If I can’t debut, I’ll get sick to death Episode 072
I heard that the music video for ‘Magical Boy’ was released last midnight.
However, there was no time to catch up and monitor it. Cha Yoo-jin’s nonsense over there in a dream will prove it.
“hmm…? Is your hair done?”
“My hair was done a while ago and I’m moving in the car now.”
“oh….”
Cha Yoo-jin went back to sleep with a whitish exclamation.
Yes. Since last night, I’ve been moving here and there, removing dirt, polishing, filming, doing interviews… ….
I hadn’t been able to sleep properly for about a month, so it wouldn’t be strange if someone came out who was confused about who this was and where I was.
“This is a showcase now…?”
“Right~”
Seon Ah-hyun asked the manager in the tone of wanting to play Gingamin, and heard the sound of breathing in. It seemed that he was suddenly nervous because it was right in front of him.
“Well, what I prepared for this month…Come and show us everything. No matter where you go, practice doesn’t betray you.”
“Sure~”
“Yes yes!”
Some of the members who were awake responded to the encouragement of Ryu Cheng-wu, whose voice was locked.
And Kim Rae-bin, who was sitting next to me, muttered quietly.
“…In fact, the proportion of practice compared to the period is high, but it is insufficient in terms of absolute amount of practice….”
“….”
As I stared at him in silence, his words changed.
“…I think I can digest the stage with passion enough without losing my mind.”
“okay.”
It was fortunate that he had no social skills, but he was an attentive guy.
* * *
Most of the reporters who attended the showcase had high expectations.
It’s not about Testa’s skills, but about topicality.
‘First of all, I’ll select a certain number of article views.’
‘If it’s ruined, it’s good as it is ruined.’
Reporters taking pictures and writing columns eagerly waited for the showcase to begin.
And in front of and behind the reporters, the shareholders who purchased the stock package from < Azusa > sat down.
Most of them had brought slogans or cheering tools. The shape and color were different because the official light sticks had not yet been released, but the excitement of the fans was felt.
In the overall excited atmosphere, the lights came on on the dark stage and the opening began.
-High five!
Wearing the same baseball uniform she wore in the music video, Testa performed the stage with a more accurate choreography than in the music video. -Like
my feet move and
give a zoom~
To you
Ddan Ddan Daradara DAAN Yeah!
In the choreography to match the pleasant song, jumping movements that move the body with excitement often appeared.
Whiik~!
Every time they turned their bodies to match the whistle or bounced their feet, the concentration on the stage increased dramatically.
‘you’re good.’
‘The song is good too!’
The ad libs overflowing with talent, such as the members playing rock-paper-scissors or saying hello to each other, were cleverly cute.
‘It doesn’t look like a rookie.’
‘People from the audition are good at this.’
Reporters sublimated that favorable sentiment into a fuss and picked the title diligently.
[‘Hi-five’ Testa’s trend starts to prove]
[Testa’s ‘opening home run!’]
In the meantime, the testa members who finished the opening went in for a while. And instead, the MC came out and took the time.
It was a face everyone in the room knew.
“Hello~”
“Uh!!”
While fans were both happy and disgusted by the familiar MC of < Azusa >, Testa frantically changed her clothes under the stage with the help of the staff.
“Evil head!”
“The baseball uniform doesn’t really come off….”
While Testa, barely wearing a school uniform jacket with colorful epaulettes, ran out, the MC skillfully led the audience’s reaction.
“Hey~ It’s been a while, Lord Juju! …uh? Are you not happy? Oh, let’s not do that between us~ We haven’t seen each other for three months! Of course, only Juju-nim saw my face.”
A moment of laughter and mischievous boos and cheers. The MC smiled and introduced the next stage.
“Then, I hope to meet your stocks after a long time. Your stock has soared!”
And on the stage where the lights came on again.
Testa smiled and started dancing to the prelude.
It was “Me”.
“…!!”
The audience was engulfed in a strange nostalgia for how long it had been since the show ended.
Moreover, it was a new feeling to see Testa singing “Me” with a smile while sharing parts with each other.
Because it felt like watching an epilogue after a happy ending, the audience enjoyed the stage with a warm heart.
-What shines on stage today?
it’s me!
Yes, Shining Star you will make.
it’s me!
“Finally wakes up and shines~”
In the end, a chorus continued.
Testa smiled even louder and sang while embarrassed in a good way.
It was a fun time for a popular song that even the reporters who watched < Azusa > nodded their heads.
However, it did not warm everyone’s heart.
A few of them were cold hearted.
‘They’re pretty much done with their songs.’
‘Are you excited to share the part?’
They were fans of the contestants who were eliminated from < Azusa > who attended the showcase with a crooked mind.
Of course, most of the fans of the eliminated contestants were just enjoying the stage.
Even if you weren’t the first participant you liked, there were some members you liked to some extent in Testa.
However, there are always a few exceptions.
“It was the Challenger version! Thank you~”
The incident happened while the members were talking for a while after the next song.
“That version! I really wanted to!”
“Yes, congratulations. Cha Yoo-jin’s children.”
“he.”
Cha Yoo-jin was excited about trying another team’s version of the song 〈Final〉 from the finals, and the other members looked at it as cuter than when there was no camera.
Reporters did not ask particularly malicious questions. However, a few questions were raised that were sharp or a bit pitiful.
“Everyone looks friendly, but who is the member you’re least close with?”
“Umm, preparation for the album was done in a very short period of time. How was that possible?”
“VTIC just made a comeback a few days ago on the 12th. What do you think?”
All of them were in the expected questions, so Ryu Cheng-wu and Keun Se-jin gently blurted out the subject as they threw each other.
“We’re all getting closer~ But while everyone was doing < Azusa >, we developed a strange sense of camaraderie…We are surprised that we became close friends much sooner than expected!”
“We were able to proceed quickly because the company had already prepared everything for the album. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Director Kwak Shin-gyun and his staff.”
“When I meet VTIC sunbaenim, I definitely want to get his album signed! It was on my bucket list!”
It was the moment when the survival interview skills that the members learned to avoid the devil’s editing shined.
And the right questions came up.
“You selected two title songs. What is the charm of ‘Magical Boy’ that is different from the ‘Hi-five’ stage you showed earlier?”
“ah.”
Ryu Cheong-woo reflexively tried to grab the microphone, but after a short decision, he handed the answer to the idea originator, Park Moon-dae.
‘It’s not a strange question, so it’s okay if I ask a liberal arts student.’
It was an act of complete consideration, but Park Moon-dae was not a person who liked interviews very much.
‘That’s great.’
Still, I couldn’t turn the microphone back, so Park Mun-dae calmly picked up the microphone.
“The magical boy….”
It was then.
“…!”
“ah!”
Something translucent bounced violently from a little below the stage and hit Moondae Park’s arm.
“careful…!”
Ryu Chung-woo pulled Park Mun-dae with his quick reflexes, but he couldn’t block it properly because it flew quite fiercely.
“….”
Park Moon-dae looked down at his arm.
it was all wet
‘I threw a bottle of water.’
Water dripped from the splendid epaulets to the sleeves.
Looking at the cold forehead, it seems that the side of the face also splattered a little.
My elbow throbbed a little.
‘He threw it too hard.’
In an instant, the concert hall hardened with embarrassment.
There was all sorts of chatter, worried murmurs, and even small screams from the audience.
And the reporters were happy.
‘This is true.’
‘I don’t know who it is, but I’m doing something~’
Park Moon-dae quickly grasped the situation.
‘First of all, there are no strange ingredients.’
Judging by the fact that his forehead was intact, it was not hydrochloric acid or alcohol. Even in the worst case scenario, the person who threw it would have had some saliva in it.
‘Then I just pass it on.’
All of these accidents were over in 3 seconds when I broke my arm.
This was possible thanks to my adolescence, where I had to always evaluate the situation.
Park Moon-dae smiled.
“You are quick-witted.”
“…!?”
“I think you predicted my answer.”
And took off my jacket. Inside the jacket, a school uniform shirt that fans already knew was revealed.
It was the white summer clothes of the magical boy music video.
“If you look directly at the stage, you can see the differentiated charm of this song. I hope you can check it out… I thought.”
“…ah!”
The members quickly grasped the atmosphere and took off their jackets and threw them aside.
“Then, thanks to your urge, I will start right away. magical boy.”
Park Moon-dae swept his still wet hair from the side and took the microphone back.
Soon the sound of the music box filled the concert hall.
♫♪♩♪-
♫♪♩♪-
♪♩-
Park Mun-dae, with wet hair, opened his mouth in the dreamy purple stage setting.
-I think of you whom I met tomorrow
all day long,
and dream blue dreams like daytime.
And the fans at the scene quickly forgot about the water bottle incident.
* * *
Testa’s showcase was never long, less than an hour. However, before it was over, articles and reviews came up one after another.
Of course, the article mentioning the happening was not omitted.
[Testa’s ‘Magical Boy’ soaked in water]
[The potential of a prepared star. Crisis sublimated into performance]
If you click on an article with such a title, you can see a picture of Park Moon-dae, wearing summer clothes and shaking off the remaining water from his hair.
Or there was a picture of throwing a wet jacket in the water. Water on the epaulet is splashed and reflected in the light, which actually enhances the sense of aesthetics.
Photos matching the water bottle were occasionally uploaded, but most of them were captured from the video he was taking, so the quality of the dynamic scene where the object was inserted was not good.
Still, the response was clear.
-What the hell are you doing, you crazy kid, throwing water bottles at debuting idols?
-That’s what you threw at the face hahahaha If Chungwoo hadn’t pulled it, he’d have been
hit
in the face. Please tell me that I was caught and taken away – I can’t go to the showcase right now and it’s sad to see the stage late, but that
bastard
took my seat?
-ㅠIf I made a mistake, it would have ended in a mess, but it’s fortunate that Mundae handled it well. Really -You must
have been embarrassed, but it’s really amazing that you didn’t show it and passed it on naturally…
-Eh Park Moon-dae I just didn’t notice, so I think I really urged you to
talk? Get lost
-I was impressed to see the members take off their jackets as soon as they saw them. I think the kids get along well
.
Thanks to that, the title appeared briefly in a real-time popular video of the day.
[The true identity of the water bottle that flew to #1 Azusa?]
[The #1 idol who got hit by water at the showcase!]
Funnyly, thanks to the good response, all of these things created a buzz like viral marketing.
“Did you see this?”
And this news reached the ears of VTIC, who had just finished their first week of activities.
