The number one playboy on the Peninsula!

Chapter 318 Mina: "Your boyfriend is great!" (Seeking monthly votes)
"Yes, you heard me right..."

"...Continue to increase investment in the CP marketing for [Kujiro Miyamoto], understand?"

In JYP's president's office, Park Jin-young stood upright in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, earnestly emphasizing to his subordinate on the other end of the phone.

"Moragu?"

"Afraid of surpassing the popularity of [Honey Fish Ice Makoto], [High-Speed ​​Miyashiro], [Sa Makoto Baku], and [Strawberry Palace Master]?"

Park Jin-young muttered to himself about his subordinate's report, then couldn't help but burst out cursing, "Damn it, does your marketing department even want to stay in business?"

"It even surpasses [Honey Fish Ice Makoto] and [High-Speed ​​Miyashika]..."

"Could you please make [Kujiro Gorichi] more popular than [Namiya Wentian] first?"

……

"..."

Outside the office door, Gong Cheng stood in the corridor, his face twitching, staring at Park Jin-young's broken back. Damn it!
Is this how everyone starts mooching off others now?
Toilet paper wasn't enough to entertain you, so you had to personally engage in bromance?
"What are the key marketing points for [Kouto Gorichi]?"

"Do I even need to tell you? It's all about looks!"

"Top 1 of the world's 100 most handsome faces & local Leonardo DiCaprio..." Park Jin-young gazed intently at the scenery of Gangdong outside the window, but his tone was inexplicably confident. "The other day, I was filming a live video with a water gun at a concert?"

"Post a screenshot and compare it with Leonardo DiCaprio's water gun photo, don't you understand?"

"In three days, I want to see [Miyafuji Gorichi] surpass [Namiya Menten]..."

After saying that, Park Jin-young hung up the phone abruptly, secretly thinking that the company's marketing department was becoming increasingly incompetent, unable to handle such a small matter. And considering the various comebacks of the past two years, certain departments within the company definitely needed restructuring.

In any case, it is now the largest local brokerage firm.

As for his junior, Gong Cheng, since his debut album, he has never allowed other departments to get involved in the promotion of any of his albums. All the content and key points of the promotion are written in the plan, which clearly shows that he does not trust the ability of certain departments in the company, which is enough to explain the problem.

The makeup, styling, and clothing of some of the groups under its umbrella have not received very good reviews from fans.

After a brief moment of deliberation, Park Jin-young decided to make adjustments at the company's year-end general meeting. As the company grew larger, he had delegated some authority to management this year, but no one was willing to take responsibility. He wondered if he should temporarily halt his book project, "From JYP to Park Jin-young ②".

First, we need to organize the various departments within the company. After all, the return of an artist has a huge impact on aspects such as makeup, styling, and promotion. If the promotion is lukewarm, unless the song or stage performance is exceptionally good, it will be like boiling a frog in lukewarm water.

With so many artists in the company, not everyone is a "Tarot," someone who generates buzz and whose every fart can resonate throughout the local entertainment scene.

Park Jin-young turned around, deciding to first take a good look at the grand plan of [ATM]!
But when he looked up, he saw Gong Cheng standing outside the door with a speechless expression. "Cheng, when did you get here?" A pair of bright, piercing eyes sized Gong Cheng up and down, the expression somewhat awkward...

My dearest junior brother, I hope he heard the call just now?

"……hehe."

"I've been here since my brother started promoting [Gorilla Miyato]."

Gong Cheng, holding a glass of orange juice, made a sarcastic remark with a forced smile. Then, noticing the ATM-themed proposal in Park Jin-young's hand, he immediately wanted to turn around and leave. "You're about to go on tour in Japan, come say hello to your brother..."

Hearing his words, Park Jin-young, with a thick skin, narrowed his eyes and sat down on the sofa. "Arasso, the tour will take a long time, so you'll have to work hard from now on."

"Actually... this is what I think about [Kujiro Miyato]."

He crossed his legs, feeling rather embarrassed, and sheepishly explained, "Let's build up some buzz first, to warm up for the launch of [ATM]." This was the truth in his heart; in Park Jin-young's eyes, [ATM] would be the greatest combination ever!!!
These words also implied that Park Jin-young desperately wanted to break into the US market and compete against his junior colleague...

"Hey bro, I didn't mean to say anything."

"Don't you have anything serious to do these days? It's either writing your autobiography or going on stage and doing events everywhere..." Gong Cheng blurted out the truth without thinking, but seeing Park Jin-young's cold gaze, he immediately changed his words, "It's either writing your autobiography or going on stage and doing events everywhere..."

"Either he's an ATM or something, he doesn't look like a company president at all."

Both in their professional and personal lives, and with the backing of their alma mater, the two could be described as "colluding in evil." But this year, this guy has really become a bit arrogant, neglecting his duties. As the president of a large company, he spends all his time indulging in activities as a solo artist, JY Park...

The simplest example is the massive display of leather pants on the runway this year. Are leather pants really that good-looking?
"Don't worry about the ATM. We can look into it after we're done with this year's work..."

Gong Cheng was really being pestered by this senior. Although he was called a senior, Park Jin-young had a good relationship with his mentor Shin Kyung-ho at Yonsei University. Otherwise, when he signed with JYP, his mentor would not have asked Park Jin-young to take care of him.

As a renowned local producer and professor at Yonsei University, the professor has extensive resources at major local television stations. Going back ten or twenty years, he has been involved in the production of many hit songs and OSTs for popular TV dramas and movies across the peninsula.

Before he started his career, Park Jin-young relied heavily on his teachers for help, as he originally studied geology in school and was a latecomer to the field. Some of the resources he secured for television stations were facilitated by his teachers…

"If you say that, I'm relieved..."

Park Jin-young nodded with satisfaction, showing no dissatisfaction whatsoever with Gong Cheng's overstepping of bounds.

He knew the company's internal situation very well. Gong Cheng's contract was about to expire. If possible, he would even be willing to let this junior brother officially become a shareholder, join the board of directors, and be tied to the company.

But thinking about it, he felt it was impossible. Since last year, his junior brother's activities had become increasingly large, including investing, speculating in cryptocurrencies, and, as rumored in the industry, acquiring a lot of scripts this year. He also thought about the production team led by Bong Joon-ho behind his junior brother.

I reckon they're starting some kind of collaboration with Netflix...

In a sense, this junior has been transitioning since last year, but it's not as simple as switching from singer to actor.

"Hey bro, this is the software I told you about last time. Take a look at the details..."

“The app is currently in internal testing, and the company doesn’t need to be responsible for maintenance. Dear U will handle it.” Gong Cheng took out a document that the representative director of Dear U had delivered yesterday from his bag and handed it to Park Jin-young.

"For the company, the main responsibility is to get its artists onboarded. Fans subscribe to the artists' accounts, and the artists can chat, reply to fan messages, or post selfies in their spare time. This helps to get closer to the fans and increase fan loyalty."

He described the function and influence of the software [Bubble], saying, "The main selling point is one-on-one paid chat between fans and celebrities, sports stars, and internet celebrities. It is expected to be launched by the end of the year."

"..."

Park Jin-young carefully reviewed the proposal. Gong Cheng had mentioned it to him before. If it was something that could make money for the artists and the company, he would naturally have no reason to refuse if it was suitable. However, after reading through the entire proposal and the introduction of the [Bubble] app, he was quite taken aback.

He looked up. "Dear U...you've invested?"

“Well, their company’s financial situation wasn’t good last year, and I happened to be looking for someone to develop this software, so I invested.” Gong Cheng smiled and took a sip of orange juice. “Coincidentally, Dear U mainly focuses on software development and operation and maintenance.”

"After a year of internal adjustments, this project was launched this year."

Park Jin-young switched to businessman mode, narrowing his eyes, "Besides JYP, which other companies will we collaborate with?"

"YG, SM, CUBE... Besides the larger agencies, we're also in talks with some smaller ones," Gong Cheng replied. He explained that the representatives from YG and SM were the ones negotiating the collaborations.

It would be easier for JYP to negotiate directly...

"Pretty good..."

"But it's easy for others to copy and produce similar software, so it might not be so convenient if you want to negotiate collaborations with other companies." Park Jin-young sighed, reminding his junior colleague. After all, once this software is launched, compared to celebrities constantly running around...

This money is so easy to make! Just chat with your paid subscribers when you have some free time. Not only will the artist get a share of the subscription fees, but the management company will also get a cut, and Dear U will also generate revenue...

"That's not a problem."

"First, we can earn patent fees. In addition, if Kpop partners with us, not only will I join the app, but TWICE will also join. The fan base is huge enough. Artists from smaller agencies can also benefit from the broader influence, because we will enable community functions in the app. Joining artists can send videos and photos to attract attention and subscriptions, which is also a way to increase followers."

"This is the advantage of having a large fan base. We allow artists to ride on the coattails and allow cross-fandoms! But if a company were to replicate this, and only allow fans of a few obscure groups under its umbrella to subscribe... why bother? Once many popular artists join [Bubble], the trend will be [Bubble].

"Just like last year's challenge, it sets a new trend."

Gong Cheng chuckled as he spoke. The challenge he popularized last year was essentially a way for artists or groups to ride each other's coattails, cross-promote each other's popularity, and attract more fans. Since last year, the challenge has become a regular feature on the schedules of artists from various agencies.

However, when it comes to this, he still feels a little guilty. Over the past year, the idol romance index has skyrocketed, partly because of the challenge. Idols take a liking to each other, then get to know each other, have secret meetings, and secretly date...

"Furthermore, would other talent agencies be able to bring in artists like Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, and other Western singers?"

Gong Cheng said with great skepticism that if the development of [Bubble] becomes more stable, they could talk to Taylor and the others about cooperation, which is also a kind of "celebrity effect".

Not to mention that influence can snowball... Once the user base is large, cross-cultural and cross-circle collaborations, whether it's Western pop stars, sports stars, or K-pop artists, bring immeasurable traffic and attention. Once the brand image is established, it will be much easier to accept advertisements, expand into new businesses, or collaborate with other industries.

Park Jin-young pondered for a moment, then nodded and looked at Gong Cheng with admiration, "Do you need me to move in?"

"Solo singer Park Jin-young?"

Gong Cheng's face twitched slightly as he asked, but he still chuckled, "I couldn't be happier, brother..."

Seeing that things were settled, he smiled and said, "Then I'll have someone come and sign the contract when I have some free time, senior." He left the rest to his Dear U company team to handle; he was just in charge of making the initial contact. Professional matters should be left to professionals!

"Okay, you can focus on the tour."

Park Jin-young said, but deep down he felt a sense of loss. How could he possibly stay in this mess? He never expected his junior brother to transform so quickly and successfully. If he could rapidly capture the market, once [Bubble] went live, the annual revenue and profit from subscriptions alone would be substantial. Moreover, his junior brother had many other industries and investment projects that were accumulating considerable funds for him…

Not to mention, this junior's earning power is extraordinary. While there's considerable debate among fans regarding the ranking of the "Top 20 Greatest Stars of the 21st Century" as selected by Billboard this summer, the selection of the most commercially valuable superstar of this century...

Without a doubt, "Tarot" is number one. The brand return on investment is incredible... As long as this guy doesn't commit murder or arson, or cross the line with the public, those high-end luxury giants will protect him to the death, whitewashing his image and handling his public relations.

"I'm off, hyung, I'm going to the recording studio to find Nayeon..."

Gong Cheng put away his crossed legs and prepared to record the audio of the song that the big star would feature on before heading to the Japan tour.

He has two love songs featured, but the composer the company hired has only produced one so far. In any case, getting one thing done is one thing at a time; he's not used to dragging things out.

On the contrary, the big star and the little dog have some procrastination issues...

"Go ahead..."

Park Jin-young remained deep in thought; he didn't want his junior to leave, he wanted his junior to renew his contract...

To be honest, the company can't offer him much more help right now. How about trying his charm? But then I think about how this guy has been getting along so well with Bae Joo-hyun from SM Entertainment this year.

He was filled with anguish! How could his precious daughter be ruined by SM Entertainment? Why didn't she try dating other girls under the company? He thought Suzy was quite good…

……

My eyes~ Your eyes~

"Let's go~"

In the recording studio, Gong Cheng, the producer, sat on the equipment table, wearing headphones and watching the big star in the studio. "Love Countdown," for which Lim Nayeon co-wrote the lyrics, was currently being recorded.

Recording a song in a studio is more laborious and time-consuming than recording it live, as the goal is to achieve perfection. It can be recorded section by section or line by line, with additional recordings made for each line.

Some singers choose this recording method because they are short of breath, but the breathing noise on site is quite loud, hence the nickname "recording studio god". Big stars, on the other hand, record songs with several interspersed choruses that need to be recorded in sections and timed to the beat.

The intro to "Love Countdown" features a light and lively bass line that leaps out like a nimble sprite, followed by rhythmic strumming that outlines a vibrant tone, perfectly matching the star's quirky personality and energetic style.

Tell me~ you want to be my lover~

"You're definitely meant to be mine alone~"

"Faster..."

Lim Na-yeon wore headphones, her hair in a low ponytail, a few strands of hair scattered across her smooth forehead, and her small face with her rabbit teeth showing. Her expression was joyful, just like the heart pounding in her chest. As soon as she looked at the male producer outside the studio, her heart started pounding non-stop.

"..."

"Next paragraph."

Gong Cheng listened to the sound source once, smiled with satisfaction, and started recording the next segment.

"..."

More than forty minutes later...

Gong Cheng walked into the recording studio, put on his headphones, and glanced at his lyrics for the song "Love Countdown." Two people co-wrote the lyrics: one was a big star, and the other was himself.

In the featured section, the male part, the big star insisted on writing the lyrics himself.

Wearing a pink hooded sweatshirt, Lim Nayeon stood in front of the microphone, her petite frame swaying and dancing to the beat, humming the lyrics cheerfully to the arranged music.

"Just watch me now~"

"10 to 1 is the countdown to your love life~"

With her bright eyes and a wide grin, she finished singing her part, then looked up at the tall boy beside her with sparkling eyes. He was wearing headphones and had a gentle smile on his face. For a moment, Lim Nayeon thought that TWICE's practice room was right upstairs from the recording studio...

Jeongyeon, Sana, Mina, the maknae, Chaeyoung, Momo... the members are probably still busy practicing right now~
She felt a sense of happiness, as if her best friends and loved ones were right beside her.
Listening to the melody and drumbeats in my headphones...

Gong Cheng pulled up the microphone that was hanging in the air and softly opened his mouth, "I'm tired~"

"..."

"Teach me, girl!"

I once thought that as long as I could look at you...

"Then I'll understand your heart~"

But in the end, you saw right through me.

……

The recording of "Love Countdown" was completed in the evening.

Gong Cheng and Lin Nayeon sat side by side in front of the equipment, listening to the audio they had just recorded through their headphones. He chuckled softly, "Not bad~"

"Your lyrics are really good..."

As Lim Nayeon listened to her boyfriend's words through her earphones, "I once thought that as long as I looked at you, I could understand your heart~ But in the end, you saw right through my heart~", she felt a sweet warmth in her heart. Was her boyfriend really that hard to control?

When did my skills in controlling my husband become so powerful?

"As for the music video, let's wait until I get back from Japan? But we can already get the people at the company's third headquarters to prepare the venue and stuff..."

Gong Cheng pondered for a moment before smiling and saying, "The tour in Japan has several stops, and the schedule is quite tight. I could go back to Seoul to rest, but it's not necessary. I still need to do venue scouting and rehearsals during my two or three days of free time..."

The back-and-forth travel was exhausting, but after the Japan and Asia tour, I was able to rest for about half a month before heading to Europe and America to continue the non-stop work.

"How about we just skip the music video, Mr.?"

Lim Nayeon fidgeted with her small hands tucked into her sweatshirt sleeves. There was no one else around, so she addressed him casually. Thinking of her husband, constantly rushing to meet his appointments, she felt a pang of reluctance and heartache.

Wanting to alleviate some of his work pressure, she originally planned to shoot a music video and collaborate on a song with her boyfriend. Once the solo project begins and the music video and audio are released, Zhao Meiyan's expression will probably be quite interesting.
But at this moment, she felt a little soft-hearted, not for Zhao Meiyan, but for her husband's hard work.

"Kenchana~"

"Just wait for me to come back~"

Gong Cheng soothed Lim Nayeon's distressed expression, his concerned eyes and wide, bunny-toothed grin, her body wrapped in a pink hoodie, making her look exactly like a little rabbit, "After you go solo next year..."

"Let's build up a solid foundation first, and then I might release a new album and ask you to collaborate on the title track."

"How's it going, big star?"

He chuckled and winked. The production of some songs for the big star's comeback album was underway. He had recently taken some time to listen to the composers' arrangements and the singles the company had included for her comeback...

The quality is pretty good. Simply put, in the domestic and Asian markets, coupled with the popularity of the big stars within Twice, it's more than enough. It might even gain some recognition in Europe and America.

By joining the project himself, featuring in two songs and their music videos, the reach can be maximized.

She should accumulate some experience first, take it one step at a time, and release a new album next year. She can then team up with big stars to conquer the US market. Her voice and fluency in English are relatively advantageous among Twice members.

Ultimately, it's mainly because of his own mother.
Wanting a big star to get better and better, just like she cares about herself~
……

On October 2th, Gong Cheng released two more songs from his second full-length album, "The Lovers".

"In My Blood" and "Go Crazy" were released simultaneously on major platforms worldwide, along with their music videos.

"..."

Gong Cheng is making final preparations with his world tour team. He will head to Japan tomorrow to officially kick off his tour on the 10th of this month. As the largest music market in Asia, Japan will have more stops than other places.

……

Meanwhile, in TWICE's practice room, the eight members watched with anticipation as the music video loaded.

On the contrary, Mina felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by the members.

Because the music video everyone wants to see is naturally "Go Crazy," which she filmed with Makoto...

Sana Minatozaki and Chaeyoung's cold stares made her instinctively shrink back. Was it really necessary?

All I did was film a music video with Makoto...

Sana Minatozaki stared through gritted teeth at the dark screen. She had never filmed a music video with her little white cabbage before. "..."

Lim Na-yeon looked curious, secretly looking forward to the content of the music video.

I feel like I could take a cue from the level of intimacy between Mina and her boyfriend in their music video. It seems Mina is destined to be the first scapegoat for her and her boyfriend's actions? Maybe she can subtly show off their affection in her solo album later~
They weren't afraid of being exposed anymore.

The "Go Crazy" music video has finished loading...

From the pitch-black video screen, Gong Cheng's signature voice could be heard, a soft, slightly husky melody, "Oh~~ Yeah~~ Eh~"

The languid singing style, as if the melody is swirling in the throat...

Immediately afterwards, the sinking bass and drumbeats suddenly leaped and smashed through the "screen," exploding from the center of the screen with spiderweb-like cracks. The black layer instantly shattered into countless sharp-edged glass shards, scattering in all directions with virtual sharp light...

In that instant, as if the mirror had cracked, neon lights suddenly shone through the dense cracks.

"Oh~yeah~"

With a soft melody~
Mina's soft, sweet voice, like a voice-over, accompanied by an English watermark, read, "Made by TTTTArot!"

“Ayy bring it bring it back bring it back bring it back!!”

The mechanical synthesized sounds, accompanied by drumbeats, heralded the start of the prelude!
"oh~"

Lying in bed, I'm so confused, baby~~

Tell me, are you serious? Because I am serious!

Gong Cheng's R&B vocals suddenly opened, his voice like silk soaked in warm water, sliding out along the gaps in the drumbeats, and then gliding at high speed along with the beat~ with a lazy trill, he swirled in the melody.

The scene then shifts to a mountaintop villa, following the unique singing style.

Gong Cheng's tall figure lay sprawled on the bed, his limbs stretched out and sunk into the soft bedding. The dark blue light shone on his handsome face, but under the special effects, his face beneath his tousled hair was enveloped in a cold red halo, creating a visually psychedelic effect.

"Trap beats? R&B vocals?"

Kim Da-hyun opened her mouth in great surprise. She never denied Da-shuai's musical talent, but she was still amazed by his smooth voice.

Coupled with the MV visuals in the field of vision, the dark blue and cold red glow created an unreal, dreamlike, and absurd atmosphere around Da Da's handsome face and the entire room, as if it were a space between reality and illusion, with an unreal beauty.

"It's like he's taken too much!"

Yu Dingyan made a comment.

Tell me, baby, what should I do after I succeed?

"Wearing Louis Vuitton, I'm already very rich!"

With a hallucinatory voice, the camera in the music video gently sways as he gets up, carrying a slightly dizzy, drunken feeling, moving from the bed to the floor-to-ceiling window of the room. Gong Cheng, barefoot on the cool floor, his figure blurred by the faint light filtering in from the window…

The sky outside the floor-to-ceiling windows was shrouded in a thick, oppressive darkness. Meanwhile, in the villa garden below, dazzling neon lights flashed wildly, their shimmering colors reflecting the hues of champagne, Hennessy, and other spirits with an air of extravagance.

But what really catches the eye is...

"At midnight, I'll head to your house."

I know you miss me~ because I fascinate you~

The scene shifts, and Gong Cheng finds himself in the garden. A gentle evening breeze carries the sounds of the garden's hustle and bustle, along with the smell of alcohol, causing the wisps of hair on his forehead to flutter slightly. Around him, fragments of light and shadow from a rainbow create layers of shimmering light…

In this hazy glow, figures emerged from the depths of the light and shadow, their long, slender, and fair legs dazzlingly bright. Their skin shone brightly under the neon lights, and the lines flowed smoothly from the thighs to the slender ankles. Each step seemed to be in rhythm with the beat of a drum, causing the hem of their skirts or the delicate straps of their bikinis to sway.

Looking further up, one sees a figure with proportions so perfect they're almost unrealistic, a slender waist, and various bikini sets that accentuate her exquisite curves...

"..."

The members of TWICE stared at the somewhat decadent scene on the screen and fell silent for a moment.

The camera almost filled with skin and various standard faces, with models' faces and waists slender and their bodies bulging as they moved around the villa grounds.

"This is too..."

There were a total of 117 models.

Mina quietly explained, "Just watching the music video is enough to make you feel like you're living in a glamorous, decadent world. Let alone what I saw in person! It was almost entirely legs and big breasts..."

"Baby, I can let you go on a trip on a plane~"

"You know, a man like me can change your life~"

Gong Cheng weaved through the elegant crowd. The pop of champagne rang in his ears, and pairs of slender white wrists held glasses, seemingly inviting him to share a drink...

But with a languid expression, she softly hummed lyrics to the camera.
"Oh~ baby~ everything you do fascinates me~"

Rows of luxury cars were parked in the garage. Under the special effects, the sports cars, full of a sense of combat, had dazzling, psychedelic shadows appearing on their bodies. Gong Cheng got into a Mercedes convertible, his tousled hair, dyed in blue, dancing in the wind...

"Nobody's watching us~ Let's go crazy~"

I have what you need~

"Isn't this showing off wealth?" Yoo Jeongyeon couldn't help but mutter, then looked at Mina, "By the way, Mina, didn't you appear in the music video? Where are you?"

……

As soon as he finished speaking,

In the music video, the taillights of a sports car illuminate with white bulbs, and the camera transitions to the moment the headlights turn on...

Everyone thinks you're shy, but I know you're actually pretty crazy!

“Lil' baby~”

Her voice, soft and slightly intoxicated, carried a hint of allure.
Gong Cheng arrived at the door of a villa, raised his hand and knocked on the door. The headlights of the sports car behind him shone on his tall figure. The moment the door opened, Mina's ethereal face appeared in the picture.

She wore a long black silk dress, her fair shoulders were softly draped with long, straight black hair, her delicate nose was adorned with a small mole, and her pale pink lips were slightly upturned.

"The girls on my phone all found out I'm rich, but when they saw I chose the woman I love, they started to change their minds."

"Open the carport and have some fun with her~"

The song, accompanied by heavy drumbeats, began with a ticking sound.

The camera briefly paused on Mina's face, which was tilted and smiling slightly. Comments in the live stream included: "Mina is really pretty...", "She's alright~ I don't know what's so great about her, she's actually quite ordinary," and "That bear is so small!"

"It's not even as good as the big thunder in the villa..."

"Oppa's R&B singing style is so soothing!"

Seeing the comment "This bear is too small?", Mina gritted her teeth and turned off the comments.

"Strike a pose and take a picture!"

"Damn it~ Let loose, baby~ Let me see your one-of-a-kind performance~"

In the music video, Gong Cheng leans casually with his long legs slightly bent, sitting on the smooth hood of a sports car, while Mingai Mina straddles him, her black silk nightgown loosely wrapped around her body, the hem of the dress slightly lifted by the wind...

Her fair and slender arms wrapped tightly around Gong Cheng's neck like vines. Her smooth, long, straight black hair fluttered wildly in the night breeze, the ends brushing against Gong Cheng's cheeks and collarbone, leaving a slight ticklish sensation. A few strands of hair clung to the corners of her lips, trembling gently with her breath.

There was no excessive intimacy, yet a subtle tension permeated the scene. The moon hung in the night sky, and from a distance, the car headlights suddenly blazed on, revealing two figures, their silhouettes beautifully huddled together...

"Holy crap! I can't stand it anymore! Mina-chan, how could you film this kind of MV with Tarot?", "What are you calling Mina's mom? Don't you know who's at a disadvantage? Are you trying to blow up the Mina Bar's forum?", "Is it really necessary for everyone to be so sensitive? Oppa would be interested in a flat-chested girl like Mina? Flat-chested?"

Let me take off your clothes~

"Take off your clothes~"

"Completely naked~ Let's dance~"

The explicit lyrics made Mina blush, and she dared not look at the strange gazes of the other members.

Sana Minatozaki, like a puppy, gritted her teeth and exclaimed, "Baka! How come this guy's lyrics are so lewd these days?!"

The puppy stared intently at the camera, not daring to miss a single second of the shot!

Last time, Xiaobaicai and Lin Yoona kissed in the MV. For the sake of work, she said she understood and tolerated it!
Mina-chan is no good, what a terrible job!

"At midnight, I'll head to your house."

I know you miss me~~

The languid voice still echoed throughout the chorus...

The scene shifts to Gong Cheng and Mingi Nan in the villa's bedroom. Gong Cheng is wearing a black nightgown with the straps slipping down, revealing her fair collarbone and a swan necklace hanging on her skin. Her flushed skin exudes shyness.

Her watery eyes, seemingly brimming with the colors of spring, gazed at Gong Cheng.

Son Chaeyoung clenched her fist. Unnie! You're showing your true feelings, aren't you?!
If she remembered correctly, the nightgown that Mina wore in the MV was the one she had secretly worn before, which led to her being brutally attacked by the man! For a moment, she felt extremely uncomfortable, as if she had been bullied.

But my heart was inexplicably trembling and feeling a sense of pleasure, or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that it was stimulating?
The little tiger immediately slapped his forehead, feeling that his old habit had relapsed...

"You know, a man like me can change your life."

The confident, arrogant lyrics, combined with Gong Chengzhi's dreamlike voice, created a dizzying and addictive feeling. He stepped forward, his arms loosely encircling Mingjing Nan's waist, his fingertips occasionally brushing against the waist and abdomen of her nightgown through a layer of silk, yet still causing her body to shiver slightly.

Mina's face was only a few centimeters away from his, her nose almost touching his chin. Moonlight fell on her long eyelashes, casting a light shadow, and her pink ear tips were particularly eye-catching in the moonlight.

"Nobody's watching us~ Let's go crazy~"

I have what you need~

At the end of the song, the MV camera suddenly zooms out to the villa courtyard under the floor-to-ceiling windows, where hundreds of models with stunning figures are still scattered amidst the bright lights and shadows. Gong Cheng suddenly raises his hand, holding a black remote control in his large palm.

A psychedelic glow enveloped Mina and his handsome features. With a slender finger, he pressed a button on the remote control. In an instant, the psychedelic colors and figures in the villa courtyard blurred into the static screen of an old television set…

The signal kept crackling and disconnecting, and the screen went dark...

On the pitch-black screen, Gong Cheng's slightly hoarse voice uttered the final line of the lyrics...

Everyone thinks you're shy, but I know you're actually pretty crazy!

“Lil' baby~”

“Lil' baby~~”

……

The music video for "Go Crazy" has come to an end.

"Dafa!"

Lim Na-yeon recalled the explicit content of the scene just now; there was no mouth, but there was physical contact.

This level of tolerance is acceptable to fans... Rather than saying the fans are accepting, it's more accurate to say that ONCEs accept Makoto Miyazaki. If it were any other male artist, TWICE would absolutely not have filmed any music videos with him...

Such a thing would never happen, but in her opinion, the ONCEs could accept the physical contact between the male lead and Mina. After all, to be honest, TWICE's current status is really not up to the level of the male lead...

Originally, Lim Na-yeon only wanted to hold hands and hug the male lead in the music video, which she thought was already very bold!
But looking at it now, what a joke!

Have to study it carefully.

"Had a lot of fun filming, right, Mina-chan?"

After watching the music video, everyone went about their own business. Sana Minatozaki sat down next to Mina Mina and asked her a question with a grin, but in a sarcastic tone.

Just then, Chou Tzu-yu overheard this and, while holding [Butter], casually remarked, "Unnie's acting was so good, it looked like it was all genuine emotion... Your acting was amazing~"

After saying this lightly, she smiled at the two of them and strode away with her long legs...

"..."

Mina's face twitched as she listened to their sarcastic remarks, but seeing the maknae run off, she glanced at her friend Sana with a light laugh, "Actually, I didn't feel much during the filming..."

"But your boyfriend is really fun, Makoto is amazing~!"

She pursed her lips and smiled softly, her voice barely audible. Her cheeks flushed pink, and her ambiguous words, coupled with her shy demeanor, immediately made Minatozaki Sana anxious!
The puppy's originally bright eyes suddenly turned into a raging fire!

"What did you do to him?"

"..." Upon hearing this, Mina's upturned lips couldn't hold back any longer. "What did I do to him?" But she still forced a snort. "What did you do?"

"I had fun, so what else could I do?"

"Didn't he ever make you feel good, Sana-chan?" she asked, feigning a puzzled and surprised expression.

Deep down, she felt a wave of helplessness. Did they all think they were easy to bully?! She'd better be damned! A Shiba Inu, huh? A fathead fish, huh? A little tiger, huh? Couldn't you all be a little more like Nayeon unnie, more peaceful?

Mina never expected that the Lego Colosseum set she gave to Makoto would start attacking her before the cute characters even started fighting.

Sana Minatozaki listened to her words with a pounding heart, but quickly calmed down.

Squinting her bright, puppy-dog eyes, she leaned forward, came close to her friend's ear, and, mimicking her soft voice, whispered, "Mina-chan~"

"I suddenly realized that the lyrics from the music video about my little cabbage are really true."

"Everyone thinks you're shy~ but I know you're actually crazy~" This lyric sounds straightforward, romantic, and passionate, but... isn't it just a bit of a repressed flirt?

As for whether it was enjoyable or not?

Hehe, Minatozaki Sana and Mina distanced themselves, and she glanced at Mina's small figure. Still feeling good?

You won't faint?

That's an outrageous claim! It's a fake!
“…Heh…” Mina sneered through her teeth and clenched her fist!
Have you grown a brain yet?

……

That evening, Sana Minatozaki rushed to find Makoto Miyamoto. She was not as calm as she was in front of Mina. She asked about Mina with a fierce and aggrieved tone.

"..."

After some explanation, seeing that the Shiba Inu girl had calmed down, Gong Cheng chose the oldest method: a single shot to solve all her problems!

Besides, there's really nothing between him and Mina; at most, it's just some one-sided nude video chat!
However, he was the one who was naked, but he didn't cross his own line. The little penguin was particularly wicked! He used the women to threaten him! He had no choice but to be "forced into prostitution" by the little penguin…

……

After the Shiba Inu woman tiptoed away.

Gong Cheng called Mina directly, "Haki, what did you say to Sana-chan?"

"..."

……

The next day...

At Incheon International Airport, Gong Cheng boarded a flight bound for Japan, and during the flight...

On Tuesday, the Billboard charts were updated again.
