The music videos each received different feedbacks. With the introduction of the three different units, the viewers each expected what kind of concepts each teams would go for — except for the Visual Unit teams.
It could be said that with Performance Unit, the teams would be well-versed on dancing. For the Vocal Unit, that was to be expected already. But what about the Visuals?
Would the participants there just act and show their beautiful faces?
With their curiosity piqued by the vagueness of the concept, many of the viewers also clicked the music videos of the Visual Unit even though the participants they supported wasn’t among these teams. There would be no harm in watching just once, right?
But contrary to their expectations, they couldn’t help but watch once again.
– Heck, what did I just watch?
– Why can’t I seem to get enough of this?
– Prince Minho (heart eyes)
– Mama Cupid Rayen and Baby Cupid Jiji is the best duo.
>> What are you saying?! He’s already Haru’s daddy!
>> Then, he adopted another child. Go, watch and see clearly.
The effect was surely because of the visual charms.
Not only did the Love Makers team did fan the waves though. The other team from the visual unit also gave the viewers the sa effect.
With their vampire costus and styles, the music video of that team exuded mostly of sexiness and elegance, in contrast with the Love Maker team. The two teams were completely polar opposites, making the viewers unable to compare which was better than the other.
– Do we really have to choose one only? I can’t choose one!
>> IFY. My bias isn’t here, but I still ca to watch this. Now, I can’t even pick which one I’ll stream along with my fave’s MV.
– I guess, I kinda get it why they were called the Visual Unit. My eyes can’t get enough of this.
– Well, my storage is becoming full of their snapshots.
Fortunately, the competition would only be among the two teams from the sa unit, or else, the other teams would have been left behind already.
Still, it wasn’t too long since the music video realease when another video made it all the way up into the UCube’s recomndation algorithm for the people tuning to the MVs to increase the view count.
While randomly selecting videos to play in between the MV, they found a newly uploaded suspiscious video. With the controversial title itself, the fanse couldn’t help but click on it.
[(Idol:Revive) Truth about the First Round Resurrect Team]
There was nothing but a dark clip and an almost inaudible audio recording playing from the background when the video started. Most fans just closed it to find other eyecandies, but so stayed to rant on the comnt section.
– What the hell is this? I can’t understand shit.
>> Heh. Turn on the captions. You’ll understand.
After seeing that reply comnt, the fans also turned on the captions and finally realized what the video was about. It was a behind the scene audio recording that wasn’t released on the official broadcast.
With no video, most of the fans didn’t imdiately recognize who were the people speaking.
"You want to die? Continue with what you’re just about to do," one almost muffled voice said, his tone threateningly deep.
Just then, a faint sniffing sound echoed from their speakers.
"You should have said so more nicely..."
– Gosh, what just happened? Who’s this?
– It said it was about Team Resurrect from the first round. I don’t rember the mbers aside from Haru and the red-haired guy.
>> You got it right. They’re the ones speaking here.
– I recognize Haru. He seems to be crying. What just happened?
– Isn’t the one who was just threatening Haru, Rayen?
>> What the hell are you saying? How could that be Rayen? They’re close friends!
>> How do you know they’re close friends?
– Is this Rayen’s real attitude? How can he say that to Yeo Haru?
– The audacity. Why don’t you die instead?
– No one’s sure if Rayen really did threaten Haru! Stop with all your speculations!
Minji was also among the fans that were furiously typing to defend Rayen.
’How can they believe such a modified audio?!’
After posting another comnt to defend her idol, Minji reported the dubious video as fake and maliscious. However, it was too late. Many people had already watched and listened to it — most of them concluding the sa thing.
People of the internet — they would gobble up whatever they were fed. They wouldn’t hesitate to point fingers on a single person as long as others were doing it. That’s how the internet usually worked.
Monts later, the video had also reached Idol:Revive’s production crew.
At one particular room, Plotter and the Director watched the very sa video with grave expression on their faces.
"Who did this?"
Unexpectedly, it wasn’t the Director who was fuming in anger right now, but Plotter. These two planned to not ever release this matter to the public.
After all, even though it was Binh who did sothing wrong, Binh was also among the participants who gathered a particularly large attention from the public.
As the heads responsible of the show, Binh’s sponsors would probably storm down their lair after they learned that their chosen Seed’s future had been sabotaged when a negative image of him was leaked to the public.
They already gave the Seed their lifespan, so even though Binh was wrong, they couldn’t allow sothing like that to happen. That would make their sacrifices worthless.
At first, Plotter never cared. It was Binh’s fault. But Director ingrained it in his mind — no evil editing should be done to any participants, which was kind of a bumr for Plotter.
It was hard to balance the satisfaction among the sponsors and the public audience. Plotter might be an Overseer, but he’s still just one person.
However, it was still leaked. And the one truly at fault in this incident wasn’t even ntioned at all. It was like soone was playing with them from the shadows.
First, the sabotage with the private broadcast. And now, this.
Just what the hell is happening? Was there soone doing sothing under the darkness?
’The old man librarian?’ Plotter thought.
But Plotter imdiately erased that conjecture out of his head. That Old Man Librarian wasn’t the type to use these kinds of covert thods. At most, he would think that what they were doing were children’s play.
Besides, after the private segnt incident, nothing serious even happened. The tangle in fate wasn’t that large, so it didn’t cause a major disaster.
’The Old Man probably noticed it, but he didn’t even co to us.’
So, who did this?
For once, the Director didn’t reprimand Plotter for his attitude.
Instead, she said, "I’ll investigate."
