t friends in the industry.Originally, after EXO-K found out about the drama's filming, Kim Junmyeon suggested that they pool their money to send a car as support for Park Kyung-won. However, consideri...Sunny was lying there, mumbling and cursing. She berated every member of Girls' Generation harshly, not even sparing herself.
She was completely different from her usual self, but her way of speaking was still just as sharp.
Looking at Lee Sun-kyu, who was either genuinely drunk or just wanted to get drunk for once, Ji Kyeong-won sighed softly and shoved the last piece of wrapped barbecue into his mouth. He chewed it absentmindedly while clapping his hands and getting up.
First, he went out to settle the bill with the boss, but only then did he realize Sunny had already paid. After rolling his eyes, Ji-seong took out his phone and called over Choi Ji-chang and Park In-hyeon. Together with the boss, they helped Sunny into the car.
She knew the address of her apartment, Chi Jingyuan very clearly, but she didn't have the key.
What's interesting is that when he tested Sunny by asking where she kept the keys to send her back, although she was dazed, she clearly understood. She lightly patted the bag hanging on her body, indicating it was inside.
Are you drunk or not, sis
They exchanged helpless glances and a few people escorted her back together.
The next morning, while the crew was preparing to move sets after filming the first scene, Sunny probably woke up. Ji-yeong, who was sipping iced water handed to him by his assistant, received a message from her.
"Thanks."
It was a very brief thank you, and the tone sounded a little robotic. However, after seeing it, Ji Jingyuan's mood improved. He clicked on the screen and replied with a 'parachute' emoji.
Show them they are all paratroopers, good buddies who parachuted in together.
After a few seconds, Sunny sent another emoji of a missile, looking like she was going to shoot down the paratroopers in the sky. Ji Jingyuan couldn't help but laugh helplessly at this.
After that, there was no more talking. They were both grown up now and understood each other implicitly. There was no need to say too much.
No matter what happens, life goes on.
Besides, nothing has happened yet.
Because Sunny said that there's a member who is estimated to be leaving the group, but they don't know when yet. Because of this, Ji-seong went online and checked Girls’ Generation's schedule, finding that besides the sub-unit TTS just returning, the other members are relatively free. However, looking at the news, Yoona seems to have received a new TV drama after her successful appearance in "zongli with Me" earlier this year. S previously mentioned they were trying to get her a Chinese costume drama.
Seeing this, even Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but admire in his heart. He was truly worthy of being his idol, the resources were really good, and their fans were so lucky.
It's great news to see the beautiful Yoona senior again on TV dramas.
The itinerary shows that Girls' Generation's latest team schedule was a fan meeting held in Xia Guo Pengcheng on September 30th, and who knows when things about Jung Soo-yeon will come to light.
Given Girls' Generation's immense popularity and recognition across the peninsula and Asia, it was entirely predictable that the aftermath of this event would generate a massive response.
However, as members of EXO, this situation is somewhat related to them, although not very much. It's not entirely unrelated, at least the relationship between Ji-seong and several older sisters (presumably from the same agency) is quite good, and there are some connections with Seohyun as well.
Sigh, if it were like han and purely due to personal reasons, just wanting to leave and run away and sue directly, that would be a little better. Right from wrong would be easier to sort out. But this situation involving interests and internal conflicts is the most worrying thing. I don't know how things got this way.
It's undeniable that they are truly impressive predecessors. Even after leaving the group, their actions are more captivating than those of their juniors.
The next two days were surprisingly quiet. Aside from the continued online criticism and jokes about Lee Byung-hun, there was nothing else stirring. Pool Jung-won quietly filmed on set, and he also went to the television station to do voiceover work for the first two episodes which had already been edited.
"Don't make your voice too soft, Jingyuan, your own voice is very good. It's best to have a little depth to it, but not too much, just a touch will do."
In the studio of the production company, Kim Yeontseok was gesticulating wildly at Ji Seongwon in the recording booth, seemingly trying to convey the sound he wanted with his hands.
Meanwhile, on a large television next to him, the freshly edited sample footage was playing. In order to immerse himself as deeply as possible in the atmosphere and character of the drama, Ji Jingyuan watched the sample footage while simultaneously performing voice-over work.
Although the director was very vague, Ji Jingyuan understood. As the male lead, he had been filming for so long that he had a pretty good understanding of the tone and atmosphere of this play. He could easily understand the director's requirements.
"Let's give it a try."
Nodding, Chi Jingyuan put on his headphones and stood in front of the microphone. Looking at the script in his hand, he took a few seconds to gather himself before beginning to read the first paragraph in a calm voice with a hint of heaviness.
"The road is not walked out, but created in order to walk out."
"You only need to consider what you think should be done, and the rest is beyond your control."
"Great, that's exactly the feeling!" Jin Yuanxi outside heard this and his eyes lit up. He used two thumbs to strongly express his great satisfaction.
Chi Jingyuan smiled and nodded, under the direction of the staff beside him, preparing to officially begin recording.
The entire drama "The Untamed" features a significant amount of narration, appearing at the beginning and end of episodes as well as during key moments. Some are used to showcase the inner thoughts of protagonist Wei Wuxian, while others serve to enhance the atmosphere. Each line has its own purpose.
Chi Jingyuan read through all the voice-over scripts and thought that many of the writers had done a really good job. The sentences were meaningful and philosophical, and they would fit perfectly in the drama.
However, some sentences do feel a bit pretentious and melodramatic. But it's not a big deal.
"A path that cannot be walked out is not a true path. The road is open to everyone, but not everyone can walk that path…"
"The voice is just a little bit louder, and with this tone it's perfect…"
"You say I'm too serious No, because I need to be tempered in society because I'm not serious enough. Because I'm not serious enough... that's why I'm abandoned."
"Just that feeling, one more time..."
“…………”
"One more time..."
It wasn't until around 4 or 5 in the afternoon that the narration work for the front part of the film finally came to an end. After Chi Jingyuan and the director bid farewell to a few others, they got into the company car and returned to the studio.
We have already discussed this, EXO-K will have a performance stage at the K-pop Dream Festival concert in Gyeongju tomorrow. Ji-sung needs to go back and rehearse with several other members beforehand.
Now, at this time, the roads in Seoul are far less smooth than they were earlier this morning. The nanny car was moving slowly on the road, stopping and going, and it took twenty more minutes than expected to drive into the parking lot of s.
With his backpack on, he got out of the car and slammed the door shut. Ji Jingyuan followed Park Jae-hyun, bowing his head, and walked a few steps when he heard a few familiar voices coming from nearby. He glanced in that direction and bumped into Bae Joo-hyuk and a few others who were looking over at him.
They might have just finished filming a video or show, even though they were in casual clothes, they all had delicate and similar makeup on. However, their signature four-color hair ends were gone. A male trainee that Pool Jingyuan has met a few times before was by their side, and his voice could be heard in the laughter they just shared.
"Jingyuan!" Although the manager was present, a few people didn't formally greet each other. Sun Shengwan smiled at him and beckoned him over, then they proactively quickened their pace.
But that male trainee wasn't so relaxed. Seeing Ji Kyeong-won, he hesitated for a moment and quickly ran over to bow and greet him: "Yuan senior, annyeonghaseyo, I'm Lee Taeyong from Rookies."
Whether it was his tone or his movements, he seemed to be a little nervous. It was obvious that he had heard of Chi Jingyuan's reputation.
"Anihaseyo..." Ki Jung-won smiled and nodded lightly. He had met Lee Tae-yong before, during the family concert where the other party had a program. He had seen each other twice backstage, but they hadn't talked much.
Sometimes, she's too lazy to even pay attention to the female trainees, let alone the male ones.
After exchanging greetings, they walked towards the company building together.
Park Ji-hyun and Jeon Hye-young, the two managers, walked ahead, whispering to each other and leading the way. Ji-sung and Sung-wan, along with Gain, walked side by side behind them, laughing and chatting. Jeonghwa trailed behind him, walking quietly with her head down but ears perked up, listening intently. The rest of the group lagged behind.
"Such a coincidence…" Qi Jingyuan's gaze swept over the eyes of the two people beside him, and he said with a smile.
"Hey, we bumped into you right after getting out of the car. What a coincidence! Jingshen, guess what we just did" Sun Shengwan raised an eyebrow at him, teasingly.
Every time I see Son Seung-wan, I feel like she's full of energy and has a bright personality. It's really impressive that she can stay so positive even in Red Velvet's current situation.
Seeing him like this actually made me feel much better. It's really heartwarming.
"Wanna shoot a video"
"How do you know" Sun Sheng opened his mouth wide in exaggerated surprise.
"...Ji Jingyuan didn't explain, and he stubbornly lowered his mouth towards the two people, and behind them, Li Taeyong."
“That’s how it is… haha.” Sun Shengwan also understood, grinning.
Several people walked into the building and reached the elevator entrance. After pressing the button, they waited for the elevator. Jiang Sheqi took the initiative to introduce: "Tai Rong is arranged by the company to help us with this comeback song feat, and he also participated in the v filming. We just came back from the photography studio, so today we completely finished the v."
"Benatural"
"Inside, we also used a one-shot filming technique this time, just like your previous work "Rage," with Jingyuan."
Son Seung-wan's addition to the statement made Chi Kyung-won unable to help but turn his head and glance at her. Listening to her, it seemed like she believed that a one-take V could be comparable to "The Howl".
From last year's "Roar" trend to now, countless idol groups in the music industry have adopted one-shot filming, but very few have actually produced captivating content. The rest have been swept away by the tide and vanished without a trace.
"Are you confident this time"
The elevator door opened and he walked in. Ji Jingyuan blinked and looked at them with bright eyes.
“I’m pretty confident, and what Irene unnie said also makes sense.” Son Seungwan clenched her fists, looking tough and determined. She then glanced at Red Velvet’s Seulgi who had been quietly listening the whole time.
"Well, I think it should be okay. The company teacher specially revised and improved the previous chair dance, and the costumes were also carefully selected. It's still songs from our seniors. We've been practicing until very late every day this period…"
Pei Zhuxuan glanced at him, her eyes avoiding his for a moment, before looking down at the floor and rambling off a string of reasons to justify her viewpoint.
Only when Chi Jingyuan saw her expression did he feel like she was trying to convince herself as much as him with all those words.
Finally, Bae Joo-hyun paused for a moment, pursed her lips and emphasized, "And this time, we really, truly put in a lot of effort and prepared seriously. We can definitely do it."
At this moment, they reached the third floor. As the elevator doors opened, a crowd rushed out. Ji-sung, who was about to say goodbye and head back to EXO's practice room, caught Beomgyu's gaze for two seconds. He saw determination, anticipation, and an undeniable nervousness in the other's eyes.
He glanced at Jiang Shubi and Sun Shengwan, then suddenly laughed and reached out to fist bump them.
"Come on!"
"Well, fighg!"
After greeting Quan Huaiying, Ji Jingyuan said goodbye to her and the others, then pushed open the door and walked straight into EXO's practice room. All the members of Team K were already there waiting for him. After gathering together, they joked around a few times before starting to rehearse for tomorrow's stage.
The K-Pop Dream Festival on the 28th was held at the Gyeongju Sports Complex at 7 PM. SBS TV is in charge of recording the entire event, but it’s not a live broadcast. Instead, they will film and then edit and render the footage afterwards. The expected air date on television should be about a week later.
This kind of K-pop promotion concert, which is held many times every year by major TV stations, was quite fresh when actors like Ji Chang Wook first participated. Now, it's become commonplace and they are veterans of large-scale music programs.
As the last act to appear, EXO-K certainly commanded attention. With no other highly popular senior groups performing, and before Hani's departure, EXO had reigned supreme among the three generations of male idol groups, facing no real competition.
Or perhaps their current rivals are only themselves.
"Oh she wants."
"She's got it."
"Oh she hurts!"
"Soohedoctor grabbed me and told me this."
"touch This is poison, your love is an overdose!"
The influence of Han's departure seems to have gradually been smoothed over by time. The cheers from below rose and fell, loud and high-pitched. When Ji Jingyuan was dancing on stage, you could clearly see that several female fans in the front row were very enthusiastic, their bodies extending halfway out of the barrier, screaming loudly xo's name while vigorously waving the banners in their hands.
The first few rows of people were all holding up their phones and snapping pictures nonstop at Ji Jingyuan on stage. After the selfie craze took off, this kind of scene was quite common.
As EXO finished their performance and struck the ending pose, fireworks exploded on stage, providing a perfect finale to this hard-fought concert.
After that, there were no other arrangements. The six of them had a meal together and then returned to the dormitory. They chatted for a while and then got tired and went to bed.
Ji Jingyuan was half asleep when his phone, which was charging on the bedside table, suddenly vibrated. The sudden buzz woke him up immediately, and the sound of someone turning over in bed beside him indicated that the other two roommates had also been disturbed.
Frowning, he reached out and snatched the phone. His eyes, half-closed against the slightly blinding light from the screen, looked at the time. It was past one in the morning. Then he glanced at the caller ID: "Jung Soo-jung". At once, Ji-yeong knew what it was about.
He sighed inwardly, quietly put on his slippers and walked out to the bathroom. After closing the door, he answered the phone:
"A child should not be trapped by childish things..."
