If You Raise Three Idols Well, They Will Confess Their Love - Chapter 161



161 – The Emergence of a Genius Vocalist

Episode 161

All of Two Bear’s executives and staff, except Sun Taeyang and Yoo Ga-eul, who were recording ‘Music Road’ overseas, were seated and receiving champagne and orange juice as politely as possible from Cheon A-ram. After the advertisement, the broadcast began. .

“Let’s begin!”

Cheon A-ram, who was pleased, put down the champagne he had been pouring for Seo Soo-yeon and sat down.

The broadcast began by showing the streets of all over the world and many unknown singers singing among them, and began with a narration by a professional voice actor.

“There are hundreds of languages in the world. The difference in language can create walls and misunderstandings. A consensus that lies on the other side. The foundation that makes it possible is language. Therefore, differences in language are also differences in culture. We have a hard time understanding each other because of this language difference. But even so, there is a language that everyone understands.”

And the camera showed people of various races cheering and clapping while listening to the unknown singers.

“It is music.”

The dark screen fades in and the audience changes from being an audience member on a street stage of an unknown singer to being an audience member of a huge festival stage.

“We can tell. In different cultures and in different languages. “With the power of that music, sadness, affection, peace, and love are created.”

And looking at the audience like that, the singer’s mouth filled with joy shines and the title of ‘Music Road’ comes to mind.

“Music road, love and song. “Starting now.”

The music road began in earnest with all Two Bear employees concentrating, even forgetting about the popcorn and pretzels prepared by Cheon A-ram next to them.

While an awkward silence continued in the studio where the singers were gathered, the announcer MC who appeared skillfully proceeded with the situation and began to explain the rules of this competition.

“You should forget all the fame you have built so far and busk as an unknown singer.”

The content was that the theme of the first survival was to receive a love rating of 70% or more through buttons distributed to random audiences in an overseas plaza.

With the threat that if the audience who watched the busking on the street did not give more than 70% Love, they would be eliminated.

R&B singer Lena Shin asked with a slightly arrogant attitude.

“Why do I have to go abroad? “Isn’t it okay to do it in Korea?”

“It’s purely because I want you to prove the power of music. Everyone here is a top-level singer. If those people perform on stage in Korea, they can receive more than 70% of love just by the reputation and time image they have accumulated.”

“Then why not just cover your face?”

The MC spoke with a serious expression.

“That’s because our program believes that a singer is not a machine that only plays the notes that come out.”

“…”

“Facial expressions, hand gestures, performance, sweat, immersion, sadness, joy, anger, madness, everything you see, hear, and smell is the music that makes you. We decided that covering the face and body shape was not complete. So it’s overseas. There, a singer from the East who performs on the street would not feel fame. Of course, there will be some individual differences, but I thought that the difference would not matter.”

Then rocker Shin Ju-rim asked.

“What about the judges?”

“The first round is only for the audience.”

The MC said as he walked out to the center stage.

“From the second round, when the competition begins in earnest, the judges will be hidden among the audience and evaluated together, but the score ratio will not be high. The comments are nothing more or less than that to help viewers understand. The key is the audience. “Please don’t forget that.”

The scene in the studio quickly fades out, and before we know it, it begins to show a male singer walking out of a famous square in Europe, holding only an electric guitar.

It was Shin Ju-rim, the rocker who spoke earlier.

“Honestly, even if the language is different. Rock is something that has been passed down. And I am confident. Exciting the audience is what I have been doing for over ten years. “I can make people go crazy by singing the nursery rhyme Three Bears.”

When the PD asked Shin Ju-rim, who seemed so confident, a question, he said angrily as he connected his guitar to the pre-installed amplifier.

“Expected Love decision demand? Hmm… 100% would be difficult, maybe 95%? “If you don’t get at least over 90%, your pride will be very hurt.”

And with the gathered audience’s attention gathered, he began singing with a strong guitar note.

Eventually, after the busking was over and the audience’s evaluations were calculated, the MC read the results.

“Love verdict is 67%! Unfortunately, Shin Ju-rim was eliminated.”

“… Fuck you.”

It was a quick elimination that no one expected.

Winter asked in confusion.

“Isn’t rocker Shin Ju-rim a very famous person? But are you going to drop it right away like this? I thought you did a good job…”

Vocal trainer Song Yo-han, who was listening next to me, answered.

“I don’t think Shin Ju-rim rocker’s skills are lacking. If it weren’t for achieved that, you wouldn’t have this level of standing in the music industry. However, I think the reason the result came out like this is because the psychology of evaluation and the word for judgment is the use of the word love.”

“Word?”

“Like, good, cool, I don’t know this much, but I don’t feel like using the word love is that easy. The question, ‘I did a good job, but was it love?’ Can be viewed negatively. It seems that such a psychological barrier caused this result.”

“Wow, isn’t it too difficult to get over 70% in the meantime?”

Even while the two were having that conversation, the singers went on stage one after another, recording a close Love score of 76% and 71%, respectively, and barely made it past the first round. And the singer who came out next may have been in trouble due to his physical condition her, but he made a noticeable mistake, such as leaving the note, and had to face a miserable score of 45%.

“Are you okay, Ga Eul?”

“…”

While Two Bear’s employees looked on nervously, the converted screen began to show a familiar acoustic guitar.

“Hello. “This is Yoo Ga-eul, a member of a girl group called Girls Revolution.”

It was fall.

“Wow, it’s Autumn!”

The PD asked her if she felt any pressure while tuning her guitar.

“Honestly, it’s burdensome. The people here are all professional singers or professionals who used to be idols but have successfully established themselves as solo artists. “Maybe they are the people I dream of reaching when I succeed in my future growth.”

After finishing tuning, Ga Eul got up from her seat and started walking towards the stage in the square.

“Even now, as I leave the stage, I can’t believe I’m competing with these people. That’s because it’s true that I’m not good enough to stand side by side. Besides, I’m the only active idol, right? I think the reason they called me was probably because the PD viewed my previous busking videos positively.”

PD stopped her for a moment and asked her last question. The question of what is the goal of this broadcast.

Ga Eul looked somewhere where people were standing when she asked that question, and she smiled slightly and said.

From noble mtl dot come

“Still, we win.”

And she finished her sentence by walking away without hesitation.

“I don’t want to be ashamed of the love and trust I have received.”

The song she chose was Albatross, which was arranged entirely with acoustic guitar.

When a familiar melody, which had recently become famous on social media, was heard, the attention of people on the street began to gather.

In the end, it was a light reaction like ‘Interesting, you know this song?’But that reaction changed right after she put her first line into her mouth.

〈Pond, river, sea, and I’m looking at you〉

The sounds in the square began to stop.

Everything except the sound of a small acoustic guitar and the voice of autumn.

An old man sitting at a table in a cafe reading a paper newspaper, a police officer arguing with a driver over a parking violation, a pickpocket looking for a target who appears to have a lot of money to pickpocket, and a traveler taking pictures of the scenery of the plaza, everyone is making noise. Stopped giving out.

And all eyes were drawn to the stage where Ga Eul was standing.

〈I’ll remember you, kid who’ll fly the furthest.〉

〈Until the wind blows that will make you fly one day.〉

She was a witch.

This strange atmosphere is because it was believed that the magical power that attracts people was definitely magic.

〈The scene where you cross the clouds and cut through the sky.〉

After the song ended, it was the MC’s voice that erased the silence in the quiet square.

“… Love verdict is 87%! Mr. Yoo Ga-eul passed the first round.”

In this way, a genius named Yoo Ga-eul began to reveal a side of himself that had been hidden in the form of a group.
