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

Chapter 467 She's determined to have the fourth position in the family!

June 24th, Peninsula time, is an ordinary date, not an international holiday or a Peninsula holiday.

However, at midnight on that day, many young people on the peninsula stayed in front of their phones or computers, simultaneously searching for a keyword on various music streaming websites.

Something.

Because of the online battle a few days ago, and the recent promotion by Mengcha Entertainment, many people have remembered this time, as a work by Chen Yan is about to be released.

Press Enter, and search results will appear on the audio source website.

Find the song performed by Girl's Day and click play.

Within minutes of the song's release, the internet became abuzz with activity due to the two individuals' social media updates.

Bae Suzy updated her social media.

I've already listened to the song for everyone, and it's really good. I've already started listening to it on repeat. You should all go listen to it too!

Below the text was a link to the song "Something".

Fans responded enthusiastically, posting screenshots of what they were listening to and checking in the comments section.

Less than two minutes after Bae Suzy updated her status, Lee Ji-eun also updated her status.

The meaning is self-evident.

With the support of two top celebrities, the hashtag "[Suzy IU promotes Chen Yan's new work]" quickly climbed to the top of Naver's trending list.

For young people on the peninsula, the nightlife is just beginning at midnight, so more and more people joined the discussion, and the topic's popularity continued to rise.

Just as netizens were discussing it enthusiastically, some sharp-eyed people noticed that the other person involved, Chen Yan, had not updated his status for a long time.

What's going on? Why hasn't PD Chen posted any updates to promote it? This isn't his own song.

[Could it be that you forgot?]

[You really forgot something so important?]

Then, netizens flocked to the post Chen Yan made two days ago promoting Girl's Day's new song and left comments reminding him to post another update to promote it.

Some people even went to Bae Suzy and Lee Ji-eun's comment sections, asking them to remind Chen Yan to post an update to promote the story.

So, a few moments later
Ah, sorry, sorry, I was writing a new song for Sunmi and lost track of time.

I thought Suzy was calling me in the middle of the night to invite me out for a late-night snack, hahaha.

Please give Girl's Day's new song "Something" lots of support! They are all amazing girls.

Upon seeing that Chen Yan, the person in question, had updated his status, netizens who are always surfing the internet quickly flocked to his comment section to leave their footprints.

The first person to comment was none other than Bae Suzy.

[Suzy: Hey oppa, I'm a female idol, I have to manage my figure, how could I possibly ask you to go out for a late-night snack?]

(Whispering: Let's discuss things like getting together for late-night snacks privately. Don't bring it up. I need to maintain my image.)

Chen Yan replied: Okay, you can treat me.

Netizens who had just arrived saw the interaction between the two in the comments section and laughed, then joined in the chat.

[Oh my god! Suzy actually called PD Chen and even asked him out for a late-night snack. Their relationship is really good! [laughing with hands covering mouth]]

Chen Yan replied: Xiuzhi said you asked her to call me. As for the late-night snack, I can't go into details with you. Xiuzhi said she wanted to maintain her image.

Wait a minute, I've noticed that PD Chen's post is quite telling. It's only three lines long, but it contains a lot of information.

The first line, seemingly explaining why he hadn't posted an update yet, was actually a subtle way of promoting Lee Sunmi's new song.

The second line mentions that Suzy called him, and the following sentence about having a late-night snack clearly indicates that the two have a close relationship.

Even in the third and last line, he didn't forget the main point, promoting his new song for Girl's Day. Wow, that's quite something!

Chen Yan replied: You're so good at analysis, are you out of your mind?!

[Hahaha, PD Chen is so funny! By the way, where's my Ji-eun? Didn't she call you? I left her a message and asked her to call you.]

Chen Yan replied: World-famous painting: Zhi En is sleeping. [Image.jpg]

Clicking on the picture reveals a photo taken by Chen Yan of Lee Ji-eun sleeping on a table in the recording studio.

[Ahhhhh! So cute!!! PD Chen, do you have any more? Please give me a few more!]

However, before Chen Yan himself could reply to this comment, someone unexpectedly popped up.

[IU: Hey! Don't post this randomly!]

Chen Yan replied: So Zhi En is still awake? Peeping on the screen, caught!

When Lee Ji-eun appeared on the live feed, the comment section immediately became even more lively.

Some netizens who were still lingering elsewhere heard that Chen Yan was replying online in the comments section, and that even Bae Suzy and Lee Ji-eun had appeared, so they all rushed over.

After seeing Chen Yan's interaction with the previous netizens, they couldn't help but smile and then joined the fray.

As more and more netizens flocked to the site, a new term quickly appeared in Naver's top ten trending topics.

[Chen Yan replies to netizens online].

The internet became lively again.

Time quickly came to 1 a.m., which is also the time when Melon's real-time music chart is refreshed.

Many people simultaneously refreshed the charts at that moment, searching for the song's position.

Inside a small apartment somewhere in Seoul.

The four members of Girl's Day were sitting around on leader Park So-jin's bed.

A laptop was placed in front of the four people, and the screen displayed Melon's official website.

The time in the lower right corner of the computer jumped a second later, from 00:59 to 1:00.

The four of them did not immediately refresh the real-time rankings; their tension reached its peak at this moment.

Kim Ah-young suddenly got up, paced back and forth in front of the bed a few steps, unconsciously patted her hands back and forth in front of and behind her, and then squatted down to do stretching exercises while taking deep breaths.

The ten delicate white toes, clad in slippers, were all tightly curled together, revealing the owner's current mood.

Fang Minya and Li Huili also took a few deep breaths nervously, and then looked at Park Sojin.

Park So-jin exchanged a glance with the two of them, then turned her gaze to the computer screen, clasped her hands together, and took a deep breath.

The next second, without hesitation, I swiped the mouse and refreshed the leaderboard.

As soon as the page refreshed, Kim Ah-young immediately got up and gathered around the computer with the other three to search for the new song rankings.

Four heads huddled together, slowly looking up from the bottom, number one hundred.

When they made their comeback last time, their song didn't even make it into the top 100 of the real-time charts an hour after its release.

It was only later, due to the song's good quality, that it briefly climbed to 80th place on the real-time chart.

Unfortunately, due to low popularity and lack of staying power, it only stayed on the charts for a few hours before falling off.

But this time, they think they should be able to break into the top 100 of the real-time rankings.

Given the huge buzz a few days ago, coupled with the current trending topics about Chen Yan and her group online, and the high quality of their songs, they shouldn't be unable to break into the top 100.

The four of them slowly looked upwards, carefully examining each person one by one.

91-100, no.

81-90, no.

Even up to the top 50, there was still no trace of "Something".

The four of them frowned slightly. 50 was the best result they had predicted. Could it be that they still hadn't made it into the top 100 of the real-time rankings this time?

Park So-jin took another deep breath, and the next second she immediately swiped the mouse to scroll up faster.

Suddenly, her eyes narrowed.

After looking at it carefully again, and confirming that he wasn't mistaken, his eyes widened suddenly, and he covered his mouth. "Oh my god! 19, number 19 on the real-time ranking! We're number 19 on the real-time ranking!"

"what? What!"

The three younger sisters, who had already lowered their heads and were somewhat disappointed, immediately raised their heads upon hearing this, gathered in front of the computer screen, and stared wide-eyed at the rankings on the music charts.

19-《something》-girl's day.

"Ahhhh!!!"

"Amazing! We're 19th on the real-time rankings! We're 19th on the real-time rankings!!!"

Several girls' excited voices immediately rang out in the dormitory, and after the initial excitement, they burst into tears of joy.

The four girls hugged each other and cried. They had never imagined they would achieve such a result.

Or rather, they simply dared not even think about it.

This time, it seems like they're really going to become famous.

Online, many netizens immediately noticed the success of the song "Something".

Soon, amidst heated discussions among netizens, the hashtag "[Girl's Day's new song debuts at number 19 on Melon's real-time chart]" climbed onto the trending list.

Chen Yan's fans went directly to the musician who had commented on Chen Yan's work a few days earlier, and made sarcastic remarks in the comments section.

[Sigh, what a pity. "Something" did poorly, only debuting at number 19 on the real-time charts. Musician Nim must think that's a terrible result.]

[It's only ranked 19th on the real-time chart. Musician Nim definitely wouldn't care about such a result. If he released the work himself, it would definitely be number one on the real-time chart.]

[Huh? Last time I said I'd get musician nim to release a song so we could enjoy it, but days have passed and there's still no news. Could it be that he can't write it? No way, no way.]

[Musician nim, what do you think of the song "Something"? Why don't you post a review?]

[You damn brat, open your dog eyes and take a good look! You're ranked 19th on the real-time charts. You don't even have a single song. You must be crying with envy.]

Just as the fans were about to continue posting, they discovered that the post had been deleted by the poster.

The fans were stunned for a moment, then clicked into the musician's account homepage, intending to change the post and continue their output.

But before they could even click into the comment sections of other posts, a notification suddenly popped up on the screen.

This account has been deleted.

The fans were taken aback again.

Good grief, they just deleted their account and ran away.

Damn it, you son of a bitch, slow down! Let me curse you a few more times before you delete this account.

Chen Yan's fans left the battlefield cursing and swearing, then went back to discussing the new song "Something" with other netizens.

Meanwhile, another group of people were also paying attention to the situation online, namely some senior executives of brokerage companies.

After seeing the trending topics online and the success of the song "Something," they all sighed and shook their heads.

This young man's momentum is almost complete.

This young man's popularity is no longer limited to himself; it has already begun to influence the groups he collaborates with.

The online discussions about the group Girl's Day and the song "Something" are the best proof of this.

As a music producer, to achieve this level is something that even Yoo Young-jin and Park Jin-young seem to lack.

They had also listened to the song "Something," and it was indeed a good song.

Achieving a debut at number 19 on Melon's real-time music chart, especially for a girl group like Girl's Day whose popularity isn't even considered third-tier, was indeed a bit unexpected.

But upon closer reflection, it makes sense.

With its high-quality song and the huge buzz it generated a few days ago, it's no wonder it achieved a result far exceeding the group's popularity.

Ultimately, it's the popularity of Chen Yan as a controversial figure that brings him all the attention.

A moment later, seeing the hashtag "Girl's Day's new song debuts at number 19 on Melon's real-time chart" rise to number 15 on the trending chart, the executives of the various entertainment companies couldn't help but sigh in unison.

Park Jin-young really struck gold this time.

Online, even though it was already 1:30 a.m., discussions about the song "Something" had not decreased but had actually increased.

[This song is really good, oh no, those legs are really nice, cough cough. Anyway, this song is indeed good, and its success is well-deserved.]

[I agree with the comment above. I can tell whether a song is good or not just by looking at it. This is definitely a good song.]

[Ahem, I checked out the music video out of curiosity. Well, that's all for today's online surfing, I'm off, guys.]

[Upstairs, it's something that can be done in three minutes, don't make it sound like it'll take forever.]

[However, to be serious, PD Chen is indeed talented. This song is completely different in style from his previous works, so those haters should shut up now.]

"Hehe~"

Upon seeing the online comment praising Chen Yan's talent, Peach, lying in bed, chuckled.

I took a screenshot of this comment and forwarded it to my oppa.

The message was read within two seconds of being sent, indicating that Chen Yan was still awake. His reply popped up in the chat window shortly afterward.

Oppa [Heart]: Go to sleep, Choi Jinri. You have a schedule tomorrow morning, so stop playing on your phone!

Oh no, they've called me by my real name. I need to go to sleep right now.

Peach pouted and immediately replied: Okay, oppa, I'll go to sleep right away. Oppa, you should go to sleep too, goodnight~
oppa [heart]: I've already lay down to sleep, goodnight.

Seeing the message, Peach smiled happily, exited Kakao, turned off her phone, and placed it on the bedside table.

At that moment, the room door opened, and Krystal Jung, who had gone out to use the restroom, returned.

Peach smiled and said to her, "I'm going to sleep, Xiujing. You should go to sleep soon too. Goodnight~"

"Okay, goodnight, I'm going to sleep too."

Krystal replied, kicked off her slippers, got into bed, and was about to turn off the light.

Peach suddenly turned to look at her: "By the way, Soojung, I met with Ji-eun and Suzy tonight. They both know about oppa and Taeyeon unnie."

She had told the two of them not to tell Krystal about Jessica unnie and oppa for the time being, so it was okay to tell her about the meeting.

This will put some pressure on this girl.

If this drags on any longer, I'll really be the youngest member again.

She paused in turning off the lights, but Jung Soo-jung's expression remained unchanged.

"understood."

He replied calmly and pressed the switch with his finger.

"Snapped"

The room was plunged into darkness instantly.

Soon, even breathing filled the quiet room.

Upon hearing the sound, Krystal Jung, who had been keeping her eyes closed, slowly opened them.

He stared silently at the ceiling for a moment, then turned to the side and reached for his phone on the bedside table.

Open the photo album and click on a photo.

When she was rumored to be dating Chen Yan a while ago, a photo of her taking pictures with Chen Yan in front of a food stall took up the entire screen.

Looking at the photo, after a long while, those eyes, which had been somewhat unfocused, refocused and quickly revealed a determined look.

IU doesn't know what Chen Yan is thinking.

But Xiuzhi was fully aware of Chen Yan's feelings for her.

She couldn't hesitate any longer; if she hesitated any longer, even Soo-ji would get ahead of her.

She's determined to be fourth in the family!
