147: Dinghai Shenyou

“As expected of BP, it hasn't even been two hours since the release, and they've already blatantly claimed the number one spot on the real-time charts. Amazing!”

“Red Velvet next door is also very good, but they had bad luck running into a big devil like BP and got trampled again. Pitiful.jpg”

“Are you here to divert traffic? Talking about Red Velvet on BP's turf, really. Get out.”

“I absolutely love the styling in this MV. Can someone with fast hands help me screenshot Jennie biting her lip? I love it so much!”

“I love Jennie so much. I really want a girl like her for a wife. Tsk tsk tsk!”

“I love this song so much. The chorus is great. Lisa's baby voice is so cute, and Rose's honey vocals. When will she solo? I'm super excited.”

“Yes, yes, yes! I also think the chorus is ultimately, incredibly, explosively good! I love this song so much.”

“Holy cow, the instrumental is so alluring. Rose's voice is truly stunning, so smooth! Every time she changes her hairstyle, she looks beautiful in a new way. I love it!”

“I never thought Rose would look so good with bangs! Her eyes are sparkling and so beautiful.”

“Confessing my love for Kim Ji-soo, the part where she's playing with magnets is so adorable. I want to go up and bite her, woah~”

“Kim Ji-soo! If you want to play with bottles, I have so, so many bottles here. Will you come with me? Please!”

“Jisoo has such a great figure! I can never get tired of looking at her face. I love her to death!”

“Lisa with the marshmallows is too cute. She's melting my girlish heart. Oh, I can't handle it!”

“Rose! Why are you on the floor again? No! It was changed to lying down. Did Kim Ji-soo and the others change it because they were afraid of wardrobe malfunctions?”

“Seeking Chaeyoung's perspective. Horny.jpg”

“Only you can spot the blind spots. This song is estimated to become a hit. As expected of our producer Zoe, it's just a pity she didn't participate in the comeback.”

“No need to estimate, it's already a hit. The click-through rate is soaring. I strongly suggest changing back to the original double title tracks. One song is a bit too little!”

“Lisa's part is really super catchy. My mind is full of her adorable little baby voice.”

The dense barrage of comments on the MV proved its popularity. The four of them felt incredibly pleased watching it; they weren't afraid of bad comments, only no comments at all.

“Zoe! How was it? Are the four of us okay?” Seeing the excellent results, Kim Ji-soo felt incredibly refreshed.

“Very good. And I'm now sure that a new version of the MV is indeed unnecessary. This version is great. Making another one would be gilding the lily.”

“Hey! We already agreed, how can you go back on your word?” Park Chaeyoung was quite displeased; a comeback without Xu Zhiyou felt incomplete.

“It's comeback season now, and results are very important. If we shoot another version, how will the results be calculated? Don't do something that shoots yourself in the foot, that's foolish.”

“That's true!” She hadn't thought of that. Doing so would make it feel a bit incongruous. “Then we'll find an opportunity to shoot it later, is that okay?”

“What do you three think?”

Whatever decision Xu Zhiyou made, Kim Ji-soo was always the first to agree. “I have no problem. You're the leader, I'll listen to you.”

“Us too!” Kim Jennie and Lisa quickly followed suit.

“Alright then! No more MV shooting, that's how it is. We'll talk about it after your promotions are over. Call me when you participate in variety shows.”

“Where are you going?”

“I'm going home! I still have things to deal with at home. Anyway, you all are busy, so I'll take this opportunity to handle some things.”

Park Chaeyoung could probably guess the reason for her hurried return. “Alright then! I'll call you then. Remember to come back early.”

“I'm leaving. Call me if something comes up, don't bother me if nothing does.”

Park Chaeyoung was furious. “Hey! What do you mean? Are you looking down on us?”

“Looking down on your big head! Let me rest for a few days to recharge so I can come back as a corporate slave, so don't bother me if nothing's happening.”

She rode her motorcycle to the airport. If she got there early, she could still go home for a late-night snack. She also had to go fishing the next day, very busy.

Kim Jennie also didn't believe it. What could Xu Zhiyou be busy with now that she was back? Everyone knew each other. “Jisoo, is she really busy?”

“Busy with what! She just wants to be lazy. Let her be. Anyway, she's not going for the music shows, and we won't have time for variety shows for a while, so let's just leave it at that!”

“I knew it! Lies just spill out of her mouth, no morals at all.”

“Alright, Chaeyoung! She'll be back in a few days. It's normal to want to stay home for a while after spending half a year abroad.”

“Jisoo, I know! Otherwise, would I have let her go?”

The internet was bustling after the sound source results and MV release.

“It was worth the long wait. I now understand why YG made Jennie the ACE; without Zoe throughout, she's the most eye-catching.”

“I also feel that way. Before, when Zoe was around, all eyes were on her. Now I realize that all four of them are also very radiant.”

“I don't know what Old Yang is thinking. Zoe is clearly a chosen solo artist, but he insists on putting her in a group, which not only limits her own development but also overshadows others.”

“Get lost, are you a hater from next door? How is she overshadowing? Has any of the four of them been left behind?”

“Exactly! Where did you see Zoe overshadowing them? Speak with a conscience. JYP's Bae Suzy and her backup dancers next door are what you call overshadowing. The five of them all have the same popularity now, don't talk nonsense.”

“Believe me! Without Zoe, BP might be very popular, but the hardships involved would increase many times over. Don't talk about overshadowing or not overshadowing; it's easy to get flamed by her fans.”

“Actually! Just the halo of the Juilliard School alone has silenced so many people. The positioning as a creative girl group also reduces reliance on the company. You should be content.”

“No wonder her fans support her leaving the group. They haven't seen any beneficial factors for her in the group, only a lot of doubts. It's not worth it.”

“Hey, hey, hey! I told you it's a troll from next door, don't create conflict. It's hard enough for them to come back, please just calm down.”

“If they hadn't released an EP before, who knows how many people would be saying this and that. But ever since one EP proved their strength, everyone is quiet now. Amazing.”

“Mostly because the Juilliard School is really hard to get into, so they really can't badmouth it. It proves that a high education in the entertainment industry is indeed very useful. Hahaha~~”

“Before, with Zoe holding them down, solo stans could fight all they wanted. But ever since she went to school, we group stans have been suffering. Just thinking about it brings tears to my eyes!”

“I'm also a group stan. I really don't know what these solo stans are thinking. They're all family, but instead of uniting against outsiders, they engage in infighting. They have bubbles in their brains.”

“It was better when they first debuted. Everyone worked together for good results, and it was so satisfying. Thankfully, the backbone is back, and there's hope for the future.”

“Yes, yes, yes! Usually, when there's a disagreement like today, it's the solo stans' world. Look, no one is sticking their head out now. Anyway, no matter how good your bias is, can they be better than Zoe? Hahaha! So satisfying~”
