Chapter 62 The Butterfly at the Waist
On April 15th, Cube released the music videos for Han Yoon-sung's two title tracks, "Rainbow" and "Shower," which quickly broke their own records in terms of views, surpassing one million views in just over three hours.
The music video for "Rain Shower" is heartwarming and healing, making viewers feel as if they are standing shoulder to shoulder with the girl, sharing an umbrella and getting through a sudden rainy day.
The music video for "Rainbow" is visually striking and vibrant, filled with the colors of spring, transforming into a rainbow palette. It's a work that will make you smile from the bottom of your heart after watching it.
The clip of Han Yoon-sung falling from a tree to the ground to see a rainbow has become incredibly popular.
The camera seemed to favor her; tiny water droplets clinging to the new leaves landed on Han Yunxing's eyebrows and eyes, and sunlight filtering through the intertwined branches refracted rainbow colors onto her face.
With pink hair, a white dress, and crescent-shaped eyebrows, Han Yunxing exudes a carefree and unrestrained charm, like a flower goddess suddenly appearing in the human world in spring. This scene, paired with a bright and cheerful melody, becomes the killing part of the entire music video.

—Kids, are you crazy?! The poster wasn't impactful enough, and now you're trying to trick me into watching the music video! Pink hair suits Yoon Sung perfectly!
—With all the artists personally handling the production, the quality is truly amazing!
—I want to take shelter from the rain under the eaves with my baby.
Friends, no new generation solo artist can beat Han Yunxing, right? All three albums have very high song quality. Although some people are pessimistic about the ballads, this time the popularity is expected to break new records.
—After listening to the whole album, I've already made plans with my parents to go on a picnic this weekend kkk
—Thank you, Yunxing, for your debut; you've truly brought us wonderful works!
...
Fans who were a little unsure about the music video's performance watched the music video while waiting for the chart results to be confirmed.
Han Yoon-sung's second mini album debuted in the top 30 of the Melon chart, with the two title tracks "Rainbow" and "Shower" securing positions 5th and 7th respectively.
Not only on Melon, but also on other music charts, the debut performance of this mini-album exceeded the company's expectations.
Even more terrifying is her album sales, which reached 420,000 copies in the first week. If her seniors don't have any comeback plans this year, Han Yoon-sung will firmly hold the top spot on the solo artist album sales chart.
On April 19, Rainbow recorded its first performance stage at the Music Center.

Han Yunxing had just seen off the group of junior artists who came to say hello. Looking at the autographed album in her hand, she remarked to Cody next to her, "Time flies so fast." Before, she was the one who went to the senior artists' dressing rooms to deliver albums.
Cody carefully used a rat-tail comb to fluff up Han Yunxing's hair: "Our Yunxing is a senior now~"
Han Yunxing sat up straight. The person in the mirror had her hair braided into pigtails and adorned with a string of pearls. Her stage outfit for today was provided by Miu Miu. It was the same white dress as in the music video, but Cody had altered the dress. Now, the altered dress revealed a small section of Han Yunxing's waist, just enough to show the butterfly tattoo that Cody had put on her waist.
Han Yunxing is ticklish, and it took Cody a lot of effort to get her tattoo applied.
The music center staff came to call Han Yunxing for rehearsal.
Han Yunxing was quite familiar with the music, and the staff who saw her along the way greeted her with smiles.

Qiao Qiao didn't get a chance to participate in the pre-recording this time, nor did she receive a ticket. She could only wait in front of the TV for Han Yunxing to appear.
After placing the fried chicken and cola on the table, Han Yunxing came out.
First of all, the stage design was beautiful. The lawn was dotted with colorful wildflowers, and the audience rode the Spring Country train to the clouds, where Han Yunxing slowly walked out of the clouds.
This dance was relatively simple, but Qiao Qiao was still amazed by Han Yunxing's high notes that she hit with ease: "It's a really beautiful voice."
It's not a showy singing style; Han Yunxing's singing is very infectious. Her warm voice makes the audience feel as if they are in a spring day after the rain, with a damp feeling in the air, but their mood is as bright as a rainbow.
At the end, Han Yunxing, with her two fishtail braids sticking out her dimples, had bright, sparkling eyes, and the rhinestones on the corners of her eyes shimmered with her expressions.
The live stream camera was a beauty amplifier, and Qiao Qiao's breath hitched. As soon as Han Yunxing left the stage, she went online and joined her fellow fans in a frenzy.
—I'm speechless! My daughter is already at the next level.
—Who knows, who knows! The butterfly faintly visible on her waist, I so want to reach out and grasp it! This woman's motives are impure; I've already changed…
—Did she really get a tattoo? Or was it arranged by Cody?
—Your makeup and styling are gorgeous today! Thank you Cody, thank you Miu Miu!
—I love this stage so much!
—But did Yoon Sung, who won an award, really get hyped up during her encore? She was like a street urchin on stage, haha.
...
Twice's "What is Love?" is in its second week of promotion, and Han Yoon-sung's release coincides with theirs.
When the stars found out that Han Yoon-sung might be performing on the same stage with Twice again, they were speechless. They wanted to shake Cube: "Can't you pick a good day for the next comeback? If not, we should consult a fortune teller!"
Han Yunxing had a tough time winning this award. After she accepted the trophy, Lin Nalian, who was walking off the stage, hugged her and pinched her little braid.
People passed by Han Yunxing one after another until she was the only one left on the stage. Han Yunxing picked up the microphone and started singing along with the accompaniment.
It's incredibly stable, I must have taken a CD.
Han Yunxing twirled around on the stage, holding her skirt, and even changed the key on the spot when she got into the mood.
Back in the lounge, Han Yunxing carefully put on her necklace, looked at herself in the mirror, and took out her phone to take a picture from the side.
In the photo, a slender waist glows warmly, and a red butterfly rests on her jade-like skin, its wings shimmering with tiny gold dust.
The photos Han Yunxing uploaded were a surefire way to attract fans, and a large number of comments immediately appeared below them.
She leaned back in her chair, carefully reading their comments and choosing which ones to reply to.
Someone asked if the butterfly on Han Yoon-sung's waist was a tattoo.
—They're temporary tattoos, aren't they cute?
Han Yunxing had thought about getting a tattoo on a whim, but it's been all talk and no action so far.

After a week of promotions, Han Yoon-sung's music charts steadily rose, and it can be said that the album's release time was very smart, with shops playing "Rainbow" and "Spring Dance" everywhere in the spring.
"Shower" also encountered its first spring rain since its release, and the number of listeners soared as soon as it rained, almost surpassing "rainbow".
Han Yunxing won five first place awards in a week, even when competing against the most popular teams.
After recording the radio program, Han Yoon-sung also has a book signing event scheduled.
A large crowd had already gathered at the entrance of a venue in Seoul.
When the event started, Han Yoon-sung first performed "Spring Dance," the only song with a lot of choreography in this comeback. After that, she sang "Rainbow" and "Shower."
Today she was wearing a green dress, and the sunlight shone through the window onto her. The thin veil over Han Yunxing's skirt seemed to glow as she danced.
After the autograph session began, the headwear brought by the fans was varied and interesting. Although the cartoon headgear didn't quite match her outfit, Han Yunxing looked quite cute wearing it. Her bright, smiling eyes stared at the fans, and she answered whatever they said, being super well-behaved.
When the next fan handed Han Yunxing a flower wreath and she put it on her head, the sound of camera shutters clicking in the audience increased.
Intertwined vines adorned with pink and white blossoms perfectly complemented Han Yunxing's makeup and styling today, making her look like a little fairy in a spring forest.
"Unnie, you're so beautiful, can we take a picture together?" The owner of the flower wreath asked, her eyes sparkling.
Upon hearing this, Han Yunxing started humming Shan's "Noonao Muyebo," but this elementary school student fan seemed to have never heard of the song before.
Han Yunxing hummed a song, and she stared at him intently with wide eyes.
Han Yunxing stopped humming amidst the cheers from the audience, and her elementary school fans immediately clapped: "Unnie is so cute!"
"Thank you, Star! You're beautiful too~" After Han Yunxing finished signing the album, the elementary school student's mother came out from the side and took a photo of the two of them.
The elementary school student/younger sister couldn't resist hugging Han Yunxing during the filming because of the warmth of the person close to her.
Han Yunxing was suddenly hugged, and after a moment of surprise, she laughed even more happily.
After several fans went on stage, Han Yunxing saw her old acquaintance Qiao Qiao walk up.
She was just about to say hello when Qiaoqiao started acting up.
"Unnie, could you draw a rabbit on my autograph?" Qiaoqiao clasped her hands together: "Please~"
"Unnie?" Han Yunxing stopped signing and pointed in her own direction. "Me? Hahahaha."
"Of course, I'm an unnie (older sister)." After signing her name, Han Yunxing drew a little rabbit next to it, but felt something was missing after she finished.
Oh, right!
Han Yunxing added a dialogue box next to the rabbit: 【Wishing Qiao Qiao all the best in her studies – Bunny Unnie】
Just now, Han Yunxing was so gentle to the little fan. Qiao Qiao's original intention was to have some fun and experience it, but she didn't expect Han Yunxing to go from being a hand warmer to a little sun: he is really a super gentle person to his fans.
Last year, during a book signing, Qiao Qiao briefly mentioned to Han Yunxing that she was going to publish a paper next year. After Han Yunxing finished signing, she chatted with Qiao Qiao: "Unnie, are you still busy with your paper lately?"
Han Yunxing's gentle eyes fell upon her, and Qiao Qiao nodded frantically, "Waaaaah, Yunxing-nim~"
"Yes! We're about to submit the article."
Han Yunxing stretched out her hands: "Unnie, I'm very lucky, I'm passing on the good luck!"
Qiaoqiao held the offered hand, reluctant to let go.
Because of her busy studies, this comeback will most likely only involve this one autograph session.
Hello~
Han Yunxing took the album, looked up at the person who had come, and recognized him; he had been there before at their first autograph session.
The man with the bowl cut hair, plaid shirt, and slightly chubby appearance gave Han Yunxing a shy smile.
"Kim... Woo-bin-ssi?"
After being brought out by Han Yoon-seong, Kim Woo-bin nodded slightly, his smile becoming noticeably brighter.
Han Yunxing looked at him intently, and couldn't help but marvel at how much Kim Woo-bin had changed. The pain from the verbal bullying couldn't be erased, but he seemed to be beginning to be reborn: "Woo-bin-ssi, thank you for coming to see me~"
Kim Woo-bin: "I want to share the good news with Yoon-sung. I've been accepted into university."
Han Yunxing quickly stopped what she was doing and applauded for him: "That's great, congratulations Woobin-ssi on seeing the rainbow."
Congratulations on becoming a college student!
As Kim Woo-bin recited "See the rainbow," his smile dispelled the gloom: "Can we play a singing game with Yoon-sung? I'll sing a line from 'Rain Shower,' and Yoon-sung will sing a line from 'Rainbow'?"
"Do you want to know if the tears of rain are bitter? Is the spring rain cold?"
—Tick-tock, tick-tock, even the sun weeps; her tears turn into rainbows.
"As I thought this, the endless rain enveloped me."
I will breathe like the grass and catch the rainbow in the spring rain.
"I look terrible because I'm all wet."
—After embracing, I'll turn into the wind, fly up to the clouds, and lie on the rainbow bridge.
...
Kim Woo-bin's voice trembled slightly, but he persevered and finished singing with Han Yoon-sung's encouraging gaze.
"Success!" Han Yunxing smiled and held out her palm.
"Success." Kim Woo-bin's hand trembled, but he gave her a firm high five.
Han Yunxing saw him at several subsequent autograph sessions.
May is the month of school anniversary celebrations, and Han Yunxing's first stop was Central University.
After the written and oral exams, she officially became a freshman in the Department of Practical Music at Chung-Ang University. After officially enrolling, although Han Yunxing could not attend classes on time like other students, she tried her best to attend her major classes.
When they first met Han Yunxing, her classmates were quite intrigued. Although they often saw their idol, Han Yunxing was now considered a top-tier artist.
However, aside from the first day when people took photos with her and asked for autographs, everyone later discovered that Han Yunxing was actually very approachable and would chat and joke with them. In addition, since she hadn't been back at school very often recently, her classmates gradually started treating her like a normal classmate.
Once the promotional period was over, the school contacted Han Yunxing to participate in the school anniversary event, and she readily agreed.
