Chapter Thirteen: The Grand Stage

r female idol are also pretty high.Among XO, the most popular among female idols is naturally Park Ji-young, but unless you are quite familiar with him, he can be somewhat difficult to approach and ra...One characteristic of this variety show, the Idol Sports Meet, is that it has a large number of participants. When it is finally edited, the runtime is only two to three hours, and the camera time is simply not enough to go around. Many idols who participated do not appear on camera for even a second from beginning to end.

Like this Spring Festival special, it's estimated that after editing, it will only be two and a half hours long, but there are over 150 participating artists. It's a case of too many people for too few resources.

After working tirelessly from morning till night to record for a day, the result was that not even a single shot was used. This situation is something that every participating artist naturally wants to avoid.

So before coming here, including ** in all the companies, everyone should have made it clear that artists need to proactively look for opportunities to be on camera and increase their exposure.

Besides signing up for the competition yourself, the best opportunity is when celebrities participate in a competition. They usually allow members of their group or team to cheer for them from the sidelines.

If you perform very well and win gold medals all the way, your chances of being featured in the media will naturally increase.

From the start of the recording until now, apart from a two-second close-up given to Li Huiri and Wu Shixun for cheering earlier, basically no other EXO members have had any screen time. Only Ji Kyeongwon gets some occasional camera focus.

However, his performance in variety shows has always been mediocre, and the shots given to him are relatively bland. I guess he'll be edited out later.

After the men's 70-meter race, the program team came up with a spontaneous idea during the break and added another event: men's hurdles. They immediately started selecting participants on the spot.

That just came to me out of the blue.

For the camera, EXO also had two people sign up, and in the end Luhan was chosen. He basically didn't have much training before starting to run.

The moves were pretty good, he really jumped high like a deer when he was running hurdles…he just didn't make it to the finals.

Chi Jingyuan found that the athleticism of their EXO members seemed average, and none of them had stood out since the beginning.

Next, everyone left the center area of the stadium and sat down around the running track. Staff started moving equipment and set up a archery range in the center.

The archery event is one of the most popular and highly-watched events in the idol athletic meet. Every season, it generates a lot of discussion.

The archery competition at the odd-year games is a team event. From the preliminary round to the final, each participating team has three people, with each person shooting three arrows. Finally, one person shoots an extra arrow, totaling ten arrows. The team with the highest total score wins.

After the field was set up, the women's archery recording began.

After the idols moved positions, due to the venue space, they sat directly on the ground and were very crowded. Park Ji-won sat in the middle of the crowd, with EXO members in front of him, and Girl's Day's Kim Ah-young on his left.

The distance was very close, and I could clearly smell the perfume and sweat on other people.

Just now, when Ji Jingyuan was leaning his head to look at the recording in front of him, Jin YARong turned her head, and her hair directly swept onto his face. As she smiled and apologized repeatedly, the light fragrance of shampoo also came rushing over.

Moreover, it is no longer arranged in order from A to J, and the team order is also shuffled. At this time, Team A is no longer next to Team B as before.

On the right side and front of Ji Jingyuan is F team's

ra bow. On the right side and back is G team's Afterschool and HellowVen.

He didn't know how he found the seat, but after sitting down randomly, he felt like EXO was surrounded by a group of female idols.

From the moment he sat down, he felt eyes constantly scanning him from the side, lingering for a second or two before moving away, then returning after a while.

Occasionally, when Yuan turned his head to look at the pool, the other person didn't seem embarrassed at all. They met his gaze directly and waved hello.

In this situation, his interest in the archery competition he was filming had decreased considerably.

Although the variety show still needs to be filmed, and there are occasionally cameras pointing at them during rehearsals. He and the members can only try their best to look ahead at the archery competition in front of them.

The most impressive archer was Kara. Nicole, the first to take the field, had no idea how to use a compound bow and didn't even know where to put the arrow. After researching for a while, the coach came over to guide her for half a day before she finally managed to learn how to draw the bow.

Hoh Lala's posture and expression were particularly serious and focused when she was drawing her bow, like a true professional. As a result, after aiming for a long time, she shot directly off target and got zero points. Ji Jingyuan couldn't help but laugh out loud at the sight.

The most entertaining part is Kara changing people three times, missing the target for five consecutive rounds and getting zero points, she's become a complete joke.

I heard they had a concert at the Taipei Arena a few days ago. They just got back from the peninsula not long ago, so they didn't have much time to practice. That makes sense now.

The final match was between 4ute and sistar, and sistar won the gold medal.

After the women's archery competition, it was the men's turn. When editing, they might cut away to avoid showing consecutive footage of the same event, as this can tire out viewers. However, during filming, the events are recorded consecutively because it wouldn't be practical to remove the target and reset the field between rounds.

It's here.

Jin Jun-myeon patted his hands and said something.

"Fightg!" The remaining three members, along with the girlsday sitting together, laughed and cheered them on.

Ji Jingyuan and Park Chan-ryeol also stood up with him in the crowd, following Kim Jun-myeon toward the outside.

This time, the EXO archery team competing are just the three of them. It goes without saying that it's Park Kyung-won, and as for Kim Junmyeon and Park Chan-yeol, they apparently had a surprise training session yesterday. I wonder how it went.

When EXO made their entrance, the fans on stage immediately began to cheer loudly. However, at this time, only their own fans were more enthusiastic, and their voices seemed a bit empty. Fans of other groups had already begun to focus on their own groups.

After the referee briefly introduced the rules, the men's archery competition officially began filming. Ji-yeong, Chik and the other three sat on the athlete bench closest to the field, watching their opponents B.A.P start shooting arrows.

On alternating sides, Ji Cheong-won was the last to appear from both teams. Before him, Kim Jun-myeon and Park Chan-wook scored five and six points respectively, which can be considered a normal score.

When Chi Jingyuan appeared, the idols who were watching from the sidelines suddenly perked up. Some female idols who had been chatting and daydreaming before suddenly became interested in the competition.

Under the gaze of numerous artists, Ji Jingyuan stood in the ready position, placing an arrow on his compound bow and looking at the target ahead with a glance.

A VJ also came to his side, carrying a camera and started filming him intensely.

Just as Chi Jingyuan drew back his bow, the stadium suddenly erupted in a cacophony of noise. Gasps from the audience rippled through the stands, originating from each fan base before converging into a wave of cheers that ignited the atmosphere of the entire arena.

His close-up appeared on the big screen in the center of the stadium.
