Chapter 89 Controversy
The purpose of the advisory group is actually to guide the topic.
When the program team knows that some content is likely to cause controversy, in order to avoid responsibility to a certain extent, they naturally choose to throw the topic directly to the audience and let them pick it up on their own.
This is what Li Chengyin mentioned at the beginning, "We don't instill ideas, we only explain practical problems."
And what they want to trigger is not just civil debate. If certain professional scholars can also participate, it can help the show to push the show to a higher level on the one hand, and on the other hand, it can trigger a big social discussion, either
They were killed because the problem was too serious, or because they attracted too much attention and no one dared to take action.
Therefore, the main significance of the existence of Li Chengyin and his advisory group is to conduct a debate in the face of practical issues. The result of the debate...of course will not have any results. It will only allow the pros and cons to explain their own opinions.
After expressing their opinions, put the question in front of the audience and let them choose their side.
Just like at this time, after one party believes that girl groups are commodities and tools, the other side naturally expresses different ideas: "I think idols cannot be regarded as a pure commodity, and boy groups cannot be regarded as mere commodities.
Girl groups are regarded as a completely commercial activity..."
"In fact, the existence of idols has its positive meaning, and this is the value given to it by the idols themselves and the fans. Maybe they were just singing and dancing tools in the company's position at the beginning, but after they performed,
After fans see and like it, when they interact with each other, it will reach another level.
"I think idols play a huge role in forming the identity of modern people. In fact, it is through popular culture that audiences and fans establish their self-awareness (subjectivity), and use it to define their position in society, establish their personal identity and
Awareness of oneself..."
"Idol worship is not only a physiological-psychological phenomenon, but also a social-moral phenomenon, and this phenomenon also reflects the current economic and cultural development. Therefore, we need to see the emergence of idols, and types similar to girl groups
The richness and evolution of styles are all related to social needs.
"If combined with the current changes in the peninsula..."
If we only discuss the so-called idol culture and the development of girl groups between companies, idols, and fans, it would be too shallow. However, when we analyze the emergence and development of the entire idol culture from a sociological and macro perspective, it will be very important to us.
For ordinary viewers and idol fans, there will be an unclear feeling.
I didn't understand, but I was shocked.
And many times, the audience will have a very strange phenomenon, that is, even if they don't understand, they will instinctively believe in this academic authority because they watch the arguments between the two sides and each other's arguments are well-founded.
So even if you don’t understand, you still want to listen.
Maybe they just want to know a result, at least they should be able to understand the result, right?
But when the show ended, the results were not produced. Instead, a small "game" was played at this time.
"Can ordinary people persevere if they try the performance of a girl group?"
Naturally, we face different situations. There are underground performances, street performances, and performances on stage. According to different situations, we face different situations and different groups of people, and the "amateurs" invited by the program team - in fact, of course, they are
The arranged state of shame is also different.
At this time, a new topic was raised: "If idols are just regarded as an ordinary career and a normal job, do you think it is easier or more difficult than your own work?"
The answers of people who have experienced it on different occasions are different. Of course, the topic of "the mentality of experience and work cannot be confused" has also been considered, but the core part of this problem is still, "the professional discrimination of people in the peninsula."
Question".
"Idols are at the bottom of the contempt chain in the entertainment industry. Is this reasonable?"
"This is the topic of the next issue..."
I typed out a to-be-continued program, and before I knew it, the nearly one-hour program had ended. Many people felt that they still had something to say after watching it, and the points they gained were naturally different.
"The advisory group for the debate are top students invited by the program from Seoul National University, which is indeed the top university on the peninsula. Although I can't quite understand what they say, they are so awesome!"
"Does anyone know where the underground girl group performs? No other meaning, I just want to criticize such a place."
"If TV station M doesn't do their music programs well, how can they create a channel like this?"
"Isn't it normal for idols to be at the bottom of the contempt chain? Who said they can't do anything? They can make money and gain thousands of favors just by relying on their faces. This is not at all in line with our Republic of Korea.
The spirit of involution!"
"Ah, the voices of the Obamas on the advisory board are so nice. I really want to see what they look like in person..."
"It's so uncomfortable to watch amateur performances from different industries. I feel embarrassed for them. Even though they're just standing on the stage and haven't done anything, I already feel like they're starting to pick their feet."
"Haha, I am also a clerk. I admit that my previous views on those girl groups seemed a bit extreme. Think about the situation I was in, there was no way to speak normally, and they could still perform with smiling faces and high heels.
, it’s really amazing.”
"Such a comparison is obviously unfair. That is their job. What is there to praise for doing their job well?"
"So after watching this episode, I still haven't come to a conclusion. Where is the way out for the bottom-level girl groups? Moreover, are there really so many nameless girl groups in the peninsula?"
"If it is according to the definition in the show, it is indeed the case. There are girl groups performing every night in the square near my home. I have never seen them on TV, and I can't find their songs. They perform the same
Works of famous girl groups. To be honest, I don’t know what the meaning of their existence is."
"..."
No matter what, if it can spark discussion, it is actually considered a success.
However, the ratings of this first episode were only 0.9%, and the peak was only 1.4%. In the "prime time" of Friday night, it was obviously not a success.
Of course, this is also related to the lack of early publicity of the program. After all, for such a program that is destined to cause controversy, they do not dare to make a big splash when it comes out. They have to form a certain social effect before they can feel confident.
"Such ratings are not good, but they are expected to be accepted. Our goal is to gain some popularity through the discussion in this issue. The goal is to reach about 1.2% in the second issue. If it can rise steadily thereafter, it will
It can be said that this season has been considered a success..."
After all, it is a reality-themed variety show that the TV station has never tried before. It is just because the girl group is not involved. In fact, it is not consistent with the audience group that M itself is targeting. With the support of various DEBUFFs, it can still have such a start. The most important thing is
Judging from the subsequent discussion, the feedback was pretty good.
The most important thing is that the one-hour and thirty-minute "extended full version" that was simultaneously released online has some interesting supplementary content, including some explosive scenes that are not suitable for broadcast on a channel like M.
