Peninsula Asteroid

Since April, two popular boy groups, EXO and Big Bang, have attracted great attention because their comeback dates coincided with each other, causing fans to fiercely fight each other in various places.

The popularity and popularity of the two groups are among the best. Coupled with various reasons, the competition with each other in the battle has greatly boosted a lot of popularity and attracted a large number of people who originally did not care about the two groups. The passer-by audience occupied most of the page during that period of time.

The four songs of the two groups in May did not disappoint fans and onlookers. The two groups almost dominated the top four of all music charts for a whole week. In the next week or two, despite EXO’s main The song "Love Me Right" fell behind, but "Orientation Sniper", an amazing hit song, suddenly emerged and was firmly locked in the top three of the music source. It was not until two or three weeks later that the ranking began to slowly fall down.

At the same time, due to the large amount of attention and the enthusiastic mutual quarrels between the fans of the two groups, many interesting memes and some very classic pictures and animations emerged. During the two-week comeback period, some very interesting things appeared almost every day. It's an interesting topic that makes people interested when they see it, and it's so lively that people can't take their eyes away.

The two boy groups collided for the first time on the show. After EXO won the first place, Choi Seunghyun's expression has become popular and has become a classic expression that can be seen everywhere in many forums. Even though it has been seen countless times, every time I watch it, The subtle changes in his expression, the stiff twitching of the corners of his mouth twice before forcing out a smile, still make people laugh.

It is really a lively scene that has not been seen in the music industry for a long time.

Even though EXO and Big Bang's comeback period in May was very short. They only returned for two weeks before they were busy with concerts. There were only a few songs in total, but they still brought joy to the audience. There have been several popular stages, as well as exciting fights and battles.

"Every day, those mushy groups are the most boring. They have to be torn apart like this to look good. Especially the top-level groups tearing each other apart are the most interesting..."

This is the truest feeling in the hearts of many viewers who experienced those two weeks.

After experiencing a short golden period in the music industry in May, most people have raised their expectations for the two boy bands to collide again in June.

And more importantly, there was no clear winner between the two boy groups in May. They were almost the same in terms of popularity and discussion. EXO's sales were overwhelming, and there were slightly more singers. Although the music source was not popular, But I have followed closely.

In the other half, BigBang has a few fewer songs, but they are ahead in terms of MV clicks on YouTube. They have huge popularity among the public and have a very obvious advantage in music sources. "Loser" did not fall down from the first place on the melon chart from the time it was announced until the end. However, he directly won the Melon championship for two weeks.

In general, both men's groups have advantages in their respective fields. Except for the extremely obvious gap in sales, there are winners and losers in several other categories. Generally speaking, they are evenly matched.

Although the fans on both sides made statistics, made rankings, controlled reviews, and even discredited each other for playing a wonderful game, the lack of a real winner made many people feel that something was missing, even the fans themselves. I feel that my full enthusiasm has not been fully vented.

That's why people are even more looking forward to this June clash, because everyone knows that this is the last of EXO's four single albums, and there will be no chance for them to continue playing in the future.

So no matter what, this time there must be a success or failure.

So at noon on the 25th, when SM released EXO’s first promotional poster and the title song, the news immediately became one of the hot searches, occupying the top spot with the EXO support # entry. The first two have caused a lot of discussion.

In fact, the song title "Boy with Luv" is no longer a secret, because Chi Jingyuan and the others performed a preview stage at the first concert. After the song ended, the song title has been circulated on the Internet, and even the " The lyrics and melody of "oh mymymy'" have also been posted online, and many fans can already sing it.

But the part that was just exposed was already very catchy, and this seemingly unrevealed look made many fans and passers-by feel itchy in their hearts.

In the publicity pictorial, the nine members of EXO are wearing light-colored suits on a sofa, with four sitting in front and five standing behind. There are no exaggerated expressions or movements, and the hair color is relatively ordinary. Revealing too much information. Even if they are sitting neatly or standing there, looking at the camera with a sunny smile, but with their movements and expressions, the entire pictorial is rendered in a warmer tone, which makes people feel very comfortable. .

At the bottom of the pictorial is printed EXO's LOGO, the song title "boy with Luv", and the date 6.1.

"Still totally handsome! XO is going to make a big comeback this time, I really can't wait."

"After watching the concert, I was very optimistic about "Boy with Luv". The chorus part is really nice. The results this time will definitely be better than the last time. The main thing is to see if I can suppress the band stealing."

"Is this comeback of the Obamas a completely new style, completely different from the last "Love Me Right"? I'm so looking forward to it!! I won't talk about the handsome promotional pictures, and it looks really great. Pre-order When will the window open? I wonder if there will be a single seal."

"SM has stated at the back that pre-orders for "L" will be open at midnight on the 26th. I also wanted to buy Yuan's single cover, but it seems to be out of stock this time. I guess I have to wait until the official release in July. I cursed like this The autograph session that Kuya has never held is probably going to have to wait until then. Although I like XO very much, it’s really disgusting that I still have to scold SM for the sake of better sales figures for the official album.”

"SM has already released EXO's trailer, but what about BigBang's? YG should come out quickly! The popularity has been taken away!"

The comments under the official account are constantly refreshing. From the jumping numbers and active comments, we can clearly feel people's enthusiasm for EXO's comeback.

It can only be said that the foundation laid by the previous consecutive comebacks is indeed very good. In addition to sweeping away last year's decline, it also reversed many people's impression of EXO and improved some of their sound source reputation in the eyes of the public. Many people who don't care much about it have also In the eyes of Kpop, or ordinary listeners who don't like boy bands, they are now just like Big Bang, no longer like most other ordinary boy bands, they have become a new special existence.

After experiencing several recent comebacks this year, regardless of whether they are anti-fans or not, the general public will basically no longer compare the boy groups that debuted at the same time with EXO. Although they are all third-generation boy groups, due to various aspects The data are completely different from each other, and the popularity and momentum are also very different, so they subconsciously think that these third-generation groups and EXO are no longer on the same track.

Nowadays, they are all compared to the previous generation’s summit or TOP group.

While fans were enthusiastically discussing who is the most handsome in this comeback pictorial, discussing how to raise funds, and discussing how good the new song is, and other passers-by were also calling on YG to release the BigBang trailer quickly, Chi Kyung-won was also there on the afternoon of the 26th. We arrived at the venue arranged by the organizer of the "Baeksang Arts Awards" and prepared before the opening.

…

"I feel that work is not ordered by your head, but should be guided by your heart. The original intention of a variety show should not be to pursue success, but to pursue a heart-pounding feeling."

“The initial and ultimate purpose should be to ‘bring people happiness’…

Listening to Luo Yingshi, who was sitting in front of him and talking about his variety show concept, Chi Jingyuan, although he didn't understand what he heard, still nodded in agreement.

It is the afternoon of May 26th. Chi Kyung-won is currently in the banquet hall of a hotel near Kyung Hee University in order to participate in the "Baeksang Arts Awards" to be held tonight.

Awards ceremonies such as "Baeksang" will have a red carpet. Before the red carpet starts, the organizer will often arrange a place nearby and gather many guests in advance, mainly to arrange the order and unify it later. Arrange a vehicle to show up at the ceremony to start the red carpet session.

In addition to this purpose, this place and time is also a convenient place for many people in the industry to socialize. After all, all the people present are guests who are eligible to participate in "Baeksang" tonight, as well as some from the organizer and JTBC The staff, many of whom are high-level people.

After Chi Jingyuan arrived, he habitually greeted a few acquaintances and seniors in the industry. As soon as he found a seat to sit down, he found Luo Yingshi, a well-known variety show director in the entertainment industry, sitting there. Next to him, after seeing him, he took the initiative to wave and call Chi Jingyuan over. The other party seemed to be very chatty or interested in him. He said hello and chatted for a few words, then asked about his current situation and then started to transfer. On top of the topic of variety shows.

Na Young-seok is considered to be the most popular variety show director in the entertainment industry in the past two years. He was already very famous as the producer of the national program "Two Days and One Night" when he was at KBS. In 2013, he resigned and switched to CJ EM. After joining tvN, he has repeatedly It has reached a new high, and the successive "Flower Series" have been very successful. In terms of variety show PD, it is considered the best on the peninsula.

Not even one.

He looks a bit arrogant, but when he talks about his job, he speaks in one word.

"But even though I say that, the thing that helps me the most is 'luck'." After speaking, Luo Yingshi laughed at himself and sighed with some reserve: "I am still relatively casual when I work."

"PDnim is too self-effacing. Being lucky many times is of course based on personal strength..."

Chi Jingyuan also smiled and praised, but there was some slander in his heart:

If I hadn't known that you were a candidate for the Grand Prize in the TV category of "Baeksang" today, I would have believed it.

He was a little surprised at the other party's enthusiasm at first, because although he had met the other party before, he didn't have much communication with him, and he wasn't very familiar with him. However, after chatting for a while, he discovered that Na Young-seok also graduated from Yonsei University. His senior, and it seems that for some special reasons, he usually pays close attention to him and is very optimistic about him.

Although I don't know why, given that the other party can be so enthusiastic and talkative, of course Chi Jingyuan will not refuse.

"Have Jing Yuanqian seen the "Flowers" series?" Luo Yingshi ended the topic of his variety show concept with some hesitation, but then he changed the subject and asked again.

"Have seen a little bit."

Chi Jingyuan nodded.

The other party said that the series "Grandpas Over Flowers", "Sisters Over Flowers" and "Youth Over Flowers" he has launched in the past two years have achieved good ratings and popularity, and are one of the more prominent variety shows in the past two years.

What he said was correct. He had only seen a little bit of it.

"At the time of "Youth Over Flowers", we actually really wanted to invite you to be one of the guests, but the invitation sent to SM was rejected by your company..."

Speaking of this, Luo Yingshi seemed a little regretful, and then looked at Chi Jingyuan and said seriously: "I have watched some variety shows you participated in. Although there are not many scenes, it is still easy for you to just sit there and do business. Become the center of conversation and jokes..."

"And from the audience's point of view, every time after you briefly appear on the scene, when the scene shifts to other EXO members or MCs, they will actually have some wonderful expectations for your next appearance or speech. I just want to see it. The feeling when you appear in the camera... you don't speak much throughout the whole process but you have a strong sense of presence. This quality is really rare in variety shows."

As he said that, he smiled: "And I found that Jingyuan, you don't perform very well every time you go on variety shows. Although you are very good in succession, you don't say much overall. Is it arranged by your company, or are you just not good at it? I like these so much… I guess it’s the latter, right?”

"It's a little bit." Chi Jingyuan didn't deny it. After thinking for a while, he nodded: "It's okay for people who are close to me. If you are not very familiar with me, you will be a little uncomfortable communicating, especially in front of the camera."

"Indeed, you can see it." Hearing this, Luo Yingshi showed a clear expression: "But this trait of yours is so precious. I have actually been following you for a long time, and I have always wanted to find an opportunity to cooperate with you. Not only The kind that comes as a guest on a flight..."

The other party's enthusiasm and sincere praise made Chi Jingyuan feel a little embarrassed. He quickly bowed gently to express his gratitude, and then showed a kind smile, looking very expectant: "Kang Sangmida, I'm really honored that PDnim can say this. If you have a chance, you must remember me."

"Haha, of course, there will be." Luo Yingshi also laughed.

I don't know if it was just a scene or if it was really serious, but overall the atmosphere was very good, and Chi Jingyuan and Luo Yingshi got to know each other a lot.

Chi Jingyuan chatted with Luo Yingshi for a long time before he bowed and left. After walking a few steps, he saw Park Shin Hye not far away who had also just finished chatting with an actor. After seeing him, she smiled and said He waved, and Chi Jingyuan smiled and walked over.

"Why do I feel like I haven't seen you for a while? Nuna has matured a lot. Did you take on any challenging roles recently?"

"Yeah, isn't it a bit too much for you to say that? Are you saying I'm old?"

Although they didn't meet much in private after "The Heirs", the contact has never been broken. Especially with Park Shin Hye's dedicated closeness, the relationship between Ji Kyung Yuan and her has always been quite good. He is one of the few familiar friends in the film and television industry.

Not long ago, in order to support him, the other party went to their first EXO concert to support him, and even took a certified photo on his SNS. At that time, Chi Jingyuan also expressed his gratitude. The two of them also because of this matter Chatted for a while.

"How do you feel, Nuna? Are you hopeful today?" After a few pleasantries with a smile, Chi Jingyuan asked casually.

Park Shin Hye is here today as a nominee for the 'Best Popular Actress' in the film category.

In addition to her success last year in "Pinocchio," which was about the same period as "Misaeng," she also starred in the period film "Shang Hospital," which was released at the end of the year.

It's a pity that this movie failed at the box office and had a mediocre reputation. By the time it was released, the number of box office attendances had not exceeded 1 million. It was considered a tragic failure for her to enter the film industry.

However, it does not affect her popularity. The foundation laid by "The Heirs" still exists. Last year's "Pinocchio" was also very popular, so Park Shin Hye is still one of the most well-known actresses of the younger generation.

"I'm wearing this dress today, what do you think?" As if sensing the malice in Chi Jingyuan's heart, Park Shin Hye glanced at him angrily, lowered her head and gestured to her exquisite long skirt, her expression casual but full of confidence. .

She has won the Female Actor Popularity Award several times in a row, and few people can compete with her.

It just feels a bit weird to receive the Popularity Award for a movie project when the movie is a huge hit at the box office...

After laughing and chatting for a while, we parted. After all, we are already acquaintances and just saying hello is enough. For actresses like Park Shin Hye, normal social interactions are still very important.

After greeting several senior actors, Chi Kyung-won met another idol who was an acquaintance, Kim Seol-hyun of AOA.

Kim Seol-hyun's resources are quite good, and she is the best in the entire AOA group. Last year, she starred in the movie "Gangnam 1970" with Lee Min-ho and was nominated for the best new actor.

It seems that because they are both idols who have switched careers as actors, or because they have known each other before, or for some other reason, Kim Seol-hyun seemed a little happy when she saw Chi Kyung-won, and took the initiative to come over and talk for a while.

Idol actors themselves are not favored in the film and television industry, and they are also disliked and disliked by many actors who come in to grab resources, so the situation has not been very good, and companies like FNC do not have many resources in film and television. She One can imagine some of the treatment they encountered.

Kim Seol-hyun wore very beautiful makeup today, and she was wearing a pale pink patterned dress that showed off her figure very well. When she sat there with her legs stacked diagonally, the lines of her waist, hips and chest were immediately outlined, adding to the Her face still looks a bit innocent under the delicate makeup, which is really pleasing to the eye.

She obviously knows her advantages very well.

After glancing at her with appreciative eyes, Chi Jingyuan also sat there and started chatting with her. Kim Seol-hyun, who had just entered the film and television industry, was obviously looking forward to today's award. Maybe she wanted to win the Newcomer Award. My career as an actor is easier, and I guess dressing up so beautifully is because I want to show my face on the big stage of "Baeksang", which is a normal thought.

It's just that Ji Kyung-won took the time to look at some of the award nominations given to him by the company for this year's "Baeksang" in the past two days. The competition for the female newcomer award in the film category is very fierce, and Kim Seol-hyun didn't perform much in "Gangnam 1970" Excellent, especially since he is an idol.

Forget it, it doesn’t matter if you get the prize or not, as long as it’s beautiful.

After talking for a while, she rubbed her right leg together and sat up from the sofa with her chest raised and her buttocks raised. She covered her chest and waved her hands to say goodbye. Say goodbye and leave.

Not long after Jin Xuexuan left, Chi Jingyuan turned his attention back to himself. He was a little tired from social chatting with several colleagues. When he was about to take out his mobile phone to check the time, a black figure stepped from the side. He took a step closer and walked over slowly.

Judging from the timing of her arrival, she had obviously been observing for a while.

Hearing the noise, Chi Jingyuan raised his head and moved his eyes from bottom to top. The first thing that caught his eye was a pair of blue round-toe stiletto thick-soled high heels. The crimson nail polish looked very conspicuous. They were just above the curve of the calf. The black patterned hollow long skirt, the pure black background and the looming white skin complement each other, with an excellent waist-to-hip ratio, and before even seeing the face, I feel a subtle sense of sultry in my heart.

Above, a head of long black hair, with the right end of the hair tucked behind the ear, completely revealing the outline of the ear. Jung Soo-jung, whose makeup is natural but revealing of caution, is blinking and smiling, talking to Chi Jing After Yuan's eyes met, she gently pursed her lower lips and spoke calmly:

"What a coincidence?"
