"Hey Yigu, I really didn't expect that it was Jingyuan, you and Juhyun Unnie who became the regular MCs of "Music Bank"..."
Backstage at "Music Bank", several people from Red Velvet met Ji Kyung-won and Bae Joo-hyun, who were walking side by side with their scripts and talking in a low voice. Seulgi glanced at these two people who seemed to get along very naturally with an inexplicable expression.
, he glanced at his partner who seemed to have been working together for a long time, and said in a slightly strange tone.
Although she had already heard the news from Ernie and her agent before, she still felt a little ridiculous after seeing it with her own eyes today.
Although they may not have a formal relationship yet, the two of them have an unusually close relationship, and now they can actually take advantage of work opportunities to chat and laugh together openly on the TV station. They don't even need to communicate by mobile phone every now and then, but every week.
We will definitely be able to meet him once.
Thinking of the company's strict requirements and strong resistance to the love affairs of its idols, and looking at the scene in front of her, she felt as if she had witnessed an absurd comedy.
It makes people speechless and a little envious.
"Are you still playing songs?"
Even though he just heard Pei Zhuxuan mention it, Chi Jingyuan still felt a little speechless when he saw a few familiar faces. He looked at the two braids tied up like a village girl, and he didn't know who gave them to her.
Kang Seulgi, who had done the modeling, blinked and asked.
He remembered that Red Velvet should have returned in mid-March. It's been a month and a half. Why are they still here singing? How shameless? When he saw it on the guest list just now, he thought he had seen it wrong.
.
"You really don't care about us at all..." Jiang Seulqi's eyes flickered to the smiling faces of the two, and she curled her lips with some dissatisfaction: "The company may want to do some more publicity, after all.
The results of this comeback are pretty good, and it’s coming to an end this week... Oh, it’s a shame we were on time to help you tune in yesterday.”
"It's just, it's really sad."
Sun Shengwan cooperated and made a disappointed expression, but he couldn't help but laugh out loud without performing twice, and waved his hands: "But by the way, you guys played really well with Big Bang. The Internet is full of news about you. Yesterday we were in
I have been watching the excitement on the forum for a long time, and Yeri even left a message to help you..."
"Hehehehe..." Seeing Chi Jingyuan looking at her, Jin Yilin made a scissor hand gesture with a smile, and Chi Jingyuan couldn't help laughing as she looked at him as if he was asking for credit.
"But after listening to both of your songs, "Love Me Right" I think it's just average. "Orientation Sniper" is really nice. We both like it."
After briefly commenting on EXO's new song, Son Seungwan couldn't help but hum: "You are my orientation sniper. The title and lyrics of this song are really great. It feels like it was written for me..."
"Hahaha……"
"Eh~~" Kang Seulgi and Jin Yelin next to them either laughed, or looked at Son Seungwan with disgust, who looked intoxicated and gibbering, and after saying a few words, they also snorted slightly.
Bae Zhuhyun smiled as she watched her members making a fuss, her eyes bent, and she was obviously in a good mood.
She also likes this song.
Since there was a lot of work, we didn’t chat for long. Ji Kyung-won and Bae Zhu-hyun said goodbye to them and went to conduct a series of behind-the-scenes interviews. Then he was called away by his assistant and staff to prepare for the rehearsal and recording of EXO’s return to the stage today.
.
Then I went to interviews with my group, rehearsed the announcement stage, and rehearsed the host lines in advance. I was busy until the afternoon.
Because the program team had previously announced the appearance of a new regular MC, and also stated that he was an idol from the same company, it aroused a lot of discussion and curiosity, and this issue of "Music Bank" also has the most popular MC at the moment.
The return of EXO, one of the two boy groups, has obviously attracted much higher attention than before. In addition to Airy and V.I.P who want to support their own idols and find trouble with their rival idols, many other fans and passers-by have changed the channel on time.
Waiting for the live show to start.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, after a burst of advertisements and preludes, "Music Bank" was played on time.
"Shengfangxian, Music, Bank!"
Amid cheers from the audience, the remaining four members of Red Velvet and EXO's Suho and Chanyeol appeared in the camera, loudly shouting the slogan "Music Bank" together, and then introduced themselves with a smile:
"Hello everyone, we are EXO."
"Anihasay, Happiness, we are red velvet."
Seeing this beginning, some viewers in front of the TV were instantly moved. Some people who had seen speculation about the MC on the Internet immediately realized that this MC from the same company was actually talking about EXO and Red Velvet!
The woman must be the one who didn’t show up, Bae Zhu Hyun. I don’t know who the man is. Could it be...
With fans and viewers worried and expecting, several people in the camera began to introduce themselves. Son Seungwan gestured to the camera like an exaggerated surprise variety artist:
"Starting today, "Music Bank" will confirm a new MC! Will our red velvet be the new host?"
"Will Wuli XO also appear in the new MC position?" Suho and Chanyeol looked at each other and started to perform with great anticipation.
"So who will be the new MC? Are you curious? There are two special people waiting on the stage now." Jin Yelin said, pouting like a fox and pointing in the direction of the stage next to her.
.
"To become the MC of "Music Bank", you must go through a necessary journey." Next it was Park Soo Young's turn.
"Ah? Is this the famous MC declaration ceremony?"
"Indeed..." Before Park Soo-rong could say anything, a sudden shout of surprise interrupted her hosting. The audience present had already seen the two people who had already stepped onto the stage and were preparing.
"Let's watch now!" At the end of the opening, six people stretched out their hands to the camera:
"Please come out!"
Under their introduction, the screen turned, and amid the cheers of the audience, Chi Jingyuan and Bae Zhuhyun appeared in the camera. The two stood close to each other, with each other's left and right hands stretched out in the middle, and accompanied by the TV
The familiar melody of "One and a Half" sounded from the subtitles on the screen, and he walked forward step by step with a smile on his face.
Chi Jingyuan's black hair is lifted up, and she wears a light-colored suit with a white lining. Bae Zhuhyun's brown curly hair hangs down from both sides. She wears a white shirt and a pink hip-hugging leather skirt. On her feet, she wears a pair of sky-high white leather boots.
The height of the two people is stretched so that they look much harmonious.
As soon as these two people appeared on the screen, they caused a burst of exclamations from many viewers.
Not because of status or popularity.
Just because it’s so beautiful and eye-catching.
The two people stood there, contrasting each other in awe, without any obvious aggression, highlighting a natural, inexplicable and harmonious sense of pairing that made people unable to take their eyes away even without the need for music.
"Xi Ba..." However, some of Chi Jingyuan's crazy fans were instantly furious. They wanted to jump directly into the screen and kick the ugly girl holding their oppa's hand.
I had been looking forward to it for a long time, but I actually saw the show on my head.
"When I saw you in the distance, I was wondering if I should go around." After the opening ceremony, the two held hands and separated on the stage to officially start the performance. Chi Jingyuan sang his part and casually appeared in front of the camera.
He glanced to the left, his clear pupils obviously containing exploration and hope.
"But I want to see you who seem to have changed, so I'm thinking about whether I should say hello."
Pei Zhuxuan sat down on the prop stool. Her thin white legs were folded together, which was a bit eye-catching. She looked a little shy and uneasy with her hands on her waist. After hesitating for a long time, she finally looked to the other side, pursed her lips and waved gently.
.
"Ahhhh..."
This was a simple interaction with eyes and gestures. The audience below could not help but scream and stared at the stage with a big smile. It felt like the show had just begun but it seemed to have entered a climax.
.
Would it be so sweet?
"With an uneasy mood, I walked towards you step by step." Chi Jingyuan walked towards Pei Zhuxuan step by step. Her gentle singing seemed to express her ignorance, but she was a little embarrassed sitting on the chair.
He turned away with a shy smile on his lips.
Under the audience's expectations and idiotic smiles, Bae Zhuhyun finally stood up from the stool during the chorus, and the two walked to the middle of the stage together, doing a few very simple dances in sync, just twisting their bodies and waving.
Compared with other exciting stages, the movements are like babbling, but the clumsy and stupid movements have not affected the effect of the stage at all. Instead, they have enhanced the light pink mood, making it clear to the audience who are already in it.
I felt the youthfulness, ignorance, and slight ambiguity between the two.
Seeing the tacit and evocative exchange of looks and interactions between these two men and women whose appearance was eye-catching, their mouths couldn't help but open wider.
When it came to the final Ending melody, Chi Jingyuan and Bae Zhuhyun politely held their hands together, gently swaying left and right to the beat of the music. Finally, Chi Jingyuan raised his hand, and Bae Zhuhyun made a Latin-like turn on the spot.
, the two of them changed from standing parallel to facing each other face to face. They smiled at each other and looked away in tacit understanding.
"Ahhhh..."
The response of this MC's confessional stage can be seen through the violent reactions and cheers of the audience at "Music Bank". The volume of the screams below was as if a popular idol's stage had just ended, loud and clear.
Surprising.
Really, whether it’s in person or in the audience watching TV, it’s really the first time to see such a good-looking pair of MCs. It’s so pleasing to the eye that people can’t take their eyes away.
PD Han Jingzhe in the directing room looked at the monitor and nodded with satisfaction. The effect of this opening stage was beyond his expectation.
He thought for a while, took off his earphones and asked the venue manager who was monitoring the data next to him, "How many are the real-time ratings?"
"It's already over 1.4 percent, and it's still rising."
"..."
Hearing this number, Han Jingzhe said nothing, but clenched his fist hard.
The real-time viewership of just the opening episode has already exceeded twice the average viewership of the past year or so. He found these two MCs who were so good-looking and eye-catching that he made the right choice.
Whatever is not suitable for the same company, and some of the resources that have been given up, I feel that it doesn't matter at this time.
"114 countries broadcast it simultaneously and watch it together."
"Shengfangxian, Music, Bank!"
After the stage ended, with cheers and a burst of BGM, Ji Kyung-won and Bae Zhu-hyun stood on the stage, each holding a script and a microphone, facing the camera and starting their debut and first place in the regular MC career of "Music Bank"
Hosted once.
"Anihasay, I am the new MC of "Music Bank", EXO. Yuan."
"Anihasay, I am Irene from red velvet."
"Irene xi, it's nice to meet you...although I've actually met you many times." After introducing himself, Chi Jingyuan turned around and looked over.
"Guy, ha..." There was only the first sentence in the script. Pei Zhuxuan responded politely according to the procedure, but after hearing the latter sentence, she couldn't help laughing and glanced at him.
"Although I have just greeted everyone on the announcement stage, I am still a little nervous and excited standing here, just like in a dream..."
"Inside."
"Actually, I really like the job of MC. I'm really happy to be the MC of "Music Bank" this time. My birthday is in May, and I became the MC of Music Bank on the first day of May. It's like
It’s as exciting as receiving the best birthday gift.” It’s my first time to say a little more, Chi Jingyuan smiled and forcibly connected himself with this show.
"Jinjia?" After hearing this, Pei Zhuxuan glanced at him with twinkling eyes, and then nodded in agreement: "Yes, in fact, Irene also has a deep connection with "Music Bank". Our red velvet is the last one.
I got it from "Music Bank" and it brought us a great honor. Thank you very much."
"Oh, if that's the case, is it fate that we can become the MCs of "Music Bank" together?"
As if he suddenly realized something, Chi Jingyuan turned his head and looked at the other person and asked tentatively.
"It's fate." Pei Zhuxuan also looked at him and replied uncertainly. The two people's eyes met for a second, and then they bent their eyes and smiled, and then turned back at the same time amid the sudden screams due to the pink atmosphere below.
, facing the camera, the upper body was tilted together, and the hands were put under the chin to make a cute flower pose:
"Naomu Naomu is suitable for Irene in "Music Bank"!"
"We will be MCing the first week of May "Music Bank" with Yuan, who is suitable for "Music Bank"! Let's take a look at the two candidates for Kchart today!
It's a coincidence that one of the candidates for "Music Bank" in the first week of May is EXID's new song "ah yeah", and EXO's "Spring Day", which is still on the waiting list.
"Spring Day" announced the end of its comeback period after only two weeks of singing competition. However, its steady sales and counterattack sound source mean that this song still often appears as a candidate for singing competition programs. Although it is facing new
Several popular groups that have returned, such as EXID, couldn't grab the top spot, but they have been releasing songs for a month and are still on the waiting list without any promotion or promotion, which is enough to prove the excellence of the songs and the popularity of XO.
"Are you nervous?"
After introducing the idol guests who were performing, Chi Jingyuan and Bae Zhuhyun walked off the stage and stood at the entrance to wait. Seeing that the other party was slightly out of breath, Chi Jingyuan smiled and expressed concern.
Pei Zhuxuan patted her chest to relax, pursed her lips slightly and nodded at him: "A little, what about you?"
"Fortunately, it's mainly because you took me well." He blinked sincerely, showing a hint of gratitude.
"cut."
Pei Zhuxuan glanced at her in complete disbelief. She looked down at the script and smiled, then raised her head and looked towards the stage with him.
Being an MC and singing by yourself are two completely different feelings. The MC should always stay near the studio, paying attention to the situation on the stage, while reviewing the next dialogue script or chatting quietly with his partner.
When I sing songs by myself, I can just lazily play the game console in the lounge after rehearsal, which is very relaxing.
Ji Kyung-won might find it a little troublesome if he were paired with someone he was not familiar with, but if it was Bae Zhu-hyun...
He leaned against the wall of the corridor at the exit of the backstage. The faint fragrance kept coming from Bae Zhuhyun who was very close to him and permeated his surroundings, gently arousing his sensitive sense of smell and perception. It complemented the familiar and delicate profile.
.
He glanced at her gently and then put her back on the stage.
The experience of two people partnering up in this place, watching the stage quietly together, and talking quietly together is actually quite interesting.
There are not many familiar faces in today’s episode. The ones Ji Kyung-won knows are EXID, AOA’s Shin Jimin and solo singer Kim Ye-rim.
The other artists are all artists whom I am not very familiar with or have not interacted with before. There is also a large girl group Oh My Girl which just debuted a few days ago. I heard that they are from the same company as B1A4, but the promotion may not be too splashy.
He had never heard of them before, and if he hadn't become MC Chi Jingyuan, he probably wouldn't have known them at all.
However, he felt that the other party's debut song was pretty good, and the continuously repeated chorus sounded quite powerful.
Except for the final selection, all of them took the stage. At other times, the MC did not need to go to the main stage when hosting. A special hosting station was built on the side of the studio for the MC to use. After the second round of hosting words, Bae Zhuhyun left first and went back to change.
After taking off her clothes, about ten minutes later she followed the other four members of red velvet back onto the stage and began to perform "Ice Cream Cake" that she had listened to countless times.
After waiting for a while, Chi Jingyuan also returned to the backstage and started to change clothes. Although this light-colored suit was very handsome, it was still somewhat different from the theme style of their return this time.
Because YG's seniors were singing today, EXO's stage was ranked second to last. After the performance of the girl group Dalshabet, the nine members of XO returned to the stage, and the previously pre-recorded video also began to be played on TV.
, many long-awaited fans and passers-by focused their attention, and even watched the comeback VCR that played at the beginning without missing a second.
Portraits of the nine members of EXO quickly appeared on the screen one after another, and finally a row of colorful letters in the middle came together:
"eback."
"Thum, thump, thump."
After the VCR finished playing, there was no pause in the music. Immediately after three drum beats, the members originally gathered in the middle seemed to fly away like a nebula and exploded instantly. Chi Jingyuan, who had previously hidden behind the crowd, suddenly jumped out, holding a microphone in his left hand.
, gently pointed at the camera with his right hand:
"You are my orientation sniper, my orientation sniper."
"Needless to say, you can feel it, from head to toe."
"You are my orientation sniper, as soon as I see you."
"I can't help but want to have you, and I will think of you before I fall asleep."
The song "Orientation Sniper" is very exciting to listen to, but the most heart-stopping and enjoyable thing is the first two lines. Chi Jingyuan's magnetic and gentle voice, with a specially made lazy singing voice, is astonishing as soon as it is heard.
In the first second, everyone was drawn into the world of music and this stage.
The tone of this song is relatively flat throughout, without much ups and downs. If there must be a killing part, it should be the first line of the opening line.
When recording, in order to make the effect satisfactory, Chi Jingyuan spent several hours in the recording studio before he was able to pass the test. Now that he thinks about it, his throat hurts.
Her hairstyle is still the same original color as the MC before. She wears a black hooded sweater with a denim jacket on top. The bottom edge of the lined long crew neck shirt emerges from under the sweater. The overall casual and sunny style has a bit of hip-hop.
I feel and look like a fashion-forward college student walking on campus and on the streets.
When watching Chi Jingyuan point at the camera and say to himself the lyrics "You are my orientation sniper", for a moment I don't know how many Aili and girls in front of the TV were thinking and brainstorming. I only felt this sentence
The words were the same as what the boy on TV said to me.
"The hair hanging down is so beautiful."
"Shy smiling eyes, dazed look."
"It looks so beautiful in my eyes, my heart beats faster."
"Why did you show up now? You are my target sniper!"
After singing the beginning, Park Chanyeol's two lines were quickly followed by Ji Kyungwon's turn. His skillful arias with great feeling echoed on the stage. As he sang, his body moved back and forth easily, and his right hand was raised in the air.
He waved his arms diagonally up and down, while the other members stood behind him in their seats and waved their arms neatly like him.
This is the most iconic choreography of this song. Although it is simple, it is very infectious.
The choreography of "Orientation Sniper" is extremely simple due to the style of the song and the long rap section. It is much simpler than the ballad "Spring Day". In addition to the many personal movements of the person in the C position, it is just a few gatherings and scattered
The movements, and the choreography is similar to radio gymnastics.
However, this song is not a dance song, and it does not require overly complicated dance to set it off. Its charm lies in the expressions of each member, in the casual and sunny fashions, in the melody and drum beats, arias and rap.
, and even more so in its song title.
Fresh, cheerful, throbbing, sweet and aftertaste.
The feeling of first love!
This is the most real and relevant feeling in the hearts of fans and audiences at this time. Listening to the strong rhythmic melody, they couldn't help but wave their hands up and down along with the stage. In the end, they couldn't help but hum along.
