If you can’t debut, you’ll get a fatal disease Episode 399
Of course, neither VTIC nor Testa were in the first group, but in the past, there were other group 1 idols.
‘And now that’s T-Holic.’
I was silent for a while, thinking of the people who collapsed under the sophistry of ‘distress is better than 1 billion’ in our entertainment show.
Thanks to that, as a voluntary penalty, the theme song of the magical girl was aggro.
At that time, they behaved like pure X-pop, but that was all for entertainment purposes, and in fact, they were the ones who enjoyed the ridiculous heyday.
After them, the male group that was properly evaluated as ‘popular’ only managed to maintain its existence when Testa rose.
“Now is the prime base before they enlist.”
“With this title song released on March 22nd, it is scheduled to rank 8th on the music charts for the year.”
Cheong-rye predicted a terrible future without blinking an eye. Judging by the look on his face, he must have restarted a lot because of the T-Holic guys.
But that’s it.
“Let’s make sure of this.”
It was not a situation where he had to constantly clear status ailments over several years.
“What we’re trying to do is a single shot. It’s not that I’m trying to consistently receive the Daesang in the mid- to long-term.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“There is nothing to think about the complicated future.”
Image consumption management Consistency Fandom maintenance Sustainable concept…You don’t need all of this.
Just for this year, you just need to flip the T-Holic.
“Let’s see the quantity game.”
Because I’m going to make a decision this year.
Qing Li stared at me.
“I didn’t expect to believe that a rookie would succeed just by pouring in the amount.”
“If you can’t digest it, you can’t succeed.”
I grinned through my teeth.
“But all the members have been successful. Half of them remember how to succeed.”
“….
These are guys who have been in the first group in the entertainment industry for at least five years and at most several decades. Products that have already been sold.
“You just need to strategize well.”
“Tell me.”
I delivered the way I thought according to the timeline.
two albums.
and fraudulent methods.
“The composition is fine.”
Cheong-ryeo stroked her chin and smiled lightly.
“Assuming you have a good song.”
It was the words of a guy with a brain that accumulated a compressed and accumulated song database for the next 8 years.
I laughed too.
* * *
“I think this far will be useful.”
next day. As soon as he entered the recording studio, he instantly recorded seven songs as he remembered them and turned them into a tentative sound source.
It was a feat that made me want to be human, but now I want to.
I turned and listened to the song.
Some songs I know, some I don’t know.
And what I chose… .
“this.”
“ah.”
It is an R&B song by a certain rapper who ate properly for one season but ends up drunk driving.
“You made a good choice.”
The guy nods his head in agreement. Well, if the reviews are good even though the ‘grabbing ears’ I originally had are gone… .
“I bet you haven’t even thought of this top note yet. I’m going to think about it while drinking in the fall after three years.”
“….”
Was it appropriate in that sense?
It doesn’t matter anyway.
“good. Then arrange this.”
And the one who will entrust this… .
“Are you composing?”
“I know the theory. But creation is the realm of the senses.”
“The b-side songs are good.”
“You don’t have to explain the difference between the title and the track, right?”
OK. I should just give it to the company and let them make it.
‘Still, it would be nice to include a member’s name in the composition and lyrics… .’
And I had to choose one more song. It was when I was shaking my head furiously.
“There’s a member over there who handles songs, right?”
ah.
Anyone can see that this is the story of Kim Rae-bin.
The guy smiles and says,
“Awake it.”
“Because it doesn’t work out on my own.”
“It must be your junior’s heart to try.”
I’m bored to death Shall we spin it 10 times and spit out a list of failures in this guy’s face?
I pressed the ‘Draw 10’ button with a confused face.
“Don’t float. Getting picked so easily… .”
[Leap towards the emergency….]
“…??”
[Hut!]
[★★★★★ Kim Raebin / Main Rapper]
“….”
“….”
“You picked it.”
“….”
Is it real?
Isn’t this system bastard manipulating the probability while looking at the truth?
‘Are you doing this because you were caught bluffing the pad with your parents?’
If you think that’s going to work, you’re really stupid. anyway….
‘I won’t refuse.’
I immediately accepted Kim Rae-bin as a colleague. I had no intention of delaying.
and after a while
Kim Rae-bin, who was scheduled to return to Gangwon-do tonight and rest for two days, was still at the office building because of a meeting with a company person.
“hello!”
“Oh yes.”
And when I found him and pressed the awakening button, Kim Rae-bin’s reaction can be summarized like this.
1. Confusion.
“…! So you’re saying this is a fake world? In that case, Grandma, Grandpa, and older sister, too… Is it fake?”
2. Convince.
“Considering that the act of awakening is possible, there is a high possibility that a person is real!”
And with feedback comes questions, and this cycle repeats itself forever.
“What exactly is the starting point for this phenomenon?”
“…?? If you were flying over the Pacific in a private jet, whose private jet is it?”
don’t hesitate to ask questions
When I came to my senses, I was even robbed of being able to do some kind of telepathy with the ‘real Bakmundae’ for the first time.
‘Really?’
I can’t believe it, but he even delivered a pop-up message from the big moon.
And this guy again… Ask questions.
“Then, between Ryu Gun-woo and Park Moon-dae, which title do you think is more appropriate?”
“…Do what is comfortable for you.”
“…! As expected, even if the period is short, you prefer the title of the period when you have a relationship with many people.”
yeah, think about it as you like.
After a long time, Kim Rae-bin, who adapted to the situation in his own way, seemed to set up complicated theories, reasoning, and formulas in his head.
And the conclusion drawn through the process of understanding again is… .
“If you need even my biased abilities, I will do my best!”
Fortunately, it is productive.
Of course, check once.
I grabbed him by the shoulder.
“Even if you feel like you’re a little infringing on someone else’s rights?”
“…I believe in your explanation that there will be a part that everyone implicitly understands in order to restore the tongue to reality… .”
“okay.”
well thought out
I had a lot of questions, but it’s comfortable to start by putting it right in the beginning.
I tapped him on the shoulder.
“I’m counting on you.”
“I really appreciate you!”
I took the awakened guy and returned to the officetel.
Of course, it is not without side effects.
“Cha Yoo-jin! you!”
“I told Kim Rae-bin to talk plainly! Kim Rae-bin was late!”
“It’s because I was late in registering my birth, but I’m actually older than me, and I can’t excuse the act of asking if that’s not important in Korea!”
“….”
It seemed like I was having a touching reunion with Cha Yoo-jin in my officetel, but at the end it was like this.
I don’t know, but it seems that Cha Yoo-jin made fun of the 17-year-old guy with no memory.
Anyway, Kim Rae-bin regained his composure through Ryu Chung-woo after a while and accepted the melody I offered.
This is a song by the drunk driving rapper.
“I wish I could arrange this with just the melody, but the melody is so kitschy.”
“Yeah, with that top note and riff…What genre are you considering?”
“I wish it was a house.”
Raebin Kim nods his head as before and listens earnestly to the story.
I then threw the bait one more time.
“Rabin. And I’m sorry, but I have to do one more.”
“yes?”
I passed the play to the next file.
“This is it. I hope both songs use similar instruments and go with a serial feel.”
When he played the melody he had chosen, Kim Rae-bin’s face lit up.
Yes, trying to arrange the original song as if it were my own, I suffered from a pang of conscience, but this is not the case.
‘…In fact, this is also true.’
-I adjusted the VTIC comeback schedule, but it didn’t come out this time because of the butterfly effect. Did the composer give up?
what is that
“Well sir.”
Kim Rae-bin, who did not know the additional information that it was a hit melody that someone else would come up with in the future, just nodded passionately.
“Shall we work fast?”
“If possible, start with the latter.”
I smiled.
“Because I’ll pay for that.”
It was the beginning of a series of presentation scenarios.
* * *
LeTi’s rookie boy group who will debut through an in-house survival program.
[Countdown to Wishze’s debut… Does the
music industry change?
-The president gave a tea to the in-heart as
if he was proud of
himself. All the kids have been wearing hats lately, do you dye your hair?
After the survival show, the public temporarily took interest in it, but even after nearly two months, the fan base that was formed did not disperse.
This is because the two deceased figures did not miss the timing.
“Even if I let the public rest, I have to hold on to the fan base.”
“It’s just about live communication and a practice camera.”
In an instant, Wishz’s behind-the-scenes WiTube series was opened.
Even after debuting, I was planning to treat this as a prequel to reality and take care of continuity.
So far so good, but the problem is:
The concept of the debut song.
“The afterlife is too maniac.”
“YES! I am so depressed!”
“Isn’t that kind of atmosphere expected by the existing fan base of this agency? And the magical boy… Well, it must be hard to pass the boss.”
Even though VTIC is behind in the number of awakened people, the situation is tense because Jjambab is the official.
“Wait a moment, we are not the only members, so we should listen to other people’s thoughts.”
So I even asked for an objective evaluation of the two guys who hadn’t awakened from Ryu Cheong-woo’s intervention.
Chae Yul and Shin Oh.
The reaction of the two, whom Park Moon-dae calls “yes man,” was this.
“and…Can’t we do both?”
“I know!”
“….”
It was their fault for expecting something from a rookie who hadn’t even debuted yet.
Park Mun-dae held back his sleep, but Ju-dan broke his jaw.
“Indeed, both the magic academy and the afterlife are settings that are in demand. In addition, the better you use symbols, the more in-depth your work will be.”
“…??”
“Moondae, not Geonwoo hyung. Have you ever thought of something like this?”
And Park Moon-dae realizes the use of the idea of ‘sometimes jackpot’ that Cheong-ryeo said.
50 days after this meeting.
-Are you up?
– It’s out there, it’s awesome.
– Play it right away.
While fans at home and abroad, formed through < Wise >, are counting their hands and waiting, finally, time passes and the music video is finally released.
– What the Hull
people saw was the camera work being sucked into a dark school flooded with meteors and the members standing in various facilities inside the school.
There, there are choreography and close-up scenes going on against the backdrop of strange phenomena.
[One

, now grant my wish]
That’s right. VTIC and Testa created new keywords by weaving together the concepts of their debut songs.
< School ghost story. >
It was the subject of their debut song ‘Wish’.
-I
thought it would be like this, but it’s even better
-I thought the world view would be stunned
, but surprisingly it’s not too bad.
A dance song with strong nuances of thrill, horror, mystery, and hunting. By putting a little bit between the camera work, the overall tone was raised more intensely.
Besides, the background is school.
It may be that likes or dislikes may differ, but there was one certain demand for those who wanted a strong debut.
It wasn’t a popular choice, but that wasn’t the target of this album.
“What we are aiming for is overseas.”
It was the existing KPOP listeners.
When the three beats perfectly fit, from the sharp choreography, strong music, and strong concept, the needs of the consumers were satisfied and the fandom naturally grew.
When added to the start-up advantage of being a large entertainment company, the overseas momentum was growing at a terrifying pace.
“It seems that the company is trying to focus on that side of the schedule, isn’t that what you wanted?”
“okay. nice.”
Thanks to that, they organized their debut activities in a way that thoroughly appealed to the fandom.
There were some fans who were a bit disappointed with the public awareness created by the survival show, but the fandom steadily grew domestically and internationally anyway.
In addition, it was still far from the steamy summer at the end of May, but it was hot enough due to global warming.
Thanks to this, the ghost story concept did not stand out too much and was moderately buried as a seasonal special element.
‘It’s just right.’
The initial release of the album stopped at around 100,000 copies, but considering that it was still before album inflation, it was very good.
It’s even more so when you consider that it’s a debut album.
‘It’s only with the next album that the foreign fandom attracted here starts to buy albums in earnest.’
With songs and concepts that can madly appeal to the global fandom, the group successfully appealed.
Now it was time to move on to the next step.
Park Moon-dae, who came down from the stage at the end of his debut song activity, so Ryu Gun-woo declared to Cheong-ryeo.
“As planned, the next activity is to do it again within a month or two, at the level of a repackage. Don’t say anything else.”
“and?”
Ryu Gun-wu answered while staring blankly at the guy who clearly knew the question.
A strategy close to fraud.
“and…It’s going to change the route. A completely popular song.”
In a slang word, it’s the back of the head.
I gave foreign fans a nuance as if the next album would have a similarly deep world view and intense dance song, and I kept pulling up the album reservation sales… .
‘It’s just throwing out a popular song for domestic use that can go well on the music chart.’
That’s how they aim to maximize album sales and save music charts.
Of course, we were going to minimize the feeling of betrayal with sub songs, but still, if it was a group, we would never have done it as a rookie.
Besides, it doesn’t end here.
“Before that, let’s pull out individual activities as well.”
What is the best way to get the public to listen to a song at least once?
It was to make a mark in the program that the public sees. That is the biggest reason for appearing on variety shows during the comeback season.
promotion.
By the way.
‘That publicity activity… Why don’t we build up about 10 cases per member and drop them all the way like simultaneous bombing?’
All of the members are showing a deep impression through individual activities, and if you promote a new song there.
“I’m sure it will be aggro.”
Park Moon-dae was planning to use the advantage of being a group of eight 1st-tier idol members who knew exactly what their appeal was.
