Debut or Die - Chapter 330
Episode 330
Testa’s global tour.
Although it was not possible to bring the Seoul concert that applied the musical as it is, important key parts and stage equipment were well taken out and put in.
‘Certainly, the planning and AR staff do a good job.’
Now that it was launched as a label, the labor force has become more prominent. It felt like a taste of escape.
For reference, the head of the planning team was the head of the label. It’s a self-protection principle that doesn’t do useless things, but it’s a good sense of experience, so it’s just the right person.
‘I’m not a celebrity, so even if a problem arises, I won’t become a target for arrows.’
I’ve heard some silly noises along the way.
-How about Moondae as the representative?
-yes? Will you do it bro?
-Haha sorry.
There was a guy who came up with an idea that deserves to stay for another 10 years.
‘Idols directly represent the label.’
There are endless things to catch up on. I’d rather build a company and tell him to be the president. I held back a sigh.
Anyway, I’m going to go to the middle of the day… The first performance of the tour was very successful.
[Make me breathe!]
The moment the last encore song was over, we heard cheers for a long time until we came down to the back of the stage drenched in sweat and water.
Wow!
thud!
Cha Yoo-jin, who excitedly jumped down the iron stairs, laughed out loud.
“It’s so much fun! Concerts are the best!”
“That’s right… !”
“I like it better because the stage shines brightly. You must do this a lot!”
It must have been really fun wielding a lightsaber. I just laughed and brushed the water off my hair.
Instead, Sejin Bae, who was wiping his stomach with a towel, awkwardly opened his mouth.
“surely… Concerts have their charm.”
“brother!”
Before his debut, the guy who was always on the verge of death because of his stamina and nervousness is now saying things like that.
‘Was it influenced by the two of you being roommates?’
Cha Yoo-jin exclaimed more excitedly after shouldering with Bae Se-jin.
“Don’t take a week off, it’s okay! Do it again! We do a lot of rehearsals!”
is it?
“We don’t take a week off.”
“Ah??”
I slung the towel over my shoulder.
“We have to camp.”
“… … .”
“… … .”
“yes! We have prepared for you to have a good time!”
Only the workaholic was excited.
no wait Didn’t you all like to work?
“Don’t you want to work?”
“… ! oh no… !”
then what is it
At that time, following Sun Ah-hyun’s words, Bae Se-jin turned his head and muttered.
“If you say so… Usually because of the ridiculous things that happen.”
“… … .”
“Yes, because Moondae Park said something meaningful, everyone was scared~ It was because of Moondaemundae… Wow!”
noisy.
I slapped Sejin’s back. And I immediately regretted the water sticking to my hands. Liu Cheng-wu, who was looking at the situation with happy eyes, opened his mouth.
“Hmm, then, is it a camp instead of an after party after tomorrow’s concert in Osaka?”
“iced coffee… .”
The atmosphere melts away.
However, no one opposes that they will have an after party instead of camp.
… Are you really scared?
‘Did I say it too one-sidedly?’
Come to think of it, I didn’t properly collect opinions. I rubbed the back of my neck and shook my head.
“The back-and-forth… I have to.”
“… !”
I relaxed and laughed.
“It’s been a while since I’ve been to a concert, so I have to commemorate it. Even after receiving the Daesang, I was busy and couldn’t do it properly.”
“Park Moon-dae… .”
“Uh, that’s right… !”
Take a long time… No, because physical strength is important to work together.
Satisfied with the warm atmosphere, I nodded.
“Come on, let’s move.”
“Yeah~”
Soon, Testa started running backstage following the instructions of the staff and leader, listening to uninterrupted shouts.
I let the others go first and slowly got out of bed. Then the big Sejin stuck next to me.
“You know it’s a joke, right? When everyone listens to your opinion, the results are always good, so they follow.”
“… … .”
“You’re not pushing it, are you?”
“okay.”
“That’s right~”
I looked at Sejin the big smile. surely… He was more than quick-witted…
So that makes me more confident.
‘I’m sure he’s waiting.’
That is, until I confessed my circumstances. I’m sure you’re analyzing the sense of incongruity you’ve felt so far.
‘I should also look at the timing during camp.’
Once at work, by the time this guy was completely exhausted and lost his ability to think critically, citing several movies and dramas as examples… .
“Let’s do well with the next album as well.”
okay. You also thought that would be a priority.
‘Let’s do a good job for now.’
The next day’s concert also ended well without a single minor injury in surprisingly good condition.
And the proper and pleasant level of the after party also ended well.
It was an appropriate background.
Thanks to that, everyone attended the camp the next day with a smile on their face.
“Shall we order room service?”
“The manager brought laptops for our composing camp!”
Everyone has a good face from having a good time. Full of passion too.
I didn’t stop these guys from setting the food and seating because they were excited.
On the contrary, I helped him appropriately, and when he relaxed, he went out.
Suite living room. I turned on the prompter in front of the guys sitting on the sofa side by side.
[Testa’s direction]
“Look at that, Hyun-Ahyeon, I prepared a presentation material, I’m really serious.”
“Ugh… .”
Then it’s a job, but is it serious or a joke?
“First, I will tell you the results of our analysis of the current situation.”
Yujin Cha quietly put down the popcorn she was eating.
“As you all know, Testa won the grand prize at five awards this year.”
“Oh oh.”
“But it’s not here that you need to see now.”
“yes?”
I changed the screen.
[Distribution of Lovebirds]
[- > Target Popularity Award Voting Pool]
“This is the result of the Popularity Award voting.”
I reached out.
“As you can see, we won the Popularity Award at three awards ceremonies. What do we have in common?”
“I don’t know! Please tell us!”
You are proud.
“These are places that have blocked overseas voting. The firepower of domestic fans is that Testa is in two fingers among singers who made a comeback this year.”
“and.”
“Mundae, where the hell did you get this?”
“The Internet.”
I spoke again to the open-mouthed bastards.
“However, the moment overseas KPOP fans participate in the vote, it turns over.”
“… VTIC seniors win unconditionally.”
“Yes.”
I changed the graph by voting rank. There are even one or two examples of capturing the voting results where Testa is ranked 3rd or 4th.
“Even I’m being pushed by idols from other big companies.”
“hmm.”
“We are still definitely weak overseas.”
I concluded
I have been brought here to say this.
“So, I want to promote properly with the next album aiming at the global market. How is everyone doing?”
“… … .”
The members exchanged glances with each other or looked at the presentation material screen.
There was no positive affirmation. Even Cha Yu-jin, whose base is the United States, is the same.
I laughed heartily.
‘That’s how it should be.’
No one should fall for such naive words.
Instead, a rebuttal came.
“If I do well in Korea, won’t overseas people recognize me? We’ve seen a lot of cases where we were forced to advance and things didn’t go well.”
right. In fact, we also thought about that, so we didn’t bother with overseas activities until now.
“Since I have already won the Daesang, I think those who know about the domestic situation would have known about it. Isn’t it time to increase the overseas exposure and appeal a little more?”
“hmm… okay.”
Liu Cheng-wu seemed to understand in his own way. But the next guy came in.
“But on the contrary, I don’t think the domestic fans will like it, so it’s a bit like that~”
Keun Sejin said.
“Of course, we will do a lot of W apps and show a lot of our own content, but honestly, there is a sense of distance~ It might not seem like we are loyal to do so right away after receiving the grand prize!”
I crossed my arms and laughed.
“Yes, if the best guys in Korea change their routes to be more foreign-friendly, it’s like toadyism.”
“Ah well, it may not be that far, but we need to know and be considerate of our sad feelings! this is it Even if you know all about it~”
It was an accurate point.
“That’s right.”
I nodded.
“That’s why it’s perfect if we go in the form of being invited.”
“invitation?”
“yes. That’s what America calls us. Then, I can just look at it and increase the exposure.”
“Go liver… .”
It’s not that we’re hungover and anxious to advance to the US, but since they’re calling us, it’s the feeling that we’re going to go and do some activities.
Instead of giving an answer, I just spat out the condition.
“I hope it’s not openly KPOP-related. Because the VTIC seniors have already caught them all.”
“At the same time, I hope that calling us doesn’t seem too artificial.”
“It’s a topical topic, so it’s worth using.”
The members’ faces gradually become blank at the line of words. Yes, it’s tricky, so think about it slowly.
But the moment I shut my mouth, there was a guy who raised his hand right away.
‘oh.’
This is Rabin Kim.
“Even if I tell you my opinion… .”
“Of course not. say.”
“yes! I would like to tell you about a field that I recently had a relationship with and is highly recognized in the United States!”
I laughed heartily. The answer seemed to come out.
“Where?”
“These are the people from ‘Abandoned Factory’, a company in < 127 Section >.”
“… !”
“The newly released game is also a big hit in the US and a movie is being made with that world view, so it might be a good idea for us to try to participate in the OST for that movie!”
“W Movie??”
Of course, opposition poured in here and there.
“Um~ Wouldn’t it be like that again? We didn’t create a separate account for ‘Song of the Stars’ for nothing.”
Of course, getting involved with the game company again is a complete brain teaser.
And to Sejin Bae’s remark, surprisingly, Saejin Bae fires in support.
“okay! And that company is also owned by T1. It seems like it was done too much inside the company… !”
To be honest, if it wasn’t for the company, how could we contact you first, but the image was the most important part.
‘Because if the media play is judged as self-praise, it will only become a joke from then on.’
However, Kim Rae-bin did not withdraw his opinion.
Instead, more information was released.
“… ! It could be. However, from what I have confirmed, the film is being produced in a place other than T1.”
“where?”
“It’s a Hollywood production.”
“… !”
“This is the news I saw in the comments while running the Byeolbyeolgok account. All the gamers were expecting it because it was taken over by ‘Limestone’.”
“Limestone??”
Cha Yoo-jin whistled.
“There’s a hero movie production company! [Insanely famous!]”
Yes. It is a hero movie line under an animation company notorious for its IP business.
All-American businessmen.
I opened my mouth.
“therefore… Through our company, T1, I can make contact quickly and look like I was actually called by an American company.”
Also, since the film production company is another large company with a famous IP, it is also evoked that they are too involved with the game and feel bored with each other.
“yes! Are you okay?”
Are you okay?
It was the best.
‘I caught candidate number 1 right away.’
As expected, this guy has this sense apart from his notice. It’s the sense of choosing the fun things you want to do.
“Like it.”
“… !”
“I wonder how everyone is.”
“I like it!”
“Of course I am too!”
The upvote comes out pretty clearly.
It seemed that many of them were interested because it was a fresh challenge as well as a lot of things they were worried about.
Finally, Sejin also smiled and opened his mouth.
“Okay, let’s try hard~”
“Well then, the conclusion has come.”
We decided to aim to participate in the OST of a Hollywood hero movie, which is like the essence of subculture.
Sporadic applause came from here and there.
“I contacted the person who will be the CEO of Les Label… I’m just saying I’d like to work with you… ?”
“that’s right.”
“and.”
“I liked that game. It’s good to make a good movie.”
Bae Se-jin muttered tremblingly.
“But if you don’t accept… ?”
“So what? Limestone damage.”
“… is it.”
Cha Yoo-jin shrugs, asking why she was so scared when she was a Daesang singer. The atmosphere lightened a bit.
‘good.’
Good timing. I opened my mouth.
“Then, I hope this title also feels like something that people who have been introduced to the original game-based hero movie can enjoy.”
“yes.”
“I think it will be a lot of fun.”
“Um fine.”
I laughed.
“Then, from now on, let’s pick a concept that works well for that side, doesn’t seem to be aiming too much, and expresses Testa’s color well. Implementation.”
“practice… .”
That’s how the brainstorming KPOP hell camp began.
There was just a problem.
Unlike the hobby composition camp, the difference between honor students and inferior students became more pronounced.
