Debut or Die - Chapter 60
Episode 060
The audience caught a glimpse of some characteristics of modern combat uniforms over the dark silhouettes of the participants on stage.
It was the outline of a bulletproof vest or harness.
‘Huh.’
As the excited audience let out an internal scream, a sudden electronic sound rang the venue again.
It was a modulated, androgynous human voice.
[Looking for a match… … ]
[Successful navigation.]
[Location verification.]
[Thirteenth round. We rush… … .]
In line with that voice, all the classic game button sounds composed a new melody.
BBi BBi- Ding dong! BBibibibibiBBi BBi BBi——–!
Participants on the stage moved their bodies to match the sound.
The unnatural movement of the pop reminded me of some kind of doll or robot.
And frieze in an instant. A light was turned on above them, who stopped at the end of their
brief
movement.
-Hold it in your hand, VICTORY
I am the one who makes it
come true.
Sun Ah-hyun, who poses for a typical shot under the lighting, grinned at the end of the verse.
“Aagh!!”
An instant burst of cheers filled the concert hall.
The participants began to move in a flamboyant manner, as if responding to the shouts.
– The stage is always thrilling, and
Kwon Hee-seung sang it after receiving a verse from Sejin, who appeared while sweeping the floor
as if his heart was about to burst .
-I never miss
my WEAPON in my hand,
you know. In the center, complex movements are added in between each time a vocal strikes, and the stiff movements like classic game characters have disappeared before I knew it.
It felt like choosing a character to play in the character window of a recent game due to the synergy with the costume.
-The last SHOT with overflowing adrenaline
and surging POWER
!
-Drink in,
shudder your excitement
, the last ROUND left by your senses!
Rabin Kim’s voice, which was the rare vocalist, jumped over the microphone.
The choreography, in which the dancers shoot in a slightly unique way by pulling their arms in formation, was structured as if they were made to follow the dance.
and the chorus.
Park Moon-dae took a high note on an ascending scale.
-Shoot and blow Last Match-!
I’m the one who laughs at the highlights, so
that VICTORY you hold!
I gave it to you, you will be fine too.
And after the chorus, the madly rising beat dropped temporarily.
thud!
The theme melody flowed again in the heavy sounding bass.
On stage, they set up a tripod and started stamping their feet.
-It’s VICTORY in your hands
-I’m the one who makes it come true
-The CHALLENGER you pick and choose It’s
here right now, it’s me
.
The strength and weakness were differentiated enough to feel a strange sense of intimidation with each bouncing motion.
The audience watched the stage with their mouths open every time they shaved their hair and adjusted their angles.
It was the same for viewers.
The comment section stopped for a while when the stage started, and then it was filled with short words such as ‘crazy’, ‘shor’, and ‘wa’.
Despite the terrible camera work, the quality of the stage was felt.
And entering the second verse, a new formation appeared.
-Your anticipation is always ecstasy,
it feels like my heart stops.
The figures on stage moved to their parts first, forming a formation alone and moving as if they were leading other team members.
It was brutally difficult to do at the same time as live, but it was so cool to watch.
In the bridge, after Kim Rae-bin exchanged short but sophisticated raps with Lee Se-jin’s vocals, the chorus appeared again.
bang!
Here again, the iconic shooting choreography appeared to prevent possible fatigue.
And again, the demo version’s melody and tone that viewers have heard every time on the air is a drop.
-It’s VICTORY in your hand.
I’m the one who realizes it
. -The CHALLENGER you pick and choose.
It’s here right
now, it’s me. Flashy footwork came and went on top of the heavy beat.
Overall, this meticulously structured stage raised the level of concentration by taking care of both the pleasure of seeing and the pleasure of hearing.
Thanks to this, when the stage was over, viewers were plastered with question marks saying that it was over in an instant.
[Take this crown.]
[You’re welcome!]
The end of the stage. Amid a narration similar to the electronic sound at the beginning, the participants who stretched and bent their necks waved their hands and walked back to the stage and disappeared.
An 8-beat melody sounded as if it would cut off.
BBi- BBi- BBibibibibiBBi BBi——–!
Lights burst from behind the stage and their silhouettes slowly disappeared.
Usually choreography ended with a pose. This was a composition close to an adventure number.
However, thanks to this unusual ending, they seemed like characters who disappeared after playing a fun game on stage.
“Wow!!”
Viewers were very excited.
After a while, only words were scattered, and it was only when the inserted interstitial advertisement was over that comments that could be communicated began to run.
-Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

-It reminds me of when I was riding a rabbit, but at that time, I even put it off on the broadcast lol
-I’m not kidding, this must be hard to win
-Wow, but the fucking feet are really cool
-My gums are all dry from splitting
-It must have been a concept game lol Park Moondae Sun Ahyeon has good brains
-Honestly, did you admit that it was the best Azusa stage so far?
-Tears are flowing. Sun Ah-hyun is already an idol, and there is no counterargument. Everyone, don’t be late and buy stocks. └Go
to the fan
site .
I guess I will; What about the next team?
And as viewers expected, the stage of the next team was flat.
This team, which was composed of a relatively low rank, was given a portion to compete in good faith with the main position and strengthen teamwork.
And like the previous team, this team also tried to save the keyword ‘Final’.
However, the lyrics and choreography focused on effort, passion, and urgency became burdensome because they lacked sophistication.
This comparison was more prominent because the previous team mixed humor and fantasy to form the stage.
– He works hard
– He catches my eye, I need to buy him a week
– Bored
– I think everyone is cute and nice~
The second team’s stage ended with somewhat dry reactions.
And in this loose atmosphere, the stage of the last team was revealed.
The preparation process was the same, but it added a bit more to help Ryu Chung-woo overcome his slump.
I don’t know if he actually overcame his slump. However, in the broadcast, he took on the role of leader that he had been refusing to take on in the middle, and it came out as if he performed it brilliantly.
-Yeah, okay, ask me to take a picture of Ryu Chung-woo?
-Yeah, I don’t want to miss military exemption lol
-Cheongwoo Ryu is okay
, but he’s a bit sneering -Muggles will sweep the
votes. Because Ryu Cheng-wu’s good amount wasn’t a day or two.
I don’t know what kind of swearing Ryu would have received if it wasn’t for the former national university, but anyway, it didn’t happen that he crossed the line.
and stage.
-Cha Yoo-jin is going crazy.
– I can’t stop it!
– Ruler of the stage! avatar!
– ㅋ ㅋ ㅋ Only drip comes out
– He’s good at it
– Hmm, trying to win first place, but
Cha Yoo-jin tore the stage again.
In fact, because of his personality, he doesn’t care too much about the sum with other people, so there was nothing that other people’s parts looked good just because of him.
The stage just looked great because Cha Yujin was shining.
It could be seen as a talent optimized for solo or contest programs.
Viewers chatted happily.
– Oh, it was fun.
-It’s fun because the first hit and the last hit are okay
. -Now what’s left?
Again, there was an important announcement from Youngrin, who was in charge of hosting.
“How was the < Final > team match stage prepared by the participants? yes. It seems you enjoyed watching. … Then it is time for the big announcement.”
Youngrin pointed to the screen with her hand.
“This is the announcement of the debut number!”
* * *
Participants who finished the stage came downstairs to prepare for the final stage.
A pop-up popped up asking about a successful stage after a long time, but of course it wasn’t the situation for me to look into it.
Because you never know when your face will be broadcast live.
If there was any announcement on stage, there were cameras following each participant team to capture the reaction.
And at the same time, we are announcing the number of people from above.
“How many do you see?”
“you?”
“I am… Ten people?”
Big Sejin shrugged. The answer seemed a bit mixed with hope. Kim Rae-bin, who had just finished getting her make-up corrected next to her, seriously intervened.
“I think it will be an odd number. Usually, considering the formation of an idol group, people tend to prefer odd numbers.”
“It makes sense.”
that is… It wasn’t like that.
I clicked my tongue inwardly and turned my head. Sun Ah-hyun, who had just finished praying, met her eyes.
“How many do you think there are?”
“Well… oh maybe… 7 people?”
“Seven people?”
“Isn’t that too little?”
I must have picked it up from the people around me, so this guy interrupted and scolded me. Everyone pretended not to, but it seemed to be because they were very nervous.
Seon Ah-hyun shrank, but did not withdraw her opinion.
‘As expected, his personality has changed.’
I shrugged.
“I think 7 people are the most likely. I wish there were more people taking pictures of it.”
“Yes!”
Sun Ah-hyun nodded.
Cha Yoo-jin from the side said, ‘I like even numbers.’ As I listened to the muttering of the same words, the screams of the audience from above echoed all the way down.
“what?”
It was an almost vibrating sound.
While the participants were panicking, Youngrin’s voice from the microphone could be heard all the way down.
“This < Re-listing! The average number of people wishing to debut as chosen by shareholders of “Idol Inc.” That was 6.47!” All the participants hardened. “The result of correcting a number to a natural number through rounding… The final number of debutants is 6!” And again, the stomach became noisy with screams and cursing. “What did you just say?” “6.4… what?" Behind the bewildered voices of the participants, I sighed. 'This is the last episode aggro.' The average number of people who wanted to debut was completely discarded. The number of people wishing to debut could only vote once and could not be modified. Thanks to that, in the early days of the box office, people voted for 'the number of ideal idol groups they think' without thinking. The majority of people chose five by a narrow margin. However, the series was a hit, and the result of the show of tears was the result of the production team trying to increase the number of people. Although the scale is large, it ended up with only one more person when the sample included even one person who was terrorized as a joke in the Internet community where aggressive tendencies gathered. -If you're going to do it in an idiotic way like this, you'll talk a long time ago, motherfuckers hahaha -6.47, so 6 people? 6 people? Crazy bastards haha I shook my head, recalling the already predictable Internet reaction. 'Let's prepare the mind.' Now, after the last stage, it was the final ranking announcement ceremony.
