Debut or Die

Chapter 274

Episode 274 If

a guy with a strong sense of inferiority and a strong competitive spirit participated in the survival audition, even if he handled it perfectly in the beginning, his true intentions would leak out.

‘Because it’s a program that deliberately encourages that kind of psychology.’

In particular, by the time the first team match is in progress, you must have already checked the public’s first reaction to the participants.

I don’t know the exact ranking, but everyone knows it by the number of views and mentions.

‘You know you’re at the top. And a player who would be a threat to the position.’

If you see the original possibility well, you become more obsessed.

The probability that Chae Seo-dam was included in Mirinae’s ‘bad contestants’ was not low.

I opened my mouth again.

“If you ask me what kind of contestant I was… .”

-Uh, but I could be prejudiced! It’s hard to say who specifically did something wrong!

“Yes.”

I answered monotonously.

“I don’t mean to use it for the purpose of slandering anyone. I just have a little concern. Because when you debut there, you will belong to the same company as us.”

-Uh~ That’s kind of like that!

“yes.”

After taking a break here, I ask.

“therefore… May I ask you the most memorable naughty thing you’ve ever seen?”

An unstoppable voice came from over the receiver.

– Oh that’s what! Will it be okay?

done.

“sure.”

-Yes! The thing that bothered me the most was pretending not to hear!

“Ah, did you ignore it?”

It’s a bit one-dimensional.

– No no! therefore… . Oh how can I explain this?

Do you know if you ask me?

It was then.

– Huh?

-sister!

The sound of running beyond the phone became loud with exclamations like screams.

“… ?”

There was no sound for a moment, as if the phone had been turned off, and then the voice changed.

– Hello, senior! This is Mirinae’s Park Min-ha!

was second.

“yes… . Hello Minha.”

-yes!!

I’m gasping for a quick change. Did you misunderstand this as a love affair?

“I called because I had questions about the new season of < Idol Inc. >.”

-Ah, if you have any questions, I will explain! Because I went too!

I’m in a hurry.

“I see. I was wondering if only Jeong Yul-gi appeared in the picture because the picture hasn’t been filmed yet.”

– Ah ah!

It’s a lie. It was just because I thought it would be easier for Jung Yul-gi, who was number one, to hear the answer.

-yep… What story are you curious about, senior!

I moderately shortened the conversation I had with 1st place before delivering it. Then Park Min-ha inhaled.

-ah… That’s it.

“I think Min-ha saw it too.”

– Uhm yes.

The junior spoke hesitantly with a tone of disapproval.

-What my sister said… It’s a false story.

oh.

“Who are you?”

-yes. It was a way to make myself look like a victim.

Second place became more and more calm as he explained.

-therefore… Obviously, when there was no camera or microphone, I was given a new practice time, but in front of the camera, I said, ‘I’ve never heard of such a thing’, dejectedly.

“… !”

-I heard it while my sister and I were on the move to get something. You wouldn’t have known we were there.

It must have been a subjective scene where the participants knew the editing points and created them.

“If it was that way, I think the victim would have had a lot of backlash. It’s a lie.”

-yes. So just… ‘Yes, you said it, but I may not remember. I’m sorry I couldn’t hear you,’ he said in a low-key manner.

“… … .”

-That’s why it’s ambiguous to say that we saw it… .

nice head

It was an act of fooling the opponent. It is an act that fully considers the angle of editing.

then… .

“The victim wasn’t ranked high. I’m sure he wasn’t the type to have a lot of friends.”

So that you can be banned from the board right at the next ranking announcement. to prevent trouble

-… yes. hmm.

“What is the position of the victim?”

-Dance.

I didn’t pause on purpose and immediately asked the next question.

“And the person who did it must have the right to debut.”

-… ! that’s right

“Ah, if it’s sensitive, it’s okay not to answer.”

The reaction was not refined, probably because of carelessness. I’m sorry, but that response alone was nothing short of positive. Anyway, if I get on the air, it will come out unconditionally.

‘A definite debut right now in a dance position.’

There were only two or three people, including Chae Seo-dam. And considering that it is quite similar to the case I heard from Sun Ah-hyun… .

‘In fact, it’s safe to say that it’s Chae Seodam.’

He was also a guy with a lot of brains.

The same position within the team that can be a part competition with you. Because of their low ranking and limited interpersonal skills, they used easy-going participants as sacrifices.

And considering the editorial style of the production crew… It seems that the victim’s plan will be dealt with with heat.

‘If this is the case, it will be difficult to snip after being eliminated.’

Didn’t you already defend yourself by pretending to lose on the spot, saying ‘It could be something I don’t remember’?

In a state where the image is fixed, it only seems to be inferior to the dropout’s 1st place.

‘… Too bad.’

There is no way to rescue the victim.

I clicked my tongue, but it wasn’t really a bad situation for me.

Doesn’t it mean that you are always showing your personality here? It seems easy to catch the tail.

Didn’t you actually catch Mirinae once?

‘It would be difficult for us to do it ourselves… .’

I have no choice but to use this currency now.

“… Do you have any more schedules related to < Azusa > this season?”

-yes? yes. Since we’re giving away a song, I think we’ll probably go there one more time! that… The 2nd team is confirmed and it is around the midterm evaluation.

“Then can you look at the atmosphere of the trainees at that time?”

Klopp.

A swallowing sound came from the other side of the phone.

– May I ask the reason for this!?

“Because I heard what you just explained… I feel so bad. If I do something worse, I will try to keep some distance even if I debut and become the same agency.”

-ah. um okay!

Second place seemed to be more relaxed.

And after adding the words ‘I’ll try, but please don’t expect too much from me’ several times, he politely greeted me and hung up.

Gradually, besides the word ‘I will work hard’, I see that I am adding self-contained words.

– Good night, senior!

“Yes, Minha too. Excuse me for being late.”

I hung up.

“hmm.”

The situation was fine.

This bastard seems to be spinning his head, but gradually I can see that he will do something reckless.

‘If it were me, I would have bought it unconditionally.’

It was at this point in time that I didn’t know that we were number one, so I can understand that I was obsessed with ‘continuing the upward trend’ rather than ‘solidifying’.

And now that we’ve won first place… I’m trying to be vigilant slowly.

“… … .”

Maybe I’ll catch something interesting, so I’ll have to make another string.

It’s time to take a break from filming before the first ranking announcement.

After thinking about it for a while, I put in a text message.

[I watched the broadcast. I hope you have good results. I’ll cheer you up]

My opponent is Gold 2 Kwon Hee-seung.

* * *

I checked the next morning and Gold 2 replied right away.

[Hyung ?? Thank you so much for your support, I couldn’t contact you in case it would be burdensome!]

[I’ll do my best. I’ll see you on stage! (Heart blowing emoticon)]

Thanks to the occasional exchange of regards, it must have felt like a nuance of ‘I suddenly contacted you because it seems to be popping up’.

And for being back on that damn show, he looked pretty hopeful and spirited. This guy deserved it.

‘I got the platinum this time.’

Gold 2 escaped gold.

In addition, he received good editing points and is on a winning streak.

Originally, the second participation in a survival event was often a jackpot or a side hit, but it was a jackpot.

-Heeseung doesn’t have X or Jeongbyeon’s icon . -As expected, he’s

an old

gangster .

Even if there is an existing fan base, the possibility of a debut is considerable in that it is a good performance and has not cooled off even after the broadcast began.

‘And if I had to ask about the Gold 2 position, it would be closer to dancing.’

What does that mean… It means that there is a high probability that ‘Chae Seo-dam’ was filmed.

If anything, it’s a target that needs to be kept in check.

“What kind of text at Mundaemundae?”

“goal… I’m doing it for Kwon Hee-seung.”

“hmm.”

“I heard an interesting noise last night.”

I told the details of the call with Mirinae. And added some reasoning.

“Ah, I see. okay.”

Big Sejin smiled and nodded his head. And he turned on his smartphone.

[Big Sejin: How are you all doing well (eye-rolling emoticon)]

[Big Sejin: The Azusa 1st team match, doesn’t it just remind me of our team when I see it lol Big in me… The legendary stage of the legend!]

He briefly activated the group chat room of ‘Aktober 31’, which was the team at the time of the first team match of < Azusa >.

And after a few days of hard work, we got active responses and participation from Gold 2.

[Big Sejin: How about Mr. Heeseung? Are you showing the legendary stage once again

? (Shy emoticon)]

Bae Se-jin was taken aback by the group message room suddenly ringing.

“He has this… why?”

“< Azusa > spying this season.”

“Spying? … ah! Gnome. okay.”

Bae Se-jin suddenly became cooperative.

And it seems that I myself tried to write something.

[Big Sejin: Tonight, we are going to watch < Azusa > while eating an apple. Doesn’t the apple

seem to taste

spicy

?

[Golden Age Ha Il-jun hyung: Haha Se-jin is still the same!]

“… … .”

thud.

Bae Se-jin hit his head and fell on the sofa.

Well, since everyone is doing that, it’s okay if you don’t feel ashamed.

In any case, it played a part in lowering the tension and making it more comfortable, so it’s no different than doing what you’re supposed to do.

And after a few weeks the time came.

[Participant Chae Seo-dam who was not notified of the changed practice time]

[Frozen team atmosphere]

[Chae Seo-dam: … no i’m sorry I wouldn’t have heard I’m sorry.]

[Lee Ho-yoon: No, that’s not it (editing), so I definitely said it!]

[Chae Seo-dam: Yes, you said it, but I think I remembered it wrong… .]

‘That scene’ was finally aired.

“Wow, that’s great.”

“I know.”

The members are watching the episode in the living room while Sun Ah-hyun is playing the punch needle in the room.

I have already discussed all the related matters.

[Q: What’s unfair?]

[Chae Seo-dam: It can’t be helped. I can’t ruin the team atmosphere… It’s okay.]

Even the interview with Chae Seo-dam in an exquisite location is typical of Azusa’s editing taste.

“The probability that you really couldn’t remember because of a fatal memory problem… .”

“no. He’s just a bad guy.”

Bae Se-jin hardened his expression and glared at the screen. I guess I got a feeling.

Anyway, the broadcast continued as it was.

[The winning team is… ‘Changer!’]

[Whoa!!]

[You will receive a survival lottery ticket! and… With an injury, you can appear on Tnet’s global music broadcast < Music Night >!]

And the team to which Chae Seo-dam belonged won the championship.

“Now, the right to live is also given at random by lottery.”

“Iknow, right.”

They are the ones who dry people’s blood. Of course, there are things I need to do right away when I have time to think about these impressions.

‘Because it’s been confirmed that the guy I heard from Mirinae is Chae Seo-dam.’

After the program ended, I followed the guys who naturally dispersed and entered the room with Big Sejin.

It was time to implement what was discussed.

“Do I?”

“okay.”

This guy is better than me. Big Sejin shrugged his shoulders and made a phone call.

to gold 2.

“Recording?”

“Can’t you? He uses an apple phone.”

good.

Shortly after, the phone was connected cleanly.

“Oh Hee-seung. I’m calling in case you don’t know… . Actually, I’ve heard some stories.”

-yes?

Big Sejin processed and explained what she heard from Mirinae. Of course, the source was appropriately changed to another staff member.

Of course, the tone is not slander, but worry about Gold 2.

“… because But when I saw the show today, that… I really hoped that scene would come out.”

-… … .

Gold 2 was silent for a moment. But soon, a long, long sigh was heard over the phone.

-ah… . Oh, it was kind of strange.

yes.

“Did something bother you?”

-yes! In our chat… Oh anyway! After coming out of the rankings, his attitude towards me became a bit strange.

“Could you keep me in check?”

– That’s right! I get it now… . But for humanity to be like this! Oh why does this keep happening to me? It was like that last time too!

Gold 2 whines.

Come to think of it, Gold 2 suffered extraordinary checks and disregard from Choi Won-gil last season. So this seems to make more sense.

Big Sejin spoke softly.

“Once he debuts, he will be in the same group as you. So I thought it would be better to tell them to be careful just in case, so I called!”

-Ugh… . your brother! thank you really… . oh my life

Gold 2 grumbled and sighed heavily before hanging up.

Took.

Big Sejin put down his smartphone and laughed.

“The ground rice is fine.”

“good.”

At this level, Gold 2 will join as an assistant in case of emergency.

After shrugging my shoulders, I gave the guy who asked for a high five a slap in the palm of my hand and left.

Click.

And it was time to enter my room.

Seon Ah-hyun, who was sitting at her desk and tidying up the finished rug, asked quietly.

“excuse me… Oh, have you seen Azusa?”

“… !”

Did you hear it?

I nodded. Seon Ah-hyun spoke calmly.

“It’s okay. Me next time… I want to sit down and watch it with you.”

“… okay.”

Seon Ah-hyun had a slightly pale face, but smiled and finished tidying up and got up from her seat.

“Because I can’t go on like this… I want to get better.”

“okay.”

I patted him on the back.

‘I’ll just show you a short video.’

However, the opportunity for this ‘challenge’ came sooner than I thought.

A few days later.

“Hello, senior!”

Because Testa ran into the contestants of < Idol, Inc. > this season, who were carrying a lot of cameras, in the hallway of the broadcasting station.

It was a privilege of the winning team to appear on a music show.

‘X feet.’

Of course, he is among them.

“hello.”

Chae Seo-dam.
