The hour hand moved toward the hour, and countless clicks and page refresh operations came at the same time. SM's official website immediately fell into a downtime, and it barely returned to normal after a few seconds.
At this time, the page has been refreshed, and the MV for the title song "Growl/Roar" from EXO's regular first reissue album has been uploaded.
Below the video is an introduction to the song and the songwriter.
Taking a closer look, the lyrics, composition, and arrangement are all written with the name of one person, Yuan. It looks very simple, and the simplicity makes people feel a little nervous.
Many people who didn't know the news before were immediately shocked.
"It's started, it's started!"
Regardless of whether it was Kang Seulgi or Im Nayeon, after briefly looking at the introduction, they immediately clicked on the play video, blinking and staring at the phone screen without moving.
"Da da da da..."
The extremely dynamic looping electronic music prelude sounded directly, completely attracting the attention of everyone watching in an instant.
The people who were still chattering when I was writing something couldn't help but become quiet involuntarily.
This prelude is so catchy that it makes people’s ears stand up immediately.
"yoo, ok."
The screen lit up, Tao gestured to the camera, and the mv officially started.
"sexy..."
"You may not know. I want to give you a warning. Listen clearly. It is very dangerous now."
"so dangerous."
The first six people to appear were all dressed in gray school uniforms, and with their own new looks, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Hey Yigu, their school uniform looks so handsome!" Lin Nalian couldn't help but sigh, and was immediately 'shushed' by Yu Dingyan, telling her to look good.
"My breathing is always rapid, and you come towards me."
"You look at me and smile, you must be attracted to me too."
It was Chi Jingyuan's turn for the part. He walked from the back row to the front row, with a provocative smile on his face, and hooked his hand at the camera. Then he and Kai pointed at each other, and there was an interaction.
Countless female fans couldn't help but cover their mouths.
His silver-gray hair flashed by in the trailer. If you don't watch it carefully and repeatedly, you may not be able to see it clearly. This is the first time for many people to see his new look for this comeback.
A neat and slim-fitting school uniform, lined with a white shirt and a black tie, coupled with a tall and straight figure, instantly reminds people of the image of the school hunk who is sought after by all women in high schools in novels or comics.
He was also wearing a baseball cap with the EXO logo on his back at this time. In addition to being handsome, he also had a touch of liveliness. This time, all the members have the latest images, but Chi Jingyuan’s image design is the most outstanding one among them all.
.
"Omo, Jingyuan/yuan is so pretty..."
This heartfelt sigh came from countless places at the same time.
After a dance, Chi Jingyuan took off his hat and put it on his head, revealing his complete hairstyle.
From the moment he stood in the front row, he was in the C position for this verse until the first chorus began.
"A black shadow awakens within me."
"Watch your eyes sparkle."
"I eu-reu-reong eu-reu-reong eu-reu-reong you."
"I eu-reu-reong eu-reu-reong eu-reu-reong you."
"If you don't retreat, you won't care even if you get hurt."
The chorus part has been exposed in the trailer before, but this time it is a completely different experience in the music video.
The chorus, which is already full of rhythm, with extremely addictive melody and lyrics, coupled with the very magical and handsome choreography and the uniform knife dance, makes everyone's eyes shine and their bodies sway along with it.
The melody of the chorus fills my ears like a magic sound, and when paired with the very distinctive dance, it lingers in my mind.
At the end of the first chorus, following Tao's guidance, the camera followed his footsteps and turned to the other side, where six members of the second team appeared.
"This shot change...isn't there any editing in this MV?"
At this time, some people who knew more about it were surprised to discover this.
The choreography of the second verse of the second verse of the second team's performance was completely different from that of the first verse. The choreography of this verse was dynamic, with the members continuously changing positions while performing group dances on the scene, giving the audience a sense of fullness.
The novelty of curiosity.
There was also a specially designed camera turn in the middle. Jin Junmian waved his hand and the camera turned to the other side. Wu Sehun at the other end waved his hand and turned the camera back. There was no editing in the middle. It looked as if the members were personally controlling it.
The camera is filming the mv.
"This is... a shot to the end!"
Some people in the industry who had been paying attention could not help but murmur to themselves in surprise.
There was no time to surprise them. Waves of excitement like electric shocks came one after another.
Soon, the members of the second team entered the chorus. The choreography of the chorus was the same, but it was performed by six completely different people, which gave a different feeling.
After the chorus ended, the camera zoomed out to show all the members entering the country, walking quickly and half-crouching on the ground, forming a large triangular formation.
Chi Jingyuan stood at the sharp corner at the front of the triangle, and the camera took a close-up of him.
I saw him adjusting his suit, raising the corners of his mouth slightly, putting on a handsome expression, tilting his head slightly, making gestures to the camera, and holding the group name in his mouth:
"e." Stretch both hands flat, curl up the little finger and ring finger, and stretch out the other three fingers to align.
"x" The index finger and ring finger are extended together and crossed in front of the body.
"O" straighten all the fingers, align both hands, and form a circle with the tiger's mouth.
"omo..."
Sun Shengwan opened his mouth wide and exclaimed, and then he couldn't help but imitate Ji Kyungwon's gestures and started making gestures. Kang Seulqi and Bae Zhuhyun next to him were already immersed in it, looking at Ji Kyungwon on the phone with great concentration.
, eyes unblinking.
This kind of part that mentions the name of the group in the lyrics is very rare. For example, exo's choreography that specifically combines gestures and dances, as well as close-ups of the group name is also a pioneer, which has attracted countless fans and idols who are watching on i
I smacked my tongue at it.
Especially Ji Jingyuan, the main character who reported the group name at this time, looked so dazzling under the camera. When the three letters "exo" came out of his mouth, it was sonorous and powerful, which was heartbreaking.
The audience's mouths never closed after that...
Because the whole MV has entered the highest part, which is also the most handsome part of the choreography of "Roar", the group dance.
After announcing the group name, Chi Kyung-won squatted down with the other members, leaving Chanyeol alone in the middle to rap.
Following the rhythm, all the members squatted and danced left and right, and then suddenly straightened their waists with their hands on the ground, swaying in mid-air. The camera switched to a distant view, and the movements of the eleven people appeared extremely neat, like a mold.
Engraved.
Then everyone kicked their feet, stood up on the spot, quickly walked into two rows, and collectively moved to the right.
After the rap ended, all the members dispersed instantly, filling the entire scene with their backs to the camera.
"Only you and me stay here, as if time has stopped.:
After Luhan and Kim Junmyeon's singing ended, under Chen's high notes, the last chorus entered, which was also the last period of the MV.
"I eu-reu-reong eu-reu-reong eu-reu-reong you."
"I eu-reu-reong eu-reu-reong eu-reu-reong you."
All the members began to spread out, and the camera began to move around, slowly turning from right to left. Under the neat group dance, everyone's eyes were naturally looking at the camera.
The duration of the mv reached 3 minutes and 01 seconds. When the camera slowly switched to filming, Chi Jingyuan, who had never appeared in the group dance before, suddenly broke into the camera and took a slap in the face at a very close distance.
The camera made a powerful beating gesture, and the handsome face grinned and bared his teeth, making a "roaring" expression.
"Ah ah... Hey Yigu! Hey Yigu..."
Screams came from countless families, and countless viewers were stunned by Chi Jingyuan's face-to-face blow at a very close range. The sudden shock and amazement rushed from their hearts to their minds, and poured into their minds.
Every corner of your mind.
"..."
Pei Zhuxuan was startled by Chi Jingyuan's intrusion into the scene, and her expression was dull. Then her eyes visibly brightened. Even if the scene of the group dance floor was not the C position, she kept staring at Chi Jingyuan on the screen of her mobile phone.
position until the end of mv.
At that moment, she felt her heart beating hard, as if she had been hit by something. The scene from that part still echoed in her mind, and her body was still numb.
Not only Bae Zhuhyun, but also Zhou Ziyu, Lin Nayeon, even Girls' Generation and even Apink's dormitory, there was a burst of exclamation at the same time.
"I eu-reu-reong eu-reu-reong eu-reu-reong you."
"I eu-reu-reong eu-reu-reong eu-reu-reong you."
"If you don't retreat, you won't care even if you get hurt."
At this time, the length of the MV has come to an end. When the chorus was repeated for the last time, all the members formed a circle. Kai stood in the middle, danced in unison and then performed the ending movement. Following two strong drum beats,
The screen turned black, the big logos of SM and EXO appeared, and the mv ended.
"…………"
The phone has entered a black screen, but Lin Nalian and Yu Dingyan are still looking at it in a daze, as if they were immersed in just now and have not yet woken up.
After several seconds, the two of them came back to their senses and looked at each other with the same surprise and sigh.
"This EXO is so handsome...the singing is nice and the dancing is nice. I will definitely make a big splash."
Lin Nalian couldn't help but admire: "Especially Yuan, why can he look so good in school uniform! Those shots are really... ah..."
At the end of her speech, she buried her head in her legs and screamed in excitement, her heart surging and she couldn't control it.
"Gui... I seem to understand Ernie a little bit..." Yu Dingyan nodded slowly and pursed his lips.
"Ahh... I can't do it anymore, watch it again and again."
