Debut or Die - Chapter 48
If you can’t debut, you’ll get a fatal disease Episode 048
The team of Huskiyah, led by Ryu Cheong-woo, practiced in a bloody atmosphere. It was because of the endless conflict between the team members.
[Choi Won-gil: I didn’t expect (Lee Se-jin) to react so sensitively.]
[Ki Jeong-gyun: Is there such a thing as victim consciousness?]
[Ryu Chung-woo: … … Whoa.]
The intermittent interviews and BGM created an uncomfortable atmosphere.
The practice did not stop because there were no participants without ambition. But it didn’t even go well.
And instead of the parties to this conflict, the production team gave all the growth stories to Cha Yoo-jin, who was alienated from the conflict.
Park Moon-dae appeared here. To put it bluntly, it was the role of an advisor to help the protagonist grow.
[Park Moon-dae: Are you having a hard time?]
And the scene of Park Moon-dae talking to Cha Yu-jin in various places and giving him snacks passed quickly.
Like a mother giving rice cakes to a tiger, they only supplied snacks to end the situation quickly, but thanks to Cha Yoo-jin’s interview, “Moon-dae hyung helped me,” those scenes looked pretty good.
-??
– What is it lol
– Are you two close?
Fans of Park Moon-dae were also taken aback because it was a picture he hadn’t seen very often.
In the last 2nd team match, he became on the same team as Cha Yu-jin and the stage was booming, but there was no personal friendship.
Besides, why did he leave Ryu Cheong-woo, a proven leader, and take refuge in my child’s direction?
But doubts were quickly dispelled. Because cute extra rice cakes were always welcome.
-She
takes care of food
amazingly
.
On the screen, Cha Yoo-jin successfully finished the stage by appealing to her passion for focusing on the stage instead of her usual innocent image.
He might get some criticism for eating the entire amount alone, but he left a clearer impression than that. It was a narrative of inner growth and desperation.
Park Moon-dae, watching Cha Yu-jin snatching the amount he wanted to receive, cooled down, but his fans just enjoyed the cute Moon-dae Park’s good-natured and reliable appearance on the air.
Even the reaction of the general audience was good.
– Park Moon-dae is more mature than I thought.
– There must be a reason why he gets along well with his teammates.
└ That’s right. My first impression was that it looked very spoiled, but it was surprising.
It was a cut that appeared as a side leg of Cha Yu-jin, who blatantly took care of the amount, so Cha Yu-jin took all the aggro.
Only a good image remained for Park Moon-dae.
Thanks to this, Park Moon-dae, who was browsing the Internet the day after episode 10 aired, felt complicated and delicate. It’s because I made a sound of full stomach.
‘It’s good to constantly make up for the initial image. but… After all, I couldn’t catch the desperation.’
I needed that image that Yujin Cha took. But the only stage left was the final.
And in the finals, there was no reason for the production team to give Park Moon-dae a narrative.
Until now, I only gave out characters that would make the show interesting.
‘Should I give up?’
Park Moon-dae, who had clicked his tongue, organized the shooting schedule that was not long away in his head.
Then, suddenly, I caught an event that was going to take place right after the shoot.
‘Wait a minute… Is it possible?’
Of course, the broadcast was completely dependent on the editing of the production team. However, it was worth trying to select cuts that could be used as content.
Park Moon-dae hardened his heart.
‘There’s nothing wrong with trying.’
By the way, she didn’t notice that Ahyeon Seon was trying to say let’s eat steamed chicken, but when she saw herself lost in thought, she quietly put down her smartphone.

“Wow, it’s a little hot now.”
Entering the filming set, Sejin muttered loudly.
It was already the end of April. The first filming started in winter, but time passed quickly.
‘I’ve completely adapted.’
Moving the body of ‘Park Moon-dae’, who is no longer unfamiliar, and changing into a uniform, I thought about it.
At that time, the big Se-jin, who glanced this way, spoke up.
“Uh, you look tall?”
“what?”
“Rather than working hard. I also bulked up a bit.”
I was suddenly reminded of those words.
Over the past few months, I’ve grown quite a bit in height, and my muscles have been moderately attached, so now there’s almost no difference in size from my original body.
“I heard that he is tall even when he is over 21 years old, but this is the first time I have seen him in person.”
“I am also the first.”
“Oh, yes.”
I shrugged and let it go.
‘About 177.’
Recalling the height I had measured a few days ago, I sat in the waiting room at the set. It was rather awkward that there were no unfamiliar faces around.
“Hello Moondae”
“Hyung hyung!”
‘Even if I go back to my original body, I’ll need a period of adaptation.’
It was amazing. I gave a rough greeting and took out my smartphone.
I had to return it soon, so I was going to turn off the power in advance.
However, a new alarm popped up on my smartphone. It came from an anonymous social media account for public opinion exploration.
When I clicked on it inertia, an article popped up with shares just folded in units of 10,000.
————=
[The original trot singer sang by Moondae posted a post on social media (link)]
——– —————-=
It wasn’t uncommon.
As the program became overheated, unrelated celebrities were also mentioning the participants, so when I
moved to the link, a photo of the trot singer’s face with a big smile and a heart on her finger appeared on social media.
In the background, I could see the TV screen broadcasting the scene of ‘Park Moon-dae’ singing trot.
————=
[Park Moon-dae, a participant in < Azusa > who sang my song beautifully! I’m rooting for you^^ I hope you debut! #Azusa #Let’s go to a duet #Trot cool]
————————=
“… … .”
what… It’s good that the original singer was satisfied. Because the fans seem to enjoy it too.
It was time to think so and turn the page. Another post by a trot singer passed by on the screen. I posted a big picture this time.
‘for a moment.’
That’s a picture I took.
When I checked again, the photo of the event I took a few years ago was correct.
It was a cut that I released on the fansite out of conscience because it didn’t sell. The natural light on this day was good, so the quality of the photos was good, so I just wanted to post them on social media.
But somehow it felt awkward. I realized the cause as I turned off my smartphone.
‘Wasn’t I not here now?’
Obviously, as soon as I entered Park Moon-dae’s body, I originally traced my body’s movements. But that meant I didn’t have my identity at all.
But what about the photos I took?
‘It’s strange.’
I went straight to Witube and hit the search bar. And I searched for the most famous fan cam I’ve ever taken.
[Youngrin Legend Fan Cam]
This is a direct cam where judge Youngrin passionately completes the stage in the heavy rain when she was unknown. With this, Youngrin prepared a foothold for the rice cake table.
Then I saw a familiar thumbnail at the top of WeTube.
‘there is.’
there was a video
Of course, it wasn’t my original account.
I deleted the account where I posted unsold data when I started taking the public exam. therefore… At this point, it was about last year.
Even now, the uploader’s comment was pinned to the top of the video comment window.
-The original is deleted and uploaded. If you register yourself, I will delete it.
“… … .”
This is almost certain.
‘I’m not there, but the data I took are still there.’
It was kind of creepy. It was even more so that if I failed to become an idol within a short period of time, I had a condition that would cause me to die.
‘Has the karma of selling real data returned?’
It was a half-joking idea, but it doesn’t sound like a joke.
‘What the hell are you?’
I turned on the status window and asked, but there was no answer. I feel like a fool.
What’s the purpose of this bastard?
“Hey what are you doing?”
“for a moment. Think about it.”
Once I got out of my mind. I found a contradiction in the middle of the day, but right now, the shooting is right in front of me.
‘So I’ll find out more after work.’
I immediately finished my thoughts and returned the smartphone.
If you pay attention to something else, you will only become prey for controversy over your attitude. I had to clear my head.
Fortunately, I didn’t even have to try. As soon as the filming started, the MC took out the situation with a sudden development.
“< Re-listing! Idol Inc > Welcome to the long-awaited 3rd ranking announcement
!
“But one thing before we get to know your rank! There’s something you need to find out first. It is your sincerity.”
Right away, ‘that’ content came. I guessed the MC’s next words.
‘They’ll tell you to see how serious you are about this audition. < Casting Call > Ro.’
Yes. This 〈Idol Co., Ltd.〉 series traditionally puts another stimulating content at this point.
It’s called ‘Casting Call’.
To sum it up in a word, it was a place where Tnet and moderately reputable agencies came to cast participants.
However, if the agency was chosen, the program had to be dropped.
Therefore, it is unlikely that participants who have performed remarkably well in the program thus far will leave.
It is because the contestants are not stupid and can debut as a group with guaranteed recognition right here, but there is no reason to go to an ambiguous agency.
In the end, there is no case where a guy worthy of debuting will escape, so it just means that it is an event that adds tension to the program.
‘But I can take advantage of that tension.’
So, I plan to appeal to this program as much as I can by inducing conversation as much as possible.
… Of course, it’s more likely to get cut in the editing.
“… … Swallow ”
I heard the sound of swallowing from the side. Most of them probably guessed the ‘casting call’ from the timing and MC’s words.
And it was also a moment that would have been conflicting enough if it had been in the middle or lower ranks at the last ranking announcement.
The probability of debuting here is low, so you’ll want to grab another rope.
It’s an image that makes me break out ‘I want to start a new challenge because the agency that recommended me is my wannabe from a long time ago. In the future, I will show you a better image of me that has matured.”
‘Actually, in the lower ranks, there have been steady breakers.’
Last season, I think we carried around 5 people openly. Considering that the broadcast ended early right after, it was a very wise stop loss. Only the debut ticket rank was watered down.
The MC sighed until the participants were out of breath before opening their mouths.
“Barba~”
The light on the large screen in front came on.
‘Does the agency list appear?’
By the time the whispers around them mentioning the ‘casting call’ increased, the MC spread his arms wide and continued.
“Psychological test!”
“?!?”
“Through the prepared personality type test, we will match the KPOP concept that is perfect for you
.” .’ A sound rang out.
“… … .”
I was bitterly cold.
‘Was it just for entertainment?’
Or, based on that data, we can decide the next team fight again.
Anyway, one thing’s for sure… that I was caught
‘shit.’
The participants followed the staff’s guidance and moved to a small room in groups of ten.
It was good that I didn’t have to wait thanks to the order of names, but the aftertaste was bad because of string hits.
‘I only drank kimchi soup for no reason.’
The room we entered was a converted one-man practice booth, and a camera was installed in the middle of a small desk for two people.
It was a space for a typical single angle cut.
I sighed and went back to the other side and sat down in front of the desk. There was a question and answer table floating on the pre-set tablet.
These days, social media emotional design has lowered the credibility.
‘It looks like a form floating around on the Internet.’
Presuming that it was outsourced in a hurry, I chose the tuk-tuk multiple-choice question.
