Damn Idol Episode 37
The most comments were that it was M Show Viral, and then there were many comments asking why the score was so generous.
Still, people seemed to be a little interested.
He said it would be worth watching if the two teams that match the author’s opinion are really there.
“But what is lamb?”
“You brat.”
“Goo Tae-hwan?”
Han Si-on looked at Gu Tae-hwan, making a sobbing sound, and then tilted his head.
Gu Tae-hwan was curious about the meaning of that nod, but he didn’t ask.
I’m afraid that some unexpected answer will come.
In fact, I didn’t know about the members of Sedalbaekil, but the gangsters that Hansion had been meeting for over a hundred years were American style.
People who drink drugs and shoot guns and easily get involved in crime.
So I didn’t really understand.
Koo Tae-hwan, unaware of such facts, opened his mouth.
“It’s a bit strange. “Someone sees us, evaluates us, and posts it like this.”
“This person wrote everything with kind words, but someday there will be bad comments.”
“Yes, but honestly, I don’t really feel it. “I heard that malicious comments make people suffer so much.”
“Jaeseong also mentioned it earlier, but is Shion really good at dealing with people? “I felt a little awkward and embarrassed.”
Si-ion Han responded to Lee Ion’s words indifferently.
“Fans are grateful people who buy our albums.”
“album?”
“yes. Some guy said that. Buying an album means owning someone’s moment with a value that can be exchanged for anything in the world.”
“That sounds nice, but why do you call me a bastard?”
“Just like that.”
After saying that, Han Si-on shrugged his shoulders and stood up.
“Can you stop getting up? “I have plans for dinner.”
“okay. “Let’s all get up.”
As he cleaned up his place, Koo Tae-hwan felt puzzled.
Han Si-on, who seemed good just a few minutes ago, seemed to be in a down mood again.
* * *
The time I spent with Sedalbaekil was more comfortable than I expected.
In the middle, Onsaemiro showed strangely negative emotions, but it was not directed at me.
It didn’t seem like they were really worried that I would leave, but they didn’t seem to want me to either.
I’m not sure what I’m feeling.
No matter how long you have lived in a country, it is impossible to penetrate the inside of a person.
Anyway, I was so immersed in such a comfortable atmosphere that the words went farther than I expected.
What I said to Ion was what the devil said to me.
I’ve met the devil a total of three times so far.
The first meeting is when signing a contract.
The time when time stopped at the scene of a car accident, my parents’ deaths were postponed, and I was thrown into a closed timeline.
The only explanation I received from the devil that day was that 200 million copies had to be sold, and that if the goal was achieved, they would be sent to the desired timeline.
I found out all the other information by racking my brain.
Only physical albums are counted, if you buy an album with your own money (even if you ask someone else to do it), it will not be counted, and even produced albums are counted based on contribution.
Is that it?
I personally found out the damn regression rule that causes regression the moment you give up.
It’s extremely unfriendly.
The second meeting was when my mentality was completely gone.
My memories of this time are really mixed up and hard to organize, but I think it was probably when I was trying my hand at EDM.
At that time, I was completely mentally unwell and kept repeating unconscious regression.
Even when meeting lawyer Choi Ji-woon, it was a crossroads when I opened my eyes, and when I passed through the immigration gate, when I opened my eyes, it was a crossroads.
Even in severe cases, I was transported from my parents’ accident car to an ambulance, but when I closed my eyes and opened them, I was back in the car.
I was caught up in the negative thought that it wouldn’t work out anyway.
Then, the devil appeared.
The devil spoke, forcibly activating my reason and intellect, just like when we first met.
No, it conveyed meaning.
Neither a thousand years nor 10,000 years have passed, so why does this problem occur?
They say my chances of success continue to increase as I make repeated regressions.
I think I was a little embarrassed at that time.
I had assumed that the devil had made a similar deal over and over again to the one I had experienced.
I also thought that they were trying to corrupt and wear down my soul and swallow me whole.
So I never thought he would ask for the reason so calmly.
But soon I got angry and got angry.
So instead of answering the questions, I poured out things I had been curious about.
Why do you need to sell an album?
If you are not making fun of me, mocking me, and despising me, please tell me the reason.
The answer was truly unexpected.
[In the age of barbarism, there is sacrifice, in the age of barbarism, there is slaughter, and in the age of conquest, there is war.]
[It enriched the value of death.]
[After the advent of the era of civilization, the value of death was downgraded, and the value of goods was raised.]
[The world is no longer a spinning wheel rolled by humans facing death.]
[It is a windmill shaken by those who clamor for the height of wealth.]
[Yes, money.]
[If you try to own someone’s moment as a commodity that can be exchanged for anything in the world, that is offering, worship, and conquest.]
[I just stand at the crossroads of values and indulge the desires bound by them.]
[You were only chosen as an agent.]
I had absolutely nothing to say.
There was no need to ask why it was an album.
According to that explanation, formal art such as painting or performance art such as dance would not be appropriate.
Surprisingly, as soon as I rationally understood the devil’s intentions, I felt my unstable emotional state stabilize.
Perhaps I was obsessed with the fear that all my efforts might be ridiculed by the devil.
I kept asking questions to the devil after that.
I was scared, but I felt like I would never get an opportunity like this again, and surprisingly, I got the feeling that the devil wanted me to succeed.
When asked why only physical albums are counted, he said that what is not counted is not a true desire to own it or a desire bound by value.
I asked if they had also signed contracts with musicians other than me, like Beethoven and Mozart.
Then the answer came that it was an age of barbarism and conquest.
The last question I asked was what was my percentage chance of success at that time.
and.
[100%]
I answered 100% if it can withstand the test of time.
It was my second encounter with the devil.
The third and final meeting was… … .
I don’t want to think about it.
It’s something I never want to experience again.
“shit.”
I can’t believe I’m reminiscing about something like this.
That was not the answer to Lee Ion’s question.
It was an attitude that was not like my usual attitude.
Have you become too relaxed after coming to Korea for the first time in a long time?
While I was thinking that, I got a call on my cell phone.
-Mr. Han Si-on? Can you come to the broadcasting station now?
It was PD Kang Seok-woo.
It looks like he heard the story between me and Fade.
* * *
Kang Seok-woo was pleased to hear PD Kim Dal-in’s story speaking with a serious expression.
“Han Zion said he was confident that Chris Edwards would appear?”
“yes? yes.”
“hmm. How did you know that negotiations were in trouble because of the appearance fee? “Are you really just guessing?”
“Well, I don’t know?”
“It’s fascinating. “Have you checked to see if the arranged version mentioned by HR is ready?”
“… … “I haven’t asked yet.”
“Why don’t you ask that?”
“Seniors. Isn’t that what’s important now? A Hansion contestant said he would leave if Fade didn’t apologize… … .”
“Oh, that?”
Kang Seok-woo chuckled.
“Does that mean you’re really going to leave? “He’s not stupid.”
“What is the intention of the Hansion participants?”
“I don’t know either, right? But I think I know which scale is heavier.”
“yes?”
“Okay, go out. “I’m going to talk about it myself.”
As PD Kim Dal-in muttered and left, Kang Seok-woo picked up the phone.
About 40 minutes later, Han Si-on visited the broadcasting station.
“hello.”
“Oh, sit down. “Can I get you some coffee?”
“I think water will do.”
After receiving the bottle of water, Si-On Han bowed his head and apologized to PD Kang Seok-woo.
“First of all, I apologize for causing trouble.”
“are you okay. “I heard the context, and Mr. Shion did not cause the conflict in the first place.”
Kang Seok-woo was thinking that Han Si-on may have scratched the fade on purpose.
Han Si-on probably also knew what he was thinking.
However, the two did not show any signs of it and exchanged comfort and well-wishes.
And then we got to the point.
“I’ll ask Fade to apologize tomorrow. “How do you tell me to go home?”
“no. “I think I can just take a video and send it to you.”
“Okay then, I’m just curious, why did you react like that? “I don’t think I just responded because I was angry.”
“Producer, can I be a little honest here?”
“It’s good. “Tell me.”
What Han Si-on revealed afterwards was exactly what PD Kang Seok-woo had expected.
Han Si-on knew that he was much more important than Fade in Coming Up Next.
He believed that and accepted it coolly.
However, what was a bit surprising was the evaluation that Han Sion gave to Fade.
‘You knew it wouldn’t be on the air anyway so you tried to kill Sedal101’s spirit? ‘Are you a friend who knows how to use that kind of trick?’
If he had been there at the scene where he could see non-verbal elements, Kang Seok-woo would have noticed as well, but it’s a bit confusing to hear just the words.
It wasn’t important.
It didn’t matter if it was all Han Si-on’s excuses and just an act of discipline.
“Now, then, I will guarantee Fade’s apology, and it has been exchanged that Mr. Shion will also guarantee Chris Edward’s appearance, right?”
“If Edward doesn’t appear, will there be more weight toward the fade?”
“It’s not easy to overcome, is it? is it so. I heard you even talked about the appearance fee to the late producer? “What do you want?”
“hmm… … .”
Si-ion Han took a quick look and opened his mouth.
“It’s a strong relationship.”
“we? It’s already sticky. “To be honest, I never thought I’d be able to have this conversation with a 20-year-old contestant.”
“I’m talking about a bond that goes beyond just the program director and program participants.”
“ah… … . “You want to take on a debt.”
“That’s not necessarily true.”
“Why not?”
PD Kang Seok-woo smiled kindly and opened his mouth.
“But Mr. Shion, you know that, right? “The debt of the heart only affects those who are at a level that is uncomfortable to ignore.”
It was a warning that he would have to maintain his position in the world of show business to collect his debt.
Han Si-on returns to normal life after the program ends?
Then there was no reason for Producer Kang Seok-woo to provide even the slightest help.
Kang Seok-woo is not a good person.
Good business partner.
Han Si-on also knew that.
“of course.”
“great. “When can you give me the Flowers Bloom arrangement version that HR requested?”
“I will send it to you before work time tomorrow at the latest.”
“okay. Please ask me directly.”
“I also have a question. When I watched Ryan Enter YouTube, I didn’t remember seeing a fade.”
“Oh, that? This is a bit complicated, but originally there were 7 people in the take scene, right? But after some deliberation, it was decided that there would be 5 people.”
“Were two eliminated?”
“Yes. So originally, a friend named Action was confirmed as the fifth member.”
“yes.”
“But Action is when a friend leaves due to family circumstances and Fade returns.”
“Oh, that’s what it was.”
Shion Han shook his head.
“yes. Well, CEO Choi Dae-ho said that Fade is a friend who worked hard until the very end, so he won’t have any regrets regarding his skills.”
“yes. “Even though there was some conflict, objectively he faded well.”
“is it so. Even if we don’t get along well, try to be objective in front of the camera.”
After that, Kang Seok-woo had a light chat with Han Si-on and then said goodbye.
In the room where Han Shi-on left, Kang Seok-woo scratched his chin.
“Huh, really.”
No matter how you look at him, he doesn’t look like he’s twenty years old.
What we give and receive is accurate, and our value judgments are cool-headed.
But I actually liked it that much more.
Even if Han Si-on had the same skills as now, if Han Si-on was a sentimental and unstable person, Kang Seok-woo wouldn’t have bet.
In this way, Coming Up Next deviated a little from the original intention, but it was sailing along.
