Hows the Survival?
JPN Kiseki says The origin of K-pop is in Japan in the 1960s. AWY Ian responds Prove it with music. The controversy over their statements
AWY, appearing on Caden Hurt Show Enthralls the world with witty interview and powerful performance
AWY Caden Hurt Show appearance dominates the global charts in 100 countries
Caden Hurt Show was a popular talk show in the US as well, so it received immediate reactions from everywhere.
Along with the album released this year, the songs from the previous albums also climbed up the overseas music charts and made a comeback.
-Isnt it ridiculous? If they were right, Japanese idols should have been on top of K-pop long ago.
-But who is Kiseki?
-The answer is awesome, really But its not baseless, its actually true, which makes it more awesome
-Look at AWYs copyright list swag
Not only in Korea, but also overseas, the response was hot. On major overseas community sites, there were posts and comments related to AWY, and the overseas AWY fans were busy making materials such as promotional posts and stage interpretations by translating them diligently.
-I expected a werewolf concept, but the stage was different from what I expected? I feel a solemn atmosphere.
Maybe its because of the building behind?
Do you want to see this? Its a comeback show stage, and this might suit your taste better.
-After watching the interview, I thought, lets see how good they are, but the music and performance exceeded my expectations, so, where do I join the fan club?
-My 4 minutes disappeared in an instant.
-But whats that thing behind that looks like a gate?
Hi! Im a French AWY fan! This is related to the painful history of Korea.
The stage of Caden Hurt Show received a lot of attention because they had put a lot of effort into it. In addition, the Independence Gate in the background also attracted attention, and it unintentionally became a Korea-Japan issue.
AWY Caden Hurt Show performs on a meaningful stage with the Independence Gate on the Liberation Day They informed the Korean history
JPN media, AWY, Ians statement is regrettable but agreeable Its a fact that JPN contents have already been surpassed by the Korean Wave
-What do you expect us to do when you express regret
-Do they care about the Korean Wave? Who are they collaborating with?
-But hows the reaction in Japan?
Japanese AWY fans are fighting with the right-wingers?
-Kiseki, good luck with your US debut^^7 I hope you achieve your dream of topping the Billboard^^
What? Are you a fan of Japan?Yôur favorite novels at n/o(v)el/bin(.)com
Its sarcasm, you idiot. Learn to read the context. There are so many illiterates.
AWY, the actual party, felt good and nervous about the explosive reaction.
We didnt intend to do this.
It wasnt in the script we received in advance.
They just looked for an anniversary that coincided with the timing, and they didnt mean to put so much meaning into it. Who would have thought that a topic related to Japan would come up in a live interview.
[The big picture came out.]
It must be a forced big picture.
Ian, the actual party, didnt like this kind of attention, but Jin seemed to like this situation.
As the words piled up, the fabrication became more and more severe, and the atmosphere was overheating.
This makes me nervous about the next one.
There were a lot of words about AWY everywhere. The community praised AWY and Ian for saying the right thing, and they were angry at Japan for trying to stick a spoon in the already done K-pop. They even didnt hesitate to make hateful remarks about Japan and Kiseki.
The nationalistic YouTubers cleverly edited the videos of AWY and Kiseki, and uploaded videos as if they had given a cultural blow to the arrogant Japanese.
Well, its good to be more famous with this.
Ian comforted himself. This kind of issue was necessary to make their name known.
Awi, those kids. They dont have any overseas schedules this year, right?
Ah, yes.
No wonder he sounded so excited when he asked for a meal. Lee Byunghun smiled.
There wont be any need for me to pay the bill today.
He had originally suggested a meal to thank him for taking care of Fevers reality show and to chat casually.
Lee Jong-soo PD watched Lee Byung-hun scan the proposal with a nervous expression.
Those Awy kids. I have to beg them to come out now, right? Wow, their popularity is amazing
They were different from the start, those kids. I really didnt expect them to do so well, you know?
Lee Jong-soo PD praised Awy excessively and fawned over him.
He knew well that he had to put aside his personal friendship and focus on business. Awys price was too high to be swayed by friendship. Awy was so popular that they didnt have to go out for variety shows or anything like that. Thats why they were the number one celebrities that the broadcasting stations wanted to get.
I have to get Awy.
Awy was a brand itself. That meant that the profits from advertising would be huge. And Awy members had musical depth that was different from others, so they could make good content and ratings without relying on Awys popularity.
PD, if youre a pro, well also consider it positively As expected, its a music variety show from PD, right?
The honorific at the end of the sentence, Lee Byung-huns way of saying that he would put friendship aside and focus on business. Lee Jong-soo PD swallowed his saliva.
Yes, I plan to maximize Awy members musical strengths.
This. How is the schedule?
Lee Byung-hun closed the proposal and tapped it with his finger. Lee Jong-soo PD delivered a decisive blow.
The director promised me the weekend prime time slot if Awys appearance is confirmed. Saturday at 8 p.m., Sunday at 6 p.m., of course, its negotiable. If CEO decides, Ill actively reflect it.
Thats good.
The PDs proposal was quite tempting. A program that suggested going back to their pre-debut days and busking. There was also a random communication time with fans, and a growth story that showed how they worked hard as trainees and became global singers.
The scheduling time was also a privilege that the agency could decide, and more importantly, there was a structure that highlighted each members individuality.
Wait, this is a good opportunity, isnt it?
Lee Byung-hun sipped his water and pursed his lips.
Can we also add a survival element?
Really?
I have an idea that I thought of before This PD will like it too.
PD Lee Jong-sus face brightened up in an instant. His tone changed from formal to casual, and his counter-proposal was as good as an acceptance.
Of course, why not?
Good. PD, have you seen the YANG Entertainment survival show?
Yes.
Why is he bringing up the survival show all of a sudden? PD Lee Jong-su nodded his head nervously.
How about a composing survival?
As soon as he heard that, PD Lee Jong-su choked on his water and spilled it on his pants. Lee Byung-hun didnt like survival shows very much because of the malicious editing that Kim Hyun had experienced.
A survival show? But you dont like survival shows, boss.
Its just a name, PD. I know youll take good care of each kid.
Of course. I hate things like evil editing.
Right, and we have a lot of talented kids. Joo-hyuk, Jin-hyuk, Ju-young, these three are the main composers, you know? Dont you think itll make a good picture?
Even if its just a name, its still a competition, right? Dont we need a prize?
PD Lee Jong-su, who loved music, was quite excited by the idea of having three different and diverse styles of music from the composers. The other four members could either focus on the lyrics or join the composing teams. That would be nice too.
Lee Byung-hun gave him the final nail.
A prize? Nothing much. Just the title of the next album. Thatll make the kids go crazy, wont it?
