[FAN-ACCOUNT] Chen’s B-Day Fan Event - From 120920 | Compiled

Author Note: Sorry i'm just found Chen's compiled fan-account. I'm sorry just posted this today T-T but enjoy :)

----

Mainly translated 2xoxo-nim’s fan account. Translated bits of 만렙-nim’s (naver blog), 장이씽, 옥만두, 엑소홀릭, 나DO사랑해-nim’s (DC), 카제하나-nim (egloos), and baekpower-nim’s (daum talk cafe) fan accounts to complement & make this translation as complete as it can be.
I’m pretty sure that I’ve filled in everything that’s happened at this fan event. OTL
Long, long text ahead. (I warned you.)
  • NOTE THE TOY WITH THE PLASTIC FIST THAT KRIS IS HOLDING. DUIZHANG LITERALLY POURS HIS AFFECTIONS INTO THAT THING THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE EVENT. 
  • Note Chen’s animal ear(?) headband too. It’ll be mentioned later~
  • It was 8pm when the fans were allowed into the SM building. 
  • Event supporters made sure all cellphones were turned off, placed number tags on all our bags so we could leave them outside, and ushered us into the practice room in the basement.
  • The fans sat in rows of ten, and there were 9 supporters in total, eyeing the fans the whole time, so it was…scary.
  • The supporters warned us about rules such as any recording devices being banned, and they reminded us that we needed to say “Chen” not “Jongdae” while singing the birthday song & actually made us practice singing it.
  • It was really weird though ‘cause while singing it, we needed to extend “Chen” to 3 beats and sing, “Che-e-en~”
  • It really would’ve been easier if we were just allowed to sing “Jongdae-ae~” ….;;;
  • A couple fans in the first line were given mini firecrackers to light once Chen blows the candles out later.
  • It was a bit past 8:30pm when the boys came in with “History” playing in the background.
  • They were standing in this order: Kris, Lay, Luhan, Xiumin, Chen, and Tao.
  • The boys did the group greeting, but the first time around, they messed up because some members shouted it in Korean while others did in Chinese.
  • Lay, Xiumin: “Now, whoever said the greeting in Chinese…..”
  • Kris: “But I said it in Korean~~”
  • Lay, Xiumin: “….raise your hand~”
  • Luhan raised his hand.
  • Lay, Xiumin: “You’re supposed to do in Korean~ Let’s try again!”
  • The boys talked it over and tried again, this time meeting with success~
  • Kris: “As everyone all knows, I am EXO-M’s Kris!”
  • The self-introductions were typical, “I am EXO-M’s _____.”
  • Except Chen who shouted, “At least for today, I am the ‘main,’ Chen~!!”
  • Xiumin was trying to be the “host” of this fan event, but Kris kept on distracting him on the side.
  • Kris had this little toy that would pop out a tiny fist whenever Kris pressed a button. (Look at above group picture for the toy.)
  • He’d keep using it to attack Xiumin on the side while he was talking, so every single time, Xiumin was taken aback.
  • The members started talking about receiving their awards at the Chinese awards ceremony. 
  • Chen: “You know, how we got a lot of awards that day…!! I really wanted to say this then! The Chinese members treat me very well, and I’m doing fine in China, so Korean fans do not need to worry about this~”
  • When he was talking, Chen’s voice slightly wavered and he looked like he was about to tear up, so all the fans started looking at him in concern.
  • Luhan: “Ah, don’t cry~”
  • Chen then broke into a cute, reassuring smile.
  • It was time for the birthday cake to make its entrance, but it wasn’t…so Xiumin kept glancing around.
  • Fans: “Where is it?”
  • Kris: “Sorry, Jongdae~ Didn’t buy one~”
  • Kris was cracking a “joke,” but no one reacted to it; it was ignored. OTL
  • Tao: “Why isn’t the music playing?”
  • Lay: “You were supposed to sing for us. That’s why~ keke”
  • The event supporters finally walked in with 2 cakes.
  • Kris tried to help light the candles, but the supporters did it instead.
  • After the candles were lighted on both cakes, the fans sang the song, and Chen blew the candles out for one cake.
  • Looking at the other cake, Chen asked, “What’s this?”
  • Xiumin: -in a very serious tone- “Wish cake. If you make a wish and blow out the candles, it’ll come true. o___o..”
  • Chen: “Then shall I make the wish to myself or say it out loud?”
  • Xiumin: -suddenly changes to an irritated tone- “Just do whatever.”
  • Chen decided to make the wish to himself, but I guess his eyes were open?
  • Lay: “When you make a wish, you’re supposed to close your eyes!!”
  • So Chen repeated the wish to himself with his eyes closed. When he was done, he opened his eyes.
  • Xiumin: “Soooo….what’d you wish for~~?”
  • Chen: “If you’re going to be like this, why didn’t you have me say it loud from the beginning?!”
  • The two kept on “bickering” cutely.
  • Chen: -smugly- “I have only one wish!! World peace!! I am always wishing for world peace~”
  • Then, he shouted “Peace!” out loud in English.
  • Tao and Luhan started going crazy with their snow spray cans.
  • EXO has a thing for these spray cans. 
  • One could totally tell by the experienced, skillful way the boys were shaking the cans while snapping their wrists.
  • Tao sprayed at the fans and at the top of Xiumin’s head while Luhan sprayed at Chen.
  • Luhan sprayed a bit too much, and it was starting to block Chen’s vision.
  • Chen took the cans away, saying “I am the ‘main’ today; it won’t be right if I can’t see~”
  • Even after this, Luhan sneaked the spray cans back and continued to spray at Chen.
  • Chen: “I am the ‘main’ today.”
  • Kris: “Looks like you really wanted to be the ‘main’~”
  • Then, since Chen was done with the whole cake ordeal, it was time for the other boys to relay their birthday messages to him.
  • Xiumin was trying to make this event go on smoothly but he kept on stumbling over his own words.
  • Chen: “It’s my birthday and yet, I need to emcee my own event?!”
  • Xiumin: -sulks- “Fine, you do it..!!”
  • Lay: “Is Xiumin hyung really a Korean?”
  • Xiumin: “……”
  • Chen: “I am the ‘main’ today!!”
  • Lay: -holds up four fingers- “You’ve already said that 4 times~”
  • Kris: -to Chen- “I have nothing to say to you. Ah, when is your birthday anyways?”
  • I think this was supposed to be a joke, but it wasn’t /that/ funny…..so the room broke out into awkward silence.
  • Kris: “……I love you.” -hugs Chen-
  • Lay: -hugs Chen tightly- “I can be dirty sometimes, so I’m sorry.” -hugs Chen once more- (LOLOL)
  • Luhan, on the other hand, punched Chen’s arm really hard and shouted, “Birthday punches!!!” 
  • He then took Kris’s fist toy and when he pressed the button, the fist shot out and hit Chen in the chin.
  • Chen: “……”
  • Luhan: “You do fool around a lot, Jongdae, but I still love you.”
  • When it was Xiumin’s turn, he first made Chen stand in a submissive/obedient position by the wall. 
  • Xiumin: “I feel like you’re really my blood-related little brother…”
  • All the fans started laughing and shouting here because Xiumin looks younger than Chen.
  • Chen: -mock anger- “You shouldn’t judge us by outward appearances!! You must look at the numbers! I’m a 92’er!!!!!”
  • Xiumin: “If we didn’t have you, no one would be able to hit those high notes~!”
  • Luhan: “I can do it!!!”
  • Xiumin: “Happy birthday, and I love you~” -hugs Chen-
  • Tao placed his arms around Chen before opening his mouth to talk.
  • Tao: “Honestly, I wasn’t close with Jongdae hyung in the beginning. But we suddenly got close; I don’t know how, but we’re close now!”
  • Chen: “Yes, it’s true. We were pretty awkward and quiet with each other in the beginning~ I came into SM late, and the last member I got close to was Tao. Actually, even after debuting, we still weren’t that close. keke.”
  • Tao: “But I am now close with you, hyung! Dancing machine hyung~!!”
  • Everyone started laughing, and because of the fans’ reactions…
  • Tao: “Ah…WHY~~!!”
  • Chen: “Yeah…WHY~~!!”
  • Tao: “I love you, hyung.” -hugs Chen-
  • Tao and Chen kept on playfully nudging each other throughout the whole event~
  • Then, the members brought up “Yaja Time,” a game in which the oldest becomes the youngest and vice versa. So during the game, Xiumin=youngest and Tao=oldest. It’s a game in which the younger members have the chance to speak up/against the older members in informal language~
  • Chen: “Can we play it please? We can just say a couple words to each other, and that’ll be it!”
  • Lay: “…..But when we get home…..”
  • Xiumin: -sweats- “Yeah, let’s play….;;;;;”
  • Chen: “Ah, we’re playing it? Seriously?? ‘Yaja Time!?’ Everyone, this will be the first and last time you’ll see EXO play ‘Yaja Time~!’”
  • Luhan: “Make manager hyung play too!”
  • Chen was getting really excited about playing this game, and seeing this, Xiumin snorted.
  • Xiumin: “You want to play that badly!? You really want to call this hyung, ‘Ya!’ and use banmal/informal language!?”
  • Chen: “Ah, when we get back home, this’ll be a huge problem! My future is…dark….” -sudden change of attitude- “We have around 100 fans present here as witnesses today~! So are there to be grudges held afterwards!?”
  • Fans: “No!!!!”
  • Chen: -arrogantly motions to Kris- “Ya, Kris, come over here~”
  • Kris: “What…”
  • Chen: “How dare you use banmal with your hyung!? Do you not know the meaning of ‘Yaja Time?!’”
  • Kris: “….Yes, I am sorry.” -bows-
  • Luhan was supposed to be Chen’s next target, but after seeing how Chen was going about the game, Luhan got “scared” and made the confused Lay switch places with him. 
  • Then, Luhan mumbled something quietly.
  • Chen heard him and had this really exaggerated expression of shock and horror at Luhan’s “disrespect” to his “hyung.”
  • Luhan: “Ah, yes, I’m sorry.”
  • Lay didn’t really understand the game’s rules, so Chen walked over to him to explain.
  • Chen: -points to Kris, Luhan, and Xiumin- “Yixing-ah, think through this well~~ Basically, we can use banmal/informal langauge while talking to them~ Right now, we are the hyungs, and those three are our dongsaengs!! If you’ve got something to say to them, say it now~!”
  • Lay: -blank expression- “….I have nothing to say.”
  • Chen: “Come on~~~”
  • Lay: “….Can I curse?” (LOLOLOL)
  • Chen: “Hey, Minseok~”
  • Xiumin: -bows- “Yes, hyung!”
  • Then, Chen casually threw his arms around Xiumin and Luhan’s shoulders, tucking them on both sides. 
  • Chen: “Ah~ You two~~~”
  • Here, Xiumin and Luhan’s expressions didn’t look too pleased with the current situation.
  • Chen: “……Will you hit me later in the dorms?”
  • Xiumin: “Ah, when did I ever hit you!? I’m not going to hold any grudges, but tomorrow’s your actual birthday, so I’m going to roll you up in your blankets! Actually, why don’t you hit me right now, /hyung/, so I can hit you back in the dorms? ^_^..?”
  • Chen: “I am worried for my future right now. It looks…uncertain at the moment~”
  • Luhan: “We’ll see back at the dorms~ ^_^”
  • Chen moved on to Tao.
  • Xiumin: “Ah, Tao’s not that good at Korean and is still in the middle of learning, it wouldn’t be good if he learns banmal first!!”
  • So the “Yaja Time” game ended like that.
  • It was finally time to answer fans’ questions now!
  • The boys each had “O” and “X” panels that they would raise in response to each fan question. The member who, alone, raises a different panel than the others will get hit on the head with a toy hammer.
  • But even in the midst of all this….
  • Chen: -sadly- “Is this the end of ‘Yaja Time’ now…?”
  • Kris: -threatening/dark tone- “Why? You want to play more??” (Seems like the leader didn’t really enjoy the game. keke)
  • Chen: “….Hyung, you choose a question first~”
  • Kris: “Why should I go first?”
  • Chen: “Because I’m hosting this event apparently, and my say is all that matters~”
  • Tao: “Ah….” 
  • Tao then volunteered to go first.
  • He stood up and looked at all the post-it questions on the board.
  • Lay: -teasingly- “Will he be able to read any of those…?”
  • Tao: “I can do it!! Are you looking down on me now??”
  • Tao took a bit more time looking through the questions before murmuring, “…..I can’t read anything…”
  • In the end, he was still able to choose a random question.
  • Question that Tao chose: “Who speaks better Chinese: Chen or Xiumin?”
  • All the members chose Chen. 
  • Xiumin accidentally chose Chen because he misunderstood which panel it was that he had to raise to vote for himself.
  • Lay: “I am being very serious right now. Are you really Korean…?”
  • Xiumin lowered his head in shame.
  • Chen: “I’m better than him at Korean, and I’m also better at Chinese~!!”
  • In the end, Chen hit Xiumin on the head hard w/ the toy hammer.
  • Chen: “….I don’t know how my future’s going to turn out now….”
  • Actually, here, Kris was the only one who held up “X” to vote for Xiumin, but once he noticed that the others raised “O,” he quickly changed panels. 
  • Kris was supposed to have gotten hit by the toy hammer, too, if the others had noticed him. Sneaky Duizhang~~
  • The next member to choose was Xiumin. 
  • He was reading each and every question carefully, but the other members kept on nagging/yelling at him to hurry and make up his mind.
  • Xiumin quickly chose a question but you could see the sadness in his face because he didn’t really like the question he was forced to choose. His regretful expression was so cute!!
  • Question that Xiumin chose: “Tell us your striking charming point~”
  • Xiumin: “It has to, specifically, be really striking!!”
  • Chen: “Then, what do you think my charms are?”
  • Lay: “Your high notes!”
  • Luhan: “Your voice~”
  • Tao: “Dance!!” -in a really serious voice- 
  • Fans: “Ah…..”
  • Tao: “…Jongdae hyung is really funny whenever he dances!! It’s like…is he truly dancing?”
  • Chen: “I’ll pass on this comment~”
  • Kris: “You are handsome.”
  • Chen started grinning really widely.
  • Kris: “I knew you wanted to hear something like this.”
  • Kris was the only one who complimented Chen on his outward appearance, so from here, Chen started to show favoritism towards Duizhang. LOL
  • Chen: “Hmm….Everyone’s brought up my high notes and my voice? Isn’t there something….like, I don’t know~ Maybe a body part….”
  • Kris: “Both are nice.”
  • Chen: -shyly- “………My collarbones are my charming points~”
  • Xiumin: “What collarbones? Where exactly are they? keke”
  • Chen: -defensively- “They’re here!! I do have collarbones~! I am a man who has collarbones!!!”
  • Fans: “Where????”
  • Chen: “Everyone~ You do know that if someone does this weird posture, his collarbones /will/ show, right?” 
  • Chen then did this posture, lowering his upper body in a seductive manner that showed the fans a good view of his collarbones~
  • IT WAS PRICELESS. IT WAS SO SEXY ALL THE FANGIRLS DIED RIGHT THERE~~~
  • Tao, on the side, pulled on his shirt a bit and pretended like he was “looking” for his own collarbones.
  • Chen: “But I don’t really know if my voice is charming…I actually don’t know what my charm is…”
  • Kris: “The fact that you, yourself, don’t know how charming you are…is charming.”
  • Fans: “OHHHHH~~~~~”
  • Chen: “If you think about it, what he said isn’t that impressive~ keke”
  • Lay: “I am the main dancer of EXO-M, so I’ll choose a dance-related question~”
  • Chen: “…Dance? Ah, I’m the ‘main’ today. Let’s only pick comfortable, easy questions please~”
  • Question that Lay chose: “What does ‘dance’ mean to Jongdae?”
  • Chen: “Ah, I’m really grateful that the fans call me ‘Dancing Machine!’”
  • Xiumin: “Are you sure the fans came up with that nickname? Wasn’t it you who started it all?”
  • Chen: -turns to Lay- “Dancing is a point I’ll get to work on at one point of my life, but that’s not my focus right now. I don’t feel the need to develop my dancing skills yet, so you can rest assured with your main dancer position for now~” 
  • Anyways, Chen emphasized that to him, dancing is one thing that he’ll end up mastering later in his life.
  • Chen: “My life’s goal~!!!”
  • The members mentioned that there’s this one dance that Chen actually executes the best out of all the EXO members.
  • Chen demonstrated it after the members told him too, but some of the fans honestly said they had no idea what kind of dance it was that he just showed.
  • Chen looked at the members with a glint in his eyes, “You made me do this; I won’t die alone~”
  • Question that Luhan chose: “Brag about yourself.”
  • Chen: -confidently- “I think I sing well~”
  • Xiumin: “Shall we confirm the validity of this with our ‘O’ and ‘X’ panels!!?”
  • So it became like: holding up ‘O’ if it’s agreeable that Chen sings well and ‘X’ if it’s disagreeable.
  • Everyone held up ‘O’ except Xiumin who was bluntly holding up his ‘X’ panel.
  • In the end, Xiumin was hit on the head w/ the toy hammer again.
  • What has happened to the eldest hyung’s authority…..;;;
  • Lastly, it was Kris who stepped up to choose a fan question.
  • Fans: “OHHHHHH~!!!”
  • Xiumin: -tone full of mock jealousy- “Why do all the fans only start cheering whenever Kris does something…!!!”
  • Kris: “I’ll do ‘OOOOHHHHHHH~!!’ for you back in our dorms~”
  • Xiumin: “Nah, that’s too cheap.”
  • Fans: “Kris, choose a strong question!!!”
  • Kris: “But manager hyung looked through all of these questions already and took out the strong ones~ If it were up to me, I’d have filled up the whole board with hard questions~~!!!! Ah, there’s too many. I’ll just choose whatever question the fans choose.”
  • Question that fans/Kris chose: “What are some habits that the members have that you can’t stand?”
  • Chen: “Ah, should I reveal this? For Tao, whenever he talks, he’ll start out saying, ‘hyung~’ but in the end, he’ll end with banmal/informal language. I don’t know whether to feel good or bad about this. Tao-yah, let’s stick to the formal speech~ keke”
  • Tao: “Yeah, I use banmal when talking to Jongdae, right~~?”
  • Xiumin: “For me, I take cleanliness seriously. Sometimes, even I, myself, think I’m going overboard with it. It’s an illness, really. For example, all the members wear slippers inside the dorm, but I always take them off right before entering my own room.”
  • Chen: “For Luhan, he hates people invading his space on the bed. He’ll get really angry even when someone’s just /approaching/ it. It’s totally his territory. When Minseok hyung sits on his bed, he’ll yell at him, ‘Yah, get off~!!’ and kick him off~”
  • Lay: “There was this one time when the manager came in to tell the members about their schedule for the day, and he sat himself down on Luhan’s bed. Just as the manager sat down on his bed, Luhan’s expression turned rotten.” -imitates Luhan’s expression back then- “Then, the manager settled down really comfortably, and Luhan’s head lowered, face scrunching up even more. Then, when the manager actually lifted one foot onto the bed, Luhan totally turned his head away from the sight. The manager asked what was wrong. Luhan quickly raised his head and smiled brightly at the manager, answering, ‘Nothing, hyung~!’” 
  • Lay imitated Luhan’s forced angelic smile back then: *^-^*
  • Chen: “We’ll reveal the aftermath of this.”
  • Luhan: -taken aback- “W-what?”
  • Chen: “This incident ends with Luhan changing his bed sheets after the manager left~”
  • Chen: “Lay’s habit is that he takes off his clothes like he’s ‘shedding’ or taking a bothersome layer off in the dorms.”
  • Xiumin: “Actually…I think all the M members do this except me.”
  • Chen: “And from what I know, the member in EXO-K who also shares this same habit is Jongin~”
  • Kris: “This was revealed through broadcast before, but I sleep-talk in 3 different languages.”
  • Chen: “I’m envious. It’s not something you can just do, you know~ I mean, Xiumin hyung, try speaking in Chinese!”
  • Xiumin: “I need to work on my Korean first.”
  • Lay: “Kris shouted in his sleep last night!”
  • Kris: “When did I..!! I don’t remember this at all!!” 
  • (You were asleep; of course you wouldn’t remember…;;;;)
  • Like this, the fans’ questioning time /should/ have ended here, but there was still a lot of time left over, so the boys decided to choose a couple more questions.
  • Question that Tao chose: “This quality, I know I’m better than the other members..!!”
  • Chen: “I’ll answer this really quickly~”
  • He pointed at one member, saying, “I am better at singing than you!” & kept moving down each member, saying the same thing.
  • Only to Kris, whom Chen favors (b/c of the whole “You are handsome.” compliment from before…LOL), Chen said, “You’re good~!”
  • Kris was left all confused ‘cause he had already forgotten what he did to make Chen treat him so specially.
  • Kris: “What..!! What’s good? What’s good??”
  • Chen: “Ah, I was just too lazy to tell each member the same thing. That’s why I just passed you~”
  • Xiumin: “Leave out singing and dancing for once, and choose one quality~”
  • Chen: “Ah, this may be a complex to other people, but it’s something I, personally, take much pride in! ….My small feet!!”
  • Fans: “Show us!!!”
  • Chen: “…..My heart is not prepared for this yet. Showing my bare feet will feel like standing stark naked in front of you all. I’ll show you next time~” lol whut.
  • Next was Xiumin’s turn to choose.
  • Xiumin: “Please cheer for me like Kris this time! With the whole ‘OHHH~~~’ Just once?” (Minseok-ah…ㅠㅡㅠ..)
  • The fans ended up going “OHHHHH~~” for every single thing Xiumin did afterwards.
  • Question that Xiumin chose: “Show us an aegyo in Chinese!!!!”
  • Chen: “Is there something like ‘Bbuing bbuing’ in Chinese too?”
  • Lay: “There’s ‘Bba Bba.’”
  • Fans: “Demonstration!!!!”
  • Chen: “If Tao does it cutely in Chinese, I’ll follow his example~”
  • Chen was just asking Tao to demonstrate this Chinese aegyo, but Tao misunderstood Chen’s words as asking him to do aegyo in Korean.
  • Tao: “Nooooooo~ I don’t want to~~!!!”
  • Tao kept on whining that he refuses to do aegyo anymore, but in the end, the members and fans “united” and urged him to do it.
  • Tao: -in a cute voice- “Jongdae-hyung~! I want to go shopping~!!”
  • Fans went crazy~
  • Chen: “That’s not it. I just wanted you to teach me the Chinese aegyo….”
  • Tao: -covers his face w/ his hands- “Ah~ I’m embarrassed now~~”
  • Fans: “Kris, do it too! Kris——”
  • Kris: -cuts fans off- “No. I already did the “twenthy-thwee” aegyo from the last event.” 
  • Fans: “We didn’t get to see~”
  • Kris: “I don’t want to. No.”
  • Xiumin: “You bad boy~”
  • Kris: “But if I were to teach someone Chinese, I’d teach him/her Chinese aegyo first thing~”
  • Lay: “Jongdae and Minseok hyung fall sleep during their Chinese lessons!!”
  • Chen, Xiumin: “No, we don’t!!!!”
  • Chen: “Ah, I want to see Lay do aegyo~”
  • Lay cutely held up 2 fingers on one hand and 1 on the other while saying, “I’m twenty-two~!!”
  • Chen first did aegyo in Chinese and then in Korean too! Really, Chen was so full of aegyo today!!!”
  • Xiumin: “Now, it’s Luhan’s turn to choose a question!”
  • Luhan: “Chyeah~”
  • Members: “Ah, this is actually Luhan’s habit! He responds to everything with ‘Chyeah~’”
  • Fans: “What does it mean?”
  • Luhan: “I just say it whenever I have nothing else to say.”
  • Xiumin and Chen began to demonstrate on how Luhan uses this saying in his daily life.
  • Xiumin: “Luhan, did you sleep well?”
  • Chen: “Chyeah~”
  • Xiumin: “Luhan, what are you doing?
  • Chen: “Chyeah~”
  • Lay: “Luhan hyung, what’d you eat?”
  • Chen: “Chyeah~”
  • Xiumin: “We’re dragging this on now~”
  • Question that Luhan chose: “What is your ideal type, in specific details?”
  • Luhan: “No saying that it’s the fans~”
  • Then, one fan in the crowd made a heart.
  • Chen: -points to that fan- “Her! She’s my ideal girl!”
  • The fangirl who got singled out went crazy~
  • Chen: “Age is only a number~ I’ve said before on a broadcast that I like girls who are like noonas. I didn’t mean that I like noonas, specifically. What I meant was that…whether the girl is young or old, I like someone who can give me hugs, someone who I can act childish around and pull aegyo on.” -demonstrates aegyo again-
  • Xiumin: “He likes girls who go like ‘Ah, really~~?’ and baby him all the time.”
  • Chen then started massaging Xiumin’s neck from behind and said, “Yeah, I like those kinds of girls~ ‘Ah, really~~?’” -pats Xiumin’s head-
  • Xiumin: -surprised by Chen’s pat- “Now…what are you doing to me??”
  • Chen: “Every time I touch Minseok hyung today, my future is getting shadier/darker….”
  • Lay: “There’s actually something I, personally, want to ask, but I don’t think it’ll be in one of the post-its. Please say a word to our manager~”
  • Chen: “Manager hyung has gone through a lot and I want to thank him. Let’s all bow to him in thanks!”
  • All the boys got up and bowed in the direction where their manager was supposedly at.
  • Then, suddenly over the SM building’s broadcast system, the manager’s voice called out over the speaker, “Then, Chen, buy us all a meal~”
  • Chen: -coolly- “Got it; it’s on me tonight!”
  • Members: “OHHHHHH~~~”
  • Fans: “Buy grade A beef/barbeque~~~~” (really expensive in Korea btw)
  • Chen: “…Okay.”
  • Lay: -looks in manager’s direction- “I did good, right?”
  • Chen: “My account balance….ㅠㅠ”
  • Then, it was Kris’s turn again. He stepped out and…
  • Fans: “OHHHHHH~~~~~”
  • Xiumin: “No more ‘OHHHHH~~~’-ing for Kris! Banned!”
  • Xiumin exploded in jealousy today and asked for the fans to show big reactions when he talked too.
  • Chen: “Do you have any personal question you want to——”
  • Kris: -cuts him off- “No.” (LOL)
  • Chen: “What a clean response.”
  • Anyways, Kris walked up to the post-it board to choose a question.
  • From behind, Chen commented, “His shoulders are so broad and cool~”
  • Xiumin: “It’s not only his shoulders but he’s also tall~”
  • The two Korean members started staring at Kris’s backview, eyes full of admiration.
  • Xiumin dissed Chen by saying, “Kris and Jongdae are roommates but the difference between their bed sizes are huge!!”
  • Kris was pretty good at Korean when conversing, considering that he knew how to joke in the language.
  • But when it came to reading, Lay was much better.
  • Lay actually read out the post-its Kris chose for him, and Kris stood on the side, saying, “Thanks!”
  • Question that Kris chose: “Who’d you rather be: Kim Chen who can dance as well as Lay vs. Kim Chen who’s as tall as Kris?”
  • Chen: -without any hesitation- “As tall as Kris! I, of course!! I would definitely choose height! But this isn’t only me…It should be the same for all of Korea’s men!!”
  • Luhan: “Us too…”
  • Chen: “Height is a worldly issue!”
  • Kris: “But I want to dance well! I don’t dance that well~”
  • Chen: “Then, you’d have everything, the perfect package~”
  • Xiumin, thinking that no one would hear him, quietly murmured, “Ah…I also want to grow taller…”
  • Fans: “You’ll grow!! …Uh, you haven’t finished growing yet!!”
  • Xiumin: “……;;;;”
  • Xiumin was talking to himelf when he said, “Am I cool/handsome…?”
  • Luhan heard this and answered, “If you want to appear that way, you need to grow taller~~”
  • Around this time, Kris’s mic wasn’t working, so he cutely complained that the event organizers must not like him and that’s why only his mic was acting up. 
  • Lay offered Kris his own mic.
  • Kris: “I don’t want it. I want to use my own!”
  • Then, Kris started asking around/looking for for his fist toy. 
  • He had been holding onto it throughout the first half of the event ‘til it disappeared later on.
  • Kris: “Where is my ‘fist’~~~~”
  • Lay jokingly offered Kris his own fist.
  • After the whole fans’ question portion of the event ended, it was time to give out autographed goods to some lucky fans.
  • There were 3 mini-posters w/ Chen’s autographs, 1 album that all members signed, and 2 star-shaped helium balloons that all members signed. In total, 6 fans could be chosen to receive these goods.
  • Before the boys started calling out numbers, Chen said that he really wanted to try sucking in helium.
  • Chen: “I am unable to do high notes at the moment~” -breathes in- “And now, I can~!!!!!”
  • Chen then handed the balloon over to Tao.
  • Tao: “Will I die if I consume this?”
  • Chen: “No, it’s good for you. You’ll become healthier if you consume it~”
  • Tao gulped down some helium after Chen’s urging and his voice turned to a really cute high-tone~
  • Xiumin was next and he kept on trying to suck some in, but there wasn’t any voice change. He tried so hard~ Baozi expressions alert!
  • Xiumin: “Ah, how do you do this?”
  • Luhan tried to help him on the side by holding the balloon and literally “feeding” it to Xiumin.
  • Chen: “Swallow it! Come on; swallow it!!!!!!”
  • Before Xiumin tried to suck in the helium, he wiped the opening with his sleeve after Chen handed it to him.
  • On the other hand, Luhan just placed his lips over the same opening nonchalantly after Xiumin tried multiple times, but there wasn’t any helium left.
  • It was a pity because Lay looked like he really wanted to try too!
  • Because there were members who didn’t try at all, the event supporters were going to refill the balloons when Chen stopped them.
  • Chen: “The time’s getting late now. What if the buses stop coming….?” -faces the fans- “Which method of transportation are you taking to go back home?”
  • Fans: “Bus!!! Subway!!”
  • Lay: “Don’t the buses stop coming once it turns 11:30PM?”
  • One fan shouted, “Airplane!”
  • All the members widened their eyes in surprise, and the fan explained that she came all the way from Busan.
  • Chen: “Then, are there any fans from overseas?”
  • A couple fans raised their hands.
  • Fan: “Japan!”
  • Members: “Konichiwa~!!”
  • Fans: “It’s nighttime right now!!!”
  • Members: “Konbawa~!!”
  • Chen: “Any Chinese fans?”
  • A fan raised her hand, and Xiumin appeared to be the most excited one to greet her in Chinese.
  • Xiumin: “Nihao!!!!!!!!”
  • Chen: “Ah, thank you all for coming!! Really!! ㅠㅡㅠ..”
  • The members started signing the fan goods.
  • Chen was wearing this headband with mouse ears attached to it. (Look at above group picture.)
  • While he was signing, the headband kept on sliding down bit by bit. The members told him to fix his “ears.”
  • Kris marveled while looking at Chen’s poster. He kept on saying that he’s never seen anyone as handsome as Chen before.
  • While the other members were adding their autographs, Chen told the fans to ask him whatever they’d like.
  • Chen: “I’ve lately been hearing criticisms that my voice (when singing) doesn’t have any ‘soul.’ This is why when answering questions now, I will try my best to sound soulful~~~”
  • The fans brought up the promises the boys made during the 100th day fan event (what they’d do if they won a rookie award). 
  • Chen looked excited and said, “Ah, finally, someone brings this up!!! Minseok hyung doen’t need to wear a baozi suit, he looks like one anyways~”
  • Fans: “What is your height?” (Height = 키/Key in Korean)
  • Chen: -acts ignorant- “What? Key? Key as in Shinee’s Key hyung?”
  • Fans: “What’s your weight?”
  • Chen: “Guess~!”
  • Fans: “50kg?”
  • Chen: “Higher~”
  • Fans kept guessing until one fan shouted out, “60kg!!”
  • Chen: “That’s right~! It’s unexpected, right? I may look skinny, but I am also a man. I have all that a man’s expected to have~”
  • Fans: “Show us!!!!!!!!!”
  • Chen: “I am not mentally prepared for this yet. In ten years, I’ll show you~”
  • Tao: “His body’s really nice, really fit!”
  • At the same time, while Chen was talking non-stop, this is what was happening on the side with Kris and Lay.
  • Lay was holding his mic…but he suddenly shifted his hand position.
  • He was fisting the mic so that his hands were covering the top part where he’s supposed to speak into.
  • This would make the sound substantially louder when Lay speaks. 
  • Noticing this, Kris quietly pointed it out and explained to Lay that he should lower his hands and hold it properly.
  • Lay was about to do what Kris told him when Kris suddenly grabbed Lay’s hand that held the mic. 
  • Lay brought his mic up to Kris’s lips, thinking that this is what Kris “asking” for.
  • Kris moved the mic away and brought Lay’s hands down on the mic to the proper position with his own.
  • After this, Kris tried to speak but because Chen was also talking at the same time, Kris’s words died out and couldn’t be heard.
  • Lay looked like he wanted to say some things too. 
  • He’d keep opening his mouth but end up closing it again. His mic was constantly held up to his mouth too…
  • Upon Chen’s suggestion, the members decided to play a game and whoever loses would have to do aegyo as punishment while wearing these silly glasses.
  • How this actually came to be: 
  • A while ago, Tao had these silly glasses. He secretly put them on and showed them to Chen, who laughed like crazy.
  • Chen seemed to really like these glasses and pocketed them, saying that he’ll save them for a totally awesome game later.
  • The truth was that Chen wanted to see Xiumin wear these.
  • He brought up the rules of the game now, and everyone agreed to play.
  • Chen was to ask a couple questions about EXO.
  • Chen asked all the members really easy questions that even the fans were able to answer right away, such as when EXO debuted.
  • …Except for Xiumin.
  • When it was his turn, Chen purposefully asked him a hard question, the exact date of this certain photo shoot or something.
  • Xiumin was unable to answer and lost.
  • He put on the glasses.
  • Luhan playfully turned one side of Xiumin’s glasses 90 degrees to the side, but Chen fixed it right back for him.
  • Fans: “Show us a sexy baozi!!!!!!”
  • Xiumin: “How am I supposed to act sexy with these glasses on?”
  • Fans: “Strip!!!”
  • Chen: “They’re telling you to strip!! Strip!!!!!”
  • Xiumin then acted as if he was going to take off his jacket. Then, he blew a kiss while sticking his ass out towards the fans. Afterwards, he did his boazi expression. 
  • Xiumin was supposed to come off as sexy, but all the fans started shouting, “Cute!!!”
  • Chen: “Actually~~ Each of us should do aegyo to the fans we’re giving the item we’re holding to~”
  • Fans started to protest, but the members still did it.
  • So those six fans were super lucky ‘cause each of them got to see one member specially do aegyo, up-close!
  • But, Chen, who knows true fan service, forced the members who already did the aegyo to redo it, this time at the center of the stage, so all the fans can see properly~
  • Fan account of a fan who actually got chosen for this event. (만렙-nim)
  • “Honestly, I wasn’t anticipating anything at all. I was thinking of course, it won’t be me, and I was rather thinking about how my legs were aching so much. I was massaging my legs and thinking about how to get home since the event was coming to an end….when my number was called last. I was so surprised! I really didn’t know how to react…;;; But it was just this star-shaped helium balloon they were giving out, so I was thinking that they’ll just go grab the one by the wall and hand it over. I stood up and walked over with a calm expression w-when the members started signing the balloon..!? I was so happy!!! Since I was last to be called, I was given the balloon. The two balloons were handed out by Kris and Tao, and Kris was the one who gave mine to me. Basically, Kris did aegyo for me, and oh my god~! Kris held his two fists up to his face and cutely did “Bbuing bbuing~” I thought I was going to faint! ㅜㅜ…”
  • As the event nearing its end, Tao got distracted and was in his own world. He’d let go of the balloons, let them float to the ceiling for a bit, and grab them back down.
  • Ah, about Tao, throughout the event, he would sulk about how lacking his Korean speaking abilities were. 
  • He said it was really stressful whenever he spoke in Korean because he knew how bad he was.
  • The fans complimented him, saying that he’s improved and that he’s really good now~
  • Tao brightened up and said, “Really???”
  • On the other hand, Kris seemed a bit lost during the whole event.
  • Kris: “Ah, what is going on now? I think my Korean’s really bad for the day~ I couldn’t understand a single word~”
  • Xiumin: “So whose birthday is it, next~?”
  • Fans: “LAYYYY~!!”
  • Lay was spacing out and was noticeably surprised when the fans suddenly shouted out his name. 
  • Out of habit, he blurted out, “Thank you!”
  • Xiumin: “Then, we’ll see everyone on Lay’s birthday~!”
  • Kris: “Everyone, go back home safely~!”
  • Tao: “Everyone, I will miss you….”
  • Chen: “Thank you for coming!!!”
  • The event ended, and the supporters handed back Kris his fist toy.
  • Kris pouted and said, “Why did you keep on taking it away from me?”
  • He was then spotted walking out, holding tightly onto it.
  • The boys made their exit with “Into Your World” playing in the background.
So yeah, this translation was mainly taken from 1 fan account and complemented by 7 others to fill in the little details. It’s also why I took so fuckin’ long to get this all up. While translating and compiling everything, I re-confirmed that I’m fuckin’ crazy. I joined the random talk daum cafe and “leveled-up” in rank just to gain access to this one fan account. OTL
Anyways, I hate having to put this again and again at the end of these posts ‘cause they’re repetitive and annoying, but yeah~

Thank you~
