To be honest, I was quite nervous until I opened my smartphone to check the reaction of the 1st episode.
‘I thought I might beco too much of a laughingstock—’
However, surprisingly, viewers reacted more favorably to than mockingly.
Even when the chorus of ca out, public opinion completely turned around.
In a favorable nuance.
– It’s so fun.
– You’re cute ㅠㅠ You’re very focused.
– Just be honest, you co to the audition to do this ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Yeah, if you co out, you have to work hard. It’s good to see you like this.
– No, I an, he looks like a different person from the interview ㅋㅋㅋ
– So cute.
‘This is cute?’
It was true that I prepared the song selection strategically.
However, I thought it would be at the level of ‘I’ve worked hard, so I’ll pass,’ but it was an unexpected gain.
Isn’t it the rule of an audition program viewer to despise soone bad?
I was a little confused, but soon I understood the situation.
‘It’s because I sang well just before.’
First of all, since it’s a situation when the singer has to be good at singing to et their traditional expectations, even if the dance is only not at an embarrassing level, they would be able to leave it generously.
However, the character seems more emphasized by taking care of the laughter.
That character was—a bit embarrassing, though.
‘I chose a general answer on purpose, but it ca out like this.’
Basically, it was to not leave room for a clue to be held. (꼬투리를 잡히다 or a clue is held aning is for sothing to beco a pretext for soone to provoke a quarrel.)
In addition to that, in order to emphasize the main vocal position, I have responded smoothly to everything.
In the interview, I didn’t ntion any personal opinions and only said objective words that wouldn’t go against the social consensus.
‘But— I had no idea people would prefer a nuance like soulless.’
Anyway, even if it is the wrong way, it doesn’t matter as long as I reach Seoul. I tried to take KTX, but it ans I don’t mind taking the express bus. (T/n : 모로 가도 서울만 가면 된다 used when one wants to say that achieving a goal is more important than how it is done. So even if it is the wrong way, it doesn’t matter as long as you reach Seoul.)
‘I got through the first step well.’
It was clear that I had secured early recognition. This is not just a hunch but a real result.
This is because the status window popped up while I watched the broadcast.
[The beginning of fa (2)!]
10,000 people rembered your existence!
: Point 1
[Calling for fa!]
50,000 people rembered your existence!
: Draw Rare Characteristics ☜ Click!
With one broadcast, the number jumped to 50,000.
‘The sense of reality disappears.’
I decided to look at the rewards that appeared in the pop-up later and instead opened the search box and entered keywords.
[Relisting! Idol Inc. ratings]
The results ca right away.
[Average ratings: 3.7%, Highest ratings in one mont: 6.8%]
Oh my God.
‘…Isn’t this the first episode of the failed cable entertainnt program?’
I guess I succeeded in pulling the aggro properly. (T/n : aggro is a aningless behavior or talk to take others’ attention.)
Of course, objectively speaking, it wasn’t a crazy high rating.
Regardless of whether people liked or not, the fact that 100,000 of them rembered Park Moondae ans that I made quite an impression.
Now, let’s take a closer look at the ‘likes and dislikes’ section.
After checking the overall flow of public opinion in the first episode, I imdiately checked my evaluation video clip.
[Pure 100% twist of an ordinary participant! park Moondae]
I feel like my hands and feet have disappeared. (T/n: It’s an idiom people use when they find themselves in a very embarrassing situation.)
‘…Let’s get it out of my head quickly.’
Then I checked the best comnts first.
– Huh? POP☆CON is here? ㅋㅋ👍 7326/ 👎181)
– I fell asleep while watching, and then I woke up. Moondae-ya, Nuna will buy you every single one of them until you beco famous. (👍4522 / 👎294)
– Yep, the main vocalist this ti is Park Moondae (👍2061 / 👎372)
“Hmm.”
First of all—It was a good sign that the embarrassingly liked comnts were at the top. It was a bit strange— but thank you.
However, the critical factor was a fairly high rate of ‘Dislike’.
Compared with other contestants who have been favorably edited— for example, Cha Eugene, I think it’s roughly 1.5 tis bigger.
It ant that there were quite a few people who didn’t like ‘Park Moondae’ who appeared on the broadcast. So maybe it’s the thing that’s not social that’s the problem.
So, what is the most effective appeal I can make at this point?
The negative image that has already been created is unavoidable, but there are many idols who use this as a gimmick to make them laugh.
Just thinking about it right now— hmm, there’s probably more than one for every idol group.
So there’s only one thing I have to do in the next shoot.
‘I have to look friendly.’
I imdiately ca up with the next search word.
[Idol Inc. PR Video.]
The next shooting was the production of a PR video.
There are still three days left, so let’s find the most aningful examples before then.
* * *
The PR video shooting for 〈Idol Inc.〉 was done live.
However, they recorded the process of preparing the PR video like an entertainnt show. It was a small content that was used to kill ti at the ranking announcent.
“Everyone! Are you ready?”
“Yes!”
Participants answer with great enthusiasm when they hear the clear sound of the MC in charge.
‘…I feel like I see this every ti I shoot… Or is it a mistake?’
Anyway, the important thing was that the participants beca more desperate.
“I’m glad that everyone doing well! Okay, do you know what we are preparing for today?”
“PR video!”
“Introduce yourself!”
Because I’m sure everyone has seen the reaction to the first episode.
Everyone must have realized. No matter what they do in front of the cara, it’s like nothing happens if it doesn’t air.
‘So no matter what they do, they can’t help but be desperate for a PR video that’s being broadcast live.’
In fact, it was never a fair competition.
The live broadcast competition, which was held in a situation where the first episode already decided recognition of the participants, was as if the result had been decided halfway.
However, in the midst of that, there was always a person who turned it over to a PR video every season, so everyone seed to be desperately preparing for the video without saying anything.
It was a live broadcast of 77 amateurs, so of course, all kinds of controversies followed, but—it seed like no one cared about that.
The participants will think it’s fine as long as it’s not them, and the production team will like the rising buzz.
“You’ll be doing a live broadcast exclusively for yourself on Tnet’s Global WeTube Channel at 8pm tonight!”
“I’m really nervous.”
In terms of placent, Keun Sejin, who was standing nearby, was a bit quiet.
He didn’t look nervous at all—what a liar.
“Ah, wait a minute. I think I said sothing wrong!”
“?!?”
“The live broadcast is not just for you!’
As if the MC was enjoying the reaction, he encouraged the response with his arms. The panicked participants shouted.
“What do you think is your dream as a celebrity?”
“Dream—?”
“It’s an , everyone!”
“….!”
The MC spread his arms wide.
“You should each choose a collaboration item to advertise and promote your item with yourself!”
“Yes?!”
These bastards are determined to eat raw. (T/n: 날로 먹다 ans that soone gets sothing easily without working hard.)
Even though that collaboration item sounds plausible, I’d bet my left hand that it was T1’s product that Tnet was just promoting.
It doesn’t matter if you only get one or two to see if sothing goes viral or not.
It was capitalistic enough to be counted among the crazy tactics of .
‘Didn’t soone rush in at the top?’
The series, which I thought was ruined and ignored, suddenly got a response, so I put a spoon on it. (t/n: I think 숟가락을 얹다 (if soone only puts a spoon on the table) ans sothing like he is responsible for the most part of an achievent, so soone who deserves the credit for that achievent.)
Anyway, the MC’s words were plausible.
“This item may feel like a burden to promote, but please rember that it can also be used as a prop to show off your charm!”
“Ah~”
The participants seed to be convinced. It was a wise attitude because there was nothing to be done just because they couldn’t understand it.
“Then how do you get these props that you’ll have?”
“Running?”
“Rock, paper, scissors?”
“Karaoke?”
Examples of programs similar to last season have been shown here and there. The MC shook his head with a sad expression and shouted the correct answer.
“Right away… It’s a treasure hunt!”
“Heol?”
“The production crew hid treasure balls with ‘items’ throughout the dorm. You have the next 15 minutes! All you have to do is find the treasure ball!”
Keun Sejin nodded, and his face showed a little bit of admiration.
“I think this will be fun?”
“…Yeah.”
The arrangent that will be interesting to the viewer is right. And the Participants who do this are perfect for dogfights.
With 77 people going through a building, there must be sothing upsetting.
Of course, they used the contents of the ranking announcent ceremony to relieve tension. It didn’t seem like it would be overly serious.
However, there were plenty of ways to shed subtle nuances.
‘I can already see all kinds of speculation and rumors coming up on the Internet.’
“Ah! Like an audition program, the treasure ball also has a grade. Please keep that in mind and check the ball carefully!”
It must have been painted in gold, silver, and bronze color.
“All right, get ready—”
Everyone is ready to run.
“Start!”
“Whoa!!!”
With screams, 77 people rushed into the dormitory. I sneaked out and took a step back.
‘Let’s go through the back door.’
No matter how much I thought about it, it was likely that I wouldn’t be able to get any of the treasure if I went with them through the main door.
If I go back and go through the side door, I will have less competition with the other participants.
Then Keun Sejin and Gold 1 followed .
It sounded like a swindler was groaning.
“Thank you, Moondae-ya. The bus is comfortable.”
“Hyung-nim is smart.”
“….”
It doesn’t matter if there are two of them— but I’m pissed off about how it’s going.
Gold 2 and Seon Ahyun, who were standing a little further apart, seed to have been swept away by the crowd and entered the front door.
As expected, life is all about timing. What a pity.
* * *
“Oh, Moondae~ You found it right away.”
As soon as I entered through the back door, I imdiately found a ball on the threshold.
It was silver.
‘As expected.’
Keun Sejin also nodded, looking at the opaque silver ball.
“The grade, I think it’s divided by bronze, silver and gold, right?”
“Hey, let’s use Korean words that are fair and beautiful! Gold, silver and bronze! How nice is it!”
“Kk~ you’re a patriot.”
If they talk more, let’s just throw them away.
“…Why don’t we speed up the search? The others will be here soon.”
“Yes~”
“Since Moondae is realistic, Hyung feel safe.”
I moved my feet quickly. Surprisingly, the two followed without making any noise.
First, the storage room.
“It’s easy if we think about it the other way. Where can the production crew hide it— hmm, here?”
Keun Sejin smiled and took out a bronze colored ball from the pencil case in front of the cara.
“….!”
“Ah~ bronze. Is this real?”
“Ah, damn it. This dirty hand is not going anywhere.” (T/n: 똥손 ans bad at picking sothing or unlucky person.)
Surprisingly—it’s worth using.
These guys were quick. Thanks to them, I divided the areas without saying much and searched all the storage in an instant.
“Ah, I found another silver! Shall we move now?”
“I agree.”
“I agree.”
They’re also quick to judge the situation. I moved quickly to the next area without waiting.
“Where?”
“Let’s go to the restaurant first. There’s a cara.”
“Moondae has good eyes.”
“As expected, he’s the man who found the back door.”
“….”
It—would have been better if I hadn’t said that.
There was no ti to waste at the restaurant.
All three of them started searching around the area where the caras were located.
It was when I opened the spoon and chopsticks box.
“I found it.”
“Heol!”
“It’s gold.”
I got a gold ball.
“Why do all of us have a gold grade, but Moondae was the first one to find it?”
“It can’t be helped. Hyung-nim. I think it’s because Moondae has a golden hand.” (T/n : 금손 or golden hand ans good at picking sothing or lucky person.)
“That’s right. As expected, you can’t beat soone who’s born with it~”
“The other kids are coming.”
“Ah.”
They finally know how to shut up. All I have to do is give them sothing to do.
Anyway, when I heard rushing footsteps, I left the restaurant quickly.
“Go upstairs?”
“Yes.”
The sa search was repeated upstairs as it was. It was efficient this way.
“Hey~ It’s good that the three of us ca!”
“That’s right! Honestly, Moondae agrees with this, right?”
“Yeah.”
“Oh~”
I’ll be honest.
I’ve benefited from these two guys. It was efficient when three people searched together.
Overall, they had good eyesight and movent, so it was easy to search and move quickly. Their judgent was also good.
Not the strangely stubborn ones, but the distribution ended nicely.
“Then we— did we find 4 gold, 2 silver, and 4 bronze?”
Keun Sejin presented a palm-sized plastic ball.
Gold 1 said carefully.
“Yeah. Well— each of us has one of each color, and Moondae took us away, so let’s give it gold instead of silver. What do you think?”
“I like it~”
It’s good that it ended neatly, but I shouldn’t leave any room for evil editing.
When I first realized the power of editing, I felt very uncomfortable.
“Oh, then I won’t take the bronze one. Take two each.”
“Oh~ Thank you!”
“Okay!”
As we each took our own balls, an announcent ca out at the dormitory.
– There are 200 seconds left~
For reference, we were hiding in a storage room next to the back door of the road to avoid the crowds of participants.
It wouldn’t be ridiculous to be robbed here.
“Hyung, the kids are coming in!”
“Hey! Let’s run!”
We quickly exited the back door and headed for the eting point.
“Ah~ farming nice~.”
“After all, it’s our teamwork. It’s relentless.”
These brats have all relaxed, and they’re all talking again.
Participants who had already found one or two balls opened them on their own at the eting point.
So far, no one has tried to steal it by force.
‘They’ll notice that there are caras all over the place.’
They seed to be psychologically hesitant to steal the opponent’s ball openly.
“Wow, shall we open it too?”
“Okay~”
“Yeah.”
We started to open up the ball when we returned to our position.
Keun Sejin and Gold 1 had a lot of balls in their hands, so there were a lot of jealous eyes.
Still, two higher grades would be better. Even if they get a few vague things, it’s hard for them to choose just one.
I turned two gold balls open.
And I hardened.
“….”
Wait.
