Chapter 14: Familiar Faces at the Signing (Part II)

"How's the preparation going?" Hurriedly came to the room that was temporarily converted into a dressing room, Song Hongpao asked.

"Well, it's almost there, it's still a little bit away," Qiu Shangmi replied.

"Then hurry up, there are more fans here today than expected, you have to start early, otherwise there are too many people gathered outside, and it is easy to have a safety accident"

"Huh? Brother Red Robe, didn't you say that there were about 3,000 of them? Fang Rongguo, who had already put on his makeup and was waiting on the side, asked curiously.

"I estimated it before, but I took a look over there just now, and according to a rough estimate, there must be more than 3,000 people," Song Hongpao said, "So you guys hurry up and get ready"

As soon as they heard the news, Qiu Shangmei and the others couldn't help but move a little faster.

Soon the makeup was completed, and the members took the elevator together to the side entrance of the Lotte Mall.

Standing at the doorway, the members were separated from the outside world by a wall.

Even so, the members were able to feel the excitement outside.

The fiery atmosphere takes this hot summer day to a new level.

The door was opened by the assistants who came through the front door.

Suddenly, a heat wave came to their faces, allowing the members to feel the enthusiasm of the fans more intuitively.

The news of BTOB's appearance began to spread through the crowd, and almost in the blink of an eye, the fans present instantly boiled and shouted the name "BTOB".

A huge wave of sound swept in all directions in an instant, flashing lights lit up from all angles, and the moment they walked out of the side doorway, the members of BTOB almost had the illusion of being surrounded by a vast ocean. As far as the eye could see, there was a crowd of excited people, all shouting with joy.

Waving at the members, trying to squeeze in this way, the noise was so loud that the members couldn't hear what they were shouting.

Fortunately, the person in charge of Lotte's side foresaw this scene in advance, and had already pulled up the isolation zone in advance, sent security personnel and police, and united some young men and women holding small flags to push the crowd back.

Reluctantly squeezed out a walkable path for all BTOB staff.

It was the first time the members had seen this happen, with fans on both sides frantically pounding against the wall, and the fans closest to them could grab their clothes as long as they reached out.

As soon as I had such an idea, BTOB's progress suddenly stopped.

Because the clothes of Zheng Xiuxun and others were ripped by fans.

They are not free, nor are they free.

can only stand in place awkwardly, trying to avoid being pulled into the crowd by fans.

Jin Xiansheng and other assistants behind him were directly stunned when they saw it, and hurriedly ran to the side of the members, and then formed a human wall to escort the members forward.

I finally walked to the inside of Lotte Department Store.

"Melody's crazy too," Kim Hyun-seung and the others wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and said with palpitations.

In a short period of time, the members of BTOB have been protected and fine, but their group of agents and assistants have not known how many handfuls they have been grabbed by crazy fans on the way, their clothes have been torn very messily, and they have been embarrassed.

"It's good that it's just such a little distance, if the distance is longer, it feels like I have to take half my life here today"

"Hehe, it's hard work, Brother Xiansheng," Zheng Xiuxun came over and thanked him.

"It's okay, this is what we should do" Kim Hyun-seung waved his hand "It's okay if you're okay"

"Brother Xiansheng, usually you always say that you want to experience the feeling of being an idol, have you experienced it today?" Fang Rongguo teased with a playful smile on his face.

"Come on," Kim Hyun-seung shook his head and said, "I don't want to experience it a second time."

A group of people were talking here, and the person in charge of the mall and Song Hongpao rushed over.

"Fortunately, I let you come down in advance, if you stay up there for a while, and there are more people gathered below, it is estimated that the scene will really get out of control," Song Hongpao said happily.

"It's okay, brother, you discuss it with the people in the mall, let's start now, start early, otherwise there will be too many people outside," Zheng Xiuxun said.

This kind of May day, the scorching sun, can easily cause some accidents.

"Hmm" Song Hongpao nodded, turned around and discussed with the person in charge of the mall, and then the two ran to the gate.

Originally, I was going to prepare for a book signing session that started at 2 o'clock.

Because the scene was too hot, it had to be opened in advance.

After a short period of arrangement, the fans who had been waiting anxiously outside for a long time were finally able to meet BTOB as they wished.

This is the first time since BTOB's debut that it has held such a large-scale event to meet fans, and there was a showcase during the "Mix & Match" period, but it was no different from the stage.

They're on stage, and the fans are off stage.

There will be no close-up conversations and contacts like the book signings.

"That's a lot of people."

Song Hongpao stood aside and watched the long queue outside the isolation zone, which continued to the end of the line of sight outside the mall, and it was estimated that so many people might not be able to sign it in an afternoon.

At this moment, the members sitting in the seats don't have time to think about it so much, like Lee Chan-hee and others, because they are so tired that even makeup can't hide the dark circles under their eyes.

You can only wear sunglasses to cover up.

The fans who came in could only see all the BTOB members, with warm smiles on their faces, and expressed their gratitude to them in soft voices.

In the crowd, Bae Joo-hyun and Kang Shi-ki were a little at the front of the line.

As the people in front of them left one by one contentedly holding Qian Haomin's album, they were getting closer and closer to the venue.

"It's really a lot of people, it seems that the predecessors of EXO before didn't exaggerate it when they held a signing meeting, just now I almost thought that the human wall was going to be crossed," Jiang Shiqi said.

"You be quiet" Bae Zhuhyun hurriedly covered her mouth, looked left and right in fear, and found that no one noticed the two, so she breathed a sigh of relief and immediately glared at her.

It's all Melody, Jiang Shiqi ran to say EXO, if someone listens, maybe the two of them will be thrown out.

"Hey, hey, I said it subconsciously"

"But there are indeed a lot of people, and it is estimated that Xiuxun oppa and they can't rest well," Bae Joo-hyun said distressedly.

"Looking at Rong Guo's oppa, several of them are wearing sunglasses, and they definitely don't want fans to see their dark circles," Bae Joo-hyun said.

They are trainees, half artists, and they understand some things more than pure fans.

Ordinary fans are only immersed in the joy of meeting idols, and how many of them care that the idols in front of them are already exhausted?

Because there are so many people, the process of the signing meeting is simple, just a simple signature.

In the past, it was possible to fulfill requests such as hugs from fans, but today there is no way to do it.

For fans, it is already a blessing to be able to get up close and personal with the members of BTOB and hear them send their blessings to themselves with gentle words.

Although they regretted the cancellation of the request for hugs, they still chose to feel sorry for the members of BTOB and did not complain too much.

Soon, Bae Joo-hyun and Kang Shi-ki came to the inside and took out the newly purchased Repackage version of "WelcomeBack".

The seats are based on age, and Jung so-hoon is in the third.

After asking Bang Yong Kook and Nam Woo-hyun to help sign the autograph, Bae Joo-hyun came to Jung so-hoon.

"Hello so-hoon oppa, thank you for your hard work" handed the album to him, and Bae Joo-hyun showed the sweetest smile.

"It's okay, thank you for your support of us, we will work harder in the future," Jung so-hoon replied, and soon signed the album to return the album to her.

Looking up, he was stunned, Pei Zhuhyun's impression on him could not be said to be very deep, but he did remember such a person.

And I saw it in the S&M company, and the trainees of the S&M family are actually fans of BTOB?

"You...... You're an S&M trainee, right? He paused and said.

"Well, so-hoon oppa, do you remember me?" Bae Joo-hyun looked a little flattered.

"A little impression" Jung so-hoon remembered that he had seen Bae Joo-hyun when he was dueling with EXO.

At that time, he felt that this practice grew up quite like Girls' Generation captain Kim Taeyeon (non-black, my personal feeling, Team Bae is really similar to Soft).

People who can watch that duel should be the focus of S&M's training.

The conversation between the two may have been a bit long, and the fans in the back began to urge.

Jung so-hoon hurriedly handed the album to Bae Joo-hyun and smiled apologetically, "Sorry, there are too many people here today"

"It's okay," Bae Joo-hyun shook her head.

"I wish you an early debut, and I hope that the next time we meet, you will already be in the same circle as me, and I will support you when the time comes," Zheng Xiuxun encouraged.

"Thank you oppa" Bae Joo-hyun bowed and saluted, and then walked towards Li Hongbin.

After BTOB's debut, the number of Melodys has increased dramatically, and it's really rare to be able to meet Melody who has an impression on you.

However, today is destined to be more than just Bae Joo-hyun.

Kim Youzhen won't mention these things.

Kim Seo-hyun and Shin Ji-min, although he can't name them, he remembers that the people who look like them all appear.

After a brief conversation, I also learned that they were trainees of FNC and were about to make their debut.

This should be the last time the two come to catch the BTOB meeting.

I think it's amazing to imagine that my fans are actually about to make their debut......

If we meet on the show in the future, I think it's a very interesting thing to think about.

It's like meeting someone from Apink yourself......

The signing session went on slowly at this pace, and lasted until more than 7 p.m., when the last Melody was sent away. (To be continued.) )
