Chapter 491 East Gate
~Date: ~October 29th~
New Year's Day is very simple. As artists, Jin Shengyuan and others cannot enjoy the lively gathering like ordinary people, but their ears have been filled with the hustle and bustle of a year, and this real and warm family dinner allows them to enjoy it even more.
On January 2, Kim Sung-won went to Jiang Hudong's barbecue restaurant to attend their party.
During this period, he was inevitably filled with wine by everyone. One reason was that Jin Shengyuan did not participate last year, and no matter what the reason was, he should be punished; another reason was that he had just entered 2009. Although Jin Shengyuan had not made any moves, the afterglow that belonged to him at the end of last year had not disappeared, and it can even be said that he was still at a peak, so he naturally could not avoid being filled with wine by his predecessors.
Fortunately, this was just a gathering for relatives and friends, and everyone did not intend to get him drunk. Therefore, Jin Shengyuan did not feel any repulsive, and he took all the jokes from his predecessors one by one. He used occasional humor, occasional connotation, and occasionally a little scoundrel (he was the youngest of all the party members), and responded to each predecessor one by one, which was quite like the momentum of "Zhuge Liang fighting against scholars" in the Three Kingdoms.
You should know that most of the scenes are hosts, funny artists, eloquence, and reaction are the first basic skills. Although everyone did not deliberately make things difficult for Jin Shengyuan, Jin Shengyuan was able to respond neither humbly nor arrogantly under the teasing of many seniors, which surprised everyone.
Before, many people were dissatisfied with Kim Sung-won's popularity in the acting arts, believing that he was just because he had too much popularity and was supported by Jiang Hu-dong. After contacting him personally, although he was not completely convinced, he had already recognized his ability, and the eloquence and reaction he showed on the spot was enough.
It was not until two o'clock in the afternoon that Kim Seung-won left Kang Ho-dong's barbecue restaurant and was driven by Park Jung-yoon. The artists gathered, and their agents would naturally have another party, including assistants, stylists, etc. As always, Choi Hyun-joon was also drunk by many seniors like Kim Seung-won.
On the way, Jin Shengyuan lay in the back seat and suddenly felt emotion: "It is convenient to have his own lawyer." Although jsy company is not large in scale, he has his own lawyer because he has planned it and is not using funds.
After Kim Sung-won asked to tell his lawyer his bottom line, he would be responsible for negotiating with the representatives of SBS TV station about the relevant matters of the TV series "The Brilliant Legacy". If there are any undecided details, just call Kim Sung-won.
In this way, Jin Shengyuan's work is much easier.
Today, Kim Sung-won doesn’t plan to do any work. Tomorrow is his birthday. As an artist and a top popular artist, he cannot spend his birthday silently with a few friends. So, he gave himself a day in advance and spent the day.
Taeyeon and the others are catching up on time to rehearse the dance and have no time to accompany him.
This morning, the trailer for their latest title song "Ge" MV has been released and will be launched soon. New Year's Day can be regarded as their last relaxing break.
...
With the development of the times, the current festivals have gradually lost the same atmosphere as before.
In the past three days of New Year's Day, the traffic on the streets of Seoul almost disappeared. However, on the streets of Seoul, there are still many shops open even on New Year's Day. On January 2, most shops have resumed normal business, and the flow of people has poured on the streets again.
Although it was said to be relaxing, when Kim Sung-won just returned to the company in the afternoon, he sorted out all the songs from last year and made a summary.
Undoubtedly, his album sales are the well-deserved king of sales in 2008, and the sales of his mini albums are enough to match the total number of albums sold by some artists in a year.
Now, his pure music "Father, Mother" has been rated as a classic by all Korean music specials. The combination of piano and vocals has created a new admiration for the music industry. Many people in the music industry have begun to pursue the simplest and most realistic sound - the sound produced by the human vocal cords.
Now the sales of "Father, Mother" has reached 870,000 copies. The only regret is that due to the impact of the Internet, it has failed to achieve the million-dollar sales that everyone has expected.
The sales of the single album "pleasetellmehy" were not very good (in Kim Sung-won's opinion). Moreover, the sales of this album were more of the "gimmick" of Kim Sung-won's return to the ballad industry after eight years, and the influence of "Father, Mother".
"Stay by My Side" is the most satisfying album of Kim Seung-won. It is also known by the music industry as Kim Seung-won's masterpiece, and the most classic album in 2008! A mini album can sell the sales of a regular album. What is this?
Many people believe that if Kim Seon-won had made this album into a regular album, the sales would have been more than 500,000 easily.
The sales volume of the regular album "Believe" was caused by the song "Letter to You, 15 years old" on campus. In addition, Kim Sung-won's popularity "East Wind" at the end of the year, he achieved sales of more than 400,000 yuan, which made Kim Sung-won himself and many fans who were looking forward to his breakthrough again.
But no matter what, Kim Seon-won's "shocking" has been rated as one of the top ten news in the Korean entertainment industry in 2008.
At the end of 2008, the authoritative Korean TV magazine "magazicom" selected the "30 most influential people in the broadcasting industry". The biggest change was that Kang Ho-dong, who ranked 29th last year, rose to fifth place, and Kim Seon-won, who had never been on the list before, emerged and ranked seventh place as soon as he appeared.
Although Kim Sung-won's ranking is quite controversial, some people think that he is only very popular and has not had such great influence yet. But many people think that Kim Sung-won's ranking is well deserved, and his influence lies in diversity. His influence alone is enough to win this honor based on his influence in the post-80s generation.
The controversy on the Internet did not affect this list.
After the list came out, it was once again a good story, because the fifth, sixth and seventh on the list were Jiang Hudong, Yoo Jae-suk, and Kim Shengyuan.
In addition, South Korean President Lee Myung-bak ranked 14th.
...
2008 was a year of good harvest for Kim Shengyuan. He just summarized the benefits of music. The economic benefits are still in operation and cannot be counted for the time being. However, the revenue of jsy has been counted by reporters for him, and it is roughly different. All other matters are left to Cui Xianjun and others to sort out.
After summarizing it, Kim Sung-won sorted out some mistakes, ignored places and things worth learning from for a long time ■After finishing these, he informed Choi Hyun-jun, changed into clothes, and left the company alone.
The fans who followed Jin Shengyuan did not restrain themselves due to exposure. On the contrary, more people were ready to move. Every day, some fans would wander at the door of his company, and several cars appeared almost every day.
To avoid being followed again, Kim Sung-won took an employee's vehicle to leave through the side door.
More than ten minutes later, Jin Shengyuan got off the bus outside Dongdae Gate.
Dongdaemun, originally named Xinginjimen, is the gate on the east side of the Seoul city wall. Dongdaemun Market, located near Dongdaemun, is one of the most famous traditional markets in Seoul and is famous for its low prices.
Dongdaemun Market consists of 29 large market buildings, more than 30,000 specialized stores and more than 50,000 manufacturing companies. The maximum daily mobile population exceeds 4 million, making it a veritable shopping kingdom of Seoul.
At this moment, it was already 4:30 pm. Jin Shengyuan had no interest in the scenery near Dongdaemen. During the filming of "two days and one night", he had become accustomed to various scenery. What he wanted to do most now is to stroll in popular places.
The reason for choosing the Dongdaemun market is that there are enough people here and it is lively. Moreover, the street snacks in Dongdaemun are not inferior. Various snacks often make some tourists linger, including spicy fried rice cakes, fish balls, chicken skewers, Korean pig trotters... Jin Shengyuan has not eaten since the party, just to wait until now.
As for being discovered, there is basically no possibility of this.
For this trip, Jin Shengyuan was not hesitant to his image (it seemed that he had already lost all his image in "Two Days and One Night" and "Infinite Challenge"), cotton boots, stagnant cotton pants, and scattered down jackets that were as big as breathless, which made his upper body fat, with an old-fashioned hem on his head, two ear-protecting hems covering half of his cheeks, and a pair of black-framed glasses. His face was clean and clean without any makeup.
Moreover, except when he lowers his head to eat, he will always wear a sky blue mask (the sky blue mask has become popular because he has become popular) and also wear gloves on his hands. It is strange that he can be recognized!
After walking around, although Jin Shengyuan doesn’t like most clothes, he occasionally buys some small accessories, gloves and other things with unique shapes. Of course, he will stop and taste them when he sees his favorite snacks.
Jin Shengyuan's taste is completely inconsistent with his value. I am afraid that many people would never have imagined that Jin Shengyuan, which has always been luxurious, would appear in Dongdaemen.
Before we knew it, it was already six o'clock in the afternoon, and the lights were on. From this moment on, countless shoppers rushed into the Dongdamen market from all directions, as if the wind and clouds were gathering. And more and more, they soon formed a formation of people moving around and shoulder to shoulder.
Jin Shengyuan was very glad that he didn't drive here.
Even on January 2, the market was still brightly lit, crowded with people, and traffic turned the road into a mobile parking lot.
Moreover, as time goes by, there are more and more shoppers, and the Dongdaemun Market has always been famous for its large number of late-night shoppers.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, at the entrance of the first area where Doosan Tower is located, major shopping malls will hold various prize-winning activities such as singing and dancing competitions directly participated by young customers, which is also a major landscape of the Dongdaemun Market.
Starting from 6:40, the crowds around gradually gathered here, crowding the surrounding area tightly.
Kim Seung-won also squeezed in with great enthusiasm.
"Really, uncle! If you are afraid of the cold, don't come out at night. If you wear such a thick dress, you will occupy space for two people alone!" Jin Shengyuan was "driving with the flow" when he suddenly heard a young female voice in his ear. He had not paid attention to it, but after more than ten seconds, he suddenly realized that the other party should be talking about himself.
"When did I become an uncle?" Jin Shengyuan turned his head depressedly, but could no longer find the owner of the voice.
At this moment, a soft female voice sounded behind him: "Well, uncle, sorry, can we change our positions? You are too tall, I can't see anything in front of you."
Jin Shengyuan pinched his chin hard and turned around and saw a girl in her early twenties looking at him. Because of her height, he saw a small black mole on the tip of the girl's nose at first sight.
