Chapter Seventeen It's Pretty Obvious

th the addition of M! Countdown and three major broadcasting stations' music programs, EXO managed to snag four wins in total this week. There’s a feeling that they are about to become a top group.How..."Have you heard that you guys are making a comeback"

In the lounge, Kim Yeong-ro blinked her eyes and stared at Jiyeong.

"Inside, it would be around May."

"Fighting! We're also coming back next month, remember to cheer us on!"

After spending a day together, Kim Yeong-rang seemed to have already gotten close to Ji Kyoung-won. She casually smiled and said...

"Okay, of course." Chi Jingyuan gave a thumbs-up.

Today he got to know the girl group Girls' Day. Although it was a small and unpopular group, they seemed unaware of their lack of popularity and were very active instead. As long as they could get on camera, they would rush over for a moment, always striving for any chance to be seen.

Various fan clubs are also very enthusiastic, as long as their own members or EXO members participate in the project, they will definitely cheer loudly.

Although they weren't very popular, the girls' efforts made Chi Jingyuan develop a little bit of fondness for them.

Of course, the main reason could be that there are two members in Girls' Day who are more in line with his aesthetic...

After that, they didn't chat anymore. After changing back into their original clothes, the members got back into the van and waited for their manager.

Lee Seong-hwan should be going to communicate with the program team about some things. In this recording, Ji Kyeong-won can be said to have shined brightly. Experienced PDs can see that he is the highlight of this episode, and the program team may need ** to do something to cooperate with the promotion.

Sitting in the nanny van, the members couldn't help but discuss today's program recording.

Although they woke up very early and didn't get enough rest, and the variety show recording was also tiring, all the members now look energetic. It's estimated that they would still be willing to come next time.

In this kind of closed setting, recording a day together, the handsome men and beautiful women are also in close physical contact, and they constantly show their good side in sports, radiating strong charm, it is easy to make people feel good about the opposite sex.

It's no wonder some seniors smile mysteriously when they talk about the idol operation team variety show. Some people even call this program "publicly funded offline dating."

Woo Shi-hun and Park Chan-lyeol might have reaped a significant reward this time. Ji Kyeong-won learned from their recent conversation that the two of them each obtained at least five contact information for female idols.

Jin Jun-mian, Luhan, Tao and a few others also made some new connections.

It's not that exchanging contact information means a relationship is formed. What gets them excited is that besides expanding their network, they get to connect with attractive seniors. This is also a reflection of their own charm and popularity.

Who doesn't like pretty idol young ladies

"Sehun, who do you think is the prettiest in Girls' Day"

Park Chan-wook leaned against the back of the seat and started talking about the female idol group they were assigned to today.

"Yura's the best, I think she has the best body."

"Her Didn't you see today Yura is clearly very interested in Jingyuan, she always tries to chat him up whenever she has the chance. With Yura like this, I think you have no chance."

Park Chan-wook glanced at Ji Kyeong-won and muttered something.

"You said you wanted to know who was handsome, right I'm not trying to chat them up or anything. And I'm not blind, she was showing it and Jun Mian probably saw it too."

"Well... it's a bit obvious." Kim Jun-myeon touched his chin, giving his evaluation.

What about yura besides

"Hyeri-ah, I think she has a really good personality. Has Chanyeol got any news about her"

"Hyeri... I remember hearing from a relative that Hyeri was dating a senior figure in the music industry a while back, but I don't know if they broke up."

"Sigh, the two prettiest ones are... let's talk about other groups instead..."

………………

After the conclusion of the Idol Athletic Championship, EXO returned to the intense practice schedule the next day.

It is February now, and they expect to return at the end of May. There are more than three months left for preparation, so it seems like there is plenty of time.

But actually, time is quite tight this time. The planning for this comeback is very elaborate. Apart from having several versions of both the song and the dance, even the main title song's MV will be filmed in more than one version.

>Besides the original MV, there was a plan to shoot a story version MV that lasted for more than ten minutes.

Besides newspapers, postcards, and other things, my practice time is already very limited.

Members have been practicing very hard lately, training until late at night and exhausting themselves before finishing. A few members have injured their feet or legs, but they just treated them simply and rested for a while before continuing to practice.

The pressure of returning and the tense atmosphere made many people's moods not very good, and some bumps and disagreements occurred.

Last night, Park Chan-yeol and Byun Baek-hyun got into a huge fight. If it weren't for the other members pulling them apart, things could have gotten physical.

The cause was just a little joke, but because of the recent heightened atmosphere, emotions were tense and it flared up quickly.

However, this anger came and went quickly. After a night's sleep, the next day the two looked like they had no more fire in their eyes. Although they didn't speak, they greeted each other.

"Jingyuan, come out for a bit."

Lee Seung-hwan walked into the practice room and called out to Ji Kyungsoo, who was about to start practicing.

"The company has discussed it and decided to formally accept JYP's cooperation plan. It should be a temporary group formed by you and Tzuyu, but the specific details are still under discussion."

"There will be a meeting at JYP tomorrow that you need to attend. The company values your opinion on some matters, so please bring your assistant and go with the company representatives."

Lee Seung Hwan quickly said a few words, the JYP collaboration invitation mentioned before had results.

"Cheng Huan Ge, we've been so busy preparing for our comeback lately that we barely have time to practice. How could the company even agree to this kind of project"

Chi Jingyuan asked in a doubtful tone.

"It's said that the other party was really sincere in this collaboration, making some concessions in certain areas. Plus, the company feels that your pairing with Tzuyu would be very topical. It would be beneficial for both your personal image and EXO's overall popularity."

Lee Seung Hwan seemed to have specifically been asked about this and explained it very well: "Moreover, this is just the initial communication stage, and the project won't be implemented in the short term. I understand EXO's situation, they definitely wouldn't have free time before their comeback, and I heard that Soo-ji also has a pretty tight schedule recently."

"Cooperation between artists from two different companies involves a lot of discussion regarding the distribution of their respective interests, which naturally takes a long time."

"The general framework is basically set now, but there are still many specific details to be worked out. For example, whether it's a collaborative song or stage performance, whether a temporary group will be formed to release a digital single or an album, what style the song will be, and which company will be responsible for songwriting all need further discussion."

"Both the company and JYP side highly value your opinion, so you'll need to attend some meetings."

"Okay, I understand. Brother Chanhua, I'll go tomorrow."

Qi Jingyuan nodded and agreed.

Before the MAMA stage rehearsal, Park Bo-gum casually mentioned a few things. Ji Chang-wook thought he was just talking off the cuff, but months later, it actually came true.

Chi Jingyuan was a little puzzled. Did this senior really have so much faith in him
