[75] Revenge Girl (8)

MBS broadcasting station 「The Masked Singer」 Waiting room.

One contestant nodded her head as she looked at the performers.

“Today, there is no stage that has as much impact as mine.”

“Yes. You are the best.”

A losing streak that continued winning for three weeks in a row.

A performer who presses down the performers with explosive voice.

The vocals shown by the water-drinking elephant were truly overwhelming.

“Nobody knew I was in a girl group. Hoho.”

“Yeah…”

Currently 18 years old, Seogwang Art High School, 2nd year vocal music department.

Seo Joo-mi’s skills were on the level of a breakaway idol.

She is an unpopular member of Isolation from “Top Idol”.

Hasn’t she been called ‘I, Surin and her friends’?

“Last week, I also beat Ha Yeon-joo sunbaenim.”

“Don’t go anywhere and say that.”

“Never.”

Now that her face is revealed, she has been waiting for the day she will become a superstar.

“Sister, am I going to become like Solar now?”

“No, that’s a bit.”

“Then what about Luna’s Lycia?”

“Um, that’s a bit too.”

“So, then… Our group second?”

“Okay, that can be sorted out.”

“…”

Whoa, was the girl group market originally this tight?

Isolation would be better for overseas recognition.

“Before becoming a top idol, her solar and us were similar.”

“At that time, the class was rather high.”

“It was only around this time last year.”

“Yeah. Now, don’t go anywhere and call me senior than Solar.”

“…”

The most popular mayor is the senior.

Since the release of the SAS album last year, the gap has widened tremendously.

Since then, they have been active in AI girl groups and various entertainment programs.

“Honestly, I’m a bit embarrassed.”

“Huh? What?”

“Is there a member of Solar who sings better than me other than Yeji?”

“… There is none.”

In Solar, the vocal talents are Kim Ye-ji and Shin So-mi.

Among them, Somi is a high-pitched shuttle even if she plays well.

“A singer must sing well to be a singer!”

“Jumiya, lower your voice a little.”

“Oh, I don’t know. I’m the winner three weeks in a row.”

“… Let’s just remove the shoulder pads.”

“Shiroshiro.”

Who will win 4 in a row today and face the water-drinking elephant?

The winner of the last round, the stage he stands on is only once.

On the other hand, the challenger needed 5 consecutive wins to win.

‘… What?’

While watching the competitor on the monitor in the waiting room.

For some reason, my eyes went to one participant.

“Doesn’t God Thunder Squirrel look like a girl group?”

“I don’t know.”

Although the face was covered, it was difficult to hide the unique body shape of a girl group.

“Or maybe a solo idol.”

“Then would you like to sing?”

“Mmm.”

Soon after, with the MC’s introduction, she started her song.

The emperor of ballads, Kim Kang-wook’s 「For You」.

With what kind of confidence did you choose this high song?

I watched her with arms crossed, waiting to see.

“I was happy. The heart I saved for you…”

Kung-

The moment I heard her first line, my heart sank.

It takes five seconds for a singer to capture the listener’s heart.

She often made judgments after hearing only the first line most of the time.

An explosion of sorrowful emotions.

Basic vocalization, pitch, and beat were perfect like a machine.

It naturally melted the sad feelings of a sad ballad song.

I just stayed in the space created by God Thunder Squirrel.

While she was listening to the song, she had no thoughts.

Again-

Around the time when Seo Jumi, who has a lot of sensitivity, sheds tears.

I finished the first verse before I knew it and lowered the mic.

“Go, do you play some God Thunder squirrels?”

“… Jumiya.”

Zumi wiped away her tears and she said briskly.

“Ah, it’s okay.”

It was like meeting a natural disaster.

Next level.

The opponent was bad.

Maybe Squirrel is the main vocal senior of a girl group from the older generation.

She must be one of the solo female singers lined up on the music charts.

“How long would she have practiced with this skill?”

“Well. About 10 years.”

“…”

Perhaps the trainee period is at least 10 years.

She must have practiced for half a day without a break every day.

“I tried hard enough to bleed from my throat.”

“He must have worked harder.”

“Right.”

This is a fair life.

A market where she is rewarded as much as she practices.

‘Ah, it’s a waste.’

She wanted to win four weeks in a row.

Because no matter how senior she is, she can’t let go of her hand and lose.

The water-drinking elephant, Seo Jumi prepared today’s stage.

* * *

Her first performance on stage received a standing ovation and she continued her momentum.

Somi’s vocals pour out emotions like a waterfall.

She’s already challenged for the throne, with her winning 4 wins down.

“Jiyu, are you winning today?”

“I know.”

On the TV in the waiting room, the panelists eagerly guessed Somi’s identity.

-Mr. Squirrel, what is her identity?

– I expect senior Ji-on.

-Ah, the voice is different.

– Oh, who is it?

No one suspected that she was a member of a 4th generation girl group.

Solid basic skills and skillful stage manners.

Those two things were worth it from my point of view.

“By the way, the goal was reached.”

“I know.”

In the first place, after getting 4 wins, she decided to go to a hell party with her solar members.

“Do you know the phone number of producer Kim Ji-hoon of TVM?”

“Yes. Horror Days producer.”

“Let’s set up a meeting with all five Solar guests.”

“There.”

Jiyu asked me with a puzzled expression.

“There’s still one left. A drunk elephant.”

“Huh? But?”

“What are you going to do with 5 wins?”

“What the heck.”

Since there are 5 Solar members, we gathered as a whole.

It is not possible to suddenly increase the number of members.

“What.”

Umjiyu stared at me and smiled.

“I’ll call you on my own. To PD Kim Ji-hoon.”

“Yeah. Do that.”

Looking at Jiu’s eyes, why is it so sinister?

It feels strange that the back of the head tickles.

“Brother, cheer up.”

“?”

What is he saying now.

“The finals begin!”

At that time, the last highlight contest of the day was held.

A water-drinking elephant appeared who took the crown for three weeks in a row.

A female singer who is expected to have learned vocal music.

Although there was no way to know exactly who she was.

“Oppa, is it a girl group?”

“Maybe.”

Almost all girl group members had a certain body type.

A skinny body that looks pretty on a wide TV.

That’s why you don’t look fat on the screen.

‘If Somi wins today…’

Who will be revealed

Subsequently, today’s winners started the contest with the songs they practiced.

-If I can fly.

The song that Somi received in advance was Lay’s “Fly”.

Her soft sensibility was refined more fully.

‘… I guess I’m used to it now.’

Just like being moved by a song that reached the Billboard charts.

I was gradually falling for Somi’s emotional vocals.

The two sang one after another in a relay without a break.

A showdown between two proud geniuses.

A true sword fight between the God Thunder squirrel and the water-drinking elephant.

The two women looked at each other’s masks and nodded.

“…Well done. Both.”

Listening to Somi’s vocals now did not tickle the back of her head.

Solar’s sub vocal was highly praised and recognized by everyone.

Including me

Subsequently, the MC revealed the voting scores of the panel and audience.

– Will God Thunder Squirrel be able to become the number 1 of the day!

Beating, beating—

– We will reveal it in 30 seconds after watching the advertisement!

“Ah-oh.”

The MC continues to speak with the panelists sighing.

It was announced 30 seconds later in the broadcast, but it was announced right away in reality.

-Today’s winner is God Thunder Squirrel! Congratulations!

Somi defeated the winner of 「The Masked Singer」 For 3 weeks in a row and became the new king.

A water-drinking elephant that nodded cleanly in defeat.

She revealed her own face with her MC’s grandiose introduction.

-The identity of the water-drinking elephant… Was Isolation’s main vocalist, Seo Joo-mi!

I really didn’t expect it.

Did you sing that well?

– Mr. Jumi, please tell me about your impressions.

-Ah… It was a happy time.

Seo Joo-mi looked at So-mi and smiled at her.

– My efforts were not enough. I will work hard while watching the squirrel.

He is also very talented.

– Senior, I will continue to support you!

“Yes?”

What is it, isn’t isolation your senior?

And Somi is a junior at Seogwang Arts High School.

* * *

The house, USA, LA.

A special visitor came to the RSB record production company building.

Director Robinson, a Hollywood master, visited in person.

“As expected, Finn Brown, you’re a genius.”

“It’s overrated.”

“Did it just go in and out of my head? How did you find exactly the song I was looking for?”

“hahahaha. I’m glad.”

In fact, I was worried a lot when I sent the reference.

How easy is it to express music with text?

‘As expected, producer Dohana is…’

Talented enough to satisfy Hollywood giants.

Rather, she was curious about what was going on in her head.

“The sound is so intuitive that it sticks to my ears.”

“I agree.”

A film for all ages, from teens to 40s.

Popularity was more important than maniac sound.

It was necessary to achieve maximum effect with minimum materials.

In other words, it was expressed plainly as a whole without adding complicated techniques.

“I paid a lot of attention to the instrument and even the scale.”

“Yes. I can feel the trouble.”

“Where did you find such talent?”

“Ahahahaha.”

I was very lucky to have found Dohana on Sound Cloud.

Maybe she stayed up all night making beats and left behind this masterpiece.

A producer contracted with a small Korean company.

Her only information about her was her name and age.

‘I’m only twenty years old…’

She is 21 years old in Korean age.

The possibilities for her development were endless.

Suddenly, the person she assumed to have raised her came to mind.

‘Chief Jeong Soo-ho.’

There’s no way he doesn’t know Dohana’s skills.

Although she expected to offer outrageous conditions.

“…You mean you only offered this amount?”

“Yes. Director.”

“The production cost is tight.”

“…”

It’s not like you don’t know the scale of Hollywood.

In order for such a person to raise a genius named Dohana.

“hahahaha. That friend is a master of push and pull.”

“I guess so.”

It could have been taken as a sign that they wanted to continue working together.

‘I was looking for a role in Royland…’

A healing movie based on music 「Royland」.

It was a movie where singing was as important as acting.

Even if I couldn’t confirm it, I was able to arrange a seat.

‘Virtual girl group LOKA’s…’

Suddenly, I remembered Kim Ye-ji, who was on the stage of 「League」.

They say you are the leader of a girl group raised by team leader Jeong Su-ho.

I don’t think I can do well with such vocals and acting.

“Oh, if it’s Royland…”

“It’s director Andrew’s work.”

“Are you okay?”

“I can give you a chance, but it’s up to you to seize it.”

“That’s right. Ha ha.”

First of all, we should focus on working on the sequel to Mjolnir.

Because it doesn’t end just because there are good songs.

* * *

“Finn Brown, who is this?”

I heard that you gave me a lot of down payment for Dohana’s music.

He says he’s looking for a good spot in Hollywood.

“…Are you a golden goblin?”

First of all, if you give it a chance, you can’t take it.

It was thanks to Ddongchok that I met him.

“Brother!”

At that time, Jiyu called me and slowly approached me.

“Did you see the main trailer on Youtube?”

“Oh, of course I saw it.”

The main trailer for the movie “Revenge Girl” Has been released.

Besides, look at the number of theaters secured by CinemaGo.

“What if we really hit the jackpot?”

“… What can I do?”

“Oppa, isn’t this how Q&G creates 10 million actors?”

“Let’s not get excited.”

Because a movie is not a few episodes like a drama.

The topicality through the audience was important.

“The response to the trailer was great.”

“Yeah. I saw it too.”

Solar fans, as well as the general public, had high expectations.

“The release date has been confirmed…”

There was nothing more we could do

At most, the extent to which the members advertise on SNS or variety shows.

In future entertainment programs, I will focus on publicity.

“First of all, upload a link to the movie trailer on Solar Nurtube=.”

“Okay.”

“What is Solar SNS?”

“Inbyeolgram and Youtube channel are over.”

“Well.”

I wish it had been made ahead of time.

“Let’s publicize Yang Joo-hee’s first shooting for Dancing Street.”

“Yeah. But other than that, shooting Horror Days comes first.”

“Oh, yes.”

A broadcast featuring all Solar members.

Didn’t you already promote it on You Tube?

“The chief reported it above. All six people are appearing.”

“Yeah. Well done… 6 people?”

Did Solar become 6 members without me knowing?

Isn’t the increase in one person a staple in horror movies?

“Suho.”

At that time, at the entrance of the office, Director Park Cheol-min called me.

“The director of Horror Days has been approved.”

“Ah yes.”

“How did you decide to appear? You must have heard the taste of the show.”

“?”

Soon, Jiyu, beside him, was startled and covered his mouth.

“Ah, I guess Suho oppa didn’t know he was appearing.”

“Why me.”

“Because they said that if Somi won, she would appear.”

“?”

What kind of bullshit is that

“You won 5 wins in addition, one person per win.”

“… Ah.”

“PD Kim Ji-hoon is already preparing.”

“Shooting?”

“Yeah, Solar appears as a whole! But now with team leader Jung Soo-ho.”

“Why are you bringing me there?”

Director Park tapped my shoulder with one hand, the size of a pot lid.

“Son, to be ashamed.”

The dancing machine has already been stuffed.

Going to a horror entertainment show?

“Chief, I must get married too.”

“Honey, when I was young, I appeared on TV and did that too.”

“… No.”

I’ve already appeared a lot.

* * *

Tvm 「Horror Days」 Shooting day.

Late at night.

Umjiyu stopped the van near the shop and smiled.

Just in time, the Solar members and Team Leader Jeong came down from the shop.

“Suho oppa.”

A neighborhood hyung I know makes me dance.

I sent it out even when I didn’t want to.

How much did Uhm Jae-ha giggle while watching his broadcast?

Drooling-

Soon after, Jeong Su-ho came in wearing celebrity makeup.

For today, he sat in the back seat with Solar members.

“Our artists, then shall we go?”

“Jiyu, did you weave it from the beginning?”

“What?”

“No, you can’t do that to me.”

“Lol.”

Isn’t it a warm heart as a junior?

“Then I’ll set out.”

Umji Yu smiled and took the steering wheel of her.

Then, she checked Suho’s expression through the rearview mirror.

After a while,

The van carrying the members arrived at Gwigok Mountain Lodge.

I parked the car in a bleak mountain.

“What is it? It’s raining all of a sudden.”

“Do you have an umbrella?”

“Yes. I’m ready.”

Shoot ah-

In the dark mountain, the raindrops fell patter.

“Chief, let’s go in first.”

“… Why me.”

The members clung to Suho’s back.
