Chapter 156 - 152 Various Thoughts_2
The opening scene didn’t use dimmed lighting, but instead cast warm-toned lights from the ceiling.
The outfits of this group were reminiscent of what you’d wear for a beach outing, with orange-red hues dominating the palette. There were sportswear and casual apparel, but amongst them, Jiang Mengqi stood out.
She was the only one wearing a sleeveless turquoise tank top. If not for the positioning, your first impression might have been that she was the C position.
One wonders if this outfit was assigned to her intentionally by the production team.
Today, she also wore a reddish-brown curly wig, which paired nicely with her fair, creamy complexion.
However, the oversized black-framed glasses ruined the look, making her seem slightly dowdy.
Among the group, Liu Mengmeng had the best styling. She wore an orange-red sports jacket over a white cropped tank top, matched with a white sports miniskirt adorned with blue flying patterns. Her ensemble looked youthful and vibrant.
She also opened with the first line of the song. This track, "Sugar Cube," was a popular pop song created by the USA band Red Devil. It was quite famous over there.
However, many songs that are hugely popular in North America tend to have average success elsewhere globally. "Sugar Cube" shared this fate—although various groups in Asia had performed it, it never really caught on.
Still, many boy and girl groups use it as a promotional dance song because it’s upbeat, relatively easy to sing, and has a strong rhythm that makes it simple to stay on beat.
Liu Mengmeng’s opening vocals were decent. Thanks to her professional training since childhood, she hit all the notes accurately.
Next came Xu Qianhua from HK’s Emperor Entertainment, and the moment she opened her mouth, she instantly outclassed her predecessor.
