Chapter 73 What I Said Wasn't
Two consecutive messages came one after another."Ani, it's because anger is obvious that I said so." Ji Jingyuan replied first, then sent a few combinations of emojis.Emojis are just something he does..."Oh, I didn't get back until after four o'clock... It was really tiring. As an artist, I understand that we can only sleep a few hours every day, and it's really hard to wake up the next day. I have to force myself to perk up."
Jin Shenying empathized and sighed.
"Inside, Se Hoon said that I also have an impression, I was also a dorm mate, there were a few times at night when I went to the bathroom and happened to meet Yuan come back, looking at it just made me feel very hard."
Do Kyung-Soo also nodded in agreement and added, "Besides, Yuan had just started university at that time and needed to attend classes. After returning home, he still had to review his textbooks. On top of that, there was preparing for the album, practicing dance and choreography. It's truly amazing how he managed to persevere through it all."
"What Has Yuanxi already been accepted into university"
Kim Shin-young seemed to hear this news for the first time, and she was very surprised. "
"He was already admitted last year, but he took a year off school because of his debut. This year, he officially enrolled."
Do Kyung-Soo is quite knowledgeable and speaks eloquently to the camera.
"Wow! I've never heard of this before. I bet a lot of our XO fans don't know either... By the way, which university did yuan go to"
"It is Yanchi University."
"Jia Is it Yenching University"
Kim Shin-young sounded a bit incredulous, repeating the question.
"Inside, that's right."
"Oh wow, Yansei University! Ahhhh! Not only is he already handsome, but he also got into our prestigious university. It's really enviable, EXO fans are so lucky."
Kim Shin-young shouted excitedly, exaggeratingly praising Ji Chang-wook.
However, her reaction is understandable. The peninsula places great importance on academic qualifications. People from prestigious schools are naturally surrounded by a halo effect, especially in the idol industry where academic qualifications are generally low. Most idols do not take the college entrance exam after high school and attend art schools. Some even drop out of junior high.
It is quite remarkable that Chi Jingyuan was able to get into Yonsei University, a prestigious university known as one of the "SKY" schools in the minds of the general public.
"I know the creator of the song 《Roaring》 is Yuan, but did he also choreograph it I've watched the MV and stage performance so many times, the dance is really cool."
After expressing her astonishment, Kim Shin-young looked at him with a questioning expression.
"Inside, the choreography was also done by Yuan. He worked with several dance teachers from the company to complete it. Mainly, he... In fact, in terms of the production of the song , many things were left to him by the company, including the style concept of our song, and the suits and school uniforms in the MV were all Yuan's ideas."
Luhan nodded in affirmation, his expression filled with admiration, and gave a thumbs up.
"He also suggested the idea for a one-shot camera angle for the MV, and the overall camera design as well."
"I remember he even wrote a suggestion report for the company during our practice break, I was sitting next to him at the time, watching him write word by word. I even asked him a few questions back then."
We will be releasing all the behind-the-scenes footage of our album "Roar," including production meetings, rehearsals, MV shooting footage, and practice room version MVs on September 5th. Fans who are interested can view it on **'s official website.
Lastly, Kim Jun-myeon made a promotion, which was also one of the purposes of this trip.
The company's publicity department conducted a thorough investigation, and now many EXO fans are just becoming fans this month because of "Growl," so they must be very interested in their idols' private lives.
After the behind-the-scenes footage of "Roar" is released, it will definitely add fuel to the already booming popularity of XO. Most importantly, it can have a very good effect on retaining fans.
Keeping current fans stable and converting them into die-hard supporters is what ** and EXO want to achieve most right now.
"Practice Room MV"
MC asked curiously.
"
Inside, the video is of the members dancing in the practice room. They are wearing their own casual clothes and have no makeup on. There's no camera editing, making it a very natural video that mainly showcases the dance charm of 《咆哮》and the members’ private selves.
"
Jin Jun-myeon introduced.
The term "practice room version MV" is still quite novel, as many people haven't heard of it. This is because most groups on the peninsula are still focused on catchy main tracks with flashy and stylish MVs.
This was also brought up by Chi Jingyuan at the time, and after the company adopted it, the members found a time to film it in the practice room.
Members have all seen it, and while it seems a bit rough and simple compared to the official MV, the practice room version has its own unique charm.
"Is there anything interesting you can reveal about the behind-the-scenes footage in advance"
Jin Shin-young came up with a timely remark.
"Well... the thing that interests me most is probably Yuan."
After thinking for a moment, Jin Junmian's face broke into a smile.
"His private style is very... unique. When filming the practice room version of the MV, he was even asked by his manager to change his clothes because they said his outfit didn't quite match the style of "Roar"... haha."
"Hahaha..."
“I remember…”
As soon as Kim Jun-myeon said that, all the members burst into laughter. A few of them, feeling a little bolder, even patted the table and wiggled around on it.
The camera clearly captured the members' reactions.
After laughing, they chatted for a while longer. This segment of promotion was enough, and then under MC's guidance, they moved on to other topics.
…………
"CUT."
“Not bad, the effect this time is very good, Xihe's surprised expression is very in place, Jingyuan xi is also great, he looks really handsome in front of the camera.”
Director Kang Shin-hyuk gave a thumbs up, expressing his satisfaction with the two lead actors' smooth performance of the kissing scene.
Just after sharing a kiss, Ji-seong and Shin-hye looked at each other and smiled. There was no shyness or awkwardness between them; their eye contact felt natural and even contained a hint of enjoyment.
This kissing scene was not in the original script. It was added by Kim Eun-sook when she was revising the script. Jin Tan and Chae Sang-eun ran into each other accidentally when they were about to go back to Korea from LA.
The main purpose is still to elevate the feelings and use handsome men and beautiful women to attract viewers.
As an actress, Park Shin-hye is more professional at kissing scenes than Jung Eun-ji.
And beneath her usual enthusiasm and sociability, she had become quite familiar with Ji Jingyuan. Occasionally, when they spent time together privately, the two would even consciously slip into their roles, blurring the social safety distance, appearing much closer than ordinary friends.
There's a hint of on-set couple vibes, they occasionally get a little flirty, but nothing crosses the line.
After this section was finished, it was a break time for the two. They returned to their respective positions. Ji Jingyuan took the water handed over by his assistant and drank two sips, comfortably letting out a sigh.
"Doesn't it feel good"
A female voice came from beside him, and Ji Jingyuan didn't need to look to know it was Jung Soo-jung.
This peer from the same generation was initially quiet when they first met, just smiling shyly upon seeing each other.
But after getting to know each other a few times, they gradually became more familiar. After that, the senior's true personality gradually emerged...
Jeon So Min didn't have much of a role in LA, she mainly came to experience the atmosphere and learn from the group. Whenever she had time off, she would actively approach Ji Chang Wook to talk.
"Inside, Xin Hui Nuna is so beautiful, and it feels pretty good to film a kiss scene with her."
Ji Jingyuan put down his drink, glanced at Zheng Xiujing, and without paying any attention to the sarcasm or other emotions in her tone, said matter-of-factly.
Although you're not very old, you seem to be a skilled kisser.
Zheng Xiu-jing curled her lips and retorted.
"The more times you do it, the more skilled you become. What's so strange about that"
Chi Jingyuan glanced at her, feeling that this question was quite stupid.
"Oh, come on. I'm not talking about being skilled during filming."
"Well, that's a coincidence. I wasn't saying anything else either."
