Chapter 98 Gao Yang's concert was all because of the cold air.
Lumera also took time to record the charity auction and audio recording for "Good Day," and collectively provided one item for the auction—a blind box.
What was served was just a huge box, which couldn't be opened yet; we had to take a picture to find out what was inside.
After a fierce competition among the guests, Cao Shihao, who had already bought so many blind boxes that his hands were sore, was the first to give up, and Fu Shuo-soon, who was really interested in blind boxes, won the prize. Lee Seok-min happened to have a schedule that day, so even though there were only two of them left, they didn't sit idle.
Upon opening it, I discovered it wasn't just one blind box, but many items, including a new scarf, limited-edition ornaments, and even a portable projector—a special Chinese New Year collaboration edition.
After comparing their spending, Fu Shun and his companion felt they had made a huge profit. They turned towards Lumera and solemnly said, "Thank you."
The guests who failed in the auction were filled with regret. They wished they had persisted a little longer to get their hands on all those wonderful items!
What a generous bunch of kids!
Lumera responded with a friendly smile. The members were slightly troubled. Although the previous auction items were varied, none of them really made them want to buy them. But since it was a charity-themed auction, they had to pay for it.
In the end, only GDxi was left, and they would participate in the auction no matter what!
Kwon Ji-yong, who was being thought of, turned his head and glanced at Jiang Tinghan, conveying his longing with his eyes.
He wants that projector too!
In the Korean entertainment industry, actors are all of high seniority, especially those from Chungmuro, and idols can only sit behind them.
Jiang Tinghan sat in the third row, exchanged a glance with Quan Zhilong, and mouthed, "I'll buy it for you when we get back."
After being serious for most of the episode, PD Kwon finally turned his attention away, satisfied.
"Finally, it's our Gionee's turn. I'll be the one to introduce the items up for auction."
Kwon Ji-yong walked to the front of the stage, opened the small box, and took out a paper coupon: "This is a coupon for Ji-yong. I can fulfill any request you make."
GD's number one fan, Hong Jin-kyung, had her eyes light up: "Really, you can do anything?"
Kwon Ji-yong couldn't help but laugh when he saw her exaggerated expression: "...Yes."
GD fanatic #2 Kwon Soonyoung: "Wow, this is amazing!"
G-Dragon fan #3, Boo Seungkwan: "It would be a real shame to miss it."
GD fanatic #4 Kim Seo-hee turned to look at the captain, awaiting instructions.
Jiang Tinghan noticed her gaze: "Do you want it? If you do, then join the competition. I'm open to it."
Skye: "Do we need this? It seems a bit redundant."
Foreign children speak so freely.
Kong Yeon-seo: "If we get it, how can we use it? Should we request that you create a group song for us?"
Bae Soo-min: "GD is amazing, but we Lumera also have Coldy."
Kong Yeon-seo: "That's right, Sumin, when did you become so eloquent?"
Bae Soo-min: "?"
"I've always been like this, thank you."
Before they knew it, everyone's eyes were drawn to Jiang Tinghan again. This item was incredibly tempting to many people present, but—Coldy was there!
Putuo Qian: "Then let's leave it to fate. If we can get it filmed, we'll ask GD to film the challenge for our title track."
Jiang Tinghan, at the center of the storm, calmly replied, "OK."
After some discussion, Lumera joined the competition. As expected, the bidding was extremely fierce, with prices rising higher and higher. Lumera also participated in bidding several times. In the end, it was just too endless, so the host, Daejun, temporarily stopped the bidding and decided to let Kwon Ji-yong choose instead.
Choosing the opposite option is the same as choosing the single option. He walked to the guest seats and, unsurprisingly, handed the ticket to Jiang Tinghan.
The other guests all showed expressions of "I knew it," and felt that this was the situation they could accept the most.
Jiang Tinghan, holding the voucher, was at a loss for what expression to make. Theoretically, she should express her gratitude, but she could easily obtain someone else's treasure because she had already acquired the voucher's owner, a priceless treasure.
She smirked and joked, "Can I sell it now? Starting bid is one Korean won."
Kwon Ji-yong also laughed, and retorted, "Am I really worth this price?"
"Of course not, GD's words are undoubtedly a treasure," Jiang Tinghan raised an eyebrow, accepted the voucher, and said slowly, "Damn it, we will definitely make good use of it."
As the fans engaged in their familiar flirting, the auction came to a close, and the next segment proceeded smoothly. Kwon Ji-yong introduced the songs he was going to rearrange: two songs from 1988, "Telepathy" and "Moonlight Window," which he transformed into a very family-friendly style. After listening, a feeling of happiness welled up inside.
On this day, everyone will first get to know each other and practice, and then they will take turns recording.
The producer is online!
Lumera had too many members, so they unanimously agreed to use a chorus format during the recording.
In the same segment, the host Line, one of the guests, sings the first four lines, and the last four lines are sung by Lumera.
"Oh, those who belong to me."
"This is a flower I'm giving to you."
"The starlight smiled gently, swaying slightly."
"Please open that window to your soul."
The recording only took a few tens of minutes, and Lumera, with her excellent professional skills, quickly completed the recording.
Jiang Tinghan came out of the recording studio and patted Kwon Ji-yong on the shoulder: "Oppa, good luck, I'm leaving now."
Kwon Ji-yong grabbed her hand: "Tinghan, do you want to sing this rap together with me?"
"It should be very interesting."
Jiang Tinghan looked up at her teammates. They had all gathered by the door, waving goodbye to her, clearly indicating that they had accepted her decision to stay.
Kids are really something.
She looked down again and saw Kwon Ji-yong's bright eyes. Well, it was hard to refuse.
"Is it from the part about 'carefully wrapping a rose in paper'?"
Kwon Ji-yong nodded heavily: "Yes!"
The two of them entered the recording studio. They were already quite familiar with recording together. Like the two voices of morning dew and the first ray of sunlight, their voices echoed and blended in the recording studio, creating a rhythmic rap.
"Carefully wrap a rose in paper."
"Whether it was yesterday or today, we are waiting as always."
"Because your windows were never opened."
Have a good day!
"It's a good day!"
Jiang Tinghan's voice was soft and sweet, while Kwon Ji-yong's rap was normal but also full of sweetness. It was a duet that would make people feel happy just by listening to it.
At the end of March, Kwon Ji-yong began the first stop of his world tour in Goyang, Seoul.
It was freezing cold today. If it were an explosion, it would at least be warmer, but today's cold was a double attack, both physically and mentally. Even if you were dressed like a dumpling, you could still feel the wind sneaking in from who-knows-where.
Kwon Ji-yong was so cold he was practically snotting from his nose. He arrived at the venue with Jiang Tinghan wearing a down jacket, holding hands the whole way, ostensibly to keep warm.
Problems arose immediately: "Ah, the temperature is too low today. I don't know if the fireworks and drones will be able to operate normally. The chances of the temperature rising tonight are also slim."
Kwon Ji-yong relayed the staff's words to Jiang Tinghan: he had carefully prepared every part, and he would be very disappointed if any part could not proceed normally.
Jiang Tinghan gripped his hand tightly: "Then let your performance ignite the fans' passion, Oppa."
"Think about it, tens of thousands of people sharing the cold with you today is a romantic thing."
Kwon Ji-yong really liked this phrase, and it was still echoing in his mind when he was about to go on stage. But as soon as he stepped onto the stage, all his thoughts were cleared away, leaving only the cheers and screams of his fans.
Long time no see.
Flames erupted, the curtains rose, and the red roses and crown shone brightly, but none of them were as dazzling as Kwon Ji-yong himself.
Upon seeing him, many fans were stunned into a blank, taking a few seconds to process what was happening.
It's gray hair!
How did you get so thin!
—So handsome!!!
Power is here!
As the songs went by, guest CL appeared, eliciting another round of enthusiastic screams.
Fans in the front row of the inner field noticed Jiang Tinghan as soon as the show started. The concert setlist included two new songs, "Snow Nails" and "7 Hours". Although "Three Times" was not included, they were looking forward to seeing GC recreate the performance of "Snow Nails" at MAMA. However, seeing Jiang Tinghan watching from the audience, they more or less guessed that she was not a guest performer at the concert.
It's certainly a pity, but seeing Coldy waving his light stick for GD in the front row makes it all worthwhile.
Looking up, the performance of "Snow Nails" had already begun. Fans who didn't see Jiang Tinghan were waiting for her to appear in the audience, while those who did see her were also wondering how Jiang Tinghan's part would be presented.
"But the seasons, our seasons, pass by..."
Jiang Tinghan's image appeared on the big screen. Her breathtakingly beautiful face suddenly burst into the eyes of the fans. Her makeup and styling were different from that day at MAMA. Her hair was cut into medium length and draped over her shoulders, but the colors and accessories were coordinated, which immediately caused a huge wave of shouts.
"Aaaaaaahh ...
Coldy's part was a re-recorded version she made for the concert, which was more solid, powerful, and had a stronger live impact than the original audio version.
Wearing a green suit, Kwon Ji-yong turned around, looked up at Jiang Tinghan on the big screen, his smile was so wide he couldn't hide it, and her image was clearly reflected in his eyes.
He raised the microphone and gently sang a harmonial for Jiang Tinghan in the accompaniment: "Bitter."
"A wound that is difficult to heal—"
"I will never come back."
The song was clearly very sad, yet it was wildly captivating.
Jiang Tinghan's appearance was only fleeting, and soon Kwon Ji-yong's face appeared on the big screen. The young couple appeared one after the other, and the screams became even more deafening, reaching a new peak in the next song, "7 Hours," as if the whole audience had boiled over.
During the talk segment, Kwon Ji-yong was sniffling as he spoke, and every time he opened his mouth, white breath came out, and the tip of his nose was also bright red.
"Ah, it's been a long time since I've seen everyone at my concert. The weather isn't very good today, probably because I've been listening to too many songs about snow and cold lately."
Loud shouts erupted again from the audience, mixed with laughter.
Jiang Tinghan put down the daisy light stick. This light stick was much heavier than the plastic light stick and crown light for MAMA. Her arm was really sore from holding it for so long.
That heartless little brat, she was just comforting him.
...It seems like it's not young anymore.
That heartless bastard.
Kwon Ji-yong's speech was predictable; it basically consisted of "I miss you guys, I miss the stage, I'm back," along with the concept for the new album, and a brief mention that next year is Bigbang's 20th anniversary, hoping everyone would come to see them. He spoke each sentence slowly, as if every word had been carefully considered, and it sounded very sincere.
Many fans have been in tears since the beginning of the concert and are still crying now. It's so good to see G-Dragon on stage again.
It's simply a miracle.
The Kwon Ji-yong of 2025 possesses a different charm than that of 2017, but is equally captivating, making it impossible not to love him.
Jiang Tinghan picked up the daisy-shaped light stick again, looked at Kwon Ji-yong on stage singing and dancing with all his might, and thought to himself—
It's so great to see G-Dragon back on stage.
*
In April, a new episode of "Good Day" aired!
[I'm reporting someone who's acting like royalty on "Good Day"! How powerful must their connections be to receive such special treatment from GD!]
[Poster]
Who is this Coldy? How did he get GD's exclusive coupons and dare to say he wants to resell them? That's a serious crime and shows disrespect to his seniors!
In this situation, how could someone participate in two parts of the song "Good Day" all by themselves! Not only can they sing with the group, but they can also sing with GD. With such a huge scandal, how come no one noticed?
This music video is even more incredible; it features GD confessing his love to her with a bouquet of roses, and she actually pushes him away and rejects him!
She only accepted the gift after GD brought her a bouquet of daisies. She was really pushing her luck! The lyrics clearly say "waiting," but this woman just turned around and left, and GD had to chase after her. She was completely ripped off!
Even GD has to be subservient to her, how powerful is she? Could it be that she made a personal threat to GD?
Can anyone answer this for me? I really want to know! (Sincere gaze.JPG)
【1L】
This Coldy is a true member of the royal family. Did you know that her other name is Kodi? Actually, she is the emperor of a country called "Crazy". If Quanlong disrespects her, he may be executed by axe.
【2L】
Wow, is it that scary? Looks like we can't mess with this Coldy!
【3L】
She's a woman who's terrifying both when you think about her closely and when you think about her superficially!
【4L】
Don't you know Coldy? Let me introduce him properly. He's the leader of Lumera, a group that won numerous awards in 2023 and 2024. His debut album sold over ten million copies, and his first full-length album sold over eight million copies, breaking many records. He has created many hit songs such as "Waves," "Wildfire," "Spring Awakening," "Cold," "Crazy Kingdom," and "Three Times." He's currently making a comeback with his latest album, "Featherweight"!
【5L】
Hahaha, is that so? She seems to be a genius producer, but I still can't forgive her for exploiting GD and making him shoot a music video like this. I wonder if his girlfriend will be angry? I think her name is Jiang Tinghan? I heard she's a Chinese woman.
【6L】
What a coincidence, Coldy is also Chinese. I heard that he went to GD's first concert a few days ago and even sat in the front row.
【7L】
Ah, could it be... Coldy, give up on that idea, our GD doesn't do meal replacement stuff!
【8L】
With some connections and inside information, this Coldy did indeed threaten GD, frequently going to GD's home. Sometimes, GD would open his eyes and see Coldy by his bedside. It's practically the work of a gangster!
【9L】
Someone please save my utterly ridiculous sense of humor! Did Coldy sitting in the front row at his concert mean he was trying to curry favor with his idol and climb the social ladder? How could a public figure who's allowed on variety shows steal a fan's seat? This is outrageous!
【10L】
That's so cruel! Don't you think Kwon Ji-yong is pitiful? He's a superstar loved by so many fans, yet he's ended up in this state, and you can still laugh!
【11L】
Stop acting! You almost fooled me. What if an innocent passerby walks in and gets fooled by your ridiculous act? Besides, even though my sister is an idol, it doesn't conflict with her being a G-Dragon fan. She's a die-hard G-Dragon fan, a super toxic stan, and she deserves a front-row seat to see her husband! I believe that more than showing off her relationship, Han Jie's reason for sitting in the front row is definitely to see G-Dragon perform up close.
For details, please see the video of Coldy's reaction taken by fans at the scene. For more than two hours, almost three hours, her eyes were basically never off Kwon Ji-yong, and she even sang along to many of his songs.
If this isn't true love, if this isn't true fandom, then what is?
【12L】
Hahaha, no one should believe this is so outrageous, right? I've already craved all the sweet moments from the concert countless times. Can you imagine dozens of people watching Han Jie's RE concert at 2 or 3 AM? Everyone's gone crazy over the GC (Gross Concert) and completely lost in the moment...
All I can say is that you two, GC and GA, really come up with all sorts of ways to show your affection. You even managed to show off your love during the massive sing-along of "Good Day," and your auction was also great. Ever since I started shipping GC, I've stopped getting low blood sugar.
【13L】
Every time Quanlong turns around, he's looking for Sister Han. Is Sister Han wearing catnip? Is she that attractive to this cat?
【14L】
How many times will these two stare at each other?! They're staring at each other like crazy in the MV too. What's the setting this time? A spoiled rich girl and her submissive boyfriend?
【15L】
It feels like the two characters' real-life personas have switched roles in the music video. In reality, Kwon Yong is probably a bit more dramatic (in a good way).
【16L】
Let's defend Xiaohan in our MV. She wasn't being overly dramatic. It was just a change of flowers; roses can't compare to daisies. It's perfectly normal.
【17L】
GC really enjoyed singing and performing, I'm going to play this rap on repeat! It sounds so cute and sweet!
【18L】
The other members of our team were hilarious too. Before the captain even said anything, they all abandoned him and left. What happened to your team spirit?! Lu was also super sincere. He stuffed a lot of gifts into the blind box, and in the end, it was definitely the young people who won the blind box.
【19L】
You turned to look at Sister Han again at that moment. What, you want it too? If you want it, why don't you make a bid?
【20L】
He doesn't want to buy it himself; he wants his girlfriend to give it to him as a gift!
【21L】
Holy crap! I guess I just don't understand love anymore.
【22L】
I'm curious about where this coupon is used. It probably won't be of any use to Han Jie personally, but it should be very useful to Lu, right?
[23L]
Based on my understanding of Sister Han, Brother Long will probably regret giving her the coupon; she's actually a hidden madwoman.
[24L]
Actually, there was nothing hidden.
Jiang Tinghan felt very innocent. She used the coupon for Kwon Ji-yong and Lumera's video shoot as agreed. The video was normal, just like in the music video, with one person acting as a serious instructor while the others danced enthusiastically and intensely around him.
She simply made G-Dragon the coach surrounded by others, saving him the trouble of moving. How thoughtful of her! The final product was quite youthful and vibrant, but fans commented that "Lumera is like performing a ritual for G-Dragon" and "Hell for socially anxious people," which is truly hurtful and hurtful.
Xiao Han, who was feeling down, felt her heart warmed up again when she saw the success of Lumera's new album. After a year's hiatus, Lumera made a strong comeback, once again sweeping the top spots on various charts. The title track "Featherweight," which is the same as the album, dethroned "7 Hours" from its daily number one position. The album's themes of "sports," "vitality," and "struggle" have also received much praise, and it has been described as having "a kind of back-to-basics beauty."
The title track, "Featherweight," tells the story of a player who, despite being at a significant disadvantage in a match, refuses to give up and ultimately turns the tide to victory. It's clear that a lot of money was spent on the filming, as they hired a professional stadium and even rented a baseball field. The eight main dancers, along with a dozen or so backup dancers, created a spectacular display when they danced together.
Fans showered them with praise in every imaginable way, even thoughtfully suggesting, "If Bigbang can't do synchronized dancing, they can ask Lumera for help!"
Although Bigbang's leader didn't seek advice from Lumera, he was lectured by Lumera because he was sick after the concert and still didn't stay home. He went to film a date scene for "Good Day" with Hwang Kwang-hee and Jung Hyung-don. It's understandable that he was on a schedule, but it's really incomprehensible that he stayed up all night when asked to sleep. Although it can't be said that there was a direct connection, the result was that his cold got worse.
Kwon Ji-yong expressed his anger, saying that he was 37 years old and still being deprived of his freedom to stay up all night. He was no longer a child!
He argued, "This is all for my fans. I haven't slept; I've been liking their posts on Instagram. They're happy to receive my likes."
Jiang Tinghan: "Then I'll go sleep in the guest room. I still have a lot of work to do and I can't afford to get infected."
Kwon Ji-yong: "..."
It sounds a bit like a threat!
He raised his hand and swore, "Dear Tinghan, I will go to bed early starting today."
He sniffed as he spoke, looking sickly and pitiful.
Jiang Tinghan placed the hot water in front of him, along with the pills: "Then take your medicine first."
Kwon Ji-yong sighed silently to himself.
Ugh, I hate being sick.
It's all because of the cold air.
No, that's not right either. Cold air is also a unique memory. It's because his physique isn't strong enough; he needs to continue exercising.
Meanwhile, filming for "Fifteen Nights on a Business Trip" is about to begin.
