Chapter 291 – Episode 274 Idol Members Formed! ~Revival of the Indie Scene Or…?
Monday preliminary meeting.
Before the filming of [Anyone Is a Street Idol] Begins in earnest, there was time to check the faces of the idol members who were cast over the weekend.
Softly, softly. The waiting room at Maeil TV headquarters feels a little cold with the air-conditioned breeze blowing through the small space to make it feel fresh.
Upon entering there, Umi was able to see who the other [Anyone Street Idol] Members were.
“… What. Umi, why are you here… ?”
“Is that what I want to say?”
It’s a familiar face.
“Even if Gina is like that, Heeju, how did you get cast on the street?”
Heeju and Gina, who arrived first, were sitting in the waiting room.
With a height difference of more than 20 centimeters, the visuals of the two people are so far apart that it is hard to believe that they were selected as members of the same idol.
Unlike Gina, who tied her hair back into a ponytail as the weather got warmer, her maturity was radiating, while Heeju, in her bare attire and short jeans, looked like a kid out in her neighborhood to run errands. It looks like
It looks like Gina has a very young sister… Surprisingly, she is the same age as Umi.
A little girl who is cute, but doesn’t fit the sexy concept or the innocent concept or anything, and even Hee-joo due to her good looks gets cast…
It’s becoming increasingly difficult to understand the purpose of [Everyone is a street idol].
However, Heeju responded with a confident expression as if there was no problem.
“Swimming! Of course! Even after all this, the number of subscribers is gradually increasing, and the YouTuber is definitely a quasi-broadcaster! If you ask me, the person with the highest recognition among the people here is me! Page. White. Main. It’s you!”
“…”
She is shouting proudly, but compared to Umi, she is just a head taller. Considering that standard idol units are organized around people of similar height, taking into account each other’s height differences as much as possible, this is quite an unconventional composition.
Unlike Gina, who deserves the title of engineering goddess, and Hina, who displays her talents in many ways – Heeju’s appearance, which only seems to be liked by dangerous adults, did not fit the image of an idol unit that Umi had in mind. Br〉
Just looking at it, it feels like no matter what choreography Heejoo is asked to do, she will look like her kids’ prankster rather than a full-fledged girl group member.
“… That’s it, and an idol is an idol. Idol with that look… Is it possible?”
“It’s possible, but I received a mission card and there’s nothing I can do about it. Umi, isn’t it the same for you too?”
“… That’s right.”
I am aware of it in my own way.
Heeju’s answer to that was not filled with a strong sense of superiority or inferiority, but rather seemed to have a good understanding of the current situation.
Okay… If you think about it, it’s not like she appeared on [Everyone’s a Street Idol] Because Umi is good too. Since she received a mission card, she was forced to agree.
“I noticed it from the moment Heeju’s business card, or rather the mission card, said it was a cooperative mission. Umi, I never thought you would be cast as an idol… It’s okay, even if something happens on TV… ?”
“Well, honestly, it’s not okay at all.”
“… What is it, sister?”
While Umi was responding to Gina’s concerns, Hina intervened.
“Do you already know these people? Awesome.”
Come to think of it, Hina was also there. She was quiet for some reason, so I forgot about it for a moment.
“Uh, uh… She is a senior friend from the same university…”
“What! Same university as your sister?! Hmm! Nice to meet you! This is Umi’s younger sister, Park Hina! I’m going to be in charge of rap/dance on [Everyone’s a Street Idol], Piece!”
“Oh, hello.”
“… Is it true that her personality is 180 degrees different from Woomi?”
Gippalli listened to Hina’s self-introduction, and Heeju and Gina exchanged eye contact. Then she flinched. Gina reacted.
“Hmm?”
“… !”
As soon as Hina and her eyes met, she shook her head and turned away.
Hina’s eyes become sharp at her rude attitude even though it is her first time seeing her.
Cum!
Hina tilts her head once again in the opposite direction she is looking at. She is filming a skit as if she is doing Cham Cham Cham
“Sister, what is this sister like Kingka…?” ? She didn’t even try to make eye contact with me from earlier? Hina, a little hurt… Have we met somewhere before?”
“The, the, the writing, I don’t know… ? Is it because of my mood? I’m shyer than I thought… !”
I have met you somewhere before. It is also a relationship as old as Umi.
There is no way I can forget Hina’s face.
On the day when Umi first transformed into a magical girl, Gina was there to help Hina with her uterine detachment to heal her wounded body.
Therefore, when she sees Hina’s face, she cannot help but be reminded of that image in Gina’s mind.
Umi’s pickled uterus, thickly soaked in the saliva that came out of Hina’s mouth with a popping sound.
It’s also a flashback to her own experience.
“Hinaya-senpai is feeling burdened, so leave it at that.”
Seeing Gina desperately avoiding Hina’s eyes, Umi figured out her cause and took action first.
“Yeah! All right. “I was already so excited at the thought of doing an idol stage with these two pretty girls, so I couldn’t help it!”
“Why did you give me a vague question from earlier?”
Hee-ju asked a question as if she was displeased, but Hina was soon called out by an entertainment writer who appeared in her waiting room with only her head peeking out.
“Can you come in order, Hina first? Not all the members have arrived yet, but I’d like to take some profile pictures of those who came in advance. And we also do individual interviews one by one.”
“It’s here! Sister! Then I’ll come with you!”
“Uh, uhh.”
After sending Hina off, Gina and Heeju took a breather and sat down near Umi.
A situation has finally been created where magical girl stories can be told openly.
“… Magic Girl. Are you still hiding it from her brother?”
In response to Gina’s question, Umi nodded her head.
“[Everyone is a street idol]… There may be such a plan, but a week is not enough, so I thought it was a plan that made no sense. Come to think of it, the mission card period is only one week, right? I was completely fooled.”
“Hey. Aside from that, Gina, you looked extremely happy when you were first cast.”
“… I never imagined that idol casting would become a subject of mission cards. Moreover, I am no longer a magical girl.”
Gina made an ambiguous expression, perhaps feeling a little resentful of the fact that she had been cast as a bonus for Heeju, who was next to her.
“The mission card scam has begun again.”
“Anyway, it’s a big deal. If you became an idol with a mission card, then Heeju and Umi, too… “You have to appear in front of people with such a ridiculous appearance.”
“Tsk…”
Woomi and Heeju both shed tears at Gina’s point.
“You said it would end with attending the stadium stage on Sunday evening, right? How many people came to that?”
“[Maeil TV Show Song Festival] The number of attendees last time was… “It comes out to be 45,000 people.”
“40, 45,000 people?!?!”
After finishing the search on her smartphone, Umi’s face turned pale when she heard Gina’s answer.
“W-that’s ridiculous… ! It’s impossible to stand up in front of so many people and dance and sing normally, but being out of the womb… !!”
“You can at least cover it up with a skirt, but Bo Tae-bae can’t even do that. They say it’s doubtful whether they can wear idol costumes properly. Me indeed. “Whose idea did Bo Tae-bae come from as an idol?”
Definitely.
Hee-ju, whose stomach is swollen like a balloon, is an idol, and her appearance on stage is probably more shocking than Woo-mi’s appearance on stage, as she has become a post-womb idol.
Even with a simple choreography, it is obvious that the round belly button will catch the audience’s attention and shake violently up and down, and it will not be easy to sing a single line of the song with the swollen belly pressing up and down on the lungs or hips.
No, from the moment Heeju appeared on stage as Bo Tae-bae’s idol, be it dancing or singing, it felt like broadcasting was abolished.
“Well, after all, I’m an idol… Wouldn’t it be better to quit? My dreams are still disturbed…”
“Can you give up?”
“Considering that you will receive a mission card penalty, you may be able to give up on the mission. But… Considering that the mission card does not yet indicate what penalty you will receive, wouldn’t it be possible to give up only when all the magical girls who will be performing the cooperative mission gather together?”
“… “Are you saying there are other magical girls besides the two of us who can perform cooperative missions?”
The moment when Woomi expresses disapproval at Heeju’s words.
Suddenly.
The door to the waiting room opened and a magical girl who was not good enough came in.
A magical girl with blue hair and a loose style.
“Hi! Everyone is gathered together!”
“… Naru unnie…”
In addition to the uterus that was to be removed, the belly that was to be added, and the magical girl that was able to excrete her personality,
An Avengers-level lineup that will make your heart sink.
“Are we doing idols?! And! Just thinking about it makes my heart flutter… !”
“Now, wait a minute! Naru, come here and sit down. Let’s talk together… !”
Umi stood up to explain to Naru, who just happened to come in, how nonsensical this cooperative mission was.
But Naru wasn’t the only one who came into the waiting room.
“Holy sh*t! Who is this! My friend! Umi!”
“Yes… “Is it Yeri?”
“Are all the members here except Hina, who is being interviewed by this? Nice to meet you. This is producer Na Young-ho, who was in charge of filming [Everyone is a Street Idol].”
The person who followed Naru was.
Metal Kids, who eat foreign material through their ears and speak English with a unique accent,
Seo Yeri, the strongest individualist among Woomi’s high school friends.
And.
It was the broadcasting station PD who handed out business cards disguised as mission cards yesterday.
It seemed that a total of six idol members would join. By the way.
“Yeri, were you cast as an idol too?”
“Yes!”
“Uh, why… ?”
The first question that comes to mind when looking at other magical girls.
That’s Seo Yeri, a single-minded person who criticized the music industry for only lyrics about love and breakups, and who only sold dark, heavy, macho-scented metal music throughout her high school days…
It was decided that there was no way she would readily agree to join a fresh and soft idol unit.
“Ah. Seo Yeri is in charge of the screaming/growling part in this Idol.”
“Yesssss?”
Why do idols need something like that?
“Producer Na Young-ho? ‘Blooming Love’ by our Cherry Keyboard… “Didn’t you say you would call me?”
“You’re right. However, a somewhat metal arrangement will be attempted utilizing Seo Yeri’s parts.”
“Why do you need a metal arrangement for a refreshing and lively song?”
“That…”
Seo Yeri shook her head, interrupting the PD’s answer.
“Daintiness. Look into my eyes.”
“… “Eyes?”
Yeri’s voice, which always seems to be running wild, is as calm and serious as a leaf on the water this time.
“These eyes contain the souls of countless metal artists who have been sad in the shadows for not being able to emerge as mainstream Korean music.”
“… “What?”
“I have thought it was unfair for a long time. I was still only four or five years old… ! I’m talking about how the indie band world, which I was passionate about and supported, fell into decline because of the [Live music camp genital exposure incident]… !”
Genital exposure incident at a live music camp.
It was an unprecedented event that had an impact on the Korean music and broadcasting industries.
At a time when indie bands were appearing on terrestrial broadcasters and gradually starting to make their names known, this incident, in which an unprecedented undressing scene was broadcast across the country on live broadcast, poured cold water on the indie scene and the broadcasting industry.
“I will do anything to bring back the glorious golden age of indie bands to the Korean music industry… ! Even if it becomes IDOL, the antithesis of my music… !”
Seo Yeri seemed to be planning to use this opportunity to spark the indie scene again.
“… I don’t know if it’s anyone else, but wow! I’m glad my friend is with me! Umi, you would understand me!”
“Ah oh… Therefore… !”
“Daintiness! Become a metal idol with me!”
Yeri’s fighting spirit instantly fills the waiting room with the passionate soul of metal people.
In a situation where she couldn’t say that she would quit being an idol, Umi looked like she was going to cry.
No, Yeri…
If this continues, let alone the revival of the indie scene, it will be Season 2 of [Live Music Camp Genital Exposure Incident]…
