He did not have the usual smile and warmth that often appeared on stage, his expression was flat, his eyes were cold and a little provocative.
It's like a superior god casually inviting everyone, "You can call me a monster," but he doesn't care about other people's opinions at all.
The dark makeup and clothing, the dim lighting, the intense music and the rising singing voice, combined with Chi Jingyuan's expressions and movements, at this moment, this close-up before the chorus brought fans and audiences to
They have a very strong sense of impact.
"Ahhhh..."
The screams were so tacit that I suddenly remembered that the fans who were enjoying the stage seriously were shocked by this killing part and could not contain their excitement.
And obviously not just ordinary fans, Jin Zhini, who was watching the live broadcast in the practice room, was also stunned by A. The live broadcast had a close-up of the camera, which seemed to bring a stronger feeling than the live broadcast. She felt that the close-up of Chi Jingyuan was a part of the impact.
Sex is too strong.
Just as she was about to say something, another exclamation came from beside her:
"Wow, this move..."
She quickly composed herself, lowered her head and looked over:
After Chi Jingyuan finished singing his part, he stood in the C position. "Monster" directly entered the climax of the chorus, with a 'herringbone' formation lined up, under the lead dancer in the C position.
An amazing group dance began.
“I’m creeping in your heart babe”
Cross your arms, shake your fingers, cross your legs, raise one foot in the air and step on the ground continuously.
All kinds of fierce choreography are continuously displayed extremely smoothly. At a glance, everyone's movements are at the same frequency. Just looking at it makes you feel that it is very difficult. The quite distinctive choreography directly interprets the uniform dance of the swordsmen.
The atmosphere on the stage reached a climax.
Among the entire stage, Chi Jingyuan, who is standing in the center and leading the dance, is the most eye-catching. He has a tall and smooth figure, dark makeup and costumes, especially that face. After losing the signature smile of the past and becoming aloof, it embodies a different personality.
A completely different feeling, indifference is tinged with an aggressiveness that excites fans.
At this time, although there were nine people on the stage, the one in the C position was really eye-catching. His face alone was so handsome that people admired him. Some of his movements were made to look better, which kept many people's eyes fixed on him.
It can't be moved away from him at all.
It's a pity that because today is a showcase, we can't put on makeup in advance, and it's too late to change clothes, so for this first stage, Chi Jingyuan and others didn't wear the battle-damaged makeup that is the most distinctive feature of this comeback.
Otherwise, just for Chi Jingyuan's part, I don't know how many people would be added to the circle just for her beauty.
After a series of wonderful group dances, the team on the left side of the 'human' shape suddenly stepped out neatly under the leadership of Chi Jingyuan.
The team on the right did not follow, but passed directly through the middle from the opposite direction. The 'herringbone' formation that was very neat just now seemed chaotic but under the concise and straightforward movement, many people were not there yet.
Once I saw what was going on, it instantly became an 'X' position.
And X happens to be the character of EXO’s team name.
"Oh mo!"
The audience who saw it clearly couldn't help but exclaimed immediately. After the "monster" stage started, it was full of surprises. I always felt that I couldn't get enough of it. At this time, the 'X'-shaped choreography was even more exciting.
It's amazing, it's done so smoothly, it's really cool.
Looking further down, with the music and singing, as the whole choreography is displayed, more and more viewers are excited and more and more satisfied with the stage of this song.
Unlike most other boy groups’ choreography, stage and even music, people can roughly know what is going on after just two glances. However, this time EXO showed many very novel and avant-garde moves on the stage of "Monster"
and positioning, very imaginative.
This is something that is hard to see in some boy band performances. Even for fans and audiences in the dance-oriented Kpop music industry, it is a performance that can surprise them.
The choreography for "Monster" this time is a collaboration with a very powerful choreography team from SM and Ami. They worked together around the theme and style of the song and the characteristics of EXO. Many of the movements and moves are very exciting.
It is exciting and has a strong style, which is also the soul of this dance music.
Stand in a herringbone position, cross your legs and step on the ground four times in a row without moving your upper body.
The entire team moves in an X shape.
One person, Jin Junmian, rushed forward, while the other eight swayed with their backs to the crowd.
Backwards around the center line and around the stage, changing positions very smoothly like panning.
Sit on the ground and turn on the spot using the palms of your hands as the fulcrum.
Park Chanyeol even performed acrobatics, jumping directly from the human ladder set up by several members of Oh Sehun and flying past, jumping to the front of the stage like a flying fish and started rapping.
Every wonderful move can almost trigger a burst of wanton cheers and screams. Although it is only the first time to watch the performance of this song, the standard frequency of support and the unified vocabulary of support among fans have not yet been developed.
, but this is not needed. The atmosphere on this first stage is already about to explode, and the reaction in the live broadcast room is not much different.
At the end of Park Chanyeol and Oh Sehun's rap duet, the drumbeat and rhythm became faster and faster, and when they were about to reach a peak and seemed about to explode, all the music suddenly stopped and stopped.
.
At this moment, Chi Jingyuan's shouting voice sounded again, ethereal and eye-catching in the quiet accompaniment, with a hint of madness, and appeared in everyone's hearts in an instant:
"You can call me monster!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The next second, the intense music sounded again, seamlessly, as if it had never stopped. There was also an explosion of fireworks.
Accompanied by a high-five from Chi Jingyuan and Kim Jong-in in the center of the stage, the last nine people started a group dance of the last chorus, and the stage performance of the entire song reached its peak.
After the passionate chorus, the melody suddenly became deeper at the ending.
"Creeping creeping creeping."
"Creeping creeping creeping."
In the dim light, they sang the lyrics softly, and the melodious tones kept repeating, and their voices became lower and lower, as if they were telling something.
Cold-blooded monsters, after hunting in the emotional hunting ground, have to return to their nests to rest.
At the end of the stage, everyone walked around and performed the ending action. Kim Junmyeon and Kim Minseok squatted in front, and the other seven people stood behind. Ji Kyungyuan stood in the middle to the right, against the light, and raised the final stage with the others.
He lowered his chin and breathed lightly.
One second later, the stage ends and the lights come on.
Accompanied by this, was the waving Ali stick that was about to fly out, and the deafening cheers of the two thousand spectators at the scene.
"Ahhhhh..."
"Ahhhh..."
"Do you like this song?"
"Inside!"
"Are you satisfied?"
"satisfy!"
Feeling the shocking cheers, Chi Jingyuan stood in a row with other members on the stage, sweat dripping from his forehead, and water droplets streaked along his cheeks and dripped on the ground.
The temperature has been getting higher and higher since June. After performing such an intense dance while wearing two layers of stage clothes, his whole body felt extremely hot, and it felt like his long sleeves were soaked with sweat.
But even though it was very hot and a little tired now, he couldn't help but chuckle when he saw the reaction from the audience.
To be honest, although I am very confident in myself and the group, I still feel a little nervous every time I release a new album or new work in front of the audience. It is a kind of work being checked and evaluated by teachers or reviewers.
The unique anxiety at the time.
But at this time, the enthusiasm of the audience gave him great encouragement and he felt relieved.
The performance of the two title songs was completed, and the other tracks included in this album were also introduced. The main task of this showcase has been completed. We chatted for a while and even shared a piece of the third album together.
After the "Memorial Cake", the live broadcast came to an end, and Kim Junmyeon took the lead in saying goodbye.
"Then this showcase is almost over."
"I was really happy to watch the whole live broadcast. In addition to the satisfying songs, the interaction between the members was really cute."
""Monster" is simply my god! The arrangement is really amazing. In my mind, it is the top 1 song of the group!"
"It's not even TOP 1. "Monster" is obviously a dance song with a strong style. It's not easy for this kind of song to become a hit song, but this comeback is definitely the pinnacle of EXO since their debut. There's no running away, every member is
He's a little too handsome."
"The choreography and arrangement of "Monster" are amazing. This stage alone is a level ahead of other boy bands. The dark style this time is really impressive."
"I'm just a stranger, I have no idea about EXO, I just watched it for a while, but "Miss You" is really good, so I listened to it once. I can basically sing the chorus part, and Chi Jingyuan's rap is also very good. Just now
I have already placed an order to pre-order the album, and I will have to cycle the singles for at least a week after the sound source comes out.”
"I'm a new fan. I just watched the showcase. Although the Obamas and the stage are really handsome, will a ballad or a dance song affect my performance?"
"I can only say that new fans are still inexperienced. If you are an EXO fan, the last thing you need to worry about is your grades."
The popularity is getting higher and higher. Even before the album has been released and the MV has not been released, it has already dominated several hot searches. The most eye-catching ones are #EXO's third album and #EXO's "monster".
There are actually some related hot searches like #Yuanshuai is too handsome, #Yuan said to call him monster.
That is to say, Chi Jingyuan didn't have time to see it right now, otherwise his face would have been red for a while.
And two hours later, when the discussion on the Internet was the most enthusiastic and fans were the most eager, SM released all the sound sources and MV of EXO's regular third album "EX'ACT" on time. Fans who had been waiting anxiously for who knows how long
After refreshing the web page countless times, we clicked in immediately.
This time the MV for "Missing You" is relatively independent, shot in the style of a ballad, without incorporating more concepts and metaphors, while the concept of the MV for "Monster" continues last year's second album, through various photography
The techniques and subtle hints show what happened to EXO after they lost their superpowers.
In the MV, flashbacks are used to show the struggle and powerlessness of all the members when they lost their superpowers and were captured. The scenes of each member being injured in the battle and being caught and locked up also made people despair, and the final rescue also sublimated
The theme of shouldering each other's destiny, and the ending of everyone escaping, walking side by side against the light, into the deep darkness with no future, also moved many people, and immediately became the new favorite of many fans.
The plot and concept are of the same origin, and fans who like it love it very much. Every time I explore, it feels like a treasure hunt. I am very excited when I get to that point, and I feel that my idol's concept is superior to others.
But there are actually a lot of people who don't care. Many people only know the super power memes of EXO. After all, they are so famous and it is the symbol of the entire group. However, in other times, they don't understand the specific concept of the album at all and are not interested in it. Every time
Listen to the music purely with appreciation and watch the MV.
This time, the MV for "Monster" has achieved a balance to a certain extent. Whether it is the concept, dance, or even the entire MV, it is excellent. The first feeling after watching the MV is that this MV was shot
It's really very attentive, full of avant-garde concepts and lens switching. You can tell at a glance that a lot of resources have been invested in the various costume shapes and backgrounds. The overall lens is full of texture, without any perfunctory or cheap feeling. At a glance, it is different from other
The boy band's MV has clearly set a new level in every aspect.
After appreciating it, whether you are a fan or not, you can only sigh:
This is the level that a top-level boy group MV should be.
"You're so handsome, lip ring, face necklace, battle-damaged makeup...ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh."
"The back view at the end is really amazing. I am really good at SM."
"I don't know how the results are. The popularity of real-time listening must have exploded, right? Why hasn't the audio source been released yet?"
As fans frantically scrolled through YouTube and kept replaying, the charts of major music sources on the peninsula were refreshed within an hour. "Monster" on the eight major music charts had a real-time all-kill, "Miss" ranked second, and ten songs all aired on seven charts.
top ten,
With the release of the album, the ranking of the lead song "Fire", which has been released for three weeks, also began to soar, and it directly re-entered the inner ring, occupying the top spot together with other album songs. Looking from top to bottom on the Melon real-time chart, they are all the same
The logo for the third album of "EX'ACT", the singer's name is also EXO in the same row,
No matter how popular the songs were a day ago or how high the number of listeners was, at this moment they were all suppressed by an album. Although the rankings may fluctuate after the heat has passed, they may rise or change, but at this moment the entire list is
The image of the top ten names all being from the same group still gives people a lot of shock, and unconsciously creates a feeling of the return of the king.
As long as we come back, in the world of Kpop, you will be overwhelmed by me.
However, when many people saw the singer's name, they thought it was normal and nothing unexpected. Even the anti-fans could only secretly curse with jealousy:
'The rubbish rules of Guabang are not fair at all. Having more fans will give you an advantage. When will it be revised?'
‘The local group only relies on fans. Don’t a group of female data workers have nothing to do every day? Will SM pay you wages? Does the official not care? Is there any justice? Kpop will be over sooner or later!!’
'It's over! It's been over since last year!'
‘It means our big stick has not returned, otherwise it will make you look good.’ and other sarcastic remarks and YY.
When SM artists' music sources are becoming increasingly bleak, EXO, a boy group, has stood up to save the entire company's poor reputation in terms of music sources through its own super popularity. In the music industry, the boy group's music sources are generally inferior.
Unknowingly, a picture appeared that made people laugh, but also secretly surprised them.
