《Debut or die》023
Advertisement
The arrangement meeting was led by Keun Sejin. And I received quite a bit of footage.
[Kwon Heesung: It’s a relief that Keun Sejin is the leader you know!]
[Ha Iljun: He is definitely a friend with leadership skills.]
Judging from the interviews of Gold 1 and 2, the production team also seemed to be planning to push Keun Sejin’s position as a leader.
“Thank you, everyone~”
“If you’re thankful, talk about me in the next interview.”
“Me too!”
“Ah, Of course~”
And one participant was looking at the screen in the living room with contrast to Keun Sejin who had a relaxed expression.
I glanced at Choi Wongil.
“…….”
Choi Wongil, who was silent despite coming to the meeting today, now openly showed tension in his face.
How did the production crew edit Choi Wongil’s quarrel with me?
From my point of view, as long as It didn’t come out as a quarrel, frankly, I didn’t care about it at all.
However, the editing went in an unexpected direction.
Choi Wongil’s quarrel was completely edited.
[The idea is good, but if it goes wrong, it might look like a mockery of the original song.]
In addition, Keun Sejin’s rebuttal to what I said was cut off.
Instead, a Keun Sejin that seriously raised his head, was put in frame.

[’ve been thinking about it, but I think there’s a way to go strong while preserving the original song’s emotions….. And there seems to be one.]
And immediately, they connected as if I gave my opinion.
‘They must have thought that Choi Wongil didn’t need the story’
In order to preserve the dramatic flow of arrangement, it was made into something that had no ambiguous dispute in the picture.
‘Come to think of it, they also skipped the part where we changed parts in the beginning.’
Choi Wongil seemed relieved, but I don’t know if that’s the case.
In the end, Choi Wongil did not receive any proper cuts until the end. Even his interview didn’t come off well.
Perhaps there was not much to use in interviews because he often said something about not liking his parts or arrangements.
Anyway, that was probably good, and the important thing was my editing.
Just in time, Park Moondae on the screen was finishing his speech with a faint smile.
[Mixing it with fear.]
[……!!]
Then, one by one, the surprised faces of the team members showed in close-up.
“…Isn’t that a bit extra?”
It was an edit that made people who saw it think that it was a rare idea.
There was even another interview.
[Ha Iljun: Wow! (Moondae) what he says is right!]
[Kwon Heeseung: I thought this was it.]
[Lee Sejin(A): That’s… He is talented]
Child actor Lee Ahyun’s words sounded somewhat bitter. But more than that, I couldn’t believe that he had such an interview.
Thanks to this, the living room was full of jokes and cheers, shooting at each other with cheesy interviews. Lee Sejin kept his mouth shut and firmly looked at the screen.
And everything turned into laughter when Keun Sejin’s interview came out.
[Lee Sejin(B): Isn’t Moondae so funny? (laughs) His expression was like a Tibetan fox and he exploded with ideas, it was seriously so funny!!]
Against the backdrop of Keun Sejin’s words, ‘Park Moondae’’s response to all kinds of situations was edited.
Seon Ahyun’s ranking evaluation.
[I… I-I… W-When I was young, I had an accident.….]

[Oh, my……]
The sad public opinion of the general public passed by, and Park Moondae was zoomed in.
He looked like calmness itself.
And the caption that was added.
[Park Moondae: (No~D)]
“Ah! That’s right!!”
“He was really like that! (Laughs)”
And the trainer’s harsh criticism scene.
[This is the kind of evaluation you receive at a school talent show!]
[……]
Among the team members who were bowing their heads and biting their mouths, Park Moondae’s peaceful expression could be seen.
[Park Moondae: (Calm~ness)]
That’s right.
All kinds of situations where the other participants were agitated.
Park Moondae looked like a frozen pollack by himself.
“Gasp!”
“That face! So funny!”
“……”
Only then did I admit my defeat.

He was alone among the participants who were overreacting, so he didn’t look calm. But really…… there seemed to be something wrong in his mind.
‘I shouldn’t have cursed at the production team.’
I laughed like crazy and reflected on myself, avoiding Keun Sejin’s hand hitting my back saying sorry.
Later, in the broadcast, the smooth arrangement process was not a short spoiler.
[Lee Sejin (B): We’ll do well!]
[Park Moondae: …Fighting]
I don’t know why I shouted ‘fighting’ without any emotion……
And soon after, the stage began.
The team members, who were talking about all sorts of things, quietly focused on watching at this moment.
I looked at the unfamiliar face of ‘Park Moondae’ who wore make-up for the stage. I couldn’t believe I was that guy.
[Oooooooh-]
Soon, a gloomy intro flowed with the introduction choreography, and the performance began in earnest.
And the shocked faces of other participants who were waiting began to be inserted whenever the part changed. Oh my god.
It was fortunate that the stage didn’t feel cut off, perhaps thanks to the hard work that went into the editing.
“Hmm.”
Anyway, the stage definitely came out well.
In particular, I could see Seon Ahyun flying like a fish in water. The main dancer looked like Seon Ahyun, not Keun Sejin.
‘I think Seon Ahyun’s ranking will rise sharply.’
The next thing you could see well was Keun Sejin, and the rest of the parts were well played. Surprisingly, Lee Sejin also managed his expressions well, so he didn’t look awkward.
When Choi Wongil came to the center in the chorus, he seemed to have suffered some losses because the cut was distributed to Seon Ahyun due to the choreography.
And for me… Fortunately, the bridge part came out properly.
[Can’t you feel me?]
After this line, two or three reactions overlapped.
‘…Isn’t it almost like a roundabout* song?”
(* T/N: Didn’t know what to call it but basically it’s a type of singing style where one person starts and the rest slowly join in after time)
Thank you, but at the same time, the intentions were questionable.
“What if there’s another senseless talent that goes into it?”
So when the trainers’ conversation was inserted in the bridge part reaction, they were staring at the screen with suspicious eyes.
[Mudy: That was originally Wongil’s part.]
[Jeogtaesong: Really?]
[Mudy: Yeah, but since Wongil said he couldn’t do it, (Moondae) gave his chorus part and rearranged it by himself…… (He did it).]
But I didn’t expect them to save the story for here.
In addition, just listening to the trainer’s conversation, it sounded like I did a good job and exchanged parts with Choi Wongil.
Well, but in the end, it was true.

Mudy even got an interview cut.
[Mudy: Moondae is surprisingly soft-hearted]
[Mudy: But, the song is strong!]
Thank you.
Even the character of ‘ignorant but a good boy’ was better than ‘I am ignorant and unaware’.
If I manage to avoid sudden death, I will be sure to send her a red packet to repay her kindness.
The stage ended with enthusiastic responses from the audience shouting for encore.
[Encore! Encore!]
And the image of the team hugging and rejoicing was successfully broadcasted.
“We were awesome.”
“Honestly, it’s my stage, but it was good to watch it.”
“Agreed.”
With meaningless applause, the conversation of all team members who were satisfied echoed through the living room.
I was focused on myself so I only talked about my portion, but in fact, my teammates received a pretty even amount.
Thanks to this, the atmosphere of the living room was still harmonious.
I don’t know, but there were probably many participants who were portraits.
For example, Ryu Chungwoo’s team that came out next was… It was at a level of wanting to pay silent tribute.
Let me tell some of the captions.
[They got the best song?]
[Ho-we-ver.]
[Members can’t focus on practice.]
[Leader Ryu Chungwoo’s struggle.]
The finishing touch was an interview with Ryu Chungwoo, who had a difficult expression.
[Ryu Chungwoo: …We have to do it]
Only read this at europalation (dot) wordpress (dot) com, please do not repost
“Wow, they sent it properly.”’
I already knew it wasn’t that bad, but I felt bad watching it.
Even the guys here talked casually and sympathetically while watching, so I said everything.
“Hey, what should we do with them?”
“Chungwoo-hyung had a hard time. Huh, but still…”
To summarize roughly, it was a picture where Ryu Chungwoo endured the time of hardship to complete the stage with the rest of the team members who had no skills but many complaints.
“Chungwoo has a good personality… Hey! Looking at it like this, you’re a saint.”
Gold 1’s disheartening remarks accurately explained the editing composition.
Anyway, the broadcast even showed us easily winning against Ryu Chungwoo’s team.
[The score is… 82 against 401!]
[Woooo!!]
It was a particularly good cut.
Regarding the individual voting, it ended with a strange editing that made Ryu Chungwoo cheer for his individual voting.
[Ryu Chungwoo: I think I lacked a lot of things.]
[Park Jungseob: Honestly, (individual voting) we shouldn’t win it.]
[Lee Dojun: The person who led the team is responsible……]
Well, it was neat and good that our team didn’t mention the individual voting at all.
It was a complete victory for our team, both on the field and in the broadcast.
At the end of the third episode, all the team members fell to the floor and sofa.
“Wow, this is so exciting.”
“I was so nervous that I thought I was going to die!”
“I-I was scared.””
Even Seon Ahyun spoke about it.
Everyone seemed to have used a lot of their hearts.
Keun Sejin lied down on the sofa and said,
“Ah, that’s a strange thing to say… Everyone worked really hard. Hey, everyone looked so good on the show!”
“Keun Sejin, you did a great job~”
“I’m glad it came out well.”
Gold 2 raised his eyes with anticipation and left this comment.
“We’ll get great responses, right?”
And as if someone had granted a wish, the words came true.
***
The first reaction that showed as an indicator was on youtube
The stage video of ‘October 31’ the team that Park Moondae belonged to, was ranked 9th in real time popular videos.
The comments were crazy.
– From the arrangement to the stage, everything is amazing.
– Such a precious stage in a shabby place like RJC;;
– Everyone, this is stock you want to eat.
– What? Vampire? Wait for me. I will drive a blood donation car.
– I organized their names! 0:12 Seon Ahyun, 0:21 Lee Sejin (B)… (See more)*
(* T/N: This is something you can often find in current kpop videos, basically a timestamp where each member appears so new people can match their faces and learn more about them)
– October debut like this ㅠㅠ
– I looked at the preparation process, and everyone was so nice and friendly. So cute ㅠㅠ Is this real?
Immediately after the broadcast, similar recommendations or appreciative articles were posted one after another and shared on a 10,000 a day basis.
[IJC stage reinterpreted the female debut song]
[Participant team who created art with MallanDalkom]
[IJC Episode 2, Ranking is likely to change]
Even after encountering 〈Idol Joint-Stock company〉 with this stage, the viewers were slowly starting to warm up to it.
– I saw the vampire concept stage. Is it IJC’s new season?
– I thought they would be ruined, but what is with this stage quality?
– I never liked idols. But how can I vote for this?ㅠㅠ
Perhaps that’s why I was able to see the article of people tying the team together.
– I wish they could debut like this!
– The members are taking turns voting.ㅠㅠ Ah, why aren’t they a group already?
Several fast-paced KPOP reaction channels also moved.
They posted a reaction comparing the original song of MallangDalkom with the stage arrangement of October 31.
[WOW! It’s like, one of a kind, right?]
The video was reuploaded on the reaction translation channel with subtitles, constantly reproducing domestic and overseas inflows.

In the process, the frequency of the team members being mentioned in places like SNS also increased overwhelmingly.
It was truly a tectonic shift.
The finishing touch took place when the group posted a video of them reacting to the stage on Youtube.
[IJC popular performance! MallangDalkom saw it in person? October 31’s ‘Into The New World’ reaction video]
The members of MallangDalkom, who had completed their group activities after their heyday, were continuing their lives in a position of a celebrity on SNS, except for one member who succeeded as an actor.
Among them, two members joined forces to jump on the trend and opened a YouTube channel.
And just in time, they didn’t miss out on the interesting content related to them.
Thus, except for one member who was busy with her acting schedule, all the other members sat together and watched the arrangement stage of October 31.
“Wow.”
“Oh, this is a difficult part.”
“Yueun’s part, Seon Ahyun-ssi? He is my stock now.”
“Oh, the main vocalist is our fan! Park… Moondae!”
“Thank you~”
The reaction began with ceremonial exclamations, followed by appreciation of details, and praise for Gaja.
“Oh! The dry flowers on the outfit!”
“All of them did it in a symbolic flower arrangement. Wow….”
“It’s very delicate.”
Of course, when the bridge came out, everyone was shocked.
“They raised the high note like this?”
“One-kin?!”
“Wow, they are so cool……”
“He must really be our fan.”
And at the end, it ended in tears.
“Oh, no. Why am I crying? Why am I crying?”
“Ah~ They did so well. I guess we were really touched.”
The members, who were crying and fanning their faces with their hands, slowly opened their mouths.
“We… received a lot of love with a fun B-class concept. But originally, our debut song was like this.”
After debuting as a flower fairy, the MallangDalkom made a comeback with the so-called ‘ridiculous’ concept.
So at that time, there were memes that became famous on the Internet and other places.
– From Flower Fairy to flowerX on their head
Only read this at europalation (dot) wordpress (dot) com, please do not repost
It was the day when all of them wore a hairpin symbolizing a flower for the stage of 〈POP☆CON〉 .
Someone left that comment comparing the screenshotted picture with a picture from the first album stage.
“Actually, we… It’s true that we were loved more because they liked our debut song and gap, but it’s a bit… It was a bummer.”
Since that comment became famous, It was true that POP☆CON as a song became more of a hot topic.
They also had good feelings rather than bad memories about the concept of ridiculous-flavored cutie that brought them back to their heyday.
But that didn’t mean they weren’t sad at all.
“We were able to do various concepts……”
There was no one who would not be offended by the subtle ridicule.
So, they were very moved by the participants who approached their debut song seriously, which was not very popular.
“Thank you so much. MallangDalkom… Well, thank you for properly conveying the concept of innocence!”
“Yes. I loved your reinterpretation. Vampire… I want to try it too! If we ever get the chance.”
It was also impressive that they liked the stage where the original song was reinterpreted beautifully without harming it too much.
They wrapped up with a slightly teary voice.
“It was a great performance. We’ll all buy stocks, too!
“October 31, fighting!!”
“Fighting~”
As the screenshot version of the video was posted on the community and SNS, the number of views for October 31’s stage video once again rose sharply.
And before episode 4 came out.
Personal fancam videos of all the team match stages were released.

The Voice of the World
Jason Elric used to be an ordinary college student living in the heart of San Francisco. He had a part time job, he played online games with friends he got along moderately well with, and he earned reasonably good grades. The worst he really had to worry about in life was turning in his coursework on time and not being late to class. Now, though? Now fighting for his life and running from a horde of giant frogs that want to make him their next meal is just another Tuesday. Thanks to a summoning ritual gone terribly right, Jason has found himself trapped in a world eerily similar to the role playing games games he used to play for fun. Unfortunately for the now ex-college student, everything happening around him is terrifyingly real and if he wants to survive, he’ll have to figure out how to exploit the system for his benefit before it’s too late. The Voice of the World is the first part of what is planned to be a multi-book, Isekai LitRPG story with crafting elements, set in the fantasy world known as Verdania. This is my first time posting online for public consumption, so bear with me as I work to find a style that people like. While I may occasionally write scenes that may deal with heavy concepts, expect this story to be primarily light hearted high fantasy. There will be a lot of common fantasy tropes involved, as this story got its start as a simple practice exercise, rather than any plan to actually post it. However, it’s grown on me, so I felt it’s worth sharing after all. Thus, if you’re looking for more serious/original/unusual stories, you might want to look elsewhere. For the rest of you, feel free to leave suggestions, as well as to point out grammar and spelling mistakes; I’ll do my best to make edits to correct them. I do my own editing currently, and it’s easy to miss things when you know what’s supposed to be there, so such call outs are highly encouraged. Content TLDR: No harems, probably no romance (unless it makes sense for the story later on) (it did, eventually), definitely no sex (keeping this PG-13 or close to it), limited profanity. Does/Will contain mixes of magic and technology (think Warhammer, Final Fantasy); copious amounts of blue tables; race, gender, and sexual equality concepts; crafting sequences; and (slightly, but not overbearingly) strong protagonists. If you don’t like these things, go elsewhere instead of downvoting people for content instead of writing quality. Update Time currently varies, due to personal injury, but the goal is 1/week on Wednesdays, with a possible smaller chapter on weekends if time/health permits.

Then he was within the base layer of the collective of mostly-destroyed universes known as the core worlds of Tesson.
