Chapter 42 Alas, Capital While waiting for the Melon real-time rankings to refresh, Kim So-jung and Kim Se-jeong read the comments under "Beyond Spring Love and Cherry Blossoms". "Oh my, when will our Jieun release a new song? Why is there no announcement or promotion?" "I came here to comment right after listening to it. It's so good! It's no exaggeration to say that this is the best ballad I've heard in recent years!" "It's obviously about the feeling of being alone without a lover in the spring when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, but why can it be sung so sweetly, making people feel an urgent urge to fall in love?" "I'm Uaena, thank you so much to producer Shiming for giving IU such an excellent collaboration song." "I learned about the talented producer Jin Shiming from "Back in Time", and I didn't expect his singing skills to be so great! To be offensive, it's not that IU sang badly, but Shiming sang too well!" “The overall texture of the song is very gentle, starting with birdsong and guitar, slowly introducing elements such as finger snaps and drum beats, with a brisk and smooth rhythm. The voices of the two singers are relaxed and natural throughout, creating a soothing atmosphere.” "I'm totally going crazy! How can there be such a beautiful bridge? Whenever the song is promoted, I will definitely stay tuned for the broadcast!" “Is the company’s operation dead? Until the official release of the music source, there was no publicity for this song at all? If I hadn’t happened to see the push notification interface, I would have missed this song!” "This song is something that even non-IU fans will like. It has been included in my spring playlist and is on repeat."

"Please recommend this song to your family and friends. It deserves to be heard by more people! I would be sad if someone hasn't heard "Spring Love Sakura"!" "After just one listen, I'm convinced this is the song I'll take to my grave!" "'Spring Love Sakura' is a gift from Shiming and IU to KPOP!" "..." The number of reviews is still relatively small, but they are almost all positive. Even if there are some negative reviews, they are the type that can be easily criticized without any thinking, so Kim So-jeong and Kim Se-jeong directly filtered them out. "It seems that the public's taste is still online. At least most people think this song is very good after listening to it and give it full marks." Kim Sejeong reads the comments tirelessly with a proud expression. She was happy for Jin Shiming from the bottom of her heart. This pearl that had been covered in dust for many years was finally wiped clean of the dust and was shining brightly today. "With the support of IU's fan base, the reputation of this song will surely spread quickly. It depends on where it will land next time the chart is updated." Jin Shaoqing said with a smile. In the past, she would have gotten goosebumps when she saw all the flattery in the song comment section. However, now, she wishes the comments section would be more corny, and it would be best if Jin Shiming could be praised to the sky! However, as she was laughing, Jin Shaoqing suddenly saw a comment that instantly wiped out the smile on her face. "Doesn't anyone think these two are a good match? From today on, I am a fan of Semyung and IU!" Jin Shaoqing pursed his lips, feeling speechless. Just keep shipping CPs, shipping everything will only hurt you! She admitted that IU was a very outstanding senior, but who knew what the national sister was like in private? Besides, IU doesn’t even know Kim Se Myung, and it’s impossible for her to be the one walking side by side with Kim Se Myung! Suddenly, Jin Shaoqing thought of something and turned to look at Jin Sejeong beside him. When Kim Sejeong received a complete set of autographed albums from IU, she was so happy that she was beaming with joy. It can be seen that she is definitely a loyal fan of IU.

This girl won’t defect to the enemy, right? If you think about it carefully, Lee LUDA, Kim Ye-won and others are also fans of IU. Damn! I'm surrounded by Uaena! "Sejeong! Unnie is so good to you, you can't abandon her!" Kim Sojeong hugged Kim Sejeong and said in a coquettish voice as if possessed by a clamp spirit. At the end, he kissed Kim Sejeong on the face several times. Jin Shizheng struggled, but couldn't get rid of the large sloth hanging on her body, so she just let this sister "bully" her. ... An hour later, the Melon list was refreshed. "Ouni, let's start with the real-time list!" Kim Sejeong held her breath and her heartbeat quickened. "First, scroll to the end of the list and scroll up from the bottom!" Jin Shaoqing suggested. Don’t ask why, asking is a sense of ritual. However, as soon as Kim Sejeong clicked into Melon's real-time rankings and before she could scroll to the end of the rankings, the cover poster of "Spring Love Sakura" suddenly appeared at the front of the homepage. "Great! We're actually in the top five of the real-time list!" Kim So-jeong patted Kim Se-jeong's thigh and exclaimed in surprise. Although the sense of ceremony was fragmented, the expectations were not raised, and the emotional preparation was zero. But compared with the result of landing in the inner ring of the real-time list, the process suddenly seems insignificant. "Ouni! It hurts!" Kim Sejeong rubbed her thigh and complained, but there was a bright smile on her face. The unexpectedly good results finally put her at ease. The top ten positions on the real-time chart are basically occupied by BIGBANG's fifth mini album "ALIVE" released at midnight. As a music powerhouse among boy bands, it is not surprising that BIGBANG’s new album dominates the chart. Needless to say, the quality of BIGBANG's album is extremely high, and all six songs except the "into" song are title songs. Among them, "Blue" topped the list, and "Fantastic Baby", "Love Dust" and "Bad Boy" ranked in the top five. The remaining songs "Boning" and "Wings" also ranked in the top ten of the list. Among a series of BIGBANG album covers, the cover poster of "Spring Love Sakura" is particularly eye-catching. …… A few hours later, on the Melon real-time chart, "Spring Love Sakura" climbed to the second position for the first time, just behind "Blue". Moreover, judging from the hourly curve chart, the trend of "Haru Ai Sakura" is even more explosive than that of "Blue". This couldn't help but make the VIPs who were paying attention to the list a little confused. The Oppas finally made a comeback, and the album was of such high quality. They couldn't just watch someone snatch away the album that was about to be theirs, right? Immediately, under the joint command of the fan leaders, the majority of VIPs began to work harder to increase the number of followers and brush the charts. At the same time, there is no shortage of radical VIPs who began their habitual pulling down and smearing. "After listening to the song "Spring Love Sakura" which was praised as a divine song, I felt that it was just average, without any depth at all, and it was far inferior to BIGBANG's "Blue". "What little-known singer thinks that he can challenge our oppas just by hooking up with IU?"

"To say that a song has not been inflated to buy its ranking is definitely the funniest joke of the year!" “kkk~~~ Those who understand will understand. You can’t wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep.” "Alas, capital! Alas, politics!" "Boycott Jin Shiming, boycott "Spring Love Sakura", Chinese singers get out of the Peninsula music scene!" "You don't support BIGBANG, but support foreign singers. What's the difference between that and being a traitor? If a Chinese person wins the Melon Daily Championship, won't you feel ashamed?" "Shit! Who gave you the courage to come back on the same day as BIGBANG and treat us VIPs as dead?" "Is there anyone who would like to go to Qingtai with me to petition?" (End of this chapter)
