Peninsula: It’s just a dream, are you serious?

Chapter 577 Kim Tae-yeon Arrives

"Aigoo, Director Chen came to greet me in person."

Hearing this, Chen Yan looked at the pretty figure in front of him and smiled gently.

“Nunna came to JYP, how could I not come to welcome him in person?”

The petite figure took off her mask, revealing a fair and lovely face, and wrinkled her small upturned nose at Chen Yan.

"Then we'll have to trouble Director Chen."

Chen Yan blinked: "Is there a reward?"

Kim Tae-yeon smiled and shook her head: "No, this was your own choice, wasn't it? I didn't ask you to come down and pick me up."

Today she wore a beige knitted cardigan over a low-cut white T-shirt, her delicate collarbones were faintly visible, and her fair skin on her chest was quite eye-catching.

It's not bulging, but it's very white.

She wore high-waisted jeans and beige high heels, which subtly elongated her legs.

What catches the eye most is that this woman is wearing round-framed glasses today, which, combined with her light blonde hair, gives her a cute and refined look.

Turning his gaze away from Kim Tae-yeon's, Chen Yan looked into her bright eyes and smiled:
"Nuna, you look beautiful in that outfit. Did you dress up especially for seeing me?"

Kim Tae-yeon, with her hands behind her back, shook her head cutely again: "No, I usually dress like this at home too. Pfft."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Chen Yan laughed along with him.

He knows exactly what this woman is like at home.

He had seen Kim Tae-yeon sitting on the sofa watching TV several times, but her hand was unconsciously picking at her toes.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

"Let's go, I'll take Nuna up there."

"Hmm~"

Kim Tae-yeon came to JYP today to record the OST for "My Love from the Star".

After the controversy surrounding the replacement of the male and female leads, the drama "My Love from the Star" finally officially announced its new cast a few days ago.

The male lead role was played by Park Hae-jin, who was originally cast as the second male lead, replacing Kim Soo-hyun, while the female lead role was played by Song Hye-kyo, replacing Jun Ji-hyun.

There's a funny little story here: Yoona also received an audition invitation for the female lead role in the drama "My Love from the Star".

Because of her significant improvement in acting in the currently airing drama "The Heirs," she has received a lot of praise from viewers.

Although Yoona still has "The Heirs" filming to do, it's nearing its end, with filming officially wrapping up in about two weeks.

This is actually similar to the estimated start date for filming of "My Love from the Star," so there is no conflict in terms of timing.

However, after much consideration, Yoona ultimately declined the audition invitation.

She had watched many versions starring Jun Ji-hyun in her past life, so she wasn't sure if she would deliberately imitate her when she acted in the role.

Moreover, she had just finished filming "The Heirs" and immediately went on to star in "My Love from the Star," which might make the audience feel a little disconnected from the story.

After explaining the reason to the production team, they expressed their understanding and ultimately invited Song Hye-kyo to play the female lead.

As for the second male lead role, which was vacated because Park Hae-jin was cast as the male lead, Lee Jun-ho from 2PM was confirmed to play the part.

With the cast finalized, the production team has set December 10th as the official start date for filming.

Although the news was officially announced a couple of days ago, Chen Yan learned about the restart of the production from Park Jae-hyun even earlier.

He also mentioned to Park Jae-hyun that he had asked Kim Hyo-rin to sing another OST.

Although Park Jae-hyun said at the beginning that he could make all the decisions about the OSTs he wrote, including the singers, he still had to let the other party know.

Park Jae-hyun said that there was no problem with that at all.

Putting aside his close relationship with Chen Yan, now that the production team has just restarted, he can't wait for everything to be completed efficiently.

Chen Yan, the singer of the OST, was found by himself, which saved the production team a lot of trouble.

Although the previously confirmed Kim Tae-yeon and the current Kim Hyo-rin are priced a bit higher than other OST singers, the benefits brought by their popularity are definitely worth the price.

So Chen Yan thought about recording the two OSTs he had on hand as soon as possible.

Next month he will be accompanying Park Jin-young to visit the judges of the Golden Disc Awards, so he won't have as much free time as he does now.

As the year draws to a close, Kim Tae-yeon and Kim Hyo-rin will also become increasingly busy, and their schedules will become more and more difficult to adjust.

That day at the Melon awards ceremony, he talked to Kim Hyo-rin about collaborating on an OST, and Starship responded very quickly.

The next morning, while Chen Yan was still sleeping with Lee Ji-eun in his arms, he received a call from Kim Shidai, the president of Starship Entertainment.

There's no reason for them not to agree.

When Jin Shidai received the report from SISTAR's manager, he was subconsciously stunned for a moment. The first thing he did when he got to work the next day was to call Chen Yan.

He expressed his gratitude to Chen Yan for inviting Kim Hyo-rin to collaborate over the phone, and said he would cooperate with Chen Yan's recording schedule.

The collaboration was quickly finalized, and Chen Yan has been working hard to finish the OST "Goodbye" these past two days. He has also contacted Kim Young-min to inquire about Kim Tae-yeon's schedule.

Kim Young-min was very accommodating, giving Kim Tae-yeon her entire day to come to JYP to record an OST.

Reaching out to press the floor button for the composition department, Chen Yan turned to look at Kim Tae-yeon beside him.

Has Noona ever been to JYP before?

Kim Tae-yeon recalled for a moment and shook her head: "No, I was a non-public trainee. When the trainees from my company went to other companies to exchange and learn from their trainees, I didn't go."

In the early days, Peninsula Entertainment Company would regularly hold trainee exchange events, inviting trainees from other companies to exchange and learn from their own.

Therefore, most of the outstanding trainees from various companies knew each other, and many became friends as a result. However, this tradition gradually disappeared over time.

"Oh."

Chen Yan nodded and smiled, "Should I show Nuna around the company first?"

Kim Tae-yeon blinked: "Can I go to your office and take a look?"

The layouts of entertainment companies are all pretty much the same. Compared to other places, what she was most interested in was actually the place where her husband usually worked.

"Alright, then take Nuna to my office."

"Ding"

The elevator doors slowly opened on the composition department floor, and the two stepped out of the elevator. Chen Yan led Kim Tae-yeon toward his office.

On the way, they encountered several staff members who, upon seeing Chen Yan, immediately bowed respectfully and said, "Director-nim."

While bowing, he glanced curiously at Kim Tae-yeon next to Chen Yan.

It's quite a rare sight for someone to come to their company.

Chen Yan smiled and returned the greeting.

Kim Tae-yeon, who was standing next to her, smiled and returned the greeting.

Reaching the office door, Chen Yan pushed it open.

Kim Tae-yeon followed him inside, curiously glancing around the office.

"Wow, our Director Chen's office is really nice."

With her hands behind her back, she kept looking around as if she were surveying her own territory before finally walking to the chair in front of the desk and sitting down.

"Okay, from now on, Xiaoyan, your position is mine."

"So what should I do in the future?"

Chen Yan leaned against the desk and smiled at the older woman.

Kim Tae-yeon smiled with narrowed eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "Well, you'll be my secretary from now on." "Okay, then I'll have to trouble Director Kim to take good care of me from now on."

The two exchanged a few jokes, then Kim Tae-yeon blinked and suddenly spoke:
"Xiao Yan, your office doesn't usually get frequented by many female celebrities from the company, does it?"

Chen Yan paused for a moment, then said, "Um, let me count them."

After saying that, he actually raised his hand, as if he were counting on his fingers.

"Mo?!"

When Kim Tae-yeon saw his serious expression, her eyes widened in surprise.

She was just asking jokingly, but she didn't expect there to actually be some, and it looked like quite a lot.

This bastard must have a death wish.

A hint of a smile flashed in Chen Yan's eyes, and he knew when to stop: "I was just kidding, noona. Apart from Suzy, no female celebrity has ever been to my office."

Kim Tae-yeon pouted: "Hmph, that's more like it."

The two didn't stay in the office for long and quickly got up and left for the recording studio where they would be recording the OST for the day.

Entering the recording studio, Chen Yan closed the door, turned around and smiled at the charming and lovely older sister, then reached out and pulled Kim Tae-yeon's soft body into his arms.

Their eyes met for a second before he lowered his head and kissed her pink lips.

Kim Tae-yeon also cooperated by standing on tiptoe and hooking her arm around her man's neck.

After a long while, their lips slowly parted.

Kim Tae-yeon pursed her moist lips and looked at Chen Yan with a smile in her eyes.

"What do you mean by this, Director Chen? I'm here to work today."

Chen Yan blinked: "Nuna, I'm doing this for work."

Is kissing me part of your job?

"This is just to test Nuna's lung capacity, to prepare for the recording later."

Kim Tae-yeon couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this, giving him a reproachful look: "So, is my lung capacity up to standard?"

"It's not just meeting the standards, it's practically perfect."

"Tch, you're such a smooth talker."

After a brief moment of tenderness, the two released each other.

I do have important business to attend to today, and I cannot let personal matters interfere with public duties.

Just as Chen Yan was about to walk towards the recording console, a "click" sound suddenly rang out behind him.

After locking the recording studio door, Kim Tae-yeon turned to meet her man's questioning gaze and blinked.

"I don't like being disturbed when I'm recording, so I usually lock the door."

"Oh~"

Chen Yan raised an eyebrow and drew out his words, which earned him a coquettish rebuke from Kim Tae-yeon.

The two walked to the recording booth and sat down.

"Nuna, let me adjust the equipment first, and you can familiarize yourself with the lyrics."

"Good~"

Kim Tae-yeon picked up the lyrics sheet next to her, got up and walked to the side, singing as she looked at the lyrics sheet.

Actually, she often listened to the song "My Destiny" in her past life and was quite familiar with it. She had also watched the drama "My Love from the Star".

Now I'm interpreting this song according to my own singing style, which is quite interesting.

A dozen minutes later, Chen Yan finished setting up the equipment, and Kim Tae-yeon walked into the recording studio.

After making one last adjustment, she gestured to Chen Yan outside, indicating that she was ready.

Chen Yan nodded and began recording.

The intro to "My Destiny" started playing in Chen Yan's headphones, and a few seconds later, Kim Tae-yeon's emotionally charged voice filled Chen Yan's headphones.

Upon hearing this voice, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.

I have to say, listening to this woman sing is a truly enjoyable experience; the moment she opens her mouth, she immediately captivates your ears.

Ballads are definitely one of this sister's domains.

After all, the title "woman who has been divorced eight times" is not given lightly.

And don't forget, the Kim Tae-yeon in the recording studio at this moment is a reborn version, possessing more refined singing skills and a more mature ability to evoke emotions than in her previous life.

With her peak vocal condition, excellent singing skills, and emotional control, Kim Tae-yeon at this moment can be considered to be at her strongest.

Time slipped away unnoticed during the recording of the song.

"Okay, let's stop recording here for now, Nuna. Take a break and we'll continue this afternoon."

After recording another line, seeing that it was already past 11 o'clock, Chen Yan called a timely halt to the recording.

"Good~"

Kim Tae-yeon took off her headphones, walked out of the recording studio with light steps, and sat down next to Chen Yan.

"How was it? Not bad, right?"

Chen Yan smiled and said, "It's more than just good. Recording songs with Nuna is a real treat. If every singer I worked with was like Nuna, I would be overjoyed."

More than two hours have passed, and the recording process for this OST is already more than halfway complete.

This was the result of Kim Tae-yeon's own meticulous attention to detail, and her occasional breaks to rest her voice.

Kim Tae-yeon blinked upon hearing this: "So, what was it like when you recorded a song for Yoona before?"

"."

Chen Yan was slightly taken aback and gave her a speechless look.

This older sister is mischievous!

"Hahahaha"

The cheerful laughter of the middle-aged woman instantly filled the entire recording studio.

In fact, Kim Tae-yeon is quite satisfied with her current state.

Even when recording the song just now, she sometimes had to limit her requests.

"Nuna, what do you want to eat for lunch?"

Chen Yan saved the recording file, then turned to Kim Tae-yeon and asked.
