As soon as the Album of the Year was over, the nine members of EXO returned to the artist booth. Before they could sit down, the two award presenters, An Seung Ho and Kim Ji Won, started chatting awkwardly again, preparing to start awarding the second grand award, Song of the Year.
This award is interesting. Compared to the album of the year, which has no suspense, the song of the year, which is selected based on sound source as the main indicator, has always been the weakness of boy groups like EXO. When it comes to sound source, their usual unstoppable momentum suddenly wanes.
Some.
Although EXO is still strong this year, they are only one of the men's groups. Last year's summit meeting of the two major boy groups brought about the boy group's big year has been left in the past. Judging from the performance of idols in the music industry throughout the year
This year is obviously the year when the new generation of girl groups explodes in popularity.
Twice’s hit “Cheer Up” this year topped Melon’s annual chart, while GFriend’s “Time Passes” followed closely at second place. The momentum of these two new girl groups, which only debuted last year, this year is simply scary, and both have a
The hit songs that soared to the sky were two in a row, and they were popular from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. In this year when some old groups disappeared, it was only the second year after their debut that they already had the potential to reach the top.
In addition, there are some solo singers whose music sources are obscure. For example, Zico's "You Are You, I Am Me" ranked eighth on the annual list, which is also very competitive.
Several of EXO's dance music hits are ranked in the middle and upper sections of the annual charts, which are a little behind these others. However, one of their hit songs "Miss You" has a very good sound source performance. It is slightly less explosive but has great staying power. It has always been
They are all hovering in the top ten of the annual list. After entering winter, this song with a very winter atmosphere has obviously gained momentum. Now it has climbed to seventh place on the annual list, and it is also qualified to compete for the annual song.
After all, although it is the 'Song of the Year', it mainly depends on the sound source, but it does not necessarily mean that the sound source is ranked first. Some other factors still need to be comprehensively considered... For example, the sound source of EXO's "Roar" in 2013 is not as good as that of several others.
Even in this case, I still got the New Year Song.
Because it's too hot.
All EXO fans are also looking forward to it. As long as they get this song of the year, EXO will basically win all three MMA awards this year. No one has ever achieved this in the history of the major award ceremonies at the end of the year. It belongs to Kpop.
An epic achievement.
...Although last year was the year EXO broke out and reached the top, even though their results were so good, their competitor BigBang should not be underestimated, and they just missed this achievement.
It seems that there are not such strong competitors this year. When fans had privately discussed the possibility of winning the grand prize, they all felt that there was a lot of hope. Today, many Ellie came here for this purpose and wanted to see their own oppa with their own eyes.
Winning three major awards made history.
Although the two girl groups Twice and GFriend are very popular...to be honest, Ellie, who has been domineering for several years, doesn't take them seriously at all.
What kind of sexy girl group is competing with our top group? The girl group still wants to win a grand award? We haven’t seen each other for a long time.
At this time, under the guidance of the award presenter, the candidate's VCR has begun to play on the big screen.
"Twice, "cheer up""
"GFriend, "Time Passes""
"EXO, "Miss You"."
"ZICO, "You are you, I am me""
"..."
As the lists of candidates were announced one after another, the atmosphere in the artist booth suddenly became solemn.
Sitting in the first row, EXO, who had just received a grand award, had always looked very relaxed, but now he was no longer serious about his words. No matter how many honors they have received, winning all the major awards is something that every member hopes to do.
things to come.
Even Chi Jingyuan, who had always felt that there was no hope, couldn't help but feel a little nervous at this time... We've all come, we're all here, it's good to be able to do it all, isn't it~
The group of girls from Twice in the second row seemed particularly nervous. Although they had the number one song in the annual charts, in fact, even they themselves did not feel that they had a high chance of winning.
In addition to GFriend being equally strong, it's also because the competitor is... EXO, a name that seems to have become a legend since they were trainees. Although they got to know each other after their debut and talked and laughed with each other, the original filter seemed to be much weaker.
, but only when you actually compete with them for awards can you feel the mountain-like pressure.
It's just that although it's a bit extravagant, if Twice wants to win the award... of course she wants it, she wants it very much, it's going to drive her crazy.
This is the first major award they are likely to win since their debut.
At this time, Lin Nalian felt that her breathing was a little unsmooth. She bit her lip with a sullen face, and could no longer care about managing her expression. She clenched her fist in her right hand and held Yu Dingyan's hand tightly with her left hand, as if she could share the burden.
My own anxiety and nervousness.
Yu Jeongyeon next to her was not doing much better, her smile was a little stiff, and her toes were already clasped. Kim Dahyun who was further away had a fake smile on her face, Son Chaeyoung showed her gapped teeth and her eyes were serious, and Minazaki Sasha's mouth was slightly open, dazed.
He looked at the screen above, like a puppy in a daze.
Even Ming Jing Nan, who was mostly focused on her boyfriend, and Zhou Ziyu, the doormat, both had strong desires in their hearts at this time. They glanced at Chi Jingyuan in the front row, feeling entangled and nervous at the same time.
, but they inevitably stand on opposite sides.
No matter what... we are Twice.
"Wow, these are really nice songs..."
After the VCR finished playing, An Shenghao said two sentences in a step-by-step manner, and then he didn't show off and started directly: "2016 Melon Music Awards, Song of the Year Award, the winner is..."
EXO was expecting but pretending to be relaxed, Twice was nervously holding his breath and concentrating, GFriend was staring at the scene without blinking, others were watching the fun and being a little envious, and the scenes in the artist booth were wonderful.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But in fact, most people think that EXO should win the award. After all, the two new girl groups are still younger, and it has been a long time since a girl group won the year-end grand award.
Yes, so...
"Twice, "cheer up", thick Camida!"
An Shenghao loudly announced the winner. As soon as he finished speaking, the artist seat and even the entire scene were frozen.
Ellie was stunned, passers-by cheered, and idol was shocked.
And the breath that Chi Jingyuan had been holding in his heart for a long time suddenly came out... He had always felt that there was little hope. After all, the sound sources were quite different, and the two songs were not only good in terms of sound sources, but also in terms of popularity and influence.
It's also very explosive, but "Missing You" is obviously weaker in every aspect.
It's just that the company, members, and fans were all making noises and trying to set things up for them. He was too embarrassed to say anything, so he could only obey them.
He was still a little nervous when the atmosphere arrived just now, and some hope arose in his heart. Now that the results came out, he was completely relaxed, and he was even a little proud of his foresight...
It's just that the other EXO members were obviously not as open-minded as he was. After hearing that "Cheer Up" won the award, the eight members managed their expressions but felt disappointed in their hearts. But then they seemed to think of something,
All eight people paused.
The next second, everyone slowly turned their heads in unison and looked at the maknae on the far right.
... Xiba, the song "cheer up" seems to have been written by Chi Jingyuan, or the producer.
The song you wrote for another group took away our song of the year that was very likely to win, shattering our hope of winning all the awards this year...
Isn’t this a traitor who supports the enemy?
Kim Junmyun, Park Chanyeol, Byun Baekhyun, and even Oh Sehun, all EXO members felt agitated and stared silently at the maknae who seemed to have nothing happened.
At this second, an extremely wonderful picture was born:
In the first row of the artist seats, Chi Jingyuan was sitting alone on the far right, smiling and applauding, looking like he was wishing his descendants good times, while the other eight EXO members on the left side looked at him in synchronization with their heads sideways, looking deeply at him.
His eyes seemed to hide inhumane waves, as calm as a death stare.
