After the show ended, the online forums, the message area of the official SNS of "Music Bank", and even SM's official account immediately fell into trouble, becoming a place for Ariel and Yuan fans to vent their anger and resentment.
In fact, at the beginning of the live broadcast, when the two new MCs Ji Kyung Won and Bae Zhu Hyun appeared holding hands for the first time, many fans of Yuan's girlfriend and wife couldn't bear it when they saw that scene. At that time, many fans had already appeared on the Internet.
The offensive messages only burst out after the show ended.
"Ah, ah, I'm so angry. I'm really going to explode. Why doesn't this Irene die? Why is she standing next to Yuan with a big face licking her face? She actually held hands, Asiba, what the hell is she?
who is it?"
"Irene, the leader of SM's new girl group Red Velvet, was born in 1991 and is a fool."
"This Irene is an elderly person born in 1991. She is already the age of my aunt. She was very confused when she first debuted, but now she has improved a little bit. Why can she be paired with EXO? It's the worst choice.
A new actress is fine too."
"Can't you see this? It must be SM's usual method of nurturing the seniors to the juniors. I guess they saw that the parrot group's comeback performance was not as good as expected, and they wanted XO to bring them some attention, so they asked the two of them to partner up as MCs.
Let’s use Yuan’s popularity to lead this Irene. It’s obvious that the previous “Music Bank” host was not of this style. It must have been SM or this aunt who took the initiative to drag our Yuan to speculate on loveline for the sake of blogging. It really makes me sick.”
"I remember that Aunt Pei was very miserably opposed by us, and now she has jumped out again. She is really not afraid of being scolded. Seeing her standing next to Oppa and smiling so happily, I am really angry to death...
Does she have a personal SNS account? Go ahead and flush her to pieces."
"The figure is so bad, flat in front and concave in the back, and ugly. Those nasolabial folds can really pinch people to death. I'm still short, maybe 1.5 meters. I'm really worried that those high heels will pierce the stage. Or
My aunt was born in 1991, how can such a person still debut as an idol?"
The Allies pointed all their fingers at Bae Joo-hyun, who is Ji Kyung-won's partner. Originally, he was just an ordinary cooperating MC. However, due to the request of the program team this time, the MC's hosting style has changed a lot. Some
The intimate and tacit interaction made the fans very angry. All kinds of obscenities and merciless curses were directed at Bae Zhuhyun. Looking at her attitude, she wanted to force her to quit the group Red Velvet before she would give up.
At the same time, for the sake of easy memory and image, Ai Li immediately gave her many nicknames, such as dwarf, toad, etc. However, the most commonly used nickname was aunt, which was full of irony for her age.
Of course, EXO fan Aili will not blame her own idol, because under normal circumstances everyone knows that whether to accept a fixed MC mainly depends on the company's decision. In their opinion, Ji Kyung Won and Bae Zhu Hyun can work together as MC.
It was a drama created by SM where the senior leads the junior. This kind of thing was actually quite common before, but this time it may be that the two of them stood there and looked too affectionate towards each other, which directly triggered the anger of the fans.
I couldn't help but burst out.
However, red velvet is no longer the transparent little girl who just debuted last year. After a successful comeback, they now have their own fan base. They also try to defend and argue for Irene online, such as:
"It's just a normal regular guest collaboration, or a senior in the same company. Do you want to scold me so harshly?"
"Do you think we want to see Irene collaborate with that Yuan?"
Even the fans of red velvet were not very happy after seeing it, but they actually thought it was the seniors arranged by the company to take care of the younger ones, so they couldn't say anything to attack Chi Jingyuan, but tried their best to explain.
Unfortunately, Red Velvet's fan base and size are still too small, and male fans are simply unable to compete with the huge and angry female fans in this aspect. After a slight resistance, they were quickly crushed.
It's just that amid the passionate attacks and mutual quarrels from fans, all the more objective comments are like:
"Actually, I think these two are really compatible. They seem to be a perfect match, and some of their interactions are also very touching, and they are not annoying or offensive, which is really rare."
"The MC partner in "Music Bank" is really good-looking. He can be said to be the most eye-catching MC in history. It's very comfortable to watch."
"Normally I don't watch the MC sessions at all, but today I couldn't help but keep watching. Is there anyone like me?"
Positive comments about the program were also covered up, and some of them were also messages sent by Ellie, but unfortunately they were ignored by their stunned colleagues.
EXO fans have opened up a new battlefield besides their arch-enemy V.I.P. The targets of attack are their idol partners and junior girl group members of the same company, which has brought a lot of discussion and amazing popularity to passers-by.
Even the discussion about the new MC of "Music Bank" and the attacks on Bae Joo Hyun have overshadowed the views and evaluations of EXO's return to the first stage today.
The popularity is there, but the focus is off.
It can only be said that it is a blessing in disguise.
An ordinary singing show without any major mistakes or arguments, but it increased the ratings so much during the live broadcast, and there was such a high level of discussion after the end, I can only say that the program "Music Bank"
The team members are really good at selecting people. The partnership between Chi Kyung-won and Bae Zhu-hyun is very effective and the selection is very successful.
…
"Irene, the company expected that your collaboration with Yuan would arouse a lot of discussion and enthusiasm, but we didn't expect that EXO fans would be so fierce... But the company will deal with it. You'd better not watch it during this period.
Comments from the outside world.”
"After a while, the popularity subsides, and the public and fans become more accepting of your MC pairing. It will probably be much better."
Outside the practice room of red velvet, manager Quan Huiying called Bae Zhuhyun to the corridor and comforted him with the female team leader in a calm tone.
As a manager, she is not worried about how noisy the online fans are. After all, SM understands that black and red are also red, and they are already familiar with this kind of hype. Every group will do it before it becomes a big hit.
I've been there a few times, and even if the fans are peaceful and don't do anything, SM will find a way to get you to scold each other. Even if you don't scold others, it's okay to scold their own company.
I'm not afraid of being scolded, I'm just afraid that you won't pay attention.
After specifically reading the comments, Quan Huiying couldn't help but frown. The crazy fans of EXO and Ji Kyungwon's girlfriend on the Internet just scolded Bae Zhuhyun.
This group of little girls didn’t know where to find so many words to criticize black people. They carried out inhumane and all-round attacks from appearance to figure to age to strength. There were also many scandalous revelations surrounding Bae Joo Hyun’s debut experience and fabricated rumors.
, even Quan Huiying, who has been in the entertainment industry for a long time, can't help but feel that she can't stand it.
In addition, there are many disgusting methods, including specifically photoshopping various ugly pictures and distributing them on various forums, directly hacking into the other party's fan gathering place to kill the board, and calling for Irene to quit red velvet under the SM company account.
, some even went directly to Qingtai to launch a petition to have Bae Zhuhyun executed directly.
The last person who initiated the petition, Ai Li, is probably not very old...
It can only be said that Ai Li has been rampant in the Peninsula fandom in the past two years. She has been torn apart and has no opponent. She has defeated the previously arrogant V.I.P and can only barely resist. Their fighting ability is really not in vain.
And women know better how to scold women. Some words are really harsh and unpleasant.
Even if she wasn't herself, Quan Huiying, she was slightly angry after seeing it, let alone the leader, Bae Zhuhyun. She looked at her captain who was serious and silent with a little worry, and finally asked tentatively: "How about it still be the same as before?
Leave your phone with me first, wait..."
"It's okay, Ernie."
Suddenly a voice interrupted her. There had been silence for a while. Pei Zhuxuan, who was listening attentively, raised his head and looked at the manager with a smile: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, I was scolded last year. That time
It’s not any weaker than it is now, I’m actually used to it.”
Hearing these words, Quan Huiying couldn't help but pause for a moment. She looked at her captain carefully. Her fair face seemed a little tired, and the smile she squeezed out contained a touch of bitterness and a little optimism.
He looked a little reluctant, but his dark eyes were filled with persistence and perseverance, as if he was really unaffected.
"Okay, just remember not to read those messages. Don't worry, the company will definitely handle it. Your new album is already being prepared. Remember to talk to the members when you go back..." Quan Huiying nodded and said nothing.
After being so entangled, I talked about Ledbebe’s new album and then asked Bae Zhu Hyun to go back first.
She watched the petite Pei Zhuxuan in flat shoes open the door of the practice room and her back disappeared from her sight, but she sighed in her heart.
Who is used to being scolded? It is always sad to be attacked and insulted.
"Unnie, Huiying, what did Unnie say?"
As soon as Bae Zhuhyun walked into the practice room, Jiang Seulqi, who had been talking to Son Seungwan before, immediately looked at her with some worry, and several other members couldn't help but cast corresponding glances.
Of course they also saw the commotion on the Internet after today's singing session. Although they had expected that such a situation might happen, they didn't expect it to be so intense.
It turns out that when EXO first came out last year, fans just followed the trend and complained a few times, and were not really too angry. Only now their fighting power has really been shown.
It’s just that at the beginning, there were five people who could share the burden and comfort each other when they were sprayed together, but now there is only Bae Zhuhyun. I don’t know how the usually reserved Unnie felt after seeing it.
"It's okay..."
Facing the questions from her sisters, Pei Zhuxuan smiled casually. Her smile was far less forced than when she was in front of the manager outside. She naturally returned to her previous seat and sat down, waving her hand gently: "Huiying
Ernie just told me something about our new album, and we will start preparations soon."
"jinjia?"
"when?"
Pei Zhuhyun seemed to know her members very well. Sure enough, as soon as she mentioned this question, she immediately attracted everyone's attention. The two younger ones next to her couldn't help but screamed and asked. No one was asking what they had just said.
and things online.
This time "ice cream cake" swept away the decline of previous debuts and made Ledbebe a lot of popular. It was a small break out of the circle. Naturally, they wanted to strike while the iron was hot and looked forward to their next return. At the same time, this also represents
The company's importance and expectations for them.
"I heard this is a regular album..."
"Wow, it's true."
"Then I'm really tired. When will Ernie be sure?"
The practice room immediately became noisy, and several people discussed their next comeback. Bae Zhuhyun smiled and told several members about the news she knew, as if she had really talked about these things with her manager before.
Midway through, she glanced over and met Kang Seulgi, who was hesitant to speak with a clearly concerned look in her pupils. Bae Zhuhyun winked at her and smiled, and then continued to discuss the return of the new album with the members.
.
Only at the end, she briefly withdrew from the discussion of the members, listened to their voices quietly, sat on the edge of the practice room and leaned against the wall, her legs crossed together, looking at the dark screen of the mobile phone in her hand.
Stunned.
…
The effect of EXO's first stage seemed to be covered up by the fans' fierce rivalry, but the program also had a relaxing effect. At least after the program ended, there was a clear increase in G-chart sales in the evening. Although it was not a lot, it was at least significant.
Saw the effect.
By the next day, May 2, the first-day competition between EXO and BigBang had already produced a short-term result. In terms of music sources, BigBang's two songs "Loser" and "Baebae" stopped hitting the charts, and passers-by and listeners poured in.
In this case, it has basically occupied the top two spots in the major music source rankings.
In particular, the title song "Loser" is of extraordinary quality and has withstood the huge public attention and enthusiasm. It seems to be very popular with the audience. It firmly ranks at the top of the list and the listening rate remains high, breaking the charts several times in a row.
.
However, EXO's two songs only occupied the third and fourth positions behind them. Interestingly, the positions of the third and fourth songs were exchanged this morning. The non-hit "Orientation Sniper" surpassed "Love Me Right".
" became the third place, while XO's title song dropped to the fourth place. Although it obviously rushed up a few times after the stage performance at the beginning of yesterday, it did not maintain its position for too long, and judging from its listening
The curve and the number of people have gradually widened the distance from the previous three songs, and there is a tendency to fall behind.
Dance music does suffer a bit in terms of sound source, and the quality of "Love Me Right" is far from as high as that of dance music like "Roar". It's pretty good to have such an explosion.
Fortunately, "Orientation Sniper" has been liked by many people. It follows closely behind Big Bang without any intention of being left behind. At the same time, it also tries a few times from time to time to see if it can reach the second position.
Coupled with the fact that "Spring Day" was ranked fifth, the top five on Melon's daily chart were completely occupied by two boy groups. This strange scene immediately aroused a lot of discussion in the music industry and fans.
In terms of sales, there is no comparison. Not to mention the pre-sale results that were nearly ten times crushed, EXO easily sold 50,000 copies on the first day within 24 hours after its official release. As for Big Bang, in the fan club
Due to various relocations and crazy appeals from ZhongV.I.P, only 19,298 copies were sold as of midnight, and in the end, they did not reach the first-day sales of 20,000.
People with experience know very well that the sales volume on the first day of release is usually the highest in the entire comeback period. If there is no special stimulation in the future, such as a great singing stage, some direct-to-video hits, or BigBang members sacrificing themselves for others.
If you do good deeds and are praised by the media, your sales will not increase significantly.
Normally, the approximate sales volume of their first single "M" can be estimated. In addition, the final pre-sale target should be around 100,000 copies, maybe a little more.
It's just that by the second day, V.I.P no longer took the initiative to compare sales volume to humiliate himself. Even when he was blowing rainbow farts, he would just say "big sales" and just brush it off, or talk about the data.
Very nice sales numbers.
Fans of both BIGBANG and EXO are very satisfied with their achievements, and they have posted big-character posters in fan clubs and online to make the show go viral. Media outlets from all walks of life have either received promotion fees or want to take advantage of the popularity and have stepped in.
"Sohu Korean Entertainment News BIGBANG's new song "LOSER", released at 0:00 on May 1st, has maintained its No. 1 spot on the charts of major music sources such as MelOn, Bugs, Monkey 3, and Naver Music. "BAE BAE" is also following closely behind.
Ranked at No. 2, it makes people feel the terrifying power of "music powerhouse" BIGBANG."
"K-Information Station: EXO's comeback has become a trend with extraordinary popularity. Their music has topped many charts, and pre-sales have once again exceeded 500,000 copies, demonstrating the style of the TOP boy group."
"Naver: Bigbang and EXO started a boy band war in May. Each other has obvious advantages in their respective fields. The competition between you and me is extremely fierce. It has brought huge attention to the entire music industry and promoted the entire album and music market.
, injected fresh blood into Kpop and made a great contribution to the spread of Kpop."
…
"The news is all about Big Bang and EXO, it's so popular."
"really."
"It's just that I feel that looking at the current situation, EXO obviously has some advantages. Although the sound source cannot be beaten, it is not far behind. The sales volume has been crushed several times, and the popularity is not yet familiar. The seniors are a bit dangerous this time, ha ha ha.
"
In the practice room of YG's company building, four or five female trainees were getting together during the break. They didn't care that their clothes were soaked with sweat after practicing hard just now, and they were discussing the hottest topic in the music industry. Jin Ji Ni also
I don't know what I was thinking of, but I said the last sentence in a worried and gloating tone, and even laughed after I said it.
Several people next to her glanced at her and said nothing, especially Lisa and Park Caiying. As foreign or dual-citizen trainees, they need to be very careful about their words and deeds in daily life for fear of being caught doing something wrong and causing misunderstandings.
, completely unlike Jin Zhini who can be so careless and even a little unscrupulous due to various factors.
Although she is very polite and well-behaved in front of her seniors.
"Oh, by the way, which song of these two groups do you like better?" After watching the news for a while, Jin Zhini suddenly became interested, raised her head and asked.
"Of course it's a song by Big Bang's seniors. I like "Loser" better. It's really nice." Lisa thought about her words before speaking. After making sure they were correct, she glanced around and smiled before speaking.
"Me too, I prefer "Loser"." Seeing someone speaking first, Park Caiying nodded and agreed.
"I like the rhythm of "Baebae" is great, and the MV is also very good." Zhao Meiyan on the side also became interested and quickly responded, and then told her feelings after watching it in an emotional way.
The four of them, plus the silent Kim Ji-soo, are now the members of YG's girl group project pinkpunk. This project started screening a few years ago, and now there are only five of them left.
"Oh, it's so boring, why do you..."
Seeing these three people supporting her seniors wholeheartedly, Jin Zhini felt a little bored, and then looked at Jin Jixiu next to her: "Where are you, Jixiu?"
She seemed to be thinking about something just now and didn't pay attention. Jin Zhixiu, who was suddenly cueed, shook violently. She glanced at the surrounding situation with some confusion, then came back to her senses, her eyes were clear as if they were electrified, and she quickly nodded in agreement: "
Me? I also like "Loser"."
These losers looked at each other, as if they understood what the other person was thinking, and laughed together in tacit understanding.
"cut."
I thought these people were a bit boring, but because Big Bang was a senior member of their own company and needed to avoid suspicion, I didn’t dare to say that I liked EXO’s songs. Jin Zhini glanced at them and curled her lips speechlessly: “I just like EXO’s “Orientation Sniper”
, especially for my style, and Chi Jingyuan is so handsome..."
But unlike others, Jin Zhini is real.
"Oh, that's right." When she said this, she seemed to suddenly remember something, and her eyes lit up: "In a few days, should we ask the room director for a few places, and go and watch the singing and singing performances of these two boy groups?
Competition.”
"Huh?" Her words immediately attracted the attention of several girls next to her. After all, she is the most popular singer in the music industry today. No one would refuse to join in the fun and watch, not to mention that the target is a boy band - this kind of girl
An object of great interest to trainees.
"I'm looking at the dates. Both groups should be candidates next week. For "Show Champion" on Wednesday, I don't know if EXO will go, but Big Bang will definitely not go. It would be boring if there is only one group.
Yes, it would be interesting to compete for one spot on the same stage together... It should be No. 7's "M! countdown". This should be the first time since the return of two boy groups to compete for the first spot on the same stage.
Bit, giggle, it must be super interesting."
Jin Zhini looked at the calendar and made plans. As she looked at it, she thought of happy things and smiled like a little fox. She showed her two front teeth and looked very expectant. Finally, she raised her head and looked at her friend:
