Debut or Die

Chapter 530

If you can’t debut, you’ll die. Episode 530

Backstage after the American Music Awards started.

“Whoa.”

The frontman of a certain band took a deep breath.

As a member of a local band, who is scheduled to take part in a group performance that will soon take place, it was almost like the first time he performed on such a large and major broadcast.

However, he had firm faith in his own abilities.

‘I need to calm down. This can be happen.’

He repeated himself, trying to keep his eyes as relaxed as possible.

Then, he recognized the boy who was waiting right next to him.

‘oh.’

The black-haired Asian boy with a nonchalant expression remained in his memory for his outstanding performance in rehearsal.

His calm and powerful voice seemed to indicate what kind of singer the boy was.

So he tapped him on the shoulder to shake off the tension and started talking.

“Hey, how are you feeling?”

“good.”

The other person who answered briefly was a calm tone.

However, I could infer the tension he felt from the lack of a smile on his face and his unsocial attitude.

‘Of course.’

The frontman was considerate of the opponent.

“You should know that there is absolutely nothing to be ashamed of being nervous before a big stage like this.”

“Of course it is.”

The opponent nodded his head politely. and added

“You don’t look nervous.”

“of course.”

The frontman felt better.

“This is a matter of experience. I’ve been in front of quite a few crowds… .”

“I see.”

The boy nodded calmly and the frontman felt that the chatter was really relaxing him.

As if giving advice, he shared some of the stages he had experienced, and the boy seemed to be listening with a slight nod of his head throughout.

‘He’s a nice guy.’

And to show that he is a non-prejudiced person, this frontman was happy to ask:

“so… Where in the country do you tend to work from? I’m from the South.”

“Callie, if you have to ask.”

“Oh, is that your hometown?”

“The members of my band are from San Diego.”

To be honest, I was surprised.

‘Doesn’t the people of that state know the word serious?’

It was a thought full of prejudice against stereotypes, but the suspicion itself was quite pointed.

‘Anyway, that guy wasn’t born on the Pacific coast.’

Anyway, it was rude to talk about the place of origin, so the frontman ended the conversation there.

“Hey, how about taking a picture?”

“okay.”

The boy responded surprisingly coolly and took a few selfies like that.

“You must have had a lot of experience taking pictures with your fans, right?”

“Not a lot.”

“haha!”

The guy seemed pretty sincere.

‘He’s a guy with guts.’

The frontman concluded so.

In fact, the person he called a boy just thought, ‘There’s no reason to talk to this bastard for a long time’, but good was good.

However, no matter what the boy thought, the frontman continued a pleasant conversation alone and eventually came to this topic.

“By the way, do you like tacos? I mean, I’m half Latino.”

It was a polite way to indirectly ask the other person’s lineage.

The opponent reacted favorably.

“I am a korean.”

Frontman conditioned reflexively reminded me of a Netplus drama, but fortunately, musical topics suitable for the current situation came to mind one after another.

“Oh, have you heard of KPOP?”

The boy did not answer for a moment.

“Quite a lot.”

And I laughed for the first time

Misunderstood that frontman Park Moon-dae was a boy because of his styling, he answered and moved along with the staff.

It was time to prepare for the stage.

* * *

Ceremony Hall.

The host’s clear voice filled the colorful venue.

[…] So we will remember forever!]

It was an introduction to the dedication stage.

This stage was for an American rock band that had a strong taste in the 70’s.

The band’s vocalist, who had been rumored until the end of this year, passed away and suddenly donated all his property to society, becoming a hot topic.

At the same time, at this ceremony, a dedication stage for the deceased was planned.

Among the band’s hit songs, an extremely emotional and slow tempo song was selected.

And, based on the interview of the deceased during his lifetime, vocalists of various rising bands, especially rookies with a strong local color, continued to sing parts.

Maximize storytelling!

The purpose of the stage was to maximize emotion and sympathy, so these rookies were really talented except for a few who came in through connections.

And everyone thought so.

‘This is the opportunity I’ve been waiting for.’

It is a rare opportunity that has almost never returned at American awards ceremonies, where famous singers of the present day perform tributes.

This song, which has been heard by people all over the world, is not just a cover stage, but is sung on a large-scale broadcast as an official event!

The vocals were all burning with passion and tenacity.

‘I have to prove my talent.’

All the vocalists who thought so went on stage with strong hearts.

Woo-woo-!

Wow!

On the stage where the lift equipment rattled and arrived, more than enough stimulation overflowed.

Applause, light, MR, and sound effects shake the visual and auditory senses.

However, the song started flowing right away, without any consideration to give them time to adapt to this big stage.

ridge.

A hot accompaniment that starts with a drum beat.

The vocalist, who was standing on the stage equipment, skillfully cut off the first batter even in that situation.

[Not everyone wants

the memory of love]

The cool voice sprints by making use of the offbeat so much that it’s hard to believe that it’s the first time on a big stage.

When I put the ad-lib in the interlude, the audience burst into cheers.

‘Oh damn it.’

The frontman, who was talking to Moondae Park, almost chewed his teeth while waiting.

Because his turn was right next.

‘now!’

He grabbed the microphone and sang while checking that the camera in front of him was lit up.

[Wake up at dawn and look at the damp bed.

It looks like raindrops and

salty like sea water]

A pleasant voice fills the verse.

[It’s like a wave crashing in.

I can barely stand it]

‘I did it!’

The frontman, who made use of the high notes with his own vibe, finished his part in joy.

And the camera lights went off and the next person appeared on the billboard.

[I spent the past days crying,

thinking of the good old days.

I don’t want to do that anymore]

Another cheer erupted at the rough rocker’s voice.

All the following parts are full of personality and good vocals shined with their own colors.

In addition, since the parts were arranged in consideration of harmony, it was cool to listen to them continuously.

‘How good have I been?’

I couldn’t guess.

The frontman, who quickly came to the conclusion that it would be better to expect the stage itself to become famous, decided to just enjoy the moment.

After his tension eased, he also recognized In-young, who was standing by on the side stage next to him.

It was the boy I was talking to earlier.

The frontman remembered that his part was in the second half.

‘Did it come out around 2 minutes and 40 seconds?’

However, I remembered that it was not the climax part, but the ambiguous refrain that preceded it.

‘Cheer up, friend!’

Having already completed his part well, he induced the audience to respond and enjoyed this time, and when the time came, he slightly turned his gaze to check on the boy.

And finally, the singing voice is heard.

[Not everyone wants

the memory of love]

Strong and clear voice.

And the splendid connection sound and the pleasant singing method that seems to drip and purr.

sharp treble.

‘uh?’

It was a completely different singing method from the calm voice during rehearsal.

However, the surprising reason is simply that the boy sings in a completely different way from rehearsal.

It wasn’t just the technique and technique.

[The world says

that love is the best.

I’m not saying it’s wrong, but

oh

I don’t want to remember]

on stage.

He came up from the side stage and was singing the same song as the original singer.

* * *

I’ll be honest.

In the first place, I did not consider anything that harmoniously melted into this dedication stage and increased the overall quality.

‘Isn’t that the job of the guy who planned the stage?’

From arrangement to part distribution, there was no authority given to me, so what did you expect?

And I’m sorry, but I didn’t have the heart to keep the planning intention of ‘a stage where the voices of various local bands full of personality’ were harmonized.

There’s no way I’d leave such an effective method behind.

[Oh!]

I checked the image of myself singing on the screen and also checked the number of comments below it.

[12721 comments]

Just one hour.

It means that there are so many people whose mouths exploded in a short time, less than an hour after the video was uploaded.

‘Of course, it’s even worse when you consider that the unofficial video was floating around on social media as soon as the stage ended.’

Overall, there was no aggro prey like this.

Recreate the singer of the original song by myself on the dedication stage.

-(2:46) Seriously, what the fuck is this guy doing?

‘I know.’

I laughed and tapped my phone.

But let me be clear.

‘Simply copying it doesn’t give me the effect I want.’

As time passed, the singing method also changed according to the trend.

Have you ever listened to a song you liked in the past about 10 years ago after a very long time?

Then, at least once in a while, everyone would be surprised if the singer sang this song so awkwardly or because it was unfamiliar.

It’s because the vocals I’ve already heard in the past have been refined in a modern way in my head.

‘I can’t make you feel that gap just by looking at my stage.’

It’s rather less impactful.

I don’t want to be criticized for imitating you, but I want to hear from you that the singer of the original song immediately came to mind the moment I heard your song.

‘The image people have of the original singer’s stage.’

impressions of the past.

It was my goal to make it come to mind.

Therefore, it was important to find a modern, appropriately adjusted ‘how to sing’ in people’s heads.

‘It took a very long time.’

-Nope.

– Noooope.

– Sing a little harder! More!

Let’s take this opportunity to thank the American teacher Yujin Cha.

It was very helpful that he responded honestly from the perspective of a local. When I was rejected about 10 times, I did get hit.

‘Thanks to that, I raised the level of perfection as much as I could.’

It was a satisfactory result as my singing grade is a grade.

-Once again, Park Moon-dae is good at singing and has good brains

-Wow, I never imagined that he would come out here and tear it up haha

-Can we not sing like this in the future? It’s more clear to call it this way, but

the domestic reaction was also good from the public. Because I also received the Gukppong buff.

Of course, the risk exploded as expected.

-????Park Moon-dae, why are you

out

there?

-Am I the only one who doesn’t like it? I didn’t know that during the comeback period, I would ignore all the colors of my group and come out in that way. ? I’m also a bit like…

I’m like a person who wants to stand out alone.

It’s coming out

?Yes, it’s going to come out Pretending to know something without knowing anything, pretending to be a fan, stop meddling with

this kind of aggro-type reaction.

But it wasn’t to the point where I couldn’t handle it. Well, there are not one or two bastards who pull aggro with Testa.

‘It was eaten cheaply.’

It was something that would be buried if the comeback activities progressed anyway.

In addition, since the direct cam will be released soon by the company, it was able to soothe the fans’ disappointment.

As for why it was called this way, there were enough legitimate reasons for fans to think about it right away without stress.

‘Since it’s a dedication stage, I heard that I sang it while thinking of the original singer.’

Isn’t this a simple cover stage?

Of course, I can’t stop the likes and dislikes in the US.

First of all, point out about my qualifications for application.

-KPOP is not a real band. He was selected improperly.

-It’s fake.

?Oh please, his band writes their own songs! The “factory-made” K-pop bands you think are ignorant stereotypes!

Next is a point about my stage itself.

that there is no individuality.

-What is his personality and what makes him KPOP?

? By the way, his song was fucking perfect! I don’t want that “K-pop look”. He was the only vocalist who could properly respect the original song!

-It’s like Rosie came back to life… He’s such a great singer ?This is just

an imitation ?He

‘s just polite and humble- A legend recreated like a legend Idiot

What are my thoughts on all this chaos?

‘Rather welcome.’

It’s not that my skills or personality are being disparaged, and I’m just grateful that the stage itself has raised the number of views.

I wish that this discussion of pros and cons would continue for a little longer.

‘good.’

I rubbed my chin.

And I didn’t mean to, but… .

‘I’m sure other vocalists on this stage will benefit from this.’

It’s because it’s certain that it became a hot topic more than when it went as planned thanks to the aggro.

Besides, there is a comparison group in Nara, so there were quite a few videos comparing how different people tasted from the original song.

-I think that Asian boy’s part has become the standard for this stage. Interesting.

-Rosie was a great vocalist, but I like the 3rd rocker better (smiley emoji)

Not bad.

I shrugged my shoulders, remembering the guy who grabbed me before the stage and made a lot of noise.

‘I posted a review on Inheart while making all kinds of fuss.’

K-pop stars blah blah blah.

It would be nice if you could post some more pictures. Increase the amount of buzz a little more.

Thinking so, I began to look more closely at the reaction on the Internet in the US.

Slowly, the expected reactions were also seen one by one.

-Wait a minute, are you that crazy alien band from the movie < Cosmic Gunner >?

at las.

‘You’re here.’

Testa’s meme, which has previously become a hot topic on the American Internet in fragments.

? Oh my God, that’s right

? This is really funny lol

? In a sense, it’s a really local group (smiley emoticon)

That’s how they started to connect.

Of course, if I left it here, there was a high probability that it would fizzle out again instead of absorbing attention with the testa.

Just like the past few times I was content to get some influx into the music video.

But this time I won’t be satisfied with that.

I smiled and changed the smartphone page.

‘Let’s encourage it a little more.’

slightly more fun.

I slowly began to write down drafts in English.

And at this point, comeback publicity entertainment programs filmed in Korea began to pour in.
