52. Self-introduction video released
However, contrary to Neoul's concerns, his image, which had been hit hard by the evaluation of being 'socially inept' in the bus scene, was noticeably recovering thanks to the
Neoul's
- Ha, so cuteㅋㅋㅋ
- I accidentally turned off the screen, but I was surprised because I was laughing like the Jokerㅠㅠㅠㅠ
- Gal Neoul is so cute
- Why is he so cute when he works hardㅜ
- Gal Neoul suddenly joined, so I thought he was just having fun, but he was serious.. Oh... Sorry for the misunderstanding
- ㅋㅋㅋㅋHala burst out laughing
- Woo Yongdam is almost cryingㅋㅋㅋ It's been a long time since I've seen him laugh like that
- What's with Gal Neoulㅋㅋㅋ Was he a gag characterㅋㅋㅋ
Neoul's self-composed song
- It's a self-composed song. What's with the melody? It's so good?
- Wow, I just realized that there's no accompaniment
└Heol Me too
└└22 Wow, I can definitely hear the accompaniment, but what is it? I saw the comments and listened to it again, but it wasn't there
└I heard it about five times before I noticed it. His voice is like a musical instrument
- What is this guy, why does my mind change so quickly with every video that pops up.. I was cursing him for being shameless until a minute ago, but after seeing the octopus dance, I thought he was a comedian, and now my mouth is wide open and it's seeping into me::
└I'm cursing tooㅋㅋㅋ I can't figure it outㅋㅋㅋㅋ
└Jumping around like a zombie on the beach really looks like a crazy person... He looks like a genius from the 4th dimensionㅋㅋㅋ
└I've never seen a character like this on a survival show, so I just laughㅋㅋㅋ He looks like an alien ㅋㅋ ㅋ
As the rating evaluation video gained attention and became popular, naturally, short videos aimed at cursing Neoul also appeared on the main pages of various video platforms from time to time.
However, the reactions were much more harmful than the blatant criticism that poured out in the live chat of the broadcast.
- Idol Travel Contestant Gal Neoul's Personality
(Clip Video)
└Neoul is just being honest. If you refute, my words are a hundred times right.
└└That's right. I thought he was fresh and not pretentious, but everyone rushed in and bit him as if they had been waiting ㅠㅠ
└└└People's words are too harsh to ordinary peopleㅠㅠ
└└└└ He's not ordinary from the moment he appeared on the show
└└└└└He was ordinary until debut..
- That's a script. You can tell just by looking at him that the PD told him to do it. If you're going to swear, swear at the PD
- Neoul is only 20 years oldㅠㅠ You should be careful with what you say..
└It's not even a secretㅋㅋㅋ When you're 20, you know everything
└└Even elementary and middle school students are really smart these days. Even my nephews and nieces know that it's rude to say something like that.
└└└? Wasn't they just trying to be a roundabout way of saying that you should be careful with what you say since he's 20?ㅋㅋㅋ
- After watching it, I think he's just a genius. Originally, geniuses are incomprehensible to the eyes of the average person, so they seem to have a bit of social incompetence..
└Generalization ㄴㄴ
└└No matter how socially incompetent you are, it's not like you can just say they smell something bad at first sight
└└└Could it really be that the smell was strong ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
└└└└What about Kim Ji-rok's imageㅋㅋㅋ People will probably remember him as a stinky kidㅋㅋ
└└└└└If there was a smell on the bus, I would really get carsick and throw upㅠㅠㅠㅠ Even though I said it a bit out of context, I understand why Neoul did that..
- Bad breath or the smell of cigarettes x Neoul says that his soul smells bad. What does that mean? Are you talking about the smell you can really sense with your sense of smell? It's like there's something fishy about Kim Ji-rok and Gye Tae-seok.
└Brain official
[A portmanteau of ' brain (腦) ' and ' official (official position)', it is a derogatory term for an individual without credibility who makes a plausible argument. It can also be interpreted as 'thoughts that are official only in one's own brain ']
As the comments listed in order of popularity on public video platforms began to gradually turn more favorable toward Neoul, private anonymous communities were flooded with posts criticizing Neoul and even the comments protecting Neoul.
-What happened to GNL [*Gal Neoul]
Why are you acting out like that
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ That's what I wanted to say..
-He's so d*mn handsome that his fans will naturally protect himㅋ Life must be easy ㅋ I'm jealous ㅋㅋ
-He's being hypocritical and his character is ruined ㅋㅋㅋ
- Poor Baek Yuri.. If Gal ssi hadn't intervened, he could have been the center. F*ck
└That's not itㅋ
-Is Gal Neoul handsome?
I don't know.. Woo Cheong or Yeo Dobin are much better. Isn't Gal Neoul a bit burdensome? He's too tall and his arms are thick, so...
-That's because you just like slender people
-I really hate long-haired male idols
-I admit he's like the best half of them, but.. people say he is much better than any other celebrity so I am annoyed
-Yeah, his personality is going downhillㅋㅋㅋㅋ
- I support Gye Tae-seok because of GNL
-I hate survival shows, but GNL's foul language makes me mad, so I'm going to watch it without failㅋㅋㅋ
Gye Tae-seok's decadent beauty is awesome, and his skills are decent, but damn...ㅋ
Because of GNL the rating got nerfed. Thanks to that, I became a fan of Gye Tae-seok. Thank you f*ck
I decided to cheer for Gye Tae-seok too
└22
└└333Me too
-I'm into Kim Ji-rok... Ji-rok oppa is a gangster who dances well and raps well, but I'm mad because he is labeled as a kid who smells because of that long hair ㅠㅠㅠ he didn't smoke when he was a student, but even a grown man can smoke a little ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
└Rather, I like itㅋㅋㅋ Sexy
└└Thinking about the bronchial tubes, it would be better to cut them off, but it's really bad to be labeled as someone who smells like cigarettes when you're not harming anyone... I really hate Woo Cheong too. I think he intentionally said thatㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
└└└What are you talking about? Why don't you give damage? You're hurting others. In the traffic light and in the Bus stop are really... There are kids, but smoking? I really want to kill those b*stards who smoke while walking on the street.
└└└└Did Kim Ji-rok smoke on the street or on the bus? F*ck f*ck. He's an idol trainee, so he must have smoked quietly and secretly.
└└└└└Yeah, 'you' oppa threw a cigarette butt on the floor.
└└└└└└This b*stard seems to be a fan of GNL?
The Rekka Muteb channel quickly spread the word and made videos like [Gal Neoul, who has been the talked since the first broadcast], [Idol Travel participant with a personality controversy], [Shut up because it smells, viewers are angry], etc.
[*Cyber Rekka in a broad sense: A person who makes public other people's misfortunes, accidents, mistakes, flaws, and errors on the Internet and turns them into issues. Whether it is beneficial to them or not.]
Then, netizens who saw that would curse again in the comments, and another Rekka would spread that comment. It was a total mess.
On SNS, there were even people who reversed the name of Neoul and changed it to 'Nalong' or 'Blong' to prevent searches.
[*너울 = Neoul →나롱 = Nalong
너울 = Neoul →ㅂ롱 = blong]
The average viewership rating for the first episode was 1.5%.
It was a bit higher than the first episode of survival programs on other cable networks, but since it was still the first day of airing, most viewers watched the show with a light heart.
They were looking around to see if there were any good contestants, curious about what happened in the trailer, because they were fans of the judges, etc.
Except for child actor Lee Gal-chae and Ha On-ha, who took the center of Signal Song, it was a time when there were very few contestants who had formed core fans. Therefore, the two people were mostly mentioned in communities and SNS.
However, as the short video quickly spread through SNS and YouTube, the topic of 'Neoul' suddenly became an issue and heated up the market.
With mixed reactions, both positive and negative, the name 'Gal Neoul' gradually spread to people who had not yet seen
- (Photo of Gal Neoul at the production presentation)
Who is this? Is this a survival show?
- Idol Travel, Gal Neoul
- You can watch it anytime on Fluing.
Famous contestants, popular judges, a curious trailer, a well-made performance music video, and even the aggro of ordinary contestant Gal Neoul.
It was a result that you can expect to see an increase in the number of new subscribers to Fluing in the future.
The production team thought this was the right time and promoted it by releasing a self-introduction video filmed in various places in Jeju Island on YouTube.
[
Not long after the video was uploaded.
The number of comments and views on Neoul's self-introduction video exploded at some point. The viewers who saw Neoul in Ha Onha's video were drawn to Neoul's video.
Ha Onha's video, which became known as the Signal Song Center, was also rapidly increasing in views. The number of views doubled as viewers who saw Neoul's video first were drawn in.
The synergy phenomenon that Baek Yuri and Baek Gi-yeom were aiming for also occurred in Ha On-ha and Neoul's video, and their videos ranked 1st and 2nd among self-introduced videos.
- Haon-halㅋㅋㅋ I'm a flower-like Ha Onha, and a handsome 20-year-old ㅋㅋ Is it right to say handsome Ha Onha and a flower-like 20-year-old?
- I thought On-ha would be fearless, but surprisingly! ㄱㅇㅇ [*→700 → 귀여워 (cute)]
- 1:13 Gal Neoul seriously said "I'm a handsome 20-year-old" and then he is suspicious, it's so funnyㅋㅋㅋ
- Huh? The two are close... … … ?
└That's right.. Why on earth?;;
└They became close quickly because they're the same age
- Ha On-ha sees that on the bus and still with Gal Neoul I hate you guys so much
└Similar to each other
└└No, Ha On-ha is kind so he takes care of him. Gal Neoul is so socially awkward that you can tell he goes around alone
└└└You said he takes care of him? Anyone can see that Ha On-ha is a coward and chases after strong guys;
- Oh ㅋㅋ Gal Neoul really hit the jackpot ㅋㅋㅋ worrying about ghosts and high-fiving them ㅋㅋ what are you doing ㅋㅋㅋ
└I guess he lost his fearlessness and got beaten up by Gye Tae-seok and Kim Ji-rok
└└Did he lose it recently? Wasn't it something he didn't have since he was born?
- 3:07 Onha, have you lost your mind???
- Oh my gosh! The makeup is so real ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅜ I was more surprised TT
- It seems like the ghost is afraid of Neoul..! When he startled him, he didn't seem startled at all and just looked at him brightly, so the ghost flinched.
- Gal Neoul's speech pattern how long will he continue like that? What the heck... Is he doing that on purpose to make people laugh...?
└It seems like a concept
└└His father is a village school teacher (in the traditional Korean society)
└└└?? Did he grow up in Cheonghak-dong?
[*Cheonghakdong Village, located at the southern foot of Samsanbong Peak on Jirisan Mountain, maintains the traditional style of daily Korean life.]
- Well, what happened to Unni?ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ she got kickedㅠㅠ
└Is Gal Neoul's head a stone? Only the ghost got hurtㅋㅋㅋ
-7:48 It's so scary when they chase ㄷㄷ Why isn't Gal Neoul scaredㄷㄷㄷ
- 6:22 Here, Neoul is talking to the ghost kindly, but Ha Onha's expression of being completely devastated makes me laughㅋㅋㅋ
- Gal Neoul is really too muchㅋㅋ 'There was no ghost in there, isn't the ghost here?'ㅋㅋㅋ
└ㅋㅋㅋHa On-ha is a coward, so it seems fun to tease him
└└Are the two really close? Seeing them joking around so naturally..
└9:19 Am I the only one scared here? ㄷㄷ Isn't that really a ghost?
└└I got goosebumps too;;ㅠㅠㅠ
- Gal Neoul is just a regular person, but isn't it like he's a total pro idol for him to naturally cheer while looking at the camera?
└9:50 Look here, look twice
└It's guilty to laughㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
- My eyesight suddenly seems to have gotten better..
- Ah, it was funㅋㅋㅋ I should sleep next to my mom ㅎ
└I hope the garbage algorithm doesn't show up the personality, don't leave a comment and just skip it
└└Is that something that you can call garbage..?
The already noisy situation became even more heated after the article came out the next morning.
['Idol Travel' 3 contestants, arrested after neighbors report while enjoying a hallucinogenic party at home]
***
"Hey! Gal Neoul! Gal Neoul Gal Neoul Gal Neoul Gal Neoul!"
Neoul, who had fallen asleep late after watching the broadcast last night, opened his eyes with a start because of a person who barged into his room noisily in the morning.
The one who ran in while calling his name quickly and roughly was Ha On-ha.
He thrust his smartphone in front of the face of the newly opened eyes. While the eyes were dazzled and were blank for a moment, Ha On-ha shouted without giving him time to read.
"You were right! The dolphin that harass pufferfish!"
