If you don’t debut, you’ll get a fatal disease.
Featured in episode 484.
Musician Usually, it means that a guest participates and sings some parts when a singer sings a song.
Usually, it is mainstream for guests with different attributes from the original singer to participate.
That’s why it gives the album a different fun or strength.
For example, a vocalist for a rapper, a woman for a man, or a senior singer for publicity for juniors who lack recognition.
By the way.
-VTIC Cheong Ryeo Senior: Junior. Are you not interested in featuring?
Could it be that I’m in the VTIC song?
‘…Group 1 male idol to feature in another group 1 male idol song?’
An internet version full of verbal violence immediately comes to mind.
It’s going to be a terrible piece of shit.
Of course, you can pull it off properly with one aggro, but… .
‘why me?’
There’s nothing more to think about.
-I’m sorry, but we have a lot of new responsibilities right now to take on new challenges.
I stopped looking at the status window for a moment and started replying right away.
‘I don’t think he really meant to feature himself.’
The intention was to find out what the ulterior motive was to send such a text message.
And not long after, the phone rang again.
The reply I got was… .
-VTIC Cheong Gyung-ryeo senior: Really?
-VTIC Cheong Gyung-rye senior: You should be interested.
“….”
-VTIC Cheong Ryeo senior: Doesn’t it feel better to help each other rather than debt? It looks good too.
Look at this.
‘Are you telling me not to mention that you’ve helped me a few times lately and put it on debt?’
He’s the guy who tried to break my head, but there’s definitely a price to pay for it cooperatively and voluntarily.
After that, I received a few decisive help.
‘Still, it was both sides.’
Where are you pretending that only you helped me unilaterally? In addition, the back of the head was also beaten a few times.
As if I didn’t understand what he was saying, I started texting in the opposite way.
-There is no need for you to feel that you are in debt
.
‘hmm.’
I don’t think this guy is just trying to scratch.
It’s a bit upsetting, but it’s also quite interesting. I rubbed my chin and edited my reply before sending it.
-What kind of song is it?
I can say these things out of my mouth, but he knows how to tell the difference like water that has been stagnant for decades.
I’m not a clear-headed bastard who thinks I want to be with someone just because I’m close to him.
It is said that there is no way they can ask me to be featured in their album. therefore….
‘This must be a connection.’
Who is it? Hopefully soft and sweet… .
Gyiing-
-VTIC Cheong Ryeo senior: Of course it’s my song.^^
“….”
Are you crazy? this?
I hit the guy on the phone.
“Seniors.”
– Junior.
“Is there anything else you want to explain?”
A small laugh was heard over the phone.
-yes.
Thus, an instant meeting took place.
Although it almost felt like a duel.
* * *
Cheong-rye called me to an outdoor cafe I had already met once.
‘Did they even take over?’
Did they borrow the whole thing so quickly or was it really a scam?
Instead, this time the yellow dog was happily running across the grass.
“Because it’s summer, the grass is growing well, so the beans must have been excited.”
“….”
king!
I set the ball down at my feet and looked at the dog wagging its tail.
what…Is it to throw
‘It’s old.’
As the soft ball swung across the yard in a parabolic arc, the dog ran after the ball.
And I looked at the human on the other side of the road.
“If it’s hot, you can go inside.”
“done.”
The morning was still close to dawn, so it was cool.
I didn’t open my mouth first, but crossed my arms and waited for the guy who made the proposal to explain himself.
because that’s the way
And Dory was kept.
“Well, you know I’m preparing an album first.”
okay.
“You know that all VTIC members enlisted, right?”
uh know
He nodded, and the boy nodded his head disgustingly.
“There is a song I want to use, but there are parts in the bridge that don’t match the range.”
“….”
“Well, given the situation, I think junior is the right person for me. how is it?”
Are you serious?
“Does a guy on vacation not even have a voice?”
Anyone who sees it will think that the main group is going on strike to stop recording.
However, Chung-rye did not blink an eye.
“You can’t engage in profitable activities while serving.”
“The one I made before enlistment must be an exception.”
“Because recording while on vacation is not applicable. It’s difficult when words leak out.”
And smiled softly.
“Your junior will understand.”
“….”
I understand?
I understand that it can be difficult when words leak out… .
‘…ah.’
Damn.
‘It went all the way to this guy’s ears.’
I picked up the ice water and drank it. And he opened his mouth.
“Did you leak it from LeTi?”
Cha Yoo-jin escapes from the dorm.
That’s what happened to Wonder Hall’s agency, which was preparing a reverse viral campaign against us, in a short time.
Was the route possibly LeTi?
‘LeTi invested almost half of the investment in our company.’
In the process, it is an environment where there is no choice but to create a network of contacts among the people concerned. Of course, it means that there was an exchange of manpower.
And the story of Cha Yu-jin’s escape from the dorm might have leaked out there.
However, Chung-rye lightly changed her words.
“hmm. ‘I leaked all the way to LeTi’ is the right expression.”
“….”
“I understand. There must be a lot of things to worry about right now. It’s difficult to even control information, right?”
He pulled his upper body slightly forward and rested his arms on the table.
“I’ll let you know where the rat is when my junior is featuring.”
“….”
“Sounds like a good exchange. how is it?”
hmm.
I set the glass with only ice on the table.
“First, check.”
“hmm?”
“We need to check whether the information about our company you have heard is correct.”
That means it leaked to LeTi.
Cheong-Ryeo, who had been listening quietly, spoke the correct answer comfortably without hesitation.
“Cha Yoo-jin left the dorm.”
“I don’t know why you left.”
“Conflict among members after stressful hospitalization…. Rumors spread like that, but I don’t know.”
Doesn’t that mean I don’t think so?
However, they do not seem to have the slightest doubt that Cha Yu-jin escaped.
‘It kills my confidence.’
It’s good anyway. I know this guy has a good understanding of the situation.
If so, next.
“Why are you using me?”
“….”
“for a moment. Just stop saying I’m the right person for the situation. I know there are many options besides me when it comes to song quality or publicity.”
Right now, starting with the method of recording before enlistment, Ju Dan discovered songs late, and male soloists who are good at singing are the norm.
‘There’s also a way to fill it up with arrangements.’
But why did they bother to use male idols from the first group of their rivals?
“There is a reason why you should use me as a feature.”
“that’s right.”
“…!”
Cheong-rye clearly affirmed.
and laughed out loud
“Can you guess?”
Should I kill
“Oh, did I get it right? My junior also asked if I could get it right. It’s okay if you don’t know.”
You heard the information and I have to guess, but I don’t know where the same ‘get’ it.
‘Looks like I lose when I’m pissed off.’
So I just said it.
“I’m not a mind reader, so how can I know what you’re thinking?”
“hmm.”
“But I can put myself in perspective.”
On the contrary.
‘What if I was Chung Ryeo and had to use Moon Dae Park as a featuring?’
How can you benefit from using the same male idol competitor as a feature?
“What would you do if you had to use me?”
Then you quickly realize
“Whatever you do, take a loss on the cost. It’s controversial, so you have to defend it.”
Rumors of a fandom split fight.
From there, public opinion will fight and emotions will be hurt, but a great plan was needed to defend it.
The time, money and manpower to create that project?
It would be much more profitable to turn that into an album promotion.
Then what should I do?
“therefore…I think about whether I can somehow prevent the controversy in advance.”
There is only one way.
“If we were the same company, there would be no controversy.”
“…!”
Yes.
Seniors and juniors within the same company are inherently more free in featuring.
It means that the range of ‘understanding’ that fans ideologically is a little wider.
In other words, if Testa’s agency ‘Orbit Stars Entertainment’ is completely LeTi’s affiliate… that it is
If you’ve come this far, you can infer the reason for this guy’s proposal in reverse.
creating an atmosphere.
“By putting my name in your activities…Conversely, are you trying to show more clearly that our company rode the LeTi line?”
…However, it is like this.
-?? What is it? Park Moon –
dae -Ah,
it’s
from Testa’s Letty side
.
And laughed.
“You got it right.”
“….”
“As you already know, LeTi is also investing in the platform business. Kind of like online concert broadcasting fan social media.”
Cheong-rye touched her cup of Americano and continued.
“And the importance of platforms in this industry is…Um, juniors must have felt it too.”
“….”
“So in the long run. Right now, I need to raise Image’s weight class a bit more.”
This guy is in fact taking control of his own agency called LeTi.
That’s why they can boldly invest in their albums to further develop the company’s business.
‘For the long-term existence of the group.’
Because you can do whatever you want with your company!
‘Crazy guy.’
“So you want to show off your influence on our company a bit more?”
“hmm? Show off. Isn’t it realistic? Half of the investment wouldn’t have disappeared, junior.”
Cheong-rye stared blankly at me.
“and…If you are a junior, you would know.”
what.
“This is not a one-sided proposition that only benefits LeTi.”
“….”
I cool off the heat of the accident circuit for a while.
Then, calmly started counting again.
‘The benefit of Testa.’
“…Make up for the bad relationship with T1 with LeTi’s platform?”
“I know.”
Even so, it’s obvious that I’ll be pushed back by you and kept in check, but what?
Besides, is it still comparable to the platform of a major broadcaster like T1?
‘But it’s not bad to show you riding the line to some extent in the current situation… .’
I hid my complicated feelings and answered like a knife.
“It’s a rationalization level. As expected, LeTi is an advantage.”
“I thought you would think that way, so I prepared other rewards, right?”
…Cha Yoo-jin’s escape from the dorm.
‘hmm.’
I crossed my arms.
The sound of the scales coming and going seemed to be heard in his ears.
It was natural. It’s not a matter of friendship.
It was then.
Cheongryeo opened her mouth softly again.
“I want to make one thing clear.”
“….”
“I have no intention of doing anything to harm Testa. only….”
Cheong-rye smiled.
“Because I intend to do everything that I can achieve in the given situation.”
“….”
“Your junior is like that too.”
I realized who he was talking about, even though he didn’t bother to name it.
– Ether.
against that rookie.
“….”
“A strategic alliance in that sense.”
Cheong-ryeo held out her hand.
“how is it.”
“….”
I let out a short sigh.
and asked
“What is the deadline?”
“this year.”
The answer came right away.
I shook hands on the table without any fuss.
“Of course, this is my independent judgment, and if it is rejected at the group level after going back and discussing it, it will be over.”
“is it so.”
It’s a puck or something.
“And one more.”
I corrected my posture.
“You know, of course, but featuring in the title song is irrational.”
“hmm?”
“No matter what, just do the b-side songs or the 2nd sub song.”
“….”
This was a natural and commonsense recommendation. Well, it would have been if I hadn’t said it.
However, Chung-rye paused for a moment and then smiled faintly.
“There seems to be a misunderstanding.”
uh?
“I never said I needed a junior featuring on my solo album. You said you needed it for ‘the song you want to use’.”
“….”
“Don’t worry. It won’t be a problem for either side.”
“….”
Come on X feet.
yeah i overestimated it
‘That bastard is not a bastard to lose in his album… .’
In the future, let’s worry about my stamina while taking care of my nails as much as I care about his career.
I gulped down the melted ice and roughly stroked the dog’s scruff. The sound of the dog panting was deafening.
The guy on the other side opened his mouth again.
“Oh and the mouse”
You are just fine.
‘I was going to say it anyway.’
“You don’t have to tell me that.”
“…?”
“I will take care of it.”
I laughed heartily.
It was because he knew that even this guy would not be able to fight easily if he had come this far and got on the flow.
“I’d like to make another condition instead.”
As I came to the appointment and during the conversation, I talked about the conditions that gradually materialized.
Cheong-Ryeo, who was listening, gradually changed her face.
“haha!”
I laughed.
“Your junior is really greedy.”
will you do it alone
I gave the dog a head shake once again and threw the ball back.
“Do you want to cancel?”
“no.”
He stopped laughing and nodded.
“is it so. I will.”
I thought so.
I ended the conversation with him just like that. And in the summer morning sky… .
[brother! Do you have any business? I haven’t been able to contact you lately… .]
Hmm? A pop-up appeared.
‘Oh big moon.’
It’s been a while since I’ve been in touch.
For a while, there was a fuss over Cha Yu-jin, so he didn’t contact me, so he seemed worried.
I tried to contact you again, but it just went well.
After explaining some background, I simply declared the current situation.
‘The system upload has already been completed.’
[Huh?]
‘Some new pop-ups keep popping up. There’s also a survey.’
[…] A survey?]
Yes, I am embarrassed too.
‘Since we’re outside, go back and talk in detail… .’
It was then.
“Um, junior.”
What.
But while he hadn’t responded yet, the feminine voice was heard again.
Including things you couldn’t have imagined.
“A survey?”
“…!!”
what?
I turned my head toward Cheongnyeo as if my neck would break.
He’s exactly me… no.
I was looking at the empty space in front of my eyes.
where the pop-up window is.
“….”
no way.
“Can you see it?”
“yes.”
Cheongryeo raised her hand.
and…I stabbed the pop-up with my index finger.
“It looks good.”
[Aaaaaaaagh!]
…like that.
An unwanted status window counselor was added.
