Peninsula: My mentor Kim Tae-yeon

Will Su Xia also attend Jessica's Hong Kong Coliseum concert starting next week?

As a fan of Kim Tae-yeon and a cover artist specializing in singing and dancing, if I were to appear at Jessica Jung's concert, the buzz would instantly explode.

Many people believe this is possible, since online bloggers tend to flock to whatever is trending.

But most people still feel it's not very realistic.

Su Xia doesn't know what the relationship is between Kim Tae-yeon and Jessica Jung. What if she makes things worse?

If this provokes responses from both sides, Su Xia will be plunged into despair.

Both sides have their own opinions on this point, but as long as there is discussion, there will be buzz, and with buzz, CJ MCN's goal will be achieved.

On the morning of July 12th, Jessica held her first concert at the Hong Kong Coliseum.

Su Xia returned to Hong Kong a week later. She had never been to Hong Kong and Macau in the first half of her life, but now she had come twice in just one week.

Putting everything else aside, she's definitely got the hang of being a travel influencer.

"You're about to meet your old teammates, are you nervous?" Su Xia casually swiped her phone and said to Kim Tae-yeon, who was intently watching the screen.

He didn't want to use his phone, but Kim Tae-yeon did.

"Don't be nervous, she can't see me anyway," Kim Tae-yeon said without looking up, continuing to stare at her phone screen, adding, "Slide slowly."

"Oh." Su Xia slowed down her sliding motion.

The van drove into the Hong Kong Coliseum, the scenery outside the window kept receding, and finally stopped outside the entrance passage.

"Get off at the stop." Su Xia quickly put her phone away.

"Hey, you!" Kim Tae-yeon hadn't finished reading the news yet, but since her phone was in Su Xia's hand, he had already put it away and gotten out of the car.

No matter how unwilling Kim Tae-yeon was, she had no choice but to get out of the car.

Led by the staff, they soon arrived at the concert stage, where Su Xia met Jessica Jung, the former lead singer of Girls' Generation.

The signs of aging are not obvious on female celebrities, but it is clear that the woman in front of us is somewhat different in appearance from the Jessica Jung that Su Xia met in the video.

Just as the Kim Tae-yeon beside me is different from the one eating Thai lamb in the video, the Jessica Jung in front of me looks more mature and beautiful, but that aloof feeling has been replaced by a sense of approachability.

The ice princess of yesteryear has now blossomed into a mature beauty.

"Hello, Su Xia." Jessica Jung didn't put on any airs and greeted Su Xia with an impeccable smile.

"Hello Jessica-xi," Su Xia replied, glancing at Kim Tae-yeon beside her out of the corner of her eye.

At this moment, Kim Tae-yeon was looking Jessica Jung up and down, who couldn't see her. She moved closer to Jessica Jung, looking her up and down, and occasionally raising her hand to make some gestures.

This scene made Su Xia's eyelids twitch.

"You've lost weight."

Kim Tae-yeon stroked her chin, stopped directly opposite Jessica Jung, and suddenly spoke.

"She's lost a lot of weight since the last time I saw her."

[Are you her mother? The first thing she said when we met was that she'd lost weight.]

Su Xia suppressed the urge to complain and said to Jessica Jung, "Rehearsal time is precious, shall we start right away?"

Jessica Jung was taken aback. She, the main character, wasn't in a hurry, so why was Su Xia more anxious than her?

However, it's actually a good thing that Su Xia has a sense of time, which means he's not a difficult guest to deal with.

After all, she was sent here by the client, so she would feel more comfortable if she could get along with him.

"Okay, let's get started." Jessica Jung readily agreed.

"Give me a microphone," Su Xia said, turning to the staff member and reaching out her hand.

"Su Xia doesn't have her own microphone?" Jessica Jung asked in surprise.

"No." Su Xia shook her head.

Jessica Jung's expression was a little strange. She had heard the live stream where Su Xia and Liz collaborated, as well as the videos Su Xia posted. Such a powerful singer didn't even mention that she had her own microphone.

"Do you need a condenser or a dynamic microphone?" the staff member asked.

Su Xia was taken aback, and just as she was about to ask what these two were, Kim Tae-yeon's voice rang out.

"The Condenser is a condenser microphone, which has better sound pickup and more delicate sound quality, making it suitable for indoor venues or concerts without an extension platform. The Dynamic is a dynamic microphone, which has poorer sound pickup but is noise-resistant, making it suitable for special environments with many people around."

After speaking, Kim Tae-yeon glanced around the room.

"I'd like the Condenser one."

Su Xia repeated it, and the staff member nodded and went to change the microphone.

When Jessica Jung heard that Su Xia wanted a condenser microphone, she couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

She was using a dynamic microphone because the venue at the Hong Kong Coliseum is quite small, and the distance between her and the audience is not far, so the fans' voices would be very loud. Using a dynamic microphone would help to block out noise.

But Su Xia chose a condenser microphone...

Before long, the staff returned and handed Su Xia a microphone whose type was not discernible from its appearance.

"Let's begin."

"OK".

Suddenly, the music of one of Kim Tae-yeon's songs, carefully selected by CJ MCN, began to play.

As soon as Jessica Jung opened her mouth, Su Xia noticed the difference between the two microphones.

During the previous live stream with Liz, since the default microphone for live streams is a condenser microphone, Su Xia didn't notice anything wrong.

But now, one of them uses a condenser microphone and the other uses a dynamic microphone. One has very clear sound details, while the other has almost no sound details. Ordinary people can't hear this difference, but singers who are sensitive to sound can easily judge the difference.

However, since this was Jessica Jung's home turf, Su Xia didn't have much to say.

As soon as she opened her mouth, Su Xia noticed something was wrong with the microphone, and Jessica Jung noticed something was wrong with Su Xia herself!

The timbre is not at all similar to that person's, but the singing style, technique, and even the little habits I remember are exactly the same. They match perfectly!

It's like this person and she look completely different, but their lifestyle, way of speaking, and style of doing things are all the same.

Are these people really not the same person?

The song ended quickly, and as soon as it ended, Su Xia was still pondering where she hadn't sung well when Jessica Jung's voice rang in her ears.

"What's your relationship with Taeyeon?"

Su Xia was taken aback and looked up at Jessica Jung.

He noticed that the other person was staring intently at him, their eyes flashing with an uncertain light, as if they were seeing someone else, not him.

"She's my idol," Su Xia lied, going against her conscience.

Jessica Jung frowned.

She knew Su Xia was lying, but the other party clearly didn't want to talk about it. Was it necessary for her to keep asking?

He stared at Su Xia for several seconds, making him feel uneasy.

After a while.

Let's continue.

Su Xia breathed a sigh of relief.

"OK".
