Debut or Die

Chapter 311

If you can’t debut, you’ll die of a disease. Episode 311

The second act of Testa’s concert was a series of endless climaxes.

As the narrative of Rae-bin Kim and Ah-hyun Sun continues, the boy’s inner side, dominated by impulse, eventually flows in a dangerous and dark direction.

A stage to express that passion.

[

Welcome on the day that finally came]

Instead of the sound of traditional musical instruments, fragmented electronic sounds create an ominous noise.

[

Never get away from me ya]

The version of the song that was much darker than the original song was intense and sexy enough to look slightly grotesque.

Ryu Cheng-wu, standing in the center, nodded with an expressionless expression.

‘Joseon Zombie… .’

No concept could be more intense than this, so gamers thought this was the best climax of the most conflicted part.

But no.

For each part that seems like this is the climax, a new build-up goes in and continues to rise.

‘Uh uh uh?’

‘Better me’, which depicts the wandering of a boy who had overcome his enemies but had doubts about himself, followed.

It was an overwhelming shadow performance.

‘This is the climax!’

It wasn’t.

After wandering and gaining enlightenment, the boy returns to his true self and holds a splendid return ceremony.

“… ??”

The stage that unfolded was ‘daybreak’, a combination of the two titles ‘Wheel’ and ‘Drill’ from the last activity.

Firecrackers like fireworks exploded, and the insanely colorful and exciting jaw-dropping performance caught the attention.

[Turn my ferris wheel around

fire-light bursting like a star!]

A shudder flowed.

It was truly a stage worthy of the climax of a concert… But now gamers know it too.

It wasn’t.

‘What else is there?? uh??’

At this point, I was starting to look forward to it.

At the bottom of that psychology, there was also a wish that this crazy performance would continue without ending.

Because this stimulation and immersion was so delicious!

And as if to repay that heart, the next stage continues.

Tung-.

But this time something was different.

‘It takes a long time… ?’

The preparation time was longer than before.

Even after the VCR was turned off, only drums rang on the black stage for a long time.

‘what?’

But everything returned to the stage at once.

with an exciting whistling sound.

Whiik!

Water was pouring out on the stage.

‘crazy!’

I don’t know how much money was poured into it, but the stream of water that you would see at a super-large water show collects on the floor and creates a water source.

And the light came through.

Whihwihwi-ik!

The lights turned on according to the stream of water collect on the floor of the stage together with the water, creating a fantastic scenery.

And at that moment, the performer appears.

The performer jumped from the water stream in front of the concert hall in the dark and landed in the water.

“… !”

It was Cha Yoo-jin.

Unlike the two-unit stage, Cha Yoo-jin was the only one who came up on stage alone during this performance.

[Yeah yeah yeaaaaah]

And without waiting, I started doing my solo dance right away.

Literally, like a fish in water, the water rises up to the calf, and a splendid solo intro was performed with light and spray.

The water and light draw a parabola, causing diffuse reflection and flashing. However, all those effects are absorbed as part of the movement of the solo performer.

Cha Yoo-jin’s characteristics instantly took over the stage.

Gamers were amazed without even realizing it.

“Wow.”

Are you human?

As soon as the intro performance was over, Cha Yu-jin took off her goggles and smiled at the audience.

Aaaaaaaa!!!

Despite the deafening shouts, Gamer did not frown.

Because the familiar prelude came out.

‘Oh this!’

Testa’s most recent hit song. It was “Promise,” which is still firmly holding onto the music charts.

It is currently the hottest song among Testa songs. Even gamers were used to it because they could listen to it once every two times when they went out.

So I made a pretty convincing guess.

‘Ah, then, let’s go to sing together like a festival?’

Unfortunately, not this time either.

Instead, with Jeonju, what was in the beginning returned to the concert hall.

lighting right away.

Woong~

Waved blue lights cover the concert hall. And this time, instead of dry ice, soap bubbles pour like air bubbles toward the audience.

“uh… ?”

The final stage to finish everything.

The venue turns into the sea again.

However, this time the boy did not sink.

[Umm]

Turning back, Cha Yu-jin shrugs and looks up at the ceiling, that is, the sea.

And right around it, the stage floor opens and six figures come up.

testa.

[Take your STAR]

They were going up to the surface.

“… !”

As soon as the first verse entered, Testa laughed and started kicking the water.

[The Day the Stars Fall]

The performance shown in the pouring rain unfolds as large and splendid as a concert, as originally intended.

In the relaxation and pleasure of countless practice sessions, the anxiety added by the heavy rain completely disappeared.

As the water flows down, like cool vocals in the grass where the water level is lowered to the anklebone, the choreography that looks good and is upbeat pours out.

[Run and Fly to the sky by kicking the waves

]

As the number of people increased, the movement of the water became more splendid.

“and.”

The intimacy of ‘as it is in the original song’ met force and was replaced by immersion.

A melody passes by in an instant.

If you wave the light stick while being immersed in the performance using the water spray to the fullest… [

Promise me to go with

Mood that shines like a star,

Make you fly]

We arrive at the bridge in the second half of the song.

The choreography of the members becomes static and the lights pointing towards the water are turned off. By the time you want it to get a little too dark like that.

Pod!

In an instant, the inside of the concert hall itself began to sparkle.

“omg.”

And gamers were taken aback when they saw their cheering sticks shining white with full power.

Not all the cheering rods in the concert hall, but countless small lights on the ceiling above the stage were shining and creating a cluster of stars. [

Today will shine

across the horizon to the tip of the island ]

It was beautiful.

The boy, who was stagnant and sunk in the consciousness of the past, comes back to the earth where the stars of reality shine with enlightenment.

And the members leave the stage where there is almost no water and start running into the stars.

[Umm Umm Umm~]

Ending.

After getting out of the water, the members came to the front of the protruding stage and performed the final highlight dance.

The lights were no longer blue, and the venue was like a sandy beach in midsummer, with bright golden light and pollen flying around.

A true climax and finale. A clean and enjoyable last story without anything bothering you.

[Thank you!]

That’s how Testa, as an idol, finished the story.

“… … .”

The gamer watched the whole scene with a somewhat dazed mind.

It was because of the cool feeling.

After a while, the Testa members came out one by one and greeted each other like a curtain call.

The music to be played is their first fan song ‘The Magic is You’.

[I’m in a good mood today,

it’s like something good will happen]

When their part started,

they jumped out onto the stage and went around the venue with head mics, doing fan service.

“Moondae Yaak!”

“Ahh here!”

It was a time for fans who would regret the distance, and the second fan song and picnic took quite a long time as everyone sang together.

However, instead of being bored, the gamers sat like other fans for a long time after the curtain call.

‘… … .’

And after everything was over, I belatedly opened my smartphone.

[PM 10:31]

The show started at 6:30 PM. 4 hours disappeared in an instant.

“crazy.”

she hit her head

The way back.

The two friends laughed inwardly as they looked at their gamer friend who seemed to be impressed.

“how is it? Did you pay for the ticket?”

It was an obvious question, but the gamer accepted.

“Oh, that’s fun… . Time goes by in an instant.”

This kind of cultural life was worth spending money on. It was to the point where a crush on idols grew in my heart.

In the end, she murmured like an exclamation.

“Hey really… He did well.”

“… !”

The two friends exchanged glances at the moment. Seeing that he is good at it, if it’s vocals or fan service, it’s likely Moondae Park!

“who?”

“Who do you like best??”

At the moment of tension, the gamer opened his mouth with a serious face.

“I am… Everything was good.”

“… ??”

“It is the best to perform as a group like that. very… This is it.”

Yes.

Recently, she ended the viewing ceremony with the all-fan mentality that it is more precious than wild ginseng.

And similar confessions were also coming up on the Internet, but the people who performed were delighted at a more primitive level.

* * *

11 o’clock at night.

We haven’t been able to leave work yet due to feedback problems and are working overtime at the practice room. But the atmosphere is fine.

the concert was good

“Great success~”

“Ah, the best, the best!!”

“fun!”

Everyone has a smile on their faces, as if they still have energy after performing the crazy set list.

‘It was worth the money.’

Originally, the pleasure of succeeding in a new challenge was extraordinary. This is even more so when it comes to large-scale events such as concerts.

I rated it neatly.

“Your idea was good.”

“… ! Ay~ What are you talking about! It’s me, I just added a spoon to the complete set list~ I also included a lot of ideas!”

My mouth is tearing up, but I pretend not to.

Anyway, W Live is going to be long like an after-party on the last day, so today you just have to congratulate yourself on your success and check it out.

But I have a few more things to say.

“Hmm, Eugene looks a bit dangerous here.”

“I’m cool!”

“Yes, it’s cool, but it’s a story about landing safely.”

I found a conversation partner by passing the guys giving and receiving feedback.

“Kim Raebin.”

“yep!”

Kim Rae-bin was talking with Sun Ah-hyun about the unit stage. After saying a few words with Seon Ah-hyun, I sat down in front of him.

And it went straight to the point.

“How was it?”

“yes?”

“How was it after performing on stage?”

“… … .”

Kim Rae-bin had a slightly nervous face, but answered without hesitation.

“I was very concerned about whether I could appropriately interpret the other person’s production results and express the intention of the production well enough not to be ashamed of as a professional, but… .”

After a long introduction, the answer comes out.

“… I think I did pretty well this time.”

yes.

“Of course, Ahyeon hyung, who performed with me, showed such outstanding ability that I am aware that I jumped on the bandwagon, but still… .”

Kim Rae-bin’s eyes shone.

“I could… !”

It was a solid answer. I smiled and asked again.

“Can you do it in the future?”

“yes!!”

good.

After hearing that firm answer, I called up the status window without hesitation.

And I confirmed what I was waiting for.

[!Status Abnormality: Dodori Table (Disabled)]

His status ailment was clearly returned to its inactive state.

‘okay.’

Of course, it hasn’t completely disappeared, so maybe someday the ‘my production is ruined’ state will recur.

But don’t worry. Now this guy will be able to get out of the slump on his own.

Because I’ve been out once.

and… The option that it would be okay if I quit producing must have been well entrenched in my head.

That was enough.

“Good job.”

“no… . I was so grateful! I will work harder in the future.”

Kim Rae-bin bowed his head. Seon Ah-hyun, who was next to me, clapped with a red face.

It was a good finish.

This is the end of worrying about the sound source for the next album.

‘Well then, there is only one left.’

Leaning against the wall of the practice room, I prepared the opportunity to talk about the last treatment I had been thinking about for days.

“I have a suggestion.”

“huh?”

On the way home from work just before midnight, I raised my hand in the car.

“That arrangement account.”

“Oh that.”

First of all, the official contact for the game theme song, which was put on hold because the concert was urgent.

I said boldly.

“If it’s something you just want to try, I think it would be okay to accept an offer.”

“… !”

“Uh how… ?”

Simply put, this is it.

“You can donate the proceeds.”

“… ??”

You have to give up money.

“When we sign a contract, we return the profits to the welfare foundation.”

After all, there is no one here who regrets the money.

It’s a shame to just change the account, and I want to avoid unnecessary attention.

So, just say OK once and use that account all the time.

“If you donate anonymously, there is no tax evasion problem, so there will be no problem if you are caught later. The name can be handled within the business.”

“aha… .”

The person in charge will not dare to go so far as to illegally track a novice business operator and dig up detailed personal information.

“okay! There is no disagreement about profitability because I am not greedy.”

Kim Rae-bin answered brightly.

The person himself doesn’t seem to know at all, but since the guy with the most stakes is doing this, he’s in a situation where he has no choice but to shut up even if there’s someone he wasted money on.

Well, it doesn’t matter since no one seems to have talked about money in the first place.

However, Bae Se-jin asked with a confused face.

“Can’t we just sign a free contract?”

Can not be done.

“that… If they get caught, they will say that they are dealing with intellectual property rights because the money has rotted away.”

“… … .”

“It seems that there will be stories about the negative impact on the industry beyond the attitude controversy.”

Originally, public opinion is a tough opponent for idols

. you have to consider everything

I passed by Bae Se-jin’s face, who seemed to feel both disillusioned and terrified at the same time, and asked.

“So, if you’re going to do it, I’m wondering how about handling anonymous donations like this… I wonder what you think.”

The cool positivity soon returned. I thought so.

“I like it~”

“Me too!”

Even Ryu Cheng-wu smiled and opened his mouth.

“Yeah, it looks fine.”

It was unanimous.

I rubbed the back of my neck.

With this, the composing camp account can continue to operate without any problems.

“yes. Then do that.”

Testa’s arrangement account with an infinitely high stake in Kim Rae-bin… .

“A Star of the Stars also creates a career!”

… Yes, ‘Song of the Stars’ will reply to T1 Plays.

“… … .”

FYI, I objected to that account name.

Why did I want to give it a connection with Testa… I just want to say that I gave in to the majority.

‘Because not all the plans I’ve made work.’

The funny thing is that this time, my plan didn’t go perfectly as expected.

A few days after signing an official contract with T1 Place, articles like this started appearing on the Internet as popular articles.

[Youtuber who flexes properly]

[The result of trying hard.jpg]

[What kind of person is doing a star song]

“… ?”

There was nothing to trace the cause.

just… The person in charge made a public comment on the arrangement video.

– Thank you for the formal contract! According to ‘Byeolbyeolgok”s will, the down payment will be donated in full to the Skysori Children’s Foundation

.

thanks to this it happened

– Full donation to the Child Welfare Foundation

– Is it true?

– God’s God song! God’s God song!

-Look at the X sign. This is Flex

… .

“Are you going to ignore it?”

“yes.”

We stopped all feedback after one complaint email to the person in charge.

With the awareness of the Bukkae so suddenly, the weather got colder and started running toward the announced date.

It was the end of the year soon.
