126 – Appearance of a popular idol (2)
Shock Entertainment headquarters.
Choreography practice room.
Chaerin, sitting on the sofa, made a subtle expression.
“The participants this time are boys.”
“Why is that?”
Unsurprisingly, the participants in Season 4 of Were men.
It’s the national rule of survival programs.
Taking pictures with men and women swapped.
The talent pool is also limited.
“So?”
In the end, unlike the members who tried to stick to the confirmed schedule, Chaerin looked uncomfortable.
“You’re not getting involved with the contestants for no reason, are you? I heard that our company’s trainees are also participating this time.”
Ordinarily, Chaerin would have said that because the contestants were men.
[Exclusive] Radianz So-yeon ❤️ Inus Two, dating “Respect for privacy”
So-yeon So-yeon of the group Radians and Inus member Two are in a relationship.
As a result of Asia Ten coverage on the 2nd, So-yeon So-yeon and Tuga met…
They are a couple of the same age born in 2004, and this is the first dating rumor among 4th generation idols.
So Ah-yeon and Two recently revealed their relationship through SNS posts. They overlapped repeatedly, visiting the same places and wearing the same clothes, and fans began to doubt their relationship.
.

The director of Inus’ agency said, “We respect personal privacy.”
-Rookies are a bit… Even if I’m free to date, I’ll still be avoided by other members, so I’ll just have to be patient.
-It’s been a while since I debuted… There are kids who don’t listen even when I tell them not to show off like that.
-If you date, you’re dating, right?
-But don’t show it…
-I admit this.
-No man will come to you if you say, “Tomorrow is Osaka, the day after tomorrow is Tokyo, please come.” Whether it’s a boyfriend, husband, or father, there is no such man. The only people who can accommodate that kind of arbitrary behavior are fans. So love must be hidden. It reminds me of the Japanese MC’s famous saying, “That’s loyalty to the fans.”
I felt worried because there was a recent case of a girl group whose comeback album sales were cut in half due to one member’s dating rumor.
Of course, it is not a crime for idols to be in relationships.
You can do it.
I am willing to respect Seo-yoon if she says she is dating right now.

But if it’s the Seo-yoon sister I’ve seen, she’ll give up on her love life regardless of her personal feelings.
Because he is someone who considers the harm it will cause to the group and its members.
‘In other words, if a rookie is dating… He or she is immature and has no respect for the members. Apart from the fans.’
It’s not for nothing that the agency sets a dating ban period of 3 years after debut.
After that period, you won’t be swayed by dating rumors.
‘Even in this case, it was revealed that a rookie was in a relationship that he was told not to do.’
I just feel sorry for the members of the Radianz girl group.
Idols are loved by fans.
To put it a little bluntly.
Because it was fundamentally targeting quasi-romantic feelings.
Like me, you need to put aside your personal feelings for a while, such as trying to force yourself to be cute.
“The participants’ idol, Yeeun… hehehe.”
Ugh…
“Sister, you can’t do that even if you go out, okay?”
The reason idols with artist disease fail is also the same.
The moment she thinks of herself as an artist, she tries to prioritize her personal feelings.
“Huh…?”
In that sense, Ye-eun shows signs of suffering from celebrity disease or artist disease.
She has a very introverted personality, so I don’t think there’s any need to worry.
I guess he only does that in front of members he feels comfortable with.
“Anyway, Chaerin won’t have anything to worry about.”
Harang nodded her head as if she agreed with what I said.
“Okay, what are you worried about?”
Harang also seemed confident that she would not get involved with the male contestants.
Because Harang is not an idiot.
If you look at her command of language, you can say she is smart.
Speaking interestingly is also an ability.
“But if you’re good-looking, maybe it’s okay to get involved…?”
It’s because there isn’t too much filtering.
“More than anything, there would be no reason to buy away our brand value from Mwave.”
Saven, how much profit are we making right now?
Are you going to kill the goose that lays the golden egg just to see if season 4 goes well?
No matter how crazy the broadcasting station kids are with provocative things, there’s no way they’ll cut me off.
“Instead, only the participants will be edited out. ‘Contestants who are mesmerized by the appearance of popular idols’, ‘Contestants who are distracted by the Saven members and cannot concentrate on practice’, etc.”
Because it is Mwave-style editing that is clearly visible to anyone.
“Well, you still know, right? Everyone has to be careful. You don’t know what will happen to people, right?”
Hana came to a conclusion and stood up from her seat.
And she clapped loudly.
Party
“Now, break time is over! Everyone, wake up! We have to do our best!”
“Okay, I need to practice.”
I also jumped up from the practice room sofa and went to the center of the practice room.
And the mirror that fills the entire front reflecting me.
“I’m worried.”
“What?”
My reflection in the mirror.
The only makeup I used was red lip balm applied only to the corners of my mouth, without any powder.
Oversized white tee with room to spare.
Comfortable attachment training pants.
“Even if it’s so plain… The eyes automatically follow…”
I will also go to the shop on the day of filming.
I will even wear the pretty clothes that the coordinator picked out for me.
“If I dress up, the contestants’ eyes will definitely turn away… What if I get criticized because of me…?”
Kim Seo-yoon finished stretching as if she was used to it.
“Hana, where should we start?”
“Starting with the Sabi part. I didn’t get the point earlier. The formation doesn’t fit. Guys, get the point on going right and going left. Harang, get up quickly too.”
“Yes~”
The members no longer respond.
“So cute…”
Except for one person.
“Eunsera, she keeps doing that because you always accept her.”
“I don’t know… It’s cute…”
“Ha… They can’t debut because of me. I really don’t want that…”
Shouldn’t we at least wear a mask?
I’m really worried.

“Wow… It’s been a long time since I came…!”
Ye-eun looks excited.
A huge filming set where the ranking announcement ceremony was held every time.
The exterior of the building I saw after half a year felt different.
I feel overwhelmed.
“Seo Yoon-soo, don’t the memories of our first day come to mind?”
“Naji. You thought of appearing without makeup on the first recording.”
“Oh my.”
Now that I think about it, I thought it was really amazing that I thought of going without makeup because I don’t know how to put on makeup.
“What are you saying? What would you do if you weren’t there with me?”
Of course, I am confident even with my bare face.
“But you know how to do it to a certain extent now. Don’t you feel proud?”
I practiced by asking makeup artists one by one.
I am someone who knows my shortcomings and works hard…
“Ugh. Let’s not talk.”
Of course, there were members whose memories of the first day were not glorified.
Like Sarah, who mumbles.
“I waited in the parking lot for 3 hours because it was the last turn… But I was bored because I was alone… I was also bored because I was alone in the first place seat… I was alone throughout the recording from lunch to the next morning…”
We entered the set, looking back on the memories of the first day.
The filming of Was in full swing.
Familiar staff members seen upon entering the set.
Camera director, sound director, lighting director, writers, and directing staff.
Most of the members were kind to the unknown trainees, so the members were happy to see them and approached the production crew to say hello.
“Ah, you’re here! Our Saben?”
However, there were also production staff who were not happy.
Main producer Lim Hyun-woong approaches, welcoming us in an unusually high tone.
“””Oh, hello!”””
One of the few staff members who made participants uncomfortable.
Actually, it’s strange that it’s comfortable. I made several victims through my evil plan.
“I knew Saben would do well!”
Right now, among our members, there was someone who received such editing.
The eliminated contestants did more.
It must be strange for someone like that to say hello to us as ‘our Saben’.
“You just have to follow the script.”
Main Producer Lim Hyun-woong explained the rough direction prior to full-scale filming.
“The focus is on successful senior idols! Do you know what that is?”
It was written like this in the script.
He appears in front of the contestants with the title song “I’m in Love”.
Members read the cue sheet in order and explain and proceed with changes to the current season.
Afterwards, a word of encouragement is sent to each participant.
“I’ll be back in 20 minutes~”
A familiar voice heard while waiting.
“Oh my, Dohee! How did you get prettier there!?”
Producer Jihye Cheon.
She was the assistant director who I first met at the audition for .
“Hello, PD!”
I had a casual small talk with the PD, who was happy to see me, asking ‘how are you doing these days?’
And along the way, the PD makes a strange smile.
“Now that I think about it, there’s someone among the contestants that Dohee knows well~”
“Are you a participant?”
Now that I think about it, I heard that Top East male trainees will also appear.
“Oh, Top East trainees?”
We kept a reasonable distance, but our relationship wasn’t bad enough that we joked lightly when we met.
I wonder if there was something in common between the trainees.
“Ah, Top East! Of course, they are there too.”
However, the tone of voice of the assistant director and producer did not seem to refer to Top East trainees.
“You’ll find out when you go in. You’ll be completely surprised, right?”
“Hmm… But I’m not lying, I don’t have any close friends…”
“Ah, you don’t have to leave my sister out. Anyway, go in and have a look.”
And soon enough, it was time to shoot.
We received the cue sheet and entered standby.
“I’m going in now!”
At the signal, I lined up with the members and walked down the colorful hallway.
Different from season 3, the set is decorated in blue.
After passing the end of the hallway, the familiar ranking seats were finally unfolded.
“Huh… Saven..!!”
“Are you sure it’s amazing?”
Just like in Season 3, the male contestants sat in the rankings they wanted.
“Wow… I’m crazy.”
“It’s really pretty.”
Is it elastic that comes out naturally?
Or is it an excessive reaction to get one more shot caught on camera?
I can’t tell them apart, though.
ㅡWow!
Cheers filled the set.
ㅡIm in seventh heaven! Hello, this is Saven!
An indirect experience of becoming a celebrity.
My field of vision naturally narrowed due to the pleasant excitement and trepidation.
Nevertheless, he is a boy who stands out at a glance among the well-dressed male contestants.
“Hmph.”
Eyes that are strangely red.
When our eyes meet, he folds his eyes beautifully and smiles.
A pretty, feminine face that resembles Aunt Minha.
And yet, a face with distinct features.
‘What is that guy here?’
