In recent days, EXO's music reputation has become a bit bad in the eyes of many passers-by due to their first title song "Wolf".
Many people don't like this song after listening to it and downloading it. They think it's average or even a bit unpleasant. However, sometimes they are attacked by exo fanatics when leaving comments and comments, which makes many people feel angry:
After the news was announced and they found out that the title song of the reissued album was called "Roar", many people immediately thought of "Wolf" and started to ridicule them unceremoniously on the Internet:
"Exo, after 'Wolf', you started your activities with 'Roar'. Are you just having sex with animals?"
"Ah, dog, I am dog, woof woof, let's go for a walk, I am the dog and you are the master... It shouldn't be like this, right?"
This message is an improvisation that directly imitates the chorus lyrics of "Wolf". The dialogue is very neat, but it is a pity that it is used to ridicule.
"Ooooooooooo! Will the chorus have lyrics like this?"
"Really don't be like this, what is 'roaring'? Sm, this really won't work!"
"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha."
"Please look forward to it. On August 5th, exo will roar kkkkkkkkkkkk for you."
"Such a funny song title, are you serious...Idols should just sing and dance honestly, don't think about creating anything all the time."
"..."
Because of the loss of popularity, "Roar" just announced the song title, and was ridiculed by the crowd. Many people wantonly vented their losses on "Wolf" and directly trampled on this song that has not been released yet.
Ground.
It also includes doubts about the song’s creator, Chi Jingyuan. Basically, except for exo fans, few people are optimistic about the title song written by him, an idol who has just debuted for a year.
What's more, SM also announced that Chi Jingyuan participated in music video shooting and choreography, and major music forums were even more negative.
SM Company is very satisfied with the stir caused by the official announcement on the Internet. They just want to attract people's attention. Whether they are optimistic about the success or negative, all of these are popular.
And SM, from Lee Soo Man to the record planning department, are very confident in the title song written by Ji Kyung Won.
They have already seen the finished product of the mv. Before, they were only interested and looking forward to the 'one shot to the end' proposed by Chi Jingyuan. After seeing the effect of the finished product, they were left with only satisfaction, admiration, and deep ambition.
In an internal meeting, Lee Soo Man praised the choreography and arrangement of the song "Roar" as well as the one-shot MV shooting. He even said that this song is an epoch-making song for SM and the Peninsula music industry and will definitely be popular.
Achieving extraordinary results requires publicity officials to increase investment in resources.
No matter how ridiculed and ridiculed the Internet is now, everything will be revealed when it is released in August.

“How many sales are we selling now?”
Backstage at the MBC Music Center, Tao took a sip of water and asked.
"When I looked at it yesterday, it seemed that there were already 480,000."
Jin Zhong glanced at his phone and replied.
"Ah... sales are so good, why is the evaluation of the music source so low..."
Do Kyungsoo let out a long sigh and stuffed the burger in his hand into his mouth.
Today is July 6th, more than a month has passed since EXO returned, and more than half of the singing period of "Wolf" has passed.
After a month, the title song of their album has already been released on the charts and is not in the status.
However, the sales of the album shocked the entire peninsula music industry. As of yesterday, the total sales of EXO's first regular album "xoxo" reached 480,000 copies, including 290,000 copies of the kiss version and 190,000 copies of the hug version.
The top two spots on the sales charts for the entire month of June were completely occupied by their two versions of albums.
And as time goes by, their sales are not slowing down very quickly. According to industry experience and the company's estimates, there should be a buying wave after the reissue of the album is released.
This polarization of music sales performance clearly reflects the current general situation of Peninsula boy groups.
"Because of Shinee's invitation, we will be participating in the filming of MBC's "We Got Married" later. Jun Mian has already given the script to you. You should have practiced it in private, right?"
Li Chenghuan looked at his watch, remembered the next task, and asked.
"Hey, brother Chenghuan, it's not difficult. We have practiced it before."
The members nodded to express their small case.
Shine's Taemin and members of Apink participated in MBC's love variety show "We Got Married" in April.
Chi Kyung-won remembered that Jung Eun-ji mentioned at that time that it seemed that Son Na-eun was the first person to come to this show, but in the end she did not participate for various reasons.
The 18th issue has been filmed in July now. The plot of this issue is that Taemin, who is currently in Neon, cannot come back, so he asks his close junior group EXO, who is in the same company, to give a gift to Apink.
It can not only increase the ratings by leveraging exo's recent popularity, but also allow exo to appear in this well-known variety show and take the opportunity to promote it. It is a win-win situation.
The process has been told to them before. It's very simple. Apink officially returned with its third mini album yesterday and has already started working on the title song "no no no", which is now in the waiting room of Music Bank.
After a while, EXO will send two people to deliver Taemin's letter, then take them to a prepared recording room, then dance "Wolf" in front of them, and then just chat for a few words.
A very simple recording process.
"Nai, that's ok. Get ready. The program team will be here soon."
After Li Chenghuan explained, the members also hurriedly finished the things at hand. Chi Jingyuan finished a piece of pizza in two or two mouths, then wiped his hands with a wet wipe and looked in the mirror to see if there was any oversight.
About twenty minutes later, the recording staff of MBC's "We Got Married" came in, greeted each other, and after making sure everything was correct, the recording officially started:
"Then I'll beg you to help me deliver the gift!"
First, I made a phone call with Taimin and explained the origin of the story. During the phone call, Taimin enthusiastically asked his juniors for help.
"Don't worry, we will definitely deliver it." Jin Junmyeon answered the phone and said it was no problem at all.
"By the way, the member who goes to apink to inform must be Jingyuan, don't forget..." Taimin suddenly remembered something and quickly explained.
"I?"
Chi Jingyuan, who was standing behind the crowd and watching the show, was suddenly called. His face was dull and he pointed at himself in disbelief.
The VJ filming next to him faithfully recorded his reaction.
Which episode is this? Doesn’t it say in the script that Oh Se-hun and Kim Min-seok went to notify apink?
"Nai, this is a temporary decision, because during the chat, several sisters-in-law said that they like Yuan from EXO very much... Jingyuan, just send the notification letter I prepared, there is no need to say anything.
, Brother, please take care of me." Taemin's voice on the phone was very sincere.
"Brother, I...will work hard."
Chi Jingyuan immediately controlled his expression and nodded to indicate there was no problem.
Of course, at this time, you can't say that I don't want to go because I can't do it. Then there is an ex-girlfriend of mine. It would be very embarrassing if she went.
He turned his face sideways, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly, and he couldn't help but curse in his heart.
