Chapter 121 It’s a Good Day From Now On
◎Their future is all goodday!◎
Before Kwon Ji-yong's return, Kim Tae-ho, who used to be the PD of the Infinite Challenge program, came to him.
He hopes to take advantage of Kwon Ji-yong's return to collaborate with him on a program.
The theme of the program is also very concise and clear.
It is a music program led by Kwon Ji-yong. The program is in the form of a reality show, showing that Kwon Ji-yong will collaborate with different people from various fields to complete a song of the year.
The content of the program is to show the entire process of music creation.
The original intention was good. After listening to the ideas proposed by the program PD and the production blueprint of the program team, Kwon Ji-yong was also moved.
But who could have imagined that the subsequent direction of the show would be so confusing?
Maybe it’s because I have trust in the program team!
I think the program planning should be left to professionals, and I only need to produce the music content of the program.
Unexpectedly, the subsequent programs were like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, and Quan Zhilong became a cow or horse with a leash around its neck.
He had no choice but to finish filming this program with his name on it.
The 25th Dragon in that world privately complained to him, "Don't get involved in these capitalists' games."
“Before you participate, you must understand the rules.”
"Otherwise, in the end, I will just be the prey of the fish."
Therefore, after being approached by PD Kim Tae-ho last year, Kwon Ji-yong made a different decision in consultation with him.
“Turning into a YouTube-style show?”
PD Kim Tae-ho at the time exclaimed in surprise, "No! Zhilongxi, wouldn't it be better if the program was produced by MBC?"
It’s not that he looks down on YouTube programs, but when faced with a producer who is a big TV station, the investment in funds and costs alone is not on the same level.
Can the YouTube program of a personal team be compared with it?
"As far as I know, the TV station has already received investment from Disney. This is..."
What is this?
Kim Tae-ho didn't continue speaking, but Kwon Ji-yong on the other side also understood the suggestive meaning in his words.
Isn’t it just a huge investor, or “sugar daddy” for short?
Kwon Ji-yong also knows that the show will be followed by sponsorship from major advertisers such as Mercedes-Benz and KFC.
It is PD Kim Tae-ho's comeback work for his old agency MBC. He chose Kwon Ji-yong as his partner as his first regular variety show after his comeback with the release of a new song.
The program will not only be broadcast on MBC TV, but also through the global OTT platform Disney+, making it available to all overseas fans.
The program team will also invite many heavyweight guests to participate, including powerful actors, members of popular idol groups and well-known artists in other fields.
His close friend Lee Joo-hyuk also joined his 88line as a member of the friendly group.
When this business plan is brought out, who wouldn’t say it is perfect and exciting!
No wonder the me in that world chose to collaborate on this project.
But for Kwon Ji-yong, who had already been to 2025 and predicted the direction of the entire program in advance, PD Kim Tae-ho's strong recommendation just seemed... funny.
To use what Song Yu said to him, it was "a makeshift team", and Kwon Ji-yong also deeply agreed with the Korean translation.
Like when he was on the show Please Take Care of My Refrigerator, the chef said he used the highest quality ingredients and made a meal of caviar rice.
Kwon Ji-yong replied coldly: "Although it can't compare to big investments, I want to make a program with greater autonomy."
The meeting was scheduled to be held at Galaxy Company that day. A man in a suit kept a calm expression throughout the whole process. After reading the business plan and listening to the proposal of the program team, he would occasionally interrupt and ask a question, but he did not seem to be very interested.
For a moment, PD Kim Tae-ho felt that the Kwon Ji-yong in front of him had really become the character he had tailored for him on the Infinite Challenge program - Executive Director Kwon!
The Kwon Ji-yong who always had a shy smile and a humble attitude disappeared, making him feel unfamiliar.
Sure enough, this was confirmed in the subsequent conversation.
Kwon Ji-yong also wants to make a "Good Day" program. He hopes that the content will mainly revolve around music creation, while incorporating interaction and emotional exchanges between guests.
What he hopes is that "it will become an interview program rather than a variety show."
It is not a program where the production team arranges candidates for him to make friends and have a star-chasing meeting.
These were the words he didn't say.
As the investor, Disney owns two big-budget TV series of the actor, which is why it strongly recommended him to be on the show. After the incident, the first thing that came to mind was not how to save the show, but to consider the severity of the situation.
He pretended nothing happened and pushed the person whose name was on the show out to shield him from the criticism.
Even on the day of his Gaoyang concert, the other party was still using public opinion warfare tactics and talking to the families of the victims.
At that time, the entire program had to be significantly changed because of him.
Is this different from what YG did before?
Quan Zhilong felt that he was a big victim. He had to take care of his own concert arrangements, stay up late to change the songs, and clean up the mess for these people.
I really think he is a professional at cleaning up messes!
Despite his strong and opinionated appearance, PD Kim Tae-ho's visit to negotiate the trip was of course unsuccessful.
Quan Zhilong remained unmoved by all his temptations, including all the investment and sponsorship blueprints that would come in the future.
"invest?"
Quan Zhilong laughed: "Hyun! My name should be worth a lot too!"
Because it is the first program after G-Dragon’s comeback, “Good Day” means GD’s good day!
How could the investment attracted by using his name become a condition for the other party to gain leverage over him during their negotiations?
PD Kim Tae-ho's mouth moved slightly, and he wanted to say something to persuade others to keep the project, but after being silent for a while, he gave up.
In the end there is nothing to say.
This plan was declared a failure.
Since then, Kwon Ji-yong and his agency have been busy preparing for Kwon Ji-yong's personal YouTube program based on the theme of the program.
Personal YouTube programs will not continue indefinitely. "Good Day" will only have eight episodes, and only eight groups of invited guests, but they are not limited to individuals or groups.
Why are there only eight groups of guests?
Don’t ask, the answer is the 88 digital universe that Kwon Ji-yong is obsessed with.
Yes, Kwon Ji-Dong is so willful. After finishing these eight episodes, will he continue to host this show?
Kwon Ji-yong said: It depends on my mood and time, come and go!
Anyway, my own YouTube program channel is there, so it’s convenient to release whatever I want in the future. It also provides me with an additional channel for personal promotion.
On February 25, the day when the new songs were released, not only were the MVs of several new songs released, and the entire album was made public, but also the preview of the previously recorded Dragon Tarot program and the preview of the personal YouTube program were released one by one.
It was like a flood, with so much material that the fans were overwhelmed.
In fact, in January, Kwon Ji-yong’s personal YouTube program was made public and certified by Galaxy Entertainment.
In just three days, the number of followers of the new account, which did not have any content, reached one million. Now, almost two months have passed. It is estimated that after the release of the first episode, a new record for a Korean entertainment artist will be created.
The show attracted over 10 million fans on its first broadcast.
It caused so many people to be amazed, which is worthy of the amazing influence of this man.
It also gave a big slap in the face to the program crew who had previously persuaded Quan Zhilong to take on the cooperation with the TV station.
See~ What’s valuable is the name GD, not your show!
Quan Zhilong proved that he can work alone, it just depends on whether he wants to or not.
.
On February 6, 2025, Kwon Ji-yong officially announced that he will launch a world tour in 2025, named "ubermensch", and revealed that the first stop will be held in early April at the Goyang Sports Complex in South Korea for two consecutive days.
The fans are excited about this! I knew it! There will definitely be a tour after the comeback.
On February 13, 2025, detailed information about Kwon Ji-yong's 2025 world tour was announced on the ticketing website, including performance time, location, ticket office, etc. The time of the first concert, Goyang, was also announced.
On holiday the first weekend in April.
The battle to grab tickets has begun.
Song Yu didn't need to pay special attention to Quan Zhilong's news, as there were many people who came to tell her for no apparent reason, including but not limited to: tagging her on various platforms, complaining to her about how hard it was to get concert tickets, and CP fans tagging her sweet blog posts...
The main dancer is not afraid to dance in front of the main character.
They themselves have publicly admitted it anyway.
There were so many things that by the time Song Yu saw them, a long time had often passed, or she had too much news and it was drowned out.
When Song Yu saw these news, he always felt a sense of both laughter and tears.
I thought: It turns out that after the news was made public, the fans were quite calm!
Actually, this is not the case.
With the announcement of their relationship, there will definitely be friction in the fan circle. Fans are chasing you personally, not your family. Being able to love your family as well as your family is already the maximum they can do.
Her team treated these fan quarrels as previous fan circle frictions and public opinion and handled them accordingly.
The so-called war of words is nothing more than a battle for popularity.
The popularity of this top-tier CP is comparable to that of the other party, so these verbal battles have become verbal attacks between each other. Gradually, they have also accepted the titles of "brother-in-law" and "sister-in-law".
Used to entertain yourself.
But when it comes to accepting memes, it is obvious that Kwon Ji-yong's Chinese fans are more open to it.
Especially the intensity of the first wave of ticket-grabbing battles, their comments would definitely be drowned out under Song Yu's various accounts, whether it was her studio or personal account, and they even reached the account of "her assistant".
"Sister-in-law, do you have the concert tickets?"
"+1, Quan Long's ticket is so hard to get, and it coincides with the Qingming Festival holiday, so overseas flights are incredibly expensive."
"Laji Yinhe Company can't hear the fans' voices, but my sister-in-law can definitely hear them! Can you tell my brother about it?"
"Awesome, let your sister-in-law whisper in your ear."
'You're crazy! You're asking for tickets here.'
"Why are his fans so annoying?! Get out of here!"
"Hypocrites, there's something dirty in your comment section. Does this account still care? @Song Yu Studio."
"Can you please get out of here and have some fun on your own, Prison Fans?!"
Assistant Huahua, who is in charge of operations, read all the comments and deleted all the comments that mentioned Kwon Ji-yong.
But it was no use. These comments would appear every few days. She had figured out the pattern. It depended on the time when the Chinese Dragons fans rushed to grab the tickets. Generally speaking, after failing to grab the tickets, they would come to her and throw a tantrum like crazy.
The assistant said: It’s useless to ask her, she can’t get the ticket either~
Then, Song Yu’s fans discovered the situation while on patrol and immediately “called the police”. They quickly tagged her to come out and deal with the matter, and also scolded Dog Studio for its inaction.
Assistant Huahua is used to it.
However, the fans of Long in the comment section mentioned why the concert was held during the Qingming Festival holiday in April. She also asked Boss Song in confusion: "Why did my brother-in-law hold a concert during the Qingming Festival?"
Do they celebrate this festival too?
He received a mysterious smile from his boss, Song, and said something that sounded a bit neurotic, "Well... he must have had his fortune told!"
Tell your own fortune ~ One of the lessons I learned from 25 Zhilong.
I once wrote down a key point in my notebook about my visit to 2025: "Don't hold the Gaoyang show on those two days, or you and your fans will freeze to death!"
Assistant: "Huh?"
That’s amazing! My brother-in-law has become so superstitious after coming to China?
However, during the two-day weekend at the end of March, I finally got the answers to my questions.
Seeing that it was snowing in South Korea at this time of year, with the temperature plummeting to below zero, rain and snow in the morning and strong winds in the afternoon, "it was extreme weather."
Fortunately, Kwon Ji-yong is not performing this weekend.
"Sister Yu...you should go, right?" the young assistant asked uncertainly in a low voice.
This is Kwon Ji-yong's first tour after his return after seven years. No matter how you look at it, this first concert is very memorable.
There's no way Song Yu wouldn't go, right?
Then I thought again that she might not go.
Assistant Huahua always feels that Song Yu and Quan Zhilong's public admission of their relationship is like an illusion that it is public, but not really public...
Maybe it's because apart from the lifting of the ban on their relationship on social media accounts, these two people are no different from before, and they are not like other couples in the domestic entertainment industry who secretly show off their relationship to death.
It feels like the report from D agency at the beginning of the year was just a dream.
They don't play by the rules!
After hearing this, Song Yu chuckled and said nothing. She would know in April.
At that time, thanks to her boss, she would also be there.
It was magical. Standing in the Gaoyang field again, Song Yu felt like he was playing the game again.
It was obvious that they had just finished watching the two-day concert below. Although they were invisible to the public, their five senses were still there and they were shivering with cold during the whole process.
More than a year after returning, Song Yu was alone in the audience, watching it again.
Quan Zhilong became the performer on the stage.
However, this time, the assistant Huahua who came along showed the same excitement in her eyes as the fans below.
The comeback premiere at Quan Zhilong's Goyang venue was an open-air venue that was like a boiling ocean of joy. The cheers of the crowd under the night sky were like surging waves, one after another, and the dazzling lights on the stage intertwined to create a shocking atmosphere.
People around him sighed: "It really feels different to be there."
I was able to come to Korea with my boss on salary and see Kwon Ji-Dong’s concert. This job was worth it.
There is no happier CP fan than her!
Song Yu specially put on delicate light makeup today, with her long, smooth hair casually draped over her shoulders. She appeared in the venue in a low-key manner, but her outstanding temperament could not be concealed. Her interaction with the Quan family attracted the attention of many people present.
Quan Damei could see that Song Yu felt a little uncomfortable with the increased attention, so she took her to the backstage quietly.
It was not until just before the event officially started that Song Yu quietly appeared again in the seats for entertaining artist friends.
In fact, the moment she appeared, she was caught by the eyes of people in the venue. This was the first time that Song Yu appeared at his concert after she and Kwon Ji-yong made their relationship public.
It was within everyone's expectations.
But compared to this eye-catching relationship, tonight's concert is enough to make everyone forget the fun of eating melons.
No matter who they are, they can't stop the enthusiasm of the people watching the performance.
Finally, after seven years, I saw Kwon Ji-yong's concert again. The people at the scene were only thinking about the upcoming stage, and everything else was just a passing thought.
As the performance progressed, Song Yu learned that Cai Lin would be the special guest on stage tonight to sing in the chorus.
Dressed in a cool black suit, he stood on stage with Kwon Ji-yong and sang their collaboration song "The Leader".
Accompanied by the screams of the audience, Song Yu in the stands subconsciously took out her mobile phone and gently pressed the shutter button to freeze the scene of their chorus forever.
In the photo, both of them were captured with confident smiles on their faces.
Tonight is not only Kwon Ji-Dragon’s first concert, but also the final episode of the show “Good Day”.
Based on the future he learned, Kwon Ji-yong changed the format of the program and the time of the first concert.
I didn't consider any meaning of the date, but after going around in circles, I happened to meet on the same day.
Song Yu sighed: "What kind of metaphysical coincidence is this!"
Taotao left, and after the world line was repaired, did that metaphysical sense of destiny still continue to affect them?
.
The two-day carnival of the Gaoyang concert came to a temporary end at the end of the next night.
Without the cold weather affecting his performance, Quan Zhilong sang to a level that satisfied him, and he also used the high-tech elements prepared for this purpose with satisfaction.
Compared to the satisfaction of the original host, the first group of people who experienced withdrawal symptoms after watching the concert were the audience.
At 12 o'clock in the morning, Korean time, the fans who returned from the performance were still unable to contain their excitement.
From the short offline video they saw, they knew that Quan Zhilong had already driven away from the scene.
What surprised everyone was that Song Yu posted an update about Kwon Ji-yong on her IG account for the first time.
Among the pictures, there are pictures of the concert and photos with Cailin at the celebration party. Although Quan Zhilong's face is not shown, they have seen each other in the updates posted on other people's accounts.
It is confirmed that both of them were present that night.
Song Yu's pictures and texts were probably posted intentionally later than others, in order to wait until both games were over.
Does sister-in-law care about the feelings of her fans?
They don't know.
Song Yu captioned the post: "From now on, it will be a good day!"
Just a few words, thinking of the first concert and the end of the day's show, are a double entendre.
Half an hour later, Quan Zhilong added his likes and comments.
"Me too~", as can be seen from the text, it is said in a coquettish tone.
It can be seen that this man has been holding back for a long time, and finally he can interact with his girlfriend openly (hang up), it’s flirting~
The answer-and-answer interaction between the man and the woman made everyone understand that the meaning was: their future will be good days!
