The next day, except for Chi Jingyuan, the other five people went to participate in the training class set up by the Idol Games program team.
Not many people want to make a fool of themselves by looking clueless on a show, especially for idols who care about their own image.
Although this is essentially a variety show, it is about fighting for camera shots and space. You can win camera shots with excellent or extremely bad grades, but if you can compete for first place, no one wants to be a clown.
This is especially true when dozens of female idols are watching.
But Chi Jingyuan didn't go, which meant nothing to him.
…………
This variety show will be broadcast on the 11th, but because it is recorded, it will be recorded a week in advance.
On the 4th, at 2:30 in the morning, the six members of Chi Jingyuan who participated in the recording were pulled up by their manager.
What a pity, they didn't go to bed until almost twelve o'clock yesterday.
With sleepy eyes and lowered heads, several members frowned and followed their managers and assistants into the nanny car to go to the beauty salon for styling.
"There are many groups of artists who will participate in the recording today. The beauty salon is quite popular, so we have to do some styling in advance."
"The recording location is at Goyang Indoor Stadium. It takes more than an hour to drive there from Seoul. Moreover, the stadium program team seems to have only rented it for one or two days, so the recording time is very tight. The recording has to start early in the morning, so it is so early.
It’s time to prepare.”
Seeing the members sitting in the nanny car with dejected faces, Lee Seung-hwan simply explained a few words.
But there was silence, no one responded, and all the members sat on their seats with their eyes closed, silently catching up on their sleep.
After finishing my styling at the beauty salon, I got into the nanny car and drove all the way to Gaoyang.
After styling, you can't fall asleep with the same random movements as before. However, the members are very experienced. They sit straight in their seats and put their hands on the sides. This will not affect the makeup and hairstyle and can still fall asleep at any time.
.
The members took advantage of this moment to catch up on their sleep.
More than an hour later, at dawn, the car drove to the front of the Goyang Indoor Stadium. At this time, there were many nanny vans parked in the parking lot.
But not many people came down, and they were all probably catching up on their sleep in the car. Several people from the program team nearby were eating and chatting, with cameras and some equipment at their feet. It looked like they hadn't started filming yet.
After Li Chenghuan said hello, he got out of the car and walked over to the program crew to confirm the filming process.
About half an hour later, the sky had turned blue and white. Many fans and spectators who had entered the stadium were waiting at the entrance of the stadium. People from the program team also carried cameras and started filming. The artists in the nanny car gradually got out of the car.
.
Lee Seung-hwan walked back to the car and called out to the sleeping members: "Get up soon, sort it out, a VJ will come to shoot a clip of getting off the car and arriving at the scene."
"Guilty." They responded feebly. Several members opened their eyes, sighed and began to take out the mirror and tidy up.
This ridiculous program is really tiring.
…………
Half an hour later, EXO had already put on the clothes and shoes prepared by the program crew and was sitting in the waiting room waiting for the official start of recording.
In order to show the team spirit of the athletes and prevent some artists from looking unconventional, all the artists participating in the Idol Games wore clothes and shoes provided by the program team. Boys wore blue sneakers and girls wore pink sneakers.
Depending on the team, the colors of the clothes are also different.
EXO is from Team A, wearing a light green sportswear.
At this time, they had woken up and no longer felt as sleepy as before. They sat in the waiting room and observed the lively atmosphere around them. Looking at several beautiful female idols, they felt quite novel.
This is not like a singing show, where each group has a waiting room, but several large waiting rooms are set up, with several or even a dozen groups using one, so it is very lively and a bit chaotic.
A few members of EXO were sitting together in the corner. Chi Jingyuan squinted his eyes slightly and was relaxing. The other people were quite energetic and kept looking at the other artists in the same waiting room. Kim Jun Mianze and the girl from Girlsday next to him
Several female idols are chatting and building relationships.
The program team divided all participating combinations into several teams according to a, b, c, d, etc.
There are three artists divided into Team A, Shinee, Exo and Girlsday. Only Minho is participating in Shinee. The music video schedule has not come yet, which means that there are only two artists in Team A, so naturally they sit together.
EXO's performance among newcomers is pretty good, but among all the groups they have participated in, they are only moderately popular, and Girlsday is a much more obscure group than them.
Girlsday debuted in 10 years, and in less than three years now, members have left the group and new members have joined the group. It has been 13 years and it has not gained much popularity yet.
Chi Jingyuan saw them twice backstage when they first debuted last year. However, there was no response to their return last year. They played a few songs and then ended it.
Chi Jingyuan has never had any impression of this group, and he feels a little embarrassed to say it. Even the names of two of their members were just found online using his mobile phone.
But I didn’t pay much attention to it before. After being assigned to a team and chatting for a while, Chi Jingyuan discovered that this girl group actually has excellent appearance and quality. Several members are very good in appearance and figure, especially the two named Jin Yarong.
and Li Hyeri's members all look very eye-catching.
Although Chi Jingyuan didn't say much after saying hello, he kept listening to Jin Junmian and others chatting with them.
The members of this girl group are also very lively, sociable, and have cheerful smiles that make people feel close to each other.
In less than half an hour, Park Chanyeol and Oh Sehun were already chatting with them, talking and laughing.
The two of them really took to the occasion like a duck to water.
However, Chi Jingyuan could feel that when they were chatting, one or two eyes would drift towards him from time to time, and then look away after a quick glance.
"Everyone, get ready. Line up in groups at the entrance and get ready to start the official recording."
After a while, the PD from the program team came over with a loudspeaker and shouted several times in each waiting room. The artists also stood up one after another, left the lounge and walked towards the entrance.
Following the crowd, exo began to walk out. Chi Jingyuan stood at the end, and the four girlsday people followed him.
As soon as he walked out of the lounge door, Chi Jingyuan met Apink who also came out of the lounge next to him.
apink is the d team, the clothes are the same style as theirs, they are just pink clothes.
Zheng Endi, the leader, immediately grinned when he saw Chi Jingyuan and stretched out his right hand to shake it. Chi Jingyuan also smiled the same way and stretched out his hand to give her a high five.
The contact between the two has never been broken. They send messages and chat every now and then, and they exchange a few words from time to time. They are very close relatives.
There were a lot of people around, and the recording was about to start, so the two didn't talk much. Chi Jingyuan nodded and said hello to the several Apink members behind Zheng Eunji.
When his eyes moved to Sun Naen's face, Chi Jingyuan waved to her and smiled.
Sun Naen was obviously a little confused. She clasped her hands together and bit her lips after giving him a smile. Then she lowered her head slightly, but her eyes followed Chi Jingyuan's leaving figure closely.
