166. 2Nd album released!
Mr. Ash Block was a very busy person.
As he was scrolling through his phone, he slapped his forehead as if something troublesome had occurred.
A sigh that seems to be half air and half sound.
“Taemin.”
“Yes?”
“Can I have class at 10 o’clock tomorrow?”
“10 O’clock in the morning?”
“No? 10Pm. If it doesn’t work out, just postpone it to another day.”
“Uh…”
10 O’clock? 10Pm?
It’s not even a nighttime job at a convenience store, but classes start at 10 o’clock.
“So what time does it finish?”
“12 O’clock. I need to send it to you before the last train. Oh my god.”
After thinking briefly, I expressed my intention clearly to him.
“But then I think it will be difficult because I won’t be able to watch Luca’s broadcast.”
This is a force majeure for me too.
A teacher who bursts into laughter.
He looked at me as if I was dumbfounded and then nodded his head.
“Okay. Broadcasting is recognition. “I was short-thinking.”
“You’re not spinning, are you?”
“…I also don’t have classes on days when Leah’s broadcast is on?”
The reason I was able to bring up this story was possible because the teacher was also a huge fan of Closer.
If you don’t know or understand anything about this culture, how can you skip class just because you watch an internet broadcast?
“Then let’s do it during the day on Friday. Ugh. “To be honest, I get tired at 10pm.”
“Teacher, you said it wasn’t you, right?”
“It takes about 15 minutes to drive from here.”
“Hey. Then go and learn more today. When you have time. “I’ll just watch for 30 more minutes, so you can go home and review on your own.”
“Ah. Yes yes. Thank you.”
If you look at it this way, it may seem like we are teaching very hard, but our classes are half chatter. It was a class where half the class was in serious mode.
Usually, he took a song and opened it up to teach the basic framework, such as chord progressions and instrument composition, but the details added in between were too sweet to ignore.
The story of a female idol who was brought in to record but ended up being hungover and puking on the floor.
A story about receiving a large figure as a gift after working on an animation OST.
Related person. No, the stories that could never be told unless you were the composer who worked on the specific song were meant to be listened to without realizing how much time passed.
“Teacher.”
“Huh?”
Recently, after hearing a story about a person who misplaced a 0 and ended up losing a million won, I made a sincere offer.
“How about you broadcast too, teacher?”
“What! “Tell them to lintel!”
“Yes. “I think you’ll do really well.”
“Hey. “Is this the world where what you are telling me is right?”
“…Why me?”
I thought I wouldn’t be popular even if I broadcasted on the Internet because I’m not good at speaking.
“Honestly, if I had that face, I think all the active first-tier male cams would wear it, right?”
“…Ah. “You want me to do a male cam?”
“Why? “Did you tell me to buy an avatar, use a voice modulator, and become a pretty girl vertuber?”
It was a funny story.
That was because I knew that some of the cases the teacher mentioned actually existed.
“Oh my. I just don’t do it. “How can I broadcast with a personality like this?”
“Hey. On the contrary, the idiots like to spread the hikikomori concept vertuber because they think it’s cute.”
“…Anyway, I can’t do it. No. “I don’t.”
Not only is he not talented, but if he even broadcasts, when on earth will he ever see Do-ah?
“But what? “If you make a good song, the financial reward is very high, so why don’t you go home and do your homework?”
“Heh heh…”
Of course, it was just a baby step, but music was a subject very similar to mathematics.
There were clearly parts that needed to be memorized, like memorizing a formula, and when you substituted them in and entered them, the notes harmonized and created a wonderful melody.
“Inspection? Next time?”
“Yes. Thank you.”
I bowed my head and came out, took out my phone and checked the time.
“Wow. Wait for a sec.”
I need to go quickly, right?
Isn’t it? Should I just take a taxi?
There is a reason for this rush.
In normal times, I would have been able to just watch the broadcast on my phone, but not today.
It was the day that Closer’s 2nd album teaser came out.
I thought Doa would scold me if she heard this, but I immediately called a taxi using the app.
I boarded the vehicle and scanned the community’s reactions, saying, “Please hurry up.”
Even though there are still 30 minutes left, the regeneration speed of articles is running fast.
[Are you getting a big one?]
[A preview of Closer’s 2nd album.]
[Not a teaser, but the official music video release date]
What? Did it really become official?
“Oh… That bastard…”
As soon as I entered, I was bombarded with memes and cursed quietly to myself.
I broke out in a cold sweat once because the car was stuck near the Han River, but in the end I managed to get home on time.
I sat down in a reverent posture in front of the monitor without even changing my clothes.
[Hmm… Hmm…!]
Closer members turned on the broadcast in advance to watch the teaser with viewers.
Inside the screen, Luca was smiling brightly and communicating with viewers.
[Ah. I’m so nervous. Right? Ah. The expectations for this have risen too high. Everyone.]
From noble mtl dot com
But we also had something to say.
The performances shown by the Closer team so far are truly a feast of capital.
The quality of the virtual world created with money was exactly proportional to the amount, so I couldn’t help but have expectations.
Will the thrill I felt during Boundary continue this time?
Soon, the countdown began, and when I refreshed the official page on the YM official channel, the name [CLOSER] Was written in a very sophisticated font.
[Degas~]
[Kya!]
[Luka! I love you!]
Pingtuks are going crazy even though they haven’t even clicked on the video yet
I was also actively hitting the emoticon waving the light stick.
[Then… I’m leaving…?]
Avatar of a smiling Luca.
Luca, who even turned off his avatar to tell viewers to focus, held his breath and played the 30-second video as is.
The first thing that appeared along with the sound of shoes was an avatar with blonde hair.
It looks like Jennifer. That one.
As she opened the door and stepped inside, there were close-ups of the other members one by one.
This concept is about the members all wearing the same school uniform, probably because they are students.
Clover smiling faintly.
Humooring winking brightly.
Leah holding out her hand.
And the last 3 seconds captured the hearts of our Pingtuk group.
Pink hair catches the sunlight and shines even brighter.
Luca doesn’t show his eyes.
But everyone knew what the mouth shape of her silhouette avatar was trying to say.
[I love you]
The last group still cut from that scene.
Once the video ended with the English name Closer written again, the chat window was filled with cheers.
[Uh… How was it?]
Luca’s avatar appears again.
Her red face made people unable to stand it.
[aaah! I love you Luca-tan! Ahhh!]
[Thank you for donating 10,000 won~ Ah. The teaser video came out really well. The atmosphere is amazing. Flaw.]
Everyone was praising the atmosphere, but honestly, I felt a little disappointed.
Snow.
This was because there was no cut that showed Luca’s entire upper body.
Of course, it’s nice to come out at the end and act like a real heroine.
Ah… Wouldn’t it have been better if it snowed…
[hehehe. Everyone will like it more if the full version is officially released next week, right?]
It was a painful thing to say.
I’m dying of joy just looking at that 5 or 6 second version, but if the full version was released, not only Pingtukdan but the world would be in an uproar.
In fact, comments in English or Japanese are sometimes captured.
Maybe my girlfriend was turning into a real wolkeul.
[Ugh. That’s right. That’s right. Ah. Which member did you think was the best in this music video? Umm… I personally like Leah. Leah is getting very… ugh… soft. Yes.]
[Ah~ If this is weird, it’s a spoiler, so I’ll tell you later. Of course, Luca-tan is also cute~ It would be nice to wear the school uniform avatar shown in the teaser in front of everyone as soon as possible.]
I rest my chin on the desk and stare at the screen.
What on earth is this plate on the right corner of the monitor?
What on earth is it that makes it so cute?
This creature inhabiting the 2.5 Dimension possessed more than 10,000 people.
[Ah. Of course~ Everyone loves Pingtukdan, too, Luca~]
Luca smiles and speaks playfully.
The tone is much higher than the words you say to me that you love me.
I loved both versions so much that I couldn’t take my eyes off them.
Both Doa and Luca thought that their mere existence was so lovely.
I was wondering if the teaser review broadcast would go smoothly like that.
[Luka the lobster donated 5,000 won.]
[There is a rumor that Summer Records RKRO is Taemin Han. Is this true?]
Doa’s avatar blinked with a foolish face.
