debut [entertainment]

The news that Kim Yoo-hee was nominated for seven Grammys was naturally not missed by the major media in South Korea, and it hit the headlines of major websites without any accidents.

Her current status in South Korea can be described as "the light of South Korea" in the announcements of major media, although she herself does not think so.

Especially in these press releases, many media positioned her music as "KPOP going international", which made her somewhat dumbfounded.

The album "Rainbow" is an all-English rock album. Even the Korean version of "Cool Girl", which was first released in South Korea, is funk music that does not take the usual path. It can be seen that this song is not liked by the South Korean public at all.

Who would have thought that since MASKCROW and Kim Yoo Hee were equated, her "Rainbow" has become a KPOP in South Korea?

But Kim Yoo-hee himself doesn't mind these minutiae. After all, "Rainbow" is a K-pop positioning in South Korea. Who would say that MASKCROW is a K-pop outside of South Korea?

Because of this, although she herself didn't mind it, her fans started pinching each other at some point.

Among them, the hardest ones are South Korean fans and North American fans.

[Why is it not KPOP music?Kim Yoo Hee debuted in South Korea, and the first album "Cool Girl" was also released in South Korea, right? 】

【EXM?Has it become KPOP music since it was released in South Korea?I am convinced by the logic of you South Korean fans. 】

[I don’t think there is a Korean word in “Rainbow”?All in English, you mean KPOP music? 】

[Hehe, I think you are just jealous that Kim Yoo-hee is from South Korea. 】

[Can't you see the word American?blind?When did you become a South Korean? 】

【Why not?Kim Yoo-hee came to South Korea as a trainee at such a young age, didn't he receive training from our trainees in South Korea?Education is also from South Korea, right? 】

[The upstairs is a fake fan, right?Fans who don't know that Kim Yoo Hee skipped a grade and went to Berkeley?What does it have to do with being educated in South Korea after Berkeley dropped out of school? 】

[What about "PRODUCE 101"?Do you dare to say that Wuli Youxi did not debut in South Korea? 】

[The question is double-sided again. Debuting in South Korea means that the music in the future will be KPOP?This logic you taste, you carefully taste...]

Seeing this fight intensified, at this time, Jin Youxi, as the righteous master, could no longer ignore this voice.

She directly sent a tweet, not as comprehensive as others thought, but directly stated the position of the album "Rainbow" at the beginning.

This is a rock album.

If it is not a pop genre, it is naturally not the so-called KPOP.

The reason why Kim Yoo-hee chooses to say this is very simple: the first and most important reason is that her album is not KPOP in the first place; In the category, but in the popular category, are the Grammy judges blind and deaf?Can't even tell the style of the album?

Immediately after this tweet was posted, Ethan, who is also the producer, also forwarded it one after another, repeatedly emphasizing the word "rock".

The attitudes of the two album producers were clearly stated, and the South Korean fans were suddenly dumbfounded.

[Hahahaha I laughed so hard, this is too embarrassing. 】

[Tell them to insist that this is KPOP, don't slap your face too quickly. 】

[What about people?Why don't you talk anymore?Wasn't it very active before? 】

……

However, this quarrel and flameout still dealt a blow to some South Korean fans to a certain extent. Under the incitement of someone behind the scenes, there were quite a few fans who even turned back to "Kim Yoo-hee doesn't care about South Korea at all".

It was at this juncture that the 59th Grammy Awards Ceremony began to be held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, USA.

This arena is really an "old acquaintance" for Jin Youxi. Not long ago, she took her family to hold a "racial discrimination" charity concert here. There were waves, and people finally turned their attention to Asians, who are also a minority in North America.

And this turmoil has not stopped, and the protests have not stopped, especially when the case of racial discrimination against the paparazzi is approaching trial.

And that reflected on this year's Grammy stage.

The opening performance of this year was "Hello" brought by Adele. After the song was finished, the live camera turned directly to the host James Corden, who is famous for his "Carpool Karaoke Show" and "Late Night Show". All major international singers around the world have been in his car, singing with him in the car as if they were in karaoke. During the interval between each song, he will also conduct a short and cordial interview with the guests.

His hosting style is different from other people. James is not sharp, but very approachable, so that the guests don’t feel that they are being interviewed during the interview. Instead, they seem to be chatting with friends, and they naturally express their hearts. Speak up.

Even if the question is sometimes a bit sharp, he can also ask it quietly like a silky chocolate, and the person being interviewed will not feel offended at all.

This ability is not something ordinary hosts can do.

Because of this, he was also seen by Grammy and invited him to host this year's 59th Grammy.

It's his first time hosting a Grammy, but it's not the first time he's hosted such a large live awards show.

His experience is not lacking. On the contrary, he has presided over the award ceremony of the Brit Awards several times. For him, this kind of occasion is basically at his fingertips.

There was no sign of any tension in him at the scene, and his language was fluent. He didn't miss any of the hot topics, stalks, and jokes that should be made. There were tens of thousands of viewers on the scene and tens of millions of viewers in front of the live TV. Said it in front of him.

The topic of "racial discrimination in Asian groups" which is currently a hot topic has naturally been mentioned. When this topic was mentioned, the live broadcast camera also shot to MASKCROW Jin Youxi who was in the first row of seats below the stage and her right hand Father Kim Jong Kook.

James said on stage: "BLACKLIVESMATTER, ASIANLIVESEITHER, RIGHT"

And everyone below the stage nodded one after another, words such as "Yeah" and "Damnright!" gathered together and were directly conveyed to all parts of the world through the live microphones.

A single spark can start a prairie fire.

Such a small flame started by Kim Yoo-hee has gathered a small sea of ​​flames since the charity concert, and through this Grammy, this small sea of ​​flames may be able to expand a little bit, so that they can be heard, seen, and Pay attention to.

The farther you are from discrimination, the closer you are to equality.

One day, Asians will no longer be that neglected group, and no matter when they are educated at a young age, or when they enter the society at an older age, there will no longer be such prejudices that judge good or bad abilities by skin color .

After the host James opened, the first award that needs to be handed out is the "Best Newcomer of the Year" award.

This award can be said to be almost without suspense.

In the music circle throughout the year of 2016, among the endless newcomers, there is no singer who can tie with MASKCROW's "Rainbow" album.

MASKCROW, as a monster newcomer who has sprung up all of a sudden, brought his first album, which is also a masterpiece, which is invincible in the music industry. It is so popular that even the first-line singers will lose their edge. Who can take away the basics? What about the expected "Rookie of the Year" award?

If this award is really given to other singers, then the Grammys may usher in another huge wave of shady controversy.

So when Jennifer Lopez, who was the award presenter, said the name "MASKCROW" in front of the microphone, Kim Yoo-hee at the bottom of the stage was very calm. Lifting the dress skirt, walked to the stage.

She took the gramophone handed over by Jennifer and stood in front of the microphone.
