ung-ro in Gangnam District, and it is surrounded by the area of Cheongdam-dong. 。And there are several schools around Cheongdam-dong, including Cheongdam Elementary School, Cheongdam Middle School, an..."Yuanxi, right now, out of all the female idols you've come across, is there anyone who fits your ideal type The kind that truly resonates with you"

"There's nothing... it really never happened."

What kind of person is your ideal type

"At least... some of them have the same kind of love, right"

Minami sat cross-legged in the corner of the practice room, holding her phone and watching a special episode of "Golden Fishery" featuring EXO-K that had aired recently. A light smile played on her sweaty face.

"...Besides, Momoko Iwai poked her head over to take a peek at the screen for a few seconds before returning and scoffing, "Why are you watching this again Didn't you already watch it when it first aired"

"Bored. What are you doing"

Naomi leaned back slightly, smiling as she brushed her hair up with her hand. She then lifted her gaze to the white lights on the ceiling of the practice room, appearing lost in thought.

After a few seconds, she suddenly turned her head and looked over: "By the way, what are Chi Jingyuan's hobbies"

"Pool Jingyuan So straightforward, why don't you call me Senior Yuan" Ping Wei Tao giggled and glanced at her.

"I don't want to shout anymore."

Naomi Nozawa lightly wrinkled her nose.

She laughed again and said naturally, "Don't you know He seems to really like our Japanese anime. There are a lot of fans online who have taken pictures of his private clothes, many of which are Pokémon themed limited editions, some of which are very rare and not sold on the market.

"Even paparazzi at the airport for EXO are like that, it's common knowledge among EXO fans."

"Me too," Namiki Minami said with a half-smile, her eyes slightly narrowed. She pursed her lips and smiled, looking both pleased and slightly embarrassed.

"...Ping Jingtao glanced at her silently, speechless. She didn't know what to say to this friend who was a little obsessed. After thinking for a moment, she added, "Oh, right, some variety shows I watched also said Yuan really likes playing games, and it seems like they prefer games on consoles like PSP and 3DS."

"I like him too! What does he usually play" Nanami Minase smiled happily, showing her teeth.

"I don't know, you can try looking online, maybe on fancb. His fans might know, yuan fans are all very resourceful."

"I'm going to look around..."

"If you say so, then do it," Nami Minai picked up her phone and skillfully tapped into a fan club of Chi Jingyuan, a fairly well-known one. She began to browse through it for about ten minutes before she unconsciously furrowed her brows:

Ping Jingtao stared straight at her phone, pretending not to hear.

"Found it!"

After a few more minutes, Nanami Minase suddenly let out a little cry, excitedly patted Momoko Hina, and read out loud from her phone:

"yuan's fan club couldn't find any relevant content, I found it from a fan's post in sehun's fancb, saying that sicheng once complained to a fan before that jiang yuan always likes to play games in the waiting room during music show, he wouldn't bother participating if it wasn't something he was interested in."

Then Momoi also leaned in to look at her phone.

Then fans took the opportunity to ask him what games he liked, and Sehun mentioned several titles, saying that he enjoys playing Monster Hunter, Pokemon, Super Mario, and similar games.

His voice was a bit excited, getting happier towards the end: "They're all games I like. It seems like I'm the ideal type that Chi Jingyuan hasn't met."

At the end of her speech, she couldn't help but cover half her face with her hand, blushing and swaying her body back and forth.

Hiromi's eyes were wide and vacant as she stared at Nanami, almost like she was looking at a patient. She kept staring until even Nanami herself felt embarrassed. With disdain, she said: "I see you playing Mario, but I never saw you play the first two..."

"Still dreaming about your ideal type People probably have forgotten who you are by now. Don't be delusional."

"Her innocent fantasy was shattered ruthlessly. Minami looked at her with an air of displeasure, her voice soft and complaining: “You're not even thinking realistically.”

"Then hurry up and think about it." Momoko Higashi looked at the time. "In ten minutes we'll have to go to class, you can still be 'Kei Gen's ideal type' for ten minutes."

"Ten minutes is ten minutes... and who said I can only think about it now, I'll think about it again when I get home tonight!"

…………

On the evening of June 12th, EXO departed from Incheon International Airport in Seoul with their team aboard a chartered flight headed for Jiangcheng, China. After a three-hour flight, they landed after eleven o'clock. By the time the members had completed the necessary procedures and exited the airport with their luggage, it was almost morning.

"Ahhhh......"

"Oh no!

"

">

"Berhyeon, Chanle!"

"Yuan, look at me, Yuan!"

"Ahhhh, Jin Tan…"

To their surprise, there were still fans waiting outside the airport at this late hour. As soon as they stepped out, they immediately heard a chorus of cheers.

Although the number wasn't large, everyone's eyes were filled with excitement and fanaticism. When EXO's members walked out, they frantically waved their posters and banners, shouting their names loudly.

Chi Jingyuan actually still heard someone calling 'Jin Tan', he smiled wryly and sighed in his heart.

Although "The Heirs" has ended airing for over half a year, fans are still very much in love with his role. It seems that Xia Guo's fans truly have long memories.

Faced with such enthusiastic fans,池景源 was somewhat moved. He took out his phone to check the time, then quickly walked to the front and called out to 李承煥, pointing at the crowd of fans and whispering a few words. 李承煥 looked at the group of fans, which wasn't that large, pondered for a moment, and then nodded.

Lee Seung-hwan turned back to greet the members, giving them a few instructions. The members happily nodded in agreement, handing the gifts over to an assistant standing nearby, and then followed Ji-seong together.

Seeing EXO's members walking toward them, this group of fans who came to pick them up all looked unbelievable and covered their mouths. Their expressions were both excited and nervous, and several couldn't help but scream out loud.

"What are you still doing here this late"

Chi Jingyuan walked to the fence and took a autograph book from a fan. He began signing it with his own ballpoint pen, smiling at them as if they were friends. He chatted with them casually in Summer dialect.

Oh my god, yuan!

After hearing Ji Jingyuan's voice, they were stunned for a moment, as if they had heard wrong. After a few seconds, they reacted and started shouting excitedly.

“Xia Wen’s words were really great…” There were also many such exclamations, and many people quickly took out their phones to take pictures of him.

The other members also started laughing and signing for fans one by one. Except for Xia Guo Le, the others naturally couldn't communicate as freely as Ji Jingyuan.

My excitement was hard to contain, I let out a scream to release it. However, these fans quickly realized the opportunity was rare and couldn't be wasted. They held back their tsunami-like emotions as best they could, replying in trembling voices: "Because the news said that xo's oppa are coming here today, we planet fans definitely have to come pick them up, no matter how late."

“It’s really nice to see you all……” After signing a notebook, Ji Jingyuan returned it and then took over a fan's *Overdose* summer version album. He smiled at her and continued as he signed: “But won’t your parents worry about you staying out so late”

I've come up with an excuse, saying I'm going to sleep at a classmate's place today...

I told them my parents are very supportive of me.

"I ran out of school..."

The people in front of him were chattering away, eager to answer as if the moment they fell silent, Ji Jingyuan wouldn't hear them anymore.

“This won’t do, although I appreciate your support, it’s best to get your parents' permission next time.” Ji Jingyuan looked at them seriously and said, then looked at the fan who ‘skipped school’ and solemnly warned: "You can't do this again, even for EXO, we wouldn't be happy."

"I understand." The young female diner obediently replied, her bright eyes fixed on Ji Jingyuan.

"Yuan oppa, I also really like Pokémon. What do you think is better, Squirtle or Charizard"

“We are talking in Xia language, why do you use the term 'oppa'”

"Hee hee..."

"Hmm…" Chi Jingyuan raised his eyes and thought for a moment, then looked at the person asking the question very seriously and answered: "Water Turtle. I prefer the family of Jenny turtles, and water beats fire, right"

"Oppa, when will you act in a TV drama again"

It's mostly about the script, and I've been quite busy lately...

"...."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

After a few natural conversations, the fans' moods calmed down quite a bit. Looking at Ji-won, who was standing in front of them, signing and talking, a very strange feeling filled their bodies. Everyone felt warm and fuzzy.

I am very happy.

By the end, Chi Jingyuan had finished signing the last few items. He scanned his surroundings and asked with a hint of concern, "It should be past bus time now, how are you guys getting back"

"We all came here by chartered bus, Oppa, don't worry!"

"Okay then, go back early tonight and be careful."

Pool Jingyuan nodded upon hearing this, smiled at them and then turned back. At this time, some other members of EXO had already finished signing and left.

Ji Jingyuan walked halfway and then turned back to glance at the crowd of eyes staring at him. He smiled knowingly, waved his hand, opened his mouth but made no sound, and mouthed a "goodbye" to them. Many fans witnessing this scene burst into tears, covering their mouths as they watched Ji Jingyuan and EXO leave.

Today's pick-up activity really left a deep impression on them, an impression they probably won't forget for many years.

Not until he boarded the company-rented bus, leaning out the window and waving goodbye to the fans who were still reluctant to part with him, did the trip truly come to an end.

"You're really spoiling your fans, aren't you" Sitting down, Wu Shixun turned his head and said to him with a hint of surprise.

"Isn't that supposed to be the case" Ji Jingyuan took out his phone to check the news and glanced at him slantingly: "Do you think everyone is the same as you"

"Oh, what are you talking about I'm also a fan favorite, right I just saw that someone was still here picking me up so late, and I wanted to tell Chenghuan ge to sign autographs for the fans. But I was afraid he wouldn't agree, you think I'm you"

Wu Shih-hsuan, upon hearing this, was quite indignant. He quickly launched into a lengthy explanation, as if trying to prove the validity of his words. He then added with a touch of provocation: "If you don't believe me, go check my social media. See how many interactions I've had with commenters these days. People who don't even glance at others' comments have the audacity to say this about me"

As soon as Chi Jingyuan heard it, he instinctively opened and went to his own page. He held up the screen with a serious expression.

"What's sour Who said I don't watch"

"I am watching it right now!"

…………

After a simple press conference on June 13th, EXO held their first concert in China with Xia domestically on June 14th at the Duankou Sports Stadium in Jiangcheng. The venue, which had a capacity of 16,000, was completely sold out.

This is the first time EXO has held a performance in mainland China. Given EXO's popularity, tickets were naturally in high demand. They sold out within seconds of being released. Online and fan forums are filled with pleas for tickets, and scalpers are starting to get excited.

The official ticket prices for EXO's mainland concert are basically fixed. Prices range from 680 yuan to 1280 yuan, covering seats from the top viewing stands to the super front-row positions close to the stage. To be honest, this price isn't expensive at all; it's already a relatively reasonable price compared to other concerts.

It's mainly because there are too many fans and not enough tickets, making it extremely difficult to get them. Moreover, the mainland ticketing company partnered with S likely reserved a portion of the tickets. Coupled with the rampant activities of scalpers, the proportion of audience members who managed to obtain concert tickets at the official price is relatively low.

Back then, during the Seoul leg of the tour, some prime seats in the front row were inflated to eighteen times their original price. This time around in Gwangju, it's a similar story. I heard that scalpers have driven up prices for some seats to twenty times the original cost, which is outrageous.

Surprisingly, there are quite a few people who actually want it.

But there's nothing s can do about it. Scalping tickets is really hard to avoid and impossible to eliminate.

This time at the performance, several family members of EXO's Chinese members were also present. After greeting all the members backstage and chatting happily, they took their children out to talk privately.

Chi Jingyuan discovered that several members of the Xia Guo le group had pretty good family backgrounds, especially Tao's parents. Their clothes and accessories were obviously very expensive.

No wonder Tao was able to afford a 2014 Maserati just two years after his debut.

Before buying a car, he also showed off to the members in a small way. According to time, he should be the first member of EXO to drive this kind of luxury sedan.

It's not that the other members can't afford it, it's just that they haven't acted or don't want to be so high-profile...

As for Chi Jingyuan, he doesn't have a driver's license yet.

Thinking about this, Chi Jingyuan decided to take some time recently to get his driver's license before talking further.

This concert went very smoothly. The accident at the Hong Kong leg before made s pay more attention to safety work. Before the performance began, someone was specifically sent to check all the equipment again.

To be honest, I've been using Wild Fruit to read books and catch up lately. It has multiple sources, voiceovers with different tones, and is compatible with both Android and Apple devices.

The fans of Xia Guo were also very enthusiastic, the atmosphere was hot throughout the venue and the screams that echoed through the stadium from beginning to end were even better than those of the Peninsula fans, which made all the members of EXO enjoy and immerse themselves in it, and their mood was also uplifted along with the fans.

Maybe because all the parents were there, the three members of Summer Nation showed a lot more excitement. Not only did their dancing movements become more forceful, but their spirits were also much higher than before. During the several chat segments in between, they were clearly very excited, holding the microphone and speaking for a long time about their feelings. Even though they had already gone over the time limit, they seemed to want more.

There is a feeling of shyness when thinking about going home.

After the concert, on the 15th when it was time to return home, Ji Jingyuan didn't go back to the Peninsula with the members. Instead, he flew directly to Shanghai with the team. The staff there from s and lg had been waiting for a long time.

After several months of probing, weighing and discussions, both sides finally reached an agreement a few days ago. LG formally invited Chi Jingyuan to be the spokesperson for all LG electronics products, including TVs, audio equipment, mobile devices, home appliances, etc.

LG has been very optimistic about Park Ji-won from the beginning. After "The Heirs" became a huge hit in Asia, they put him at the top of their candidate list and showed sincerity in several rounds of negotiations.

They value Park Ji-won so much because, in addition to his recent surge in popularity due to the hit drama "The Heirs" and his status as a high-profile member of EXO, he enjoys widespread recognition and acclaim throughout most of Asia, including the Korean peninsula, China, Southeast Asia, and beyond. But more importantly, they understand Park Ji-won's inherent potential and believe that under their guidance, he will continue to flourish and avoid any pitfalls that could derail his career.

The contract has been signed, but both sides have yet to make it public. LG will officially announce this news before the product launch event originally scheduled for June 17th in Shanghai, and Park Ji-young will also be present to promote it that day.

** Entertainment places great importance on this endorsement deal with LG. It's not just about the direct financial benefits, but also about enhancing the image of both the company and EXO. For this event, ** sent a dedicated team from the Peninsula to assist Kai in the press conference. The company is also committed to investing heavily in resources to support LG's promotional efforts.

This is a very important top-tier endorsement, the first time Chi Jingyuan has received it since his debut. Although he wasn't very nervous, he did take it very seriously. After arriving in Shanghai, he learned a lot of relevant knowledge with the staff from both sides and made a lot of preparations.

And after this press conference, he will immediately return to the peninsula to film a series of advertisements for products under LG. It's a huge workload.

On June 17th, Chi Jingyuan appeared at the LG Electronics product launch event alongside LG's Summer Country Region President Lee Sang-yong. This boosted the atmosphere of the event to a high point. During an interview with the media, Lee Sang-yong highly praised Chi Jingyuan: "LG's strategy for all products is positive and high-end, including washing machines, refrigerators, mobile phones, and TVs. Chi Jingyuan's personal image is also high-end and very suitable for LG's overall image."

"Due to his high popularity and influence in both the Peninsula and Xia Nation, after discussion we ultimately decided to invite Chi Jingyuan as the spokesperson for our entire product line."

"Previously, Jingyuan portrayed a very high-end image in "The Heirs," making him the most suitable spokesperson for our LG."

Chi Jingyuan stood beside ***, smiling at the camera and reporters. He listened as they showered him with praise.

He didn't even give *** money, although lg is indeed very optimistic about him. When they met before, Park Jung-won was also very polite, but it's not that exaggerated, right

Even he himself felt a little embarrassed.

Meanwhile, LG and S officially announced that Ji-yuan Li has become the spokesperson for the entire line of LG electronics products. Promotions were conducted to varying degrees in both the Peninsula and Xia Kingdom.

Within the scope of Xia Guo, Park Seo-joon's popularity has indeed risen significantly due to his roles in "exo" and "The Heirs." Moreover, his appearance at the New Year's Eve party earlier this year further boosted his fame to a considerable extent.

And the peninsula itself is a stronghold for LG and S, with both companies going all out in their promotions.

Although Chi Jingyuan is very popular now, in this place called Peninsula which values seniority and hierarchy quite a bit, his current status, experience, and age are still a little lacking.

This marks the first time LG has invited a celebrity to be the overall brand image spokesperson. While they previously had Hyun Bin as a spokesperson for their phones, it was only for a single product. This collaboration with a full-line brand is fundamentally different.

Although no one knows exactly how he did it, the fact that he was able to land a full-line endorsement deal with LG, a brand of such high stature, naturally made many people on the peninsula look at Park Jeong-won in a new light. It subtly elevated his standing and status.

No matter what, with market certification, the support and backing of a big company, coupled with his already excellent public image, public perception of Park Jung-seon immediately rose to a new level. This is an effect that even selling millions of albums or starring in a hit TV drama couldn't achieve. It's as if LG used its own image and popularity to elevate Park Jung-seon to a higher tier.

This is also a big reason why so many artists on the peninsula strive for high-end endorsements. If an idol receives a top brand or luxury endorsement, their status instantly elevates, pulling them apart from ordinary idols in terms of class and prestige.

And EXO's fans are naturally drumming and celebrating with joy.

They have been running rampant online for the past year. Because of EXO's popularity and achievements, they've always come out on top in competition or feuds with other groups. Their fighting power is truly remarkable.

Fan communities because of their unconditional and sometimes blind support and love for idols, coupled with their relatively young age, have always been an easily excited and prone to conflict group. Countless idol fan groups on the peninsula are constantly arguing online, never stopping.

They compare their idols' achievements in everything from music streaming and sales to looks, charisma, and endorsements. They compare absolutely everything.

Some people speak directly, while others are more subtle and indirect.

And now that Chi Jingyuan has received the top spot, he has even provided them with an extremely sharp weapon when facing verbal confrontations with fans of other boy groups:

Let's not talk about album sales, that would be unfair to you... What kind of endorsements does your family have

"Why aren't you speaking Scared Playing dead Nothing, just wait for me to check…"

"Oh...student milk Heh heh heh, pretty impressive. By the way, have you heard of LG"

"%%ap;Damn it ap;%……” At this time, fans of the family were speechless, and more importantly, they became angry and started cursing.

But if they panic, it means they've lost.

This kind of gap between idols, like a dimensional wall, naturally made the planet fans overjoyed and invincible in battle.

But before they could be happy for two days, a bombshell news that would shock every star chaser suddenly broke.

On the morning of June 19th, Peninsula media suddenly broke the news that popular EXO member Baekhyun and RABOW member Kim Jisoo were dating. The two have been in a relationship for over four months since February this year.

After more than two years of debut, EXO, whose momentum was rising rapidly and was just one step away from the top, suddenly broke out with news of a member's love affair, instantly leaving fans who were previously triumphant speechless.

As the saying goes, "When joy reaches its peak, sadness inevitably follows."
