Chapter 51 Not a Weird Person

When I opened my eyes in the morning, I had messages from the PD and the choreographer.

[Kwon Nam-hyung PD] Lee Se, you worked hard yesterday. 2:44 AM

[Kwon Nam-hyung PD] This is the footage of yesterdays stage. I wanted to show you the original before editing. 2:46 AM

*

[My] Lee Se, the demo is done. Please check it. 4:21 AM

[My] You didnt specify who the center is, so I just distributed it based on the parts. 4:22 AM

[My] Please give me feedback if you need any adjustments in the members proportions or difficulty levels. 4:22 AM

Why did they send me this in the middle of the night? I played the video with a lot of questions.

I felt my face burning as I saw myself smiling brightly on the stage, doing my best.

I barely finished watching the stage video and moved on to the choreography demo.

I hope it turned out well

There were five choreographers in the video. They each had a temporary name tag for the members.

The choreography was composed based on the lyrics parts of each member, so there was no one who stood out too much.

It seems okay. I have to trust my eyes.

Since it had been more than four hours since they sent it, I decided to check it slowly and reply.

Theres something I can watch at times like this.

Although the direction was different, Floss was a group under the same agency as Climax.

And they were the undisputed top group of the current generation, so they must have paid a lot of attention to the choreography.

When I searched for Flosss choreography on the video platform, I found the demo video that the choreographer had released.

This side definitely looks more flashy because they have more members.

Floss had nine members. There were three dance specialists. It was not an ordinary thing to lead so many people, let alone having someone like Kang Yugeon who was uncooperative.

It was none of my business how much the other departments suffered. I didnt like Kang Yugeons attitude, but that was the next thing.

I think it would be better to raise the difficulty level a little more.

That was the conclusion I came up with after comparing it with Flosss choreography.

Of course, I had an idea why our choreography was relatively easy.

Flosss members had their strengths and weaknesses relatively exposed through the survival program.

And they also had a part where they verified their skills above a certain level. On the other hand, we didnt have much to show.

If you search, you can find the music show appearance from a year ago

The only thing I could find out from the past videos was that Cheon Yi-ses dance skills were excellent. Thats why I felt like my part was a little busy even though it was easy.

What were our characteristics? I quietly called up the system. Seon-woo was still asleep on the next bed.

System.

Pop. As soon as I called it, a translucent status window appeared in front of me.

Except for Ye-jun, they were all mediocre.

Of course, there was something about the atmosphere on the stage. It seemed that some looked better or worse than their skills when I actually saw them.

Anyway, I thought I could raise my difficulty level a little more, and I thought I could ask Ye-jun to raise his difficulty level too.

And lastly, the center

I made up my mind and made a decision.

I think it would be better to leave it to Seon-woo.

The stage video that the PD sent me before watching the choreography demo had a big impact.

Seon-woo in the video had a charm that drew peoples eyes. 

That was true for Seong-won too. But why did it have to be Seon-woo?

Because it makes me happy to see him.

It wasnt because I favored Seon-woo, but because Seon-woo on the stage kept smiling from the beginning to the end.

On the other hand, Seong-won looked a bit cool compared to Seon-woo who was smiling brightly. It could be a reversal charm that he slightly frowned on his high-pitched part.

But that was something that could be emphasized later when there were more people who liked Seong-won.

It was not a weapon to show off at the last chance to introduce and appeal to us.

Even if its a face I see for the first time, I want to cheer for him. Its this side.

I felt relieved after making the decision.

I sent a thank you message to the PD and a long feedback to the choreographer, and the fatigue that hadnt been relieved came back.

Its natural since I pushed myself so hard yesterday

Even though it was past 9 oclock, there was no sound in the living room. They seemed to be asleep like they were unconscious.

Lets search for some reactions while everyone is quiet.

I quietly closed the door, worried that Seon-woo might wake up from the noise I made, and went to the living room.

[#Rise_FriendIntro]

[#Climax_FriendIntro]

I saw yesterday that the account that posted the photo had shared some posts with these hashtags.

I looked through the posts and it seemed like I accidentally subscribed to one or two of them. When I went to the profile, the following was 0.

What? I thought I subscribed? I wondered and pressed the subscribe button again, only to be blocked.

[No profile subscription account, block account.]

What did I do? 

It was unfair, but I couldnt do anything about it since it was the account users policy.

It seemed like it was time to register the profile of an account that didnt have a profile picture set up.

I went to the accounts that posted the posts and there was a common pattern in the profile description.

[Reciprocal] [Early] [First DM] [INFP] [INTP] [RT-Centered] [Daily Life O]

.

What does this mean?

It looked like a code to the eyes of a forty-something man. Reciprocal? What does that mean, doing something comprehensively? Early? What is that, a elementary school class meeting? I knew what First DM was. I had used DM, or DM, in SNS marketing. It meant first DM, since you wrote the first line.

FriendIntro was. Usually, FriendIntro was used a lot for introducing friends in broadcasting, so I could immediately read that it meant looking for friends.

What are INFP and INTP?

There was too much to know to write a profile.

Fortunately, I wasnt the only one who didnt know, and [A Complete Guide to Fandom Terms] blog posts came up with a few clicks.

After spending about 30 minutes on SNS etiquette and various vocabulary, I bravely started writing my bio.

Bio was a word that meant profile as a self-introduction.

[Beginner Rise / Thank you for reciprocal^^~ First DM welcome^^, Lots of RT INTP]

This much. Isnt it okay? Of course, I didnt know if I was INTP or not. What the hell is MBTI that they like it so much? I should have taken the test.

I searched for an account that I could subscribe to with confidence that I didnt know if I had any evidence or not.

I didnt expect anyone to reciprocate. Why would anyone follow an account that doesnt have any information value?

I subscribed to the agencys announcement account first, and then subscribed to a few accounts that seemed to know something about idols.

I wont be blocked this time, right?

I also changed the profile picture to a Welsh Corgi. Bbosili was cuter, but I couldnt take a picture of Bbosili and upload it.

Fortunately, I wasnt blocked even after about 15 minutes. Good, I was confident and pressed follow for 10 more people.

Wow, three people reciprocated.

Climax itself had such a handful of fandoms that anyone who looked like Rise would reciprocate.

As more people subscribed, the feed started to come up.

[- When will the video of my hometown today come out? I cant wait, hurry up and announce it]

[- Do they make self-content? I thought they would have a lot of content piled up if they were five years old, but why is there nothing?]

[- Yesterdays live was cute, but it was too short sob sob]

[- Theyll be more active when they come back, right?]

[- I know theres no support because theyre unknown, but. At this rate, theyll fall in love with their faces and have nothing to consume and leave]

[- Theres nothing to watch, so Im repeating sighing and looking at the direct shot and sighing again like a drought]

To summarize, they were interested and did FriendIntro, but there was no content to consume, something like that.

There was still about three months left until the comeback. In the meantime, we needed content to hold on to the handful of fans we had gathered.

Its not enough to go out for occasional broadcasts.

Kang Yugeon threw away the schedule he couldnt handle once or twice. 

That was not enough. And reducing the dependence on external factors was an important task for now.

If you look deeply, the direct shot becoming famous and becoming an issue again was also a luck due to external factors.

Lets make self-content.

Like Floss, who did regular live broadcasts every week and broadcast their own entertainment program on YouTube.

We also had to provide content to hold on to the fans until the next comeback.

Its not easy.

I was holding a phone and whining, and soon Seong-won came out of the door.

What?

I looked up at Seong-won, lying on the sofa, and he narrowed his eyes.

Why are you picking a fight.

I didnt say anything.

.

There was a moment of silence and Seong-won ignored me and went straight to the kitchen. The sound of drinking cold water from a glass cup rang out loudly.

Me too, water.

I reached out to the kitchen and a cold glass touched my fingertips with a long sigh.

Oh.

Whats oh again. You asked for water.

No, I didnt know youd really give it to me.

I wish youd be grateful if Ive been eating well all this time.

Oh. I was about to exclaim again, but I stopped and looked at Seong-wons mood.

Now was not the time to pick on everyone who was tired from yesterdays aftermath.

Lets have a planning meeting when the kids wake up later.

It was rare that everyone had no schedule, and Seon-woo also reduced his PT times and today was the day he didnt go to the gym.

Wake up the kids in two hours and have a meeting, so if youre going to sleep again, set an alarm.

Did he hear me or not? 

Anyway, that rude guy. Seong-wons door slammed shut with a loud noise.
