Chapter 110 Thank you all
gate.Those who have worked in ** for a long time will sigh, as if they've returned to the peak of TVXQ's era. Back then, the company entrance was like this too, it feels familiar.All of these fans ar...Besides the members all letting out sighs of relief and smiling with joy, the fans who had been watching nervously for their idol also cheered.
While other artists who received the award seemed to be in low spirits, forcing smiles for the camera.
Actually, including fans and other artists, everyone knows that EXO has the highest chance of winning the Best Song Award this year among all the nominees.
The first half of the year was hard to say, but in the second half, especially these past few months, the entire Korean music scene belonged to “Roar.” “Roar” swept through all the universities and streets of Korea like an unstoppable wave, propelling EXO from just another boy band to almost reaching the top within a very short time.
Apart from "BarBarBar", no other idol song can compare in terms of popularity and recognition.
Before it was actually announced, people had a bit of wishful thinking. Even Crayon Pop, who are also participating in MMA, seemed a little disappointed.
After the candidate's VCR had finished playing, Ren Shun'er didn't waste any time or build suspense. She directly announced:
"2013 Melon Music Award Best Song of the Year..."
"Oh my gosh, I'm so nervous... I don't know why my dy is so insightful today, choosing such the right clothes."
When she was finished, she spread her hands open, revealing the 'XOXO' letters on her shirt in the middle, and screams rose up around her, growing louder and louder.
As the atmosphere in the venue began to heat up, Ren Shun'er finally said: "Please everyone shout out the words on my clothes together after 1, 2, 3..."
"1…"
"2……"
"3…"
"EXO!!"
All eyes in the audience erupted into a deafening roar at once, the name 'EXO' echoing throughout the entire gymnastics arena, reverberating in everyone's ears. It merged with the screams and shouts that followed, like the most awe-inspiring and moving melody of time.
"wuh~~~"
At this time, the big screen camera switched to the artist's seating area. Everyone stood up, including BEAST, Crayon Pop, BTS, Ailee, and so on. They smiled and clapped nonstop while turning their bodies towards EXO’s direction, all looking extremely happy for them.
EXO members sitting in the back rows of the artist seats showed their surprise smiles at the right time, stood up and bowed repeatedly to their seniors who were congratulating them, clapped their hands and slowly moved outward while also thanking the fans cheering loudly from behind.
The immense sense of joy and excitement within also caused the members to lose control of their emotions, directly abandoning any pretense of composure. The previously business-like smiles had vanished, replaced by genuine laughter and expressions of pure delight.
Pool Kyung-won and Do Kyung-soo continued to clap their hands repeatedly, each time with great force. Their hands were red from the impact, but they didn't mind at all. Meanwhile, Woo Shi-hun directly jumped up and sprawled on Pool Kyung-won's back, clutching his shoulders and shaking him vigorously to express his overwhelming joy.
Before they even left the artist's seating area, SHINee, a senior group from the same company who have always had a great relationship with XO, rushed over to give them a big hug.
Then, the most familiar member of the group, Bohao, hugged Chi Jingyuan tightly and patted him on the back a few times before letting go and hugging the other members.
"Congratulations, you guys are amazing."
Next came Jung Hyung, who also hugged Ji Kyung-won and punched him in the chest, looking proud and excited, shouting excitedly as well.
After a brief celebration, under everyone's gaze, the members strode towards the stage with wind in their steps.
The inspiring accompaniment also rises, and the narrator begins to introduce the winner's information: "For 2013 MMA's three major awards, the best song of the year goes to EXO's 'Growl'."
After setting a record on the online and offline album sales chart, EXO's "Growl" broke the record for the longest time a song by a male idol group has held the top spot on the music chart.
“From the time of its release in August until now, it has remained at the top of the music charts, being the song that brought about a super-hot trend for EXO.”
"EXO has already received three awards today, congrats! "
In the BGM of "Roar," all the members stood in a line on stage. Kim Jun-myeon received the grand prize trophy from In-soon and after bowing to express his gratitude, he took the microphone and began his acceptance speech:
"Today, I received three awards at the MMA. I'm truly honored and grateful. Thank you to teacher Lee Soo Man, the **Town family, our EXO members, and all of EXO's fans around the world who love us. From the bottom of my heart, thank you all. Right now, I'm really happy."
Kim Jun Mien looked really moved, his words weren't very coherent, and he had a hint of choked voice. However, he controlled his emotions well.
And he seemed to know that everyone was very excited, so his speech was short and after a few words he directly passed the microphone to Park Chan-Yeol beside him.
Usually, his acceptance speeches are mostly him speaking alone, but this time it was EXO's first major award and he knew the other members definitely wanted to express their feelings too.
“Thank you so much to EXO members’ parents, thank you, I love you…”
"Thank you to all the fans who have always believed in us, cheered us on, and loved us..."
Thank you...
The microphone passed from person to person, everyone's emotions and tone of voice sounded happy, but after some control, the members said a few words in their hearts one by one.
When it was Chi Jingyuan's turn, all the people to be thanked had already been thanked, including those who styled their hair and even the assistants' names were shown on screen.
"Inside..."
Chi Jingyuan took the microphone and pursed his lips.
"Ah ah..."
"Yuan!"
"Hello there..."
When it was Chi Jingyuan's turn to speak, his close-up appeared on the big screen, and the cheers suddenly rose by a decibel. Fans enthusiastically shouted his name. The atmosphere, which had become quieter because of the members' speeches, became lively again.
EXO's "Growl" won the award for Best Song of the Year, and anyone who has followed them knows just how much Park Kyung-won contributed to this song.
After the cheers had died down a little, Ji Jingyuan looked at the throng of fans before him. Every single one of them had a smile brighter than his, and more excitement in their eyes.
He suddenly burst into laughter, each member responding with a word. He didn't make a big deal out of it or say too much sentimentally, he just expressed his gratitude earnestly and firmly:
"To all those who have given for us, thank you."
"We will keep working hard with our fans to become the best EXO."
"Good morning."
