Chapter 65 "The Lie" VS "Tellme"
In August, when the sun was scorching, many singers returned as Choi Junxiu said goodbye to the stage of "That Man". On August 17, Bigbang, a group of five people who have always claimed to be a powerful idol, released its mini series "ALWAYS", in which the main song "Lie" composed and composed by captain Kwon G-long himself caused a storm in the Korean music market once it was announced.
Even the representative music rankings of South Korea, HANTEO, and other online and offline music album sales charts like CYWORD, have been strongly impacted. There is a momentum to challenge the sales champion "Un-Cherishing Song Festival" some time ago. However, the terrifying sales volume of 490,000 copies of "Ballad Festival" made many people not optimistic about "ALWAYS". It's not that they can't do it themselves, but that the enemy is too strong, ^_^
However, the title song "Lie" has been qualified to challenge the hit song "That Man" in July. It was released on the 17th and officially participated in KBS's Music Bank on the 18th, and began to hit the list of "Lie". The strong hiphop style, sad lyrics, super poisonous melody, and exquisite MV made it crazy sought after by fans as soon as it was released, and 30,000 copies were sold in just one week.
YG's leader Yang Hyun-soo immediately ended his other external itinerary at bigbang and made every effort to compete in the ranking of "Lie". With the full operation of YG company, the first place in the first week of Mobile Ranking of MBC Music Center - Lie, CYWORLD August Song Award - Lie, "Lie" became the fastest song to win the "Song Of The Month" award in the cyworld digital music ranking. Even Choi Jun-seok's "That Man" was compared and
MELON, DOXIRA, JUKEON and other online popularity rankings all ranked first, and it was really spreading like a lie, showing an unstoppable momentum. Therefore, G-Dragon, Bigbang, and "Lie" have been paying attention to never, like a rocket, and have attracted strong attention from all netizens. "Lie", which was released in mid-to-late August, sold 127,000 copies per month, and the album sales in September reached 203,000, and the maximum sales volume recorded in the 6-week total sales reached 330,000 copies.
A full-time idol group like Bigbang is much more powerful in publicity than Choi Junxiu. Its dazzling shape, intense dance, and a hot stage. Coupled with the operation of a professional entertainment company like YG, "Lie" swept across the board in mid-to-late August. In just 14 days, it won two popular songs and two music bankers, which was simply unrivaled. Every time I made the rankings, the overwhelming VIP crown light made people feel stressed.
In mid-August, Bigbang, a hiphop group that uses meaning as the Big Bang, really burst out with extremely powerful energy. The song "Lie" is more in line with the style of mainstream Korean music, surpassing Choi Junxi's "That Man" and is respected by the troublemakers as a god song. As a composer himself, G-Dragon, who composed the lyrics, is even known as a "genius composer". (These things are really not very valuable~) Some media compared them with Choi Junxi. The two are both singer-songwriters, and they are so similar in age. Because G-Dragon in 1988 is one year younger than Choi Junxi in 1987, some media have ulterior motives to think that G-Dragon is better. Finally, some media deliberately went to interview Choi Junxi and G-Dragon.
Fortunately, G-Dragon was not overwhelmed by the popularity of the outbreak. When answering reporters' questions, he still modestly said that he was a junior, and senior Choi Junxi was a role model for him to learn from, avoiding a war of verbalism in the entertainment industry. Faced with the inexplicable contrast, Choi Junxi was also amused and cried, and he was really shot while lying down.
The popularity of "Lie" has made Bigbang directly enter the position of a first-line boy group. It is another popular group after Dongfang Shenqi, Ss501, Superjunior. Its unique hiphop style is very popular for a while, and it seems to be about to reappear the crazy phenomenon caused by Choi Junxi in July. This makes the singers who finally waited until Choi Junxi bid farewell to the stage and came out to take a breath again, and this makes us not live. Major entertainment companies can only grit their teeth and move their artists back on the stage, and even S*M postponed the release time of SJ's regular second album. This disappoints the media and other entertainment companies that originally wanted to watch the battle between Superjunior and Bigbang.
However, it is surprising that just when Bigbang was raging the song world, no one dared to fight. After the regrouping, wondergirls bravely took the pace of challenge. After Hyuna withdrew from the team, JYP absorbed Kim Yoo-bin from Gwangju, and his super RAP ability filled the vacancy after the Mustang left. After a short running-in period, on September 1, five girls released their regular series "The Wonder Years" under tremendous pressure. The title song "tellme" changed the dance style of their debut, but instead used a strong retro and cute theme. It was criticized by countless musicians as "naive" and believed that Park Jin-young was afraid of being crazy, so he used this style to challenge Bigbang who was in a crazy state.
However, something that made the Korean ballad industry fall into a glasses. "Tellme" first soared wildly on the music audition online list, and in just one week it squeezed into the top three, ranking only under "Lie" and "That Man". After gaining enough attention, Park Jin-young decisively arranged for wondergirls to participate in the Music Center for the rankings on September 8th.
Crazy things happened one after another. I thought it was five girls who hit the stone with eggs. As soon as the scene of "TELLME" came out, the media and audio critics almost bit off their tongues! The girls were playful and cute stage inexplicably scratched the howling place in the hearts of the wolf friends, instantly attracting a large group of "public wolf men".
Especially the beloved Ahn Sohee of Wondergirls, a word of "omona" and a move to hold a bun's face in an instant killed countless owls, causing countless male compatriots to fall off one after another, becoming his willing fans. Sohee was also given the title of "National Sister" (this is not worth it)
Compared with "Lie", "tellme" is too simple in music, but because of its simplicity and sing, the repeated two words "tellme" increase the poisonousness of the song, and with its unique dance, it has captured countless fans.
Different from Bigbang's crazy in physical media, wondergirls took a different approach and took the lead on the Internet. Some netizens posted videos of their imitation of "tellme" on the Internet, and then it went out of control, and crazily triggered the Internet. Countless dead housemen "drilled" from their nests and imitated the dance of "tellme". Soldiers, policemen, white-collar workers, office workers, students and even many artists began to imitate. Various videos flooded the Korean Internet, and eventually formed a huge social phenomenon!
So, a crazy scene in the Korean music industry was born! A popular musical song "Lie", a music bank "Tellme", and a M!Countdown "Lie"... After you sang and I came on stage, we took turns to compete for the list. The battle was fierce and dangerous as if we were back to the era of the heroes competing for the late 1990s. That was the era of the rise of Korean music industry. HOT, Crystal Boy, NRG, Babyvos, SES, Fin.k.l A large number of Korean music stars competed for their dreams to the death, and it was also the most glorious era in the Korean music industry.
Now, the head-on confrontation between the two popular groups has made fans of the two camps the most fanatical fans in South Korea. Every time, the support area in the music program, which each occupy half of the country, the countless VIP crown lights and pearl wine reds have the illusion that the two separate the world.
Seeing this exciting scene, all the media were excited and excited! They were red and panting, staring at the two combinations hard, reporting everything about them at a storm every day. Family, teachers, classmates, background, everything, as long as news related to them is related to them, they are not afraid of no sales. All South Korea seems to be paying attention to these young girls.
In this storm of national concern, Choi Junxi quietly ended his contract with MBC and quietly signed Yoo Jae-suk's JS Entertainment Company, breaking free from the most important constraint so far.
August 26th is the deadline for Choi Junxi's two-year MBC contract. MBC and JS Entertainment, which have already had a tacit understanding, and Choi Junxi completed the end and signing of the contract in a low-key manner. When Choi Junxi signed his name on Yoo Jae-suk's contract, he finally got rid of his MBC exclusive artist and became a free artist like Yoo Jae-suk.
"Uncle, I'll ask you to take care of me in the future." Choi Junxi and Yoo Jae-suk shook hands tightly.
"Don't worry, I will never cheat you." Liu Zaishi smiled.
"It's better... I've handed my fate to my brother." Choi Junxi muttered, "If you're sorry for me, hum..."
"Ah~" Yoo Jae-suk was so funny, "What are you talking about nonsense!"
