At the beginning of the story, I think I should start with the passage "a long time ago". For me, who was only fifteen years old, five years ago was indeed a long, long time ago, a third of my life ago. A long time ago, in Pyongyang, North Korea, a fifteen-year-old boy said goodbye to the city where he had lived all his life. He resolutely packed his luggage and said goodbye to his family of eight sisters who loved him and a pair of parents who also doted on him. Get on the train to Seoul. His family members all cried when they took him to the train station. The boy heard their cries, but he did not dare to look back. Because he was afraid that the moment he looked back, he would be ruthless and give up this opportunity. He was also afraid that his family would see his tears. In this way, in order to realize his dream, the boy wearing a shabby and shabby coat left his hometown alone at the age of fifteen and went to a prosperous city that he had never even seen to find his place to stay. .
Finally, the train arrived at the station. The boy got off the train. He looked at Seoul's gorgeous high-rise buildings, noisy streets, and the night lit by neon lights... so many things he had never seen before rushed toward him like waves, and his heart couldn't bear the load at all. Does he really want to find a place for himself in this city that is as proud and gorgeous as a queen? The boy hesitated, his confidence in himself shaken.
However, the ideal he has always held in his heart made him certain that if he just went home like this, he would never be able to forgive his cowardice. So, without any support at all, the boy found a pitifully small apartment for himself and lived there.
When S.M. Entertainment, South Korea's largest music entertainment company, held its second singing competition, the boy participated. The hall was crowded with young people who, like the boys, wanted to use this competition to be hired by the company to become tomorrow's stars. They all dressed themselves up carefully, wearing the most popular clothes, wearing high-quality headphones on their ears to listen to the songs to be sung during the interview, and looked at the other contestants with cold eyes. The boy looked at his oversized dark gray top and trousers, and felt as if he had already lost half of them.
He is the twelfth contestant. Entering the interview hall, there were five stern-faced referees sitting inside. He was at a loss until the one in the middle asked him to get ready to sing.
Then he moved them with his voice. That voice was the clearest, gentlest, and most powerful voice anyone had ever heard. Listening to it, I feel unspeakable sadness in my heart. But at the same time, I still hope that I can listen to him singing forever, and be immersed in his singing forever and ever. But even so, at first listen, his voice was still too soft and fragile.
So the reason why the boy won the game in the end was because he had an alluring face. On that face, which is not stained by any trace of glamour, but is still refined and smooth, there are facial features that are even more delicate than those of a girl. The watery eyes are large and soft, and the dark gray pupils are shyly half-covered by long straight eyelashes. The lips are small and full, and the pink color highlights the pale skin on the face. Everyone says that this face was born for entertainment.
He was admitted by the company unintentionally and signed a seven-year cooperation contract: he worked as an apprentice for the first two years, paid his own tuition to take music and dance classes, and officially became an artist in the next five years. The boy, who was getting closer to his dream, quickly signed the contract. Although he knew that he would have a hard time in the next two years, he could never give up for his ideal.
So, he began to live a life that was not human for two years. Because he knew that his family was not wealthy to begin with, he never reached out to ask for another penny from his family. Working two or three casual jobs every day. While everyone was still asleep, he fetched newspapers from the printing factory that were almost as heavy as his own body, and rode a rotten old bicycle to deliver newspapers from house to house. At noon, I went to a nearby construction site to do temporary hard labor. Her breathtakingly beautiful face was covered by dust and cement, and her soft voice was suppressed because she didn't dare to offend other construction workers. After taking music lessons in the afternoon, in order to save money on the bus, I would rather walk three hours to work as a waiter in a restaurant. He silently worked on the work at hand, silently bearing the burden that a fifteen-year-old boy should not bear, and silently praying for the day in two years when he would be able to walk out of the dark tunnel and let the light surround him.
The boy tried his best, but still couldn't live a life with three meals of food and clothing. Every time I get my salary, the first thing I do is pay my tuition. It doesn't matter even if the money left is not enough for food and clothing
Finally one day, the boy found that he had no money to buy anything to eat. He had been hungry for two days, and his exhausted body should not have been able to work hard anymore. But in order to be able to pay his tuition on time every month, he still worked part-time regardless of rain or shine. That night at the restaurant, the boy picked up more than half of the noodle soup left by a customer. The soup was still lukewarm. He was so hungry that even the hand holding the bowl was shaking. Don't think about it anymore. The boy picked up the spoon and drank up the remaining noodle soup in one mouthful after another.
Why is the noodle soup getting saltier and saltier? The boy wondered. Then he found that his tears had fallen into the bowl without his knowledge.
A fifteen-year-old child should not have to endure this, but he did.
Later, the boy fell ill.
He had a fever, and for three days in a row he could only lie in the apartment, which was too small to hold a few clothes, and he couldn't even sleep. The tuition fee has just been paid, but the three-day work allowance is less. The boy once again dragged his hungry and weak body three hours away to work in a restaurant.
On the way back, he saw a blood station. While hesitating, his stomach began to throb unsatisfactorily. Once again, the boy did something he thought he shouldn't do. He walked into the blood bank. An hour later, holding the few hard-earned banknotes tightly in his hands, he went to the food store to buy the cheapest biscuits to satisfy his hunger despite his heavy dizziness and bloodless lips.
Finally, two years of hard and unbearable days have passed. The boy is selected to join a five-member bel canto dance group. The company announced that this will be the strongest group. After unanimous approval from all the music teachers in the company, although these five people have very different voices and sounds, they will definitely work together seamlessly. Therefore, the boy was lucky enough to join a group that the company attached great importance to, and was spared the bad luck of being refrigerated. At the same time, as the eldest, he also gained four younger brothers who cared about him very much.
When they released their first single, only one album containing two songs topped the various music charts in South Korea. This also broke the Korean music industry that there was no Korean single. Qu’s market. The boy finally tasted the sweetness of success. Seeing the increasing number of letters from fans every day, he felt that the two years of hardship were all worth it.
However, good things are always so short-lived and so far away for boys. During their first autograph session, none of the fans who got the chance to enter were his fans. The boy looked at the long queue in front of the other three people in the group, and his heart felt as if he had been struck by a dull blow. There was no one in front of him. With great difficulty, the staff pulled a few fans in front of him in order to prevent the atmosphere from being too embarrassing. Just when the boy tried his best to hide the sadness in his heart and greeted the fans by their names affectionately, the girl's arrogant and disdainful words "I was forced to come here, I don't like you at all" broke his heart again. But the boy didn't cry. He would rather bite his lip than shed a single tear in front of anyone, even in front of himself.
The boy didn’t know why the fans disliked him so much. He didn't know that his group of fans were outside the meeting hall, as heartbroken as him...
Later, he found out on the company's official website that everyone didn't like him, not because he had done anything wrong. Not because of anything, but because he was so beautiful that all the girls hated him. A feeble forced smile raised the corners of the boy's mouth. It turns out that the bargaining chip that made him better than others in entering the entertainment industry, this young and handsome face, is the reason why everyone hates him.
The boy did not give up. He still faces every interview with a smile every day, hoping that everyone will be attracted by his human side and his voice. But the harder he tried, the greater the burden on his heart became. There were frequent small glitches in the performance. This made him even more panicked. He was afraid that people would feel even more disgusted with him. As a result, the boy gradually stopped talking and laughing in front of the camera. He tightened his emotions every day and deliberately controlled his words and deeds very strictly.
He did not expect that being silent in front of the camera would lead to dissatisfaction from fans who said he was pretending to be cool, and would lead to the company's decision to remove him from the group. The boy was really scared. He didn't want to leave the place that was already a second family to him. But there was nothing he could do. To put it bluntly, the artist is just a puppet to make money for the company. If the audience gets tired of watching this puppet, the company must replace it with a puppet that the audience likes more, Bojun Yixiao.
But in the end, he was not transferred. The boy discovered that his fans had been protesting on the street in front of the company for several days and nights for him. The reason is to ask the company to keep him in the group. It turned out that the youngest member of the group, the little brother he had always doted on and cherished, despite the obstruction of his manager, cried and announced to everyone in front of the camera that if the company transferred his brother, he would rather break the contract and go back to be an ordinary person. high school student... The boy was moved. He knew that everyone in this group was completely passionate about singing. The youngest brother, like him, also went through a lot before becoming a singer.
As a result, the boy cherished everything he had even more. He practices very hard in order to repay the kindness his fans have shown him. He wants to present the best to his fans. During the concert, the boy always glanced back and forth in the audience. The music teacher in the company criticized him and said that if he did this, he would not be affectionate at all, and it would be like making a joke. The boy smiled and nodded, but his eyes still wandered around the next time he sang. The boy said that artists would stare at one spot when singing for the sake of effect, but he couldn't because he wanted to see each fan's face clearly. Therefore, even if the effect of the captured image will not be good, he will still do it.
Two years have passed. Within two years, the boy broke his music teacher's notion that his voice was too soft and delicate with a song called "The Way U Are." He naturally changed his gentle and neutral voice into a brutal and domineering roar, which won him the hearts of more fans. The boy smiled stupidly.
Later, the boy collapsed during a dance practice class. He thought that falling down was a common thing, but he couldn't stand up.
The pain in his knee was so severe that he could only shrink down and tremble on the ground holding his injured right knee. The captain didn't bother to say anything, picked him up and ran to the nearest hospital for him to receive treatment. The moment he was pushed into the emergency room, the boy saw four familiar figures breathing heavily and looking at him worriedly outside the open door.
The doctor said that the boy's right knee suffered a comminuted rupture and needed surgery as soon as possible. This is not a minor surgery and requires a long period of rest. But the boy refused. The day after he had the surgery, he and other members went to the Olympic Stadium in Seoul and held their fan meeting as scheduled. Before the meeting, the captain carefully supported him from the van to the backstage of the stadium, refusing to leave even half a step for fear that he would suddenly get pain. At the meeting, the youngest brother was asked what kind of New Year gift he would like to receive next year. And his answer was that he hoped his brother's leg would get better soon...
The boy never liked to shed tears. But this time he felt tears welling up in his eyes. He buried his head and tried not to shed tears. Later he looked up and saw the fans crying for him. The boy sadly picked up the microphone and said to everyone, "Actually, I don't feel any pain at all. It really doesn't hurt at all... Everyone, please don't cry for me, but be like me. Let's face each other with a smile. Okay." ?” the boy lied to his fans for the first time. How could it be possible that the leg that had just undergone surgery, less than twenty-four hours ago, was not in pain? But he still endured the pain with strength and smiled in front of 50,000 fans.
Later, the boy’s foot injury finally healed. He happily gathered with friends to celebrate. On his way home, he was arrested. The reason is, drunk driving. When the captain picked him up at the police station, he said nothing, but the boy knew that his behavior must have disappointed him.
The boy was kept in cold storage by the company for two weeks. The boy knew that this punishment was already very lenient. He knew that it must be the members and fans who interceded for him so that he would not be sealed in an inconspicuous corner of the company forever. For this reason, he resolutely insisted on admitting his mistake to everyone at the next fan meeting, although an artist is not obliged to do so.
That time was the first time the boy cried in front of fans.
A boy, a boy who was so strong that he ignored the pain of having his knees just peeled off, smiled and persuaded fans not to cry for his injuries, and did not shed a single tear during the whole process, actually because He was moved to tears after hearing a few words that fans no longer blamed him. My heart is broken for him.
After that incident, the boy finally gained everyone's recognition. Everyone finally discovered that the boy's advantage was not only his stunning appearance. It turns out that his singing voice is so varied, so sentimental and soft; it turns out that he is a man who has the courage to admit his mistakes. It turns out that underneath his stubbornness and unwillingness to shed tears, he is actually such a person who can be moved. The fans’ words, “We forgive you,” had such a powerful impact on him. Perhaps, in these five short words, the boy found everyone's acceptance and tolerance for him.
This boy is Kim Jaejoong of TVXQ, a popular Korean boy group. The stage name given to him by the company is "Heroes in the Middle". The boy always reminds himself when he wants to cry that he cannot cry. Because he is a hero; a hero cannot cry. A hero will always fight against difficulties to the end; then, overcome it.
A fan of TVXQ said that when she first saw Jaejoong, she felt that his fragile appearance like a crystal doll was not suitable for the grand name "Hero". It wasn't until I got to know all about him that I realized that underneath his gentle and delicate appearance, there was a heroic spirit. The hero is in the heart... The hero is in the heart... Only then did he suddenly realize that the name given to him by S.M. turned out to be so appropriate.
And I have the same understanding as her. After so much, the boy has grown up. He no longer had the childish arrogance when he first debuted, but now has a maturity and vicissitudes that people will remember. Just that gentle voice can still move me every time and make me want to be immersed in his singing forever. And that gentle and beautiful smile always makes people feel that he is an angel who has fallen into the world. To be able to touch a person so much, I think the hero is in the middle, he really succeeded.
Let us follow the hero’s bravery and unyielding spirit and work hard together.
There are many more....
Go and have a look....
