Volume 1: Chapter 3

 

[Bulletin Board] MSM is going to do an idol debut program.

Writer Firefly Shipper

 

It’s not yet officially out, but my dad works at the broadcasting station and heard it ᄋᄋ he told me that it’s been confirmed, but feel free to believe or not, I expect comments calling me a lying f*ck*ng b*tch haha. The filming was confirmed, the participants were all decided, all the selected kids were good-looking and he wished for it to go well. You can just think of it like the other survival programs that you’ve watched. If they get a lot of votes from the audience and still remain until the end, they will be sponsored by an agency and sign a formal contract.

 

+) Don’t ask me for authentication because it’s troublesome.

ᄂ a lying f*ck*ng b*tch~~~

ᄂ I’ve already expected this (trembling)

ᄂ If uncle really is in that field, there should be something– I don’t believe it, prove it.

ᄂᄏᄏᄏ They said it’s troublesome, believe if you want and don’t if you don’t want to

ᄂ I can’t show proof that I don’t have ᅲ

ᄂ Why would MSM put out an idol debut program ᄏᄏᄏᄀᄏᄏᄀᄏᄀᄏᄏ why would they do something useless like putting another variety show ᄏᄏᄀᄏᄏᄀ

ᄂ??? If they are going to be sponsored by an agency, does that mean they don’t have an agency??? Are they going to gather participants from the general public??????

ᄂThere’s a lot of question mark ᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏ why are you so curious about this jokes

ᄂ It’s not written in there but it seems like they’ll be taking ordinary people ᄋᄋ

ᄂ Wow, It’s my first time seeing them go with ordinary people

ᄂ ?????? They’re not trainees???

(T/N: Ordinary people here means people who have no agency and are not an idol trainee.)

ᄂ When did they recruit??? Did I just not see it??

ᄂ Writer ) They said they did not recruit, they filled them by themselves

ᄂ The writer said it’s troublesome but it seems like you have a lot of time? Answering all the questions one by one.

ᄂ It must be fun making up things in your head ᄒᄉᄒ huh

ᄂ Please tell me if it’s male or female

ᄂ Writer ) It’s male. Male idols

ᄂ Awesome, this is crazy

ᄂ Why are you all interested in this kind of postᄏᄏᄏᄏᄀᄏᄀᄏᄏᄏ

ᄂThat’s so fast ᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏ Speed approve

ᄂThis is the topic of all communities right now

ᄂ I heard that Seongwunie will be on the show, is it real??? There’s also the broadcaster from TacoMyu

ᄂ Where did you read such a ridiculous article ᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏ why would he go there, he has an agency

ᄂHyung-nim, have you been released?

ᄂIt’s been a long time since Seongwon came out of his agency^^!

ᄂHey, whether this is true or not, there is still no official article.

ᄂI think it would be better to erase 00 right away

ᄂ If you post something like this, it’s better to delete it right away, since MSM does sue

I randomly shove the lunch box that I bought in the convenience store in front of my house. I chose bulgogi so it’s easy to eat, but the sweetness is just perfect to soothe my tired mind.

(T/N: Bulgogi: generally refers to thinly sliced beef marinated in a sauce that is a mix of soy sauce, sugar or honey, sesame oil, garlic, onion, and often pureed Asian pear.)

“Ah, sausage.”

The sleepiness that has been washed away has taken control of my chopstick, in the end, I still dropped the sausage. After practicing all night, I barely fell asleep at 3 o’clock. I didn’t practice that hard nor did I create a new choreography, but I’m tired. When I was in highschool, I was called an energizer but when I tried to dance again after a long time, I felt pain coming from here and there.

In fact, there’s not much of an issue except for some parts that I’m not satisfied with. When the song started, my leg didn’t tremble and there’s no inability to move my feet. Maybe the slump healed naturally, so even though I’m dancing after a long time, it was okay.

While putting a different sausage in my mouth, I skillfully looked for my uncle in my phone’s address book with my other hand. Less than 10 seconds after pressing the call button, my uncle, who was busy, answered the call.

-Oh Hahyun-ah, I was about to call you. Did you practice?

“There’s a one week handicap.”

-What are you eating while talking? Chew everything first.

My uncle pointed out my smudgy pronunciation, so I hurriedly swallowed the sausage.

“I just did it for one week.”

-It’s today, will you be okay?

“It’s not like I couldn’t dance. It’s just that the feeling is not coming back then.”

I’ve been staying inside my house all the time, and typing on my laptop for over half a year. Whenever I think of wanting to start again, I can’t bring myself to do so. It was still not very satisfactory, but since today is the filming, I comforted and brainwashed myself. It’s okay, it’s not important and it doesn’t matter if I mess it up.

“That’s right, uncle, where’s the place?”

-I told you yesterday. Did you forget it? You’re strangely forgetting things like this.

“I forgot to write it down. So, where is it?”

–Yeouido FC Center. There’s a big concert hall right next to it, so you’ll find it right away. I’m going to be busy now and won’t be able to answer the phone. So come and see me, thank you.

As soon as my uncle hung up the phone, I pushed the rest of the lunch box inside my mouth. It wasn’t 8am yet so I still had plenty of time.

I always wear a t-shirt whenever I go out, but I couldn’t bring myself to do that today and paid a lot of attention. I looked at my reflection in the mirror, wearing a shirt that I bought for a high price. There’s nobody else here, but I got embarrassed for some reason, so I laughed and went outside.

I grabbed a taxi at the side of the road, told them where I was going and immediately leaned back against the chair. It’s only been two weeks since the pre-meeting, and it’s already the first filming day. Looking at the fast-moving road, I remembered the short pre-meeting day.

I think there was a desk in a small space area where a camera was rolling quietly.

“Looking at it, you have a lot of dance genres that you can do. Are you on the performance side? Do you also sing?”

“I haven’t sung that much, I don’t……”

“Then, can you try singing now? It’s for a short camera test.”

I was told to write a simple profile and submit it. I even carelessly wrote about my weight that I’m not too sure about, then the camera test came after.

It’s an idol debut program, so I naturally have to sing. I like listening but I don’t really like singing, so it was a big problem. After pretending to loosen my throat, I uttered a few words, but my voice was stiff like reading a book.

“I’ve listened to it well.”

The writer, who was tapping his ballpen without a change in expression, said,  “Let’s look at the dance this time”  and asked for a dance. At that time, I was able to lightly start dancing without hesitation.

The writer, who was watching my movement, smiled brightly and suggested it.

“If you know how to dance idol choreo, would you like to try it?”

I remember dancing to an idol hit song medley for a long time, so I thumped my head in the window. Suddenly, fatigue flooded all over my body. Because of the tension, my heart beat as loud as the sound of a roadside car, and it was not hot, but my face heated up. I wrapped both cheeks with my hands, but my hands were also warm, so there was no point. Eventually, I got out of the taxi without being able to soothe my red face.

“Aren’t you too late? What will we do if the stocks run out?”

“That’s why I said we should’ve come sooner.”

As soon as I got off, a loud noise penetrated my ears. A line of people standing hundreds of meters straight, as far ahead to the bus stop.

Seeing that they all had slogans in their hands, there seemed to be a concert here today. The slogan in the hand of a fan standing right in front of me happened to catch my eye.

[0225 We’ve Come This Far]

“Oh…..”

February 25 is Noble’s debut date, and the ‘We’ve Come This Far’ is the lyrics of the fan song they’ve always sung at the end of the concert. I peeked at the magnificent concert hall right in front of me and started walking in the opposite direction of the FC Center. A line for giveaways can be seen here and there, and there were also many people sitting on the floor with mats doing business.

After going around for a long time, I noticed a particularly long line. I think it’s also a giveaway line…… But when I went to the front of the line out of curiosity, it was the giveaway line of a fansite master. I sighed as I watched people who took fans* and slogans together and left with excited faces.

(T/N: The fan here is the literal fan. The thing used to feel the air(??))

‘What am I doing here right now?’

I belatedly came to my senses and turned around to go in the other direction again, but someone suddenly walked up and stood at the end of the line.

The man looked nearly 180cm tall and walked upright with his long legs, he was also wearing a hat and a mask. A shopping bag on one hand and a cell phone on the other. There weren’t only one or two people coming to the concert dressed like him, but I felt like he was still a student, which is why he caught my eyes. Is he a male fan?

“I found Sunlight’s line. I need to go now because I’m busy. It’s already 9 o’clock.”

(T/N: Probably the fansite’s name.)

Ah, he’s a proxy. I wasn’t trying to eavesdrop, but the distance was so close that I could hear them talk. I wanted to come back to my senses, so I turned my feet in the opposite direction.

 

It was already 9:10 when I finally arrived at the FC center. I was anxious that everyone might already be there, after finishing the identification at the entrance, I entered the building which looked a lot more dignified than I thought. I immediately stood in front of the elevator to go up to the 5th floor, where the waiting room that my uncle told me was.

“Aren’t you the person I took the profile picture with?”

As I was thinking of harvesting the apple first while waiting for the elevator to go down, someone touched my arm gently and talked to me. When I turned my head to the right, to see  where the sound came from, A main character of an animation with a gorgeous blond hair came into sight.

“Ah yes. That…….”

“Ah, My name is Kim Seongwon, do you maybe know me? I was in the ‘Hot Stage’ before. I made it to the semi-finals.”

After looking at each other for about 30 seconds, it finally occurred to me. Seonwon’s face emerged from  my memories, and I nodded a couple of times.

The show that I couldn’t remember was ‘Hot Stage’. There were a lot of people who were good at dancing, so I watched a few episodes of that program, but I completely forgot about it.

“Yes.”

“I wanted to talk to you in the studio last time, but you left as soon as it ended. Have you ever been a trainee in any company? You’re so handsome.”

“No.”

“Ah, so this is your first program. You must be very nervous.”

Seongwon’s eyes widened and he nodded his head as if sympathizing, then he began to give advice like a pro.

“The atmosphere at the first shoot is really stiff. When it’s break time, the mood starts to warm up, but it’s worth living for.”

Frankly, it was just noisy when one talks non stop even after the elevator had arrived. Still, I opened my ears because I thought they were helpful stories. When I showed a listening attitude, Seonwon, who raised his voice without realizing it, suddenly whispered.

“But you have to look good in front of the PDs. Editing is really important. When I was in Hot Stage, there was a noona there who said that she didn’t like the editing. The PD cut her performance in half, then she got eliminated the next week.”

Seongwon, who was whispering about the importance of editing, hurriedly shut up when the elevator opened on the third floor and people came in. It was completely like my story. Be edited out, then get eliminated.

As soon as we reached the 5th floor, I quickly exited the elevator. Seongwon, who was behind the people from the 3rd and 4th floor, also broke through the crowd and came out slightly distracted.


“The waiting room…… ah, it must be here.”

Seongwon, who was walking  through the wide corridor, opened the door as he had found the waiting room. As soon as he entered, he greeted everyone cheerfully and looked for the people he had met during the last profile shoot.

After seeing it, I awkwardly stepped in the waiting room. It’s not a very spacious waiting room.

More than twenty men were sitting together, so it looked full. It seems like fifteen people haven’t arrived yet, but the waiting room already looks like it is about to burst . I walked into the narrow waiting room, but I couldn’t say hello in a cheerful voice like Seongwon, so I quietly went to the corner and sat down.

T/N:

Giveaway: Usually outside a kpop idol’s concert, fans would give or share a bunch of merch be it slogan, a fan, or even food.

Fansite: The word used for the fansite in the raw is HoMa which is shortcut for Homepage Master. It’s a site built by a fan dedicated to a member of the group or the whole group. They’re usually popular because they have the resources to take high quality photos of the members. I will continue to use fasite as it’s a lot more familiar for international fans.
