Debut or Die - 289In the waiting room before the live broadcast of MusicBOMB, Tnet's music program.- MoonDae, would you like a drink?- Water, please.I received a bottle of water from Keun SeJin, who had volunteered to hand out drinks, and continued to monitor.We still had some time to spare."First, the album."As expected, the trend of the album is... no, inflation is a bit more severe than expected.TN: "Inflation" in the sense of "excessive abundance."Both VTIC and TeSTAR."Could it be because of the competitive mindset?"[TeSTAR (테스타) "The Ocean of Wonder" - 1,317,215]We have already sold over 1.3 million copies.I noticed that our album sales exceeded the expected number in four days, then I thought about VTIC's sales in the first week and stopped thinking for a while.- ...Those crazy people managed to sell more than 2 million repackage albums in their first week?"They really eat well."To manage to be on par with these guys in this situation, we had to check the numbers more carefully.I checked the music rankings.[7th place: VTIC - H.E.L.P.][9th place: TeSTAR - Promise]We are following them closely in the daily rankings. At 24Hit we are already shifting up and down, and there is a high probability that our rankings will flip completely after a while.This is because the response to our song was as good as expected.It's easy to listen to and has a good seasonal feel, so it seemed that people who had previously heard our song, added it to their playlist right away."It's good to listen to on the road or while driving."And the tune was good enough to attract new listeners. It was interesting to release it at the same time as VTIC, but....- Certainly, AhHyun-ah looks better here.- Doesn't it? I think AhHyun-ah would look really good even if he had a real mermaid tail~.- No more tails! We don't have that!- Ya, YooJin-ah, your tail doesn't even appear in the music video~.- Haha.Hmm. It was definitely because of that element.The mermaid concept made the aggro explode."It's a bit shocking just hearing that word as a concept..."The fans we have are used to how we make our videos, but if they just heard the concept, they'd probably think "They'd be dressed up as mermaids in the music video!" and have a rough idea of what it would sound like."They'd imagine an animated series for kids or a B-movie."And if... they think of a regular CG, they'd already guess what it would be like.- TeSTAR's concept of mermaids is fucking awesome!└ Mermaids? Mermaids that live in the sea? You didn't mishear?However, when they click on the music video because they are attracted to aggro, the mermaids will only appear briefly after a long time.And it wasn't CG. Actually, animatronic tails were made and inserted into the final edit to look like the members.TN: "Animatronics" is the technique that, through the use of robotic or electronic mechanisms, simulates the appearance and behavior of living beings using puppets or other mechanical dolls. Example GIF in the chapter folder.It was just enough to convince that the boys dressed in shorts and played in the sea at sunset fulfilled the mermaid concept."If I had to explain it...I'd say it causes a feeling similar to an art film."All those who clicked on the video anticipating that they would see the TeSTAR members actually disrobed, glitter-sprayed, CG-tailed in a full-body approach, were fooled.- What? It's better than I thought- It's just a well done emotional music video, but you can tell they've invested a lot of capital to make it.- Do those fins and tail mean he's a mermaid? Oh, I get it, ha- The one who took off... the shirt was CheongWoo. Okay, I get it... I'm satisfied with his silhouette.It has become a good Internet story to see people who are attracted to aggro come out confused, saying that the video is unexpectedly good. Thanks to that, the amount of views of the music video was steadily increasing.In addition, the rumors that the song is good help the music stream a lot."Although... it's hard to avoid that there are people who like it and people who don't like it."- I love mermaids ㅜ It's the best concept.└ It's not- Delete it and give me my money back sht they're not even real mermaids?└ Then watch the performance└ I'm sorry, but I'm writing this because I'm afraid they will come out as mermaids on stage. Please read this, T1 bastards.There were various reactions, from people who had that kind of opinion to those who expected a real mermaid makeup, but since most of the responses were good, it was a success. Rather, these kinds of comments turned into noise marketing."I took this into consideration."When many years pass and I look back on this time, I will not regret it because the music video is not bad enough to become a dark story for us.In fact, I thought we could give little hints suggesting the concept of mermaids... but that wouldn't be enough."We needed to make more of an impact."If we had chosen just the voyage concept, we would never have achieved the composition of being the opposite side of VTIC.The number of mentions will vary."In the end, it's a popularity battle."But is ambiguous because TeSTAR does not have a popularity level as large as YoungRin's, nor a fandom as organized and powerful as VTIC's.Besides, the concept VTIC took this time even worked better overseas.I just remembered when I met them in the hallway.- Good morning, hoobae-nims from TeSTAR!- It's been a long time since we last saw each other~The VTIC guys were cheating, anyway, we smiled, said hello and had a moderately harmonious conversation."There were a lot of staff and singers coming and going, so we had no choice but to be harmonious."So, the words of blessing came from our side.- Congratulations on getting the second place on Billboard's album chart, sunbae-nims~! You are admirable!- Hahaha, thank you!These guys entered the Billboard chart by updating their rankings.It turns out that the strange concept of cosmic horror is a well-known worldview with quite a bit of tradition and scale in foreign countries.Thanks to that, foreign fandom was hooked, and the US schedule seems to be tight. I'm sure that was their intention."If this gets all over the media, they might push back on us because of the issue of promoting national prestige..."But I was glad to have secured a trend with spicy aggro for the mermaid concept before that happened.I shrugged and stopped reminiscing.Because the conclusion was obvious."We need to put on a good performance on stage."We need to raise the current interest once again. Only then can we keep this composition secured.I stopped looking at my phone. Ryu CheongWoo, who was accepting Kim RaeBin's accusation about Cha YooJin, turned his head and asked.- Are you going to stretch your muscles?- Yes.Soon it was time for our live performance.TeSTAR's order was the second to last, the third if we count down.Next up is a girl group that has been around for quite some time.... The last one is, of course, VTIC.- WAAAAAAAAH!!!Perhaps that order is intended to avoid direct comparison between the two groups, but it doesn't mean much because they share the concert hall anyway."There's a lot of them."I lined up in line as I watched the spectating fans, who were practically half VTIC fans and the other TeSTAR fans, stand at the back of the stage.There are many occasions when we don't pre-record and just do a live performance in a proper way, but this time it looks like we will work hard as the whole audience is focused on us."Sometimes, fans film with cameras, so they might circulate recordings."We went on stage, waved our hands to greet the fans and then positioned ourselves in formation.The first performance, in which we will use chairs, is a secondary song whose rhythm is close to Latin pop.Como tu dulce y amargo café(Like your sweet and bitter coffee)My loveCha YooJin takes over the Spanish chorus and dazzles with his choreography and vocals."He has grown up."His singing ability has improved.The thought of checking his status window briefly crossed my mind, but disappeared as soon as I realized he was on stage.Charm in the hot airYour heart blooms like smokeI sang the part of the second verse, following the melody. After performing the jumping choreography while taking a few steps, I turned, slid to the side, grabbed a chair and the formation changed.And Kim RaeBin sat alone on a chair and sang rapping.After that, the chorus of the second half of the song followed and the final climax came safely.The adrenaline was soaring.- Huuh.- AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!The reactions are good."We tried quite hard because of the difficulty of this performance."I looked at my feet just before the bridge, preparing myself for the main song that would immediately follow.And I smiled unconsciously.Here's the fun part.Our current outfits were not quite in keeping with the secondary song we were performing, even though it had a catchy beat.Since they are outfits focused on the main song we will be performing live.Take your STAROn the day the stars fallWe all wear jeans and white t-shirts.* * *"Cool!"When the master of Park MoonDae's first fansite saw the outfits in TeSTAR's live performance, she unconsciously clenched her fists feeling victory.She couldn't help it as it was the first outfit that came to her mind when she wondered which one she liked the most in the music video."You'd have to be blind not to like it."Jeans and white t-shirt? Can't be a bad outfit if you're in good shape!It was obvious they had all worked out as the lightweight fabric matched their bodies perfectly. Almost instinctively she prepared to click on the video.At the same time, some outfit options for the future automatically came to her mind.Maybe they would wear the outfits from the music video in their first week of promotions. Work clothes, casual summer clothes, beach clothes with robes...."...And at least once in mermaid costumes?"However, it was a costume that never appeared in the music video, and the mermaid is just a story concept, so she quickly abandoned her expectations."Seeing the first option they chose as costumes, I think they will continue to promote without choosing experimental options. Please, I hope they will keep it up to the end, huh."And the performance began!She cleared her mind immediately and focused all her attention on the stage in front of her sight.It had a background with a refreshing blue sky and a white sandy beach.And the performance they were giving...It was like an essence that extracted the fun of watching and listening in an extremely pure way.We sail to an island in the skywe fly so farThere was no movement to indicate that this choreography was like a simple walk.Each step had to have an attention-grabbing element that followed the rhythm, whether it was sliding, running or jumping.In addition, there were some changes in the style of the choreography depending on the part of the song, which attracted attention with impressive movements that matched perfectly.For example, Lee SeJin's bridge had a leg kick move that is usually applied in tango, and Cha YooJin's chorus featured a blocking action.And in the middle of the song, there was only a difference in the speed of the choreography. There was no time to rest.That means the choreography had been made for people to watch and not get bored at any time.Make you fly!- Park MoonDae!!Being such a refreshing performance, I felt a pleasure as if drinking an ice-cold carbonated drink.Meanwhile, during the "Take Your STAR" part, the point dance was to make gestures and looks that subtly added to the song like a sticker.TN: "Point dance" is the detail in a dance step or movement that draws the most attention.It was extremely catchy."It seems like the song sounds better because of the choreography."Lee SeJin and Cha YooJin, who had almost fought while making a draft with the choreography they wanted to follow, would have been impressed if they heard it.However, on the screen, they both flew around the stage looking for the cameras, keeping their expressions alive to enhance the mood.As the formations changed, the performance ate up time in an instant.Before they knew it, they had reached the end.Beyond the horizon, until the end of the islandtoday's day will shineUsing the camera work to the fullest, it zoomed in to show Seon AhHyun who was in the middle of a formation whose movements resembled the waves of the sea in the foreground.In that instant, the emotional vocals and drum rhythm come and go, and the acrobatics that appeared for the first time in the whole choreography also looked amazing.Umm~ UmmUmmThe members bowed their heads to the sound of the last tune and even sat cross-legged and did the point dance.Each of the smiling members made gestures such as putting their arms around each other's shoulders or bringing a hand to their chin, and the song ended.A series of beautiful, well-handled faces were captured one after another on the screen.[TeSTAR – Promise]- Hoo.The master gasped again only after the song title appeared on the screen and the final close-up of Park MoonDae disappeared."It was so much fun."Then, in conclusion."This is going to work."Apparently, it would start with a dance challenge. As the rumors had made the music video go viral, the release of this performance would make many people feel attracted to upload all kinds of videos related to the song.From the music video, it was already known that the choreography was not incredibly difficult, but it was simply breathtaking and addictive.Just by looking at the social media in real time at this moment, it was clear that similar reactions emerged.- Is it over already?- They are really good as sirens, so they had to do a good job on stage too hahahahahaha.- After watching the performance, it seems that the song sounds better, is this an auditory hallucination?- This performance has a unique and delicious flavor.- I can't get bored of watching that "tik tak to" where they move their waist, hands and hips in the chorus (Video).
TN: "틱택토" (Tik tak to) is the game "noughts and crosses". It refers to doing three steps in succession.- It's working.No matter what VTIC fans say, the trend in Korea is TeSTAR!She predicted the future with satisfaction. Such a prediction was to flow in a similar way in reality.Yet, it was not only TeSTAR who took advantage of the attention they attracted by the consumption of their song.* * *- Music's explosion of joy! MusicBOMB~- This week's 1st place goes to... Congratulations! VTIC!The MCs of the music program politely presented bouquets of flowers and a trophy to VTIC.It was obvious. Today's result includes the score VTIC got last week as it is within the counting period, so if VTIC was not number one, it would have been a manipulated result.- First of all, we would like to thank Tika, who supported us to get this award today....I smiled brightly and applauded those who said their thanks and appreciation for getting first place. Everyone is doing that.I'm sure there's no fool here who can't control their expression.But they must be thinking about a lot of things, in my case...yeah, I'd say I'm evaluating."These bastards are definitely good."It was my first time seeing these guys' main song performance properly.And it was just too... awesome."They're digging a good hole."TN: It comes from the Korean proverb "To dig a well you have to dig a good well," which means that if you do several things at the same time, you can't finish any of them well, so you have to focus on one thing to succeed.They said the music video was a compilation of content that their fans would like, and the performance was the same."Intense and exhilarating, high quality performance."It didn't get to the point of losing popularity, but the performance they did of the intro where they were fighting a snake was only for the fandom.TN: Only the fandom would understand and be satisfied with that introduction, others would see it as strange or not pay attention to it."And their skills stood out as they performed the performance."It's not for nothing that they always gain new fans.- This was MusicBOMB, see you next week!I bowed my head to the first place guys, then waved my hands in farewell, stepped off the stage and concluded.Although the songs we promoted are different from each other, I don't think they will find any fault with our performance.And actually, the response was similar.The following week, TeSTAR continued to rise in the music rankings thanks to the buzz and best song selections according to users on social platforms.And it finally happened.========================[TeSTAR song just reversed its position with that of VTIC].It just reached 5th place. It seems that TeSTAR has the best song in terms of male idol groups (Capture)========================- It's crazy- It's so funny hahahaha cngrts TeSTAR.- Honestly, the song is really good. I think it's the best one└ It was composed by Kim RaeBin.└ Hahaha it seems like you take care of the name of the member who composed it. I don't know if it's the first or second guy, could you put his name please?└ It's the first one (Capture with name included)└ Hahahahahahahaha- I'm glad they came out a week late. Album sales are deceiving too, ha.- I didn't know it would do very well. The performance was very good, the music video too.- It was lucky└ Yolpolk- The atmosphere is really fierce. Will it be like this until it's resolved?TN: "열폭" (Yolpok) is short for "열등감 폭발" (Explosion of inferiority complex). This is a way of referring to people who act rudely because they feel jealous and envious that someone else is better.The rankings in the music rankings were reversed with those of VTIC.In fact, there was a mess for a while discussing whether that would be the definitive result, but it calmed down quickly. VTIC continued to be splendid, even the overall records were out of the question.Starting with "No. 1 in 76 countries", interviews and invitations to award ceremonies, as well as the amount of mentions and views of their music video in the UK and the US.It was incredible.Thanks to its brilliant status, people kept watching the video and listening, and VTIC's title song continued to top the national charts.The same was true not only in music issues, but also in general current affairs. It's something we have to endure."We are too close."We got the top spot this week as planned, but it was still unclear how the perception would change in August."I'm pleased that the dual hierarchy has solidified."It is now rare to see comments that say "How dare you put TeSTAR in VTIC's rightful place."This tension should hold until the end of the year.I took note and decided to wait for the decisive end.On the other hand, the day came back when we would be at a music show.It had been 3 weeks since TeSTAR made a comeback.And this would be VTIC's last performance of their album in a music show.In fact, they ended their promotions last week, but since it's a special episode, it looks like Tnet hung up his pants.TN: Just like a child, Tnet threw a tantrum until VTIC agreed to appear on his show.And I realized that was the first turning point."We need to capture the full attention of the audience."We had to make a big impact and become the hottest topic.However, little did I know that I would encounter an unexpected and unfortunate situation in this special.A hoobae group appeared to make a performance on that special of the program.It was the group that debuted in the last season of "Icorpo".
