debut [entertainment]

It's still the Staples Center, it's still the same MASKCROW, but the stage is not the same as before.

In a huge arena that can accommodate [-] spectators, the audience is silent, and the entire venue is completely silent. This is obviously not a normal situation in a concert.

But it actually happened.

At this moment, the entire stage was covered with a black cloth.There are no gorgeous lights, no rich visual effects, and even the big screen is black, as if the audience is not attending a concert, but a funeral.

In the center of the stage, MASKCROW stands alone, holding a black-painted acoustic guitar in front of him.

She didn't wear heavy makeup. She wore a black T-shirt and jeans, so plain that she didn't look like a singer about to hold a concert.

"Good afternoon." MASKCROW simply greeted the microphone.

This time, she didn't play the fancy appearance of a concert. When the audience came in one after another, she was already standing on the stage and testing the sound of the microphone.

At first, the audience exclaimed when they saw her appearing on the stage ahead of time, but when they noticed the dark stage design and the atmosphere of the scene, they silently silenced their voices as if they were afraid of disturbing something.

Just such a simple greeting, followed by MASKCROW began to sing.

The entire "Rainbow" album has a total of 13 songs, she sang from the first to the last, and each song is accompanied by a guitar in front of her, as if telling a long story Her moving voice spoke eloquently.

It was so clean.

After removing those rich and explosive drums and instruments, the only thing that can attract people is her good voice.

But it is such a clean and thorough singing that everyone can't help but immerse themselves in it, completely forgetting that what they are attending is a concert, as if they are in any small road next to their home, or when jogging in the morning, or in the evening When digesting, it is like a soothing breeze blowing into the heart.

Gradually, people stopped staring at her in the center of the stage, but slowly closed their eyes, recalling their past in a trance.

Every song, every line of lyrics seems to be able to arouse endless reveries and memories, bringing them back to the moments when they regretted, regretted, loved, and worked hard, and deeply touched everyone's hearts.

Unknowingly, many people moistened their eye sockets under the clean singing, tears quickly wet their faces, and then leaked out through the fingers covering their eyes.

Thirteen songs were fleeting, and MASKCROW's singing stopped abruptly.

People were still immersed in their emotions and didn't react for a long time. When they recovered, the MASKCROW in the center of the stage had disappeared.

Instead, the screen was turned on for the first time in the entire concert, and people of different skin colors and races walked on the stage. Among them were Kim Jong-kook and Liz.

【WEARE ALL SAME.】

【DESTROYRACISM.】

【BELIKEAPANDA. HE'SBLACK，HE'SWHITE，HE'SASIAN.】

[BLACK LIVE SMATTER, ASIAN LIVE SEITHER.]

【STANDUPTORACISM.】

These words appear on the screen and are also written on the exposed skin of the people in the center of the stage.

MASKCROW put on the mask again. The mask on his face was covered with various skin colors from white to yellow, and then gradually from yellow to black.

She merged with these people on the stage, standing between Kim Jong Kook and Liz.

【DON'T JUDGE ME BY MY COLOR.】

On her black T-shirt, this line of words was sprayed with bright white spray paint.

People should be equal regardless of their status, occupation, skin color, race, gender, gender, or any label that can divide people into different categories.

Singing can be transmitted, emotions can be shared, breathing the same air, living together under the same sky, but discrimination comes from all directions, which is unreasonable and even more unfair.

Kim Yoo-hee wants to use such a global simultaneous live broadcast charity concert, and also wants to use her singing voice and influence to tell everyone such a very simple sentence.

It looks very simple, but it is very difficult to actually do it.

But this discrimination will never change, let alone go away, without starting to work on it.

Black people have gone through many years of bloody struggles and protests to get to where they are today, but today, their skin color is still discriminated against.

What about the yellow race?What about Asians in America?

There was always the problem of the group voice being too small.

Kim Yoo-hee used to think that maybe he only needed to sing a good song, and he didn't need to pay attention to the rest.

But now with tens of millions of fans around the world, her influence is far more than just a simple singer.

What happened at Christmas this time made her realize that if she didn't change her concept, she wouldn't even be able to protect her own family.

Perhaps her original intention of holding this charity concert was not as selfless and magnificent as that of great people, and it can even be said that she simply wanted to speak out for her family.

But at least it's a good start.

Exercising the right to silence is a good thing to maintain fairness and justice in the Miranda Law, but in the context of racial discrimination, refusing to remain silent is the most correct thing Kim Yoo-hee has done.

She not only wants to speak out, but she also wants to speak out herself, and the voices of all Asians, from every corner, so that people can hear and see.

Because from this moment on, they are no longer the forgotten group, and they will no longer keep silent and swallow their anger in the face of ridicule.

This vociferation may seem radical, but history was changed by such a group of radical people.

What Kim Yoo-hee did was to start this "radical" first wooden warehouse.

This is a global webcast live charity concert, and MASKCROW is at the forefront of public opinion, and the attention it has received can be imagined.

As soon as the concert was over, the comments on the Internet exploded.

Words such as "Asian", "yellow race", and "racial discrimination" immediately appeared on the hot searches on social media in various countries, and continued to spread and boil.

Especially across America.

Accompanied by several influential Hollywood stars, basketball and other sports players and other Asian public figures who spoke out one after another, this momentum quickly ignited into reality, pushing demonstrations such as parades to a climax.

The first ones who couldn't resist this momentum were the three paparazzi who played the role of mocking Kim Jong Kook on Christmas Day.

They secretly photograph celebrities all day long, never thinking that they will be chased and intercepted by their peers one day.

And this kind of feeling of having no privacy and being slapped in the face by big guns all the time is really too bad.

At first the two white paparazzi yelled "You are invading my personal privacy, FUCKOFF!" Later, the media that worked with them all drew a line with them. He came out with a tired and vicissitudes face to apologize to the MASKCROW who was chasing and blocking him.

This time the apology was more sincere.

Jin Youxi turned off the news that was still playing the apology video of the two paparazzi, rubbed his temples tiredly, and fell into the sofa.

The Los Angeles police also began to relax under this momentum. Although the case has been filed and cannot be withdrawn, judging from the information disclosed, it will not have a great impact on her.

After all, even if there is an impact on the tour, it is good to minimize the impact.

Just when she was thinking "some progress has finally been made", the phone buzzed again.

Jin Youxi turned the phone over and glanced at it.

With just one glance, she sat up straight.

What do you mean, South Korea's SBS TV announced that it has agreed with Kim Jong Kook and Song Ji Xiao that they will quit "RUNNINGMAN"?

Is dad quitting "RUNNINGMAN"?Why hasn't she heard him say it?

Jin Youxi called him directly, but the line on the other end was busy and unable to get through, so Jin Youxi had to call his mother Liz instead.

Mom's phone seemed to be waiting for her to call, and she answered it all at once: "Youxi, aren't you busy with the concert?"

"No, Mom, what's the news about Dad?" Jin Youxi asked bluntly.

There was a rustling voice from the other end of the phone, as if my mother got up and changed the room, and then she lowered her voice and replied, "Let me tell you, your dad only found out that he quit "Runningman" through the news." The news about the car is now also calling to ask what's going on."

Jin Youxi frowned almost immediately: "Why didn't you even notify me, and let people know it directly from the news? Is it fake news?"

Mom was silent for a while, as if covering the microphone and going out to see the reaction of dad on the other side: "It shouldn't be fake news, your dad frowned so much that he could kill flies."

"..." Jin Youxi realized that his expression at the moment might be exactly the same as that of his father, and he couldn't help standing up, "How could it be?"

Yes, how could it be?

Kim Yoo-hee knew that the ratings of "RUNNINGMAN" had dropped one after another, and the audience felt tired of the show because of its freshness, but what he never expected was that the program team of "RUNNINGMAN" would let Kim Jong-kook and Song Ji-xiao get off.

Not even an advance notice, which is very disrespectful.

This is completely the opposite attitude from when she was invited to participate in the show.

Besides, when South Korea already knew that Kim Jong-kook was her father, how could she make such a decision?

The mother and father on the other end of the phone seemed to have said a few words, and then the mother picked up the phone again, said "Youxi, don't worry, your father will take care of it" and ended the call.

Jin Youxi looked at the phone in a daze, bit his lower lip, and immediately sent a message to Quan Zhilong.

In South Korea, her network is not as good as his, and there will be delays in receiving messages, and it is not convenient to find out the behind-the-scenes news.

After all, it involves her family, and she still can't help but want to know more, even if she is still busy with the concert.

Quan Zhilong didn't reply her immediately.

This is also normal, he may be busy and didn't look at his phone, after all, recently is the last five-person comeback period of BIGBANG.

But Jin Youxi still couldn't help but lowered his eyes, took a deep breath, and flipped through the address book for other people.

A quarter of an hour ago, Quan Zhilong asked the makeup artist to touch up his makeup while swiping his phone in the waiting room of SBS TV station.

As if he had brushed something, he immediately frowned, put the phone away, and got up from the seat.

"I'm going to the toilet."

"Hey, Zhilong, I'm going to be on stage soon..."

Quan Zhilong waved his hand, "Don't worry, I'll be right back."

What he just found was the news that Kim Jong-kook and Song Zhixiao got off from "Runningman". After going out and making a few phone calls, when he was about to call that girl Youxi, Pei Pei hurried out to look for him.

"Zhilong, hurry up and touch up your makeup, we're going up."

Before there was any further delay, Quan Zhilong quickly left the phone to his manager for safekeeping, and after hastily putting on his makeup, he walked to the side of the stage with the members.

This recording was done several times, and we had to interact with the fans in the middle. After going back and forth like this, by the time they finished recording, an hour had passed.

Only then did Quan Zhilong get his phone back from his manager, and saw the text message that Jin Youxi had sent him.

He immediately made a video call back.

It seems that Jin Youxi has been using the mobile phone, and he quickly picked it up.

"Oppa."

Quan Zhilong noticed that she was a little depressed, looked at the group members around him, and explained in a low voice, "Just now I was recording a popular song, and I didn't have my phone with me."

Jin Youxi nodded to express her understanding, "I understand."

Quan Zhilong sighed inwardly, the two of them have gotten close recently, which made him a little uncertain what she was thinking, so he could only speak straight to the point:

"I inquired about your father. For the sake of ratings and program restructuring, "RUNNINGMAN" wanted to introduce Senior Jiang Hudong, and together with Senior Liu Zaishi, relive the effect of the two national MCs being in the same frame. The positioning and personality are a bit blurred..."

Quan Zhilong's words were very long and detailed, and Jin Youxi gradually understood the whole picture of what happened.

After all, relying on different guests to increase the ratings is not the way for "RUNNINGMAN" to survive, and the program "RUNNINGMAN" has finally reached a bottleneck stage.

If you want to make a breakthrough and don't want to give up the show, you have to make some large-scale changes, or change the show's main PD to completely change the style, or change the regular members of the show.

And this time, SBS chose to change to regular members.

There are two regular members, there have been fewer and fewer shots recently, and their positions have become more and more blurred. One is Song Zhixiao and the other is Kim Jong Kook.

Song Zhixiao is because she was a "Monday couple" with regular member Gary in the show before, and she was very good before, but when Gary left "RUNNINGMAN", she was the only one left, and the couple positioning could not continue, and she couldn't find it. With the new character set, and besides the golden hand, she is not a very funny comedian herself, so she was listed as one of the eliminated candidates by the program team.

And Kim Jong-kook’s personality in the show is originally a "capable person", with great strength and super physical fitness, but recently he is getting older, and his body hurts constantly, and he seldom feels the same as before. The "capable person" is no longer So "capable person" is also the reason why "RUNNINGMAN" decided to introduce new members to replace them.

Jiang Hudong is a similar character design. Moreover, Jiang Hudong is a national MC. He can be funny and host. The two MCs with Liu Zaishi can also collide with different sparks, making people recall the glory of "XMAN". If Jiang Hudong can be introduced , then Song Ji Xiao and Kim Jong Kook are naturally no longer needed members of the show.

Weeding out two regular members and using the extra budget to introduce a national MC Jiang Hudong, this calculation is not bad.

However, what should never happen is that they unilaterally announced the news without even notifying them, which is really a great disrespect to the "former" members.

Think about it, if you take a relationship between celebrities as an example, one of them wants to break up, and the other doesn't say anything, but let the other party know the news of their "breakup" through news announcements, it's not too much. It's scum, okay?

This is what Kim Yoo-hee dislikes.

So she felt sorry for her father even more.

It's really not very kind for SBS to tear up its face and kill the donkey like this.

"Youxi, I know you must be very angry now and want to do something." Quan Zhilong watched Jin Youxi walking back and forth over the video and said, "But the best way for now is to let your father do it himself. deal with this."

"If you intervene, it is very likely that this scene will become more tense. After all, senior Kim Jong-kook will continue to stay in the South Korean entertainment industry. It is not good for him to have a stalemate with SBS."

"Then bear it like this?" Jin Youxi closed her eyes irritably, took a deep breath, "Okay, I understand what you mean."

Quan Zhilong hesitated to speak.

What he actually wanted to say was that not everyone could have such a situation as Youxi, who could turn back after being torn apart by a behemoth like the TV station.

Although Senior Zhong Guo is Kim Youxi's father, he is not Kim Youxi after all.

"Well, you should calm down for two days and prepare for your concert with peace of mind." Quan Zhilong turned to smile, "After all, South Korea may not really proceed as the program team thought."

Jin Youxi: "?"

"Your father has been in the South Korean entertainment industry for so many years, don't you think he has no cards?" Quan Zhilong said, "Don't underestimate your father."

Jin Youxi was taken aback for a moment.

After careful consideration of Quan Zhilong's two words, the worries in her heart suddenly dissipated a lot.

The experience of these days made Jin Youxi habitually worried that he did not protect his family enough, and almost forgot that his father was not actually weak.

Yes, before she became a big hit in MASKCROW, Kim Jong Kook has always been the father who stood in front of her and sheltered her from the wind and rain.

His stalwart back once became her harbor, a source of courage for her to enter YG and leave YG again.

She really cared about it but was confused, and she couldn't even figure out what kind of person her father was.

Feeling relieved, Jin Youxi noticed Quan Zhilong's new light green hair color in the video.

Conspicuous is conspicuous, good-looking is good-looking, but the color is just...

Influenced by her previous life, no matter how Jin Youxi sees this hair color, she feels that she has been alluded to...

This is really unfair.

She really doesn't have much love recently, she is so busy that she doesn't even have much time to communicate with her boyfriend, let alone get into any romantic debts.

"Ouba..." She stared at his hair, hesitated to speak.

"What's wrong?" Quan Zhilong didn't realize it, he thought she was staring at his hair roots, "Recently, the hair quality is not very good, so I don't dye the hair roots anymore, my scalp hurts a lot."

Light-colored hair needs to be bleached, and no matter how expensive the bleaching is, the scalp cannot withstand such constant tossing.

Hearing what he said, Jin Youxi suddenly became a little worried about her boyfriend's scalp.

Taking a closer look...how does it feel, Ouba's hair volume seems to be a little less.
