Previously, this entertainment news program's New Year's Eve gala or major holiday live streams only had a maximum of about 10,000 viewers online.
Today's sudden surge in data is three times higher than the peak number of online users!
Furthermore, the real-time viewership has increased from 0.3% to 0.7%.
It is gradually approaching the 1% viewership mark!
A viewership rating of one percent is already the viewership rating of a typical Korean drama series!
The ratings of a morning news program.
If it can really rival the ratings of consecutively broadcast Korean dramas, then that would truly be a miracle!
Therefore.
Kwon Yong-soon's first thought was that SBS television station had been hacked again.
Perhaps the other party deliberately manipulated these viewership data in an attempt to play a prank?
Kwon Yong-soon then hurriedly picked up the phone and dialed the number of the department under the Hanseong Broadcasting and Communications Bureau responsible for collecting viewership data.
Confirm with the other party whether the ratings of the program you are watching are indeed problematic.
"Hello, the viewership data we found for all SBS-owned television stations is correct."
"Apart from some unusual fluctuations in the E-Television channel, everything is normal."
"But this fluctuation wasn't caused by illegal means; it's genuinely due to an increase in audience numbers..."
The broadcasting operator on the other end of the phone was clearly startled by the fluctuation in the ratings of this morning entertainment news program, and after confirming several times, gave a firm reply.
"Phew~"
After confirming that the abnormal viewership data was not caused by a hacker intrusion, producer Kwon Yong-soon finally sat down and breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he immediately became curious again.
Since the significant fluctuations in viewership were not caused by any illegal external factors.
What could be the reason?
If we find the root cause, wouldn't we be able to use the same methods to improve the show's ratings in the future?
Thinking about this.
Quan Yongshun hurriedly found the news report that female anchor Li Youzhen had just read.
They also began to look for possible reasons based on the periods when viewership ratings rose.
Ultimately, his gaze fell upon the news report about Wang Yueheng that had been interrupted by a sudden broadcast.
"Could it be... that the ratings suddenly saw such a dramatic increase just because Wang Yueheng was mentioned?"
"Is everyone waiting to watch Wang Yueheng's performance tonight?"
Quan Yongshun stared wide-eyed at the news article in his hand, his mind completely blank.
He has heard a lot of news about this singer from China recently.
But unexpectedly, the other party has already gained such a great influence without ever having been to South Korea!
Even niche morning entertainment news programs saw a surge in viewership because of one of his news stories!
If only we could livestream their entire performance...
The scene of overwhelming popularity is simply unimaginable!
In an instant.
A bold idea popped into producer Quan Yongshun's mind.
I must immediately find the channel leader and request that they secure the live broadcast rights for Psy's (Park Jae-hyun's) overseas performance!
Especially the broadcasting rights for the footage of Wang Yueheng's appearance!
If possible, I will ask my supervisor to grant me extra airtime for the news program I'm participating in!
Thinking of this, Quan Yongshun, who was unable to leave his post, quickly picked up his phone and urgently edited a short message.
The relevant information was sent to Kim PD, the director of the "Shining Star Show," Kim Nam-ji.
Now it all depends on whether the director can secure a broadcast opportunity!
...
"Did you write this song last night?"
"Great fortune..."
After leading IU back to his dressing room, Wang Yueheng handed the girl a sheet of sheet music with his new song written on it.
Unaware of what was going on, IU took the sheet music and glanced at it.
I was immediately captivated by the melody of this song.
Being able to read sheet music and sing songs is the most basic requirement that most entertainment agencies require of their trainees.
With musical talent that surpasses that of other trainees, the diligent and studious IU even taught herself to write songs.
Occasionally, he would hold a guitar and sing some of his own original songs.
But in the face of Wang Yueheng's new song.
IU suddenly realized that compared to Wang Yueheng, her musical talent was like the difference between a sesame seed and an elephant.
Even if I racked my brains and spent more than ten years or even a lifetime, I probably couldn't write a song that Wang Yueheng could compose in one night!
"But the title of this song seems a bit similar to a song by Park Jae-hyun..."
"...Would it collide?"
Staring at the sheet music in her hand, IU thought for a long time before coming up with a suitable word.
The song I'm going to learn to sing is full of Chinese cultural flavor.
It seems that Wang Yueheng specially prepared this performance for Psy today...
My first impression of IU was that it was like a head-on collision of two different national pop cultures.
Like the two poles of a magnet, they are completely incompatible.
"Indeed, but the types are quite different. Consider this a bit of background information for South Koreans who don't know much about China."
Wang Yueheng stood to the side, smiling, and casually responded.
"Yue Heng, I heard that the internet in South Korea is in an uproar over your appearance on Psy's show tonight..."
"Even a morning entertainment news program broke its ratings record just because it mentioned your performance tonight."
"I was just contacted by SBS, a South Korean television station, asking if they could obtain broadcasting rights for your performance."
Then Mo Zixue walked over with her phone in hand and said with a smile.
Having performed so many times, Mo Zixue no longer worries about any news before the show affecting Wang Yueheng's mood.
The other party can calmly perform even in front of terrorists, let alone gossip news like this.
"Really? That's exactly the effect I wanted."
Upon hearing this news, Wang Yueheng's lips curled up slightly.
"In that case, let's get to the rehearsals right away."
"I will try my best to give my South Korean fans a different kind of performance, with IU by my side."
Wang Yueheng glanced at Lin Zhien, who was still engrossed in the sheet music, and then signaled to the band members to get ready and begin rehearsing the new song for the evening.
Besides quickly teaching IU how to sing the new song...
He also plans to continue using holographic projection technology to design a new music video for tonight's final performance in London.
soon.
Melodious tunes drifted faintly from the lounge.
Fortunately, IU had a foundation in learning Mandarin, so learning this Mandarin song didn't seem too difficult for her.
All you need to do is follow Wang Yueheng's guidance and grasp the emotion and melody of each verse.
With her musical talent and naturally sweet voice.
Following Wang Yueheng's instructions, IU quickly found herself in her best condition, and together with him, they sang the new song.
An hour and a half passed in the blink of an eye.
As the hour hand on the clock slowly points to the 12 position.
The moment has finally arrived for tonight's K-pop music extravaganza to begin.
