[Entertainment circle] What's the use of laying fat eggs

"The next song is very special, it is Mingche's posthumous work."

This is the group live broadcast of BTS's new album. Kim Namjoon, who was introducing the songs included, paused for a moment, and said the last two words with great difficulty, letting himself be completely swallowed up by the sourness that almost made it impossible to breathe.

He tried his best to raise the corners of his lips, and said in a rather relaxed tone.

As if to ease the atmosphere, Min Yoongi nodded and said with a smile, "It's a gift from Mingche from our family."

It was indeed a gift, that's right, the more than [-] songs that Jiang Mingche stored in the USB flash drive were originally planned to be uploaded to Dahei as a producer after graduation.

He has made up his mind to continue the music career he loves, even if he can only hide behind the scenes and be an unknown musician whose name will not be mentioned too much.

It's a pity that fate was too cruel to him after all. This gift, which had been prepared for more than three years, was not given to his beloved members personally, but in the name of an extremely ironic relic. handed over to them.

He doesn't have the habit of keeping a diary. The members don't know how he has been in the United States for the past few years. They can only get a glimpse of it through the words of some classmates and teachers around him.

After Jiang Mingche encountered that incident, his personality has changed a lot under the continuous blow of reality, he seems to be immersed in his own world all the time, he is no longer innocent and brilliant, he rarely smiles, his eyes always seem to be blindfolded A layer of unseen sadness, silent and gloomy.

He never took the initiative to establish social relationships with others, so in the three years of college, there was no one who could barely be called a friend, and his relationship with his classmates was even more mediocre, not even a nodding acquaintance.

He is always alone, going to class alone, going home alone, sitting in front of the computer alone, as if nothing can shake his mind, and only when he returns home will he be comforted by the night. , in the form of music, to express all my moods.

"If this song is made into a lyrical song, it will definitely suit the vocals of the vocal brothers."

"Yongqi hyung's voice will be great if he sings this song."

"It would be great if I could hear Brother Zhiyu singing this song."

These are all specially marked by him on the memo of the file folder. This song is suitable for who and who, and that song will match the voice of so and so. Every item is clearly written, and it is full of things that he did not have time Send out your thoughts.It's a pity that those words never had a chance to be heard from him after all.

After receiving these heavy hearts, all the members can do is to hide this precious heart deeply in their hearts, and then perform these songs in a more perfect state, so as not to spoil his sincerity.

Whether or not to include his posthumous work in the album, the company has actually debated for a long time.

Jiang Mingche suddenly announced his retirement three years ago. Strictly speaking, he is indeed no longer a member of BTS.

When he announced his retirement from the team, many fans were disappointed and turned away, and there were not a few who called him a coward and a betrayer.

What's more, the fact that Jiang Mingche was attacked and died is almost known to everyone. Even those who are not interested in bulletproof, and even those who have picked up the keyboard and scolded each other, have received a lot of psychological shock after learning the news , I have to feel sad and unwilling for this withered, only 23-year-old soul.

Even if it wasn't sincere, I didn't give up this opportunity. I posted a few seemingly sad comments on the Internet, remembering the soul that was once hurt to pieces, and now has to return to the public eye again in this state.

In such a situation, one has to consider the consequences that may be faced after using the work.

Jiang Mingche used to be a member of BTS, once his works are included in the follow-up album, then some people will take this opportunity to maliciously diverge, saying that they are taking advantage of the popularity of the dead, blatantly eating human blood steamed buns because of their relationship, and so on , based on their understanding of the group of keyboard warriors on the Internet, there will definitely be no shortage at that time.

"I know, but wouldn't it be a pity to let his hard work go to waste for such a reason?"

"Haven't we experienced too little gossip? Being labeled with various hats and continuing to live and work has no effect on us. If we can use a few words as the price, let the whole world If you can hear his music, then I am willing."

These are the original words of the members. In the end, PD Bang Si Hyuk himself struck the board and decided to include Kang Myung Cheol’s posthumous work in BTS’s special album, not only as a special gift, but also as a I miss this friend who has passed away.

"This is a work that Mingche completed when he was studying at the Berklee Conservatory of Music. The final draft date is June 16, 6, the anniversary of the third anniversary of our debut. In his memo, he said that this is a work that is destined not to be sent out. one's gift."

Jin Nanjun paused, smiled and waved his hands: "Hey, Mingche, if you can hear it over there, we have already received it. Thank you for your gift. My brothers like it very much."

Tian Jiuguo quietly blushed. He lowered his head and quickly wiped away the crystals from the corners of his eyes, trying to adjust his emotions. When he raised his head again, what was exposed in the camera was a flawless smile again.

"We haven't made any revisions to this song. All the work, including the lyrics, composition and arrangement, was done by Mingche alone. What is the original song in his USB flash drive is what it is presented to everyone's ears. This is a somewhat special gift, and I hope that everyone who hears this song will like it, and don’t have to think too much, just enjoy the music.”

When recording this song, the members were not as relaxed as they are now. They fell into emotional breakdowns several times and choked up several times, which caused the recording to be interrupted several times. It took three full days of stumbling to complete the recording.

The members didn't take the initiative to mention these behind the scenes, they don't want to let this emotion be ruined and polluted under the malicious slander of some caring people, and they don't want to be labeled as a hot seller, and they simply pretend to be relaxed They didn't mention it either, but they still felt heavy in their hearts, as if their whole hearts were immersed in the sea water of the glacier. The bone-chilling cold and despair made it impossible for them to calm down.

Seemingly noticing the mood swings of the members, the staff quickly gestured to the captain, who took a deep breath indiscriminately, raised the corners of his lips in an effort to ease the atmosphere, and then transitioned to In the next part of the live broadcast, the staff also took advantage of the opportunity to play the behind-the-scenes footage of the album's inner cover.

"The live broadcast is still going on, everyone sort out your emotions a little bit, don't be too sad, Mingche will be sad when he sees it."

Pu Zhixuan sighed lightly: "Brother, when you say that, I want to cry even more."

"Heaven is so far away, can he hear it?" Jin Yunheng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised his head and asked.

Seeing that everyone couldn't help but fall silent, Jin Shuozhen stretched out his hand and patted the other person's shoulder, comforting him softly: "If you can't hear it, can we just speak louder?"

Zheng Haoxi nodded, he raised the corners of his lips, trying to break the gloomy atmosphere, and said with a smile: "Yes, it will be our concert soon, when we sing this song, let's speak louder and say That kid might have heard it."

Even though he knew that that person had left early, and it might be impossible to know what happened now, this sentence still gave the grieving members great psychological comfort.It just so happened that the extras broadcast at this time were almost coming to an end, and the members could only adjust their emotions as soon as possible to prepare for the next live broadcast.

At the same time, on the Korean Internet forum, the clip of BTS mentioning the deceased in the live broadcast quickly appeared on related hot searches.

——"When I saw the news, I thought it was April Fool's Day. Just as I was about to scold the damned media for making it up, I saw the news that you took the plane to attend the funeral. I had to believe it. Everything is real, you really left us completely. Maybe God likes you too much, so he let you leave this world early, but I still hope you know that I really miss you very much. "

——"He is only 23 years old! How can he leave early at such a young age? What is that person who keeps saying that he likes bulletproof, and keeps saying that he wants to punish betrayers?! He can't even live a good life as an ordinary amateur Have you lost all your rights? Xiba bastard, it really makes people so angry that they want to dig up their ancestors’ graves and then spit on your tombstone! Give me back my clarity!”

——"I'm not a fan, and I haven't scolded them on the Internet. When I watched the news, I sighed for a long time. I looked up their variety shows and performance videos before, and I always felt that Jiang Mingche was a very cute and gentle child. How could that be? What happened to such a thing? The great youth was completely ruined because of a stage accident, the staff of the TV station, and the murderer at the end should all apologize!"

How can a 23-year-old life wither unexpectedly without making people sigh.The fans who once loved him sincerely, couldn't help watching this scene in the live broadcast several times, and finally couldn't resist the complete collapse of emotions and cried out.

——"I never thought that I would hear the name 'Mingche' in BTS again, on such an occasion. I also never thought that the last cooperation would be in such a way, 'posthumous work' Those two words are really murderous."

——"I was forced to leave the team at the beginning, right? He was injured like that, and he was slandered by so many groups of bitch poisonous malicious attacks. He was worried that it would affect the team. It must have been very difficult for him to make this decision. See the handwriting When I wrote the letter, I actually resented him. Why did I leave? Is the promise that the eight members of BTS will live and die together mean nothing? Why do you want to be a betrayer? However, after watching the video of his performance at that time several times, I realized I found out that his condition at that time was very, very bad. If he continued reluctantly, the damage would accumulate more and more, and the consequences would only be more dire. If returning to an ordinary life would make him happy, what's wrong with that? "

——"After retiring from the team, I still want to study music and write songs for my ex-teammates. Mingche can really be said to be the best ex-teammate kkkk It would be great if there was no such accident. Now he has graduated from a famous school. Even if you can no longer be on the stage, you can rejoin Dahei Company and realize your dreams with them as a behind-the-scenes producer. Unfortunately, being ruined by a lunatic with a brain that deserves to be hacked to pieces, why does God treat He is so cruel..."

The live broadcast has come to an end, and related topics are still high on the major portals, full of nostalgic and blessing posts.

On the third day after returning to the live broadcast, the new tour of BTS officially kicked off at the main arena in Jamsil, Seoul, and performed a number of new album songs live. The penultimate song is this very special song, written by the late former Member Kang Myung Cheol's last work - "Farewell".

"Farewell means farewell, but unfortunately, this wish is destined to never come true."

Jin Nanjun smiled wryly: "This song was written by a kid who loves the music stage very much. There may be some ARMYs who entered the pit relatively late and are unfamiliar with him. Let me introduce him here. He has always been a member of BTS. It is the eighth member whose position will always be vacant. He has left, and there is no way to stand on this stage again. All we can do is sing his song in the Jamsil main arena. I hope that child can be in heaven I can hear you, thank you all."

The lights on the stage dimmed suddenly, but a video of Jiang Mingche before his death suddenly appeared on the screen behind the members. In the video, the young man had a bright and gentle smile. In the blank space, accompanied by the uncontrollable sobs of the fans, a clear and gentle singing sounded slowly.

Accompanied by the gentle piano melody, the members held back their crying voices and joined in. When the last note fell, they suddenly raised their heads and looked at the brightest star among the stars in the night sky, wanting to make the last These words were passed on to the man who left early:

"Ming Che!!! Be happy!!!"
