"What is the teacher looking for me? It's not like I'm going to fail, is it? ”

Xu Ran sat opposite Li Wenshi, joking with the good relationship between the two.

Li Wenshi followed Xu Ran's words: "The hundreds of students I have taken have not been failed yet, do you want to be the first to be glorious?" ”

"Still can't, I can't afford this glory." Xu Ran immediately waved his hand to refuse, his face a little frightened.

"Hehehe, but speaking of which, the song you performed at the final show was really good. I've been singing for decades, and to be honest, I can't think of a few people who can sing so well at your age, with a good budget, and you can hear it, you have studied vocal music, right? ”

Li Wenshi closed his eyes, as if reminiscing about Xu Ran's performance.

Xu Ran scratched his head and was a little embarrassed: "I'm embarrassed by this praise from the teacher... But you're right, when I was in high school, I became interested in music and singing because of the influence of some other people, and after studying in depth, I found that I liked it very much, so I haven't thrown it away to this day. ”

Li Wenshi clapped his hands and smiled: "This couldn't be better." ”

"What? But teacher, you just said that your singing career... Were you a singer before? ”

Li Wenshi said "um": "It should be considered, but that's all in the past." I started as an underground singer in college, and I played in a band for a few years, but I didn't have much fame, only some people in the circle knew about me. ”

"And then?"

Later, I felt that there was no way out, so I went to some companies to do some vocal work. A few years ago, I felt that I was not too young and didn't want to work so hard, so I asked a friend to help me find a quiet errand at Seoul National University. ”

Xu Ran then understood why Li Wenshi was middle-aged but only a lecturer, and he was obviously an art teacher but did not teach in an art college.

However, what does this have to do with Li Wenshi looking for himself? While admiring, Xu Ran still didn't understand.

"You're from the Department of Business Administration, right, if I'm not mistaken, your grades are pretty good?" Li Wenshi suddenly changed his words.

"Well, you remember, teacher."

Xu Ran thought that Li Wenshi was finally going to get to the point, but Li Wenshi's next sentence took a sharp turn.

"Hmm... Yes, as an international student in China, have you ever paid attention to kpop, or do you have any favorite K-pop stars, such as some girl groups that you guys like very much, like Red Velvet? ”

“red velvet？” Xu Ran trembled in his heart when he heard this name.

In fact, Xu Ran has no concept of the current stars on the peninsula, including the women's group, but he knows about this group.

For some special reasons.

However, the level of knowledge was extremely limited, so limited that even if the five members of Red Velvet were standing in front of him now, he would only recognize one at most.

As for the Korean Wave, Xu Ran had a lot of contact with it when he was in middle school, but he didn't take the initiative to understand it that much, mainly because he was exposed to it in the general environment.

At that time, the classmates in the class were popular Ha Han, and the girl group girl's generation and the men's team stick were one of the hottest topics for the female students during their after-school meals, and then under the Amway of the female classmates, some boys also fell in love with the beautiful girl generation, and even the boys who imitated the stick and played cool were also very popular.

However, although it was quite influential in China, Kpop at that time was still not enough to see in Europe and the United States, and even the Wonder Girls, who were so red and purple in the peninsula, only hit a wall in the United States.

So after Xu Ran went abroad to study in North America, there was no Korean Wave environment around, and Xu Ran was basically insulated from Kpop.

- It's a pity that the communication with Koreans is not considered a Korean wave, otherwise Xu Ran must be proficient.

Xu Ran took a deep breath to suppress the throbbing in his heart: "I had contact with it when I was in China before, but I went abroad later, so I haven't paid attention to it in recent years." ”

Li Wenshi nodded to show that he understood, and finally put forward the topic: "Didn't you just say that you were going to apply for the school's work-study scholarship, I have a better choice here, I don't know if you are interested?" ”

Xu Ran's eyes widened, feeling a little incredible, could it be that Li Wenshi is the person in charge of this aspect of the school?

But as far as he knows, the teachers in charge of teaching at the university are very separated, not to mention that teachers of Li Wenshi's nature are no different from external hires.

Seeing Xu Ran's puzzled look, Li Wenshi explained: "That's the case, there is a production and distribution company in Seoul called Loen, I don't know if you've heard of it, before I came to school, I ended up working there for a few years in vocal music. ”

"When I was drinking with old friends in the company, I heard that because Loen was acquired by Kakao Group at the beginning of last year, there were a lot of affairs in the company that needed to be handed over after the change of majority, personnel changes, etc., and at the same time, I also wanted to develop some new business and do some innovation recently, and I was very busy."

Xu Ran listened patiently, Li Wenshi took a sip of water and moistened his throat and continued: "So I think, as a top student of the best university in this country, it should be good for you to go to Loen to help the helper, I have a little relationship in Loen, do you want to think about it?" ”

Hearing Li Wenshi's proposal, Xu Ran was stunned, and blurted out directly: "Production and distribution company Loen? If I'm not mistaken, what the teacher said is... IU... Loen...? ”

"You know IU, you think you really don't know anything about kpop." Li Wenshi was a little surprised.

Xu Ran smiled shyly, his eyes were a little dazed, as if he was recalling something.

For Xu Ran, what kind of existence is Li Zhien?

The irresistible love for her stems from a video that I accidentally swiped when I was bored after graduation, and she was so beautiful and eye-catching when she sang on stage.

With crystal eyes, sweet smile, pleasant voice, and smart posture, such a girl can really satisfy all the fantasies of a 15-year-old boy about his first love, and the youthful and lovely girlish atmosphere on her face makes Xu Ran fall into it.

If he had an element of echoing his classmates in his girlhood, then for Lee Ji-eun, he really wanted to take the initiative to get closer, and she also became the only Hallyu who continued to be in contact with him intermittently for a period of time after he went abroad.

He will listen to her songs carefully, he will also collect her albums, and the mobile phone wallpaper was once hers, and opening the mobile phone every morning to see her will make him feel good at the beginning of the day.

Later, seeing that she had finally become a general trend because of a song, and her singing strength was recognized, Xu Ran was very satisfied and happy, because the person she liked finally broke out of the cocoon and became a butterfly.

But that's just the old days.
