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

Chapter 463 Kim Tae-yeon: Have you fallen for Bae Suzy?

The announcement was released on JYP's official website within minutes.

Artists under his management, such as 2am, 2pm, miss A, wondergirls, and Lee Sunmi, updated their statuses one after another to support Chen Yan, which quickly raised the popularity to a new level.

The onlookers were immediately excited when they saw this spectacle.

But a moment later, many people noticed something was wrong.

What about Bae Suzy?

As JYP's most popular artist right now, why didn't she post anything to support Chen Yan?
Just minutes after the onlookers were puzzled, Bae Suzy finally updated her social media.

However, this post was like a bombshell, instantly igniting public opinion and causing a flurry of reactions from onlookers.

[Excuse me, veteran musician, do you have any notable works? I couldn't find any of your songs online. If you have any unreleased tracks, could you perhaps share them with me?]

At the end of the post, the account of the veteran musician who commented on Chen Yan's work was also tagged.

Daebu!

Such a tough stance! This copywriting is absolutely sarcastic!
Bae Suzy just fired a shot!
Although the terms of address used were respectful, the underlying sarcasm and irony were all too obvious.

To put it bluntly: You, someone with no work to show for it, are you even qualified to judge others?

The power of this shot was considerable.

As public opinion was further ignited, the hashtag "[Bae Suzy confronts a well-known musician head-on]" climbed onto Naver's trending list at an extraordinary speed and quickly entered the top ten.

"Tsk tsk, their attitude is quite tough, even I'm getting a little excited."

At Chen Yan's home, Kim Tae-yeon, sitting on the living room sofa, clicked her tongue in amazement.

Then she turned her gaze away from the trending topics on her phone screen and looked at Chen Yan beside her, her expression a half-smile.

"Xiao Yan, how do you feel? There's a girl who stood up for you so firmly right away, and she's even the nation's first love. Aren't you tempted?"

"Forehead"

Chen Yan paused for a moment, then immediately put on a fawning smile and moved closer to Kim Tae-yeon.

He didn't answer Kim Tae-yeon's question, nor did he say anything else; he just smiled ingratiatingly.

But this is also a silent answer.

He definitely couldn't hide his feelings for Bae Suzy from Kim Tae-yeon and the others, so he had to show his attitude at the right time and let Kim Tae-yeon and the others know his feelings, like now.

He knew he couldn't go home one day, so he grabbed Kim Tae-yeon's hand and said directly, "Noona, I've taken a liking to Suzy, and I hope you'll agree."

That would be incredibly awkward.

Besides, what's the difference between this and going all out on Kim Tae-yeon face-to-face? You definitely can't do that.

Therefore, it's important to strike a balance, like now, by expressing a clear attitude at the right time so that Kim Tae-yeon knows what's going on.

We're all adults; some things don't need to be explicitly stated to be understood.

"Humph~"

Upon seeing this, Kim Tae-yeon let out a soft nasal sound and struggled symbolically in the man's arms for a few moments before stopping when she realized she couldn't break free.

She had obviously figured out Chen Yan's attitude towards Bae Suzy, but she didn't continue the conversation.

Like Chen Yan, all she needed was for the man to not hide his feelings from her, so she would know what he was thinking and not wait until things were almost over before letting her know.

In any case, no matter who comes into this family, they can't shake her position in this family.

Hmph, as long as I am alive, you will all be my concubines!

As for whether such indulgence will embolden men and lead them to become promiscuous.
The peaches were already marked with lines.

The girl told her and Yoona about the birthday gift on the night the three of them interrogated the man because of Jessica Jung.

Once a bottom line is drawn, it must be adhered to; if it is crossed, the consequences must be borne.

As for the price, Kim Tae-yeon could only say that it was a price that Chen Yan could not bear.

However, she was quite confident that her man would stick to his principles, so she basically didn't think about the possibility of Chen Yan taking advantage of her.

Seeing that Kim Tae-yeon had stopped struggling, Chen Yan hugged the older sister's soft and fragrant body, grinned, and lowered his head to give her a light kiss on her soft lips.

Kim Tae-yeon glared at him, then shifted to a more comfortable position, leaning against the man's chest, and continued looking at her phone.

"Xiao Yan, is your company's plan to respond to online criticism by using the number of your unreleased works?"

As she spoke, there was little worry on her face.

It wasn't that she didn't care about the matter, but rather that she knew it wouldn't ultimately affect her man.

Others might not know, but how could she not know?

Chen Yan's four unreleased songs are all hits, including a massive smash hit like "Roar".

The reason why that so-called musician was able to say that Chen Yan's reputation was overrated is simply because Chen Yan's output was relatively small.

Once these four songs are released, this problem will naturally be solved.

"Well, that's pretty much it."

Chen Yan rested his chin on Kim Tae-yeon's head and replied, "These three companies will also release an announcement later, explaining that I have a collaboration with them. It's also a way to take advantage of this buzz for publicity."

"Oh, after Bae Suzy posted her update, the topic has been getting more and more popular online."

Kim Tae-yeon scrolled through the online comments, which were basically Chen Yan's fans and Bae Suzy's fans arguing with some random people of unknown origin.

As she looked at it, she frowned.

Although she knew that most of these people were online trolls, she still felt very uncomfortable seeing them insulting Chen Yan.

Noticing Kim Tae-yeon's sparse, furrowed eyebrows, Chen Yan chuckled and gently smoothed them out with his hand.

"Nuna, these comments are nothing to look at. Don't you know what kind of people are online? It's not worth getting angry."

Kim Tae-yeon pouted: "Okay, I won't watch it."

Although she no longer reads the comments, she still checks her phone from time to time, just like other netizens who are just watching the drama unfold, to see if there are any new updates.

A few minutes later, new developments appeared online.

"Dreamtea Entertainment has issued an announcement."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yan also looked down at her phone screen. Two minutes earlier, Mengcha Entertainment's official website had released an announcement.

[Girl's Day, a girl group under the company, will officially make their comeback on June 24th with the release of their new song "Something." The song was written, composed, arranged, and produced by JYP's Chen Yan PDnim. Girl's Day is honored to collaborate with such an excellent music producer as Chen Yan PDnim. Please give Girl's Day your support and attention to their new song!]

Following the announcement, DreamTea Entertainment's official website released a video interviewing members of Girl's Day about their evaluation of the song "Something," and the members unanimously gave it a positive review.

After Mengcha Entertainment issued its announcement, the level of attention and discussion increased at a visible speed.

Logically speaking, a small company like Mengcha Entertainment shouldn't attract so much attention.

But today is different. Any topic related to Chen Yan will generate a lot of buzz, which is why this situation has occurred. This is the significance of riding the wave of popularity.

Lee Jong-suk, the president of Dream Tea Entertainment, sat in his office, watching the ever-increasing number of visits to the company's official website on his computer screen, and secretly clenched his fist.

This attempt to ride the wave of popularity was definitely worthwhile.

The next question is how much of the traffic Girl's Day can retain. In any case, it's certain that it will boost its popularity.

Downstairs, in Girl's Day's practice room.

The four people sat together, each holding a mobile phone and keeping an eye on the latest developments online.

The heat they had never felt before left all four of them speechless for a moment.

In the end, Park So-jin, the oldest and also the leader, breathed a sigh of relief and looked at her three younger sisters next to her.

"Let's keep practicing. We have to try our best to capitalize on this trend."

"Inside."

Fang Minya, Jin Yarong, and Li Huili all agreed, their eyes filled with unprecedented determination.

They're not stupid; they all understand that if they capitalize on this wave of popularity, they'll have a chance to make a comeback.

The song Chen Yan wrote for them is really good, and now it has brought them such a huge wave of popularity. All that's left is for them to rely on their own efforts.

The four put away their phones and stood up. Soon, the melody of "Something" filled the practice room again.

Online, some seasoned netizens immediately discovered the announcement and video released by Mengcha Entertainment.

This is clearly on Chen Yan's side.

The post was being shared by more and more people, and more and more people joined the discussion.

However, before they could even learn more about Dream Tea Entertainment and the girl's day group, ACUBE also released an announcement just over ten minutes later.

The announcement was almost identical to that of Dream Tea Entertainment, stating that their group Apink will officially make their comeback on July 5th with the new song "NONONO". The song was also written, composed, arranged, and produced by Chen Yan, and the announcement also expressed their honor to collaborate with Chen Yan.

Following the announcement, there was also a video in which the Apink members expressed their opinions on the new song, which were unanimously positive.

Compared to small companies like DreamTea Entertainment, which doesn't have much of a reputation, ACUBE, as a subsidiary of CUBE Entertainment, which successfully launched a wildly popular artist like Kim HyunA, does have some brand recognition.

At this point, even the casual observers realized that JYP had come prepared this time, having both of their partner companies issue statements in support of Chen Yan.

If that's the case, will SM Entertainment issue a statement?

While enjoying the drama, onlookers couldn't help but secretly keep an eye on the movements of SM Entertainment, the leading entertainment company in the Korean Peninsula.

Unlike small and medium-sized companies like Dream Tea Entertainment and ACUBE, SM Entertainment is considered one of the three major entertainment companies in the Korean Peninsula, alongside JYP Entertainment, and it consistently holds the top position.

After all, competitors are rivals, and SM has the absolute power to reject JYP's request, so they wouldn't be surprised if they didn't issue an announcement.

But what if SM issues an announcement?
Chen Yan is really something else; that musician who commented on him really messed up.

In an instant, everyone's attention was secretly focused on SM's official website.

SM didn't keep them waiting long; nearly twenty minutes later, SM's official website also released an announcement and a video.

However, the content of the announcement was slightly different.

After explaining the regression times of f(x) and EXO respectively, a sentence was added at the end.

[After collaborating with Chen Yanxi on Girls' Generation's "I Got a Boy," the company highly recognized and appreciated Chen Yanxi's talent. Their subsequent collaborations with f(x) and EXO were also very pleasant. The company is honored to have worked with Chen Yanxi multiple times and hopes to continue collaborating with him in the future.]

These words affirmed Chen Yan's talent and expressed the hope to continue collaborating with Chen Yan in the future.

While the public was thoroughly enjoying the drama, they were also somewhat surprised that SM Entertainment would so strongly support Chen Yan.

Little did they know, this was a little scheme by Kim Young-min and Lee Soo-man.

After all, the company has a business relationship with Chen Yan's family. They haven't even gotten their hands on the meat yet, so of course they have to maintain this relationship first.

Moreover, given Park Jin-young's promise that he would not refuse to write songs for SM due to changes in his position, it's natural to show strong support for him.

Just after SM Entertainment released a statement supporting Chen Yan, the popularity and discussion surrounding this incident reached a new level.

At Chen Yan's home.

Chen Yan and Kim Tae-yeon remained embracing on the sofa, watching the online developments.

Suddenly, a message pop-up appeared at the top of the screen.

It was a message from Song Ki-beom, Girls' Generation's general manager.

"Huh? Kibum oppa messaged me."

Kim Tae-yeon frowned in confusion and clicked on the message.

Kibum oppa: Taeyeon, you should have noticed the online discussions about Chen Yanxi. The company's intention is to allow artists like you who have worked with Chen Yanxi to post updates in support, but please be careful about the level of support and don't go too far.

Kim Tae-yeon blinked, and Chen Yan's voice rang in her ears first.

Wow, your company is really supporting me this time.

"We can't not support you. Your family has a business relationship with the company now. In order to maintain this relationship and make more money, of course we have to support you."

Coming to her senses, Kim Tae-yeon succinctly pinpointed the key point.

Chen Yan nodded in understanding; this was indeed in line with SM's style.

"Nunu, what kind of content are you planning to post on your social media?"

"Hmm, let me think about it."

Kim Tae-yeon pondered for a few seconds, then her gaze fell on the post Bae Suzy had made earlier on her phone screen. As if she had thought of something, a strange smile immediately appeared in her eyes.

Got it!
