Peninsula: I'm the Top Streamer

Chapter 325 Forced into the Palace
After this night, Kim Ji-soo was seen the next day in much better condition. She quickly adjusted herself and caught up with the filming progress.

The time for the broadcast is getting closer and closer.

During this period, the AAA awards ceremony was also broadcast. As the first well-known awards ceremony at the end of the year, it was a preemptive move and attracted considerable attention.

But this year's AAA still couldn't escape the same criticism as last year.

The live broadcast quality is terrible, only slightly better than last year's mosaic quality, not much better at all.

The second major point of criticism was that too many people flocked to the live broadcast, resulting in instability. Too many people flocked to the live broadcast on the Korean side at once, resulting in disconnection. In the end, the progress was not as fast as the live broadcast on the Japanese side, which was an hour and a half faster than this side, causing a considerable number of viewers to flock to the online live broadcast on the Japanese side.

Koreans can watch the results of the Korean award ceremony online on Neon TV.

Of course, there was another round of quarrels within the fan circle regarding the award itself.

The most controversial award was given to Twice for winning the Singer of the Year Award, which was questioned and criticized by BTS fans. However, the controversy was limited. After all, it was not a particularly important award, so the argument was not that heated. It was reasonable for Twice to win it.

The two most popular couples in AAA are Kim Soo Hyun and Seo Ye Ji, and Kwon Hyun Hyuk and Lee Sung Kyung. In terms of CP popularity alone, Kwon Hyun Hyuk ranks first.

The press release was released promptly and hotly.

The most popular Korean drama CP is Kwon Hyun Hyuk and Lee Sung Kyung from "Romantic Doctor Kim 2". They both won the Best Actor Award and posted a behind-the-scenes photo after the ceremony.

Lee Sung-kyung posted: "I won an award together with Woo-jin! I am so happy to have received such a cool award together this year. Thank you to all the fans who have always loved the Romantic Doctor crew and Eun-jae and Woo-jin."

Netizens commented under the photo, saying, "They're such a perfect match!" and "I beg them to work together again." This handsome doctor duo is so sweet!

Looking back at the whole year, the CP of the two is indeed among the best in many Korean dramas, and their popularity and fan love are both counted this year.

After AAA, the scene was quite lively for a while, and it also warmed up the atmosphere for the MAMA that would be broadcast in the next few days. Fans from all groups took their places one by one.

The excitement in the online world did not affect the crew. It is already December and the show is only a few days away from being broadcast. Kpop is lively, but the popularity in the Korean drama circle has not diminished at all.

"Act 4, cut."

After the scene ended, the two people who were about to take a break to rehearse the next scene saw an unexpected visitor.

Ha Seok-gun came to the set in person.

Quan Xuanhe was a little surprised by his arrival, but his face was full of surprise and welcome.

"He looks very handsome, like a high school student. Nice face."

Ha Seok-gun smiled warmly when he saw Kwon Hyun-hyuk, and spoke in a very familiar manner with him.

The term "face praise" is quite ancient. Quan Xuanhe didn't understand what it sounded like, and he just knew that it was a compliment to him based on the literal meaning of the word.

However, Kim Ji-soo's reaction was much colder when she saw Ha Seok-gun's arrival.

Kwon Hyun Hyuk looked at Ha Seok Gun's arrival and seemed to be able to sense a strong signal.

Force the palace.

"How was it? I haven't even been to see you filming, so I guess it was a pleasant collaboration, right?"

In the lounge, Ha Seok-gun looked at the two with a smile, his tone bright and cheerful. "The filming is going smoothly. Now we just have to wait for the broadcast."

"Yes."

"The Penthouse has had good ratings recently. Will this affect your ratings?"

Top floor.

It happened to be aired at the end of October this year. Everyone who knows about this drama is very familiar with it. The plot is nothing new, but it is exciting and seductive and makes people want to keep watching it. It has almost firmly captured the hearts of aunts and even some young people. The ratings have been rising all the way, and the popularity on the Internet is also not low. Famous scenes are one after another.

It was a huge hit that suddenly came out at the end of the year, and it was released halfway around the same time as "True Beauty", so it's not surprising that Ha Seok-gun asked this question.

"It's actually not that bad. The subject matter is different, and the timing is different, so the impact isn't that big."

Quan Xuanhe understood what the situation would be like after the broadcast, so he answered with confidence at this time.

Ha Seok-gun shifted his gaze to Kwon Hyun-hyuk, smiled after hearing what he said, and then turned his gaze back to Kim Ji-soo.

"I'm relieved to see that the filming went smoothly for you two."

"Actually, you two know about this. I also know that Jisoo and Hyunhyuk's companies are thinking about it."

"But it won't be airing for long, and there's so much competition..."

What followed was self-evident, and Kim Ji-soo couldn't quite listen.

"As for publicity, our company will also be responsible for Xuan He's publicity. It's actually a very good thing."

Kwon Hyun Hyuk actually doesn't quite understand what YG's purpose is in doing this. His biggest guess is that YG wants to use this to influence Kim Ji-soo's development path.

It doesn't necessarily have to be threatening marketing, saying that you want to drive away Kim Ji-soo's boyfriend fans just to suppress them or something like that. This is useful, but not very useful.

Blackpink's Jennie was once exposed to be in a relationship, and of course other members also had some negative news or complaints, but they were still managed flawlessly by YG, or even turned from black to red.

Lisa's appearance on the Crazy Horse show once caused controversy in South Korea, but it was completely suppressed. The so-called forum post was deleted as soon as it appeared. That is, after the official announcement of not renewing the contract, YG stopped paying much attention, and the controversy in South Korea began to ferment.

There are also issues such as Jisoo's lack of solo talent and Jennie's personal controversies. Some of them are hardly discussed in Korea, while others have not fermented and have not been put at the center of public discussion. Is it really true that no one noticed?
He is indeed an expert in controlling public opinion in fan circles.

The hype of the relationship is actually just a marketing tactic. The plan given to the two of them clearly stated that after the broadcast contract period ends, the contract can be terminated at any time based on the specific response.

Therefore, Ha Seok-gun was very dissatisfied when he learned that Kwon Hyun-hyuk's opinions were conservative.

You are not willing to take the bonus, so isn't it a piece of cake for me to give you the marketing business and establish this cooperative relationship?
Therefore, Kwon Hyun Hyuk is facing multiple pressures from his own company, YG represented by Ha Seok Gun, Dior represented by Liu Hongzhen, and even the drama production company and the TV station.

That’s why it’s complicated, that’s why it’s tangled.

"right?"

Ha Seok-gun looked at the two of them with a smile. On the surface, his smile seemed normal, but in fact, he brought pressure to the two of them.
