*Chapter 87- Not Conceited At All

Finding the Right Words

*From the SMTown Youtube channel: February 9, 2015*

*Han Geng's "Hero" plays in the background as Mel rolls out a huge piece of white paper, looks at her calligraphy brush, and then throws it away. She smiles down at the paper, then, as if making a sudden decision, sticks her foot in the paint and begins swirling it around the paper, as if dancing.

In the SM Entertainment building's foyer, messing with sound. She takes the camera and points it at Heechul, who waves and bows. She pushes him out of the camera angle, and then the scene changes again. She's in the center of the foyer, pumping her arms through the air. Left, right, left, left-- right, left, right, right-- wave, then whirl, to the beat of the music. Henry comes through, giving her a weird look. You can see her explaining the dance to him, showing him the movements. He shrugs, trying it for himself. More and more people come in, and each time, they add to the ones dancing in the video.

In the Super Junior dorm, with all thirteen members. The only ones absent from the family are Han Geng and Kibum. All of the boys are using fabric paint to paint letters and Chinese characters onto saphhire blue t-shirts. Eunhyuk holds his up, proudly, right before Kyuhyun throws another shirt over his head and pushes him to the ground. Meanwhile, Mel and Henry use the paint to try to smear each other's faces.

Back in the foyer, with Henry, Zhou Mi, Amber, Zhang Liyin, Victoria, Kris, Tao, and Xiumin. They all try the dance, then switch positions, the ones in the back stepping forward while the others step back, all the while still moving their arms. They do this again, sideways, then in a triangular shape. They clap together, laughing for their success, and then the scene changes back to Mel, painting characters onto a white paper.

Then to chatting with the SuJu members. Suddenly they all look up, and hold up pieces of paper that, together, written in Chinese characters, English words, and Korean Hangeul, read "We all hope you the best, Han Geng! Happy birthday!"

Suddenly, in the final refrain, the foyer is filled with artists, all wearing the sapphire blue shirts the SuJu members were making earlier in the video, dancing together. Mel is in the front, her cheeks red, but as happy as can be. The camera angle changes, looking down at the group as a whole. A flashmob, really, it changes shape with only a few steps. Mel steps backward, and all of the Super Junior members are in front. They step into a semi-circle to let Eunhyuk and Donghae do a special duo dance off, then kick them out, all of the different groups getting a chance to step forward with the shifting of the mob. Mel and Heechul disappear, coming back with the large calligraphy drawing Mel had made, holding it proudly. It reads "Stars in the night sky can be seen from any part of the sky," and then, in the final few beats, all of the artists face backwards, so the backs of their shirts can be read together. "Happy Birthday, Han Geng! From all of us here in SM, wishing you the best. <3"


The music ends and they all clap and cheer together, some making hearts at the camera, and a few attempting to give the camera a "group hug". Finally, the video ends, with a picture of Henry and Kyuhyun wrapping Mel up in the banner.*

 

*On the "Han Geng" tag on Tumblr*

OMFG They seriously did this?! It's an SM flashmob!

Well, it was on the SMTown Youtube page, so...

Dude, this is the awesomest birthday present ever. Whose idea was this?

Queen Be!

 Queen Be as in ELF Queen! I wonder if Han Geng has seen this?

I don't know... hey, is anybody on here Chinese? Can we post this to some Chinese social networking sites?

I love the part at the end where they put the banner she worked so hard on over her head. XD

Did she edit this herself?

She's just trying to get more attention. You're all giving it right to her.

Seriously? I swear some people are just being mean to her for the sake of being mean. This is a present for Han Geng! Why can't we just support her because she does something for our boys?! Thank you, Queen Be!

*Later*

Huh? What happened to the video? It was on Youtube this morning...

It just got deleted. I wonder what happened?

I have it saved on my computer, you guys. Don't worry. ;)

That video will live on, in my heart!

What if we make our own video like this? Like, a Gengfan flashmob?!

Dude, that would be so cool! Count me in!

 

*Mel's Facebook*

Already sent my birthday wishes to a certain awesome Chinese man. Not that many of my family members would know...

Ali- The video's gone...

Mel- I kind of expected that to happen...

Em- o.O

Jacklyn- You didn't...

Mel- Shhh, they're watching my Twitter.

Eliz- Ours too.

Mel- ????? But you're not...

Ali- Actually, surprise! We've been recruited by an entertainment company. 

Mel- Chincha?! Omo, that's amazing! You guys, maybe we can do a collaberation together!

Em- But what would we sing? All of our songs have been covers. XD

Mel- You can cover one of my songs. :P

Eliz- That's not conceited at all. -.-

Mel- <3

Jacklyn- But seriously, what would we sing?

Mel- I'm leaving that up to you. I have to go film. See ya!

Eliz- Bye, Melly. By the way, I saw your first two episodes of "Two Lands, One People". Good job, Melly. We're so proud of you.

 

*Later* 

For all of you who've been worried about me, everything is fine! I'm doing okay as an actress, I think. Please watch my drama when you have time, okay? You know what you think is important to me, right? Even if I tell Tessa that I don't care about her. I love you all!

James- WHO IS THE PERSON WHO SINGS THE MAIN THEME?!

Mel- Why?

James- She sounds so familiar. It's killing me, because I can't figure out who it is.

Mel- Read the credits, James.

James- Queen Be. Queen Be?

Mel- Did you know that I have a Wikipedia page? There's not much on it, yet, but...

James- Did you really write that song?

Mel- Both the English and Korean versions. The other OST songs are pretty cool, too, though.

Jackie- Wait, so the two guys in the drama with you... There's nothing going on there?

Mel- In the drama, sure. In real life, we never see each other once filming's over.

Jackie- That's disappointing.

Mel- Why?

Jackie- They're closer to you in age. 

Mel- Minor.

 

*Comments under Two Lands, One People episode seven on Viki*

This drama is so amazing... I want to cry...

I didn't really like Queen Be at first, but she can act. I'm so jealous...

*sniffles* She really doesn't give either of them the time of day to their faces... but then she gets away from them and starts crying...

When Hyuk Soo tried to grab her and use her as a hostage and escape, and she just grabbed a pen and stabbed him in the leg... and then when he's crippled on the floor, she's just like "stretcher!" XD XD XD

I like Rosaline. She's a lot tougher than your usual Kdrama heroine. She doesn't whine and cry when things get hard.

Except for the fact that she's going to fricking kill herself this way. Why are those boys even in love with her?

Why is anyone ever in love with anyone? Especially in Kdramas...

I want her to end up with Hyun Woo! I mean, Jin Hwan. He's so adorable and sweet to her, but she keeps ignoring him and taking care of that North Korean guy, and all he does is hurt her!

Dude, have you guys heard the theme song?! Queen Be is SINGING that! "The one who needs me, or the one I need?"

Wait, is that really? As in, the girl playing Rosaline?

Yeah! Both versions! 

Daebak... I listen to this song every day... When does the OST come out?

Don't know... but I'm buying it.

Did she write it, too?

I think so...

Wow. All you guys do is gush about her. She's not even that good. You just think she's good, just because she's American and sticks out. Her character isn't even that great. All she does is make trouble for the other two.

Clearly you just don't like her BECAUSE she's American. I mean, is that her fault? I'm from Germany, but  still like Korean music. Doesn't that mean it's okay for Queen Be to want to be in Korea? And I think Rosaline's great. This is the FIRST time she's broken down and cried, after six episodes of all that's happened. And the song is AMAZING. Pretty much how all of us feel about North and South Korea...

But seriously, that song... Is SM going to make Queen Be a singer, too?

They totally should! That would be awesome!

Okay, we admit, the girl still has plenty of haters, but it can't be too bad. This drama was supposed to be the underdog of the winter, but it's got the highest viewer rating! What does that say about them?

You guys, "Divide" is ranked #2 on the charts, under the "soundtracks" category. We should vote it up!

I'll just go hit repeat a few thousand times...

I'll go with you. XD
