I could feel how much they waited for a comeback from the fans who squeezed the rice cake with all their might.
The ripple effect of the short music hummed by Big Blue Lee Jun-hee was enormous. It was even used for publicity on Instagram, the OTT platform that Junhee Lee is currently filming.
[‘Actor Lee Jun-hee’ also spoilers?]
I said while answering Lee Jun-hee’s phone call.
“Can I really do this when I get to the age of my brother?”
– It wouldn’t be possible, would it?
ok, this is right hahahaaha.
Junhee Lee heard my laughter, laughed together and continued.
– I’m sorry the recording schedule is messed up. Haewon is busy too.
“Hey, where did the schedule come out?”
I checked the recording schedule sent by Pom d’Api.
Since everyone was so busy, there was no member with a recording time attached. The 1 to 2 am member is good, and one of the members, Korean-American Daniel, is a cast member of a drama series being filmed in LA. I had no choice but to finish the concept photo + recording in half a day. I hope those 30 minutes are properly secured.
In any case, all the members agreed to the promotion and set a comeback schedule. It was surprising that all of those busy members took part while yielding their own, and I was envious of the time to create it.
I hung up the phone after passing through Junhee Lee what the members should pay attention to when practicing. I already sent it via email, but Lee Jun-hee said, ‘There is a high probability that the members will read the email by sending it, so I’ll send it again.’ Important things should be communicated verbally rather than in writing.
After hanging up like that, Shin Ji-woon came into my studio.
“Brother, I brought a demo.”
“… … give me this?”
Shin Ji-woon went directly to Tike Entertainment’s A&R team and brought a demo of the leaker. Seeing that the A&R team was just handing over demos from others when they asked for it, I think that’s why there were a lot of leaks at Tike Entertainment.
I think I took my music, arranged it, and distributed it to A&R, but I was wondering if it would be possible to find out at what point in time when I listened to the sound source.
I save work files by date until the song is completed. There are times when you have to go back and work. I set the standard for myself when ‘the song is complete’ is the moment the music video is released.
I played the sound source Shin Ji-Woon brought.
It was a demo of a file I had been working on, replaced with a few virtual instruments and overlaid with familiar samples.
Really, you said I’m mad. Listening to the demo makes me feel.
Shin Ji-woon asked.
“Do you know when it leaked?”
“Oh, I don’t know. I changed it anyway.”
I answered and continued.
“I’ll listen more.”
“uh. Listen and come to room 304.”
“yes. okay.”
After I nodded, Shin Ji-woon left the studio.
A sigh came out.
All that was added were samples that I first heard while learning to compose at the beginning of last year. So, honestly, the moment I heard it, I knew at what point it was leaked.
Still, just to be sure, I played the sound source on the date I expected. The day I thought was right.
I pressed both eyes tightly with the palms of both hands.
“… … Hey, you bad bastard.”
And he seemed to know right away who leaked it. Because there was only one person I left my MacBook with that day.
* * *
Shin Ji-woon left the studio and headed towards the studio again. Looking through the small glass on the door, Jung Hae-won was holding her eyes with both hands.
I didn’t know how a person with absolute pitch would sound when listening to music, but I knew roughly how much work Jeong Hae-won could do with it by watching it from the side.
I thought that Jung Hae-won, who even organized the files meticulously by date, would know the date of the leak the moment he heard it.
So, to say that I don’t know is clearly a lie.
When I went to room 304, the members were trembling as they watched the KQS Lunar New Year special room escape. Park Seon-jae barely looked at the screen and covered his eyes with both hands, then looked at Shin Ji-woon and asked.
“When is Haewon hyung coming? There must be one fearless person.”
“I said come.”
Shin Ji-woon answered and sat down with a dissatisfied expression.
Then Hwang Sae-byeok looked at Park Seon-jae and said,
“I am.”
“My brother has no will. Even if a ghost appears, I don’t think I’ll run away because it’s annoying.”
“Seonjae, I have no stamina, I have the will to survive.”
After Hwang Sae-byeok answered, he folded his arms and watched the broadcast again.
Filming began in the garage of a suburban two-story house with a plain exterior. It was a screen shot with an infrared camera in the dark where nothing could be seen.
The members searched for clues in the garage with the sense of their hands. Then, Hyo-seok Han touched something and was shocked and sat down.
Han Hyo-seok sighed in embarrassment, and Hwang Sae-byeok quickly came over there. And after finding Hyo-seok Han, he got up and picked up the item.
Park Seon-jae said at the sight.
“… … He is a true leader.”
When he heard the compliment, Hwang Sae-byeok pretended not to know in embarrassment.
– Haewon-ah.
I was afraid to check what it was, so I took my hand as far away as possible from my body and called Jung Hae-won. Jung Hae-won took it, touched it, and said.
– It’s a doll.
– Oh, I’m really scared… … .

On the screen, Park Seon-jae could not stand the fear and sat down. And Park Seon-jae, off-screen, could not see the doll and covered his eyes with both hands.
“You look so scary… … .”
A doll with sparse hair had its eyes open when raised and closed when laid down. At that time, Min Ji-ho, who was doing his part hard, said:
– Haewon hyung, here’s an open glass box!
-Oh, I guess I’ll add this friend.
Jung Hae-won said, went to the side where the voice was heard, and put the doll in the glass box. And when I closed the box door, the light inside the box turned on. Thanks to the bright lights, I began to see the inside of the garage.
There was an amulet on the garage door, and next to a glass box was written the secret of the house.
Roughly speaking, this doll comes to life at regular intervals, so this house was built to suppress it.
The members shuddered that it was an escape from the room they did not want to do again. At that time, Ahn Joo-won paused the video for a moment and looked at Shin Ji-woon and said:
“But Hae-won isn’t coming?”
“Oh, I don’t know.”
Shin Ji-woon spoke angrily.
“I guess you don’t want to catch the leaker.”

Manager Park Joong-woon came out to the parking lot after Jung Hae-won contacted him to go eat. I usually have almost all of my meals delivered to the studio, and after nagging me to go out for a bit, it seems that they finally eat it.
Manager Park Joong-woon sat in the driver’s seat, and Jung Hae-won asked while sitting in the passenger seat.
“What is delicious nearby?”
“Let’s eat something healthy, not something delicious. Shall we eat something like gondrebap?”
“yes.”
Jung Hae-won’s answering expression was not cool. Manager Park Joong-woon asked.
“Why are you not feeling well?”
“not good.”
“Then shall we just eat something stimulating?”
“brother.”
“yes.”
After leaving the parking lot, Jung Hae-won opened his mouth again.
“There is something really strange.”
“Is that weird?”
“Of all the people who have treated me badly, there has never been a really bad person.”
Manager Park Joong-woon stopped at those words. Jung Hae-won continued speaking in a calm voice.
“It was like that with everyone feeling remorseful. to eat to live. can’t do it. Because I ordered it from above, I have to protect my position and I want to earn some performance.”
“… … .”
“If you think that life is like that, suddenly the world feels so pathetic.”
Manager Park Joong-woon finally stopped the car. Then Jung Hae-won said.
“Go on. Let’s eat.”
“… … Haewon-ah.”
“I just want you to tell me who made it.”
Manager Park Joong-woon did not answer.

On the day of the VMC Music Awards.
Manager Park Joong-woon had a conversation with an employee. It was Lee Yong-min, an employee of VMC’s music channel, TYT’s music content division.
In the beginning, it was the person who called Jung Hae-won with a warning as soon as he started talking about the bad piece.
Then I heard that VMC was thinking of acquiring TRV. It is said that he wants to somehow make up for the shaky title of ‘survival powerhouse’ through ‘The Rising’. In addition, it was revealed that Jung Hae-won had lived a hikikomori life for two years after the bad movie, and the image was severely damaged.
As public opinion on Jung Hae-won became more positive, the image of VMC was damaged. As a rookie, this is still the case, but in the future, if a team called First Light becomes a very successful team, it will be even worse.
It was said that if the brakes were applied to Jung Hae-won’s rising image once, it would help to restore the image on the VMC side as well.

Of course, talking to manager Park Joong-woon was also a promise to create a seat at VMC regardless of the acquisition.
The VMC offer was a good opportunity for manager Park Joong-woon, who wants to take a proper place in the entertainment industry.
But, to be honest, from the side view, Jung Hae-won felt like it wouldn’t be strange to jump from anywhere if public opinion worsened again.
So, although it is not exposed to public opinion, the industry thought of a way to impose restrictions.
Perhaps because of trauma, Jung Hae-won had a habit of looking at the moods of everyone around him in his daily life. And I tried to release it whenever possible.
Then, Jung Hae-won continued speaking with the cool expression that manager Park Joong-woon had seen for the first time.
“why? Don’t you want to talk?”
“that… … .”
“Oh, are you the boss where you want to change jobs?”
Manager Park Joong-woon kept his mouth shut at Jung Hae-won’s sarcastic remarks. Jung Hae-won asked again.
“Answer me this too. Who arranged it?”
“… … friend. But I don’t know how he wrote it.”
“ah.”
After hearing the answer that he had leaked through another question, Jung Hae-won laughed heartily and sat down on the back of the chair.
And after a while of silence, he opened his mouth again.
“It would be great if only bad people did bad things. Then I wouldn’t be so upset… … Well, thank you for one. You taught me not to believe that I like someone.”
“… … .”
“I’m not going to report it to the police, so return the car and get out quietly.”
“I’m sorry… … .”
“I’m sorry, go to VMC and betray for me one day. Is that all right?”
“… … yes.”
Jung Hae-won said so and got out of the car. There were people in India who recognized him, but he was the type that was difficult to talk to, so he did not talk to him even though he secretly took a picture from behind.
