Game Market 1983

Oh, yeah!! Oww!!!

“Ugh… this is…”

When Shin Hae-chul's voice echoed in the cramped office, along with the boiling of blood, Terrada and everyone in the office looked at the speakers on their own.

Even as I live a short life,

We feel so sorry for each other!

All the days I still have left.

I want to share it with you!

Even if I lose everything I love!!

I can't give up on you!!

“Wow… what the hell is that song, Director? I can feel my fingertips tingling just by listening. ”

Maurita, who was sitting next to me, asked me, amazed.

“This song was won at a university yoga festival in Korea in '88. ”

“Something is very good. The feeling of cheerfulness and loveliness is completely different from Japanese music. ”

“Isn't that right?"

On Morita's solemn assessment, I raised my jaw.

Even if you don't understand lyrics, it doesn't matter. The whole genre of music is already a universal language.

And as proof of that, Mr. Terrada was also listening to the song of infinite orbits frozen in front of the speakers.

“In Korea, was this the birth of music in '88? ”

“I'm currently a leader in a group called N.EX.T. Next is also a group that I really like. ”

“I don't know the Korean lyrics, but I've had a tremendous immersion since the previous week. ”

Therada listened to a few more songs that continued ever since, and sat across from the couch where Morita and I were sitting.

“Well... I was impressed, to be honest. As expected, music has the power to move people's minds. Thanks to you, I'm really happy to know a good song. LOVE & PEACE. ”

All of a sudden, LOVE & PEACE, you're a little unusual, like Mr. Ueno said.

Moreover, he speaks standard language, but sometimes his accent or tone is not communicative because of the dialect of the official province.

However, the moment you handed over the profiles of the participants who auditioned for Virtual Idol. He certainly began to show more of a producer than a musician.

After taking all the demo videos of each participant, he turned the tape around again, numbering several girls who seemed likely.

Some of our Pentagon employees were then removed from his screening.

“Wasn't that a good four and seven? He doesn't have a bad voice, and he can do some high-pitching...”

Then Terada surprisingly gave me a simple answer.

“I don't have a smile. ”

“Yes?”

“Idol is in a slightly different position than a normal singer. There are more singers than Idol. However, Idol is always exposed to the rankings of popular albums. Do you know why that is? ”

“Why…? ”

“The public doesn't really care about the songs of the idol group. ‘I can't listen to this.’ If it's not enough, it just goes away. Instead, what they really report is something else. ”

“What's that? ”

“Looks.”

What is this? The stone orb that flew at this speed?

Then Uchimura, who was next to me, asked Terada in a puzzling voice.

“But the seven times I just dropped it, or the 13 times my voice dropped it, it looked pretty bad. ”

“I just told you, there's one thing I have in common with those I dropped. ”

“Common ground? I don't know. Do you know the director? ”

I opened my mouth to Mr. Terrada, who was blinking for a moment at Morita's words when she asked me a few questions.

“Except for Mr. Terrada, the participants didn't smile at the camera. ”

Then Terrada flicked her fingers and shouted, terrified to the end of what I was saying.

“That's it!! You've got a good eye!! ”

Oh... Shut up. I can't hear you. You're right in front of him. Why is he reacting so big...?

“The word idol means‘ idol. ’And that idol is the definition of admiration. Anyone can do anything on TV to impress a singer with a song and a voice. But the idol has to show something that goes beyond the voice. No, we must tell him. The thumping and excitement of people watching themselves outside the TV!!! To do that, a smile is paramount. Idol's first condition is not to lose his smile in any adversity. ”

As if I were preaching a religion, he suddenly asked the office staff for some cold water to spit on Maurita and said again.

“In that sense, the 11 participants who best fit my intent are the 11 participants who have been checked in here. ”

When I received Terrada's confusing paper letter with a very solemn expression, I took a moment to look back and check his checked entry numbers.

"Phew... Luckily, Kanna survived number nine. I mean, how is that even possible? ’

Kanna was a type of ‘wildcard’ in which I, the host, was specifically nominated for the nomination.

Having been approved to film a street performance on the condition that I never show my face but only my voice, I showed the final screening data about her to employees, and Kanna was unanimously added to the audition before the meeting room, including Mr. Kawaguchi.

In fact, even if she hadn't auditioned, the rumor had spread that there was a singer-songwriter singing lyrics to the ‘Gift of God’ endings inside the Pentagon, so she might have already won the audition.

Morita, who was reviewing the documents together, asked me with a cautious tone.

“But if you were 11, how many of these characters would you be angry with? ”

Maurita seems to be more concerned about her workload than expected. So I opened my mouth, smiling warmly at him as always.

“Eleven of them. ”

“Ugh... 11 of them!? ”

Then Terada quietly applauded my decision.

“That's a very sensible choice. The eleven I've chosen are the owners of a truly unique set of charms. ”

After just playing the video a few times, there was tremendous confidence in Terada's face.

When Morita took my side even on Terrada, she came out with a ridiculous look and channeled her voice.

“No, if 11 people sing as a team, that's the choir, right, singer? ”

“That's okay. We'll just take turns and hand out the parts. ”

“Huff... The songs you sing are usually 3-4 minutes long, but apart from Jeonju and Ji-won, does that mean that you have an average of 10 seconds or less to get up on stage and sing?" What kind of singer is that? ”

“What did you just hear, Mauritata? The public doesn't care about their songs; there are 11 unique idol groups that will be more enthusiastic than a normal group of 3-4. Wouldn't that be nice, you know, like," I didn't know what you liked, so I prepared everything. "”

“No, the Idol Group is not a buffet restaurant...”

Maurita tried to convince me somehow to stay out of trouble, but every time I did, I was caught up in Terrada's rebuttal, and I ended up with 11 illustrators.

Morita's cries echoed out of the sunset window one day in a cramped office.

After a while. A way to get Mauritata next door to her house. Earlier, Morita mutters to herself, looking out the window.

I wanted to hear what he was saying, so I turned down the radio volume, and I heard something he was saying.

“Heeheehee... Uchimura. If we die, we die together. Bury the bones on the Pentagon's second team...”

Heeheehee... Did you finally choose a companion? Well, in the old days, if you can't help it, enjoy it.

I shook my head to the left and to the right, thinking of Uchimura, who is about to make a figure without knowing anything.

&

After taking Morita home, Yuki held Seohyun in her arms and opened the door.

“Welcome. Joon Hyuk. Seol Hyun! I met my dad!"

Just when Yuki was in the hospital, the family that felt so sluggish finally felt like a human being.

When I shook Seohyun's little hand, shaking it up and down, he smiled at me with a big smile.

“Hurry up and wash up. I made dinner for you. ”

“Yes, you were surprised by the earthquake earlier today, right? ”

“Don't say that. I was worried that I would have to run out of the door with Seohyun in my arms. It's a good thing we don't have a day. If I had been here all day, I would have run away with one in each arm...”

My cat 'A day’ is living in my mother-in-law's house soon after Seohyun was born.

Unlike the puppy who insists on playing surprisingly, the cat never harms the baby, but I had to send a feast to my mother-in-law's house far away just in case.

After putting Seohyun on the bed, Yuki took my suit instead and asked me.

“Did Kanna pass the final audition for Mr. Terrada's advice? ”

“Yes, of course. ”

“Oh, thank God. So you get a Kanna-motivated illustration and voice from a game called Virtual Idol that was released with" Complete Raon "like Joon-Hyuk said before? ”

“Probably, right? But I think 10 more people will be accepted than Kanna, and eventually 11 will become one group...”

“Th-there are 11 of us...? ”

Yuki also looked embarrassed by the number of people he could not imagine.

I stroked her head for a moment before heading to the bathhouse.

Yuki soaked his whole body in the hot water prepared for him, and my senses curled up with the feeling of his whole body's muscles spreading out.

I closed my eyes for a moment and slowly opened my eyes when I thought about the 'earthquake’ that happened this morning while I was drawing in my head members of the Pentagon who were planning the 'Virtue Idol’ project together.

‘Certainly not from talent, but from natural disasters, depending on various environmental factors, the time of occurrence may change a bit. But with the seismic activity, maybe in the next few days, there will be a catastrophe called Kobe Earthquake... "

And my guess is that the next day at 5: 28 a.m.

Correct.
