Chapter 68

The story Kang Min told more shocking than thought.

Intentionally ostracized when preparing ensemble and said hit by Im Hyeontaek in the bathroom went to find to start ensemble.

“Hey, so stayed still?”

“No, just lightly said one word...”

The next story that came out of Kang Min’s mouth more shocking.

Words like if release album do 100 people listen, if perform do 10 people come.

Practice more in the time of badmouthing others...

Past life.

Kang Min as soon as seeing me at Lee Doyoung’s funeral grabbed the collar.

And this life as soon as first seeing us immediately said let’s ensemble.

At Band Slam not enduring and defied Im Hyeontaek.

Knew there is such unhesitating aspect but more than thought.

“That not the category of ‘lightly’ this guy.”

“No, but even so hit person’s cheek? Hey Cha Seoha you go and beat a bit? Exercised.”

“Hey, Heo Junseong. If I hit person special assault.”

“Ah, right.”

Kang Min started telling the story more.

“And earlier received score messed probably that hyung played prank again.”

“Wow... Completely crazy guy.”

Heo Junseong no hesitation in expression.

Following Kim Jihu’s surprised reaction continued.

“Wait, then you played that memorizing without score?”

Kang Min’s outro playing difficulty very high.

6 hours absurd period and level ordinary skilled person have to practice at least a month to play.

“Ah, that freestyle. So team members surprised and ensemble not proper.”

“Wow...”

“Wow...”

“Monster...”

I concerned that Kang Min’s tone not thinking of returning.

“Hey, Kang Min.”

“Yeah?”

“Remember the words I said?”

“Words you said?”

“Words of do as personality and come.”

“Ah, of course remember.”

“Why do you think I said those words?”

Kang Min only tilting head.

“Knew would be like this from seeing combination. Will ensemble go well? Even if no fight the unity you value so much absolutely wouldn’t.”

“Cha Seoha you knew result would be like this?”

“Of course. Not doing last place miraculous.”

“Well, if so a bit heart relieved...”

“And another.”

“Another?”

In fact in the words I said to Kang Min do as personality and come two meanings contained.

One if Im Hyeontaek torments don’t care broadcast or whatever say words wanting.

And another exactly...

“You not a bit sore body doing popular things with us until now?”

“Wow...”

Kang Min admired instead of answering.

Because understood my words at once.

“Meaning go up and fully release stress and come. Well, result seemed did so. How? Fun?”

Kang Min tightly bit lips and stared at ceiling once.

“You kid really...”

Didn’t hear the words continuing behind.

Looking at Kang Min’s too bright smile seemed already heard the answer.

Didn’t obtain high rank but anyway not round that eliminates.

Judges fine whoever attach.

Anyway I will move leading.

And us coming out on this broadcast solely for Lee Doyoung.

In the end all things for friend.

Being able to resolve other member’s frustrated part in that process much more valuable thing than receiving briefly low rank.

* * *

Four judges convert to producers from today after.

Bulryang Onion’s Shin Myeongcheol.

Phoenix’s Kim Hyeongtae.

Matryoshka’s Park Cheolhwan.

Seoul 1977’s Jeong Hyeok.

Upper four teams chose the producer each wanting.

Among them Maruru Band designated Park Cheolhwan producer and Park Cheolhwan made pleasant smile.

Because strongest team entered own team.

And middle rank eight teams.

While the relevant teams choosing producer a few refusals there.

Refused teams pushed to the very back order even among middle rank bands and have to choose again.

Among producers the person least popular Park Cheolhwan.

Not other because most strict and scary image.

Oktap designated Park Cheolhwan judge and no refusal.

Destruction together with Bulryang Onion’s Shin Myeongcheol producer.

Bulryang Onion pioneer of Joseon punk and no reason Destruction using punk as main weapon not attach this side.

Like that after finishing matching production team proceeded interview without fail today too.

* * *

Before cast going on the way home.

As always team group interview proceeded.

In front of Oktap now quite familiar camera and main writer Kim Dayoung seated.

“How did other members see Kang Min’s stage today?”

The first to answer the question Kim Jihu.

“Technician very excellent. In situation of having to take care of all speed sense and rhythm sense, delicacy of velocity no collapse at all. Skill where the time he poured until now felt. Watched very well.”

Kim Jihu answering as if became judge.

Then Heo Junseong continued answer.

“Completely highest. Min playing to this degree we also first saw.”

“Yes, understood. Kang Min. Showed cool stage. While preparing no difficulties?”

Full-scale question.

Other members briefly panicked at production team’s question.

Kang Min not caring.

Because Cha Seoha said do as personality.

He chose honest answer without lie.

“Yes, none.”

At Kang Min’s answer writer Kim Dayoung briefly tilted head.

Probably not the answer wanted.

But Kang Min only answering honestly.

What tormented him the memories that floated on stage after that Im Hyeontaek’s provocation only degree of mosquito buzzing sound.

“Is that so. Then no such as communication difficult between team members?”

“Um, not particularly... No such.”

“Um... Then, arranged a lot while arranging opinions not matching or such?”

“None at all. Arrangement most easy.”

“Ha, is that so. Understood. Let’s do up to here.”

Like that production team had to finish interview without hearing the stimulating answer wanted.

But writer Kim Dayoung resolved.

Because this incident must use.

She firmly resolved to definitely pull out something even from this nothing special interview.

Until Who’s The Real’s main broadcast exactly 2 weeks left.

Who’s The Real aired every Thursday night 10 on K-Net now entered full-scale promotion.

If turning K-Net channel even during other broadcast times logo and broadcast information floating small on upper left.

YouTube and various SNS, even in K-Net channel’s advertisements full-scale promoting official videos.

But with this degree firepower limit in promotion.

In Cha Seoha’s past life TV broadcast’s power almost disappeared but this period of 2018 transitional period.

This period the year one entertainer started YouTube with interview content in earnest and granted meaning to entertainer’s YouTube activity.

At the same time period users rapidly increasing as mainstream SNS era transferring.

In other words timing needing viral on platforms other than legacy media.

On one SNS account such post went up.

-K-Net starting band audition program called Who’s the Real lineup what?

And a few photos that went up.

There photos of cast not yet officially publicized went up.

From first in order Maruru Band’s Min Hyeona, Choi Sihyeon, Oktap’s Cha Seoha, Kang Min, Kim Jihu.

And in last photo only such words written on white background.

-No this degree not idol audition? Visual ends? Have to watch real broadcast what real like lol

The relevant post reaction quite good and countless comments attached.

-Wow what? There were such people in Korean band? Super handsome super pretty

-Wow Oktap unexpected not seeming come out on such broadcast

-Everyone here not uploaded in photo Heo Junseong really makes people crazy everyone look a bit really not a joke...

└Ah really acknowledge Heo Junseong people have to know my unique crazy good-looking a bit

-Wow finally seeing Oktap on broadcast ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

└ㅇㅈ Not one-time broadcast so can see long better

└Before separately picked interview at Banwol Park amount quite?

└Ah really? What questions did?

└Couldn’t hear such

└Kkㅂ

-Wow Hyeonaimo visual what? How that 29 years old?

└??????????? Not 19 years old?

└Yes? 29 years old? Not high school student?

└Wow crazy cutely good-looking

└No but imo a bit...

└Nickname fans call among themselves Hyeonaimo lolol

└Ah lolol okay

-Cha Seoha receives some management somewhere? Really crazy visual

└Cha Seoha now high schooler if appearance completes how much more good-looking...

└Wow just briefly imagined not making sense

└Sincerely level of losing talent to band scene

Officially publicized advertisement video and SNS viral promotion have different advantages.

SNS promotion’s biggest effect exactly the point communication among those who encountered the news immediately achieved.

Public’s active communication raising expectation about broadcast one layer more.

That interest only growing as days pass.

* * *

K-Net producing effective promotion effect.

Official teaser video and advertisement video.

And reactions of posts scattered on various SNS and YouTube quite hot.

Of course the power the main material gives like band and rock and video with stimulating editing added greatly contributed.

Leaked viral about cast putting outstanding visual forward most effective.

“As expected program only means. Character has to live for taste to watch.”

PD Lee Jongmyeong making pleased smile while looking at filming so far and roughly edited videos.

“Dayoung. But Oktap kids a bit no source?”

“Yes. These kids nothing doing usually more than thought.”

Broadcast internal story also good but if personal narrative enters there becomes excellent.

And PD Lee Jongmyeong needing story usable for that personal narrative made employees investigate Oktap’s usual life radius.

“What does Cha Seoha do and live?”

“That kid only music and exercise. At school not even listening to class well.”

“Um, not good. Heo Junseong? That kid seems a bit delinquent no particular problem at school?”

“Heard words of hitting one student in the past...”

“Hit? That kid bully? School violence?”

“No, rather than that saw bully kids tormenting weak kids and angry and hit.”

“Um, fine but a bit ambiguous. Kang Min dropout heard that kid also nothing to use?”

“That guy also except music and exercise what... Ah, stops by figure shop?”

“Ah, what sound that.”

PD Lee Jongmyeong gradually annoyed.

“Kim Jihu student council president.”

“Stop, stop. Student council president what.”

At the old-fashioned word student council president PD Lee Jongmyeong about to give up personal narrative.

The guy called Lee Doyoung looking quiet nothing seemed.

“Wait.”

Momentarily someone flashed in PD Lee Jongmyeong’s head.

“Writer Kim. This guy seems seen a lot somewhere?”
