If I can’t debut, I’ll get sick to death Episode 073
Waiting time for a boring music show pre-recording One of the VTIC members who was touching his smartphone according to his taste sang Cheong-ryeo.
What was shown was the 9th most popular video on WeTube in real time.
[#1 idol hit by water at the showcase!]
[On the evening of the 18th, an idol group’s debut showcase was held at Red Square. The audition 〈Idol Co., Ltd.〉 that heated up the internet just a few months ago… ….]
Issue Wetuber was excitedly talking about the showcase water bottle incident with personal opinions.
“Is this him? That Azusa.”
“…ah.”
Cheong-Ryeo looked at the screen and remembered the absurd psychological test.
“Park Moondae.”
[You’re quick-witted.]
Just in time for the video (due to copyright issues), a small, ambiguous direct cam was attached. It was a scene where Park Moon-dae gently took care of the situation.
“Is he really smart?”
“I know.”
“But it’s not enough. It must be the same as us… ….”
The other members who were sneakily watching from the side also intervened and clicked their tongues.
“Has Tnet been acting reckless for a day or two?”
“The index is good, but it’s a pity that we didn’t get first place.”
The tone with a bit of sympathy was premised on the certainty that they would win in the second week.
Actually, I had to do that.
[#1 Night Sign / VTIC]
It was the daily ranking of the largest music site in Korea.
After the music charts were reorganized to make it invisible in real time, it was impossible to break through the existing music charts and immediately take first place unless it was dire.
‘No matter how fast it takes a week.’
The sound source of Testa, which will be released at midnight, was the same.
Then, if Testa’s album sales in the 1st week beat VTIC’s 2nd week with a triple score or more, we could expect to win first place on music shows, but unfortunately, the Initial Chodong period overlapped with VTIC by about a day.
It means that losing is meant to be, unless Testa sets an insane record that surpasses expectations on either side.
Of course, even from an audition, it was absurd to mention a rookie male idol to be #1 on the music charts.
“Ah! If we have time to worry about juniors, let’s do our best!”
“Right!”
VTIC quickly returned to their own interests.
And Cheong-rye put her chin on her chin and thought.
‘…I might lose.’
* * *
The debut showcase ended safely in an enthusiastic atmosphere.
However, there was no special after-party.
“You just debuted, but you can’t appear like a bun on TV. I guess it’s okay to feed it big~”
“Hoppang is delicious!”
“You have to have a good-looking face, you can’t be chubby that makes you want to eat it.”
“aha!”
Cha Yoo-jin was convinced at once. After appreciating Keun Se-jin’s amazing communication skills for a while, I became a subject for conversation again.
“Still, the achievements of Mundae were a real afterthought.”
“That’s right.”
“It was great.”
“…yes. Thank you.”
“Haha, how shy is this guy!”
“….”
I am…From the moment the showcase ended until now, I was listening to the phrase ‘Park Moon-dae’s agility is the best in the world’.
Now I’m more embarrassed than embarrassed.
In particular, it seems that he is doing that on purpose to embarrass him even more.
“Everyone had a hard time, wait…Let’s rest.”
“Yeah!”
“at las.”
Anyway, I was given a short break instead of an after party. At Ryu Chung-woo’s words, the members dispersed to the dorm, showing a wide spectrum of reactions from relief to joy.
FYI, I slept. Lee Se-jin, who shared the same room, also slept and the quality of sleep improved.
‘I miss the trait of not having to sleep.’
But the reality cameras were still rolling. Thanks to that, we had to gather in the living room again after spending a short personal time.
“Looks like everyone had a good rest.”
“lol.”
Anyone could see that Cha Yoo-jin, who had forgotten a snack, smiled.
And we all looked into Ryu Cheong-wu’s smartphone.
“It’s already a public day, so it’s amazing.”
“I’m nervous….”
This is because the debut album sound source is released at midnight.
Why don’t you look at your own and see one together… Maybe it’s because the picture came out warm.
“uh! passed!”
Soon, the smart phone clock unit changed.
[00:00]
“Eh, did the sound source come out?”
“See you now?”
Kim Rae-bin sternly organized it.
“It takes more than an hour to see it on the 24Hits chart.”
“one hour….”
Lee Se-jin disappeared into the kitchen while spitting out a sigh. It looked like he was trying to bring some water.
‘…There’s a high probability that it won’t show up after an hour.’
This is because you have to compete with one-hour scores among other songs that were counted over 24 hours.
Even VTIC was ranked 87th on the 24 hour chart after an hour.
Perhaps Kim Rae-bin was trying to explain the fact, but he made eye contact with me and soon closed his mouth.
“…?”
Was it okay if I explained this time?
Keun Se-jin said with a smile as if to offset the tense atmosphere.
“Then we…How about watching the ‘Magical Boy’ music video first?”
“ah.”
right. Haven’t seen that either yet.
I barely had time to think about it because I had just returned to the dorm and had a break.
‘The reality crew asked me to shoot a reaction for this too.’
“Good idea.”
“Look at the big one!”
Cha Yoo-jin quickly grabbed the remote control and changed the TV screen to WeiTube.
There is no need to search, and the music video is floating at number 1 in real time.
[TeSTAR’s ‘Magical Boy’ Official MV]
“Yes!”
“Wow wow.”
The members stared at the screen as if they didn’t realize it, and finally came to their senses.
“oh. Thumbnail door.”
“It came out well.”
The thumbnail was of Park Moon-dae looking back in front of the classroom window.
Behind the white curtains, the sky dyed in scarlet purple was backlit.
‘Is it the number one treatment?’
I looked at the thumbnails and pressed the play button by manipulating the remote control that Yujin Cha was holding.
“Oh,
the music video for ‘Magical Boy’ played in the background of Yoojin Cha’s flustered voice.
The video started with a thumbnail screen.
[…] ….]
On the other hand, Moondae Park was looking out the window at the setting sun in the empty classroom.
The moment he looks back and makes eye contact with the camera.
the song started
-I think of you whom I met tomorrow
all day long. I dreamed
a blue dream like daytime, and
the screen changed.
The old, broken campus was clearly visible in the midday sun, then suddenly dyed purple and glistening soap bubbles poured down.
♫♪♩♪-♫♪♫♪-♪♩-
And the images of the members doing non-daily actions in the usual places of the school passed each part.
-Even if the world is cold,
dreams are sweet Even if
reality collapses,
dreams are clear
Cha Yoo-jin was sitting alone at the intact lecture table in a ruined classroom.
He lined up animal-shaped wind-up dolls in the corner and turned the spring. The shadows and lighting made the puppet look like a small creature.
– I don’t want to be locked up,
I want to fall asleep.
I draw a dream
But reality is breathing
All the time…
Seon Ah-hyun, who was sitting on the bed in the infirmary, tore off the pillowcase. Instead of cotton, shiny dandelion fluffs protruded from inside and glistened in the air around the bed.
-All that time.
Maybe it was necessary.
Magic to go to the future.
So I,
Liu Cheng-wu, shot the flowers in the flower bed with a toy gun. A beam of light bursts instead of a baby bomb or water, and blue petals soar.
And the zoom that unfolds on the rooftop where the purple sunset is setting.
-Cast a spell
Make a wish come
true true true
-Fall into the future quietly
-Cast a spell
Make a dream come
true true true
-Sleep in a dream blue
In the interlude that comes after the chorus, the beat splits a bit more and there is a splendid dance break continued
The rooftop in the middle of the day was cross-edited, and the subtlety of the purple background scene deepened.
“Everyone had a hard time with that new makeup.”
“that’s right! Everyone, if you look carefully… There is a difference in the outfit and makeup between this photo taken during the day and the one taken at sunset!”
Big Sejin explained to the camera.
It was true.
The daytime background was closer to a bare face, and the sunset background was something like glitter and blush under the eyes.
As for the costume, I added more accessories when taking the sunset background.
‘To film that in one day, everyone must have been dying.’
Fortunately, even though the hard work was worth it, the cut came out well.
♫♪♩♪-♫♪♫♪-♪♩-
Then the second verse goes in.
After the strange finger movements that seemed to be hypnotic, Kim Rae-bin came out from behind.
And he rapped melodies in a very strange rhythm that was slow and complex.
What intersects is Kim Rae-bin, who is sitting on a pile of broken cabinets in the hallway and throws and catches an awl.
“oh!”
“Your voice is good.”
“…thank you.”
Kim Rae-bin was a bit shy, but he couldn’t hide his pride and answered.
“But how did you pick something bloody like an awl, Mr. Lavin?”
“…Because it’s cute… …?”
“…?”
Sejin’s mouth fell shut at the answer beyond his imagination. I answered happily instead.
“Let’s say yes.”
“okay. You’re so cute, Rabin.”
I felt relieved after confirming that the color of the music video was okay, so the reactions became a bit more comfortable.
On the screen that followed, Lee Se-jin appeared as the last batter.
Lee Se-jin was standing inside the school building, looking at the main entrance. The campus was visible through the glass door.
And the bridge before the last chorus that flows out.
The music box sound, which is a riff melody, is lowered in tone, and the vocal melody follows on top of it.
– What you can’t hide even if you hide
is probably magic.
Breathing and trembling
dreams.
Lee Se-jin broke the glass door.
At that moment, along with the sound of the film running, the cuts began to churn.
A strange whisper passed by, like a tape being turned backwards, and then a cut without a song was inserted.
Moondae Park walked into the campus from outside the school.
[…] …]
Eventually, Park Mun-dae, who stopped in front of the entrance, stretched out both hands and grabbed the handle. and.
Click.
padlocked
…Click.
As the film rotates, the final chorus burst out along with the choreography.
-Cast a spell
Make a wish come
true true true
-Sleep into the future and quietly
-Cast a spell
Make a dream come
true true true
-Fall into a dream
.
The railings surrounding the rooftop were broken, forming transparent crystals. And like a prism, it distorted the light.
The choreography became more complex and the curves stronger, like the light that disturbs the background.
♫♪♩♪-♫♪♫♪-♪♩-
The end of the choreography. The members naturally changed the formation to a circle. The song ended the moment they laid their heads on the roof in a circle.
Took.
Purple soap bubbles popped out.
[…] ….]
and a black screen that appears.
In the midst of the slowly arranged Inst of ‘Magical Boy’, the classic ending credits went up like a short film.
Only then did the members speak again.
“and!!”
“Did it turn out so well?”
“Thank you, Director.”
“I think it came out great….”
It has become a strange situation where no one accepts each other’s words because they do it simultaneously.
But no one cared and chatted happily.
“It’s very, very meaningful and it’s fun.”
“I think fans will have fun discovering the various details.”
“Ah, we were good, but I hope the fans like it too~”
The atmosphere became warmer than it could have been.
‘Since I got off to a good start, I’m just excited.’
Thanks to that, even when checking the music charts, the tension was not so high that it was uncomfortable.
and result.
“and! It entered
the 85th and 88th ranks.
‘…One song is slightly higher than VTIC.’
It was more than a quick idea to open with the popularity of the audition that was popular nationwide.
‘You’re crazy.’
However, perhaps because there are more people who are more accustomed to words such as ‘real-time entry No. 1’, the members were just happy.
Even if you know it in your head, what you can see right away is that it is in the top 80.
So a more violent reaction erupted next.
“All of our songs….”
“omg.”
On other music sites where real-time charts are still alive, Testa’s title song showed off its spirit by taking first place and second place side by side.
[1st place Hi-five / Testa] new!
[2nd Place Magical Boy / Testa] new!
[3rd place Night Sign / VTIC] ▼2
[…] ….]
All 4 songs from this album were even included in the 7th place.
Of course, after a while, it would be pushed back by VTIC in an instant. Still, it was crazy momentum.
Only then did the members, who realized it, continued to look at their smartphone screens in astonishment.
“Let’s capture Kae.”
“That’s a good idea.”
It was a good signal that erupted from the beginning of the activity drama, which had not yet appeared on a music broadcast.
