Starting December 12th, the number of performers on the "Miracle in December" music show stage increased from four to six. Lu Han also began to participate in singing, while Zhang Yixing performed as a piano accompanist.
Backstage, in the waiting room, the members were finalizing their outfits. Today, instead of sharp, formal suits or heavy coats, they were wearing all sorts of sweaters.
Ou Yangguang wore a beige turtleneck chunky knit sweater, which made his face look even more delicate. His hair was dyed a warm chestnut brown and styled in a wool curl. His bangs softly fell over his forehead, making him look like an adorable puppy who loves to be pampered.
He adjusted his in-ear monitor in front of the mirror, while next to him, Kim Jongdae was tugging at the sleeve of his white diamond-patterned sweater, muttering, "It looks like the one my mom knitted when I was little."
Do Kyungsoo was wearing a simple white crew neck sweater and was playfully fighting with Byun Baekhyun. Baekhyun was also wearing a white crew neck sweater with a shirt layered underneath.
Lu Han wore a white cable-knit sweater, which made his skin look very fair.
Zhang Yixing has a special arrangement for today: he will be playing the piano as an accompanist for the first time on a music show stage. He wore an apricot-colored V-neck sweater, looking clean and gentle, with his hands discreetly hidden in the sleeves.
"Kids, get ready to go on stage!" the agent reminded them.
The stage lights dimmed and then came back on, revealing a pristine backdrop reminiscent of a winter snowscape. Several soft spotlights shone on the stage. Byun Baekhyun, Kim Jongdae, Oh Yang-yang, Lu Han, and Do Kyungsoo (standing in order of name) stood in the center of the stage, microphones in hand. To one side of the stage, a white grand piano stood quietly. Zhang Yixing sat on the piano bench, took a deep breath, and placed his slender fingers on the black and white keys.
The clear, flowing piano prelude began, instantly captivating everyone's ears. Immediately following, Ou Yangguang's clear and soulful voice took center stage.
"I long to see you, whom I cannot see..."
His voice, enveloped in a warm sweater, carried a deep, tender quality and a sense of story. The camera zooms in, capturing the moment when he slightly lowers his gaze, his long eyelashes casting a soft shadow beneath his eyes—a focused and affectionate expression that is truly captivating.
Jongdae's powerful yet delicate voice followed, Do Kyungsoo's rich bass laid the foundation, Baekhyun's clear high notes and Luhan's gentle mid-range intertwined... The harmony of the five was as beautiful as a breath of warm air in winter, hazy and warm.
Zhang Yixing's piano accompaniment was present throughout, sometimes as gentle as falling snowflakes, sometimes as firm as the warm winter sun. His fingertips moved smoothly across the keys as he addressed the members, occasionally meeting Ou Yangguang's gaze in the air, exchanging knowing smiles.
The fans below the stage held up support signs and listened quietly, many with tears of emotion in their eyes.
