Zhou Mei and Ming Li led their fellow Black Stars to raise all of their banners to welcome their Boss. V's army of fans also did the same.
Almost the entire audience was filled with banners of all sizes showing Jennie and V's names and images with messages of support from their adoring fans. It was an impressive sight. The cameras recorded everything, even though the show was still on commercial break. Director He planned on showing these shots once the show resumed.
Finally, the commercial break ended. The two hosts on the side of the stage flashed their best smiles to the camera.
Male host: "Welcome back to 'MusicFest Tonight'!"
Female host: "Wow! Listen to the audience! They're so loud that I can barely hear myself talking! I know that everyone can't wait for the final performers!"
Male host: "How are you feeling, everyone? Are you excited?"
Audience: "YES!!! Jennie!!! V!!! Taennie!!! Taennie!!! Taennie!!!"
Female host: "I think we should hurry up and introduce the grand finale act or the audience might drag us off the stage in their impatience."
Everyone laughed at her joke, temporarily interrupting the audience's loud chants. However, this only lasted for a few seconds before everyone resumed calling for the long-awaited finale performers of the night.
Male host: "Please be quiet so that we can make the introductions..."
The leaders of the Black Stars and V's army of fans immediately controlled their respective group members. Soon, the entire audience became quiet. Nevertheless, their excitement and anticipation could almost be felt as tangible vibrations in the air.
Even backstage, none of the artists who finished performing earlier left yet. They all stayed in order to watch the finale performance.
Female host: "The moment that you've all been waiting for has finally arrived!"
Male host: "The next performers are award-winning musicians who are considered to be two of the most talented young artists our country has to offer in the field of pop music. Their first collaboration single is the theme song of the highly-anticipated TV drama 'Our Love, Our Destiny'which is currently airing this season."
Female: "Yes. Their new single debuted at #1 in the music charts, demonstrating not only their musical prowess but also the magnitude of their combined popularity across the country."
Male host: "Performing their new hit single together for the first time on live television, please welcome the beautiful Jennie and the handsome Taehyung singing—"
Both: "Shining Eyes!"
The audience cheered loudly once again. Everyone was on their feet. They waved the banners of their Boss and Prince while screaming in excitement. However, they stopped when the lights suddenly turned off.
A dim light gradually illuminated the chamber orchestra at the back of the stage. There were fewer musicians this time compared to Jennie's usual full symphony orchestra. There was also a four-piece pop band consisting of an acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass guitar and drums. The acoustic guitarist sat prominently on a high stool in front of the other musicians. The grand pianist (not Jennie this time) also took up the other prominent position. To the side, there were three back-up singers. Two females and one male.
The acoustic guitarist opened the music by fingerpicking his guitar strings to produce a brief but silky five-chord melody. The Spanish-flavoured guitar chords suggested passion, tugging directly at the audience's romantic sensibilities. The audience's anticipation and excitement for the song only increased.
