is like a small cake, the cake is too small and there are too many people waiting for the meal, and the idol who has reached the top must give up the local market in South Korea to open up overseas markets and grab a bigger cake, otherwise he will inevitably suffer from the jealousy and crusade of the entire entertainment industry.
This is the unspoken rule of the Korean entertainment industry.
Negative teaching materials that do not follow the unspoken rules are typical. Lee Hyori is one of them, after sweeping the Korean entertainment circle and being regarded as a "national goblin", the plagiarism incident broke out, causing Lee Hyori to be forced to interrupt his acting career and temporarily avoid the limelight; Kim Jong Kook is the second, in 2004 Kim Jong Kook has reached the peak, and in 2005, it was even more excessive, the triple crown swept the Korean music industry, and he even ate alone, not even a little soup left.
Therefore, Kim Jong Kook could only be enlisted, and it was an order directly issued by the Second Department of the Ministry of National Defense.
Success is also a triple crown, defeat is also a triple crown.
