People on the Peninsula: I Became a Lucky Koi

Chapter 83 Explodes! #Mercedes-Benz-Door# Exposed

Chapter 85 Explodes! #Mercedes-Benz-Door# Exposed

Yesterday's tomorrow is today.

The public relations departments of Jyp and SM, two South Korean entertainment agencies, are working non-stop, preparing for the #Mercedes-Benz door incident that will occur in the early hours of tonight.

Kim Tae-yeon felt that May 30th was an exceptionally long day.

Despite the company's thorough preparations, it still faced online harassment following last year's exposure of the incident involving Bian.

I have some PTSD.

10 PM.

After finishing their recording session, the group of young people went to a nearby barbecue restaurant for a quick bite.

Huang Meiying and the others also knew what would happen tonight.

She remarked with a sigh, "That Jin Can guy, he really went all out this time."

In Huang Meiying's opinion, in just two months, this kid has almost reached the maximum level of hatred in the fan circle.

Sone, eo-L, Kim Soo-hyun's fans, and some casual observers have seen their image shattered after being labeled as "interferers" and other detractors.

"The company isn't just for sitting around doing nothing," Lee Soon-kyu shook his head.

When it comes to artists who make money, the company will still go to great lengths to defend them.

"It's just a pity about Xiao Bian—"

She chuckled teasingly.

Kim Tae-yeon glared at her upon hearing this. She was actually somewhat terrified of the upcoming #Mercedes-Benz door#, which might become KP's...

A milestone event in the history of OP.

But then I think of how that younger guy is different from Byun Baekhyun.

Kim Tae-yeon's heart gradually calmed down.

Let's all take the blame together.

Having experienced too many similar periods in her youth, she was also somewhat worried about Jin Can's mental resilience.

"By the way, what's going on between Kim Chan and Suzy?" Im Yoona took a sip of water and blinked.

She remembered Suzy and Lee Min-ho's relationship clearly.

Rumors circulated in the industry that the two had a falling out because of Jin Can's student.

Kim Tae-yeon's heart tightened: "Who knows?"

"It's probably a senior-junior relationship."

"It doesn't seem like it." Lim Yoona pursed her lips and wrinkled her nose. "They seem very close."

Hwang Mi-young nodded in agreement: "Yes, I heard from Nichkhun that in JYP, Suzy and Kim Chan are closer than their Miss A teammates."

"But it's hard to say."

"Nichkhun and Jo Kwon felt that Kim Chan was closer to the trainees in the trainee department, perhaps because they were the same age."

"·"

Time slowly passed by as the crickets chirped among them during their courtship.

Midnight.

As we enter the last day of May, most people, except for those in the fan community, won't be paying attention to entertainment news.

Jyp's idea is simple.

The news broke in the early hours of the morning, and within a night it went viral, pushing #MercedesOneDoor# to the top of the national trending topics by dawn.

With the attention of the entire nation and fans focused on him, at 10 a.m., Kim Chan's debut album was officially released on major music streaming websites, seamlessly connecting the two releases.

Byun Baekhyun is very tired today.

But he was secretly excited. He was about to finally get his revenge, because what could that JYP trainee have to compete with EO's comeback results?

He slept exceptionally well tonight.

Sweet dreams~

Just as Byun Baekhyun had fallen asleep.

In EXO's dorm.

Wu Shixun, who was flirting with his girlfriend, had just sent a short, suggestive voice message:

[Cha ge ah~ Na bo bo gu xi po yo~ bo bo hat tu yo~ (Darling, I really want to kiss you, may I kiss you?)]

The voice message is sent.

Wu Shixun waited for a reply from the other side, but it didn't even last two seconds.

Naver popped up a message that looked like a "GG" message—Wu Shixun was about to cross it out, but then he saw the label above it: [World's First Green].

Three large, brightly lit characters.

Wu Shixun clicked on the link; the post was titled "[#Mercedes-Benz Gate# 2.0, Box Office Hit!]"

[Kim Chan makes a strong debut as the male lead, Baekhyun is replaced and will not be in the second season; the female lead remains!]

"?"

Wu Shixun frowned slightly, somewhat confused.

He knew about the "Mercedes-Benz scandal" alone, which involved a huge amount of people and things, including Baekhyun and Taeyeon last year.

But this "2.0" version, with its "male lead," "second season," and "original cast," left him somewhat confused.

Slide down.

After seeing the details and pictures in the post.

Wu Shixun stared in astonishment, mouth agape. "Moragu?"

[—Everyone, I'm about to drop this melon.]

[Today's breaking news involves two of the most popular idols in the K-pop industry.]

[(picture)]

In the photo, Kim Tae-yeon is sitting in the driver's seat, wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt and without makeup.

The image is a bit blurry, but you can clearly see the license plate of the black Mercedes-Benz and the outline of Kim Tae-yeon's face.

In the passenger seat, there was a golden, slightly smiling face.

[(picture)]

A series of photos resembling comic book illustrations.

Jin Can stood under the streetlight again, and this photo was clearer.

His brown short jacket, towering height, and [world's most handsome man] face make him highly recognizable.

—After posting several photos as evidence—the poster began the written account and got to the point:

[According to a tip-off, at 23:40 PM that night, Taeyeon's Mercedes-Benz drove into a swimming pool in Seocho-gu—the two stayed there for nearly an hour.]

[Then, with his hair still damp, suggesting he had just finished showering, the two left hand in hand—]

[Byun Baekhyun confirms his title as the world's first green-haired person!]

The related text content is almost entirely fabricated by SM Entertainment. The swimming pool is real, but the time is wrong.

But with such a sensitive photo as #Mercedes-Benz door#, it's practically solid evidence. Most people will ignore the timing, and even if a very few smart people find loopholes, they can't suppress the general trend.

These fabricated locations and timelines were key to the subsequent overturning of the verdict.

Just like Wu Shixun now.

I was completely dumbfounded.

"Aigoo!" Wu Shixun hurriedly got out of bed, not even having time to return the kiss he had just received.

He opened the bedroom door.

He glanced at Park Chanyeol in the next bedroom, who was playing IoI on his computer: "Hyung!"

Something's happened.

Oh Se-hoon ripped Park Chan-yeol's headphones off.

Park Chanyeol was about to yell at him, but when he saw him waving his phone screen, he looked surprised.

1 minute later.

He finished reading it.

Five minutes later, the other people in the dormitory who were still awake gathered in the living room.

Wu Shixun lit a cigarette and glanced at Baekhyun's tightly closed bedroom door.

With a click of the tongue, I exclaimed, "Taeyeon noona, are you not even going to act anymore?"

"The public opinion is going to explode!" Du Baoxiu said.

The Mercedes issue is too sensitive, mainly because this vehicle existed when Baekhyun and Taeyeon were exposed last year.

It's just a matter of new generations replacing the old.

Kai clicked his tongue: "Can Baekhyun really put up with this?"

"Have you forgotten about the magazine collaboration?" Park Chanyeol glanced at him.

But after thinking about it, he walked to Byun Baekhyun's bedroom door, pushed it open, and prepared to tell him about it.

Kim Junmyeon, the team leader, walked over.

He stood at the door, glanced at Byun Baekhyun who was sleeping soundly in bed, and then stopped Park Chanyeol.

"Sigh, let Baekhyun get some sleep—"

Wu Shixun couldn't hold back anymore; as a man himself, he felt sorry for Baekhyun.

But then he lowered his head, picked up his phone, and sent a message to his ambiguous girlfriend:

[That's great!]

Will you betray me?

Even late at night.

Fan groups on various entertainment sections and anonymous forums on Korean websites are still active, engaging in activities such as manipulating data, fighting back against negative publicity, promoting products, and engaging in comparisons and disparagements.

The fans are very busy.

Geigei is more important than my biological father.

Under the sweltering heat of #MercedesOneDoor#, it's a sleepless night.

"—I'm stunned, really! Dating Baekhyun while driving another man home late at night?"

"Another Mercedes! Shouldn't Mercedes consider having Auntie Tae as their spokesperson? ∃kkk~"

:

"That kid Jin Chan—he's really cunning. He snatched roles from Kim Soo-hyun, and now he's even after women—(meaningfully)."

"Damn it! During the Singles Magazine interview, you kept calling him Baekhyun oppa, and we Geigei even supported your new drama, Kim Chan! Is this how you repay Baekhyun oppa, you little rascal?"

Life is sometimes very strange.

Byun Baekhyun's fans have consistently portrayed him as a victim, and a photo of Kim Chan and Byun Baekhyun together in Singles Magazine a month ago has resurfaced.

Fans looked at the child in the video with heartache, cheering for a certain ungrateful wretch!

A quick Q&A about Byun Baekhyun—[On the Kpop stage, who are you most optimistic about?]

Like the callback, it was pushed to the second spot on the trending topics list, ranking below #Mercedes-Benz#.

However, the photos that Dispatch released in 14, which provided solid evidence of Kim Tae-yeon and Byun Baek-hyun's relationship, have been resurrected and reignited, with their popularity soaring.

Aside from heartbroken and angry fans.

Big Bang's VIPs are very talented; they relentlessly attack their rivals.

The message that Byun Baekhyun originally sent to support Kim Chan was modified: "The celebratory drinks are ready for you~ Your sister-in-law has prepared everything for you at home~ I won't be back too early~ Kim Tae-yeon, have fun with you~ Don't be too noisy~ I'll clean up by myself tomorrow~"

"Here's a piece of cake for that despicable couple. They're birds of a feather." (gestures of contempt)

"This whole thing is utter bullshit! It's completely ruined my mood!"

"Take in EXO-L's heartbroken female fans."

"Jin Chan—you have no heart!"

Shivering and cold—

When the sun rises, yesterday will not be forgotten.

When Byun Baekhyun woke up, he saw on the entertainment section that #World'sFirstGreen# was trending, surpassing #MercedesFirstGate#.

His face turned green and white with anger!

"Shi-ba! Kaisai gi ya!"

the other side.

"Hahaha!!"

:

:

JYP was monitoring the trending topics online in real time. Park Jin-young leaned back in his chair, laughing as he looked at the data.

A day full of surprises.

Overnight.

Kim Chan and Kim Tae-yeon attracted the attention of almost the entire nation, a testament to South Korea's small size and its entertainment-obsessed culture.

Few people are unaware of Girls' Generation.

EXO and Byun Baekhyun are also among the best in the Korean Wave. For example, he is now a green comet in EXO's superpower-themed visual universe.

Jin Chan, amidst all of this, overnight became a rising black and red flame in the Korean Wave sky!

This fire doesn't need anyone to ignite it.

Yoon Sung-hyun, standing to the side, smiled with relief: "In one hour, Chan's debut album will be released."

"The results should be very good."

Park Jin-young made a prediction, then looked down at the agitated and frenzied anti-government protesters in front of the building below the window.

"Xiao Can, you need to be careful lately."

Yoon Sung-hyun smiled and said, "Don't worry about President Park."

Anticipating that some fans would go completely crazy, he had already spoken to his friends at the Gangnam Police Station.

Dense patrols are conducted in the Cheongdam-dong area; loyal police officers, their batons at their waists, are always ready to open fire, 6 seconds a second.

An unrestricted fighting tournament using sticks.

..

Mapo District.

Hong Xiya woke up [Beauty is justice] and saw the trending topics on her phone—the sky has fallen!

But it wasn't out of heartache for the border dog.

Instead, after carefully reviewing the online leaks about the #MercedesOneDoor# 2.0, she immediately realized that something was wrong.

"You're so amazing!"

Hong Xiya angrily confronted the brainless fans who were hurling insults at Jin Can in the comments section of the exposé.

The time and location in the exposé are all wrong!

:

Oppa didn't stay out all night at all. It was just getting dark when she saw Kim Tae-yeon's car leave. Hong Hee-ah also has a video that proves that Kim Chan and she were eating ice cream and chatting in front of the coffee shop that day.

How could he possibly sleep with Aunt Tai?

It's all been a setup by capital!

[Hey, Kai-sai! Can you please stop playing the victim? Did you deliberately set up Kim Chan oppa and manipulate public opinion to make people cyberbully him?]

[Is Aunt Tai an idiot? Given last year's Mercedes incident, why would she do this again this year? It's obviously a setup, a case of taking things out of context! You bunch of stupid idiots!]

[How could Kim Chan oppa possibly be interested in Tae-ah? He's after her age, he's after her—]

Hong Xiya was so angry that she trembled all over.

After washing two sheets of Jin Can's clothes, she immediately opened her laptop, ready to upload the video from her phone.

Let's edit the video to show the truth to netizens!

Hong Xi-ya was absolutely certain that it was either Byun or SM Entertainment that was behind this!

It has absolutely nothing to do with Kim Chan Oppa.

Cheongdam-dong.

Nayeon Lim and Momo Hirai walked side by side on the sidewalk, both dressed in comfortable and understated casual wear.

Their destination was clear: an independent record store on the street corner with an unassuming sign.

The record store window was sparkling clean, displaying several tasteful vinyl covers, ranging from classic rock to indie electronic.

"Isn't my idea good?" Lim Nayeon grinned, showing her rabbit teeth with a bright smile.

She wore an oatmeal-colored sun-protective jacket paired with light blue straight-leg jeans: "Let's support Chan by buying his album!"

"Once we see him, we'll ask him to sign it for us in person—"

Hirai Momo nodded in agreement, her cheekbones puffing out: "That's what I think too."

As they were talking.

The two entered the record store, where the shelves were filled with records, neatly arranged by artist and genre.

Lim Na-yeon and Hirai Momo have very clear goals.

They walked confidently toward the "K-Pop" section, their eyes quickly scanning the newly released albums.

Kara, BTS, Big Bang, Miss A, Eo.

Lin Na-yeon pouted, her slender fingers swishing through the albums before finally picking out a golden limited edition album.

It was covered with a transparent plastic film.

Just as the two were about to pay, each with a copy, a girl squeezed through and took a golden new album from the album shelf.

Wow!

"The quality is even better than I expected~" the girl exclaimed softly, looking at the cool album cover.

The background is black and white, composed of piano keys.

And on this interwoven black and white keyboard, there is a golden profile.

With the semi-transparent overlay technology, his handsome face blends perfectly into the background of the piano keys, making his expressive eyebrows and eyes appear even more profound.

At the top—the album title "Interlude" appears.

Bottom right corner — Simon.

After a moment of infatuation, the girl sat on the small windowsill and began unpacking the album.

The configuration inside includes everything except the CD.

Photobook: Contains multiple high-definition photos and behind-the-scenes footage taken under the concept of "Interlude".

Random postcards, a set of 3 designs, 1 postcard is randomly included.

Folding posters —

Lim Na-yeon and Hirai Momo returned to the company with the album in their arms.

The two of them scurried up in front of Minatozaki Sana, Mina, and the others, showing off their spoils.

Have you seen Chan?

"I want his autograph—" Lim Nayeon asked Yoo Jeongyeon with a chuckle.

She also has her own little tricks.

:

:

Once I sign an autograph, we can meet again, right?

It can also comfort him.

Yu Dingyan spoke up: "I saw him."

"Holy crap, I'm surrounded by bodyguards, oh my god—"

Sana Minatozaki puffed out her cheeks: "There's nothing we can do about it. His relationship with Taeyeon-senpai is really—"

After saying that, she looked worried.

"So, where did Chan-san go?" Hirai Momo asked.

Chou Tzu-yu scratched her head and replied, "I went to PDnim's office."

Meanwhile, she kept refreshing the company's official website page with her small hand.

She's paying close attention to the debut of the "Royal Family Brother"!

Chou Tzu-yu also told her mother that she appeared in the music video, and the whole family is watching it.

The fact that she gave Jin Can a music video made her feel from the bottom of her heart that, apart from being arrogant, showing off, and liking to play pranks, Royal Brother is actually a great person!

After all, we are currently in the recording period of "SIXTEEN".

Popularity is very important.

"Shh~" Son Chaeyoung shrank her neck and put her finger to her lips.

"The official website has released Kim Chan oppa's music video and audio."

These words were spoken.

The 16-year-old girls all crowded around, either taking out their phones to watch Taeyang's debut.
