Korean entertainment life reset

In the summer of 2010, the World Cup, a once-in-four-year football event, attracted the attention of almost all nationals. Before the game, the TV station did a lot of variety shows around the World Cup. Artists can also use the name of "support" Running and running, but when the horn of battle officially sounded, the entertainment industry inevitably fell into a short-term depression.

The members of beast feel this personally.The itinerary was "cleaned" at a speed visible to the naked eye. Except for Yin Doujun, Li Qiguang's variety show schedule, and Long Junheng going out to do feat for other singers to earn extra money, the rest of beast's itinerary is only the group show—— If you don't count the preparation for the return after the World Cup as a "schedule".

After recording the new episode of "idolmaid", Zhang Xianyu felt that he was so free that he was about to grow mushrooms. Hong Shengcheng asked him to go to the company to listen to a variety show training class. Zhang Xianyu went to listen to it once and found it boring. He was not interested in witnessing the cube variety show again. With the development of the training system, I simply drove to Huyuan University, handed in a few design assignments, and then went to the Broadcasting and Performing Arts Department to take classes.

Huyuan University is not a particularly high-end school, but as a place where many trainees from small companies go to get their diplomas, it still puts some effort into related majors.Zhang Xianyu didn't have the habit of taking notes, so he took a notebook as a pretense in order not to look awkward in a group of people, but listening to it, he also heard something interesting, and wrote down the scattered insights Some.It’s hard for an artist to follow a set of rules when doing broadcasting, unless they don’t want to rely on broadcasting at all and just deal with it, so excellent broadcasters don’t have so-called academic backgrounds at all, they all figure out their own way, but there are some rules when broadcasting , and behind-the-scenes processes, etc., it is still necessary to understand, and this is what the teacher talked about on stage.Zhang Xianyu is very cautious and sensitive when dealing with outsiders, and he attaches great importance to how to keep himself from "crossing the boundaries". Therefore, he has not been an obedient student since he was a child, and he has a dispensable attitude towards campus life when he goes to university. It was rare for him to listen carefully to two classes.

When the bell rang for the end of get out of class, the teachers and students left one after another.Zhang Xianju just raised his head, closed his notebook, and stretched comfortably—it is really a beautiful and special experience to listen to the class in a good mood.

"Pa-ta." Under the relaxation, Zhang Xianyu's movements were a little rough, and he accidentally swept away the pens that the students behind him put on the table.Zhang Xianyu hurriedly bent down to pick it up, put the pen back for others, bowed his head and apologized: "I'm sorry."

"It's okay." The voice of the boy sitting in the back sounded a little high, but it wasn't the sissy shrill voice - I don't know why it was a little familiar.

When Zhang Xianyu raised his head and saw the other person's face, this sense of familiarity became stronger.

It's not very polite to stare directly at other people's faces. Zhang Xianyu moved his gaze down a little bit, thinking about where he had seen the person in front of him—in all likelihood, he was an artist he had met while playing songs in his previous life, and his connections outside the company were almost Zhang Xianyu, who didn't have it, had long been mentally prepared for the situation where he felt familiar when he saw people but couldn't remember them for a long time.

"Hello, senior." Before Zhang Xianju could recall, the person opposite him recognized Zhang Xianju, and stood up with another boy beside him.

Zhang Xianyu quickly pressed the shoulders of the two people opposite him, "Go out and talk", he looked around, but no one noticed this, so he said in a low voice.In order to attend class safely, he not only dressed low-key and hid in a corner, but even endured the whole class without raising his head. If he failed at this moment, his neck would hurt in vain.

But... Looking at the huge difference in the skin color of the two people in front of him, Zhang Xianjue was vaguely impressed.

Che Xueyuan felt very uncomfortable.

Meeting seniors in the entertainment industry in college is not a big deal, meeting a senior who doesn't talk much and standing next to a friend who is even more quiet is the problem.

Standing between two people who cherish words like gold, one is a senior and the other is a friend, Cha Xueyuan said that this is a disaster.

Zhang Xianjue's feeling is not much better. Dealing with juniors has never been something he is good at. After he came back and became a junior for four years, he has forgotten most of the experience in his previous life, and he can't pick it up for a while.After Cha Xueyuan and Zheng Zeyun introduced themselves, he entered an embarrassing state of lack of words.

In fact, Zhang Xianyu wanted to turn around and leave. At the end of 12, he filmed the MV "One Year ago" with Jung Eunji and Sun Namjoo of apink. Yoon Doojoon, who went to visit the class, greeted the two girls and talked for a while, while Zhang Xianyu They didn't say a word without any pressure, and retreated directly after the MV was filmed, but the situation now is different from that time, it seems a bit... inappropriate to take them out and leave them alone.

Xu Shengyu once analyzed why Zhang Xianzhen received a lot of praise and care from his seniors, but he rarely had close peers and juniors: "Seniors actually don't have many demands on juniors. One is politeness and the other is sincerity. I can do this. But getting along with peers and juniors requires some skills, and this is my brother's weakness." Zhang Xianyu knew that Xu Shengyu sincerely hoped that he could have better interpersonal relationships. Even more so.Zhang Xianyu understands Xu Shengyu's kindness, but he doesn't really take many actions. One is because he has no confidence in his own ability.

As for now, forget it, this is the case, let's try it first.

"Jellyfish's trainee..." Zhang Xianyu thought hard, "Is this the company where Senior Cheng Shijing works?"

"Yes." Che Xueyuan replied.

"Is this going to launch a boy group?" Zhang Xianyu glanced at Cha Xueyuan, then at Zheng Zeyun beside him, and forced a smile, "I was a little surprised when I heard the news that Woollim was going to launch a boy group. It turns out that there are more than one company that wants to get involved in an idol group.” Woollim originally operated the hip-hop group EpikHigh, which has nothing to do with idols who sing dance music. Jellyfish, which operates a solo singer, has set foot in an idol group. It’s really not surprising in comparison. , Zhang Xianzhen pursed his lips, "Maybe I will be able to see you on the music show soon."

"Senior is overrated, we are still a long way from our debut." Cha Xueyuan said modestly.

As the conversation progressed, memories of vixx, the combination of the two people in front of him, gradually emerged in Zhang Xianyu's mind. vixx is a six-member men's group launched by jellyfish. It debuted in 2012. At that time, beast's schedule in Korea, which was on the front line, had been greatly reduced. The two groups did not have much contact. There was only one special comeback for the fifth anniversary of beast. They overlapped with vixx, and when vixx made their debut, they also caught up with the returning beast. At that time, they didn't collide with each other, but they met each other.

The most intuitive feeling at that time was - why are they so high.

Zhang Xianyu, who belonged to the idol boy group Beast, who was the second-to-last group in height, stepped back a little without a trace.

As the team leader, Cha Hak-yeon is able to talk because of his comprehensive strength, so he has always had the most schedules in the team. However, Zhang Xianyu has a deeper impression of Zheng Zeyun, who has been silent beside him. Acting in a musical, they collided together during the comeback period, Liang Yaoxie often left him in the waiting room to chat + molested with his teammates, and witnessed this junior who was much more silent than himself, just like himself back then Falling into a situation where his teammates fiddled around like a spinning top, Zhang Xianjue silently lit a root of wax.

But now that I am face to face with a real person, Zhang Xianjue also has the idea of ​​prying the other person's mouth open-why is it facial paralysis, if I want to say something, you can keep silent?

"Does Zeyunxi know Yoo-seop and Kikwang?"

"I know them. They are seniors from the same high school." Zheng Zeyun's voice was soft and soft. If his appearance was also very feminine, he could be said to be "sissy". If you want muscles to have muscles, the contrast in voice really makes it difficult to say anything.

"Then I remember correctly", Zhang Xianjue couldn't remember how to continue when he said this, and simply took out his mobile phone, "You are my juniors in college, and you will debut in the future, you are my juniors in the music industry, let's exchange Phone number, do you have a cell phone?"

It's hard for him to say "more contact in the future", because Zhang Xianyu can't guarantee this.

"Yes, trainees don't have much control over this." Che Xueyuan said, he and Zheng Zeyun both took out their mobile phones, and the three exchanged phone numbers.

"If the company has controls in this area after debut, please notify me in advance." Zhang Xianyu said.

In the end, Zhang Xianyu invited them to have lunch outside again. Zheng Zeyun and his similar foodie attributes allowed the two to find a lot of common language in eating quietly and quickly. In people's eyes, labels such as "nagging" and "worrying all day long" are closely related to "big mom", but he is still a bit indifferent to Cha Xueyuan, who is born with the attributes of big mom.

It was already afternoon when I returned to Seoul. As soon as Zhang Xianzhen arrived in Cheongdam-dong, he received a call from Sun Dongyun, who was annoyed by the illegitimate meal. One was to complain, and the other was to remind him.No matter in the previous life or in this life, when he was harassed by illegitimate fans, Zhang Xianji must be the first to stand up and sing bad faces. The members persuaded him several times that there is no need to get too stiff with those people. Criticism, bearing the name of "fan" is enough to make artists feel at a loss, Zhang Xianzhen has always been noncommittal, but it is a bit funny for the worry and touch of the members when they say these words-every time he stands in front It is not because of some sacrifice Spirituality, even if he is alone, Zhang Xianyu doesn't have a good face towards illegitimate students.

Zhang Xianyu thought for a while, and told Sun Dongyun that he would not go back for the time being, and that he would notify him after Quan Junjian solved the problem.There are rules for illegitimate children. The group at Cube today obviously violated the rules to make Sun Dongyun so irritable. If this is the case, the company will definitely deal with it.As for myself, I just happened to go to the accessories stores around to see if there were any that could be used in his design works.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xianyu asked the taxi driver to change the direction, and ran to a shop specializing in hiphop style clothing.

Afternoon is not an active time for black bubble lovers, and the store is relatively deserted. Zhang Xianyu stood at the door and didn't see anyone, so he walked in calmly, checking the sunglasses, necklaces and other things one by one.

He was watching so seriously that when he was going to get a bracelet but collided with another person's hand halfway, Zhang Xianyu was taken aback.

Looking up the hand with the tattoo on the thumb, Zhang Xianjue saw the man's face: "Brother Zai Fan?" He blurted out.

Park Jae-bum was also very surprised: "Xian Jiao?"

Zhang Xianyu's big eyes almost turned round when he was frightened. Park Jae-fan couldn't help being a little funny seeing him like this, but he relaxed first: "Didn't you see me just now?"

Zhang Xianyu nodded.

"I was picking clothes over there, maybe it was blocked by the shelf in the middle." Park Jae-beom, who has been ridiculed countless times because of his height of less than 1.7 meters, said sadly.

Zhang Xianzhen, who refused to remove the honorifics easily, encountered this situation, so naturally he couldn't go along with the teasing: "I didn't pay attention to it, the color of the senior's clothes and this place also fits very well."

"This is not in front of the camera, don't call me senior, just like before." Park Jae-bum said.

"Okay, brother." Zhang Xianyu paused and said.

In jyp, Jang Hyun-ro’s title of “Senior” was useless for two days, and he was forced to change it by the very unaccustomed Park Jae-bum. When Jang Hyun-roo finally debuted as a member of beast, he had just been active as the captain of 2pm for a year Park Jae-bum has already been forced to leave the team because of the dissatisfaction with South Korea he wrote in the space four years ago, and returned to Seattle. In February this year, he terminated his contract with the company because of what jyp said was a "serious mistake", and officially quit 2pm. It was already June of this year when Park Jae-bum returned to South Korea because of the filming. After Jang Hyun-joo left JYP to join Cube in early 2008, he has not had much contact with Park Jae-bum. Calling this person "senior" is even more distant.

When two people who were in the same room as trainees met on this occasion, apart from accidents, they also brought back some memories.At that time, Park Jae-bum, Jo Kwon, Jang Hyun-joo, Lee Ki-kwang and Lee Jun-ho formed the most competitive five-person group among jyp trainees, but after just three years, the fate of the five people has been completely different. They left jyp, entered a new company together, and finally made their debut together. Although there were minor conflicts, it did not interfere with their friendship. In Park Jae-bum's story, there are dramatic elements such as involvement, estrangement, and abandonment. , people have to sigh when they think of it.

"Why did you come here? I didn't expect you to be connected with hiphop." Because he stayed in the United States for too long, Park Jae-bum obviously forgot his Korean very badly, and even a simple sentence was stumbling. of.

"Didn't I be a trainee in YG in the first place?" Zhang Xianyu asked back.

Except for being a trainee in YG for a year in the early years, Zhang Xianyu seems to have nothing to do with hiphop, but this is not the case, because Zhang Xianyu, who has ignited his dream of being a singer with his admiration, has always maintained a love for hiphop after his debut. I also have friendship with some hip-hop musicians, such as gray who joined Park Jae-beom's personal music label aomg three years later.But Zhang Xianyu's love for hiphop is special, "I like hiphop, but when I like it, I don't love it as a kind of spirit, but as a form of expression", Zhang Xianyu said.

"I seem to remember." Park Jae-bum pressed his temples, "You said you were a performer before."

Zhang Xianxuan nodded. What he pursued was always the form of communication, not the content itself. He would be more excited during aker activities. It is not as simple as "men and women match, work is not tiring". I just saw it this morning. vixx, he was secretly envious of vixx back then—it’s so cool to change the concept every time he comes back. "Are you going to take this route in the future, are you going to be an artist or a performer?"

"Do whatever you can. Now I'm not restricted by the company. I want to make the music I want to do. As for the performance, if I can still be on stage, I will do it well." Park Jae-bum smiled wryly, no Go on.

Zhang Xianyu sensitively sensed Park Jae-beom's situation, and was a little embarrassed for a while. Suddenly, his heart moved, and he said with a smile: "How about letting me be a performer?"

"Can you rap?" Park Jae-bum glanced at him.

"Do feat." Zhang Xianyu smiled cheekily.

Zhang Xianyu and Park Jae-bum were roommates for nearly a year when they were trainees. The free and easy Park Jae-bum and the sensitive and restrained Zhang Xianyu had completely different personalities, and they had little to do with each other except for their passion for dancing. Therefore, although they had no relationship with each other Contradictory, but not at the level of heart-to-heart.However, in 2010, after things changed, the two met again, and the atmosphere was harmonious beyond imagination.Zhang Xianji later thought that this might be because the only things left between them were the good memories of the trainee period.He and his brothers in the big stick were also like this in the previous life. In addition to the music and stage exchanges with the sun, Zhang Xianyu met with Quan Zhilong and Cui Shengxian after his debut. Most of them went shopping together in Japan. They don't pay much attention to each other's current situation, and it will look like this in this life. Although the relationship is closer than in the previous life, they have grown up in different environments for several years, and the basis of maintaining friendship is still only memories.

Once again, there are more and more memories... Zhang Xianyu vaguely felt something, but after thinking about it for a while, he couldn't figure it out, and then left it behind.

The things are bought, now go back to the company to practice.

Park Jae-bum matched him with a suit in the store, full of hiphop taste, completely different from Zhang Xianyu's usual appearance, limited by the current positioning Zhang Xianyu can't wear it in front of the camera, but this image is very useful in private activities, and fans don't see it Gotta be able to recognize it.Zhang Xianzhen pressed his hat, lifted his sunglasses up and down, put his hands in his pockets, and wanted to whistle handsomely, but suddenly couldn't remember the essentials of the action...

Zhang Xianyu, who suddenly realized that his mental age is really not young, walked to the company sadly.

Although the sun was still in the sky, it was getting late. Zhang Xianjue first went to a convenience store near the cube to buy some food, and planned to simply solve the problem of dinner before going to practice.

He didn't expect that he would "encounter" for the third time on the same day.

Li Yan stood in the middle of the shelf, bowed his head and said something to the girl in front of him, as for the person standing opposite him, even Zhang Xianyu who looked sideways could recognize it at a glance, it was Jin Xuanya.

At this time, Jin Xuanya suddenly turned her head, glanced in the direction where Zhang Xianjiao was standing, and then turned her head back as if nothing had happened.Li Yan also cast a casual glance, he didn't recognize Zhang Xianjiao, and continued to talk to Jin Xuanya.

Jin Xuanya waved at him, Li Yan bent down slightly, and then Jin Xuanya leaned into his ear, said something unknown, the two looked at each other for two or three seconds, and then laughed together.

Zhang Xianyu watched quietly, and turned away when they continued to talk after laughing.

Lee Chan and Kim Hyun Ah used to choose each other as their ideal type. In 2011, Lee Chan participated in the filming of the MV for "bubblepop", because an intimate group photo caused a scandal...

The memories stop here.A question suddenly popped up in Zhang Xianyu's mind: Jin Xuanya had a boyfriend before the two fell in love in the previous life. Zhang Xianyu didn't particularly want to know about this, so he didn't know the specific situation, but only knew a simple one. Facts only.

In this life, from seeing Jin Xuanya in 2007 to now, Jin Xuanya has not been in a relationship for more than three years.

So……

The possibility that appeared in his mind made Zhang Xianyu feel cold all over.
