The opening instrumental ensemble, modern dance, hip-hop dance, and all the dances at the end are really exciting. They are all collaborations with popular idols such as EXO, Shinee, Twice, Blackpink, red velvet, and GOT7. They are displayed right from the beginning.
The 20th anniversary of this year's Gayo Daejeon was different from the excitement of previous years. The enthusiasm of the audience was immediately aroused, and the atmosphere was already very lively as soon as it started.
Judging from this opening alone, it was very successful. Even Chi Jingyuan, who has long been accustomed to watching idol performances, found his favorite highlight in it.
After the opening performance, the three MCs of today's Gayo Daejeon also walked out of the LED screen door side by side and stood in the middle of the stage.
"2016 SAF Gayo Daejeon with the most fragile producer on the peninsula, Kpop, A to Z, Aniha Seyo, I am MC Yoo Hee Yeol."
"Neianihasaiyo, yurimida~"
"Hello everyone, I'm Baekhyun from XO."
As several people introduced themselves, the entire audience burst into loud cheers and applause. Maybe it was because the name of the song battle was arousing people's expectations. At the same time, the opening dance was exciting and the atmosphere was so lively that it shook Chi Jingyuan's eardrums.
Somewhat deaf.
Just hearing their self-introductions, Chi Kyung-won clapped on the surface, but was a little amused in his heart... Baekhyun's self-introductions all included the prefix EXO, but Kwon Yuri directly said that she was Yuri.
You should know that even Yoona sunbaenim introduces herself as 'Girls' Generation Yoona' no matter where she is now.
Tsk tsk, doesn’t the gap between these souls appear?
The three hosts of the song battle are Yoo Hee Yeol, Kwon Yoo Ri and their EXO Byeon Baekhyun, a veteran MC and two idols. This partnership is considered to be a better match than the two in previous years. With the three of them standing in the middle of the stage, you can
We cooperate very well with each other.
...It’s just that when Kwon Yuri is wearing high heels, it’s a little embarrassing that the three hosts look about the same height.
Today’s 20th anniversary of the Gayo Daejeon has two main highlights. One is the collaboration stage organized by well-known producers from several companies such as Yoon Jong Shin, SM’s Yoo Yong Jin, YG’s Teddy, JYP’s Park Jin Young, etc.
It's the one that EXO, NCT and red velvet trained together before.
Secondly, the number of idol groups participating in the show is the largest ever. Many new boy groups and girl groups that debuted in the past year have appeared on the program list.
"The highly anticipated first stage, what kind of surprises have you prepared?"
"The new generation of Kpop idols who appear like comets, Music, Start!"
After a long series of announcements from the three hosts, the official performance session finally entered...the three MCs did not leave after the show, but walked to the artist booth and sat down next to EXO.
Chi Kyung-won smiled and waved to Kwon Yuri and Byun Baekhyun before cheering up and looking towards the stage.
Just looking at him, his expression was a little strange.
"Why are they all NCT?" He couldn't help but complain to the person next to him.
First it was NCT Dream, then NCT U. When Chi Jingyuan was a little tired, finally NCT 127 actually came up, and the entire NCT family came up to show their faces.
You must know that every inch of space in the Gayo Wars is precious. Many groups from small companies have no hope of showing their faces. It would be nice to have a multi-person collaboration stage with other people, but it is not like NCT, where the whole family is involved in a solo stage.
"We are SM!"
Wu Shixun shrugged, his tone was matter-of-fact, and he actually sounded like he had a sense of company honor.
SM's new generation boy group NCT adopts the 'infinite expansion' model that Lee Soo Man has been dreaming about. They finally debuted this year. They have three sub-units: Dream, U, and 127, which is more than the previous two teams of EXO and KM.
One, coupled with the setting of 'infinite expansion', the entire group's plan looks aggressive and ambitious.
It's a pity that Kpop's boy groups have already been divided up. EXO is the dominant one at the top, and there are countless popular boy groups fiercely competing for the remaining piece of cake. In the absence of a big hit song, even if the company has invested a lot
With resources, all stages and award ceremonies at the end of the year, and the company's seniors like Red Velvet and even EXO personally stepping in to help, NCT's development so far can only be said to be somewhat unsatisfactory.
However, with the SM brand on their bodies and the names of 'SJ, Girls' Generation, and EXO juniors', compared to other groups from small companies, NCT still has a great advantage... At this time, in Gaoyao
Sitting in rows during a battle is the best example.
Fortunately, after NCT 127, SM did not bring all three NCT sub-units together for a group photo. Blackpink finally made its debut after countless expectations.
YG's new girl group Blackpink, which debuted less than four months ago, is worthy of the title of monster newcomer. The two single albums since their debut are almost all hit songs except for "STAY", which is one of the double hits. The sound source has a good reputation.
And even though they debuted with the nickname of the "New Four Ugly", after getting familiar with it gradually, even Kuroko admitted that Blackpink is actually much better than the "Old Four Ugly" 2NE1 in terms of appearance, including Jisoo
Jennie's looks are now being praised by more and more people, and even Li Xia has a lot of loyal fans because of her figure.
Coupled with the support of YG and the idol qualities of each member, among all the new girl groups this year, Blackpink is the most eye-catching one.

"My love is on fire~"
After experiencing three consecutive tortures from NCT, a familiar and dynamic female voice suddenly came to his ears. Seeing the four girls with pretty good figures singing and dancing on the stage, Chi Jingyuan felt that his ears and eyes were clear, and he followed the music of "Playing with Fire"
He shook his legs slightly.
"Which one do you think is the prettiest?"
While looking at the stage, Wu Shixun suddenly asked.
He didn't say who it was, but Chi Jingyuan certainly knew that he was asking about Blackpink who was performing.
After he asked this question, Chi Jingyuan changed his mentality, from his eyes admiring the stage to his attitude of looking at the stage. After looking at it for a while, he confidently replied: "If we are just talking about today's makeup...Jisoo
."
Kim Ji-soo's style is really pretty today, with two bows tied on her braids. The style is quite to his liking.
"What about not just today?"
"Uh..." Chi Jingyuan thought for a while and shrugged: "That's still Jisoo."
Although Kim Ji-ni is liked by many people and is very popular, her appearance is more lovable, she is strong and has great stage charm, but in terms of face alone, Chi Kyung-yuan feels that anyone who looks at her thinks that Kim Ji-soo is the best among blackpink.
"What do you think of Rose?"
After talking for a long time, Wu Shixun finally asked what he wanted to ask the most,
"Well... I used to think it was just average, with no highlights."
Chi Jingyuan recalled it for a while and said impartially: "But after dyeing my hair blonde, I feel that my color has improved a lot, and I look quite beautiful today."
He has always been very confident in his own aesthetics and considers himself to be very objective in his comments.
...but not as good as Xiaonan.
After hiding some offensive words, Chi Jingyuan remembered that Wu Shixun seemed to have a good relationship with Park Caiying before, and they had chatted with Park Caiying several times in private. He immediately understood and raised his eyebrows and asked: "What? Do you have any ideas?
"
"A little bit."
Wu Shixun covered his mouth and whispered, and Chi Jingyuan had no intention of hiding anything: "We are still in contact... If necessary, remember to come and cover me..."
"No problem, you can call me when the time comes."
Chi Jingyuan immediately agreed with a pat on his chest. Wu Shixun had been his wingman countless times and provided cover many times. Of course he would have something in return.
"but……"
He thought about it and felt something was wrong: "Blackpink has only debuted for four months, can they fall in love now?"
Falling in love as soon as he debuted was a privilege only for a royal family like him. Even Nai Minami only established a relationship with him nearly a year after debuting... Four months is a bit too much.
"Other companies may have some problems..."
Wu Shixun covered his mouth and lightly shrugged, raising an eyebrow at him: "But... YG is different."
Chi Jingyuan paused for a moment after hearing the words, then raised his brows and understood in seconds.
As he spoke, he shook his legs slightly and continued to look at the blackpink stage, but his eyes were a little more playful than before.
I just looked at it and had some divergent thoughts... NCT had just finished singing "Fire Truck", and BP came up to sing "Playing with Fire".
It always feels a bit targeted...
Next, several boy groups and girl groups appeared one after another, followed by the boy group monster X and then lovelyz.
Chi Jingyuan is quite familiar with lovelyz. Some of the members still have contact information. They were exchanged when he was a substitute in "Weekly Idol" last year. The guests in that episode were Gfriend and Twice.
...I remember that in that issue, he seemed to have taken a pillow that he liked very much from the dormitory and gave it as a game gift, but he kind of forgot who he gave it to.
It's a pity that at that time, these three girl groups were guests together, and their popularity and popularity were about the same. However, this year, Gfriend and Twice have soared, leaving lovelyz far behind. The other two are already in the second half of the Gayo Daejeon.
debuted in prime time, they still performed in the newcomer's time slot,
The difference in stamina is huge if it doesn't keep up with the situation, which is quite embarrassing to say.
After a series of individual stages ended, hundreds of people suddenly appeared on the stage that seemed a little empty just now... In the first half of this year's Gayo Daejeon, the most anticipated 'Girl Group Gathering' began.
Six girl groups including momoland, gugudan, Cosmic Girls, DIA, CLC, and LABOUM collaborated to perform their masterpieces one after another while recreating the dance square of female trainees in this year's national program "Produce 101".
The troupe and dozens of backup dancers danced and moved in unison on the stage, which seemed to be very enjoyable to watch.
"Wow, how long does this rehearsal take?"
Chi Jingyuan was shocked by this lineup. He clapped his hands and exclaimed in a low voice.
The nine members of EXO are often held back on the rehearsal stage, let alone a large-scale collaboration stage with six groups.
"What do you think of Bona?" At this time, Wu Shixun, who was next to him, came over again and looked at Jin Zhiyan who walked to the C position on the stage and pursed his lips.
"Do you have any ideas?" Chi Jingyuan looked at him speechlessly.
"I'm not talking about me, I'm talking about you!"
"Cough~"
Chi Jingyuan coughed lightly, looked away, and straightened his chest: "I have a girlfriend!"
"Ah ha ha……"
Although what he said was plausible, the unbearable smell in the snickering coming from beside him made him feel a little uncomfortable.
After the women's group assembly, there was the men's group assembly. Six men's groups including pentagon SF9 KNK ASTRO SNUPER HALO took to the stage and performed the same large square dance. It was very shocking to watch.
I have to say that this year's Gayo Daejeon is really big. These six are also relatively popular among the boy groups that have debuted in recent years. It's just that compared to the girl group lineup just now, the boy groups here are slightly less well-known.
A little bit.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! ...Due to the suppression of EXO, the Kpop boy group market has indeed been a bit difficult in recent years. Countless new groups have debuted and died countless times, even if they finally managed to gain a foothold.
, and can only eat a little bit of the leftover cold food in the gap.
After learning that EXO was being targeted by the industry, Chi Jingyuan and other members could not help but feel a sense of urgency. They always felt that someone might die in their place... At this time, he cheered up and watched carefully.
These are some new boy groups that stand out a little bit.
He wanted to see if there was any group or member that seemed to have great potential.
...I just looked at it for a while, and except for one of the ASTRO kids who was pretty handsome, I didn’t feel much about the rest.
Although it is said that a group only needs one HIT song to perform, the potential of this group can be roughly seen from the comprehensive qualities of the members, including appearance, strength, etc.
Not to mention anything else, the comprehensive quality of the 12 debut members of EXO is here. Their software, hardware, appearance and strength are among the best among male groups. They have four main singers, four fronts, two main dancers, etc.
The title also shows that the group is completely top-notch and is the essence of an entire generation of male trainees in SM.
It's really not that simple to achieve their configuration. He really can't see any threat from these boy groups.
I think that the stages of these two male and female groups imitate this year's "Produce 101", and "Produce 101" is also the most popular program this year, directly creating the explosively popular national girl group IOI.
If you look at it this way... they won't come up with a male version of 101 next year, right?
"By the way..."
"Ah ah ah ah ah……"
When Chi Jingyuan was about to say something, a loud and harsh scream suddenly erupted from behind. The sound was obviously much louder than the volume of the support stage at the previous second, and even somewhat overshadowed the stage accompaniment being played.
Even the singing voices of the male idols were completely suppressed.
This sudden increase in screams was most likely the director's reaction. He came to his senses instantly, stopped talking, calmed down his expression, and then looked up at the big screen.
Sure enough, a close-up of him appeared on the big screen in front, with delicate short hair and clear eyes.
His action of looking at the big screen seemed to hit the excitement point of the fans and audience again, or maybe just seeing Chi Jingyuan's face made them excited. The cheers were obviously louder, and the whole venue seemed to be shaken.
stand up.
Sensing this explosive popularity, all the idols at the artist table around him couldn't help but be shocked and looked sideways, including the members of EXO next to them, who couldn't help but turn their heads and look over with a strange smile. Kim Min-seok even gave a thumbs-up sign.
The girls in Twice in the back row felt the restless atmosphere and couldn't help but move in the direction of the XO in front. Zhou Ziyu first looked at Chi Jingyuan's back and the back of his head, and then looked up at the familiar figure on the big screen.
On his face, he secretly pursed his lips with some dissatisfaction, but he couldn't help but pursed his lips in joy, and he didn't know whether he was angry or proud.
"...You guys should watch TV with a lower volume..."
In a family in Seoul, Li Huiying walked from the kitchen to the bedroom. When passing by the living room, she heard the huge noise coming from the TV. She couldn't help but stop and chatter. But as soon as she looked over, she saw a very familiar face.
, she couldn't help but move forward, pointed at the person on the TV and said: "This...isn't this Jin Yu? Is "Goblin" broadcast today?"
She recognized this face at a glance. She had only watched the latest live broadcast two days ago, and it hadn't even been a week yet...
Jin Yunxi, who was watching with eyes shining, heard her grandma's question and noticed that her parents and brother next to her didn't mean to explain. She couldn't help but turned around and said: "No, this is the SBS Gayo Battle, Kyung Won and Oppa are also participating...
"
"Isn't the Gayo Daejeon a party where a group of young people dance and make a lot of noise? Isn't Jin Chan an actor? Why did he participate?"
"Because Oppa Jingyuan's job is to be an idol, he is a member of EXO, and an actor is just..."
Following Jin Yunxi's explanation, grandma was no longer in a hurry to go back to the room. Instead, she sat next to her granddaughter and watched the song battle on TV, which she didn't catch a cold at all... Unfortunately, the close-up of the familiar face on TV disappeared in a flash.
Then there was another program that made her frown and dance, and it was so noisy.
"Where's the man? Where's the gold concubine?"
"Grandma, we haven't arrived at EXO yet..."
"What EXO, where is Kim Gongren?"
"This is not their stage now..."
"Then when will he come out?"
Similar scenes happen in many families. It can only be said that because of its own popularity and the recent explosion of "Goblin", Chi Jingyuan is so popular now that even many old people
Grandparents of the entire generation have known his face, and his national popularity has grown extremely rapidly.
...It is actually not an exaggeration to say that he is the most popular artist in the entire peninsula this month.
And at the Gayo Daejeon scene, I saw the face of the most popular character on TV recently, the familiar ghost general Kim Chan, appear on the big screen, and the face of a popular actor from a hit drama appeared in this world of Kpop and idols.
, many people will inevitably have a feeling of coming from TV to reality.
After realizing Chi Jingyuan's original identity as an idol, fans who like Kpop immediately felt a sense of wonder and pride. It's no wonder that the support was so intense that it was exaggerated.
Even people who don't watch Gayo Daejeon at all usually only take a look at it because of Jin Dong, that is, Ji Kyung Won.
A random reaction shot achieved such a good effect, and the director seemed to have tasted the benefits. As long as the reaction shot was cut during the entire first half, Chi Jingyuan was bound to be exposed, and then there were calls for support that exceeded the stage.
.
After coming twice, the audience seemed to have fun, and they started shouting as soon as anything happened, as if they were already having fun.
It just made the people performing on the stage embarrassed, and Chi Jingyuan was also a little embarrassed...
Fortunately, at the bottom of the first half, when Chi Jingyuan was slouching, Wu Shixun next to him suddenly patted him.
"Let's go. The assistant reminded us that it's time to leave."
"So early? Aren't there a few more shows?"
"In a while it will be YG's stage, and we will probably interact with the artists at the artist booth. Do you want to support them?"
