Peninsula: The Great Producer

Chapter 172 You, Choi Sulli, are the leader

The practice song "MIROTIC" that Goo Hara drew is the title song of TVXQ's fourth full-length album released in September last year. It was produced by SM Entertainment's exclusive producer Yu Yongzhen.

The most popular performance was the live performance of "MIROTIC". The superb skills of the five people with microphones, their handsome looks, tall figures and difficult dances pushed this song to the altar.

It is also regarded by many fans as a phenomenal live stage song in KPOP in recent years, and has won many awards with sales of over 50 copies.

The choreography style incorporates elements of modern dance while inheriting the traditional stage, making the dance both classical and modern.

Cool jazz dance is full of vitality and expressiveness, with smooth movements, strong sense of rhythm and strong visual impact.

The video prepared by the production team happened to be the live performance version of "MIROTIC" on "Inkigayo". From the opening of the five people to the very end, it was absolutely amazing.

Sulli said that she practiced the dance for the song "MIROTIC" by imitating it on her own when she had a flash of inspiration while taking a break with the members in the practice room.

I don’t remember who proposed to imitate the stage of “MIROTIC” at that time. It was probably a sudden inspiration when the members were talking about the song “MIROTIC”.

In short, Sulli does dance to the chorus and rap parts of this song.

The rules of the random dance game they were about to play only required the four of them to dance the chorus or a representative highlight dance part together. Coincidentally, the one that Shirley had imitated was very suitable.

Goo Hara and the other two couldn't stop sighing while watching the video of the live stage. As a singing and dancing group, they understood better the difficulty of performing live with the microphone on.

If it was a simple dance, it would be fine, but the dance moves for TVXQ's song "MIROTIC" are so powerful and strong, and the fact that they can still perform their singing skills stably is really admirable.

Lee Ji-eun opened her mouth but didn't say anything, wondering how cool a girl could look if she danced like this.

Park Ji-yeon was eager to try it out and gestured with her hands following the video.

Time was running out, so Shirley started teaching directly.

Start with the chorus, humming "You crave me, you're obsessed with me" while breaking down the dance moves.

Just like the dance teacher, it is divided into four beats, 1, 2, 3, 4. Different beats correspond to different movements.

"Unnies, take the first step, move your left foot forward and bend your right foot, like me."

Goo Hara and the other two immediately focused their attention on Sulli, and began to learn the split dance moves with her.

"Lower your body's center of gravity and hold your hands as if you were holding something, like me," Shirley said, stretching her arms forward as if she were holding an oversized doll.

While teaching, Shirley did not forget to observe the movements of the three people.

Maybe SM company has very strict requirements for group dance. Goo Hara and Park Ji-yeon are fine, as they went through the dance courses like this when they were trainees. Even the angles of the arm extensions must be consistent when dancing in group.

Li Zhien was a little bit lagging behind, and Sulli was anxious, but she also kept encouraging Li Zhien: "Ji Eun, you can relax a little, and imagine hugging a large doll in your mind. Yes, that's it."

IU repeated the simple movements at the beginning, and for some reason she felt very good when she received praise from Sulli.

"1. Buy the left leg first, 2. Bend the right leg, 3. Open your arms, 4. Bend over and hold the doll."

Shirley tried her best to simplify the teaching of the dance moves, but time passed by cruelly.

On the floor in front of Qi Yaojiu, a stopwatch relentlessly ticked away. When the three-minute countdown ended, Qi Yaojiu immediately called a halt: "Everyone, practice time is over."

Even though Sulli taught it quickly and easily, the rap part had not been practiced together yet.

Sulli also pointed at herself and said, "I'll stand in the front. If you guys forget the dance moves, just watch how I dance and quickly follow my moves. There's no problem with a 90% resemblance."

Goo Hara, Lee Ji-eun and Park Ji-yeon all nodded.

In the end, it still depends on your on-the-spot reaction ability and eyesight.

Qi Yaojiu asked, "Which part do you want to dance?"

Sulli, who was standing at the front, said to Ki Yo-gu very skillfully, "The second chorus and the connecting rap part."

After getting her laptop back, Lee Eun-young scrolled through the progress bar of the video and pressed pause again before reaching the second chorus.

Qi Yaojiu reminded: "Are you all ready? There has to be at least 90% similarity."

"clear."

While answering, Sulli was still communicating with the older sisters behind her.

Qi Yaojiu called out Li Zhien: "Ji Eun, move a little to the left or right. No one can see your dance moves at all when you stand behind Sulli like this." Li Zhien muttered softly, "Plan failed," and silently moved a step to the right towards Park Ji Yeon.

"Unnies, let's cheer together."

Sulli stretched out her right hand, and Goo Hara and the other two, who had taken their positions, immediately took another step forward and came to Sulli's side. They put their four hands together and shouted "Come on" in unison, and their morale was boosted.

Returning to their respective seats, Shirley signaled, "It's time to begin."

Writer Li Enying began to play music, still the familiar chorus part, and as the music sounded, a group dance appeared.

"Oh~"

"not bad."

"Nice dance."

Various exclamations came one after another.

For a moment, Qi Yaojiu suddenly understood why Luo Yingshi had that reaction on the show.

It was really surprising.

In just three minutes, the boys' group danced, and after some impromptu learning, they actually danced together.

Although the dance moves are not as standard as those of TVXQ, you have to know that these four people only practiced for three minutes, unlike TVXQ who have been practicing dance since they started preparing for the album.

Shirley was the busiest of the four, clapping the beat and shouting, "Stretch out your hands, bend down, hold the doll, cover your mouth, and pat the air."

Various code words that the four people discussed impromptu emerged one after another.

When it comes to the rap part, the representative dance moves of supporting the right elbow with the left hand, supporting the chin with the right thumb and index finger, and shrugging the shoulders left and right also appear.

Strictly speaking, the similarity is less than 90%. Some people slacked off, and some were a little slow, but the overall picture of the dance was indeed very shocking.

"pass"

There was no reason for Qi Yaojiu to yell "ding".

The moment they heard the news, the four of them immediately stopped dancing, hugged each other, and jumped in place to celebrate.

"Shirley is amazing."

"Well done Shirley."

"I was so nervous."

"Jieun-unnie dances very well too."

"We succeeded."

Confidence is built at this moment.

Lee Eun-young leaned over to Ki Yo-gu and said, "PDnim, is the song you're preparing still for the boy group?"

It's definitely difficult. Ki Yo-gu said to Lee Eun-young, "Add 'Life and Death' by H.O.S.H.E."

"'Life and Death'? PDnim, isn't this too difficult?"

Qi Yaojiu said, "You may not win, so be prepared."

After the four people finished cheering, Goo Hara came forward and asked, "Oppa, 'MIROTIC' is a five-star difficulty song, right? The highest difficulty level is five stars, right?"

Qi Yaojiu nodded and responded, "Yes, the highest difficulty level is five stars."

Goo Hara looked back at her three sisters, and they nodded in tacit understanding. Then Goo Hara said, "Then the rules will be the same as at the beginning, with four rounds."

Qi Yaojiu shrugged and said, "Are you sure? Once the rules are set, they can't be changed. Even if you act like a spoiled child, it won't work this time. Win is win, lose is lose."

"Oppa, we are not the kind of people who play tricks on others."

If this protest was said by Lee Ji-eun or Park Ji-yeon, Ki Yo-gu might be a little credible, but it was said by Choi Sulli. Isn't she playing dirty? She's the one who comes up with all kinds of bad ideas and acts like a spoiled brat.
