management over them loosened. Basically, recently the company hasn’t managed their private lives much at all.Especially today, since they have been debuting for six years, next year will be their co..."I have to go on stage soon, so I'll talk to you later."

After replying to a message, Chi Jingyuan put his phone back in his bag. He adjusted his clothes in the mirror and then walked out behind the queue.

This singing outfit, Chi Jingyuan's, is truly indescribable. Whether it's styled or not, it's just ugly.

Walking at the end of the line, Ki-yeong casually looked around at the scenery.

Today is September 30th, Mid-Autumn Festival.

They are currently at KBS TV station, and a few members of Team K are about to go on stage to record a special Chuseok episode of the show, performing "MAMA".

The last message was a reply to Sun Na-eun.

It has been over twenty days since they first met in the car. After the TV drama wrapped up, Chi Jingyuan had a little more free time and made several attempts to make plans with her.

But each time isn't long.

According to Sun Na-eun, her company has also been in contact with some production crews recently, hoping to get her a supporting role to gain more experience.

The last time we met was a week ago, and Apk is not returning anytime soon. There's no need to sing now, so even the singing program that used to be a chance for idol couples to meet weekly has lost its purpose.

Although they haven't met face-to-face, Sun Na-eun seems quite positive. She constantly sends messages whenever she has free time, sometimes even sending blank messages when she doesn't know what to say.

She's quiet in private too, not very talkative, not nearly as good at making conversation as Jung Eon-ji.

So sometimes there would be awkward silences on the phone, but Son Na-eun would always make time to call, even if she didn't say a word, she would just silently listen to Ji-yeong's breathing.

Chi Jingyuan remembered some things, and couldn't help but purse his lips.

"Girlfriend"

As Wu Shixun walked in front of the pond, he slowed his pace and leaned in close to him, asking softly.

Chi Jingyuan glanced at him, said nothing, but his meaning was conveyed through his eyes: 'How do you know'

Wu Shixun gave a knowing smile and patted Chi Jingyuan's shoulder, looking like he understood.

He didn't ask who it was, and with a smile he gestured towards Chi Jingyuan, then quickened his pace to catch up with the group ahead.

It seems like Wu Shixun just wants to confirm if 'I am not alone on my path' is true.

This kid has only been quiet for a few months after his debut, it seems like he's starting to go back to his trainee days again.

But even Chi Jingyuan had no right to say anything, since his two older brothers didn't speak.

……

This Mid-Autumn Festival special's stage setup is quite interesting. There are a dozen or so judge seats set up at the back of the stage, with one person seated at each. From the back of the stage, the judges can watch the performance.

This stage setup is very similar to a blind date show in China, I wonder if they got the idea from there.

Anyway, after Chi Jingyuan went on stage, he seemed very awkward. I wonder what the judges in the audience could see from behind.

After finishing recording, they left KBS and headed to Seoul's Jamsil Olympic Stadium. Tomorrow there will be an **TOWN family concert held here.

EXO will be performing on stage, and the song they'll be performing is naturally "MAMA".

Besides, several members will also perform on stage with some senior artists in collaboration. Pool Kyung-won is one of them.

He will be on stage at the beginning of the concert with Doh Kyungsoo, singing "Dearyfaily" together with senior singers from their agency like Ahn Chilhyun, BoA, Changbin, and Taeyeon.

This concert was different from the last dream concert. This time, it was truly a singalong, and we all had microphones in our hands.

Of course, with so many seniors present, their parts weren't that many. It represents the significance of EXO's participation.

For the past two months' family concert, he had been unable to attend due to filming. This time, there was no way out of it. They had rehearsed for many days in preparation for the stage.

…………

On October 1st, the Seoul Jamsil Stadium had already been transformed into a concert template. While the audience hadn't arrived yet, groups were already rehearsing on stage.

Sometimes, more important concerts need more than one rehearsal. Sometimes, for the sake of stage effects, there will be some temporary changes in movement during rehearsals. Some senior artists with higher status also have some improvisations.

EXO is currently standing on the side of the stage, watching Girls' Generation rehearsing on stage.

This concert will not only feature solo performances by TTS, but also a full performance by Girls' Generation of "The Boys".

This is a family concert, with all the performers being from ** Entertainment. Most of them know each other well, and some are even very close friends. So there aren't as many formalities.

When other groups were rehearsing, many other groups would watch from the sidelines. For example, while Girls' Generation was preparing on stage now, EXO was watching and clapping from the side.

Several of Shee's friends stood beside EXO, laughing and chatting, occasionally pointing at the stage.

Some members of SHINee and EXO look quite familiar with each other, like Taemin, Key, and Kim Jong-in, Kim Jun-myeon, etc. They stand together chatting and laughing, seemingly not too concerned about seniority in private.

Ji Chang Wook just greeted and chatted with a few members of SHINee, exchanging contact information afterwards. He then stood beside them, watching Girls' Generation's performance generally while whispering to Woo Shi Hoon.

Since finding out that Ji-yeong is dating someone, Woo-seok has been noticeably more talkative. Later in their conversation, Ji-yeong learned that Woo-seok had started calling a relatively unknown girl group member in July.

He met the other person backstage at a singing program and they exchanged contact information. After that, things started to get a bit ambiguous between them.

We've never met in person, we've only ever communicated over the phone.

Wu Shixun had just debuted and knew the company was very strict. He wasn't a privileged member either, so there was absolutely no way he would let the company find out.

So he always snuck around and never told any of his teammates.

After discovering that Chi Jingyuan was a fellow practitioner and even more powerful than him, he finally revealed his true identity to Chi Jingyuan.

In this situation, if Wu Shixun is found out by the company, he probably won't be kicked out of the group, but he will definitely get a severe scolding. At the same time, his phone should also be confiscated and he will be ordered to immediately cut off contact.

This is where newcomers who have just debuted can't make it. If it were other senior groups from ** Entertainment, like TVXQ or Super Junior, the company wouldn't take too many harsh measures even if they knew. On the contrary, they would even help cover it up. After being caught on camera, they would even proactively suppress press releases to prevent them from being released.

Girls' Generation should be treated like this too.

However, this kind of relationship came and went quickly. There was no need for the company to intervene at all. After dating for two months, Wu Shixun and his partner gradually lost interest in each other and said goodbye.

When they talked about this, Park Chan-hyeok also chimed in. Every time a topic like this came up, he was never absent.
