The 2014 F/W Seoul Fashion Week was held on March 21 at the Seoul Design Culture Park, with the intention of showcasing Seoul's fashion trends through a variety of unique stages and costumes.

The whole process lasts for a total of six days, except for a special fashion show on the first day with the participation of a number of designers and celebrity idols Outside of the concert, each day there will be special events and shows to attract the attention of the audience and the media.

EXO was invited to be the guest of honor for the opening performance and catwalk of the fashion week on the 21st, and performed the stage of "Roaring Filial Piety" with a dance section added to the "mama" awards ceremony last year, and walked the catwalk with the female model after the stage, which really attracted a lot of attention.

At that time, Ji Kyung-won was resting in the dormitory and did not participate, and after Park Jae-hyun said it, he also watched the video of the members' performances and catwalks on the Internet.

Pretty average.

Because it is not a professional stage, there is no professional VJ and shooting equipment, and there is no director to switch lenses, the camera that shoots the stage does not move at all during the whole process, just flat and straightforward shooting.

Without the rendering of the lens language and the background of the lighting, the whole stage looks a little boring, even if each member is actually quite handsome that day.

As for the catwalk in the back......

No matter how you look at it, it's a bit mismatched, even if the height of several members is enough, but when standing on the catwalk and standing with the female model, it looks very green.

Especially tao and kai, as well. As soon as they stopped at the front of the runway, they made Chi Jingyuan laugh, giving people the feeling that they didn't even know where to put their hands.

This opening show, brought up many years later, is likely to become another piece of EXO's black history.

…………

"I've always been interested in fashion, and Seoul Fashion Week is one of the fashion vanes of the peninsula, so I'm honored to be invited to be here."

Chi Jingyuan first communicated with the staff of the organizer, and then stood on the interview desk, and began to be interviewed by reporters after being surrounded by flashing lights and taking crazy pictures.

The upper wall gray casual jacket is lined with a white thread shirt, and the bottom is matched slim trousers, stepping on a pair of canvas shoes, and wearing a black cap on the head, the overall look highlights the simple and casual style.

With Shangchi Jingyuan's well-proportioned tall figure, as well as his slightly soft handsome facial features and a pair of smiling eyes, he attracted the attention of many people present at that stop.

This dress matching was not chosen by himself, it was the clothes that the company's designer specially matched for him, which is more in line with Chi Jingyuan's dressing style.

If he had picked out his own clothes, he probably wouldn't have worn them like this...... However, SM may have also taken this into account, so he specially asked the designer to prepare such a suit for him.

"There was a fainting incident in Yuanxi two days ago, and fans are very concerned about your physical condition, so your complexion seems to be quite good today, has it recovered?" The moderator, who works as a journalist, asked a question that everyone was curious about.

Today is the first appearance of Ji Jingyuan after the news that he fainted and was sent to the hospital a few days ago, and naturally many people are very interested in his state.

"Inside, as the company notice said, it is not a very serious problem, but it has been delayed for a long time, and it has fully recovered after treatment and rest."

"Then the postponement of EXO's return has also become a topic of discussion among many fans, can Yuanxi reveal the specific return date of XO next?"

"This still depends on the company's considerations."

Chi Jingyuan smiled, looking a little helpless: "You know, what I said doesn't count." ”

"Haha......"

After being interviewed for a while, Ji Jingyuan walked into the venue.

The layout of the fashion week venues is very similar, with the main stage occupying the largest area, and the extended catwalk stretches across the entire venue, with several rows of chairs arranged around the two sides of the catwalk.

The chairs are not messy either, and they all have the names of an invited guest in black and white.

Under the guidance of the staff, I found my position, in the middle of the first row on the right side of the catwalk, which is a very good position to watch the show.

When he came, it was already late, and the surroundings were almost full of people, and there was no one who knew him after sweeping around, and it was estimated that most of them were industry insiders.

However, many people around knew Chi Jingyuan, and when they saw him, many people took the initiative to say hello with a smile, and Chi Jingyuan also responded with a smile and sat down on the chair.

As soon as he sat down, he felt that someone was filming him with his phone all the time, and he didn't know if it was a fan or what. However, Chi Jingyuan was already used to being photographed this kind of thing, he smiled and looked at the person who patted him, then shifted his gaze and swept around casually.

As soon as he turned his eyes a few meters, he met the gaze of a person on the other side who was looking at him, and after seeing his face clearly, Chi Jingyuan found that he was still a person he knew.

It's Tara's Park So-yeon, who met the "Music Center" special program not long ago at the beginning of the month, and said hello backstage at that time.

But it's not familiar at all, that is, the relationship of saying hello.

When their eyes met, they both smiled and nodded slightly, then staggered their eyes.

After looking around Ji Jingyuan, I really found a lot of idols I knew or seen, and there were three people who came to Tara but didn't sit together, Park So-yeon, Park Hyo-min and Park Ji-yeon.

There are also several girl group members such as erschool, everyone is dressed up and sitting in their seats, competing to highlight their fashion sense and charm.

This kind of fashion catwalk activity is very popular with female idols, and it is a small thing to be able to show her face, mainly because you can connect with the fashion circle, and you can improve some of your fashion coffee positions in the eyes of fans or the public, and create an image of a dresser.

If you are lucky, if your outfit accidentally becomes popular, you can even receive some fashion endorsements.

After a rough sweep, Chi Jingyuan withdrew his gaze, sat on the chair and began to be stunned. The people sitting next to him didn't know him and didn't bother to communicate, it's really boring to participate in this kind of activity alone, it would be much better if there were other members in this one, you can talk to Oh Se-hoon, especially Park Chanyeol, about the secrets of female idols.

After waiting for a while, the music started and the catwalk officially began.

Chi Jingyuan sat up straight, cheered up and looked seriously, and models dressed in different ways walked in front of him, showing all kinds of clothes one by one.

After looking at it for a while, Chi Jingyuan's face remained unchanged, but he sighed secretly in his heart.

It's boring.

In fact, many of the clothes on the models do not conform to Chi Jingyuan's aesthetics, and some clothes that are too avant-garde or even curious are a fashion that Chi Jingyuan can't understand.

Ji Jingyuan couldn't accept these fashions, but I heard Park Jae-hyun say that many fashion brands on the peninsula and some more famous designers liked him, and more or less put forward the idea of cooperation.

But according to his own ideas...... Or the anime co-branded model is more fragrant.

………………

"Ah, Jinjia, are you resting?"

Seeing Ji Jingyuan walking into the practice room, the EXO members who were originally chatting immediately screamed and coaxed a few times, and Wu Shixun also scolded him sarcastically.

Originally, they Chi Jingyuan fainted during the trip and was really worried about him, but later saw that he had been lying in the dormitory for almost a week, and he didn't know what to say.

The company even postponed the album, and it can only be said that it is still the royal family, even if they are actually used to it, but they are panicked if they don't complain.

"Inside, it's a good rest."

Chi Jingyuan waved his hand at him with a smile, walked to Wu Shixun and sat down, stretching: "I've slept too much in the past two days, so I can't sleep at night." “

"Essie."

Seeing Chi Jingyuan's arrogance, Wu Shixun couldn't help but hug him directly and began to pick up, and Du Junxiu next to him also hugged him, venting the unhappiness in his heart.

Two fists are invincible to four hands, and Chi Jingyuan didn't think about fighting back, and his clothes and hair were messed up in an instant. After a few people dispersed, Chi Jingyuan shook his head, glanced at them and straightened his clothes.

When he was tidying up his clothes, he suddenly thought of something, and looked at his teammates with a smile: "Oh yes, I watched the video, you guys walked the catwalk well, where did you learn so much, especially Brother Zhong and Kai ......"

"Ah, don't say it!"

Kim Jong Da and Kai directly interrupted Ji Jingyuan's words with a strong roar, and then shook his head with a wry smile.

It seems that they also know that the previous catwalk has become black history, and they are reluctant to mention it.

In the past few days, because of the postponement of the album, I don't have to stay up so late every day, and it seems that the faces of each member of the members have looked a lot better, and they are obviously a lot more energetic.

Chi Jingyuan found a place to sit down, and the twelve of them chatted in twos and threes.

After about ten minutes, the agent Li Chenghuan walked in with a notebook, nodded at him after seeing Ji Jingyuan, and then stood in the middle of the practice room and clapped his hands, signaling all the members to listen to him carefully.

"After Kyungwon's return, our album project will be restarted, and we will continue to shoot the MV from tomorrow."

"The set of 'DOPE' has been set up, and the professional camera company that needs to shoot has been contacted, and the shooting of 'Overdose' will start as soon as the music video is finished, so you guys are ready."

"Inside." The crowd immediately answered.

The MV of "dope" was designed by Chi Jingyuan, using a half-one-shot to the end, and the shooting of some shots was very demanding, requiring a more professional multi-functional camera, which is rare in the entire peninsula, and SM also needed to find a professional equipment company to rent.

"On the 10th of next month, we will fly to Neon and hold your first fan meeting in Neon in Saitama, the songs that need to be performed, the teacher has already taught you a few days ago, Jingyuan, you remember to make up the lesson."

"Okay." Ji Jingyuan nodded and said there was no problem.

"In addition to preparing the album, our first Asian tour at XO has been confirmed to officially start in late May."

The company has already secured a scheduled venue, and the first concert will be held at the Seoul Olympic Gymnastics Stadium on the 24th and 25th. The performance repertoire company has also agreed, and the professional team responsible for the stage effect design of the concert will be connected with us the day after tomorrow to officially start the preparation for the concert. “

"This tour is the first time we EXO have held a solo concert, so I don't need to mention how significant it is, right?"

Lee Seung-hwan glanced around, and the members either understood or nodded vigorously.

Of course, they know how important the success of the concert is, and to put it simply, it is a proof that they have gone all the way to the peak of popularity.

To be realistic, the quality of the concert is closely related to the income share of each of them, and for the vast majority of Peninsula artists, touring is where idols really make money.

"We've had a lot of time off these days, but we're going to get back to work from tomorrow, and in addition to the album, the preparation for the concert is just as important."

“fighting！“ Lee Seung-hwan waved his right hand and let out a loud sigh.

“fighting！” All the members responded together.

Li Chenghuan smiled and nodded, very satisfied with the fighting spirit of the children, he looked at the notepad in his hand, and then called out a name:

"That's right, Chanyeol."

"Brother." Park Chanyeol immediately raised his hand.

"As I told you before, the position of the regular guest of the SBS variety show "Roommate" has been contacted for you, and filming will officially start next week, which will take up a lot of your time, remember to come back and practice overtime."

"Don't worry, brother, I know."

Park Chanyeol looked excited, grinning and nodding.

Some of the other members all glanced at him, and there was some inexplicable emotion in their eyes.

This kind of variety show regular guest is already a good personal resource, and if it is done well, it will have a very obvious effect on the growth of popularity and fans, and there are not a few members who hope to get this opportunity, but the result finally falls on Park Chanyeol.

Chi Jingyuan is a member of the Tianlong people, they can't compete, and they don't bother to count him in the private competition, not to mention that people do have the talent to write their own songs, and the members are quite convinced, and they have long been used to it.

But although the other members don't talk about it on the surface, the competition between them is also fierce, and everyone wants to get personal resources.

Before they could get entangled, Lee Seung-hwan announced several personal resources in a row:

"Baekhyun, the role of Don Lockwood in the musical "SingingInTheRain" given to you by the company will officially start in late April, and the company will help you coordinate the specific rehearsal time."

", SBS is preparing the TV series "It's Okay, It's Love", the company helped you win the opportunity to audition, and the character's line script will be given to you later, you should prepare well."

"Inside!"

The two people who were named were all excited, and they hurriedly responded, especially Du Junxiu, who has always been very envious of Ji Jingyuan, an actor, and said it several times openly and secretly, this time it was finally given him a chance.

The members who were not named naturally had different expressions, pursed their lips and did not make a sound.

"Jingyuan, come out."

After explaining, Lee Seung-hwan shouted at Ji Jingyuan and beckoned, turned around and walked out. And Chi Jingyuan also quickly got up and followed.

Closing the door of the practice room, the two walked a few steps to the side, and Lee Seung-hwan looked at him and said what he had encountered recently:

"I've heard it internally in the recording company of 'DOPE', but I'm not happy with the finished result."

"You wrote a lot of rap for this song, and the style is a new experiment for EXO, but according to the actual quality of the recording, some members are a little lacking in rap."

"Forehead ......"

Chi Jingyuan wanted to speak and stopped.

The main rapper in the EXO team is Park Chanyeol, basically all the rap in the album from his debut to the present is he singing, although it is not as good as some professional underground rappers, but it is not bad, the rap content in the songs given to EXO by SM company is not much, Park Chanyeol is completely enough.

In addition to Park Chanyeol, there are also rappers on his body such as tao, kai, and Wu Shixun, basically just a responsibility, in fact, there is a little rap in each song, Park Chanyeol alone is not enough to sing, let alone divide, and they are not as good as Park Chanyeol singing.

Compared to EXO's proudest lead singer line, their rap strength is really a little weaker.

This time, the first song "dope", including "INEEDU", has a much higher rap content than previous EXO songs, especially the former has a continuous long rap.

Naturally, so many parts will not be handed over to Park Chanyeol, and the company will give them to several other rap leaders, but looking at what Lee Seung-hwan means, the effect of the recording is a little unsatisfactory.

Team M doesn't know that Ji Jingyuan is here, and Team K is divided by Park Chanyeol, Oh Se-hoon, and Kai, and when Ji Jingyuan listens to it when it is recorded, it is not difficult to hear, and I don't know whose rap the company is dissatisfied with.

"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"

"What the company means is that some rap parts of "DOPE" are for you to try out, and if the results are good, they will be re-recorded." Lee Seung-hwan spoke out about the company's idea.

"Uh...... Brother, I have enough parts for this song. ”

Chi Jingyuan was a little hesitant, he was in the absolute C position in this song, and then grabbed the part of the members, then some people were really completely reduced to backup dancers, and although his rap level was OK, he was a little insensitive.

"You don't have to worry about it, if you re-record, the company will naturally simply re-average the part weight of each member, and you, as a songwriter, are of course still the center of the song."

Lee Seung-hwan waved his hand and spoke quickly.

"What about Team M?" Chi Jingyuan said curiously.

Team M doesn't even have a serious rapper.,It's said that before their debut, their rap was Wu Saike.,After he left, tao came up.,But the actual effect can only be said to be barely audible.。

"Xia Wen's rap is naturally divided among the three members of the Xia Guo line, although the effect of the recording is not very good, but the company can't help it, and there is no one else in the M team."

"Team K can try again because you're here." When it comes to Team M, Lee Seung-hwan is also a little helpless, and the strength of the members is not reluctant.

"Then I'll give it a try." Chi Jingyuan thought about it and nodded in agreement.

"Well, then go to the studio tomorrow to see the effect, if the effect is very good, you can add a sub-rapper in addition to the lead singer in the future."

Li Chenghuan patted Ji Jingyuan's back with a smile, and then asked as if pleased:

"But in the future, Jingyuan, when you create, it's better to add a little less rap words."

"Team M is really not good at this......"

…………

"Didn't our company say everything in the announcement, it's just that the cold has been delayed for a long time, and there is no big problem, haven't you read the announcement?"

Ji Jingyuan was talking on the phone with Zheng Endi while walking, and his smiling expression could tell that he was in a good mood.

After coming to the company today, Team K went to the recording studio, Ji Jingyuan tried to sing rap a few times, and after listening to the comparison, with the joint approval of the record department, the recording engineer, and the vocal teacher, the part of "dope" was reassigned, and the re-recording was carried out as soon as possible.

At the same time, after the company's discussion and decision, Chi Jingyuan added another deputy rapper to the role of EXO, and he may often be assigned some rap parts for some songs in the future.

It's annoying.

It was not over until dinner in the evening, Chi Jingyuan went out to eat with a few members, and when he came back, he just received a call from his old friend Zheng Endi, he motioned for a few members to go first, and he slowly dropped out and chatted in the back.

Zheng Endi called to care about his physical condition, and at the same time, maybe because he hadn't seen her for a long time, he wanted to scold her.

"Are you really an idol in the circle? Who in the circle will believe the notice issued by the economic company, aren't they all used to make fans, don't tell me you believe it. Zheng Endi's voice was full of surprise, as if there was a cognitive bias.

"Haha, others may be like this, but some of the SM's announcements about me will be a little more credible."

Ji Jingyuan laughed happily, and he also felt that what the other party said was very reasonable.

"Okay, it's okay, you're really good, you can be on the first ...... of the hot search when you faint"

Zheng En said a few words sourly, and then suddenly remembered something: "By the way, after the news of your admission to the hospital came out that day, Na En was quite concerned, and she has been paying attention to it, and she sent you a message, right?" “

"What about you? People had a birthday last month, don't say blessings or gifts, not even a word, she waited for a long time that day and looked very disappointed, jinjia, you are really a player scumbag. “

She was not angry, angry at her members.

"You're really wrong......"

Chi Jingyuan pursed his lips, and his voice was a little careless: "If I really sent her any blessing text messages, then you are the scumbag you said." ”

After finishing speaking, his tone changed: "Why, Nan hasn't paid a new male ticket for so long?" ”

"Follow me for news? Regretted it? ”

Zheng Endi's voice raised a tone and said sarcastically, then thought for a while and said, "As far as I know, there should be none." Although you're quite annoying, but I have to say that the charm is really big, and the personality is also interesting and easy to get along with girls to get into, and those idols in the circle are really much worse than you, and it's normal for Nahn to look down on it now. “

"No, are you really Zheng Endi? Speak so highly of me, did you take the wrong medicine? ”

Chi Jingyuan glanced at the phone screen in surprise, and he thought he had recognized the wrong person.

"Hey, let's be honest...... Recently, I and some members have been chasing, and after seeing more, I naturally have some feelings, obviously they are all idols, but the gap is so big, alas, ......"

Her tone was a little sighing, and she sounded a little tired, and she didn't know which male idol made her so disappointed and stimulated.

sighed with emotion, Zheng Endi's tone became clear again, and he made a joke: "If you regret it and want to date, it's really not that easy, Wuli Naen is now a famous iron-walled girl." ”

"Yes."

Chi Jingyuan asked casually:

"Ironwalled Girl? I didn't feel ...... before."
