In addition to members and managers, there are also choreographers, vocal teachers and stage effects planners in the practice room.

Twelve people had just finished dancing to "MAMA" and were standing together slightly panting, listening to the comments of several teachers.

"The progress has been really great. It's much better than when you first debuted. I didn't even want to watch the stage when you first debuted. Your performance was too poor."

"The progress is really good now. Some members have made obvious progress, especially Yuan. I remember that when you debuted, your dancing ability was suddenly improved. It was still a bit unsmooth at the time, but it is much better now. Your body proportions It’s very good, and it feels great to dance.”

"I won't talk about Kai, Lay and the lead dancers. Your dancing skills have always been very good and have improved during this period. But there are a few members who are obviously weaker. Baekhyun and Chen, you two have a lot of time to practice. It's already a short period of time, and I haven't made much progress during this period. I've already clearly opened up some gaps with the members. Do you know that I have to work hard in private?"

"Inside."

The members listened humbly to the teachers’ comments and nodded in agreement.

When EXO debuted, their strength was ridiculed by the crowd. Many people ridiculed them as the weakest and most losing group. However, they were not wrong. Some of the stages during their debut period did look average.

After a lot of practice during this period of free time, the overall strength of the group has improved a lot, and it is obviously much stronger than when they debuted.

The expressions of the several members who received praise were all good. Chi Jingyuan still maintained his iconic smile. Only the two members who were named and criticized did not look very good.

"In the next month, Team K will not have much schedule. There will be no live TV events, and there will only be some business performances and announcements. Team M will have more free time than before except for scheduled activities in Xia Country. A lot more, so during this period everyone should work hard to practice for the end of the year stage.”

"The Mnet Asian Music Awards, also known as the MAMA Awards Ceremony, will be held on November 30. The company has communicated and publicized with the organizers. We EXO have basically locked in this year's Newcomer Award and won nearly seven minutes of performance time. This is high on the list of performance lengths for anyone who has appeared.”

"With MAMA's ratings and popularity, this is a very good exposure opportunity. The company has also invested a lot of resources for this. You must practice hard and seize this opportunity to increase your popularity."

"We will definitely work hard. Thank you for the company's attention." The members saluted and thanked each other in response. The first sentence was said together, and the latter words of thanks were said by the team leader Jin Junmyeon.

Manager Li Chenghuan introduced the situation to everyone, gave some excited instructions, and finally added: "The company has already discussed the special stage performance. Now let the stage effects planner Li Zhongmin come and talk to you."

Lee Jong Min, the stage effects planner who had been standing nearby, stood up and nodded to the members, who also saluted.

Lee Jong Min is also a very familiar person. He has participated in many of EXO's stages, as have several dance and vocal teachers nearby. After practicing on many special stages in the past, they will be asked to evaluate and give opinions.

So there was no need to be polite and we went directly to the topic.

"This performance lasted nearly seven minutes and was divided into four parts."

"The first is the twelve-person stage for the title song "MAMA", which lasts about three minutes and thirty seconds. Because this award ceremony is held in Hong Kong Island, Xia Kingdom, and Team M is very popular in Xia Kingdom, this stage The performance will focus on Team M, and some new choreography will be done for them."

"Then the whole group will perform a cover of H.O.T's song "Descendants of the Warriors". The scheduled time is 40 seconds."

"Finally, there will be two special cover stages. EXO will be divided into two teams to perform separately. This time the company decided not to divide the performances according to the K and M teams. The K and M teams will each have three people to form a team."

"First is the first cover stage, performing TVXQ's classic song "Mantra". The participating members are Yuan, Kai, Wu Sehun from Team K, and Tao, Chen and Xiumin from Team M. Start directly from the second chorus The performance usually lasts about 1 minute, and the dance teacher has choreographed it for the 6-person stage.”

Li Jongmin introduced EXO's stage design for the ceremony, then looked at Chi Kyung-won and warned: "On the stage of "Spell", Changmin's high-pitched part in the second chorus, Yuan, you will sing it, although EXO has previously You rarely sing high notes on the stage, but we know your singing ability, so there must be no problem."

"After this cover stage, this performance should attract a lot of attention. The company will invest some resources to create a strong all-round image for you, so that the public will have a fuller impression of you... Of course, your strength It’s really strong and very versatile.”

Li Zhongmin looked at Chi Jingyuan as he spoke and smiled, with an expression of appreciation in his eyes.

"Nei, Kangsangmita."

Chi Jingyuan smiled and nodded, expressing his gratitude for the company's trust and the other party's praise.

In terms of dancing, it's hard to say that Chi Jingyuan's ability can only be considered good but not top-notch. In terms of singing, he has practiced for many years and his personal talent is also very good. Such high notes are not very difficult for him.

"The cover song performed by the other six members who are not named is "Lucifer" by SHINee, and it is often about 1 minute long."

"SHINee will appear on stage in the last 30 seconds of the stage, complete the final stage with us EXO, then we will exit, and then it will be their performance time."

"So for the last part of the performance, the two groups EXO and SHINee have to coordinate time to practice together..."

"Recently, apart from Yuan's relationship with TV dramas, EXO has not been exposed much. This time the opportunity is very good. Everyone must work hard to show the best of yourself for your fans, and continue to aim at becoming a dazzling star. Go forward!"

Li Zhongmin finally made a conclusion, his tone was a little excited, and he gave everyone blood.

The members of EXO are also very excited, especially the K team members. The MAMA ceremony has become more and more popular in recent years, and the audience has also increased. For them who have not had much exposure, this opportunity is indeed very good.

After chatting for a while, EXO began to learn the dance of the special stage under the guidance of several choreographers, and began to practice seriously for this performance.
