"That's pretty much it. I'll leave first then."

Chi Kyung-won said goodbye with a smile and walked out of the lounge where Lee Hong-ki, who needed to be interviewed today and had just finished reading the script, turned around and walked a few steps, stopped at the door of Girls' Generation's TTS lounge, and knocked on the door.

That's right, these sisters are here again. TTS released the team's special Christmas album "Dear Santa" today to announce their return, and the time is tight. The trailer was released the day before yesterday, the concept photo was released yesterday, and the album will be released today.

Returning and performing on the first stage at the same time, every second counts.

Maybe it was the influence of last year that made all the members feel relieved, or maybe it was the conditions for renewing the contract last year. Girls' Generation has really made a lot of moves throughout this year, from the group to the sub-unit to the members' solos, almost without interruption.

However, the album configuration is also very good, and there are also supporting promotional activities such as various groups and concerts interspersed in the middle, so the resources are quite abundant.

Especially for Kim Taeyeon, Ji Kyung-won can't even count how many times she has returned this year. It feels like she has been able to see her once every few days since he hosted "Music Bank."

From the middle to the end of the year, it is no worse than EXO in the first half of the year.

"Please come in." At the same time as there was a response from inside, the door was opened by the assistant inside. As soon as Chi Jingyuan walked in and showed his head, the voices of Kim Taeyeon and Huang Meiying immediately rang:

"Jingyuan is here!"

"Look at the time, you're almost here. We were talking about you just now. Come here...sit down!"

Chi Jingyuan is already very familiar with the three people from TTS, as well as their assistants and managers. They just went out to eat together a few days ago when Mama was there. There was nothing polite at this time. None of the sisters said hello formally.

The meaning and tone seemed quite casual.

At this time, there were many people in the waiting room. The assistant managers were sitting nearby and were busy. Kim Taeyeon and Huang Meiying were playing with their mobile phones on the sofa. Seohyun was still sitting in front of the mirror, being put on makeup by being fucked. When he saw Chi Jingyuan

Then she paused for a moment, smiled and waved in the direction of the mirror's reflection.

Kim Taeyeon, who was sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed, quickly waved to him and asked Chi Jingyuan to come over and sit down. However, he first handed over the script and interview words in his hand to TTS's agent and asked him to confirm whether there was anything inappropriate.

, then walked to the sofa and sat down, taking advantage of the situation and looking around.

The sitting postures of these sisters are a bit unflattering in private, but because they will be pre-recording the stage later, the stage outfits they have put on at this time are really pretty. The three of them are wearing blue starlight skirts with suspenders.

The fluffy design is still made of goose down material, which looks elegant and has a mysterious starry sky feel. Although they are all covered with thick coats and blankets to keep warm, they are still bright and a little dazzling.

I feel that the skirt is more beautiful than the person.

After chatting casually for a few words, Kim Taeyeon seemed to remember something, raised her head and asked in surprise: "Why are you alone, Irene?"

"I'm the only one today. Ledbebe has an overseas trip, so she didn't come."

Your reaction is really slow... Chi Jingyuan complained in his heart and gave a brief explanation.

Today red velvet has a Kpop concert held in Prague. After Mama returned to Seoul, he flew to the Czech Republic with the team. Naturally, Bae Zhuhyun was absent from today's recording.

The lineup of this concert is average. The only big-name artist is Shee. The leader Onew didn't go for some reason. But I heard that compared to the concert performance, this performance has a strong zz and diplomatic meaning because the whole team is

I followed the female lead from Peninsula.

The interview script was very simple. With the level and experience of these ladies, there was basically no problem after just reading it twice. After finishing the script and chatting for a few words, Huang Meiying received a call, said hello and walked out.

Upon seeing this, Chi Jingyuan was about to say goodbye and leave. Kim Taeyeon stood up and walked him to the door. After waving her hands and saying goodbye, she seemed to think of something again: "By the way, if you don't have time for the new album this time... give me a name."

, let’s participate in the song selection in a few days.”

This time, Kim Taeyeon's solo debut with "i" can be said to be very successful. The sound source is excellent, and the sales have exploded. Especially the quality of several songs including the title song, both among fans and in the industry

The reputation and evaluation among professionals are very good, and many fans even directly gave "i" the title of 'the best solo debut song'.

After a good start, Kim Taeyeon made a direct and successful transformation, and her identity as a solo singer was confirmed. SM immediately struck while the iron was hot. The promotion period of "i" has just ended, and Girls' Generation has not yet made its next comeback.

When filming, I had already started planning Taeyeon's next solo album.

There has been a successful collaboration, and of course Kim Taeyeon wants him to continue to direct the new album. Unfortunately, Ji Kyung-won's main job is still idol, and EXO itself is very busy. Recently, he has also taken on a TV series, so I took the time to help produce one or two songs.

It's okay, but I really don't have time to be the producer of all aspects of an entire album.

Moreover, he doesn’t have any songs that are suitable for female solo singers, and he is not very good at writing girl group songs.

And after the success of "i", he is not very willing to be the main producer of Taeyeon's new album. If he continues to work on it, he will feel like becoming her exclusive producer. This feeling of binding is weird.

, and became an exclusive producer. If the album does not perform well and does not meet expectations, it will actually affect my personal relationship if I quit.

So he declined it before.

However, after one cooperation, Kim Taeyeon felt deeply about Ji Kyung-won's abilities and various inspirations. She always felt that without this name involved, she felt uneasy, so even if she couldn't be a producer, she still wanted to

Let him get involved a little bit.

"Choose songs by name? Okay..." Chi Jingyuan didn't refuse after hearing this. There was nothing wrong with this kind of thing. He nodded and agreed: "Then I'll leave first. Then Nu, you can follow me.

Let the company tell you."

"bye……"

After bidding farewell to Kim Taeyeon, Chi Kyung-won went to several lounges and communicated with several artists about today's recording process before returning to the MC waiting room a little tired, sitting down on the sofa and exhaling for a long time.

tone.

"Well……"

He felt a little bit like how he felt when Pei Zhuhyun hosted the show alone when he was absent from the previous episodes.

I never felt anything special before, but after running around today, I got some ideas.

This "Music Bank", hosted by one person, is really boring...

…………

"What are you talking about?"

In EXO's dormitory at night, Chi Jingyuan, who had just taken a shower, walked out refreshed and wiped his head with a towel. Although it was almost midnight, he was still not sleepy at this time. As soon as he came out, he saw someone in the living room.

Several other members who also didn't want to sleep were arguing about something, so they couldn't help but leaned over and asked casually.

For many idols, the period after twelve o'clock is the most energetic.

"We are sorting the appearance of the female artists in our company..." Park Chanyeol turned to look at him and gave a quick introduction, then turned to him and shouted loudly like a seasoned player: "Looking at looks is not enough.

The overall appearance definitely depends on your figure. Compared to Lin Yoona, I still think Yuri is better looking..."

“Do you still need to question YoonA-senpai’s appearance?”

"I think Taeyeon is the prettiest..."

"Shirley and Krystal, neither of them said anything."

"Irene, she has a very outstanding face, even Jingyuan said she is good-looking..."

When SM artists discuss this topic on the show, they usually bring up .S's Yoo Jin, Boa, etc. to show respect for their seniors, but when EXO talks about this, no one will mention these seniors.

They were still children when the seniors were in their prime, and they are no longer of the same era.

"qi~"

Hearing that this topic was coming up again, Chi Jingyuan curled his lips and felt a little disdainful.

They had talked about similar topics many times when they were free, but Chi Jingyuan found it uninteresting after participating in it a few times.

What's the use of just discussing it? You can't interact with each other...

After standing there laughing and cursing for a few times and voting for his idol YoonA-senpai, Chi Kyung-won walked back to the dormitory, sat down on the bed and picked up his phone. Suddenly, he found a text message from Bae Joo-hyun just now. Check the time.

It was sent to him when he just took a shower.

I took a pillow and leaned against the wall. I unlocked it and opened it. I saw a dining table filled with food, followed by several close-up photos of the food.

The first thing that caught my attention was the photo of a plate of roasted pork knuckles. The skin of the brightly colored pork knuckles is golden with a rich orange-red color. The meat has distinct layers and is neither mushy nor burnt. It drips from the gaps. The whole body is shiny and makes people salivate.

Chi Jingyuan was stunned for a long time. He glanced at the photo of roasted pork knuckle with some reluctance, and then he scrolled down again, followed by beef stew, roast pork, potato chips, and cheese.

Photos of dishes with names.

Calculating the time difference, it is almost two o'clock in the morning in Seoul. According to Brack, it is almost six or seven o'clock. I can guess that Red Velvet should have finished his meal just now.

Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but smacked his lips after looking at it.

The young lady is really good at taking pictures, and she actually showed him that she was hungry...

There was no direct reply. After thinking for a while, Chi Jingyuan took his cell phone and yelled in the direction of the living room outside: "Is anyone ordering takeout?"

"Yes, I've been hungry for a long time."

"I want it too... I'll order some. What do you want to eat..."

Perhaps he was so hungry that he was not alone. Chi Jingyuan's suggestion was immediately supported by many members. Of course, Jin Junmian refused and prepared to treat him.

"Whatever, barbecue or something." After Chi Jingyuan shouted outside again, he sat on the bed contentedly, picked up the phone again, and replied to Pei Zhuxuan:

"Eating so well?"

Just when he was about to discuss what to order with the members, his cell phone suddenly rang.

The young lady called directly.

Seeing that the caller had no name, Chi Jingyuan paused, gave up the idea, put on his slippers and some clothes, walked towards the balcony next to him, closed the door and answered the phone.

The temperature in Seoul has dropped sharply since December, and has been hovering around zero recently. At this time, Chi Jingyuan walked from the air-conditioned room to the balcony, especially after closing the sliding door to completely cut off the heat behind him.

Immediately, he felt a refreshing coldness lingering around him. Even though Chi Jingyuan was wearing a thick coat, he still couldn't help but shiver slightly.

"Don't stop it..."
