The number one playboy on the Peninsula!

Chapter 203: Coachella! Uproar!

"..."

Mingjing Nan's white knuckles gripped the blue porcelain bowl, her fingertips reddening from exertion. She vaguely sensed a grain of rice hanging from the corner of her mouth, and she licked it with the tip of her tongue.

She vaguely felt that Gong Cheng, who was holding Caiying outside the closet door, glanced at her.

In the quiet bedroom and closet, Ming Jingnan could clearly hear the slight panting and the blending sound of tuoye on the other side of the door besides his own breathing.

She blushed and closed her eyes, not wanting to see. She felt like Gong Cheng was doing this on purpose! Didn't we agree that you'd lead Chaeyoung away, and I'd quickly flee the scene?
Especially the hand that was wrapped around Chaeyoung's waist and gradually tucked into her sleeve - is this bastard treating reality like butter?
For a moment, Ming Jingnan felt a little regretful. If he had known to hide under the bed, at least nothing could be seen.

"Oppa, do you miss me?" Chaeyoung separated her lips and held Gong Cheng's jawline with a dazed look in her eyes.

"I think about it." The bitter licorice-tasting medicine in his mouth was already dispelled by the sweetness of the strawberry-flavored lollipop. Gong Cheng held down the little tiger's hand that wanted to help him take off his pajamas. He didn't have the habit of live broadcasts.

Especially for the little penguin! I want to see it from the bed!

Give my Chaeyoung a push!
Hearing the conversation between the two, Ming Jingnan couldn't help but open her eyes and peek through the gap in the grille. She swallowed her dry throat and said, "Take it off, Chaeyoung! Do it!"

She wants to see how powerful the Seoul cannon is!

Then, the little penguin held the bowl and saw Sun Caiying humming in a baby voice, pulling Gong Cheng's hand and stuffing it into her lapel, "Oppa, look, have I grown bigger~"

"It seems to be a bit bigger." Gong Cheng looked at the little tiger's innocent smile and confirmed it himself. Then he glanced at the tightly closed wardrobe and said, "It looks much bigger than Mina-chan's!"

"Ani, what nonsense are you talking about, Oppa? It's like you've touched me before." Son Chaeyoung pinched Gong Cheng's cheek, but added with a smile, "But, Mina-unnie is indeed not as big as me, hehe~"

"?" Ming Jingnan, curled up in the closet, was shaking with anger, the blue porcelain bowl in her hand trembling non-stop. She used her free hand to tug at the collar of her black nightgown and took a peek inside. There it was!
What nonsense are you talking about, you bastards outside!
"Oppa, actually, I've been thinking a lot these past two days since I got home." Seeing Gong Cheng's handsome face, Son Chaeyoung couldn't help but put her face close to his, and said in a coquettish voice, "The dating ban will end next year."

"Let's tell the members when the time comes, right? They'll all bless us, and I don't want to hide it anymore, okay~"

do not!

You, Shiba Inu unnie, are planning to boldly confess your love to me next year!
Didn’t you see the machete that your Rabbit Unnie had, Chaeyoung?
Your Penguin Unnie is still hiding in the closet that is less than one meter long, boohoo!

Your predecessor, Miyeon-unnie, who worked in the same position as you, will debut next year, little tiger!
Your girl group's top-notch member, Bae Joo-hyun, is also eyeing your oppa...

Chaeyoung, I'm really worried about you...

Ming Jingnan, who was hiding in the closet, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard what Sun Caiying said, and moved closer to the grille.

"Are you too happy, Oppa?" Chaeyoung was very satisfied with Gong Cheng's performance. Seeing how excited Oppa was, he couldn't speak. "Hehe~ Don't worry about anything else, Oppa. Anyway, I believe the unnies should bless us very much!"

"Everyone's relationship is so good, right, the tenth person of Twice~"

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Gong Cheng forced a smile, his face a little stiff, "Where's Daxian?"

Where's my tofu?

I have to find a helper. The loyal and righteous Daxian should stand on my side, right?
It's fine to be an enemy of the entire K-pop scene, but don't...

"Da Hyun? She will definitely bless us. She has always known about our affairs!" Sun Caiying smiled and nodded at the corner of his mouth, not knowing that Ming Jingnan in the closet secretly wrote down Kim Da Hyun's name.

Is this person already in control of the group? Is he cultivating influence and confidants?
Of the three members of the maknae line, two are his. What about Tzuyu? Moreover, since the beginning, the two of them have naturally been close due to their nationality. Naejin's mind couldn't help but race!

Ming Jingnan's curled up feet felt a little numb, and she couldn't help but move them slightly.

Gong Cheng stood up and prepared to take the little tiger for a walk and buy some food for the afternoon gathering, so that Caiying, with her leaky mouth, would not reveal any military intelligence to the little penguin.

The only reason he has been able to stay safe in Twice until now is because of the information gap and time difference. The tort has been exposed, and Mingjing Nan, the thief penguin, will definitely pay special attention to it.

Besides, I guess by now, the members have all returned to Seoul. When they arrive, it will be difficult for Mingjingnan to leave! Plus, the bunny girl likes to help him organize his closet and put his clothes in order. Who knows, when he opens the closet, he might be like, "Wow, this penguin is pretty good-looking!"

Then what? Three cuts and six holes are a small matter, but wouldn't the rabbit girl's big machete cut her into pieces?

The problem is, being cut into pieces is one thing, but what about the puppy and the tiger cub next to them?
With his beloved disciple and good sister also here, wouldn’t his image of being tall, bright and noble collapse?

"Chaeyoung, come on, Oppa will take you to the mall to buy some ingredients. What do you want to eat tonight? Oh~" Gong Cheng picked up Sun Chaeyoung and walked straight out of the bedroom. Sun Chaeyoung, oh~
"Ah~ What are you screaming about, Oppa? What's that 嘤嘤嘤? Why are you imitating me?" The little tiger blushed. She preferred to scream in bed~ But she didn't expect that Oppa would always tease her about this.

"..."

……

8 month 5 day.

Gong Cheng took the time to buy the large flat in Cheongdam-dong and completed the contract. That same afternoon, he led his adoptive parents to buy the apartment in Seong-an-dong and registered it under the names of the two elders.

After Park Jin-young learned about this, he obtained Gong Sung's consent and sent the director and VJ who were responsible for recording the filming of "Tarot Documentary" over.

……

"Brother Cunhao, don't be polite, try my cooking, it's very good."

In the living room of Room 301 in an old residential building in Yeongdeungpo District, dim lights flickered on the ceiling, potted plants of flowers and plants were placed on the balcony, and the aroma of smoky food from the kitchen filled the nostrils of several people.

Gong Cheng brought out the food that his adoptive mother had just cooked from the kitchen and placed it on the dining table, then greeted director Li Cunhao and the VJ girl who had come to follow the filming.

In the VJ's camera, Gong Cheng took off his custom-made Armani suit and other designer clothes, and wore only home shorts and a white vest, and tap-toed white canvas shoes with no heels pulled up. He didn't look like the most influential superstar in Asia so far.

He is young, real, unrestrained,

"Uncle, this house is quite old, right? You must be reluctant to move out of here?" Li Cunhao took out a cigarette and handed it to his adoptive father, looking at the surrounding environment with a smile. The house and decoration were those of an ordinary family.

The adoptive father took the cigarette but did not smoke it. He knew his own body well. His son had worked so hard to help him treat his illness and earn money for surgery. It had only been two years since he recovered. How could he touch these things?

"Oh, Mom and Dad won't move out." Gong Cheng took out two bottles of white wine from the cupboard. They were Maotai, which Zhang Yixing had specially brought for him when he came back from China.

I had a checkup on my adoptive father's health not long ago, and he's almost recovered, but I still need to be careful. It's okay to drink a glass occasionally, just control the amount.

After pouring a glass of white wine for the director and adoptive father respectively, Gong Cheng shouted, "Oh mom, stop busying yourself and come out to eat."

"Hey, if you don't come out, Brother Cunhao and the others will be embarrassed to start eating!"

"..."

At the dinner table, the adoptive mother couldn't help but ask, "When will you come back from America?"

"I'm not sure yet, probably until the end of the month. I've been quite busy in the US lately." Gong Cheng took a bite of his food, raised his head, clinked glasses with the director, and drank it all in one gulp.

"It's really busy." The adoptive mother sighed with mixed feelings, and then wanted to ask about Zhao Meiyan, but when she saw the camera and director beside her, she shut her mouth and said nothing.

"Don't worry, the first thing we'll do when we get back to Seoul is go home and eat." Gong Cheng put down his bowl and chopsticks with a smile, then stood up, "I'm going to the balcony to get some fresh air, you guys eat first, Brother Cunhao."

Then he came to the balcony surrounded by flowers and plants, lay on the rocking chair where his adoptive father often lay, and picked up the guitar beside him.

Yawning and plucking the strings.

Staying at home tonight, Gong Cheng will return to the dormitory and company tomorrow morning to rest for a day. He will also take a look at the company's regulations for the trip to the United States. He will take off for the United States the day after tomorrow.

Under the cover of night, from the living room behind the balcony, the director's voice could be heard interviewing the adoptive parents.

"Why do you support Tarot to become a singer?"

"Because he's so happy when he sings." The adoptive mother put down her chopsticks and didn't mind sharing her son with the camera. "Don't be fooled by him always laughing. He wasn't like that when he was little."

"What kind of character is that?"

"Stubborn." The adoptive mother took a sip of wine with a nostalgic look on her face, then put down the wine glass, stood up and took out an iron box in the living room, from which she took out some yellowed photos, but the surface mounted on transparent glass was still reflective from being wiped.

On the contrary, the adoptive father beside him smiled calmly and didn't say much.

"Here, in the photo of the parents' meeting in junior high school, he was ranked first in the whole grade, and the other children ranked second in the class were all smiling happier than him." The adoptive mother's small iron box was like a time storage machine, from which she took out one object after another that recorded Gong Cheng's growth.

"The remote control car his dad bought him was really popular in those two years, but he broke it after just two days of playing with it."

"Tarot was so handsome when he was a child." The VJ girl in charge of the filming couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. If this kind of looks were in her childhood school, it would be a motivation for her to go to school!
"Of course. When we were young, I took Xiaocheng out to buy groceries and go shopping, and everyone praised my son for being so handsome." The adoptive mother shook her head and laughed heartily, then took out the yellowed letters from the bottom of the iron box.

"These are the love letters he received at school. Lots and lots of them. Hey, there were so many girls surrounding my son, but he barely read them. On the other hand, I opened and read them quite a bit, so I kept some of the better love poems for him and put them here."

"Some of the others, those with typos or those that weren't written with enough sincerity, were destroyed!"

The VJ girl holding the camera twitched her lips, looking puzzled. "Why not go and see it? Normally, the boys in my school would celebrate with great joy when they received love letters from girls, right?"

"What's more, being liked by so many girls is wonderful. If I don't go and see them, I always feel like I'm letting others down, and myself too."

The adoptive father took a sip of wine, only drinking a little, but still very satisfied: "As for Xiaocheng, he has known what to do at what stage since he was a child, so he has always been very restrained..."

He thought about it with a nostalgic look on his face, and couldn't help but recall the scandal that had spread throughout the country since Gong Cheng's debut. "Then he was admitted to Yonsei University, debuted, and now he's finally here. Maybe he's got everything he wanted, and he shouldn't be restrained anymore."

As he spoke, the adoptive father glanced sideways at the lazy figure plucking the strings of a guitar on the windowsill.

The director and VJ were a little confused by what was said, but they didn't think much about it and quickly moved on to the next question.

"..."

Gong Cheng heard what his adoptive father said in the living room, looked at the night sky and smiled. He grew up in Yeongdeungpo and worked hard, and then earned money while studying, and finally raised enough money for the heavy surgery fee and received the admission notice from Yonsei University.

Debuting, making money, oh my god, I always feel that these past ten years have been very tiring.

So, he should stop restraining himself!

"The sky is vast and boundless~"

"I will leap for you too~"

Gong Cheng was lying on the rocking chair, plucking the strings of the guitar with his five fingers dangling on it, humming a song casually.

A song whose name he hadn't decided on yet, which he sang to Minatozaki Sana under the starry sky that night. He thought about releasing the single after returning from California.

"More tears~"

"I am willing to shed tears for you too~"

In the living room, the adoptive parents listened to Gong Cheng's singing. They were no longer surprised by it and explained to the camera, "When Xiao Cheng is at home, he likes to sit on the balcony and sing when he has nothing to do..."

The photographer VJ said hello to the adoptive parents and came to the balcony with the camera.

In the camera, Gong Cheng was lying lazily on a chair, with his tall figure and the wooden guitar in his arms easily, his cheeks raised, and his black hair swaying slightly in the night breeze.

Under the night sky, the face with calm smile was humming a song, and it seemed that he didn't mind the VJ filming.

"When true love comes~"

"This is not a serious crime~"

"Let our souls~intertwine~"

Gong Cheng stopped singing, but his fingertips were still plucking the strings. He chuckled and said to the VJ girl, "Take a picture of the stars. They are very bright tonight."

Just 5 minutes ago, he sent a message to Sana Minatozaki, asking her to look up and pay attention to the night sky tonight. It was rare to have such a dense cluster of stars in Seoul, it was very beautiful.

Cou Xiaogou asked him where he was and wanted to go with him to see it, but he refused.

"A new song? Can we shoot it?" VJ asked hesitantly. She was also a fan of Gong Cheng, but she had never heard this song in any of his albums.

"Sure, I'll release it at the end of the month after returning from the US," Gong Cheng explained with a smile, "So don't worry. After all, the documentary you're shooting is a big production, so the song will be released before the documentary."

The camera nodded, then "looked up" and gazed at the stars in the night sky.

"Cupid's Arrow~"

"I've already shot it at you~"

"Don't miss out on this love and let yourself regret it~" Gong Cheng sang warmly, and I wondered if Cou Xiaogou must be looking up at the stars from the dormitory balcony. I wondered if she would see the documentary after it was released.

I sing this for you! Even if I can't see it, I'll find a way for you to see it!
Hey~ I don’t want to wait until after the dating ban next year to date, let’s start as soon as possible, Sana-chan!
……

On August 7, the Bombardment Meteor team boarded a flight to Los Angeles, with a total flight time of about 11 hours.

This time, both SM and JYP have sent more entourages and bodyguards than ever before. They are expected to stay in California for about 20 days, and it will take at least half a month to return to Seoul.

In addition to some music video shooting and song recording, the most important thing is that they will be on the Coachella stage.

The Coachella Music Festival was held in Indio, California, USA in previous years. It is a three to six-day music event and stage. The organizers will invite their signed artists and many well-known musicians and bands to participate. As one of the three major music festivals held in California, Coachella is the largest and has the strongest band lineup.

Coachella, which used to be held in April, has been postponed to August for some reason. This year's festival will last six days, starting on the 16th and ending on the 22nd.

Bombardment Meteor and Gong Cheng are also on the invitation list of Coachella this year. According to the organizers, in addition to them, a series of big names such as Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, Coldplay, and Bruno Mars will also participate.

The lineup was even bigger than in previous years. Gong Cheng guessed that was the reason for the postponement. His solo performance was scheduled for the 16th, while Bombardment Meteor's original performance was scheduled for the 18th, but after some negotiation, it was moved to the 22nd, the festival's final day.

This arrangement was made because Gong Cheng planned to release the third volume of the series on August 22nd.

It's a good opportunity for them to sing songs from their new album directly on the Coachella stage. Compared to the Coachella event in previous years which attracted around 100,000 people, even three days can mobilize 300,000 audiences, let alone six days this year.

It is estimated that there will be a lot of fans coming from all over the world, after all, Coachella is a big event.

"When we get to Los Angeles, let's go surfing first?" Jackson Wang suggested while lying on the first-class chair and taking a sip of wine.

Gong Cheng thought this was a good idea and was about to agree when Wu Sehun came over with an embarrassed look on his face, "Maknae, can you do me a favor?"

"What's wrong, brother Sehun?" Gong Cheng looked at his expression and felt that something was wrong with this brother.

Wu Sehun glanced at the curious expressions of the members around him, and took out the briefcase from his trouser pocket with courage, and found a small card in the compartment of various bank cards.

"You're still a fan, Sehun?" Park Jae-bum looked at the small card in his hand in surprise. He's an artist, but he's also a fan? I've never heard that Sanpao is a fan before.

"Hey, what kind of star am I chasing after?" Wu Sehun curled his lips, then spread out the small card and stuffed it into Gong Cheng's hand.

Gong Cheng looked at the photo on the card and couldn't help but shrink back into the cabin, putting on a fist fight. "Ah Xi, don't scare me, brother. What the hell do you mean by stuffing my card in your wallet?"

For a moment, the members looked at Wu Sehun with strange and teasing eyes.

"Oh my god, this is a very precious card of the maknae. It's been sold for 50,000 RMB in the market." Zhang Yixing looked at the card with battle-damaged makeup and couldn't help but sigh. Converted into Korean won, it's worth 10 million Korean won, and it's still appreciating.

The main reason is that this photo card is so damn rare! It is also very meaningful to fans and Gong Cheng personally. It is a photo card from Gong Cheng's first album after his debut, and there are very few of them on the market.

"Ah! It's not mine. Am I crazy enough to spend 10 million won to buy the maknae's photo card?" Wu Sehun stared at Gong Cheng's cheek with resentment, plopped down on the seat next to him, and after glancing at the first class cabin to see that there were no company staff or outsiders, he sighed helplessly.

"Don't mention it. I get mad just seeing the youngest's face! Didn't I just start dating a new girlfriend recently? I'm going to the US soon. I saw her last night."

"Before she left, she told me how handsome the maknae was. Oh my god, I almost wanted to beat the maknae to death."

Wu Se-hun's face was gloomy. "Then she gave me the card and asked me to get an autograph for her..."

"Hey, what's the big deal? I have a pen, I can sign a hundred." Gong Cheng was quite amused, lying on the chair, grinning. "You don't have any expression, Sehun? Hey, your mother called another man handsome in front of you, can you bear it?" Park Jae-beom asked curiously, leaning over the back of the chair.

"Let's break up, Sehun. You've dated so many girls, so changing one won't be a big deal." Park Chanyeol knew this friend's habits very well. Every time they dated, the feeling was so pure, but he would be dumped after just two days.

"Hey, why break up? Stop giving me stupid advice." Wu Sehun waved his hands awkwardly and said his solution, "Hey, honey, you're right!"

"..."

Everyone turned their heads away speechlessly, lowering their eye bags. What the hell, "..."

"6!" Lin Yingxiong gave him a thumbs-up. "Sehun, you and the youngest are two extremes. He's daring and reckless, while you're flexible..."

"..."

……

When the flight to Los Angeles took off, there was an uproar in Seoul.

The eleven trainees who qualified for debut in the talent show "Produce 101 Season 2" this year released their first mini album "1X1=1 (TO BE ONE)" on CJ E&M today. WANNA ONE officially debuted with a total of 7 songs included in the album.

Once it was released, it seemed as if the fan group of "Eight-Party Tearing & Broken Wing Plan" had found their backbone, and it was directly praised in major forums!

"Knowing that our WANNA ONE is debuting today, did the Pao Tuan flee to the United States by plane?"

"The Bereaved Dog Brigade! ARMYs, Ailis, Birdbabies, VIPs, Fairy Queens... Now is the time for us to unite and defeat Bombardment Meteor. Let's crush them completely and end this battle!"

"Pray for the Bombardment Meteor plane to crash!"

"Shit, those bastards on the street are too vicious, aren't they? Running away? Oppa, there's no way you can escape from your dark skin! Give you a little brother! Improve your family genes! Wait until this crappy talent show team of yours gets first place before you try to scam me!"

"..."

Since the end of Bombardment Meteor's three-day promotion at the end of last month, even though they are not promoting any songs, they have still won all the No. 1 spots so far.

"The songs of this talent show group are indeed pretty good, but there is still a gap between them and the regular groups." In BLACKPINK's dormitory, Kim Jennie took off her headphones and said something pertinent.

"The data speaks for itself. Aren't songs like 'Rooftop' and 'Once Loved' always dominating the charts of major music websites?" Park Chae-young was speechless. She didn't know where these fans got the confidence to say that.

These songs that are firmly at the top of the charts are all hit songs of the year. Even the pre-release song "Let It Be" has a strong staying power. And there is also the Korean song "Any Song" from Gong Cheng's first official album, which is a sure-fire hit.

Not to mention his global English singles that are popular all over the world.

"The quarrel online is so fierce." Kim Ji-soo curled her lips and couldn't help cursing, "I let you always act like a jerk, and now you've offended people to death, right?"
"However, it seems that the third album of these brothers' series is much more grand than the first two albums? They all went to California? Are they going on vacation?" Jin Jenny asked curiously.

"Oh my god..." Lisa, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly swallowed her saliva and looked at the message on her phone, "They went to Coachella..."

On the screen, the announcement jointly released by SM and JYP explained to many fans the purpose of Bombardment Meteor's trip and a preview of the third album in the series.

"Coachella? Are you kidding?" Kim Jenny opened her mouth in shock. "Bombardment Meteor?"

"If you're talking about Gong Cheng oppa alone, I believe it, but did the entire Bombardment Meteor group participate? They're so popular overseas?"

"Because of Gong Sung oppa's support, Bombing Meteor is also very popular abroad. Although it is not a blockbuster group, its current popularity is still very high." Park Chae-young nodded, recalling the information she got from chatting with some friends abroad.

……

When the outside media and fans were deeply immersed in the sensation brought by WANNA ONE's debut, JYP and SM were like some major forces or villain sanctuaries in novels. They released new announcements in a domineering manner and suppressed these noisy voices.

Dear fans, our artists Tarot and Bombardment Meteor have been invited to this year's Coachella Music Festival. Tarot will be performing her own songs at the festival.

【而8月22日，Bombardment Meteor将会在科切拉表演系列3辑最新歌曲——系列3辑《3#Crown》——王冠】

The album's audio will be released simultaneously on major music websites on August 22nd. After communication and coordination, Bombardment Meteor will livestream the Coachella stage on August 22nd, introducing the background and meaning of "Crown" to fans around the world.

[Bombing Meteor sincerely invites all fans to listen to a music feast that will bombard the world]

Next stop: Coachella

Bombardment Meteor is coming soon, so stay tuned!

Following the joint announcement from the four companies, the Coachella official website platform also began to announce the list of invited guests for the six-day Coachella Music Festival to fans around the world.

-

The Weekend, Eminem, Tarot, Justin Bieber, Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Alt-J, Jamiroquai, Odesza, Bombardment Meteor…

-

Dozens of well-known superstars and bands that have long been on the Billboard charts made countless people scream in anticipation.

European and American media have praised this year's Coachella Festival as "the craziest music festival ever." Nearly every famous singer in the world will be attending this year's Coachella stage...

【Tarot debuts at Coachella Music Festival!】

[New superstar Tarot and Bombardment Meteor have left for Los Angeles and are expected to arrive in the early morning]

【…】

While the world's major superstars dominate the hot searches in various countries one after another.

American media reported: [From Tarot's debut last year to the formation of Bombardment Meteor, the footprints they have left along the way are the path to legend. It is like a desperate counterattack after being abandoned by the world, and more like the tempering of this chosen one by God.]

[And his team, Bombardment Meteor, is like pirates in the Age of Exploration, frantically plundering gold and fame in the Peninsula and Asia. Now the captain is about to lead the pirates to Coachella to launch a new round of war.]

As a fan of Tarot, I suggest all Bombardment Meteor fans raise their own pirate flags and take Coachella by storm!!!

Under the extensive coverage of foreign media.

The citizens of Seoul are still watching the preview posters released by JYP and SM official websites. There are so many preview photos released for the third series that it is dizzying.

Starting from the poster at the top, individual posters were released one after another in order of the ages of the members of Bombing Meteor.

Park Jae-bum frowned, and next to the lion on his chest, the crown tattoo composed of 7 shooting stars was exposed to everyone.

Lin Yingxiong stood in front of the sea of ​​Jeju Island with a deep expression...

……

At the bottom, in the poster of a group photo of all members, the seven members of Bombardment Meteor are arranged in an inverted triangle against a black and white background, leaving behind a series of tall silhouettes in black suits.

Gong Cheng, who is located in the center of the poster, looks back sharply at the camera.

Scrolling down further, the last poster is full of animation style, like the brushstrokes of the painter, with golden stairs leading straight to the clouds. Looking down from the bottom, there is also a very small banner [Broken Wing Plan & Eight-Family Joint Tear]

The stairs are surrounded by dense cartoon figures, and on the Internet, at the top of the golden road, there are 7 cartoon boys sitting on the funny throne at the top of the poster. The cartoon faces with 7 golden crowns allow everyone to distinguish which member's anime style it is at a glance.

At the very center of the page, the title of the third album in the series, [3#Crown], was outlined in black and gold font. Around the album logo, falling gold coins resembled golden raindrops—huge, exaggerated, and childish.

"Ashiba! Is this a provocation? Or is he announcing that he has reached the summit?"

"Coachella is amazing, right? Isn't the artillery group in Xiba too crazy?"

"Reaching the summit? These hot-blooded bastards!!!"

"..."

In the noisy comment section, densely packed fans and stargazers were paying attention to the latest announcements from the four companies, and for a moment they forgot about WANNA ONE, whom they had high hopes for.

In Red Velvet's dormitory, Bae Joo-hyun stared at the comment "Isn't the Xiba artillery group too crazy?" and her pupils shrank for a moment.

As she slid the screen and saw the Bombardment Meteor group variety show trailer that had already loaded, the familiar night scene and location made her unable to help but glance at Kang Seul-gi beside her.

Jiang Seulgi swallowed her saliva, a little hesitant to click in. Of course she remembered when this group variety show was filmed, and she and Joohyun were right next to it, soaking their feet in the river.

But someone's words that echoed in the valley shocked everyone and made them lose interest in soaking their feet.

As for the craziness mentioned in the comments section? Oh my god! The words in the group show are the real craziness...

"Hurry up and open it, unnie." Kim Ye-rin looked at the group variety show highlights that were loaded with great difficulty, and was so curious that she reached out and clicked the play button.

"Yerin!" Bae Joo-hyun called out, then said nothing more, holding her breath. She could prevent the members from clicking on the video, but she couldn't prevent everyone in Seoul from doing so.

However, she really didn't expect JYP, SM, and Gong Cheng to be so bold as to release this clip? Did they think their situation wasn't good enough?

In the short 1-minute preview of Bombardment Meteor's group variety show.

The dim riverside allows for clear visibility of each member thanks to the faint neon lights near the beach, while the figures of Bae Joo-hyun and Kang Seul-gi, who were sitting at the very edge of the beach, were cut out in post-production.

"Why don't I see you two, unnie?" Son Seungwan asked, but then he thought that the relationship between his unnie and Gong Cheng might be cut out, and it might stay on the hot search for a long time.

“We’re going to get to the top aaaaaaaaa!”

In the quiet video, there is no special dubbing or BGM. The camera is very stable. Apart from the sound of waves by the river and the roaring night wind, there is only the roar of Park Jae-bum holding the wine bottle!
The sound echoed in the valley and on the river, and the echo stretched out very long...

"Oh my god, these guys really don't hide their desire to reach the top at all." Park Soo-young murmured.

"The maknae said that we want to sing on the biggest stage in the world, and we will definitely do it!!" Lin Yingxiong stepped on a chair, looking at the river, with his hands on his mouth, like a megaphone.

"Let our album sales and music sources explode all over the world!!!" Zhang Yixing's voice was a little softer than the previous two people, but his momentum was no less!

"We have to stay cool! Even if we cry, we have to be cool!" Park Chanyeol was like a chatterbox, shouting non-stop in the valley. He turned his head and asked Wang Jiaer beside him, "Jackson, they say we are villains?"

"Then we're really badass?" Jackson Wang laughed out loud. "I want the whole world to know who Jackson is and who Bombardment Meteor is!!!"

Bae Joo-hyun was shaking her short legs nervously on the sofa, they were almost like a sieve. Soon it was Wu Sehun's turn, and then it was the Gangnam Dance King who spoke without restraint and called Daegu women all the time.

"Stop shaking your legs, unnie." Kim Ye-rin patted her legs, trying to get her to stop. Before their debut, the company specifically warned artists to correct all these bad habits and make them go away!

"Let's keep going together, Bombardment Meteor!!!" Wu Sehun took a sip of his wine and shouted towards the river, "We will get better and better, more and more successful!!!"

He turned and smiled at the members, "My brothers, the maknae and I bought a new white horse at a horse farm in Jeju Island a few days ago. It's called Meteor!"

"I'll be participating in my first horse race at the end of July. I'll definitely finish first! Let's go and watch!"

In the comments section of the group variety show's behind-the-scenes footage, many old Seoul residents were shocked. "So the horse 'Meteor' that won the race two days ago was actually bought by Tarot and Oh Se-hun?"

"Oh my god, that horse from the gossamer 'Mighty Shocking the World' and 'Longtan Rat'? Ever since that race, he's been the favorite to win!"

"Oh my god! Do these guys really enjoy themselves? Horse racing, surfing, off-roading? Are they even choosing concubines in private?"

"..."

Bae Joo-hyun has no intention of paying attention to the white horse or dark horse right now. She knows that Gong Cheng is about to say something that can shake the entire K-pop world.

The main reason is that those words were too destructive. It seems that not many artists can escape from them!
But in Red Velvet's sight, after Gong Cheng stood up, the behind-the-scenes video of the group variety show came to an abrupt end, and Bae Joo-hyun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Shit! Why don't you just release what the Tarot said before ending it?"

"Really? It's really suspenseful! So when will the group variety show be released?"

Kim Ye-rin scratched her head curiously and couldn't help but hug Bae Joo-hyun's arm, "Ouni, what kind of bold words did Oppa say? Can you and Seul-gi share them with us?"

"He...he didn't say anything..." Bae Joo-hyun pushed away the maknae's hand with an unnatural look on her face, then found an excuse and went back to the room with her phone.

"Hey, you're not really going to show that segment from the group show, are you? You scared me to death just now..."

……

At three o'clock in the morning, the Bombardment Meteor crew, who had just gotten off the plane, stretched their bodies in the airport.

Gong Cheng opened his phone and was busy reporting to his family that he was safe, but when he saw the message Bae Joo Hyun had sent him five hours ago, he smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? It's not like you and Jiang Seul Gi were edited in."

"But thank you for your concern. It doesn't matter whether I let you go or not."

After replying, he put away his phone, took the bottle of water handed to him by Park Chanyeol and took a sip. Since the group variety show has been recorded, it must be broadcast!
However, Gong Cheng has not yet decided whether it can be put on the big screen on the Coachella stage, in addition to before the group variety show is released?

According to his plan for the third album of the series, Bombardment Meteor will not only perform songs from the new album on the Coachella stage, but also play the music videos they shot on the big screen on the stage.

Of course, the MV will not be as professional as before, but some clips from group shows can be cut in.

Everyone in the four companies and the group values ​​this third album in the series extremely highly. As long as this album is a hit, what does it matter if they're mad at it? Just one more word will only hurt those with fragile hearts.

Moreover, Bombardment Meteor's situation is no different from when that sentence was released. It is nothing more than being attacked again!
But if this final album of Series 3 could become a huge hit in Europe and America, then the Seoul media and fans of each album could only puff out their chests with pride, "Tarot! You did it!"

"..."

Gong Cheng shook his head with a smile, and after Park Jae-Bum and Lim Young-Woong came out of the restroom, they walked out of Los Angeles International Airport.

The whirring flash lights and fans coming to greet people at the airport made the quiet airport bustling with activity late at night.

Fans of different skin colors held small cards and some K-pop products that they had never seen before, and passed their hands over the cordon to Gong Cheng. They briefly signed autographs and took photos with the fans who came to pick them up at the airport.

Perhaps many fans came from other countries specially and waited until 3 o'clock in the morning just to meet him and hand him a letter.

Gong Cheng naturally didn't wear sunglasses. He waved his hand, got into the nanny car, and drove away...

"Tarot Oppa, we're meeting at Coachella!"

"Welcome to Los Angeles! California welcomes you, the oppas of Bombardment Meteor!"

"..."

Wu Sehun and his friends felt very happy after hearing the praise. They wrote autographs for fans as quickly as possible without disturbing passers-by, and some of them were reluctant to leave.

Reporters and media in Los Angeles pointed their cameras at Gong Cheng's smiling profile. His handsome face and tall figure beneath his thick black hair made them realize why all the major fashion brands were madly pursuing him.

A blonde female reporter couldn't help but shove her camera into her colleague's hand and squeezed over. "Let's take a picture together, Tarot?"

She has photographed many international superstars, including Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, and some well-known Hollywood stars, but she has never seen a superstar so dazzling, just standing there makes people want to get close to her and get to know her.

"OK." Gong Cheng took her phone, his warm smiling eyes fixed on the screen.

The media and reporters filming outside have already thought of the headline for their article tonight: [Tarot Lands in Los Angeles]

[Sally, a famous reporter from a Los Angeles newspaper, falls in love with a superstar Tarot]

[Bombardment Meteor members arrive in California]

[Tarot claims to like bikini hotties]
