[Korean entertainment] I want to win

Half a year passed in a flash.

Not long after that meeting with Mu Yan, Kim Hee-chul enlisted in the army.

Lee Jae Hyun released his first solo mini-album in early 2011.

Mu Yan never contacted them again, she has been working hard in school, singing and dancing.

It is now June 2011.

The hot topic recently is the upcoming talent show "Kpopstar" on SBS.

There were already several registration forms on Mu Yan's desk, some of which were given by Teacher Zhao En, Xiuyan, and classmates. Even her mother, who didn't care much about entertainment news, got one for her.

"The program selects a new generation of singers who can bring the trend of Korean pop music K-POP to the world."

"Excellent contestants will have the opportunity to sign with top Korean entertainment companies and debut as entertainers. The champion will receive 3 million won and a car."

That's what it says on the leaflet.

The opportunity was perfect, and it seemed that there was no need to think about it. Mu Yan grabbed a pen and filled out the registration form seriously.

The Korean domestic audition will be held in Jamsil Indoor Gymnasium in Seoul in August.

Six people from Gwangju Victory Academy signed up, and Mu Yan and five others went to Seoul to participate in the audition.

The scene was dark and dense, with many, many people, many, many contestants, boys and girls of all ages and nationalities.

This time the judges are from the three major entertainment companies, namely Yang Hyun-suk from YG, Park Jin-young from JYP and BoA from SM.

These three people have a pivotal position in the Korean entertainment industry, which is probably one of the reasons why everyone is rushing to this draft.

Mu Yan's song was chosen by Xiuyan for her, "IBelieve".

At first, Mu Yan felt that this song was too thin, maybe it would be easier to pass by choosing a song that was more difficult and easier to show skills.

But Xiuyan said that showing your personality is a later matter. The audition only needs to have a good voice, a little emotion, and no major mistakes. And because of the large number of contestants, the simpler and clearer it is, the easier it is to be judged.

Sure enough, Mu Yan got the PASS card after singing a short verse, and the judges also praised her for her beautiful voice.

Only two of the six people who went with them passed.

Mu Yan felt that it was not as easy as Xiuyan said.It's just that she didn't know that what Xiuyan said was only referring to her strength, so she was lazy to care about other people except her sister.

After waiting for nearly two months, they entered the official competition process.

The audition began, and this time Xiuyan accompanied her to the SBS TV station.

The night before departure, Mu Yan's mother went to the market to buy ingredients and cooked a table of delicious food for them.

"Wow, so rich." Sitting in front of the table, Mu Yan shook her head happily: "Mom is so kind."

Mu Yan's mother felt a little sorry, this was a very important opportunity for Mu Yan, but her employer had an important dinner party tomorrow, so she couldn't ask for leave.

She put vegetables into Muyan's bowl: "Tomorrow... only Xiuyan will be with you, so it's okay?"

"Yeah." Mu Yan shook her head, smiling very cutely: "It doesn't matter."

Soo Yeon said, "Mom can just wait until the finals."

Mu Yan gave her an Alexander look.

Mu Yan's mother laughed: "We Mu Yan just need to work hard, no matter which step we take, I feel very proud of my mother."

"That won't work." Xiuyan said, "Since participating in the competition, you should have ambitions. To win the championship depends not only on strength, but also on belief." She glanced at her sister: "Sister, you never thought of becoming No.1, right?"

"..." Mu Yan glanced at her guilty, indeed, she never thought that she could become the champion.

I don't know how many players have received professional training, and some even worked as trainees in three companies.

As for her, she only stayed at Victory Academy for less than a year, and she was learning to dance almost all of her time at school.Although singing is practiced every day, compared to dancing, the practice time is really not long, and there must be many shortcomings.

It seems that there are still many deficiencies, so how can I become a champion?

"Participating in the competition with the mood of just wanting to try is different from the result of participating in the competition with the mood of wanting to become a champion." Xiuyan looked at Muyan: "In my opinion, my sister is okay."

My sister is fine in my opinion.

Mu Yan's desire to win was aroused by Xiuyan's words.

However, those desires for winning and losing were buried immediately after listening to Li Xiayi.

What a great sound, what a style.Mu Yan kept sighing in her heart.

The child was even as old as she was.

You see, in such a game of Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger, how can they have the confidence to win against them.

Just be yourself, Li Muyan.

She gripped the microphone tightly, took a deep breath, and walked towards the center of the stage.

The girl standing on the stage is wearing a simple white shirt and jeans.

Her long hair was tied into a ponytail, revealing a smooth forehead.

She bowed, and when she introduced herself, she curled the corners of her mouth, revealing a pair of lovely dimples.

There is no dazzling beauty, but her smile makes people like it at first sight.

The spotlights in the recording studio were turned on wide open, making it hard for people to keep their eyes open.

There are cameras all around the stage.

Mu Yan raised her head and looked at the three judges facing her. Her palms were sweating a lot and her voice was trembling: "Hi everyone, I'm Li Muyan, a 16-year-old from Gwangju."

"Are you nervous?" Bao'er looked at her kindly: "Relax and sing."

The song Mu Yan will sing this time is "moonlightshadow", which is still the song chosen by Xiuyan.

The prelude sounded, and Mu Yan slowly calmed down.

Perhaps only music in this world can make her relax the most.

The song "moonlightshadow" is said to commemorate John Lennon, the lead singer of the Beatles, who was shot dead.

Countless people have sung it, and the three judges are no strangers to it.

Mu Yan's voice was sweet, but her singing was a little hoarse.And this just right hoarseness also made her voice more special and flavorful.

When she sang this song, she raised her pitch and slowed down her voice, giving her an ethereal feeling immediately.

Mu Yan has a good voice.

At this moment, her voice is like a sea tide, coming from all directions, engulfing people in it, making people addicted.

After the song was sung, there was a few seconds of silence in the recording studio.

"Wow." Bao'er was the first to sigh, "I seem to really see the moon shadow."

"It's really good to grasp the feelings." Park Zhenying also came back to her senses: "That kind of helpless sadness makes me feel uncomfortable."

Yang Xianshuo picked up the microphone with no expression on his face: "It seems that a dance is prepared, please show it?"

Mu Yan blushed a little: "Yes."

The background music is "Dosomething" by Britney Spears.

After a short dance, she was called to stop.

Bao'er laughed and said, "Before singing, I was very nervous, but I couldn't tell when I sang, but when I danced, I seemed to be very nervous again, and my movements became very stiff."

Park Zhenying also laughed: "The movements are actually very standard and in place, but it feels more casual. It seems that I am not very confident in my dancing."

Mu Yan nodded silently in her heart, she really didn't have much confidence in her dancing skills.

If she was usually in the practice room, her dancing would definitely be much better, but she was too nervous to show something she was not very good at on stage.

Yang Xianshuo continued to comment: "Generally it is very good, but I think there are still many problems in the singing. For example, there are a few parts where the breathing connection is a bit abrupt, and the breathing is not handled very well."

Park Zhenying nodded: "There are indeed some bad habits, for example, the ending seems to always fall habitually."

"It seems that you seldom sing with a microphone. If you pull the microphone away when you are engaged, there will be no sound." Bao'er said with a smile: "But no matter what they say, I will give you a pass."

After she finished speaking, she pressed the pass light.

"Thank you." Mu Yan bowed gratefully.

"Qualified." Park Zhenying also pressed the light: "You moved me."

Yang Xianshuo pressed the qualified light: "You have a good grasp of folk songs at a young age, but if it is a POP song, I really want to see what kind of feeling you can bring. I am looking forward to your next stage."

"Yes, thank you." Mu Yan bowed again and walked off the stage.

Immediately, a staff member stepped forward and handed her stickers with the faces of the three judges.

Xiuyan was waiting outside the door, her face somewhat similar to Mu Yan's looked very calm: "Sister, how many passes have you got?"

Mu Yan opened her arms and showed her three stickers on her right shoulder side by side.

Xiuyan's perennial iceberg face rarely showed a bright smile: "Wow, Mom must be very happy if she finds out."

"Yeah." Mu Yan nodded: "But the judges also said a lot of things that need to be corrected."

Xiuyan also nodded: "Then change it."

"Hmm."

The conversation between the two sisters sounds very ordinary, but looking at their two shining eyes, one can tell that the two of them are really happy and happy now.
