Damn Idol - Chapter 136



Only Noblemtl

Fucking Idol Episode 136

I was surprised to feel that way.

I’m the type of person who doesn’t really get excited about achievements other than album sales.

Even single songs are like that.

It feels good when a song does well, but if it’s a single that has nothing to do with the album, it can be annoying.

I feel like the amount of buzz and interest being poured into the single is a waste and I wish it was all put into the album.

I know it’s a stupid thought, but people’s emotions don’t always go as planned.

Especially since I’m a regressor who can’t control my emotions once they burst.

But I’m worried and sad about the ranking of the remix song…

It’s a bit unfamiliar.

But I didn’t hate that unfamiliarity.

Because it feels like I only live once.

At that moment, I saw Choi Jae-seong approaching from afar and a snicker escaped my lips.

When Choi Jae-seong sees my smile, his lips stick out.

“Why are you laughing?”

“Because it suits you well.”

“I almost died from tickling?”

“So who wants to play rock-paper-scissors?”

“Ugh!”

Choi Jae-seong, dressed up as a zombie, imitates a zombie, but it’s not scary at all.

The members who came over after hearing the sound added their words one by one.

“Wow, it’s more real than I thought.”

“Can I touch it?”

“How long did it take to put on makeup?”

The members’ voices are high-pitched.

His face is also flushed, which suggests he is excited.

Because we were filming a music video at Anyang Arts Park.

No, should I say we’re waiting to shoot?

It’s something I’ve experienced countless times, but for Sedalbaekil, this is their first music video shoot.

Because all the music videos for the songs released by Coming Up Next were making films.

Everyone looks so excited and happy.

While I was thinking about that, the MV director who was in charge of today’s filming approached me.

Because of the tight schedule, he arrived at the scene and just said hello and disappeared.

“I heard that this is everyone’s first time filming a music video. Is that right?”

“you’re right.”

“Shh… I won’t wear it.”

I think you were just about to swear?

If there’s one thing I felt again while preparing the music video, it’s that money is the most important thing, and then Billboard is the next best thing.

If either one of them had been missing, I don’t think we would have been able to secure a capable filming crew to accommodate this ridiculous schedule.

We also received permission to film at Anyang Arts Park thanks to Billboard.

“Let’s start filming!”

That’s how the filming of our first music video began.

* * *

Choi Se-hee, who had now made Se-dal-baek-il her home base, was helplessly searching the Internet.

No, to be exact, it’s not like there’s nothing to do.

There is no bait.

Because as long as you have bait, you can do endless things!

‘Two weeks ago was good.’

I loved when Colorful Struggles first hit Billboard.

Because the members regularly released unpublished cuts on their official homepage and in the public domain, and communicated frequently.

Choi Jae-sung also shared a video of On Sae-mi, Lee Ion, and Koo Tae-hwan being embarrassed after making a fuss during the color show practice without telling their older brothers.

A picture of him kneeling and raising both hands was uploaded after being caught in just 10 minutes… … .

[Someday, I will arrest Zion hyung for his vocal deviation (magnifying glass emoticon)!!]

Choi Jae-seong wasn’t discouraged at all.

But what excited fans more than anything were the photos taken at Six Flags, an amusement park in LA.

Although Choi Se-hee was close to being a personal fan of Han Si-on, it was funny to see Lee Ion (with that face) eating an American-style hot dog and Koo Tae-hwan (with that face) riding the carousel.

The sight of all five of them riding the family rides together was really friendly.

But as the era of great riches ended, the era of great poverty arrived.

Nothing is uploaded for two weeks after the music show schedule is released.

A K-pop remix of Colorful Struggles was uploaded like an oasis in the desert, but that was it.

It’s already been licked and licked in nano units, so much so that I can play the video with my eyes closed.

Of course, Titi knew that Sedalbaekil would be working hard to get his cartilage in order for his first official activity.

But still, it’s a pity.

Could you please upload a practice video of the already released K-Pop Struggle (Colorful Struggle K-Pop version)?

“white lead…….”

It was when Choi Se-hee, who seemed to be possessed by Kaonashi, was muttering.

Jiying.

A YouTube alarm popped up on my smartphone screen.

I have quite a few channels subscribed to, so this happens several times a day.

“… … !”

This time it’s special.

A symbol consisting of three irregularly intersecting deep blue circles of different sizes on a pure white background.

Sedalbaekil Official Channel Profile.

I’ve made the same mistake a hundred times in the past two weeks, but this time it’s real.

And the identity of the video is.

[Three Months and One Hundred Days – ‘State of mind’ Official Teaser 1/6]

It was a teaser.

“Huh!”

Choi Se-hee jumped up from her seat and ran to the computer, thinking hard.

State of mind.

This is a song title I’m hearing for the first time.

That means this is another promotional song outside of K-pop Struggle.

In addition, ‘Teaser 1/6’ is also meaningful.

Does this mean the teaser is one sixth of the original song?

No, that’s too weird.

So does that mean there are six teasers?!

‘Oh, but there are five people in Sedalbaegil?’

I don’t know.

But whatever it is, I’m ready to enjoy it.

After what felt like a thousand years of computer booting, Choi Se-hee logged onto YouTube with a devout heart.

Then, I happily watched the number of views rising at a fairly steep rate and clicked on the video.

The beginning of the teaser was a fire demon.

A tree that is burning like a ember.

Wooden buildings crumbling silently in the flames.

A lot of sparks flying in all directions, messing up the screen.

Beyond the screen illuminated with slow and fast technique, the sounds of guns and cannons can be heard, and the screams and shouts of people can be faintly heard.

At that moment, the screen expands.

East, west, south, north.

There wasn’t a single place that was in good condition.

war…….

Or a hillside full of wooden buildings that appears to be in the midst of a civil war or rebellion.

A place that is dreary and bright due to the wild fires that burn the whole world even though it is the time when moonlight should be setting down.

Against the backdrop of all that… … .

A man wearing a mask was standing there.

[… … .]

Tall stature and long limbs.

A charred and torn striped suit that looks like it came straight out of a battlefield.

A pure white mask that even moonlight cannot penetrate.

At that moment.

Wheeeeeeeek-

A long, thin whistle sound was heard from somewhere.

A cool, slow, mournful, long-note whistle, as if comforting a space filled with flames and screams.

The sound seemed like it would stop, but it never stopped, and it seemed like it would disappear, but it never disappeared.

Rather, it seemed like it was gradually revealing its presence.

thud!

The moment the first beat of the drum came in, it changed into a clear melody.

♬♪♪♪♪~

Intense drums.

A clear but messy melody.

Honest lyrics delivered with sticky, intense vocals.

Blurring the boundaries between rap and vocals, stimulating only the listener’s auditory pleasure.

Born under the influence of post-hardcore rock, they are considered the sibling of Southern-influenced Mumble.

Emo hip hop.

As the sound filled the screen, the man raised his pure white hand and took off his mask.

It was Ion.

Lee Ion took off his mask and started dancing to the beat.

The camera walks in time with the slides that fit perfectly to the beat, while the limbs are used extensively to break up the beat.

After about 8 seconds of solo dancing, Ion’s mouth opened.

[Alone- Isolated-]

At that moment, the camera pans up to the sky, revealing three moons floating in the night sky.

The teaser ended with subtitles.

“omg.”

Choi Se-hee belatedly realized the reality and let out a gasp.

I didn’t feel like I was watching a teaser.

I thought I was watching some kind of art film.

It is true that Sedalbaekil has successfully built up awareness and established itself as a popular hit among the public, but it has not yet generated much revenue.

Even the money I earned from music revenue was invested in fan kits.

So, not many people would have thought that the first music video would smell like money.

No, I had more doubts about whether they would even film a music video in the first place.

But the video quality is no joke.

Things like background scale or camera angle… … .

‘Oh, I don’t know.’

I don’t know how to explain it.

I just sprinkled it all.

I think I should let people all over the world watch the teaser and receive a 100-page A4 review with 0% spacing and 10 point font size.

The moment the whistle turned into a beat, I got goosebumps, and the moment Iion took off his mask, I screamed.

I almost lost my mind when I danced against the contrasting backdrop of fire and moonlight.

How about a garment that is tanned and tattered, but still fits perfectly?

If the main character of the teaser was Han Si-on, I would have lost my mind.

‘But why is only Lee Ion coming out?’

There are teasers like this, but they usually leave it unclear who the characters are.

It’s perfect if you dance without taking off your mask.

Does this mean there are multiple teasers?

As I was reading the comments with that thought in mind, something popped into my mind from the teaser screen that I thought was over.

A thick solid line is drawn over ‘See you next time’ that was gently swaying under the three moons.

See you next time

The effect of erasing misspelled words.

The new subtitle that suddenly appears is.

See you in an hour, TT

“?!”

My English isn’t that good, but I know what an hour is.

Aren’t you supposed to meet in an hour?

As expected, when I looked down at the comments, I saw people with good English skills saying the same thing.

That wasn’t all.

-That outfit! The one I was wearing in the K-pop Struggle voting video!!

A lightning bolt strikes my head.

right.

This is the striped suit I was wearing in the Colorful Struggle version vote that was held on the official website.

‘What? Are the timelines connected? Or is there a music video for Colorful Struggles too?’

All sorts of imaginations come to mind.

Looking at the comments section, there are a lot of aggressive comments, but there are also a lot of comments that faithfully interpret the teaser.

-The fact that there are three moons in the sky does not mean that the name of the three-month period is three months, but rather that it is thought of as a different dimension that is not reality…

There are mixed opinions on the interpretation below.

But most people who watched the teaser didn’t really pay attention to the comments.

I was so curious about what would happen in an hour that I kept looking at the clock.

After an hour like that.

[Three Months – ‘State of mind’ Official Teaser 2/6]

“… … !”

The real video has been uploaded.

This makes it certain.

There are six teaser videos.

It seems like they took pictures of each member individually, but the Sedalbaekil that Choi Se-hee knows are not that simple.

There must be some hidden device.

Choi Se-hee immediately played the second teaser.

The main character of the second teaser was Han Si-on.
