Chapter 86 Good

me more arduous again.However, Ji-yeong isn't on set these two days. He took leave from the drama crew and went to Xia Guo with his team. There are a lot of interviews and stages that EXO-K needs to a...“The concept behind the song 'Roar' is the roar of a boy who doesn't want his beloved girl to be taken away. When it comes to roaring and shouting, I think of animals, so I watched some videos about animals and found that gorillas have very characteristic movements, so I imitated their movements and made this choreography. I think these movements are very interesting.”

The overall choreography should not be too difficult, as it hinders dissemination and makes it easy for dancers to fall out of sync when performing together, which greatly affects the overall stage effect. It's better to use some simple but magical movements, like this...

On the phone screen, Ji Jingyuan in a plain short-sleeved shirt, shorts, and sneakers was discussing the choreography for "Roar" with several dance instructors. After speaking for a while, he demonstrated a move where his left hand rested across his chest and his right hand pounded forcefully, his head bobbing forward to the beat.

Now, this move has become one of the most memorable and iconic choreographies in the "Roar" dance.

While watching a video on her phone, Park Soo-hyun's eyes curved into crescent moons, revealing a sweet smile.

She is currently watching a compilation of behind-the-scenes footage and practice room versions of the MV for EXO's re-released album "Growl".

This compilation was officially uploaded to **'s official website and YouTube on September 5th. As soon as it was uploaded, it sparked a surge of excitement from fans and passersby.

For fans who have always been curious about EXO's private lives, this seems like a treasure trove. They flocked to watch it repeatedly, and the click count has skyrocketed in just a few days. The content has also sparked widespread discussion.

Actually, Park Jihyun had seen it once right when it was released on the 5th. However, she really liked some of the behind-the-scenes shots, so she often took a look at it whenever she was bored in the following days.

At this moment, she sat by the wall of the practice room, her legs together in front of her, her phone resting on her lap, happily watching something again.

It's lunchtime now, but instead of eating by herself, she asked a friend to bring her some food. This way, she'll have more free time.

Since EXO started producing "Growl," including practice sessions, practically everything they did had a VJ filming them the whole time. After post-production editing, the entire collection is quite long.

And the ** released behind-the-scenes footage includes production meetings, recording sessions, choreography processes, and even backstage scenes from rehearsals and music video shoots, allowing countless fans to be thrilled while understanding their idol's behind-the-scenes process.

"Good job, get some rest..."

At this time, Chi Jingyuan and the dance teachers in the phone ended their work and bid each other farewell.

He walked out of the company building with a single shoulder bag. It was deep in the night, with no one around. A bright moon hung high in the sky, casting a pale light. On the left side of the screen, the current time is 3:30 AM.

In the lens, Ji Jingyuan's back gradually fades away on the road. Accompanying him are only the yellowish streetlights on both sides of the road and the clear but somewhat lonely footsteps.

The screen on the phone darkened and went to the next page, showing a clip of Ji Jingyuan and the teachers teaching the members the "Roar" dance.

"This move has to be done with force, it can't be soft and weak, it won't look right. Our choreography this time isn't difficult, but feeling is important."

It's the same choreography with right-hand tapping that Pool Jinkyung demonstrated, while the members followed suit.

After that, the members practiced "Roar" day and night, burning the midnight oil. They squeezed in practice time during their Wolf promotions, but there were quite a few mishaps along the way.

This section depicts a situation where members repeatedly make low-level mistakes during practice. The atmosphere in the room is tense, and the manager is criticizing them.

"Jingyuan, you choreographed the whole song and taught everyone else's moves. How can you keep forgetting your own part"

In the lens, Lee Seung-hwan frowned and spoke to Ji Kyeong-won, his tone serious yet tinged with helplessness.

"Ma na da."

Chi Jingyuan pursed his lips, apologized, and his expression looked a little bad. His brows and eyes clearly showed exhaustion.

Seeing this continuous series of urgent reactions, the hard-working paintings, even Bae Ju-hyeon couldn't help but purse her lips together.

He is not always on television, or as glamorous and dazzling as rumored. He also works hard, gets tired, and feels down and sad at times.

P.E. Zhuhyun's bright eyes gazed at the boy on her phone whose face looked a bit pale. A feeling of empathy arose in her heart, making her feel that the boy who had seemed so far away before suddenly felt much closer.

"So-called 'oake,' which is a one-shot filming technique, the most important thing is to create the feeling that the members are operating the camera themselves and experiencing it firsthand. To maximize the expression of each member's charm and our dance moves…"

Many of our choreographies are not standalone, but interactive with the camera, requiring a natural execution...

"The camera design, I've already discussed with PDni. The camera will start on the left side and slowly move over to here, then..."

"Se-Hun, your performance here isn't quite right. When interacting with the camera, don't be too deliberate. Use a little more force in your gestures..."

The behind-the-scenes collection has entered the second half. When filming the "Roar" MV, Ji Chang Wook stood in the middle of the set. He was dressed as he would be in the MV and explained the elements and points to note during the shoot while making gestures to help them understand more easily.

The other eleven members formed a semi-circle, surrounding Ji Jingyuan in the center, listening intently.

Although they were all wearing light gray school uniforms, at this moment, they created a feeling of being surrounded by stars, and the moon was Chi Jingyuan who was explaining at the time.

He was dressed as he was in the MV. At this time, his eyes were bright, his voice was clear, and his expression was serious and formal.

Including Pei Zhuhyun, many fans and idols who saw this scene had their eyes shining as they stared at the person in the center of the screen. They thought that Ji Kyeong-won was truly handsome and irresistible at this moment.

This behind-the-scenes clip is the most rewatched segment. After EXO's "Growl" became a huge hit, the one-shot MV filming technique received attention from many companies in the industry. Many people clicked on it to see how "Growl" was filmed so well when the behind-the-scenes footage came out.

Next, the behind-the-scenes collection entered its final stage: the filming process of the practice room version MV for "Roar," as well as the finished MV itself.

By now, almost all the viewers have understood that the member who best embodies personal charm and leaves a lasting impression in this behind-the-scenes footage is Park Ji-won. He's practically everywhere throughout the entire footage, and his image is portrayed and enhanced through both frontal and side views.

After all, the song "Roar" is too closely related to him. Anyone who watches the behind-the-scenes footage will admit that without Ji-sung, there wouldn't be the explosive "Roar" we have today, and EXO wouldn't be this popular right now.

While the previous sections described Chi Jingyuan's handsomeness and charm, this part takes a different turn.

Inside the studio, all twelve members of EXO have gathered and are preparing to begin filming the practice room version of their MV.

They were mostly barefaced, each wearing their own casual clothes. Many wore hats to conceal their makeup-free faces.

This is also the charm of the practice room version MV. Without makeup or stage costumes, and without too much rendering, it naturally shows the most authentic dance.

As the members were getting into position, ready to roll cameras, the manager suddenly spoke up, capturing everyone's attention:

"Wait a minute, Jingyuan, your clothes..."

"Bro, what's up"

In the lens, Ji Jingyuan glanced suspiciously in the direction of his manager, then looked down at his own clothes and asked strangely, “Don’t my clothes look good”

"Annie, um… it's pretty good looking, just I feel like your outfit's style isn't quite in line with the vibe of "The Roar"...

"Hahaha…"

"I think so too, but I told him and he wouldn't listen."

"Jingyuan just loves this style, he thinks it's especially cool, it's really speechless..."

As soon as the manager spoke, all the members turned to look at Ji-yeong. After hearing this, they all burst into laughter immediately. Several members pointed at him with exaggerated expressions and teased him.

The camera gave Ji Jingyuan a close-up shot. He was dressed normally, in sports shorts and sneakers, but when viewers saw his shirt, they couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He was wearing a plain black short-sleeve shirt at the time. Nothing particularly strange about it, except that on the front was a duck with its head tilted to one side, its two little arms wrapped around its head, staring blankly ahead at the Charmander.

This duck is huge, covering almost two-thirds of the short sleeve's front area. It's very noticeable, especially under the camera's gaze. This duck seems to be staring directly at everyone in front of the screen, its blank stare provoking both laughter and a sense of intellectual superiority.

Hearing the members' comments, Ji Kyung-won dismissively smirked, giving off an expression of 'you don't understand'.

"Why don't you change your clothes, Jingyuan"

The agent probed with a tentative question.

This duck is certainly funny, but it doesn't really fit the style of "Roar" at all. Wearing this outfit would take the audience out of the story.

"Bro, where can I find clothes to wear now"

Chi Jingyuan felt a bit helpless, always feeling that his aesthetics and preferences sometimes seemed to be in a different dimension from the members'.

He thought for a moment and then sighed: “Then I’ll just put the noodles on backwards.”

"Okay, that's it. Just make sure the duck doesn't show up."

The manager immediately nodded, and among the members' ecstatic smiles, Ji-yeong flipped his shirt inside out in a way that was hidden from the camera before returning to his spot.

After the filming began, for some reason, all the audience's attention was no longer on the MV. Most of their gazes were fixed on Ji Kyeong-won, watching the faint yellow color faintly peeking through the front of his inside-out short sleeve, smiling uncontrollably.

Seeing this scene again, Bae Joo-hyun couldn't help but smile brightly. She covered her mouth with her left hand, a sliver of white teeth peeking through her fingers. With her right hand, she absentmindedly touched her head, as if remembering her favorite baseball cap lately.

For some reason, seeing Chi Jingyuan wearing a Duck Tales costume on the screen suddenly lifted her spirits. She felt energized all of a sudden.

"Oni, I brought back what you wanted... What are you looking at"

Jiang Seqi didn't know when she entered the practice room and walked to Park Soo-Hyun's side. She suddenly spoke, startling Park Soo-Hyun who jumped and exclaimed, "Ah!"

Seeing this, Jiang Shiqi let out a 'hee hee' chuckle, she did it on purpose.

After laughing, Jiang Sheqi walked over and glanced at her phone, nodding knowingly. “Unnie is watching the behind-the-scenes footage of Jingyuan and the others again. I've watched it several times too, it's really well made and very interesting. It's getting a lot of praise online, XO's fans are all very excited.”

Nodding in agreement, she sat beside him and handed the things she brought to Park Ji-hyeon. Kang Seori smacked her lips and then said:

"After seeing these behind-the-scenes glimpses, I realize how hard Jingyuan and the senior EXO members worked. They put in so much effort for this comeback, and now that they're this popular, it's truly a reward for their hard work... Plus, Jingyuan is amazing! He practically completed the song 'Roar' on his own. I don't even know how to describe how impressive that is."

"Right, oppa."

"o"

Kim Gi-seok suddenly shouted, and Bae Joo-hyeon, who had been listening silently all along, quickly replied.

In the behind-the-scenes footage, that duck costume from the set has already become a hot topic. I remember you seem to have a hat with the same pattern, right It's called... Duck Donald

“Well, yeah, me too... I really like Pokémon.”

"Well, your hobbies are quite interesting! I'll introduce you to each other next time. I think you'd get along great."

Hearing this, Pei Joo-hyuk looked at Kang Seo-qi, blinked her eyes and smiled sweetly:

Okay.
