After Chi Jingyuan said goodbye, he left the styling room with Jin Shanmei's shadowy eyes. He didn't feel the eyes staring at him disappear until he opened the door and walked out.
"Well, Jingyuan is still so fast. Sit there and rest for a while. I guess you have to wait for a while."
Li Chenghuan, who had been watching, saw Chi Jingyuan coming out and immediately came up to say hello and put a denim jacket on him. Although it was already May, the temperature in the early morning was still a little lower.
"Kang Sang Mita." After Chi Jingyuan thanked him, he sat next to a few people from the K team. The others were dozing off against the backs of their chairs. The next person to do the styling, Wu Sehun, was called out by Lee Seunghwan, and his eyes were bleary.
followed and walked in.
After finishing the styling, he couldn't move around too much to avoid messing up his hair and makeup. Chi Jingyuan just sat on the chair and took a nap with his eyes closed.
Ever since Chi Jingyuan came out and sat there, the eyes of some of the female idols who were not asleep in the lounge of the beauty salon couldn't help but glance here.
After looking at it for a while, his eyes would shift to other places and he would glance at it for a few seconds and then look back again. If he was a teammate in a group, there would sometimes be some eye contact.
The atmosphere seemed to be a little different from just now.
Chi Jingyuan felt a little strange, but he didn't care about it. He took a rest as soon as he had time.
Most of the artists here are not very popular, and many of them he doesn't know or have even heard of.
After waiting for a while, when the four members of Team K had finished styling and it was the turn of the last two, a man who looked like an agent came in with seven girls and sat quietly aside.
Chi Jingyuan glanced at it. He knew this combination, Apink.
Apink is a relatively popular girl group recently. In January of this year, they won the first place in a singing competition show. This honor has not even been seen by their exo so far.
They officially came back two days ago, and now it's the activity period. Chi Jingyuan occasionally bumped into them backstage and said hello.
There were many people around at the time, and they didn't say much.
Several girls are now wearing no makeup, and it can be seen that they have a good foundation, but their eyes are sleepy and there is nothing outstanding about them.
Chi Jingyuan glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze, without meeting the gaze that was directed at him.
After waiting for a while, everyone's styling was finally finished. After a long sigh of relief, several people followed Li Chenghuan out, got into the nanny car, and drove away.
After exo-k left, a few soft whispers came from the beauty salon lounge:
"Yuan probably didn't see me without makeup..."
"I must have seen it. Don't think about it. Give up. He doesn't like you."
"Ah, you are going to die..."
………………
In this m!countdown, they still sang "Mama". To be honest, Chi Jingyuan almost vomited while singing this song.
From their debut to now, whenever they appear on TV shows, they alternate between "history" and "mama", with "mama" being the majority.
And judging from the company's plans for them, it is estimated that he will have to sing "Mama" for at least half a year, and may have to sing "Mama" for the New Year...
It's quite disappointing just thinking about it.
Moreover, there are several singing programs every week, but they have no effect. Although they have maintained a certain degree of popularity and exposure, they have not attracted more fans. The Internet is still full of ridicule. Chi Jingyuan's own
Fan growth has also slowed down a lot.
The performance of singing songs is also very average, let alone one, not even one candidate can be seen.
The performance of their music sources is also not good. Originally, the Peninsula boy group was not good at their music sources except for Big Bang, but this time "Mama" is even more so. After it was released on April 8, it has already fallen out of the 100th place in Melon in less than a week.
.
Chi Jingyuan stopped paying attention to it after that, and I don’t know if it has fallen off the list now.
The only good news is that the sales volume is really good. Nearly 160,000 albums have been sold in one month since their debut. In fact, they are ranked among the top boy bands in the entire peninsula. I don’t know how much effort the company has contributed to this.
Among them, almost half bought the album because of Chi Jingyuan.
The good sales volume proves that they are not very popular on a large scale, but there are many die-hard fans who are willing to spend money to buy them.
Especially Chi Jingyuan's food, basically most of them are die-hard only food.
However, according to the sales trend, it has become relatively stable now. If nothing unexpected happens, the subsequent sales growth will become very slow.
After exo-m officially debuts and the two teams come together to perform on stage, sales should increase a bit, which is the only consolation for exo these days.
It was already afternoon when we returned to the company after recording the program. Several members of Team K returned to the practice room silently. Team M, who had finished the autograph session, was already waiting inside.
In order to prepare for the joint stage in a few days, they need to seize the time to practice together in these days.
However, after a few people from Team K entered, the atmosphere in the practice room seemed a bit solemn.
The two teams each occupied one side of the practice room, and they seemed to be in opposition. No one could tell that the two teams were actually a combined group.
Team M's debut in Xia Country was very successful, their popularity was very hot, and their fans were loyal and crazy at the same time, making all of them experience the feeling of being a top star.
And whether it is TV programs or some interview magazines, they are also very popular with them. Although a few members of the M team are a little tired after more than a month, the mental outlook of the entire team has been completely different, and there is already a lot of starry atmosphere in every gesture.
, which is very different from the trainee appearance before debut.
Some of them are actually quite dissatisfied with the company's plan to recall them to debut in Korea. They are obviously developing so well in Xia Kingdom and their popularity is so high, but they have to debut on the peninsula at this time.
Especially after a few days of extremely embarrassing book signings before their debut, several people in M felt a strong contrast.
It is highly sought after in Xia Kingdom, and there were only two or three kittens at the peninsula autograph session, which is really unacceptable.
Their mentality can easily change. Some members may feel that the people in Team K are really holding them back, which has made EXO’s popularity in the peninsula so low, and they need to come back from Xia Kingdom to ‘rescue the situation’.
A feeling of condescension formed unconsciously.
The people in Team K are also unhappy. Their mood is not very good because of the current situation of the team. Both the practice room and the dormitory have been silent recently and have always been depressed.
Moreover, they also heard about the success and popularity of Team M in Xia Country, and their mentality became unbalanced.
The company's division into teams m and k seems to be evenly divided, but in fact, they are more optimistic about them and think they are stronger. We hope that all the people who promote them will be placed in team k.
After all, Peninsula is the company’s fundamentals, and the team members also know this.
However, the reality is exactly the opposite. Team K failed in their debut, but Team M was a great success. This comparison makes people even more uncomfortable.
Suddenly, the two teams of EXO, M and K, formed a split in the practice room.
Chi Jingyuan's mentality remained calm, his popularity was very high, and the frustration of Team K did not affect him too much. He had not been in the group for a long time, and he did not participate in the little ninety-nine incidents of the previous members.
But since he joined the group, he has always been with Team K, so it is easy for him to change his stance.
He even said hello to some members of Team M without even speaking to them.
Chi Jingyuan didn't say anything. He silently found a corner and stood against the wall, observing everyone's expressions.
The atmosphere of confrontation was very tense and lasted for almost a minute. Jin Junmyeon, who was hampered by his responsibility as captain, finally stood up and said something.
