#017. My Houses Kid Is Better (2)

If its the main vocalhes probably the best singer among the members. When I compared the members names by the position I had memorized a little while ago, I could immediately recognize who they were.

I listened in anticipation of the level of singing ability of the talented singers I had listened to.

I always smiled hoping for the place next to you-

But unexpectedlyit was very disappointing when the tune was not as good as I expected. 

Even after hearing a few words, the screen switched immediately.

Its as if they didnt want to show it for a long time on purpose.

They couldnt even sing this properly on set?

It was quickly passed on to the next participant, so the reaction of the audience couldnt be confirmed. But the participants who stayed in the corner without blurring never looked bright. 

Moreover, the result of the show was an overwhelming victory due to the number of points scored by viewers votes. Feeling puzzled, I searched for the name of the main vocalist. 

[Shim Naru [Search Result]]

[Appearance]

[Entertainment]

[Teenager Singer Star] [My Idol Stage] [Nine Flows Music] etc.

Teenage Singer Star was a singing audition show that was popular all over the country a few years ago.

At that time, everyone in Korea really liked Teenager Singer Star, and there was a lot of talk about the show everywhere.

I tried clicking on the article by moving the mouse a few more times. According to an interview, he didnt make it to the semifinals, but he was in the top 10. 

I guess the fans who supported him from then on helped him during the My Idol stage. 

And at that time, there seemed to be a controversy over his ability once.

Originally, hes not enough to make it to the top 10, but it seems like he rose with stardom or something.

Is it because he is a performer whose face has already been known through variety shows? Even after that, I could clearly feel that the camera continued to show Shim Naru often. 

They keep showing it to the point where it doesnt bother me.

It would be helpful to show your face wherever you can.

If that punk could cooperate, they would send him anywhere.

Ive never actually heard him sing. Looking at the music broadcast video that was conducted live, his skills were as good as those of most talented singers. His vocal stat was also the only S grade. 

It would be nice if there were an opportunity to properly wrap it up and let people know hes talented. I pursed my lips regretfully and decided to put it off until later.

I want to deliver a message of hope to many viewers with songs!

Shim Naru, on the screen, smiled, waving his hand at the fans below the stage.

Come to think of it, Im curious.

Son Seongwon, how did that kid end up being an idol?

No matter how much I look at it, it is unlikely that he would have chosen the path of an idol by his own will with that cooperation.

Each person has a goal or direction they want, so Ill have to check it out someday. There was nothing to be expected at the moment.

Well, I can ask later.

In addition, it was noticeable that each member adjusted their roles not to overlap.

This member is often sent out so that he can be active mainly in variety shows. And another member deliberately focused on the microphone when he had a chance to say something.

It seemed good to me that each person emphasized their own roles and shared them.

Of course, I dont know whats going on behind that.

Lets stop watching My Idol Stage and move on to collecting item references.

From My Idol stage clips to Flosss debut video. After skimming through dozens of them, I decided to move on to the next subject.

Because its June nowif we started gearing up for a comeback three or four months early from now on, it would be September at the earliest or November at the latest.

Its too late for summer, too early for winter.

Then, it was better to come up with a concept that would work safely in autumn or follow a route that doesnt take much of the season.

I think summer is definitely easier to set a concept and show a more colorful side.

Even if we had to look at the progress in August, it was too early. I drew a refreshing and bright image in my head for a while, then erased it all. 

Lets take a look at what concepts other popular idols came out within the fall. 

The most important thing when planning a new product was not a new and original idea. 

The original taste is scarier.

I like to go a little further than weve tried once because it was easy to fail if I put out something completely new. 

It was safer to properly digest the previously popular concept and interpret it with our members colors.

FirstThe most popular male idol group right now seems to be Floss. Other than that, Day After andHow do I read this?

P2CK? When I searched, it seemed to read peak.

I targeted a few popular groups and looked for activities from September to November last year.

I didnt have an item that I wanted to be like this yet, but I got an outline little by little. It shouldnt be too bright, and it shouldnt be too dark, either.

Basically, Climax was a performance group that featured dance. It was necessary to choose a concept that was good for dancing. 

After excluding this and that, the remaining items were drastically reduced.

Lets check the one from two years ago.

Two years was enough time for the trend to change, but there was nothing wrong with collecting various references.

After finally summarizing and organizing about three or four, the time had already passed.

Should I go back? 

After sitting and staring at the monitor screen for hours, my shoulders were stiff.

After eating I should warm up before washing up and go to bed.

I stretched all the way, did some simple stretching, and headed to the parking lot.

There were still a lot of things I still needed to learn about the idol world. However, I approached it from the perspective of planning a new product, so there was nothing he couldnt do.

What people have already experienced, in a way that will not be objectionable, adds only a little bit of my originality.

As long as this formula was followed, there was no way to fail. It will be like that this time, and it must be like that again. 

What else should I do for dinner.

I was driving back to the dorm from the parking lot, but my mind was elsewhere the whole time.

From dinner right now to the first meeting a week from now, and eventually to activities.

When my head was complicated, I had to quickly put something in my mouth to get rid of the random thoughts.

There is nothing good about worrying too much. Only my hair falls out quickly.

Hmm! After taking a deep breath, I got out of the car and entered the dorm. Sunwoo, who had just finished exercising, greeted me.

Water dripped from the ends of his black hair that clung to his head.

Yise Hyung, youre back? 

Even though he was wearing a simple short-sleeved shirt and shorts, his lines were better than when I first saw him.

I, is there something on me? 

As I slowly scanned him from head to toe, Sunwoo seemed a little embarrassed.

No. I feel like youve lost weight.

!

Sunwoos face instantly turned red at the unintentional compliment. 

I worked really hard today too! PT Ssaem said that if I do this, I will be able to change the first digit one more time within this month!

UhmIm afraid thats a little too much to wish for.

Well, if short-term goals motivate him, it was good anyway. 

So be careful about eating so that it doesnt come, and cheer up a little more. 

I tried to stroke his hair like a child out of habit, but I stopped. Ive already stroked it a few times, but.

I thought the difference in age was like the age of a son, but Sunwoo and Cheon Yise were only 3 years apart. 

In some cases, it could be seen as unpleasant.

.? 

When I returned my hand, Sunwoo, who had been slightly lowering his head, looked up at me.

Why, what, why.

When I answered bluntly, Sunwoo mumbled regretfully.

I was wondering if you wouldnt stroke me. 

Are you a child? 

When I stroked his black hair, I gave him a weak scolding, and my palm was wet with water.

Im preparing dinner, so hurry up and dry your hair.

I wiped my wet hand on the towel Sunwoo was putting on his neck before heading to the kitchen.

Sunwoos powerful reply came from behind.

Ung!

 * * *

Fortunately, the dinner was peaceful, perhaps because Yejun was away.

Sunwoo complained as if he was disappointed at the salad table following lunch, but he became quiet due to Seongwons sarcastic remarks.

I dont know if I should say thank you for this or not.

There were many things I wanted to ask as soon as I had a chance to talk with Seongwon alone.

From why he wanted to become an idol to what he really wants to do right now. I need to know what hes thinking to decide whether or not to entrust him as the center.

I dont know if he knows Im thinking about that, but as soon as Seongwon finished his meal, he locked the door and locked himself in his room.

SeriouslyHes not a 14-year-old middle school student.

I dont really like the crowded atmosphere. But wouldnt it be a little lonely to lock the door alone like that?

While looking at the visit for a while, Yejun returned home, and a commotion broke out.

Ill go out around lunchtime tomorrow too and come back around the same time as today!

Why is he looks so powerful? It seems strangely bitterYejun gave off a fishy smell and smiled broadly.

Are you going to see your friend again?

Huh? Ung.

Yejun gave a vague answer and went into the bathroom.

I think hes hiding something.

When we first met, it was the same way, and I already knew that he was receiving love calls from all over without the other members knowing.

Isnt this punk preparing to stand out before the contract period ends?

It was a highly probable suspicion.

No way. It would be a really big deal if there were more departures from the current members.

Feeling anxious, I kept staring at the bathroom door without realizing it.

Hyung? 

Sunwoo, who was sitting across from my bed through the gap in the open door, tilted his head and called me.

Its nothing. 

It would be nice if it was really nothingand since I dont have a very urgent schedule right now.

Ill have to secretly follow him tomorrow.

With that in mind, I entered the room as well.

Lets do a simple stretch before going to bed.

I started nagging Sunwoo to get rid of my nervousness.

Oh? Yes! 

Sunwoo, who had been caught, followed me without complaining, which made me feel better.

ReallyIt would be nice if everyone could do just this much Thats what I think for a while. 

I could see the belly fat that was still firmly attached.

Uhm Nevermind.

After the night. The next day came quickly.

Im going out today because I have work to do.

Huh? Yise Hyung, where are you going?

Sunwoo, who was eating lunch with a happy expression, asked.

Yes, I might be late. I put dinner in the refrigerator, so dont eat snacks.

That punk Oh Yejun, it was time to check what the hell he was doing outside.
