Backstage (5)
‘Everyone already knew this…’
Lee Joon-seo slowly looked over the staff at the set. The director, assistant director, and writer knew about Yoon Jae-yi’s plan.
From noble mtl dot com.
Maybe the staff who misunderstood why Yunjae was territorial are in the back of his heart? There was a heart to do. After seeing Lee Jun-seo’s acting changed, the misunderstanding was resolved.
‘Come to think of it, that hyung didn’t ignore me at all…’
He glanced at Yoonjae, who was talking to the director.
I didn’t just bully them, but I treated them in a businesslike way. He even helped him when he really needed it… Rather, Yoon Jae-yi isolated himself because of the subtle air flow with Lee Jun-seo.
Lee Jun-seo’s group, I&B, was famous worldwide, so everyone liked him.
From the beginning, there were only people who were friendly or approached to be friendly with, but Yunjae was consistent with the attitude of ‘So what are you?’ So, there was a sense of coercion.
Are you going to keep ignoring me when I do this? There was also a misconception called.
“Hyung, can you stop now?”
“what?”
Yoon Do-jun, who saw through Lee Jun-seo’s feelings, became more and more annoyed.
“It’s my brother. How long are you going to make me apologize?”
“It’s fun that you’re doing this, how do you stop?”
“What, what?!”
Lee Jun-seo, who ran away from Yoon Do-jun, thought.
‘Um… should I stop now?’
Thanks to Yoon Jae, I was able to fully understand Seo Ji-hoo. The smoke gradually rose.
[Junseo, did you act this well? I really saw it again.]
[If there is a project you want to do in the future, please tell me.]
The manager of the agency who came to see his acting was also surprised and praised him. Director Lee was unsure of his acting challenge, and he was a person who did not show much interest.
-Lee Joon-seo Looking forward to acting in the future
-I’m a person in the industry, but Junseo is already discussing the next project!
Thanks to you, I gained a lot. Lee Jun-seo, who was looking for Yoon-J while looking around, found Yoon-J covering his mouth in the corner. It was a very different atmosphere than usual.
‘huh?’
Where is your brother sick?
***
– You’re right, who wants to see something like this and goes through a lot of trouble?
-At the same time, the angry CEO is s*xy hehehe
-If you live in self-pity, you will only lose yourself in the end.
After Seo Gun-woo left, Seo Ji-hoo received a message from him.
(Hyung) Go out with the card I gave you and talk to the kids
Icarus, who headed to the carriage, where there were not many customers, did not say anything even though food and alcohol were served. Of course, my smartphone was taken away, so I couldn’t turn my attention to other things.
– Hey guys, let’s talk.
-But what about the guy in the back seat?
-I’m suffocating
Seo Ji-hoo was the first to speak after looking at each other like that.
“Do you remember when we first met?”
He remembered his dreamy days as a trainee. Back then, they weren’t so dynamic. Everyone has been running with the goal of debuting. Even after their debut, there was hope that they would do well together.
But how did this happen? While eating the cheapest side dishes and alcohol at a cheap bar, he is starting his engine while lamenting his life. On the TV hanging on the wall, the stage of already successful idols was in full swing.
“not really.”
“I remember. Yunjae Kim, you thought I was your older brother and you used honorific words for three months.”
“madam.”
“I remember. Why didn’t you ask my age? Are you shy because you’re a country boy?”
“Is it because you are presbyopic?”
Yunjae Kim was embarrassed and tousled my hair.
“Then you frowned at not being able to practice. lying down on the floor What kind of drink did I drink then?”
“madam.”
“Chanoa, why are you splitting? Even before you…”
“Ha really. Stop talking!”
Suddenly, it became a battle of dark history with each other. Seo Ji-hoo burst into laughter in the middle of the bickering Icarus.
“It was fun. It was fun.”
“…”
“Didn’t you?”
Still, the memories of being together remain. The expressions of the other members were also released.
“I, too, am I not that affectionate towards the group?”
It was Chanoa who said that. He has a lot of ambition, and he started his solo activities first, and while doing individual activities like that, he steadfastly put the group name in front of him and introduced himself.
“In the first place, the group name was a problem. What is Icarus?”
In mythology, Icarus swam freely like a bird and fell as he approached the sun.
Is it wrong to dare to include the sky? Was it wrong to dare to dream? They became the same as the name of the group that dared to dream and then crashed and fell into the sea.
“I’m actually…”
Lee Tae-in continued. The reason why his fan service was not good was because he was s*xually harassed by a fan at his first fan signing event. The other members who learned the truth were shocked.
“Why are you saying that now?”
“I said At that time, to the manager hyung and the manager. But I told you to be patient…”
The company did not protect him. That left me with a trauma, and my body stiffened when I stood in front of the fans.
Soon, their past comes out. Children who have come to Seoul for their dreams since childhood. A contract signed without knowing it. Extreme diet control, missing school classes and field trips to prepare for debut.
Their school days and youth never come back.
“I didn’t want to live like this either.”
“okay. I also wanted to do well.”
Kim Yun-jae and Lim Do-yoon lamented. They were good in the past. He was tempted to come to his company here and there, but he stayed for the members he loved and became Ikaros.
“Now what do we do? Can I get a job without going to college?”
“I’ve got a warrant out… the only thing I’d like to postpone is graduate school, so at what age…”
“Hey, you won.”
“Would you like to win with something like this? And, if I come out, you will come soon too?”
“ha······.”
It looks pitiful to anyone who sees him whimpering and talking. Real-time reactions to him also exploded.
-Starting today, Im Do-yoon will be embraced
-You bastard Kim Yoon-jae? who said that? Are you my baby?
– No, Taein had a story like that??? Are you crazy???
-I can understand the feelings of the kids.
– ㄹㅇ If you give up everything everyone else is doing and walk only one path and fail, you won’t get frustrated.
-That’s why there are more gold spoons among idols these days. Because it’s a big risk.
The drama gradually went viral, and fans attached to it, just like real-life idol fans. Even Lim Do-yoon and Kim Yun-jae, who had built up an unfavorable image throughout the drama, got a good response.
“Are you done talking?”
“100 million! It’s a surprise!”
When Seo Gun-woo’s voice was suddenly heard, the members who were sobbing shook their shoulders. Seo Geon-wu came early and sat right in the back seat.
– When was the billion crazy representative?
-Who didn’t tell the man in the suit earlier? It’s a real cornea
Seo Geon-wu slipped into a cramped seat. He was gloomy, but he still opened up his mind and looked at the members who looked relieved one by one.
“The group name, yes. It was wrong. But do you know what happened to Icarus in the myth after he fell?”
“······What is it?”
“The sea where Icarus crashed got his name.”
name is left The name they wanted to imprint on the public as an idol.
“The sea means disaster, death, and exile, but it also means healing, regeneration, and resurrection.”
“…”
“Finish well, you too, dream a new dream.”
“Can I?”
“If you put your mind to it.”
***
Now that the conflict has been resolved, all that remains is the future as much as the hope they hold back.
In the past, the agency of Ikaros did not support Ikaros’s subsequent activities after his debut was less responsive than expected.
However, it was thanks to Seo Ji-hoo’s producing that the album was able to be released steadily. The agency was also in a state of ‘Okay, I’ll give you the album’ because all I had to do was put a spoon on what he had prepared with all his might.
(A midday talk show, today’s guest – Ikaros)
(NEXT COMEBACK STAGE – Ikaros)
The opportunities that Seo Geon-woo obtained through threats, conciliation, and tricks quickly became effective.
-Who is the idol who just appeared on a variety show?
– They say it will be their 7th year soon. I love the song when I hear the name.
-Go back in case of a tearful leader’s dedication to protecting the mangdol/sales writing problem
-The last album of Ikaros, a hot neglected idol, is a lot of fun~
In particular, the efforts of Seo Ji-hoo, who had suffered alone, shined. The contents that did this and that for the group without giving up ran in reverse.
At the last minute, they set up two groups, but Cha Noah, who had several solo activities as a group, also drew attention. Lee Tae-in showed an unexpected talent for acting.
Lim Do-yoon stopped appearing on internet broadcasts and gradually learned to speak through his brain. Kim Yoon-jae also improved his dance skills, which were highly praised in the past, while living in the practice room.
-Is this really our teaser?
-What is it, did you suddenly wake up after being taken over?
-My kids’ company is finally working. It’s too late.
It’s a good time to be determined and pour capital and sincerity. The few fans who had not given up on Icarus in the meantime could not distinguish whether this was a dream or reality.
-Ah, these are Hunpo idols hahahaha I thought they disbanded
-Aren’t you the one who got caught trying to get a girl’s number through Son’s before?
-Didn’t Lim Do-yoon say something strange on Mingdagger TV before?
-To those who want to become a fan of Ikaros, I warned them that they were disliked by Lee Tae-in.
Of course, as a reaction was about to come, the words and actions and mistakes they made in the past were revealed again.
“I knew it would be like this.”
The members were nervous about what to do with this, but Seo Gun-woo was carefree.
“Anyway, only people who have to react like this on the Internet know. So you catch the masses.”
“yes?”
“how?”
The members who had been bowing their heads like criminals raised their heads.
“You guys find a way.”
“no······.”
I thought he was saying something grandiose… He seemed disappointed, but Seo Geon-woo believed in these kids. Even if I don’t feed them, they know the answer. It’s just that you don’t understand
“Take care of people. Instead of pretending to be strong and bluffing, reveal your true feelings.”
Excessive exposure of one’s emotions is not very helpful in society. But sometimes it can move people.
Seo Geon-wu looked at Lim Do-yoon and Kim Yun-jae, who were still unable to make sense of it.
***
Even though it was a comeback soon, Ikaros came out on the street and promoted itself.
[CEO… I really suffered a lot. Go to famous composers, go on the offensive, go to music producers, and bow your head…]
[is it so?]
[okay. I wouldn’t be distracted because of work at the company…]
[What does that mean?]
They heard from Secretary Yoo how much Seo Kun-woo had worked so hard for Ikaros’ grand comeback.
[The CEO’s father, that is to say, the chairman is trying to blame our CEO and Enter for stealing his slush funds.]
Besides, even the situation Seo Geon-wu is now in… I’ve heard all of that, but I couldn’t calmly practice.
“Our Icarus album is coming out tomorrow!”
“If you enjoyed the performance, please buy me an album! thank you!”
They found a street busking place they had done before and did their best to perform in a different look than before. More and more people were watching their performances.
“Is that him?”
“Right.”
Among them were young friends who were swept up in the internet reaction. Kim Yun-jae knew that it referred to himself.
Kim Yun-jae was a proud and stubborn member. What is an act of sincerity? I didn’t understand then, but now I understand.
‘The stage was so fun.’
People gathered a lot more than expected. At this moment, it was good even if the place was on the street instead of the stage in the broadcast.
He dreamed of a picture like this. We wanted people to stop walking because of us and to keep their eyes fixed only on us.
From noble mtl dot com.
okay. Buy even sympathy. thud! The other members were also taken aback by Kim Yoon-jae kneeling on the floor making a loud noise.
“Hey, why are you like this?”
“The floor is cold. wake up.”
“We… we are done now!”
However, Kim Yun-jae did not stand up. In the meantime, I did nothing for the group, but I saved face. I didn’t mind kneeling down for the sake of friends I’d been with for years.
“I know I’ve done a lot of disappointing things. By the way… We are now at the end. This is the last activity!”
“what?”
“oh my god. Didn’t your knee break?”
People gossip, searching their names on their phones. Before long, Lim Do-yoon also knelt along with Kim Yun-jae.
“Please help us finish our last well!”
“…”
“please!”
Following Lim Do-yoon, Lee Tae-in, Cha No-ah, and even Seo Ji-hoo knelt.
“Please remember us, even just once !”
