Chapter 438: Kim Jong Kook's comeback

Kim Sung-won's release of a new album caused a stir in the music industry.

is not only looking forward to the contest between Kim Sung-won and TVXQ, BIGBANG and many other popular singers, but more importantly, Kim Sung-won has been too weird in the past year: he was born out of thin air, and then he was out of control.

Not to mention the frequent release of the album, there are also two OSTs that can be called against the sky.

Starting from "PleasetellmeWhy", there is hardly a song that is not a classic, otherwise no matter how popular Kim Sung-won is, it will not be possible to reach the current results.

The strength itself and the quality of the song are the most fundamental things!

What's even more outrageous is that Jin Shengyuan's songs are all completed by himself, from lyrics and composition to recording, he has never pretended to others, which is one of the reasons why many fans of Weishenme flock to him.

It is always easier for people with strength to be recognized.

Kim Sung-won's style is the style we like! ――Many fans have formed the belief that it is like a store whose reputation has been accepted by the public, so there is no need to worry about not having customers.

"Letter to Fifteen-Year-Old You" has been widely known, and everyone knows how good this song is, but for the other song "Believe", which is said to be written for girlhood, there is no news yet, which makes many fans uncomfortable as if they are scratching their hearts with a hundred claws and itching.

Fortunately, on October 12th and 13th, Jin Shengyuan successively released the MVs of the two songs "Letter to Fifteen-Year-Old You" and "Believe".

The previous song is already familiar to almost all fans, but the version in the MV has given everyone a greater touch, and the slightly immature backing vocals of hundreds of senior high school students have given the song a soul and can be called the finishing touch.

In just one day after the release of the MV, the song "Letter to Fifteen-Year-Old You" has become the most popular song in many colleges and universities, not only loved by students, but also respected by teachers.

And the latter "believe". It also gives a feeling of eye-catching. This song is very bright in terms of rhythm and style, and the rap in the middle gives people a feeling of vitality in early spring. The same motivational songs.

In the MV, the footage of Taeyeon Nine practicing hard made many fans see their strength, and unconsciously eliminated a lot of bad feelings towards them.

Now. The name of Girls' Generation is almost always supported by Yoona and Taeyeon, but Yoona is a TV series filmed, and the overall significance of Girls' Generation is not too great, so Taeyeon, the little ghost captain, holds up the entire sky of Girls' Generation.

Jessica's fainting incident is not just a reflection of her own situation. The nine, without exception, were all working frantically. Occasionally, Taeyeon would take time to visit Kim Sung-won at night, but she didn't have the energy to tease Kim Sung-won, and sometimes she would fall asleep while talking to him in Kim Sung-won's arms.

Taeyeon's song "Can You Hear Me" was released in September. directly occupied one place in the OST department of music websites such as "melon" and "dosirak", and there is a tendency to continue the unnatural results of the song "If" in the first half of the year.

Taeyeon has never given up from beginning to end, and perhaps her persistence is not as great as the impact of one of Kim Sung-won's song MVs. But little by little, she is reversing people's perceptions of girlhood.

Taeyeon believes. Drop stone wears! As long as they do better, there will be more fans who like them. This mentality, after nine people with one heart, is infinitely amplified. is even paranoid about physical appearance, Jessica, Yori fitness. That's what comes out of this mind.

Even Jin Shengyuan couldn't stop them!

……

On the third day after the MV was announced, Kim Sung-won's album officially started pre-sale.

This is Kim Sung-won's first official album in 2008, which not only includes the two songs "Letter to Fifteen-Year-Old You" and "Believe", but also the previous songs such as "Pleasetellmewhy" and "Like a Shot" were also re-sung by Kim Sung-won and included in them, as well as several works by Kim Sung-won in his spare time. …,

In the past, he took the boutique route and released mini albums every time, but he was criticized by many people for "cheating money". Although it is known that these people are jealous of the sales of their albums, Chi Guoguo's "pink eye", but under their hype, it is inevitable that many fans will have the same idea, and there are too few songs included in one of his records. Therefore, Kim Sung-won will include nearly twelve songs in this album.

The reinterpretation of classic songs has been noticed with a lot of new flavors, which has made fans who originally liked these songs even more obsessed. And some new songs, although they can't be called classics, are not indiscriminate.

The pre-sales of this regular album are "not too high", only about 150,000 copies, which is tens of thousands less than the pre-sales of TVXQ's "Incantation".

But as many people know, Jin Shengyuan's album sales come from some "inexplicable" guys, so except for some crazy fans of TVXQ, no one ridicules Jin Shengyuan's album sales as compared to TVXQ, and everything will not be known until his album is officially released.

Almost at the same time as Kim Sung-won, Kim Jong Kook also announced his return.

While Kim Jong Kook is preparing to return, he also announced that he will become one of the regular hosts of SBS TV's weekend ace variety show "Family Birth".

This news has been publicized in the entertainment industry, and Kim Jong Kook, a lyrical singer and shy muscular man, is actually going to start hosting variety shows! Could it be that he is on par with Jin Shengyuan again?

Variety show hosting is not so easy to succeed. Indeed, many singers and actors have a second spring in variety shows, but more of them are silent in the unknown vast sea of people.

The entertainment industry is like this, the audience and the media will always notice only the successful, regardless of human feelings, just like nature's law of survival of the fittest, which is one of the laws of the entertainment industry.

Jin C, MC Meng, Yin Zhiyuan and Li Xiugen have achieved extraordinary results with "two days and one night". Especially Lee so-geun, after Kim Sung-won changed to the "captain" type of hosting style, there was less suppression and more guidance from Kim Sung-won, and he burst out with unimaginable energy, which has become the general trend of variety shows recently.

Although their success is inseparable from their own efforts, there are also many accidental factors. In the first half of the program of "Two Days and One Night", Yin Zhiyuan and Li Xiugen almost did not have a few shots, and they were like passers-by.

Later, Shen Zhi's sentence of "Chu Ding" made Jin Shengyuan have an idea, and formulated this image for Yin Zhiyuan that best suits his character. And Li Xiugen has also changed from a "national driver" to a "third-in-command".

In the early days of "Two Days and One Night", Lu Hongzhe and Ji Shanglie gave up the show for various reasons and became losers.

Therefore, the road of variety shows is not easy to take. For Kim Jong Kook's choice, many media are not optimistic.

Kim Jong Kook's more than two years of service is the process of the transformation of Korean variety shows from indoor to outdoor. Kim Jong Kook doesn't even have the opportunity to participate in this kind of program, not to mention his hosting experience, how can he succeed?

However, for Kim Jong Kook's decision, Kim Sung-won is very supportive. Because this is the path he showed Kim Jong Kook more than two years ago.

After thinking about it, Kim Jong Kook finally chose Yoo Jae-seok's "family birth". Previously, when Kim Jong Kook revealed that he wanted to make a comeback through a variety show, Kim Sung-won also told him that he could choose "two days and one night". There is no doubt that Jin Shengyuan, Jiang Hudong, and Liu Zaishi all have this power.

Although Kim Jong Kook Zuihou chose "family birth", Kim Sung-won didn't care, if you want to be a person's closest friend in the entertainment industry, the most important thing is not to interfere with the other party's choice, which can also be said to be "public and private". Even though Jiang Hudong has always complained that Kim Jong Kook chose Liu Jae-seok, he has not weakened his relationship with Kim Jong Kook in the slightest. …,

……

Before returning to the stage, Kim Sung-won asked Kim Jong-kook and Yoo Jae-seok to drink together.

It was the night of October 15th, and the location was a barbecue restaurant in Myeongdong, Seoul, and there were only three of them.

On a cool night, several people sat together, drinking sake (because Yoo Jae-seok and Kim Jong Kook didn't drink well, so they chose sake), eating oily but not greasy, burnt roasted pork belly, and listening to the sound of "zizi" in the baking dish, which was the most enjoyable.

It was nearly ten o'clock at eight o'clock, and Liu Zaishi rushed to the barbecue restaurant.

"I'm sorry, Shengyuan, Zhong Guo, I'm late." As soon as Liu Zaishi entered the private room, he went directly to Daoqian.

"It's okay, I know that you are a busy person in Brother Shi." Jin Shengyuan got up and said with a smile.

"Yikes! Are you kidding me? Yoo Jae-seok hung his coat aside, sat cross-legged beside Kim Jong-kook, and said to Kim Sung-won dissatisfied.

"Where? I'm just telling a fact, isn't it Brother Zhong Guo? Kim Sung-won said to Kim Jong Kook.

"It's better to be busy in Brother Shi, otherwise how can you carry me?" After more than two years, Kim Jong Kook's dry humor has not disappeared, and it has become more sophisticated, and his words have a realistic and non-utilitarian flavor.

"Yikes! You two ......" Liu Zaishi looked at the two of them speechlessly, and then said, "Isn't it okay for me to punish three glasses of wine?" He had already noticed that the table was full of sake, only fifteen degrees, and the cups were not very large.

The ingredients for the barbecue had already been prepared, just waiting for Liu Zaishi to come. As the youngest of the three, Kim Sung-won skillfully lit the fire, set up the baking tray, and prepared the barbecue.

"In Brother Shi, don't drink secretly!" Liu Zaishi had just punished himself with a glass when Kim Sung-won said to him, "What is the difference between sake and drinks to you?" ”

Yoo Jae-seok shook his head and poured a glass of sake for Kim Jong Kook and Kim Sung-won.

"Shengyuan has changed so much from two years ago!" Kim Jong Kook sighed. Jin Shengyuan in front of him, although he was also affectionate compared to before, he was much more casual and cheerful, and after serving for two years, it was difficult for him to adapt for a while, and he had a sense of trance.

"Don't surprise you, sometimes I have a hard time getting used to it." Liu Zaishi said, "Other people's personalities were stereotyped when they were young, but this kid has only begun to change in recent years!" Your support is my biggest motivation. )
