Chapter 213

was inspired by the style of an outdoor theater with open circular staircases that might be found in American parks.

In a word, it means that the small crab is open 360 degrees, so the audience is right in front of you in all directions.

'It must be a fresh experience.'

While the residents who were invited as spectators came one by one and went through checkpoints, I sat in the waiting room with a camera on and received an envelope.

It was the American sensibility that the glitter was loud.

Along with the English explanation of the artificial intelligence MC, an interpreter came out through the in-ear.

[In this envelope are their signature songs chosen by the contestants!]

[Our KPOP mentor plans to learn all three of these songs in an hour.]

[Let's see how it goes?]

Nothing to see.

The production team already told me in advance which songs would be candidates for it.

'Of course, I can't narrow it down to these three songs.'

They gave me a dozen or so songs and promised that they would come out of this. Because it's a pop song, it might be a song you don't know at all.

And it's probably because of the contestants' running or fighting that they selected these three songs.

Well, on the show, the contestant said, 'It's not this fucking song I wanted!' I can already see you shouting the same thing.

[Are you nervous?]

[A little bit.]

After giving the obvious answer to the obvious question, I opened the envelope.

"hmm."

Well, it was exactly as expected.

'I don't even need an hour.'

Let's get rid of airplane travel.

* * *

The set where people are buzzing.

Holding wine or cosmetic bags (all of which were sponsored by T1) in one hand, the residents crossed their arms and waited for the stage without much expectation.

It wasn't a famous show, and I didn't know anything about it other than making it on Netplus.

[They say they're singing]

[I'd rather do a magic show!]

The father and daughter shrugged and started talking.

And behind the stage, the camera was also running, filming the contestants listening to the murmurs of these audience members.

In this 'Intro Stage', a total of 8 people chose 'singing' as their key to becoming a celebrity.

And the audience was given a button.

[When the audience presses the button, the light instantly flashes in its place!]

[They will press the button if they feel 'good.']

[And... warning! They think everyone who comes out is a contestant and they don't know the existence of our secret K-Pop mentor!]

[Then, our 'K-Pop' campers, let's go on stage!

] gave a reflexive cheer.

[Wow!]

The participants also reflexively waved their hands or jumped around. It was not known what kind of arrogance or immaturity would be edited out on the air.

And in the corner was an Asian young man wearing a large hood.

However, unlike the other noisy participants, there was little movement, so it was barely noticeable.

Of course, it is Park Moon-dae.

[Now, the first song... oh! It's 'Drive It' by Phil Garcia! Shall we run!?]

It was a popular song a few years ago that skillfully mixed R&B and pop and was good to listen to. It was also a regular song on audition programs for men in this country.

[Oh~]

The audience responded at a moderately polite level to the usual selection of songs.

However, when the next rule was explained, the admiration and sincerity began to mix.

[Contestants on stage will sing whenever they are randomly selected.]

[Feel free to press the button if you like! The longer a lot of lights are lit, the longer you'll be able to hear that participant's song!]

[If there aren't enough lights... Um, next!]

Laughter poured out from the audience at the sly words of the machine's voice.

[Hahaha!]

If the reaction is good, I can sing more songs, and if the reaction is bad, it's over.

It was a fun rule because it was easy to catch the eye and stimulating enough to be cruel!

[Now then, from step 1... Start!]

Music rang out among the participants who took a deep breath or pretended not to be nervous.

And participant 1 took up the microphone with blinking eyes.

A trembling voice created a sound that was quite plausible.

-I drive without hesitation~ I have a big engine and shiny headlights~

[Oh... .]

Those who used to press the button in moderation stopped pressing the button as soon as the participant stuttered.

'Considering the number of participants... In the end, he'll give me one more time anyway.'

Looking at the timing of the turn, it seemed that it would be his turn to go around the participants once again.

[Sorry, next!]

Because Park Moon-dae did so well in front, the evaluation of the audience became harsh, and most of the contestants who were suppressed were knocked out with one bar.

And as Park Moon-dae planned, he was nominated again for the pre-chorus just before the final chorus.

[Ohhhh!]

Amid the anticipation and preemptive cheers of the already biased audience, Moondae Park held onto the song from the first verse and did not let go.

-Run, run,

hit the horn and crush the light

Tonight,

Park Moon-dae's song occupancy time was 1 minute and 3 seconds.

The shockingly overwhelming first 'Intro Stage', which didn't even play like that, was over.

[The winner is... No. 7!]

[Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!]

'I paid for the meal.'

Instead of bowing his head, Park Moon-dae waved his hand to match the emotions of the audience and smiled.

I could already hear the sound of the production crew drooling beyond the camera next to the stage.

'If I do well, it will be used as a trailer.'

And that prediction was right.

* * *

[K-pop? I don't listen to that kind of thing.]

[It's called music... no don't get me wrong I don't think boy bands in this country are music either.]

[My younger brother is crazy, but honestly, he's crazy.]

"Oh, a trailer?"

"that's right!"

Cha Yoo-jin, who was playing Netplus on her smartphone in the car, excitedly shook the screen and showed it to the members.

Immediately, the members also focused their attention on the short preview video.

After the cuts of the interviews with the contestants who were obviously saying things like, "I'm a nerd, I'm not interested in subculture K-pop," the actual filming went by briefly.

[This summer.]

[To reality show contestants thirsty for fame]

[K-pop baptism pours in!]

"Wow, look at the subtitles."

"You did a good job translating."

[Aaaaaaaa!!]

[What kind of X is this... .]

Screaming contestants and laughing K-pop idols.

Then, the profile of me singing and the image of the participant next to me with an open mouth flashed by.

"Were there two more vocal teams besides you?"

"okay."

I guess I made good use of it because the participants reacted the most on the first stage.

"I heard everyone won."

"Ah, of course not. Everyone has a position, so you couldn't have lost?"

Seeing him smiling and doing that, it seems that he also won the dance stage by an overwhelming majority.

[Do you know K-pop?]

[Do you like it?]

[Would you like to try it?]

[K-NOW]

Right after the title came up, 'episode 1 coming soon' popped up along with the date.

Usually, programs that are released on Netplus are bundled in four or five episodes and released at once, but it seems that they have reached an agreement with the studio to release one episode at a time.

"Be sure to press receive notification when Cha Yu-jin is released so you can watch it immediately without forgetting... ."

"I know!"

"If you knew, what would you not have done!"

'Anyway, the airing isn't far off.'

I was quite excited about how the first episode would react, probably because the filming ended successfully.

And by the time you see it, there are new events.

Coincidentally, Seon Ah-hyun is also shouting if she realized it after seeing the date.

"Oh this day... It's our moving date... !"

"I know?"

"After discussing a large TV, I think it will be worth ordering a new one!"

"really good!"

it's moving

We have finally moved into a new home.
