Chapter 1133 Trivia
Time flies and it is already May. The biggest news on the peninsula recently is that Director Wen successfully won the election and will be officially sworn in on May 10th. This has finally stabilized the peninsula's political arena, which had been in chaos since last year due to the best friend incident.
Last year, there were various turbulent events, and many large-scale rallies and marches in Seoul and the entire peninsula caused panic among the people. People were paying attention to political affairs, and some entertainment-related news received much less attention. Various data dropped significantly, and the entertainment industry was almost shut down during the most turbulent period.
The reason why "Goblin" at the end of the year broke out with amazing popularity and was sought after by the majority of the people was not only because of its excellent production, but also partly because of the dividends of current affairs... The people have been in turmoil for a long time and need such a warm and healing TV series to comfort their emotions.
Now that current affairs are stable, the entertainment industry is naturally re-emerging.
The music industry has been getting lively since late April. After a boring period dominated by second- and third-tier groups such as Teen Top, Laboum, and EXID, IU Lee Ji-eun's return has set the music industry on fire and she has become the protagonist recently.
No wonder Kim Taeyeon has been so anxious these days and even has acne on her face... Lee Ji-eun's comeback with a regular album this time was really good, and the sound source was incredibly popular.
The main reason is that the configuration and promotion of this album are really impressive. The preheating started a month ago, with two pre-release songs alone, and several fan meetings and listening sessions were held.
The title song was a collaboration with top idol G-Dragon, and even the lead actor in the MV of the included song was Kim Soo Hyun.
With this configuration, not to mention Kim Taeyeon, even Ji Kyung-won and EXO pale in comparison.
Fortunately, IU's sales are still a shortcoming. Even though she has made such a big splash and has such good sound sources, the sales of less than 50,000 in the first week are still not even half of Kim Taeyeon's regular sales a month ago. This can make her feel a little relieved and she can barely fall asleep.
Under the overshadowing of IU Lee Ji-eun, singers and groups of the same period have lost their popularity, and their songs have received mediocre responses. In comparison, PSY, who has not announced a comeback in the near future, and Twice have received high attention.
Among all this, Chi Jingyuan also noticed a piece of news that few people paid attention to: three years after red velvlet debuted, he finally had an official fan name "ReVeluv", and Red Baby's fans finally had a name to call themselves.
In a sense, the time it takes for the fandom to obtain official names can actually reflect how much SM values the group. Although compared to Girls' Generation, which received fan names in just one year, Red Velvet's nearly three years seems a bit miserable.
But when compared with FX, one can immediately feel a sense of superiority. FX debuted for seven years, and it was only when the group was on the verge of disbanding that the fans finally got their own official fan name. It is really sad.
In addition, the hottest topic recently is "Produce 101 Season "
Last year's "101 Season " selected the popular IOI under extremely high popularity. Although they were suppressed by Twice for almost a whole year, IOI's own popularity and status as a national girl group cannot be denied... and the audition itself lasts for one or two months, and the temporary girl group formed by selecting female trainees from various small companies can compete with Twice, which is enough to show the power of this program and this model.
The second season started again this year, but this time it is not about selecting a girl group, but a boy group.
Because their target audience is girls, boy bands inherently have more popularity, more fans willing to vote for the band and spend money, and more revenue. Following the success of the first season last year, the second season this year has attracted even more attention.
The program has been very popular since its premiere on April 4, and has gained a large number of respectable viewers and fans. The theme song "Me, Me" is also very popular. Although they have not yet officially formed a group, the momentum and popularity of these male trainees are no less than any first-line group.
Last year we created a national girl group, so it is not impossible to create a national boy group this year.
In comparison, EXO, the top boy band in the music industry today, seems to be relatively unknown.
From the beginning of the year to now, the relationship between two members, Kim Jong-in and Park Chanyeol, has been exposed continuously, which has seriously affected the image of the group.
In April, Wen Taiyi's recording exposed the scandals of members such as Kim Jong-in, and also involved the team's top member Ji Kyung-won, causing the entire fan group to be somewhat panicked. In addition, the long-term absence from Peninsula led to a large number of fans leaving the group.
Many of the fans who followed "101 Season " actually came over from Ai Li.
Although EXO has noticed the situation, the plan for this year has already been decided and cannot be changed. Moreover, they just went through a scandal and have just managed to clarify it and the heat has died down a little, so now they are trying to keep a low profile.
Now, apart from the third tour encore concert in May, there has been no news about EXO at all. Compared with the popularity of "101 Season ", it is hard to figure out who is the TOP for a while.

"……What are you doing?"
Listening to the soft voice coming from the receiver, Chi Jingyuan, who was standing in front of the mirror trying on clothes with his head tilted, first exchanged a few words with the designer, expressed his own opinions, and then began to talk to the phone casually: "I'm trying on clothes at GUCCI. It will be Baeksang in two days~"
"Pick a suit! You look really good in suits! Dark colors look good, and light... beige ones are good too!"
Zhou Ziyu on the other end of the phone perked up when she heard this, and began to give her own suggestions with great interest: "Double-breasted... Well, let me think about it, let's go with single-breasted. My father said that double-breasted suits are uncomfortable to wear, and I also think they are too formal and make you look old. I think you will look better in a casual style, with the trouser legs a little looser. Hmm... let me think about how to match the lining..."
Chi Jingyuan didn't expect that Zhou Ziyu would actually start to give advice after he said it casually. She was chattering and had quite a lot of ideas. He couldn't help but laugh and interrupted her unhappily: "Who asked you to choose for me? How can you choose a suit for someone like this? Do you have a better eye than a professional designer?"
"What's wrong with me? I've picked out suits for my dad! They all say I have good taste."
Zhou Ziyu was very dissatisfied with Chi Jingyuan's tone. She felt that she was being looked down upon. She said angrily and as a matter of course: "I... Although I am not as professional as the designer, I definitely know you better than him!... How can you look down on others? Too much!"
Zhou Ziyu was full of enthusiasm but met Chi Jingyuan, a nasty guy who poured cold water on her. She wanted to bite Chi Jingyuan with her fangs from a distance.
“…Let’s take this one.”
Unfortunately, while she was complaining unhappily for a long time, Chi Jingyuan had already chosen the clothes, and the sound of him and the designer talking could be faintly heard over the phone.
"It's already been chosen, so you don't need to give any advice."
Chi Jingyuan's voice was rude, and Zhou Ziyu was furious at this attitude of disregard. But then Chi Jingyuan added in amazement: "But you know what... you and the designer have similar ideas. It's a casual style, and it's also single-breasted and dark in color."
Hearing this, Zhou Ziyu's heart moved, and she suddenly became happy again, but she still suppressed her inner joy and said in a pretentious manner: "Humph, I told you that I know you, but you still don't believe me... I won't give you a choice next time."
Tsundere and all that... Chi Jingyuan feels that Zhou Ziyu is not as cute as before. She is still the obedient and well-behaved type who is easier to bully.
"correct."
Zhou Ziyu would never get really angry with Chi Jingyuan. Her dissatisfaction lasted less than five seconds before it completely disappeared. Then she spoke on the phone with great energy: "Recently, the members have been discussing the Baeksang Awards in private. I heard from the sisters that you have a good chance of winning the grand prize this time! Best Actor!"
From the way she spoke, it seemed like she was going to win a prize, and she seemed even more excited than Chi Jingyuan himself.
"Nine people combined can't make up an actor. It has nothing to do with you. Why do you care about these things every day~"
Chi Jingyuan habitually said something, standing in front of the closet, choosing a tie and lining, and said reservedly: "Whether I win the award or not...it's okay, it doesn't matter."
cut~
As soon as Zhou Ziyu heard it, she knew that this guy was showing off again. He clearly wanted to do something but he was pretending in front of her, as childish as a kid.
Just when he was about to say something, Chi Jingyuan heard Chi Jingyuan casually ask, "How is your album preparation going?"
There will be more later
