Peninsula Asteroid

The prelude of "Spring Day" is really beautiful. Even though there are mixed reviews of this song on the Internet, most of the comments on the prelude are very good. The melody is melodious and fascinating. The first feeling of spring.

"I miss you, and I miss you even more when I say it."

"Looking at your photos, it's hard to understand the pain of lovesickness."

"..."

"Four years are like snow, how much will it fall..."

"Will spring come?"

After the prelude, Bian Baekhyun's voice started the opening, and the steady voice attracted the distracted audience below into the atmosphere of the song.

Afterwards, Park Chanyeol started a long series of raps. His rap level is not particularly strong, but it can barely be said to be above the level. It was very comfortable to listen to in the previous live, at least it is considered qualified in idol, and it will not appear to be too short board.

"Snowflakes are falling, and they are going away little by little."

"I miss you."

"I miss you."

A soft and clear voice came and introduced the song into the first chorus. Sitting on a high stool, Chi Jingyuan put one foot on the ground and one leg on the edge of the stool, gently lowered his head and held his left hand. Putting on the headset, holding the hand microphone in his right hand, he sang very immersedly.

The live version of the original sound is very different from the previous stage with dance. The half-open dance stage does not need to pay too much attention to the singing part, and the focus is on walking, dancing and expression management.

But now the band's live performance is to put 100% of the experience on the singing. While paying attention to breathing and ventilation, emotional immersion is also very important.

This kind of performance really depends on the singing skills and expressiveness of the lead singer's vocal live. As a boy group, EXO rarely has this kind of live acoustic version stage, or most idols rarely have this kind of stage, because really It is a test of strength and status.

But to be honest, Chi Jingyuan, as the lead singer, really likes this form of performance. He can fully integrate into the world of a song and show his singing skills and emotions to his heart's content, so now he is very devoted and enjoying it .

The audience below also fell silent.

Although EXO can be said to be famous in the music industry, not everyone will pay attention to them. At most, they have heard or know their names. There are many people in the music industry who only like lyric singers, solo artists, and even relatively small groups. Music voters, the number of these people is quite a lot.

Among the more than 200 spectators present, many people had never heard the song "Spring Day", and this time it was really the first time they heard it.

When the prelude was played just now, some people's eyes lit up and they seemed to like the melody very much. But when they heard that the auditorium, which was still a little restless just now, was already quiet, only Chi Jingyuan's voice and the band's voice were left. The sound of playing against each other, surrounded them all around,

The accompaniment melody played by the band seemed a little sad, and the embellishment and suffocation of the piano added to that emotion, but they didn't feel sad, because the voice from the stage sounded very warm.

And people like this kind of thing that makes people warm. The clear and clear voice stirs the heartstrings and goes straight to the soul. There is peace and warmth along the way, as if seeing spring after the cold winter.

"No matter what kind of darkness, or what season."

"It's impossible to change forever."

"The cherry blossoms are about to bloom, and winter is about to go away."

"I miss you……"

"Spring Day" is the most difficult, including most of the chorus part, which is covered by the four lead singers, but thanks to this, the live charm of this song can be maximized. EXO's lead singer line is the top among the entire peninsula boy group. The configuration of the four main lead singers would be considered luxurious in any boy group and girl group, and it can even make many companies in the industry envy and lament the waste.

Taking them as the main body to interpret the live of this song, both the sense of hearing and emotion have reached a high level, and a lyric song, whether it is "lyric" or "emotion" is well displayed.

Maybe after this episode of "Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook" is broadcast, some fans of other XO members should understand why Chi Jingyuan, Jin Zhongda, and Baekhyun have so many parts...

As for the transition just now, if you change someone else, the effect may be quite different.

In the last chorus, Ji Jingyuan closed his eyes slightly, still covering his earphones, and performed his part earnestly and emotionally. Following the harmony, the voices of several people are melodious and harmoniously gathered together. The tacit cooperation and integration make people feel very comfortable. It seems that when you close your eyes, you can see the cold of winter fade away, and the warm spring comes from The moment the thread tied in the clouds caressed my face was moved.

The singing of several vocals, the harmony of the harmony, and the nodding and cheering of other members sitting scattered on the high stools pushed the original sound of "Spring Day" to the final climax.

"Wait until the spring is in full bloom."

"Wait until the flowers bloom."

"Just wait there for me."

"Wait for me there."

Including MC Yoo Hee Yeol, the entire audience quietly looked at the XO members who had sunk into the stage, and nodded lightly to the beat from time to time. Consciousness immersed in the music,

Looking forward to the dawn in the dark, longing for salvation in the deep sea, waiting for the spring in the cold winter.

And this kind of strength comes from the most gentle ray of firmness in this song.

Spring will surely come.

"Kang Sang Mita..."

At the end of the performance, everyone in XO stood up and thanked the live band and the audience in the audience. At this time, the audience seemed to wake up from a dream, and the melodious screams and chaotic applause followed. It became vigorous and vigorous, and the whole studio was noisy.

The audience who saw EXO's appearance before and didn't have any special reaction at all seemed to be moved by the stage just now, with surprise on their faces that "a boy group can also have this level of live" and applauding with a satisfied smile, a kind of I couldn't help feeling a sense of surprise brewing in my heart, and had a special evaluation and a different impression of the male idol group in front of me.

EXO left the stage directly after the call. "Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook" allocates the duration of each group according to the number of guests invited each time. Today's part of XO is over, and it should be Park Jin Young's turn next. .

…………

"Jing Yuan, you just stretch out your left hand and spread your five fingers apart, as if there is a brilliant ball of light inside. If you have a handsome expression, be natural, the more handsome the better."

"Hold it for a few seconds and then push the ball of light up suddenly. Use a little more force in the posture you made."

"Okay PD, I know."

"Let's try... action!"

After listening to the PD's instructions, Chi Jingyuan nodded to show that he understood, and finally tidied up the gray long-sleeved suit that he just changed into like a sauna suit, nodded and posed for the camera entering work .

Just finished recording "Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook" yesterday, and at this time Ji Kyung Won and all EXO members are shooting the VCR video of EXO's 2nd concert tour in a studio in Samseong-dong.

EXO’s second world tour concert has already started the preliminary preparations since the end of last year. After the company held a meeting to discuss and decide the location and cost of the leased venue, several production meetings were held to determine the location and time of the tour concert. Hairstyles, costumes, selection of songs, stage effects and lighting design, etc., were extremely cumbersome matters, and all preparations finally came to an end at the end of last month.

Among them, EXO members personally participated in more than a dozen production meetings. They had extensive discussions on song selection, effects, and process, and put forward a lot of their own opinions. It can be regarded as participation in the whole process.

A lot of previews have been made before, and it also indicated that EXO will hold the second tour. And this morning, on April 7th, SM officially uploaded a teaser video on the official channel of YouTube, announcing the name and meaning of EXO's "Second Tour", as well as the specific time and place, and explained the channel for purchasing tickets.

EXO's 2nd solo world tour is named "EXO PLANET # 2 - The EXO'luXion", the title'The EXO'luXion' is a combination of the words 'EXO' and 'Revolution', On behalf of EXO, start anew with this tour.

At the same time, it was determined that the location of the first Seoul station of the second round would be the same as last year's first round. It would be held in the Olympic Gymnastics Arena, and four consecutive rounds would be held on May 13, 14, 16, and 17.

In order to ensure the smooth booking of tickets, the tickets for the concert in Seoul Station will be booked twice. The tickets for the 13th and 14th concerts will be pre-sold on the Internet ticketing website YES24 at 8:00 pm on April 10th, and the 16th and 17th concerts Tickets will be issued on the next day, at 8:00 pm on the 11th.

Because of the great success of the previous tour, and after two consecutive months of comeback, EXO's current popularity and popularity are unmatched among all idol groups in the peninsula music industry. As soon as the news came out, fans and Many passers-by had endless expectations, leaving messages expressing their joyful feelings of 'excitement', 'expectation', 'hope to get tickets', etc. Among them, quite a few fans worried that there were too many competitors competing for tickets, and there were only 4 concerts Less than 60,000 tickets will definitely not be enough, so they appealed to SM companies to temporarily change the venue and change to a bigger one.

This proposal really makes people don't know what to say.

Leaving aside the fact that the venue rent has already been rented and paid for, whether it can be changed temporarily now, the 'Olympic Gymnastics Arena' alone in the peninsula is already the top venues for idols to hold concerts, no matter what The facility, the location, and the symbolic meaning are all very good. The upper limit of 15,000 spectators is not as high as those domes, but it is definitely not too low.

Of all the idol groups in the peninsula music industry, only the top groups can hold a tour here. Even if the remaining groups hope to hold a tour here, they are only hopeless, because their popularity does not support such a large venue. There is no way to get back the cost without tickets, so you can only choose those small venues with thousands of seats or even a thousand seats.

This is actually the status quo of most Kpop groups. It is said that every day there are tours around the world to promote Kpop, and all kinds of big-character posters are full of fans and rainbow farts, making them look like world superstars. In fact, most of them are small venues with thousands of people. Most of the time, they are still dissatisfied at all. Fans or officials need to find a good angle or cover the auditorium with a black cloth for taking pictures. In real tours, they can open large venues with more than 10,000 people, that is, EXO and bigbang.

SM really did their best for this concert. They hired a well-known concert design team in the United States at a high price. For the effect, the special effect VCR took nearly five minutes to shoot. The investment is not too much, and there is more than one time left. The monthly expenses are not enough. Although it has just come back for a week, in fact, the focus of EXO's work these days has been on the preparation of the concert.

To be honest, compared to comeback, XO members also pay more attention to touring, after all, concerts are the most profitable.

In the past few days, EXO has been rushing to shoot the VCR that needs to be used. In addition to the special effects video at the beginning, there are also several VCRs that are used for transitions in the middle. The workload is heavy.

"cut..."

"Jing Yuan, don't look so stiff on your face. There is nothing embarrassing about it. Don't laugh at others... Just imagine that you are now a superpower or a member of the Avengers. You can be a little more arrogant, anyway. How handsome you are." PD shouted to stop the filming, waved his hand to stop the laughter from the members watching, and patiently spoke to Chi Jingyuan again.

"PDnim I know."

Chi Jingyuan pondered for a while after listening, and gestured to show that he understood.

This kind of insubstantial superpower performance is really embarrassing, and I still didn't find the state the first time.

But what PD said is right, it would be easier to substitute it, but Chi Jingyuan did not substitute the Avengers as he said.

If it is light, of course it is the Warrior of Light.

Chi Jingyuan stretched out his hand as if holding a bunch of dazzling light balls in his hands, chanted two transformation words in his heart, his expression was cold and sharp, and suddenly he stretched out his hand and pushed the light ball upwards forcefully, as if he himself Also turned into light.

"CUT!"

"good!"

After filming this superpower VCR, the members changed their clothes and prepared to transition to the next photo shoot to shoot other VCRs. At this time, the manager Lee Seung-hwan came to them and greeted everyone. Together, a quick announcement to them:

"The company has officially decided that this time we will shorten the song making and promotion period for this comeback. "Spring Day" will not play for a full month like "Call Me Baby". The activity period plus the previous week will be two weeks. The "X" event will be tentatively scheduled after the singing is over."

"In addition to the 3rd anniversary live broadcast tomorrow, I will focus on the concert and the MV shooting of the two songs "O" in the past few days. The schedule will be sent to you when I get back in the evening."

"Understood bro."

Hearing that the members nodded one after another, Chi Jingyuan followed the others in response.

It can be said that many things have been squeezed together during this period in April. The return promotion, song making, concerts, and preparations for the next album are all extremely busy. There is not enough time. I must choose some key points to focus on. .

And to be honest, it's not realistic to go back for four consecutive comebacks and spend a full month each time.

Because in terms of the popularity of EXO, if there are no dung songs and no accidents, basically only returning to play songs can win most of the first trophies. In this way, it will be the same as "call me baby" in a few months "Sweeping March, most of the hit shows will be taken by EXO for the entire four months.

In this way, other combinations will not even be able to drink the soup, and other people, as well as other companies, will have opinions.

SM won't do that.

…………

"After Jinro changed to IU as the spokesperson, I heard that the market share has increased a lot."

Jin Junmian picked up the shochu bottle on the table, turned it around in his hand, looked at it, looked at Li Zhien's idol on it, smiled, and asked curiously: "By the way, her popularity is really high, and the effect is so obvious. , how much can IU earn as an endorsement fee for a year?"

At the moment, the five members of EXO are feasting in the box of a barbecue restaurant near KBS TV station in Yeongdeungpo district.

After filming the concert VCR for a day, the XO five went to KBS to record the radio program "Kiss the radio" in the evening. After the program ended, it was almost twelve o'clock. Everyone was a little hungry, so they found a place nearby After eating supper at the barbecue restaurant, after ordering a few bottles of soju, while eating and chatting, they talked about the spokesperson IU on the bottle.

After most of the fume on the table was exhausted by the smoking machine above the table, it still had a strong taste. All kinds of meat were roasted on the charcoal grill, making a sizzling sound of oil, accompanied by occasional saliva and chewing As well as the sound of wine glasses colliding, the whole box was filled with an intoxicating smell of fireworks.

"Of course we don't know the exact number, but the maximum should not exceed 1.5 billion won, and I think it may not exceed one billion won."

As the member with the most personal advertising endorsements, Chi Jingyuan swallowed the barbecue in his mouth, gave his own evaluation after thinking about it, and shook his head lightly.

"What's your expression? Why do you look down upon it?"

Seeing Chi Jingyuan's expression, Bian Boxian was a little dissatisfied, and tapped the plate with his chopsticks: "One billion is a lot, right?"

"En, many." Too lazy to provoke him, Chi Jingyuan nodded perfunctorily.

"Assi..."

Jin Junmian looked at IU's profile picture, and suddenly thought, "Jinro's advertisements and wine bottles are everywhere. Why didn't Jing Yuan think of competing for the endorsement of this soju? It feels like it can expand the nationality very well."

"How is it possible? The main consumers of shochu are men. Which man would be interested in buying it after seeing his face printed on the bottle?"

Wu Shixun laughed immediately when he heard this, picked up the wine glass and drank it down, glanced at Chi Jingyuan, and then at the shochu bottle in front of him, as if thinking of Chi Jingyuan's face printed on the wine bottle, He waved his hand in disgust, and even moved the wine bottle in front of him a distance away.

"That's okay."

Chi Jingyuan raised his eyes and thought about it, and seriously considered the feasibility of this proposal: "Maybe I will help Zhenlu expand the market among many women? I will find a way to compete next year."

"Huh~~"

"Then you and IU form a shochu CP."

"It sounds very emotional, why don't you two date."

"It's not impossible... But everyone has male votes, right? There were rumors that they were photographed a few days ago, is it true or not?" How could such a topic be timid at the wine table, Chi Jingyuan squinted reservedly Smiling eyes nodded noncommittally, accepting all the booing from the others, picked up the wine glass and took a sip of soju, and glanced at the portrait on the bottle, remembering the news he had seen before and asked.

"I heard it's true, let's go with Zhang Jihe." Park Chanyeol flicked the baking tray with his chopsticks, and he began to gossip because he was well-informed: "It seems that I have been in contact with him since last year, I don't know the specifics. , but it must be true.”

"What's wrong with having a male ticket? Just relying on Wuli Jingyuan..."

Just when Bian Boxian saw that there were no outsiders shouting loudly, Chi Jingyuan's cell phone rang suddenly. He quickly put the caught meat into his mouth, put down his chopsticks, and took out his cell phone with his free hand. After glancing at the familiar caller, he blinked, took out two pieces of toilet paper, wiped his mouth, stood up, waved his hand and said hello: "I'm going to answer the call, don't forget to save some for me."

"It's a beautiful idea..."

When he opened the door and walked out of the box, Chi Jingyuan answered the phone and said "Hello". After hearing the obvious Chinese, Park Chanyeol couldn't help but turned his head and glanced at him. After being a little surprised, he smiled narrowly.

"Hello."

After walking out of the private room, Chi Jingyuan glanced left and right, found a camera in the corridor where there was no one there, and opened the window that was originally closed, a gust of cold wind blew him into a jolt, dispelling the heat from his body and becoming more sober. Say hello to the phone.

Zhou Ziyu called.

But he fed it twice in a row, but the other side didn't make a sound. If he didn't hear the faint sound of breathing, he would have to take out his mobile phone to confirm whether it was connected or not.

"Why pretend to be deep, talk."

As if the night wind was blowing comfortably, Chi Jingyuan stretched out his hand and opened the window a little wider, and then deliberately made an impatient tone: "Crazy, if you don't talk, I will hang up."

"Why, why are you like this..."

There was a soft, obviously unhappy and some reproachful voice, Zhou Ziyu surrendered to Chi Guoguo's threat.

Her tone was a little hoarse and sticky, as if she had just cried.

It's already very late. With the schedule of Zhou Ziyu and the rest of the trainees, even if they haven't gone to bed, they should go to bed right away. There must be something wrong with calling so late, and her state doesn't sound like it good.

"Staying up so late... I guess."

Chi Jingyuan heard that she seemed to be in a bad mood. After raising his eyes and thinking for a while, he seemed to think of something, his tone suddenly increased, and he asked in a very surprised voice:

"The first issue of "sixteen" that you won't participate in was eliminated?"
