Jun-myeon took a sip of water, his expression complex, and sighed, "It's still being held in Los Angeles. I really want to go too."EXO-M just returned to the peninsula after finishing a schedule in Ch...The prelude to 《Spring Day》 is truly beautiful. Even though there are mixed opinions about the song online at the moment, most people agree that the prelude is excellent. The melody is graceful and captivating, listening to it feels very comfortable and evokes a sense of spring thaw.
I miss you. Saying it out loud makes me miss you even more.
"Looking at your photos, I also can't help but feel homesick."
「…………」
"Four years like snow, how much must it fall..."
"Will spring only arrive then"
After the prelude, Bian Berhyen's voice arose, seamlessly transitioning into the opening. His steady voice drew in the audience who were slightly distracted earlier, immersing them in the song's atmosphere.
Following Park Chan-wook's rap, which was a long string of verses. His rapping skills weren't particularly strong, only reaching an above-average level at best. However, his superior visuals combined with his naturally deep bass voice made for a pleasant listening experience in the well-rehearsed live performance. At least among idols, he was qualified and didn't appear too lacking.
Snowflakes are falling, disappearing one by one.
I miss you.
I miss you.
A soft and clear voice introduced the first chorus of the song. Ji Jingyuan, sitting on a barstool, had one foot on the ground and the other leg resting on the edge of the stool. He lowered his head slightly, his left hand supporting the earpiece and his right hand holding the microphone, singing deeply into it.
The live performance of the original version differs greatly from previous performances with dance segments. Half-open mic dance stages don't really need to focus too much on singing, the emphasis is on choreography, dancing, and facial expressions.
And now this band's live performance is about to put 100% of their experiences into the singing, focusing on breathing and exhalation while also being very key in emotional immersion.
This kind of performance really depends on the lead singer, Val's, live vocals and stage presence. As a boy group, EXO rarely has this kind of live, original sound stage, or in fact, most idols rarely have this kind of stage because it truly tests their skill and condition.
But to be honest, Chi Jingyuan, as the lead singer, really enjoys this kind of performance format. He can completely immerse himself in a song's world and give his all to show off his singing skills and emotions. So now he is very invested and enjoying himself.
And the audience below was also completely silent.
Although EXO is a household name in the music industry, not everyone pays attention to them. At most, they've either heard of them or know their names. There are plenty of people in the music world who only like ballad singers, solo artists, or even niche music, and there are quite a few of them.
Among the two hundred or so audience members present, many had actually never heard of the song "Spring Day" before. This was truly their first time hearing it.
When the prelude first sounded, some people's eyes lit up, seemingly enjoying the melody very much. Now, the audience who had been slightly agitated just a moment ago was already eerily quiet. Only the sound of Ji Jingyuan's voice and the band's performance echoed around them, complementing each other.
The band's accompaniment melody seemed to carry a touch of melancholy, the piano embellishments suffocating that emotion even more. However, they didn't feel sad because the sound coming from the stage sounded very warm.
And people just love things that bring warmth, a clear voice that stirs the heartstrings and goes straight to the soul. Along the way, there is peace and warmth, like the feeling of seeing spring after a harsh winter.
No matter what kind of darkness, or what season it may be.
Nothing can remain unchanged forever.
"Cherry blossoms are about to bloom, and winter is drawing to a close."
I miss you...
The most difficult part, including the vast majority of the chorus, is sung by four main vocalists. However, thanks to this, the stage presence of this song is at its best. EXO's lead vocalist is top-tier among all male groups on the peninsula. With a lineup of four powerful vocalists, any boy or girl group would be considered luxurious, even making many companies in the industry envious and lamenting the wasted talent.
Focusing on their performance, this song's live rendition
Both the sensory experience and emotional impact have reached a high level. This lyrical song, whether it's the "lyricism" or the "emotion," is beautifully expressed.
After this episode of airs, perhaps some other members' fanbases will understand why Ji-seong, Jongdae, and Berhyne have so many parts...
Just now that segment of vocal modulation, if someone else did it, the effect might be quite different.
The last chorus section, Ji Jingyuan closed his eyes slightly and continued to perform his part with passion while wearing headphones. Do Kyungsoo and Baekhyun sitting on the other side of the stage were holding microphones softly harmonizing along. The voices of several people sounded pleasant and harmonious, blending together seamlessly, their cooperation and integration were very impressive, making it incredibly comfortable to listen to. It seemed that just closing your eyes could picture the coldness of winter melting away and the warmth of spring sunshine piercing through the clouds and touching one's face in that instant, a moment filled with emotion.
Several val singing, the harmony of harmony, coupled with the scattered members sitting on other bar stools nodding and cheering, pushed this "Spring Day" live version to its final hao.
"When spring *** is fully here."
When the flowers bloom.
"Just wait for me there."
"Wait for me there."
Including Ryu Hee-ryeol, all the audience members were silently watching the XO members who had already sunk into the stage. They occasionally nodded their heads lightly to the beat, and the surging music of Liang Chen surrounded them, as if they had truly immersed themselves in the music.
Hoping for dawn in the darkness, longing for salvation in the deep sea, and waiting for spring in the winter.
And this kind of power comes from the gentlest, most steadfast glimmer within this song.
Spring will surely come.
"Kōsanda..."
As the performance ended, xo and everyone stood up to bow to the band on stage and the audience below. At this point, the audience seemed to just wake up from a dream, with sweet screams and chaotic applause rising in waves, starting sparse and growing into a roaring cacophony that filled the entire studio with noise.
Those in the audience who had shown no particular reaction to EXO's entrance moments ago now seemed moved by their performance. Smiles of surprise and satisfaction painted their faces as they applauded enthusiastically, a sense of wonder brewing within them. They couldn't help but form a unique impression of this male idol group before them, one that surpassed their previous expectations.
After EXO's farewell stage, they immediately left the stage. On "Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook," each group's time is allotted based on the number of guests. XO's portion is already over today, and it's now Park Jin Young and their turn.
…………
"Jingyuan, just stretch out your left hand, spread your fingers wide, and pretend there's a brilliant light ball inside. As for your expression, be as cool and handsome as possible, naturally. The cooler and more handsome, the better."
"After keeping it for a few seconds, push the light ball upwards suddenly, put more effort into your posture."
Okay, PD, I understand.
Let's try this... a!
After listening to pd's instructions, Chi Jingyuan nodded to show that he understood. Finally, he tidied up his newly changed grey long-sleeved suit which looked like a sauna suit, and nodded towards the camera that had started working, striking a pose.
Yesterday, I just finished recording "Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook", and right now, Ji Chang Wook and all of EXO members are at a studio in Samcheong-dong filming the VCR video for their second world tour.
EXO's second world tour has been in preparation since late last year. After company meetings to discuss and decide on venue rental locations and costs, multiple production meetings were held to finalize the tour dates and locations, as well as aspects like hairstyle, costumes, song selection, stage effects, lighting design, and many other intricate details. All preparations finally came to an end last month.
Among them, there were dozens of production meetings where the EXO members personally participated. They discussed song selection, effects, and flow in detail, and put forward many of their own opinions. It can be said that
He/She participated throughout the whole process.
Before this, there have been many announcements and indications that EXO will be holding a second world tour. And today morning, April 7th, the official YouTube channel officially uploaded a trailer video, publicly announcing the name and meaning of EXO's "second tour," as well as the specific time and location, and the ticket purchase channels.
EXO's second solo world tour was named "EXO HE EXOTION". The title, "THE EXO TION", is a combination of "EXO" and "REVO TION", representing EXO's fresh start with this tour.
The first leg of the second round was also confirmed to be held at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena in Seoul, just like last year's first round. It will be held over four consecutive days from May 13th to 17th.
To ensure a smooth ticketing process, Seoul Station concert tickets will be booked in two batches. Tickets for the 13th and 14th performances will be presale on the internet ticketing website yes24 at 8 PM on April 10th. Tickets for the 16th and 17th performances will be available the next day, at 8 PM on the 11th.
Due to the overwhelming success of their previous tour, and after a two-month comeback period, EXO's current popularity is unmatched among all idol groups on the Korean peninsula. As soon as the news was released, fans and many passersby expressed immense anticipation, leaving comments like "excited," "looking forward to it," and "hoping to get tickets." Some fans even worry that with so many competitors vying for tickets, 4 concerts with less than 60,000 tickets will not be enough. They have therefore urged ** Entertainment to temporarily change the venue to a larger one.
This proposal really leaves me speechless.
Let's not talk about the venue rental first, it's already booked and paid for. Now the question is whether we can still change it at this late stage. The "Olympic Gymnastics Arena" on the peninsula is already one of the top venues for idol concerts, with excellent facilities, location, and symbolic meaning. While its capacity of 15,000 spectators isn't as high as those giant stadiums, it's certainly not low either.
This is actually the reality for most Kpop groups. They claim to be touring the world every day, promoting Kpop, with massive headlines and fans showering them with praise, making it seem like they're global superstars. In reality, most of their concerts are small venues holding only a few thousand people, and many times they don't even fill the seats. Fans and officials have to carefully find angles when taking photos, or cover up empty seats with black cloth. The only groups who can really hold massive concerts with tens of thousands of fans at any location are EXO and Bigbang, along with a handful of others.
For this concert, we really put in our all. We hired a renowned American concert design team at a high price, and for the effect alone, the special effects VCR took nearly five minutes to film. The investment is considerable, and with over a month left, time isn't exactly generous. Although it's been just a week since our comeback, in fact, EXO's focus these past few days has already shifted to preparing for the concert.
To be honest, compared to returning with new music, the members of XO are more focused on touring, because after all, concerts are the most profitable way to make money.
These days EXO has been working hard filming the VCRs needed for the show. Besides the opening VFX video, there are several VCRs used for transitions that need to be filmed, so the workload is very large.
"ut…" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Kyung-won, your expression shouldn't be so stiff. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. The others don't laugh... Just imagine you're a superpower user right now, someone from the Avengers! You can be arrogant with your expressions, anyway, go all out!"PD shouted "cut" and waved his hand to stop the giggling of the onlookers. He patiently spoke to Park Kyung-won for a few more moments.
"This app allows you to check for new chapters of a book on multiple websites simultaneously."
He won't do that.
…………
Since True Water changed its spokesperson to IU, it's said that its market share has increased a lot.
Kim Jun-myeon picked up the soju bottle on the table, turned it over in his hand and took a look. Looking at IU's idol face on the bottle, he smiled and asked curiously, "Speaking of which, she's really popular, the effect is so obvious, how much could IU's annual endorsement fee be"
Right now, the five members of EXO are having a feast at a private room in a barbecue restaurant near KBS TV Station in Yeongdeungpo-gu.
After filming a day's worth of concert VCRs, at night the five of them went to KBS to record the radio program "Kiss The Radio." After the show ended, it was almost midnight and everyone was getting hungry. They decided to find a nearby Korean BBQ restaurant for a late-night snack. After ordering a few bottles of soju, they started chatting while eating, and somehow the conversation turned to IU, the endorser on the bottle of soju.
Although most of the smoky haze from the grills was drawn away by the extractor fan above, a lingering scent still hung in the air. A variety of meats sizzled on the charcoal grill, their fat spitting and popping, accompanied by the occasional sounds of drooling, chewing, and clinking glasses. The entire room was filled with an intoxicating aroma that was both tempting and satisfying.
We don't know the exact number, of course, but it shouldn't be more than 1.5 billion Korean won. I think it probably won't even reach a billion.
As the member who has been in the most individual advertisements, Park Kyung-won swallowed the grilled meat in his mouth, thought for a moment, and gave his own evaluation, gently shaking his head.
What expression is that Why are you looking down on me like this
Bian Bian saw Ji Jingyuan's expression was a little dissatisfied, and he tapped the plate with his chopsticks: "Ten billion is already a lot, right"
"Mm, more." Chi Jingyuan nodded absently, too lazy to provoke him further.
"Ah... "
Kim Jun-myeon looked at IU's profile picture and had a sudden thought, "True liquor ads and bottles are everywhere. How come Jingyuan didn't think of competing for this soju endorsement It feels like it could greatly increase his popularity."
"How is that possible The main consumers of liquor are men. Which man would be interested in buying a bottle with his face on it"
Wu Shixun laughed directly, picked up his cup and finished it in one gulp. He glanced at Ji Jingyuan, then at the bottle of soju in front of him. It seemed that he thought of Ji Jingyuan's profile printed on the bottle, disgustedly waved his hand, and even moved the bottle in front of him a little further away.
Well, that could work too.
Chi Jingyuan considered the proposal seriously, raising an eye and thinking it over. "Maybe I could help Zhenlu expand its market among many more women I'll try to compete next year."
"Huh~"
"Then you and IU form a soju CP.
"That sounds like a good idea, why don't you two just start dating"
"It's not impossible... But she already has a boyfriend, right There were rumors the other day that they were spotted together. True or false" At the dinner table, this kind of topic couldn't be avoided. Chi Jingyuan modestly narrowed his eyes and nodded without denying it, accepting everyone's encouragement with a smile. He raised his cup and took a sip of soju, then glanced at the bottle's image, remembering the news he had seen before and asked.
"I heard it's true, with Ji-hye Zhang, right" Park Chan-hwe brandished his spatula on the grill, and being well-connected he started gossiping: "Heard they might have been in contact last year already, not sure about the details, but it definitely seems real."
"What's wrong with having a boyfriend Just because it's Li Jingyuan..."
Just as Bian Beran was watching around with no outsiders shouting loudly, Chi Jingyuan's phone in his pocket suddenly rang. He hurriedly sent the meat he was holding into his mouth and put down his chopsticks, reaching out to take his phone. After glancing at the familiar caller ID, he blinked, pulled out two tissues to wipe his mouth and stood up, waving his hand and saying, "I'm going to answer a call, don't forget to leave some for me."
"What a beautiful thought…"
As Ji Jingyuan opened the door and walked out of the private room, he answered a phone call with a "Hello". Park Chan-wook couldn't help but turn his head to look at him when he heard the obvious Chinese. After a moment of surprise, he broke into a knowing smile.
"Feed me."
After stepping out of the private room, Chi Jingyuan glanced left and right, found a secluded corridor with no cameras, opened the window that was originally closed, a gust of cold wind blew him, making him shiver. The heat on his body dissipated, he became much more sober, and then greeted the person on the phone again.
Tzuyu called.
But he fed it twice in a row, and the other side was still silent. If it hadn't been for the faint, low breathing sound he could hear, he would have reached for his phone to check if the call had even gone through.
"Stop being so deep, just talk."
It felt like a nice breeze blowing in from the night. Qi Jingyuan reached out and opened the window a little wider, then pretended to sound annoyed: "Psychopath, if you don't talk I'm hanging up."
"What are you doing, what's going on..."
A soft, slightly displeased and somewhat reproachful voice came. Faced with such blatant threats, Zhou Tzuyu still surrendered with a sigh.
Her voice sounded a little hoarse, with a slight raspiness to it, as if she had just been crying.
It's already very late. Even with trainees like Tzuyu and the others, they should be resting soon if they haven't already gone to sleep. There must be something important for her to call this late, and she doesn't sound well either.
"Staying up so late... I wonder why."
...Pool Jingyuan heard that she seemed to be in a bad mood, raised his eyes and thought for a moment, as if he had thought of something, his tone suddenly increased, and his voice asked in surprise:
