“For the resources you obtain through your own network or abilities, the company is open-minded. Jingyuan, your development prospects are very broad, and I don't want you to limit yourself to just bei...After a series of promotions, including all EXO members posting live broadcast previews on INS, they essentially notified most fans. So, on the first day VAPP went online, after their live room was restarted after crashing, the number of viewers was almost increasing every minute and second. The clicks on hearts and real-time messages on the screen were already so numerous that they were difficult to see clearly. Although there were no more crashes, Jiyoung, who was operating the live broadcast phone, obviously felt the live room starting to lag.

Of course, Aelis would come to support their beloved oppa. Many passersby were also drawn in by the hot topic on the homepage. Even though some people weren't really into EXO, after all, it was still a fresh thing to check out a live broadcast, and there was no harm in joining the fun.

And the fact that they chose to premiere it in their dormitory and opened up a certain area to the public was really appealing. Fans were beyond excited, needless to say, already bouncing off the walls in front of the screen. Even passersby and haters were actually very interested in the daily lives of idol artists, especially in their dormitories. Plus, this chat-style, down-to-earth live stream was also quite enjoyable. Combined with the close-up shots of their faces, everyone was glued to the screen as Ji-young introduced his dormitory, finding it endlessly fascinating.

“This is the room where the three of us live. I won't show you the beds, just take a look at the decoration and cabinets.”

After taking a stroll around the living room, Ki Chul-won went into his bedroom with his selfie stick. Do Kyung-soo and Woo Se-hun followed behind him, occasionally chipping in a word or two.

He comfortably took his hat off and started the live stream. Although he seemed calm on the surface, he was actually quite nervous. After chatting with fans for a while, he felt a little warm.

Other members because they didn't wear much makeup all wore hats to cover up, but Park Ji-won's skin condition was still pretty good. He just had some dark circles under his eyes from not getting enough rest these days, but it wasn't too bad, and he didn't seem to mind much either.

“Where is this Is this a live stream from the dorm” “Yeah, that’s right. This Summer Country fan should have just come in, right We are live streaming from our dorm right now.” He leaned closer and read the comments, sharply seeing several Chinese characters asking what was going on, so he proactively read them out loud and answered them. After speaking in Chinese, he also repeated it in English and Japanese.

From the moment he noticed, it was clear that in EXO's live stream room, besides Korean spoken by fans from the peninsula, there were also a considerable number of messages in Chinese, Japanese, English, and other languages. This was especially true for Chinese; at every moment, amidst the fleeting messages, one could see strikingly prominent rectangular text. Apparently, many fans from China had also managed to download this newly launched app right away.

This also reflects EXO's international popularity. Now they are one of the most internationally renowned boy groups.

"Wow, there are so many overseas fans here, thank you all for watching and supporting me. Overseas fans can leave comments freely, I basically understand them."

Seeing a clear surge in foreign-language comments, Ji Jingyuan smiled and proactively switched languages to give another reminder.

Wow, as expected of EXO's language representative, their Mandarin is even better than mine.

"Yuan said Japanese is really cool, voice actors aren't that great either, huh"

"Don't believe it! Can you understand Italian"

Since the room he was staying in had a bed and many things were relatively private, even after tidying up seriously, it wasn't really good to make it public. So Ji-seong didn't take detailed photos of it like the living room, just did a general sweep of the cabinets, floor, and surrounding decor.

"Because there are three of us living here, this bedroom is the biggest... Which three people Me, my brother, and Sehun."

Ji Jingyuan glanced around and saw a fleeting comment, after which he replied.

"New here You don't even know about the famous dorm line"

"I remember Yuan and Seonghun lived in the same room since their debut before they moved dorms."

"Wow, so many figures!!"

Wow, what a beautiful Pokemon model!

From the moment she entered the room, Tzuyu had been diligently watching the live stream. Then, after seeing Ji-yeong nonchalantly keeping his gaze on the direction of her bedside table for a few seconds, she lightly smiled.

She had been to the old EXO dorm and even sat on Pool Kyung-won's bed for a while. That strange impulse and emotion at the time still felt vivid in her memory, and besides that feeling she now understood what it was, what impressed her the most was the bedside table filled with all sorts of figurines and toys.

Now, in XO's new dormitory, she saw the same scene again. Past memories immediately reappeared before her eyes, and in just a fleeting glimpse, she keenly noticed the water cup she had given to Ji Jingyuan was placed on the shelf, exactly in the same position as where she had put the water cup. She couldn't explain why, but a happy feeling arose in her heart.

"Well haha, I put in some small things that I like. After work, when I get back to the dorm and see them, it makes me feel more relaxed."

Chi Jingyuan also saw the barrage of messages. He simply smiled and explained, then walked a few steps to the balcony, patting left and right, showing the fans roughly: "There are two balconies in our dormitory, one big and one small. This is the big balcony, which is just connected to the three of our rooms. It's usually used for drying clothes, or... hehe, it's pretty convenient anyway."

"Keke…"

Seeing this, Pei Zhuxuan couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh out loud. Her pearly white teeth paired with her dimples, looked like peach blossoms blooming in winter.

Other fans might not understand what Chi Jingyuan was mumbling about at the end, whether it was about drying clothes or something else.

But Bae Ju-hyeon immediately understood what he meant.

What's convenient Calling at night!

One of the most important functions of an idol dormitory's balcony and bathroom is this.

Anyway, every night when she returned to the dorm and called Chi Jingyuan, the two of them basically crouched on the balcony.

Thinking about it, she laughed again. The few sisters beside her glanced at her in surprise, somewhat unsure where her amusement came from.

"Okay, that's about it for the common areas in our dorm today. Hmm, we'll leave the rest of the guys' rooms for next time."

After taking the audience on a tour of all the areas that were prepared to be unveiled today, Ji Changwook let out a long sigh and turned to communicate with his assistant through lip movements and gestures. After finding out that the kitchen side was still not finished and they needed to wait a little longer, he turned back and walked a few steps before sitting down on his bed. He then zoomed in his camera angle slightly and took a selfie from a rather strange, close-up angle: "Since Park Chan-hyeok and the others haven't finished over there yet, and it's their first live stream, I don't know what to do. Let's just chat casually for a bit and see what people are saying in the comments..."

As soon as he said that, the comments exploded, with all sorts of languages flooding the screen. It was clear that both the audience and fans were very interested in this.

"Wow, this angle looks amazing too!"

"Yuan oppa, annyeonghaseyo!"

"When is XO coming back"

"What's your ideal type, Oppa"

"The Earth Team is disbanded! To hell with Earthlight!"

"Oh my god, they're so ugly! The worst looking boy group ever. I feel like vomiting just looking at them."

The audience's enthusiasm was palpable, but there were also occasional curses and insults mixed in. This has been happening since the broadcast started, but Pyoolgyeong-won has automatically skipped over them all.

After all, EXO is a big group with a large fanbase, but it also has quite a lot of haters.

And some black fans attack people without attacking others. You can say whatever you want about the others, but things like "resource cafe royalty," I really don't know how to refute that. Even if I casually make up something, saying that I am like Park Chan-wook in terms of being promiscuous and having relationships with female fans, some people would believe it. Saying that I'm ugly Hahaha……

To be honest, fans are too lazy to refute these comments, and even passersby and even other more professional black fans treat these comments as ridiculous.

Even black fans need to do their homework.

"How excited are you to see XO eat Well, you'll be able to see it in a bit! Today's live stream theme is all about eating!"

Chi Jingyuan saw a Chinese comment and read it aloud, then said with a slight smile: "You're right, actually I'm getting hungry now. I haven't eaten anything since noon."

"Why don't I eat with others Well... because my cooking level is average."

"Well, it's just average." Perhaps he felt that "average" couldn't fully express his true level, so Ji Jingyuan added an adjective at the beginning.

"Is that how you cook You don't know how to cook at all, you just copy recipes and what you make isn't even good." Hearing Ji Jingyuan's shamelessly brazen description, Wu Shixun couldn't help but loudly interject across the table.

"...

"

Ji Jingyuan sighed, lightly licked his lips, and turned his head to stare with deathly intensity.

"Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter."

Se-hun still understands

"This look kkkk"

"Hahaha..." Doh Kyung-Soo smiled seeing the interaction between the two, then fairly expressed his opinion: "To be honest, Jingyuan's is passable, but Sehun's is really..."

That's enough, brother.

"Hahaha…"

Do Kyung Soo's righteous speech melted the ice, and Ji-won's pretended coldness immediately vanished into a smile. Looking at the overwhelming comments, he found another one: "XO Who cooks the best Well, this question is very easy to answer without any hesitation. It's . oppa. He's really good at cooking. When we get hungry at night and don't feel like ordering takeout, it's always . oppa who makes us late-night snacks."

That's true. Most of the EXO members, including Park Kyung-won himself, don't know how to cook. The others who claim they can cook are mostly just exaggerating. Only D.O. actually has some skill.

On one hand, he spoke sincerely. On the other hand, he turned the camera and patted Do Kyung-soo, who was smiling modestly.

"Why not help with the cooking Because the best should always save their grand entrance for last, right Chopping vegetables and preparing ingredients is all basic stuff. No need for me to get involved. Just wait, it'll be my turn to show off my skills soon enough."

"Where's our dorm address Um, well, haha, are you guys coming to visit But because some not-so-good things happened before, it's a bit hard to reveal the dorm address."

Facing many people asking this question, Ji Jingyuan lightly brushed it aside. If the dormitory address were really known by fans, they would truly be living in turmoil.

Although he looked at the passing comments and saw nothing out of the ordinary, a chill ran down his spine. Many people were guessing their location based on what they had seen in the room just now. One person even guessed the name of their apartment building correctly!

Wow, just looking at the general layout of the living room and bedroom is enough to guess where they live

But luckily, this comment just flashed by and immediately disappeared among the vast sea of text.

“What did I do this morning…… This morning, I filmed IVY with the members. I imagined how Yuan felt when he said it.”

"Taeyeon is also a homebody, it's a pity that she doesn't seem to like playing games."

Amongst all the scrolling comments, after hearing this sincere reflection and answer from Ji-yeong, a girl sitting in the same JYP practice room lightly bit her lip and stared at the screen. Ji-yeong's eyes were filled with longing, and a similar gleam seemed to shine in her gaze. After thinking for a moment, she sent out a comment: "Me too, it's really happy (smiling face)."

Unfortunately, once it was sent out, it was immediately lost in the crowd. Neither Chi Jingyuan nor any of the other spectators noticed it at all.

"Okay, last question. We're going to cook for ChanYeol and the others."

There, the assistant came over and notified him. Chi Jingyuan at the meeting nodded and said something to the camera, then leaned in and started watching the barrage of messages intently.

I wonder if it's the same person who has been refreshing non-stop since a while ago. They always seem to see similar questions popping up, and they appear in various languages. It seems like they really want to know.

"Let me think... what's my ideal type Uh, why am I being asked this again"

Seeing that this question was so popular, Chi Jingyuan couldn't bear to disappoint these fans whose enthusiasm almost broke through the screen. Although he felt a little helpless in his heart, he still read it out.

"I've answered this countless times on variety shows, and each time I've put a lot of thought into my answers."

Chi Jingyuan smiled wryly. This question is truly a classic that never gets old for idols. He's been asked it since his debut, and at first, because of company restrictions, he always gave answers that sounded like they were guided and arranged by the company. For example, when asked about his ideal type, he would say "Lee Young-ae," but after being in the industry for a while, he basically stopped giving specific names anymore. Every answer now carries a hint of sincerity.

But I always feel like I'm telling the truth, but fans don't believe me at all.

"I'm not really sure about what my ideal type is, unlike Sehun, who wants someone a bit more arrogant..."

Although some were unconvinced and a little disappointed, Ji Jingyuan still answered seriously. However, before he could say much, Wu Shixun across from him interrupted with surprise, "How do you know"

"…"

Qi Jingyuan didn't answer, just sighed and gave him a blank look, then looked back at the camera: "As for appearance and personality, things like being aloof, lively, long hair or short hair, I don't really have any sensitive points, it doesn't matter to me. So what my ideal type looks like is actually quite vague. But if I had to say something I care about more, or a common ground I hope for..."

“It’s best to have the same taste, that feeling is pretty good.”

…………

After mastering the livestreaming phone for about ten minutes, Ji Jingyuan briefly said goodbye to the audience and went outside to return the selfie stick to Park Chan-wook. He then stood beside them watching them cook.

Most of the dishes were half-finished and they didn't spend too much time on them. After everything was ready, the nine members gathered in the living room and enjoyed a lively meal together. The well-presented dishes attracted the viewers' taste buds, and while occasionally teasing each other, laughter filled the air, creating a joyful atmosphere that made the audience feel extremely entertained. Until today, when the scheduled live stream of over an hour came to an end, EXO began to say goodbye. Many people still felt lingering satisfaction and were reluctant to part ways.

And Kim Dong-geon, who had been staring at the data all afternoon, couldn't contain his excitement after closing the live broadcast and blurted out:

"Goodness gracious, look at the view count and hearts XO got for their first live stream… I feel like every single VAPP user is watching."

(The End)d moved slightly to the side so that the two of them were completely pressed together."Let's go eat something first...What do you feel like"As the car started moving, Chi Jingyuan began to plan the it...
