MusicBomb, Thursday at 7 PM.

On a rare occasion, the internet was crowded with a lot of people waiting for the show to start.

- The lineup is splendid, I like it

- TeSTAR will come out first, please tell me when they come out lol

The reason is that there will be two big boy groups who will appear together on the show in which one of them will be having their debut stage.

Because of this, TeSTAR's fans are more active.

- Did you see what the kids posted earlier? It was so cute ㅠㅠ

ㄴ Posting a photo of his apology because he was flustered was really cute... But next time, make sure to take a selfie. That's what counts as an apology.

- It's okay to post 50 million posts at dawn, so make sure to post a lot

- The lunch box support was great. The kids must have a hard time early in the morning but I hope they ate well at leastㅠㅠ

- My stomach almost burst while watching the pre-recording because of jealousy... They filmed it about three times and they talked a lot in between.

- Moon-dae did a heart aegyo...

ㄴ Crazy

ㄴ Why didn't I attend the pre-recording?

ㄴ Did anyone film it? ㅠㅠ Please upload it...

The pre-recording review has already been released, and all kinds of information, including costumes and makeup, fan service, and talk, have been revealed to the fans.

So, the fans waited more eagerly for the main broadcast.

- Hi-five is not pre-recorded but live, right?

ㄴ yes yes I can't wait to see what kind of baseball uniform they will wear...

- Ah when will they come out? ㅠㅠ Any spoiler on the order?

Unfortunately, TeSTAR's stage did not appear for a long time. It was because it was Tnet's music show that they were treated well.

- The order was... switched...?

- It feels good but sad

- Where are you guysㅠㅠ

What is comforting to the fans, though, is that the group introductory interviews appeared in the mid-to-late stage.

TeSTAR, who appeared on the screen, smiled and waved their hands. They wore baseball uniforms and had props that fit their image, from guards to gloves.

- The baseball uniforms are crazy

- ㅜㅜ Moon-dae looks so good in black hair. I see you've become a black puppy

- The person who gave Cha Yu-jin pink hair!! Thank you!! Ah, it's so good.

- So handsome ㅠㅠ

- The team slogan is good

There wasn't anything special in the interview, it just ended with an ordinary script and chorus verse singing. However, the fans still enjoyed watching the members.

And when the performance was finally on air.

- Oh gosh

In an instant, the reactions came pouring in.

- Sh** they're good?

- Aren't the attractiveness supposed to disappear after the audition? Why are they so good? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

- It's a perfect concept to be solemn, but they pulled it off really well... Maybe it is because they're the ones who decided it

- I'm not kidding. I think I really became a fan. Hurry up and tell me the name of the person who looks like a brown-haired deer

ㄴSeon A-Hyun

ㄴ Good job Teacher, my child is an angel

ㄴ From now on, I will be the manager of the TeSTAR baseball team. I won't accept refutation.

It was a really fun stage of 'Hi-five' which was broadcasted live.

TeSTAR, who finds the camera in an instant and makes a mischievous expression or smiles refreshingly, to fit the concept, certainly looked like the owner of the song.

Thanks to the parts they shared, the live performance went well. It seemed fun to pull off the stage with the perfect choreography without any sign of nervousness.

- Ah, this is fun

- Kya As expected, idols need to perform well on stage

People talked as if the stage was already over after watching "Hi-five," but as soon as the "Magic Boy" stage came out, the comments and SNS were plastered with new articles.

- lol Wah, words won't come out

- Moon-dae has a good eye. I understand now why he pushed for this song

ㄴ Right? As expected, the Tibetan fortune teller fox who picked out ICorp's concept didn't disappear lol

ㄴ agree lol

- There aren't many male idols that don't make dreamy concepts cringe, so I think we should put TeSTAR in our genealogy

The TeSTAR members on the screen stirred the stage to a sensuous deep house song, with a dreamy orgel melody setting the mood.

Taking advantage of the fact that the stage was pre-recorded, a little graphic was added and without the excessive use of glitter and glitch, the stage perfectly depicted the mysterious concepts of "surreal" and "magical". And because the setting of "school" was not set, the refreshing and anxious feeling of adolescence was also alive without being excessive.

This is because several dramatic movements were added to the decisive choreography. And the members who are at the center of the choreography performed them well enough to leave the audience with their mouths open.

People expressed their thoughts in admiration.

- The baseball song came out first but honestly, I think this one sticks out more

ㄴ ? Isn't it the opposite? This one is on the trendy side and the baseball song one is for performance

ㄴ Let's just say both songs are good lol

- This is a win for humanity. How can you pick two good songs and perform both stages well? ㅋㅋㅋ

- To be honest, this is a landslide victory for 'Magic Boy'. From narrative to choreography, even the melody. Compared to this, 'Hi-five' is a bit B-class.

ㄴ Yeah, but still 'Hi-five' is placed higher on the music charts

ㄴ It's going to turn over soon.

ㄴ Ah guys, don't fight...ㅠㅠ TeSTAR already said they're going to do both...

ㄴ Right. Come on, let's just enjoy itㅠ

The fans enjoyed the afterglow of the stage with excitement.

- Is there a rookie who tore the debut stage? Yes, it's our TeSTAR.

- I wonder if a shabby person like me can like such a precious idol

- Shareholders, thank you for your insight... Just thank you...

- The part distribution was really well done. I can feel the hearts of all the members who took care of each other without upsetting anyone ㅠ

Although the old ballad group's stage was the next to broadcast, TeSTAR's fans were in the midst of a flurry of lingering feelings about their first official debut stage.

However, the atmosphere slightly changed when VTIC showed up.

- They're showing us what class is lol

- Wah, they're so good it's scary

- If they're like that, shouldn't we register them as something like a cultural heritage?

- Where are all the guys who were going to go after T-holic? lol

The noir-inspired swing house song was terrifyingly sophisticated and intense.

However, people were initially more interested in fresh images, dark horses. Therefore, the mention of TeSTAR did not die down.

- Ah, the future of KPOP is bright~

- We'll be able to see both performances all week lol

Since VTIC's stage was the ending, the first place announcement ceremony was held immediately.

VTIC skipped MusicBomb last week to attend other public TV last week. Because of this, they were able to have their comeback stage and win the 1st place trophy.

- Congrats~ congrats~

- It was as expected that I almost forgot to congratulate you

- Congratulations~

Neither VTIC nor the netizens were surprised. There was no great appreciation, but a happy and pleasant acceptance speech continued.

And soon after, the MC gave the closing remarks.

- It was fun~

- It was fun watching "MusicBomb" today after a long time haha

In a clear wave atmosphere, VTIC members came forward for the first-place encore.

Then, an unexpected cut was caught on cam.

Chung-ryeo, who was coming out, looked back at TeSTAR then smiled and waved his hands.

- Oh, oh did you anyone see that?

- ?? It was Chung-ryeo, right?

- What with you, Chung-ryeo? I thought he was not close with anyone from other groups lol

- Did he get close with someone?

- Cutie ㅋㅋ

- Of course, juniors are cute

People chatted happily, but they didn't know that the person who received the greeting was very uncomfortable.

***

'... What's with the sudden greeting?'

VTIC arrived in a hurry due to schedule problems and went live, so we didn't have the time to greet each other.

In other words, this is the first time I saw Chung-ryeo after .

We didn't even make eye contact, but he waved his hands?

'I don't think he's that kind of person.'

I felt a bit uncomfortable for a short time but then I disregarded it. I'm so busy that I don't know if someone suddenly says hello or not.

[Note: Not sure about this. Can also be translated as "Who cares when someone suddenly says hello or not when I'm so busy." So I just put what is the direct translation, after all this is MTLed]

'I guess he got excited because they won 1st place.'

I agreed with Ryu Chung-woo's words and moved on.

Cha Yu-jin's expectant voice was heard.

Big Se-jin murmured at the manager's answer.

I've heard the story, too. They say that the delay in idols' way home from music shows is due to the group shot and the greetings during the announcement of the first place.

'I've heard that they don't do that here but on a couple of public television channels.'

Thanks to this, I'll probably be getting off work late which I didn't like very much. I had a hard time staying up since early in the morning.

'... still, there's no other way to live in society.'

It was good not to stand out for no reason. We followed the manager in silence.

When we arrived in the hallway and lined up, Seon A-hyun whispered with embarrassment.

The cast was more crowded than expected, and attention was focused. It seems like someone will talk to you at any moment.

Although it is customary to say hello while distributing the albums, it was the first time for our group to do this.

'The sociable guys will take care of themselves.'

I took my eyes away and chatted with Seon A-hyun.

'Honestly, aren't we all close?'

However, there was no need to point this out. So I just stayed silent and nodded. Seon A-hyun's face has become brighter.

At that moment, I could see people from the other side of the hallway moving away from their seats.

This is a once-in-a-million timing.

[Note: Directly translates as "There is only one at this time." which I think doesn't make sense so whatever.]

'It's probably VTIC.'

The ballad group, who performed after us, was already absent before the announcement of the first place due to their schedule.

[Note: Raw is "연차가 꽉 차야지만 그런 곳에서 이득을 볼 수 있다는게 흥미로웠다." AND I DON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND.]

With the same principle, VTIC seemed to be able to greet the PD quickly thanks to its years of experience and popularity.

'...Are there any special benefits for T1 affiliates?'

As I mumbled in my mind, VTIC passed by in front of me.

Let's just do our best to say hello.

But someone stopped and spoke.

(pertaining to his place in the rankings)

It was Chung-ryeo.

The other VTIC members also spoke one by one pretending to know. Chung-ryeo was smiling.

'...This, is he doing this on purpose?'

I couldn't get rid of my doubts and just said hello.

Let's exchange numbers for now. Just in case it can be useful to me. I readily pulled out my phone. However, I doubt his intention of saying this in the hallway where there are a lot of people.

'He could have just gotten the number through the manager quietly.'

I'm sure there's something going on, including saying hello to the camera earlier. I don't know what it is.

'...is it just to show off his personal connections?'

Anyway, it is true that Park Moon-dae came in first place in the audition program. Maybe Chung-ryeo is just an attention seeker.

'How can I know the personality of someone I met once?'

VTIC shortly disappeared from the hallway. I took my smartphone back in, holding back my sigh.

Big Se-jin clapped and grinned in front of me.

Just eat some candy or something.
