Chapter Sixty-Three: Collaborative Stage

betrayed, and we were also sad to see a good friend leave. After that, the other two members from Xia Guo were ostracized or isolated for a few days because of this incident. But things eventually go..."Don't keep walking around, aren't you tired Why don't you sit for a while"

Ji Jingyuan leaned against the sofa, holding a phone in his hand, but his eyes were squinting at Zheng Enyi who kept pacing back and forth beside him. He said in an exasperated tone, "I really admire you."

He is currently in the waiting room of the backstage at the recording of the singing program M!Countdown.

But this time, he wasn't with his EXO group members. Preparing to go on stage with him was Jung Eunji.

Today is September 6th.

When the OST "Our Love Like This" was released as the second song on number 4, it didn't have the same momentum as "Allforyou". However, thanks to the popularity of "Reply 1997", it still achieved a good ranking on various music charts.

On the same day, episodes 13 and 14 of the television drama, which are also the third-to-last and second-to-last episodes, were officially broadcast. Although the viewership increase was not significant, it still showed an upward trend.

However, "Reply 1997" is also about to enter the final two episodes. In order to give the ratings a final boost at the end, the production company and crew have launched many activities. While promoting online, they have also arranged for Park Bo-gum and Jung Eun-ji to perform on a music program stage.

M!CountDown just happens to belong to CJE&M, and "Reply 1997" is from the same company, so they arranged a special stage for the two of them.

Even if they weren't from the same company, M!Countdown would be very happy to have them both appear. After all, "Reply" has been incredibly popular recently, breaking many cable television records and with online discussions everywhere. The male and female leads have become some of the most talked-about artists thanks to this wave of popularity.

Chi Jingyuan could clearly feel it. When he participated in the program recording as an EXO-K member before, walking around backstage and greeting his seniors, most of them just gave polite smiles without much warmth.

When he appeared on the show, the staff were also the same. They didn't show much emotion when they met him and just called his name.

And recently, when he met other colleagues, the other party's smile was obviously much more sincere. Many seniors saw him and even took a few steps closer, patted him on the shoulder with an expression of "I have high hopes for you," and chatted for a long time.

By comparison, the feelings are even deeper. All I can say is that putting people on pedestals and tearing others down works anywhere, especially in the realistic entertainment industry.

At this time, he was waiting in the backstage room with Jung Eunji, preparing to go on stage.

Today their stage is a live stream, not a pre-recorded one.

As soon as Jung Eunji came in, she started acting up. One moment she was wailing, the next she was pacing back and forth in the waiting room, unable to stay still.

"I'm so nervous, I've never been this nervous on stage before." Jung Eun-ji covered her chest, her expression exaggerated.

Pool-Geon's assistant, Park Jae-hyun, and Jung Eun-ji's manager assistant are both waiting in the standby room. In addition to them, there are also several production company staff members and stylists.

But the two of them continued to get along casually, treating those around them as if they were air.

"Isn't this just an ordinary singing performance Haven't you ever performed on a collaboration stage"

Chi Jingyuan curled his lips: "Are you nervous because you're afraid of being on stage, or...are you nervous about performing with me"

Pool Jingyuan summed up the essence of the matter in a single sentence.

"What's it to you Memorize your own lyrics, don't forget them later."

"Ouch, this high heel is so uncomfortable..."

Jeong Eun-ji glared at him, returned to the sofa and sat down, taking off her high heels and giving her feet a massage.

She was a little over five feet six inches tall, and standing next to Chi Jingyuan, who was six feet four inches, she looked quite out of place. For the sake of stage harmony, she wore high heels at least ten centimeters high this time, possibly even more. Those heels looked like they could pierce through someone.

She frowned and rubbed her foot, couldn't sit still for a moment and looked at Chi Jingyuan again, asking: "Do you think we have a chance to win one this time"

"Are you a rookie who just debuted yesterday You don't even know that on M! Countdown, the first stage doesn't count towards scores or the rankings. Didn't your agency teach you that"

Ji Jingyuan looked at Zheng Eundi with disdain, glancing at Apk's manager as he spoke. His gaze was strange and full of meaning, causing the manager to instinctively cover his face.

Pool Jingyuan retracted his gaze and added:

"Besides, even if it counts towards the score, don't you think we stand no chance against "Gangnam Style" They won first place this week and achieved a three-peat graduation. How could we possibly challenge them and end their winning streak"

"We were this hot in 1997, and it's not without hope..." Jeong Eun Ji confidently expressed her strong belief in their side.

"That's right, if you don't come, there might still be a slight chance..."

"Oh!"

The two argued and chatted as they waited their turn to go on stage.

"Ahhh!" The moment the two people appeared on stage, the audience erupted in a deafening cheer. It was incredibly loud and invigorating.

Below there are no EXO or APK fans, they are all fans of other artists who participated in this music program.

These fans typically only cheer and scream when their own artists perform. For other artists' performances, they are basically indifferent.

But these fans who were focused on each individual member, upon seeing Ji Chang-wook and Park Seo-joon appear, all screamed in unison with great excitement, as if there were no boundaries.

The drama "Please Answer" has become really popular recently, and the CP pairing of Park Bo-gum and Jung Eun-ji is also very well-liked.

Before the stage officially began, a VCR of sweet moments between the two from "Please Answer" was played on screen, setting the mood.

As the music began, the two took to the stage for their performance.

The song "Allforyou" is very popular. After being rearranged and performed by the two singers, it has transformed from its original raspy male vocal style into a sweet duet that caters to the aesthetics of young people today and has been widely embraced.

Both Ji Chang-wook and Jeong Eun-ji possess excellent singing voices, with no apparent flaws. Their heartfelt and skillful vocals resonated throughout the stage. The several high notes they sang were flawlessly executed, leaving the audience below thoroughly impressed and in admiration of their talent.

And these two, while singing, would occasionally steal glances at each other, bringing to life the sweet love between Yun Zhai and Shi Yuan in the play. This performance ignited screams from the audience below and smiles from viewers watching at home, leaving them all satisfied.

After the curtain call, the two actors looked at each other and smiled. They left the stage amidst thunderous applause and cheers from the audience.
