There have been special features that Li Xiuman once gave his artists the stage name and group name, and many names are beyond people's imagination. It turned out that even Aespa had not escaped this "disaster", and two South Korean members of Aespa almost called this name.
Liu Zhimin, now known as "Liu Zhimin", her stage name is KARINA. Hearing the name Karina is very much in line with Aespa's concept of a group based on AI and data, and there is a feeling of a future female warrior. But did you know? SM originally gave her the initial stage name of JASMINE.
It is the JASMINE (Chinese Jasmine: Princess Jasmine) in the "Aladdin Lamp" that we know, in fact, the name is very good, but JASMINE has preconceived notions, and when it comes to this name, we first think of the beautiful Middle Eastern style Jasmine Princess.
Jin Weiting, now fully named "Jin Min-ting", one of her names is Winter. When everyone heard the stage name winter when they made their debut, they were more surprised, but fortunately, the atmosphere of Jin Dongdong himself and winter was also more compatible, and they liked it after listening to it for a long time.
But did you know? Her original name was not Winter, but Snow, which is related to winter, and the name is very Disney. Compared to the white snow, it seems that winter is not bad, although the snow is very fairytale, but there is a little "earthy taste".
Imagine if Winter and Karina really named the picture of Snow White and Jasmine, and didn't know that they thought that Disney Princess was a girl group? So did Ning Ning and Giselle initially name Ariel (Mermaid) and Lepe (Sleeping Beauty)?
It can only be said that this name is very Li Xiuman! Who among the artists under sm does not have a few stage names with black history? Among them, the classic is "Bian Guan Yu". Bian Boxian once broke the news on a Korean variety show that Teacher Lee Soo-man had previously given him a stage name of "Bian Guan Yu", and Bian Boxian refused to use his real name as a stage name.
Wu Shixun is also his own real name, but Li Xiuman gave him his stage name at the beginning as "Wu Seoul", and Li Xiuman is not sorry for you, and you can also figure out this name. Does EXO's "Youth World" need to be said more? To say that the most impactful is the former alternate stage name of Dongfang Shenqi, when Li Xiuman flew to China to meet Jin Yong in order to obtain the copyright of "Oriental Undefeated". Later, due to some problems, the Oriental Shenqi's undefeated plan, which was once called the East, failed. This is not bad, another oriental god once used the name "five internal organs and six intestines".
Li Xiuman is not a loss to you, almost your artists have one more Jin Baixue and Liu Jasmine!
