Chapter Thirty-Eight: Signing and News

    

s side and briefly explained the situation.Whether what he said was objective or not wasn't important, and Chi Jingyuan didn't care."Ace, you guys...," The manager heard this and immediately rushed ov..., the Peninsula Asteroid

I announce EXO is the new generation group, there shouldn't be any dispute, right

"Be a little humble, it's still lacking in some aspects, both the audio and YouTube are shortfalls, but on the track there is truly no opponent."

"I really love the style of this comeback, it's more mature than before. The heavy makeup looks are so cool on everyone, it's totally my cup of tea."

"New to this fandom, yuan is really good, I was instantly captivated after watching the stage from 《eedu》.

"

"Give a simple review, this title song "overdose" condenses the essence of the previous title songs. It has the high-end atmosphere of "aa"'s singing, the repeated drum beat and high and low vocals of "history," the electric dub and structure of "wolf," and the background sound coverage and rap of "咆孝". Among all the title songs of Kpop male groups, it is considered to be of very high quality. This time, s really put a lot of effort into it."

"I think this title track is slightly worse than "Roar," both in terms of melody's popularity and the addictiveness of the chorus. It's easy to imagine that the aftertaste of "Overdose"'s sound source won't be as strong as "Roar." However, the B-sides on this mini album are really great value for money. Both "eedu" and "dope" are songs with title track quality, and I even prefer "eedu" to the title track. It's just a pity that there isn't a music video for this song."

“Me too, this song is still yuan's original composition. Every song gets better and better to my taste. Yuan is truly my god!”

"The other tracks are also great, like 'run' and 'thunde', which are very distinctive."

“Same as above, compared to the main track 《overdose》, I prefer 《eedu》 more. Although this song doesn't have a music video, when I listen to it, I feel like I see myself in the past, the kind of grievances I had, and the confusion during my youth. The production is really well done, and the choreography goes without saying, it's yuan's choreography again, just like 《dope》. s must have gotten favor from ancestors to get yuan in.”

"Since their debut, I've been a fan. This comeback was so amazing, seeing them get so close to the top really makes me happy. I'm touched and relieved. There are so many things I want to say to them but I don't know how to start. After thinking about it, I think I'll use lyrics from [eedu] to express myself:"

The sky is so blue, and the sun shines so brightly, that my tears are so clearly visible.

Why did I fall in love with you, why must it be you, why can't I leave you.

ps. I'm also a fan of Yuan, there's really no way to describe it, the lyrics touched my heart.

“…………”

EXO's comeback became a major trend in just one day, and fans expressed their excitement and joy freely.

The data from the first day was already enough to let everyone breathe a sigh of relief. The successful return of the mini second album continued last year's heat, proving that XO wasn't a flash in the pan, but instead took them to another level.

Faced with these impressive results, even the considerable number of black fans previously present couldn't help but fall silent, strategically retreating and seeking an opportunity for a rematch. They even found themselves unable to utter any harsh words.

Because when they say it out loud, they themselves find it quite embarrassing.

In a few days, when your sound source's aftertaste is weak, we will jump out.

Just wait.

…………

After finishing the recording of their stage for "Music Bank" on the 16th, XO didn't even have a moment to rest. Their assistant had already bought them food which they ate in the van. They hurried to New Village's Modern Department Store to make it to the signing event scheduled for eight o'clock that evening.

Exo's fame has reached its peak, even for non-public signing events requiring a lottery to obtain a spot, attracting a large number of people without tickets and fans who come to watch.

When they got out of the van, there was still a crowd watching as usual, but the fans managed to control their emotions and weren't too excited. They actively made way for them to enter, just constantly shouting their idol's name on both sides.

Waving to the side non-stop, Chi Jingyuan followed the members into the signing back stage. After a simple preparation, it was time.

EXO's signing events have been held countless times, and the process is already very familiar. They simply performed a short program, chatted for a bit, and then moved on to the autograph session.

When he first debuted, Ji Jingyuan really disliked events like fan signings because there were hardly any people, which made them very awkward. Facing the small number of fans, they still had to maintain a business-like smile and couldn't show any dissatisfaction or dejection.

But after he became popular, he really enjoyed these activities. The main reason was that he could interact with fans from all walks of life and feel their support up close.

At every meet-and-greet event, the company also reserves some front-row seats for fans and frontline supporters to film on-site footage. This footage is then uploaded to the website for promotion.

"Prince yuan..."

A young girl, who didn't look much older than a teenager, walked up to Chi Jingyuan. Her face was filled with excitement, yet also a hint of nervousness and apprehension. She spoke softly, her voice quieting Chi Jingyuan instantly.

This moment, Chi Jingyuan is wearing a light gray white hoodie with Pikachu ears that a fan just gave him on his head. He looks so cute and handsome!

It's no secret that he likes anime like Pokemon. Fans often bring him small anime accessories at fan signings, and Chi Jingyuan usually doesn't refuse. He always puts on a good face and wears them for a while.

"Anihaseyo... Prince" Ji Jingyuan was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and took her album, repeating.

"Anihaseyo, ne. I feel like this name suits me particularly well..." The female diner nodded, then opened her mouth as if to say something but seemed to have forgotten her prepared words and burst into tears: "That, that...ah, I've forgotten what I wanted to say, u-u-u..."

"Don't worry, what's your name" Chi Jingyuan quickly wrote his name on the album with an oil pen, then looked up and smiled at the other person.

This kind of meal he often sees, before meeting his idol he thought about what to say for a long time, but when they met, all the excitement made him forget everything.

It's pretty cute.

"Lee Eun Hee... Oh right, oppa, I went to get bangs cut this afternoon so I'd look younger when I see you."

"Eun Hee, aren't you a young adult already How old are you" Chi Kyung-won took in the girl who looked like she was still in high school.

I am seventeen years old.

"Oh, you're already so young, how do you want to be even younger" Ji Jingyuan grinned, looking at Li Eun-hee's carefully trimmed bangs: "Do you want to be ten years old"

"I just want to be younger, after all, I have to be worthy of oppa…"

Lee Eun Hee looks like a good student, her eyes fixed on Ji Kyeong Won without blinking: "Oppa, I really super like you, kiddo kidding slandering hey..."

"Me too."

Chi Jingyuan nodded, gazing into her eyes. Facing fans, he would never be stingy with words that could bring them joy.

"I've always wanted to come to a fan signing event to see oppa, and I got up this morning..."

Lee Eun-hee rambled on for a while, and then suddenly remembered something, she looked at Ji-yeong tentatively: "By the way, oppa, can you do that with me"

"What"

"Want to sing a little bit of 'So' with me"

"But it's an 'Overdose' signing event now…" Ji Jingyuan smacked his lips, then looked at the other person's gaze and immediately laughed, nodding: "Which part do you want to sing"

Lee Eun-hee seemed to have prepared beforehand, she blinked and quickly hummed out, "Like lovers, not lovers..."

"It's like you're my lover, only looking at me…" Ki Seong quickly followed up, his soft voice harmonizing with Lee Eun-hee and singing a verse together.

Before she could even sing two lines, the other person got really excited and couldn't control themselves. Feeling Ji Jingyuan's gaze, she covered her face with both hands and kept saying "Oh my god, Oh my god".

"I'm so nervous, my hands were shaking just now, ahh I don't want to go away...," Li Enxi slumped on the signing table, feeling hot all over.

"Jingyuan Prince ni…" She suddenly raised her head, looking expectantly at Ji Jingyuan: "Can you call me Princess Eun-hee"

Ji Jingyuan pursed his lips and met her gaze, tilting his head in a nod: "Yes, Princess Nehini."

The over-the-top dialogue, though cheesy, brought immense satisfaction to Lee Eun Hee. Her mind felt light as a feather, floating on clouds. She grinned foolishly, radiating pure happiness. The other fans listening couldn't help but gaze at her with envious eyes.

"Oh..."

Lee Eun-hee's signing time was up, and as she was about to leave, she looked at Ji Chang-wook, raised her fist, and said in a soft voice but with an unusually firm tone:

"Oppa, I will always support you."

Chi Jingyuan nodded and smiled at her, taking the initiative to wave goodbye.

"Goodbye, Kang Sang-mi. See you later. Go back home safely."

…………

By the time the signing was over, it was past eleven. Afterwards, they got back in the car and drove to BC to record a radio program. They didn't finish until two or three in the morning.

"Oh, I'm so tired..."

Having taken the nanny car, the six members were now rather exhausted, slumping against their seats in a haphazard manner and wishing they could just close their eyes and fall asleep.

Kim Jun-myeon also had a rather poetic sentiment, saying:

"This is what it means to return..."

"I'm a little hungry. Anyone up for some late-night snacks" Ji Jingyuan leaned back and suddenly felt his stomach rumbling. He opened his eyes and turned to ask.

"Isn't it late, you shouldn't be worried about your figure"

"I'm a naturally thin person, I just don't eat anything special every day." Ji Jingyuan flicked his bangs with some pride.

Because the idol looks plumper on camera, she's actually very strict about her body management. Her manager often supervises her and weighs her every few days to check if she has gained weight.

It's not just for already debuted idols, it extends to trainees as well. Figure also belongs to appearance, and is one of the core competitive advantages for idols.

Ji Jingyuan, by nature, enjoys good food and has a physique that benefits greatly from it. This is especially apparent when he sees certain members struggling to manage their weight, having to forgo delicious meals while relentlessly hitting the gym.

Lifting iron is fine, he often goes to the gym to work out and keep in shape, but if he can't eat, he'll be in serious trouble.

"I'm a little hungry, what are we having" Wu Shixun also rubbed his stomach and raised his hand to indicate that he wanted to participate too.

"Grilled sausages Pork belly Or hamburgers"

"It's so late, let's just have something simple."

Then fish cake Or stir-fried rice cakes

"...nor anything more minimalist..."

While they were discussing, they chatted with the TV crew for a bit, causing Lee Seung-hwan, who arrived last, to sit in the passenger seat. He turned around and shouted loudly:

Children, don't sleep yet.

The voice was loud, and several members who had their eyes closed quickly opened them, shaking their heads as they looked at him.

"That's the end of today's itinerary. Let's get up early tomorrow morning to continue in BC... Tomorrow... It's past midnight, so that means today is the 17th. Jingyuan, you're going to the anniversary performance at Yan Shi University, right"

"Yes, brother."

"So, you probably won't be able to make it back for the afternoon and evening activities. That means we need to get to BC early this morning and record the stage for "Music Center" ahead of time. This time, we haven't prepared a 5-person dance."

Taking out his notebook and flipping a page, Lee Seung-hwan continued,

"Tonight, there's still a radio show. Jingyuan, remember to come back quickly after your school celebration ends... Tomorrow, besides the music show 'Inkigayo', there's also a recording of 'Golden Fishery Radio Star' in the evening. It's estimated that you'll be busy until very late that day."

"Golden Fishing Pond" Kim Jun-myeon hesitated for a moment when he heard the name of the variety show, and asked in a questioning tone, "Brother, is this program suitable for us Isn't it a bit..."

《Golden Fishing Ground: Radio Star》 is a variety show similar to a radio broadcast produced by MBC. The program focuses on the visible "radio."

Because the host's remarks in the program are sharp and the questions asked are rather direct, with a slightly risqué undertone. They often ask guests some questions that are not convenient to answer directly, so while the ratings are good, the topic is also very hot.

For many idols, some questions that are difficult to speak up about are not very appropriate.

“Because the focus will soon be shifted to the concert, this comeback period is not long, and there isn't much time for promotion, so we need some high-heat variety shows to make up for it. Golden Fishery is quite suitable, and fans are definitely looking forward to seeing them on this show.”

Although we might be asked some rather direct questions, we'll have gone over the script beforehand. The company will also coordinate with the program team, and they're very welcoming to our participation because, after all, our popularity is undeniable… Plus, Key isn't leading as a center right now, so you can rest assured.

Hearing the name "Golden Bathtub", Ji Jingyuan couldn't help but smack his lips. He was very familiar with this variety show and had always enjoyed watching it, especially the "Love Era Special" last month featuring younger stars.

At that time, those several sisters in the screen heard all kinds of awkward and direct love questions, the business smile on their faces was almost stiff. Looking at this scene, Ji Jingyuan laughed happily, he couldn't contain his joy. It seems that even if they don't want to, they have to go on this show now.

"There are two signing events for both 18th and 19th, then..."

Lee Seonghwan looked at the notebook and gave them a brief introduction to their itinerary for the past few days. Hearing this, one couldn't help but sigh like Kim Junmyeon, 'This is what a comeback feels like.'

"Alright, go back and get some rest. You'll need to wake up early tomorrow."

Li Chenghuan clapped his hands and comforted him with a sentence before turning away.

"What about dinner later" Woo Shi-hun's head popped up from the back row, leaning in close to Ji Kyeong-won's ear and whispering.

Chi Jingyuan cocked his head and raised an eyebrow at him.

>

"Let's talk later."

…………

They were told to wake up early, and sure enough, they were woken up by their manager just before dawn. From the moment they closed their eyes until now, Pool Jingyuan and the others had only slept for a solid three hours.

Actually, it wasn't supposed to be this early. But because he had something to do in the afternoon, he had to go to the studio for a stage recording earlier in the morning. Not only could he not sleep himself, but he also dragged everyone else to wake up early.

We're having guests over for dinner again.

After arriving in BC, DY, who had joined the team, quickly finished her styling and started recording. Today, even the stage for 《eedu》 was recorded in advance. For the first week's comeback, the K-team will be performing two songs on all the music shows.

As for the other interview segments, whether Chi Jingyuan was present or not didn't matter. After recording was complete, he quickly said hello to the members and left in his car to go back to school.

May is a special and anticipated month for college students on the peninsula, as universities there have a tradition of holding anniversary celebrations. During this time, major colleges and universities host grand celebrations with diverse and lively events.

Of course, not all schools were founded in May, and the general school anniversary of Peninsula University is not held on its founding day.

School anniversary celebrations typically last for three days. The first two days are mainly student-oriented activities, such as different departments setting up stalls in the campus to cook food, having parties with drinks and singing at night to celebrate. On the third day, there will be a small stage where various clubs perform their recruitment shows and some sports competitions like baseball and basketball are held.

The grand finale on the third day is definitely more elaborate. Many schools will invite popular artists and idols, as well as singers, to perform live at school. They'll also have professional MCs to host the event, making it feel like a real concert.

Yenching University's anniversary celebration started on the 15th, and today is the 17th, which is the most important day for the artist performances.

Because college students are a fan base of idols themselves, coupled with the factors related to universities, artists are generally very willing to perform at school celebrations, and the performance fees are usually not high.

Furthermore, because many idols are graduates of this school, or even current students, they are very willing to come to the school to perform for their juniors and seniors. Such artists are generally also welcomed widely.

For example, there's Ji Jingyuan. He entered university in 2012, but took a year off due to his debut. So today, he is already a sophomore. This information has been mentioned many times on variety shows before, and his fans have proudly brought it up countless times.

Many people at school know that Chi Jingyuan studies at Yen Shang and is in the new village district of Seoul, but because he is rarely seen, few have actually met him.

Although he was still a senior or junior from the same school, when many students saw Ji Jingyuan standing on stage at night, they felt a special sense of familiarity. Instinctively, they differentiated Ji Jingyuan from other performing idols.

Moreover, XO has been the hottest trend recently. His popularity and fame are unmatched by other idols.

Because he was alone, he couldn't perform EXO's popular hits, so he only sang two songs from his previous albums. Even so, he received the most support and cheers since the start of the performance.

Compared to junior and senior high school students, the proportion of college students who chase stars has decreased significantly, and they are also more rational.

But it's impossible to see now because the students in the audience watching Chi Jingyuan get on stage are all getting excited, with screams going back and forth.

"Chí Jǐngyuán! Chí Jǐngyuán!"

"Chi Jingyuan! Chi Jingyuan!"

Unlike meals, classmates call him by his real name instead of his stage name.

> Particularly some senior and junior female students, perhaps because they feel closer to Park Ji-won as a classmate, their level of fanaticism is no less than that of true fans.

After the standard bow and thanks, Chi Jingyuan walked off the stage to applause. He greeted the school staff backstage, then went to chat with his teachers and professors who had always taken care of him. After a few words, he got into the nanny car and left the school.

Many faculty members actually know about Chi Jingyuan's special treatment. Although his grades weren't particularly good, he managed to barely meet the standards. Additionally, Chi Jingyuan is very polite and has a good personal bearing, which easily makes people feel favorably towards him. Coupled with some hidden advantages, most faculty members have a fairly positive impression of Chi Jingyuan, and no one outwardly criticizes him.

I just got off the phone with Lee Seung-hwan, xo just finished a schedule and is on his way to SBS now. He told Ji Sung to go straight there too and meet up. They have a radio show later this afternoon.

Wind and Moon of the Five Dynasties' Mountains and Rivers

The schedule for EXO is quite interesting. For several comebacks, their popularity has been very high and they've received many invitations to variety shows. However, their appearances on popular variety shows haven't been that frequent. Instead, they've appeared on one radio program after another.

However, this time because the return period is shorter, it requires more exposure and promotion, and I don't know if there will be any changes.

Sitting in the nanny car, Chi Jingyuan swiped through his phone and glanced at the recent news.

The SBS Monday-Tuesday drama "Doctor Stranger," which premiered at the beginning of May, entered its second week of broadcasting with a significant viewership increase of 12%. It holds a considerable lead over other dramas airing on major television networks during the same time slot and has also received favorable audience reviews.

Speaking of this drama, Ji Chang Wook received the script at the end of last year. At that time, "The Heirs" had just finished airing, and during that period, J company received countless film and television invitations for Ji Chang Wook. Besides Peninsula, there were many from Xia Guo as well.

Following the success of three consecutive hit dramas on SBS last year, 2014 saw a lull in ratings for major terrestrial broadcasters up until May. In contrast, jTBC's "Secret Meeting," aired in March, garnered significant attention and buzz online despite not being from a major network.

The music scene hasn't had much news recently, besides EXO's second mini-album having sold almost 80,000 copies as of right now, bringing the total sales close to a million. The only other news is some promotional material and teasers for F(x)'s upcoming second studio album "Season2" releasing next week.

Then, YG revealed that Big Bang member Taeyang's second solo regular album "RISE" will be released on June 3rd, with a total of nine tracks, and the title song is titled "Eyes Nose Lips."

It's clear that YG is very confident in Sun's solo this time, and of the soloists from BIGBANG before, GD and Taeyang were the most successful.

Although it's only half a month until June 3rd, EXO's promotional period for their new song should have ended by then. They will probably be in China for concerts and wouldn't clash with schedules anyway.

It's hard to say, both sides are returning around the same time. They're bound to clash when they meet up then.

Besides that, there haven't been any particularly explosive news recently. Since the previous events just passed not long ago, the Korean entertainment industry is still in a recovery phase, far from the excitement and momentum of the beginning of the year.

At this point, some sensational news would be needed. If there were any rumors of a member from a popular idol group dating in the near future, or if news broke about a couple’s relationship, it could certainly reignite the excitement in the K-Pop industry and bring it back to its peak. It would contribute to the overall development of the industry.

...Girls' Generation... Ji-sung remembers that Taeyeon shouldn't be dating recently, right...

First published on Traditional Chinese Novel Websitel.When Chi Jingyuan saw the text message, he reflexively wanted to send the words that popped into his head. But realizing this was an important event for the child's debut, he forcibly suppressed his...
