Volume 4 2012 Chapter 851 Yi Haoyan’s Praise
"Eh? The heyday?"
"What do you mean? Didn't we reach the summit a long time ago?"
"We only topped the list in South Korea and Japan, but the United States is still far behind, right? "
"So what does this heyday mean?"
Quan Yuri and Tiffany looked at Yi Haoyan, confused. Not only them, but others also didn't understand.
"This needs to be considered in conjunction with Girls' Generation's own positioning."
Yi Haoyan explained patiently.
"SM's commercial idols are essentially based on their personalities, which is fundamentally different from YG, which are more like singers with unique styles. Before Girls' Generation became famous, songs and performances were a means to attract fans. At this stage, the quality and style of the songs were very important, mainly to attract fans and increase popularity through songs and performances. Of course, songs that suit Girls' Generation's own style can achieve twice the result with half the effort, and "Gee" is such a song.
“But after Girls’ Generation reached the top, it was no longer necessary and it was difficult to do. Because at that time, you were already completely famous, and too many people knew about the charm of Girls’ Generation through songs, variety shows and other platforms. At this time, the songs were actually not that important. What was important was whether the fans could see the Girls’ Generation they wanted to see through the performance.
"If we say that Girls' Generation was used to show the charm of the songs themselves before, then now the situation is reversed. The songs must serve the image of Girls' Generation itself, and the songs and stages are tools made to show the charm of Girls' Generation. To put it simply, it is the difference between the singer who shows the charm of the song and the song that shows the charm of the singer. Now the song production revolves around the singer herself. Basically, it has been the case since "The Boys"."
Although it was a bit confusing, the girls from Girls' Generation all understood it.
This is actually the final form of SM company's idols.
Fans don’t come to listen to the songs of these idols, but just to see the idols’ more charming image and charm through the stage.
The song is just a platform and a bond that binds fans and idols more closely.
Simply put, it refers to the state where a person becomes famous by making his song famous.
"That makes sense, but if that's the case, aren't we restricted by our own image?"
Speaking of the issue of character setting, Taeyeon and Tiffany, who have always wanted to be singers, suddenly thought of this issue.
"It's like this, once an idol puts on a mask, it's impossible to take it off. Fans have determined what you are like, so it's basically impossible for you to make any big breakthroughs, especially for relatively orthodox idols like Girls' Generation. For example, if you want to do something very out-of-the-ordinary like 2NE1 or 4Minute, it's unlikely because it's too different from your personal image."
Yi Haoyan was very sure.
"And isn't this situation good? The styling of Nunas in this comeback stage is completely charming. With this kind of image, even if it is restricted, it is still happiness! How many idols can achieve this level!"
"Haha! Are you really that excited?"
"It's so rare to hear him say anything nice! He's always so venomous!"
"That's right. That's right."
"Well, it's our heyday after all, so it's reasonable to charm a little man~"
"Ah! Tiffany! What are you talking about!"
"Ah, ah, ah! Secretary Huang, you are not allowed to talk about anything that is 19+!"
"Why not? There are no minors here. Haoyan has become an adult this year~"
Tiffany twitched her eyebrows, looking very proud. The American girl's straightforwardness was clearly visible.
"Ah! That's enough!"
Jessica is also from the United States, but she is not as outspoken as she is.
"What's the big deal? We're all adults now, there's nothing wrong with talking about it."
Tiffany dodged Jessica's slaps and smiled as she asked Yi Haoyan to continue.
"Haoyan, tell me, which of Nuna's looks do you like?"
"Ahem, this time, the three nuns on the stage look the best in my opinion."
Yi Haoyan kept the secret.
"Oh? Who are they?"
"I bet there's Jessica."
"Well, he's a fan of Xica, so she must be one of them."
"That's right, I'll praise Xika every time."
“It’s definitely not Yoona.”
"Hahaha."
“Do you have to be so real?”
"Yeah! Although it's not that rare, why can't I be there?"
Yoona couldn't stand it anymore.
"With the relationship between you two, it would be strange to choose you, right?"
"What does a bad relationship have to do with stage appearance? Is there anything wrong with my appearance? I am the face of Girls' Generation! Who else can you look at if not me?"
The facade is also something to be proud of.
“Ohhh, Yoongi is serious.”
"She's anxious, she's anxious, hahahaha."
"If you don't believe me, just listen to what Haoyan says and see if he chooses you."
"snort."
Hearing what the sisters said, Lin Menmian glared at the boy fiercely, as if in protest.
However, Yi Haoyan is not the kind of person who will be threatened.
"The performances that impressed me the most were Yuri Noona, Tiffany Noona and Jessica Noona. Wow, their looks were so beautiful, totally charming."
“Hahaha, as expected, Yoona is not there.”
"This is simply a slap in the face~"
"Oh, it was Yoona who wanted to put her face over there. I tried to persuade her but it didn't work."
"Ouni!"
"Stop talking, Yoona will be mad to death if you keep talking."
"Ah! You are really too much. Even if you don't like me, you should at least be reasonable. Is there anything wrong with my look?"
As expected, Yoona exploded and directly questioned Yi Haoyan.
"Uh, there's nothing wrong with it, it's just not as dazzling as Yuri Nu."
The boy blinked, looking a little innocent.
"Oh my, you actually used the word dazzling."
"Ah! Kwon Yuri! This is the first time he has praised you. It really is your heyday, hahaha."
"Really? Why do I suddenly feel like crying?"
Kwon Yuri was also very cooperative and looked inexplicably touched.
Everyone else burst out laughing.
"You're being unfair. I'm not good, but what's wrong with me? I may not be as good at dancing as Unnie, but I'm not bad either. What else is wrong with me?"
Yoona still refused to give in.
Anyway, she would be like this when she met Yi Haoyan, always a little emotional.
Maybe the resentment between the two people is too deep.
"Hmm~"
The boy looked at her helplessly and gave Yoona a reason that she couldn't refuse.
"Yuri is darker than you."
"Puchi~"
Taeyeon burst out laughing.
"ah!"
The emotion that Kwon Yuri just felt was frozen on her face, which looked very funny.
"Hahaha! What kind of excuse is that?"
"That's right, what kind of reason is that?"
Yoona also totally disagreed.
"I'm not making this up, this is the real reason."
Yi Haoyan explained calmly.
"Although this song takes the preferences of the Asian market into consideration, it is essentially an American street hip-hop style song. Among the nine members of Girls' Generation, only Yuri Noona's skin color, temperament and stage style are closest to the pure American hip-hop style. Her cool and sexy charm and powerful dance style are not comparable to Yoona Noona, and you are too white..."
"you!"
Now Yoona was speechless.
"Besides, I remember that before her debut, Yuri had filmed a commercial with senior Jang Dong-gun, and her appearance was not much worse than yours."
The boy has something else to say.
"Besides her dark skin, her body that easily gains weight, her singing out of tune, her dancing forgetting her moves, and her sometimes looking a bit silly, how is Yuri worse than you?"
"Ah! Are you praising me? Haha!!!"
Kwon Yuri was at a loss whether to laugh or cry for a moment.
"Hahaha! I knew it!"
"Wow, that's amazing, sending two away at once."
Sunny clapped and sighed.
"As expected of you."
"Besides Yuri Nuna, Jessica Nuna is also absolutely dazzling!"
Yi Haoyan hasn't finished speaking yet.
"The long straight blond hair with a middle part and a studded hairpin is so sweet, fierce, and a little handsome. Jessica is really at the peak of her looks now ! Ace is Ace. Not only does she sing well, dance well, and have a good figure, but her looks and styles are also versatile. She is indeed my favorite idol!"
“Hehehe!”
Jessica covered her mouth and laughed secretly because of his praise.
"That's enough! You always flatter me. Did Jessica pay you?"
"That's right, when they praise us, they are either very stingy or they are the opposite, and they only say nice things to Xika. Do you have any moral integrity at all?"
"Oh my! Don't you still have me? You just keep praising her. Am I not pretty good too? Talk about me!"
Tiffany was dissatisfied. It was clearly mentioned that she had the best look, but in the end only Jessica was praised. This made the career-oriented Huang Miying very dissatisfied.
"Oh, Miyoung Nunah, this time the star decorations and the costumes look a lot like Jessica Nunah, so that's good."
“Pfft~~Hahahaha!”
"It's so, so miserable. She was praised because she looks like Jessica. She's not even as good as Yuri!"
"Ah! That's enough!"
Tiffany was also extremely angry.
