Chapter Forty-Three: Eu-Reu-Reong

themselves.But since late August, students have gradually asked about it less.It's popular now to, when meeting someone for the first time, directly ask "Who is your bias in EXO".…………"How's today goin...The broadcast of episode 18 a few days ago, with EXO's appearance, certainly sparked a lot of discussion.

Especially the part where Chik Kyung-won and Wu Shi-hun ran to the Apk standby room to send a message, the reactions of several Apk members when they saw them made countless fans watch it over and over again.

Many people commented that it was "very realistic" and "If Yuan and Sehun appeared in front of me, I wouldn't be able to say a word in surprise."

However, it later caused some controversy because Sun Na-eun's conflicted and fervent gaze when she saw Ji-seong was quite obvious. The production crew didn't edit it out at all, instead giving her a close-up shot. After airing, it sparked some debate.

Some people suspect that Son Na-eun might be secretly in love with Yuan, maybe she even confessed to him before, or they were dating. Anyway, there's definitely something going on between them.

Seeing some online comments about Chi Jingyuan, he couldn't help but sigh. Actually, many people guessed correctly, the audience's eyes are really sharp. It's a pity that it can't be confirmed.

Before, the couple bracelets they wore were very ordinary and couldn't be seen as a couple style on camera. There are many idols who wear this kind of ordinary bracelet, including several members of EXO who have worn it on stage.

This speculation also sparked a fight between fans of the two groups, of course, Yuan's fans had the upper hand.

But after all, it was just a glance, a mere fleeting impression. Without any follow-up, it gradually faded away.

As the release date of the August re-album approaches, ** releases some news and materials every few days, keeping them in a highly watched position.

Ji Jingyuan also heard that the ** publicity department even hired people online to post negative comments about EXO, deliberately provoking fans' backlash to maintain the group's popularity.

Whether it's because of company manipulation or the fact that 《Wolf》 really led to a decline in public image, anyway, lately there have been a lot of news stories about EXO's comeback.

It's finally here, the 25th! Today is the day EXO's repackaged album lead single "Growl" publicly released its music video teaser. The atmosphere has reached fever pitch!

Even before its official release, many forums have threads dedicated to finding groups to play it.

"EXO is coming to roar, make sure your chains are tight!"

"Oh my god, can't you give me a normal song What is 'ROAR' even about The name sounds so weird, it's like those awful songs like 'Wolf,' the second you hear the title you don't even want to click on it."

"Aren't you guys sick What did we XO do to provoke you Is there something wrong with the song title "Roar" A bunch of XXs are brainlessly blacking us out every day, driving themselves insane. EXOFightg! "Roar" Fightg, YuanFightg!"

"Help, EXO fans from upstairs have snuck in! It's a bit chaotic with so many people, let's all listen to our oppas perform "Growl" together kkk."

"kkkkkkk…"

The webpage refreshed, the announcement is out, go check it out!

After the last sentence, the forum immediately fell silent. The chat that was constantly rolling came to a standstill as everyone went to check out **'s newly released "Roar" teaser video on their website.

Actually, whether it's for the food or the black fans who are criticizing, after so long of brewing, I'm quite interested in this song "Roar."

The meal is to support one's idol and give a little support to Ji Jingyuan, who wrote, composed, arranged, and choreographed the title song himself.

Although fans have been online arguing with haters to defend EXO, many fans are actually quite anxious. They don't know how good the quality of this song is, and sometimes they feel insecure when defending their idols.

Needless to say about the black fans, they just want to see how bad this song is, whether it's as bad as they thought. If it's really as bad as they predicted, these black fans will be even happier and more proud to criticize people.

The trailer for 《咆哮》 is only 27 seconds long, using a snippet of the chorus as background music and piecing together close-up shots of the MV members from different versions.

The main purpose is to let the audience take a look at EXO's new comeback styling and listen to the melody of the chorus.

After **'s public release, many people refreshed and clicked in directly. A wave of passionate background music and the roaring chorus sounded:

"The shadow of darkness awakened within me."

Looking into your eyes, sparks flew.

"I Eu-Reu-ReongEu-Reu-ReongEu-Reu-Reong you."

"I Eu-Reu-ReongEu-Reu-ReongEu-Reu-Reong you."

With a stunning and surprising chorus, the members' brand new looks flash by rapidly in the video. After a sequence of group dance shots, a full-group photo of all 12 members appears at the end, with a large "EXO, GROWL" logo appearing above it. The short 27-second teaser ends.

Although the preview is short, it basically shows the essence of the song, namely the chorus, in its entirety.

“This...”

After reading it, everyone in front of the computer, including fans and haters, was stunned.

This is so different from what I imagined before, it's not like 《Wolf》 at all, the kind of strange, repetitive dance music that you can't help but click away from.

The catchy rhythm and earworm melody in this short trailer are like a fleeting glimpse, unforgettable.

I felt addicted after just one listen, ‘Eu-Reu-ReongEu-Reu-ReongEu-Reu-Reong you’ kept echoing in my mind, and I couldn't help but sing along.

And just watching it once really wasn't enough... Most people directly dragged the video progress bar back to the beginning, turned up the volume, and watched it again with their eyes wide open.

A few minutes later, the forum started scrolling frantically, with posts flying by one after another.

"It's blown up! It's blown up! It's blown up!"

"It's amazing, this styling is so cool, and the chorus melody, I'm hooked, on repeat."

"Major Plot Twist! EXO's Big Success!"

"I Eu-Reu-ReongEu-Reu-ReongEu-Reu-Reong you!!"

"Well, it turns out that the song title "Roar" means this... I wasn't optimistic about this song before, but after watching the preview, I think EXO is definitely going to be a hit this time. The chorus is really amazing."

Finally, a post was pushed to the top position. The title was quite eye-catching:

"Where is the person who was supposed to put on the leash"

Firstly published on the Traditional Chinese Novel Networke spot, even Ji Jingyuan felt a bit helpless.Actually, both EXO and BIGBANG don't really prioritize music shows anymore. For example, BIGBANG, despite their long debut history and seniority, only part...
