Peninsula Asteroid

"Dingyan, why didn't you come to the company yesterday... Did you hear that EXO won the MMA Grand Award yesterday, and it was the best song of the year for "Roar"."

After returning from school, Lin Nayeon, who had just arrived at JYP's practice room, her eyes lit up when she saw Yu Jeongyeon, and she hurried over.

The two of them have been following EXO's news since the release of the "Roar" MV. Although they are not fans, they have always paid attention to it.

One is because he thinks the songs are good and the members are handsome and popular, and the other is because of his sister.

"There was something going on at home yesterday... Of course I know. Yesterday, Ernie and I were watching the MMA live broadcast, and I was watching it too. It's normal for "Roar" to be the New Year's song. This song is so popular. Our company's practice Shengdu has been practicing the dance of this song every day, haven’t we also learned it? The choreography is great.”

Yu Dingyan said as he should.

As the trend of EXO spreads across the peninsula, just as Zhou Ziyu said to Chi Jingyuan in the text message, the dance of "Roar" has become a must-learn piece for trainees of various entertainment companies in the peninsula. The dance teachers of those companies are teaching When they were playing, they would often sincerely lament that the choreography of this song was so good, and how Chi Jingyuan was so awesome...

In addition to trainees, this is also true even for artists who have already debuted, because many variety shows have imitation and cover dance sessions, and the song that has been used most in this session in the past few months is "Roar".

"We 6MIX should be debuting soon. I wonder when we will be as popular as EXO and win major awards."

Lin Nalian looked out the window with some longing.

They have recently been selected into the debut group and have officially started practicing to prepare for their debut. The group's tentative name is '6MIX'. Several years of practice are finally coming to fruition, and everything is developing in a good direction.

Yu Dingyan was more practical. She glanced at him and shook her head:

"Unnie, you really dare to think about it. EXO has announced the next top group. Let's debut first and then talk about it..."

…………

The news that EXO's Roar won the Song of the Year award, one of the three major MMA awards, was spread ecstatically by countless fans who clung to the live broadcast the moment they won the award. It was already almost early in the morning. It's time.

After a night of deliberation and news spreading, the next morning, the entire Internet was filled with hot searches related to the term # EXO Awards.

The same is true on SNS. The official accounts of EXO and SHINee all uploaded photos from yesterday, including stage captures, close-ups of receiving awards, and the final certification photos of their respective groups, as well as photos taken with the last two groups.

More than half of the top 10 most searched websites on Naver and Daum were filled with the news that EXO and SHINee had won the Grand Award. And as time goes by, the clicks and comments on these news are continuing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The rise has become one of the biggest explosion points in this short period of time.

Just click on a hot search and you will see hundreds of comments discussing yesterday’s MMA:

"I won a grand award a year and 7 months after debuting. This is the first one this year, and it will definitely not be the last one. EXO will continue on the road of success. We will always be with you! We are one!"

"We are one!! Wuli

"I was watching the live broadcast yesterday. When it was the Grand Award's turn, I was so nervous that I almost smashed the screen of my phone. Why should I keep holding my phone... Of course, if XO wins the award, he will send it to SNS as soon as possible. Celebrate.”

"It can be seen that the members were really excited yesterday. Some of the members who are usually very calm and enjoy paddling were also very nervous. After all, it is about the honor of the group."

"I was really happy and touched yesterday, especially Yuan. When he gave his acceptance speech, he was obviously not very sensational, but looking at his eyes that were much more serious than before, I don't know why the tears suddenly fell. ...EXO Yuan is really great, "Roar" is invincible!"

"It's me upstairs, me too! Fans all know that Yuan usually likes to automatically edge and paddle when participating in such activities, but yesterday he really seemed to be particularly focused. Although he only said one sentence, he was definitely impressed. Sincerely, I took a lot of screenshots of that expression, it’s so charming.”

This meal is paired with a picture of Chi Jingyuan delivering a speech on stage yesterday. It was specially photoshopped and filtered, making it look dreamy but somewhat distorted.

"SHINee has been debuting for 6 years and finally won a grand award. Yesterday I really cried to death. I was crying with Jonghyun the whole time...EXO is really great. I, a glitter fan, also like "Roar" very much. It's really The best boy band’s song, the couple’s certified fit photos taken backstage yesterday were so cute, both groups should work together to get better and better.”

"Indeed, this photo is definitely a classic. The relationship between Yuan and Jonghyun Minho looks very good. The two chefs are ecstatic! SHINee and EXO really match each other."

Several backstage certification photos taken yesterday were uploaded to SNS and were liked wildly by fans who had been watching. Passers-by who knew the news also rushed in to click and watch.

Last night, the photo had been cited by many websites and forums and made headlines. Especially the photo of the two groups together was loved by countless people and reposted one after another.

"It's so funny. I'm so happy after winning the MMA Grand Prize, which is the most unworthy of the name of the four major award shows. I don't know why EXO has reached the top. Are the fans of the dance group so satisfied? A week later MAMA won't cry if she doesn't win the grand prize, right? She won't just pretend to be dead then, right? I've thought of all the excuses for you to show your respect, what is 'still a newcomer', what is 'debuted just over a year ago', what is 'accumulation' If you don’t have enough to share the pork, you’re welcome, just take it over and use kkkkk.”

In the early days of EXO's debut, only Ji Kyung-won was well-known and popular, and the other members were somewhat unknown, so they were called Yuan's backup dancers. Even now that the other members are very popular, the nickname of the backup dance group is still used by many anti-fans to this day. .

"I won't mention the pheasant awards like MMA. The gold content of MAMA is just average. The stage is quite interesting. I only go there to watch the performances. If EXO can win the gold record and the Seoul Music Awards, especially for the song Only when we win a big award will we, the outsiders, truly recognize this group. Don’t get too excited now, because it will be too late to cry if you don’t get it.”

"Since the debut of a group, the twelve members are all supported by Yuan. Yuan travels all kinds of schedules and shoots movies to support the whole group. Without Yuan, the group would probably be disbanded. By the way, "Roar" was also written by someone, tsk tsk, EXO If there were no Yuan, what would we be like now?"

"Yes, all the awards that your main character cannot win are Pheasant Awards. It's a pity that your idol wants the Pheasant Award so much but can't get it. All he can do is clap below and watch wuliXO go on stage to receive the award. Even though I was very upset and didn’t want to laugh, I still managed to smile. It must have been very hard to do the whole show last night. I really feel for my brothers.”

"No matter how popular Yuan is, he is still a member of XO. Even if he can write "Roar", even if he can win a big award, we XO have a group spirit. Are you angry at the top?"

"EXO's current momentum is truly invincible. The MMA Awards is just the beginning, and it will definitely not be the last award this year. I'll put it here. If you don't believe it, just wait and see..."

"…………"

Fans are really excited about EXO winning this award. They are even happier than the XO members themselves. This means that EXO has completely got rid of the shadow of the past, proved its current status and popularity, and is moving towards the next level. The first-level summit team took a solid step forward.

It took one year and seven months after debut to win the Grand Prize. Compared to SHINee, which took 6 years to win the first one, it is a very fast speed, but it does not rank too high in the history of Peninsula.

Because the record of No. 1 MissA winning a grand award within 4 months of their debut is really hard to break.

MissA debuted in July 2010. The title song "Bad Girl Good Girl" won the Song of the Year at the MAMA Awards in November of that year, which was jaw-dropping.

The second is 2NE1’s 6-month debut award, which is also MAMA’s Song of the Year.

Speaking of which, the MAMA awards are really casual. I love the new girl group so much...

Of course they can't compare to EXO in terms of speed, but they are among the strongest in terms of explosive power.

Because before August this year, no one had ever associated them with the ‘Grand Prize’, the return of “Wolf” only made them slightly more popular than before.

After the appearance of "Roar", in less than 3 months they had already become candidates for the Grand Prize at major award shows. Such explosive power is nothing short of miraculous.

And this time EXO won the grand award, it also made the Internet excited and talked about it. Fans were naturally happy and spread the news as much as they did during the Chinese New Year. XO fans who had always been disgusted with it, and fans of other groups were also a little bit disgusted with it. He also started to verbally attack, and he was so angry.

Since August, EXO's voice has been the only one left in the entire peninsula boy group. Except for G-Dragon's return, which has caused a great response, the returns of several other boy groups have basically been drowned in the torrent of "Hungry Dragon" Under the circumstances, the return was not a big splash at all.

In this situation, many fans of the group, except for those who climbed the wall, other die-hard fans will naturally be very unhappy with EXO. However, they are usually alone and outnumbered and can only dive. This time, XO won the grand award, which aroused many people who had been dissatisfied before. Their fans gathered together and started fighting with XO's fans online. It was very exciting and intense at the time.

Excluding those jealous remarks, what some people said is not bad. Although MMA is one of the four major award ceremonies, its gold content is still a little lower than the others. Like MAMA, there is no official participation. , are award ceremonies held by private entertainment and music companies.

In comparison, the Golden Record and Seoul Music Awards are indeed more important. In addition to the participation of official organizations such as the Peninsula Recording Association, and unlike MMA, both MAMA award ceremonies have three awards. The Golden Disc Awards only have awards in two categories: record and music. The Seoul Music Awards has only one award, which is the most valuable award in the music industry.

But no matter what, MMA is also an awards ceremony that is recognized by most people, and its grand award is also a very high honor, otherwise it would not make the Internet boil, and the fans would be so excited.

The outside world was disturbed by different opinions. After a short rest for one night, the members of EXO didn't have time to pay too much attention, so they continued to devote themselves to their busy schedule.
