hree-peat graduation. How could we possibly challenge them and end their winning streak""We were this hot in 1997, and it's not without hope..." Jeong Eun Ji confidently expressed her strong belief in..."Yuanxi and Endi's relationship seems really good."
They lined up at the entrance to the stage, waiting for the PD's signal to enter. Kim Ye-rong, who was standing behind Park Ji-won, took the initiative to start a conversation.
It was rather out of place. At this moment, Ji Jingyuan stood at the back of EXO, maintaining a state of leisure and aloofness throughout. Since greeting Girls' Day just now, he hadn't spoken much. Unexpectedly, Kim Yae-rong suddenly took the initiative to call him.
Ji Jingyuan turned his body to look at the back. Jin Yarong and Li Huili stood together, both squinting at him with smiles, completely without any awkwardness. They looked just like friends casually chatting for a moment.
Kim Yeong is not very thin, she's more on the plump side. She's quite tall and even without heels, she's only a little shorter than Jiyeong. She has short hair dyed brown that falls to her cheeks on both sides, with the ends curled into waves.
The face shape is a bit of a chubby face, with an alluring appearance but looking a little silly when smiling.
At this time, her lower lip curled up, her eyes sparkling as she curiously gazed at Chi Jingyuan.
Girls Day, just like them, were both wearing light green sportswear. Whether it was because of the heat or something else, these two senior female idols rolled up their pant legs to their knees, revealing smooth, toned calves.
"We've worked together on TV dramas before, and we got along really well. We became very close friends."
He smiled at Kim Yae-rong and nodded in reply.
"Yuanxi seems to have signed up for archery, didn't she come to practice yesterday
XO and the other members all came though."
Kim Ya-rong nodded and looked at him, asking again.
Ji Jingyuan understood, he said how the other members could be so familiar with Girls' Day so quickly, it turned out that they had met them when they went to practice for a project before.
Because I practiced archery for a while when I was young, so yesterday I just didn't go and took a lazy day in the practice room.
He shrugged, a look of enjoyment on his face, and Kim Ah-young and Park Min-ya also smiled.
" Yuanxi must be really good at archery, right"
It's just so-so, mostly depends on luck, I don't know how my luck is today.
Ji Jingyuan chatted casually with them for a few words, and then the PD of the program group walked over with the VJ.
"Formal recording begins, get ready, countdown..."
Team A starts to enter the field.
With PD's command, Team A's two units walked out of the entrance. Kim Jun-myeon led the way holding a flag and waving it, while the others followed behind him.
As soon as he appeared, the audience erupted in cheers. Ji-yeong raised his eyes and saw that in addition to fans from other agencies cheering him on, their EXO fans had organized themselves into a sizable section. Everyone held up small EXO banners and screamed excitedly when they saw their idols appear.
Before the show is recorded, they will send out messages and give fans of each group tickets to enter so that they can see their idols and cheer them on. This also adds color to the recording of the program.
EXO's fans came in larger numbers today than usual.
They smiled and waved at the fans on stage, quickly walking around the track once. Several members of Girls' Day followed behind them, also smiling and waving.
If EXO is considered to have a relatively low seniority despite high popularity and a loyal fanbase, Girl's Day is purely a lesser-known girl group that isn't doing very well currently. There wasn't an organized fan section for them in the audience.
However, looking at their demeanor, they didn't seem at all awkward. They were very enthusiastically greeting the audience on stage.
After circling the stadium, all ten teams, from A to J, were arranged in the center area by division. The sports field was packed with idols, filling the central area to capacity.
There are many idol groups that aren't very popular, making up a significant portion. For example, the girl group AOA hasn't made much of a splash since their debut.
There are also some groups like BigStar and EXID, but even Pool Kyungwon hasn't heard of their names. Compared to them, EXO is considered a top-tier, popular group.
Of course, many popular groups also came, like the first-line girl group Kara, as well as MissA, sistar, and Secret who were all very popular.
If she hadn't been embroiled in controversy previously, Tara, who is also participating, could also be considered one of them.
The primary principle of the divisions is that employees from the same company are in the same team. If there are fewer employees from the same company, they will be grouped with other teams.
Since **'s A-team came with SHINee's Taemin and six from EXO, the production team added Girls' Day to them.
It seems like Team D has a lot of people, half of them are from CUBE and its affiliates, 4ute, Apk, BTOB, plus other companies' BULE.
Above the Sports Center's roof hangs a large pentagon, each face fitted with a massive display screen. Footage is broadcast live here, allowing those farther away to see close-up shots of performers and the audience they might otherwise miss.
The commentary booth is occupied by three MC commentators from MBC. They introduce the contestants while cracking jokes and teasing each other, with their voices broadcast throughout the venue for everyone to hear.
Next up are SISTAR's Bora and Empire's Kim Dong-jun taking the stage to make their pledges, and then the official recording of the competition begins. The first event is the women's 70-meter heats.
This project has three rounds of preliminary matches, with the top two from each round advancing to the finals.
In the second game of the preliminary round, Girls' Day's Lee Hyeri also participated. Because they are both on Team A, several EXO members went to the sidelines to cheer them on.
Li Huili at first glance seemed to be a more extroverted and lively personality. She ran with a rather carefree air, almost like a boy. Her ponytail swung back and forth constantly as she ran.
It's a shame the speed wasn't fast enough, third place didn't make it to the final.
There was a bit of an accident during the recording. During SISTAR Bora's third qualifying round, she flew out of the finish line for several meters and landed hard, causing quite a stir among the audience. She was immediately taken to the medical room for treatment.
After the women's 70-meter preliminary race was finished, it was the men's turn. As the representative of EXO, Wu Shixun, who bravely challenged his own speed, naturally received enthusiastic cheers from everyone.
As Wu Shixun got ready to start, fans erupted in enthusiastic cheers.
It's a shame...
You're quite tall with long legs, why do you take such small steps when running
After Wu Shixun finished running, he returned to Team A with a smile on his face and waved to the fans in the stands. Ji Jingyuan didn't know what he was laughing at, so he couldn't help but retort.
"The main issue is that the practice time is too short."
"Inside, there were 6 people in total. You came in 5th place. Yesterday's practice effect is still there, at least you didn't come last."
"Well, my running speed is already pretty fast within EXO. It's just that the competition is tougher. You said you're so good Let me see your archery skills in a bit and I'll judge for myself."
Then just wait and see.
