The reason large entertainment companies like Ryan are able to dominate the industry is not because they are feared.
Because it is something that makes money.
This is because there is a belief that if you give up temporary gains, Ryan Entertainment will eventually bring you more money.
When these beliefs come together, they become a cartel, and over time, they become vested interests.
Once you become a cartel with vested interests, you gain one ability.
as soon as… … Of course.
Entertainment reporters did not mention Sedalbaekil's name in their article about the end of Coming Up Next.
This is not the result of a media company calculating profits and losses by tapping a calculator or flipping an abacus.
This is because no one raises the question, 'Why should we do Lion Enter's favor?'
Because it is taken for granted.
Of course, in order to maintain this naturalness, Ryan Entertainment provides entertainment, spends advertising costs, and listens to requests from media outlets.
Sometimes even at the expense of losses.
This is because the profits the cartel brings are always greater than the cost of maintaining the cartel.
That's why this issue of 3 Months and 100 Days was dangerous.
As an issue grows, people always have more thoughts.
Why did Sedalbaekil become independent?
Why did Drop Out appear in 3 Months and 10 Days?
Why are they friends?
At the end of this 'why', one question may follow.
Why can't we write articles?
This was the point where Choi Dae-ho felt a sense of crisis.
The moment something becomes natural, the power of the cartel weakens.
'What on earth is Double M thinking?'
There is no way he would have taken Sedalbaekil's side out of a sense of justice or anything like that.
If the same thing happened, Double M would have acted the same way.
In other words, Double M has something to gain from the relationship between Drop Out and Hansion.
But, I have no idea.
Could it be that Double M signed a contract with Sedalbaekil?
That doesn't make sense.
If there had been an intention to do so, Double M would have contacted Ryan Enter long ago.
With an appropriate negotiation plan.
So, did Han Si-on give a good song?
This also makes no sense.
There's no way I could do something that would be in conflict with a big name like Ryan Entertainment in one song.
I tried my best, but I couldn't understand the motivation behind Double M's actions.
I briefly thought about contacting Double M, but quickly gave up.
Double M is not a small or medium-sized local agency, and it is impossible to undo what has already been decided.
Moreover, the very act of making contact first is taking a step back.
In this case, it is better to quietly observe the situation and then act.
When two days passed, NOP's single was released.
-Ah, so when is Zarkon coming out? Damn it's dragging.
-Still nothing on the official channel for three months.
-Aren't you just trying to change the mood by taking a picture?
-Does Drop Out look like a fanboy? Please respond to something like that.
-Everyone. NOP single was released.
-Oh, it really came out. How do you like the song?
-Good? Maybe it would be worth mixing it with Selfish?
-Hey, it came up.
-NOP is better as a snack.
-A Dropout is much better.
-No, it came up!
-what.
-Three months and one hundred days! An hour later, a public alarm went up?
-omg.
Jacon of 3 Months and 10 Days was also revealed.
* * *
The self-produced content
A format that broadcasts pre-recorded videos in real time.
Naturally, the audience's outcry reached the sky.
-Why should I be watching this?
-When will Dropout come out?
-My life while watching the boring idol Jacon is legendary.
What people were curious about was what was the relationship between Sedalbaekil and Drop Out.
I don't care whether they move into the dorm or are excited to see the dorm they have moved into.
If it's an uploaded video, you can scroll back, but it's not possible for real-time streaming, which causes dissatisfaction.
-I can't see it. If you come back a few hours later, the wreckers will have sorted it out.
-I'm just going to play the game with the sound on.
-Let me know when it drops out.
-How can I tell you?
-The chat window is going to be crazy.
-Wow, 9,000 people are already watching. There will soon be over 10,000 people, right?
Quite a few people had this reaction, but not everyone.
-Wow, the accommodation is nice. Where is their agency?
-LOL Han Si-on confidently tells us to play the game without him. He said he would use a single room haha.
-Isn't that a bit cheesy?
-I think there is a reason? The members coolly agreed.
-Do you snore a lot??
-;; Hey, our stone doesn't know how to snore or anything.
-??? What are they bringing out?
-Hwatu haha.
-No haha what kind of crazy idol assigns a room from Jakon to Seotda????
-Hwatu. A fight with flowers. Maybe it would suit our flowers a bit?
-What are you saying, you idiot?
-Way From Flower: ???
-Ah, why is there only a little bit of the game scene? It's fun.
-Isn't this a Tazza vocal imitation contest rather than a game?
-It's a college MT feeling.
-Do they seem a bit friendly? It looks good.
-Why does Han Si-on work so hard at imitating his vocal cords when he doesn't even play games?
-He's even good at it hahaha.
Coming Up Next is a program that recorded enormous viewership ratings, and most of the music tracks from Sedalbaekil and Hansion ranked #1 on the charts.
What this means is that there are many people who have good memories of Sedalbaekil and Hansion.
This was especially true for those who were not greatly influenced by entertainment articles.
What is presented as the 'public reaction' on the Internet is not necessarily the actual public reaction.
As a result, surprisingly, there were many people who were watching Jakon in Three Months and a Hundred Days without thinking much about it.
It was a good way to connect noise with noise marketing rather than ending it with noise.
The idol community reacted here.
-Hey, what is this? The accommodations look damn expensive, and the way Jacon is promoted... seems a bit strange, doesn't it?
-I think they have a company.
-Is it really Double M? So is there a dropout?
-is it?? Will Sedalbaekil debut on Double M??
-But if that's the case, shouldn't Double M's PR team have moved a long time ago when Hansion was criticized?
-The contract may have been signed after that. The contract is announced through this content.
-The above statement is very accurate given the circumstances... It is titled as Independence Diary.
Around the time this story began to flow from the idol-related community, Han Si-on on the screen called the members to the living room.
He then brought up a story about his own song.
[I almost finished drafting the beat and vocal lines... … . There are no lyrics. I think we should all write lyrics together.]
[How should I use it?]
[Like with Seoul Town Punk, I hope everyone writes down as much as they want to say.]
[What is the topic?]
[Resume.]
[resume?]
[We also need to find work in the music industry. It's a kind of job search.]
[Job recruitment… … . okay. I figured it out.]
[Ion, no way, I'm handsome. That's not what you're trying to write, right?]
[Jaesung-ah. What are you talking about.]
[No, right?]
[I should say he's handsome. You must not speak informally.]
[…] … .]
Soon, the contents of the lyrics the members were writing began to pass very quickly.
Although the beat was flowing throughout the screen, it was difficult to guess the entire song because it was broken up into pieces.
All I could tell was that it was a song with a bright atmosphere.
-No, looking at it this way, it looks like there is no company. There could be at least one trainer or producer.
-Then who provided that accommodation?
-Fuck, I came here to see what you did with Drop Out.
-me too. But strangely enough, I keep seeing it.
Viewers naturally thought that Sedalbaekil's self-composed song would not be released quickly.
Even if there is a scene of making a song in Jacon, it is rare for the entire song to be played.
Most of the time, they show it little by little and then burst into laughter on a music broadcast stage or release it in an official music video.
However, on the screen, the song was already completed.
[How do you choreograph?]
[I don't know. Can't I dance freestyle in moderation?]
[Oh, that doesn't make sense and the core movements need to be aligned.]
[Oh, Choi Jae-seong. Is it the responsibility of the main dancer?]
[Oh right. I was the main dancer. So, shall we just make a few moves?]
Under Choi Jae-seong's leadership, the movements began to be created, and viewers were able to hear the proper beat for the first time.
-Is the beat okay?
-Oh, I like this kind of thing. It feels like Mac de Marco.
-No, am I the only one confused about the stance? It seems like they're making it for fun, but it also seems like they need to show it to others.
-ㅇㅇㅇI thought this too.
But viewers' doubts quickly ended.
The screen where I was practicing dancing faded out to black.
-Resume (Live Version)
As the title came to mind, I began to hear the intro of the beat.
-????
-It's all so complicated???
-What? Is a new song released?
The screen brightens again and focuses on the bed.
On a bed with sunlight streaming through the window, someone is lying with a blanket all over their head.
At that moment, a hand came out from behind the screen and pulled the blanket, and Koo Tae-hwan appeared.
Koo Tae-hwan, who was lying on the bed curled up on his side, started singing.
Woo - hello
all night long, good
Did you have a dream?
warm feeling
Koo Tae-hwan's song pouring over the warm melody was great.
It was as comfortable as the sunlight breaking through the curtains, but its presence was clear.
-Wow, the introduction master hahaha
-Isn't this the best output that Hansion has produced?
-ㅇㅇㅇㅇ I almost got eliminated in the B team selection match, but Han Si-on grabbed me by the collar.
-It's so chewy.
Koo Tae-hwan got out of bed while singing and put on his slippers.
However, he was wearing bathroom slippers, not indoor slippers.
The screen showing a close-up of bathroom slippers moved up, and Lee Ion appeared.
Standing in front of the bathroom mirror, looking like he just finished taking a shower.
-Wow, damn it.
-ㄹㅇ If I looked like Lee Ion, I would decorate my entire house with mirrors.
-Someone is wearing a t-shirt after showering. You have to be rude.
Lee Ion, holding a razor, sings.
Woo - hello
a little, quickly
start the day
refreshing morning
-What is it, it's a real live lol
-It's ringing because it's in the bathroom.
The moment Lee Ion finished singing and put the razor to his chin, the screen turned again and caught Choi Jae-seong sitting on the sofa.
Choi Jae-seong was reading a paper newspaper with his legs crossed.
curious-
everything
What did I-
can you do it
A ding sound is heard from outside the screen.
The camera whipped around as if searching for the source of the sound and soon caught Onsaemiro standing in front of dozens of toasters.
Bread in the toaster bounces with a ding-ding-ding sound.
Onsaemi put them beautifully on a plate and sang a song.
things that need to be done
I won't turn away -
It seemed like no effort was put in at all, but the high notes jumped out.
When Onsaemiro, holding a plate full of bread, headed to the living room, the members were gathered around the table.
But Han Si-on was an exception.
Si-ion Han was tapping on the electronic keyboard next to the dining table.
The moment Onsaemiro put down the plate with bread, Han Si-on sang.
We- here
While earnest
What you want-
The refrain is repeated once again.
This time, the members except Han Si-on sing in harmony.
Lee Ionman taps the table with both hands as if playing drums.
We- here
While earnest
What you want-
A calm yet warm melody that creates a dreamy atmosphere.
A minimalist composition with simple chord progressions and repeated beats.
It was bedroom pop.
