"Slow down, don't crowd, line up! Yeah, that guy over there, don't crowd!"
The assistants and security guards loudly maintained order, but no matter how loudly they yelled, it seemed to be a drop in the bucket in the face of the surging crowd.
At this time, all members of EXO are holding a signing event in a commercial office building in Sinchon, Seoul. They have performed and chatted before, and now the signing session has lasted for more than half an hour.
From the trailer to the release of the music video, to the official release of "Roar", it broke records and appeared on numerous hot searches. After becoming a trend, EXO's popularity skyrocketed.
During the "mama" period, exo was just a little transparent. Ji Jingyuan's popularity was soaring. There were only two or three people who came to the autograph sessions, and most of them were Yuan's meal. Fans often ignored him.
Members jumped to sign.
Not only did the members feel uncomfortable with this kind of signing delay, Chi Jingyuan himself was also very embarrassed, so the signing sessions at that time were not good memories for every member of the team.
Things got a lot better during the "Wolf" period, and every book signing event was always full of people. The presence of hundreds of fans made all the members feel happy and full of energy.
And now...
Chi Jingyuan remembered that when he entered the venue before, the entrance was densely packed, and the crowds of people were as if they were going to a market. The entire street was filled to the brim, leaving no gaps.
Standing at a high place and looking at it at a glance, the darkness below looks like marching ants, which is daunting.
In order to see them, some people opened the windows while dining on the second and third floors of the restaurant next to them, and sat directly on the window sill to look down, without any protective measures. They were really crazy.
This time it is not a public signing event. Instead, you need to purchase the album at a designated video store to have a certain chance of getting a signing opportunity. There are only hundreds of places in total.
In other words, hundreds of fans gathered at the door just to take a look at EXO.
They caused a commotion when they arrived just now, and almost caused a bad incident. With the help of assistants and security guards, they were able to walk into the signing venue. After arriving at the backstage of the venue, everyone
He sighed as if he was reborn.
To be honest, the presence of so many fans not only brought them joy, but also brought them a lot of pressure.
Chi Jingyuan had just signed for a meal and said goodbye with a smile. At this time, a new fan stood in front of him with an excited face and looked at him uncontrollably.
"Anihasayo." Chi Jingyuan greeted with a smile.
This female fan looks to be about fourteen or fifteen years old. She is a little round and has a red headband in her hair. Overall, she looks quite cute.
"oppa! oppa! I like you so much." Hearing Chi Jingyuan's voice and having such a close contact, the female fan immediately felt a little frustrated. Tears instantly flowed down. She couldn't help but stretched out her hand to grab Chi Jingyuan.
Jingyuan’s arm.
At this time, the assistant next to him rushed over immediately, preparing to pull the out-of-control fan away.
Peninsula artists usually have some interactions with fans at their autograph sessions, either wearing hats and decorations given by fans, or shaking hands.
However, SM's autograph signings have always been known for being inhumane. They hate fans getting too close to idols. During the event, there are always assistants watching. Once fans behave excessively, they will come over and pull them away immediately.
"Brother, it's okay." Seeing the assistant rushing this way, the female fan showed a desperate expression. Chi Jingyuan waved to the assistant, indicating that she didn't have to come over.
If it were other members, the assistant might have to think twice, but as a well-known privileged member of the company, the assistant would just obey.
"Oppa, I really like you." The female fan breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the assistant leave. She grabbed Chi Jingyuan's arm with some force and repeated it excitedly.
"Gui, I can see it. Thank you very much for your support. May I ask what your name is."
Chi Jingyuan stretched out his right hand, gently patted the back of the female fan holding his left arm, and asked in a gentle tone.
"Oppa, my name is Choi Sun-mi, and I've liked you since you debuted." Choi Sun-mi shouted her name loudly.
"The name is really nice, where should I sign it?" Chi Jingyuan smiled and nodded to her.
"Here." Cui Shanmei pointed to a location on the album. When she saw Chi Jingyuan starting to sign, she still held his arm tightly with her hand, and at the same time babbled:
"Oppa, I bought ten copies of your debut album, but I didn't get your card. This time I saved more than a year's pocket money, and asked my mother for some, so I bought fifteen albums at once.
I finally got your photo card and the autograph spot this time, I’m so lucky.”
"Everyone in our fan base likes the song "Roar" very much. Oppa is really good at writing such beautiful songs. We have been hitting the charts every day since the sound source was released, and everyone is working hard. Seeing EXO and Oppa
Now it is so popular and has become a trend, we are really happy."
"The most popular thing in our school now is exo, it's really Dafa!"
"The other day, someone slandered someone on the Internet, saying that a song as good as "Roar" was not written by Oppa, and also cursed him with some unpleasant words. He was so angry that people in our Yuan fan group immediately blocked him in the private message and never spoke to him again.
Dare to take the lead."
"Oppa, can you please stop dating that woman Zheng Eunji? She is not good-looking at all, has such a big mouth, and is a wild country girl from Busan. She is not worthy of you at all."
"When will Oppa go filming again? My mother and I really enjoyed watching "Reply 1997", except for Jung Eun Ji's scenes."
Chi Jingyuan's left hand was held by Cui Shanmei, and the signing with his right hand was a little slow.
Cui Shanmei kept talking to herself during the process. Even if Chi Jingyuan only smiled at her occasionally and did not respond vocally, she kept talking, wanting to express all her love for Chi Jingyuan in her heart.
Take this opportunity to express it all.
After a while, after signing her name, her signing time was almost up. Seeing that she was about to leave, Cui Shanmei was a little reluctant to leave, and asked hesitantly:
"Oppa, what is your ideal type like? How can I become your ideal type?"
Hearing this question, Chi Jingyuan pursed his lips, looked at the other person's hopeful face, suddenly smiled, looked at the other person's pupils seriously with his bright eyes, and said softly:
"You already are."
…………
Chi Jingyuan leaned a little tiredly on the sofa in the backstage lounge, flexing his sore wrists.
Continuously signing is still a bit tiring, especially after you finish, your hands will feel a little weak.
However, Chi Jingyuan was really touched when he saw that he was sincerely liked and supported by so many people. In comparison, this fatigue was nothing at all.
It was break time, and there were not many people around him at this time. Some members went to the toilet, and some went out to answer the phone and did not come back.
"ring……"
At this time, Chi Jingyuan's cell phone suddenly rang. He took it out and looked at it and found that it was Park Jae-hyun's, so he answered the call directly.
"Don't worry about it."
"Jingyuan, you guys have been so hot lately, how do you feel?"
"Well, it's pretty good, but I'm a little tired."
"You must pay attention to rest... By the way, your uncle's assistant sent me a document asking me to ask about your wishes."
"what did you say?"
"SBS has a very promising major drama that is about to start filming. There was some trouble during the casting process and it was delayed. Recently, the casting process has been restarted. If you have ideas, we can try to get an important role in it."
