Chapter 25: Rainbow
g at him for a few moments, suddenly realized who he was and told their friends, "Isn't this the male lead from Reply 1997"His recognition is quite high. Even people who aren't part of the male idol f...Now Chi Jingyuan's hair has completely changed.
Chi Jingyuan's hair is shorter than the other members', but he didn't get it cut any shorter this time. It's still the same length as before.
Her original black hair had been dyed a very pale blue-white, which was incredibly eye-catching at first glance. She pulled her short bangs down slightly, letting them fall in a somewhat disheveled manner across her forehead. They didn't block her view but rather served as decoration.
The hair on both sides of the temples abruptly ends at the ear, completely exposing the entire cheek and jawline.
The hair is fully processed and voluminous, even though it's not very long, it has a great sense of layering.
The most striking thing was his hair color. Besides being dyed a blue-white overall, there were patches of other colors around his head. The top of his head was dyed a light gold, and the ends of his sideburns and bangs were dyed a light pink.
So many colors mixed together, at first glance it looks like a rainbow after the rain.
"Nunna, is this outfit... a bit too much"
After a moment's hesitation, Chi Jingyuan asked.
"Annie, this hairstyle and hair color really suit you. Jingyuan, although your facial features are perfect, overall, you have a relatively soft appearance and lack some impact."
The stylist sister shook her head vigorously, then stared intently at Ji Jingyuan in the mirror, her eyes gleaming. In a tone as if evaluating a work of art, she said: "This rainbow hair completely makes up for that shortcoming. Although there are many colors, it is carefully designed and matched. This color scheme gives a strong impression at first glance, but it doesn't feel abrupt."
And we specially left you just a little fringe, without covering the advantages of your facial features.
"Jǐngyuán, this time your return style is really cool. I wonder how many of your fans will go crazy after it's exposed."
“…………”
Listening to the stylist's explanation, Ji Jingyuan looked at himself in the mirror and nodded in agreement.
This isn't his first time dyeing his hair. He sometimes dyes his hair temporarily for performances, but they are usually common and conventional colors.
And this time, he was first struck by the richness of his newly created rainbow hair color and didn't look closely.
As she said, although there are many colors, they blend together very harmoniously without feeling cluttered or jarring. It looks quite natural and doesn't overshadow the features.
A very striking hairstyle and a good-looking face complement each other, achieving a wonderful effect together. Overall, it gives off an unforgettable sense of handsomeness and strong youthful energy.
"Go in, Kang Sora-mi."
Ji Jingyuan nodded and thanked him. At this time, Wu Shixun walked over and glanced at him, and immediately exclaimed in surprise: "Aiya, Nuna, Jingyuan's hairstyle is a bit like mine, isn't it"
Wu Shi-hsuan had already finished his styling before this comeback. In the cover photo for this return, his hairstyle is also rainbow hair.
At this time, several members nearby also gathered around, seeing Ji Jingyuan's hairstyle after also revealing surprise, their eyes flashed with a glimmer.
"Ani oh, although they all look like rainbow hair at first glance, there are still big differences. Look closely."
The stylist sister immediately shook her head, pointing out their unprofessionalism: "Sehun's hairstyle has a relatively deep gold base color, and the dyed rainbow colors are also very intense. The colors used in combination with his long hair and thick bangs would make the impact even stronger."
"Jingyuan's hair has a base color of blue-white. The rainbow colors aren't as rich as Seohun's, and the dyed colors are also lighter, with a cooler tone. His hair length and fringe are shorter than before. While the impact is less forceful than Seohun's, it appears more natural and accentuates his temperament."
Ji Jingyuan glanced at himself in the mirror, then took a quick look at Wu Shixun and spoke directly to him: "Well, it is indeed different. Mine looks better than yours."
"What are you saying I'm obviously the prettier one."
Wu Shih-hsien immediately retorted, saying that he would never admit defeat in terms of appearance.
I think Jingyuan's looks more comfortable.
Members compared and gave some opinions.
"I also think so, I like lighter colors. Sehun's color is too dark, but it's still very nice."
“Nuna, I want to dye my hair this color too.”
“…………”
The ever-present manager then chimed in with a few words: “Jingyuan and Sehun's styling being somewhat similar is also arranged by the company. Because previously on variety shows or fan shoots, your two had the most interactions, which attracted quite a lot of attention. Plus, you two are the youngest members (maknae) of the group. This arrangement can generate some discussion.”
"Bro, the company wouldn't make us a CP, right" Ji Jingyuan frowned, glancing sideways at Wu Shixun with an unhappy expression. He clearly didn't want to.
"Of course not." The manager immediately denied.
"Oh, what kind of look is that Don't you think I want to" Wu Shixun glared at Ji Jingyuan and punched him directly.
Okay, okay, the set is ready over there. Get prepared, we're about to start shooting the cover photo shoot. Everyone, do your best!
"Come on, Fight!"
………………
The photoshoot progressed quickly, the members having debuted over a year ago and undergone numerous stages and camera exposures. The initial naivety has largely faded, and now standing back in front of the camera, they confidently showcase their charisma.
This time, the overall concept of the regular edition is based on Old School traditionalism and Yearbook commemorative albums, with a style similar to school graduation photos.
This concept is reflected in the album packaging, cover, and illustrations.
During the shoot, Ji-Won felt that ** company was truly putting a lot of effort into the image and concept design this time. He thought that this EXO album's concept with the 'school' theme was a big highlight, and the overall styling was a level up from the 'MAMA' era.
At least after getting used to his own rainbow hair, Ji Jingyuan thinks that his current hairstyle looks much better than it did during his debut period.
Members were all very satisfied with their new look. While working hard, they also spent a lot of time debating who was the second most handsome.
After finishing the shooting of the MV, they started filming a music video without stopping.
The MV will be shot in three versions: a Chinese version, a Korean version, and a plot version.
The first two were normal, it's just this plot version that makes Chi Jingyuan laugh.
Besides them EXO, the female lead is a trainee from the company, Yoon Soo Hee.
The story revolves around Luhan, who plays the lead role. It tells the tale of a superpower-wielding teenager named Luhan who escapes from somewhere and enters school to learn about life. There he meets EXO members who become his friends, falls in love with the female protagonist, gets into a rivalry with Kai, and eventually leads EXO to fight enemies to save the girl.
This plot and setting concept are very **. Ji Jingyuan really had to hold back a lot when filming to keep from laughing.
The other members didn't need to be mentioned, as soon as the camera turned on at the beginning of the shoot, they started laughing. I don't know how many NGs there were, but in the end, they got scolded and only then did they get back on track.

First released on the Traditional Chinese Novel Networkthe stage, he encountered several idol seniors watching from the sidelines. Apart from Crayon Pop, EXO was the youngest in terms of seniority. They lined up and bowed slightly to greet him, walking to...
