Chapter 405 Live(1/2)
In fact, from the day the sound source of "X" was released on April 1st, there have been some discordant voices among EXO fans. However, as time has fermented and the popularity has spread, in the past two days,
Finally it became more and more intense.
The reason is that Wu Sehun's only fans found that their idol's recent comebacks of "E" and "X" had very few individual parts for the title songs "Call Me Baby" and "Spring Day", so they specially produced two songs.
Videos of EXO members' personal part-time in the title song were posted to forums, YouTube and fan clubs.
The video clearly shows the statistics of the duration of each member's individual singing section excluding the chorus part of each song.
In "Call Me Baby", the person with the longest individual part time is Jinzhong Dachen, which is 33.8 seconds long, and the second place is Chi Jingyuan, which is 29.7 seconds.
Wu Shixun, who ranked last, only had 8.3 seconds, which was almost a quarter of Chen's time.
And when it comes to "Spring Day", it's even more outrageous. Byun Baekhyun's first part was as long as 48 seconds, and Ji Kyungwon's second was also 45 seconds.
And Wu Shixun is still the last one, only 5 seconds.
In "Spring Day", he rapped only three lines in the whole song. Although this song has a lot of rap parts, almost all of them were divided between Park Chanyeol and Ji Kyungwon.
Kim Jong-in, who was second to last, and Kim Min-seok, who was third to last, were not much better. They both only lasted seven or eight seconds.
On the one hand, he shows his face and sings the whole time, and on the other hand, he can't sing even one or two lines of a song. At first glance, the contrast is extremely strong.
"Your fans have already posted articles criticizing SM, but you are going to demonstrate in front of the company in two days. Why are you still pretending to be cool?"
"Because Yuan is the album producer, songwriter and the most popular member, it's understandable that he has more parts. But if he's not the most popular, why should Chen and Baekhyun?"
"No, because the maknae has filmed some TV series before. He is really well-known and popular among people in their twenties and thirties, especially among office workers." Jin Junmyeon nodded and explained.
After a lot of praise, Yoo Hee-yeol changed his tone: "However, in fact, among people in their thirties and above, there are situations where people may know or have heard of the name, but do not want to know more about it..."
In addition to tearing up the company, Jin Jongdae and Byun Baekhyun, who had the most parts, were also the targets of strange attacks. All of a sudden, the whole inside of Ariel became a mess.
Seeing the two people acting like partners, Chi Jingyuan blinked and asked curiously.
This time, the stage of "Roar" mainly focused on singing. Due to the limitation of the size of the stage and the inability to perform in all directions due to holding a hand microphone, the dancing was somewhat restrained and perfunctory, and the movements were not very standard.
"Yao, okay!"
Who cares about your return?
Performing under this kind of sound effect, if you are strong enough, it is indeed easy to immerse yourself in, and it is very enjoyable.
"ah……"
"OK."
"Oh, actually I also enjoyed watching it, the acting was really good." Liu Xiyeol nodded knowingly and praised, and smiled after hearing Chi Jingyuan's quick "Kang Sang Mida" thanks.
, and then said: "TV dramas are another way, so today we will take this opportunity to use an excellent stage to capture people in their 30s and 40s. We will proceed in order today."
Hearing Chi Jingyuan's words, several members nearby couldn't help laughing softly.
The melody of "Roar" is so catchy and famous.
"Okay, let's now formally analyze EXO and ask a very simple question."
There was another burst of laughter next to him, and the atmosphere that had been quiet and silent just now because of reading the information became lively. After hearing this, Jin Junmyeon put down the script in his hand and asked curiously: "By the way, Jingyuan, "Boy with Luv" has been decided
Should we find someone to do the feat or should we sing it ourselves? When will we start recording?"
"This is the first time that XO has appeared on the stage of our sketchbook... Oh Yigu, it's really hard to invite." Liu Xilie sat next to him, glanced at the people next to him and couldn't help but sigh, and then faced the audience
: “Do you know how many invitations we sent to SM before we invited them?”
During the rehearsal before the recording, he discovered that the stage effect of "Yoo Hee-yeol's Sketchbook" was indeed very different from that of the singing show. Accompanied by the live band, the singing voice appeared very clear and delicate, and it sounded to the ears
You can clearly hear many details, including the sound of breathing and ventilation, which will appear imperfections if it is slightly louder. The quality of the entire sound effect is very outstanding, making the singing voice seem to surround the entire stage and studio, and there is a sense of continuous surround.
A feeling that fills the whole room.
"What does EXO mean?" Yoo Hee Yeol seemed to be playing the role of many viewers from the 30s and 40s who were introduced to XO for the first time, asking with a confused and curious expression.
As soon as this prelude came out, a cheer suddenly broke out that was much louder than before, and some of the audience who had no reaction just now couldn't help but look surprised.
"I remember Brother Seunghwan said last time that the song schedule for "Spring Day" will be shortened this time, and it won't last for a full month like "Call Me Baby."
"EXO planet?"
The most exciting news related to EXO these days, apart from the unusual increase in the number of songs for "Haruhi", is this fan-fighting incident.
"Inside."
Chi Jingyuan shook his head and gave an overview of the last production meeting, and then thought for a while: "The recording should wait until the results come out. We haven't practiced the dance of this song yet... and "
The two song MVs for "O" have not been filmed yet, and there are also concerts. There are really enough things going on recently."
"Sexy."
"Well...it means a name from above."
"Go away and die."
Although these plans may be changed due to certain things, it most likely will not be due to fans' dissatisfaction.
But in terms of effect, it’s actually not very big.
Faced with this unreliable suggestion that was obviously meant to make fun of him, Wu Shixun cursed unceremoniously and showed his middle finger.
This time, "Spring", which is more lyrical, is still the home of the lead singer. Although the part allocation is not as extreme as the previous play without anyone else, the comparison of the first and second songs, which are almost ten times the length, is really dazzling.
"Now it's the performance of XO, an international idol who has broken out of Asia and is widely loved around the world."
"Who doesn't know Yuan is from the royal family?"
"Every time XO releases albums and charts, our fans are not involved. One is 50 seconds and the other is 5 seconds. The company is too biased. I feel really cold when I see this comparison. Chen took so much
Isn’t it a pure waste that the popularity of multiple parts can’t increase and they are always in the lower ranks? Can’t you share it with others? Anyway, if it continues like this, I won’t buy the next single.”
JYP really has no one left.
Several members looked at each other, and then unanimously pointed at Chi Jingyuan, who was sitting next to him in the second row. Chi Jingyuan did not deny it when facing the camera, and smiled implicitly with his eyes narrowed.
Fans, if you don’t abuse them, how can you achieve the effect of solidifying fans and how can you become more closely connected with idols?
Next time, fans will only think this way:
'Look at how miserable Sehun/Xiumin is already. Every time he takes a microphone on stage and says 'EXO' just to sign up for the group name, what should he do if we don't support him?'
The venue staff on both sides quickly brought up nine chairs, and EXO divided them into two rows to prepare. First, the conversation session officially started under the guidance of MC Yoo Hee-yeol.
"Why are you scolding us Chen? This is the company's share and not his own share. Do you think we, Zhong Dawei's fans, are easy to bully? Yuan's part is always second or third, only a little less than the first one every time.
He is also the album producer of the group and has the right to say in the allocation of parts. Wu Shixun’s five seconds may be all divided by him, why don’t you scold him?”
"three times?"
In fact, members like Oh Se-hun and Kim Min-seok have always had very few parts. Fans have actually been dissatisfied for a long time, and this time they really couldn't help but burst out.
After joking for a while, Park Jinying remembered something serious and happened to bump into Chi Jingyuan, so he took the initiative to mention it. When he saw the other party nodded to show that he understood, he didn't say much. He squeezed out a smile and chatted with the other members.
After that, they said goodbye to each other, and EXO went to communicate with MC Yoo Hee Yeol for a few words in advance, and then returned to the lounge to wait for the recording to start.
"Thank you for taking our Yuan away without asking. Don't involve us by tearing the parts apart yourself. Yuan fans are already very satisfied with the current situation. It's too late to help Oppa with rankings and clicks."
"After seeing this question, I thought about it carefully."
"In the peninsula music market, it has sold one million copies again after 11 years."
"Ah……"
"Yoo Hee-yeol's Sketchbook" is a music talk show. In each episode, several groups of guests will be invited to the site to participate in chat interactions and live performances, allowing them to resonate with the audience who participated in the recording for the first time.
Regarding the production of the song, among the members, Ji Kyung-won is currently involved as a producer. The other members have only heard some news occasionally and are not aware of the latest progress.
Therefore, the atmosphere within the EXO team these days is not particularly good. There are no conflicts, but it does seem a bit weird.
"Maybe there are more people than you think. It's really hard to invite..." Yoo Hee-yeol didn't say it clearly. He waved and walked over with a smile: "Now EXO is really the trend. It has surpassed the Korean Wave. It is really in the
It’s very popular throughout Asia…”
"Okay, the first guests of today's performance...are the friends I introduced for the first time in the sketchbook."
"'Misheng'!"
At the beginning, the audience below actually started to sing along, one by one and each other, making the studio, which had seemed a bit quiet before, look like a concert venue.
"well……"
Moreover, SM, which has been in the music industry for many years, understands these fans best. Although it seems that they are very resentful and threaten the company with no money or support, etc. On the surface, they seem to be very determined and will fight to the end. In fact,
It's all lip service. As long as the next title song adds a little more weight to a few members, and then next time they release some calendars, peripherals, and even hold book signings and concerts, they will definitely hate iron.
Bu Chenggang scolded the company for finally being a good person. At the same time, each one was more active than the other, and he was spending money faster than anyone else.
They had seen through it long ago.
"Yes, the album will be released on the 12th."
"Nei is named after the EXO planet that exists outside the solar system. It is a new star from an unknown world that has never been heard of on earth..."
"After all that, aren't you still bullying the weak and fearing the strong?"
After awkwardly and shyly showing off his super powers and chatting about some other topics, the chat session came to an end.
To be continued...
