Debut or Die - Chapter 158
If I can’t debut, I’ll get sick to death Episode 158
First of all, Raebin Kim brought a comment that received a lot of recommendations, so let’s talk about this as an indicator for figures.
“As you said, let’s look at it objectively. Right now, ‘Arrival’ has a higher music chart than that song. Isn’t this an objective and dispassionate public evaluation?”
But Kim Rae-bin was not fooled.
“It seems to be a problem of sample differences arising from differences in awareness. We need an evaluation made after actually listening to both songs without personal feelings… !”
“… … .”
That’s why I’d like to hear my opinion. I sighed and answered slowly.
“okay… I get it. To me, ‘Arrival’ is a better song.”
“Is that so?”
“But it’s true that the song over there is more popular.”
“… … !”
“It’s an easy and comfortable song to listen to.”
Kim Rae-bin clasped his hands on his knees. I was given an explanation.
“But that’s because the purpose is different. We made the song with performance as our top priority in the first place.”
“but… … .”
“It means you don’t have to compare. No song is always perfect in every way. Objective comparison is difficult. Time and taste… There is also a matter of luck.”
“… … yes.”
Kim Rae-bin was still intimidated, but nodded as if he understood what it meant.
I chuckled.
“Are you that embarrassed?”
“yes? … yes.”
Kim Rae-bin hesitated before adding.
“I am… Don’t you often receive criticism that you are not good at speaking and are not the type that is suitable for living in a community?”
oh my.
“So, if the contribution is lacking in terms of producing, I thought it would be right to develop other capabilities that can help the group.”
“hmm.”
Kim Rae-bin probably needed to be convinced that he was contributing to the album even if he couldn’t perform right now.
‘Then is this method the best?’
I remembered a plan I had been preparing.
But before we talk about this, let’s get things right first.
“first… I don’t think you’re particularly bad at community life.”
“I’ve often heard that you can’t read the atmosphere… … .”
okay. You must have heard it a lot in your life.
However, in interpersonal relationships, he is not stubborn or has a bad temper, so there was no problem with his work.
“okay? Has any of the members ever been angry with you while promoting as a testa?”
“… no.”
“Look. It’s not a problem, so don’t worry about that.”
“That’s right!”
Kim Rae-bin’s expression brightened a little.
“And the production problem… hmm. wait for a sec.”
I turned on my smartphone and called up information about Golden Age’s new songs listed on the music site.
It is the copyright holder’s item.
“Here are the composers and arrangers.”
“yes.”
What I had confirmed in advance was explained in my mouth.
“The composer is an external freelancer… The arrangers are not this team of composers. It belongs to the Golden Age company.”
“Um yes.”
“Do you understand what that means?”
“Contemporary composition is a production of a multi-tasking and comprehensive nature, so it is excessive self-consciousness to place responsibility on oneself… ?”
An unexpected answer came out.
“… No, you can make a direct comparison if you want.”
I tapped the composer on the screen.
“Actually, I got some songs from this composer.”
“… !! How did you proceed?”
“Lately. well.”
Cheong-rye’s words bothered me, so when I started promoting, I already contacted him and received a few songs.
As a candidate for an activity song to be written in a repackage album that will follow a short term after this album activity.
“Golden Age got good grades with this song, so they will definitely receive another song from the same composer. And the arrangement will be done by the company again.”
“… no way.”
“okay.”
Now you noticed.
“If you arrange a song by the same composer, you can make a direct comparison that you want.”
“… … !”
“Who wrote the music of this popular composer… I mean, it was arranged better.”
It was the conclusion I came to after listening to all the composer’s candidate songs.
‘The melody is well chosen, but the structure is weak.’
To put it bluntly, the degree of perfection has fallen. It seemed like it would take a lot of washing.
Kim Rae-bin, who seemed to be imagining with his mouth open for a moment what would happen, suddenly came to his senses and said.
“But if you do it wrong, it can become too direct a confrontational structure, which can be disadvantageous to each other… … .”
what Did you think that far?
I smiled. Because it was a little odd.
As Rabin Kim said, if the frame itself went wrong, Testa could suffer losses.
No, if you see that agency, you can go further and try to drive public opinion by saying that Testa stole the Golden Age composer.
But in reality it will be difficult.
“are you okay. It can’t even be a confrontation.”
“yes?”
“We’re not the only ones writing songs for that composer.”
I turned off my smartphone screen.
“Because the VTIC unit and Youngrin sunbaenim will also use that composer for the next album.”
“… … !”
Yes.
Eating this alone makes you sick. I had to attract people to join me.
‘It was good that I got the Young Rin number during that doppelganger variety show.’
… The cheongnyeo side was a little uncomfortable, but it was better to burn it once to make it not to be stupid.
Anyway, both of them said okay without saying anything.
– Oh, that would be fun. Well thought of it ^^
– Thank you for introducing a good composer. The work on the new album will gain momentum.
Top tiers with different affiliations, years, and images got along well with each other, so it would be difficult to unilaterally weave that composer into the Golden Age.
It’s just that the composer’s name value will increase.
It’s not like the Gold 1 company bought the composer so that he couldn’t get the song as advised by Cheong-ryeo, isn’t this a very conscientious act?
‘That’s how you grab someone by the collar without understanding.’
It was self-employed.
I smiled and crossed my arms.
“Within this year, there will be four or five songs by the same composer each arranged individually. It will be a real sword fight.”
“… … .”
Kim Rae-bin swallowed.
“Would you like to try?”
“yes… !”
good. It seems that his motivation has returned as the plate is made. Kim Rae-bin’s eyes were shining with enthusiasm.
“Of course, that doesn’t mean you have to use that composer as an active song. Since we’re uploading it among the candidates, let’s discuss it with the members and choose the popular one.”
“All right!”
I nodded.
“okay. Then go to sleep.”
“yes… ?”
Kim Rae-bin was taken aback by the sudden finish. I spoke silently.
“Even now, I only get four and a half hours of sleep.”
“Oops sorry! I did a lot of damage during my brother’s bedtime… .”
“It’s okay, let’s go to sleep.”
After drying Kim Rae-bin, I immediately turned off the lights in the room.
I had to get up early tomorrow morning, put on Kim Rae-bin, who had uncomfortable feet, and practice what kind of stage I would show in Japan.
‘Should I burn it on a tiger doll?’
I fell asleep hoping that I had come up with a useful idea, whether it was a foot company or a member.
It was three days before the Japanese TV stage recording.

It is a weekday morning in August when all students are on vacation.
The high school student, who played WeTube on the computer while being blown by the wind of the air conditioner, found a music video that was still floating at the top of the popular video.
[TeSTAR ‘Present’ Official MV]
“… … .”
In fact, this high school boy has already seen this music video.
All because of the teaser.
My older sister gently coaxed me into saying that the final song of Park Moon-dae, the groom of the month of May, from < The Singer I Made >, which left a huge impression on high school students, would be here.
-Hey, look at this
-Ah, what is
it
? … .
-This word of mouth has gone viral and now has a lot of views? You should watch it soon
, so the high school students saw the teaser for Gearco and became interested in the enormous scale.
That’s how my sister’s business was successful.
However, the high school student was in extreme denial.
‘… I was wondering if it was arranged, so I watched it.’
The high school student struggled to think that he was just curious about the other version of the final song sung by ‘Groom in May’.
‘But honestly, objectively, the quality of the video was correct. Isn’t it inevitable that it’ll be fun because it’s like a trailer for a massive Netflix drama?’
Even by the standards of high school students, the music video was funnier than the teaser.
This is because the music video is much shorter and full of excitement.
‘The sense of speed was amazing.’
The high school student was a bit conflicted, then clicked on the music video and played it.
‘What if I see what I’ve seen once, what can I do?’
Fortunately, the video started right away without ads.
[Cheonghogapsa Cheong comes out and obeys the command.]
The music video is about Ryu Cheong-wu, who was ordered by the king to catch the ‘most harmful monster’, and goes around Joseon looking for the monsters with his 〈Records of the Exploration of Ghosts〉.
Disguised as a monster, each member interacts with Ryu Cheng-wu, giving them a clue about the ‘most harmful monster’ or being expelled.
– The day I finally came, the day
I
finally came, here today,
especially every time the chorus goes in, the intense choreography cut and the dynamic story cut intersect, the feeling of being driven is great.
As the interim choreography scenes heighten the atmosphere, Ryu Cheong-woo finally meets Kim Rae-bin in the cave.
Kim Rae-bin tried to find out the identity of the ‘most harmful monster’ by using lantern lights floating all over his cave.
At this time, the song’s own part intersects together, and it gave a very strange feeling that Kim Rae-bin of the story cut digested the part while looking directly at the camera.
Lanterns in the cave shone with all sorts of neon lights.
like a warning light.
-You appeared now
Warning Again Warning
Slowly thrilling
approaching
flickering lanterns creating a strange light, the camera turned round to illuminate Ryu Cheng-wu.
-I
stopped the song.
Then there was a very brief past cutscene of screaming and running.
[Aaaaaa!!]
[Uhhhhh… … .]
It was a quadruped.
The beast, whose shape was difficult to see due to the cut passing in an instant, changed into a child when the sun rose.
On top of that, the current figure of Ryu Cheng-wu in the cave was crossed.
Liu Cheng-wu realized that the ‘most harmful monster’ was himself.
The song exploded again.
– Even if you lower your head, you can’t escape. Look carefully.
Now,
the thrill follows.
The choreography cut that reached its climax for tens of seconds, including the final dance break, rushed without a story.
And it wasn’t until the song’s climax ended that the story cut appeared again.
[…] … ]
dark night. Liu Cheng-wu, who was staring at the camera, turned his back and disappeared into the forest.
The song ended with the sound of taepyeongso.
[Coming]
And the ending credits went up.
It was with unfamiliar background music.
-Laying in bed late at night
and thinking about it, maybe
you
weren’t me in the first place
. It was a song about a breakup. At first glance, it sounded like a love song, but after this story, it sounded very meaningful.
It was Ryu Chung-woo’s solo song ‘Truth’.
There were a lot of fans and YouTubers who were looking for and analyzing the music videos and teasers from beginning to end, but high school students didn’t know that and didn’t care much.
I just thought, admiring that ‘the video has arrived’.
‘There were even cookies.’
In fact, when the end credits ended, another video came out.
It was the true identity of the king who showed only his legs, which he solemnly ordered Ryu Chung-woo in the first music video scene.
[Are you fooling me?]
It was Sejin Lee with fox ears on his head.
The cookie video ended with Lee Se-jin, who had been laughing heartily, crushing her huge tail decoration and lying down on the throne.
High school students who didn’t know the fans who shuddered at the shock and cuteness of this ending just licked their lips.
‘Isn’t this kind of thing made by Netplus?’
Even though they thought it would have been better if it was done by a real actor instead of an idol, the high school student couldn’t find any awkwardness or flaws in the video.
‘… I’m good at it”
The boy finally admitted once again and got out of the music video screen.
No, I tried to get out, but it was stuck and I couldn’t go back.
‘Oh really.’
The high school student got sick of it and kept pressing the back button one after another, but accidentally checked the internet page his older sister had left, thanks to the address that had been quickly skipped back.
It was an internet trace of my sister, which is not usually left because I browsed through the secret page.
“what??”
On the blue social media page… There was a GIF of Moondae Park looking back in a classroom.

Magic Boy MV Behind Cut (1) Park Moondae
(edited GIF)
#Park Moondae #Blonde Moondae #Geummundaeng # Magical Boy
————————=
Park Mun-dae, a black-haired man wearing a white summer dress in front of a bright red, yellow and purple sky, turned to blonde when he turned around.
It was a very well done gif.
“… … .”
For reference, the account introductory phrase written on the profile was ‘a blood alliance to love only golden moon’.
‘This or that looks the same.’
The high school boy grumbled, but he concluded that black hair was easier to look at than blonde hair.
‘Is this a music video too? X, I feel dirty.’
The high school student searched for ‘Testa’ on Witube in spite of being sarcastic.
However, there was something that caught my eye before the ‘Magical Boy’ music video.
It was a video that was uploaded yesterday.
[Testa’s visit to Japanese broadcasting CUT]
‘Huh?’
The thumbnail was a Japanese comedian with his mouth wide open.
‘Ah, I can’t stand this.’
I was aiming for gukppong. The high school boy giggled and clicked on it.
