peninsula asteroid.

Chapter 242 That's EXO's Yuan?

The place for the trainee showcase on the 23rd was held in the art hall of a literature and art center called 'rolling hit' in Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam-gu.

Because the geographical location is very close, and the decoration and service in all aspects are very good, SM has a long-term cooperation with this venue, and many trainee showcases have been held here.

And this time it was held by SM and JYP. The trainees on both sides have a lot of performance stages. The ordinary venues are already a bit small, so this will use the art hall with the largest area and audience capacity.

Speaking of this time, the two companies will jointly hold a showcase, which has something to do with Chi Jingyuan.

It is because he and Bae Suzy reached a cooperation agreement before, and because JYP has a high intention to cooperate and is very sincere during the negotiation and negotiation process, SM took a lot of benefits.

Since then, the relationship between the two companies has deepened a lot. This time, it is because JYP is preparing to launch a girl idol group next year, and SM has recently also had the idea of ​​a new girl group. The two companies decided to do it together. In this showcase, train the trainees, and take a look at their performance.

The performance officially started at 7 o'clock in the evening, but now it is more than three o'clock in the afternoon, and the two lounges in the backstage specially equipped by the venue are already full of voices.

This women's lounge is very large, and the participating female trainees are basically concentrated here. Besides them, there are also a few male trainees. They are because the boys' lounge next to it is overcrowded because of its small area. Come here to take a break for a while.

A row of dressing tables and chairs are placed against the wall in front of the lounge, and it is already full of people who are accepting Cody's makeup.
On the left side, there are a lot of chairs and sofas, and they are already full of people. These are the trainees who have no stage performances today, and come here with the company's seniors to learn more and feel the atmosphere.

The people in the room were all sitting in groups, chatting quietly.

The trainees of the two companies have already greeted each other and greeted each other. Although they didn't communicate with each other much because they were not familiar with each other, the atmosphere of getting along was quite harmonious.

Originally, the peninsula music industry was very small, and the buildings of SM and JYP are still very close to each other. Many trainees know each other privately, and many trainees even used to be from the same school, and most of them are the same age. So there is no gap.

And from another perspective, trainees from different companies have no direct competition due to their debut, and their conflicts of interest are not as large as those of their own companies. Some people also like to make friends with people from other companies.

"Lena's coming to you."

"coming."

Lin Nayeon, who had just finished her styling, stood up from the mirror and at the same time called out to the friend next to her, then moved away from her seat and walked to a small sofa not far away.

Yu Jeong-yeon and Park Ji-hyo who were sitting on the sofa moved to both sides at the same time, giving way to the space in the middle. Lin Nayeon came over and sat down, stretched and moved around comfortably.

The three of them are members of JYP's new female idol group 6MIX, and they have a good relationship among many trainees. They can be regarded as a relatively well-known small group in JYP.

"Oni, if our stage is obviously not as good as SM's this time, won't we be scolded after we go back?"

Yu Jeongyeon looked at Lin Nayeon who had put on makeup, applauded to express that she looked good, and then asked a little worried.

"I will definitely be scolded. Although I didn't say it clearly, the company must have thought of competing with each other. We are still a girl group preparing to debut. If the trainees can't compare, it will be miserable if the loss is ugly."

Park Jihyo patted his chest with a firm tone.

The two of them have already finished their makeup and chatted here for a long time, and they are a little nervous about the showcase at night, after all, SM people are watching from below.

"By the way, Nayeon Unnie, is there anyone you know at SM?"

After chatting for a while, Yu Dingyan asked a question.

"Of course there is."

Lin Nayeon glanced to the side, just in time to see Jiang Seulqi who was sitting on the sofa a few meters away from them and also looked over at the same time, after their eyes collided, they smiled and shook their hands, then looked away.

"Of course I know each other, but I'm not very familiar... YG has a few relatives that I'm familiar with."

Lin Nayen glanced around casually again, pursed her lips and replied.

"Then you are much better than me, I don't know anyone..."

…………

At this time, Zhou Ziyu and Kong Xue, who were sitting on the left side of the lounge, were also talking in low voices.

Zhou Ziyu was wearing a dark blue long down jacket at this time. The corners of the clothes hung down to her knees, covering her body tightly. However, because the indoor heating was turned on quite hot, she opened the zipper to reveal the inside Fitted crewneck.

He wore a white baseball cap on his head. The brim of the hat was not much makeup, and his face without makeup was covered a lot. His long straight black hair extended from both sides of the hat and draped over his shoulders.

What makes people a little eye-catching is that there is a cute pink elf printed in the middle of her hat. People who know her can tell at a glance that it is the fat boy from the classic animation "Pokémon".

The two of them didn't have a stage performance today. Sitting on the small sofa at this time, they looked at the seniors who were nervously putting on makeup, and the seniors who had just finished rehearsal and came back to take a rest, with a lot of envy in their eyes.

To be a trainee is to debut, to go on stage and express yourself in front of everyone, so it is very tempting for every trainee to have their own stage performance in a showcase.

It's a pity that Zhou Ziyu has practiced for less than a year, and he can't speak Korean at a good level so far, so he doesn't know when he will be able to make it to this showcase.

Now she can only come here to have a soy sauce, feel the atmosphere, and act as an audience and applauder off the stage when the performance officially starts.

To be honest, although she understood this arrangement very well, Zhou Ziyu was quite unwilling in her heart.

In fact, it's not just her, everyone who can't play is like this.

"I feel that these seniors look so energetic today..."

Kong Xue observed for a long time, sighed and sighed: "It would be great if we can also play, I really want Cody to make a model and then go to the rehearsal."

"........."

Zhou Ziyu pursed her lips lightly when she heard the words, glanced at the trainees in the distance with her big eyes, which resembled Fat Ding, and echoed in a low voice: "I want to too."

"Unfortunately, we can only wait for the next opportunity."

Kong Xue shook her head helplessly, calmed down her emotions, and suddenly remembered something, and looked at Zhou Ziyu: "By the way, Ziyu, you haven't told me when I asked you last time, where did you buy this hat?"

"The fat guy on your hat is so cute, and the workmanship is also very good. I also like "Pokémon" very much, and I want to buy one like yours, but I looked for it, and it seems that there is no similar style like yours on the market. hat of."

Talking about this, Kong Xue stared at Zhou Ziyu's hat with some covetousness for a long while, and kept staring at Zhou Ziyu a little awkwardly, and couldn't help stretching out her hand to tighten the hat tightly.

"This is...a gift from a friend, and I don't know where he bought it." After thinking about it, Zhou Ziyu replied cautiously.

"Give it away? Oh, there's no other way. If you have a chance next time, please help me to ask... You are a friend who really knows how to choose. I feel that this hat is very suitable for you. Don't you think that you and Fat Ding look alike ?"

After pursing her lips helplessly, Kong Xue looked at the other party with some envy.

"Hey..." Zhou Ziyu laughed a little smugly after hearing this, and touched the brim of his hat: "I also like this pattern very much, isn't it cute?"

"So cute."

Kong Xue nodded to confirm, and reluctantly withdrew her eyes from the hat, and then looked at the SM trainees sitting in the distance:
"Many people from SM came today. I don't know if there are any from our country. I really want to meet."

"But as expected of SM, the trainees over there are pretty pretty, especially the girl over there, Tzuyu, did you see that? The one sitting on the sofa playing with her phone, wow, she really looks good. "

Following Kong Xue's gaze, Zhou Ziyu also looked over and nodded slightly: "It's very beautiful."

In fact, when she first met, she had discovered that the senior's face was very conspicuous even among the outstanding trainees.

"But Ziyu, you're also very good-looking...but your skin is a little darker." Kong Xue turned to look at her with a very serious expression.

"You...you're so smart!" The front was quite happy, but the latter sentence directly made Zhou Ziyu frown and hit her lightly.

"Hahaha, that's what it was... Hey, you see that pretty female trainee ran out, what is she going to do?"

Kong Xue dodged with a smile, and then, out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the person they had been watching for a long time standing up from the sofa, and quickly left the lounge without knowing where she was going.

"Why do you care what other people are doing? Also, I'm not hacking anymore!"

…………

"Winning xi, it's your turn."

"Here comes the inside."

I was chatting with Jiang Seulgi on twitter, and Sun Seungwan was called to do styling, and only Bae Joohyun and Jiang Seulgi were left sitting on the sofa in this small group.

Pei Zhuxuan didn't talk much. After putting on her makeup, she wrapped herself in a coat and stuffed herself on the sofa. She didn't play with the phone in her hand, but kept holding it, unlocking it from time to time, and then locked it again.

"Hasn't he come yet?" Jiang Seul-ki asked after seeing it, and after seeing Pei Zhuxuan shook her head, she continued: "It's normal, EXO is very busy, it's not surprising that they are late for the performance. Jing Yuan can spare time It’s good to be here.”

Jiang Seulqi was not that impatient. Of course she was happy that Chi Jingyuan could come. After all, it’s been a long time since relatives have seen each other. It’s completely understandable if they are late or can’t come. Just hearing the rumors, I feel that EXO’s itinerary is really a bit devilish.

She glanced around boredly, and just happened to meet Lin Nayeon, whom she had known before, and greeted with a smile.

"Unnie, the few people over there are the new girl group that JYP mentioned in the announcement a few days ago."

After retracting her gaze, Jiang Seulqi couldn't help but looked over again, pushed Pei Zhuxuan lightly, and took a breath enviously: "I'm sure I can debut, that's great."

In November, JYP Corp and JYPE merged to form the new JYP. A month after the merger, a notice was issued, announcing that 'the most beautiful six-member group in JYP history, the girl group 11MIX will come out in April 6 at the earliest.

The news that JYP, which has always been famous for cultivating girl groups, is about to launch a new girl group has naturally attracted a lot of attention. Naturally, Jiang Seulgi and the others also know that they are very yearning for Lim Nayeon's pre-debut status of 6 people.

When Pei Zhuxuan heard the words, she also raised her eyes and looked over, as if thinking of herself again, her expression was a little complicated.

Suddenly, the screen of her mobile phone glowed and vibrated at the same time. Pei Zhuxuan was startled and quickly opened it and looked over, her eyes lit up immediately, and she said at the same time: "Here we come."

"Is Jing Yuan here?"

"Nai, he said that he is now at the gate of the venue."

Pei Zhuxuan nodded, then quickly put on the coat that wrapped her body, said "I'll pick him up" before standing up and walking out with short legs.

"Really, why are you in such a hurry..."

Looking at Pei Zhuxuan's back, Jiang Seulqi couldn't help curling her lips.

But when she heard that Chi Jingyuan had come earlier, she was actually quite happy, and she couldn't help crossing her legs, waiting while swiping her phone, humming softly.

…………

Chi Jingyuan got out of the car, followed Park Jae-hyun to say goodbye and agreed to pick him up after the end.

Looking at the scattered snowflakes falling from the sky, he who had already put on the mask let out a soft breath.

I went to the company early this morning, and now I practiced together with the members for a few hours, and then I went to run my personal schedule separately. Before I came here, I just finished shooting a pictorial and accepted an interview.

He went back and changed his clothes, took off his makeup and rushed over.

It was originally planned to have a commercial shooting case, but Chi Jingyuan pushed it to the early hours of the morning.

The tall and long-legged Chi Jingyuan just got off the station and stood at the entrance of the venue. After a while, he attracted the attention of nearby passers-by, and many people looked here frequently.

Even though he was wearing a hat and a mask, but the whole person stood there, whether it was temperament or feeling, he obviously distanced himself from other people.

In the middle of the hat, a doraemon wearing a bamboo dragonfly is sticking out its tongue mischievously. The upper body is a camel knitted turtleneck sweater with a white coat that is not zipped up.This jacket is in the same series as Chi Jingyuan's previous one, with a Pikachu's lightning tail logo printed on the chest.

Below are gray warm casual pants and sneakers with yellow bottom and black edges. The overall collocation is light-colored. The figure makes people unable to take their eyes off.

At the same time, the fat blue man on the hat and the light-colored clothes matched each other with a hilarious contrast, and it just happened to be snowing today, which seemed very suitable for the occasion.

Chi Jingyuan didn't stop at the door and walked in directly. Sitting on the sofa in the hall, he took out his mobile phone and pressed a few times to send a message. After a while, he saw Pei Zhuxuan trotting over.

Seeing Chi Jingyuan looking at her, Pei Zhuxuan smiled and waved at a distance of about ten meters, then sped up and ran to stand in front of him.

"Joo Hyun Xi." Chi Jingyuan looked at him and blinked.

"Jing Yuanxi!" Pei Zhuxuan also blinked at her.

The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time, Pei Zhuxuan covered her mouth and looked very bright.

Looking at Pei Zhuxuan who was close at hand, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but nodded in his heart.

Pei Zhuxuan had already finished her styling at this time, her slightly curly hair was tied into a ponytail and hung behind her head, and the ends of her hair came out mischievously, hanging in front of her shoulders and hanging down to her collarbone.

She was wearing a light-colored stage outfit similar to a cheerleading uniform, and a thick coat that was one size larger than hers. Although it looked warm at first glance, it was also a little funny.

The facial features are very three-dimensional under the makeup, the eyes are twinkling, the lips with lipstick are very crystal clear, and the exquisite melting makeup makes her face seem to be shining.

At this time, Pei Zhuxuan looked quite amazing to Chi Jingyuan, except that he felt that the other party's eye makeup was not very suitable.

Of course, this is only the case when looking at the face.

"very beautiful."

He sincerely praised it.

Sincere compliments from other people always make people feel good, not to mention Chi Jingyuan said it. Hearing that, Pei Zhuxuan smiled happily, stroked her hair and said briskly: "Let's go, I'll take you in, first go to the backstage to sit." After a while, Seulgi and the others will be there too."

"Nai, thank you senior, I haven't been here yet, I would probably get lost without your guidance."

Chi Jingyuan stood up and followed her, and within two steps, the two walked side by side.

"The company often holds trainee showcases here, and you, an airborne trainee, have never been here before."

Pei Zhuxuan turned her head to look at him, and said angrily. ,
Since the two got to know each other and became familiar with each other, she has been able to treat Chi Jingyuan's airborne attribute naturally.

Seeing Chi Jingyuan shrugging his shoulders with the appearance of "I am airborne, I am glorious", Pei Zhuxuan glanced at him reproachfully, straightened his waist and neck quietly, and raised his height by two cm, and then a smile appeared on his face again, and he asked a little embarrassedly: "Does the makeup look really good today?"

Is it good to see? She actually knows it very well, she just wants to listen to it again.

"Nei, it's nice to see."

Chi Jingyuan nodded, looked at her face while walking, and seriously commented: "It's really suitable for you, and it shows your facial features very well, but I don't think this kind of all-inclusive eye makeup is very good. suits you."

"Eye makeup..."

When Pei Zhuxuan heard this, she quickly took out her phone and took a photo with the darkened screen: "Cody said that this is the most popular eye makeup in recent years, and everyone else basically paints like this."

"I don't know about the others, but for Joohyun xi, I think this makeup will cover up some of the original agility of your eyes."

"Is it really agile? The teacher said that my eyes are quite rigid..."

Pei Zhuxuan first looked at her own eyes on the phone screen, then glanced at Chi Jingyuan with a smile: "Jing Yuanxi is really good at complimenting people."

"Maybe it's not a boast?"

Chi Jingyuan tilted his head and looked at her, and the two couldn't help laughing together.

After chatting for a few words, the two arrived at the door of the lounge, gently pushed open the door, and Pei Zhuxuan walked in with Chi Jingyuan.

The corridor outside the door was a bit deserted, but as soon as Chi Jingyuan entered, he felt a rush of heat and noise. This door seemed to separate two worlds.

There are quite a lot of people in the lounge, there are dozens of male and female trainees, plus cody who is doing styling, and staff from some company sitting in the corner, it is a large area for resting The room was packed to the brim.

After entering the door, Chi Jingyuan glanced roughly, but didn't have time to take a closer look, because he just walked in and saw Jiang Seqi standing there hopping, waving at him non-stop.

…………

"Ziyu, that beautiful trainee from SM is back, hey, why did he follow someone behind him, so he went to pick him up, it's strange that the trainees all came together, and they even wear a mask... Wait, this person I feel so familiar..."

Kong Xue has always been concerned about Pei Zhuxuan, she thinks this senior's face is really good-looking, even a girl finds it very seductive.

Seeing Pei Zhuxuan running out suddenly just now, Kong Xue was a little curious, but now seeing her coming back, she immediately shifted her attention, and soon her eyes were fixed on Chi Jingyuan.

Although she is a fan of the boys' group, she still devotes more enthusiasm to the hottest EXO nowadays. Even wearing a mask, she quickly recognized Chi Jingyuan, but she couldn't believe it.

"Ziyu..."

Kong Xue nudged Zhou Ziyu lightly with her elbow, pointed there and said hesitantly, "Do you think the boy wearing the mask looks like Yuan from EXO?"

"........."

Originally, Zhou Ziyu didn't pay much attention to the beautiful senior, but after hearing Kong Xue's words, she quickly glanced over and locked on Chi Jingyuan. After watching for a few seconds, her bright and energetic eyes widened suddenly. Opening his mouth slightly, he stared blankly over there.

…………

"Jing Yuan!"

As soon as Pei Zhuxuan and Chi Jingyuan entered the door, Jiang Seqi saw it. After the two entered, she squinted her eyes and greeted cheerfully.

After Chi Jingyuan approached, he narrowed his eyes and happily extended his right hand and shook it. The two of them smiled and clapped their hands hard.

"Why are you here so early? I thought you would arrive after the opening."

"I rushed over after running a schedule. I remember the show started at 7 o'clock, right?"

As Chi Jingyuan spoke, he took off his mask. Here are all the company's trainees, and there is no need to cover up like outside.

Taking off the mask, she felt that she was breathing much more normally. She looked Jiang Seulqi up and down, and said in surprise, "Why do I feel that you have grown a little taller? Is it my illusion?"

"Hey, I was discovered by you! Last time I measured my height, I found that I grew a little...does it seem obvious?"

Jiang Seulqi's cheeks were bulging when she smiled, and she looked very funny.

Pei Zhuxuan did not speak, and kept smiling to express that he would not participate in this topic.

The three sat on the sofa, Chi Jingyuan sat on the left side of the sofa, put the shoulder bag on his back in the middle, and took the initiative to keep a certain social distance from Pei Zhuxuan in the middle.

"I haven't seen you for a while, but it's quite obvious to meet again. You may not be able to see it when you get along every day..."

Chi Jingyuan nodded, then glanced around, and asked suspiciously: "Where is Shengwan? Didn't she come today..."

"Is it XO's Senior Yuan? Ah Jinjia, it's really Yuan!"

"omo..."

"Senior, Aniha Sai."

"Senior, Aniha Sai..."

Chi Jingyuan was interrupted before he finished speaking. He was quite eye-catching. After taking off his mask, the SM trainees sitting on the sofa next to him recognized him at a glance. They all showed surprise, some dared not He looked at it several times in confidence, and after confirming that it was him, he quickly got up and came over and bowed continuously.

Several of them were girls, and everyone's bows were standard, and their eyes were a little bright when they looked at him, and they all had the feeling that fans saw idols.

"Nai, Anihasay."

Chi Jingyuan, who was interrupted, saw a few trainees who suddenly approached, and immediately withdrew the casual smile when he was talking with Jiang Seulqi, and put a business smile on his face, nodding to them requite.

Speaking of the time when he entered SM, most of the trainees are actually earlier than Chi Jingyuan, but the seniority in the showbiz is still defined by the time when he debuted.

In the past, Chi Jingyuan’s reputation among trainees was not very good because of his airborne debut, but as time passed, especially after the explosion of EXO and “Roar”, his image and reputation have already been reversed. It has become the focus of discussion and admiration of many people.

Discussing the company's senior group is a topic that many trainees like in private, and EXO and Yuan are the two most frequently mentioned names.

The trainees from the nearby SM company also found out about Chi Jingyuan's arrival, and they all rushed over to salute and say hello with expressions of surprise. Chi Jingyuan was a little overwhelmed by the people who flocked to surround the city.

Before debuting as an artist and a trainee, if they were not close friends, there is a very clear and insurmountable boundary between them, so even though they belong to the same company, many people have never met Chi Jingyuan in real life .

What's more, Chi Jingyuan is still the leading actor in a popular drama, and his status as a popular actor has also opened up a clear gap between him and ordinary idols.

Seeing this EXO senior at such a close distance at this time, they all instantly felt the unmistakable sense of superiority under the contrast, as well as the unforgettable and impressive appearance and temperament.

Especially after being in the same frame as a few male trainees standing next to them who came to salute, many people found that the gap was so big that it was hard to describe.

With Chi Jingyuan's appearance in EXO, and even in the entire peninsula entertainment industry, few people can beat him. Even without makeup now, compared to them, he is really a bit of a bully...

Soon, the excitement here also attracted people from JYP, including Lin Nayeon and Yu Dingyan, the neon group next to them, etc. At this moment, all attention was focused on Ji Jingyuan.

They didn't come here specifically, they just stood up politely and saluted before sitting down, but their eyes were fixed on that side without moving.

"Yuan, Yuan from EXO."

"No way, why did he come here, to watch a showcase?"

"I don't know, but there are very few debut seniors who come to watch the trainee showcase..."

"Dingyan, don't you know him? Go say hello."

"I want to go too...but that's me, O'Neill knows him, and I don't."

"But he's really handsome. This is still without makeup... Sure enough, it's the same as the TV said, the real person is much better than the camera."

"I really want to get to know you..."

"........."

In an instant, Chi Jingyuan became the focus of discussion in the entire lounge. The trainees in twos and threes glanced at this side while discussing in a low voice, and the gathered voices immediately became noisy.

"Stop standing around here, go to your own seats."

Chi Jingyuan saw that the group of SM trainees had no tendency to leave around here, so he waved his hand actively to signal them to disperse.

He came to fulfill the agreement with Pei Zhuxuan to watch their performance, and also to meet up with friends whom he hadn't seen for a long time, not to flaunt his prestige in front of this group of trainees.

He has no interest in the latter.

"Your popularity is really high, it feels like we are all looked at differently."

Seeing that the surrounding people dispersed, but the attention still stayed here, Pei Zhuxuan, who was a little uncomfortable surrounded by people just now, exhaled and said something in a complicated tone.

"Even if I'm not around, isn't it a normal time to be looked at differently in terms of your senior and your appearance?"

Looking at her, Chi Jingyuan complimented her as a matter of course, causing Pei Zhuxuan to blink and pat him with a smile.

"Jingyuan, why are you called Senior Zhuxuan Ouni?" Jiang Seulqi looked at the two of them separately and asked a question.

"It's easy to say... By the way, I asked you just now, where is Shengwan?" Chi Jingyuan explained casually, and then looked around to find Sun Shengwan's figure.

"It's her turn to do the styling, she's putting on makeup over there, let me take you there..."

Jiang Seulqi pointed in the direction of the dressing table over there, it was seven or eight meters away from them, but it was very close to the resting place of JYP trainees.

At this time, the row of dressing tables was already full of people, and the Codys were seriously and nervously putting on makeup for them. Although the fluctuation just now had affected them, the work in their hands did not stop.

"Let's go and have a look, I haven't seen her for a long time."

Chi Jingyuan nodded, then stood up and followed Jiang Seulqi and walked over, Pei Zhuxuan also stopped behind and followed closely.

After walking a few steps, Chi Jingyuan arrived in front of the mirror of the dressing table, looked at the rather familiar face in the mirror, and shouted in surprise:
"Are you Sun Shengwan?"
