WAYV - XIAOJUN
XIAOJUN recently won first place with an overwhelming voting rate of 65.18% during the “GLOBAL FAN PICK C-STAR” vote conducted jointly by IMBC ENTERTAINMENT and the idol fandom mobile application “IDOL CHAMP”.
ZHANG HAO, the leader of AND2BLE, took second place with 24.09%, while HENG YU of MODISSEY, XINYU of TRIPLES, and DING CHENGXIN of TEENS IN TIMES (TNT) inscribed their names in the top 5.
This vote was designed to distinguish, among artists originating from the Chinese world whose influence on musical charts is growing rapidly, those who will be active beyond Asia on a global scale. In addition to the top 5 artists, LAY of EXO, NINGNING of AESPA, WENJUN of NEXT, CHENG XIAO former member of COSMIC GIRLS, WANG JUNKAI of TFBOYS, OLLI of LOONG9, SIJIE (Sijie) of A2O MAY, LIU XUENING and CURLEY G former members of BONBON GIRLS 303, as well as XIAO GUI (Wang Linkai) of NINE PERCENT, competed for first place.
It is XIAOJUN who raised the victory trophy after ten days of fierce competition. This is an element that allows measuring his immense global influence.
This is the result of efforts accumulated step by step since his trainee days in 2018. XIAOJUN, whose face was revealed for the first time as SM ROOKIES alongside YANGYANG, aroused keen interest from his appearance thanks to his captivating gaze, his sharp jawline, and his aura full of youthful beauty that contrasts with these features. His “dinosaur” type visual, endowed with a purity reminding of JONGHYUN of SHINEE, was also sufficient to make the pink blood of SM ENTERTAINMENT hearts beat.
If he invited the public into the universe of XIAOJUN thanks to his flamboyant visual, his perfect hexagon aspects, where nothing is missing between singing and dancing, firmly chained the fans who set foot there. After having bewitched ears with a stable vocalization and a deep emotional expression worthy of the main singer of WAYV, he increased visual immersion with a unique dance line, different from those of KUN and TEN. It is evaluated that his greatest assets are the details of his fingertips and a choreography that highlights the intensity of movements.
His occasional clumsiness is another point of attraction that encourages becoming a fan of XIAOJUN. While he brings laughter with eccentric challenges that make even his fans back away, XIAOJUN has become the representative of those born with a spoon of laughter within WAYV by successively creating small comic anecdotes. To the point that collections of anecdotes exist on social media grouping his exploits, such as the yogurt cake incident or the green tea cereal incident. Thus, this unpredictable and sparkling side, opposite to his perfect appearance, makes more and more fans dive into the deep swamp of XIAOJUN.
Furthermore, WAYV, to which XIAOJUN belongs, announces a comeback for the third quarter of this year after a short absence. At the same time, a tour is also planned, which arouses expectation. Attention is focused on the results that WAYV, which records remarkable performances at each comeback, will obtain this year, and on the new charms with which XIAOJUN will captivate the hearts of global fans.
