The Crown Prince in the Mang Game is Good at Idols - Chapter 213
Only Noblemtl
# 213
As December arrived, the weather became colder.
Unlike the cold wind blowing outside, our spirits were getting hotter day by day.
“Oh, that move just now was really good!”
“Does Yoon-cheol really have a feeling?”
“……thank god.”
Celeste is preparing a stage of unprecedented scale to be presented at the KAMA Awards Ceremony.
From the intro to the ending, there is not a single section where you can relieve tension.
Especially in action parts where communication with others is more important than anything else.
Ji Yoon-cheol wiped the sweat off his face as he put away the model sword.
Kang Si-yoon and Yoo Min-ha, who were watching his practice, gave him generous applause.
“At first, it was kind of cool and sloppy, right? But now it really looks like a bodyguard from a historical drama, man.”
“I want to have long arms and legs like Yuncheol… … .”
Ji Yoon-cheol’s swordsmanship performance is much more dangerous than other stages.
The story unfolds by taking down enemies one by one through meticulous coordination with stuntmen dispatched from the action school.
In this process, if there was even a slight mismatch between the two, it could have led to a major injury.
Even if it’s a model sword made of plastic, if it hits you wrong, it will cause great pain.
Ji Yoon-cheol has to focus on his own acting, but he also has to be mindful of his rapport with other people.
‘It seemed like quite a burden at first, but now I don’t have to worry about that.’
Today alone, I’ve already practiced the swordsmanship scene four times.
The director also sent a signal that it was good, but Ji Yoon-cheol felt that there were still some areas he was lacking in, so he volunteered to practice a few more times.
It was like that in the past too.
Contrary to his appearance, Ji Yoon-cheol has a very strong competitive spirit and would do something repeatedly until he was satisfied.
So, after Ji Yoon-cheol finished today’s rehearsal, the dance break practice began.
After the action scene, everyone moves to the center of the stage, past the fallen enemies.
When I use the flag to create a famous scene, a dance break comes with the accompaniment arranged exclusively for KAMA.
‘You can’t make mistakes on stage.’
Since it is an idea that I proposed, it must be carried out without a single flaw.
The director said that it would be a great scene, but he also strongly advised that even a small mistake could cause a big problem.
It’s a choreography that carries a lot of risk.
But I wasn’t burdened by that kind of feeling.
-bang!
“Gasp, gasp.”
As I successfully performed the final move that signaled the start of the dance break, cheers came from all directions.
“I always find this amazing when I see it.”
Chae Eun-gyu rolled up his sleeves and slapped me on the back.
Then he stared at the flag in my hand.
“Isn’t this heavy?”
“It feels a little heavy when held with one hand.”
“I should try it too.”
Chae Eun-gyu held the flag in one hand and challenged me to do the choreography on the spot.
However, he declared his abandonment halfway through, his arm holding the flag trembling.
“Hey, this won’t work. It’ll probably drop the flag right away, so it won’t work.”
“Is it that heavy? It doesn’t look that heavy.”
“You listen for yourself.”
“okay!”
Then, Kang Si-yoon also raised my flag with great enthusiasm, but after just 3 seconds, he frowned and surrendered.
“Wow, how do you really do this?”
“It’s easier than you think, Si-yoon. Now, look carefully. Just like this. Just lift it.”
As I nonchalantly lifted the flag with one hand, Heo Yu-bin groped my arm.
“Dude, your arm muscles are no joke.”
“Did I ever arm wrestle with a kid like this?”
“There was no need to feel discouraged back then, hyung.”
Song Hyeong-bin encouraged Chae Eun-gyu while laughing heartily.
I tried hard to suppress a bitter smile.
I thought we would once again be talking about the sports day where the crown prince’s ego ran wild, but fortunately, Chae Eun-gyu did not make the sagol soup again.
Instead, a new topic emerged.
“Come to think of it, don’t you sometimes have sports competitions during holidays or vacations? I think I’ve seen it before.”
“Oh, right. Didn’t you do it two years ago?”
In response to the members’ questions, the manager, who had briefly gone out of the practice room to bring water, smiled brightly and explained.
“Oh, you mean ? That one had a problem with the production team last year, so it hasn’t been reorganized since then. I haven’t heard the exact details, but I heard the PD received money from a few agencies or something.”
“Did you deliberately pay money to ask them to make your idol look good?”
“Well, I guess so. Since it’s a show scheduled for a holiday, the viewer ratings are high. It’s bound to be a good opportunity for idols.”
“Is there any chance that it will be reorganized?”
Song Hyeong-bin spoke in a tone full of sincerity.
Why are you glancing at me while speaking so seriously?
“We need to let everyone know that we have this talent on our team.”
“Hahaha! Actually, I also sometimes thought that if Charis went to , she would become a top star right away.”
“That’s right, because I saw it at the sports day~.”
Eventually, it was mentioned again.
I sighed as I placed the flag on the ground.
It’s not that I don’t know the program. Rather, I know it well.
The fact that idols who showed off their overwhelming athleticism there naturally became issues and had their own promotional effect.
It’s not that I don’t like that advantage, but if a situation with such competitive spirit comes up, the Crown Prince’s ego will 100% awaken.
I still don’t know when my abnormal condition will occur.
If we look back at my actions so far, the Crown Prince’s ego has emerged when an interesting situation unfolds externally or when my competitive spirit boils over to an unusual degree within me.
‘You can safely assume that you will definitely wake up in a competition like that.’
Who knows what kind of dark history I will create next.
“What’s the point of talking about a program that’s already gone? Even if I wanted to leave, I couldn’t leave anymore.”
“Oh, so that means if there was an , you would have definitely gone?”
“… … There is no reason not to go out.”
“Did you all hear what Charis said? He clearly said he was going out!”
No, didn’t you say that even if you wanted to leave, the program was canceled?
I shook my head at Kang Si-yoon.
‘Of course, I said that because I thought you wouldn’t have any reason to go out.’
After clearing his throat, Song Hyeong-bin called the members back together.
“Okay, break time is over! Let’s hurry up and do it again until the ending.”
“yes!”
“Oh, and I have some good news!”
Manager Hyung crossed his arms and looked confident.
“The throne that was outsourced will arrive tomorrow. Starting tomorrow, we can practice the ending scene thoroughly.”
“That quickly?”
“oh my god.”
News that our final stage prop has been completed.
A faint smile appeared on my face at this situation where every process was going smoothly.
* * *
The date and location of KAMA, which marks the start of the year-end events, have been announced.
This year’s KAMA will be held on December 21st at Tokyo Dome, Japan.
As an awards ceremony that focuses on interacting with international fans, this year, too, it will be held overseas.
This is a great opportunity for overseas fans who normally have difficulty entering Korea.
Because KNet cannot give up on this type of global ticketing, Korean fans sometimes have no choice but to pay a lot of money to go abroad.
‘Ah, this time it just won’t work… … .’
Homma sighed quietly, rolling over on the bed.
I would love to go to Tokyo Dome and cheer on Celeste live, but realistically that’s not possible.
Money is one thing, but the schedule was the problem.
Unfortunately, this year’s KAMA can only be enjoyed at home.
Homma’s thoughts shifted from regret over not being able to go to the scene to wondering what kind of stage Celeste had prepared.
First of all, since it is a group created through the KNet program, it will definitely receive home ground advantage.
In that case, you’ll have to do at least two songs.
‘It would be best if we did both title songs and also the B-sides, but it seems like there are a lot of teams appearing this time.’
In that case, there probably won’t be time to record the songs.
The fact that a new idol has released two songs is proof that they have been recognized, so they have no choice but to be satisfied.
Homma wondered what kind of feeling the fruit would have had when it changed.
Because of the nature of the year-end stage, it must have been prepared in a different format than a typical music show stage.
‘I don’t know what kind of stage they have prepared, but I’m really looking forward to it.’
I never knew I had this much interest in the end-of-year award ceremonies, which I normally don’t pay much attention to.
I realized once again how much fun it is to support a group that has achieved meaningful results and has a promising future.
As everyone is saying on SNS, Celeste’s name has already been engraved in the Rookie of the Year award.
The key is whether he can win other awards besides the Rookie of the Year award.
‘Honestly, if you look at it only in terms of performance, it deserves an album award.’
In terms of pure sales, no group can match Celeste.
However, the ‘Album of the Year’ award is considered one of the grand prizes within KAMA.
It might be a bit risky for a rookie who just debuted this year to win a grand prize right away.
Even if you get an award for your good grades, the strange ghosts will still see it as prey.
While Homma was lost in her thoughts, a private message notification popped up at the top of her phone.
‘Charismatic!’
She immediately pressed the message and launched the StarUs app.
[Charis: Celeb, it’s dinner time. Has everyone eaten?]
[Charis: Actually, we haven’t had dinner yet, but we’re still thinking about what to eat.]
[Charis: Please recommend a menu.]
A message like no other.
Charis asked celebrities about their daily lives and even recommended dinner menus.
But one thing that was unusual was that Charis of today would sometimes add a flag emoticon at the end of his sentences.
‘Why a flag all of a sudden?’
Usually, these types of emoticons are used without any reason.
This is true whether you’re exchanging messages with friends or talking to people at work.
However, Charis does not use emoticons well and added a flag that does not fit the context.
Charis’ flag emoticon could also be seen in a private message the next day.
At first, I just ignored it and thought it was just like that, but now I can tell.
‘This is definitely something that Charis is spoiling!’
There is no need to include these emoticons in everyday conversation.
For me, a Homma who has been a fan of idols for nn years, this is definitely some kind of spoiler.
Regarding the KAMA stage she is waiting for.
‘Are you going to perform with a flag? How? I can’t draw it well.’
Even just one small signal from an idol can send fans into a frenzy of imagination.
At that time, everyone’s expectations were running high.
December 20th, the day before KAMA, dawned.
