Chapter 93: Overly Enthusiastic

fun, and viewership ratings and reputation have been steadily declining recently. Even the long-held guarantee of being in the top four for simultaneous viewership has become unreliable.Lee Seung-hwan..."PDni is too flattering, I'm just an ordinary idol now, definitely not as excellent as you imagine."

Pool Jingyuan bowed, his expression looking a bit embarrassed.

As they chatted, the surrounding managers and EXO members who had just finished performing were secretly listening in, occasionally exchanging glances as if they had heard something confidential.

"Those humble words are unnecessary. I've been following you ever since your debut, and I know you better than you think."

Park Jin-young waved his hand and patted Ji Kyeong-won's back affably. "In my opinion, you are top-notch among all male artists in terms of both appearance and physique. Furthermore, your upbringing has given you an exceptional air that few can match."

As for singing and dancing, those are basic skills for idols. What I admire most is Jingyuan's demeanor, he can always remain polite no matter who he's facing. That kind of character is truly rare.

"**'s luck is so good..." Park Bo-young clearly admires Ji Kyeong-won very much, showered him with praise, and finally repeated her complaint about **.

"..."Faced with the other party's unceremonious praise, Chi Jingyuan didn't know what to say, he just smiled awkwardly, his smile looking like a pair of crescent moons.

"If you have time, come visit our JYP, it's not far from ** anyway. If there's a suitable opportunity, we definitely want to collaborate."

Park Jin-young said that when it came to the collaboration, inspiration clearly struck. As both the company president and music producer, his dual roles began to spark ideas, and his eyes lit up.

“You can try collaborating with our JYP artists… I think Sooji and you would look great together. Besides being idols, you both also pursue acting careers and have high popularity.”

"You two could do a collaboration song or stage performance, or even form a temporary group! I think this idea is really good."

Park Jin-young started by casually mentioning it, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this temporary group had market potential. Just as he was about to discuss it further, EXO's stage rehearsal on stage ended. Ji Kyeong-won smiled apologetically at him, bowed lightly, and then walked back onto the stage with the other members.

There is still one group stage to rehearse.

After everything was settled, Park Jin-young didn't chat any further. He had his own business to attend to. After getting Ji-seong's phone number, he smiled and waved goodbye. Ji-seong, along with the EXO members, quickly bowed to say their farewells.

Qi Jingyuan was actually a little strange inside. Even though Park Jin-young knew him fairly well, he seemed too enthusiastic.

"Oh my, as expected of the royal family! Even JYP's CEO is this fond of you and treats you so well. I heard he's quite strict with his male artists usually."

On the way back to the lounge, Wu Shixun, who had been listening in the whole time, approached them and said something in a yin-yang tone.

"The royal family is looking for a eunuch attendant recently, are you interested You seem quite suitable." Chi Jingyuan glanced at him.

"Oh, ancient thunder"

"Haha..." Do Kyung-Soo, who had been eavesdropping nearby, couldn't help but smile.

…………

At 4 pm, a red carpet event was held. EXO walked the red carpet together. The surrounding fans' cheers were still very loud. After they accepted interviews under a burst of flashlights, they left the photo area in three steps and two steps.

Walking the red carpet is more suitable for female artists, and Ji Jingyuan felt a bit awkward about it.

After the red carpet, the 2012 MAMA Awards ceremony officially began at 6:00 PM.

This year marks the first time MAMA is held on Hong Kong Island. To get closer to the island's audience, a nostalgic VCR featuring the late Leslie Cheung was played at the opening ceremony. The first performance of the night was a rendition of his classic song "當年情" (Those Days) by host Song Zhongji.

The entire venue is very large, with most of the audience already seated. At a glance, you can't see many empty seats. The stage is also very spacious, with a rectangular stage extending out to a walkway leading to a diamond-shaped performance platform. Behind the stage is a huge, door-style screen that can open to the left and right.

The front row seats below the stage are reserved for attending artists. The artists' seats are very close to the stage, and they can walk a few steps and climb a few stairs to get directly on stage, which is very convenient for receiving awards.

The artist's seating area and the audience seating area are separated by an advertisement board, but the distance between the last row of artists and the audience is very close; one could almost touch them with their outstretched hands.

At this moment, all eleven members of EXO were seated in the last row of the artist seats. They were all wearing white suits with silver trim, each impeccably styled and sitting upright, attentively watching the performance on stage.

You can't afford to be careless because there are several cameras capturing the artists from all angles nonstop. Sometimes, they even have VJs come over and focus on the artists' faces for close-ups. And the camera constantly switches to the live feed, showing everyone's expressions in plain sight.

Like at this kind of award ceremony, all the artists would be seated together, and then several VJs or fixed cameras would continuously film them. When others were performing or receiving awards, the camera often switched to the artists below, filming their reactions.

In such situations, many audiences and fans are very interested in the artists' rear ends, so basically all award ceremonies or large-scale performances where many artists attend will do this tirelessly.

At this time, you must not make a cold face or have any bad expressions, as this can easily be magnified by malicious people, causing dissatisfaction among the other party's fans and passersby, leading to negative consequences.

It's not just new groups like EXO, everyone on the artist's side is looking intently. When the camera cuts over to them they immediately smile and gesture with their hands to show how good the performance was.

Only when the camera is not facing this way can I breathe a sigh of relief and whisper a few words to the members beside me.

But Chik Jingyuan was not at the scene at this time, but was backstage preparing to go on stage to present awards. He sat with Jeong Eon-ji, watching the television screen in the waiting room.

To be honest, Song Joong-ki's singing... it's really just average. Both his breath control and intonation have issues, and it sounds weak and lifeless. There are a few parts where the notes aren't hit well, and during the chorus, he even gets slightly out of tune.

However, since he's not a real singer but just here as a guest appearance...

Nevermind, even Chi Jingyuan thinks the singing isn't good. It feels like he hasn't practiced a few times before going on stage.

At this moment, the screen cut to the artist's seats, with PSY's front view appearing. Several EXO members also followed suit, showing their faces. As soon as they saw themselves on camera, several EXO members immediately smiled and clapped, looking like they were immersed in the performance above, giving the impression that they thought the singer was doing a great job and they were very impressed.

Pool Kyung-won and Jeong Eun-ji next to him glanced at each other, shrugged, and burst out laughing.
