Peninsula: My mentor Kim Tae-yeon

Chapter 16 Culture Shock

After Su Li left, Kim Tae-yeon couldn't wait to speak.

"Your performance just now was excellent; you've already mastered thirty percent of my skills."

Su Xia glanced at Kim Tae-yeon.

"But the audience said, you're not as good as me."

Kim Tae-yeon: "?"

Her face turned red.

"That's just his imagination!"

"But he said you're old, and you can't deny it."

Kim Taeyeon: "(งᵒ̌ᵒ̌)ง⁼³₌₃"

"Have you even witnessed my peak performance? Don't tell me!"

"I've never seen them before." Su Xia shook her head. "You don't need to be so resistant. A disciple doesn't have to be inferior to his master. The fact that your students are worse than you shows your teaching ability and discerning eye, doesn't it?"

"That seems to make sense." Kim Tae-yeon fell into deep thought.

"Right? So when Su Li said you're not as good as me, she was actually praising you in a roundabout way."

"That makes sense." Kim Tae-yeon nodded in agreement. "But I'm really good at it. You can watch the video if you don't believe me."

"Let's go back and review it first."

Upon hearing Su Xia mention serious matters, Kim Tae-yeon finally suppressed her resentment.

"Overall, there aren't any major problems, just a few minor details. First of all..."

Su Xia held her phone, watching the replay of the video, and sat on the floor listening to Kim Tae-yeon's debriefing.

"You can do this position better. Press your fingers against your chin, like this," Kim Tae-yeon demonstrated to Su Xia.

"You're still a bit reserved. Since you're imitating my habits to dance, then don't think of yourself as a boy. Just follow my ideas completely," Kim Tae-yeon said.

"You make it sound so easy. I'm a grown man, and you want me to do this kind of thing? Isn't that just plain sissy?" Su Xia said speechlessly.

"How could you be effeminate? Gay men and effeminate men have very obvious characteristics. You look like a normal man, but when you dance, you show movements that are synchronized with mine. That's the contrast, that's the selling point."

Su Xia looked at her fingers, still somewhat hesitant.

She carefully touched her chin, looked at her somewhat... well, alluring self in the mirror, and felt like crying.

In the end, did I become the most despised person?

Dear Sister Tian, ​​I'm starting to understand you.

I also dried myself in silence...

Kim Tae-yeon's debriefings are always as precise as a sharp blade, cutting straight to the point. This is the valuable experience she has gained from more than 20 years of experience as an entertainer.

After Kim Tae-yeon's review, Su Xia began the final stage of practice.

At this stage, all that's needed is to complete these final details before we can begin the official recording.

Just as Su Xia finished practicing again, Su Li's voice rang out once more.

"Hey buddy, I've got your card sorted out."

"Tell him about the recording studio and backup dancers," Kim Tae-yeon said to Su Xia as soon as she saw Su Li arrive.

Su Xia nodded imperceptibly.

"Hey bro, do you know where I can find a recording studio?"

"A recording studio? You want to record a song?"

"Yeah, I'd like to try my hand at social media and make a cover of Taeyeon's 'Why'. I'll handle the audio and dance," Su Xia explained.

"A friend of mine opened a recording studio; I'll recommend him to you later."

"Thanks."

"It was just something I did."

"There's one more thing," Su Xia paused, "I want to replicate Taeyeon's stage performance here, and I need four male dancers and four female dancers. Can you help me find them? I'm willing to pay."

"What fee?" Su Li waved her hand with a smile. "Leave the personnel to me. All you need to do is post the video and collaborate with our studio's official account."

"No problem." Su Xia immediately agreed, as this was still a win-win situation.

"So when do you plan to record?"

"It'll be in the next couple of days. On weekdays, I can only come after 5:30."

"Okay, I'll go arrange it right away." Su Li gave an OK sign and turned to call for help.

"Your fellow villager is quite efficient; perhaps we could hire him as a manager in the future," Kim Tae-yeon said to Su Xia, watching Su Li's retreating figure.

"Let's talk about it after I become famous." Su Xia was puzzled by Kim Tae-yeon's confidence that he would definitely become famous. Was it really that easy to become famous?

"ah!!!"

A pig-like scream suddenly rang out, coming from a distance and startling Su Xia.

"What happened? Was someone killed?" Su Xia walked out of the practice room curiously and looked toward the source of the sound.

A row of boys and girls were doing leg stretches, and the coach was pressing down on one of the boys.

Screams of agony emanated from the boy's mouth.

"This is a beginner practicing leg stretches to improve flexibility," Kim Tae-yeon said after a quick glance.

Su Xia was a little confused. Did it really hurt that much?

"Why didn't I feel anything at the time?"

"Your situation is rather special, perhaps because of me. You don't need to waste too much time stretching your legs to improve flexibility, as you already have sufficient flexibility," Kim Tae-yeon explained.

Su Xia looked at the girls stretching their legs on the ground, and a question suddenly popped into his mind. He glanced at Kim Tae-yeon, and he, who usually spoke his mind, hesitated for a moment.

"What do you want to ask?" Kim Tae-yeon noticed Su Xia's expression and was quite surprised.

Are there still questions that Su Xia dares not ask?

"This question is a bit perverted. I think if I ask it, you'll laugh at me for the rest of my life," Su Xia said expressionlessly.

"Tell me about it, and I promise I won't laugh at you," Kim Tae-yeon said, holding up three fingers as a vow.

"You said it yourself."

Kim Tae-yeon raised her head slightly.

"When a girl stretches her legs like that, while stretching her ligaments, she might also tear some of the body's structures in her private parts, right?" Su Xia described her question tactfully.

Kim Tae-yeon was taken aback. After processing Su Xia's question for a moment, she laughed.

"Is that what you wanted to ask? Dancing does tear that membrane. You can just ask directly. What's so perverted about this kind of physiological knowledge? You're twenty-four years old. Why are adults so shy about talking about this?"

Su Xia looked at Kim Tae-yeon blankly.

Isn't this script wrong?

Why aren't you ashamed?

"Why would you feel ashamed?" Kim Tae-yeon looked at Su Xia, puzzled. "Physiological knowledge is scientific knowledge. We learn this kind of thing from a young age. Isn't it common sense?"

"Learned from a young age?" Su Xia was dumbfounded. "We don't teach this. At most, the teacher might mention it briefly in junior high biology, but we never study it in depth."

"Didn't your parents teach you?" Kim Tae-yeon was stunned and asked the fundamental question.

One person, one soul, staring at each other with wide eyes.

After a while.

"So, where did you learn your physiological knowledge from?"

"I learned it all on my own, mostly from small websites and sneaky chats with classmates," Su Xia said honestly.

Kim Tae-yeon: "..."

She experienced a culture shock.
