t let yourself look fat and bloated on camera. Wait until after the ceremony is over before you have a good meal.""That's it.""We can talk about the rest at the hotel." Lee Seong-hwan nodded and sat...This time at the "Odd Olympics," EXO brought a lot of members, adding up to 8 participants including Ji-sung Park.
This time around, their treatment was completely different from the last time they appeared. At the beginning of the year, in that episode, everyone except Ji-seong had very few camera shots. If it wasn't for the members constantly trying to get screen time, I bet viewers who watched the entire show wouldn't even know EXO participated in that episode.
But this time, EXO was at its peak. The program crew clearly favored them, as all members signed up for many segments and didn't need to scramble for screen time anymore. Because there were always VJs filming around them, the experiences differed greatly depending on popularity.
The audience was also heavily populated by EXO fans, taking up more than a third of the seats and forming a large square. At a glance, it was all EXO banners and nameplates.
How did you do this time How many gold medals did you win
After the greetings were finished, since the archery field was still preparing for filming and hadn't started yet, the members just sat there and chatted.
"Don't even mention it, my grades are average at best. I barely managed to win a gold medal in the relay race, but then they disqualified us for a rule violation. It's infuriating!"
Luhan's expression doesn't seem too good. Although he looks more gentle, his personality is quite strong.
"Cancelled Why"
"...it's not because of Bo-hyun It's a relay race, he took the baton and just ran, after being caught on camera he was directly penalized for a violation. We actually had a big advantage, even if he crawled over we would have definitely come in first, it's really..."
"Hehehe..."
Border Chen smiled awkwardly, his expression weak and looked very interesting.
Originally, there were a lot of smaller groups wanting to get on camera because EXO had a VJ filming them. They kept hanging around the area where they were shooting because it was crowded with fans.
After Ji Jingyuan arrived, many female idols' eyes kept glancing over here from time to time, making this place the center of everyone's attention.
Before they could chat for a few sentences, the archery field was set up. The first to start filming was the men's archery event.
This time, it's still the men's team competition. The three members of EXO who participated are a joint team of Park Kyung-sun, Kim Jun-myeon, and Henry.
As one of the ace members of EXO for the Lunar New Year special, Kim Jun Myeon, with his own efforts, successfully brought EXO into a decisive game under the good situation created by Ji-sung's opening game at Cheon Lake. His contribution was remarkable, and this time, he naturally donned his armor once again.
Henry participated in this season of "Idol Sports Championship" as it required some promotion upon his return. He is quite confident in archery, so after discussion, the company formed a joint team for him to participate in the recording.
Chi Jingyuan and Henrry had met several times before and had each other's contact information, so they were already quite familiar. They greeted each other with a smile and started chatting happily.
When the archery competition started, all the idols moved over and gathered around, each with an umbrella shielding themselves from the sun. They sat there watching, whispering amongst themselves.
Under the greeting of staff, idols participating in the competition gathered together, ready to officially start recording.
When Ji Jingyuan passed by a few people, he slammed into Jeong Eundi's outstretched hand hard, making a crisp sound that made everyone wince in pain.
"Oh!" Ji-sung ran off after finishing the sprint, only to hear a snort of anger from Jung Eun-ji and giggles from the other members behind him.
This time, there are also a lot of girl groups participating in Oyun. 池景源 just glanced around and saw many familiar faces, such as apk, girlsday, AOA, and MissA.
Today, Suzy also joined the recording. Although Miss A participated in the first episode of the year, Suzy didn't come because she was filming a drama.
When Pool Jingyuan looked over, Bae Suzy smiled at him and waved.
And Chi Jingyuan also nodded in acknowledgement, without saying much, and directly began recording the archery program.
The rules for the team competition remained the same. Pool Jingyuan was the last to appear in the team, and after Henry and Kim Junmyeon finished their shots, EXO fell behind by a large margin with a dismal score.
Ji Jingyuan walked out holding a compound bow, just about to take aim when a staff member suddenly ran over and whispered to Ji Jingyuan, "Jingyuan xi, the PD said please take off your hat before shooting."
"Um, inside."
Pool's shot was as graceful as ever. He took off his baseball cap and handed it to Kim Junmyeon beside him. Then, standing straight with a focused gaze, he drew back his bow and let the arrow fly, hitting bullseyes four times in a row, pulling EXO back from the brink of elimination.
As soon as Chi Jingyuan made his appearance, the cheers from the audience never stopped. When he hit ten bullseyes in a row and was shown on the big screen, the screams reached their peak.
After two consecutive rounds of competition, Ji Jingyuan and his two teammates continued to perform steadily, stumblingly defeating the final opponent and defending their gold medal.
"As expected, Yuan's 100% accuracy rate remains unbroken. EXO once again defends their gold medal, becoming the absolute ruler of the men's archery event since the start of the "Idol Olympics"! "
When EXO received the award, the commentators went wild, non-stop hyping them up.
After receiving his medal and a brief interview, Ji Jingyuan's shooting mission was complete.
He smiled and chatted with a few teammates for a couple of minutes before saying goodbye, putting on his hat and preparing to leave the stadium.
He hadn't taken a few steps when he stopped, because a figure in a pink tracksuit appeared in front of him out of nowhere, as if waiting there on purpose.
"I wish your drama a great premiere!" Pei Suzy stood there, smiling brightly, revealing her white teeth, and gave a slight bow to Ji Kyeong-won.
"In, Konsangmidta."
Qi Jingyuan returned a reply, at the same time shifting his gaze to look over.
She was very tall, almost 1.7 meters, with a large frame but a well-proportioned figure. She wore a sports hat over her head for sun protection, and like Ji Jingyuan, she had long chestnut hair that fell from her neck in two strands on either side of her face. Up close, her lightly made-up face was quite pretty.
"Don't be so polite, we still have a collaboration project going on, right"
Pei Suzy brushed her hair back and looked at Ji-won, whose face was half obscured by the shadow of his hat. Her eyes flickered, then she asked, "Ji-won xi, do you know when the cooperation project will start"
"The company didn't tell me, but it should have started around the end of the year..."
Chi Jingyuan thought for a moment and estimated a timeframe.
Around that time, EXO was at the peak of their popularity and economic benefits were highest. Also during those days, Park Kyung-won was filming and didn't have time to collaborate.
And I heard that the company seems to have another plan, it seems EXO will make a comeback at the end of the year again. The plan is still under discussion, but the news has already spread, and it's estimated that it will be confirmed in the next two days. Then things will be even busier.
Cooperation with Suzy Bae will definitely have to wait until these things are settled, the earliest it can be done is by the end of December.
"Inside, I also estimated that it should be this time... Actually, I'm really looking forward to working with Jingyuan xi."
Pei Suzy looked into Ji Kyung Won's eyes and said something, revealing a clear admiration. She was graceful and composed, without any feeling of embarrassment.
"I'm looking forward to it too, Suzy is really pretty."
Chi Jingyuan returned the favor and complimented him.
Then just wait for the plan to be launched, Fight!
"Fighting!"
After a brief exchange of words and mutual encouragement, Ji Kyeong-won and Suzy bid each other farewell. Ji Kyeong-won lowered his head and hurried toward the exit, while Suzy waited for two seconds before looking back at him. After glancing at his departing figure, she returned to her Miss A group.
Ji Jingyuan didn't notice that as he left, many people's eyes were on him, their expressions varying.
This "Odd Games" was a flash in the pan. Pool Jingyuan came and left quickly, participating for less than an hour, yet it became a hot topic of discussion among everyone.
