Debut or Die - Chapter 131
If you can’t debut, you’ll die. The song
‘I like waiting’, performed by the contestants in episode 131 of < Azusa >, has been a stage that has been steadily gaining views to this day with its unique oriental and vague atmosphere.
Of course, besides this song, Testa had quite a few successful team battle stages.
Of course, opinions about the stage they wanted to try again came out in various ways while they were preparing for the concert.
-Anyway, the hero concept seems to be the most appropriate to scale up for concerts!
– To a new new world… I think I’ll do better if I do it all over again… !
-vampire! i want to do it!
– Guys, do you have any desire to sing a song for Vtic? I think it’s possible now… … .
-… Calm down bro.
However, most of them dropped out at the discussion stage. Because the staff has changed too much.
If we didn’t do it right, we could have given the pod of ‘stealing the song from the dropouts’.
However, this song, which was actively pushed by Sejin Keun, did not have such anxiety elements.
-Haha Our members are here as they are, what~
Except for Gold 1, all the members of the Moon Rabbit have successfully debuted as testers.
In addition, Gold 1, who will be debuting soon, even willingly left permission via text message on the premise that they would use it at their own concert as well.
In that way, Testa was able to prepare for the stage with excitement.
And now.
Seven people wearing dark robes appeared on the stage.
The sound of the bill rang.
Ugh-. Woo woo woo-. Woo-woo-woo-.
A graceful and melancholy sound.
It was a sound that everyone in the audience had heard at least once.
At that moment, a person elegantly turned back. Then, fluttering the hem of the scroll, he spurred upside down into the air.
The eerily stretched line leaped higher than before before falling forward.
A splendid golden gongryongpo pattern shone on the fluttering ultramarine blue scroll.
“… … !”
The audience didn’t understand the situation for a while, but started screaming the moment the detail of the rabbit’s mask was caught on the screen.
“evil!”
“crazy!!”
Following the fun party, the missing rabbit appeared.
Even lavishly dressed.
-I am always excited at every corner of the road waiting
for you
. The colorful jade pacifier swayed under the rabbit mask that the members flipped over.
The details of the costumes, which were more dazzling than in Azusa, created beautiful circles and sparkles whenever the tall figures moved.
And Testa brought the strange atmosphere of the time and even the slightly inhumane group dance intact.
No, on the contrary, it became more intense.
-I like waiting.
My waiting is long and
always fun.
Thanks to the increase in the number of people, the formation and overall movement in the chorus became even more magnificent. -I
know you will meet me
when this wait is over.
My heart is already bright .
The face caught on the screen still had a bit of glitter from the unit stage.
Also, the 2nd verse, which was cut due to the performance time issue during < Azusa >, continued without being cut this time.
The new members of the Moon Rabbit sang new verses.
-Every moment that flows again,
my focus is on you, and
Cha Yoo-jin grinned and made a splendid movement with a light foot motion. I went to the end of the scroll and received the choreography.
-It doesn’t matter if you pass by,
because I already knew it, I made sure
to express the stage as if the moon rabbits were overwhelmed and didn’t know what to do, and the audience was equally contagious and enjoyed the stage.
The venue was heated with joy and joy.
And the approaching bridge part. –
A clear sense of
déjà vu saying that you have been waiting for me
too.
While holding the fan he took out from the inside of the scroll.
“Aaaagh!”
“Ugh!”
The screams heard from the surrounding stands were terrifying.
After the choreography of sweeping the floor with the whole body and lowering the rolls, they were now wearing shirts.
Glittering string trinkets dangled from the white shirt tied with a sash.
And the end of the final chorus finally came.
As if waiting for someone with excitement again, the choreography with humming and moving feet continued happily.
-Hum hu hu hum- huhu
DDu-ru Du-ru Du Du
The audience excitedly responded by singing along to the humming.
Ddu-ddu-dudduddudu~
It was a chorus of honest pronunciation without a single mistake.
In an unexpectedly cute situation, the moon rabbits ended the stage with a bigger smile than they had planned.
-Wait for
me, even the last verse of Big Sejin came out in unison.
Keun Se-jin smiled and leaned his pick head on the huge tree trunk that came out onto the overhanging stage with his arms crossed.
Even after the stage went dark, the cheers continued.
Wow!!
In terms of development, it was the timing to herald a new stage as the VCR continued. People were excited about the lingering effects of the previous stage and looked forward to the next stage.
But even after a few seconds, the stage was just blackout.
Some of the cheering spectators soon began to raise their questionable voices.
“hmm?”
“Huh??”
“what?”
Right before people start to stir up, wondering if it was a stage accident.
Suddenly the lights returned to the stage.
pick.
It was just one huge spotlight.
The beam of light is on the protruding stage… It was illuminating a huge stump!
“… !!”
It was where the tree used to be. However, as if the torso had been torn off, the whole stomach had disappeared, leaving only the stump.
And on that stump… Two dark-haired people sat down with their heads bowed.
“… ?!”
A slow solo string instrument flowed. The two slowly lifted their heads.
The face was completely covered by the rabbit mask.
However, the head part of the mask was partially damaged, and paint flowed from that part.
“… … .”
The song started in front of a large audience that had become quiet in an unusual atmosphere.
-Je te donne des fleurs que… .
On the accompaniment of a somewhat grotesque chanson whose pitch is extremely controlled.
The third unit stage started without notice.
* * *
“Hey, aren’t Chungwoo-hyung and Rabin really amazing?”
down the stage again.
Big Se-jin got help from people and hurriedly changed clothes while talking.
“Why all of a sudden.”
“Why, right now, without any choreography, they are just playing with their own arrangements and voices. look at the guts It’s so cool~”
It was a compliment from those who were suddenly absent while breathing heavily.
‘What are you thinking?’
But when I turned my head, I saw a behind-the-scenes camera.
‘also.’
I see. He’s a really consistent guy. I replied in admiration.
“What is it?”
Like I said, Ryu Chung-woo probably even thought of the risk of the characteristic of an ‘idol concert’.
However, Kim Rae-bin probably didn’t have to have the guts.
‘I think the arrangement came out well and the live performance was good, so I thought what was the problem.’
And the arrangement came out really well.
The classic chanson that came out a few decades ago was broken and recombined to turn it into an indie style that is popular on music charts.
If a concert album comes out, it will probably be the best.
Big Sejin smiled at my agreement.
“right? Oh, and of course, Mundae’s guts were amazing too. The ribbon headband was amazing~”
“… … uh yes.”
There is a camera next to it. let’s not forget
“Do you have anything to say to me? Did you see Cowboy?”
“Oh, that was great.”
“Do it again with a more heartfelt feeling~”
I ignored the bullshit and listened to the sound from the stage.
… A bright riff melody that sticks well to the ear on top of a gloomy beat.
-… Scars that don’t dry,
tears harden like scabs,
leaving traces down there…
And I heard rap.
This is because the development of the song without the iconic introduction and chorus was entrusted to rap.
It is a composition that people are familiar with, so it will stick to their ears better.
However, I wondered if the magical power of the song, which only pushes through rap, vocals and atmosphere, would have worked at the concert.
‘I think the atmosphere will play a part.’
I decided to use the set and lighting on the stage like a play to give a strong narrative.
And on the screen, the meaning of the lyrics of the chanson would have appeared black like splashing ink. -I’m
giving flowers
to you whom I love.
Today is a special day ,
laughter is overflowing on the streets
. -Insignificant moments
pile up like dust
and shine like jewels
.
The lyrics, which would have been fresh in the original song, met with the gloomy beat and rap, and came with a different feel.
‘I must have a strong impression.’
And thanks to those lyrics, in fact, in the first draft of the setlist we made, the next song was decided unanimously.
It was decided to carry on the title of the new album.
‘The context of the lyrics was similar.’
I think it was a good composition for the build-up.
However, the company rejected it. It was a matter of stamina and time.
-I think Mr. Rabin and Mr. Chung-woo will collapse?!
– If you do this in a row, I think you will make a mistake while changing clothes. It could be fatal on the new song public stage, so wouldn’t it be better to avoid it as much as possible?
Each and every one of these words fit like a gem, so I kept my mouth shut and agreed.
So, a short talk and audience communication were added, but I wonder if the atmosphere will liven up even if I talk after that song… I don’t know.
‘I think it would be appropriate to have a talk after an exciting or lyrical song.’
The composition of the song was limited, so there was no choice but to regret it.
I clicked my tongue, finished my costume and hair maintenance, and moved down the hallway. And soon after, those who finished the third unit stage joined.
“Oh oh… .”
“Did you like it?”
“huh. It was even better than I thought.”
“I think I expressed everything I wanted to show you well!”
The faces that answered were bright. The response seems to have been very good.
‘The shouts were long.’
The concert was proceeding smoothly without any anxiety factors.
“Go up! Be careful where you sit!”
“yes!”
We were brought up center stage by a lift system, seated in seven chairs side by side.
In front of my eyes, countless lights that filled the huge space shimmered and rippled.
The
cheers were like the sound of light.
‘… This is no joke.’
I did less when I had to perform on stage, but my head was dizzy to sit here with sober mind.
If you think that well over 10,000 people are sitting here and there at every light… no let’s stop
‘It’s difficult to even proceed with the script.’
I confirmed that Ryu Cheng-wu, who was about to start the first talk, lifted the microphone.
[Nice to meet you again, everyone! Are you enjoying the show? Did our unit stage go well?]
[Ohh~ Can you hear me? Everyone is enjoying it. It’s so good!]
[It’s really good!]
I also put my mouth into the microphone.
[Which stage did you like the most?]
All kinds of words rushed here and there like a tide.
entire!
all good!
rabbit!
wire!!
Moondae stage~!
Those expressions without a sharp word rang in my ears.
“… … .”
I inadvertently kept my mouth shut for a moment. … … The prepared answer came a beat late.
[…] I liked everything too.]
[Ah, I’m really impressed~]
[I’m impressed too!]
[This is rarer than you think, everyone.]
After a little teasing, the process continued.
[Now then… < What I want to say to Testa > begins!]
And with the prepared questions, it was the moment when I was about to enter the full-fledged content.
Suddenly, the lights around the stage went dark.
“… ?”
It was unexpected.
I met eyes with the slightly embarrassed members.
‘what?’
‘Is it an accident?’
At that moment, light suddenly poured from behind.
It was the light coming from the screen.
As I reflexively turned my head, an unexpected video was playing on the screen.
… It was Testa’s debut showcase.
[My singer came to me like magic]
[Thank you! I love you!]
The video continued to flow with subtitles.
Activities from the past nine months appeared on the screen over time. From the first airwave stage to the year-end stage, Testa dressed in all sorts of costumes passed through the cut.
And the screen went back to the audience.
Suddenly, people were holding the same light purple cloth in their hands.
that… … It was a slogan.
The phrase came to mind clearly on the huge screen.
[Blowing it to Testa]
[Lovuere’s paper airplane]
Then the accompaniment of a song I already knew suddenly started playing.
… < The magic is you >.
It was Testa’s first fan song.
Today, I feel good, as if
something good will happen.
In the blink of an eye, the concert hall is filled with countless sounds.
If it’s you, everything will be fine.
It’s unfamiliar, but somehow it’ll be good.
It was the sound of ten thousand people singing.
Numerous voices formed a grain and poured from all directions like shooting stars along with lights.
I was out of breath.
