157: A hot trophy

Kim Ji-soo is very smart and catches on quickly.

Thinking about themselves, they handle everything on their own, making it hard to categorize!

“So which faction do we belong to?”

“Which faction do you want to stand with?”

“I want to stand with your faction, is it reliable?”

“Unreliable! I’m not part of YG’s management, so standing with my faction is useless.”

“Then why don’t you acquire some YG shares! I’m sure the CEO would be very willing to sell, you… Ouch! Why did you hit my head?”

“Your brain’s short-circuited; I’m helping you wake up.”

She’d run away the moment her contract expired, not even looking back.

She’d be crazy to voluntarily tie herself to YG; there’s no benefit, only trouble.

“Yah! Your brain’s short-circuited.”

“Those good-for-nothings are not worth planning with.”

“Uh! Isn’t that a bit too arrogant? YG is a listed company after all, are the management really that low?”

“I admit there’s some exaggeration, but I don’t like their style.

We’re not on the same path, so we can’t get along.”

“Even if we were on the same path, we couldn’t get along; you can’t stand and pee, can you?”

This statement immediately silenced Xu Zhiyou.

The genius Dumpling Ni’s thoughts were always so jumping, you couldn’t help but be impressed.

“You really are a clever one.”

“I think so too! Hehe~”

“Ah! Cosmic Girls’ stage is almost over, get ready to go on stage.”

Thus, one group after another was interviewed.

When it was almost time for BP, she told Kim Ji-soo to get ready.

There was no need for her to run up and down after promoting, as they would be performing their song.

The live stream comments were curious about not seeing Kim Ji-soo, but once they heard she was getting ready to change, everyone remembered that BP also had a performance stage today.

“Oh my! Sitting here watching Zoe interview BP, it can’t be more awkward than just now, right.

Hahahaha~”

“It will only get more awkward.

One Jisooxi almost made me crack up; if Jenniexi, Caiyingxi, and Lisaxi come, I’ll really die of awkwardness.”

“Now that you say that, I’m looking forward to it.

It should be soon, right? Jisoo has already gone to change.”

…

Xu Zhiyou was only unaccustomed at first, but after adapting for a while, she was now completely ruthless, a true iron-blooded MC.

“The next group is BLACKPINK, with the song… da da da,” she said a lot, introducing both the members and the song.

She barely avoided a slip of the tongue, almost calling Jennie “Dumpling Ni” several times.

Besides Kim Ji-soo, the other three never lifted their heads the entire time, their shoulders still shrugging.

The live stream comments were filled with joy.

“Zoe: BLACKPINK’s comeback song this time is excellent; Jisoo: Kamsahamnida, I hope you like it.

Puhahaha~”

“Why is Jennie always looking down? Did she do something unethical? Just laugh if you want, I know you’re holding it in.”

“Damn it, Jisoo’s acting is amazing.

She was the MC just now, and now she’s part of the group to be promoted.

The role switch was so smooth, tsk tsk tsk!”

“Let’s just get through this! It’s really unnecessary; look at how much Chaeyoung and the others are holding back, puhahahaha~”

“Chaeyoung’s inner OS: Oh my god, you two can really act, that’s enough.

Do we really need this much exposure? Just let me go.

Wahahaha~”

“Pfft! That’s quite accurate.

Lisa has been pinching her own thigh; is she afraid of laughing? That’s so harsh.”

“Look closely at Jennie’s mouth, her lips are almost bitten through, and Jisoo and Zoe are still going back and forth, completely ignoring whether the members are awkward or not.”

“So embarrassing, I’ve already dug out three Barbie Dream Mansions!”

…

Bae Joo-hyun, watching from backstage, also felt awkward for them, but this was all part of the show’s process.

There are always some viewers who don’t know them.

Kang Seul-gi was truly impressed by them now; they could endure this without laughing.

They were tough, something she couldn’t do.

“Oh! Irene, aren’t they two awkward? I see Jennie and the other three are almost digging out a three-room apartment, not daring to lift their heads.”

“What can we do? If we don’t do this, what if we get cyberbullied for acting like divas? We have to follow the procedure.”

Park Soo-young saw Park Chaeyoung, who didn’t lift her head, and laughed until her stomach hurt, “Puhahaha! I’ll go ask Chaeyoung how she feels later, it’s killing me.”

As soon as the promotion on stage ended, Park Chaeyoung was the first to rush onto the stage.

She really couldn’t take it anymore; those two were acting her out there.

Earlier, she saw them using honorifics backstage and didn’t think much of it, but after experiencing it on stage herself, she realized they were both pros.

No wonder the company strictly required acting skills; without some acting, they couldn’t even get through an interview program.

Son Seung-wan saw Park Chaeyoung bolt without a word, as if a dog were chasing her, and couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

“Don’t ask! Chaeyoung was the first to run away as soon as the promotion ended, which pretty much answers the question.

Hahahaha~~”

The live stream comments were also very joyful.

“Puhahaha! How much torment did Chaeyoung endure? I’ve never seen her run away so fast, hahaha~”

“Lisa is rubbing her leg! It seems she really was pinching herself just now.

Look at what our fifth brother has been through.”

“Actually, it’s not bad! Just pretending not to know each other, nothing awkward.

I just want to laugh, that’s all.

Hahahaha~”

“Nima, that’s brilliant.

She even asked what theme her own song was expressing, Zoe, you’re something else.”

“That’s nothing, the key is she also praised it as very good, and Jisoo had to say Kamsahamnida, pfft! Let me laugh first.”

“Look at how much Jennie and the other three are holding back.

It’s one thing not to know people, but one praises and one thanks.

Sisters, you wrote the song, do you really need such a mysterious operation?”

“Otherwise, Lisa wouldn’t be pinching her own thigh, and Chaeyoung and Jennie would have almost suffocated themselves, directly falling into their own hands.”

“So much fun, hahahaha~”

When the music started, the live stream comments were all about how the MC ran onto the stage, telling them to pull her down, saying she was on the wrong stage, and so on.

They completely ignored their performance.

The interview video of the two of them just now was going viral on YouTube; now they had truly become a comedy girl group.

…

After their stage ended, Kim Ji-soo changed clothes and continued as MC.

When it was time to announce the first-place winner.

“The winner of the second week of Inkigayo in July is, please see the ranking, BLACKPINK.”

She took the trophy and presented it to Kim Jennie.

Kim Jennie subconsciously took the trophy and stared at Kim Ji-soo blankly, not saying a word.

“Jennie! Speak! What are you doing?”

“I… Unnie, you do it!”

“I’m the MC, you do it yourself, don’t you have a mouth?”

Kim Jennie handed the trophy back to Park Chaeyoung, Park Chaeyoung didn’t want it and gave it to Lisa, Lisa looked around and then returned it to Kim Ji-soo; in short, they didn’t want to speak.

Kim Ji-soo helplessly tried to ask Xu Zhiyou for help, but she also turned her head away, not looking at them, emphasizing that they were not close and she didn’t know them.

The other groups performing their songs behind them all burst out laughing, with Kang Seul-gi and Kim Yerim laughing the most unrestrainedly.

Eunhee nudged Cheng Xiao and said, “Xiao Xiao, is the first-place trophy that hot? They’re passing it around, don’t give it to me! I haven’t even touched one yet.”

“Puhaha! I don’t know, let me laugh for a while first.”

Cheng Xiao guaranteed that this performance would be an indelible dark history for them.
