Into your heart! [ZhanYi FF]

Chapter 33 - Unexpected

"... Now we come to our top topic of the evening. You've probably already read or heard it somewhere and yes, it's true! He is coming back. Five years ago he left his home country to study and train in a sports and art academy in South Korea. After that he toured the world with his boy group and became a worldwide known idol, superstar. Our singer, dancer, actor and host, Wang Yibo is coming back home. And already his fans are going crazy with joy. His concert scheduled for next month has been sold out in less than a minute. And right after the concert, he'll start filming a series in which he has the lead role. We met him in Seoul before he left and were allowed to ask him a few questions." Said the presenter.

Then a video of the interview was shown. In it, Yibo was wearing tight black jeans, a white undershirt and a white shirt whose buttons were undone. His hair was dyed blue and he wore earrings. He looked at the camera, smiling shyly. "Hello Yibo, thank you for taking time for us today." Said the journalist.

"You're very welcome." Replied Yibo.

"Let's get to the first question. You've been away from home for 5 years now. What are you most looking forward to when you get back?"

"Mhhh, definitely my family. I would have loved to visit them every now and then. But besides the exhausting studies and the subsequent two-year tour with the boy group, it never happened. We could only ever talk on the phone."

"And who else are you looking forward to seeing?"

"My friends. If they are still my friends. Unfortunately, I never really had time to get in touch with them. But I hope they are still my friends and that I can see them again soon."

"Why did you decide so suddenly to leave the boys group and go back to China?"

"It was anything but sudden. Actually, I had wanted to go back right after I graduated. But then in my last year at the academy, the boys group was formed and I was a part of it. But it was clear to me that I only wanted to do that for a maximum of two years after graduation. I also had fewer and fewer gigs because I was active as an actor."

"A k-drama, right?"

"Yeah right. Well, anyway, five years has been long enough now, and I finally want to go back home."

"I can well understand that. I was abroad for my studies and I was also glad when I could finally go back and see my family and friends again. Okay, enough about me. Next question. Is there any truth to the rumors that you're dating this beautiful Korean model?"

"No, there's nothing true about that. She and I were studying together and happened to meet at a restaurant. Fans took pictures and then there was wild speculation. We're just friends, though."

"So not a girlfriend?"

"Definitely not."

"Then a boyfriend? We heard that Kim Seungyoun went to Keno Academy with you and followed you to Seoul and continued studying. It was said that you two were very close."

"He's my best friend. Not my boyfriend. And yes, he followed me, but not alone."

"I understand. I know you have to move on right away, so one last question. When you get back, what do you want most?"

"Mhhh, to see people close to my heart again. That's actually the most important thing to me."

"I'll keep my fingers crossed for that and look forward to interviewing you in Beijing very soon. Thank you very much."

"Thank you too." Said Yibo and the video ended. The presenter still talked about the upcoming concert, when and where it will take place and then said goodbye as well.
