Chapter 534

If you can’t debut, you’ll get a fatal disease Episode 534

Testa’s music video for this comeback.

The first thing that appeared in the video was a picture cartoon type cartoon with cuts between cuts.

A scarlet circus tent with flashing lights in the middle of the night. In the teaser video, the grotesque place where Kim Rae-bin took off his rabbit mask and got sucked into it.

As if in someone’s memory, an echo effect was added, and the faint sound of the performance rang out.

[♬♪♪-♩ ♬♩-♬♪♪] From

colorful lights accordion and harmonica to the unique melodies of circus performances, cheerful drumming.

However, circus performers wearing animal masks looked exhausted and filthy and performed dangerously while wearing prisoner chains, while the black silhouetted audience laughed and bumped their palms.

The image of a joyous festival full of disparities passed all the way, dizzyingly and fragmentarily, as if changing a film.

But, as if a flame had been extinguished, it fizzled

.

everything disappears in a hook

Silence flowed across the screen, calm and dark. And what appears is a dark backstage.

Real video, not cartoon.

[—-]

Slowly close-up as if the camera slowly holding the black screen was being sucked in.

ridge. ridge.

Amidst the slow and meaningful beat of a drum resounding, a figure standing in the center comes into view in the dim beam of light.

It was the silhouette of a circus performer.

The silhouette of the performer who was standing still was tearing off the old mats and chains that were on the outside.

And what emerges... .

A man wearing a long coat with a scarf over a black suit that closes up to his neck.

Ryu Chung-woo.

Click.

The moment the close-up stops.

A lightbulb came on like a flash above Ryu Cheng-wu, who was standing there.

Boo-!

Along with the low howl-like sound of boat horns, the sound of drums like an opening ceremony spread, and the sharp and powerful synthesizer sounded dangerously.

In line with the sound, Liu Chengwu slowly raised his collar, covered his face, and pulled his hat on tightly.

And the moment he suddenly rushes to the screen, the transition to the performance cut.

[It’s now.]

The choreography as if the shadows were spreading exquisitely robbed the view as if swallowing the camera.

After that, music and videos rushed without a break.

Every time the part came and went, the camera moved back and forth between the inside and outside of the complex circus tent to reflect the audience being attacked.

The development method, as if running through a mysterious space from a cameraman’s first-person perspective, increased the degree of immersion.

Even Kim Rae-bin kicked the rabbit mask and threw it in front of the camera at the moment he encountered the shaking camera in the dark.

[The tables have turned

today, you’re the sheep,

jump farther, go ahead,

it’s fun. Somersault]

The modern and heavy syllables, contrasting with the slightly humorous retro circus music I heard for the first time, fell into my ears in line with the performer’s movements.

Even the use of sound effects that quench your appetite.

It felt like an invasion of an advanced civilization.

“... ... Phew.”

The leader of Ether, Noir, replayed the scenes he had watched over and over again.

choreography of stamping one’s feet.

The composition and expressiveness of the choreography seems to have honed the image of ‘hunting’ to the limit in the most attractive way.

No matter what timing you stop, you have a neat sense of intimidation that fits all of the limbs and joints.

[Reversal night

hunting time

(Yea-h)

Call up it’s hunting season]

Halloween night where circus animals reversely hunt the spectators.

The fun and splendid but brutal atmosphere of the circus seemed to be torn apart by the weight class difference in the overwhelming sound and performance.

That catharsis!

The performers brought out the unique atmosphere of the anti-hero without any awkwardness.

The members who learned all about when to apply strength and when to take away wow points most effectively were blown away.

final chorus.

Cha Yoo-jin, who stood at the center, bounced her whole body and moved wildly as if leading the team.

Even then, the moment the music stops as if sucked in, the posing is done at the exact timing.

His eyes flashed like those of an animal.

[Get close to me]

That overwhelming command.

Testa’s music video did not miss the tension until the moment when Seon Ah-hyun threw a circus light bulb on the floor with an expressionless white face.

It was overwhelming no matter how many times I watched it.

“... ... .”

The leader of Ether put down the notes he was taking with slightly trembling hands.

I felt that my eyes were getting farther away.

-Unconsciously, he never admits that he can fail even if he tries hard.

‘therefore... It’s tenacious, but it’s close to obstinacy.’

Did you glorify the fact that you couldn’t lose money because you couldn’t learn the timing with ‘perseverance’?

I came to that conclusion, but the conclusion the T-Holic member made was strange.

-That means you can do your best. Not getting tired for a very long time. Ugh.

The words made me feel a bit tired of myself. like you’ve experienced.

‘... no way.’

At that time, I thought of a different group than the Eter that T-Holic guy had given as an example.

They are idols who would have been the most annoying to T-Holic in their heyday, and a group that fits perfectly with the description of ‘from a large entertainment company’.

[hmm. You’re not wrong.]

It’s VTIC.

From T-Holic’s point of view, VTIC looked like that, so it seemed that Ether was analyzed with the same perspective.

‘It’s not like that.’

VTIC was like that because a madman held on to the leader, which was outside of the standard, and Ether was not outside of that standard.

‘I think it would work only if there were quite a few good guys on the team.’

... The VTIC party seemed to sympathize with me.

[This is a compelling analysis. That’s kind of surprising. I don’t know failures, but I’m on the side of debuting. In fact, it is no different from a flower in a greenhouse.]

“... You see.”

[yes. I don’t want to leave the greenhouse in the future.]

Saying that with your own mouth?

Anyway, I thought I’d keep T-Holic’s advice in my head, but not try to adapt too much to Testa’s situation.

‘Because each situation is different.’

... And I really see with my own eyes that ‘everyone’s situation is different’ after a while.

A few days later.

The day of recording the mid-stage evaluation of < Jinseong Match >. [Leaving the silence and

filling the space with the sound of

gear up applause again ]

Ether took the stage before Testa.

[Set up]

I did my best until the stage was over.

“... ... .”

The amount of practice was shown during the dance break.

Of course, there was perfection before, but this does not mean that.

‘The quality has changed.’

In the past, it felt like I practiced diligently as someone else gave me and taught me, but that feels like I’ve been practicing to squeeze out the ‘maximum’.

‘I can feel that he tried to make an impact as natural as possible for each part.’

There was a desperate mindset to show everything without regret.

It is the expression of a desperate person.

The feeling conveyed to the viewer by a person who, despite knowing the reality that he can’t win, still tries to overcome it no matter what.

“... ... .”

I clenched my fist.

There is a narrative that moves people’s hearts universally in the world.

A situation with a cliff behind.

In the midst of a tightrope walking in a dilemma, he has a bad temper to try to do something with his teeth clenched.

Unique come and effort.

Willingness to keep pushing forward despite being under heavy fire in the midst of checks and controversies.

It was a unique attribute of Rising.

... whatever the cause of the controversy.

Whether you’re a real bastard or not.

The psychology that makes you want to support this team that is going up a lot as an underdog.

– Underdog.

It was a position that Testa almost monopolized until he received the grand prize.

Even in Testa, these ‘naughty guys’ were hereditary, and it was an attribute that was able to capture the public for a very long time by maximizing the narrative through survival.

However, when a challenger becomes a champion, the challenger’s attributes naturally disappear.

Images that can only be had for a limited period of time.

‘But not all well-known teams can have this.’

Because there are minimal lines.

– You look good too.

this was worthy

– If you work hard and do well like that, you should be treated better.

Arousing this sensibility on the stage where the public pays attention.

At least this threshold had to be passed to take effect.

And until now, since Testa, no team has passed that... .

[Jump over!]

The guys who were performing for midterm evaluation on that stage were barely crossing that limit.

“... ... .”

these X feet.

It’s a story that survival producers will love the most.
