Chapter 1693 Possibility of G7 Member Combination
Lee Hyun-cheol nodded, but he had a different view. Actually, it was very successful in the first season of the show "Invincible Youth" that year, but the reason why the ratings are not high is that it is the MC problem.
This show is very strange, as if it has not become the MC of the entire show's soul from beginning to end."
Any program cannot be separated from MC's field control and helping the cue guests. In Lee Hyun-chul's view, MC is like a conductor of a conductor of an orchestra. He must be averaged in all aspects, but he cannot cross the line and deliberately pay attention to one person and ignore another group of people.
But in the first season of "The Undefeated Youth", Nancy Shi, a predecessor from a funny artist, was not well-known and only participated in the recording of several episodes.
Later, it turned out to be Kim Shin Young took over the burden and occasionally assisted the village chief, Lo Joo Hyun and the only male member, Kim Tae-woo.
To be honest, when Lee Hyun-chul recalled this show, he always thought that the positioning of these three people was a bit awkward?
Lu Zhuxian's presence inside seems to be dispensable. She is like her father's role like the village chief, but she cannot control the entire audience as skillfully as Yoo Jae-suk and guide the show direction.
Although Kim Shin Young is funny, she didn't seem to see through the core of the show back then. She just kept making fun of the members or giving them some art lessons.
As for Kim Tae-woo, she acts as a lubricant and tool man.
He does physical work, and he does not have the so-called lovelines in ordinary variety shows. His quarrel with Hyuna is a major feature in the show.
What impressed Lee Hyun-cheol the most was that there was a Kara member Nicole who was a guest in the past. At that time, everyone else was making tofu, but Nicole became an invisible person and stood there in awkwardly and didn't know what to do. No one even cared about it. There was no interview, and no cue hers.
It’s a complete feeling of visiting the host at home, but the host is at ease cooking in the kitchen, and the guest feels embarrassed to sit in the living room.
If it was any of Yoo Jae-suk, Jiang Hudong, Kim Ji-dong, or an MC with rich experience in shooting outdoor variety shows, you would definitely not make such a low-level mistake as ignoring the guests.
After all, both Kim Shin Young, Lu Joo Hyun and Kim Tae Woo lack the soul to become the main MC.
The three of them have their own styles and do their own things on the show. When they encounter guest visits, it gives people a "chaotic" feeling.
Fortunately, the guests who went there were also idols. The idols at that time frequently took variety shows, and they would not at least give up their burdens in the current environment where commercial performances are the mainstream.
If the actor who went to the scene was not outstanding at that time, maybe he would encounter a lot of criticism after the broadcast, and the ratings would drop seriously.
To be honest, if another MC with outstanding abilities is added to this show, the ratings will not be so low.
"When "Youth Invincible" was most successful, even in Thailand, RB, and the Korean pop circles in China. Many fans have always felt that it is a great regret for the suspension of such a program.
After many years, these seven people gathered at the same occasion, and it was not the kind of party in private. I don’t know what the reaction will be like in Korea, but overseas..."
Lee Hyun-chul closed his hands and smiled and said, "Besides, no matter which member of the G7 back then is now very popular, and he is considered top-level in his respective combinations.
If these seven people are brought together again, the shooting place will still be placed in Yuzhili, the other party who gives many fans memories, at least the topic will definitely not be bad."
"What about the ratings?" Li Xiankui drank tea. When "Youth Invincible" was broadcast, or in other words, this group of girl groups that debuted at a time, the Internet was not as developed as it is now.
Whether it is a variety show or album sales, there are real data and no fakes can be created.
Like the current rankings and YouTube, things that were unimaginable back then. Besides, who else would there be other than their fans watching this kind of memory-oriented program?”
"Just treat it as satisfying one of my wishes..." Lee Hyun-chul raised his hand to interrupt.
"Besides, the variety shows produced by Empire Entertainment will be more targeted at online platforms in the future.
Compared with platforms like TV stations, the cost of the network is lower, so we build one ourselves.
The program is online, and the fee is adopted as a member, and the fee is set at a suitable price, so you don’t have to worry about losing money. As for the ratings..."
Speaking of this, Lee Hyun-cheol smiled confidently, "When the market of "Invincible Youth" was broadcasted, I am afraid that neither the program team nor the TV station expected that much of the popularity of this program came from overseas.
And this program, which has long been forgotten by Koreans, still exists as a precious memory among many overseas kpop fans. Their existence can fully support this retro program. What we need to care about and pay attention to is the problem of G7 members."
The popularity of the members who participated in this program back then was of course a drastic change.
Do you say that Girls' Generation + Kara + T-ara + 4Mintue and other girls now have huge fan contacts and will no one watch the girl group that reappears in the show that year? Not necessarily, many people have this plot of nostalgia.
Besides, Lee Hyun-cheol did not plan to restart the plan of "Invincible Youth" and continue.
I only do it for one season to satisfy my wishes and take a look at it and the reaction is also good.
Maybe if the restart of "Invincible Youth" is successful, he believes other TV stations will not be moved.
If you count it carefully, there are really too many programs that have been suspended due to various factors, which has become a regret in the hearts of many people.
Even if this regret is temporary, even the nostalgic plot is only temporary.
But it does not mean that it cannot be used. The key is whether you want to do it or not, or whether you are willing to come back or not.
"What are you going to do?"
At some point, Li Xiuman, who was attracted by the content of the conversation between the two, sat over and asked with great interest.
The Girls' Generation contract is now in Empire Entertainment, and Li Xiuman is focused on the company's boy group.
Therefore, no matter how Lee Hyun-chul struggles, in the end, this show is "I or S..M will not suffer any loss at all."
"I believe that the members of G7 have gathered many times in private. This time, T-ara's return to China was able to come to the scene spontaneously, which shows that the sisterhood between them is not to be questioned.
If it is a normal show that wants to invite these people again, the cost of acting alone will be a considerable number."
For ordinary artists, or singers, the pay for acting in variety shows is lower than the pay for a commercial performance.
