Episode 260
When Testa is busy preparing for a live broadcast on the last day of the year.
“You started early.”
Homma, an office worker filming Park Moon-dae and Lee Se-jin, clicked her tongue as she watched the second part of the MBS Gayo Daejejeon, in which they will appear, almost come to an end.
It was funny that he barely took a break in front of the TV because he worked overtime right before the New Year, but it was also funny that the program started before 9:00.
And in fact, she didn’t really need to see this from now on.
Because Testa will come out after a while.
‘I’ve already requested data for uploading because I’m working overtime.’
So I’m just watching it now for light interest.
‘I’m a bit curious about what the collaboration with Sun Ah-hyun will be like.’
Of course, it wasn’t a question of skill.
In fact, in the group message room where some of Park Moon-dae’s home horses gathered, there was a bit of talk of knowing.
On the day I saw the MC at SBC, Park Moon-dae showed me the bloody eyes that he showed for a very short time.
‘It rarely happens.’
Park Moon-dae was surprisingly the type to refine himself in front of the camera.
Of course, there were a few times when my eyes didn’t like Lee Se-jin in places like summer packages in the past, but… That was almost the only flaw.
This time too, it was so short that there was no controversy, but the hostesses did not know why, so they analyzed the angle and even found the singer’s seat at that timing.
And confirmed.
-Greetings from Collaboration Kids and Sasumi..
-Hahahahah
-It seems to be imprinted, but please don’t say anything.
So, they already speculated that ‘Ahyeonie seems to have had a hard time preparing for the collaboration stage’, which is quite similar to the truth. that had been reached.
Of course, being conscious of threats such as capture and public opinion, I didn’t specifically mention it and deleted it all, but the office worker was there anyway.
‘Isn’t Seon Ah-hyun’s mental breakdown?’
After speculating on the behind-the-scenes story, I wanted to check out this stage. I was wondering if there would be any tea.
She updated her SNS account once and watched TV indifferently.
[Coming up!]
[Gayo Daejeon special stage]
[Winter boys]
The special stage was the end of part 2.
It was a typical composition of gathering juniors to the songs of the legendary 1st generation KPOP seniors and having them put on an improvised stage.
‘It’s still tacky.’
She watched TV quite skeptically, saying that half of the first-generation seniors had been blown away by drunk driving.
A bit regretful that a member I wasn’t interested in was playing a song I wasn’t interested in.
Soon, the accompaniment mixed with mechanical sounds came out. It was music arranged for a dance performance without singing.
-Wee Oo Wee Oo
I must have spent some money, but the LED signboard and floor with water puddle-like LED effects were quite good.
‘Of course, it will cool down the moment we start dancing.’
The busy guys would have practiced individually, but she must have been able to match the choreography well.
But the moment the choreography starts.
-Oo-u Oo Oo-u Oo
I could feel the quality.
“hmm?”
And she knew the cause right away by using her many years of KPOP experience.
‘It’s because the center did well.’
And the opening center was Seon Ah-hyun.
“oh.”
At the beginning, the style of acrobatic movements using long limbs was different.
Even though the camera couldn’t catch it terribly, in Sun Ah-hyun’s movements, there was even an optical illusion effect that seemed to catch it well.
There was no need for sword dance. The performer in the center was overwhelmingly good, so it seemed like everything was doing well.
no wait
“cancellation.”
However, she gets up from the floor four seconds later, each late or almost falling into the corner, and she clicks her tongue at the mess in the corner.
‘It’s ruined.’
Originally, year-end collaborations where busy people gather and stage one-offs often end up like this, but somehow it felt more clumsy.
It was because of the stark contrast to when Sun Ah-hyun was in the center.
“Is Seon Ah-hyun the only Kung-seung?”
Is this the difference in competence? The office worker looked at the screen with interest.
It seemed that Sun Ah-hyun was the only one who benefited from the fact that the choreography was close to dance rather than a dance for general broadcasting.
He said that he majored in ballet or modern dance, so it seems that he studied for a longer time than the average in the industry.
Just in time, a close-up of Seon Ah-hyun caught on camera filled the screen.
The shining eyes on the beautiful face above the motion of touching the floor with one hand were unexpectedly intense.
I knew she had a pretty face, but this was unexpected.
‘I thought I couldn’t show all my skills because I couldn’t show my strength.’
She corrected her judgment.
Since Lee Se-jin and Park Moon-dae are in the same group, I thought they would join in as kkakdugi, but it seems that they have their own podium.
She watched Sun Ah-hyun’s dance performance until it reached the ending without taking her eyes off the TV.
And if this reaction was changed to something more extreme, it would be the reaction of the viewers.
* * *
“Ahyeon is awesome!”
“It was really cool.”
“Thank you. thank you…!”
Sunahyeon blushed and returned to the waiting room.
“I’m saying this because I don’t have a camera, but wow Ahyeon really did the best~”
“That’s right! My brother did well alone! Other people didn’t… .”
“Hey, that’s a bit.”
The words that did not pass through Cha Yu-jin’s brain were quickly suppressed. Sun Ah-hyun’s face looks like she’s about to shed a cold sweat.
In fact, other guys said they did well during practice. No matter how much their personality has exploded, they are also pros with time.
The problem arose on the spot.
“That’s because the bottom of the bar is a bit slippery….”
Because it was a live broadcast, the water that was sprayed as an effect in the previous stage did not dry properly due to a mistake in calculating the time.
However, since only Seon Ah-hyun moves normally, that will be an excuse for a loser.
“But he didn’t slip!”
“It’s because I’ve practiced before… !”
“As expected, the experience of the past has been accumulated, so you have perfected your current skills! I respect you!”
“that that…uh thank you… .”
Like this.
‘I’m sorry.’
Originally, it would end up with public opinion criticizing the poor working space of the broadcasting station when the facts were revealed after a bit of swearing.
Now that it’s like this, it looks like Seon Ah-hyun will go up the grade alone and end it.
-Seon Ah-hyun is not a popular member of the 1st group for
nothing
. Honestly, isn’t it a combination that can’t be done lol
Checking public opinion right now, it’s flowing in a similar trend as expected.
‘good.’
It was cool and everything was good. Everything is running well.
Except for the fact that this waiting room is not a private room.
“We had a good time too, Mr. Ahyeon!”
“yes yes! thank you… .”
“We used to be similar…Oh Shin-oh, didn’t you cover Battle A senior’s stage back then?”
“It’s not me, it’s Cheongrye hyung. You are our Medan.”
“Uh, that’s right! Anyway, I did something similar, but it reminds me of that time.”
“….”
VTIC shares this waiting room.
And you’re trying to get involved in Testa’s conversation.
‘Why did it end up like this?’
In fact, I can roughly understand why we share a room.
VTIC is actually one top in the industry now, so I can see that they made it uncomfortable by making them use it with seniors.
However, it seems that Testa, who seems friendly, was finally selected as a roommate because he would be embarrassed if a group that was so radically different was attached.
I managed to call those who could go to the American New Year’s Eve program here, so of course I had to be careful.
‘Damn it.’
I understand that, but these idiots seem to have not developed a sense of interpersonal relationships during their 9 years of activity, and they keep trying to interfere with the kids playing.
‘stop.’
However, he is dragging the other guy into the conversation.
“Do you remember my brother? A year-end special stage!”
“huh.”
Cheong-ryeo, who was getting her hair done by a stylist, raised the corners of her mouth.
“You did a lot.”
“….”
To say I have to celebrate the New Year with this bastard. I’d rather be exiled to an outdoor stage.
“Guys, Sejin is coming.”
“Oh!!”
At that time, Liu Cheng-wu, who was sitting on the sofa, called the others together.
On the screen of the smartphone Ryu Cheng-wu was looking at…There was an acting target in progress in the neighborhood next door.
[hello. This is Ahn So-hyun.]
[Hello. This is Testa’s Bae Se-jin.]
Bae Se-jin entered with the only successful actor in ‘Soft and Sweet’.
He looked a bit nervous, but dressed neatly, he definitely looked like an actor.
“Oh, a suit.”
“I didn’t have much time, but I must have had a hard time setting it up.”
“Hyung, you are handsome!”
As expected, Bae Se-jin on the screen continued to proceed calmly while whispering that he would have to wear a suit for the next album.
[We, who have experience in idol activities, stand on the podium together. I think you will have a new feeling to appear at the Drama Awards today. Mr. Sejin!]
[Yes. It’s been a while, so I think I need to do better. Thank you so much for inviting me.]
“Ton-hyung is really good at it…!”
“I know.”
Bae Se-jin had good pronunciation and did not tremble.
[I started acting in dramas after being an idol, but Sejin is the opposite, right? How are your idol activities?]
[Yes. I am a member of a group called Testa. …It is a very enjoyable and rewarding time. I also met a lot of good people.]
“Oh….”
“Ooh, is this our story?”
“…I guess so.”
Bae Se-jin faintly smiled on the small screen. And between the guys who were watching the screen, an embarrassing warmth circulated.
“Oh, you look so sincere.”
“Testa is cool~”
No, you guys, go to your seats.
Without saying a word, I tapped the big Sejin, who had a strange expression on his face. The boy shrugged his shoulders with an embarrassed face.
‘Is time really the answer?’
It seems that they have come to recognize each other. Seeing how these guys live these days, it seems like the relationship is the worst as a roommate.
[Although the field is different, I will try to show a picture that I am not ashamed of either way. Then, I will tell you about the categories we will award today.]
Bae Se-jin finished the rest of the awards well and gave a good closing remark to the extent of ‘I’ll see you again if there is a good opportunity.’
And after a while, when Bae Se-jin arrives through a congested highway.
“…I’m here.”
“Oh oh!”
“Your brother was really cool!”
“It was great.”
“Thank you so much. …But this is originally a short script!”
“No, it’s great! Thanks for talking to us!”
“…! Oh no.”
“Aren’t we?”
“no…That’s right!”
There was a rain of strong welcome greetings. Bae Se-jin’s face reddened.
But that mood didn’t last long.
“Hello~ The award ceremony was great!”
“…ah yes thank you.”
Bae Se-jin greeted VTIC, who pretended to know him, but cast a suspicious gaze and quietly retreated to the testa section of the waiting room.
I must have forgotten the dogfight I had with Cheongryeol.
“brother. Change your clothes first.”
“…yes!”
I spent time with him in the corner of the waiting room.
And the time before Testa’s stage.
“Yes, everyone, are you enjoying the last and most splendid pleasure of the year, Gayo Daejejeon?”
“It will be a new year soon.”
We were called out onto a huge main stage to welcome the new year.
On the way out, it was nice to greet the poor guys who were KO’d by Sun Ah-hyun on purpose, but it seems that other things were the problem for some of them.
“cold.”
“Be quiet, Cha Yujin! Many people celebrating the New Year will see it, so let’s start happily!”
“You’re not even laughing!”
“I will laugh now!”
“stop.”
I grabbed the two guys who were about to fight and gave them a shoulder strap.
On a stage lined with all sorts of idols and singers, we took our seats in front of what seemed to be a lot of moderately familiar light sticks.
‘Even if it’s a direct cam, it should come out well.’
There is a place designated by the production team, but as people flock to it anyway, the boundaries are blurred.
“Wow, a year has already passed~”
“Yeah! I think it went by so fast… .”
We exchanged small words so that the people around us would not be caught by the microphone. Slowly the countdown began to enter.
“3!”
“2!”
“One!”
The pollen explodes and the lighting and sound heighten.
“Happy New Year!!”
pop.
Another strange thing happened to celebrate the new year by being caught in the crowd of people clapping and shouting.
“Testa will show something this year too~”
“I hope it will be a year of healthy and wonderful songs released without accidents!”
Shoulder straps and encouragement came and went wildly. Likewise, as we greeted the light stick that was shaking wildly, this time the light stick shakes like crazy.
‘That arm doesn’t hurt.’
yes what It would have been good.
Then an arm fell over his shoulder.
“Mundae, you worked hard! Let’s work hard and work hard from now on~”
“Please take good care of me…!”
“…okay. Happy New Year.”
I exchanged high fives and good words with the members.
I felt a bit strange.
‘Still, New Year was right.’
There was a considerable risk of falling behind in the middle, but I wondered how I managed to overcome it well and greet the new year as an idol.
At this time last year, I thought this might be the last time.
“…hmm.”
It was kind of fun.
“happy new year!”
The first stage of the new year was very cold, noisy, lively and bright.
* * *
Following the splendid New Year’s countdown. The main stage was quickly being cleared for the next stage.
And Testa was scheduled to wait right below.
Because the next stage was us.
The problem is that I met this guy again when I was coming off the stage and parted ways to go to the bathroom for a while.
“I will see you soon again this year. There are awards ceremonies all the way in January.”
“I guess so.”
it’s clean
If this bastard is going to say such an obvious thing, don’t disturb the person who’s just left on standby… .
“My junior released a new song on January 5th…It was a performance of a new song at the awards ceremony, right? Well, that’s a brave choice.”
“….”
I stopped.
‘A brave choice?’
This nuance… It’s like Testa is making a loss with the new song.
“Oh, I don’t know.”
“….”
“You don’t know. No informant. Yes? Junior, that’s… It will be the biggest problem in the future.”
The blue eyes gleamed slightly. And he spoke in a tone of advice to his juniors.
“I have no connections.”
“….”
“hmm…Call it a New Year’s gift and listen.”
Cheong-rye laughed.
“Do you know that Youngrin is preparing for a promotion?”
“…I did.”
While preparing for the MC last time, I recalled what I heard from Youngrin.
I thought that I would do well whenever I came out because I am the one who gets the best sound recording results among idols and idol-turned-solos.
‘…for a moment.’
no way….
Cheongryeo smiled bitterly.
“I didn’t know when. That’s a surprise sound source for celebrating the new year.”
“…!!”
“January 4th. therefore…It’s a day difference from your junior group.”
oh shit.
