The third season of Mango Tv's ace variety show "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves" is being recorded in full swing.
Most of the "Lang Jie 3" online transmission list has been confirmed
In the blink of an eye, this phenomenon-level entertainment program has reached its third year, and this time, zheng Xiuyan's name has been seen in the list of sisters that have been determined.
This is also the first time in three years that "Sister Lang" has a foreign sister of non-Chinese descent participate in the program.
Fans who are familiar with Zheng Xiuyan have been looking forward to it, but the audience who does not understand it mutters in their hearts:
In fact, although Jeong so-yeon is Korean, she is not Korean.
Because Jeong so-yeon's sister, Jeong So-kyung, has dual Korean and American citizenship, many people think that Jeong so-yeon's nationality is the same as her sister's.
But in fact, she was born in the United States and is a full-fledged Korean American.
At a concert on July 29, 2017, Jeong so-yeon publicly declared her nationality, saying that she did not have Korean nationality.
And this time to participate in the recording of Sister Lang, Zheng Xiuyan also deleted the Korean prefix on Weibo for the first time, although it caused dissatisfaction among Korean fans, but it was also a gesture of attitude, which instantly made the domestic audience feel good.
It seems that this sister knows how to eat just right.
When it comes to Zheng Xiuyan, of course, she will talk about her grudge with her sisters in the entertainment industry, and her sisterly love with her sister and girlfriend.
In the entertainment industry comparable to the scene of the palace fight, such a sisterhood that is not plastic is really rare, and let us take it slowly.
One
How popular is Zheng Xiuyan, who came to China to participate in the recording of Lang Jie?
Looking at the popularity index shown by Weibo's official data, Zheng Xiuyan's voice of more than 10,000 messages ranked first in the list, more than twice that of Tan Weida, who ranked second.
Away from home, being able to surpass many strong local sisters, the popularity is far ahead, it is indeed admirable.
But fans who know Jeong so-yeon should not be surprised at all.
Zheng Xiuyan was born in 1989 in San Francisco, California, and is now 33 years old.
In 2000, Mom and Dad took the Cheng sisters on a trip to South Korea, a trip that changed the trajectory of their lives.
One day, when my mother took 11-year-old Jeong so-yeon and 6-year-old Jeong so-jing to shopping at The Lotte Department Store shopping mall in Seoul, she was accidentally spotted and discovered by the star scouts of the famous entertainment company "SM Entertainment".
However, at that time, her sister Zheng Xiujing was only 6 years old, so she could only let her sister Zheng Xiuyan participate in the company's training first.
The younger sister did not officially become a trainee until she was 12 years old in 2006.
After being selected as a trainee, Jung so-yeon went to South Korea for training.
After 7 years and 6 months of hard training, Zheng Xiuyan finally made her official debut in 2007 with the girl group "Girls' Generation".
She was 18 years old.
As the longest-trained member of "Girls' Generation", Zheng Xiuyan should not let go of becoming the lead singer of "Girls' Generation".
At this time, Zheng Xiujing had just become a trainee, and she was still a 13-year-old ignorant girl.
However, the energetic sister on stage has become her role model.

At that time, it was the peak of the Korean Wave, and "Girls' Generation" was immediately popular throughout South Korea as soon as it was launched.
Known as a national girl group in South Korea, they quickly spread their popularity throughout Asia and the world.
However, many things in this world are common suffering and hardship, and the same wealth is difficult.
With the success of the career, the palace fight drama of "Girls' Generation" was inevitably staged.
Among them, Zheng Xiuyan's withdrawal incident has its own opinions on both sides, which can be called Rashomon.
In 2014, Zheng Xiuyan posted on Weibo that she was told by other sisters and companies of the girl group that she was no longer a member of the team. Accidents and humiliations fill the lines.
However, other members and the company countered, saying that Zheng Xiuyan "announced her withdrawal from the team due to conflicts between individual activities and group activities."
What is right and wrong can only be seen.
But Jung so-yeon later described in her novel Shine that many of the korean entertainment industry's fiercely competitive and deceitful plots were described.
Rachel, the protagonist of the book, a Korean-American girl, entered a Korean brokerage company as a trainee in order to realize her dream of stardom, and did not expect to experience a shocking shady event.
In addition to the power attacks of the brokerage company and the big men in the circle, there is no shortage of you and me among the trainees.
She writes:
"These glories, these fames?
It's all an illusion that the record companies have created for them, and those at the top have single-handedly operated it.
And they will do whatever it takes to portray you as an irresponsible, difficult and depraved female artist.
They'll destroy you, and then they'll make it look like you're self-destructive.
The company says we are a family.
But they don't care about me, or you, or anyone.
They only care about whether they can turn us into the perfect money-making machine and help them make a lot of money. ”
"People always say that three people can't keep a secret unless two of them die.
Well, that's one hundred percent true in my world.
Here, you live forever under the eyes of others, and your secrets will one day kill you. ”
Zheng Xiuyan even described in the book that her teammates drugged the heroine's drink in order to get a better chance to perform.
“...... It's also an exciting opportunity – one that every young trainee in the country would love to have. Today, we will elect one person...
My stomach churned and I almost fell out of my chair...
She must have added something to my wine..."
Although the plot of the novel cannot be taken seriously, the character setting is almost completely in contrast to Jung So-yeon's real life experience - the same Korean-American trainees, the same nine-person girl team, the meaning of which is inevitably reminiscent.

Fortunately, there is more than competition in life, and there may be misunderstandings with the sisters of the girl group, but unpleasant things will always pass.
And, don't forget, Xiuyan also has her sister Xiujing.
When her sister debuted, Zheng Xiujing also became a trainee.
Unlike Zheng Xiuyan's affinity beauty, the same beautiful Zheng Xiujing is beautiful with a sense of distance.
With her super high appearance, she looks a little indifferent, and there is always a faint sense of alienation between her eyebrows.
But it is also this unique temperament that makes her stand out on the stage.
Although she has her sister as a role model, Zheng Xiujing admits that she has no confidence in acting.
As a trainee, every time she wanted the teacher to watch the full performance at the end of rehearsals, she would always be so nervous that she needed to hide in the bathroom and spend a long time overcoming her fear of the performance.
Compared with the performance, Zheng Xiujing is a proper student bully.
Although she went to school while studying art, she was admitted to Both Hanyang University and Sungkyunkwan University with excellent results, and successfully entered Sungkyunkwan University with the first place.
Zheng Xiujing, who has filmed many advertisements as a child star, finally ended her trainee career in 2009 and officially debuted as the role of the girl group f(x) as the lead singer.
F(x) is less influential and famous than Girls' Generation.
However, in this group, even ordinary Chinese audiences have two more familiar characters, one is the female star Song Qian, who has become popular all over the country, and she was the captain of f(x) at that time.
The other is The Sydney pear, which has died of incense.
In 2020, Zheng Xiujing and SM Entertainment made an appointment not to renew, although she did not quit the team, but she has begun to focus on performance.
However, SM was obviously reluctant to Zheng Xiujing, and finally formulated an exclusive contract for her, saying that in the future, more acting projects would be tailored for her in the entertainment industry.

From the growth experience of Zheng Xiuyan and Zheng Xiujing, it can be seen that the personalities of the sisters are very different.
The elder sister Zheng Xiujing is cheerful and lively and affinity, while the younger sister Zheng Xiujing is slow and hot, and Nei Xiu has a sense of alienation.
However, this does not affect the feelings of the sisters.
Because of the different personalities and work reasons, the sisters can not meet often, so there have been rumors that the Zheng sisters are not in harmony.
It was even rumored that Zheng Xiujing extended her hand to her sister and stole her sister's money.
But the Zheng family is rich, and the two sisters have not lacked the material supply since childhood.
The truth is nothing more than two sisters' amusing each other on a certain show, but they are amplified by good people and people with hearts.
Fortunately, the sisters did not pay attention to these boring rumors.
Personalities are different, and maybe their hobbies are different, but this does not affect their sisterly feelings.
Zheng Xiuyan once said that quitting her girlhood was her lowest period, and if it were not for the support of her sister, I am afraid it would be difficult to get out smoothly.
In life, the two sisters do not interact much in person, but warm small scenes can be seen everywhere.
For example, when Zheng Xiuyan went to Japan for a concert, she would make food before leaving, and then paste a convenient note for her sister.
And Xiujing always silently supports her sister, even if there is a quarrel, she will take the initiative to apologize and reconcile with her sister.
Once on the show, the host had a question for Zheng Xiujing: "If my sister Zheng Xiuyan gets married next month..."
Xiujing actually burst into tears, wiped her tears with the sofa pillow, and said vaguely: "It seems that it can't work..."
It is really enviable to have such a lovely sister.
When Zheng Xiuyan summed up her feelings with her sister, she said:
"We're like sisters, and the best thing about that we work in the same industry is that we can rely on each other."
Five
Speaking of sisterhood, Zheng Xiuyan is really lucky to have a sister who can be relied on, and there is more than a sister who can be relied on.
Compared with the sisterhood based on blood with Jung So-kyung, the relationship between Jeong So-yeon and Park Min-young is truly a like-minded and sincere sisterly love.
Park Min-young, who is regarded as an OL professional by fans, was born in 1986, and the elder Jung So-yeon is 3 years old.
In 2006, Park Min-young officially debuted with the feature-length family sitcom "Unstoppable HighKick" produced by MBC.
In recent years, a "Why Is Secretary Kim Like That" has made Park Min-young's popularity soar.
At the same time, she also entered the Chinese mainland, and cooperated with Zhang Han and other mainland actors to shoot TV series such as "Night Walk in Jinyi" and "City of Time", gradually letting Chinese audiences know her.
Jung so-yeon met Park Min-young, who was in college at the age of 15, when she was still in middle school, and it can be described as "love at first sight", and the sisterhood has continued to this day.
When the two met, they had not yet debuted, and because of their similar interests, they became good girlfriends who talked about everything.
Even when Jeong so-yeon released a new song, she was still in the stage of secrecy and had already let Park Min-young enjoy the review.
This level of intimacy makes Jeong so-yeon's fans jealous.
They often travel together, and once when they went to Hokkaido, the two of them bought the same white boots and traveled together.
For the artist's taboo shirt, in the eyes of this pair of sisters, there is no existence, and it is already a daily operation to buy things in double.
When attending the public event, Jeong so-yeon actually appeared wearing the same outfit that Park Min-young had worn a few weeks ago, and even the shoes were the same pair.
The feelings are good to this step, the entertainment industry is rare, and what is more amazing is that the fans of both sides are also unusually harmonious, and Aiwu and Wudi said: "The two goddesses are so beautiful" and "both are the first".
Over the years, the sisters have supported each other, giving each other warmth and love in the complex and impetuous entertainment industry.
When the young Jung So-yeon always found Park Min-young to talk to whenever she encountered something wrong, Park Min-young would also give her the comfort she needed most as a sister.
Until Jung So-yeon also grew up, Park Min-young said: "We have known each other for more than 10 years.
Jessica has become an adult, so now it's a friend I can rely on. ”
Some fans have compiled interviews that Jung so-yeon and Park Min-young have received over the years and concluded:
"They are really thinking about each other, and they don't seem to have any work intersection, but they have imprinted each other in their bones."
There are even people who write articles describing the "love" between Jung so-yeon and Park Min-young, you read it right, it is love.
Perhaps their fairy friendship has transcended gender and love, and who can say that they are not?
postscript:
Such a beautiful relationship between female celebrities is already a scarce commodity.
The melon-eating masses have seen more of the entertainment industry's anti-hatred and turning clouds and rain, and they can no longer believe the so-called "true feelings" in this noisy world.
But Jung so-yeon's sisterhood with Jung so-kyung and Park Min-young allows fans to see the almost forgotten side of contemporary ukiyo-e, which is really precious.
Know how to cherish, so as not to miss; know gratitude, will harvest the truth.
True feelings come from a cherished heart; true gain comes from a grateful attitude.
People can miss a lot in their lifetime, but don't miss friends who are really worthy of your dating.
Perhaps, all we lack is faith, even if we are scaled all over the body.
Bless Zheng Xiuyan and her sisters, and hope that she will continue her sisterhood in Sister Lang and make more good sisters.
