Chapter 330

TeSTAR's world tour.

Although it was not possible to carry the Seoul concert using the musical as originally planned, the important core parts and stage equipment were well adapted and placed.

'Certainly, the planning and AR staff does a good job.'

Now that it has been launched as a label, the workmanship has become more prominent. I could taste the agency's runaway flavor.

FYI, the head of the planning team was the head of the label. Out of a principle of self-protection we didn't want someone who would do useless things, but he has a good sense of experience, so he's the right person.

'He's not someone famous, so if at some point a problem happens to us, he won't become an arrow at us.'

I've heard a lot of nonsense during the process.

"How about MoonDae becoming the representative?"

"What? Do you want to do it, hyung?"

"Haha, sorry."

There was a guy who came up with the idea that it would be worth staying for another ten years.

'Have an idol directly represent the label.'

There would be endless things I should catch up on...I'd rather set up a company and tell him to be the CEO. I held back a sigh.

Anyway...the first concert of the tour was a success.

Let me breath!

By the time the last encore song ended, there was cheering for a long time until they came down to the back of the stage drenched in sweat and water.

"WOOOOOOW!"

Kung!

Cha YooJin, who jumped down the iron stairs excitedly, laughed out loud.

"It's so much fun! Concerts are the best!"

"S-so it is...!"

"I like it better because the stage shines brightly. We must do this a lot!"

It must have been so much fun swinging the lightsaber. I smiled and shook the water off my head.

Instead, Bae Sejin, who was wiping his stomach with a towel, opened his mouth awkwardly.

"Certainly...concerts are attractive."

"Hyung!"

The guy who used to shit about his lack of stamina and nervousness before his debut, now says that.

'Would he have been influenced because they both became roommates?'

YooJin shouted with more enthusiasm after putting his arms around Bae Sejin's shoulders.

"Okay, no need to take a week off! Let's do it again! Let's do lots of rehearsals!"

Really?

"We won't have a week off."

"Ah??"

I slung my towel over my shoulder.

"We have to camp out."

"..."

"..."

"Yes! We're going to prepare a lot of things to have a good time!"

Only the workaholic is excited.

No, wait. Didn't you all like to work?

"Don't you want to work?"

"...! N-not that...!"

Then why is it?

At that moment, following Sen AhHyun's words, Bae Sejin turned his head and muttered.

"When you say that...something ridiculous usually happens."

"..."

"Yes, everyone is scared because Park MoonDae said it in a meaningful way. MoonDae MoonDae's fault...Agh!"

So loud.

I hit Keun SeJin on the back and immediately regretted the water splashed on my hands.

Ryu CheongWoo, who looked at us with pleased eyes, opened his mouth.

"Hmm, then, shall we camp out after the concert in Osaka instead of having an after party?"

"Aaah..."

The chilly atmosphere at the idea of camping was getting warmer.

However, no one objected to the idea of an after party instead of camping.

...Are they really scared?

'Did I say it too one-sidedly?'

Come to think of it, I didn't collect their opinions correctly. I rubbed the back of my head and shook my head.

"We have to do...the after party."

"...!"

I relaxed and smiled.

"It's been a while since we've had a concert, so we have to celebrate. We couldn't do it properly because we were busy even after receiving the Daesang."

"Park MoonDae..."

"Yes, y-you're right...!"

Working for too long...it's not good, physical strength is important for us to work well all together.

I nodded satisfied with the warm atmosphere.

"Come on, let's go on."

"Yes~"

Soon after, TeSTAR started running backstage, hearing uninterrupted shouting following the instructions of the staff and leader.

I let the others go first and slowly got up from my seat. Then Keun SeJin came to my side.

"MoonDae MoonDae, you know I was joking, right? When everyone listens to your opinion, they always follow you because the results are good."

"..."

"It's not because you're pressuring us, okay?"

"All right."

"Great~"

I saw Keun SeJin smiling again. Certainly...he's more than witty.

That's why I'm more convinced.

'I'm sure he's waiting.'

That is, until I tell him my story. He may even be analyzing the incongruities he's felt so far.

'I should see the camp schedules.'

Once we're working, when this guy is completely exhausted and loses his critical thinking skills, I can take a lot of movies and dramas as examples...

"Let's do well on the next album."

Yes. He also thinks that's our priority.

'Let's do our job well for now.'

The next day's concert ended well, surprisingly we were in good condition, we didn't even have minor injuries.

And the proper and nice level of the after party also ended well.

It was a proper base.

Thanks to that, everyone attended the camp the next day with a smile on their face.

"Did we order room service?"

"The manager brought us laptops for our composition camp!"

Everyone has a good face because they are having a good time. They look full of passion.

I didn't stop these guys from preparing the food and table with enthusiasm. Rather, I helped as I should, and when they relaxed, I went out to give them the hit of impact.

In the living room of the suite I turned on the projector in front of the guys sitting side by side on the couch.

[TeSTAR Direction]

"AhHyun AhHyun, look at that. He even prepared some presentation material. He was totally serious."

"Yes..."

Of course I'm serious when it comes to work. It's not a joke.

"First, I will tell you the results of the analysis of the current situation."

Cha YooJin silently put down the popcorn he was eating.

"As you all know, TeSTAR won five Daesangs this year."

"Oooh."

"But that's not what we should observe now."

"What?"

I changed the display.

[Loviewers Distribution]

[→ Voting results for the Daesang Artist of the Year Award]

"These are the voting results for the Daesang Artist of the Year, a popularity award."

I extended my hand.

"As you can see, we won Daesang in three award ceremonies. What did they have in common?"

"I don't know! Say it!"

He's so confident.

"They were awards that prevented overseas voting. TeSTAR got the most support from Korean fans, who considered our comeback as one of the two best comebacks of the year."

"Waah."

"MoonDae-ya, where did you get this information from?"

"From the internet."

I went back to talk to the gawking bastards.

"However, when overseas KPOP fans participate in the voting, that result changes."

"...VTIC sunbae-nim wins unconditionally."

"Right."

I changed the display to a graph of voting levels. There are even one or two examples of capturing voting results where TeSTAR ranks third or fourth.

"We even lost to idol groups from other agencies."

"Hmmm."

"We are still definitely weak overseas."

I came to the conclusion

I had shown them that to say the following.

"Then, I would like to properly work on the next album aiming at the global market, what do you think of that?"

"..."

Members exchanged glances with each other or looked at the screen of the presentation material.

There was no positive affirmation. Even YooJin, whose origin is America, is the same.

I laughed inwardly.

'That's how it was meant to be.'

No one should fall overjoyed at such naive words.

Instead, a rebuttal came.

"If we do well in Korea, wouldn't people abroad recognize us? We have seen many cases where they try to force their way into the global market and fail."

That's right. In fact, we don't bother to do overseas activities because of that.

"Since we already won Daesangs, I think those who know the domestic situation will know that. Isn't it time to appeal a bit more to increase the level of overseas exposure?"

"Hmm...yes."

CheongWoo seemed to understand in his own way. But then came the next one.

"But then again, I don't think Korean fans will like it~."

It's Keun SeJin.

"Obviously we can show our own content through W App, but honestly, there will be a sense of distance~ It may seem like we're not loyal to them for doing it immediately after receiving Daesang!"

I crossed my arms and smiled.

"You're right. If Korea's top idol group changes their direction to be friendlier to overseas fans, it will be like servility."

"Eeei, it may not be that bad, but we should try to know and consider their disappointment! That's just it. MoonDae knows everything~"

That was an accurate point.

"That's true."

I nodded my head.

"Then, the most correct thing to do would be for them to invite us to go."

"Invite?"

"Yes, let the U.S. invite us. If we go, we can increase our exposure while they test us."

"W-we get tested?"

It's not that we are eager to enter the U.S., but they might invite us, so it wouldn't hurt to do some activities there.

Instead of giving an answer, I simply said the conditions.

"As long as it is a field that is not related to KPOP. VTIC is already well positioned there."

"At the same time, the invitation should not look too artificial."

"It should be a popular theme, something worth using."

The guys' faces went blank at what I said. Yes, it's complicated, so they have to take some time to think about it.

But as soon as I shut my mouth, there was one guy who raised his hand.

'Oh.'

It's Kim RaeBin.

"I don't know if I can say my opinion?"

"Of course you can. Say it."

"Yes! I'd like to talk about a topic that has recently become well recognized in the United States!"

I laughed inside. I knew the answer would come out.

"What is it?"

"It's "127 Section" by Ruins Factory."

"...!"

"The new game has also been a big hit in the U.S. and a movie will be made based on its worldview, so I think it would be good for us to try to participate in the OST of the movie!"

"Hey, a movie?"

Of course, opposition would pour in here and there.

"Hmm~ Wouldn't it be the same as last time? We didn't create a separate account for "Star Songs" for nothing."

Of course, getting involved with the game company again is a complete challenge to the mind.

And surprisingly, Bae Sejin gave a supportive comment to Keun SeJin.

"Yes! And that company is also owned by T1. It would seem to be an internal plan of the company...!"

Actually, if it wasn't an internal company plan, how could we contact them? But maintaining the image is also very important.

'Because if the media judges it as self-praise, from that point on, everything will become a joke.'

TL/N: If it is not understood, it is not in their best interest to associate directly with Ruins Factory as the press might claim that they were not invited, but it was a predetermined deal for both T1 and TeSTAR's affiliated label to gain, then there would be no special achievement, but a mockery and that would not help to break any records.

However, Kim RaeBin did not withdraw his opinion.

Instead, he released more information.

"...! That's possible. However, as I checked, the movie is being produced somewhere else where T1 has no influence."

"How?"

"It is a Hollywood production."

"...!"

"That's what I read in the comments when I opened the Star Songs account. All the players are expecting "Limestone" to take over."

"Limestone?"

Cha YooJin exclaimed.

"It's a hero movie production company! It's incredibly famous!"

Yes, it's a line of hero movies under an animation company notorious for its intellectual property business.

It's an American company.

I spoke to them.

"So...the parent company, T1, may make contact quickly, but it may actually look like the U.S. company called us."

And since the film production company is another big company with a famous IP, the fact that we have been very involved with the game might be remembered.

"Yes! Don't you think that would be nice?"

Would it be good?

No, it would be best.

'We got the 1st candidate right away.'

As expected, this guy has a peculiar sense among all his senses. It's the sense of choosing well the fun things he wants to do.

"I like that."

"...!"

"I wonder how everyone feels about that."

"I like it!"

"I agree with it too!"

The vote in favor was pretty clear.

There seemed to be a lot of people who were interested in the proposal because it was a new challenge and the things they were worried about were resolved.

Finally, Keun SeJin opened his mouth with a smile.

"Alright, let's do our best~."

"Hmm, then we have come to a conclusion."

We decided to aim to participate in the OST of a Hollywood hero movie, which is like the essence of a subculture.

Sporadic applause came from everywhere.

"I-I will contact the label's representative...Shall I tell him that we want to work with them...?"

"That's right."

"Waah."

"I liked the game. It's good to make a good movie."

Bae Sejin muttered bitterly.

"But what if they don't accept us...?"

"So what? Limestone will miss it."

"...Is that so?"

YooJin shrugged and asked why he was so scared when he was an idol who won Daesangs. The atmosphere lightened a little.

'Great.'

This is the best time to talk.

"Then, I hope that the main song we make will also feel like something that people who have known the hero movie based on the original game can enjoy."

"You're right."

"I think it's going to be a lot of fun."

"Hmm, okay."

I laughed.

"So, from now on, let's pick a concept that works well for that side, that doesn't feel intentional about wanting to work with them, and that expresses the color of TeSTAR well. That's an order."

"..."

"An order..."

That's how the KPOP hell camp started, where brainstorming is rampant.

But there was a problem.

Unlike the amateur composition camp, the difference between honor students and students who are not good became more pronounced.
