Chapter 499
Debut or Die
Episode 499
of the broadcast program , in which I featured the stage of Cheongryeo, was organized quickly without delay.
And on the day of the broadcast.
Of course, the part that introduces the singers who will prepare for it, rather than the stage, appeared on TV.
[Rom J: Iâve been interested in (pansori) from before⦠.]
[MC: Oh, this is the first time a rapper is interested in pansori in this program. Letâs see the results to see if a pansori master would have appeared!]
A collaboration team is formed while introducing yourself and talking about what genre you are interested in.
Even in that part, itâs almost the last part.
Finally, the guy who shared the stage appears.
[This person getting out of the car⦠?]
[Cheong-ryeo: Hello.]
Here, artificial cheers go into the background, and light stick effects are added everywhere.
And even huge subtitles.
[This man⦠Handsome!]
â⦠⦠.â
âIs it true?â
I would believe it even if the person who made the subtitles came in a time machine from 10 years ago.
âIf the stage wasnât fun, this program would have been ruined long ago.â
I got up from my seat with a confused face.
âuh? Where is Mundae?â
âGo get something to drink.â
For reference, I wasnât monitoring alone.
This season, we are on tour preparing for a new album, and today is the day for the group camp once a week.
Thatâs why we rented a suite and gathered everyone together.
And I was watching this program on my smartphone⦠.
-What are you doing at Mundaemun University? Hey, is this the main broadcast today?
-⦠yes.
-ah! The hotelâs TV is said to be able to watch Korean airwaves through the Internet! How about using the TV so you can watch it on the big screen? If the other hyungs are okay⦠.
-Ah, of course itâs okay~
-Ah, is the Mundae broadcasting today? Then letâs have a look.
-OK!
⦠After going through this process, everyone is sitting together and watching this old program.
[King of KPOP VTIC!]
[Leader Chung Ryeo]
â⦠You openly float it.â
âI know.â
If youâre going to watch it with such a dissatisfied expression, why did you turn on the TV?
âWell, I had similar thoughts.â
In any case, the content of the program unfolds without anyone refuting it.
Cheong Ryeoâs brilliant career was introduced, and soon after, a scene appeared in which Cheong Ryeo talked about âa collaboration genre she hoped forâ.
Of course, usually these are all scripts. It is common to select and match masters whom the artist has already recruited according to time and popularity.
However, this time Cheongryo really did collaborate with a person in the âgenre she choseâ.
To be precise, he himself plugged it into this broadcast.
[Chungryeo: I⦠I want to work with the idol group.]
[!!!!]
[MC: Mr. Chungryeo, remember that I am an idol myself⦠?]
[Chungryeo: Of course. (Laughter) But rather, I had quite a few opportunities to perform with artists from other fields, but Iâve rarely done it with the same idol.] The
MC, pretending to be embarrassed, asks.
[MC: Then maybe⦠Female idol department?]
[Cheong-ryeo: That canât be the case. As a male idol in the same position as me.]
Cheong-Ryeo smiled and casually skipped over the MCâs question, and saved another point.
[Cheong-ryeo: And there are no members right now, so⦠Itâs a bit lonely to perform on stage alone. Thatâs why.]
I can hear the VTIC fans being thrilled.
âIt kills image making.â
it seems time
I took my eyes off the caption and walked back to the refrigerator near the hotel room foyer.
And I took out the bottled water from there and listened to it⦠saw.
dark beer.
â⦠⦠.â
Come to think of it, it seems like itâs been several years since I didnât drink alcohol.
â⦠⦠.â
Come to think of it, there is no concert tomorrow.
âAt least one can isnât okay⦠.â
âPark Moondae.â
âyes.â
I knew it would be like this.
It was Bae Se-jin who had followed me to the front door before I knew it. Is there some kind of alcoholic sensor.
I took my eyes off the beer and picked up an unlabeled water bottle.
I have to monitor anyway, so letâs drink cold water.
The moment I thought so, Bae Se-jin suddenly asked.
âAre you in a bad mood or stuffy inside right now?â
â⦠? no.â
Park Moon-daeâs physical condition was ruined because he stopped drinking alcohol.
âokay. ⦠⦠Otherwise, at least a can from time to time⦠I thought it would be okay to drink comfortably.â
â⦠?!â
for a moment.
âAre you serious?â
The one who disposed of all the alcohol called alcohol from the previous dorm until now?
When I raised my head, Bae Se-jin continued talking with a slightly embarrassed face.
âI know it was strange for me to say so much in the first place. But just⦠It seemed like a bad habit of becoming addicted to alcohol, so I was trying to stop it.â
I guess so.
âBut now, if I donât have that habit, Iâll be meddling.â
â⦠⦠.â
âof course! Itâs about when youâre sure you donât want to drink because of stress.â
I took my hand off the water bottle for a moment and reminisced.
âCome to think of it⦠.â
At some point, the habit of drinking to relieve irritation disappeared.
âI think heâs seen it a few times whenever I go near the refrigerator or convenience store.â
And right now I definitely donât want to drink it to relieve stress.
I smiled and nodded.
âyes.â
âokay. okay.â
Bae Se-jin nodded neatly. like admitting it.
âI am.â
I feel like I got some kind of addiction treatment certification.
âYes, thanks to that guy, I gave up the cost-effectiveness of relieving my mood with alcohol.â
I admitted it too.
âHyung didnât interfere for nothing, he got help.â
â⦠⦠A lot.â
You canât hide your pride. what good
âHow long.â
I reached out.
And finally, I grabbed a can of dark beer from a familiar brand that I had been drinking years ago from the refrigerator.
âI changed the design.â
And I took it right away and drank it.
gulp.
Carbonation was thrilling.
The cold barley beer that I drank after a long time went down my throat.
It was cool.
âoh.â
I returned to my seat with a can of beer.
âIf you think itâs weird, Iâll dry it again.â
âAh yes.â
I robbed the beer can again.
Bae Se-jin looked at me drinking and looked like he had something to say, but he didnât say anything and turned his head away.
âI thought well.â
I sat down refreshed.
On the TV screen, a skinny guy was opening his mouth.
[Rom J: But the real collaboration artist did the same genre⦠I really respect idols alone.]
[Chungryeo: Haha⦠yes. thank you Because I risked my life to become an idol.]
[VTIC Cheong-ryeo sincere about being an idol! Which artist will collaborate with him?]
â⦠⦠.â
The reactions of the cast members laughing were spread over the air.
Thereâs no way you know that thatâs not a metaphor, but a literal fact.
âYour cheating skills are superb.â
I accepted it generously and quietly drank my beer.
âPopcorn?â
OK.
I ate some of the popcorn that Yujin Cha served as a snack⦠.
â⦠⦠.â
âEat more! are you okay.â
not okay
âSweet.â
I donât know how this guy can eat something like this and not die. Is this what Geunsujeon does?
But rather, Cha Yoo-jin looked carefully at my arm holding the popcorn and said with her eyes shining.
âOh! You have muscles.â
â⦠? Is that so?â
âwhat are you eating?â
âno.â
I didnât eat anything else
No matter how you think about it, there is only one variable.
I chin toward the screen.
âI think it stuck while practicing.â
âOh.â
Well, I finally showed up.
[Vtic Chungryeoâs collaboration artist!]
[??? : Hello.]
Before long, I could see myself scratching up the lack of motivation on the screen.
[Park Moon-dae: This is Testaâs main vocalist Park Moon-dae.]
[TeSTAR!]
Testaâs career is introduced with all kinds of dazzling effects re-entered.
Then, Chungryeo and I pretend to be surprised and start preparing for the stage in a friendly way by shaking hands.
[Chungryeo: It looks like this. Itâs really nice to see you.]
[Park Moon-dae: Yes, senior. Thank you very much.]
[Chungryeo: Haha. Oh, do you think itâs okay to just relax? The atmosphere.]
[Park Moon-dae: Then feel free to talk.]
[Two people who were originally close⦠?]
Looking at it like this, itâs a bit disgusting, but it looks quite warm on the screen.
Internet comments are screaming, of course.
The screams in the comments window that are being plastered with âdestructionâ, âcrazyâ, and âIâm crazyâ⦠Think of it as something you have to bear.
âI end up benefiting.â
I grinded popcorn between my teeth and stared at the TV.
[Chungryeo: Around the time Moondae debuted, I got to know him a bit. Looking at it like this, Iâm looking forward to the stage.]
And the image of me being warmly choreographed and the image of Chung-ryeo being satisfied after matching the choreography passed through editing.
âThe image of a good senior is being scratched away.â
In reality, while punching the choreography in someone elseâs head.
No matter how much you think about it, it is clear that there is muscle there. The power to control the body was important for the choreography that he put in.
It means that the force was applied by compressing it tightly.
Even though it comes out in a friendly way on the screen.
[Chungryeo: Moondae is also progressing smoothly because of his ability to learn dance.]
âIs that really the reason?â
âDonât be fooled. 7 hours a day.â
âoh.â
[Park Moondae: In Moondae⦠? No, please look forward to the stage.]
[Natural idol aegyo??]
âUh ha ha!â
â⦠⦠.â
âDid you save this one too?â
And after an interview video that made use of my mistakes that occurred when I ran out of stamina, the stage finally got on the air.
[Starting now!]
âHey, Moondae right now⦠Are you coming out?â
âokay.â
âOh, letâs see.â
The testers also focused more on the TV with a comfortable posture that seemed like they would post comments every 3 seconds.
But after the stage.
â⦠⦠.â
â⦠⦠.â
-It turned around
-How well
you do it -Is this the taste of K-Popâs 1st group
? A stage like this..ã ã ã
-ã ã ã ã
Both around and on the Internet, everyone was serious about it.
âPark Moon-dae, thatâs why you practice like that⦠.â
âyes.â
And I also realized what effect Cheongryeo was aiming for.
âThe sophistication stands out unbelievably.â
As this program is old, it had a good stage scheme to appeal emotionally to the classic middle-aged to suit the taste of the main audience.
Thatâs not a bad thing, but the fact that everyone is using that method is the point to dig into.
âThis stage pops out alone.â
Thatâs why the impression of Cheongryeo and Park Moondaeâs stage, which made the songs of the early 2000s like the essence of the latest KPOP, doubled.
Wouldnât it stand out if you put a completely different color in a similar color system?
âOf course, if I canât do it, it will only create a sense of incongruity.â
That part was pressed with tremendous stage composition and time.
And the one who chose me⦠First of all, he must have needed someone other than the guys who had already gone to the army to pick up quality with a clenched fist according to his instructions.
âHe must have been trying to get the public opinion to grow the company.â
Just like he admitted last time.
I saw signs of viral luck from LeTi, which has already begun. -Ah, since Testa became independent this time, LeTi invested a lot
.
Itâs the same line, so it seems like theyâre getting involved without cutting it out from the company line now
.
âItâs not a one-pot meal, itâs just next door level? Haha
âAh, but
itâs amazing.
In this way, Testa gradually increases its influence on its own platform by lowering the doubtful resistance to appearing on LeTiâs platform in the future.
The mid- to long-term plan to raise the weight of the agency is being successfully carried out.
âIf I had nothing to eat, honestly, it wouldnât be a very pleasant situation⦠⦠.â
âIt was fun over there⦠?â
â⦠⦠.â
I shrugged my shoulders at Seon Ah-hyunâs question.
Even if it seemed like the opponent had gained a lot.
âIt was rewarding.â
Thatâs right.
âIt would be nice to learn this choreography style once.â
Seon Ah-hyun smiled at my answer.
âYes. thank god. ah! The stage was really cool⦠.â
âThatâs right! The arrangement and composition are interesting, but above all, the stability in harmony and the proficiency in choreography left a deep impression on me.â
âthanks.â
I nodded my head in a rather warm atmosphere.
âIf you want to do more choreography like this⦠I can teach you⦠!â
thatâs kinda
âthanks. Letâs do it sometime when we have time.â
Just donât take heart now.
To be honest, I have expectations that the dance stats will go up if I do more, but the cost performance is not good⦠.
The struggle to raise the dance stat now at the point where you canât record the stats is not efficient compared to the time.
Not one or two other guys who dance well are on the team, but from the point of view of group activities, the other side looks more attractive.
Raising the ability that is already my core to the peak.
therefore⦠.
âIâd rather not know if itâs a singer.â
Iâm a little curious about what will happen if I take âEXâ for my singing ability.
⦠Like Steer Cha Yoo-jinâs talent stats.
I saw Cha Yu-jin sitting next to me, pouring the whole popcorn into her mouth, remembering the flying guy at the time of Waterbomb.
âHmm? Is there something wrong?â
âno.â
âOK. Oh hyung, the stage is great.â
OK.
I turned my head and remembered.
⦠In fact, Cha Yoo-jinâs talent stat has returned to S+.
âMaybe itâs because my memory of the time of steer is very blurred.â
Or, if certain conditions are met when he goes on stage, he might reappear as an EX⦠It bothers me a bit.
âThere are scenes I witnessed.â
-⦠after.
That guy watching Steerâs Cha Yoo-jinâs Waterbomb stage on his smartphone in the living room at night.
Cha Yoo-jin frowned, and she didnât know if she was analyzing or resentful.
âAlthough heâs a good guy on his own.â
As long as Iâm wondering what it would be like to have a hint⦠.
[Survey available!]
[Tip: You can customize the features of with feedback through the survey.]
Not you.
donât do it
âThis bastard is persistent.â
Are you screaming at me for adding a stat-raising feature? I removed the status window without even waving my hand.
âBut itâs Mundaemundae.â
why.
âDo you have a beer in your hand?â
âOh, they say you can drink now.â
âwho?â
âSejin hyung.â
âoh.â
Naturally, I quickly emptied the beer can and put it down, thinking again.
âAnyway, I got something to gain and the preparation is going well.â
When I think of what I gained by walking on this featuring stage as a deal, I actually feel like I want to drink another beer to commemorate it.
I want to put it into action, but⦠.
âBefore that, thereâs something to put on the board.â
ether.
That rookie group that âbenchmarkedâ Testa.
It would be better to take care of that rookie group so that they can no longer rub against Testa.
âItâs good to make the companyâs finances a little stronger.â
I smiled while changing the smartphone screen.
I saw a text message that arrived this morning.
[Spacer Kwon Hee-seung: Hyung, our practice is over haha]
Spacerâs comeback preparations are over.
This is the beginning of the proxy war.
