Debut or Die

Chapter 232

If I can’t debut, I’ll get sick to death Episode 232

The ridiculous plan to join VTIC with a new member started out as bullshit.

“First of all, juniors have a free debut. alone.”

“… … .”

Are you suddenly talking about solo?

“If there is no special misfortune this year… It would be rather easy to win the rookie award in the male solo category. Because there will be no competitors.”

You speak naturally.

“Didn’t this agency say that it would not support solo activities?”

“I think a pre-debut is worth persuading.”

Cheong-Ryeo calmly gave a positive answer.

‘No matter how much I’m sure it’s a tasting activity before the official debut.’

As expected, the fact that this agency excludes solos to an extreme level is due to this guy’s influence.

I crossed my arms.

“Even if you debut like that, where is the guarantee that you will be successful as a male soloist?”

A male idol who does not belong to a group is going to be in the dark someday when he achieves good grades as a solo artist.

But Cheong-rye laughed haha.

“Ah, not a performance-oriented idol, but a vocal-oriented singer.”

“… … !”

“It’s the first junior from LeTi after VTIC. Are you sure it’s hot? Since the field is different, I will avoid the checks a little.”

That’s what it says.

Besides, the traditional male solo ballad or indie type that aims for a sound source, not a dance-type solo singer like an idol… The batting average is fine.

If only the song is good.

“And early next year, I will release a collaboration song with the VTIC unit. It would be nice if it was the kind that showed some performance.”

“… … .”

Appealing that performance is possible, it connects me with VTIC.

“There are many cases of collaboration songs with the same agency, so even if there is a backlash, it will be at a level that will pass. If the grades are good and the role of the junior is clear, the fans’ repulsion will soften.”

At this point, I know what you mean.

I opened my mouth.

“… And if the main vocal incident over there breaks out, are you really going to accept bullshit like ‘I’d rather have Ryu Kun-woo’ and let me join the group?”

“You are smart. that’s right.”

It means that Ryu Gun-woo will be put in as a substitute for VTIC’s main vocalist as naturally as possible.

‘It sounds crazy.’

It was natural.

The reason I told you about the main vocal case was because it was the most expensive information he was thirsting for.

‘Moreover, it’s an incident that will happen in a year or two, but it’s just at this time.’

That is, verification was easy. I decided that it would be easy to build trust by proving that I came from the future.

However, this bastard is thinking of switching to me instead of trying to keep his form by avoiding controversy.

I furrowed my eyebrows.

“I don’t know why you’re suggesting that when you can prevent it from happening.”

The guy’s expression disappeared.

“Because people can’t fix it.”

“… … .”

“Remember. It is a fact that will be useful in the future.”

It’s pure parts handling.

‘I’m sure he’s crazy… .’

let’s go over

In any case, in other words, even if the group suffers a blow, he will not leave behind any seeds of turmoil that he cannot control.

And instead, he said he would put in a guy who listens well and is desperate as well as a guy who is useful and needs to be monitored.

“So are you going to do it?”

I mean.

‘He goes through something like this.’

You’ll have a chance to do the same group as this baby.

I opened my mouth.

“no. I will decline.”

“… … .”

No matter how you think about it, the plan becomes X if you stick to it.

And isn’t it like completely handing over the hilt to him?

‘This bastard can flatter me, and if things change, he might put me down after my pre-debut.’

Besides, if it’s just a dream, all my actions right now are trying to find a hint to wake up in a coma. Let’s not be adventurous.

‘It goes as close to reality as possible.’

… Bae Se-jin, who couldn’t catch it, will have another chance to recruit if the < Azusa > program collapses.

I clasped my hand.

However, there was no need to fight with this guy, so I started with a very plausible excuse.

“I’m not sure if the solo rookie award part will fit into the mission. If you give me the idol group rookie award, I will die just like that.”

“aha.”

I thought this would work. Cheong-ryeo crossed her arms and smiled cheerfully.

“Haha, then next time you can use another method. I still lack a sense of challenge.”

“… … .”

With this kid… Let’s not talk at length.

Afterwards, Chung-rye did not immediately withdraw the offer, saying, “I will give you a month to spare,” and left without leaving room.

‘It sounds like you’re pretty sure I’ll give up within a month.’

He was a bad kid. I’d rather be a guy in real life who throws pictures of dogs when I’m bored.

I held my breath and got up.

‘Let’s do the next thing.’

Now that we’ve laid out the base food, we’ll have to bring out the recluse.

… Seon Ah-hyun of this dream.

* * *

The room was quiet.

Only the medical machines and the white noise from people moving across the corridor gently enveloped the single-person ward.

It wasn’t that he took a private room in consideration of his status as a public figure.

This is because the patient using this private room is still not awake.

“… … .”

Seon Ah-hyun quietly sat in the caregiver’s chair.

Park Moon-dae had no relatives. Even after Testa became very successful, no one claimed to be a distant relative.

So, other than the hired caregiver, only those who had been involved since he started his career in the entertainment world came into this hospital room.

Around the members who were sober, the people at the company also opened the door from time to time.

However, numerous gifts from fans were still undergoing scrutiny. Thanks to that, the hospital room was empty.

“… … .”

Seon Ah-hyun put a fluffy doll crocheted on the table. It floated directly.

The hand that fell off the doll trembled.

‘Let’s calm down… .’

Sun Ah-hyun held her breath.

He could even pretend to visit this hospital room most often among the members and take care of him.

Because Sun Ah-hyun… Because I was barely hurt.

Unlike members who needed action due to fractures or other reasons, or members who were busy fighting with the company, they were able to move from the beginning.

And I felt a burning guilt over it, even though I didn’t have to.

‘I couldn’t say a word…’ .’

When the other members somehow persuaded or reported the former manager, he couldn’t bear to say anything.

It wasn’t that I was speechless with fear.

It was because he was worried that he, who couldn’t speak properly, would get in the way.

“… … .”

Seon Ah-hyun quietly put her hands together on her lap and stood on the chair.

siblings are fine because you’re my brother

However, while the two people of the same age were persuading the former manager, it was clearly a problem that he could not do anything.

It was the same after the accident.

No matter how brilliant or brave the idea was, lack of speech meant that he needed someone’s cover to deal with public opinion and the company.

‘Even if I get angry with the company, it doesn’t seem to work properly… .’

There was no other half.

However, it was not that he suddenly had medical knowledge and could help with the treatment of Park Moon-dae.

All he did was lead the members to the ambulance that was dispatched after being reported. Because my body was fine.

But even that was half out of his mind.

Seon Ah-hyun clenched her fists.

‘It’s pitiful.’

So he was really useless. At least that’s how it felt to me.

However, because of the worries of a bigger reality, self-loathing was pushed out of the priority.

Park Moon-dae… I have been unconscious for five days.

I heard that the operation was quite successful, but it seemed to be because the shock was so great and there was a lot of blood loss.

‘I should have sat in the back seat then… .’

That would have been a much better result. The door is less injured… .

“… … .”

Sun Ah-hyun wiped her face.

I couldn’t help but cry over this.

At that time, I had to pray.

‘healthily… Nothing happened, no aftereffects.’

I wish you come back soon

* * *

“Wow, seeing you again like this~ Nice to meet you!”

“Oh oh hello… please… .”

“… … .”

Lee Se-jin, who is artificial enough to be sad, and Seon Ah-hyun, who can’t bear to lift his head, say hello.

I shut up and watched it.

My hips were itchy.

‘… Didn’t you say something?’

I thought there was a high probability that I would have put the same gold teeth.

This means that Lee Se-jin did not feel the need to forcefully become close with Seon Ah-hyun.

‘If it’s that face, Lee Se-jin might try stabbing him once for networking.’

It also meant that there was something wrong with Sun Ah-hyun’s performance quality and broadcast editing.

Actually, I saw the broadcast, so I know what happened.

‘… I was checked too hard.’

It was thanks to the fact that in the first team match, the other guys forcibly pushed a part that didn’t suit them and treated the child like an X.

At least, the editing wasn’t very favorable to Seon Ah-hyun, who had suffered this.

-Ahyeon Sun really developed cancer;

– Just because I stutter doesn’t mean I can’t convey my opinion. I was frustrated and cursed at her. Sun Ah-hyun

‘s teammates also received all sorts of curse words, but the public opinion that it was ‘worthy of being bullied’ was also formidable.

Thanks to that, comments like “A kid like that shouldn’t be on survival show” got the most likes and came up, making me giggle.

And Seon Ah-hyun here… It was directly affected by the negative vote and was narrowly eliminated.

I pressed my temples.

“… … .”

‘I took it out once, but… .’

I already knew this guy’s house, so it wasn’t difficult to go and talk.

Fortunately, while I was cleaning out the room, I visited and persuaded my parents as a ‘LeTi trainee’ to bring this guy.

They were so worried about Sun Ah-hyun’s condition that she fell for the name of the agency that managed her image well with artist care.

Of course, persuasion was attached as a condition.

– It’s not a debut right away, so I thought it would be nice to spend time together while practicing.

– Thank you for the student’s words. But if Ahyeon says she doesn’t like it, I won’t recommend it any more.

-… Would it be okay if I tried to convince you?

That way, I proceeded to persuade Seon Ah-hyun and I in the room.

-At the agency… They say that a group debut is possible only when you are included.

-… … .

– I was wondering if you had any plans to come out for practice. i think you will do well

Seon Ah-hyun did not respond or kept her head down, but in the end she nodded.

It looked very painful, but… If you eat well and sleep well, you will be much better.

‘If I can debut properly through practice, my mentality will be fine.’

This is because Sun Ah-hyun is a person with good resilience even though her mentality looks like a broken head at times like this.

‘… I’ve seen it many times.’

well… All you have to do is read extensively. I made my judgment objectively.

and after a while

“Ahyeon, wait a minute.”

“… … .”

Sun Ah-hyun left with her parents to meet the agency officials with her head bowed.

And Lee Se-jin asked me in a coy tone.

“Is that friend also included in this group?”

“I guess so.”

“Um~ that’s right. I heard that you convinced me yourself. Is it true?”

“… … .”

“Hey, you’re good at it~”

Sejin Lee sat down next to him. I held back a snort.

‘Still, did my mentality come back?’

The moment I wonder if it’s roughly the same as when we first met in Azusa.

Lee Se-jin, who was sitting next to him, spoke in a sociable tone.

“hmm… Do you have any other friends in mind at work?”

“… why is that?”

I wondered if the other members were curious. However, Sejin Lee shook his hand and replied lightly.

“uh? No, that friend could go out~ Just in case!”

“… … !”

I’m sure you’ll get out… I felt a strange nuance.

I immediately asked

“Why do you think so?”

“uh? He came here because he was afraid of you.”

“… !!”

“I pretend, but… Oh, wasn’t that something to scare and motivate you on purpose? haha sorry~”

“… … .”

I… did it look like that?

‘It can’t be.’

I persuaded in the most moderate way possible. I have never been coerced or coerced.

‘Just saying that I need Seon Ah-hyun… ‘

At that moment, Sun Ah-hyun’s condition came to mind.

A state in which self-esteem hit the floor and mental was smashed.

and the words I used.

-At the agency… They say that a group debut is possible only when you are included.

… If you didn’t come and I couldn’t debut, it might have sounded like it was your fault… there is.

That’s why Seon Ah-hyun didn’t respond and came with me.

“Well, anyway, you don’t even know who’s coming, right? Okay~”

“… … .”

Lee Se-jin finished the conversation appropriately and walked out of the practice room while fiddling with her smartphone.

I thought about it.

Was the Seon Ah-hyun I knew like that?

Was the Lee Se-jin I knew the one who said these things?

‘… no.’

It wasn’t.

At that moment, all of a sudden, things started to crash.

Standing alone, I traced my course of action… I looked back.

‘The front and back don’t match.’

What did I say and started doing this to debut just like in reality?

Looking for a hint to wake up from a coma?

Where is the guarantee of finding it, and there is even less a definite reason why it should go the same as in reality.

‘It’s just my guess.’

Then the reason why I tried to make this guess with certainty… .

X feet. Because I just wanted to.

I want to embody the life I lived at Bakmundae as it is.

“under.”

I sighed and sat down in the practice room.

And I remembered the message in the status window.

-Enjoy your daydream : ) –

‘Is this a daydream?’

Daydreaming means empty daydreaming.

… So, this was my desire.

It seems that he wanted to take the life he lived as it was. with mine.

But I already know the answer.

This is what I said to Cheongryeo with my own mouth.

-Even if you start over and build the same team, it will never be the same as now. Because the events and stories shared will be different.

That is impossible.

could never be the same… … .

Still, why did I rationalize this shit?

“… … .”

I thought with my head in the giant mirror.

And finally admitted.

‘It’s probably because the past two and a half years have been my life as Park Moon-daero.’

This is because all choices and thinking experiences are mine, even though they were experienced through the body of Park Moon-dae.

Because my mind experienced it firsthand. That couldn’t be changed.

Even if all this shit is over and I go back to my original body, Gunwoo Ryu… That’s my experience, it won’t change.

now i get it

“after.”

I lifted my head against the mirror.

The mirror was fogged up and I couldn’t see my face.

“… … .”

Even though what I should see over there is the face of ‘Ryu Gun-woo’, this dream was not my life.

‘stop.’

been here too long I wanted to go back to reality.

To ‘my reality’ in which I live.

That was the moment.
