only three people wide is what Chi Jingyuan remembers most."President Park Jin-young is currently communicating with the program team and will be here soon.""Okay, I understand.""Good evening."Nodding...As it neared 7 pm, the nine members of EXO lined up on the living room sofas in two rows. Four sat down, while five stood behind them. An assistant stood in front of the television holding a phone and facing them, ready to shoot.
EXO's individual members each have their own live streaming accounts, but the group's official account is managed by the company. Only company staff have the authority to start group livestreams.
Standing beside him, Lee Seung-hwan looked at the time and whispered a few words to the Vlive staff. Then, he asked Park Kyung-won and the others one last question:
"Are you ready"
"Don't worry, brother."
"Let's get started!"
Park Chan-wook waved to a few people, and the noisy responses seemed eager.
Several EXO members have been very interested in this private live streaming activity since they found out about it. They've been actively discussing the content of the livestreams these past few days, and it seems like they will treat it as an important personal schedule going forward.
"Okay, let's get started."
At the sound of "ready," all nine members began their expressions management, looking together at the phone in front.
"3, 2, 1."
“The live stream has started.” As the assistant shouted after turning on the livestream, although there was no opening ceremony and the phone camera recording them had no indicator lights, the nine members of EXO still felt a very unique sensation facing the lens.
"Has it begun"
"Has it begun"
Several people looked at the camera and habitually asked a question, after getting the assistant's nod of approval, Park Chan-yeol and Byun Baekhyun immediately exaggerated their expressions, opened their hands wide, and exclaimed with gestures: "Yo, yo lo ben, annyeonghaseyo, hello everyone, you are now watching EXO V APP 'Three Days Together' first live broadcast, hello everyone!"
Chi Jingyuan, standing at the back, was startled by the exaggerated shouts of the two people who suddenly entered their state. He lowered his head and glanced at the two with slightly strange eyes, then looked at the camera again.
There are nine people in the group, and it's impossible for everyone to get enough exposure in a single live broadcast. So, as usual, there are mainstays, supporting roles, and someone who sets the atmosphere, guides the flow, and acts like an MC. This time, they chose Park Chan-yeol and Baekhyun for those roles, while Park Ji-won is mainly responsible for keeping things lively during boring breaks by chatting with the audience and reading comments to prevent the mood from dropping.
Park Chan-yeol and Beon Baek-hyun are usually the atmosphere makers in EXO, and they're also the most enthusiastic members when it comes to live broadcasts. Although it was just an opening, Ji Kyeong-won thought these two were really a good fit.
"Is anyone there"
Because it was just the beginning of the live stream, Beomgyu was worried that no viewers had come in yet, fearing that his well-prepared opening would be wasted effort. After finishing his greeting, he asked nervously.
“Yeah, as soon as the live stream started, there were already eight thousand people. The comments are flying by so fast, you can’t even see them…” Holding up her phone, she glanced at her assistant and nodded in surprise, speaking into the microphone: “Now there are ten thousand, and the number is still increasing rapidly… It's just, it's starting to lag.”
Even as an EXO assistant, he was very aware of the group's current popularity and hype. But he was still taken aback by the sheer number of viewers flooding into the livestream. around them noticed that this junior was clearly a fan of Ji-yeong, getting extremely excited at his every move. However, for the others, it was more of an "love house and wife" situation - caring a...
