[It’s almost like Jung Hae-won’s group, so we rely too much on one person]
[That’s why I get anxiety symptoms]
[↳But I understand the member’s point of view.
[↳ It was salty and cute to see him come alive right away after calling]
[Para has a fondness for each other ㅠㅠ]
[Why are the Damju members crying?]
[↳ The reason has not been revealed yet]
[↳ Maybe Haewon is here? It’s similar to when you returned home ㅠㅠ]
[Really, the more I see it hahahaaha How did Haewon make a garbage man by editing it?]
[Today, Haewon’s empty seat is too big and it hurts my heart. … .]
[↳I can’t believe that there was a Pura without Haewon even though it was my first proposal ㅠㅠ]

Chae Yoo-ho, the leader of New Days, one of the groups in Survival and The Rising, was staring at his cell phone.
3 years after debut, only 2 years and 4 months. The sound source is chart-out anyway, so there is little damage, but it was a big shock that the Initial Chodong dropped significantly.
The Rising had a good impact, and obviously there was an influx. However, it was revealed with this initial movement that the influx could not be caught for less than a year.
Although Heo Hae-jun’s song was good and he was confident in his performance, all indicators fell.
When Chae Yoo-ho looked for K-pop related reactions to catch straw, there was a reaction that he got tired of the repeated ‘innocent boy’ concept.
In fact, there was just no reaction overall. Among the teams participating in The Rising, the team with a member who had an accident was getting more attention.
Among the teams that competed together in The Rising, the best performing team was by far the First Light.
Until the contest started, New Days was ahead of First Light in all respects except for music rankings.
However, in this mini, First Light was ahead even in Initial Chodong, where New Days was clearly ahead.
The problem was that New Days’ agency is famous for discriminating between ‘groups that work’ and ‘groups that don’t’. In the meantime, even the next comeback schedule was scheduled in advance, but for the first time this time, even the next comeback schedule has not been decided.
Since Chae Yoo-ho is only looking at his cell phone, member Kang Jin-young, who always seems strangely relaxed, patted his arm.
“Let’s go practice.”
“Oh, yes. Let’s go, let’s go.”
Chae Yoo-ho got up with his phone in his pocket. Then he stopped for a moment and said.
“Jinyoung-ah.”
“… … .”
are we okay
I wanted to ask such a question, but as a leader, I felt obligated not to say such weak words. Chae Yoo-ho turned around.
“let’s go.”
“Hey, let’s make it harder today.”
Jinyoung Kang said and headed to the practice room excitedly. Chae Yoo-ho thought that there was no way Jin-young Kang, who was quick-witted, could not understand what I was trying to say.
As it can be seen, it was clear that he was not in a relaxed state.

September begins, Manager Kang Young-ho posted a notice in the group chat room.
Gradually, the time to prepare the awards ceremony schedule was coming.
Among them, there was a proposal from KQS, a broadcasting station of The Rising.
As the winning team of The Rising, it was a proposal to direct the participating songs as a medley. The Rising Season 2 started in January, and it seemed to raise the topic.
As an extension, the KQS YouTube channel suggested how to make entertainment content from 3 to 5 episodes of 30 minutes, including the preparation process.
It’s a suggestion, of course, but, as always, we don’t have a choice. hahahaaha… … .
I looked at the examples you sent me, and they were all projects that parodied old entertainment. It seemed almost impossible for our members to get a laugh out of here.
When such an offer comes in, the agency has to do some planning, but I don’t think it will.
Fortunately, the team that made our own content with us started to take charge of the rookie side of TRV.
I saw the name of Jinyoung Kang, whom I just texted on my cell phone.
I am concerned about the cluttered atmosphere of the team these days, but more than anything else, Kang Jin-young’s method of performing unit missions in Rising left an impact on many viewers.

Our members are basically not fun, but they have a strong desire to win. If there is a competitive landscape, they will fight harder. And Jinyoung Kang will use a strange number no matter what game he wins. Our members may be able to fill in what we lack artistically.
I wondered if there was a match that could be counter-proposed to KQS. No matter how much I think about it, I can only think of one thing that our members might like. baseball.

Oh, I don’t like baseball. One-tool makes me run every day… … .

6pm today. Kylum’s new song “Waterway” has been released.
And two hours later, at 8 o’clock, Kylum’s debut showcase began.
The scene was full of reporters and fans. After a while, the VCR started and fans’ cheers filled the empty stage.
Meanwhile, some reporters visited Jung Hae-won.
“Isn’t Jeong Hae-won coming?”
“Did you come?”
In the meantime, reporters’ hands continued to beat the keyboard, and members appeared from one side of the stage decorated just like the last part of the VCR.
Kylum started the first stage with a b-side song.
Not only fans watching the b-side song stage, but also online fans reacted hotly.
[It’s so cute ㅠㅠㅠㅠ]
[Illumis are good at dancing]
[How can you all be respectful like that]
[Your face is a big company ㅠㅠ]
[Besam has a lot of money]
[Haewon must have come back while producing hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe]
[↳Haewon’s agency, what’s going on?]
[↳ I guess I’m just out of luck with the agency ㅠㅠ]
[Children’s laughing on stage is so cute ㅠㅠㅠㅠ]
[Are you a rookie or are you doing well on stage?]
[↳Because the pro idol is the PD]
[↳↳Our PD-nim, let’s stay strongㅠㅠ]
[This is also Jung Hae-won’s song]
[Jeong Hae-won’s songwriting profit is more than the money earned by first light, isn’t it?]
[↳ If there was one song written by Hee-Young Park, it would be a pension]
[↳ Awareness is already… … .]
[↳↳I think Shin Ji-woon has already surpassed the first light recognition too hahahaaha”
[↳↳ A group that thrives when dispersed]
[Certainly because he is an idol, he seems to be good at making killing parts for the stage]
[Kya, I picked the smell of money from the title sound from X]
[↳ That’s a talent, isn’t it?]
[↳↳ Talent + effort. You can’t make that sound unless you work hard.]
[↳↳↳ I want to go after him hahahaaha Even a bastard that looks like that is working hard hahahaaha]
[I’m curious about the waterway stage, tight flow ㅠㅠ It has to be selected as well as the music video ㅠㅠ]
[↳X I’m nervous because this concept is too strong ㅠㅠ]
[The stage with the concept of an angel hahahaahaha

I turned to the most important thing today, the members who are nervous before the title stage.
While they were changing clothes, a VCR was going out, where the members wrote their own profiles.
I’ve felt it before, but every time these idiots do the title song, they get particularly nervous. It’s clear that he’s worried about the reaction of the wing-like outfit.
I slapped Cha Woo-seok in the back, who is more bubbly among the members. Cha Woo-seok said sternly.
“Hyung, there are five of us here, so hitting me means we’re close, right?”
“yes.”
“yes?”
Cha Woo-seok looked around at my answer. I didn’t want to see the moved eyes. What’s the strangest thing about being mentally close with the bastard you hit the most?
I promised the members.
“It’s cool, you. Don’t be scared.”
“Tongue… … . Am I really cool?”
The youngest, Logan, almost laughed when asked, but I was honest and nodded.
“Because it’s cool. Guys. You’re going to be noticed by others. I’m going to be famous. For that, there must be an excess. If you have any complaints, come to me next time and ask. I’ll accept it, upgrade it, and make a better song.”
“… … What’s nicer?”

One of the members, Minjae Kwak, responded to that.
It is true that the Kylum guys gave me a hard time, but the desire for a ‘cool stage’ is in all the members. If it wasn’t for that, I’d be left with a contract or something that these guys couldn’t take on.
I nodded.
“yes. X or something cool.”
As I said, the Kyroom members’ faces were relieved of some concern. Still, I do hear it.
After a while, the members appeared so cool that I wondered why they were worried. Even today, I definitely felt that the best way to avoid awkwardness when the concept is strong is to spend money.
[Let’s sleep the night sea with gold sound]
[Put the road to heaven on it]
[La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-]
[Wings and a halo, we like birds]
[Golden luster flows on the road that has passed]
“ah… … It’s really over.”
I sat on the floor more than half way through the live stage in the waiting room. Only after doing this did I really feel that my work was over.
I will also have to do a mini work on Kylum, which will be released in March next year, but I decided to think about it next year. We will also be busy preparing for the year-end awards ceremony.
When I was about to go out in the middle of the stage, the 4th headquarters A&R, who was monitoring in the waiting room, caught me.
“PD, where are you going?”
“Let’s go, today is the day they get attention. If I stay, I’ll be in trouble.”
“Child, though… … .”
“Please tell Hyojun hyung that I’m going.”
“yes… … .”
After seeing A&R that I really regret, I smiled and nodded, and then left.
Today, I have learned one thing for sure.
Being behind the stage doesn’t suit my aptitude.
I wanted to go up on stage. I wish the cheers were mine. As a composer, I wasn’t very happy with the applause or the money.
When I came out, Spy 1, manager Park Joong-woon, who was in the hallway, ran up to me.
“Why are you with me?”
“I’m at my company.”
“now? Uh, yes.”
The other two managers were backstage, so it seemed that only Manager Park Joong-woon, who had come to do chores, was left here.
I headed to the car, and manager Park Joong-woon left the parking lot after contacting the other managers without saying anything.
After a while, I called Jin Young Kang of New Days.
– Yes, bro. I was waiting.
This is my first call after exchanging phone numbers with Jinyoung Kang. I clicked absurd and asked.
“If, with our team, with your team… … If you fight.”
– Yes, bro. if you fight
Wow, this bastard doesn’t get weird no matter what I say. Since you are such a strange person, do you feel that everything is normal?
“What kind of content do you think would be interesting? It’s just baseball.”
– It’s a death game.
“… … .”
It wasn’t Jinyoung Kang’s answer, but the speed of his reply was surprising.
By the way, death game… … .
Are you talking about risking your life in a movie to play a game? So in this case, we’ll be playing a game for next week’s appearance. It is perfect for our members who are introverted but have a strong desire to win.
“yea, I got it.”
-Yeah, thanks for calling.
I hung up the phone and immediately asked the members for consent.
[Kids, you have to be a medley at the KQS awards ceremony]
[And you have to do YouTube content too]
[How about making a proposal to make the content in the form of New Days and Death Game?]
[Minjo♥ : Woong-joa]
[Why is there no Minjo exclamation mark? Aren’t you hungry?]
[Maknae♥: Minjo is half awake right now hahahaahaha
[Hyoshik♥: I like it too]
[Leader Boogie: Death Game… … Do you die early if you stay still?]
[Shin Ji-woon: I just need to die quickly]
[Leader Boogi: I want to take care of the portion. My grandmother likes to appear on TV]
[Anzu: I like it too, but Haewon has a lot of work, so let Lee Hyung-hyung arrange the medley for you]
[Junior Lee hyung has become more comfortable. Actually, he is an easier hyung compared to having that hyung.]
[Anzu: Since I made you work in the studio in the first place]
[Yeah, he’s a cursed angel with a lot of tattoos]
[Minjo♥: lol]
[Hyoshik♥: I’m still sleepy and that’s it]
After getting the consent of the members, it is difficult to have fun with our team alone, so I sent a suggestion to KQS through the company about developing content in the form of a death game with New Days, a team that was a hot topic of discussion.
