Chapter 123: Gone
e three of them, they bowed and greeted them one after another, while Ji Jingyuan also smiled politely in return. Soon, the two groups passed by each other. 。Pool Jingyuan several people didn't pay at...It's probably both of them preparing for their final moments before going on stage, and soon Chi Jingyuan received replies from each other.
"Come on!!" Zhou Tzuyu repeated the message Ji Jingyuan had sent her, adding several exclamation marks at the end to emphasize her tone. It was both a reply and a way for herself to cheer herself up. 。"Thank you." Namie Amuro's reply received many responses. Similarly, after expressing gratitude in Japanese, she added the two people's most commonly used smiley face emoji at the end. 。Although the two people's replies were different, their tones and habits were also quite different, but Chi Jingyuan could still vaguely feel a sudden sense of tension from them, and he seemed to be able to understand the pressure they both carried now. 。After all, after all this effort they've put in, the final decision is about to be made - whether they can actually debut as a girl group under JYP. Anyone in this situation would definitely not be able to stay calm. The pressure and tension must be enormous. 。
Without saying anything more, Chi Jingyuan just lay in bed scrolling through his phone, waiting for the program to start.
...went on a personal trip and hasn't come back yet. Oh Se-hun, Kim Min-jae, Park Chan-wook, and a few others went out for a late-night snack, and before they left, Ji-sung asked them to bring some back. 。He was all alone in his bedroom at the moment, enjoying the freedom and not having to wear headphones. He could blast music freely without worrying about disturbing anyone else. 。When it was almost time, Chi Jingyuan pulled a table over, propped his phone on it with a stand, and went to get a few bags of snacks. He sat cross-legged on the bed, looking very relaxed as he watched the last segment of an advertisement. 。Soon, the final episode of began airing. It started with a few sponsorships and advertisements, then it began to reminisce about the earlier content. 。This episode is not a recording, but a live broadcast synchronized with Naver TV. The live recording location is CJ&e Heart. Although it's called a real-time broadcast, it will definitely be delayed by a few minutes to avoid unexpected incidents. 。However, it's a live broadcast after all, and no one knows for sure who will ultimately succeed in their debut. Looking at the various replays in front of him, as well as the members' VTR interviews facing the final leg, Ji Kyeong-won actually felt a rare sense of tension coming from within. 。
Because he didn't know either, whether Zhou Tzuyu would be able to successfully secure a spot in this new girl group's debut lineup. Even though he truly believed that this girl had talent, in terms of both her appearance and her personal qualities, as well as her audience appeal, she was excellent. He believed Park Jin-young must have already seen it too, but there was no guarantee she would make it to the end.
After all, JYP's reputation in this area is really quite loud. This company has rubbed shoulders with many famous popular artists or idols. 。
Of course, IU's fame needs no introduction. EXID's Ahn Hyo-seop was also eliminated by JYP Entertainment. Even EXO's elder brother Xiu had failed to pass the trainee selection process in the past. The once-popular group BEAST even had four members who were trainees at JYP before leaving. It is said that even Park Ki-won, a talented main vocalist like Yang Yoseob, was eliminated due to poor monthly evaluation scores.
No, JYP's requirements are so high... Every time he thinks about this, he can't help but feel a sigh of admiration and longing for this magical company. 。Sometimes Ji-yeong even wonders, without the support of his family, if he would have been eliminated during JYP's auditions or training period... In the recorded VCRs, each trainee seems to be filled with emotion. This five-month journey on "Sixteen" is an experience they will likely never forget in their lives. 。
Tzuyu seemed very lively inside. She looked familiar with the other people around her, liked to make jokes proactively, and often laughed. However, every time she laughed, her eyes would squint together, looking quite unpleasant.
After a build-up of anticipation and atmosphere, the remaining 12 trainees took to the stage one by one, divided into two groups to commence their performance. 。Choosing an idol, while the story is important, ultimately comes down to seeing them on stage. 。What's more novel this time is that the stage didn't perform other artists' songs. JYP gave the two groups three new songs, "Should We Go Crazy," "truth," and "One More Time." These are all songs that Ji Chang-wook has never heard before, which is quite interesting. 。Whether it sounds good or not is a matter of personal preference. 。The process is that each group performs a new song, then performs the same song "Come Again", and finally Park Jin-young evaluates. 。It's still fair, after all, everyone is performing the same song. Then whoever sings better and has a better stage presence will be obvious at a glance, there isn't much room for excuses. 。Qi Jingyuan was also quite interested in these new songs, as well as the stage presence of these girls. He watched attentively while munching on a chocolate bar. 。Every person had beautiful makeup on, their hair was specially styled, and some even wore noticeable lipstick and eyeshadow. Although it might not seem age-appropriate, the sophistication and aura with the makeup really did make them look like they were debuting as artists. 。However, being trainees, although it was evident that they had been meticulously prepared, many shortcomings also became apparent during the live broadcast. Whether it was the neatness of the dance moves or their control over breathing and pitch, there were quite a few flaws. A few parts even noticeably went out of tune several times. 。It's unclear if it's Sihyeon or . Besides, he feels that there's a gap in strength between the two groups of trainees...Lin Na Yeon's group is obviously stronger. 。"Hey " 。"Watching, watching, Ji Jingyuan suddenly exclaimed in surprise. He found that Zhou Tzuyu, who was performing on stage, seemed to have had a stage accident. Her microphone, which was originally behind her buttocks, might have been knocked off because of the amplitude and force of the movements." 。This isn't a small matter. If Mike falls and breaks, it could directly affect her headset's sound, causing a big flaw on stage. Or it could fall onto the stage and be stepped on by someone dancing, potentially leading to someone tripping or even being kicked, making a jarring noise. 。
Many debuting artists can't react to these unexpected little situations, let alone these green trainees.
Just when Chi Jingyuan was a little worried about Zhou Tzuyu, she stretched out her hand and grabbed the microphone flying in mid-air. Holding it tightly, she directly jumped into the next dance move, naturally placing the microphone beside her cheek, casually shaking her hair, with a smile on her face and expression unaffected, still so bright and sunny, as if nothing had happened at all. 。That's how she kept holding onto the microphone and jumped all the way to the end, without making any mistakes. Even until the stage ended, many people hadn't realized anything was wrong. 。Wow, that's amazing! 。ay's EXO is unparalleled in both fame and popularity, considered one of the most popular male groups on the peninsula.Because they have only recently debuted and lack experience, they not only need th...
