e parking lot on the first floor of JYP Building. JYP’s assigned staff were already waiting there.After getting off the car, Jiyeong realized that waiting for them wasn't just ordinary JYP employees,..."The audio will be released soon, remember to like it before listening to the song, and use the template format for comments that was sent before."

Although some people may have already listened to the leaked album, it's still important to stream it and keep the plays going! Make sure to push the audio data to number one today!

At five minutes to midnight on May 1st, Lin Chengxian was relentlessly reminding and directing in his active and led fan group.

This year, 25-year-old Lin Chengxian has been a fan of BIGBANG since the "Day by Day" era. She is considered a veteran fan because she comes from a good family and has a good job, so she has a lot of time to follow her idols.

Even though she's past the age most people typically stop being obsessed with idols, she remains active at the forefront of fandom. Aside from genuinely enjoying BIGBANG's music style, she feels a strange sense of destiny because her Korean name is identical to that of two members: Choi Seunghyun and Lee Seungri. It's as if fate has ordained her to be their fan.

For many years, she has been quite well-known among BIGBANG fans. She actively engages in various support activities and chart campaigns for her idol group with other fans (called VIPs). Naturally, this comeback by BIGBANG after a three-year hiatus was an event not to be missed. They had been preparing for it long before, and now the moment their new music is about to be released has finally arrived.

However, to be honest, even with the title "Big Bang" there, Lin Chengxian was still a little nervous. As someone active on the front lines of K-pop fandom, she knew very well the current level of popularity and hype surrounding EXO. In her opinion, even at Big Bang's peak a few years ago, it wasn't this intense. This is just her judgment with a bit of bias.

And the most frightening thing about EXO is their sales figures. The sales numbers for each album feel like they no longer belong to the K-pop landscape. No matter what period, Big Bang has difficulty catching up, and it's hard to even reach half of their numbers.

Needless to say, those idiots calling themselves Alice are a bunch of lunatics. They talk incessantly, have an obnoxious mouth, and there are so many of them. Lately, Lin Chengxian has been constantly arguing with them online, but unfortunately, he rarely comes out on top.

However, in the end, it's still up to each individual's performance to speak for itself. This is the best opportunity for that.

At this moment, close to midnight, the fan group where Lin Chengxian is located is extremely active, with messages flashing across the screen so rapidly that one can barely keep up.

"In three more minutes, I can't wait any longer."

I'm so happy you guys are satisfied. I got the leaked album yesterday and listened to it already. All I can say is that both songs are really good.

Has there been any news from EXO's side There must be people sneaking out over there too, right

"Yes, I don't know the specifics, but I heard that the songs from the Earth group this time are also pretty good..."

Album leaks refer to record stores that sell albums privately before the company-specified release date. This situation occurs almost every time an artist makes a comeback, but the quantity is usually very small.

"I checked, bigbang is number one on the daily chart of lon search for five consecutive days, it's really amazing! It proves that our passersby are still so large, many passersby are looking forward to the comeback of Oppa."

But Exo is always ranked second...

"Damn, they're everywhere!"

"It's released!"

As the clock struck midnight, EXO's "O" and BIGBANG's four songs were uploaded onto the website, with both audio and music videos available. After someone in the group exclaimed, the previously scrolling screen immediately fell silent.

Lin Chengxian also hurriedly clicked on the already lagging webpage, and at the first time he watched BIGBANG's latest single album " " two songs "loser" and "baebae"'s v.

Though satisfied, Lin Chengxian felt a lingering sense of excitement after finishing the album. She thought both songs were of high quality, well-produced and worthy of being a comeback single after three years. They lived up to her expectations.

Just as she was about to shower praise on the group in the chat, she hesitated. With the mindset of knowing her enemy and herself, she ran to s's official account and clicked on exo's profile. She watched LHT's V and listened to the included song "Orientation Sniper" again.

"” was fine, still the usual EXO style. V's acting was very handsome, especially the shot of Ji-sung turning his head made Lin Chengxian's heart skip a beat. He couldn't help but click the back button and rewound it several times."

Even though she disliked EXO, especially their fans, she had to admit that the group's visuals were undeniably stunning. She also understood why Park Chanyeol was so popular even within such a top-tier group.

Although she was relieved after watching the v, she thought the song was good but not particularly outstanding. Compared to the two main songs from two months ago, which she actually liked a lot - 《callbaby》and 《春日》- this one was quite a bit worse. It could only be considered a decent dance track, at least in her opinion it wasn't as good as 《loser》.

...just after I put it down and was listening to the song behind me, it involuntarily came up again.

You are my aim, my aim.

"You can tell just by looking, it's all over."

At the start of the first sentence, Chi Jingyuan’s languid singing voice and introduction immediately made Lin Chenxian pause.

This sound and melody are so touching, unexpectedly good.

"Oh oh, your gentle smile."

"Oh oh, and watching my eyes."

"It's perfect."

The entire song's breezy melody, lengthy magnetic rap verses, and sweet lyrics were right up her alley. Listening to it, she unconsciously felt her mood lift considerably, and memories of that person she'd once encountered, who she thought might be her soulmate, naturally surfaced in her mind.

After the joy, a faint sadness gradually rose in my heart, but it was not unpleasant. Instead, it further deepened and elevated my emotions.

So sweet, so refreshing, such a romantic song.

As the progress bar reached its end, the singing gradually faded away. Lin Chengxian stared at the prominent song title on the webpage, a little stunned.

Point Blank

So handsome……and the song title is so fitting.

She really thought the song title was so cool, it felt very special. She felt like her emotional core was being hit by a sniper rifle at that moment, a feeling she couldn't quite describe rising within her.

But then he thought of his mission as the eldest sister of the [p]fan club. Lin Chengxian pursed his lips and glanced at the song title, and below it, all the lyricists and composers were "yuan". After two seconds, his gaze quickly returned to the fan club.

It had already been ten minutes, and after the momentary silence in the chat group, it was now buzzing again at an extremely fast pace. Big Bang fans who had watched the video and listened to the song were excitedly expressing their joy and excitement.

"My ears are exploding! This is so good! I love the style of 《baebae》. "

"Loser" is also great, I think that with the quality of just these two songs, Big Bang's comeback can really take off and directly overshadow that group. Let those idiots who have been so arrogant for so long be humbled, it really makes me angry."

Has anyone heard the new song by [Band Name] What do you think of it

"Listen, to be honest, it's pretty good. The title track might be a little weaker than the last two months', but this included song "Aiming Sniper" is really good."

Lin Chengxian saw their chat and nodded in agreement, then began typing commands quickly: "Don't stop playing the song! The first day's listening volume must be kept high, and don't forget about the comment control. Although the quality of the songs in 《》 is better than expected, the other side's popularity isn't much lower than ours either. Currently, lon's online listening share is only slightly lower than ours. You all know how capable their fans are at brushing, sisters, don't underestimate them."

}

By 0:20 on May 1st, lon clearly displayed that Bigbang's "Loser", "Baebae", EXO's "LHT" and "Orient Sniper" occupied 94% of the entire chart's listening volume. The four songs had individual data of 26%, 24%, 22%, and 22% respectively.

This data is calculated by dividing the number of people currently listening to this song online by the total number of people currently online. This means that out of 100 people online right now, 94 are listening to these four songs.

All other songs together only account for six percent, which shows just how much attention and anticipation the rivalry between these two boy bands has generated.

"Loser" and "Baebae" by Lon broke records again! But "Orientation Sniper" also broke through..."

"With half an hour of being released, 《loser》 has almost 10,000 likes, but both songs from the other group also have around 8,000 likes, the data is very close."

Currently, on the top ten music charts, 《Loser》 has topped six charts, while being the number one song for other groups on four. However, the most prestigious chart is our very own.

Various charts of music show results keep appearing in the group chat, with Big Bang and EXO's sound sources battling fiercely on all lines under the support of fans and passersby. However, looking at the current situation, Big Bang's two songs still hold some advantages, which has put fans at ease.

Don't just listen to the music, remember to click on the v's on YouTube. Don't ever stop! YouTube clicks have always been our strength, but recently we were overtaken by the ground team. This time, we must get them back!Each achievement brought joy to Lin Chengxian's heart. He quickly typed and continued directing the crowd.

Because of their unique music style and distinctive , YouTube views have always been BIGBANG's strong suit. They are also the K-pop boy group with the most billion-view videos.

Although EXO still had some gap compared to other groups, even "Roar" didn't have a huge number of views on Vlive. However, since last year's "Dope," EXO's YouTube view counts, which were lagging behind other metrics, have been increasing at a visible rate. By last month with "Spring Day," it was no longer a weakness. "Spring Day" reached 20 million views in just 110 hours, successfully setting the record for the shortest time for a K-pop boy group to reach 20 million views on Vlive, making EXO one of the biggest YouTube channels among K-pop boy groups.

"Don't worry, oppa. I won't turn off my computer tonight, and the YouTube videos will be playing non-stop!"

"Yeah, we have to break the record for "Spring Day," and show those morons they can't just act so cocky every day."

"Don't be careless, we can brush up, but the other side is better at brushing than us. Don't forget what we've learned from our previous losses."

All the .p fans were pumped up because of their main's song quality and sound source results. Lin Chengxian was also very excited, after posting a few more times, he raised a key question in the group: “Although the advantage is not yet great, now it seems that we are leading in terms of sound sources, but besides sound sources, sales volume is equally important. Since today is the official release, every one of us core fans should buy at least five copies, pushing up the first-day sales as much as possible. After all, the price of a single album isn't expensive... pre-orders don't count.”

Lin Chengxian knows very well that good audio source is only one side of the coin. A band can't walk without a solid foundation on all sides; they must have outstanding achievements in every aspect.

Their own strength lies in their source material, which is currently ahead but not by much. However, sales are a strong point for the opposing side. Even if they can't win, the gap cannot be too large. If they fall behind too far, these girls will feel ashamed and unable to hold their heads up.

"Five should be fine, but will it be enough I have a good friend named Alice. She said that in their core group, everyone buys at least 10 tickets, and there's no upper limit."

“…………”

Seeing this, whether it's Lin Chengxian or others, they all fell silent. No matter whether they were willing to admit it or not, in terms of sales, no male group on the entire peninsula could compare to EXO. Being able to achieve half or even one-third of their sales would be considered top-tier for a male group.

I really don't know where those delusional fans get so much money and energy to buy albums, are they crazy

Also, why doesn't YG release a Chinese version of BIGBANG's albums too...

"By the way, who checked how much our and the Earth Band's presales are"

This was, in a fan group that had just suddenly become a little less lively, someone suddenly asked.

"..."

This question was like pulling the plug on other fans, the whole group suddenly went dark and there was no more flurry of comments. It took a while for someone to reply with a few hastily written words, even though it was just plain text, it still conveyed a sense of reluctance and impatience.

"As for physical copies, we have several tens of thousands, which is pretty good... Our digital sales are doing very well."

Where's the band

“...”

""

"...pre-sale, over five hundred thousand, that's their normal level."

"...

"

What is colder than desolation, it is silence.

……

After Fromis_9 released their audio and MV, the four songs of BigBang and EXO's comeback immediately became the focus of the entire Korean music scene. Many people who don't usually pay attention to Kpop couldn't help but click in to listen when they saw such a commotion. Some might have found it pleasing and started following the groups, while others might have thought it was average and dismissed it, but they still remembered the names of the two groups. Unconsciously, the entire market seems to have grown larger.

The well-prepared Aleis and .p crazily brushed charts, clicks, and listens for their idol from midnight until dawn. The battle was exceptionally intense.

However, with the factors of song quality and relatively objective listening and participation from the general public, the rankings on music charts have already become fairly clear. The hugely popular BIGBANG, with their debut single " ", placed two high-quality tracks, “loser” and “baebae,” in the top two positions on most music charts. EXO's "lht" and "Target Sniper" followed closely behind, ranking third and fourth respectively.

Even though there are some charts where XO leads, Big Bang falls behind.

Overall, Big Bang currently has the advantage in terms of audio sources, but EXO is not far behind, keeping up closely without falling behind.

Interestingly, in EXO's "O" album, the title track "LHT" hasn't received as high of praise. After all, a pure dance track is meant to be experienced with the stage performance. Conversely, the B-side track "Aiming for You" is gaining popularity and heat at an astonishing pace, surpassing the title track in both listens and hype. On some charts, it has even overtaken "LHT," landing at third or even first place.

The comments below are all very positive about the song's style, lyrics, melody, and title.

Especially the song title, after seeing this word, within a day, people online had already started to use it as a trendy catchphrase.

The source side has come up with a result for now, although the sales figures have not yet been released on the first day, because of the huge gap in pre-sales, .p actually no one is talking about it anymore.

On both sides, they have their own strengths and neither yields to the other. Now, many people are waiting to see which group will come out on top when these two groups first compete together on a music show.

Friday, May 1st, Golden Light Day.

Even before dawn, Ji-won got up from bed. He first went to a salon with the team for styling, and then, instead of taking the usual path to work with the members, he entered the KBS building alone through the back door employee passage.

He was really busy today. Besides being a fixed c for the first time and needing to have a meeting beforehand to confirm today's schedule, going through the script with his partner, backstage interviews with artists, and rehearsing for the announcement stage, he also needed to accept interviews, rehearse, and pre-record the two comeback stages as an exo member.

He started working as soon as he stepped into the building today.

As fans who were squatting outside the KBS building noticed that EXO had come to work but they didn't see Yuan, Ji-young was already in the meeting room of the "Music Bank" program team and started a meeting with PDs and creators. They confirmed today's workflow and key points, then checked the script with Seulgi.

All interactions and dialogues are actually designed by the writers beforehand, but these things can only roughly outline a framework. The specific expression and effect still depend on the tacit understanding between池景源 and 裴珠泫, and whether their performance is in place, whether they can show the kind of sweetness, ambiguity that is not greasy and repulsive that the program team and PD need.

"Loser, loner, cowardly show-off."

"A villain of wretched character, the reflection staring back at you."

After the script was almost finished, they took a short break. Ji Jingyuan sat on a small sofa in the standby room, with his legs crossed and one leg propped up on the other. He watched as the writer marked several important parts of the script and hummed softly to himself.

"How do you sing Big Bang's songs You guys are competing so fiercely now." Sitting on the same sofa, about half a meter apart, Park Soo-hyuk heard this and raised her head, shifting her gaze from the script in her hands to Park Ji-young. She looked at him curiously and said.

Since recording hadn't started yet, Park Soo-hyun was wearing casual clothes. A light-colored hoodie with a cute big bear graphic was worn in the middle, paired with jeans and sneakers, giving off a lively and natural feel. She looked much younger overall.

"That sounds good, I really like this song."

Chi Jingyuan and she looked at each other, nonchalantly shrugged their shoulders, then retracted their gaze and nodded slightly, humming Big Bang's "Loser" with a contented expression.

He really likes this song. He thinks the melody is very good and has a unique characteristic.

It's not just fans, actually EXO members are also very concerned about the results of this clash between the two male groups. Yesterday at 12:00 AM, everyone who returned to their dorm first listened to Big Bang's two songs and gave their opinions, both subjective and objective, with a mix of praise and criticism.

However, Chi Jingyuan actually gave quite good reviews to both songs, and really liked this song "Loser".

"You and I seem to be set, becoming the tragic clowns being mocked in the play..."

He lightly tapped his head and hummed a tune contentedly, only to be interrupted halfway through by a hand on his shoulder from the person next to him, Park Chae-hyun.

"No, don't sing that song. It sounds weird. Sing something else with me." Her gaze met his, and Bae Joo-hyun lightly wrinkled her nose, giving him a reproachful look. The script she had been holding in her hands the whole time was now clenched to her side.

"What are you singing" Chi Jingyuan pursed his lips and raised his chin to indicate okay, leaning against the sofa and casually asking.

"...

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

Seeing this, Pei Zhuhyun glanced at the assistant and staff sitting in the corner of the resting room, acting as invisible people, smiled, withdrew his gaze from their faces, and began to hum softly: "You are my orientation sniper, my orientation sniper."

As soon as Pool Jingyuan heard the familiar melody, he paused and looked at Pei Zhuxuan, who was singing the song very skillfully. The song had just been released less than eight hours ago. He smiled knowingly and gently followed the other person's rhythm, tapping his foot lightly while humming along in a low voice.

Sneakers on slender ankles, perfectly matched with blue skinny jeans...

At this point, Ji Jingyuan couldn't help but glance up and down at the other person. As if noticing his gaze, Pei Zhuhyun glared at him and shifted her position by moving her legs.

Their voices, though not loud, blended well together, complementing each other with perfect harmony. Under the lighthearted melody of "Aiming Assault," the very air around them seemed to take on a vibrant and lively hue.

"How did you come up with this song title"

The song ended quickly, and the two of them still had a lot to do. Seeing the staff waving over there, Pei Zhuxuan stopped humming and tilted her head slightly, her moist eyes staring at Ji Jingyuan.

"... "

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

Seeing the other person's eyes, Ji Jingyuan knew what Pei Zhuhyun was thinking, or rather, knew what she wanted to hear.

As he stood up from the sofa, he blinked at her eyes: "If I said it was inspired by the song title you came up with, would you be happy"

"Cheater!"

"Let's go!"

The expected smile didn't appear, Pei Zhuhyun glanced at him with a snort, walked behind him and in the absence of anyone noticing, lightly patted Chi Jingyuan's butt, left a word of urging and directly walked past him towards the staff who beckoned her.

At first glance, she walked with light steps, seemingly in high spirits. Her slightly raised buttocks swayed as she walked, and a familiar humming could be faintly heard from ahead.
