If you can’t debut, you’ll get a fatal disease Episode 012
“Yaha~ We really like you, right? There are a lot of talented people and a lot of good-looking people!”
Gold rank Lee Se-jin smiled and said. Everyone was embarrassed, but nodded as if it was true.
It was natural because it was a timing that would not be enough even if everyone pretended to be harmonious. I’m glad that everyone seems to have a minimum of notice.
“But, actor Sejin. Because we have the same name… …. How can we make a difference?”
“yes?”
“Oh, that’s good!”
“right? Then, since you are an actor, how about Sejin Bae?”
The gold level participant who joined first added a smirk.
“Hey, then you’re big, so go big.”
“Big Sejin? Hey good call! How are you? Brother Sejin?”
“….”
Child actor Lee Se-jin bit his lip as if he was holding back something, then spoke.
“I just have a good name.”
“….”
“ah…That’s right.”
The atmosphere instantly cooled. Gold rank Lee Se-jin hurriedly opened his mouth.
“Oh good. Then hyungs and dongsaengs, please call me big Sejin from now on~”
“I like it~”
“Nice nickname!”
The atmosphere was settled with claps and claps. Then, around the time they introduced themselves one by one, the MC picked up the microphone again.
“Did the participants say hello to each other?”
“Please choose your own songs.”
One of the team members murmured earnestly. But it didn’t matter.
“Now…. Let’s start selecting songs!”
“and….”
“Random selection of songs….”
Everyone muttered with a tired expression.
The MC waved his hand and said humorously.
“Ay everyone! It is selected among the hit songs of representative idols of the agency you selected! Don’t be disappointed!”
I thought it was worth doing, but the atmosphere got better.
“Now, the representative song is playing on the sign in front of you. If you want to stop, just press the switch! Then, please step forward to the participant who joined the sign first!”
Team members immediately changed their stance.
“I believe you brother!”
“God Thing is the only way to live!”
“Whew, do I have to show my abilities again?”
The first participant stood in front of the sign with cheers and arrogance.
“Now, get ready…Shoot!”
“Wow!”
A team member made a strange sound and immediately pressed the switch. Next to him, Keun Se-jin (since he brought it on himself, so he will refer to it this way) muttered.
“No, look at it and press it….”
The signs rotated slowly and showed the titles of several songs.
[Sangoon / VTIC]
[LIFE / VTIC]
[Song that will last forever / VTIC]
VTIC. Currently, he is the male idol who sells the most albums.
“Everything is fine…please.”
From the other end, Choi Won-gil could be heard muttering earnestly. I silently waited for the screen to stop.
The screen slowly froze.
[To a new world / Soft and sweet]
“…?”
“…??”
“…!?”
A terrible silence passed.
Except for me, everyone on the team looked at the sign with bonobono eyes.
“Oh Oryunga?”
The team member who touched the sign muttered in a bewildered voice. However, there was no sign from the production team.
I meant real.
“Is that including female idols?”
“Is there a female idol song?”
Not only us, but similar words were coming out here and there.
Of course, the reaction was not as strong as ours.
The team members muttered like they were crazy.
“uh…So, was it a flower fairy?”
“that…Oh, the debut song.”
It is also true that ‘To a New World’ was an innocent and dreamy song claiming to be a flower fairy.
Besides, it’s a debut song. A song that has never been ranked #1 on airwaves before the soft and sweet Byeongmat Cutie concept was taken.
“ah! thank you!”
“oh my god!!”
The surroundings were full of cheers as if a good song had been played. It was only natural that it would have been full of famous songs. The climax came here.
“Aaaaaaa!!”
“brother! brother!!”
The next team on our signboard was VTIC’s ‘Sangun’.
For reference, that song was the title song of the album that won the grand prize at the awards ceremony on the largest music site in Korea two months ago.
I’d say it’s the hottest song among the songs available right now.
Maybe that’s why everyone hugged and didn’t make a fuss. The team member’s rating was low, so the atmosphere improved as if they had already won.
“….”
And our side suddenly became speechless. It seemed that everyone couldn’t get out of the shock.
How am I?
‘I avoid this.’
I was sweeping my chest. It was because I realized that I had chosen the signboard for the agency carelessly.
VTIC’s ‘Sangun’?
I can’t do it.
I was very fortunate to have been able to avoid it.
In that sense, the luck of Daejin right now is perfect.
‘It seems like everyone hasn’t realized it yet.’
Looking at the team members gathered in a gloomy mood, I thought it was better.
If there is a sense of crisis, they will come out a little more cooperatively.
* * *
“You’re not the right height.”
Did I think it would come out cooperatively? I want to correct that I was expecting too much.
The guy who acted as if he had given up had already started to appear.
“Won-Gil, but if I try again….”
“I’ve tried it a few times, but I don’t think I can do it again….”
Choi Won-gil gloomily lowered his head and quietly said:
“It was originally a girl’s song, but I changed it to a boy’s height, so I don’t think it fits well. I think I can do the higher part… ….”
He looks at me while talking like that.
‘You’re asking for my part.’
I was wearing the main vocal badge early along with the enthusiastic support of the three gold-rated people.
Perhaps because of his low grade, Choi Won-gil was speechless and just watched me wear the badge.
Then, when you see a place to stretch your feet, it will be comfortable.
I chuckled.
“Is that so?”
“…!”
A big blow hit my thigh. this is real… ….
“Hey, don’t joke around with the kid. In times like these, you should help him digest his part! what are you doing.”
Jokes at people’s words naturally. It’s not something you’ve done once or twice.
‘I don’t think he’s just a nice guy after all.’
Hiding my doubts, I continued to speak firmly.
“No, it really doesn’t matter if you change it. If you’re going to do it, you should do it at the beginning before learning the choreography.”
“Really?”
“uh.”
I concluded the conversation calmly. Choi Won-gil had a very suspicious expression, but he quickly nodded, fearing that I would change my words.
“Well then, I want to do the refrain of verse 1….”
“good. Then I will do the bridge part.”
“yes?”
“Let’s change parts. That’s why you can’t.”
Choi Won-gil reluctantly nodded. It seemed like a waste to take a part that he said he couldn’t do.
I wanted to take the chorus somehow, so I made a noise, but I guess I didn’t want to let go of my own part.
Originally, I don’t think I was able to capture it this much, but the fall to silver was the detonation point. tasted a bit
Keun Se-jin looked at Choi Won-gil and me alternately, then let out a small, barely audible sigh.
‘It looks like I did the 1st verse chorus in the picture he drew.’
Then, pretending not to be, he continued to speak lively.
“Then, the part goes like this.”
There was one main position left. I could feel the nervousness pretending that the gold level participants were not.
“Now all we have to do is decide on the main dancer.”
Before Sejin could say anything more, I raised my hand.
“Oh, I have an opinion.”
“uh?”
“If everyone likes it, I want to decide the direction of the arrangement before deciding on the main dancer.”
“…uh?”
arrangement.
Even though it was the most important topic, it was a topic that everyone was unconsciously avoiding.
‘To a New World’ is an innocent girl idol song.
And ‘innocent’… …It was a very difficult concept to digest.
People often mistaken that it is easy as long as they are pretty, but that is really a mistake.
Because it is a concept that is not easy to be strong.
In order to be imprinted on the audience with a song like that on the survival stage, you had to be ridiculously good or have a special talent.
Maybe everyone thought that far, so the arrangement opinion started like this.
“a little…How about changing the lyrics and going strong?”
“Did you put in a hard beat?”
“huh. To a new world~ It’s perfect with so much ambition! that’s what you do.”
First Gold… It’s annoying to call it like this. Should I call it Gold 1?
So this was the opinion of Gold 1. It is something that any thoughtful survival contestant would think of.
change intensely.
The problem is that it seems difficult to give this song the feeling of being ‘full of ambition’ as he said.
The lyrics to ‘To a New World’ are as follows.
-At some point, I realized I was wandering
in
an incomplete time.
I
ca
n’t stop this maze
of
time
. Verse 1 verse.
If you want to make it full of ambition, you have to change the lyrics to be more speaker-centered, but then the story of the song will be a mess from the pre-chorus.
This is because the chorus of this song is about asking the other person to come to you quickly.
-One step, two steps
The sound of you coming
is ringing in my ears
Don’t hesitate and reach out your hand
Now I’m going to a new world
Come to me
Come to me
The dazzling paradise by your side
Come to me
Come to me
The melody of love for you (Continues)
“Then, should I also revise the lyric ‘Come to me’ after ‘To a New World’?”
“uh…If you say ‘come to you’… ….”
Gold 1 scratched his head while talking behind his back. He seems to have realized that the problem is not only that.
“Then shouldn’t we fix everything starting with ‘Save Me’?”
“Mmm.”
Yes. Because the chorus is so focused on the listener’s actions, if I correct it by saying that I will approach it quickly, the nuance of the next lyrics will be crushed.
“To go like this, we have to fix the whole thing.”
“yes …But if you change it too much, you may end up getting into equity.”
It was also a question of whether the opposing team or the production crew would allow it to be overhauled.
“….”
The team members were silent, as if they could feel the seriousness on their skin.
Big Sejin quickly intervened and changed the topic.
“Why don’t we discuss arrangements with the teachers before deciding? I think it would be better to pick up the choreography as soon as possible to get feedback! Mundae, are you okay?”
“Oh it’s okay. OK.”
I obediently agreed. Anyway, bringing up the arrangement at this point was intended to shock.
The more desperate the atmosphere is, the less I will come out when I give my opinion on the arrangement.
Of course, even if I didn’t go this far, I thought everyone would understand the situation when watching the choreography video.
“Okay then let’s choreograph!”
When the choreography video was played under the leadership of Keun Se-jin, everyone put their heads on the tablet PC screen.
No matter where they heard the chorus, it seems that no team member remembers the choreography in detail.
However, as expected, within 15 seconds of the choreography video starting, everyone was silent.
“ah….”
