If I can’t debut, I’ll get sick to death Episode 043
The stage outside the MusicBomb, where the third team match will be held, was overcrowded.
And the majority of the crowd were not the audience, but people who came to see if they could hear the sound from outside.
A college student who squeezed through the crowd to enter the entrance line was dissatisfied with that.
‘Why are they all huddled together when they can’t even come in?’
I couldn’t understand why they were excited about each other even though they couldn’t really see it.
‘Like the last 2nd round, the scale has increased.’
She stood in line in disgust. Looking at the length, it seemed that it would take a year to enter.
‘it’s annoying.’
Behind her were people holding shared slogans or snacks. Coincidentally, the names written on the slogans were the same.
[Park Moondae♡ Debut]
‘… He’s become really popular.’
She pouted as she recalled the last 2nd team fight.
I felt bad because the person sitting next to me was a fan of Moondae Park, but Raebin Kim, whom she liked, was even on the same team as Moondae Park.
‘Why do they say they like that kind of concept?’
she grumbled.
However, it is still denied that they went crazy as soon as the stage ended in the last team match.
Even so, I can’t ridicule Park Moon-dae on the Internet.
‘…Well, it’s fine on stage, so they’re watching.’
While trying to deny it, she took her eyes off Park Moondae’s slogan. I don’t know who picked it, but I was more annoyed because it was pretty.
“Keep order!”
“Don’t push!”
I stood in line according to the number given in advance to enter, but from the middle, people started running one after another. It was a group standing without seats, so the earlier you stand, the better.
She grabbed the fence right in front of the stage.
‘done!!’
I couldn’t help but praise myself for succeeding in the audition application for the 18th time.
It was a splendid achievement that was possible thanks to the rush of applicants for the audition and the production team changed the application again on a first-come, first-served basis.
‘I’ll see it right in front of me.’
My heart was pounding. However, it was only after the time passed that the expectation turned into discomfort that the MC finally entered.
“< Re-listing! Idol Co. > Welcome to the stage of the 3rd team match!”
Explosive cheers rang out with a mixture of relief, joy and annoyance that it was finally starting.
‘Let’s start quickly!!’
She shouted inwardly and gripped the fence.
“The theme of this team match is < Self-made >! All elements of the performance, from song selection to stage setting, were selected and created by the participants themselves!”
‘This must have been done well by Kim Rae-bin!’
Reminds me of my own stocks that can’t do anything but politics. Excited, she cheered like the rest of the audience.
“Also, by analyzing stockholders’ past buying tendencies with big data algorithms, the participants that shareholders like together have become a team!”
At the MC’s words, the audience whispered here and there, asking what bullshit he was talking about.
It’s not that I didn’t understand the words, but the point was why I was doing such a stupid thing to get a separate vote.
Anyway, the MC naturally finished the opening process.
“You seem to have high expectations, then right now! The opening stage will be revealed!”
“Wow!!”
“The song the contestants chose was…Emotional idol Maximite’s < I like waiting >!”
The audience immediately turned their attention to the stage.
His eyes, full of anticipation that his favorite contestant would appear now, turned to the dark stage.
‘It’s better to come out a little later… Oh I don’t know! Come out immediately!!’
As if in return for that thought, a light burst from the stage.
peeing.
‘omg!’
But it wasn’t completely bright.
Strands of thick yellow beam lights shot up from under the stage. Beams of light were still shining dizzy on the dark stage.
At first glance, there was only one huge tree stump on the stage.
And the sound of wind instruments ringing.
Ugh-. Woo woo woo-. Woo-woo-woo-.
It was the sound of the daegeum at the beginning of the Korean traditional music Suyeonjangjigok. An elegant and melancholy note wandered the stage alone.
Then, a person came out from the left corner of the stage.
It was a terrifyingly neat somersault.
A tall man wearing a wooden rabbit mask ran out and spun backwards through the air.
“…!!”
The billing sound is over.
As In-young landed on one leg, the overcoat fluttered along her body, revealing the suit she was wearing underneath.
At that moment, the beam lights that separated the stage completely disappeared.
In the completely darkened stage, a voice rang instead of the sound of the Daegeum.
-My wait is long and
I am always happy, so
it sounded perfect, as if I had made a recording without an accompaniment but without a single pitch.
And now the audience knew whose voice it was.
‘Park Moon-dae… .’
Light returned to the stage with the sound of deep drums.
Dung-Dung Dung Dung! Dung-Dung Dung Dung!
On the stage, five figures wearing wooden rabbit masks were standing in a circle.
Behind them, the brilliant Milky Way was revealed as if it were going to spill over the black stage background.
and choreography.
Squeak.
The movement, which started slowly and sensibly, split the beat and began to become more complex and faster.
It almost seemed like a natural phenomenon.
The speed changes continuously and the timing may not be right, but there was no one who didn’t match the beat or movement.
According to the dance, the outline of the heavy drum sound became sharper, and the modern bass line was heavily balanced behind it.
And the daegeum and calibrated piano sounds started to play on the stairs.
Uhwi- Wiwiwi-
Uhwiuhwi- Wi~~
The moment the drumming was completely part of the sound composition, the five people lifted their rabbit masks to the side of their heads in accordance with the choreography.
At the same time, the person on the far right started singing. It was Park Moon-dae.
– I am
always excited at every corner of the road waiting for you
. Along with the choreography, Keun Se-jin, who turned completely toward the stage from the far left, smiled.
– There is no time for anxiety to come.
Because I already know, you are just
like martial arts, the formation splits and Kim Rae-bin jumps out from behind. – I’m sure that
we will
appear here, that we will meet
, my heart
overflows from place to place like this Ah!
‘Lavin!!’
The college student who was holding the fence cried inwardly. I wanted to scream, but somehow I held back.
And coming to this rap part, there was something that not only her but the majority of the audience clearly noticed.
‘I changed all the lyrics to Korean… ….’
Yes. All the English words mixed with a few words were changed to Korean to match the stage atmosphere.
‘As expected, my child is a genius!’
She cried bitterly inside, saying that she had changed it perfectly. It was a look that I couldn’t imagine that other team members would have changed.
However, as I was sucked into the stage, that impression quickly disappeared behind my head.
-It’s so obvious.
I know
you, you will know me.
With the voice of Gold 1 Ha Il-jun, Se-jin Keun completed the pre-chorus.
-The answer has already been decided,
because the inevitable fate will come~
Sun Ah-hyun came out as the center. The rabbit mask had turned slightly awkwardly and covered his temples.
Still, his face glowed.
‘…He was handsome.’
The college student became angry because he couldn’t bear to have a negative impression after seeing Sun Ah-hyun from a close distance.
Sun Ah-hyun started singing while standing straight and graceful.
-I like waiting.
My waiting is long and
always fun.
‘Huh?’
Right at the chorus, familiar movements began to blend.
It was the hand movements that were the point choreography of the original song.
However, a new foot movement was added to the hand movement to create a strong feeling.
Whiik!
The choreography, in which the body is much larger than the original song, matched with the fluttering scrolls, which was extremely impressive.
‘ah….’
The stage was completed in a historical drama style with a romantic and overwhelming feeling rather than the emotional and simple original song. -I
know you will meet me
when this wait is over.
My heart is already bright.
Park Moon-dae sang the high note at the end of the chorus.
As if the water had drained during the filming, her hair, which had become closer to blonde, had been swept over the mask before she knew it.
‘…What’s with the hair… …. It’s fine.’
She tried hard to hide her excitement, saying that it might be because the stylist gave her stage make-up that was a masterpiece of her life.
And at the end of the note, Park Moon-dae turned his body completely backwards.
‘what?’
The audience, who had been focusing on the movements and facial expressions of the participants, reflexively turned their eyes back.
A huge dark blue trail was drawn on the starlight flowing behind the stage.
“…!”
Suddenly, only string and wind instruments remained.
With that in the background, the dark blue trajectory drew a huge circle.
The circle completed with ink-and-wash painting-like traces, as if drawn with ink, eventually glowed blue.
A round blue light source among the stars. It was the Earth seen from the moon.
Uhuuu- Uhuuu- Uhu Uuu–
The participants gently fell to the floor once and got up in accordance with the melody, and naturally took off the traditional Korean traditional clothes and let them go away.
-A light daydream like a dream
On the way to see you,
the participants stood in complete suits before they knew it.
The body made a short and intense group dance.
The body drew a curve in a clean and gentle manner with a full-body movement that was almost dance-like. The feeling was very strange.
The accompaniment without percussion sounded somewhat sensual.
‘Kim Raebin crazy… ….’
“Oops….”
“…!”
The college student was startled to think it was his own voice, but realized that the sound could be heard from all directions. -The
vivid sense of déjà vu, which says that
you have been waiting for me too,
was changed to “déjà vu,” and the sound became more strange as if swallowing it.
-Facing the moment of fate,
never hesitate!
bang!
At that moment, the percussion instruments came back in the accompaniment.
The slightly blatant sensuality disappeared in an instant.
-I like waiting, because
my waiting is long and
always fun,
Sejin Sejin, who returned from the chorus, came out as the center and took center stage in the complicated choreography.
The choreography became more splendid. -I
know you will meet me
when this wait is over.
My heart is already bright.
And a low hum continued.
-Hum hu hu hum- huhu DDu-ru Du-ru Du Du
It was the melody of the chorus.
With the choreography that moves your feet, it was as if you were waiting for someone and calling with excitement.
The drumbeat of the accompaniment sounded like a heartbeat.
The college student realized belatedly that Moondae Park was putting a note one octave higher on top of this humming.
I got goosebumps.
‘…I thought it was evil.’
She swallowed. On stage, the introductory choreography was being changed once again.
The formation changed constantly, and naturally, the five people stood around a single prop on the stage.
‘uh?’
huge tree stump.
It was the stump of a cassia tree.
Sitting casually on the stump, they immediately took off the western blazers they were wearing and threw them down.
“…!”
While revealing a men’s jacket designed like a shirt, Keun Se-jin looked straight ahead and smiled.
He turned the rabbit mask back to his face and sang the last line.
-wait for me.
The stage ended with the blue light of the earth falling on the moon rabbits who fell asleep sitting on the stump of a cassia tree and leaning on each other.
And cheers so loud that the roof of the studio was smashed came out.
“Wow!!!”
“Kyaaaaaaaaa!!”
“Aww!!”
Under the stage, all sorts of reactions were overflowing, including all sorts of screams and silences.
It was because everyone was excited because they saw a combination of high-ranking participants that they hadn’t expected from the opening and a stage with a high degree of perfection.
In addition, this terribly conceptual stage had something to stimulate the hearts of the fans.
Since it was not possible to interpret everything at once, it made me want to look more times to find hidden elements.
I’m sure there are many audience members who are anxious about counting the days left until the broadcast.
‘It’s all over.’
The college student, who let go of the fence, muttered proudly for nothing.
With the opening cut off like this, it was as if the next guys set up the stage automatically.
She hesitated, but finally admitted her excitement.
‘…Well, the Aktober kids are also good at it.’
On her face as she muttered, “It’s okay to debut with Ryu Cheong-woo and Cha Yu-jin,” the irritation at the entrance was gone.
