《Debut or Die [fan translation]》Chapter 139
Advertisement
The dance hazing, in which the two suddenly gave a reverse attack to the MC, was as expected, not cut out, and came out well as a whole.
It was mainly edited with a composition that caricatured the MC, but the impact was well maintained.
...I received a CG with wings burning in fluorescent color and captions like this.
The members, who regained the sound after promising to 'not burst into laughter every time you appear', twitched their mouths and cleared their throats.
"Haha, hum, you're doing well in variety shows."
"You're gre-, keuhum, great!
"Hyung is a scary person. So cool!"
"...Yeah, thanks."
Cha Yujin seemed to have creatively interpreted the captions that said 'scary' as 'threateningly superior'.
In any case, embarrassment aside, it came out well.
The reaction of the viewers who were checking in real time was also very good.
At the same time, the two VTIC guys appeared on the screen and showed off a great dance. Ten seconds later, they couldn't beat the MC's comment and started crawling around.
"...Hmm."
That was kind of funny too.
'VTIC fans can also be satisfied.'
As I was giving a generous evaluation, the doppelganger team battle began with a twist.
It was fun, but in the first 30 minutes of this game, there was nothing particularly worth scooping out as the best cut. There were only a few cuts of me playing the game and the reaction of bewilderment at VTIC's self-destruction.
"Why don't you have wings?"
"It was dangerous so we left it out~"
"Aha!"
With this easy-going conversation, this week's monitoring of ended.
"You two did a good job in the variety show."
"I-it was fun!"
It was a generous evaluation, but it felt a little early to hear it when the next week's episode hadn't even come out yet.
"Aigoo, thank you! Please watch the show again next week~"
"Haha, okay."
Ryu Chungwoo replied with a smile to Keun Sejin who was joking around. He couldn't imagine what he was going to see next week.
The response on the internet was only moderate with fans expecting next week's episode.
Even among general viewers, thanks to the strong appearance, the majority had a favorable impression as they thought 'these two from TeStar are fun'.
Hmm, that was good. Since the impact would be better if people didn't have too much expectations.

I stretched and got up from the sofa.
'I'll have to wait another week.'
It would go smoothly as long as there were no major problems.
But after that, the situation that I feared finally happened.
The public opinion of me began to falter.
* * *
While Park Moondae was waiting for the next episode of , the Internet became noisy again.
It was because as Park Moondae had expected, the case of exposing the person who revealed Choi Wongil's recording was not properly concluded.
The person had uploaded a post at this time. It was a post about Choi Wongil's notoriety in along with a certification of being a staff.
However, this didn't go but a few days.
The true identity of the uploader was revealed due to metadata that could not be erased.
And immediately, a notice of the company's progress on the accusation was posted.
'The distributor has no acquaintance with Choi Wongil, and they by chance listened to the conversation during a daily part-time job and recorded it' was the consensus.
At the same time, Choi Wongil's agency began to post anonymous corrections to each community site, informing of the identity of the uploader as provocatively as possible.
After the work was completed, public opinion finally began to show sympathy for Choi Wongil.
Naturally, as the attention of public opinion shifted, the sympathy and the high personality evaluation toward Park Moondae faded.
And there were people who were waiting for that moment.
Most responses were telling them to stop talking about things that wouldn't even work but there was also a lot of malice going along with the flow.
Of course, this post was deleted shortly after getting reported and refuted. However, it couldn't be helped but give the fans an unpleasant aftertaste.
From then on, out of nowhere, posts maliciously criticizing Park Moondae's past activities appeared in popular posts and then disappeared after disputes, repeatedly.
This was their intended response.
Due to a quick response from Park Moondae's side and TeStar's star quality itself, such a backlash did not occur, but it was precarious for a few days.
Fans went through each day with tension.
It was at that time when the second part of> Park Moondae filmed, started airing.
'Please get one thing.'
'Please, it's okay if it's boring, as long as nothing bad happens.'
With two mindsets intersecting, the second episode of 's started airing.

At first, it was just mildly funny.
It was nice to see the idols and actors who fiercely rushed into the game and worked hard, being friendly and comfortable.
Keun Sejin, who took care of the actor returning after receiving the penalty, also got the light shed on him by saying 'We're already close friends.'
The odd feeling started from the next game.
It was a game in which the team of a person, who held out for the longest time without spouting water they held in their mouths, won.
And Park Moondae survived alone at the table that was messy from water cannons.
There was no response even when the staff suddenly shouted or did a sexy dance, a monkey jumped out of the DJ booth, or an elephant rider passed by while juggling with fire.
Park Moondae's face, staring into the empty space without any agitation, was tranquility itself.
This was because the elephant was nothing compared to the crazy situation Park Moondae had been through so far.
'Elephants actually exist in the natural world.'
This was the sorrow of a fantasy novel's protagonist who was being threatened by a status window.
And captions were stuck on Park Moondae's head after quite a while.
Even a CG of the Tibetan fox appeared after. Because of the water, his cheeks got chubbier which became a perfect synchronization with the Tibetan fox.
It was a complete victory.
Park Moondae swallowed the water and nodded to the people around him. And gave back joy to the viewers.
However, it didn't end there.
The MC slowly started to make his move.
The MC tried to elicit a reaction from the flustered Keun Sejin, driving the situation with plausible words.
However, Keun Sejin smiled widely.
Beyond the flustered captions, Keun Sejin extended his index finger at Park Moondae.
It was madness for victory.
The captions were also flustered.
But Park Moondae was not taken aback.
They were speechless.
The two of them went forward side by side and were subjected to cat whiskers and raccoon doodles on the face.
It was cute, but their eyes were burning.
While the captions were also burning, the next round took place.
And Keun Sejin, who had predicted and prepared for this game based on the show's pattern, began to sweep the correct answers.
The moment when the victory of Keun Sejin's team was assured...
...Park Moondae began to self-destruct this time.
Park Moondae clenched his fists over the startled captions.
It was chaos.
In the end, as the game progressed, the cast members, who were involved, completely accepted the method of punishing the active person on the opposite team by self-destructing and getting the punishment.
The viewers were turned upside down.
Even though it was clearly a situation of them sacrificing themselves for the team's victory, the strange situation was just funny because of the excessive immersion in the variety show with no practicality.
Even the cast members, who were determined to carry out the plan, got caught up in the atmosphere and sacrificed themselves. The appearance of them giving up everything while going to receive the punishment with arms around each other's shoulders was pure comedy.
And something happened again in the final game where the final match was the last decisive game.
Sohyun of Fluffysweet gave up on the 'suicide bomb threat' plan at the last minute.
The over-immersion ended with a betrayal like that.
Youngrin successfully raised the flag and gave her team victory.
Park Moondae's bleak expression, which looked like his soul has left his body, was especially funny.
And the TeStar-focused clips of this episode quickly became a popular video the moment it was uploaded to WeTube.
The antis, who were working hard to build up the 'Park Moondae pretends to be nice while giving people a dirty look' narrative, were shattered by the waves of 'The over-immersed Tibetan fox 4D Park Moondae'.
* * *
'It's done.'
I let out a complicated sigh and turned off my smartphone.
It was kind of... embarrassing, but I was satisfied.
'The atmosphere is right.'
It was definitely worth asking the VTIC guys to make a bigger fuss on purpose. Because of that, TeStar's behavior looked even more unusual. This was the reaction effect.
And thanks to this funny image firmly attached, it didn't seem like it would be shaken by trivial things for a while.
Then, suddenly, something came to my mind.
'...I can proceed comfortably now.'
I thought it would be okay to gradually carry out the work I had planned from the beginning of this activity.
Then, the first step was to do some preliminary work.
'Let's start by sorting out my payment amount first.'
It was finally time to review the earnings from last year's achievements.

It did not make the jump well at all imo.
