Chapter 349

'So...Eugene will go out there?'

Hannah Hamilton, who graduated from the same high school as Cha YooJin, sat on the couch in front of the late night TV for the first time in a long time.

She was using the fact that she met Cha YooJin in high school as an excuse to watch the show.

'Anyway, we met a few years ago.'

On the TV show where they had their own restaurant where they sold hotteok, a Korean fusion snack.

"Hmm...Have we met before? In high school? Or elementary school?"

"Oh...I'm Hannah Hamilton. We were in the same class when we were in high school."

"Oh~ Hannah! It's nice to see you again. How are you?"

Cha YooJin, who surprisingly works in the KPOP subculture, had the unique feeling of still being popular.

Having met his group at that time (now she knows it's called a group, not a band!), she had looked up the group's activities several times.

It was because she had a strange affinity for a boy her age who was so proud of himself for being in a subculture just like her.

And despite being scared off by some cultural differences, she ended up here.

'A straight guy in his 20s who dyed his hair pink.'

'...Cha Eugene does this too? Magical girl from an anime?'

'They're a great team who really care about each other...'

She even came to empathize while watching the variety show they did in America.

[MESS~ MEEEESSS~]

A humorous caption in primary color flowed on the screen. Hannah looked at it disapprovingly.

'This show is funny, but I don't know why they're on there.'

-TeSTAR can't go out there!

This is sadistic and harmful garbage that is like a third-rate reality show that only annoys people who want to make their names known.

KPOP fans were screaming on her account. Honestly, so was she to a certain extent.

[-The challenge that the challenger will do today is...! To stand inside a red coffin and endure 30 minutes listening to strange noises inside an abandoned, dark house!]

[-But that's not all! The moment he chickens out, he'll come out as a lovable unicorn! He'll be a loser!]

In this way, he would be ridiculed and teased under the guise of defiance.

It is a structure of presumption that mocks those who have proudly challenged, saying, "Sure I can do it," thus avoiding ethical censure.

[-Boooo! That's complete garbage!]

[-Didn't you blink as if you were really scared? That's right, you failed, you loser!]

Sometimes there is no precise standard for punishment. The production team and the MC only penalize the moment that seems to be the funniest.

Sometimes, the MC himself was attacked.

So yes it was funny.

To some extent, even for Hannah, who sometimes only watches clips on WeTube, the MC's laughter was as vivid as if it was painted.

TL/N: "그린 듯이" (As if it was painted) means "as if it was uninteresting" or "boring." In other words, he pretended to laugh.

'That's why it's an itchy program.'

In any case, it was not suitable for those who had the image of maintaining dignity to some extent.

As a result, TeSTAR fans in the U.S. also complained and the production team tried to make fun of that.

"Your company spoke to us "first" and said it would be an honor for them to introduce themselves in person. 🙄"

Later, even the MC joined them.

"Cool and friendly Asian guys.... Cheer up 😎"

It was a disaster.

'They literally almost got into a fight.'

The stubborn, conservative and somewhat vulgar MC waged a fierce war of nerves with the KPOP fandom.

However, the scary thing is that when filming began, all comments from the production team were cut off.

'I guess TeSTAR did a good job. That o.....'

...Or they screwed them up miserably.

To the point that "that" MC, whose jokes always went over the line, kept his mouth shut.

"Hmmmm."

Hannah took a deep breath and went back to watching TV.

The artist who jumped out of the coffin was filmed running away as if he were a unicorn, pants off and leaving a glittering rainbow in his wake.

[-Loser~~]

[-The actor Antonio Soltre is a cute cowardly pony or teddy bear!]

"....."

I was hoping that TeSTAR won't suffer such a hopeless situation.

Still, the segment of the show where TeSTAR will appear this time was fortunately a part where singers usually appear.

[-We're continuing with...Our own street karaoke!]

It's the 'street karaoke' segment.

[Several masterpieces carefully selected by the production team, which have been arranged in different versions, will be played!]

[-Will these artists be able to adequately demonstrate these masterpieces?]

At first glance, you might think it looks quite professional rather than an absurd challenge, but...

It's an illusion.

Soon the young lady will realize that these arrangements are a ridiculous joke.

Besides, it's all on the fly, and naturally it was up to the production team to decide if the artist performed it correctly.

'Ugh.'

Since the contestants are singers by trade, it will amuse those who watch them, while those who undergo the challenge will find it somewhat appalling.

Also, the penalty this time is terrible.

[-Today's punishment is...Food cannon!]

[-We have carefully prepared only the most popular food on social media! It doesn't even feel like a penalty, does it]

POK!

"Uuuugh!"

She watched as the smashed burgers exploded like bombs and hit the faces of the bewildered cast.

It was embarrassing that she almost laughed.

"That's...that's a real disgrace!"

Isn't that what you see when someone gets bullied in school?

But the segment began at a brisk pace.

[-The first song is~ "Counting ma green!"]

It was meant to be a strong, dark hip-hop song.

However, it's arranged like an amusement park march with exaggerated pronunciation that you can't understand.

[-Ohohohoho! So cute and charming~]

[-Nananananana, nananananana~]

POK.

POK.

POPOPOPO POK.

To the sound of joyful trumpets, cannon shots shot people in the face.

It was a spectacle.

"Puju!"

One person is hit for being distracted for too long. Another person tried to sing a verse, but was slow to keep up and failed.

There were those who sang a few lines properly and were full of hope, but then got food slapped in the face.

[Cast: What the fuck is this...?]

POK!

[-For making a bad gesture!]

"Pujujujuju!"

She gritted her teeth and laughed. It was a raw laugh because she couldn't help but laugh.

"Oh, please! Argh!"

The problem was that two or three songs went by and so far TeSTAR didn't appear.

Even if it had only been for a second, she would have recognized them. How could she miss the intense scene of them being beaten with a cannon for food?

'No way...Did they edit them out?'

TL/N: In this case, Hannah thinks they could have edited the footage to remove their scenes so they don't appear.

Fortunately or unfortunately, they didn't.

This is because TeSTAR didn't appear after more than 10 minutes and an ad placed between segments passed.

Seven young men stood in the street as did other cast members.

They attracted some attention.

[Yes. Because they are cast members of "Cosmic Gunner," we treat them with preference. They are close to the director. Did you know that?]

With the MC's crazy narration, the first song, a brilliant march, appears again.

"Aaah..."

From now on, TeSTAR will be splendidly beaten with food.

With that thought in mind, Hannah cringed and continued watching TV.

Cha YooJin, who was staring at the fixed microphone in front of the camera with his hands stuffed in his jacket pockets with a disinterested face, smiled.

And immediately took the beginning of the walk and walked in.

[Cast: NANA, NANA, NANANNANNNNNNA!]

"Oh."

And TeSTAR started walking to the beat. Parade-style dance steps.

Then, naturally, they follow the song while checking the lyrics under the camera.

Their faces had a bright capitalist smile unique to the amusement park staff.

[Cast: I like the taste of money~ I can't stand it, I'll keep it~]

The lyrics that talked about money with a refreshing smile and the amusement park's accompaniment were surprisingly harmonized and funny.

"Hahahahaha!"

And in their own way, they make plausible parade gestures one by one, and admirably take turns to all sing the first verse!

[-Yes~ Whatever. Lucky kids.]

The sound of the audience's laughter was inserted behind the voice of the MC, who had failed to deliver the punishment, so it was even funnier.

But TeSTAR's part didn't end there.

[-Next song!]

Next up, a song by a smoothly flowing, hip R&B band...

It was arranged as heavy metal with an extreme high pitch.

"Uuugh."

How many people couldn't even start singing because of this drastic change and were hit by food in the face?

But this time, Park MoonDae, a member with white hair, casually brings his head close to the microphone in front of the camera.

And as he opens his mouth...

[-YEAAAAAAAAAAAAH!]

"...!!"

He shouted.

His expression didn't change, but he brought out those high notes.

His neck was red and his veins were bristling, but because of his expressionless face and the shocking high notes, they were not adequate enough to notice.

And after that, the other members naturally shook their heads violently.

OOOOOOH!

They were shaking their jackets somewhat exaggeratedly, so it looked better. The sound of the audience inserted into the screen shouts and cheers.

[-...Again?]

[-Yeah, well, he's an amazing singer. I can clap too. Jjak, jjak, jjak. Did you hear that?]

The audience burst into laughter again.

But soon, the MC's weak voice regained its strength.

[-So, the next song that should come out? As you all know, it's so much fun to see when they mess it up at the end!]

"Eeeh?"

And a new musical accompaniment began to appear that had never appeared before.

From the latest disco song with a pop beat that's currently on the Billboard chart...

But it had a ballet arrangement.

"Puup!"

Hannah spit out her drink.

[-Haha! Have you guys heard of Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker?]

Ttiring~

This...this can't come out.

The bright sound of the celesta resounded and the chorus began.

She didn't even know where the song would start.

'The ballet is a musical piece! It doesn't have a singing part!'

It was ridiculously funny, but it was because TeSTAR had no hole to escape through!

[-Haha!]

However, one of the TeSTAR members slipped forward.

A beautiful young man with neatly combed black hair.

He stood cross-legged casually, then gracefully lifted one leg and spun around.

"...!!"

[-What?!]

It was a "Fouetté."

And at that moment, the six people in the back exchanged glances and began humming.

A composition that properly followed the main melody and accompaniment.

They did it a capella.

[-...Oh, Lord.]

"My God."

And they found the intro with the accompaniment at the right time!

[Cast: I can take you to the night sky~]

The audience cheers on screen.

The twists are always fun.

After doing all these crazy things, they even get applause from passersby on the street.

[-Why are they applauding?]

[-What is this...Wait, they planned this, didn't they? Did they get paid?]

The audience burst into laughter again as the words of the MC, who was suddenly caught by a surprise camera, sounded angry.

Cha YooJin, who was high-fiving quietly, smiles and nods.

[Cast: I got paid.]

[-No!!! I mean, you guys...Aaagh! You're driving me crazy!]

"Hahaha!"

In line with Hannah's laughter, the microphone in front of the camera shakes as if angry.

[-This...it's true! It's practically a failure!]

[-It's not good that they're too good, is it].

The TeSTAR members looked at each other and smiled slightly. And the white-haired young man calmly replied.

[Cast: No, I don't know.]

[-It's a failure because it's not funny, and this is a comedy show!!!]

[Cast: Hmm.]

Then, instead of continuing the sketch by responding, TeSTAR nods as he exchanges glances once again.

'What?'

Then, Cha YooJin opened her mouth.

[Cast: OK. Hit us all, shoot.]

"...!!"

POK!

And indeed, the food cannon was fired.

Not once, but several times. In everyone's face.


POK, POPOPOK, POPOPOPOK!

"AAAAAH!"

Hannah watched open-mouthed.

TeSTAR's appearance became as miserable as that of the previous performers.

[Cast: Aww, no.]

Cha YooJin, who had bolognese sauce dripping down his forehead, wiped it off with his finger.

Then he smiled.

[Cast: Delicious.]

[-My God.]

[Cast: We showed up because it seemed like the most fun. It's a really amazing experience.]

[-Please get out of here. Hurry up.]

[Cast: Sure. Have a good night, everybody.]

[Cast: Good night~]

The members smiled, wiped their faces with a cloth or their hands and walked quietly out of the chamber.

They let it go.

'Wow.....'

They are not humble at all, they are full of confidence and self-assured, but they are not unlucky.

They were all the conditions this audience expected from the performers.

Individuality! ability! star potential!

Besides, doesn't it fit perfectly with the image of the band in "Cosmic Gunner?" They were almost themselves!

[-What...What.....? Let's play with each other! That's no fun!]

And the screen ended with the remaining cast members unable to follow the ballet arrangement and receiving the restaurant's food cannon.

But everyone watching knew that. The ending is actually the scene where the group was leaving.

"Wooow."

Literally, if they wanted to make a good impression, it was a big hit.

And sure enough, as soon as the broadcast ended, a new post was uploaded to the MC's account.

========================

[I swear on my own house, but it wasn't doctored. What a crazy band. #HelpMe]

========================

"WOOOOW!"

It was a declaration of surrender.

'It's crazy!'

Without realizing it, she sought out not only KPOP accounts, but also everyone who watched today's show to pour comments on their accounts.

At the same time, she thought.

'They're like this now, but they're going to come back to Korea in a cool way, right?'

Yes, if it's Cha YooJin, he would be a person who would remain acting like this.

Then, his group would do it too!

* * *

We're throwing a guy in the air like crazy.

Who is it?

"SEON AHHYUN! SEON AHHYUN!"

"OOOHHH!!!"

"Seon Ahhyun did it all! Seon Ahhyun did it all!"

Of course it's Seon AhHyun! This guy did an improv that he didn't even plan!

I'll be honest. We cheated a little bit.

I had already organized all the candidate songs for these guys to learn and studied the expected responses.

That's what I've always done since "Icorpo."

The long-lived segment, which has been done over 100 times, was full of references, but the question of which songs would come up was answered immediately.

'These bastards use half of the most recent popular songs and half of the popular songs from 10 years ago.'

I thought they would have arranged the range to choose a song if they didn't want the song to be repeated because they have been doing the program for so long.

And the arrangement is also answered by statistics.

1. Order of frequency of use of the arrangements in the program during the last three years.

2. Predominance of arrangements of newly released songs in the last year.

3. Exclusion of arrangements used in the last 3 episodes.

After pulling out the pattern of the songs and their arrangements, it was quick and easy.

"Is this funny?"

"It's not funny!"

"Okay, so they're not going to use a country style arrangement. Next."

It's because we just need his S+ talent to check according to his native sensibility to find the possible arrangements.

'That way, we cover more than half.'

Then, under Kim RaeBin's leadership, we had already selected all the expected arrangements, and after deciding who would share the lead role for each song, we showed up.

By the way.

'Where are the crazy people who thought of putting on ballet!'

We had assumed that they would put on an opera, but little did we know that these shitty bastards would put on a piece of music that they didn't even sing.

However, it became a jackpot because Seon AhHyun did a real ballet and made a shocking hit.

'If it wasn't for this guy, we really would have been screwed.'

It was significant to successfully pass each song of the challenge with a clear concept.

If we made a bad move, we would have gone through embarrassment, but after being able to prevent an embarrassing situation, everyone made a fuss when we made the best move.

"No, but how did it happen? AhHyun, you said you transferred to the modern dance major, but how could you do that out of nowhere there?"

"A-before, yes, I prepared it for a performance in high school?"

"It's amazing that you remembered that and blew us away! It's amazing!"

"No...I-it's because I'm used to this kind of thing... ....."

I won't accept any excuses.

Anyway, when it was time for us to move, Seon AhHyun looked down at the floor with a reddened face while receiving applause.

"That..."

But even in the middle of that, he doesn't tell me what he wants.

'Hmm.'

His face showing anticipation is similar to when he hit the nail on the head when we were making the album concept.

I get it.

'He wants to hear my story.'

After doing that, he seems to have judged himself that he showed enough ability to listen to the story that only Keun SeJin and I had conversed before.

And indeed, his skill ratings are not a problem, but it is true that this guy has found too many witticisms.

It's hard to put it off any longer.

I looked at Keun SeJin again. He nods his head as well.

In that case...

Okay. Shit. I'll open my mouth!

By the way, it was a stupid idea, I felt like a real idiot.
