Chapter 20 Hot Sales

The SSW team, which previously defeated the NJS team 3-0 at the OGN Winter Tournament to win the championship title in one fell swoop, has also recently made new moves in the esports entertainment industry.

Although the IMP who became famous in the Winter Tournament in the SSW team was very abruptly overpowered by a Uzi who came out of nowhere in the later entertainment game, the world-class dominance he showed in the ADC position after winning the MVP in the previous three games still made him have a large number of fans among the national community, although his popularity is not as good as that of the e-sports beautiful boy who became famous in the summer tournament.

Therefore, the management of the SSW team decided to cooperate with JYP Entertainment to launch the first solo MAD of IMP after an internal meeting, and the BGM of this MAD was covered by the top lyricists in JYP, and the singing part was also sung by the 2PM group JYP, which created the K-pop beast trend and is now a first-line boy group in South Korea.

I thought that with the top popularity of the 2PM group and IMP among the young generation in South Korea, the MAD they launched this time would definitely sell well at the end of the year and win the championship throne, but as the release date of the passerby e-sports player named Lee Sang-hyuk, whom they had not paid attention to before, was approaching, until the two BGMs of MAD were auditioned online in advance, and the song "Wintergames" at 2PM When they were directly steadied by Lee Sang-hyuk's own lyrics and singing "Unravel", which they had never paid much attention to, the talents of SSW and JYP realized that the release of MAD was not as optimistic as they had thought.

Seeing this situation, many media in the Korean entertainment industry have also added fuel and vinegar to various channels, and have a clear eye to break the news that IMP and SMILE also chose to release a new MAD at the end of the year to fight in the ring. Seeing this, JYP and SSW, who originally planned to postpone the release date of IMP's MAD, also had to set the date for the release on the same day as Lee Sang-hyuk's MAD on Christmas Eve, after all, this is the case in the entertainment industry, and once the gesture of concession is made in terms of public opinion, it often means that you will continue to retreat in many other aspects in the following time.

Many media in the entertainment industry are even happier when they see this, various reports and exclusive disclosures emerge in an endless stream, under their somewhat exaggerated rendering, many fans of both sides are already impatiently looking forward to the release of this big battle, after all, it is also a great sense of accomplishment for fans to see their idols win with their own support and efforts.

Finally, on December 24th, Christmas Eve, Christmas Eve, is long overdue under the expectation of many people, South Korea attaches great importance to the Christmas festival, on this day many people will give each other Christmas gifts, school holidays, and various shops on the street will also engage in some preferential activities to attract more young couples on the street on those two days.

In the past two days, under the strong propaganda offensive of S.M, the major audio-visual stores in major cities such as Seoul, Busan, and Gwangju in South Korea are also full of Lee Sang-hyuk's various MAD propaganda posters, most of the photos on these posters are mainly cold colors, and the black and white filling is the background, and the biggest highlight of all posters is that no matter how cold and gloomy the background rendering is, the corners of Lee Sang-hyuk's mouth on the poster have a trace of a smile that seems a little inconsistent at first glance, but if you look carefully, many people will find that this smile is like the sun at noon in winter, which will make people feel a little warm from the bottom of their hearts.

On Christmas Eve, S.M also quickly released it through its own sales network in major Korean video stores and some genuine online sales websites, and in just half a day, Lee Sang-hyuk's MAD album also jumped to the first place in various online and offline album sales data charts as soon as it was released.

Although IMP's MAD album has also sold well among the artists who released albums at the same time, and the ranking is already relatively high, compared to Lee Sang-hyuk's MAD, which has caused a storm in the Korean music industry and jumped to the first place on the album sales chart once it was released, there is no comparison at all.

In the expectation of many media, the big battle of chasing me did not happen, but was staged in such a scene, which disappointed many media fans and put their enthusiasm on the most popular Lee Sang-hyuk's MAD album at the moment.

The media that needs topicality to win the attention of the people naturally exaggerated and reported on the popularity of Lee Sang-hyuk's MAD album, and after Lee Sang-hyuk's fans won, they put their enthusiasm into the purchase of the album, and many fans in major shopping malls bought several copies at one time for their own collection or as gifts

On Christmas Eve, two young men and women sat opposite each other in a café next to a large supermarket in central Gwangju.

The boy has a slightly long broken hair, a black warm down jacket, and when he looks down at the straw, he looks out of the transparent glass wall next to him from time to time, and when someone passes by outside, he will immediately pull up the collar next to his neck to block half of his face, which looks a little strange.

The girl looked very cute with long shawl hair, a ruffled shirt lined under her tweed jacket, and an animal-striped scarf around her neck, and at the moment she was holding the hot drink on the table in front of her with both hands, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

These two are Lee Sang-hyuk and Jung so-kyung, who have just confirmed their relationship, and are trying to date for the first time

"Ahem, Xiujing." Lee Sang-hyuk looked at Zheng Xiujing, who bowed his head and was silent, and he tried to find a topic and said, "It's so lively outside today." ”

"It's Christmas Eve." Jung so-kyung looked up at Lee Sang-hyuk, who was talking a little strangely.

"I'm sorry, I don't have much experience, I'm a little nervous on the first date." Lee Sang-hyuk obviously realized that his ability to find topics was relatively poor, and after taking a sip of his drink, he scratched his head with a smile and said, "Please take care of that." ”

"Poof." Seeing Lee Sang-hyuk's appearance, Zheng Xiujing subconsciously laughed, and after laughing, she immediately remembered something, and looked at Lee Sang-hyuk with a girl's unique playful tone and said, "Yes, I heard that you still have a green plum"

"No, no, it's really the first time." Lee Sang-hyuk said with embarrassment, at this moment, he naturally can't say that he is actually from a parallel world.

"Alright, I trust you." Zheng Xiujing, who knew what happened between the two of them, obviously had no intention of dwelling on this aspect, she changed the topic with a smile, "Sanghyuk, you are a star now." ”

"Huh? I guess so. Lee Sang-hyuk looked out the window and said.

"I envy you so much, when can I be like my sisters." Zheng Xiujing held up her ruddy side face with one hand and said with a somewhat yearning expression.

"Well, you want to be an artist so much?" Lee Sang-hyuk saw Zheng Xiujing with a yearning face, and couldn't help but ask with a smile.

"Of course." Zheng Xiujing glanced at Lee Sang-hyuk, and then said, "That was my dream when I was a child, when I was a child, I watched those beautiful sisters on TV, and I thought that I must be like them when I grow up in the future." ”

"Well, our little crystal will definitely be better than them in the future." Looking at the cute appearance of Zheng Xiujing, who had a sideways face and shook his head to tell himself about his childhood dreams, Lee Sang-hyuk couldn't help but reach out and gently scrape Zheng Xiujing's nose and said seriously.

"I hate you." Zheng Xiujing, who didn't expect Lee Sang-hyuk to suddenly make such an intimate move, was caught off guard, and a trace of crimson immediately rose on her ruddy face.

Seeing Zheng Xiujing's cute appearance of sitting there in a slightly panicked manner, combing the long hair on her shoulders with her hands left and right, and then her big eyes swaying from side to side, Lee Sang-hyuk got up with a smile and took Zheng Xiujing's hand and said, "Let's go, let's go outside for a walk." ”

"Hey, aren't you afraid of being recognized?" Zheng Xiujing struggled slightly, and a trace of sweetness welled up in her heart and let Lee Sang-hyuk hold her hand and walk towards the bar.

"Don't be afraid, our Xiujing is so cute and beautiful, she will definitely attract everyone's attention to cover me." Lee Sang-hyuk smiled and turned his head to look at Zheng Xiujing beside him and said.

When the two walked to the bar to check out, Lee Sang-hyuk was surrounded by the waitress who recognized him as soon as he entered the door and asked for a few autographs, and after he signed them one by one with a smile, he took Zheng Xiujing's hand and walked out of the tea restaurant in the envious eyes of the waitresses looking at Zheng Xiujing.
