Chapter 227 Why Are You Crying?
Zheng Xiuheng didn't feel anything about those messages, after all, his focus was on the last part of the program. However, Lee Hyori was very unhappy because after the last episode was broadcast, no one said that her acting was good. Some media did brag about it, but most of the messages on the message board just said that Lee Hyori was beautiful. Only fans said that her acting was really good. Many others said that it was not suitable and awkward. Of course, there were also people who said that it was awkward to be the MC with Yoo Jae Suk.
However, Lee Hyori felt that the climax should be today, so of course she had to stay tuned for the live broadcast, but she was also very nervous. This sister doesn't care about anything else, but what makes Zheng Xiuheng speechless is that privately, Lee Hyori cares a lot about other people's evaluation of her acting skills, even more than her singing skills. Zheng Xiuheng doesn't know what to do.
Soon it was half past six, and "Infinite Challenge" officially started broadcasting, followed by the main drama of last week. The three women, one big and two small, were staring at the TV intently at this moment, and their concentration made Zheng Xiuheng feel ashamed.
“Boom boom!”
"Xiu-jung, go open the door!"
“Hah!”
Because there was a knock on the door, Zheng Xiuheng looked around for a long time and no one moved, so he immediately turned around and called out. Zheng Xiujing came to her senses, looked at her brother's dark face, and hurried to open the door.
Zheng Xiuheng sighed and looked back while cutting vegetables. When he saw Han Ga-in in a long skirt walking into the living room with a smile on her face, Zheng Xiuheng's face became even darker.
As a neighbor who often visits, Han Ga-in of course got to know the little girls. After saying hello, she glanced at Zheng Xiuheng in the kitchen. She originally wanted to help, but when she saw the other three sitting in a row on the sofa, and learned that the song sung by Zheng Xiuheng would be played on the show, the ending was... four people sat in a row on the sofa.
"Why!"
Zheng Xiuheng sighed in his heart, no longer paying attention to the two adults and two children outside, and concentrated on being a chef.
"So I am the hero of the TV series?"
"The conditions are similar. A chaebol, an imported car, or someone who has studied abroad... It would be perfect if he could play the piano for me here!"
"Since I'm the hero, it seems I have to do what I have to do!"
On TV, Lee Hyori was sitting on the other side of the dining table, watching Jung Joon-ha's audition for the role of the second-generation chaebol and speaking jokingly with a puzzled expression.
Finally, Zheng Junhe smiled confidently and then stood up.
In fact, the original script was not like this, but because Lee Hyori asked the production team for help with her cousin before filming, a lot of changes were made in the end. The final scene was changed from the club to a high-end Western restaurant, and the restaurant owner was a good friend of Jung Joon-ha. The three chatted for a while and talked about the topic of the protagonist of the TV series, which led to Jung Joon-ha's piano solo.
In fact, because Zheng Xiuheng's performance that day was so attractive, the production team has been struggling with how to insert this part. At first, they planned to use the more lyrical music played by Lee Hyo-ri's cousin, so that he could be a substitute for Zheng Junhe. But Zheng Xiuheng sang a song. He sang very well and there was nothing wrong with it. But he sang about separation, which was so sad and full of emotions. It would be a pity if this was not used. If it was used, what about Zheng Junhe's solo? After all, this song does not fit the plot of confession.
After a long struggle, Kim Tae-ho and the writers decided to cut out the first part and save that part for the end. Then Jung Soo-heng came to him. After Jung Soo-heng convinced Kim Tae-ho, he came up with an idea after discussing it with the writers.
In the original plot, Lee Hyori was reminded of the male lead Yoo Jae-suk because of Jung Joon-ha's performance, and this time it was just right to use the performance of the pianist in the western restaurant to complete this plot. Because Jung Soo-heng's suggestion was accepted, the character of Kang Bi-joo also has a monologue and performance at the end.
"Snowball, are you sure that Xiuheng-senpai can sing?"
In the SM restaurant, there were several girls sitting together. The company had already announced the debut plan of Girls' Generation, and the time was finally confirmed to be August. Before that, there was also a "debut record" program under negotiation. Now, except for Sulli, basically all the girls sitting here were artists who were about to debut.
So generally speaking, unless you are a trainee who has a good relationship with everyone, you will not squeeze into this group. Maybe the person concerned will not have any thoughts, but many people will regard it as currying favor. It is very common for trainees to stick together, and many of those with less ability are called thigh-clinging.
Choi Sulli nodded and replied expectantly, "Well, it was Soojung who sent me a text message and told me to stay tuned for the live broadcast. It shouldn't be wrong, right?"
When Kim Taeyeon heard the affirmative answer, her expression showed some expectation and happiness. Lin Yoona and Choi Sooyoung, who were standing beside her, didn't know which senior the two were talking about, and asked curiously.
After this period of adjustment, the relationship between these girls has improved a lot. Although they cannot be said to be close, they can be considered ordinary friends. Therefore, they talk more when they get together. At the same time, the nine of them also discussed that before their debut, they should spend more time in group activities, such as eating, and after finishing training, they should not leave alone, but go back to the dormitory together.
Although there were some members who were not used to it at the beginning, they gradually got used to it after two or three weeks, which indeed accelerated the team's running-in.
After hearing Yoona's question, Huang Miying and Kim Taeyeon on the side did not respond. They both looked at Zheng Xiuyan who was eating in silence, because they knew that there were problems in their sibling relationship, and it might be impolite to talk about Zheng Xiuheng in front of her.
Lee Sunkyu, seeing that the two were speechless and that Yoona and Choi Sooyoung were curious, smiled and explained, "It's the senior that Hyoyeon and the others met in the game room last time!"
"Ah, is that the senior who is good at fighting? Snowball knows that senior?" Lin Yoona suddenly asked excitedly. Although that competition caused Park Injeong and Lee Hwan-hee to withdraw, the situation told by Kwon Yuri and Kim Hyoyeon also frightened these innocent girls.
However, after hearing the word "fight", Kim Taeyeon carefully noticed that Jessica Jung on the opposite side was holding the chopsticks very tightly in her right hand, and her face did not look very good. Thinking of the conflict between her and senior Jessica Jung, and the time when Jessica Jung went to find Jessica Jung crying and said that she didn't want her brother to do anything dangerous, Kim Taeyeon seemed to understand something.
"Since I'm the hero, it seems I have to do what I have to do!"
The TV on the wall was broadcasting the scene where the second male lead was about to play the piano, but at this time the picture shifted to the center of the restaurant. A pianist in a black suit appeared through a long lens, but because the filming was very sudden, there was no deliberate lighting, and the camera was not zoomed in. In addition, due to Zheng Xiuheng's personal wishes, only his side profile could be seen on the screen, and his appearance was not very clear.
At this moment, very light and soft notes sounded, with a hint of sadness, attracting the girls who were about to say something, or rather, the attention of many people in the restaurant was attracted.
Kim Taeyeon didn't bother to think about Jessica Jung anymore, but shifted all her attention to the man sitting sideways in front of the piano.
And Jessica Jung was instinctively attracted to him. Although the camera was far away, Jessica Jung recognized the man at a glance. Her dead eyes suddenly shook.
"Say goodbye to her
Like saying goodbye to the autumn birds
Farewell to her
Come back and sit in front of the wine glass
Tears will flow
…
Farewell to her
Looking at the fading stars
No results
Tears fall day by day
Painful love
Can you forget…"
People who are familiar with the song and girls who have heard this voice immediately recognized who was singing. It was just like Zheng Xiuheng's voice when he speaks, a little low, but with rich emotions, just like the warmth transmitted through the radio, it was full of emotions, but this time the voice was deeper and more ordinary, everything was revealed so faintly, the faint piano sound, the faint singing, the faint sadness, it just naturally caught the ears of the audience.
The screen is dancing with the memories of Lee Hyori and Yoo Jae-seok, the male and female protagonists, accompanied by Zheng Xiuheng's singing, as if the pain of separation is approaching the two. Only occasionally the screen jumps to the restaurant and Zheng Junhe, and you will find that his expression is very strange, like pain, like memories. In the eyes of the audience, it seems that they already know the ending of the story...
"I hope we don't come into this world because of love again
I wish I could bury the words I miss
Love without results
Love that is too painful is not love
I hope that love that is too painful is not love..."
With faint sobs, this amazing song ended and the plot returned to normal. Lee Hyori came to her senses and chose to refuse, leaving Jung Joon-ha alone.
Yoo Jae-suk was also running in the heavy rain, trying to get his lover back. Amid the soft music and the sound of rain, the male protagonist, who had always been difficult to get into the role, suddenly became very handsome.
It's just that at this moment many viewers are recalling the song that was just played. This is a song that is well-known to Koreans, but not a song that everyone likes. But this time, apart from the slight sadness, the singing is very ordinary. But the strange thing is that this ordinariness seems to have flowed into the hearts of many people, especially some middle-aged viewers who are watching the show, their eyes are full of memories. Although this voice is ordinary, it seems to have eliminated the boundaries of time. This is a song that most people will like, because... there is no distance.
But not everyone heard the same thing. Jessica stared at the TV blankly, but her vision could no longer focus and gradually became blurry...
The distance was so far, so far away. Tears slowly rolled down her eyes. Jessica Jung saw that figure moving away from her, just as she had expected. He would no longer appear in front of her as always in the past. She would no longer see that handsome face that was worried about her, nor would she see his tenderness again.
