《Debut or Die (MTL)》101

ㅤㅤ
It's Sunday, September 23rd.
TeSTAR's fans, the lovebirds, were saddened by the dried-up bait.
Of course, TeSTAR periodically left news on SNS, and news related to advertisements and events was steadily delivered every few days.
However, fans couldn't forget the taste of their debut activities, which was pouring like a waterfall.
- I don't hear anything else from the kids.?
- I kicked the director out. I want you to throw a party like W App about a week
- We have a conscience, too. We don't want a comeback already Guys, but can we do a variety show on WeTube???
- It feels like I'm eating barley rice and soy sauce every day after a feast of jujube. ㅠㅠ
Fans, who were so torn between conscience and desire, were set to fall asleep in agony on Monday.
Until the video comes up.
Something just came up on our official account and it's WeTube?
[TeSTAR "Bonus book" Comeback Trailer (with 127 Section)]
-???
- Comeback trailer?
- All of a sudden?
- I almost had a heart attack
People screamed and freaked out but clicked on the video right away.
The thumbnail was the left eye seen over the sights. I don't know if I'm wearing lenses or CGs, but they were shining a little creepy purple.
And soon the video began to play.
[……]
It was a long black bridge that appeared. Stretching feet across the sleek leather trousers strode somewhere.
As the camera followed its steps, all broken and covered with planks and cloths quickly lit up the powerful hallway.
And the camera went straight up from the bridge, and before I knew it, I could see my left hand in a black fingersuit. In the process, the side face was zoomed in together.
It was Cha Yu-jin with red hair.
And what's in Cha Yu-jin's hands... It was a worn-out red cotton doll.
[♫♪♩♪-]
Cha Yu-jin flipped the cotton doll, whistling a familiar melody.
The doll had a cogwheel on its back. The right hand grabbed the teeth without hesitation and began to turn.
Whispering*
The sound of the saws spinning raucously, and soon a strange note began to blend.
Pi Pi Pi Pipipipipi
PPi-.
Boom!
With a burst, the screen turned black. There was a narration.
[WHAT makes people live?]
[…A CHOICE]
As soon as the screen brightened again, the foreground changed.
It was a half-washed playground. The sand has hardened, and the goalpost has already been torn down. In the middle of that, when a strange pattern was caught in an air shot.
The heavy beat began to ring.
DOOOM DOOOM DOOOMDOOOM
Then the flamboyant string orchestra began to ring. It was an accompaniment to the critical minor.
Above it, an intense synth of electronic sound began to play the riff melody as if thunder had struck.

I’m gonna survive,
Like you did before
I’m gonna grab it,
Just like I dreamed
It was the introduction of high notes.
At that moment, the bottom of the screen's playground goal exploded. And underneath, Cha Yu-jin popped out.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
But not for me
I'm alive, yes, like
Legends never die
Cha Yoo-jin, who shook off dust and sand from her head, kicked the goalpost as if she were excited, and ran across the playground toward the main gate.
The moment he opened the dark red ivy-filled front door with his feet and strode through it, the scene shifted.
All crossroads are a crossroads of choice
But wherever you go, find it
The most obvious equation is
You will never die
Lee Se-jin was an actor who looked into the monitor in a blue lab filled with samples.
Unlike the delicate impression of glasses, the gown was covered with green and dark red marks.
Lee Se-jin, who watched Cha Yoo-jin galloping out of the main gate, got up from his seat.
Then, as he walked to the iron fence that blocked the lab door, he stopped his feet and read the warning signs.
It was a biohazard sign.
At that moment, the cut was changed to a hand that tore off the same mark in another place.
That’s what keeps me alive
I'm chasing you hard
a step toward completing life
If I reach out, I can hold it
Holding the torn paper in one hand was a big sejin in neat modern clothes. He stood on an old platform as if he were addressing something.
And the moment he threw the paper he was holding onto an old iron fence.
Hit it.
The crumpled paper bounced helplessly onto the iron fence, but the people standing under the podium rushed to the iron fence.
Big Se-jin shrugged his shoulders, lifted his baseball cap on one side, and put it on his head. And slowly disappeared from the podium.
At that moment, the camera shot up into the sky.
I’m gonna survive,
Like you did before
I’m gonna grab it,
Just like I dreamed!
A sniper with modern armed elements from head to toe was pointing a strange thing over the gauge from the roof.
A blue light shot from the sniper's gun.
The moment the light hit the pounding red lump, the lump burst and an explosion occurred.
The camera spun around, illuminating the sniper as he stood up throwing a gun. It was Ryu Chung-woo.
The gun thrown by Ryu Cheong-woo melted red and penetrated into asphalt as soon as it fell to the roof and disappeared without a trace.
And the camera fell below the asphalt.
I will never die
Like I did before
I’m gonna keep you
Alive- Alive- Alive!

Mannequins and all kinds of weapons were piled up half-washed in a huge sewer filled with water.
Kim Rae-bin lay still on the top. A stream of sunlight fell on it, but at the same time, water dripped down and wetted black hair and face.
At that moment, Kim Ra-bin raised his eyelids.
And I rolled my eyes to the side by side.
The camera moved along the rather eerie gaze.
with a thud
The cut was followed by the busy footsteps of people moving through the sewer.
Instead of being dropped, the song became more melodic. A gentle voice followed.
Choose your way
Choose your side
Make your way
Decide your fate
The camera was focused on a huge water tank-like object carried by people.
The water tank shook, and its top opened and its white arms popped out.
It was Sun Ah-hyun who pulled her body out of it.
Strangely shining water flowed from the tank over the shaking camera.
The feast of water droplets shining behind Sun Ah-hyun stopped like a halo.
At that moment, the camera escaped the sewer with flying drops of water.
And lit a broken window in a high-rise building.
Choose your way
Choose your side
Make your way
Decide your fate….
Standing behind the window was a boy looking into his smartphone.
The song died down.
[…….]
The boy, wearing a black hood, stared out the window with his back to the camera. What he had in his hand was an old smartphone.
Even in the middle of the night, the city was full of fluctuating lights. The backlight dimmed the boy's image.
The moment when the upper body slowly zoomed in.
The boy turned around and stared at the camera.
It was Park Moon-dae's face.
The camera zoomed away as if in amazement Then, before they knew it, they saw drones floating around the boy.
Drones in the twinkling glow shot at the camera.
Park Moon-dae looked at the camera with his strange purple eyes and threw his smartphone out of the window.
And as soon as Park Moon-dae approached the camera, the screen turned off.
Pick.
The caption came to mind.
[Choose Your Side]
[127 Section]
[Coming Soon]
That's how the video ended.
-????
-!?!?
And fans were bombarded with question marks and exclamation marks.
* * *
The trailer video was a short video of 2 minutes and 42 seconds, and only the first verse of the song was cut.
However, all kinds of SNS fan accounts and communities forgot about Monday and quickly chatted about the video because of its overflowing beauty and significance, and the elements connected to the last album.
- ㅠㅠ How can you surprise a new heart fan like me by launching a trailer like this without warning? Really ㅠㅠ Thank you. Please make it into law.
- It's a good thing we got rid of the director He's good without him
- This is like a pre-release song, right? I was sad that there was no choreography, but I thought the tension would be relieved if there was a group dance scene
- 맞Right, it wasn't a one-take, but I liked the editing feeling
- But I still don't know why the song is called a bonus book. It means a separate supplement, but is it the title of the video?
Of course, news was immediately released from the general entertainment-related community.
=========================
[TeSTAR comeback trailer]
: The fans don't know how to do it either
=========================
- Wow, the smell of money
- It's like a movie trailer
- But there's no choreography and the song doesn't feel like an idol
- Lee Sejin must invest a lot of money in T-ONE. Good for him I'll add some more and pour all the honey
- ᄒHmm... I think the video went up because I was an actor
-ㅋLOL You've got 20 seconds. Can you evaluate your acting skills?
- 아Oh, the stock you were pushing for at Ajou University got eliminated. That's too bad. Who is that?
- I feel like I've been eaten by the world view... It's too bad
- That's awesome
There were many people who shouted their disapproval hard, but the comments and views did not lie.
And of course, the subtitles at the end of the video were immediately analyzed and concluded.
=========================
[Testa: I think it's related to this video game]
: I searched 127 section for the last caption and found that the game scheduled to be released in October
(Articles captured)
It's a small development team, but it's taken over by T1
=========================
- Ho- Whoo!
- Was it a game collaboration?
- It's better. It feels like a game
- Was it just a commercial?
- 컴Looking at the comeback trailer... It doesn't look like an advertising. Hah!
- Well, I don't like it. They're just getting their own world view ㅠㅠ
- But there are so many things that are related to "Magic Boy" music video to be just for games The fans are selling a lot
- TDid T1 make the game a Testa worldview?lol
- 헐Oh my god
- 설No way
- 진It's real money;;;
Those who were moderately interested in Testa observed the situation with interest.
Fans went back and forth between worries and expectations, but the next day, the album reservation notice came up and ended up saying let's wait for now.
- Looking at the video, it's not a throwaway. The song is good and it seems like it's connected to the world view
- I don't think this is the title song. I think I just collaborated with a game company. I'm satisfied with the quality trailer
-The visual of the song fell off and I liked it. I'm looking forward to the title. ㅠㅠ
However, there were some that had not yet been completed.
[Hey, did you see this?]
It was a game community.

Welcome to the Upward Bound System, V.3
They say third times the charm. With every iteration we improve. When the System came to Earth, it changed everything. It is a grand thing used by gods and men alike. What had once been fantasy was now a reality. People believed and so that belief gave ideas the strength to manifest. "Welcome Founder of the SCP Foundation" It stirred the gods from their deathly slumbers. Stirred by an almost mechanical voice promising them new life, and followers as countless as the stars. All it asked of them was for their help. Help with what though? The old gods, the forgotten gods, and the new gods drew breath, and then made their voices heard. On a day like any other Dante was home from college watching the Presidential inauguration with his parents. Little did they know that this day would turn out to be anything but ordinary. That this was the day everything changed. Dante is not your typical MC. While he has a troubled past, he looks forward to the future. Follow Dante, his parents, and the new friends he meets along the way as they traverse this new system world. However, before they can explore this new world they must complete, the Tutorial. (Please note: This tutorial will be part of the story. Rather than a skim of the information, you will get to experience it in depth. So the tutorial will last a good while.) A much slower style of LitRpg than what you would normally find. Follow Dante and his party as they find their world taken over by the system. Welcome people of Earth to the Upward Bound System!... With the system's arrival so too does great danger come... The tools of your survival shall be granted upon you by the system... Please note, I don't own the art. Please enjoy the story, and if you don't please leave a comment and I will try to improve the story for you. This is the second version of this story, so feel free to check out the original and compare the two.
