The struggles of EXO's coordination

EXO's new outfit (2)

김여주

"Chanyeol, Sehun, and Junmyeon are filming 'Radio Star' today. We have to go right away, so please wear the clothes provided."

“…Who can stop filming without permission?”

"Don't you know that we've declared a halt to our activities?"

김여주

"Yes, I know. You announced it a whole month ago, even though it was during your active period."

Yesterday, I asked the director to set up their Radio Star schedule. Since it seemed like it would be difficult for all the members to appear, we decided to focus on Chanyeol, Sehun, and Junmyeon for now.

As expected, when I brought up the topic of schedules, the members naturally became serious and got angry.

김여주

'What's there to brag about by declaring a hiatus?'

I worried about whether I could convince her, but I couldn't afford to cancel my schedule at this point, so I started talking. Perhaps it was inevitable that a singer would be shaken by this issue.

김여주

“Don’t you think that’s selfish?”

엑소

"···."

김여주

"I understand that you have a special relationship with your former stylist. I also understand that you are very sad right now. But if you suddenly declare a hiatus and continue to insist on it, what are we supposed to do about the rest of you?"

엑소

"···."

김여주

"What do the fans who are waiting become? Shouldn't a singer love his fans? What they're doing now, in my eyes, seems like they're deceiving their fans."

As expected, the members seemed greatly moved by my words. It was just like the rule that a singer can only exist if they have fans.

김여주

'···Did I say something harsh?'

I felt a little guilty for bringing up the fans, and I regretted it for a moment, but it was only for a moment.

“…Shix, you can just go. But don’t wear the clothes you prepared. I’ll wear them myself, so just know that.”

"I'm sorry, but I'll take care of it myself."

"Oh, I don't have any clothes to change into."

김여주

"···."

“…I have no choice but to wear it just this once. From now on, I will never wear the clothes you prepared for me.”

The three, shaken by the title of "fan," eventually stood up to continue their schedule. Of course, they refused my outfit, but I consoled myself that it was a good deal. They had considered canceling their schedule in the worst-case scenario.

In the end, only Sehun wore the outfit I had prepared and went to his schedule.

김여주

'It's just the beginning, and it's already this hard.'

As EXO's new stylist, 'EXO' was a huge thing that I had to handle.

"Radio Star, the response was better than I expected. It's all thanks to you, Yeoju. Thank you for persuading me so well."

김여주

"thank you."

"However, there have been a lot of negative articles about the other two members, excluding Sehun. I think you already know the content without me having to tell you. It might be difficult, but from now on, even if it means forcing yourself to wear the clothes Yeoju prepared, okay?"

김여주

"···Yes, I will try."

I left the room, leaving the director with a satisfied smile behind. I managed to get through this one, but I wondered if I could change EXO in the future.

To be honest, I wasn't confident. But it was something I couldn't give up on.

김여주

'I'm worried.'

I'm worried, really.
