Peninsula 2017: Is the system living in the past?

"They're here."

Samseong-dong, Black Swan Restaurant.

Park Hyomin, Kim Tae-yeon, and Lee Soon-kyu were discussing whether they should go somewhere to stroll around after they finished eating.

Otherwise, all that effort for this outfit and makeup would be for nothing!

Judging that it was about time, she looked up at the entrance to the hall.

I spotted them immediately: Jiang Xingchen and Park Jiyeon walking in side by side from outside.

Then I offered a reminder.

Reminded by her, the two of them suddenly looked up at the restaurant entrance.

look.

The focus is mainly on the man walking next to Park Ji-yeon, namely Jiang Xingchen.

Just one glance.

Kim Tae-yeon then confirmed the other party's identity.

It was the strange man I met downstairs at the company last night.

Park Jiyeon also saw the two of them, a big smile appeared on her face, then she turned her head and said something to Jiang Xingchen before quickening her pace.

The arrival of the two also attracted the attention of other guests in the restaurant.

Without him.

These days.

Park Jiyeon's Challenge video uploaded online has remained incredibly popular.

Many dance enthusiasts analyze the movements in the video frame by frame.

Then...upload the copied version.

She even tagged Park Ji-yeon online to rate her.

Who would have thought that it was just a casual mention, with no expectation that the person in question would even look at it.

But she still looked at it.

They also provided very detailed instructions on the key points of the movements.

as well as.

The core idea behind that phrase, "I'm the coolest person," is to stomp on the floor.

It immediately ignited a frenzy.

More and more people are joining this Challenge craze.

Among them are many popular celebrities.

At this time, Park Jiyeon announced that she would upload a challenge video with Park Hyomin in a couple of days.

In the eyes of media professionals, this was simply a very effective marketing campaign.

This is why everyone is paying attention to her.

At the same time, she was also curious about the identity of Jiang Xingchen, who was walking beside her.

Young and handsome, but I don't have any impression of him, so he's probably not in the entertainment industry.

Another thing is that his temperament is also somewhat special.

Boy friend?

This idea popped into many people's minds.

Especially after seeing her lead Jiang Xingchen toward Park Hyomin, Kim Tae-yeon, and others.

It's worth noting that Girls' Generation and T-ara are best friends.

Very few men are allowed to meet them alone.

"Kim Tae-yeon-xi, Lee... Sunny-xi, Annye Hassayo, nice to meet you, Kang Sung-jin Yimida."

Upon reaching the dining table, Jiang Xingchen did not rush to sit down, but instead politely greeted Kim Tae-yeon and Kim Tae-yeon.

However, he almost misspoke and called out Lee Soon-kyu's full name.

Fortunately, he managed to change his mind before the words were even out of his mouth.

Upon noticing this, Lee Soon-kyu beamed with joy.

This man is nice; he's quite considerate!

"Designer Kang, Kim Tae-yeon/Sunny Yimida, Annye Hassayo."

The two of them stood up and responded politely.

After a brief introduction, the group sat down.

It's worth noting that Lee Soon-kyu noticed that Park Ji-yeon didn't sit down immediately when Kang Sung-chen greeted them, but waited until now.

He glanced at the two of them without making a sound.

Then pick up the menu that has already been ordered from the table and hand it to them.

"We've ordered a few things, Designer Jiang, do you see if there's anything you'd like to eat?"

"Kenchana, I'm not picky about food."

Jiang Xingchen smiled and took the menu, quickly glanced at it, and then put it aside. "This is enough. It would be a waste to order too much later."

"Let's leave it at that for now, we can add more if needed."

Seeing that he didn't seem to have any particular idea, Lee Soon-kyu didn't press the issue and gestured to the waiter that the dishes could be served at the normal pace.

After arranging all that, she looked at him curiously for a second.

Finally, his gaze fell on Kim Tae-yeon beside him.

I made no attempt to hide my curiosity about what happened downstairs at the company last night.

He asked directly, "Designer, are you perhaps a fan of Taeyeon?"

"I heard from Hyomin that you made a special trip to our company building yesterday and even called to ask to get to know us."

"It wasn't on purpose that I went there," Jiang Xingchen waved her hand, correcting Li Shungui's statement. "After finishing my work, I was just wandering around and happened to pass by there. I went in for a coffee and was about to leave when I saw Kim Tae-yeon."

He's a fan.

And coincidentally, he's also someone in the industry.

And coincidentally, the person I knew was an acquaintance.

So I thought I'd make a phone call and see if we could get to know each other.

"Then why did you just leave?"

Kim Tae-yeon was also a little curious about his sudden departure.

"Look, I asked them."

Jiang Xingchen glanced at Park Jiyeon and Park Hyomin, "They were in the practice room yesterday afternoon. I thought they went back after practice, but I didn't expect them to come straight to my place."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Lee Soon-kyu revealed a wicked smile.

She looked at Park Hyomin and Park Jiyeon with a mischievous grin, "I didn't realize you two held such a high place in the designer's heart!"

"How could you just walk away when your idol was right in front of you!"

That's all.

It seems that they feel there is absolutely no problem with this statement.

He chuckled a few more times.

However, she did know her limits.

Although he was teasing the group, he didn't steer the conversation toward Jiang Xingchen, whom he had just met.

"The main reason is that he feels guilty about it."

Park Jiyeon shook her head, not quite agreeing with Lee Soon-kyu's statement. "My unnie and I went back to wait for him after practice, but instead, he went off to chase after celebrities!"

"You're right... It's a good thing we even prepared dinner for him."

"hold head high?"

At this point, Jiang Xingchen was taken aback.

Looking at Park Hyomin's serious face, he began to recall what had happened after returning to EPOCH last night.

It seems like... I haven't eaten anything!

"I forgot."

Park Hyo-min turned her head to look elsewhere.

They tried to get away with it.

But as she turned back, she met Lee Soon-kyu's probing gaze.

I just felt something was off.

Fortunately, this incredibly clever friend didn't say anything.

While we were chatting, the restaurant started serving the dishes.

...

...

More than an hour later.

The simple meal came to an end.

Knowing he was there, it wasn't very convenient for the women to chat.

So after everyone put down their chopsticks and chatted for a few more minutes, Jiang Xingchen took the initiative to say goodbye.

Of course, I didn't forget to leave my contact information before leaving.

After all, he still has the identity of a designer.

Kim Tae-yeon and Lee Soon-kyu didn't refuse and readily added each other as friends on KakaoTalk, and also followed each other on Instagram.

Just then, Park Jiyeon received a message from Lee Ji-eun, who had asked to meet her, so she decided to go along with her.

Now, watching the two figures walk away.

Lee Soon-kyu asked Kim Tae-yeon and Park Hyo-min, and also asked herself, "Why do I get the feeling that Ji-yeon's attitude towards this designer Kang isn't quite right?"

"I hope she doesn't end up ruining herself!"

"What's the difference?"

Kim Tae-yeon was already used to her gossipy nature and casually chimed in.

Then, I glanced at the time.

It was still early before bedtime, so I asked if she had decided where she wanted to go for a stroll.

"Mora...why don't you come to my place for a drink?"

"Let's just wander around nearby. It's been a while since we've been to Samseong-dong, hasn't it?"

"Okay, then let's find a place to have a drink before going back."

"ah..."

"I was just kidding!"
