Peninsula: Starting with Hijacking Yoona

55. Multiple reactions: "Please continue reading, brothers!"

Sure enough, it wasn't long before CJ and MBC staff responsible for public opinion monitoring noticed the unusual activity of the forum's rankings being flooded.

Both sides contacted Minister Park and Na Yong-ho almost simultaneously.

The two answered the phone one after the other, and the joy on their faces gradually froze.

While listening to the public opinion report on the other end of the phone, Minister Park held the mouse in his right hand and clicked on the popular comment that had been getting likes likes. His eyes fell on the fan comments and Lee Kyung-sung's Chinese reply.

Unlike Minister Park, who had a more pronounced smile, Luo Yonghao's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, his gaze drifting lightly to Lee Kyung-sung, his eyes filled with helplessness.

Li Jingcheng gave an awkward twitch of his lips, then looked at the barrage of comments popping up on his phone, which was starting to get hot in his hand. He decisively turned it off.

Having spent over a decade in his past life scrolling through short videos, reading online novels, and browsing forums, the process of commenting, interacting, liking, and spamming was ingrained in his DNA. He hadn't even realized he was already a top influencer who debuted at ChinaJoy in his second life. Although he was a newcomer with no work to his name now, a few casual replies he posted would instantly garner tens of thousands of likes and thousands of comments. He should be considered a rising star in terms of online traffic, right?

Looking at Li Jingcheng's slightly embarrassed face, Luo Yonghao sighed inwardly. In the end, he couldn't blame him. He had only verbally reminded him about account management before, but hadn't revoked the operating privileges in time. He himself had also made a mistake.

Fortunately, after he and Minister Park read Lee Kyung-sung's reply, although it wasn't as comprehensive as the official statement, the casual and genuine tone of his response immediately confirmed to netizens that it was indeed Lee himself who had spoken out.

The reply didn't touch on anything inappropriate, and this unadorned response actually boosted her public image and fan favorability to the peak, resulting in a very positive public opinion.

To Minister Park's further delight, he began to praise her, "I didn't expect Kyung Sung to be fluent in Chinese, Japanese, and English?"

"Yes, I know a little bit about both," Li Jingcheng nodded in reply.

Luo Yonghao already knew about this, so it wasn't surprising. He just looked at him with a hint of schadenfreude, saying, "From now on, you're probably not going to have a moment of peace."

Li Jingcheng frowned slightly, a bad premonition rising in his heart.

Minister Park suddenly burst into laughter, "Your statement, 'Communication between China, South Korea, Japan, and the UK is stress-free; feel free to comment, I can understand it all,' has completely gone viral! It's a good thing you put the English last, otherwise, overseas public opinion could have pushed you into the eye of the storm in the short term, and you wouldn't have been able to calm down at all."

Lee Kyung-sung didn't understand at first; weren't the Chinese, Japanese, and Korean pronunciations all easy to pronounce? Suddenly, he seemed to realize something—Koreans are very particular about the order of these words.

He didn't know how to respond, so he gave a helpless, agreeable smile.

Luo Yonghao had obviously seen it too, and couldn't hold back any longer. He quickly stepped forward and said, "Log out of the account first, and hand it over to the team for professional management. We'll arrange an official announcement soon to stabilize things. Many overseas partners have already contacted Team Leader Jin to discuss your overseas trip, so be prepared."

He secretly rejoiced that Kim Min-joo hadn't gotten angry or questioned him. If things had blown up and affected Lee Kyung-sung's image, he, as his manager, would have suffered as well.

Li Jingcheng didn't object. His phone was no longer lagging much, so he decided to leave one last post on his account.

Now it's Oppa himself, but it won't be anymore...

Luo Yonghao watched from the sidelines, weighing the pros and cons in his mind. He felt that this wouldn't have much of an impact, and since they were the ones operating the account, any problems wouldn't be blamed on Jing Cheng.

After logging out, he handed the task over to Luo Yonghao. While maintaining contact with his colleagues at the actors' headquarters, he guided them through logging into their accounts. Only then did he secretly breathe a sigh of relief and instructed them, "You can use a secondary account to browse the forum privately, but don't reveal your identity. If you really want to respond to your fans, just let me know, and we'll use your verified account to help you word the message and post it."

Li Jingcheng nodded slightly, no longer in the mood to check his phone for comments.

SM Entertainment, practice room.

Bae Joo-hyun had just finished a round of intense dance training, and sweat was streaming down her face.

She picked up her phone, and on the screen was a photo of Lee Kyung-sung and Han Ga-in in their costume fittings. The sudden debut and the sweetness of their honeymoon period seemed to have been affected. She sat there in a daze, feeling depressed. But when she thought that Han Ga-in was over 30 and that the two of them were close in private and had done everything they could, her heart softened again. She felt both the shyness of a young girl and an unconcealable love and longing.

She hesitated for a while, wanting to offer sincere congratulations but also wanting to build closer relationships. After a moment of internal struggle, she opened her photo album, selected her most confident selfie, and attached it to the private message. She then typed out the text and sent it.

"Oppa, I saw that your new drama was officially announced and the response has been great. I'm really happy for you~ Please take good care of yourself while filming and don't overwork yourself."

After sending the message, her cheeks flushed slightly. She pressed her phone to her chest, her heart pounding, and quietly waited for his reply.

Lim Yoona was resting on the set of the drama "Love Rain". She was leaning back in her chair and taking a nap when she suddenly heard a series of exclamations and discussions from the staff and actors around her. It seemed that she heard Lee Kyung-sung, the official announcement of the new drama, and that he himself had suddenly appeared on the forum to reply to fans.

A thought struck her, and she immediately raised her hand and beckoned her assistant to hand her her phone.

Unlocking the trending topics, I saw MBC release Lee Kyung-sung's costume photos and audition footage, as well as that multilingual reply that went viral online.

Im Yoona's eyes were filled with amazement and envy. This girl speaks four languages ​​and her acting is so good; her future is truly unpredictable.

She tapped her fingertips lightly on the screen, hesitated for a moment, and then sent the message.

"Jingcheng, congratulations on the successful announcement of the male lead for 'The Moon Embracing the Sun'! The costume and styling are particularly stunning, and the response from the entire internet is very positive. We are really looking forward to your new work. Good luck with your filming."

Then she thought of her own film crew and became distressed.

Lee Hyeri hasn't joined a film or television production yet. It's currently a break from her girl group activities, and after that incident, she stopped working part-time and is relaxing in her dorm. But she's not picking her toes, though.

When she saw the trending topic about Li Jingcheng becoming an internet sensation and personally responding to fans in multiple languages, her eyes were filled with amazement and admiration. His rise to fame was simply unbelievable; she had truly watched him transform from an ordinary person into a national heartthrob overnight.

Her teammates had already seen the trending topic and were all surrounding Lee Hyeri, refusing to let it go. They all knew that she had Lee Kyung-sung's contact information and were crowding around her with their phones to make a fuss.

"Hyeri, don't you have Kyungsung oppa's contact information? Hurry up and ask him out!"

"Yeah, yeah, they helped you before, you should at least thank them properly!"

"Let's meet up for a meal, and take a picture together while we're at it. We can benefit from it too!"

The group chatted amongst themselves, constantly urging each other on.

On the surface, Li Huili seemed to let it go in one ear and out the other, smiling foolishly, but inwardly she rolled her eyes.

You're inviting me out for dinner? It's hard to say whether it'll be a proper meal or if you guys will end up eating me alive.

Besides, if she really wanted to treat everyone to a meal to express her gratitude, it should be a private invitation between her and these girls who were just there to join in the fun.

While she was looking down and typing rapidly on her phone to send a congratulatory text message to Lee Kyung-sung, she casually brushed off her teammates, "You guys are overthinking it. Kyung-sung oppa just officially announced his role as the male lead in a big production, and his schedule is packed. How could he have time to come out to eat with us?"

Kim Ah-young, meanwhile, was glancing at Lee Hye-ri's fingers tapping on the screen out of the corner of her eye, seemingly lost in thought.

Kim Jisoo, who is still a trainee in YG's acting department, has not officially transitioned into an idol and focuses on learning acting skills and physical training every day.

During my break, I also saw Li Jingcheng's official announcement of his role as the male lead in a period drama and his personal replies to fans on the forum. Looking at his cool and outstanding period drama appearance and his composed and fluent manner of speaking multiple languages, I was filled with admiration and amazement.

She was genuinely happy for Li Jingcheng, and also felt a bit of fangirl admiration, thinking he was dazzling and amazing.

Kim Jisoo couldn't resist any longer. Now that they had a topic to discuss without seeming intrusive, she revised her words, finally nodding in satisfaction.

"Kyung Sung oppa, congratulations on landing the male lead role in 'The Moon Embracing the Sun'! Your costume fitting and audition footage were outstanding, I'm so happy for you. I wish you all the best in filming and a bright future."

She sent the message, looking at her first message with immense anticipation for a reply.
