"You said you wanted to look at the stars, so you dragged me away."
After a month, Chi Jingyuan came to Neon again to participate in SM Twon, but the location was changed from Tokyo Dome to Osaka Dome.
This time the two performances at the Osaka Dome are also the last performances of the SM TOWN family concert in 2016.
Familiar brisk music echoed around. Under the watchful eye of the on-site PD, Ji Kyung-won, Kang Seul-gi and Park Chanyeol were rehearsing the song "Rooftop Room" on the stage of Osaka Dome.
Although they are not the original trio of the song festival, the song was performed vividly by these three people after the rearrangement, and it seems that the audience here likes this kind of band style song very much. Since "Rooftop Room"
》After this song was put on SM TOWN as a special stage, the effect and response every time it was performed was very good, and the support was obviously higher.
It’s so good that Chi Jingyuan is considering whether to release a Japanese version of this song
"Thanks for your hard work."
At the end of the stage rehearsal, the three of them saluted and thanked the staff, then quickly walked off the stage towards the backstage. Chi Kyung-won glanced at Jiang Seulqi next to him, and then gave Park Chanyeol a gentle wink.
And Park Chanyeol also got the idea instantly. He seemed to have remembered something. After saying hello to the two of them as if something was wrong, he quickly left with quick strides. In an instant, only Chi Jingyuan and Jiang Seulgi were left.
Go backstage.
Chi Jingyuan secretly praised it in his heart... In this kind of situation, working with a partner like Park Chanyeol is really a tacit understanding.
"what?"
Although she didn't see the eyes of the two people, she felt the gaze from the side. Jiang Seqi paused, took a step back, and glanced at Chi Jingyuan warily: "Do you want to find out from me?
What’s going on with Joohyun Unnie?”
"What's your reaction?"
Chi Jingyuan was a little dissatisfied with Jiang Seulqi's reaction: "What's the point of prying? Didn't I just meet her backstage?"
As for that, it makes me want to do something...and the word 'inquiry' is too ugly, it's just a chat between relatives and friends.
Chi Jingyuan frowned, then waved his hand, looked ahead, and asked casually: "You are still practicing these days?"
"Pfft..."
Jiang Seqi suddenly laughed, covered her mouth and puffed out her cheeks, looking at Chi Jingyuan, with crooked eyes: "Your tone is so funny... I've never seen you like this before."
"ah!"
Being stared at and laughing non-stop by this "silly" relative, even with Chi Jingyuan's mentality, he couldn't bear it and couldn't help but glare at her fiercely.
It's just that Jiang Seulqi wasn't afraid of him at all. This stern look in her eyes made her smile even more.
"If you want to ask, just say it..." After laughing twice, Jiang Seqi patted him: "Didn't I tell you when I sent a text message the day before yesterday? I went home that day and was not in the dormitory. There was only Sheng in the dormitory.
I was alone, and I heard her say that Joohyun Unni cried so much when she went back, that no matter how hard she tried to persuade her, it was useless..."
As she said that, she glanced at Chi Jingyuan secretly with a somewhat unkind look, then shrugged and continued: "
"But when Xiu Rong and the others returned to the dormitory the next day, they didn't cry again. They were talking and laughing, and it was no different from before. It was impossible to tell that... there was something wrong with you."
Chi Jingyuan nodded slowly when he heard this... Of course he knew that Pei Zhuxuan couldn't be the same as before. He couldn't see that something was wrong, which was the biggest problem.
It's better to have spies.
After a few seconds of silence, Jiang Seulqi poked him quietly with her elbow, bringing Chi Jingyuan back to his senses, who was thinking about something, and then asked in a tentative tone in a low voice: "Jingyuan...you and Zhu
Is Hyun Unnie really separated?"
"That's it for the time being." Chi Jingyuan didn't hide anything from his close friends.
"For the time being?" After chewing the word for a while, Jiang Seulqi seemed to have thought about it: "It means that it is still possible in the future..."
"Who knows?"
Chi Jingyuan shrugged and looked at the staff with work badges who were hurriedly passing by in front of him. He didn't know why he suddenly didn't want to talk about this.
No matter what happens in the future, since we are separated now, it is enough to simply ask about the situation and show concern.
He has experienced too many breakups, both active and passive. Although this time it was indeed beyond his control, there was no need to dwell on it all the time.
He is Chi Jingyuan...
"By the way, do you want to eat?"
Jiang Seqi seemed to notice it, so she didn't continue to talk about the matter. Instead, she rummaged through the pockets of her private server and took out two lollipops. After asking, she took the initiative to hand over one.
"You also like to bring snacks with you now?"
Chi Jingyuan reached out to take it, glanced at the package, opened it and put it in his mouth, and said interestingly: "This brand...isn't it one that our XO has endorsed before? I also liked to eat it for a while.
"
"I didn't buy it, I don't really like bringing snacks..." Jiang Seulqi looked at Chi Jingyuan who was happily eating a lollipop, showing her signature innocent smile, but her eyes seemed to be flashing with cunning, as if
Just waiting for him to ask this question: "Juhyun Oni bought them before and gave me a few when I was packing my things yesterday."
"you……"
Of course Chi Jingyuan understood what she meant. He turned to look at Jiang Seqi's pretending to be naive but was actually a smart smile, and couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"never mind,……."
After thinking about it, Chi Jingyuan rolled the candy in his mouth, remembering the wall he encountered with another relative of the same age two days ago. The sweet taste of mango comforted him: "Seulqi, can you remember to give me a lollipop?"
It’s already very good. Shengwan and I sent text messages a few days ago and she didn’t even reply to mine..."
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sigh: "Now, among the few of us, we are the only two who are in the same group, and Sun Shengwan is already on the other side."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As expected of a veteran member of the 94 line, Ji Kyung-won is very satisfied with Kang Seul-gi...unlike the other one, who has been brainwashed by Bae Joo-hyun.
When they first met, I knew that Ernie, who was holding her in his arms, was unsteady.
"Pooh!"
However, Chi Jingyuan's heart-warming sigh made Jiang Seqi unable to bear it any longer. She stopped pretending to be stupid, frowned in disgust, stretched out her leg and gave her a weak kick:
"Yi~ Who is with you? I won't be with you."
…………
At this time, in EXO's lounge, assistants and managers were sitting in the corner, and a few other scattered members were playing with their mobile phones. Kim Junmyeon and Byun Baekhyun were sitting on the sofa holding a selfie stick.
He was chirping and looking at the camera while doing the V live broadcast.
The news of the re-release of the album released today, especially the concept photo of "Blood, Sweat and Tears" caused a big stir among fans. Although it is already common for EXO, the interest in this concept photo has generated a lot of enthusiasm.
Even SM itself didn't expect it.
After arriving at Neon, Kim Jun-myeon and several others, who were paying attention to the fans on the peninsula, watched the live broadcast at the instruction of their manager, communicated with the fans, and made some small spoilers.
"...Hey Roben, guess where we are now... Dang Dang Dang Dang! We are now backstage at the Osaka Dome. There is a SM TOWN concert tonight."
"Oh, everyone has watched today's news..."
Although EXO's live broadcasts on V LIVE are not very frequent, they are the largest traffic on the live broadcast channel. At present, almost all the live broadcast data records of V LIVE are created by EXO. Coupled with the popularity of today's news, it is only
Not long after the live broadcast was started, the live broadcast room was already full of people. Jin Jun forced the two of them to look at the screen, blinking to see clearly the barrage that was flowing too fast.
"Talk about this return?"
Seeing that many people were asking about the news just announced today, Kim Junmyun and Byun Baekhyun looked at each other. They started the live broadcast to say this: "In fact, we started preparing for this comeback very early, and we will still use it."
In the form of a double hit, both title songs were voted for by ourselves..."
"Let's talk about "Blood, Sweat and Tears", the style is so cool!!"
"'Blood, Sweat and Tears'" Byun Baekhyun, who is very talented in live broadcasting, smiled and started talking: "There are so many things I can say about this song, this song is PD... hyung, you can say
Bar?"
Halfway through, he pretended to look in the direction of Li Chenghuan and asked if he could reveal it in advance. After receiving confirmation, he nodded exaggeratedly and continued: "This song is an arrangement jointly produced by PDOGG producer and Jingyuan
, and all EXO members participated in writing the lyrics...it is a song that is really made with great care."
As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows and showed off to the camera: "There are a few words in it that I wrote."
This news really excited the fans, and as soon as he opened his mouth, the messages exploded.
It's so normal for Chi Jingyuan to participate in composing music. All Aili has long been used to it...but this is the first time that all EXO members have participated in composing lyrics. This kind of stunt immediately aroused the expectations of all fans.
feel.
"Can you sing a part? I'm really curious."
"Daihatsu! The title song composed by the oppas themselves!!"
"I can't say much else now..."
The number of comments skyrocketed, but there were many questions asking for specific details, but Baekhyun couldn't say much. It took him a long time to pick out a message and read it out: "This version of the promotional photos for "Blood, Sweat, and Tears" was taken very well? Haha, I remember it.
In order to take this photo, the company prepared dozens of suits and various accessories, and it only took us an hour or two to change clothes..."
"Well, it was already very late when we were shooting the cover. We were all very tired after a day of shooting... but because there were so many clothes, it was dazzling and all the members were very interested, so they didn't feel sleepy."
Jin Junmian recalled what he said, nodded and said a little.
"By the way, bro." Bian Baekhyun turned around and asked, "Whose suit do you think looks best in this concept photo? If you had to choose, whose suit would you like to wear?"
"Well, you and Jingyuan's clothes are the best. If you want to wear them..."
The captain's eyes wandered and he hesitated for a while, then he told the truth: "It's better to wear the maknae's. I always feel that he looks particularly good in this kind of suit."
"I also think that Cody Nuna is really biased..."
Because the song has not been officially released yet, we cannot say too much about spoilers. After answering some questions that could be answered, the two began to read the messages and chat:
"What have you been doing recently? I just watched "Train to Busan" with Chen and Xiumin a few days ago. Was it good? Of course it was good. The zombies and human relationships were filmed really well. Gong Yooxi's acting was great. We also
I’ll find some time to go see it again before I prepare to return.”
Jin Junmian enthusiastically talked about his thoughts after watching "Train to Busan", and then saw a message with sharp eyes, and immediately read it out: "Why don't you call Yuan together? Of course I did, but he said he
I don’t have time…actually I’m just too lazy to go.”
Bian Baixian interjected a few words, looking very understanding: "Brother, if you ask him to watch a cartoon, he will probably go..."
"In that case, it will be our turn and we will run out of time..."
Unable to help but laugh twice, Jin Jun pursed his lips and shook his head in disgust: "That's what the maknae is like, a very boring person."
The topic of conversation turned to Chi Jingyuan, which immediately aroused the interest of many fans. They left messages quickly and asked various questions.
"Is Yuan boring?"
"Why do you say that!!"
"It's not that he is boring. Jingyuan people are actually very nice. They know a lot of things, including archery, horse riding, surfing, etc. He can even skateboard. He is also very interesting to talk to. He is a person who makes people feel relaxed when getting along with him.
, very interesting character..."
First he corrected what he had just said, and then Jin Junmian shrugged: "But if he is not interested in many things, he will not bother to talk to you. Usually when he is free, he will ask him to go out to play together without going out. He just likes to stay alone.
Playing games in the dormitory.”
"Ah? Going out for a bike ride?"
At this time, Bian Baekhyun suddenly got into trouble and began to imitate how they invited the maknae to go out to play, but Chi Jingyuan refused.
He first made a sound of surprise, then his extremely vivid eyes wandered around, and finally squeezed out a sincere smile. He perfectly imitated Chi Jingyuan's look of being too lazy to go out and make excuses: "Brother, I just have something to do now, I will do it next time!"
"Ha ha……"
Kim Junmyun laughed out loud along with the fans watching the live broadcast.
After finishing his cheap imitation, Baekhyun thought for two seconds, looked at the captain and asked: "The only person who can stably call Jingyuan out is to eat, right?"
"I think so too……"
The two of them sang and harmonized Chi Jingyuan, and Jin Junmian started to read the message again with a smile:
"Where did Yuan go? Kyungwon and Chanyeol went to the rehearsal for "Rooftop Room"...why the two of them? This is a special stage of SM TOWN. It is a collaboration between Kyungwon, Chanyeol and Seulgi. It is wonderful.
The stage.”
"Speaking of cooperation..."
As if he remembered something, just when Jin Junmian was about to talk about another matter, the door to the lounge was suddenly pushed open. When they saw the faces walking in, the two live broadcasters' eyes suddenly lit up and they turned over their phones to talk to each other.
.
Chi Jingyuan, dressed in dark private clothes, wearing black-rimmed glasses, bulging his cheeks and holding a lollipop, instantly appeared in the camera.
Chi Jingyuan had just walked in, and while he was happily eating a lollipop, he felt a strange gaze looking at him. Then Jin Junmian, who was sitting on the sofa, ran over with a selfie stick and pointed the camera at him.
Himself, he was still shouting: "Yuan xi, please say hello to the V live audience!"
Chi Jingyuan, who was facing the camera, blinked and was stunned for a second. He suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness filling his heart. He flattened his bulging cheeks, bit off the candy stick in his mouth, and smiled at the camera.
He waved his hand:
"Aniha Saiyo, EXO.Yuan Yimi~"
…………
SM TOWN, which lasted two consecutive days, came to a successful conclusion after mobilizing more than 100,000 viewers. All the artists did not stay and took a flight back to Seoul on the 14th.
It's just that EXO didn't join the main group because they still had scheduled fan activities to complete.
Although he made his debut in Neon last year, he didn't have much local schedule. He only released an album and participated in a few shows to promote it.
At that time, the group's popularity was soaring, and both China and South Korea were already too busy with activities. Even if they debuted, they wouldn't have much time to work on Neon. SM actually didn't pay much attention to the market here.
However, since losing the mainland market, SM has learned from the experience and held many meetings and discussions. It has lost its original arrogance and has determined that the focus of EXO's next activities will shift to Neon and Ami.
Ami's activities are scheduled to start next year and the next album, while Neon's side has increased a lot since the second half of this year, and a new Japanese album has also been put on the agenda.
After another busy day in Osaka, the neon trip was finally completed. The eight members of EXO immediately dispersed and went their separate ways. Park Chanyeol took the two of them to experience the nightlife, while Chi Kyung-won followed his roommates Line and Kim.
Jun Mian and the four of them came out to take a stroll on the street.
Recently, there are most Neon Summer activities. When I went to Tokyo for SM TOWN last month, Chi Jingyuan was very interested, but I didn’t go out to play because of the tight time. This time, the event just ended and I didn’t have much to do.
After two days here, Osaka seems to be more lively than Tokyo. The few of us hit it off immediately, and after dinner, they all hung out together before it got dark.
"It's really lively... We were working on this summer festival when we came last month. How long will it last this time?"
Looking at the bustling crowds on the road ahead, with many men and women wearing traditional clothes on both sides of the road, Wu Shixun looked around and kept asking questions.
At this time, several of them were in Shinkitano, Yodogawa District, Osaka... They came out to play and read the travel guide. It is said that there will be a fireworks display here around 7:40 tonight, and I heard it is very lively.
I don’t know if it’s true or not. There are many things that are not written in the travel guide. They also listened to the hotel staff’s dictation.
This place is not close to their hotel in the West District, but the transportation is very convenient. It only takes less than thirty minutes to take the tram.
"July to the end of August...it should be over in a few days."
Chi Jingyuan also looked around with interest and answered uncertainly.
All his knowledge about these summer festivals came from anime and the travel guide he just watched. It was his first time to come to such a place to participate in such an event.
It was still early, the sky was still bright, and there were not too many people on both sides of the street, but at this time he felt the lively atmosphere and hot temperature around him, and listened to the thunderous sound of countless people nearby.
The sound caused a restless excitement in his heart.
I have to say that EXO's popularity in Neon is indeed much lower than that on the peninsula. It can be seen from the fact that a few people got off the car and walked on the road for a while, but no one recognized them.
Although "Boy with Luv" is very popular in Neon, it is the most popular song of Korean groups here in recent years. EXO is also one of the most popular boy groups in Kpop, but after all, EXO still has too few activities here.
, have not appeared on many programs, and their popularity is basically concentrated among the fan base. Beyond this range, there are very few people who can recognize them at a glance.
Originally, Oh Se-hun pretended to wear a baseball cap and a mask, but after getting off the bus, he found that no one cared about him. Even Kim Jun-myeon, who was completely unpretended, no one knew him. After wearing it for a while, he felt too hot.
It didn't work, so I took it off angrily.
However, no one knew them and they were very happy. A few people were very happy.
"Oh, that squid looks good..."
Jin Junmian looked at a small cart stall with a long queue in front of him. After smelling the smell, his eyes lit up and he walked over.
Because it was my first time here and I had no experience, I was afraid of wasting time for a few people to eat, so I just casually dealt with it in the hotel. I specially reserved my stomach to try the snacks here.
Chi Jingyuan's attention was attracted by a stall selling traditional handicrafts next to him. After taking a few glances at the ceramics on the frame, he wandered behind the members and followed them.
And at this moment, he suddenly felt a shock in his pocket and his cell phone rang.
