When he clearly saw the wry smile on his face after taking off his hood, countless viewers in front of the TV let out an exclamation of surprise.
Especially the Ariels who were watching, they had never associated "Gayo Festival" with their own oppas. Now after seeing Chi Jingyuan, they just felt an extremely excited sense of surprise, and they wanted to go directly to it. He leaned in front of the TV and took a closer look at the face of the person on the stage.
Even variety show fans like Cha Seung-won who are not interested in boy groups can't help but feel a little surprised. Although he doesn't like or pay much attention to boy groups, he also admits that EXO has an unparalleled position among boy groups. At the same time, We also know the popularity of top player Chi Jingyuan in the team.
Among the idols who often return to activities nowadays, Chi Jingyuan is already considered to be the one with the highest status. Seeing that the music festival can invite idols of this level, the level of the guests seems to have improved a lot. Variety show fans like him feel a little happy, and feel that this year's music festival is really interesting.
Even before the first episode was finished, many people had already decided to stick with future broadcasts after just looking at the guest lineup.
"Oh oh oh oh..."
"Hey Yigu! Is it really Yuan?"
"Jingyuan!"
Like the audience, the moment they saw Chi Jingyuan, even the MCs and guest judges who had been chatting with him for a while backstage immediately showed extremely surprised expressions and kept shouting in surprise. Little scream.
Like haha, Huang Guangxi and others even stood up, jumped out of their seats and danced. Huang Guangxi even shouted loudly: "Our program is finally saved, I have a chance to join SM!"
At the same time, after Chi Jingyuan took off his mask and the guests' rea appeared one after another, his introduction vcr was immediately inserted on the TV.
"The black shadow awakens within me... I eu-reu-re eu-reu-reong you."
“call me baby call me baby…call me baby call me baby”
"oh~~my~my~my~~oh~~my~my~my~"
In the past few years, several popular BGM songs by EXO have been played one after another. The shots of Chi Jingyuan in the music videos of several of the songs have been intercepted and edited to appear one after another. The handsome dance, appearance and catchy catchy words, some of the most popular ones. With the combination of this hot song, people can't help but feel a sense of boiling blood, and the performance suddenly rises.
While playing various familiar BGMs and close-ups of various shots, the camera switches and interviews with senior musicians Yoon Jong Shin and Yoo Hee Yeol who serve as special judges on their opinions on Ji Kyung Won and EXO will also appear in the lower left corner of the screen:
"Ah, qinjia, it's so popular, there's really no one who doesn't know EXO now. You can meet their fans and hear their songs anywhere in Seoul or even the entire peninsula."
Yoon Jong-shin looked at the camera with some emotion, and his bright little eyes under the round glasses were taken for granted: "I'm really surprised. Yuan, to be honest, has transcended the category of boy groups now, and is unparalleled in the current music industry. There is no problem in comparing the existence of the impossible to Kim Taeho PD..."
"It can be said that now, he represents popularity." After making a joke, Yin Zhongxin's expression became more serious, and he did not feel that there was anything excessive in boasting.
"Generally speaking, when it comes to idols, there is no fixed standard. Sometimes people think that idols are trained through systematic training."
As the screen changed, Yoo Hee Yeol's interview also followed: "But Yuan's appearance really feels like he has redefined the word idol, making people who had no standards before suddenly think, 'Wow, idol should be him. It's like that, there's really nothing to say..."
"In addition to his job as an idol, he has also been working on his own music, such as "Pao Xiao" and "Boy with Luv". These need not be described in detail. They have become a model for industry research. My relatives' children Songs that can be sung casually. He really managed to maintain people's love while also making very good musical achievements."
Several special judges each blew an exaggerated rainbow fart, which directly made Chi Jingyuan so embarrassed that he himself was embarrassed, and also aroused the emotions of the audience.
"Why are you all standing up?"
On the stage, Yoo Jae-seok stood up from his stool when he saw the back of the judges' bench, and formed a neat row, haha. Huang Guangxi, the MC of "Infinite Challenge", couldn't help laughing immediately, and then hated him. He pointed at them with irony and said: "Ah, do you want this? Even if we are exo, we won't be like this, right? We are "Infinite Challenge"!"
"Brother, even if we are "Infinite Challenge"...but he is Yuan." Haha spread his hands innocently, as if he didn't think there was anything wrong with what they did.
Liu Zaishi was immediately shocked and speechless.
"Hahaha..." Chi Jingyuan burst out laughing. He couldn't bear the exaggerated MCs, so he waved his hands and saluted quickly.
"Xo is so busy now, does he really have time to attend the music festival?" Yoo Hee-yeol frowned and asked curiously: "Last time I sent an invitation to SM and wanted xo to be a guest, but he was declined directly. .”
"Are you doing the same? So am I!" Upon hearing this, Yin Zhongxin immediately nodded and clapped his hands in agreement.
Both of them have worked as MCs for more than one variety show, and they are more famous such as "Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook" and "Golden Fishing Ground".
"Hmm... Maybe it was because of the schedule that the company unfortunately didn't accept it." Chi Jingyuan hesitated, then took the microphone and reluctantly explained.
But just after he finished speaking, Liu Zaishi next to him immediately broke the news: "I remember that our "Infinite Challenge" didn't seem to be finalized at the beginning, right?"
"Forehead……"
Chi Jingyuan, who felt exposed, hesitated for a moment, sighed, held it in for a while, and couldn't help but laugh helplessly: "Okay, actually I wanted to come."
】
"Hahaha……"
All the guests laughed. Yoo Hee Yeol and Yoon Jong Shin looked at each other and sighed in defeat, while Yoo Jae Suk and the MCs behind them laughed loudly. The sisters behind them even high-fived each other and shouted "Infinite Challenge"
Seeing that Chi Jingyuan's appearance directly raised the atmosphere to a high level, Liu Zaishi struck while the iron was hot and looked at iu and asked: "iu xi, did you seem to recognize that it was yuan just now?"
"Inside." Iu, who was sitting in the first row, nodded, blinked and looked at Chi Jingyuan: "Although he specially disguised his vocals, the tone inside is still very familiar. I have always liked xo's I’ve heard the song many times, so I thought it should be him.”
"How do you feel when you find out it's really Jingyuan?"
"Well..." iu paused for a second and then laughed: "I feel like I came to the right place."
"Oh..." Everyone cheered and applauded.
"What about Wu Hyuk, how do you feel?" Liu Zaishi smiled and looked at the band's lead singer Wu Hyuk, who had never said a word.
"Well, uh, oh, I..."
Wu Hyuk, who seemed extremely inarticulate in front of the variety show, held the microphone in front of his mouth and hummed for several seconds before he honestly expressed his inner thoughts: "Well, it's really interesting... But, I was wondering if I should come here at all.”
Haha immediately interrupted: "Then let's go!"
"Ha ha ha ha."
"Ah, how can you say that?" After the laughter, everyone began to accuse Haha, and Haha immediately made a joking apology.
After Chi Kyung-won appeared, Yoo Jae-seok asked almost every MC what they thought, and the camera also gave a lot of rea at the right time. Many viewers liked watching this, but it was interesting to them and they were looking forward to the next step. When they were quickly grouped, the first episode of the program came to an abrupt end, leaving the biggest suspense in the later episodes.
"Yeah, Yixi..."
When he saw the advertisement at the end, Cha Chengyuan, who was in high spirits, couldn't help but curse. He sat there watching the advertisement and the preview of the next issue, always feeling like he still had something to say.
After a few minutes, he couldn't help but feel the desire to discuss this episode. He took out his mobile phone and started surfing the Internet, browsing the official account of "Infinite Challenge" and several frequently visited forums.
Sure enough, less than ten minutes after the end of the first period of the "Gayo Festival", the discussion here was already in full swing.
"Wow, the guest lineup of this year's "Gayo Festival" is really great. There are niche but very powerful He Hyukoh, Park Jin Young and Yoon Sang who represent seniority and qualifications. As for Iu and Yuan, I think they should be more powerful. It’s both popular and popular, so this lineup is really exciting.”
"Ah ah ah, I have always fantasized about Yuan's last variety show like "Gayo Festival", and I have fantasized about it for a long time. Before it started, I even hoped that there would be him this year, but I didn't take it seriously. After all, xo is too busy. It’s not like he has the personality to fall in love with variety shows, I really didn’t expect...ahhh, he will insist on airing every issue from now on!"
"I didn't expect Chi Jingyuan and Iu to come. I feel like the popularity of the entire show has increased by more than one level since these two people came. How did the show team invite these two people?"
"How should we group them? If Park Myung-soo is not around, two guests will be grouped together. I really want to see Yuan and Iu working together, and I want to see what kind of sparks these two people can create, but these two people are so different." If they are divided into groups, will the overall balance be a bit unbalanced? I am not talking about strength, but popularity. If they are divided into a group, the audience will probably not want to look at others..."
"Who said it, I just like watching jyp!"
In a short period of time, hundreds of rumors spread. Obviously, the first episode of the Gayo Festival was very topical, making the audience who had just watched the broadcast very eager and enthusiastic to discuss it.
This is still the case when the popularity has not spread, and many fans of IU and Chi Jingyuan do not know that they are participating in the show.
As the discussion and popularity on the Internet continued to brew and increase, Ji Kyung-won also got on the plane with Do Kyung-soo the next day, rushed to Tokyo to join the main force, and began to prepare for the next performance at the Tokyo Dome. The sm town family concert was held.
