This award is of average value. It is an award ceremony in the Peninsula fashion industry. The organizer is cj e&m, which is the same production company as "Reply 1997", so Chi Jingyuan must participate.
After receiving the "Fashion Idol Award" from their class with Jung Eun-ji, Chi Kyung-won didn't even return to his dormitory and took a flight overnight to go to Neon.
Chi Jingyuan feels that this 'Fashion Idol Award' is a bit like a participation award. There are a total of ten groups of artists who have won awards, and he and Jung Eunji are one group together.
However, the status and fame of the other winners are quite impressive, such as Lim Soo-jung, Jang Dong-gun, Ha Jung-woo, etc., all of whom are famous actors on the peninsula.
After arriving at Neon, he took the time to rest for a while. The family concert on the 26th was very tight, and he had to get up in the morning to put on makeup and rehearse.
The patterns of these family concerts are not much different. Anyway, EXO's stages are basically the same, and there is nothing that requires special preparation.
After the concert, they rested for a night and flew back to the peninsula the next morning. There are commercial performances and announcements to be run tomorrow, and there is also the show stage on the 29th.
Chi Jingyuan is still slightly afraid of heights. He has been flying back and forth countless times in the past few days, which is quite torture.
Team M is also back together, their recent schedule has come to an end, and Luhan and Kim Jong-in recently collaborated with several seniors in the company on a song "maxstep".
This song is a promotional song created by SM for Hyundai Company. Several popular groups from the company each came up with their own talents to form a temporary group, and worked together to complete the recording and stage of the entire song.
Including Girls' Generation's Hyoyeon, Sparkle's Lee Taemin, SJ's Lee Hyuk-jae, and EXO's Luhan and Kim Jong-in.
In fact, according to EXO's current popularity and celebrity status, these two people are somewhat incompatible with the previous seniors. Letting them join this temporary group can be regarded as the company's behavior of being a junior and pushing them.
The company has promoted members in both exo teams. Team M is Luhan, and team K is Kim Jong-in. These two people are better than others in terms of released materials, exposure, personal information and even stage c-shots and killing parts.
Obviously more.
They are the popular points that the company originally hoped to build among the two teams. It hopes that after they become the most popular in the team, they will bring enough attention and then feed back to the entire team.
It's a pity that the push was pushed, and a lot of resources were released, but the expected harvest was not achieved.
The current situation is that the most popular member of the EXO team is Ji Jingyuan. Among all the members, his popularity has completely dropped. The second place is far behind him, and he is in a state of unparalleled success.
Chi Jingyuan was a member of the group two months before their debut, and the company had already made plans for the promotion and promotion of exo after their debut. The company did not change the plan after Chi Jingyuan joined, and at that time
They don't know Chi Jingyuan very well either.
Among the two songs in the mini-album MV, Chi Kyung-yuan did not have the most part and C-shots. It can only be regarded as a little above average. There was also very little exposure before the debut. There was only one debut trailer video, and Luhan
, Kim Jong-in’s constant exposure and the large number of debut trailer videos are completely incomparable.
Among them, Chi Jingyuan joined the company in a hurry. It has something to do with the tight schedule for his debut and the lack of time to film. There are also some reasons why the company did not promote him.
But to the company's expectation, after Chi Jingyuan's trailer video was released, exo's popularity was no longer in their control. Just one video brought a considerable degree of exposure and popularity to Chi Jingyuan
, and also attracted him the first batch of die-hard fans.
This was even more true after their official debut. Because the song's style and appearance design were not popular, the title song did not actually bring much popularity to the members. When everyone was ridiculed by the group, only Ji Jingyuan
Growing against the trend.
This is especially true after the broadcast of "Reply 1997". The popular TV series brought a lot of popularity and enthusiasm, and also brought a lot of new fans and national awareness. Now many people do not pay attention to boy bands.
Everyone only knows that Yun Yunzai is played by Ji Jingyuan, but they don’t know the group EXO he is from.
It can only be said that in the entertainment industry, to a certain extent, small success depends on support, and big success depends on life.
Of course, there are also many people who pay attention to the EXO group because of Chi Jingyuan, which can be regarded as a kind of popularity feedback.
At present, his popularity alone accounts for more than half of the entire team. Several other popular members in the team can only smell his exhaust, and some of them can't even see tire tracks.
This is actually abnormal and unhealthy for a group. Although the company is excited about Chi Jingyuan's popularity, the economic benefits he brings and the benefits he brings to the team, it is also very anxious to increase the popularity of other members, at least to make them
The popularity will not be too far off, so that this group will not be reduced to Chi Jingyuan and his 11 backup dancers.
In addition to the original policy of mainly promoting Luhan and Kim Jong-in, we are also trying to find ways to promote other members.
This temporary combination is another attempt.
Judging from the current situation, Luhan is indeed very popular. It can be said that only behind Chi Jingyuan in the team, he is not inferior to other local popular members. The popularity in Xia Guo is even more intense.
Kim Jong-in is a lot worse. I don’t know why. Even though he has a lot of exposure and as a main dancer, he has a lot of c-parts on stage, but it seems that many fans don’t like him. Online
There are also many people complaining about his ugly appearance.
Even Wu Sehun and Park Chanyeol, who were not recommended much, have caught up with him because of their good looks, and their popularity is not much lower than him.
But it’s not too surprising, because appearance is one of the core competitiveness of idol groups.
Improving the popularity of other members and the group as a whole is not a simple matter. Unless there is a hit song that makes the entire group gain huge popularity, exo can catch up with its popularity and truly start to break out of the industry under the name exo.
Not just 'the group that Chi Jingyuan comes from'.
…………
Time has entered November, which is the end of the last two months of the year.
The day before yesterday, "maxstep", a collaboration with SM's temporary group, was officially released. The response was average and the popularity was not very high. It was quickly submerged among many new songs.
The main reason is that the song is average and the melody is not attractive. It is full of electronic music and rapid drum beats. Not only does it not sound fashionable, but it makes people feel a little noisy.
Although the members of this temporary group are all from popular groups, they are not the most popular members of their respective groups, so they are not particularly attractive.
The final problem is that songs cannot lead people, and people cannot lead songs.
This attempt is not considered a success, and the company will probably be a little disappointed.
At this time, all twelve members of EXO were gathered in the practice room, listening to several teachers instructing them.
They are about to start preparing for several important year-end stages.
