Damn Idol - Chapter 163

Fucking Idol Episode 163

* * *

Those gathered in the CASE hall looked around and realized that they were fans of Han Si-on.

Because the agency limited the size of the cheerleading flags, many were holding small cheerleading flags, most of which had Han Si-on’s name written on them.

‘That means… … .’

It is said that Han Si-on’s fan signing event will be held in this hall.

Looking from the entrance, I saw that the MICE center had various halls other than CASE, such as ECO and PAPER.

In that case, other members’ fan signing events will be held there.

What turned their guesses into certainty was the familiar intro playing on the empty stage.

“I Never Played With You” by Shins.

When Coming Up Next aired, the public’s reaction to this song was something like, ‘Han Si-on is good at this too.’

But not among idol fans.

This stage was quite a hot topic, and many people became fans of Han Si-on through this song.

That’s understandable, it transcends the original song.

The original song is so exaggerated that it could make even a thousand-year-old’s heart grow cold, but Han Si-on perfectly maintained the line.

And yet, he perfectly performed the roles of 7 people.

If you’re still bored, there’s a clip floating around about this legend from the Stone Plate cover world.

That was the moment.

Finally, Han Si-on appeared on stage.

Han Si-on, who emerged from the screams of 350 people, shows off his dancing and singing with a big smile.

Light skinship, wild jokes

Time spent together acting with boring expressions

Still, the choreography of the synths hasn’t changed much.

We need to be careful because this can easily be seen as mocking our seniors.

However, while keeping the core choreography the same, the added movements and the different beats really stand out.

‘If you think about it… … .’

Han Shion is really strange.

When Han Si-on first appeared in the mass media, many people said that he would not be able to hang out with idols.

That’s understandable, because the song that first introduced the name Hanshion to people was Melisma’s.

A song that was released in the 1940s and was rearranged into Chicago blues, earning it the nickname “Hip-Sion.”

But that wasn’t the end of Han Shion.

There is a talent that is endless no matter how much you dig into it.

There is nothing he can’t do, from singing, composing, arranging, to conceptualizing.

He even dances well.

Unlike singing, dancing doesn’t have its own identity, but the ability to pull it off is amazing.

But Han Si-on’s fans didn’t like him because of his talent.

There is something special about Han Si-on.

To be precise, there is something special about Han Si-on on stage.

I pretended it was nothing, but I-

Not even once

I never played a joke

Offstage, he appears to be indifferent to everything.

Sometimes he looks depressed, and sometimes he looks indifferent.

But the moment you step on stage, everything changes.

As if I would die if I failed on this stage.

As if this song were sung at the end of one’s life.

The sight of everything being burned like that.

That’s why I really liked Han Shi-on.

And that was also the driving force that kept Han Shion going during his long regression.

The best on stage and the cheers off stage.

Because that was Han Si-on’s only realism.

Not even once

I never played a joke

As the chorus ends, the choreography pours out.

* * *

“hello.”

When the song ends and we say our goodbyes, all kinds of screams erupt.

Hello, I missed you, and even cheering messages with my name on them.

“Thank you so much for your support.”

I’m serious.

Because the people gathered here are the ones who want to save me.

I’m usually a reserved person, but I become emotional as soon as I go on stage.

So, without realizing it, I ended up talking a lot and answering fans’ questions.

The MICE center is a place built for international conferences and discussions, and has well-controlled sound reverberation.

What this means is that if you speak in the audience, you will be heard clearly on stage as well.

You don’t even have to hold the microphone.

After talking like that for a while, he stopped.

I guess the comment was too long.

He got up from his seat and approached the grand piano that was already set up on the stage.

The instrument I am most familiar with is the guitar.

Even when I’m working as an instrumentalist rather than a vocalist, I usually play the guitar, and I get most of my composing inspiration from playing the guitar.

But the instrument he plays best isn’t the guitar.

It’s a piano.

Because I was a pianist when I challenged myself with classical music.

Although I could not become the best in the classical music world, I did manage to tie for fourth place in the Chopin Competition.

No matter what anyone says, the charm of the piano lies in its rich melody.

I think that when you get to the point where you can put emotion into the melody, you can even speak through the piano.

And I got to that point.

“As you can see, I am alone, so the Time Traveler has to do the rest.”

As soon as I finished speaking, sporadic shouts of ‘Titi!’ were heard.

“… … Titi has to do it.”

I’m getting used to it, but I still feel a little awkward.

But people laugh at my embarrassment.

To blow away the embarrassment, I quickly started playing.

As soon as the easy intro is heard, the fans cheer.

Because it was.

Bedroom pop is characterized by simple, dreamy melodies, but I can also play it like this.

♬♪♩♪♪♩♪

A gorgeous piano performance enriches the intro of the resume.

The main melody that people are familiar with was left intact, but the surroundings were filled with splendor.

The person who taught me classical piano was the Hungarian maestro Lily Fischer.

I started to challenge myself in classical music when I was twenty years old, and usually at that age, you can’t become a disciple of the great masters.

No matter how old you are, you have to start before you turn fifteen.

But she appreciated my talent and took me on as her disciple.

But in the end, I declared that I could never become a top pianist.

There was one reason.

“You get too emotional when you play.”

“You have a natural talent for conveying it, but you force your feelings on others.”

At first he denied what Lily Fisher said, but in the final episode where he challenges the classic, he eventually admits it.

That’s right.

I want people to listen to my music and feel the same way I do.

However, classics should be open to wide interpretation and allow for a variety of emotions.

So, the clothes didn’t fit me.

But pop music is a little different.

Because there are lyrics.

I hope people who listen to my resume feel warm and happy.

I can’t imagine listening to this song with any other emotion.

And luckily, the fans feel the same way as I do.

The performance, which had been expressing splendid variations, returned to its original point.

As we look down the stage, Titi opens her mouth in unison.

Woo- Hello

All night, good

Did you have a dream?

Warm feeling

I was surprised that he sang better than I expected.

The beat is also accurate.

Woo- Hello

A little, quickly

Start your day

A refreshing morning

This time I sang along too.

Originally I wasn’t going to sing unless it was my part, but I got excited.

So we shouted out our resumes loudly.

What was funny was that when I sang the chorus, the fans didn’t sing along.

Just leave my part alone.

As if he wanted to appreciate my voice.

No, but don’t you want to follow the chorus?

That’s a lot of patience.

We – here

With earnestness

What you want-

But at the end of the chorus I gave it another variation.

Cheers erupt again, as if they never tire.

This time it’s summer cream.

* * *

Small theater performance?

Fan meeting? Fan signing event?

Or recreation?

Events that I don’t know what to call continued without stopping.

There was no host for the first 15 minutes or so while they played 3 songs, but then a host came in.

It was an MC who seemed like someone I had seen on TV, but also not.

Although he was a relatively unknown MC, he skillfully led the meeting between Han Si-on and Titi.

Because we hired capable people in the first place.

“Number 33! Number 33, come up on stage! Think of a wish as you go up!”

It was definitely not a normal fan signing event.

However, whenever the MC was doing something, Han Si-on would go down to the stage, sign autographs in order, and talk.

He also wore the gift he received in front of people.

In fact, Han Si-on was busy moving around because he had 350 fans, but the other members of 3 Months 100 Days were not.

Lee Ion had about 180 members, and the rest of the members had about 100 members.

There was plenty of time, and each person spent time with their fans in their own way, in their own hall.

On Sae-mi, who has little talent, relied a lot on the MC, while Choi Jae-seong, who has a lot of talent, planned a lot of things on his own.

The important thing was that it was fun anyway.

Besides, the members of Sedalbaekil were quite honest.

Even when fans asked him tricky questions, he answered them smoothly.

“The most handsome guy in the team? Am I the one?”

Although Lee Ion’s fans burst into laughter at Lee Ion’s words, Lee Ion’s answer was extremely objective.

In the fan signing event that took place like that, the first one to leave was Choi Jae-sung, who had few participants.

Although the way it was conducted and the content in between were different, the overall structure of the fan signing events was similar.

Naturally, the one with fewer people will finish faster.

Choi Jae-sung’s fans thought the event was over, but they had to board a bus standing in front of the MICE center under the guidance of Choi Jae-sung and his fan manager.

Of course, you can go home if you want, but because of schedules, only two people were able to go home.

Those two also left, almost in tears.

By the time Choi Jae-sung’s fans who had boarded the bus arrived at a nearby gym, the Onsemiro Hall was also finished.

The fans moved into the gym sequentially, and the last one was Han Si-on.

Han Si-on and his fans, who managed to get autographs for all 350 people, were the last to arrive at the gym.

The gymnasium, not far from the MICE center, was rented by Sedalbaekil and was fully equipped with high-end sound equipment.

Because, for the performance.

Although Han Si-on is my favorite, there are fans who want to see Gu Tae-hwan or On Sae-mi.

Or, if you insist on picking just one, there are also all-fans.

In particular, the first generation of TT had a high level of favorability toward the members overall because they were people who had been together since the beginning of Sedal Baekil and Choi Maxho’s strong period.

Because of the length of the song, there were some personal fans of Lee Ion who disliked Han Si-on, but it was not a big problem.

“hello!”

So, when the complete Sedalbaekil appeared, a huge cheer erupted.

The performance began in front of about 850 people.

* * *

Reviews of the Sedalbaekil fan signing event began to spread on SNS and the internet.

Originally, reviews like this would circulate in idol communities, but Sedalbaekil was a group that enjoyed a very high level of popularity and interest from the general public.

-No, crazy Sedalbaekhaengil, don’t you have any plans to make money?

-I’m sick of this sound now.

-Aren’t you selling goods like that?

-You said you shared it?

-Why worry about celebrities? They’ll make money on their own. Haha. Their album sold over 1 million copies and was even on Billboard.

-Well, that’s true.

-Three months and one day is smart. It’s like an investment in the future. Now, the fans’ loyalty is different.

-Honestly, it seems like it’s fortunate that there’s no company for three months and one hundred days.

-Are you ignoring SBI Entertainment?

-What is that?

-It’s the company name for Sedalbaekilㅋㅋㅋ

-Kkkkkkkkkkk something is fishy

The general public, who are somewhat detached from the sensibilities of the idol industry, interpreted the situation from a capitalist perspective.

But the idol community was a little different.

They focused on the intention of three months and one hundred days.

There are many disappointing aspects, as it is not a familiar fan signing event format and there were too many participants.

But isn’t the intention still clear?

To repay the fans’ support.

-I’m a little jealous of this.

-Looking at the Choi Jae-seong fan signing review, it wasn’t a joke. It was almost like a small gathering because there were only about 80 people.

-It seems like Han Si-on was busy?

-You said there were over 300 people. But it still looked meaningful.

As such stories spread, someone even estimated the cost of attending a fan signing event and posted it on the Internet.

People said that Sedalbaekil didn’t really seem to have any intention of making money, but…

“Now, shall we go and make some money?”

At this point, that was wrong.

This is because the self-made filming led by PD Kang Seok-woo has begun in earnest.
