Chapter 66 I want to introduce you to my friends In fact, given Jin Shiming's current situation, it is not impossible for him to participate in music shows. Generally speaking, the performances on music shows are divided into two forms: live and pre-recorded. Live broadcast, also known as live broadcast, is a live broadcast in the popular sense. This form of stage can better reflect the authenticity and instant interactivity of the program. In contrast, the requirements for performers are higher. Once a major mistake occurs in the program and even the director cannot remedy it, it will lead to a serious broadcasting accident. Pre-recording refers to the advance recording of stage performances before the music show is officially broadcast live. The purpose of pre-recording is to ensure the continuity of program broadcasting and present high-quality stage effects. Especially for those stages that require costume changes or have special scenery requirements, pre-recording can be used to play the recorded video directly during the live broadcast to avoid the possibility of accidents.

In recent years, the trend of pre-recording of major music programs has become increasingly obvious. The stage settings are more expensive than each other, and the costumes are more gorgeous than each other. But the singing and dancing skills of idol groups are declining year by year. Some groups don’t even half-open the microphone during their performances and simply lip-sync the whole time. In short, both stage broadcasting methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. However, for Jin Shiming, if he wants to participate in a music show, pre-recording is undoubtedly a better choice. He recorded the stage in advance and played the recorded video when the program was officially broadcast. In this way, he would not have to worry about suddenly falling ill during the live broadcast and being unable to continue the performance, causing the program to be interrupted. Jin Shiming had previously considered whether he could use pre-recording to promote his songs, but after thinking it over again and again, he decided that it would be best not to participate in any TV programs at this stage. Everything has its own way. Today he participated in a music show, and tomorrow he is invited to a variety show. Can he still refuse? Even if Jin Shiming told the truth at that time, the program crew probably wouldn't believe it. They would just think that Jin Shiming looked down on their program and made up a ridiculous excuse to get away with it. On the contrary, Jin Shiming does not participate in any programs, and focuses on fairness and justice. Even if the program crew is a little unhappy, it will not lead to any grudges. At the same time, it can also strengthen the mysterious personality, mobilize the public's curiosity and attention, and purify the cohesion and stickiness of fans. …… IU on the other end of the phone guessed that Jin Shiming would refuse, but she didn't expect Jin Shiming to refuse so decisively without any hesitation. The PD of the "Inkigayo" program team asked her to pass a message to Jin Shiming, which was almost like telling him that as long as Jin Shiming came to SBS TV station to promote his music, the first place would definitely be his. Not only that, in order to take advantage of this wave of popularity, SBS TV station also promised Kim Se Myung to appear in its popular variety show "Running Man", and arranged for MCs such as Yoo Jae Suk to promote Kim Se Myung's new song on the show. With such generous benefits, let alone ordinary artists, even IU can’t help but be tempted! But after listening to it, Jin Shiming showed no emotion at all, like an old monk in meditation. “Oppa, are you really suffering from stage fright as reported online?” IU couldn’t help but complain subconsciously. When recording the sound source and shooting the MV, Jin Shiming's state was very stable from beginning to end, and there was no sign of stage fright or lack of confidence. Based on Jin Shiming's live performance level and the good mentality he usually shows, IU really couldn't believe that he would be afraid of the stage. "It's a similar mental illness. At the moment, I feel that I can't bring the best stage to the audience. I need some time to slowly adjust my state." Jin Shiming replied.

After all, "Spring Love Sakura" is a song he and IU collaborated on. The song cannot be promoted due to his personal reasons. He should at least give IU a reasonable explanation. IU was silent for a few seconds before she spoke carefully, "Oppa, I'm sorry. Is your illness serious?" Jin Shiming's frank confession made her regret that she had spoken without thinking just now. During their earlier collaboration, she could clearly feel Jin Shiming's love and devotion to music, which was in no way inferior to hers. But such a talented person who loves music and has great talent is unable to stand on the stage due to some disease. It is really a painful feeling just to imagine. IU's early experiences have shaped her independent and precocious personality. Privately, there are many black fans who slander her for being hypocritical and lacking humanity. But she is just an underage girl after all. How could she possibly arm herself to the point of being invulnerable? She has a soft heart too! In IU's impression, Kim Se Myung was originally an image of a mature, steady, gentle, talented senior, who was so perfect that it was a little unrealistic. And what Kim Se Myung said just now made him look much "weak" in IU's eyes. He is no longer the perfect predecessor, but a friend who also has flaws and needs others' care and attention! It is this imperfection like the Venus de Milo that makes Kim Semyung's image more flesh and blood, more like a living person, making IU feel closer to him. "Oppa, my birthday is in two months. Can you come to my private party then? I want to introduce you to my friends!" Without waiting for Jin Shiming to say anything, IU, who felt inexplicably sorry for this oppa, spoke first. Thanks to her excellent social skills, she has a wide network of contacts in the circle. But if we can say that there are truly close friends, there are only a handful of them. Now, she has also included Jin Shiming into this small circle and can't wait to introduce him to her relatives and friends. "Well... no problem. Remember to send me an invitation letter when the time comes." Jin Shiming naturally noticed the kindness and closeness that IU took the initiative to exude, and nodded in response. Jin Shiming still has a good impression of this national sister who has received quite polarized comments from the outside world. On the one hand, IU did help him a lot and was very loyal as a friend. On the other hand, IU's ideas and aesthetics in music really appealed to him, and they felt a sense of mutual appreciation. Therefore, no matter what others say, at least Kim Se Myung recognizes IU as his friend! "I will be holding a concert tour in Peninsula in June this year. I will reserve tickets for Oppa. You must come!" Hearing Jin Shiming's affirmative answer, IU continued happily. If possible, she would like to invite Jin Shiming to perform as a guest, but unfortunately he couldn't go on stage. "I'll pay for the ticket to watch the concert of the number one female solo artist on the Peninsula, not to mention there are tickets for the front field," Jin Shiming joked. “Hehe… I don’t deserve the title of the number one female solo, it’s over, it’s over…” IU replied cheerfully. The two chatted for a while before hanging up the phone with a sense of unfulfilled desire. (End of this chapter)
