Chapter 115 Bigbang is too brave
When Ye-eun and her friends entered the venue, Bigbang and TVXQ had already sat down. I don't know what the organizer was thinking this time. Outside the venue, they asked the captains of the two groups what they thought of each other, and inside the venue, they placed the two groups in front and behind each other.
The camera moved with 2NE1's entrance. Ye-eun waved towards the camera. At a glance, it was seen that there were more audiences inside the venue than outside. They were crowded on both sides of the guest seats. The nearest audience was only separated from the artists by a guardrail.
Seeing 2NE1 sitting down next to Bigbang, the fans nearby screamed excitedly.
The camera once again turned to the artists entering the venue. It took more than an hour just to walk the red carpet.
The artists who had already entered the venue lowered their heads and chatted in low voices with their familiar friends.
Kwon Ji-yong turned his head and glanced at Ye-eun beside him. The stylists of 2NE1 and Bigbang have always been bold. In order to match today's Prada style, her eye makeup today is also a yellow-green eyeshadow with a gradient from golden yellow in the eyes to light green at the end of the eyes. The upward eyeliner makes her look a lot stronger.
Noticing Kwon Ji-yong's gaze, Ye-eun didn't even turn her head. When this person was at the company today, he saw that the bag Prada sent him came with two bear pendants, so he directly took the red and white one, and even said that the black and white one was more suitable for his outfit today.
Although he is a fashion icon who spends his free time visiting trendy brand stores and whose outfits on stage, after get off work and at the airport are followed by countless media and fans, Yeeun has to admit that he is right.
But this is not a reason for him to take away his favorite red bear!
Ye-eun muttered quietly, "You obviously like black, why did you take my red bear?"
Kwon Ji-yong was amused by her aggrieved expression and was about to tease her, but the next second, Yi-eun looked towards the entrance in surprise.
He followed her gaze and was also stunned. It turned out to be HOT, which had disbanded seven years ago, and the one that came in after them was SES, which also disbanded six years ago.
They all reunited on the 10th anniversary of MKMF. Ye-eun pursed her lips in emotion.
The arrival of the group that almost started the trend of boy and girl groups in Korea made all the artists stand up and bow slightly to greet the two groups passing by.
As the captains of the two groups, Wen Xijun and Choi Sungxi led the members to greet everyone. When they saw Ye Eun, they both laughed. Choi Sungxi patted her head and said with emotion: "I heard that the little witch has become the number one girl in YG?"
The two of them joked with each other and nodded politely when they looked at Quan Zhilong.
The 10th anniversary of MKMF Music Festival was indeed grand. At 6 pm Korean time, Rain, who had become famous throughout Asia, came out.
The popular idol turned out to be the host. The audience was excited. Rain smiled and waited for everyone to calm down. When the cheers of the audience died down, he spoke: "Welcome everyone to the 10th anniversary of MK. Today I am neither receiving an award nor serving as an award presenter. I am here as the host."
The audience's cheers resounded throughout the Jamsil again, and he smiled, "Now let's take a look at which artists are here today."
The artist video quickly introduced the idols present. When TVXQ and Bigbang appeared, the screams seemed to break through the sky, and when 2NE1 and Wonder Girls were called, the fans of both sides were no less excited.
The fans who had already been at loggerheads during the voting were even more afraid that their own cheers would be outshone.
Yien turned her head to take a look at this magical scene where one voice was drowning out another, and then she heard a voice from the venue saying, "Please welcome the presenter for the Best Newcomer Award."
The Best New Artist Award, which is presented first every year, was divided into Male New Artist and Female New Artist this year. The Female New Artist Award is the one 2NE1 is most looking forward to and is determined to win. She quickly turned her head and sure enough, the two award presenters had already stepped onto the main stage.
"Everyone knows that the New Artist Award can only be won once in a lifetime, right? You also know that the artists who won the New Artist Award in MKMF eventually became superstars, right?" Shin Dong Wook smiled and glanced at his partner.
The other party immediately responded, "Oh, that means the artist who won the MKMF Newcomer Award today will have the potential to become a big star soon, and what we are awarding today is the newly established Female Newcomer Award."
"Then let's take a look at the nominations for today's Female Newcomer Award."
The first thing that appeared on the big screen was 2NE1's "I don't care" MV, followed by female singers such as Davichi and Moon Ji-eun who also debuted this year.
Ye-eun sat up straight without making a sound, her hands nervously clenching the little bear, her breathing stagnating as she watched the images playing on the big screen.
CL was actually also very nervous, but as the captain she had to stay calm. She took a deep breath and held the members on both sides tightly.
It was Bigbang's first year without winning the Best New Artist award, but seeing their junior group so nervous, they couldn't help but hold their breath as well. It wasn't until the presenter shouted out "Best Female New Artist Award - 2NE1" that all ten of them breathed a sigh of relief.
CL smiled and patted the shoulders of Dara and Bom beside her, then stood up and bowed to the fans and the artists around who were congratulating her. Her movements were graceful, and there was no trace of the nervousness she had when she was holding the members' hands before.
The camera instantly turned to 2NE1, and the happiness on their faces made the fans scream, with some even covering their mouths and crying.
Ye-eun curved her eyes and made a heart shape with her hands towards the crying fans, which only made them cry even louder. Yi Eun turned around helplessly and saw Kwon Ji-yong clapping like everyone else, but when he saw her gaze, he tilted his head and gave her a thumbs up.
She couldn't help but smile, raised her hands and shook her two thumbs beside her face.
Her harsh makeup instantly turned her into a cute look, and the crying fans burst into laughter, clapping and cheering as they watched 2NE1 go on stage to receive the award.
CL bowed and took the golden trophy from the presenter. She choked up and trembled as she spoke: "2NE1 is honored to receive this award. We would like to thank President Yang for his careful cultivation of us along the way..."
Ye-eun silently lowered her head and pursed her lips, looking like she was so moved that she wanted to cry.
The artists in the audience were also looking at them with smiles. The New Artist Award means that you have defeated all the artists who debuted in the same year within this year, so many people cried when they won the New Artist Award. As expected, even YG would be excited about this.
However, Ye-eun was indeed touched at first, but when she heard that Yang Hyun-suk was the first one to be thanked, she was afraid that she would not be able to control her expression so she lowered her head.
It wasn’t until CL finished her acceptance speech and they walked off the stage and returned to their seats that Ye-eun started smiling again. She carefully took the trophy handed over by Park Sandara and smiled like a little fox who stole some fish. "Hehe, we have to thank our 2NE1."
Several people laughed, and Kwon Ji-yong shook his head helplessly, secretly playing with the teddy bear that he had just taken out of Ye-eun's bag.
He casually hung the teddy bear under his white fur coat. The black and white teddy bear and the fur matched harmoniously. He nodded with satisfaction. Seeing that Yi Eun put the bag back on her lap and indeed didn't notice it, Kwon Ji-yong couldn't help but chuckle.
The next nominees for the Male New Artist Award actually prepared performances. Several groups plus the original idol group HOT sang songs that had won awards in previous years. Everyone sang other groups' songs, which made the atmosphere even more lively.
Various awards were handed out, and 2NE1 also performed after Epik High won the Best Hip Hop Music Award.
2NE1 was still excited and thrilled to be on the Jamsil stage for the second time after the Dream Concert.
The lights of MKMF were more gorgeous than those of the Dream Concert. While Ye-eun was dancing and singing, looking at the gorgeous lights in front of her and listening to the screams of the audience faintly coming through the earphones, she couldn't help but wonder when they could have a concert that belonged only to them.
MKMF has been going on for a long time, with awards ceremony and various performances, but the audience's enthusiasm has not diminished.
It was not until TVXQ won the auction fashion award, the netizens' popularity award, the mobile phone popularity award and the most popular overseas popularity award that Yeeun noticed that TVXQ looked a little strange.
Bigbang, which won the Digital Music Award and the Best Male Group Award for "Day by Day", was waiting for 2NE1 to go backstage to prepare for the performance after winning the Best MV Award for "I don't care". Only then did Ye Eun figure it out.
In the end, only three major awards were left to be announced, and TVXQ had already won four awards before, and all of these four awards were won by voting by netizens.
For a moment, something flashed through Ye-eun's mind, but she was quickly drawn to the stage.
Taeyang Oppa stood in the center of the stage and sang the first line of "Only Look at Me". After the blue lights turned into dazzling red, Lee Hyori walked out from behind the stage wearing a white silk dress.
Ten or so seconds later, the audience's screams were almost ear-piercing. Ye-eun narrowed her eyes and watched Kwon Ji-yong, wearing a gray suit, walk down the stairs above the stage.
He sang, "It's just that in a long relationship, due to a little friction or a new heartbeat, curiosity has temporarily arisen."
Yi Eun couldn't help but lean back and narrowed her eyes. When she heard Kwon Ji-yong singing "Even if I'm unfaithful, you must never be unfaithful," she couldn't help but lower her head and roll her eyes.
Dara couldn't help but laugh when she saw her like this, and muttered quietly, "It's the same song, but when Taeyang sings it, it's so affectionate, but when GD sings it, it's so bad."
"When this guy wrote songs, he portrayed himself as an affectionate but scumbag man." Although it does match his appearance, Ye-eun was speechless when she thought about whether he was acting in his mind while watching her.
How could someone act like someone being abandoned today and then abandon others tomorrow? In order to write songs, she was daydreaming every day. Ye Eun squeezed her bag habitually, but found nothing. She turned her head decisively and saw her teddy bear hanging on the coat he took off.
She looked around and found that everyone's attention was on the stage. She immediately reached out carefully to try to "steal" her teddy bear back, but the fans' screams suddenly became louder again.
Yien was startled and her heart beat violently. She almost thought that her little action was discovered. She sat up straight suddenly, and saw Kwon Ji-yong kneeling on the stage, looking at Lee Hyo-ri pleadingly, with his hands on her waist.
Senior Lee Hyori gently held Kwon Ji-yong's head with both hands, but finally let him go, stood back on the sliding track and left him.
"Lies", which won the Song of the Year last year, sounded, and TOP walked out from the center of the stage wearing sunglasses. Ye Eun took a deep breath, and this time she stared at the stage with her eyes, her body motionless, but her hand secretly reached out for Kwon Ji Yong's clothes.
She touched the button of her little bear pendant a few times, trying to get it back. However, when she saw TOP walking around Lee Hyori with a confused look on his face, then taking off his sunglasses and turning to look at his fans hesitantly, Ye Eun couldn't help but stop what she was doing.
Didn’t he kiss Lee Hyori on the forehead during yesterday’s rehearsal? Is it necessary to be so entangled?
Is there any problem? Because of what was on her mind, Ye-eun stared at the stage and didn’t move her hands.
Sure enough, the next second TOP held Lee Hyori's face with both hands, lowered his head and moved towards her forehead in a dilemma, then suddenly lowered his head again and kissed Lee Hyori on the mouth.
Ye-eun obviously noticed that senior Lee Hyori was stunned for a moment. Her hands tightened and her pupils dilated. All the artists around her were also shocked, and even TVXQ couldn't help but widen their eyes.
"Where's the kiss?!"
“…Did I see it wrongly?”
"Ah, mua is too loud."
The remaining four members of Bigbang were standing on four tracks with their backs to the two people in the middle of the stage. Hearing the screams one after another, Kwon Ji-yong raised his eyebrows and kissed him on the forehead. "Are the audience's screams so loud?" It seems to be working very well!
He glanced at the artist area and became confused again. Why were they all standing up? Was a kiss on the forehead so powerful?
While other artists stared with their eyes wide open and covered their mouths, they couldn’t help but have their pupils tremble and kissed on the stage during the live broadcast! ?
Are you crazy! ? Is this YG’s courage? Is this Bigbang? The other person is the national goddess Lee Hyori!
The live camera immediately flashed across the shocked artists, and the audience smiled when they saw the artists were in the same state.
Lee Hyori herself was also shocked, but she managed to calm herself down. After singing "Lies" with Bigbang, she immediately sang "Day by Day".
The fans have recovered and are cheering in unison.
Even though the song had been changed, everyone was still shocked. Ye-eun listened to the constant exclamations of the artists around her and stretched out her hand. It was not appropriate to do sneaky things when they were performing, and no one knew what special Bigbang would do.
Ye-eun blinked and turned to look at the equally shocked 2NE1 members numbly, "Yesterday's rehearsal...was it like this?"
“No, no!” CL gasped. Even though it was the time for Kim Do Hyun and Lee Hyori to work together, she was still shocked. “Oppa is really… too bold.”
Minzy felt the same way, nodding her head and sighing, "It's over, TOP Oppa is going to be scolded, for sure."
That’s the national fairy Lee Hyori.
It wasn't until Daesung's "Look at Me, Gwisun" started playing that Ye-eun came back to her senses. She followed Daesung, making the OK sign and drawing circles on her cheeks with her hands.
The camera was focused on Ye-eun, and there was another round of screams from the audience.
When Bigbang, who had all changed their clothes and put on hand microphones, came on stage to sing Lee Hyori's classic song "10 Minutes", Taeyang and Kwon Ji-yong ran directly to the artist area to interact.
Taeyang stretched out his hand and high-fived the artists in a row, while Kwon Ji-yong trotted over after him. When he patted Ye-eun's hand, he couldn't help but smile, then quickly turned around and returned to the stage.
Ye-eun raised her eyebrows slightly and noticed that they didn't even bring headphones. She probably thought something went wrong when they were changing clothes so quickly. However, the five members of Bigbang still sang perfectly.
After more than ten minutes of performance, Bigbang returned to the guest seats.
The other four people didn’t notice that the eldest brother’s movements and expressions were strange. They were just excited that he performed 7 songs at the 10th anniversary of MKMF.
Kwon Ji-yong sat back in his seat wearing his red jacket and found that the little bear on his clothes was missing. He was about to ask Ye-eun to give it to him, but he saw Ye-eun staring at TOP with a strange look on her face.
"?" Quan Zhilong turned his head and found that almost everyone was pretending nothing had happened. However, from the glances they cast at him from time to time, he could tell that their attention was all on TOP.
He couldn't help but feel a little strange, so he turned sideways and asked Yien in a low voice: "What's wrong?"
Ye-eun pursed her lips and shook her head*, her eyes revealing sympathy, and whispered, "TOP Oppa, you have become the public enemy of all men in the country."
Quan Zhilong was even more confused: "It's not necessary to kiss the forehead."
"..." Ye Eun understood, but the others didn't know either. She sighed, "Who said he kissed her forehead? He kissed Lee Hyori sunbaenim's mouth!"
