Chapter Forty-Eight: Entering the Group Shooting

now why there wasn't a group stage performance, maybe there was a communication issue with the company.The personalities of artists from the same company are naturally quite different.From the moment...At the end of the corridor where the K-pop group entered the stage, a few members from K-team chatted with two from APK. Hong Yu Kyung didn't speak much and seemed a little shy. Meanwhile, Jung Eun Ji was very outgoing and seemed quite sociable. She laughed non-stop during the conversation, her eyes never closing as she quickly warmed up to them.

Even though Ji-seong, who was standing at the back of the line leaning against the wall and tilting his head to look at the stage, always felt like the two Apink members would occasionally glance at him.

Just watch if you want to, he's used to it.

The performance stage was short, only a little over a minute long. Soon, the other members of Apk finished their rehearsal and lined up to come down.

Seeing this, EXO-K also perked up. Kim Junmyeon and Jung Eunji exchanged a "fight!" with each other before leading the members towards the stage.

Members of each pair lined up and passed each other, bowing respectfully without much conversation.

When Wu Xiaorong, the second in line, saw EXO-K, her eyes widened suddenly and her gaze went directly to Ji Kyeongwon at the end of the line. At the same time, she lightly patted Sun Naeun behind her with her right hand.

Members of the other APKs also discovered Ji-young, and when they bowed, they couldn't help but glance at him from the corner of their eyes.

After the two teams passed each other, Chi Jingyuan, who was walking at the end, always felt that someone was watching him from behind.

This discomfort caused him to turn his head back and look with a hint of suspicion.

Only to see that several members of the Apk gang all acted as if nothing had happened and walked towards the backstage.

Without much thought, he quickly walked a few steps and stood in his position. The music of 《MAMA》 started up, and they began to rehearse.

Rehearsals don't require microphones. The main focus is on familiarizing yourself with your stage positions, dance movements, and pre-determined activities for after you make your official entrance.

Even during rehearsals for music shows, you don't have to wear stage outfits. Makeup isn't usually required either. You can just come in your casual clothes directly.

However, this time it was a dream concert, which was somewhat different from the usual ones.

……

I know why the PD of the production team said that.

Backstage, the seven members of Apk walked toward the resting room. Sun Naeun, walking in the middle, recalled the encounter with Team K just now and said with some approval,

"Oh! Enough is enough."

"He's really handsome and has a good temperament, but it's not that much of a difference, either."

Jung Eunji frowned, a slight hint of agreement in her heart. But to say it out loud would be too embarrassing.

She saw that Park Choong-rong in front of her gently nodded her head and asked for help, "What do you think, unnie"

"Uh..." Park Chorong was suddenly caught off guard, she turned her head and bit her lip, looking innocent as she clenched her fists and gestured to Jung Eunji.

"Fightg!"

…………

Time flies, and as the audience fills the venue, the Dream Concert officially begins.

This time's MC is three popular idols, 2PM's Taecyeon, Kara's Han Seung Yeon, and ZE:A's Park Shin Woo.

EXO-K's stage was in the first half, and APINK's performance was after MAMAMOO's stage.

The cheers after they went on stage were really loud, and the audience who came to see them were all very supportive. Every group's fan chants were very intense.

Chi Jingyuan saw the fan group of his team.

On the third-floor balcony facing the stage, all the banners read 'EXO-K', 'Girls' Generation', '**Town', and 'TVXQ'. Several signs lined up, with all ** Entertainment fans sitting here in an organized manner.

It feels great to have the support, even if our numbers are smaller compared to the fan groups of the seniors next door.

After the performance of 《MAMA》, several people quickly went down to change out of their stage outfits. Everyone put on a suit, three people wore bow ties, and three tied their ties, then they waited backstage at the stage area.

Honestly, Ji-won thinks this suit looks better than their outfits from the "MAMA" performances by several levels.

After the end of the APK's ver stage, several people walked onto the stage at the direction of the staff. After standing in their designated positions in the center, the music for "Sorry, Sorry" started to play.

The response and support on this stage were much more enthusiastic than at the previous 《MAMA》. This explosive ver stage comes with built-in traffic and a fanbase.

After the curtain call, they were done for the day. Backstage, they just waited until the very end when all the artists came together for one final stage performance.

After all the programs have ended, all the participating groups will take the stage together to sing the closing theme song "Butterfly".

This song is considered a classic ending song for Dream Concert.

Several members who had never sung this song before, specifically memorized the lyrics and learned the singing method. Pool Kyung-won is also one of them.

When the performance ended and everyone went onstage to sing together, he realized he had done useless work.

The popular senior group made their appearance first, taking over the front row immediately. When EXO-K went onstage, the front few rows were already packed with people, leaving no space at all.

They could only stand two or three rows behind, completely blocked by the wall of people in front, just like at a singing competition awards ceremony.

And the chorus was even funnier, they called it a chorus, but the people behind them didn't even have microphones. They couldn't do anything except clap.

As the crowd roared with heartfelt applause and dazzling fireworks lit up the night sky, the concert came to a grand finale.

…………

"Card!"

"Good, take a break," director Shin Won-ho called out.

He was wearing shorts and a short-sleeved shirt, sneakers on his feet, a director's hat, and black-rimmed glasses perched on his round face, a satisfied smile on his lips.

As soon as he gave the order, the crew, who had been silent during filming, erupted in chatter, talking in small groups.

Shen Yuanhao gave Chi Jingyuan a thumbs-up, his eyes full of obvious admiration.

After bowing to the several lead creators and senior actors, Ji Jingyuan walked a few steps to his seat. He borrowed the handheld fan offered by Park In-hwan and fanned himself vigorously while panting heavily.

It's really hot.

It's already the end of June, almost a month has passed since the Dream concert.

A half month ago, the production team of "Reply 1997" was already assembled. They first held a script reading session to get acquainted with the main cast of this TV drama.

Chi Jingyuan also joined the cast and began filming at the same time.
