        "Rock The World"

        Xdinary Heroes’ variety series, “Rock The World”, is making a return on Jun. 15, 2023! “Rock The World” is the band’s own variety series which brightened up VILLAINS’ lives last year with their first season. It spanned 28 weekly episodes throughout the second half of 2022 which also included several episodes of unreleased clips.

        The series was highly popular due to its various entertaining themes, plots and Xdinary Heroes’ funny sides. Their fans looked forward to every Thursday when each episode was released, waiting to see what adventures and shenanigans the group would get up to.

        With season 2 coming very soon, now is a good time to look back on season 1 for a taste of what is to come.

         

        Promoting themselves on the street

        In episode 9, Xdinary Heroes took meeting your idols on the street to another level. Having only debuted around half a year ago at the time, the band took to the streets of Yeonnam and Hongdae to promote themselves. As rookies, they were nervous approaching people. Sometimes they even got distracted by the arcades around the area. However, their undeniable charm had people interested in them and subscribing to their YouTube channel. 

        In one instance, the Hongdae team were delighted to come across two girls who knew them. They were even more delighted when the girls called up someone they knew who was a VILLAIN. It turned out that her bias was GaOn who, very luckily, happened to be one of the members there with them. The fan was shocked but the Xdinary Heroes members were shocked too to feel the love from their fans.

         

        Lilac Kindergarten with Teacher O.de

        Arguably the most iconic episodes of “Rock The World” for producing staple references and in jokes in the fandom, episodes 10 and 11 were time for Lilac Kindergarten with Teacher O.de. The day began with each of the members, who were the children of the kindergarten, making unique entrances as they arrived. All the members were dressed so cutely and greeted their teacher well. Their day consisted of playing different games and having mealtime together. Across the two episodes, the members stayed in character of being innocent children so well but it was evident that O.de was getting tired and impatient with the difficult children.

        Bootcamp with Top Gun-Il

        Episodes 17, 18 and 19 were far from the relaxing retreat that might have been expected. In preparation for their comeback, they took part in GunIl's Top Gun-Il bootcamp to rejuvenate their health but they were in for difficult and sometimes painful challenges instead. Amongst some of the things they did, ziplining, palm reading and makeshift acupressure treatment were aimed at targeting their health. They also played different games and the punishment was sitting in the charcoal kiln to sweat out their stress.

         

        Having fun at MT

        In episodes 22 and 23, Xdinary Heroes let loose and spent time on their own MT. MT, which stands for ‘membership training’, is a social event in Korean universities where students spend time away together and socialise. There are activities planned to have fun and socialise with plenty of eating and drinking involved (although Xdinary Heroes do not drink alcohol in the episodes). As Xdinary Heroes are of university age themselves (aged 20-24 at the time of the episodes), they got to experience an essential part of Korean university life together and fans got to see what they would be like as typical university students.

         

        Check out the trailer to season 2! Don’t forget to watch the first episode which will be released on Jun. 15 on their official YouTube channel.
