"Absolutely awesome!"
Zheng Eunji saw Chi Jingyuan directly imitating the look in his MV and fired at him. The action was really similar. He had obviously watched the "dope" MV more than once.
"Hahaha..." Sun Naen and Wu Xiarong, who were standing next to them, covered their mouths and kept laughing. At the same time, they kept looking at Chi Jingyuan who walked in.
Seeing this, Chi Jingyuan also smiled. He put his hand to his mouth and made a 'check mark', imitating the dance moves in apink's "", which made several girls opposite laugh.
"Hey Yigu, you are really handsome in this MV for your prelude song."
Zheng Endi took a step closer with a big grin, stepped on his feet and patted Chi Jingyuan's shoulder hard, sighing: "How did you come up with the shape of this police uniform?"
"Well, Jingyuan Xi's police officer look in the MV for "Dope" is really great. We were quite surprised when we watched the MV in the afternoon." Wu Xiarong followed the verification.
Sun Naen did not speak, but kept nodding with a smile in her eyes.
"It was a sudden idea, because I was thinking of cosplaying people from different professions for this song."
Chi Jingyuan first explained briefly, and then raised an eyebrow at Zheng Endi: "Handsome, I told you at that time, if our return was not postponed, we would have knocked you away and asked you to call me So arrogant..."
"Tch, come and hit me if you have the ability. Isn't it amazing how popular you are?"
Zheng Eunchi looked at Chi Jingyuan without showing any signs of weakness, then pursed his lips and stretched out his hand to shake: "It's a pity that you guys won't officially come back until next week. We'll finish playing songs after next week. Haha, you can't hit me!"
She squinted her eyes and showed her teeth in a smile, while twisting her shoulders and butt provocatively. The look on her face made Chi Jingyuan want to slap the sole of his shoe on her face.
The two sisters next to them couldn't help covering their faces and laughing when they saw Ernie looking like this.
They were actually quite envious that O'Neill and Chi Jingyuan were so familiar with each other and could make any kind of joke.
"Don't be so arrogant now, you will eventually hit him one day..." Chi Jingyuan looked at him and gritted his teeth.
"Hahaha..." Not only was Zheng Endi not worried, but he also laughed arrogantly, making Chi Jingyuan laugh and shake his head speechlessly.
We haven't seen each other for a few months. After making a joke, Chi Jingyuan chatted with a few people here for a while.
Sun Naen is not as resentful as before. Now she is much clearer when facing Chi Jingyuan. She always looks at him with squinting eyes and smiles, and then listens to their chat. Applause and cheer from time to time.
After chatting for a while, Apink was called out of the rehearsal. After the two parties waved goodbye to each other, he returned to the lounge.
There were no other friends in this episode, so there was no need to go there. After playing the game console for more than an hour in a boring way, Team K began to pre-record the stage on the set that had been set up.
Although they had rehearsed countless times before, they still recorded it five times without making any big mistakes for the best effect, and then selected the best version for tonight's live broadcast.
During the pre-recording, Chi Jingyuan noticed that there were a few people sitting under the stage who were taking pictures of them with their mobile phones. Judging from their appearance and age, they were obviously not fans. He guessed that Park Jae Hyun had communicated with SM and the company sent them to take pictures of them. Taken.
When it was done, the tired and panting six people returned to the lounge and sat there, waiting for the evening show to start.
…………
"Mina-chan, what are you looking at?"
In the practice room of the JYP building, Hirai Momo looked at Saka Minatozaki who was eating snacks. She swallowed and restrained her strong hunger with discipline. She turned to look at the girl next to her who was staring at her phone and wearing headphones. Mingjing Nan took the initiative to change the topic.
She was recently disciplined by a teacher because of her figure and is undergoing strict figure management.
"I must be watching "m!". EXO is back tonight...didn't they release the music and MV at noon?" Saka Minatozaki knew without looking at it. She sucked in a small piece of chocolate and puffed out her face. Eat comfortably.
"It's all in Korean, can Mina understand it?" Hirai Momo blinked.
"Mina learned Korean much faster than you did back then. Her language talent is really great. Now she can communicate." Minazaki Saka said in a somewhat nonchalant manner.
"It's not a comeback, it's a special stage for the prelude."
Najing Nan suddenly turned his head to correct it, then turned around and continued to look seriously.
"Oh, yes, "Dope", I also watched this MV at noon. The song is average and it doesn't feel like my style, but the choreography is really cool."
As Hirai Momo spoke, she couldn't help but twist a few times.
"I haven't seen it yet... Is it really handsome?" Minazaki Saka swallowed the chocolate and licked her lips happily.
She didn't have a good feeling about EXO. In her impression, they were just a very popular boy band in the peninsula.
"Um!"
Najing Nan turned to her again and nodded vigorously, then turned back to look at her phone.
"Mina-chan is still the prettiest..."
Minazaki Saka thought Nai Minami looked cute like this, so she sat down with a smile and hugged her with her hands.
Najing Nan pushed it but didn't push it. The VCR had already started playing on the screen, so he didn't bother to care about her and moved the phone over there:
"here we go……"
…………
In the VCR, the half-length photos and names of each member of the EXO-K team flashed in sequence, and the last six people appeared on the screen together and it was frozen. It was the cover photo of "dope" that was praised by fans before.
The scene switched to the stage. After the SM staff carefully built it, it was surrounded by barbed wire. There were disorganized water pipes, road signs, documents, signs and other unrelated things from all walks of life. The entire stage looked like a little... The utility room is messy, but it clearly reveals a sense of freedom and strong hip-hop.
Song information appears on the left side of the screen:
The song title is "dope".
Singer EXO-K.
Lyricist.
Composer.
At this time, Kim Junmyeon squatted in front of the camera and said the opening lyrics to the camera: "Come on, let's listen to EXO's song for the first time, right?"
The camera gradually rose under his tug, and at the same time the accompanying music also sounded, with the volume slowly rising from low to high, as if it was gaining momentum and waiting for something.
Jin Jun pretended to listen, and when the beat of the accompaniment became faster and faster, he snapped his fingers hard and fast at the camera, and then the camera turned, and a small jumping Chi Jingyuan suddenly appeared in front of the camera. .
"ayodiesalemen."
"If you're ready, scream."
Under the close-up view of the camera, Chi Jingyuan pointed at the camera with a charming smile on his face, singing the lyrics while slowly approaching.
The dyed hair looked pure black at first glance, but under the light it revealed a very deep burgundy color. The bangs were neatly combed to the left, revealing most of the smooth forehead.
The curved smiling eyes make people involuntarily feel good about him. The gentle face that was originally very friendly now has a ruffian look, and the raised corners of the mouth seem to show the natural casualness of the owner.
The neatly marked black police officer's uniform looks particularly eye-catching on his tall and straight body, and his superior figure is clearly visible.
The picture is frozen. At this time, Chi Jingyuan is handsome and ruffian. He exudes a strong sense of youth against the serious and mature clothes. This conflicting and contradictory perception is perfectly blended in his body, bringing people Huge impact.
This appearance immediately gave the audience a powerful blow. The moment he appeared, countless people felt an indescribable sense of amazement. I don’t know how many viewers stared at the screen, with their mouths half open and unable to say a word.
Especially when Chi Jingyuan was getting closer and closer to the camera, squinting his eyes, tilting his head, and slightly raising his eyebrows at the camera, they had only one feeling... a glance for a thousand years.
"It's different from the other guys."
"Use my style."
"My, my, my, my most unique style, yeahOH!"
He walked in front of the camera, made some hip-hop gestures and sang his part. Finally, he patted his chest, snapped his fingers vigorously, and then turned his body to the side, giving the camera to Do Kyung-soo, who appeared next.
"This... this is really handsome. When he tilted his head and smiled, I really felt..."
Minazaki Saka felt that she was a little stunned by the scene where Chi Jingyuan appeared. She shook her head and communicated with the two friends next to her to seek some recognition.
But the two people next to her ignored her. Hirai Momo glanced at her and put her hand on her lips to shush her, while Nai Minami stared at the screen of her phone as if she hadn't heard anything. .
Obviously I could hear them talking just now...
"Hmph..." It didn't feel good to be ignored, so she took the initiative to touch someone else's shoulder, putting her head on someone else's shoulder and looking down.
"Every day when I work all night"
"You hang out in nightclubs, yeah."
"Don't be surprised, it's fine, every day!"
"igotafelligotafell."
As the part ended, the camera gradually zoomed out, and the six members of EXO-K ran out from the left and right sides and took up their positions in the center of the stage.
"I'm so awesome!"
Everyone sang in harmony and began to enter the first chorus and group dance.
The unique saxophone accompaniment is very rare, and the very distinctive melody, combined with the deliberately funny movements of the six people in the group dance, pretending to fall, seemed to transform the serious stage into a casual and comfortable hip-hop playground.
The audience focused on the stage and seemed to be infected by this relaxed atmosphere. Their bodies began to sway gently to the saxophone involuntarily.
“target="_bnk">://>
Next came two long sections of rap. After Park Chanyeol, who was wearing a racer costume, Chi Kyung-won performed his first stage rap performance.
"OK, from head to toe, we are absolutely stunning."
“It’s a long shift working during the day, absolutely.”
"…………"
"We devote our youth to work and move towards success step by step..."
"Girls, scream louder, scream!"
"We are absolutely amazing!"
He stood alone in front of the camera, pointing at himself and at the camera, doing the postures he should have when rapping. From time to time he frowned expressively, and his smart but not exaggerated body language showed that he was very unique. With his mature typhoon characteristics, one would never imagine that he was pushed from the shelves to take on the role of rapper.
With strong rhythmic rap, clear vocals and just right rhymes, coupled with interesting and ironic lyrics, Chi Jingyuan focused everyone's attention on himself like a black hole.
After singing this rap, he moved to the side of the camera, leaving the stage to the other members. Next came Kim Junmyeon and Oh Sehun's separate part.
Chi Jingyuan squatted half-crouched on the left side of the stage, with one hand on the floor and the other on his knees. She was a little out of breath due to the intense dance, and her mouth was slightly opened and she was breathing lightly.
The light shines straight down from the top of the head, blocked by bangs and hair, and prints a slightly messy shadow on the cheek. The eyes in the shadow appear deeper. At the same time, sweat beads are obviously floating on the forehead, and slowly flowing along the ends of the hair. It swayed down and dripped gently on the stage.
Because he had recorded several times in a row and was physically exhausted, his neck and side face were already soaked with sweat and were somewhat reflective.
At this time, Chi Jingyuan raised his head slightly and looked to the right side of the stage. Park Chanyeol, who was also squatting there, also raised his head tacitly. The two of them looked at each other. They both found each other interesting and smiled knowingly, then lowered their heads again. head to go.
On the TV screen at this time is Oh Se-hun who is performing a solo part. Ji Kyung-won and Park Chan-yeol are not visible. The official camera will only frame the shot based on the image sent in advance. At this time, it will only focus on Position C will not take pictures of other members squatting next to you.
But the SM staff who were following them with their DVs and mobile phones below took pictures of all the scenes that would never be shown in official footage.
After a period of dancing in unison, it was followed by the second verse of the verse. The members changed positions one by one, and everyone performed in the C position.
Each wears the uniforms of different professions, police officer, doctor, white-collar worker, car driver, detective, security guard. Six completely different styles of clothing come together to make people feel strange but inexplicably harmonious.
There are several members whose costumes are particularly suitable for them. The first among them is Ji Jingyuan's police officer suit. Even if he is not standing in the C position, as long as he appears in front of the camera, people can't help but stare at him. He sees.
"That's the XO style."
"Unlike those weird people who lie."
“Working hard every day.”
"IgottamakeitIgottamakeit."
"I'm absolutely amazing!"
It was Chi Jingyuan's part again. He turned around from the right and came to the camera. He jumped a few steps and hooked his hand at the camera. The other members approached him. He stood in the C position and sang a high note and watched. The camera zooms out to the end of the song, the last part of the dance.
The perfect coordination of the saxophone and drums, coupled with the handsome, neat but slightly absurd and comical choreography, pushed the atmosphere of the entire stage to the final high point.
"saywhat."
"saywowo."
"saywhat."
"Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely!"
Along with the last accompaniment, the six members of Team K shook their shoulders and heads from side to side. At the end of the music, they turned their backs to the camera. They stretched out their right hands and put them on the right side of their heads to give a thumbs up, posing the Ending pose. .
The stage officially ended, and the screen switched to the MC side.
Therefore, the official camera did not capture it. After Emding ended, Chi Jingyuan, who had his back to the stage, changed his right hand and gestured with his thumb, making an impromptu movement very casually. He stretched out his index finger and tapped his head twice, then shook his hand easily.
Then several members turned around, looked at each other, and chuckled together.
Just because the pre-recorded video has ended, this kind of small action will not be broadcast during the live broadcast.
At this time, Team K was standing in the "m!" c" On the stage, watching the pre-recorded video on the big screen, I also played Ending.
Harsh screams and cheers came from below. The audience seemed to be affected by the pre-recorded stage. The atmosphere in the entire venue was warm and wanton. They looked at EXO who was taking a bow on the stage. He waved the name tag and ribbon in his hands vigorously, wanting to express his excitement and joy at this time.
Even though the name brand may not be EXO's name, no one cares at this time.
"Kangsangmita."
At this time, the idols for the next performance were already waiting nearby. The six members of the K team saluted and waved, and then left the stage. They did not participate in the one-person selection for a while. The most important work today has been completed. Everyone took a breath of relief.
When they returned to the backstage, they met Apink, who was walking towards him and was preparing to wait for the performance. The other person was one of today's alternates, and the performance stage was at the end of the show.
The two groups of idols lined up in two rows and walked past each other, saluting each other and saying hello. Chi Jingyuan and Zheng Eunji glanced at each other, and at the same time made a "wonderful" mouth shape with their mouths, looked at each other, smiled, and nodded. He passed without saying a word.
I feel like this word has the potential to become a hot word recently.
After returning to the lounge for a while, he was called to the stage by the staff to prepare for an award ceremony.
Although exo-k did not participate in one of the selections, they still had to stand up for a while to give the award at the end. After all, people also valued their comeback so much.
Today’s issue of “m! c》Due to the impact of the previous incident, there were only a few groups of artists participating, and there were also many solo artists. At the last moment of awarding, everyone stood on the stage. Including Team K, there were only about twenty people. You must know that just There are twelve people in Team K and Apink.
The entire stage was sparse and looked a bit desolate, which seemed to indicate that the entertainment industry on the peninsula has not yet fully recovered.
As expected, the last place went to Apink. They defeated senior Li Xianji and won the first place trophy this time.
Li Xianhui is in her fifties this year. She has high connections and status in the industry. She is also the teacher of Li Shengji, a popular artist today. This year marks the 30th anniversary of her debut, and she released a commemorative album to mark her debut, but it was just a commemoration and she was too lazy to come to the singing stage.
"I feel sorry and guilty even for sharing one's joy..."
Because the matter was not over yet, Park Chorong was very cautious and apologized first when giving his acceptance speech. The other members were not overly excited and just smiled softly.
After the speeches were finished, the others bowed to each other and left. Chi Jingyuan had just turned around to leave. Sun Naen, who was standing not far away, holding the trophy, inadvertently turned her head, and her eyes suddenly met.
"Congratulations."
Chi Jingyuan smiled and nodded.
"..." Sun Naen pursed her lips and smiled sweetly, staring at him with dazzling eyes.
Without saying much, Chi Jingyuan greeted Zheng Eunji again and then left the stage behind the members. Apink's encore music soon came from behind.
"I don't know what's going on with Team M. The stage should be ready."
Back in the lounge, the members were packing their things and preparing to leave, chatting easily.
"Their stage was also recorded in advance, and it should have been broadcast at this time... There must be nothing wrong with Team M. They are already very popular in Xia Country, and the competition there is not very fierce. Do you think BTS has become a success after being active for several months?"
Park Chanyeol straightened his hair in the mirror and expressed his opinions in a casual tone.
"During the pre-recording just now, the guys under the stage who have been staring at us for filming were arranged by the company, right?" Do Kyung-soo remembered it at this time and asked.
"Yes, I asked Brother Chenghuan just now. He is the staff member arranged by the company to take direct shots for us." Jin Junmian nodded.
"Hey Yigu, it seems useless to shoot this thing directly. No one will see it if it is posted on YouTube. Even fans may not go to see it... It is better to prepare more stages and promote it more." Kai Xiao heard this The little one complained.
When their chat was in full swing, the door to the lounge was pushed open, and Li Chenghuan walked in, clapped his hands and began to explain:
"Children, hurry up and pack up. There will be interviews and pictorial shoots later. After that, we'll go have dinner."
"After dinner, go back to the company for a meeting."
"Stop playing, hurry up..."
"Arathor..."
…………
The MV and sound source of exo's prelude song have already caused some controversy since they were released at noon. After the only stage performance of "dope" in the evening, it aroused considerable discussion among fans and passers-by.
"I've been looking forward to it for a long time but was a little disappointed after listening to it. I really don't think this song sounds good. It's far worse than "Pao Xiao"."
"Sisters, please watch the MV. Dance music must be watched with the MV or the stage. This MV was shot very well and is really unique. Several oppas are very handsome. I sent you the link privately."
"I feel like "dope" doesn't feel like EXO's style. It's a bit of a change compared to the last comeback."
"What does the last comeback refer to? "Miracle in December"? Isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to compare a dance song with a lyrical song..."
"XO has just debuted for two years, so they must try different styles."
"Except for those sexy girl groups, which idols always have the same style? And what do you think EXO's style is like? Do they have a fixed style since their debut?"
"Emm... he must be handsome."
"Aren't the MV for "dope" and this stage cool enough?"
"…………"
Various comments began to flood the website forums and fanclubs. There were both likes and dislikes. It cannot be said to be a mixed bag. After all, in terms of quantity, the majority were liked.
The last time "Miracle in December" was an incomplete comeback, and it was mainly composed of ballads. Many fans did not regard the winter special as a normal comeback, so they regarded EXO's comeback as the same as their regular first album. Compared to.
But in fact, in terms of audience coverage and praise, it is obviously worse than "Paoxiao".
But then again, in recent years, not to mention the prelude songs of boy bands, even if they have all the title songs, there are few that can compare with "Pao Xiao".
But whether you like it or not, the popularity is already rising, and SM likes to see this. And today is only the first day of release. The specific results of the preview song "dope" will depend on the development in the next few days.
