Rockstar Again - Chapter 148
Only Noblemtl
Episode 148. Our night is more beautiful than your day (1)
The music market in Korea changes every day.
That doesn’t mean that the song that was number one today suddenly fell to number 200.
Overall, the cycle has become faster.
When I was young, they used to give out a Golden Cup if you won first place for 5 weeks in a row on music shows. The reason why the Golden Cup was created was really funny.
The reason why the broadcasting station held an honorable retirement was because the song that was doing well stayed at the top spot for two or three months.
If they didn’t give up the number one song, there wouldn’t be any room for other songs.
The winner takes all, and the winner lasts a long time.
But these days, things are different.
The average activity cycle of K-pop idols, who are currently leading the Korean music industry, is about 2 to 3 weeks.
How many music shows have you been on?
Where is the song coming from?
Are these guys active?
If this continues, the activity will end before you know it.
Then they jump right into money-making activities.
Selling Pocahontas diligently and holding fan signing events.
After confirming the fan base, we will hold a concert.
After securing funds by holding a few domestic concerts, we will proceed with an overseas tour focusing on Southeast Asia.
When you think about it, our Blue Porcelain’s actions certainly had a bit of an unusual edge.
Jaemin Group affiliate, TVK broadcasting station waiting room.
“We got second place.”
Youngpil is staring intently at his cell phone.
“Everything has gotten faster. How the world turns… … .”
When I click my tongue like my grandfather, my brothers burst out laughing.
They say they are hyungs, but Taeju hyung is not in the waiting room.
– Mr. Chairman. I came to say hello since this is your last activity stage. Hehe… … .
A white-haired, Kentucky Fried Chicken grandpa knocked on the waiting room door and bowed?
So I told Tae-joo not to come in and just tell him to leave.
We do get some special treatment, and we do have an unusually large waiting room for a rookie.
When I saw the old men lined up behind Grandpa Kentucky, I couldn’t breathe.
Those gentlemen won’t all come into our waiting room.
―Wow… … Even I sometimes forget, but at times like this, I check Taeju hyung’s force… … .
When Tae-ju hyung dragged the adults one by one to somewhere with my congratulatory message, this is what Suchan hyung said.
-Who is that old man?
―You’re TVK’s CEO Yang Hong-soo. Don’t you know? I live and work so long that not only do PDs come to say hello, but the CEO also manages a group that bows to greet people… … .
hmm.
I don’t know, what.
I’ll be there before the broadcast starts.
Anyway.
We had been at number one for over two months, but today we fell to number two on the music charts.
While all ten songs on the album still rank among the top charts, the most popular song by far is Astronaut.
I expected it.
Because that was the trendiest.
It’s a song that was created with some level of intention from the beginning.
Wheeing―.
I checked my phone, which was on vibrate, because it was shaking.
-Slave #1: Dong-ha. Your group will be finishing up its activities this week, right? Are you sure?
It’s Jo In-chang.
“Anyway… … . A producer who has lost his senses is like a bitter persimmon.”
I chuckled to myself.
The reason Jo In-chang sent such a nervous text is simple.
[Shining Girls! Comeback! Double Title, All Moving Production!]
[Will there be a showdown between the producer and the idol?]
The media is making such a fuss, but when I quietly watch the entertainment industry, I see that all of this is done by the agency.
It seems like Inchang is slowly regaining his senses, but he still hesitates whether restoring his bank account is his top priority.
Because I had promised to Im Jin, I contributed two songs to this album as well.
It’s a mini album so there are only three songs.
Two of them are songs I wrote.
“That wildcat… I wonder how it is?”
“Wildcat? Who are you talking about?”
Suchan answered his brother’s question lightly.
“It’s a shining image.”
“oh…….”
“oh?”
As I said that and looked at him, Suchan smiled as if he knew everything.
“Ahh!”
So I lifted two fingers and poked them in the eye.
To be exact, the fat above the eye.
If you really poke my eye, it will hurt.
“Why are you poking my eye? Oh, it hurts… … .”
“It’s not that bad, so don’t joke around. Your eyes were weird just now, hyung.”
“Oh my… … Really… … .”
Suchan hyung is just rubbing his eyes.
-dripping.
There is a knock on the waiting room door.
* * *
The five members of Bitna Girls, including Im Jin, swallowed heavily.
The words [Blue Porcelain] written on a piece of paper stuck on the waiting room door induces tension for no reason.
Even at their first meeting, it was a meeting between the debut group of Hako’s new entertainment company and a shining audition star.
Of course, we met from that time on as moving producers.
The phases have risen significantly from each other.
From audition star to national rocker with a cult fandom.
Five girls preparing for their debut are idols who will shake up the hearts of men… no, men.
Im Jin glanced at Kim Mi So with a sidelong glance.
Looking at Kim Mi-so, who has her hands clasped against her chest like an otter, a little bit of competitive spirit flares up in her.
-What should I do, I’m so nervous… Should I take a pill or something?
Kim Mi-so quickly established herself despite debuting with little training time.
If you look at it that way, you could say he was born with talent and a strong heart, but he starts to tremble when he sees someone moving.
I know.
Kim Mi-so is a fan of Lee Dong-ha.
Even so, I can’t just sit still and give in.
Just because you liked someone first doesn’t mean you’re in love with them, right?
Im Jin also has special feelings for Lee Dong Ha.
When I think about it this way, I wonder if I left my love life up to Lee Dong-ha… …
It’s not like they don’t show it, but there’s a secret competition among female idols to see who can seduce whom and when.
A giraffe.
appearance.
In addition, he is currently the strongest in terms of musical ability and short-term impact.
The rough skills and the occasional look of superiority in his eyes were somehow… different.
There are so many talented and handsome kids out there, so what’s different?
A bit… … the charm of a male that isn’t idol-like?
And yet, there is a childlike innocence?
In fact, if you move and twist, you will definitely feel a sense of superiority.
There are also many girls who encourage a spirit of challenge.
One of the girl groups even rubbed shoulders with me as we passed through the waiting room hallway.
-Is this a shoulder bun? Are you picking a fight?
That day, he was so shocked that he couldn’t stand on stage.
It is a well-known fact among idols that they were unable to go on stage because they were embarrassed.
Anyway, the article said that he suddenly collapsed and was taken to the hospital.
Was that the beginning of the female idols who first moved to Idoha…?
Everyone is just watching from afar for fear of being embarrassed.
Sometimes, I see confident female idols who are different and have skills.
If you smile with your eyes.
―… … .
―… … ?
-What are you looking at?
-yes……?
-Why are you looking at me like that?
-Yes… … No… … That’s not it… … I’m sorry… … Ugh… … !
A female idol who is idolized by men for her healthy upper body dropped an object and bent over when Lee Dong-ha passed by.
―Ahhh―!
There was a time when I was laughing and chatting with the members and got caught by Lee Dong-ha, who couldn’t see ahead.
Of course, after that, Lee Dong-ha apologized, but he had already sold out and ran to his waiting room.
That’s how it is.
So now everyone is in a wait-and-see mode.
“It’s okay. Just be natural… … .”
As the manager of the Bitna Girls, who was holding a handycam, nodded while speaking softly, Im Jin knocked on the waiting room door twice.
-who are you?
move.
Just the sound of your voice makes me convinced to move.
“Senior. This is our Bitna Girls.”
Im Jin opened the door as naturally as possible.
-Come in.
* * *
My brothers are just smiling.
I’m not saying this because I’m evil.
There’s a limit to how much we can joke around in the waiting room.
One time, when Dong-sik asked if I should bring a janggi board, I scolded him.
They already have a solid band image, so they’re not going to compete with that image.
Even backstage, perhaps because times have changed, there are cameras everywhere.
There are also idols who turn on a communication app and do live broadcasts.
At the agency level, we also film videos to be uploaded to YouTube for fan management.
The broadcasting station also shoots footage to be used in programs that film the backstage scenes.
There’s a lot of snow everywhere.
Just like now.
“What is this? Are you filming this? Is it live?”
At my words, it wasn’t Bitnaris or anyone else, but Suchan who nodded slightly.
“I didn’t say anything because I wanted to make it look natural. The company asked for my cooperation, so I said okay. Meeting a priest… … things like that. It’s a live broadcast.”
“is it so?”
“Oh. Chief Gil Min-seok told me to do that.”
They are secretly passing the responsibility to Chief Gil Min-seok… … .
It’s okay.
Suchan hyung is actually good at riding the line.
If you were sure I wouldn’t like it, you would have told me in advance.
Or cut it in advance.
“One, two, three! Hello! We are! Light… … !”
“Don’t do that. Sit down.”
“Ah… … yes!”
Five women fill the waiting room… … Ha… … For a moment, I wonder if they should have done a mixed group.
No matter how much my brothers dress up and put on makeup, they don’t smell this good.
This is a fresh, feminine scent that can’t be created with just perfume.
Anyway, on our side, Soo-chan quickly turned on the communication app to monitor and went into Bitnaris’ live broadcast.
I checked it by sticking my head in from the side.
[ㅋㅋㅋThis is so awkward!]
[Are you close? I heard you guys didn’t have any trouble moving. Didn’t you hit on our kids while working on the song?]
[Yeah. They’re the same age, and they’re both priests, but it seems like they’re forcing the connection.]
[What the hell? There’s a whole truckload of idols lined up to get songs from my oppa?]
[Im Jin, you’re wagging your tail again! Don’t smile like that at my brother!]
The arena has already opened.
Fans who support the members of Bitnaris.
They are dark warriors who mainly operate in the shade and support the sunny side.
Consisting mainly of men.
While they were cheering for Bitnaris in the chat window, somehow they found out that I was on the communication app, and our fans quickly started to take over the chat window… … .
They are all-weather warriors who are active regardless of whether it is sunny or shady.
This is a bit funny… … Women are more active and violent… … What’s going on?
It’s not that I have any gender bias… … it’s just like that.
While the chat window was in chaos.
“… … .”
“… … .”
Is it because there is no host?
There is an awkward silence for a moment.
at that time.
Suddenly a man stood up from his seat.
To turn this awkward atmosphere around.
“Haha, you came to see Dong-ha?”
“Ah… … That’s true… … I came here to greet you all.”
“Shall we get out?”
“Ah, no, senior… … !”
“Really? Is that really okay?”
“Please speak comfortably.”
“This is convenient. If we were to judge by Blue Porcelain’s debut, we would have been the latter. Shouldn’t we have gone to say hello? Right? Oh, I feel sorry for this.”
It was Hong Young-pil.
Is this guy secretly good at it?
I definitely can’t ignore his entertainment experience.
Whether you eat from the back or the front.
Eating jjambbap is all the same… … .
As Youngpil Hyung came out, the face of Bitnaris Manager, who was holding a handycam behind Bitnaris, brightened.
I can feel the tension slowly easing among the members of Bitnaris.
‘This child is exactly like his mother… … .’
For a moment, my gaze was stolen by Kim Mi-so.
It’s not that Kim Mi-so is incredibly pretty.
Honestly, if we’re going to talk about just one thing that’s pretty, I think Im Jin is a bit prettier.
It also has a mature charm.
So, it’s not just because she’s pretty, but because I keep thinking of Eunsol.
My eyes met with Kim Mi-so’s, who was checking my gaze with a tense face.
Suddenly.
Another rant came out of my mouth.
“How are you, Mom?”
