Facing Chi Jingyuan's teasing, Zhou Ziyu snorted softly. At this time, she seemed to have remembered something. The joy in her voice was suppressed, and she said with a little reserve, "A few days ago"
I didn’t even reply to the text messages I sent you, so why did you call me so late?”
"What's the value of the nonsense you posted...and it was already very late when I saw it."
After making a casual remark, before Zhou Ziyu could be dissatisfied, he immediately continued with a half-truth: "I heard other members talking about you when we were having dinner, and suddenly I wanted to call you."
"Oh? The members of XO? What did they say about me?"
The little dissatisfaction that had arisen a second ago because of Chi Jingyuan's perfunctory answer was instantly forgotten. Zhou Ziyu's attention was immediately drawn away, her tone changed, and she asked softly and curiously.
She would never really be angry with Chi Jingyuan...
"They say you're good-looking."
Chi Jingyuan stood in front of the window, looking at the night view outside, and said in a lazy voice: "What is not photogenic? I look better in private than in the camera. What purple hair style is great, and then my face is small and so on. I talked about it a lot.
...I thought they were fooled by something you dropped."
"Really? Hee hee, who said that?... Disgusting! What a surrender!"
Zhou Ziyu's voice on the phone was obviously filled with irrepressible happiness and pride, and even the complaints behind her sounded like coquettishness.
After saying that, she seemed to have remembered something, and arrogantly brought up the old score: "Last time, you said my purple hair was not good-looking!"
"But I still have the same view."
Chi Jingyuan replied coldly.
At that time, because she had no makeup and straight hair, she looked lackluster... But after seeing many of the girl's later stage photos and makeup photos, especially the purple curly hair style, he actually felt that, well, it's actually pretty good.
.
But he would not show timidity in front of Zhou Ziyu, and he would still be stubborn and stubborn.
"Hehe~"
But he knew Zhou Ziyu, and Zhou Ziyu also knew him very well. She seemed to sense something from his tone, and was not annoyed at all by his reply. Instead, she laughed happily.
Hearing the smug laughter in his ears, Chi Jingyuan did not defend himself. He smiled and asked casually: "How do you feel about your recent comeback? Twice has really become a trend this time."
"Hmm...really, very good."
Maybe it was because she was excited about this explosive comeback, or maybe it was because Chi Jingyuan was on the phone at this time, and Zhou Ziyu seemed very talkative, chattering in her sweet and sticky accent.
started talking.
On the day of the release of the song "TT", I was very excited when I saw the results and reviews. I talked about the hard work and exhaustion of practicing dance before.
Many more people came to their return showcase than before, and many more fans came to watch "Music Bank" on their way to work. She also received many gifts and letters from fans.
From the time she participated in a TV station recording event, even the attitude of the PD and MC became better, to the conversation she had with some male idols when she went to record a singing show the day before yesterday.
Anyway, just say whatever comes to mind, and show your emotions in the past few days in front of Chi Jingyuan, without hiding anything.
Across the phone, Chi Jingyuan could feel the happiness and a little bit of disbelief in her tone. The return of "TT" this time was a big surprise for Zhou Ziyu or all Twice members.
It's a big transformation and sublimation.
However, as she spoke, her tone gradually became lower, and the excitement in her tone dissipated quickly.
"It's just that, although I'm very happy...but I'm really tired recently."
"I have to get up at four or five in the morning every day to do styling. The schedule is so full that there is no time at all."
"I often have to stay up all night to record variety shows. Sometimes even if I can rest at night, I can only sleep for two or three hours."
"And sometimes I don't sleep well at all."
"I'm really...so tired."
Zhou Ziyu's voice was getting weaker and weaker from the phone. The tone that sounded radiant just now sounded so sad that it made people feel distressed.
She wasn't complaining, Chi Jingyuan could tell that she was not dissatisfied.
It's just a way of confiding, I want to express to Chi Jingyuan the thoughts that have been accumulated in my heart during this period.
Sometimes it will be much better to talk it out and share it with people close to you.
Zhou Ziyu talked for a long time, and after listening to the voice, she had no energy left and didn't want to hang up the phone. However, Chi Jingyuan didn't give her this chance. After urging her to sleep, he simply hung up the phone.
"well……"
He closed the window and sat back on the bed. Zhou Ziyu's voice just now kept echoing in his mind. Thinking of Yu Dingyan's phone call just now, he couldn't help but sigh.
High popularity brings the burden of high popularity, and low popularity brings the sorrow of low popularity.
No matter when, everyone will always face various troubles...but after growing up in such troubles, they will become mature.
Chi Jingyuan can feel that both Zhou Ziyu and Yu Dingyan, just one year after Twice debuted, are much more mature than they were before.
Chi Jingyuan can't do anything about Zhou Ziyu's recent heavy schedule. After all, this is something that all popular idols must experience.
But it seems that at least she should be able to sleep well today.
Seeing the 'good night' message on the phone that Zhou Ziyu sent after hanging up the phone, Chi Jingyuan smiled and replied to her with an emoticon.
Feeling the residual heat radiating from the phone, Chi Jingyuan thought for a while and called Mingjing Nan again.
Alas, I suddenly feel like I am running out of time...
…………
While EXO is actively carrying out its own concerts in Neon, the music industry here on the peninsula is also turbulent. It is also the peak season for idols to return. Twice's overwhelming strength and CBX's huge popularity have not stopped various agencies and idol groups from joining forces.
Enthusiasm, in just one week many popular first-line artists have released songs and made comebacks.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! First, VIXX, a popular boy group that was once a rival of EXO, released its sixth single album "Hades" on October 31st. This is also their third concept project.
This is the final chapter of the song, and both the fans and the idols themselves responded with great enthusiasm.
Although the title 'EXO's Rival' has a bit of a yin and yang meaning, the fifth single album in May hit EXO, and then was directly crushed by "MONSTER", which also had a dark style and also hit a different style, but so far VIXX 2016
The total album sales for the whole year have exceeded 270,000 copies, ranking sixth in the total album sales of Peninsula singers in 2016. They are still a very powerful and popular boy group.
Then there is what many people are looking forward to. Blackpink, YG's new girl group, officially debuted in August and released a song again after more than two months. On November 1, they released their second single album "SQUARE TWO"
》
Judging from YG's past habit of "making artists feel uncomfortable if there is not a year or two between every comeback", Blackpink's comeback at the speed of light this time is uncharacteristic.
As a monster newcomer who has been promoting for several years but has lived up to expectations, and his debut song has won the first and second crown of the music source, Blackpink's return this time certainly has the sharpness to strike while the iron is hot, and it is bound to win.
And their songs are really eye-catching.
The title song "Playing With Fire/Playing with Fire" sparked a buzz as soon as it was released. Although the explosion of music sources is not as amazing as the debut song "Whistle", it still shows strong popularity and audience popularity. The real-time ranking of the seven major music source charts is directly
Not to mention being ranked first, it also remains high on the daily charts.
Unfortunately, even with the huge popularity of the new song, "Playing With Fire" still failed to reach the top of the daily chart... because it also has the even more outrageous "really really" and "TT", both of which are several songs.
With ten AK and PK in hand, it firmly occupied the top two. "Playing with Fire" could only compete with ioi's "Nowood, Nowood, Nooooo" for the third position.
But this performance is really amazing... I can only say that Teddy is really awesome.
However, the performance of the other song "Stay", which is the double hit of this single album, is very average. In terms of various data, it is far inferior to "Playing with Fire".
The day after the song was released, Blackpink also held an album release commemorative interview at a shopping mall auditorium in Samcheong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul.
What's interesting is that when being interviewed by the media and asked "What do you think about competing with subway songs like Twice, EXO-CBX, and "really really", member Jennie expressed her love for "really really" in public.
'I like the style of this song very much. I watched the MV many times after it was released. It's really cool.'
At the request of the reporter at the scene, she also smiled and danced a simple part, making the iconic pistol dance with her hands, tapping and spinning in circles. Her movements were very standard, and it was obvious that she really liked it.
Compared with Jin Ji Ni’s sincerity, the answer of Kim Ji Soo next to her seemed more business-like: “Because many people don’t know us. Rather than competing with our seniors, we hope to let more people know us through this publicity period.”
.”
Boring...
After Blackpink, Kim Taeyeon also released her new song, the autumn single "11:11", on the same day.
It was just a lyrical single without a physical album, without too much warm-up, and without any overwhelming publicity. She simply released the song, and then reposted the link on her Instagram to tell everyone that she had released the song.
Everything seems very bland.
The song was released at 11 o'clock in the evening, and the number of listeners in the first hour was only 40,000. However, after midnight, the number of listeners doubled instantly. After 24 hours of the day, the music source was off the charts, and the cumulative number of listeners was close to one million.
This listening data, in the whole of 2016, only had Park Hyo Shin's "Breath" and Im Changding's "The love I mttted", plus Ak Dong's "Re-Bye", which were super heavy.
Even the subsequent explosion directly pushed this song to the top of the list, knocking out Chi Jingyuan's subway song and Twice's "TT", and stayed at the top of Melon for more than a day.
Although it was soon surpassed by two more songs, the short-term number one has already made many Kim Taeyeon fans very satisfied.
Before the release of Kim Taeyeon's "11:11", the top four songs on the melon chart were "really really", "TT", "Playing with Fire" and "Mumu Mumu Mumu Mu". In addition to the subway song that topped the list,
The other three songs are all songs by new girl groups. The scene of several small girl groups that debuted within a year directly dominating the charts is a microcosm and confirmation of the extremely strong new girl groups throughout 2016.
Kim Taeyeon's career this year has not been very smooth. Except for "Rain" at the beginning of the year and her collaboration with Crush, which achieved good results, her subsequent development has been a bit dull. This is her second solo solo that carries the strong legacy of last year's "I"
The performance of the album "Why" was very unsatisfactory, and the OST of "Bu Bu Jing Xin: Li" released some time ago was also beaten by the OST of "Moonlight Drawn by Clouds" in the same period.
And Girls' Generation has not made a comeback for a whole year. The entire group has made no news except for releasing a commemorative subway song on their debut anniversary, which did not achieve much success and was not paid much attention by many fans. Some time ago, something happened
Huang Meiying's military flag incident made matters worse.
At the same time, the new girl groups are becoming more and more fierce, so many people are saying that Girls' Generation has expired and should disband and give way.
However, the release of the song "11:11" seems to be ordinary, but it turns the tide.
This ballad suddenly and silently appeared in front of everyone. Although Kim Taeyeon did not make a sound, her performance, which pushed "really really" and "TT" off the top of the list, seemed to be extremely calm and gave up to all doubts.
A light and airy voice left in the person’s ears:
"As long as I am here, I will never die."
What's even more interesting is that originally in this year's MMA, that is, the 'TOP10' voting that started a few days before the Melon Music Awards, Kim Taeyeon was always ranked outside the tenth place, wandering back and forth between 11-15.
But one day after "11:11" was released, it took advantage of the popularity of this single to directly reach the eighth position, becoming the only solo singer in the 'TOP10'.
People have to sigh that the senior is really a senior.
The highly anticipated solo album "Why", which received various publicity, was disappointing in the end, while "11:11", which had little publicity, turned out to be so amazing.
Inexplicably, it happened to echo what Chi Jingyuan said casually during the previous live broadcast:
'Three no small singles, but the results are good!'
In addition to these few, BTOB, TARA, and Block B subunits have all released trailers and will release songs one after another within a week to come back.
These are all popular, but there are even more third- and fourth-tier groups that are not popular.
There are also sistar Hyorin and SJ Kyuhyun who are making solo comebacks at the same time.
In addition to the previous IOI, Twice, EXO-CBX, the Kpop music industry in November is full of turmoil, and all companies have made their debut.
I don’t know who can have the last laugh when so many popular groups are crowded together...
At the same time, in November, the various awards ceremonies at the end of the year have also begun to warm up. On November 4th, MMA announced the list of this year's 'Top 10' artists.
MAMA also opened the voting channels for various awards on the 1st, and the entire fan circle instantly became lively. They were competing online to canvass for votes.
However, the channel has just opened, and EXO has won the most votes among all the nominated candidates. Ari's huge strength is fully revealed at this moment. Currently, no group has the ability to compete with them in the "voting" thing.
Compared with previous years, there is another large-scale award ceremony at the end of this year, called the ‘Asian Star Festival’, or AAA for short, formerly known as the ‘Gaon Chart K-POP Awards’, and this year is the first one after the revision.
Different from other awards ceremonies, AAA not only awards awards to singers and idols, but also involves related awards for actors. It has already announced the participation of many popular idol groups and actors, and has done a lot of publicity. It has been quite large and attracted a lot of attention.
attracted a lot of people's attention.
The music industry is extremely lively here, and the other side is not idle either. "Goblin", which has been filming at a fast pace, finally appeared. On November 4, the crew released the filming stills of the actor Ji Kyung-won and the heroine Bae Suzy.
.
The photo released this time is of the scene in the rain that left a deep impression on the two of them when they were filming it. It was also the first scene where the male and female protagonists met in the entire TV series.
In the photo, the rain is pouring down. Ji Jingyuan, who is wearing a long black windbreaker and holding an umbrella, is on the left, while Bae Suzy, who is wearing a green sweatshirt and covering her head with a hat, is on the right. In the rain all over the sky, the two
We met again by chance but fate, and then passed each other by.
This is the first time that the cast of "Goblin" has released stills for promotion, and the photos immediately became a hot topic.
The exquisite stills are impressive, and the long trench coat worn by Chi Jingyuan and the serious and calm expression on his face have attracted the attention of many drama fans and passers-by.
"Why do I feel a strong sense of poignancy and fate from a simple photo?"
"The actor's outfit is too suitable for a wife, right? He's totally handsome."
"Why does Chi Jingyuan look so mature? It's so different from usual, but his clothes and temperament are really to my liking."
"Suzy is really amazing! Even such simple clothes look so beautiful!"
"The fans are really enough. In the photo, Suzy Bae is completely covered by a hat and her chin is exposed. How did you know that she is good-looking?"
Just posting a still photo caused such a big sensation. The popularity on the Internet made the crew of "Goblin" very satisfied. The producer proudly posted a bunch of posts on SNS such as:
'Although the first encounter between Ji Kyung-won and Bae Suzy was only a brief moment, it hinted at the fateful love of 'ghost'...'
"Sometimes heart-warming, sometimes poignant, please look forward to the collaboration between the two who will soon write a fateful love..."
After a similar business operation, the broadcast schedule of "Ghost" was also officially announced.
"Goblin" will take over the hit "The K2" and will premiere on tvN at 8pm on December 2.
This news has also made many fans and passers-by happy and expectant. This TV series, which has attracted a lot of attention and love because of its creators and cast, has not even started airing yet. The lineup will be available in less than a month.
...Speaking of "The K2", of course Chi Jingyuan has been paying attention...even if he doesn't have time to watch it when it is broadcast, he will take time to watch the replay later.
At the worst, I would also look at Yoona sunbaenim’s cut!
After the show was amazing when it first aired, it became somewhat controversial after the ratings reached a peak of 6.6% in the sixth episode. The subsequent performance of the plot and characters was a bit disappointing, and some of the female protagonists were questioned.
The ratings did not increase but fell.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, the popularity accumulated at the beginning of the broadcast gave this drama a good foundation. Even if it fell, it did not fall much, and it has been hovering around 5%... For a cable TV station
It is said to be a very good result.
It is said that Yoona sunbae has posted on SNS that she is about to fulfill the '5% viewership agreement' set before the broadcast, and will be distributing coffee to fans and passers-by in Gangnam, Seoul, on the 11th with actor Ji Chang Wook.
It’s so heartwarming!
Chi Kyung-won was really moved when he saw it...but he didn't know if this was the first time Yoona-senpai had the opportunity to fulfill the 'viewing contract' since he started working in the acting industry.
But when he was browsing the message area under the official SNS of "The K2", he inadvertently saw a very dazzling comment that made him a little unhappy:
"It all depends on Song Yuner."
…………
While the peninsula was bustling with excitement, EXO's nearly week-long concert schedule in Neon finally came to an end. Ji Kyung-won returned to Seoul with the group on the 7th.
"so cold."
In the music room, Chi Jingyuan took a breath of cool air, rubbed his arms, walked to the side and turned on the heater. At the same time, he complained to Zheng Eunji next to him: "Why has the temperature in Seoul dropped so much recently?"
After returning to Seoul, his first trip was to record the two OSTs for "Goblin". After a short rest, he came to the company early the next morning and started recording "stay with me" with Jung Eun-ji, who had been preparing for a long time.
.
After returning from Neon, Chi Jingyuan's biggest feeling was that the peninsula suddenly cooled down. Before leaving, he didn't even feel cold even if he wore a coat, but now he was wearing a long black windbreaker and a turtleneck sweater.
, but my whole body felt chilly.
"Don't wear thicker clothes..."
Zheng Endi, who was wearing a round down jacket, drank hot coffee. After swallowing it, he took a comfortable breath of hot air. He looked at Chi Jingyuan with a smile, looked up and down, and raised his eyebrows: "But he is indeed handsome enough."
"You still need to tell me?"
Glancing at him sideways, Chi Jingyuan was still very confident in his "Ghost" style outfit.
He stood up and swayed on the spot twice, then quickly walked to the computer: "No, it's too cold. Play some music to warm up."
Soon a fiery melody was released from the speakers, and Chi Jingyuan followed the music, swaying his hands and dancing, and sang enthusiastically:
