Chapter 109 XOXO
. The leading one, Lee Seung-hwan, glanced at the scene and said in a serious voice: "Axi, what's going on Did someone fight"Conflicts and contradictions often occur among ** trainees, but most of the...After the beast's performance, the EXO members, who had changed into their outfits, rushed to the backstage area near the stage entrance. At this time, the screen in front of them had already started playing the VCR they had filmed a few days ago.
The VCR connects the storylines of their music videos for "Wolf" and "Growl", narrating events that unfold after the MV, particularly focusing on EXO members Kai and Han who compete for the female lead.
** is really putting a lot of effort into both award stages in November. MAMA stands out with its special performances, while MMA focuses on this VCR.
The company invested a lot in making this VCR, and they even added some special effects for the performance. For example, Kai's eyes would glow red when he was angry.
The effort was quite thoughtful, but unfortunately, the effect...
Sitting in front of the artist's seats, SHee started laughing uncontrollably less than 5 seconds into the VCR playback. During the middle part, Key laughed so hard from his vigorous movements that he slid off his stool and landed on the floor with a thud, still giggling non-stop.
And the fans' reaction was quite interesting. Although it was a VCR used to show off and charm, besides a small number of extremely loyal fans, the screams were not very loud, about the same as the laughter.
It was too embarrassing.... Chi Jingyuan was really glad that he only showed his face in it, and didn't even have any lines.
Otherwise, in the future when they gain seniority and experience, this VCR will definitely be a black history.
As the VCR ended, EXO had already taken their positions, striking their iconic Life Tree pose. Their shadows, cast by the spotlights, stretched onto the screen behind them, appearing enormous and almost like a real life tree had descended to earth.
After the Tree of Life swayed to the rhythm for a few moments, fireworks burst into the sky, and the curtain officially opened. EXO appeared in front of all the audience in a stunning way, and the stage of "WOLF" officially began.
Compared to their previous album era, EXO seemed much more confident during their performance of “Wolf” this time. The ease and grace they displayed, a result of their popularity and the audience’s recognition, was something they couldn’t quite achieve before.
After the performance of 《Wolf》, a VCR segment was played, similar in effect to the previous one, bringing much joy to the audience.
Meanwhile, the members dashed to their designated positions. Team K, in charge of opening the show, headed straight for the entrance where they waited among the audience.
Two minutes later, the VCR ended and the prelude to "Roar" sounded. The big screen focused directly on the entrance of the audience seats. After K-Team had done their opening expressions, they walked swaggeringly from the audience channel all the way to the stage.
At this time, the audience on both sides, especially the female fans, were already extremely excited. As they passed by, countless hands reached out, hoping to shake hands with their idols, or even just touch them would be enough to satisfy them.
It's a pity that if it were a different time, Chi Jingyuan would proactively shake hands with fans. But now it's a live stream on stage, and if someone suddenly pulls him, it could be a major livestream accident.
After the frenzied cheers, Team K walked onto the dance floor and entered the chorus of "Roar."
This stage is designed only for the opening, with no other special features. Team K completes the first chorus and then squats down together before leaving the stage secretly. Team M takes the stage to perform the second chorus, and finally both teams take the stage together for the last chorus and a synchronized dance.
"I Eu-Reu-ReongEu-Reu-ReongEu-Reu-Reong you."
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
"I Eu-Reu-ReongEu-Reu-ReongEu-Reu-Reong you."
From the moment EXO took the stage, the cheers from the audience never stopped. The atmosphere at the first half of the awards ceremony reached its peak, with fans screaming their hearts out, filling the venue with deafening roars. Even the idols in the artist's seats couldn't hear the music anymore, their eardrums completely echoing with screams of "Ahhh!"
Today, a significant portion of the audience at the venue were EXO fans. Despite it being an awards ceremony attended by many artists, thanks to their enthusiastic support, it felt more like an EXO solo concert.
Before this, whenever EXO appeared in the candidate VCR, the audience would immediately erupt in screams. However, as soon as the screen switched to other artists, the sound would instantly die down. Although it made others feel awkward, it also clearly showed the vastly different popularity levels between various idols.
As the final chorus concluded, the members formed a circle on stage for their Endgpose. Amidst thunderous cheers, the lights dimmed, marking the end of the performance and the first half of the MMA Awards ceremony.
After the members went off stage, they returned to the backstage area. Park Ji-won was so hungry that he couldn't stand it anymore, so he got a bag of cookies to tide him over. However, after opening it, he hadn't eaten a few before being swarmed by the other members who snatched them all away.
After a short break, 4 MCs left to the waiting area, and the other members returned to their artist seats. They didn't change into other outfits and remained in the same suits they wore on stage.
The second half will begin soon.
What interested Chi Jingyuan was that the performers of the opening act were a two-person hip hop duo, Dynaibsp; Duo, consisting of rapper Jaeho, whom he had met not long ago.
Before the ceremony, EXO met backstage. Since they were juniors, they took the initiative to greet them, but there was no further interaction afterwards. Ji-kyeong sensed that Jae-hoo seemed to be keeping a distance from Choi Se-ri recently and their contact wasn't as frequent anymore. He seemed to know something about the reason. At that time, there was a hint of malice in his smile.
They also participated in MMA today and received a TOP 10 trophy.
And this is also one of the main reasons why Chi Jingyuan thinks this 10 has a general low gold content.
After a while, EXO returned to the stage to receive another award, the "Popularity Award from Netizens." This was their second award of the day.
After briefly sharing their thoughts, the members returned to the artist's seat. Ji Kyung-won sat and watched as the 5 MCs walked back onto the stage, finding it quite amusing.
The four MCs are Kim Jun-myeon, Park Chan-yeol, Byun Baek-hyun, and Kai. They stand on either side, flanking female MC Lee Yoo-fi in the middle.
But Park Chan-wook was noticeably taller than the others, nearly a head taller. Besides Kai, who was close to his height, the rest of them looked quite out of place even when they wore insoles and stood straight. Standing next to him made them seem very disproportionate.
He was watching the show, clapping and smiling, giving out cheers. He occasionally admired the female MC's figure. He was relaxed and having a good time.
As the award ceremony progressed, all the members of EXO became increasingly nervous. Their smiles were no longer as carefree as before, and even Ji-seong had lost his previous relaxed demeanor. He became tense, staring intently at the stage, giving out brief responses to what was said to him.
Because at this time the MMA has entered the award ceremony section of the gala.
The MMA Awards has three major awards: Song of the Year, Artist of the Year, and Album of the Year.
In general, the gold content is about the same. However, the awards given at the end of a ceremony tend to seem more important and the winners' acceptance speeches are usually longer.
But EXO's goal is to only get one, and they'll be satisfied with whichever one they get. It doesn't matter which position they have in the lineup.
At this moment, the 5 MCs on stage were reciting their lines. Kim Jun-myeon and Kai, among others, seemed to have become noticeably tense. Their delivery of the lines was a bit hesitant.
"The Grand Prize is divided into three parts. This year, the most loved album on the sound source chart and the album with the best public opinion will win the Best Album of the Year."
"Awarded to the singer who has achieved excellent performance and public recognition throughout the year, the Best Artist of the Year."
"Award given to the song that achieved the best performance this year and was widely popular among the public. "
All members of XO held their breath, not a sound could be heard.
And at this time, the camera gave the audience a timely close-up. On the screen, Chi Jingyuan's smile had disappeared. His gaze was fixed on the center of the big screen, and he stared intently with his mouth tightly closed.
Last year they could only strive for a newcomer award at best, but this year they are already a strong contender for the grand prize.
Today's EXO is unparalleled in both fame and popularity, considered one of the most popular male groups on the peninsula.
Because they have only recently debuted and lack experience, they not only need the major awards at ceremonies to recognize their recent achievements but also need them to elevate their status and weight.
Moreover, winning the Grand Prize is something that all artists on the peninsula have longed for.
"Now it is the award for Best Song of the Year in the 2013 MMA Awards, and the presenter is the eternal Diva, the Vocal Goddess, Ren Shun'er."
Under the increasingly tense gaze of the members, the big screen opened, and the award-presenting guest walked out under the MC's narration.
Ren Shun'er was a very famous singer on the peninsula many years ago, she is considered a superstar senior.
And the moment award presenter In Sun walked out, Ji Kyeong-won let out a long sigh of relief. He and Wu Se-hun, along with Do Kyung-soo, exchanged glances and simultaneously broke into knowing, joyful smiles.
Although the awards haven't been officially presented yet, the presenter has already hinted at who will win.
Because everyone could see clearly, Ren Shun'er's white dress had the four letters 'XOXO' written on her chest.
