Damn Idol - Chapter 184

Fucking Idol Episode 184

* * *

Many issues arose while episodes 2 and 3 of Self Made Season 2 were airing.

The most common issue among them was the program’s success.

‘It’s kind of funny that you think this is okay.’

The reason why PD Kang Seok-woo and M Show thought this way was simple.

This is because the buzz for 3 months and 100 days is greater than that of self-made.

Usually, when guests on entertainment programs create an issue, that issue is distributed through the program.

Even The Masked Singer by Onsemiro was like that.

On Sae-mi dominated the show for four weeks and became only the second contestant in the show’s history to graduate with honors.

The fandom for Sedalbaekil knew about it, but the general public didn’t know much about it.

To be exact, it was the moment when On Sae-mi’s singing ability, which had been overshadowed by Han Si-on, was revealed to the world.

These issues are similar to the distribution of content called Onsemiro through a platform called Masked Singer.

Even now, whenever we talk about On Sae Mi’s skills, we can’t help but mention the Masked Singer.

But 3 months and 100 days and self-made are a bit different.

Originally, Mshow’s plan was to distribute the content called Sedalbaekil through the platform called Self-Made…

‘If you look at the way it’s going, it’s the opposite.’

It became the complete opposite.

It feels like a huge platform called Sedalbaekil is distributing self-made content.

If we look at the facts alone, this is absurd.

The fact that Sedalbaekil became an unknown singer, created OSTs for webtoons, created commercial music for the game MOL, and worked as a masked robber was all thanks to Self-Made.

This is something I wouldn’t have done if there was no self-made.

Is that all?

It was all within Self Made that I created an Apple commercial (still can’t believe it), met Chris Edwards in the US, directed a band called BOTY, and was offered an English album by HR Corporation.

So, to be honest, all of this was accomplished in just three months and one day by a platform called Self Made.

But no one in the public thought that way.

-Self-made is good at recruiting, so how much honey can you suck out? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-They also get paid to use all that data screen stuff. If Sedalbaekil becomes a big hit in the US, M Show will get a sweet pension, right?

-What kind of pension is that? The three-month and one-hundred-day pads are always overdone.

-No nonsense. Do you know how much it would cost to use Michael Jackson interview footage as a reference screen?

-Are you comparing 3 months and 100 days to Michael Jackson?

-You’re so stupid. If that’s what it sounds like, you need to relearn the language.

-Can’t you hear the comments? Can you see them?

-Ugh lol

Everyone thinks that self-made has benefited from the three-month and one-hundred-day system.

From the perspective of a broadcast producer, this is the first time that the leadership of the platform and content has changed so much.

But it’s not that I don’t understand.

What three months and one hundred days have accomplished is an incredible big shot.

This was achieved without any help from the self-made production team.

Now that I confess, the production crew including PD Kang Seok-woo of Self-Made thought that ‘Unknown Singer’s Challenge’ would end as a minor episode.

I don’t doubt Sedalbaekil’s ability, but three months is too short to achieve anything.

How much great things can you accomplish in three months?

So, the production team had prepared their own pocket money missions, and there was also behind-the-scenes work to help unknown singers with their activities.

The reason I said it was after-work is because they prepared so that even for three months and a hundred days, they wouldn’t know that the broadcasting station was there for what they had accomplished.

But all that wasn’t necessary.

Because 3 Months and 100 Days easily reached things that M Show could not reach even if it pushed forward with all its might, and as a result, the nature of the show itself changed.

Even more so after the director and Han Si-on had several conversations.

And so, episode 4 of season 2 of Self Made was aired.

Episode 4 was an episode that clearly showed that the nature of the show had changed.

A contract with Apple, street performances, training with the band BOTY, three months and a hundred days of recording, and a meeting with the CEO of HR Corporation.

Sedalbaekil opened his mouth in front of viewers who were curious about what kind of great story would come out behind all of this.

[I want to prepare a second album.]

[2nd album? 2nd full-length album?]

[yes.]

[Why all of a sudden?]

[The CEO of HR Corporation and everyone else. It seems like everyone is only looking at our past music. We’re in our prime right now. Right?]

In fact, this is a scene that was directed for broadcasting.

He said that the conversation about wanting to prepare a second album with Sedalbaekil took place on the same day he directed BOTY.

At that time, the members of Sedalbaekil were given a vacation without cameras (except for Han Si-on, who was asked to direct by Chris Edwards), and it was said that they had a conversation in a hotel room.

And the next day, Han Si-on relayed that he had told this story to PD Kang Seok-woo.

Here, the director evaluated the possibility of three months and one hundred days more highly and made a suggestion.

M Show will be the billboard for Sedalbaekil’s second regular album.

So, all the scenes that are coming out now have been directed.

But it wasn’t awkward.

‘They say Han Si-on is good at acting too.’

Han Si-on, who has incomprehensibly many talents, is also good at acting.

I can’t say that they are all like actors, but I don’t feel any awkwardness.

If we film a scene where Han Si-on takes the initiative to open his mouth and the members of Se-dal-baek-il react in a way that is close to a documentary… … .

[Preparation of 3 months 100 days regular 2nd album, announced through self-made.]

[2018, the year of the 3rd month and 100th day? Announcement of the release of the English and American versions of the first regular album and the release of the second album.]

Journalists spread the news.

-Oh my goshㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ When on earth do our kids get a break?

-It’s good, but… It’s really good, but…

-Wow but if the Billboard version of the first album is released and the second album bombs even K-pop ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ

-Won’t future generations call it Se-dal-baek-il instead of 2018?

-Then what about 2019?

-Can’t you think about it when you get there? Are you Tiya?

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋLook at the legacy Tae-hwan left behindㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-But these days, there’s been a huge MBTI craze among fans.

-That’s right. It’s not necessarily Titi’s story.

-Our kids are leading the trend. Not only in music, lol

The fandom reacts.

After that, the public also responded.

-Isn’t 3 months and 100 days cool? You’ve done enough to succeed, but you keep trying. If I were you, I’d probably want to spend some money and have fun.

-There aren’t even any companies that are nagging you to give them sales;

-ㅇㅇㅇ That’s true too, but if it were me, I’d be burdened because the first album was so successful. So I’m trying my hand at the second album right away.

-It’s really cool how you ignore the sophomore jinx.

-But if you fail like this, you’ll be an idiot. Why are you making such a fuss when the album hasn’t even come out yet?

-What are you talking about? Are you a Hipzion newbie?

-Hipzion never fails. If Hipzion fails, it means the world has not yet accepted his music.

-How can Hip-Sion fail? Should we do some Apple commercial music? He’s a genius who signs an advertising contract right away.

-Where is the Korean singer who the CEO of HR Corporation comes to ask to release an album?

-Ah, please, I hope you do band music for the second album. Han Si-on should teach the members some instruments.

-I saw Choi Jae-seong play the piano well when I saw the year-end stage last time.

-Then let’s have Han Si-on on guitar, Choi Jae-seong on keyboard, On Sae-mi on bass, and Koo Tae-hwan on drums.

-What about Ion?

-Frontman.

-Okay. One face is not certain.

-What are you guys doing here, evaluating me?

-What is Ion lacking that he is the frontman?

-What are you talking about? If you’re the frontman, you’re the main vocalist.

-Did you mean that in a good way? No;

There was some friction due to the gap between the three months and one hundred days that Titi saw and the three months and one hundred days that the public saw, but it was something that always happened.

In episode 4, the members of Sedalbaekil started preparing their album.

Thinking back, it’s ridiculous, but they really started making the album.

I didn’t just work hard enough to show it on TV and spend the rest of my time on vacation.

While saying that I had already had enough fun (I don’t know when I had the last time), I devoted myself to working on the album.

Moreover, PD Kang Seok-woo knew the answer to the quiz that Sedalbaekil had given.

No, I only knew the concept.

After Mshow and Sedalbaekil decided to collaborate, I heard the meaning of the slogan through Hanshion… … .

‘Because I don’t understand.’

I didn’t understand.

I knew I wanted to make a second album in some way, but I didn’t know if it would actually work out.

But anyway, I leave the music to Han Si-on, the recording to Se Dal Baek-il, and M Show is a billboard.

They started to show that they were faithfully working on their second album for three months.

-So then it really was two albums?

-ㅇㅇㅇㅇ In 2+2+1, the first 2 seemed to refer to 2 albums. The English version of TFD and the 2nd regular album.

-So the remaining 2 are singles and 1 is a mini album?

-Isn’t that the most likely possibility?

-But Koo Tae-hwan’s singing is really good; isn’t he one of the top K-pop singers, even just in the introduction?

-That’s why;

-I never thought that Han Si-on’s help to Gu Tae-hwan in Coming Up Next would come back as such a big snowball.

-Coming up next, I thought of this. What are Ryan and them doing? Take scene.

-You’re going around doing eventsㅋㅋㅋ I saw you at a festival last week. But you were surprisingly good at live performances? You sang the lead song really well.

-But their stage and songs were all goodㅋㅋㅋ It’s because Sedalbaekil kept sucking up all the buzz with simultaneous releasesㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Oh rightㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ When the take scene teaser came out, the color show teaser came outㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-They’re crazyㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ When the official music video came out, they put up the official color showㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Anyway, Hip-Hop Shop, lol. I’m telling you, revenge is certain.

The songs included in the second album were not shown in detail.

It was shown just enough to make the viewers curious, just enough to make them excited.

But despite that, the effect was clear.

This was because PD Kang Seok-woo accepted the part where Han Si-on said, “Let’s show this, this, and this.”

I had no pride as the main director.

Anyway, Kang Seok-woo and Han Si-on have seen everything there is to see, and they know what kind of personalities each other has.

Moreover, he had no doubts about Han Si-on’s musical talent.

If Han Si-on says it’s edible, then it’s edible.

-Wow, Gu Tae-hwan and Lee Ion fit well together.

-There’s a reason why the masked robber was cast on GYㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I successfully got a GY ticket.

-I’m so jealous. When was that?

-It’s next Saturday.

As expected, people responded and became curious.

But at the same time, people were clearly aware of the limitations of entertainment programs.

I’ll probably just show you this much.

To hear more about this song, the sound source must be released or the album must be released.

Because that’s the rule.

but…….

[Shall we do this properly?]

Sedalbaekil was a group that always broke the rules.

Han Si-on sat down in front of the synthesizer and pressed the keys.

Koo Tae-hwan and Lee Ion started singing.

It’s not like two people were in charge of the introduction or the intro.

It was a song sung by just two people.

Because the first 2 of 2 + 2 + 1 meant Koo Tae-hwan and Lee Ion.
