Otherwise, I could show you. My look today was pretty good, even though some of the clothes I chose were changed. Some of them were still my own choices, it's a pity. (wink)”"Well, that's a shame."Alt..."Jingyuan, I heard your band won a very impressive award yesterday. Congratulations!"
Before filming began, Jeong Seon-ho proactively approached and smiled at Ji-young along with screenwriter Kim Eun-sook to congratulate him, which surprised Ji-young who quickly stood up to return the greeting and express his gratitude.
That's the biggest award in the music industry, it's considered the highest honor for an idol. Doesn't Shin-hye know that
Kim Eun-sook glanced at him with a feigning expression of displeasure and offered a bit of enlightenment.
"Haha... I don't usually pay much attention to the music scene. If it weren't for Jingyuan filming on set, I probably wouldn't have known about this."
Jiang Xinxiao let out a laugh and patted Chi Jingyuan's shoulder, offering words of encouragement: "Jingyuan, you've been so successful as an idol and you're also a great actor. When you win a major award in the film and television industry in the future, don't forget to mention my name in your acceptance speech!"
"Inside, thank you director ni and Enshun Na, I will definitely continue to work hard."
A look of surprise crossed Chi Jingyuan's face as he bowed in gratitude. Then, he smiled sheepishly.
Haha...
After a brief chat, the director and screenwriter left to start work for the day.
As the most important creative personnel in the crew, their attention to Ji-won's news and their special visit to congratulate him is a great honor. It's something unimaginable for other idol actors.
Chi Jingyuan knew in his heart that besides the fact he was the male lead and they had high expectations for him, there were other factors at play.
"Why did you reply to my message from yesterday so late"
After seeing the director and screenwriter walk away, Jung So-jung, who had been watched by everyone from Ji-seong to the crew, quickly approached him. Standing in front of him, she puckered her lips slightly, tilted her head back, and stared at Ji-seong with displeasure as she questioned him.
"When you sent the message, we were busy behind the scenes, celebrating and taking verification photos. We replied as soon as we had time... Are you in a hurry"
Chi Jingyuan slightly lowered his head, looking at her furrowed brows and raised red lips. He used his hand to brush a stray strand of hair from her forehead behind her ear. First, he smiled and explained, then he twitched his mouth, seemingly puzzled by her reaction.
He was calm and natural in his demeanor, as if he were simply doing something ordinary.
Only Zheng Xiujing's body stiffened visibly. The momentum she had just run over to question with anger instantly disappeared, her furrowed brows suddenly spread open, and her gaze involuntarily drifted elsewhere. Her voice weakened: "Who was very anxious Isn't it polite to reply to others in a timely manner... "
She spoke haltingly, her voice growing softer under Chi Jingyuan’s intense gaze. Eventually, she was so flustered by his stare that she stamped her foot angrily and shoved him in the chest with a huff, throwing caution to the wind. With a frustrated tone, she retorted: "What Is it wrong for me to be anxious Don't you understand what I mean Stop acting so dumb!"
"Sure, of course. Sun-Kyung senior is so pretty, she can do whatever she wants."
Seeing her reaction, Chi Jingyuan chuckled and sat down on the stool behind him, leaning back lazily against the backrest.
"Remember to reply to me faster next time."
Zheng Xiujing lightly patted him and reminded him, "Seeing that Park Kyung-won nodded in agreement, her earlier discontent vanished. She moved a stool over and sat beside him, curiously inquiring about yesterday's awards ceremony:
"I guessed that you EXO would definitely win a Daesang. Although I don't usually listen to boy group songs, I really like "Growl". I heard you had a celebratory dinner with your seniors SHINee yesterday to celebrate, did you have fun"
“It was just a meal, we chatted and had some fun together, nothing else really happened. But I was truly happy, it was the best time I've felt in a while.”
Chi Jingyuan nodded, a smile still playing on his face as he relived the joy of yesterday.
"It's great, we haven't even touched the edge of a grand prize since joining FX. At most, we've only won a few minor prizes. Oh well, I wonder when we'll ever win a grand prize... Looking at this situation, it seems unlikely that we'll ever win one in the future."
When talking about her own group, Jung Soo-jung sighed, with evident envy in her eyes.
"As long as seniors are beautiful, it doesn't matter if they win awards or not."
"Oh, come on, I'm serious here. Don't you joke around!"
"Do you need me to comfort you"
"Humph, don't…"
…………
"Jǐngyuán xī, you don't need to worry about me, just do what you normally do in private. You can do whatever you want, we'll edit it later, so don't worry too much about bad shots being broadcast."
VJ, carrying a camera, confidently introduced to Chi Jingyuan the shooting process for later. He gestured for Chi Jingyuan to express his true self.
"Alright, I understand."
Chi Jingyuan slightly bowed and nodded to show that he understood.
It is past ten o'clock in the evening. They are currently in the EXO practice room of ** company building, filming for the second episode of the EXO variety show “EXO’s Showtime”.
This episode is about the members' private lives. In reality, the twelve members were divided into several groups to go out to eat, shop, ride bikes, watch movies, etc. The VJ followed them throughout the entire process and then edited it together, claiming to fans that this was EXO's most authentic side.
This week's episode felt kind of insincere. I mean, Pool Jingyuan has been in EXO for so long, I haven't seen him hang out with the other male members much, like going for bike rides or watching movies together.
Even if he goes, he'll probably invite other people along, especially women.
He was very busy filming today, returning to the company late. So, he didn't go out with the other members, but stayed at the company to continue shooting. A VJ followed him all the time, and an assistant watched on standby, ready to help whenever needed.
After VJ gave him a brief introduction, the filming officially began as soon as the camera's indicator light turned on.
Chi Jingyuan took the gaming console out of his shoulder bag, put on the black-rimmed glasses and headphones that his elder sister had given him, and started playing directly on the floor of the practice room.
VJ immediately pointed the camera at Chi Jingyuan and started filming seriously.
Just twenty minutes later...
"Yuanxi…"
"Yuanxi……”
"Oh, dear."
Ji Jingyuan felt someone calling his name, so he hurriedly controlled the character to run to a safe zone and took his headset on and off. He looked at the VJ and asked with confusion, "PD ni, is there something wrong"
"Ani Ani, I'm not a PD..."
VJ's voice appeared on screen, he shook his hand and politely declined Pool Jingyuan's address of him as PD. Then, he tentatively asked: "Yuanxi just... keeps playing games Doesn't go eat something, or practice some dance moves or something"
This VJ initially thought that Chi Jingyuan was just playing around and creating the persona of someone who enjoys gaming, and after a while, he would start doing other things.
He just didn't expect the other party to be so invested. Looking at the other person, he estimated that if he didn't remind him, Chi Jingyuan could play until his camera ran out of battery.
"Later, after the members come back, we should probably practice dancing together. After all, we have a special stage in a few days..."
Chi Jingyuan nodded, although he didn't continue playing, his gaze returned to the game screen, as if worried that his character's position was not safe enough. He then added, "I asked Shixun to bring me some food. I'll be able to eat it in a while."
"Do you have any other questions" he asked, blinking.
“I'm not a PD... uh, never mind.”
“Go, Kondo-san!”
He said a thanks and happily picked it back up to continue playing, but this time Chi Jingyuan only wore one earphone, afraid that if someone called him later he wouldn't hear and be impolite.
One hour later...
"Yuanxi."
"Inner."
"Yuanxi, do you feel... like there's a bit more workload when filming gameplay"
VJ hesitated for a moment before asking another question.
"Well... VJ Ni, what is the main focus of our EXO "Showtime" variety show, and what are we emphasizing in our promotion to fans"
Chi Jingyuan put down his game console, looked at the camera and VJ's face, and seriously asked.
"Of course it's real, our show emphasizes authenticity. We want to show EXO's personalities and lives behind the scenes, beyond the dazzling lights of twelve members on camera, so that more people can understand and love EXO."
When it came to this VJ, they answered fluently and effortlessly, it seemed like they attended a lot of meetings in their usual life.
"Congratulations, VJni, you've done it now."
Giving the VJ a thumbs-up, Ji Jingyuan picked up the game console again and continued playing, nonchalantly adding:
"This is what I'm really like, nothing more, nothing less..."
