Jin JIn is here!
-
"What is Yujie (Jin Jin) up to after
leaving the show?"
-
Hi everyone, I'm
Jin Yujie.
-
Yes. "Yujie," the Chinese phrase for
"Jade that is clear as ice."
-
I've been off the show for...
-
about one or two months now.
-
While I've been off the show
this last month or two,
-
I've been preparing to go back
to school in Korea.
-
Filling out some paperwork.
-
But due to the pandemic in Korea
-
suddenly getting worse again,
-
So for now, I have been granted a year
-
in Shanghai to work while I go to school.
-
Just like when I was in Korea.
-
It also feels like...
-
I feel incredibly lucky to be able
to stay in Shanghai.
-
And keep working on my own things
-
while I keep going to school.
-
So while I've been off the show,
-
I've returned to being a full time
student.
-
Reading up on the books
-
I didn't get to read.
-
Picking up the schoolwork I missed
and so forth.
-
"Leaving the show was not goodbye:
Keeping up with castmates."
-
Since leaving the show,
-
I hang out with my old
roommates a lot.
-
The six of us.
-
We'll often go out to eat and talk.
-
Because we've become
-
pretty close friends to each other.
-
After getting to know each other,
-
it's normally hard to meet so
many good friends.
-
So behind the scenes,
-
we've all become really close.
-
Like today, I'm getting ready to go
-
and hang out with Carmon.
-
We're going out to eat.
-
It's like
-
if one of us is in a bad place,
-
or if we have something on our
minds,
-
we'll talk it out with each other.
-
We're all very close-knit now.
-
Originally Nana was invited too.
-
The three of us going out to eat.
-
But Nana lately,
-
since it's winter and the weather
has been bad,
-
she caught a cold.
-
So I told her to stay home and rest.
-
It'll just be me and Carmon today.
-
"Actually with Binshen..."
-
So...
-
Everyone is interested in me and Binshen.
-
We...
after we left the show,
-
I have seen Binshen.
-
Maybe a few times.
-
Privately,
-
because the six of us have a
group chat
-
so we all talk almost every day.
-
Binshen, in the group chat,
-
doesn't speak up much
-
because he's too busy with work.
-
Pro gamers don't have the same
lifestyle as we do, I think.
-
They also face a lot of pressure.
-
So we try not to--
-
The five of us try not to bother
him.
-
Also it's hard for him to schedule
time with us.
-
But--
-
our friendship is still great.
-
We still talk often and try to
see each other.
-
We even went to an escape room.
-
A horror-themed one
-
that Binshen organized.
-
He's a very thoughtful guy.
-
Not the kind you guys always say:
-
"Central air conditioning."
-
As a friend, he's very thoughtful.
-
"Some other thoughts I wanted to share
with my cuties behind the screen."
-
A lot has happened in 2020.
-
Some good, some bad.
-
I think, for me,
-
it was a very, very special year.
-
This year as well,
-
I think is also a very special year.
-
Because at the start,
-
I was introduced to those of you
behind the screen.
-
You little cuties.
-
And for me,
-
maybe the next few years
will be different.
-
I'm working hard at my job,
-
at transforming myself.
-
At sharing more of my day-to-day
with you all.
-
My fashion knowledge.
-
And some of my hobbies and interests.
-
These will all
-
help me open up myself and share with
you all.
-
Hope everyone will keep supporting me.
-
Keep caring for me.
-
Keep watching "Shanghai Share Life."
-
I'm going to say it again,
-
I'll wait for you at
"Shanghai Share Life."
-
