t it doesn't take long for everything to go back to the way it was.So if they weren't filming tasks in the dorm, Chi Jingyuan and his roommates' dorm was still quite messy, especially the area by the...The next day, Chi Jingyuan made an appointment in the morning and went to the composer Kenzie's place to participate in the arrangement work for the title song "Overdose" of this comeback. 。Kenzie is almost forty years old and was discovered by Lee Soo-man. She is a well-known composer at ** Entertainment, with numerous excellent works since her debut, including many popular songs. She has written songs for several top idol groups, including TVXQ, Super Junior, and Girls' Generation, and holds a high position within the company. 。And she is no longer just a composer, it is said that she is now also serving as a director of s company. Although she may not have much authority in the operational side, at least her status is already there. 。But she was very enthusiastic about Chi Jingyuan, and she praised his song "Roar" highly, giving him several compliments on his songwriting skills. 。When together, Kenzie doesn't seem like a woman near middle age. She is quite cheerful and often laughs non-stop. In her free time from work, she also curiously asks about Ji Jingyuan's private life. 。After officially taking over the arrangement of 《overdose》, I discovered that this song could have actually been finished earlier. It seems the arranger had intentionally left a blank space, and no one filled it. It's clear that the company specifically reserved this for me, Ji Jingyuan, to participate in the creation process of this title track, allowing me to also put my name on the songwriting credits. 。This shows that s values Pool Jingyuan quite a lot. It's extremely rare for s to proactively introduce an artist and sign them, especially for a semi-new group like EXO. Even those senior artists who have debuted for many years don't usually receive this kind of treatment. 。Feeling this kind of attention and encouragement, Chi Jingyuan was actually quite happy and enjoying himself inside. Plus, he really liked the song "Overdose", so naturally, he put all his energy into starting to work hard. 。That's how his schedule became a three-point line between kenzies music room, JYP, and EXO's practice room, constantly running back and forth. He occasionally went out with the team for some errands, making it an incredibly fulfilling time. 。However, fortunately, the work on several tracks went very smoothly. The arrangement of the main song was actually quite challenging from the beginning, but Ji Jingyuan put a lot of effort into making it stand out. 。The practice room's stage, needless to say, is their old stomping ground. 。And the progress of the collaboration single on jyp's side is also very fast, Suzy really has opened up a bit, although her voice hasn't reached that kind of full-bodied emotion yet, but she already has the ambiguity they have been pursuing, so the recording progress is also very fast, at this rate, it won't take a few days for the recording work to be completed and the v can be filmed. 。A week flew by, and it's January 16th now. 。After several days of preheating and the release of a debut trailer video, yesterday, GOT7's title song "v" was officially released. On the 16th, JYP announced that their boy group GOT7 had officially debuted and held a showcase to display their debut stage, attracting many fans and viewers. 。But just as soon as this news was released, JYP's PR department was still waiting to see the online reaction when another even more explosive piece of news stole everyone's attention. 。JYP's major shareholder, LOEN Entertainment, sought to gain control of JYP but was unsuccessful after Park Jin-young's operation to list the company through a backdoor listing. Today, they announced the sale of all their JYP shares. 。The departure and statement of major shareholders caused uninformed investors to panic and sell their shares, leading to a frenzied plunge in JYP's stock price. The entire company was thrown into chaos. 。Meanwhile, all eyes were drawn to this news, and the news about their debut with GOT7 was completely overshadowed. It was as if no one cared anymore. 。Although several unknown companies quietly absorbed all the shares JYP sold after Loen's exit, pushing up its stock price, it still failed to restore investors' confidence and industry market recognition. For a time, JYP was somewhat precarious. 。At this moment, Ji Jingyuan was sitting on a small sofa against the wall in the temporary backstage lounge at Seoul's Kyung Hee University Peace Hall, the venue for today's Golden Disc Awards. He had already finished his styling and was comfortably reclining with his legs crossed, holding his phone and staring intently at the screen. 。"What are you looking at" Wu Shixun walked over and sat on the armrest of the sofa, tilting his head to look at Ji Jingyuan's phone. 。"Check out the title track of that new boy group JYP debuted today v" 。“Chi Jingyuan looked at the screen without turning his head, replying with a single sentence.” 。"A new JYP boy group Debuting today I have no idea." 。"Wu Shih-hsien listened, sounding somewhat puzzled, as if he had never heard of this news." 。This is also GOT7's downfall, whether it's the pre-release news or the official debut announcement, they were completely overshadowed by more explosive news. The former coincided with IU's dating scandal being revealed, and the latter happened when JYP's stock price plummeted. 。Only their loyal fans and people interested in this kind of news would know about it. It's really a shame. 。"How's this new group" Wu Shi-hun glanced 。"The song is average... The video quality is also average." 。"Chi Jingyuan lightly shook his head, giving his own evaluation." 。After listening to GOT7's title track "Girls Girls Girls," Park Jinyoung thought the song was pretty bland. To emphasize its addictive quality, he repeated certain rhythms endlessly, making it hard to distinguish between verses and choruses if you weren't paying close attention. The entire song lacked significant changes in intensity. 。He thinks this song is not as good as their debut song "aa" by EXO, even though "aa" was heavily criticized at the time, leading to EXO's initial lack of popularity. However, it still had its own highlights, at least the religious and ritualistic feeling left a deep impression on people. 。And the styling of 《aa》 is so ugly that it makes people want to yell at it nonstop. That's a skill in itself. 。" is not a particularly outstanding look, but it's not bad either. It's just mediocre. After listening to it, I have almost no impression of anything other than its infinitely repeating beats." 。It seems that this song was still personally written, composed, and arranged by Park Jin-young, but the quality doesn't seem to be as good as what Ji-yeong imagined. 。Park Jin-young wrote several good songs for ISSA, especially since her debut song helped her win an award in less than 5 months. This shows the exceptional quality of his work. 。I didn't expect the boy group to be at this level, it's a bit disappointing. 。After watching the whole thing, Park Jin-young's impression of several GOT7 members, besides the one who always does flips, wasn't very strong. 。Although he didn't find many familiar faces, he did spot a few in v. A few of the cast members were from JYP's new girl group 6IX, like Yu Dingyan and that cute bunny-toothed Ji Seongwon, who was even the female lead in this v! 。Although it's not very beautiful, it has a distinctive look. 。"Jeongwon, come here for a second. I have something to tell you and the others about tonight's awards ceremony..." Lee Seonghwan beckoned from the doorway. Ji Jeongwon glanced over, put down his phone, and followed Kim Junmyeon and the others out. 。The 28th Golden Disc Awards officially began at 4:00 PM. 。Every year, the Golden Disc Awards are held in two parts. The first half awards various prizes and grand prizes in the digital music category, while the second half awards prizes and grand prizes in the physical album category. 。And the two halves won't start consecutively either. This year's awards ceremony will begin in the afternoon at 4:00 pm for the first half, and the second half will start at 8:00 pm. 。In the first half, several awards were presented. As the event progressed to the middle, EXO and f(x) who had been prepared beforehand took the stage for a special version of "Songs Through the Ages" performance. The group began with a performance of "Spell", then went backstage. f(x) then went on stage to perform "The Boys". Following that, EXO returned to perform "Sorry Sorry." Finally, all members from both groups came together on stage for the closing remarks. 。Ji Jingyuan and the members of EXO are all dressed in formal black suits and leather shoes for their stage performance. They look handsome and serious, very stylish. 。He is undeniably handsome, but his performance just now had a few flaws. 。The K team didn't have any problems, but both Baekhyun and Tao had noticeable mistakes during their stage performance. They got several parts wrong and it wasn't clear if they were nervous or something else. It's strange because they already knew the stage well and had practiced for a long time recently. 。After leaving the stage, they returned to the waiting room. As soon as Se-won stepped in, he could feel a heavy atmosphere. He looked up and saw Lee Seung-hwan and their manager, Lim Hyun-jun, standing inside with grim faces. Their eyes were fixed on the returning EXO members with an intense stare. After everyone had entered, they focused their gaze on Baekhyun and Tao, who had made the mistake earlier. 。Both of them knew their mistake was serious and they were definitely going to be scolded, so they both hung their heads and dared not speak. 。The other members also stood silently, afraid of becoming collateral damage. 。After watching them for a while, Li Cheng Huan didn't scold them. He said, "You still have to go on stage later. There are performances and awards in the second half. Get ready quickly. We can talk about other things when we go back." 。He was clearly worried that EXO still had some very important stages coming up, and now scolding the members would only lead to more mistakes. Lee Seung-hwan glared harshly at Baekhyun and Tao, while also scanning the other members standing beside them: “You guys can even make mistakes on stage like this You've really been slacking off lately.” 。 。"Well, I guess I'll just go change my clothes first." 。Lee Cheng-huan waved his hand and walked out with Lin Xuanjun. 。After they left, several people let out a long sigh of relief. Tao's sweat had already dripped from his forehead to the tip of his nose, while Bo-hyun exaggeratedly patted his chest with a terrified expression. 。"What's going on We didn't make any mistakes during rehearsals, so why is this happening during the actual performance" "Remember to treat us to a meal, because we're definitely going to be scolded when we go back." 。"Park Chan-wook stood beside him, sneering and giving an ill-tempered reminder." 。I don't know what happened, I suddenly forgot what to do. 。"Bichen frowned, looking both helpless and innocent." 。"Forget it, let's talk later. Don't spoil the mood, there's still a performance coming up. I'll go change clothes first." 。Seeing that the atmosphere wasn't good, Kim Jun-myeon patted his hands and stood up to say a few words. The members stopped complaining and quickly started preparing. 。In the first half of the show, EXO only had this one performance stage. Their main stage and award ceremony were concentrated in the second half of the show. 。...and the grand prize for the first half of the sound source department was awarded to psy. ... 。Psy released a new single, "Gentleman," in April 2013. However, its influence and popularity were far less than his global hit "Gangnam Style" from 2012. 。However, "Gangnam Style" successfully propelled his fame internationally, making him a household name in the peninsula. This year's "Gentleman," riding on that wave of popularity, although its performance pales in comparison to last year's, is still considered objectively decent. 。"Gangnam Style" was incredibly successful, so successful that even though PSY released mediocre songs for years afterward to capitalize on his fame, he still managed to make a good living off it. 。The first half of the awards ceremony ended with Psy's speech. It was almost six o'clock by then, and EXO hadn't dared to eat anything. They just found some snacks and cookies to fill their stomachs a little. Backstage in the waiting room, they chatted for a while with senior groups from the same company. 。Today, a lot of people came to the Golden Disk Awards, including EXO, f(x), and SHE. Girls' Generation only had a few members attend, with Taeyeon and Tiffany still performing in the second half. 。After chatting and joking for a few minutes, they parted ways to prepare for their upcoming performances. Shortly after, the second half of the Golden Disc Awards officially began at 8:00 PM. 。The opening is also a series of 'Generations' award-winning song medley'. 。But this time, unlike their ancestors' glory and large numbers, they couldn't perform a company combination performance like their senior predecessors' award-winning songs. The second half of the stage was a collaboration stage for several different companies' idols. 。Because there was no designated artist seating, Ji-seong and the members sat in the backstage lounge, watching the live broadcast on TV. 。When he saw the apk appearing, his eyes lit up slightly, and he was a little surprised. 。The apk is currently performing on stage, performing the hit song "Happiness" by h.o.t. 。What surprised Ji Jingyuan was that their stage outfits and styling were very distinctive. All six of them wore blue denim overalls with red striped shirts, giving off a youthful and energetic vibe that made people want to shout out praise. 。Sun Na-eun's twintails are already eye-catching, but what surprised Ji Kyeong-won the most was the leader, Park Chorong. 。In his impression, Pu Chulong had always been a weak and chubby female idol who didn't quite meet the standards, existing like an edge piece in the apk. 。It's just that Ji Jingyuan hadn't paid much attention before. Now, watching her on stage, she suddenly realized that the Pu Chulong in his memory, who was always a bit chubby and lacked star quality, now has a very standard figure. 。At this time, she was wearing overalls and a side ponytail. Standing there, she immediately caught the eye. She was really different from last year's her. 。As expected, everyone is striving and making progress... Looking at the lively apk on stage, Ji Jingyuan sighed in his heart. 。To be honest, he felt that the APK version stage had more charm than when they sang their own songs in the first half. It looked lively and youthful, very likeable. 。Unfortunately, out of the six people, only Jung Eun-ji can sing. 。Soon after the opening, exo went onstage to receive an award. After receiving their award, they performed their stages, "tro" and "Roar". 。This 《tro》 they performed once last year at the end-of-year stage, it was a chord variation melody paired with a special choreography. The process was short, less than a minute, but it sounded very rhythmic and the dance was also cool. 。"" has never officially released an audio source. After performing last year, this segment received a lot of praise, and many fans hope that the company will release the audio source and MV of "". The calls are very high, but unfortunately, the company has never shown any intention to do so." 。After that, there was no need for further praise of "Roar". The appearance of the hit song naturally led to cheers and a chorus from the entire audience, raising the atmosphere of the award ceremony to a high point from the beginning of the second half. 。As the audience screamed, EXO left the stage. As soon as they walked backstage, Pool Jingyuan, Kim Jun-myeon and a few others quickened their pace, running to the dressing room to change clothes. They four were going to be award presenters shortly and needed to put on formal suits. 。Soon, after the stage, Ji Chang-wook, Kim Jun-myeon, Park Chan-yeol, and Kai stood on the stage, delivering the award speech. 。This award is a newcomer's award, and it is usually presented by last year's winner to this year's winner. This signifies the meaning of passing on the torch from one generation to the next. 。Last year's newcomer award winner was EXO, so this year they became the presenter. 。The funniest thing for Ji-yuan was that the award they were giving out was to the group that Wu Saik joined, BTS. 。BTS started out as a small company, and their operational capabilities weren't particularly strong. The fact that they were able to win the Golden Disk Award for Best New Artist is considered quite good development for them. 。Although they haven't won a single competition yet, their music style is quite unique and there are a couple of members with good looks, which has attracted a fair amount of popularity. 。BTS can be considered one of the few male idol groups that managed to make some waves in the latter half of last year, despite being overshadowed by EXO's "Growl." 。Watching the BTS members stand before him, accepting the trophy and bowing repeatedly, especially with Woo Seock's forced business-like smile and his continuous bowing in Ji-seong's direction, Pool Kyung-won felt that this scene was truly interesting. The development of events was truly unpredictable. 。According to Chi Jingyuan's estimation, if it weren't for the current situation of presenting awards on stage, given Wu Saik's hatred and dislike towards him, he would probably spit in his face and then stomp on him. 。Thinking of this, Chi Jingyuan smiled and proactively extended his hand to shake hands with Wu Saike. He even used the other party's understandable Chinese, his tone sincere yet playful as he encouraged him: "Come on!"Seeing Chi Jingyuan extend his hand, Wu Saike was taken aback for a moment, hesitated for half a second before hurriedly reaching out to shake it and bowing in greeting. Only when he heard that "come on!", his expression stiffened visibly, his eyebrows twitching slightly. 。Looking at the other party's reaction, Jingyuan almost burst into laughter. They stood aside and watched BTS deliver their acceptance speech after the award ceremony. 。He noticed something as he was looking. Wu Saik's position was a little bit apart from the other six people, not very obvious, but if you looked closely, you could see it. 。He stood at the edge, his face clearly wanting to speak, constantly looking to his left. But the members there seemed oblivious, passing the microphone back and forth in endless chatter. 。He only passed the microphone over at the end, letting him say a few words of thanks in Xiawen. That concluded this year's awards ceremony. 。When they were leaving, they didn't walk together either. Wu Saik walked in the front, and the other few people walked behind him, with a gap of distance between them. 。Ji Jingyuan shook his head. He could tell at a glance that the atmosphere in BTS now was probably not good, and the members might not get along very well. 。But he wasn't really involved, so after a quick glance, he looked away. 。As the awards ceremony neared its end, unsurprisingly, the grand prize for the album category went to EXO. 。Standing on the award stage, enjoying the enthusiastic bg and the deafening cheers from below, the members were all smiling happily, but they had also become more composed. They weren't as overwhelmed with excitement as they had been at previous awards ceremonies. 。At least no one emotionally broke down and cried out in pain. 。After each member shared their words, Ji-seong also spoke in English for a while. With that, the Golden Disc Awards were almost over, leaving only EXO's final encore stage. 。To be honest, this speech wasn't as heartfelt as the previous two. It was mostly generic thank-you phrases. 。You can only say that many things, although you are still happy after getting them, they will not be as cherished and valued as they were before. 。Entering EXO's encore stage, all the other artists left the stage, only FX and SHEE, from the same company, remained to hype up the crowd and dance along with them during the encore, showcasing their family bond. 。Silver ribbons streamed down from the ceiling, and the music to "Roar" began. The encore stage didn't require such formal dancing; members stood at the front of the stage with microphones, interacting with fans in the audience while happily singing along. 。Chi Jingyuan stood at the back of the group, deliberately letting his figure be obscured by others, maintaining a smile and waving a microphone. 。At this time, one of the c's from the second half, Kim Tae-yeon, walked over in a white long dress and high heels, step by step, stood beside Ji-sung Choi, smiling very happily, clapping her hands and joining in the encore. 。"Nu Na, don't those high heels tire you out" Ji Jingyuan glanced at Kim Tae-yeon, noticing her unusually tall height. He put down the phone and leaned closer to ask. 。Because he was on stage, he wasn't very close and it was a safe distance. He just wanted the other person to be able to hear him speak. 。"Not bad, right" Kim Taeyeon looked up and down at her dress, asking in return. 。It looks pretty good. 。"Pool View Source Speaks Honestly" 。It's enough to look good, whether it's tiring or not doesn't matter. 。"Kim Taeyeon blinked her eyes and smiled nonchalantly." 。At this time, Cui Xueli, who was just standing behind them, also walked up, stood beside Chi Jingyuan, and smiled brightly to congratulate them on winning the grand prize. 。Seeing this relative, Chi Jingyuan also smiled happily and chatted a few words. 。At this time, Kim Jun-Myeon, who was performing energetically at the front, turned his head and gave Park Ji-Seong two meaningful glances. The meaning was very clear: stop messing around and get serious. 。And Chi Jingyuan immediately understood, picked up the microphone and sang a few lines along, while also symbolically performing the dance from the chorus of "Roar," which was already in full swing. 。Seeing Ji Chang Wook's actions, Jin Tae Yeon and Choi Soo Young next to him, as well as Jung Soo Jung who had run up to him at some point, also smiled and started jumping along. Their movements were very unstandard, and Jin Tae Yeon, wearing super high heels, couldn't even lift her feet, looking like she was just playing along. 。However, the sight of these four people dancing to "Roar" together is also really interesting. It might even become a classic moment that fans reminisce about from 2014 years later. 。After returning backstage, the EXO members celebrated happily for a while and chatted with their seniors from the company before dispersing. Li Cheng Huan called all the members together to take certification photos and upload them to SNS. 。He just glanced at the members, and he found a few people missing: "Where's tao, where's han Where did they go"
The next day, Ji Jingyuan made an appointment in the morning and went to composer Kenzie's place to participate in the arrangement work for this comeback's title song, 《overdose》
Kenzie is nearly forty years old and was discovered by Lee Soo-man. She is a well-known composer at , and since her debut, she has consistently produced excellent works and created many hit songs. She has written songs for several popular groups, including TVXQ, Super Junior, and Girls' Generation, and holds a high position within the company. 。And she's no longer just a composer, reportedly serving as a director at company s. While she may not have much authority over operations, her position is definitely there. 。However, she was very enthusiastic about Chi Jingyuan. She praised his song "Roar" highly and gave him several compliments on his songwriting skills. 。When they are together, kenzie doesn't seem like a woman close to middle age. She is quite cheerful and often laughs. She also curiously asks about some of chi jingyuan's private matters when she's not working. 。>After formally taking over the arrangement for "overdose," I discovered that this song could have been completed much earlier. It seems the arranger had intentionally left a blank space, and no one filled it. At first glance, it's clear that the company specifically reserved this spot for Chi Jingyuan, allowing him to participate in the creation of this title track and include his name in the song credits. 。This shows that s really values Ji Jingyuan. It's extremely rare for someone in s to proactively recommend artists and sign them, especially for a semi-new group like EXO. Even those senior idols who have debuted for many years don't usually receive this kind of treatment. 。Feeling this kind of attention and support, Chi Jingyuan was actually quite happy and enjoyed it. Coupled with the fact that he really liked the song "Overdose," he naturally put all his energy into working hard. 。Thus, his schedule became a three-point line: Kenzie's music room, JYP, and EXO's practice room, constantly running back and forth. He occasionally went out with the team for activities, making it incredibly fulfilling at times. 。However, fortunately, the work on several lines went smoothly. The arrangement of the main song was actually quite challenging, but池景源 put in a lot of effort to make it stand out. 。The practice room's stage, needless to say, is their old stomping ground. 。and the progress of the collaboration single on jyp's side is also very fast, Bae Suzy really opened a point, although the voice has not yet reached that full of emotion, but it has already had the ambiguity they have always pursued, so the recording progress is also very fast, at this rate it will be completed in a few days recording work, you can shoot v. 。A week passed in the blink of an eye, and it was January 16th. 。After several days of pre-heating and the release of a public debut teaser video, yesterday after the main song "v" was released, on the 16th, JYP announced that their male group GOT7 officially debuted and held a showcase to display their debut stage, attracting many fans and viewers. 。Just as this news was released, JYP's publicity department was still watching the online reaction when another even more explosive piece of news stole everyone's attention. 。JYP's major shareholder, LOEN Entertainment, was seeking to take control of JYP. However, due to Park Jin-young's operation of the company listing through a shell company, it failed. Today, LOEN announced that it will sell all of its JYP shares. 。The withdrawal and statement of major shareholders led to misinformed retail investors following suit and selling their shares, causing JYP's stock price to plummet wildly. The entire company fell into panic. 。And all eyes were drawn to this news, causing the debut news about GOT7 to be completely overshadowed and largely ignored. 。Although several unknown companies quietly absorbed all the shares sold by LOEN after their exit, pulling JYP's stock price back up to some extent, it still failed to restore investor confidence and industry market recognition. For a while, JYP was in a precarious position. 。At this moment, Ji Jingyuan was sitting on a small sofa by the wall in the temporary backstage lounge at Seoul's Kyunggu University Peace Hall, the venue for the Golden Disc Awards. He had finished his styling and was comfortably lounging with one leg crossed over the other, holding his phone and looking at the screen. 。"What are you looking at" Wu Shixun walked over and sat on the arm of the sofa, turning his head to look at Ji Jingyuan's phone. 。"Check out JYP's new boy group debut song today." 。"Chi Jingyuan looked at the screen without turning his head, and replied with a single sentence." 。"A new JYP boy group Debuting today I don't know anything about this." 。Wu Shih-hsuan listened, a little puzzled, as if he had never heard this news. 。This is also GOT7's downfall, whether it's the announcement of pre-release news or the official debut announcement, they were overshadowed by more explosive news. The former coincided with IU's dating scandal exposure, and the latter happened when JYP stock plummeted. 。Only fans who have been following them consistently and people interested in this kind of news would know about it. It's really a shame. 。"How is this new team doing" Wu Shixun glanced 。"The song is okay... The video isn't great either." 。"Chi Jingyuan gently shook his head and gave his own evaluation." 。After listening to GOT7's title track "Girls Girls Girls," Park Jinyoung found the song quite bland. To emphasize its addictiveness, he repeated several beats endlessly, making it difficult to discern where the verses and choruses were. The song lacked significant fluctuations throughout. 。He felt that this song was not as good as their EXO debut song, 《aa》, although 《aa》 was criticized harshly at the time, leading to EXO's immediate obscurity. However, it also had its own highlights, at least the religious and ritualistic feeling made a deep impression on people. 。And the styling of 《aa》 is so ugly that it makes people want to curse non-stop, which is a skill in itself. 。"《girlsgirlsgirls》 is not outstanding in terms of styling, it's just average and not bad. After listening to it, besides the infinitely repeating few beats, I have almost no impression." 。It seems like this song was still personally written, composed, and arranged by Park Jin-young, but the quality doesn't seem as good as what Park Kyung-won imagined. 。M. Park's songs for I.S.A are all quite good, especially since her debut song earned a major award in less than 5 months. It shows the high quality of his work. 。I didn't expect the boy group to be at this level, it's a little disappointing. 。When watching the whole video, Chi Jingyuan's impression of several GOT7 members is that besides the one who always does backflips, he doesn't have much feeling for the others. 。However, he did find some familiar faces in the V. Several of the actors were members of JYP's new girl group 6IX, like Yu Dingyan and that bunny-toothed Ji Kyoungwon. Bunny-teeth was also the female lead in this V. 。Although it's not very beautiful, it has a distinctive look. 。"Kyungyoon, come here for a moment. I have something to tell you guys about the awards ceremony tonight..." Lee Seung-hwant beckoned from the doorway. Pool Kyung-yoon glanced up, put down his phone, and walked out with Kim Jun-myeon and a few others. 。The 28th Golden Disk Awards began at 4:00 PM. 。Every year, the Golden Disc Awards is held in two parts. The first half awards various awards and grand prizes in the digital sound source category. The second half awards awards and grand prizes in the album category. 。And the two halves of the ceremony will not be consecutive this year. The first half will begin at 4:00 PM, while the second half will start at 8:00 PM. 。In the first half of the event, several awards were given out. As the program progressed to the middle section, EXO and f(x), who were already prepared backstage, took the stage for a special version of their "All-Time Great Song Medley" performance. The group started with a performance of "Growl," then went back to the waiting area. f(x) followed by performing "The Boys," after which EXO returned to the stage for a performance of "Sorry Sorry." Finally, all members of both groups came together on stage for the closing remarks. 。Ji Chang-wook and the members of EXO are all dressed in formal black suits and shoes for the stage, looking handsome and serious, with a great feel. 。He's definitely handsome, but his performance just now had some flaws. 。The k team didn't have any problems, but Berhyen and Tao made obvious mistakes during their stage performance. They got the moves wrong for more than one part, and it's unclear if they were nervous or something else. They should be familiar with this stage by now, and they've been practicing for so long recently. 。After leaving the stage, they returned to the waiting room. The moment Kai stepped in, he felt a heavy atmosphere. Looking up, he saw Lee Seong-hwan and their manager, Lim Hyun-jun, with grim faces, standing inside. They glared at the returning EXO members with sharp eyes. After everyone entered, their gazes focused on Baekhyun and Tao, who had made the mistake earlier. 。These two also knew their mistake was very serious and they would definitely be scolded. Both hung their heads and dared not speak. 。The other members also stood there silently, afraid of becoming collateral damage. 。He looked at them for a while but didn't scold them. He said, "You guys still have to go on stage later. There are performances and awards in the second half. Get ready quickly. We can talk about other things later." 。He obviously worried about EXO's upcoming important stage. Criticizing the members now would only lead to more mistakes later, so Lee Seung-hwang glared fiercely at Baekhyun and Tao, while also scanning the other members standing beside them: "You can even make such a mistake on stage, you guys have really been slacking off lately." 。 The members quietly said nothing. 。Alright, I'll go change my clothes first. 。Lee Seung-hwan waved his hand and walked out with Lim Hyeon-jun. 。After they left, several people let out a long sigh of relief. Tao's sweat was already dripping from his forehead to the tip of his nose, while Baekhyun exaggeratedly patted his chest, looking terrified. 。"What's going on We didn't make any mistakes during rehearsals, so why is this happening now" "Remember to treat us to dinner because we're definitely going to get scolded when we go back." 。Park Chan-wook stood beside him, rolling his eyes and giving a less than helpful reminder. 。"I don't know what happened, I suddenly forgot the action." 。"Bian Bianxian frowned, looking both helpless and innocent. " 。"Forget it, let's talk later. Don't let this affect your mood, there's still a performance coming up. Let me change my clothes first." 。Seeing the atmosphere wasn't good, Kim Jun Myeon clapped his hands, stood up and said a couple of words, the members stopped complaining and quickly started preparing. 。 。...and the Sound Source Department's grand prize for the first half of the year was ultimately awarded to PSY. 。Psy released a new single, "Gentleman," in April 2013. However, its influence and popularity were far less than his global hit "Gangnam Style" from 2012. 。However, "Gangnam Style" successfully launched his fame and he became a household name on the peninsula. This year's "Gentleman" rode the wave of this popularity, although its performance was far less successful than last year's, it received objectively decent reviews. 。Gangnam Style was incredibly successful, so successful that even though Psy released subpar songs in the following years to capitalize on his fame, he could still rake in profits for many years. 。The first half of the awards ceremony ended with Psy's speech. It was almost six o'clock, and EXO didn't dare to eat anything. They just found some snacks and cookies to fill their stomachs. In the backstage lounge, they chatted with senior groups from the same company for a while. 。Today, a lot of people came to the Golden Disc Awards, including EXO, f(x), and Sheez. Girls' Generation only had a few members attend, with Taeyeon and Tiffany joining in the second half. 。After chatting and joking for a few minutes, they went their separate ways to prepare for the next performance. Shortly after, the second half of the Golden Disk Awards began at 8:00 PM. 。The opening is also a string of "Classic Hits Medley". 。However, this time it's not like their ancestors' glory and large numbers. They can't perform company combination performances like their senior predecessors' award-winning songs. The second half of the ver stage is a collaborative stage of several different companies' idols. 。Because there was no artist seating, Ji Jingyuan and the members sat in the backstage waiting room, watching the live broadcast on TV. 。When he saw the apk appear, his eyes lit up, and he was slightly surprised. 。At this moment, the apk stage is hosting a performance by h.o.t., singing their hit song "Happiness". 。The thing that surprised Chi Jingyuan was that their stage outfits and styling were very distinctive. All six of them wore blue denim overalls with red striped shirts, giving off a youthful and energetic vibe. It made people want to shout out praise. 。Sun Naeun's twintails are already eye-catching, but what surprised Park Chulongs the most was her. 。In his memory, Pukucholong was always a female idol with a weak presence, plump and lacking in figure. She existed like a frame within the APK. 。It's just that Chi Jingyuan hadn't paid much attention to her before. Seeing her on stage now, he suddenly realized that the plain and chubby Pu Chulong in his memory had become very fit. 。At this time, she was wearing overalls and a side braid. Standing there, she immediately caught the eye. Compared to last year, she was completely different. 。Indeed, everyone is working hard, and everyone is making progress... Looking at the lively and jumping apk on stage, Ji Jingyuan sighed in his heart. 。Honestly, he felt that the APK version stage was more charming than when they sang their own songs in the first half. They looked lively and youthful, very likeable. 。Unfortunately, out of the six people, only Jung Eun Ji could sing. 。Shortly after the opening, EXO went on stage to receive an award. After receiving the award, they performed their stages, “tro” and “Roar”. 。This 《tro》 they performed once on a year-end stage last year, it was a chord variation melody with a special choreography. The process was very short, only less than a minute, but it sounded very rhythmic and the dance was very cool. 。"tro" has never been officially released as a music source. After performing on stage last year, this part received a lot of praise, and many fans hope that the company will release the audio and video of "tro", the call is very high, but unfortunately, the company has no intention of doing so. 。After that, "Roar" didn't need much further praise. The appearance of the hit song naturally led to cheers and a sing-along from the entire audience, pushing the atmosphere of the award ceremony's second half to a high point right from the start. 。As EXO exited the stage to the screams of the audience, Ji-sung, Kim Junmyeon, and a few others quickened their pace and ran backstage. They headed to the dressing room to change into suits. The four of them were going to be award presenters shortly and needed to dress appropriately. 。Soon, after the stage, Ji Chang-wook, Kim Jun-myeon, Park Chan-wook, and Kai stood on the stage and delivered an award speech. 。This award is a newcomer award, and it is usually presented by last year's winner to this year's winner, symbolizing the passing of the torch. 。Last year's rookie award winner was EXO, so this year they became the presenters. 。What made Ji Jingyuan laugh the most was that the award they were presenting went to the group that Wusei joined, BTS. 。BTS is a small company, and their operational capabilities aren't very strong. They being able to receive the Golden Disc Award for Best New Artist is considered quite good development. 。Although they haven't won a single award yet, their unique musical style and a couple of good-looking members have attracted a considerable fanbase. 。BTS can be considered as one of the few male idol groups that managed to make a splash in the second half of last year, despite being overshadowed by EXO's "Growl". 。Watching the BTS members in front of him accept the trophy and keep bowing, especially Woo Seock-jung's forced business smile and his continuous bowing towards him, Ji Kyung-won felt that this scene was really interesting. The development of things was truly unpredictable. 。According to Chi Jingyuan's estimation, if they weren't currently on stage awarding prizes, given Wu Sike's hatred and disgust for him, he would probably spit in his face and then step on him twice. 。Thinking of this, Chi Jingyuan smiled and proactively extended his hand to shake Wu Saike's. He also spoke in Chinese that the other party could understand, his tone sincere yet playful as he gave a encouraging remark: "加油!" Seeing Chi Jingyuan extend his hand, Wu Saike was taken aback for a moment, hesitated for half a second before quickly reaching out to shake and bowing in greeting. Only when he heard the phrase "加油!", his expression visibly stiffened, his brows twitching slightly. 。Looking at the other party's reaction, Ji-yeong almost burst out laughing. They just stood aside and watched BTS give their acceptance speech after awarding the prize. 。As he looked, he noticed something. Wu Saike's position was a little bit apart from the other six people, not very obvious, but if you looked closely, you could tell. 。He stood at the very edge, with an expression on his face as if he wanted to speak. He kept looking to the left, but the members there seemed to not see him and just passed the microphone back and forth, talking endlessly. 。It was only at the end that they passed the microphone to him, allowing him to say a few words of thanks in Xiawen. This concluded the awards ceremony. 。When they left, they didn't walk together either. Wu Saik walked in the front, and the others followed behind, with a noticeable distance between them. 。Ji Jingyuan shook his head. He could tell at a glance that the atmosphere within BTS right now was probably not good, and the members might not get along very well. 。However, he wasn't really related to the situation either. He just glanced at it briefly and then looked away. 。As the awards ceremony neared its end, as expected, the grand prize in the record category went to EXO. 。Standing on the podium, basking in the exhilaration of the bg music and the deafening cheers from below, the members, though smiling brightly, appeared much more composed. They weren't as overwhelmed with excitement as they had been during their previous big wins. 。At least no one lost control of their emotions and cried out in pain. 。After each member had shared their thoughts, Ji-Seung also delivered a short speech in English. With that, the Golden Disc Awards were almost over, leaving only EXO's final encore stage. 。To be honest, this time my speech wasn't as heartfelt as the previous two times. It was mostly generic thank-you phrases. 。You can only say that many things, although you are still happy after getting them, you will not cherish and value them as much as before when you didn't have them. 。After entering the encore stage of EXO, all other artists left, only fx and SHEE from the same company remained on stage to cheer along with them. They also showcased their family bond during the encore. 。Silver ribbons kept falling from the sky, the music of "" started playing, and the encore stage didn't need to be as formal for dancing. The members held microphones at the front of the stage, interacting with the audience and fans while happily singing. 。Chi Jingyuan stood at the back of the members, deliberately letting his figure be blocked by others. He kept smiling and was holding a microphone, waving it around in the air. 。At this time, Jin Tae-yeon, one of the c in the second half, walked over step by step in a white long dress and high heels. She stood beside Ji Kyeong-won, smiling happily and clapping along with the cheers for an encore. 。"Nu Na, don't those high heels tire you out" Ji Jingyuan glanced at Kim Tae-yeon and noticed the obvious difference in height. He put down his phone and leaned closer to ask. 。Because he was on stage, he wasn't very close, it was still a safe distance, just so the other person could hear him speak. 。"Don't you think it looks good" Kim Taeyeon looked up and down at her dress and asked back. 。"Quite good-looking" 。Pool Jingyuan speaking the truth. 。It's good-looking enough, it doesn't matter if it's tiring or not. 。"Kim Taeyeon blinked and smiled nonchalantly." 。At this moment, Choi Se-ri, who had just been standing behind them, also walked up and stood beside Ji Kyung-won. She smiled brightly and congratulated them on winning the grand prize. 。Seeing this relative, Chi Jingyuan also smiled happily and chatted a few words. 。At this time, Kim Min-jae, who had been energetically performing on stage moments ago, turned his head and gave a discreet look to Ji Seongwon. His message was clear: stop messing around and get serious. 。And Chi Jingyuan immediately understood, picked up the microphone and sang along for a few lines, while also symbolically performing the dance of "Roaring" that was now in the chorus. 。Seeing Ji Chang Wook's actions, the nearby Kim Taeyeon and Choi Sooyoung, as well as Jung Soojung who had arrived at his side at some point, also laughed and jumped along. Their movements were all very unstandard, even with the super high heels on her feet, Kim Taeyeon couldn't lift her legs up, looking like she was just joining in for fun. 。However, the sight of these four people dancing together to "Roar" is really interesting. It might even become a classic scene that fans look back on as a reminder of 2014 years from now. 。After going back to the backstage, Exo's members happily celebrated for a while. After chatting with their seniors from the company for a bit, they all went their separate ways. Lee Seong-hwan called all the members together to prepare for taking certification photos to upload to SNS. 。He just glanced at the members and found a few were missing: "Where's tao, where's han Where did they go"n its entirety, only a silhouette that begs further exploration.Like shadows in the night, monsters in the fog.Amidst the thunderous roar of the crowd and the dazzling silver light that covered the la...
