Debut or Die

Episode 461

-Crazy board game;;;

The news of Testa’s board game limited edition album sparked fans’ SNS timelines.

The reaction intensified when people even said that the board game appeared to have the same appearance as the one in the teaser after comparing the images. -I think it was

used as a real music video prop .

I don’t know how it feels. Will Testa’s world view come out?

-I know how to sell

it really

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

because of the limited number.

No matter how much the general edition is released in the future, there will definitely be a difference in composition from the limited edition.

-Only 1000?

Which group sells millions of albums?

-I don’t think of Pleumi, and I’m going to stick with the merchant

-How can

I buy this

?

started cursing

In fact, it was impossible to meet the production schedule to make tens of thousands of units because it was printed in a hurry to fit the schedule.

However, there was a feeling that this negative reaction was neglected to some extent on purpose.

It was to calm down the atmosphere of overly deifying the label in advance.

This is because it is burdensome for both the new company and the group.

And anyway, if the composition of the general edition was almost the same as the limited edition, the complaint would soon subside.

Besides, because the comeback, Testa itself, came first, fans couldn’t focus on swearing at the agency.

For example, something like this.

-Oh, since the album was a USB type,

Testa’s album to be released this time was not a CD, but a USB.

It is also standalone.

It ended with a simple composition of only an album USB, a box of recycled paper, and a photo card.

– Due to environmental issues, I think we will continue to produce with USB

. – To be honest, there is a lot of trash coming out due to the overheating of album sales

.

Buying an album in an era where online streaming has become a trend is because the meaning of owning the physical collection is stronger.

In addition, the small number of components felt somewhat shabby.

Photos and lyrics are probably included as data inside the USB, but the fact that you can’t hold it in your hand is somewhat cold.

-Um, 3 types of USB…

-I wish I could show you what the USB looks like

-I wish it

was a doll or

something Thanks to the enthusiasm for the concept itself of continuing the high-teen concept of the previous album, the voice was relatively quiet.

But there was. The strangely dejected atmosphere created by the voices of dissatisfaction.

‘under… .’

In the end, the fans who cared about it deliberately tried to find something better.

Part of that was to find special content that is not usually included in CD albums on Testa’s album reservation product page and deliberately spread it out here and there.

-There is an extended version of the MV in this album. It’s in the form of USB, so I think I tried it with a high volume, but I’m already looking forward to it. -There

is a warning about the QR code reader! I think there is something that reads by QR. I think I prepared a lot,

but that was the end.

More specific information about the album was not further released as the comeback date approaches.

‘What are you thinking??’

Thanks to that, even the first home runner of Mundae was biting his nails.

Although the concept photo was released once, it was a comfortable high-teen concept similar to the previous teaser.

It was okay and pretty, but it didn’t have any special features.

It felt too similar to the last album.

Compared to ‘Promise’, which was like a ‘Better me’ movie that brought a cinematic trailer for ‘Arrival’, which had a 30-minute teaser… … .

‘It’s only one teaser, and the composition is simple on a USB album… .’

The scary word ‘cost performance’ couldn’t help but pass through her head.

-I couldn’t imagine being treated like

this at a new company

.

Doesn’t it look similar to But now, in the midst of the worse

waters swirling around.

Just like that, the day of fate came as anxiety, anguish, excitement, and expectation intersect.

It was midnight on the day of Testa’s first comeback at the new company.

Finally, the MV… floated

“… under.”

[TeSTAR’s ‘Roll the Dice’ Official MV]

Homma took a deep breath.

The title is dice, but the thumbnail also had dice… … .

How far are you going?

‘Is it really a complete board game concept? I’m worried that I’m going to have a brain attack after coming this far… … … no!’

Homma shook off her useless thoughts and clicked on the MV with trembling hands.

OK… … .

“uh?”

What appeared on the screen was… It was a hardwood floor. It was the floor of the attic that appeared in the teaser just before.

However, Testa, who was sitting there at the time, was not there. It wasn’t them that was the focus.

Just a board game board.

Tokens and cards are scattered over it.

However, the impression was a bit different from when it first appeared in the teaser.

I thought it was an obvious composition of moving forward while eating the land after dividing the khan.

But seeing this… It’s more elaborate and feels like a blueprint for a real-life building… .

‘… prison? maze?’

That moment.

The camera was sucked into it.

[You have my dice]

A low voice echoed through the black sight.

And the screen came back.

-Doong… !

Corridors lined up in a row.

Built of gray stones with different contrast ratios, it looked like part of a huge underground dungeon.

A huge rusty nameplate on the floor was briefly captured on camera.

-Keep It Safe

and the camera moves forward.

thump thump.

Along with the sound of footsteps, I see iron gates lined up on both sides. It’s like someone’s vision.

‘Is it a jailer?’

Then the camera goes off again.

Whiik.

After penetrating through an iron door on the left, the camera immediately went to In-young sitting on the floor.

The person was wearing a white costume with a harness, a stage costume that reminded me of a straitjacket or prisoner’s uniform.

And as soon as he saw the figure with his head slightly lowered, Homma immediately recognized it.

I’m closing my eyes… Park Moon-dae with black hair.

‘Huh… !’

His bangs were a bit long, so his eyes were slightly covered.

The moment of close-up of that white face.

– Pipipipipipipipipipi… .

A small sound began to be heard from somewhere.

A noise that sounds like when a machine detects something or works.

Then Moondae Park raised his hand with his eyes closed.

and hit somewhere

puck.

With the screen of surveillance cameras exploding in the air.

The music explodes.

[My tape that touches your hand and

winds up again]

Cool mid-tones that are light enough to be light.

And the screen also jumped up, and eventually went up through the dark secret room and went to the upper floors somewhere.

And there, a ray of light from the iron cage on the ceiling lattice shined down.

The tempo rises. [

All senses slow

as soon as the heart beats ]

In the beam of light, someone sneaked down with a rope fastened to the end of the barbed wire cage.

It is Liu Qingyu, wearing a tight leather suit.

widely.

A slightly mischievous smile hung on his face as he landed.

The drum beat blends in and the bass sprints heavily with a slightly more rocking sound.

[Exhilarating contact

, looking for a definite answer

in your silent eyes ]

When Ryu Cheong-wu puts his hand to his ear, the cut changes to someone doing the same thing.

It was Kim Rae-bin wearing glasses.

[You have one more choice,

take it all (one more)

Even if you lose this tightly held hand]

Kim Rae-bin, who was sitting in front of the dark monitor room, looked like a hacker or an employee.

However, soon after, he looked down with a blank expression, as if he didn’t know at all, and then just took an awl out of his pocket and broke the monitor.

Right before the monitor turns off with a jiggle.

Between the twisting angles of view, Cha Yoo-jin, wearing a straitjacket, looked at the camera and smiled, revealing fangs.

Then the monitor turns off and silence.

[Let’s start the melee]

The pre-chorus exploded with a low-pitched melody.

[Find it, look at its face,

I don’t care what’s next]

The cuts of each testa running through gray hallways, secret rooms, mazes, monitoring rooms, and other unknown conceptual places are connected without a break.

[Chaser

, don’t stop your hands today]

It looks great, but the moment you want to repeat the incredible cut transition, someone’s hand blocks it.

It was a gloved hand.

[Find out everything

Don’t be scared what’s next]

The owner of the hand was Lee Se-jin.

While drinking coffee, Lee Se-jin in a navy blue uniform smiled.

Then he turned his head to look at the broken monitor, took the key, and hummed out of the monitor room. [Chaser

don’t finish the reversal

tomorrow either ]

And the chorus.

[Just roll the dice]

Dance break.

The costumes and backgrounds changed naturally, like a cross-edited video of the stages.

From a white prison uniform to a military uniform and then a leather suit.

“and.”

How many cuts did this take… No, I thought it would have been more tremendous than running around, but I’m sorry that I thought it was more thrilling than that, but it was to the point of beating.

Homma swallowed and continued to watch the video.

[Trust take my side]

After the chorus, in the second verse, the story and choreography are properly mixed, and the video returns to the original KPOP feeling.

A performance video full of symbols but intense.

However, thanks to the beginning of the story, I was able to understand it in detail.

‘Let’s see… Moon Dae and Cha Yujin are prisoners? Same thing. Rabin and Chungwoo are the thieves. And is the big Sejin the jailer?’

By the way, Bae Se-jin and Sun Ah-hyun appeared in the performance in various outfits, but it was around the time when I looked up and said that I was not sure of their distinctive roles.

[Yes, this final round]

It was when the melody of the bridge was playing.

The scene that suddenly changed to a fast tempo changes to a long take.

… widely.

What is reflected is the back of someone standing in front of a huge iron gate.

The camera soon turned halfway around to reveal its true identity.

It was Bae Se-jin.

‘Ah, it was a thief!’

He was dressed similar to Ryu Cheng-wu. It was when Homma nodded.

-… … .

Bae Se-jin calmly stared at the iron door, then reached for the locking pad next to it.

There was a strange mechanical device that looked like a key, and I wondered if there was a close-up of the leather gloved hand.

Whoops.

Suddenly, the hand changed several times, either to a hand wearing a cotton glove or to a scratched hand.

“… !”

But it soon returned to the gloved hand.

And the moment I connected the key to the lock pad, the code entry box appeared on the machine.

[_____]

‘Oh!’

Bae Se-jin seemed to smile faintly, but… .

-puck!

The screen disappeared with a hit sound.

“… ??”

[Just roll the dice

Trust take my side]

There was no next.

In an instant, another dazzling performance video followed.

Although possessed by it, Homma still had a question mark in her head… In the end, I succumbed to the performance.

‘I’m sure they’ll give you rice cakes at the end… !’

Yes. The hint was given right after the song ended. But not in the way she expected.

On the screen that turned black, something else appeared instead of Bae Se-jin’s whereabouts.

It was a close-up shot of a beautiful face.

“… ?”

that… It was Seon Ah-hyun, a blonde in an ultramarine blue uniform.

He looked straight into the camera and opened his mouth.

-… Choose your side.

A soft string instrument sound began to flow.

As the top and bottom of the screen slowly closed in black, Seon Ah-hyun slowly turned her head and started walking down the hallway.

It was the gray hallway that came out at the beginning.

A black baton swayed slightly from Seon Ah-hyun’s waist.

Looks good to subdue someone.

“… … .”

black screen.

Until only the sound of military boots clearly stands out in the soft string instruments.

– Tuk tok tok… .

And the letters come to mind.

[Roll the Dice]

~Please enter the code

The last thing that appears is a blinking black box.

It was the one that popped up when Bae Se-jin accesses the lock pad in the music video.

and… .

“… … under!”

Homma let out the breath she had been holding.

crazy!

‘I was worried for no reason!’

The quality was like a movie! It was a little different from the existing music videos, but this will definitely get a response.

‘There will be a foreign reaction… .’

It was already expected.

‘A bit of a world view… Although it was very grandiose.’

It was like a new worldview! It was a bit overpowered, so it felt like a drama fan music video.

‘Is the board game that world view? Does that make sense?’

It was when she was working hard on her hair.

Suddenly, personal messages flooded social media.

‘what?’

It was just when I clicked because I thought it was DuckTalk.

-The album product page popped up, and it was the key to the crazy sex video

“… ??”

-The key in the kids music video is an album USB!!

“… uh huh??”

She opened her mouth and screamed.

‘Ahhhh!!’

and the next day

‘hurry! hurry!’

She opened the delivered album like crazy.

So, I tried to access the folder after disconnecting the USB, which was a prop for the music video, with utmost care and haste to connect it to the computer.

because… .

‘You made it so meaningful!’

There must be something in the MV expansion! I had to see it!

‘Just click on the video!’

Can we see the extended version of the MV… … .

“… !!”

However, it was not the video player that greeted her.

[Do you want to allow the TeSTAR – Roll the Dice MV Extended Edition (Playable) app to change your device?]

App?

At that moment, she realized.

“… … .”

‘Playable.’

game.

The MV extended version is… It was a game!
