Ye
Debut or Die - 383The day of filming <Wise>, LeTi's in-house survival program, is back.The atmosphere has changed a bit.'It's going to come out the roster of who might debut.'Just looking at the CEO's greeting before the shoot gives you a rough idea.-They're doing very well. Let's be more challenging.-Yes!Although I don't know how positive his criteria is.-JaeHyun-ah, be especially careful not to exceed the pace of your vocal practice.-I'll be careful.How specific it is.How much it matters to you.Those who started socializing early while they were trainees can definitely smell it.-Hey... Your piercing looks really cool today.-Thank you for your kind words!Thanks to this, the participants start talking to Kim RaeBin, who was sentenced to be the CEO's choice, saying, 'I think he'll fit in with this agency in every way'.'It's funny as the make-up and timing of this program is different from <Icorpo>.'As for me.-You're ready, aren't you? I'll see you on stage.-Yes.I got another compliment.The cameras are off before the preliminary elimination, but I can't say it too harshly. Thanks for letting me know I passed beforehand.-Let's start filming~This filming started by announcing that in the last evaluation, the winning group and the losing group were divided into upper and lower classes.-Hyuuu...-Thank you very much!It was a cross between joy and sadness.However, the most brutal content is scheduled for the next step.The announcement of the eliminated.They called the guy who was 'Out' of class and me to the podium.-As long as they are out of class, they can only survive if they did much better than the 14 selectees who are in class. And that person is...After skillfully letting the time pass, the CEO spoke with a firm face.-Ryu GunWoo.-.......-And no one else.The participant who lost to Kim RaeBin was eliminated.The atmosphere has cooled down, but the CEO doesn't seem to intend to warm it up with words of blessing.He also told me this.-The moment you are in an out-of-class position again, you can't avoid being eliminated. Do your best.It also means that if I go out of class, I will die.-I'll keep that in mind.I was welcome.Then it won't give me disadvantages to induce me to be out of the game. No matter how I look at it, the CEO doesn't seem to want to let me go.'It's a certification that the production team won't make alterations to the next performance mission.'Thank you very much.I bowed my head. As I did so, I checked the current headcount.Except for one guy who was eliminated by the boss in the previous round due to his bad attitude?'There are 15 people.'Since the number of people has increased, there will be another elimination in this performance.That's what he wants. He will have to select some people to generate tension.At the time when I thought that....-However, each event and performance has a maximum capacity... No more than 14 people.What?-Then, if any out-of-class member revives, one of members of the classes with the lowest achievements so far will be eliminated.Right now?And the CEO called several members of the lower class and laid out the advantages and disadvantages, and finally said this.-Participant Park JongHoon, from the <Lower Class>, is eliminated.-.......He suddenly announced an additional elimination.The person called by the shocking result staggered, and the other participants standing around fell silent.He is giving too much tension.-Please leave your seat now. Participant Ryu GunWoo can return to his position.-......Yes.That seems to be the reason why he sent the eliminated immediately without creating a warm atmosphere.He's trying to induce danger into the atmosphere.'It's because he's so amused by the subject.'Since he gained popularity because he was cruel, he must have been greedy to become even more brutal. That's not a very good thing.'In the end, even if it's not <Icorpo>, do survival programs follow this trend?'He schematically directs in a cruel way so that the kids go crazy and the program becomes interesting and fierce.'It's a little bitter... there's nothing wrong with it for me.'I waited for the kid to move away from his seat and then carefully approached the vacant seat in the lower class.The boys next to me are frozen and stiff with faces that are neither welcoming nor sad. I keep my mouth shut with a similar expression.'He's blocking out complaints.'And when I turned my head, all the guys I've been with before are in the debut group. ChaeYul and ShinOh also won.I nodded inwardly.'The composition is also good.'It's likely that in the interview segment I'll be asked questions like 'Didn't you mind being the only one who was positioned in the lower class?' It will be sweet to aggro the extra member once.-Thank you for your hard work.After the brutal rankings and the announcement of the eliminated participants, the stage lights went out. The microphone recording was also cut off.-I'm so glad, hyung.But the cameras were still filming, and the witty bastard immediately started to manage his image.It's CheongRyu.-Hyung!-You did a great job!I asked CheongRyu in a low voice, as I greeted the other guys who ran up to me as if I was happy to see them.-The process was quite brutal. You said it wasn't like that before.-I know. He's expressing himself in a way that's a little... more raw than before. His limit is very high.TL/N: '수위도 높고' (Very high limit) means that he cannot be easily restrained, i.e. his comments cannot be censored.
And he smiled and put his arms around me as if to encourage me.-People will like this, won't they?-.......In fact, I think along similar lines, but he is excellently skilled at talking nonsense.In any case, the production team also thought the participants were too tense, so the following content released the atmosphere a bit.The program switches to a slightly softer and more exciting tone, followed by an event to adjust the time.It's an event like the last time I did housework because I was 'out of class.'That time the others made a public service announcement? What will it be now?'It was a photo shoot for concept album photos.There are seven concepts.-Now~ discuss and choose the concept you want!Struggles, concessions and claims were mixed together. Since there are many people who already know each other, they pretended to be recommendations here and there.What about me?-Anything is fine with me. I could try them all, because I don't have any that I particularly like or dislike. They all look interesting and good.-Ooooh! If you say so, hyung....How many photo concepts has Park MoonDae of TeSTAR made so far? How could I be picky at this point?It doesn't matter what I get. If I grant them permission and they take a good photo of me, it will be enough.But...-That's right! -Press it so that your mouth can be seen a little more~-.......I... I didn't know the concept of the keyword 'Tooth' was 'vampire'.Who the heck is the idiot that put this kind of irrational concept into a survival program with participants who haven't even debuted yet? Now I understand why VTIC disintegrated on air in its first edition.TL/N: He means that they should not give this kind of forced concept to young people who are not yet famous. The reason is because to take good photos, you need experience and good acting, but doing such a concept could be treated as a mockery if you fail to get good photos. VTIC has the mysterious and dark atmosphere, so the 'vampire' concept would fit perfectly, but what if its members have bad photos with that concept in the past? They could be teased on their debut and that would affect the group members' pride and dedication to the group, another reason why CheongRyu decided to end his life after judging that he had failed.Still, I don't think it was bad because I had more time in front of the camera, and the reviews were very good.The interview was also well done.-They took pictures of me. It felt different because now I was the model. Still, looking back on my experience as a photographer... I did the best I could to get my picture taken.My goal was to point out that 'I'm a college student in the photography club'.Well, I think this will go down as a cool and refreshing story.It may seem a little obnoxious, but I can't say crazy things like, 'Haha, I got tired of photographing things like this', so I chose the next best thing to say.-I think all the photos will turn out great. Thank you all so much for your hard work, I really enjoyed today's session!-Waaaah!Anyway, after the event ended with some warmth restored... the performance mission hit hard that same night.'It's relentless.'-In <Wise>, this will be the 4th performance. I hope they can show us better performances. The theme will be.......Now, the participants were nervous as if they would get indigestion every time the CEO called them to the stage and announced the next round.-It's the <Position Battle>.-...!-Battle...?The big picture remains the same. It still hasn't deviated from the main process of the program I heard from CheongRyu.For example, the meaning of the battle of positions is this.-The following content is a group performance of a new song, and there will be a competition beforehand about which part to take on.And the positions to compete for were revealed on the electronic screen.[Vocal A, Vocal B][Dance A, Dance B, Dance C][Rap A, Rap B]The song was divided into 7 positions.And the boss suddenly called the upper class.-After seeing the photo shoot they did, an evaluation team held a secret ballot. The upper class has the right to choose their positions in the order they received the most votes first.-Aaaah...The first name chosen to be called was between the one with a contemplative look and the one with a bright expression.It was kind of obvious.-Shin JaeHyun.He humbly bowed his head once, stood up and moved immediately.[Dance A]Next is Cha YooJin.The members who were called one by one took the remaining positions one by one after much consideration.And seeing that everyone had chosen their positions, the CEO nodded and said:-Now, each of you will have the authority to set the stage for this battle of positions.-...!-It will be up to you which song to choose and which performance to perform.In a nutshell, it's 'Make a performance as you like'.And at this moment, the seven members of the lower class were arranged on the stage created by the upper class as if they were their challengers.-Try to steal the stage.Then, since the total number of people is still 14, don't you think we should compete one by one? No.-You can apply for any position of your choice, no matter how many applicants you have. But.No matter how many people apply... there will only be one winner.-Only one person who wins gets to perform the new song.The nervous participants look at each other as they look at their positions.'They haven't even given us details about the new song anyway.'In the end, who you compete with is the most important thing.Of course, here too, an order was followed according to the photo shoot voting.-The first contestant to choose a position in the lower class is... Ryu GunWoo.The first one to choose is me.'Oh.'What is it that my mind is admiring? It would be even stranger if the person who debuted five years ago couldn't beat those who haven't debuted yet.'If I couldn't do it, I would have to hit my head.'Instead, I bowed my head once and looked at the boss.-Please go out and choose a position.'Yes, I understand.'I quickly analyzed in my mind.'Generally, if you sort alphabetically, the criteria is...'Is it about quantity, difficulty and order of appearance?'But CheongRyu chose Dance... A.'So there is a slightly higher probability that the voices will have a lot of impact on the A side.'Still.'I moved without hesitation.And I stood up.-......!![Vocal B]There is no other reason.Isn't there a specific factor to consider in front of my eyes right now?'The competitor'.It's because the top class guy who sings better than everyone else here except me chose this.-The contestant Ryu GunWoo will compete with the honor class contestant Choi TaeJoon for <Vocal B>.Choi TaeJoon. When he debuted, his stage name was BiHan.How do I know it?'Because I sold data of him.'That's because he's the former lead vocalist of VTIC, who flew away due to the club scandal.After renewing his contract, he was involved in a case, but he was the lead vocalist of a top idol group for 7 years, so he's not an ordinary guy.But if I point to this guy....'He will definitely look challenging.'And if I beat him, that's where the narrative of survival contestant Ryu GunWoo will get more support.'It's time to move on to the second half of the program. I have to get back on track with the game.'I politely inclined my head towards the former lead vocalist of VTIC.-I look forward to it.-......Hmm, yeah.The guy who nodded his head bitterly...hmm, I'll call him mavo or club mavo. Anyway, he tried to smile.TL/N: Reminder that 'Mavo' is 'Main + vocal'. 'Club mavo' because he will never forget his scandal with the club.I stood next to him.And I saw the situation slowly progressing. The lower class members select their positions one by one.-I'll go with Vocal A...!It may be a no-brainer, but most aim for the positions left with only one member of the <Upper Class> despite being able to enter any position that has no quotas.'Everyone calculates probability.'However, there is one position that cannot be pointed to whether it is a suicidal act or not, even if there is only one person.-<Dance A> currently has no challengers.It's 'Dance A' with Shin JaeHyun.'They know their skills too well.'Since they are trainees from the same agency, they know each other well, so they are good at taking care of themselves because they have enough information....'Hmmm.'I saw Shin JaeHyun standing alone in front of the electronic position screen with no competitor.And this point is the difference with the program flow that CheongRyu had informed me beforehand.-That is the original format. One from the <Upper Class> and one from the <Lower Class>. It will be a one-on-one match.Originally, it was a one-on-one composition with no secondary victories.And no matter how much you think about it, even if some participant surrendered in a one-on-one battle, there is no way the opponent could get a default victory in this survival program.So there must be another factor.-But this time there are some variables, right?What could it be?-Obviously not. We have other competitors.-Aaah...-No way.-They are... the members of the Supplementary Class of Spectators.-...!!That's right. They picked up new contestants who arrived after seeing the announcement at the end of the program.Staring silently at the contestants who were reacting unnoticed, the Executive Director spoke as if sentenced.-Please come out.Pang!With a small firecracker sound, a significant BGM flowed and another electronic screen opened.'He's using them quickly.'Indeed, further delay would make the participants feel that the supplementary class is just a hindrance as their individual fandoms would be strong.I nodded inwardly and clasped my hands behind my back, pretending to listen to the Executive Director.-Don't think about the last supplementary class. These participants have been selected from a larger group of people, from across the nation, after fully confirming the rigor of this program.He's putting nice words on the number of people he hired in a week.Even if he talks like that, the likelihood of a really big guy coming in is infinitely low.'I'll check his stats and let it go.'I saw silhouettes appearing behind the steam from the dry ice, unimpressed.There are 7 of them, and none of them stand out in particular... Wait.-...!As the steam dissipates, the identities of the young men are revealed, and in the center is a familiar face I've seen for years.Recently we have been living together...[R-R-Ryu CheongWoo-nim!]Why are you here?I tried not to open my mouth... Wait, the camera's taking a close-up of me. These bastards.'No, shit.'What the hell is going on here?Ryu CheongWoo is smiling a little shyly. He looks uncomfortable because it's his first time on a stage like this.-The supplementary class members have a sign for the position they chose.I reflexively lowered my head.The position I had chosen beforehand is....[Vocal B]-.......It is the position for which I am also competing.[We're doomed.......]Calm down.
And he smiled and put his arms around me as if to encourage me.-People will like this, won't they?-.......In fact, I think along similar lines, but he is excellently skilled at talking nonsense.In any case, the production team also thought the participants were too tense, so the following content released the atmosphere a bit.The program switches to a slightly softer and more exciting tone, followed by an event to adjust the time.It's an event like the last time I did housework because I was 'out of class.'That time the others made a public service announcement?
