The Crown Prince in the Mang Game is Good at Idols - Chapter 147
Only Noblemtl
Episode 147
Along with the announcement that Celeste will be joining StarUs, a photo was also posted on the official account.
A photo of the members waving their hands as a group.
Below that, the caption read, “See you at 19:00 on the 28th!”
‘at las!’
It is no exaggeration to say that all K-pop idols use the application, StarUs.
The ways in which idols and fans can communicate are extremely limited.
If you want to see the members up close while they are busy with their schedules, you have to wait on the way to work, apply to watch a music show, or win a spot at a fan signing event.
Many fans complain that they are having a hard time due to various restrictions.
The best way to solve this communication problem is through StarUs Live and Messages.
“Ah, I’m so happy I don’t have to use the laggy K-Plus Live.”
Pyo Joo-hyun felt her insides opening up.
Before her official debut, Celeste used KPlus Live, a broadcasting app created by KNet.
It was great to hear that we could escape from apps that always had poor streaming quality due to unstable servers.
It’s not just broadcasting.
If you apply for a member-specific subscription in StarUs, you can use private messages to chat directly with the member you selected.
Of course, idols send messages to their subscribers en masse, but from the fans’ perspective, it feels like they are chatting one-on-one with their favorites.
Here, your favorite person reads and even replies to the message you sent?
For fans, there was nothing more thrilling than that.
‘You’ll be broadcasting more often now, right?’
Pyo Joo-hyun found herself humming.
The live broadcast on the 28th will probably be held under the pretext of celebrating Celeste’s debut.
In official live broadcasts, it is common for all members to gather together and briefly communicate with fans.
But in the future, the number of times you turn on personal broadcasting will increase.
This is why fans love Stardust Live.
My idol, who I could only see on stage during normal times, speaks like a normal neighborhood kid on his personal live broadcasts, and excites fans with his witty remarks like a comedian.
In particular, idols who communicate with their fans in a very interesting way often become incredibly famous after being featured in videos made by fans.
Pyo Joo-hyun wanted to see Karis’ Star Earth live as soon as possible.
‘It would be fun to just sit there and do nothing.’
So a day passed and it became the 28th.
Pyo Joo-hyun stretched out her legs and enjoyed the leisure time in the empty house.
The family, including his younger brother, went down to celebrate his grandmother’s birthday.
Pyo Joo-hyun said that it was difficult for her to miss the event because of work, and sent some money to Pyo Joo-hyun.
It was at this exact moment that Celeste’s live broadcast was caught.
It doesn’t get any better than this.
She sat on the sofa with a cold beer and some snacks and waited for 7 o’clock to come.
As soon as the phone clock read exactly 19:00, a StarUs notification was generated.
[Star Live ON! Celeste]
Pyo Joo-hyun, who entered the broadcast with a smile on her face, was greeted by an unexpected sight.
“What are you guys wearing on your heads?”
* * *
This time it wasn’t my idea either.
“If you have cake, you have to wear a cone hat!”
“Is that so?”
“That’s it!”
As soon as Manager Hyung said that he prepared a debut celebration cake for our Star Live, Yoo Min Ha clenched her fists and strongly emphasized the importance of the cone-shaped hat.
As a result, all members started performing live wearing colorful hoods.
“I don’t know why I’m pink again.”
“It feels like it’s become Charis’s exclusive color now?”
“I never once said I liked pink, Siyoon.”
“What a shame, Lord Charis. You were destined to end up like this ever since you started wearing that pink Hawaiian shirt.”
“Wasn’t it much earlier than that?”
Heo Yu-bin, who had overheard the conversation between me and Kang Si-yoon, interrupted with a laugh.
“Brother Charis, you already dressed up as a princess during the sports day.”
“Oh, that’s right! That’s when the build-up started, Lord Charis.”
“If you’re going to use a strange tone from the beginning, don’t mix in foreign words like build-up. It doesn’t fit.”
“Wow, the standards are really strict.”
“Shh, everyone concentrate! The broadcast is about to start.”
Thanks to Song Hyeong-bin’s mediation, Kang Si-yoon was able to keep his mouth shut.
The staff, who had secured the camera tightly, signaled that the broadcast was on.
“Let me say hello, two, three!”
“Your best selection! Hello, this is Celeste!”
“Hello, Celeb!”
“Did you eat well for dinner?”
We bowed our heads and shouted slogans loudly.
Yoo Min-ha, who was looking at viewers’ comments on a tablet prepared in advance, slowly read the answers to Cha Eun-gyu’s questions.
“Some people said they had chicken for dinner, and others said they had a simple meal of ramen. Oh, you haven’t eaten yet? You should always eat a lot! Koreans are rice-lovers!”
“Come to think of it, we haven’t eaten yet either.”
“Oh, I see.”
At Kang Si-yoon’s words, Yoo Min-ha blanked out for a moment before smiling.
“We’ll be eating our cake soon!”
“Manager said he’d give it to me as a surprise―”
“Ahem.”
I quickly cleared my throat and interrupted Song Hyeong-bin.
The previously discussed operation was gradually becoming a bubble.
It was due to none other than the members’ self-destruction.
“Didn’t our debut show just air yesterday?”
“That’s right, that’s right! Now it feels like we’ve officially debuted! Don’t you think so, everyone?”
Kang Si-yoon, who is quick-witted, changed the subject as he listened to what I said.
Song Hyeong-bin and Yoo Min-ha also nodded belatedly as if nothing had happened.
“It seems like it was only recently that I said I’d show you how cool it would be once I came up with a proper greeting, but it’s already mid-July.”
“Time seems to have passed really quickly.”
Since it was already half a spoiler, Manager Hyung quickly set up the cake on the table.
A design cake printed with our group photo.
The top of the cake had a large inscription that said, “Congratulations on Celeste’s debut!”
“Put the candle in!”
Song Hyeong-bin carefully placed a long candle in the center of the cake.
As luck would have it, Heo Yu-bin’s face was in the center, so the printed face was attacked by the cake candles without hesitation.
“Hyungbin hyung… … . Did you really want to stick a candle in my face like that?”
“Because I can’t stick it in reality.”
“I just imagined a candle being stuck in my nose!”
After everyone sang the debut congratulatory song together, they powerfully blew out the candles.
The chat window was filled with countless heart and fanfare emoticons.
We each took a slice of cake and enjoyed a delicious meal to replenish our calories.
“Why do I feel like there are suddenly a lot of comments from overseas fans?”
“I don’t really understand what you’re saying… … .”
Yu Min-ha and Heo Yu-bin, who were eating cake with great enthusiasm, were unable to come to their senses due to the large amount of foreign language being poured out.
The gaze of my peers naturally turned to me, the only foreigner on the team.
“Brother Charis, please translate this for me!”
“It’s time to show off your abilities, brother!”
So, after receiving the tablet, I looked at the comments in Japanese, English, French, and Spanish.
Fortunately, I was able to perform basic interpretation thanks to the skill, ‘Foreign Language Magician’, which I acquired by blackmailing the system.
‘It’s very convenient because I can speak languages other than Estonian, which is my default language, to a certain level.’
I read a comment that said, ‘We are rooting for Celeste so much in the Philippines’ and responded in fluent English.
“Thank you so much for your support, Philippines.”
“Oh, Charis just did something cool!”
“Your English is different from mine. Wow, you are definitely a foreigner, aren’t you?”
“… … Don’t say the obvious as if it’s a new thing, Si-yoon. And English is a foreign language to me too.”
“Everyone, someday I’ll do a broadcast with Karis to verify my passport! When should I do it? Should I do it right this weekend?”
Kang Si-yoon seemed determined to get the passport verification time he had mentioned since .
I’m not kidding, I got goosebumps thinking that my real passport would be revealed to the world.
“I don’t want my first personal live broadcast to be about that.”
“Why, is the passport content not good?”
“… …Brother Charis.”
As Kang Si-yoon grabbed my arm and shook it, Ji Yoon-cheol, who had been silent, called out to me quietly.
He continued speaking while glancing at Kang Si-yoon.
“… … The first solo live will be with me.”
“hmm?”
“Because we’re roommates.”
“Well, since we’re sharing a room, it’ll be easy to turn on the broadcast.”
“great.”
When Ji Yoon-cheol nodded briefly, Kang Si-yoon looked at the two of us alternately and looked dumbfounded.
“No, no? Wait a minute? Why is this conversation going on without my permission?”
“Unfortunately, you were pushed to the next turn, Siyoon. And let’s think deeply about the passport disclosure content.”
“I’m just saying I won’t do it.”
The moment Ji Yoon-cheol and I said we would do the show together, the chat room went into chaos.
I could feel once again that there are so many people who have been waiting for our personal broadcast.
“Oh, we forgot something important.”
“to?”
“What is it?”
Song Hyung-bin, who had finished eating the cake, snapped his fingers and demanded the members’ concentration.
Then, Heo Yu-bin and Yoo Min-ha raised their heads with their mouths covered in cream.
If I were there, I would have cleaned it up right away, but unfortunately, Chae Eun-gyu didn’t seem to have any intention of doing that.
“I have to tell you that I have my first music show tomorrow!”
“Oh, that’s right!”
“I was so busy eating cake.”
“Everyone, we will be appearing on Music K Showdown for the first time tomorrow, so please show lots of interest!”
“I will work hard and show you a good performance!”
Our first live time was set to be around 20 minutes.
I have a busy schedule starting tomorrow, so I should finish up early today and rest.
So, leaving my regrets behind, I said goodbye to my fans.
“thank you!”
“I love celebrities!”
“See you tomorrow, Celeb!”
That’s how the day’s schedule ended.
Maybe it was because they communicated directly with their fans while broadcasting, but everyone’s tension was high and they exuded heated energy even after entering the dorm.
“There’s a music show tomorrow. My heart is racing so fast.”
“Didn’t we all go out to Muka for promotion during the A6 period?”
All seven members of Celeste had obtained the right to appear on a music show through .
So I was able to experience the music broadcast in advance.
The feeling then and now were very different.
‘At that time, I was promoted as a trainee, and now I’m promoted to Celeste, so it’s natural.’
When everyone was gathered in the living room, chatting away, still unable to sleep.
Everyone’s cell phones rang at the same time.
“Is Changmin your older brother?”
“I guess you posted something in the group chat.”
I also turned on my phone and checked the contents.
Manager Hyung wrote a long notice and sent it to us.
[How to use Starus Private Message and things to keep in mind]
My heart raced a little when I saw the title written at the top.
Celeste’s personal subscription and private messages will open in two hours.
