Min Ji-ho still vividly remembered the day the group disbanded. The suffocating atmosphere at that time. The endless fights of adults.
The members were practicing in the practice room at that time. While I was practicing, thinking that the group would disappear as soon as they debuted, an employee of VVV, who was then my agency, came into the practice room.
It was said that the group activity was ‘finished’. At first, even the quick-witted members did not immediately realize that ‘end’ meant disbandment.
The members did not say anything to each other. Let’s meet again, we’ll be fine.
Looking at the members leaving without a word that day, Min Ji-ho thought that if Jung Hae-won had been here, at least they would have said hello. And after that, I believe that we didn’t keep in touch with each other until the day we meet again on TRV.
If you think about it now, the name of the debut group, ‘Boys’, which is now banned from mentioning, comes from Jung Hae-won’s first group mission. Jung Hae-won’s grade was pushed back from the beginning because of her vocal skills, and most of the group at that time were participants with low grades.
There were a few participants who lacked both skills and motivation, so they were upset almost throughout the filming.
So at first I thought that my personality was very dirty, but after seeing the finished stage, it wasn’t.
At that time, before the start of the stage, Shin Hee-beom had spoken.
‘Isn’t ‘The King’ the song that symbolizes Guk Seon-ah? In the sense of seizing the throne of debut. However, we had low-ranking members. We think this will be a place where anyone can sit on the throne. Ordinary ordinary boys. So our team name is ‘Ordinary Boys’.’
It was thanks to that comment that Shin Hee-beom, who had no special talents as an idol, was able to survive for a long time. Because that comment became a symbol of Kuk Seon-ah.
At that time, I heard that Hae-won Hae-won, who planned the project, had Shin Hee-beom, who was in a hurry to debut as the oldest among the participants of Kuk Seon-ah, speak instead, only later when I was in the same group with Shin Hee-beom.
Anyway, after the team was disbanded, Min Ji-ho returned to his agency. It was an agency that had a lot of big singers that can’t even be compared with TRV now, so there were a lot of trainees.
The agency made Min Ji-ho, who has grown in popularity, prepare for his debut with the members of the team ‘IMX’, which has been confirmed to debut. However, the members did not welcome Min Ji-ho, who returned after debuting once.
While Min Ji-ho was preparing for Kook Seon-ah, they became very close to each other, and contrary to the thoughts of the agency, the members believed that they could succeed if the agency’s push and their abilities were sufficient. Above all, there was no Min Ji-ho on the stage the members drew.
[Brothers♥ Where are you?]
[Answer me oh oh oh oh]
[Am I alone here?]
[Now this chat room is mine]
[Really?]
[Answer me please heuk heuk]
Until leaving the agency on his own feet, Min Ji-ho tried to get along well with the members both in the dormitory and in the practice room. If not this time, I thought that there might be no chance to debut again.
Still, he eventually left the company. The agency also thought that trying to debut Min Ji-ho together was a misjudgment, so they let him leave without difficulty.
After that, when he debuted as First Light again, Min Ji-ho was standing tight because of his desire to win IMX and the loss of trust in others, and he continued to collide with other members.
As I was thinking like that, Jung Hae-won stomped on Min Ji-ho’s sneakers, and was startled and escaped from the bad memories.
“Oh, why!”
“If all the members agree, do it, not even if one member disagrees.”
“… … really? But what if my brother dies? Is it hard?”
“No, why do you say bad things to people who do it?”
“I’m worried about it.”
Min Ji-ho spoke, pulled out his cell phone and posted a message in the group chat room.
[Members!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Minjo has a wish!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Jiwoon hyung: No]
[Listen well❤]
[Juwoni hyung: Let’s listen first]
[Leader: What is it?]
[Hyoshik: Say something quickly]
[Seonjae’s younger brother: Oh, where did the Kakaotalker go?]
Min Ji-ho looked at the whisper coming back and smiled involuntarily. Then, looking at Jung Hae-won, he smiled broadly.
“Brother, let’s go long!”
“Give me an answer.”
“Oh right.”
[Let’s go to ‘The Rising’!!!!!!!!!!! Haewon hyung got permission!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Hyoshik: Haewon hyung, you shouldn’t listen to things like this]
[Leader: Is Jung Hae-won a short-lived dream?]
[Seonjae’s younger brother: I have to live a long time… … .]
“Brother, help me!”
As Min Ji-ho urged, Jung Hae-won picked up the phone with an annoyed expression on her face.
* * *
[Just do it]
[Anzu: I think my short name is just a dream]
[Stork: Joo Won cursed when he said this kind of thing]
I tapped like that and put the phone back into my pocket.
Min Ji-ho was still smiling while looking at his phone. I wondered if Min Ji-ho was always that excited when he wrote exclamation marks in the group chat room.
“Everyone will do it!”
The expression is an exclamation mark.
My eyes went dark when I thought of the concert that would follow immediately after the new survival. Still, Min Ji-ho looked so happy, so I laughed out loud.
“Is it that good? It must be very stressful.”
“You can’t win. I don’t like to live long. But I want to show that we get along well with our members.”
ah… … That’s what I wanted to show you.
This time, Min Ji-ho continued speaking with a firm expression on his face.
“Still, I’m not going to make a fuss. Because I said do it, I’ll dance until I really die… … .”
“calm down. Don’t touch me.”

[First Light confirmed to appear in ‘The Rising’]
[????]
[Are you going to do this after all?]
[There were a lot of people saying they didn’t do it hahahaaha]
[The real VMC gave me the airwaves]
[But didn’t you say that Jung Hae-won has stage fright? He’s coming out for survival again]
[Capitalism Therapy]
[Hmm
[↳ Because it was just a storytelling]
[↳Fara fans were relatively reluctant to add new members because of stage fright]
[↳ Originally, Koreans are weak in affection]
[But are you ready to come out here? The rest of the confirmed teams are the real risings]
[It’s time to come out with a ↳ hehe class taryeong]
[↳ This time, 70,000 copies were sold in the first week of Fura, Rising]
[↳↳In today’s fried food market, 70,000 pieces… … ?]
[↳↳↳ Still, I heard the actual car. It is difficult for male idols to lift the actual car]
[Anyway, the personal recognition seems to be the highest here for Pera]

I made my own routine to feel less mental pressure on stage. First of all, I always listened to the same music before going on stage.
There are two songs, ‘I Love You’ by Park Hee-young and ‘I Know’ by my favorite idol Big Blue. When I listen to the trot, my energy rises, and when I listen to ‘I Know’, I feel more relaxed.
Thanks to you, the promotions for the 1st regular album ended today.
We ended the last day with a mini fan meeting.
When I turned around, the staff were installing cameras in the car we were in. It was the start of filming for ‘The Rising’ as soon as the real activities ended.
I looked around the car for a moment and then looked at the fans again. During the broadcast, I decided not to speak as much as possible, and to focus on the assignments given by the broadcast.
Hearing that we will be appearing, KQS as well as our company liked it a lot. In particular, when I confirmed the appearance and went to the KQS music room, I was greeted with a completely different atmosphere from when I was being rejected. Broadcasters are so stupid. hahahaaha… … .
“Sunshine! Then we’ll go! Gonna miss you!”
When Min Ji-ho gave her closing greetings, the fans were very sad.
Then Hwang Sae-byeok handed me the microphone and said.
“You say something too. You didn’t say a word.”
“ah.”
I picked up the mic. And I’m thinking about what to say, but I have only one thing to say.
“It’s really cliche, but… … Dawn doesn’t have the real stamina.”
“Why are you suddenly attacking me?”
Ignoring Stork’s absurdity, I continued.
“Usually, I almost collapse, but when I go up on stage and see the sunlight, I immediately come back to life. Dawn as well as the other members, of course me too. I thought that the sunshine is really the reason and strength that we go up to on stage.”
I said so, lowered the mic, and quickly picked it up again.
“Ah, thank you.”
With that said, the mini fan meeting was over. And while I was taking off the sticky notes with the members, I looked back at the sound of singing.
– Shall we hold hands and wait for the sun to rise?
The sunlight was calling us to a sunny day.
-You are my eternal sunshine. Even in the endless darkness and rain, when I see you, the world is a clear day.
The other members didn’t expect it at all, so they were frozen. I covered my mouth with both hands and squatted in my seat, and Shin Ji-woon immediately picked up the microphone.
“Hey, what if you call us Sunshine?”
“It’s a sunny day in Furado!”
In response to the fan’s answer, the tears that had already risen to the top finally spilled out. ruined.
“Wow, the sunbeams sing very well!”
“It goes well with today’s weather. Thank you, sunshine.”
The good news is that the other members who barely speak like that also cry, or at least have red eyes. I said goodbye and quickly went back to the car.
And there, I calmly let go of my emotions. It’s like bad fans. just make people cry
I barely came to my senses, and belatedly remembered that there was a camera.
It didn’t matter, because I thought all these scenes would be cut anyway. The problem is that the camera is too close.
“There are a lot of cameras.”
I started counting the number of cameras to rather forget that I have a lot of them. Fortunately, the members returned and got into the car. Park Seon-jae sat down behind me and said.
“Oh, now the more rising?”
“I see.”
“I think this is a mission.”
Park Seon-jae picked up the tablet that was sitting there.
As soon as I turned on the screen of the tablet, two MCs who deserve the word legend appeared. They were Lee Hee-se, the main dancer of a girl group that debuted in 2008, and Kang Yun-seok, the leader of a boy group that debuted in 2009.
“Ah, seniors.”
“Wow, that’s amazing. hello!”
As we stared at the tablet in amazement, the two took turns greeting each other.
-Hello, this is Lee Hee-se and Kang Yun-seok.
-Six weeks from now, you will be put to the test of your qualities as a rising star. Before we started broadcasting, what was the opinion you received the most from the members of each participating team, Hee-se?
-I was asking you not to use the fandom’s labor force.
-you’re right. We sympathize as idols, and we gave the same opinion to the producers. So, this review will be judged by randomly selected executives of a certain age, regardless of the fandom.
The ratio of age groups passed by subtitles. Those in their teens to 40s each accounted for 20%, and those in their 50s or older accounted for the remaining 20%.
Everyone didn’t say it, but they must be thinking the same thing. It’s an airborne process without knowing what it is.
-What is your first mission, Yunseok?
Then, Kang Yun-seok handed over the cue card. and showed it on the screen.
– The first mission is one song, two teams. From now on, the members of the six teams will be divided into three teams, two groups each, and two groups, that is, one team, will prepare a stage for one song.
I thought the first broadcast was a stage that showed the team’s colors effortlessly. As it is a survival novice broadcasting station, there is no such thing as a smooth progression.
I guessed the other five teams. The two teams I want to avoid are MII with Ha-jung Woo, and IMX, the debut team of Min Ji-ho’s former agency.
And the team I personally didn’t want to do was INO.
I want to avoid INO for one reason. number of members.
11 members of INO… … 7 of us… … Thinking that we need to bring together the opinions of 18 people already brings a sigh of relief.
-The team that will carry out the mission with First Light is INO.
Is not it. The world doesn’t go my way, heh heh… … .
