Chapter 1211 July
"……what?"
Ming Jingnan, who was lost in thought, was suddenly awakened by his father's question: "Come to my house, as a guest?"
She looked up at her father's bald head and saw an interested expression on his face. Her voice stuttered for a moment.
"correct."
Ming Jingyang nodded and said logically: "It just so happens that you and he are both in Osaka, and we are also here, and it is close to home... This kind of opportunity is not easy to find."
When I heard my wife say that my daughter had a boyfriend, I did some research online and found that the boy was surprisingly good.
It's just that at that time I heard from my wife that they had not been dating for long, so I didn't say much. But now they have been dating for such a long time, and it's just a coincidence that they have come together, it would be nice to get to know each other better.
"Forehead……"
Mingjingnan opened his mouth, but was at a loss for words.
She understood why her father suddenly brought up this... Since he knew that she and Chi Jingyuan were in a relationship, and now seeing the news about EXO in Japan, of course he had to care about it. It would be a problem if he didn't mention it.
but……
Just when Mingjing Nan was thinking about what to say with mixed feelings, her brother Mingjing Hai suddenly interrupted and asked in surprise, as if he had heard about this for the first time: "Mina's boyfriend? What? When did it happen? How come I don't know about it?"
Compared to the more delicate and pretty Mingjing Minami, her brother Mingjing Hai has some similar facial features to her, but his overall appearance is very rough, with dark skin and a beard. As a rugby player, he is not tall but very strong. When he sits there, he looks like a double-door refrigerator. If they are in the same frame with Mingjing Minami, the difference is very big, and it is difficult to recognize that the two are siblings.
He was very surprised that his sister was in love, but when he looked left and right, it seemed that everyone in his family knew about it except himself.
"Why didn't I hear you?"
He looked straight at his sister, frowning as if he was being left out.
"..."
Although his brother's interruption helped him out, Ming Jingnan wrinkled his nose when he felt his gaze, especially his tone, and pouted slightly as he looked at him.
Why am I telling you?
"Which one? Is that the group in the news? The boy band from Peninsula?"
Mingjing Hai came close to his mother Mingjing Yukiko, looked at the news photos on her phone, and asked curiously, speaking quickly and with a scrutinizing tone, "Is this the person?"
He and Mingjing Minami have always had a good relationship and they have hardly ever quarreled. Although they have fewer opportunities to meet after Mingjing Minami went to Peninsula to become an idol, the relationship between brother and sister is very deep. When he suddenly found out that she had a boyfriend, he inexplicably felt anxious.
And if he was an ordinary boyfriend, his parents wouldn't mention it. The fact that they could discuss it so seriously clearly showed that their relationship was not ordinary.
In his eyes, his sister is excellent in all aspects, with outstanding looks and temperament, and a gentle personality, but she is very introverted and quiet. Suddenly he found out that she has a very formal boyfriend, and it seems that they have been dating for a long time. Of course, he wants to see what kind of person he is.
"It's him, Jingyuan-kun~"
Mingjing Yukiko did not hide it. She pointed at Chi Jingyuan in the photo and said with a smile, "What do you think? Mina has good taste, right?"
"Looks... okay."
Mingjing Hai looked at the appearance of the man in the photo, who could not say anything derogatory even if he was of the same sex and had innate prejudices, smacked his lips, and continued to ask reluctantly: "How tall is he..."
"I think he's about 1.8 meters tall, right? MIna?" Sachiko Nai thought about it and wasn't quite sure.
"Well... now it's 184cm."
Mingjing Nan glanced at them and responded softly, without any thought or recollection.
"Um... just an idol? What's his family situation like?" The brother paused for a moment and started asking other questions.
But Mingjing Yukiko rolled her eyes at him unhappily: "Just talk about love, why are you asking this right away?"
"Of course I have to ask this. He said he was coming to visit my house, so how could I not ask?"
"If you want to ask, you're not the one to ask."
"I am worried that the conditions will be too bad and I won't be able to find it. What should I do?"
"…I'm afraid that people will look down on you."
"…What are you bragging about~"
Listening to his mother and brother discussing there, Ming Jingnan's mood unconsciously began to become depressed and sinking again. His thoughts seemed to have stepped into a swamp, becoming sticky and sticky.
If it was two months ago, she would be very happy and looking forward to her father's suggestion of "coming home for a visit". Even when she heard her father say that just now, she couldn't help but imagine the scene and picture of Chi Jingyuan visiting their home.
But now, it is impossible.
Because she deliberately did not tell her mother the truth, there is a big difference between her perception and that of her family. From the perspective of her mother and family, she is still in love.
But Ming Jingnan herself knew very well that all the sweetness and beauty before had come to an abrupt end, and she and Chi Jingyuan had been separated for almost three months.
After the initial extreme sadness and pain were gradually diluted by time, she began to deliberately avoid news about Chi Jingyuan after a period of time, not wanting to contact or hear any information about him.
However, this state only lasted for a very short period of time. By coincidence, after hearing news about Chi Jingyuan again, she found that she was not at all averse to his affairs. Instead, she was still very concerned and wanted to know how he was doing and what he was doing.
I really am not proud of myself...
Mingjing Nan also felt helpless and hopeless about herself.
But there is no way, because she is so stubborn and still immersed in memories.
Just like that, I kept paying attention despite the loss and complexity in my heart, day by day until now.
The reason why she never told the truth to her mother and family was that it was really hard to explain... She was so devoted and serious about her love, but it still ended up with such a bleak ending. How could Mingjing Nan, who had once shown her happiness and sweetness in front of her mother, say it out loud?
But the most important reason... is actually that there is a thought that has always lingered in her mind. She has always felt that there will still be opportunities in the future, and it should be possible for them to be together again.
...So she didn't want to say it now, so as not to destroy Chi Jingyuan's image in her family's mind.
But even though I thought so, when I suddenly heard my family mention it, the blocked emotions suddenly surged up.
"How's it going, Mina?"
Dad Ming Jingyang looked at Ming Jingnan, pursed his lips and asked again. He felt that this was a good opportunity.
"Well... I don't know when he will go to Osaka, and I won't know when we will go to Osaka..."
Ming Jingnan hesitated for a moment and found an excuse to refuse... She originally wanted to push the blame onto Chi Jingyuan and refuse on the grounds that he was unwilling, but after she said that, she paused and habitually put her arms around herself again.
"I... will talk about it later."
…………
After the Osaka Tourism Bureau officially announced EXO as the tourism promotion ambassadors for the summer event, it caused a lot of discussion online, and various entries and hot searches all showed a very hot trend.
As of 7 p.m. on July 5, the official SNS account had received 1000 million views, 90 likes, and more than reposts and comments.
#EXOOsakaAmbassador: No. 1 in Japan and No. 2 in the world, with 2500 million mentions.
#EXO: No. 2 in Japan, 1800 million mentions
#OsakaTourism: No. 8 in Japan, 600 million mentions
It ranked third in global trends and third in Japanese hot searches, but ranked first in hot searches in China, the Peninsula, and several Asian countries. At the same time, related search terms such as "Osaka EXO", "Tenjin Festival", and "Fireworks Festival" became the top 3 search terms in many countries.
EXO's amazing popularity on the Internet was fully demonstrated at this moment. With just a simple official announcement, and even before any related promotional work and promotional songs had started, the news seemed to have been known to most of the world. Osaka and Osaka's summer festival, which were originally only known within a certain range, appeared in front of everyone in an instant.
This extremely high coverage and discussion is amazing.
This is exactly the effect that the Osaka Tourism Bureau wants, and it is also an important reason why they are most interested in EXO, a boy band from the peninsula.
However, upon closer inspection, the overall response on the Internet shows a polarized trend.
Overseas, including the Peninsula, the mainland, Southeast Asia and other places, the response has been very good. EXO fans have shown their well-deserved support and enthusiasm, and many passers-by have also shown a positive attitude because of EXO's fame and related factors. At least a considerable number of them have become interested in Osaka.
However, if the scene turns back to Japan, a very fierce conflict is presented on the Japanese side. Fans expressed warm welcome, but most Japanese passers-by and related people expressed doubts and indignation. Some people even raised their voices and shouted slogans such as "Osaka doesn't need Kpop" to boycott the news.
Although EXO was chosen as tourism ambassadors in order to attract guests from the peninsula and East Asia, and was originally targeted at foreign tourists, the sudden fierce competition in the local area is something that the Osaka Tourism Bureau cannot ignore.
And it’s actually not a good thing for EXO. They cooperate with the Tourism Bureau to serve as tourism ambassadors, not really to contribute to the local area, but to better integrate into the Japanese market for better development in the future.
Fortunately, such radical people are still a very small minority, and most people are still in a state of questioning and rational waiting and watching.
If the publicity is effective, then it means that Osaka is a wise place, and EXO is indeed very popular.
If the effect is very poor and there is no response at all... then there will naturally be backlash.
Now that they have cooperated and officially announced it, they naturally have to keep going. In addition to carrying out various supporting promotions, the Osaka Tourism Bureau is now waiting for the first wave of promotional songs to be released and see the subsequent response.
…………
After being officially announced as ambassadors, EXO only stayed in Osaka for one day, cooperated with some interviews and filming, and then returned to Seoul overnight.
There will be a family concert of SMTWON at the World Cup Stadium in Mapo District, Seoul on July 7th. EXO has not participated in group rehearsals before, so they have to hurry back to practice their own performances.
These days, Japan seems to be very hot because of the presence of Twice and EXO, which seems to be a sign of the revival of the Korean wave.
The situation on the peninsula is no less exciting. There have been all kinds of news recently, and the group's comeback has been very hot.
The most discussed and most popular topic in recent days is Wanna One, who have not yet debuted. Since the end of "101 Season ", the agency has never stopped packaging and warming up for them, releasing news every two days to whet the appetite of fans.
Recently, a large wave of materials has appeared. Within just a few days, various news about Wanna One came one after another, including the release of resume photos of all members, the announcement of the reserve captain, the start of filming a reality show, and the official announcement of the endorsement of HITE Jinro.
They haven't debuted yet, and even the debut date hasn't been confirmed, but they have already become a big trend. They are very popular in the Peninsula. Every piece of news can attract fans' enthusiasm and the attention of passers-by. In terms of popularity, they even overshadow EXO, which is not in the Peninsula and has been absent for nearly a year.
A boy band that has not debuted yet is already a TOP group on par with EXO in the eyes of their fans. Even at the very least, it is still the 'second boy band'. I wonder what the fans of other boy bands' expressions were after seeing this.
And Wanna One's agency is obviously well aware of the way to popularity. Wanna One has been involved in controversy in the past two days. A few days ago, the agency YMC officially announced Wanna One's official cheering color and cheering hand gesture, but it immediately caused controversy.
Because Wanna One's cheering gesture is very similar to NCT's, and the cheering color is even more amazing, almost exactly the same as Seventeen's.
No one knows whether it was intentional or not, but as soon as the news came out, it instantly caused a fierce battle between fans of both sides, and the argument became heated on the Internet.
In the past, Ai Li, who was always involved in fights, suddenly realized that such a lively incident had nothing to do with them. She could only blink at the two fans fighting with each other, watching from the side with some discomfort and skillfully fanning the flames.
In addition to the boy band, there is another person who has been very popular in the entertainment industry recently, and that is Lee Hyori.
This former top female singer has been out of news since she got married, but she has suddenly reappeared recently and is very popular on Peninsula. In addition to returning to the music scene after four years, she also released her sixth full-length album.
Although the songs in this album...are not very outstanding.
But in addition to the album, she also teamed up with her husband to organize a variety show called "Hyori's Homestay", and also invited popular singer IU to be a guest, which caused a lot of discussion.
This variety show is surprisingly popular. The first episode, which premiered at the end of June, topped the list of variety shows in the same period with a 6% audience rating. After IU appeared in the second episode, it set a new record and the topicality reached its highest value. It is the most popular and talked-about variety show in recent times.
Lee Hyori and her husband easily achieved what professional comedians could not achieve even if they tried their best.
I don’t know whether the former national fairy still has the same charm, or Lee Hyori is a buried variety talent, or IU is the most popular...
In addition, in addition to many girl groups around July, including APink, BALCKPINK, and MAMAMOO, red velvlet, who had been absent for many days, finally released its summer special album "The Red Summer" on July 7 after many days of preparation and releasing multiple versions of member concept photos.
The music scene is actually quite interesting recently. Many popular girl groups have returned to compete for space and popularity, and the title songs of several groups are rare high-quality hits, such as Mamamoo's "Yes I Am" and Blackpink's "As If It's Your Last".
However, with so many girl groups' songs bursting out, the music charts were all dominated by female singer Heize. Heize firmly occupied the first place in all music charts with her new song "It's Still Raining", completely suppressing a group of girl groups.
Now that red velvlet has announced their comeback and joined the battle, I wonder if they can compete for the girl group contestants in terms of music sources... But Chi Jingyuan is not very optimistic about them. He thinks Heize's new song "It's Still Raining" is really good.
And…it’s been raining in Seoul these past few days.
In addition to these, there is another piece of news that has attracted the attention and excitement of many passers-by and long-awaited sones.
On July 7, as they are about to celebrate their 8th anniversary, SM Entertainment finally announced that Girls' Generation will make a full comeback in August and will release their sixth full album.
I will update later tomorrow.
