Damn Idol Episode 90

However, Koo Tae-hwan, who did not know this fact, could not help but be embarrassed.

"The indie performance failed."

"What's failing? Everyone is doing well. "It's still very disappointing, though."

"Is it topical?"

"Oh, that?"

In fact, Si-ion Han was lost in other thoughts until Tae-hwan Koo spoke to him.

So it was a bit late to grasp the essence of the conversation.

"Did you think we were fighting with Lion Enter when we performed a few shows on the indie scene?"

"no?"

"Not at all. "Didn't you tell me the timing of the fight in the first place?"

Han Si-on clearly said this.

"We will start activities in three weeks."

"Three weeks?"

"Because the 10th episode of Coming Up Next will air at that time."

Episode 8 aired today, so there are two weeks left.

"So what we're doing now is purely for singing skills?"

"for now? how is it? "Do you think you've increased a bit?"

The Sedalbaekil crew nodded to Hansion's question.

Although the period was not very long, the number of performances was extremely large.

As a result, the situations varied.

There were small theater performances that received tremendous support, and there were also performances that were met with cold and hostile gaze.

There were even times when drunk customers started a fight or the DJ messed with the EQ and the MR came out strangely.

It's amazing that I experienced all of this in just one week.

I can't help but improve my skills.

"So, instead of thinking about useless things, write a note about the wrong answers about yesterday's performance. "You haven't done it yet, have you?"

As Si-On Han said, there was a performance yesterday, which was Thursday.

Although most performances are concentrated on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, this does not mean that there are no weekday performances.

Weekdays are advantageous because rental fees are low and competition is low.

So I went to a performance yesterday, and it was a different performance than before.

Because it was a 100% pure hip-hop performance with no vocals.

What Sedalbaekil learned there was a sense of rhythm.

Just because I'm a hip hop fan doesn't mean I hate the song.

But they only like songs that make them nod their heads.

Whether it's a rock beat or an R&B beat, you have to be able to follow the rhythm naturally to get a positive response.

There is a word in jazz called swing.

Swing is the core of jazz, but it is difficult to define in words.

Groove, feeling, vibe… … .

No matter what words you use to explain it, it is ambiguous.

In terms of pansori, it's 'Han', and in terms of rock, it's 'spirit'.

However, it is easy to tell whether the player is swinging or not.

Because it shows whether the audience can enjoy the rhythm or not.

In a similar sense, the members of Sedalbaekil yesterday were able to feel the power of rhythm.

The audience, who had been applauding tirelessly under the streetlights, suddenly changed when a rhythmic song came on.

In that sense, it was Koo Tae-hwan who hit the jackpot.

Koo Tae-hwan, whose innate sense of rhythm is gradually developing, received a greater response than Han Si-on yesterday.

However, Han Si-on suddenly rapped as if he couldn't stand it and brought the mood to the scene.

Thanks to this, the members of Sedalbaekil were surprised to hear Han Si-on's rap.

I heard rap while singing NOP's , and it seemed like I was confident in rap as well.

'I didn't know it was that bad.'

I don't know if it was because of the friendship buff, but I could almost believe that he was an active professional rapper.

At that time, Jaeseong Choi raised his hand.

"Trainer Hansion."

"why."

"The muscle pain is so bad."

"You'll have to wait for the muscle pain later, so enjoy it now."

"Oh, that's ridiculous."

"Really. "If I don't feel muscle pain, there will come a day when I'll feel sad and wonder if I exercised sloppily."

"… … "If it gets to that level, won't it become a mess?"

Han Si-on snorted at Choi Jae-seong's question.

"If it's so easy to build muscle, why are there bodybuilders?"

Choi Jae-seong hesitated for a moment at Han Si-on's cynicism, but that was not what he wanted to say.

"I have a question."

"say."

"I think Taehwan suddenly started rapping yesterday when he got louder cheers, is that right?"

"… … ."

Han Si-on's expression changes slightly.

It was barely noticeable, but who were they?

This is a team that has been going through hardships and ups and downs together for over three months already.

The members' eyes sparkled as they saw Han Si-on, who felt like hitting for the first time in a long time.

It's really fun to make fun of Han Si-on's rare temperament.

"No way."

"really?"

"huh."

"But why did you suddenly rap that wasn't even on the cue sheet? "I also borrowed MR from the previous Time Rapper."

"Because I'm an MR who has also created rap verses. "I suddenly got excited."

"Hmm."

"And I was curious. "How will my rap be received in the hip-hop scene?"

"Hmm."

"Plus, the microphone setup there was focused on rappers rather than vocalists. "The reverb was low and the EQ settings weren't great."

"Hmm."

Choi Jae-seong could only repeat 'hmm', but Han Si-ion's excuse was a waste of time.

A torrent of unintelligible technical words is thrown out.

However, the more this happens, the clearer it becomes that Han Si-on rapped with irreverent intentions.

Because the average Han Shi-on doesn't explain his actions.

When Choi Jae-seong said 'hmm' for the 8th time, Han Si-on finally admitted the truth.

What I just said is completely true, but I rapped because it seemed like there was little response to my personal performance.

"Successful one-sided deal."

Everyone burst into laughter at Choi Jae-seong's words.

After a brief but pleasant chat, Han Si-on clapped.

"Sleep, try to concentrate."

At first, I thought he was going to change the topic because he was embarrassed, but he wasn't.

There is a story that needs to be heard.

"You know there are five performances tomorrow, right?"

"There are more than ever."

"Fortunately, two are in Hongdae in the early evening, and the third is in Itaewon after midnight."

"What are you happy about?"

"I have plenty of time to go from Hongdae to Itaewon. Tomorrow you will have to take the subway or taxi."

"why? you?"

"I can't go. "I have work to do."

"to do?"

Han Si-on's next words were surprising.

"I have to appear on a variety show."

"Entertainment? "Is there a place that sent a referral to your brother?"

"no. I contacted you. "Please take a picture."

"Where?"

Everyone was shocked at the title of the entertainment program that came out of Han Si-on's mouth.

It is true that entertainment is at the peak of popularity.

but… … .

"You're saying your brother is going to do it?"

"huh."

"That's really going to hell… … ."

As Lee Ion, Koo Tae-hwan, and Choi Jae-seong looked worried, On Sae-miro asked a question.

As Onsaemiro did not normally monitor entertainment programs, 'this program' in which Han Si-on appeared was unfamiliar to him.

But soon Onsaemiro's expression became similar to the other three.

Because Choi Jae-seong played an entertainment program on his cell phone.

However, Han Si-on remained calm.

"I'm not going to hell."

"Really? So it doesn't appear on TV? "That's the fun part."

"well. "Isn't it about time there was at least one cast member who escaped the abyss?"

"What on earth does this guy believe and why is he so confident?"

"annual ring."

The members burst into laughter at Han Si-on's words, which were extremely truthful.

But in the end, the members had no choice but to trust Han Si-on and nod their heads.

"My footage will be broadcast in about two weeks. "Once Coming Up Next is over."

Because I knew this was part of Han Si-on's plan.

But, at that moment, I felt scared.

When I thought about it, I realized that I had to go to the concert tomorrow without Hansion.

Until now, whenever a problem arose during the performance, Han Si-on solved it with amazing improvisation.

So, the members of Sedalbaekil had the thought, 'All you have to do is sing well.'

But not tomorrow.

So they should do well.

then… … .

'I must take responsibility.'

Lee Ion, the eldest brother, thought.

'No one is quick-witted except me.'

Koo Tae-hwan also thought.

'Because they are all people who grew up like flowers in a greenhouse... … .'

Onsaemiro thought.

'Idols are people who lack self-awareness... … .'

Choi Jae-seong also thought.

As a result, a fantastic four-member responsible unit was launched, but until then, they were unaware of each other.

In fact, Si-On Han thought it wouldn't be a bad idea for the performance to fail.

Every singer in the world goes through the process of failing at a performance.

Unless you are a regressor.

Therefore, you will have to experience failure at some point in every three months, and if that happens, now is the time.

There is no responsibility attached to the performance, and there is no betting on the future.

"And finally, I'm going to start working on the album next Monday."

"Our album? A full-length album?"

"no. "It's impossible to go with a regular album; we should go with an EP-level volume."

"When you say EP, you mean mini album, right?"

"yes."

"Are you going to do all the composing and arranging?"

Si-ion Han shrugged his shoulders in response to Ion Lee's question.

You have the ability to do that, but you shouldn't.

"I will do the arrangements, but I will get the songs from famous people as much as possible. "Like Eddie."

"Is there anyone else besides Chris Edward who deserves it?"

"well. I have to look for it. "Nothing is certain yet other than Eddie."

Han Si-on didn't say anything more, but it seemed like he had something planned.

At that time, Onsaemiro brought up an important story.

"What about money?"

"huh?"

"Right now, the only money we're spending is on oil, right?"

"Onsaemiro is right. Making an album costs money. "How are you going to do that?"

Coming Up Next is a program with a viewership rating of over 10%, but the fee the cast received was less than 3 million won.

Fortunately, I received this because it was Coming Up Next, the main content of which was a team battle.

Because public audition programs provide the intangible benefit of fame, no appearance fees are paid.

Over time, the top 10 performers may be paid, but not yet.

Of course, music profits are settled.

However, since payment for music is made three months after release, no one among the 3 Months and 100 Days crew has received payment yet.

In other words, there was no way to cover the money needed to produce the album.

But Si-On Han said it as if it were obvious.

"Of course I have to pay it off as debt. I did not know? "The price of gas is also calculated as a fuel cost."

"debt? "Who do you owe that to?"

"To me."

It was only then that the members realized about Hansion's plan.

The reason why a great-uncle came to visit during filming was because of the property left behind by Han Si-on's parents.

Si-On Han said he hired a lawyer because he didn't want to give his parents' money to those people.

I didn't hear the result, but luckily it seemed like I won.

but… … .

"What if we fail?"

"You're wasting your money."

"It's money you shouldn't waste like that."

"As long as you don't blow it. "Because I succeeded."

It's easier said than done, but success can't be that easy.

For the first time, the Sedal101 crew felt responsibility and realized reality.

They are using the word 'crew', which is similar to 'club', but there will be more and more betting.

At first, it was Hansion's money and their responsibility.

Next time, I will risk my time, and eventually my life.

The countless successes and failures, happiness and sorrows in between are all recorded under the name of 'three months and 100 days'.

So they had to succeed.

You have to do well.

It was the first time I felt such earnestness.

"Zion. "Is the filming tomorrow?"

"yes."

"Take a good picture. To be honest, I'm a bit worried... … . "I trust you will take care of it."

"sure."

"Instead, we will make sure that tomorrow's performance is a success and come back."

"Uh, yes."

Although the members were burning with great enthusiasm with a heavy sense of responsibility… … .

In fact, Si On Han didn't think much of it.

All agency systems are like this anyway.

Training costs, accommodation costs, and album production costs are recorded as debt, and then paid off when sales are made.

The members' enthusiasm was burning amidst such a slight misunderstanding.
