Chapter Twenty-Seven: Congratulations on your Debut

oked up towards Chi Kyung-won, replying softly.She had just uttered the words when they were cut short.As she turned her head to look, Ji Jingyuan leaned over and pressed his lips directly onto hers."...After wandering afar, it returned to its original point.

"Even if you make mistakes, learning from them will make you stronger."

"The day when they merge into one, powerful like the sun."

“…………”

"Will we ever be able to look into each other's eyes again Will we ever truly understand one another"

"...."

>If you can change anything, change everything.

"Tell me, Maa, Maa."

“…………”

It has to be said that ** Entertainment was very well-prepared for EXO's debut. Their debut stage was nearly 8 minutes long, performing both the pre-release track "History" and the title track "MAMA" consecutively before exiting the stage amidst screams.

Several members had smiles on their faces, even Do Kyung-Soo who was destined to be scolded for going back, The whole stage they didn't make any obvious mistakes, it was considered a successful performance, the audience's reaction offstage was also quite intense, with a lot of cheers.

Chi Jingyuan wasn't so optimistic. From the beginning of the recording, he didn't think highly of their title song "MAMA," feeling that it lacked pop appeal. In private conversations, he even called it a "religious song," and doubted its potential for success.

And... Chi Jingyuan felt that their title song's styling was really kind of ugly, the overall outfit style was very strange, and it didn't at all show the charm that members of this age should have.

When filming the MV, he felt that the clothing was very strange. He couldn't put his finger on what it was, but it was definitely ugly.

Fortunately, his stage outfit today was still decent. He wore a simple white performance suit, which stood in stark contrast to the ragged black jackets worn by his teammates.

Back in the resting room, I was still catching my breath after dancing to two songs straight. Members settled down onto various seats while Ji-seong found his favorite corner again.

The manager is currently not around, and besides the two makeup artists and two assistants in the dressing room, there are also the members who seem to have more freedom.

"Oh, senior female artists who debuted before are different, getting closer and seeing them in person is really amazing!"

Hola is in great shape, Nicole's hair doesn't look good, but she's still pretty cute.

Park Chan-wook and Kim Jong-un were excitedly discussing the three MCs they had just interviewed.

"I actually think Senior IU is more eye-catching." Wu Shihun also chimed in.

All the male trainees had a deep admiration for beautiful female senior artists. While they were still trainees, their status prevented them from thinking too much about it. But now that they are both debuting artists, they can't help but stand taller and become bolder in their words.

"D.O., you're definitely going to get scolded when you go back," Kim Jun-myeon said, looking at Do Kyungsoo and shrugging his shoulders.

"Ah, Jia, I've memorized that word so many times, I'm just too nervous." Do Kyung-soo also felt a bit regretful, but his mindset was still good: "Anyway, I'm used to being scolded, just listen..."

"...".

Several people sat in their respective positions, discussing the interview and the stage just now in a loud voice. At this time, Ji Jingyuan's phone vibrated, opened it and flipped through it, several congratulatory messages came one after another.

“kkkkk I watched your stage, how to say kkkk, it's quite strange, the style and appearance are quite strange... But you are still very dazzling, shining Blgblg in the crowd, congratulations on your debut, Fightg!!! (￣︶￣) ”

This is Sunny's message.

"Congratulations to Jingyuan for his debut! Rough Khada Hamid!! Have time to celebrate! I'm so envious seeing your stage!!! Fightg! EXO **." This is from Kang Se-bi.

"Why are you guys wearing such strange clothes The songs aren't very good either... But as expected of my younger brother, you're the most eye-catching one in the whole group. Are the other people on stage your backup dancers"

This is older brother Ji-seok's.

"Congratulations to our Jingyuan for his debut, is there anything you want Here's a reward from the eldest sister, Jihyun."

"...

"

Chi Jingyuan looked at these congratulatory messages, a knowing smile blooming on his face. He took his phone and replied to each one.

Just as he was waiting for his reply to the last text message, his manager walked in, greeted them and then led them out of the SBS television station. They got into a van and drove to the next venue.

The company made a lot of arrangements for their debut, including a debut stage on Inkigayo and some commercial performances in shopping malls and universities. As for interview activities, there were many more, basically non-stop running around to attend events.

However, out of all these activities, only the debut stage was broadcast live on TV. The other activities can only be considered as some small announcements.

After all, given their status as rookies, if they want to take on activities with more exposure, it requires the company to invest resources. And the company has already prepared quite a bit, but resources aren't unlimited. The better exposure opportunities they can receive in the future will depend on their own popularity and development.

Up to now, Ji-seong's group EXO has officially debuted, and he has also become a debuting artist.

If it were written in an encyclopedia, his debut date would be April 8, 2012.

As a boy group, wanting to succeed naturally means that popularity is the priority. ** company has been laying the groundwork for EXO's debut for almost half a year, releasing news or videos every few days online to increase hype. And because of Ji-sung's debut video, their exposure in the past month has increased even more. It can be said that EXO has been doing very well recently, attracting enough attention. Now it remains to be seen how much their debut song "MAMA" will boost them.

On April 9th, the sound source and physical album of their first mini-album "MAMA" were officially released.

"Act like you're drinking milk, smile, smile..."

"Open your eyes a little, uh, yeah, keep them..."

"Don't look at the camera, I'm shooting from the side..."

"Ah, jijija, this facial features combination is truly excellent, one look and you feel close to them. And their temperament is really amazing, clearly not from an ordinary family... Jingyuan ah, what does your family do that cultivates you so well"

The PD in charge of the shoot was quite excited, watching Park Ji-won strike poses, chattering away incessantly.

But he's still filming and doesn't expect a reply from Ji Jingyuan.

At this time, Chi Jingyuan is on the ninth floor of an office building in Seoul, filming a commercial for student milk that a company has hired him for.

This is already the third commercial he has filmed this week, so he's gained quite a bit of experience. He can easily do all sorts of poses and expressions that the ad director requests, so filming goes smoothly and quickly.

"The lights aren't too bright... Yeah, just like that..."

"Okay, done!"

After filming for half a day, as Ji Jingyuan struck the final pose, the advertising director officially announced the completion of the shoot.

"Consandrita, Consandrita..."

As filming wrapped, Chi Jingyuan stood up and bowed to the staff across from him. He smiled and bid them farewell, receiving many kind responses in return. It seemed they were very satisfied with the efficiency of this project.

And several female staff members even walked up to greet and say goodbye to Ji Jingyuan. When they saw him up close, they all gasped in admiration, staring at him for several seconds before reluctantly leaving.

The assistant, Choi Ji-chang, who was always by his side and equipped by the company, quickly came over to take Park Geon-won's coat and put it on him. He also took the milk from his hand and gave it to the staff member.

"We are very satisfied with the ad shoot this time, and we will continue to communicate with ** Company for future promotions."

After some conversation between the representative of the dairy company and EXO's manager, Li Chenghuan, the latter got up and left. Li Chenghuan then walked to Ji Kyoung-won's side, and together they greeted the people around them before leaving.

As he was about to leave the set, advertising director Kim Jin-long walked over, bowed to Ji Chang-wook after his greetings and said in a praising tone: "Yuan is really a high-quality artist. In my experience and vision, Jingyuan is especially suitable for commercial shooting, he can easily capture the audience's attention. He is also very expressive, able to quickly understand the director's intentions, and give me the expressions and poses I have in mind. Your company chose him right."

"Kang San-mi Da..." Lee Seung-hwan and Ji Kyeong-won thanked together.

"Hehehe..." Kim Jae-long patted Ji Seong-won on the shoulder and smiled as he turned to leave. He seemed to have come over just to praise him a couple of times.
