The Rise of Korean Entertainment

The maknae is a very popular position within a group. It may be that the leader is not good at it, or the actor is not good at it, but the maknae is usually one of the most popular members in the group. If the maknae is not popular at all None, it can almost be concluded that this group can be disbanded at any time.

It can be seen from Xu Xian that he is hardly a person who can appear in variety shows alone. He had almost no personal resources before Li Menglong came, but he is not the most popular person in the team all year round. This is the maknae's natural attraction to fans. law.

However, the relationship between the maknae of different groups needs to be discussed. One of the main reasons for the lack of closeness may be that everyone is the palm of their hand in their respective groups. They usually take shelter under the wings of the unnies, so they get along alone. Sometimes I feel a little arrogant for the combination.

On the other hand, people like the lead singer or captains are much more mature, and they can also distinguish the difference between the so-called rivals and competitors on and off the stage. Therefore, if you look at the past, how the captains of different groups get along with each other Definitely more harmonious than the maknae.

Li Menglong doesn't understand this yet. After all, he has no access to the complex interpersonal relationships unique to the idol circle. Besides, he hardly knows any other groups besides Girls' Generation.

For example, when the little girl with a dumpling face in front of him said hello, Li Menglong stupidly asked: "Are you a new writer?"

Li Menglong also kept an eye on him and did not say that he was a new director. After all, it is almost impossible for such a young female director to exist. As a writer, because the threshold is relatively low, it is still possible as an assistant, and he called him a senior, so he That’s why I asked.

However, Li Menglong is also out of his mind today. He just said hello to Seohyun. Could it be that Seohyun is also a writer, so the most normal guess is to ask if the other person is a descendant of an idol.

But the biggest reason that made Li Menglong ask this question is that the other party really doesn't have the posture of a star. One of the girls can still look like a star even without makeup and wearing ordinary clothes, but the other party doesn't look like the girl next door. My sister is like the kind who can live next to you.

It’s definitely not that the other party is not good-looking, it’s just that this feeling makes Li Menglong feel unique. Moreover, in order to alleviate Li Menglong’s mistake, Seohyun has already taken the initiative to introduce: "This is the maknae Ahn So-hee of Wonder Girls. She should have been born in 1992." , anyway, it’s okay to be much younger than you Oppa!”

But after saying that, Xu Xian looked at Li Menglong's blank eyes and knew that the words were in vain. Wonder girls. Maybe Li Menglong could have mentioned this name a little bit, but it was a bit difficult to talk about An Zhaoxi specifically.

Fortunately, Xu Xian was smarter and quickly found a way for Li Menglong to get to know each other quickly: "You are familiar with Zhi En, what is her title?"

Li Menglong knows this, otherwise he would not be chased by Li Zhien: "She is a national sister! She is very popular!"

"Our Sohee is also a national sister!" Xu Xian received it immediately.

Li Menglong blushed a little at this time. According to the popularity of this national title, the other party should be a very popular star. Li Menglong actually let someone become a writer as if he was blind. Isn't this embarrassing?

"Well, I'm usually busy and don't know many people. Please forgive me!"

"I dare not take it seriously. It would be nice if seniors could get to know me!" An Zhaoxi said very politely, but it could be seen that the girl was a little uncomfortable.

Neither Li Menglong nor Yin Eunhui were aggressive seniors, so they kindly left Xu Xian here for company, and then Li Menglong supported Yin Eunhui and continued to explore other foods.

Li Menglong's idea was good. After all, the two seemed to be about the same age and knew each other, so the young people could talk freely after the two old men left. However, the atmosphere was not as good as when they were here just now.

Because Seohyun and An Sohee are not familiar with each other at all, and they have never even communicated in private. Moreover, Seohyun was a little envious of each other at first, because An Sohee was very helpful to Wonder Girls, which made Seohyun feel a little guilty. , after all, she used to rely more on the light of Ernies.

And as the maknae, I can responsibly say that at least before Seohyun made a movie, Ahn So-hee's reputation could still overwhelm her. Although she seems not to be popular, the title of a national sister is really not a joke. Even if the group disbands in the future, Ahn So Hee can rely on this name to earn a living in the film industry.

This is two levels higher than Seohyun who has been working hard in the music industry. After all, South Korea respects movie actors, but Seohyun has managed to become the nation's first love in the past year or so, so he can be here He straightened his back a little in front of his "old enemy".

"Is Sunye Unnie here too?" Xu Xian was relatively mature and took the lead in breaking the deadlock.

"Nai, we were discussing something with the company recently, and we happened to be in the company, so we came over together!"

"Things?" Xu Xian repeated without asking any more questions. After all, it was someone's privacy. However, the old rival of the Wonder Girls seemed to be in a bad situation right now. What could be discussed at this time?

When the two maknae here began to slowly exchange feelings, Yoon Eun Hye on the other end was also laughing at Li Menglong crazily: "I said you are still not from the circle? Or are you an assistant of Girls' Generation?"

"What's wrong with me? I'm very responsible, okay!" Li Menglong said while picking up food.

"Then let me ask you, your dedicated assistant, who is Girls' Generation's biggest competitor?" Yoon Eun Hye asked with a strange expression.

Looking at this expression, I knew that the other party was going to watch the fun, but Li Menglong didn't mind being slapped in the face: "Tara, Li Shunkyu told me!"

"you sure?"

"That's kara? It seems Xu Xian mentioned that!"

"Stop thinking about which other girl group you know!"

"You mean I'm fooling you!" Li Menglong began to lie: "Girls' Generation is the number one girl group, so there are no competitors. You are just playing brainteasers with me, right?"

"Don't take your ignorance as a personality! If you don't know, just say you don't know!" Yoon Eun Hye despised him before telling him the name - wonder girls!

To be honest, I can't blame Li Menglong for being too naive. The Wonder Girls group has never appeared since he met the girls, and he has never had any contact with them either at work or in private.

The girls are indeed the number one girl group, but there was a girl group before them that was on top of them for a long time, even in 2009 when Girls' Generation wanted to usurp the throne with their GEE. , Wonder Girls also competed with a comparable divine song called No Bady.

It can be said that at least before 2009, WG was the only one, and between 2009 and 2009, SNSD and WG co-existed. The turning point was the practices of the two equally popular groups after 2009 - the girls chose to stick to the Korean market and expand themselves. The local influence lasted until about 2011; while wg chose to develop North American and overseas markets.

The results are already obvious. From 10 years later to now and within the next few years, Girls’ Generation is the well-deserved number one girl group.

Although it seems a pity, you have to understand the background of wg's departure at that time. They had been popular from 2007 to the end of 2009. At this time, Girls' Generation also had to go out, because there was no space for them to develop in China.

It was a similar situation when Girls went to Japan in 2011. The only difference is that Girls continued to be popular in Japan, but WG failed in the United States. The difference is that when WG went out, Girls' Generation was strong, but Girls' Generation went out. At that time, no girl group could stand up and fill the market.

Among them, 2ne1 and Tara are the most promising, but the former is limited by its own hip-hop style, and the upper limit of its audience cannot reach the level suitable for all ages; while the latter is the most promising one, hoping to attract girls from It's a pity that the company is seeking death for those who have taken down the throne.

The situation is similar. The girls have stayed in China for another year this year. When they start touring in the second half of next year, they will give the new girl group a chance to see if anyone can seize the opportunity.

Therefore, wg is the opponent that girls have looked up to, chased, fought, and finally surpassed. Even though the glory may no longer be there, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. If wg does not disband, it will become the rival and old enemy of the girls.

So it's completely understandable that Seohyun and An Sohee are a little embarrassed. It's like you can't expect the people from Coca-Cola and the people from Pepsi to be harmonious, right? Of course, this doesn't hinder the emotional exchanges between high-level personnel.

Kim Taeyeon held a girl's arm and chatted excitedly all the way. This time, this girl looked more like a star. At first glance, she looked like a good wife, loving mother, and gentle nature, which made people very fond of her. Girl In our team, Yuli is usually responsible for a certain role.

"Why don't you go over? You want me to come here to find you!" Kim Taeyeon complained even though she was far away, but she could be so casual, but other girls couldn't.

"Hello, senior, I am Min Sun-ye, the leader of Wonder Girls! Please take care of me!"

"Well, I just met the maknae of your team!" After Li Menglong said it, he remembered that it seemed that Seohyun and the other party were a little awkward just now, but if that state was normal, now Kim Taeyeon is What? Surrender to the enemy?

The question in Li Menglong's eyes was very obvious. Logically speaking, it would be better for an opponent of this level not to start a fight when they meet. What's going on with this hand in hand?

This is about Li Menglong's newbie. It's like the CEOs of Pepsi and Coca-Cola can appreciate each other and make friends, but can you expect them to have a good time with a very Coke CEO? So although they are rivals, they are in a state of sympathy, appreciating and catching up with each other, and spurring each other on the way forward.

So facing Li Menglong's questioning gaze, Kim Taeyeon hugged Min Sunye without hesitation: "This is my good friend, don't look at him lustfully!"

Li Menglong is embarrassed!
