"With their backs to each other, they are busy with life, hiding behind the mask of anonymity."
Accompanied by the strong rhythm of "mama", the twelve members neatly danced the first dance on the stage. This very religious and profound song directly ignited the atmosphere of the entire venue instantly.
, the screams kept coming and going without stopping.
At this time, the makeup of the twelve members of EXO has their own characteristics. Most of them wear casual vests and their colorful hair colors look very atmospheric. Some of them also use large-area tattoo stickers, such as Chen.
An inexplicable pattern extends from the side of the neck to the shoulders.
They will change four or five sets of clothes throughout the concert. At this time, Chi Jingyuan is wearing a tight black sleeveless vest with no buttons, a white plain T-shirt underneath, and dark jeans and sneakers underneath. The whole outfit is slim and slim.
He is also well-cut, has a slender figure, has a delicate face, and looks handsome and fashionable against the clean temperament, without any tacky feeling.
The pure black hair was a little messy, and all the bangs exposed on the forehead were combed up and to one side.
He is one of the few people in this scene who has not dyed his hair. What is interesting is that the dark primary color is very conspicuous among a group of silver, orange and red hair colors.
As soon as he appeared, the audience sitting far away could not see clearly, but the fans in the rows closest to the stage naturally locked their eyes on Chi Jingyuan. Even if it was not his C part, he was not on the big screen.
The same is true in .
The performance was still going on, and whenever the song ‘mamma’ was sung, the whole audience would join in with the chorus, and the atmosphere of the concert that had just begun was directly raised to a high point, and it immediately became hi.
"Mama" was EXO's debut song. It was criticized at the time and not many people liked it. It was precisely because of this unpopular and even slightly weird song that EXO, which was very popular at the time, had just debuted.
He was thrown into the cold palace and stayed in cold storage for more than half a year before he returned to the outside world.
However, as EXO became more and more popular and became the top boy group, suddenly more and more people liked this debut song that no one cared about at the time.
Many people began to whitewash it on the Internet. No one said it was "ugly" or "ugly" anymore, but they said it was very musical, had far-reaching ideas, and had interesting concepts. The reputation gradually changed. Anyway, that was the time
The bad shit song turned into one of XO's best songs.
The difference between before and after is so huge that it is speechless.
It's a bit similar to Girls' Generation's debut song "The World Reunion". Not many people liked it when it was first released. But when Girls' Generation reached its peak, this song changed its clothes and became SNSD's most popular song.
Musical songs have become a must-have for all girl groups to learn.
But in fact, in terms of musicality and the meaning of the lyrics, "Mama" is indeed the best song among all EXO's songs, if not one of them.
And for every group, the debut song is the most unique song. Whether it is for fans or idols themselves, every time they hear this special melody, they will always have their own feelings and memories.
.
Putting "mama" at the beginning is also to heat up the venue as quickly as possible.
The effect is indeed very good. This meaningful song seems to pull everyone back to April 2012, when the twelve young members of EXO just appeared in everyone's field of vision.
"If you can change it, just change everything."
"Tell me mama mama."
"Careless, careless. Shoot anonymous, anonymous."
"Heartless, mindless. No one. who care about me?"
After the singing ended like a prayer, all members performed ending movements, the lights gradually dimmed, and strong cheers erupted from below.
Before the sound could spread, the music suddenly started playing again.
The song "let out the beast" included in the regular album "xoxo"
Compared to several of EXO's most popular songs, this song is somewhat less famous, but for fans, any song is basically familiar to them. Even if it is just a simple song, they can immediately follow it and hum it:
"Don't be afraid to let out the beast."
"As long as you have faith let out the beast."
"Let's shout let out the beast."
“let out the beast!“
At the final ending, everyone pointed to the sky, and the fireworks in front of the stage exploded in time, causing countless cheers. When the lights dimmed, all eleven people hurriedly left the stage, leaving only Lay in the center of the stage, sitting on a stool with his back
To the audience.
This is the first of many personal stages prepared by the members, his self-composed solo dance performance "i y".
Lay is also a member who likes to compose his own songs. He has been trying it since before his debut. From his debut to now, he has written a lot of songs and submitted them to the company for EXO to use. However, due to various reasons, they have never reached the company.
standards for inclusion, so we are still working on it.
This song "i y" is named after him. It is a self-composed song with great confidence and meaning. It seems that the response from the audience is quite good.
While lay was performing, all the other members returned to the backstage as quickly as possible. After a short drink of water, they all ran to the elevator to get ready. After the performance above, they would go up from here for the next one.
Performance.
"Wow, I was so nervous. I didn't know what to sing just now, but now I realize that the concert has started." Chen wiped his sweat and expressed his feelings with a stiff smile.
"I saw my parents, they kept looking at me, really..." Do Kyung-soo also shook her head, seemingly dissatisfied but actually smiling very happily.
Chi Jingyuan also echoed a few words. He went up from the opening elevator and saw the silver sea of light like the Milky Way. He was really shocked. His mind was always hazy. He drank two mouthfuls of water before he slowly recovered.
The feeling of a family concert is completely different from that of a solo concert where you are the protagonist. The feeling of tens of thousands of people coming for you and all eyes on you is really heart-pounding.
The whole body and mind become fascinated and addicted.
"It's ready, start the lift immediately." The field attendant nearby received the contact from the PD and quickly shouted to them.
After hearing this, the eleven members quickly stopped communicating. They formed a circle on the circular elevator and squatted down to hold their breath. After a few seconds, the elevator slowly rose and sent them to the stage.
At this time, lay's solo performance had just ended, and during the transition time, all the lights in the entire venue were turned off, leaving only countless glow sticks waving.
The healing and heart-warming prelude sounded in the darkness. Just hearing it made me forget that I was in the dark and my heart was filled with warmth. The melodious cheers mixed in during the period made the whole melody more deeply rooted in people's hearts.
"Fluttering the little butterfly wings, your attraction to me."
"As if waving in exchange, I will go with you."
The song sounded in the darkness, and the warm yellowish lights gradually turned on, illuminating the members who took the elevator to the center of the stage. Chi Jingyuan took the microphone and took the lead in singing the first line with a gentle voice.
"Butterfly Girl" is one of the most popular songs in EXO's regular album.
The relaxing and healing music style is full of the feeling of nostalgia and warmth. The butterfly flying for love and hope seems to appear in front of my eyes. With the fluttering of its wings, my heart beats, and I can't help but become a companion and fly with it into the distance.
"Guide me."
"Take me with you to where you live."
"Never leave my sight, don't disappear even if morning comes."
Halfway through this familiar song, it attracted many people to sing along. The sound was not uniform, but it sounded so touching.
Under the illumination of the lights and the return of lay, the twelve members stood neatly in a row at the front of the main stage and sang the last verse of the song:
"A small gesture creates a whirlwind in my heart."
"Woo-hoo-hoo-Woo-hoo-hoo..."
The music gradually disappeared, and this time the lights turned back on immediately after darkening without entering the transition. All the members stood there and greeted the audience loudly, and some of them screamed excitedly:
“Wow woo…
The big screen also gave everyone close-ups at the right time, and the cheers from below became louder and louder.
"Then let me say hello to everyone first." Jin Junmian smiled brightly and spoke into the microphone: "1, 2, 3, we are one Anihasay, we are EXO."
"Ahhh..." Along with waving glow sticks, shouts came one after another.
"Hello everyone, I'm Tao from EXO." Tao, standing on the far left, introduced himself first.
Today he dyed his hair blond, painted his signature eyeliner, and the arm exposed by the sleeveless vest on the right side was covered with tattoo stickers. His mixed style looked very distinctive: "Everyone should have fun and enjoy today."
Tao looked really excited. He spoke word by word, every syllable was said very hard, and the last sentence was shouted out loud like a roar.
"Ah..." The audience's reaction was also very intense.
"Hello everyone, I am Baekhyun from EXO... You are all so beautiful today. You will be with us until the end, right?"
"Hello everyone, I am Xiumin from EXO. Are you ready to cheer enthusiastically? We will definitely work hard."
"Hello everyone……"
Starting from tao, each member from left to right introduced themselves in turn, and also shared a few words about their inner thoughts. Facing such an exciting moment, it was obvious that everyone could not contain their excitement and excitement.
Passion.
"Ahhhh..."
When it was the penultimate turn, a close-up of Chi Jingyuan appeared on the big screen. When he held the microphone and was about to speak, he was already immersed in manic excitement before he even opened his mouth. His passionate shouting made him pause for a moment.
, then continued with a smile: "Hello everyone, I am EXO's maknae Yuan..."
He was interrupted again mid-sentence. Looking at the scene in front of him that looked like a dazzling galaxy, he couldn't help but praise from the bottom of his heart: "The glow sticks are really beautiful."
"Ahh..."
After waiting for two seconds, feeling the countless eyes looking at him, the gazes full of love and support pouring into him, Chi Jingyuan controlled the excitement in his heart:
"Perhaps my relatives who are outside are also watching... Hello everyone." The big screen switched to the outside of the venue at the right time, where many fans wearing raincoats were sitting there, unwilling to leave.
Seeing the outside fans captured on the screen waving excitedly, Chi Jingyuan pursed his lips and smiled sincerely after the camera switched back:
"Including the people who love us who have been waiting outside, I am really grateful that so many people came on this rainy day. I wish I could continue to enjoy today's performance happily, Kang Sang Mita..."
After a deep salute, Chi Jingyuan took a step back amid the screams. It was Park Chanyeol's turn at the end.
"I am Chanyeol from EXO, today..."
Park Chanyeol was also moved and said a lot, then bowed and retreated towards the backstage: "I have finished what I want to say, I will take the first step."
"Where are you going?" Jin Junmian asked loudly.
"I'm going to wipe my sweat and I'll be back soon."
The audience in the audience didn't understand what was going on for a while, but they still responded enthusiastically.
"Chanyeol is going to prepare his solo stage first. For this performance, the members have prepared their solo stage seriously and hard. Everyone should be looking forward to it, right?" Kim Junmyeon explained.
"Inside!"
"This performance will also feature some self-composed music by members that have never been made public before, and they will all appear in this performance. For example, Lay's performance just now, he didn't come out in the dormitory all the time, so he was writing this..."
"ah……"
"Like Yuan, a song specially written for fans for this performance..."
"Ah ah ah..." Everyone laughed when they heard this. Chi Jingyuan's self-composed music is already very famous. As soon as Jin Junmyeon's words came out, everyone couldn't help but look forward to it.
Not to mention that it was written specifically for fans, that is, for them.
"I've really prepared a lot... I hope everyone can go crazy together happily today." Bian Baekhyun also nodded vigorously, then looked at the stands and shouted loudly: "Are you ready to go crazy together?"
"yeah……"
"Then, the next song..." As the lights dimmed, all the members quickly left and ran to the backstage. A few seconds later, the lights came on and Park Chanyeol appeared from the elevator with a drum set in front of him.
As the music started to play, he began to beat skillfully.
This is his personal stage, "Delight".
Park Chanyeol knows a lot of musical instruments. In the close-up, he is obviously very skilled. The strong rhythm of the drums constantly stimulates the emotions of the audience. After beating dozens of times in a manic manner, the rhythm reaches a peak, he puts his hands together and uses up all his energy.
Knock it down with all your strength, and there will be a muffled sound, causing continuous cheers.
At this time, the music of "Angle" from the debut mini-album "Mama" sounded, and the six members of Team M walked from the darkness to the light while singing Xia Wen's version of the lyrics.
SM really attaches great importance to the Xiaguo market. Even though it was held in Seoul, the peninsula, nearly one-third of the songs in this concert were Xiawen versions.
While Team M was singing, the other five members of Team K also sat on the luminous hanging basket and began to slowly circle around the venue, waving to the audience or giving thumbs up to express their gratitude.
Some people seemed to notice that there was no Chi Jingyuan among the K team members on the hanging basket, but they didn't care much at this time.
At the moment, Chi Jingyuan was standing on the stage holding a microphone. This was Xia Wen's version without his part, so he didn't sing. He just sang along with a few lines of harmony to show that he wasn't paddling.
The gondola circled around half of the circle and came back, and the song had just come to an end. All the members left the stage under the dimming lights. After a few seconds, the big screen suddenly lit up, immediately arousing excited cheers from everyone.
Because the big screen is showing photos of each of the twelve members of EXO when they were young.
If you like an idol, you will naturally be curious about many things about him, including private photos or childhood photos. Many fans present have searched for photos of the members in their daily lives and collected them in advance.
But what is being played now are basically all photos of EXO members that have never been released to the public. They were secretly requested by SM specifically for this concert.
From Kim Jun-myeon to Do Kyung-soo, and then to Kim Jong-in, every image that flashes will cause huge shouts.
Until the end, when Chi Jingyuan's smiling avatar appeared on the screen, the cheers reached a peak.
Basically, there are no photos of Chi Jingyuan from his past or childhood that are circulated outside. Most of them are photos taken after he entered SM.
I don’t know how many fans were extremely surprised and excited by the picture on the screen at this time.
And compared to the photos of other members that are a bit blurry and have low pixels, all of his photos seem to have been taken carefully and carefully from good angles with excellent quality cameras in order to record every growth process.
At this time, everyone including Zhou Ziyu and Ming Jingnan tilted their heads slightly and stared at the screen without blinking, feeling equally surprised in their hearts.
Photos flashed by one by one. From the baby photos from birth to the teenage years, each photo was very clear. From the pink and jade-like children to the sunny and energetic teenagers, every photo appeared.
Can cause a strong scream.
Chi Jingyuan was very lovable when he was a child. The photos one by one perfectly showed his growth process, and each photo also showed his superior appearance. In his small facial features, there was no dimple.
In the seventh period, you can see the shadow of your current face.
"Wow, Yuan was really good-looking when he was little. He has such handsome breasts. This is too...ah, I can't handle it anymore." Kong Xue was so excited that she couldn't stand it after seeing it halfway. She covered her chest and shouted loudly.
One sentence.
"Everyone can see that he is an absolutely natural handsome guy. There is really no change." Another friend also echoed.
"..." Zhou Ziyu couldn't help but nod, staring at the big screen without blinking, raising the corners of his mouth and laughing inadvertently.
It's just that Chi Jingyuan in the photo doesn't seem to like smiling very much, and his expression has always been a little cold.
Soon we came to the last picture, which was taken when Chi Jingyuan was in school in the United States. In the picture, he seemed to have just walked out of school. At this time, he was wearing a blue suit with a logo and a school uniform. His attention was attracted by the movement behind him.
He turned sideways and looked back at the camera lens, with a reflection in his slightly green eyes, a calm expression with a slight smile, and his slightly long bangs and hair tips were gently swayed by the wind.
This photo directly ignited the fire in the hearts of all the female fans present, and the screams reached a peak.
"Oh, this picture is so good. It's so handsome." Hirai Momo excitedly reached out and grabbed the clothes of her friend next to her and kept shaking them.
Mingnan's bright eyes were also staring at the photos on the big screen. She smiled and said nothing, but secretly compared her tastes in her heart.
'Although it's really good, it still doesn't look as good as the one I saw before...'
Countless fans present were eager to grab that picture into their phones, set it directly as their screensaver, and stare at it every day.
However, everyone's photo time is about the same, and Chi Jingyuan's photo time is only a few seconds. Even though basically everyone has not seen enough, they still entered the next stage.
After singing Xia Wen's version of "Black Pearl" and "Thunder" in succession, as well as chen's solo stage, the most popular prelude recently sounded from the speakers:
"fall everyting."
"fall everyting."
"fall everyting."
"Falling down one after another."
The six members of Team K lying in the circular elevator slowly appeared in everyone's sight. Chi Jingyuan leaned on Wu Shixun, lowering his head and humming the sad prelude.
"I Need U", which can be heard in the streets and alleys recently, has added fuel to the already overwhelming atmosphere.
Although this song is not the title song, but its popularity is comparable to that of the title song, "i need u" is already familiar to everyone, and the chorus part directly caused the whole audience to sing in chorus.
"i need you girl"
"Why am I wishful thinking to bear the separation alone."
"i need you girl"
"Why can't I leave you even though I know I will get hurt?"
The other lyrics may not be sung neatly together, but the sound of "I need you girl" is overwhelming, even overpowering the speakers and even the human voice.
The audience became more excited with each chorus. In the last part of the group dance, the five members once again knelt down to form a five-pointed star, surrounding Chi Jingyuan in the middle, and reached the highest point when they stretched out their hands in worship.
, the eardrum-piercing cry has drowned out Chi Jingyuan’s singing voice.
"i need you girl"
"i need you girl"
After the final coda was sung, Team M, who had changed their clothes, came on stage and stood in the middle of the stage with Team K, who was panting slightly after the performance, and began the next stage of interaction.
"Is "I Need U" good to listen to?" Park Chanyeol asked loudly, holding the microphone.
“Sounds great!”
"Is the choreographer cool?" He pointed the microphone at the audience.
"Inside!"
"Kang Sang Mita..." All the members saluted happily to express their gratitude to the audience for their support.
"There may be some relatives who don't know yet..." Park Chanyeol added with a smile, his expression seemed to be revealing some big secret: "Let me tell you quietly, this song is still written and choreographed by the maknae.
He did it too..."
"Ahh..."
"Yuan!!"
In fact, most people know about this, but saying it at this time still makes people feel proud and happy.
Chi Jingyuan squinted his eyes and stuck out his tongue, looking a little embarrassed.
"When we were rehearsing, I really wanted to stand in the middle for the last part..."
Park Chanyeol controlled the scene very well. After making a few jokes to stir up the atmosphere, he nodded and said seriously: "Actually... we hid a treasure in the audience before the performance."
"But that treasure is really hard to find. We need to work hard with the members to find it."
"Let's look for it together."
"Where is it?"
With that said, the twelve people standing together scattered and walked away, each heading in one direction, searching along the edge of the stage, constantly interacting with the fans below.
This treasure actually refers to the fans. After a while, they will pull a female fan up from the venue to participate in the performance. XO will dance around her and perform, and they can be in close contact with them.
This is a dream VIP experience for any fan.
However, for this type of link that is prone to accidents, SM has of course prepared it in advance. The female fan who will be pulled up later has been notified and arranged before. She is sitting at the bottom left side of the stage.
They already knew where they were, and according to the drill, they would be pulled up by Chi Jingyuan after a while.
Now, the look of "looking for treasure" is also an interaction, and at the same time it heightens the atmosphere of the audience.
The members searched around, clapped hands with countless audience members, and after high-fiving, returned to the center stage, pretending to be confused and not finding it, and saying: "Where is it..."
"Can't find it..."
Returning to the main stage, Chi Jingyuan pretended to be bending down at the edge of the stage and watching the fans below walking slowly, while the fans who were close also reached out to him frantically, wanting to interact.
Chi Jingyuan smiled and high-fived all the way, and slowly moved towards the reserved fan's position.
As he was walking, he was suddenly stunned.
Because he suddenly saw Zhou Ziyu in the crowd below. She was right below, in the front row very close to him and the stage. She was smiling brightly like a fan girl, and was in harmony with the people around her.
