Debut or Die

Chapter 296

On the day when the notice and reservation schedule for the

296th episode of the agency’s concert was announced, a joint performance practice schedule was scheduled.

Thanks to that, I saw some reactions in the second half of practice.

To summarize… As expected.

-Hey, it looks like it’s going to be jam. When was the show?

-T-One really pushes people from Azusa. What happened to TV programming?

-I don’t think they’re so good that they misunderstand that the kids are doing well. Oh please

-Ajusa

‘s debut group is

really good. A whirlpool of interest.

Can not help it. TV broadcasting of an agency concert is a unique case, and it has both anxiety and anticipation factors.

Moreover, since they are three teams from audition programs, their popularity is good.

As accessibility is good thanks to the Tnet channel organization, those who are interested can watch it by simply turning the channel.

It is rare to find someone who likes all three teams of this agency.

‘So there’s only one thing that’s certain.’

The point is that among the three Azusa-born teams, the team that lags behind the most can be destroyed by ridicule from all directions.

Fans don’t have pride or love-hate for their agency, so they never cover each other.

‘Then I’ll end up feeling disgusted and tired.’

There was no need to pour more oil on it, so the joint stage with Mirinae this time was the same.

There is one more factor to consider besides hybridity.

‘I had to avoid stages that were set up for direct comparison.’

And the stage was already set like that.

… I didn’t know it would be this hard.

-Here, here! If we just put this step in when we land, it would be so cool, right?

-If you don’t mind, I thought about how it would be if we saved more of the freeze at the end of our first chorus… !

-Ah~ Shall we all take a look here? Even now, we’re really good at it, but don’t we look ten times cooler if our heights are straight when entering the bridge? It’s clean~

The other side also has a lot of greed for the stage, so in the composition where they run into each other to avoid losing, the difficulty goes up.

In the end, my stamina was consumed all the way up the escalator.

‘Are you going to dance this time?’

I was conflicted with the remaining points, but I didn’t take more because I was conscious of the fact that leveling up using the system was no longer possible.

The moment of natural increase is sure to come. My stats are enough for me right now.

“Shall we take another breath?”

“… !”

So in the end, people are just pretending to be moderate, so they are rolling as if they are getting some kind of spirit to make a special stage that they expect… is the conclusion.

I acknowledged it after checking the appearance of the team members.

‘I think it’s okay to reveal the behind-the-scenes of practice.’

There are so many male and female high schools, and there are so many dancers in this situation, it is no different from just self-control training. I wiped my sweaty temples.

‘Still, the picture will come out well.’

“Oh, it fits well here.”

“I’m really proud of you!”

I hope the agency won’t be vain after watching the stage.

“Shall we finish it today?”

“yes!”

I shrugged my shoulders and resumed practice without saying anything.

And the rest of the free time went by in an instant.

* * *

Backstage with audience cheers and music.

‘I have to do well.’

Park Min-ha, who debuted as the second unofficial leader of Mirinae, swallowed.

The performance is enjoyable. However, the performance that was ‘if you can’t do it, it’s over’ was a problem right before the start.

This is because the enormous burden overwhelms the brain as much as the eyes are spinning.

‘Woohwangcheongsimhwan… I couldn’t have done anything without it.’

what are the other people doing? She suddenly looked to her side.

The one there was Park Moon-dae, who was entrusting his face to the staff.

Sweat dripped from his tall, white face. He pointed his finger at his waist.

“here. The mic is off.”

“yes yes!”

‘and… .’

Park Min-ha tried to admire it for a while, but immediately came to his senses.

It was definitely a handsome face, but there were too many things I had seen and heard so far to be thrilled.

It’s still playing in surround in my head.

-Have you heard of the US at work lately?

-The victim was not ranked high. I’m not the type to have many friends.

The company seemed to be talking to some kind of ghost whenever they talked about Testa or something.

‘How long did you know… .’

A strategic human figure that is difficult to guess what kind of picture he is acting while looking at.

‘How on earth can a person live like that when he grows up?’

Watching the re-listing season of < Azusa >, looking back at myself who thought Park Moon-dae was cute, I sometimes felt like banging my head against the wall with Park Min-ha.

It’s the past me, that’s not it!

Then, a pleasant voice came from right next to me.

“Let’s go up~”

“… ! yes!”

At Lee Se-jin’s words, Park Min-ha immediately returned to reality.

‘stage!’

Meanwhile, Lee Se-jin, who was smiling, made a hand gesture and started running while talking to Park Moon-dae.

“… … .”

To be honest, that senior was also scared. Park Min-ha recalled the past practice.

‘Come to think of it, I was doing as the old man said… .’

Looking back now, I even thought that elements that seemed to have been discussed and decided by everyone were actually involved.

Are all audition candidates like that? Then why is everyone in our group so naive… .

“phew.”

“Minha, let’s go!!”

“Nep.”

Park Min-ha trudged along to the tempo of Jeong Yul-gi, who moved excitedly while pushing his back. I had a lot of trouble.

But right behind the scenes.

Wow!

“… … .”

The smell of dry ice. The metal smell of the stage skeleton. The feel of the costumes and lenses.

The air on the stage had a magical power that made people awaken.

So Park Min-ha also thought.

‘Still, I’m confident on stage.’

I could do well.

‘I won’t be pushed.’

When I turned my head, I saw the faces of three people who were obviously thinking the same thing.

The countdown ended there.

“One!”

That’s how the four people’s stage began.

First of all, what filled the venue was the wide bass of the electronic sound derived from the sound of the piano.

The accompaniment melody was a song familiar to the audience.

‘It’s an attack.’

It was an intense OST of an action movie series that hit theaters in the second half of last year, sung by a mixed band.

-Woa-Woah Woa-Woah…

And it wasn’t uncommon for KPOP idols to cover famous pop songs on days when they had a special performance in mixed gender.

It may sound a little strange, but it was because I was less repulsed than when I performed on a mixed stage with an idol song.

Maybe it’s because the feeling of ‘performance’ has been strengthened thanks to the distance that comes from the difference in language and emotion.

So, the audience gave a normal reaction to the idea of ‘a possible choice’.

Until the singer appeared.

Whiik.

The first to go on stage is a group of dancers.

Dancers, dressed in bizarre achromatic clothes that cover their entire bodies, perform group dances based on repetitive movements.

‘oh.’

Magnificent at first. However, repeating a short routine throughout the interlude is getting tiresome.

Even the lighting was monotonous.

-Is it cool..?

-??

-What are you trying to do lol

The moment people got used to everything in just 15 seconds of Jeonju.

Chiwiiik –

Suddenly, with a cool tearing sound, the black group stops.

And in the middle of it, the footsteps of four people who stood out quickly and unstoppably jumped out in a row as if they were trained.

Pinpoint lighting follows.

The outfit she wore was a nice jumpsuit with a loose silver rider jacket lightly on it.

Behind them, the black crowd stares at them.

Took.

front of the stage. Throwing something black from their shoulders to the side, the four stood with their chins raised with a firm posture.

[Ooh]

And a song with a sense of space comes back like a storm.

This time, all colors and accompaniments at once.

[Sometimes it doesn’t matter]

In the middle of colorful lights and electronic sounds splendidly bouncing, Park Moon-dae’s well-spoken vocals burst into the top of the song.

Black dancers like shadows follow behind the big and intense choreography.

[if the world comes to an end]

[or not.]

They formed a formation and mixed men and women according to body balance, but there was no pair choreography.

Instead, the parts that were distributed considering only the tone of voice and the line of choreography rushed in without a break.

[Wherever I go

This feeling survives

The mood is all right]

Behind Lee Se-jin, who quickly digests the complex and rich choreography that brings out the taste properly, the high notes explode again.

[Then I’m gonna jump into the fire]

Five times more splendid electronic sounds and beats than the original song, and just as splendid but rough choreography.

The moment when the white noise eats up the accompaniment and catches the hook song.

[Like a bomb]

The laser explodes along with the drop.

[Yeah-ahahahah]

The scaler comes forward, sweeping the floor and picking up a black object.

They appeared earlier and threw it away.

An ambiguous bar with no particular specificity.

However, when Lee Se-jin jumped out again and took a firing stance like a gun with a stick with nothing in it, lasers came out like fireworks from there.

-??

-Well,

it’s exactly the timing and angle to make it look like that.

Subsequently, each movement, which is like a sword, like a bazooka or a gun, pours out and the choreography is connected.

And colored lasers explode like weapon recoil.

-The

angle of the choreography is exquisitely matched, and the lasers and LEDs are decorated like a reaction to the choreography.

The black dancers were knocked down by the colored lasers, and all sorts of sci-fi effects were played on the spot.

In addition, thanks to the exquisitely matched camera work, people watching it on TV could also feel a different taste.

It was like a one-take shot in a well-made action movie, with the person moving in the center changing every move.

Due to the difference in physique, each center finds the most effective movement and adds more flavor to each center.

[Like a bomb

Light up tonight.]

The moment the composition of 1 minute and 55 seconds running like that is over.

“Huh.”

Park Min-ha knew instinctively.

Mirinae didn’t win, but this stage was a success.

[Yeah-ahahahah]

In the middle of the fallen group of black people, the song ended with the four people again putting things on their shoulders and singing the last note in a different tone.

* * *

‘Crazy.’

Park Min-ha staggered backstage and thought blankly.

The stage where they poured out everything to the point of vomiting like this was somehow pleasing. Even on stage, the quality was so good that I felt like my heart would explode.

‘Besides, using the props made the choreography so different that the lack of unity in the choreography really came to life… .’

Moondae Park’s idea was great.

She turned her head away, unable to contain the urge to say good wishes.

Jeong Yul-ki and Lee Se-jin ran away with the staff due to makeup problems.

Then, even if it’s Park Moon-dae senior… !

“hmm.”

However, Mundae Park was drinking water and looking at the other side with sunken eyes.

‘Aren’t you excited?’

Is it possible to make a stage like this on a daily basis?

Park Min-ha was a little shocked, but soon realized that it was not.

‘Ah, you’re watching the next stage.’

He was looking at the monitor. The stage right after this is Testa’s song covered by the debut group of < Azusa >.

And the stage that is coming out right now… .

[Go on picnic~]

‘Is it okay?’

I did better than expected.

Park Min-ha thought about it even during rehearsal, but nodded that the choice of arrangement played a big role.

– Dear Testa senior! I prepared the stage with a picnic!

Because they chose ‘Picnic’ over Testa’s all kinds of conceptually impressive titles.

Excluding ‘Promise’ this time, it seemed like a wise choice to induce a group of people through the most popular of Testa’s songs.

Because the competencies are not directly comparable.

Curious about the person’s thoughts, she inadvertently turned around.

‘What do you think… .’

“… !”

“hmm.”

Park Mun-dae was looking at the monitor with a faint smile.

However, it was not the eyes that contained admiration or looked at the target of check.

Instead, there seemed to be a flash of triumph somewhere on his face.

or sure.

‘uh… ?’

But there was no time to think long.

“I will move!”

“… ! yes! Let’s go!”

Park Min-ha greeted in a somewhat confused state and ran to prepare for the next stage.

‘What was it… . Oh no! Let’s not mind.’

She was determined not to dig out anything more than necessary from Moondae Park.

and after a few minutes

This time, Azusa’s debut group and Park Mun-dae will meet in the hallway.
