A Regression Guide for Idols Who Lost Their Initial Intentions Episode 149
Rev’s 3rd mini album ‘Reverse’ scheduler and concept photos were pre-released.
The first photo was a group shot of Rev with reflection effects added.
Yuje sitting upright in the center of a luxurious sofa, dressed neatly in uniform.
Yoon Eden to Yuje’s right, legs crossed, arrogantly leaning back against the sofa with one hand gripping Yuje’s arm.
Seo Yehyeon to Yuje’s left, elbow resting on the sofa armrest with his chin propped up. His shoe-clad legs stretched straight out, blocking in front of Yuje’s feet.
Gyeon Hajun standing behind the sofa in uniform, both hands placed on Yuje’s shoulders, gazing straight ahead with a smile.
Kim Dobin on the far right, sitting sideways on the armrest next to Yoon Eden with his arms crossed.
And the photo reflected beneath each of their feet showed them in reversed form wearing group uniforms instead of individual uniforms.
Though the poses were the same, while the uniform group photo had a refined feeling, the group uniform photo had a more free-spirited feeling. The luxurious sofa had also changed to a bench.
The second photo was Rev’s group mugshot.
The Rev members in orange prisoner jumpsuits were holding boards with their names and prisoner numbers, each striking their own pose.
The way they wore their jumpsuits varied as much as their poses – some rolling up sleeves or taking off the top half and tying it around their waist.
-OMG Jaehee has silver hair!! Yehyeon has platinum blonde!! Eden has black hair!! Dobin has burgundy!! But why is Hajun brown-haired again ㅠ Please let Hajun dye his hair too
-I’m relieved this time’s quality isn’t at My Universe level again
└That’s ancient history, My Universe,,,
└Those who haven’t experienced it, speak not
-Wait when did Yuje get so tall? He still had that cute look during but other people’s kids really do grow up fast…
-This concept somehow feels like it’s going to be a masterpiece
The teaser released a day after the concept photos bore a member’s name, announcing that teasers for all five members would be released in sequence.
[Reve(Rev) – ‘Reverse’ Official Teaser #YUJE ver.]
The thumbnail showed Yuje standing with his back to prisoners who were reaching their hands through prison bars.
When played, a dim light spread across a blackened screen, then Yuje appeared walking in front of a prison holding inmates, spinning handcuffs around his finger. An ominous melody flowed slowly.
The screen flickered, and Yuje in prisoner clothes gripping the bars appeared very briefly.
The screen flickered again and Yuje in uniform was walking in front of the bars again.
With each step, Rev members also in uniform patted his shoulder as they passed by.
At the end of the hallway was a door.
Yuje stood before a door marked with ⚠WARNING, hesitated, then carefully entered a password and opened the door. The screen turned black as it illuminated the darkness beyond the door Yuje had passed through.
[REVE – Reverse]
[05.11.WED PM 6:00]
-I seriously get startled every time I see Jaehee’s face, our youngest member became a man
-Where did our small and cute hamster go, what kind of nutria is this….
-Fuck, nutria lol so ridiculous lol
Exactly 24 hours later, the second teaser starring Doby was uploaded to the official channel.
[Reve(Rev) – ‘Reverse’ Official Teaser #DOBIN ver.]
The thumbnail showed Doby’s face blowing bubble gum.
When the video played, Doby was leaning against a graffiti-covered wall with a hip bag, then put his hands in his pockets and started walking.
After blowing pink bubble gum to its limit and popping it, Doby approached someone in uniform.
Their shoulders seemed to bump, and as the uniformed man turned around sharply, Doby smiled cheekily and offered an apology.
When he put his hand in his pocket and pulled it out, he was holding a master key engraved with the emblem from the uniform cap.
Doby entered an alley chewing gum, then came back out pulling up his hood. His clothes had somehow changed to the group uniform from the concept photos.
The camera that entered the alley showed a hip bag dropped on the floor and Doby’s previous clothes half-stuffed into the bag and scattered on the ground.
Doby’s figure grew distant as he passed the uniformed man again, nonchalantly blowing bubble gum, and the screen faded to black.
-From phantom thief to pickpocket, what a status downgrade
-Supporting actor Doby is back again
-Isn’t that uniform the same one Yuje was wearing? Are they in opposition?
The third day’s teaser starred Hajun.
[Reve(Rev) – ‘Reverse’ Official Teaser #HAJUN ver.]
The thumbnail was Hajun in a wet state, submerged in a bathtub with only his upper body visible.
The camera swept around the room once, showing a luxurious bathtub. A slow melody began flowing with a slightly ominous feeling.
Uniformed men roughly opened the door, confirmed no one was in the room, and withdrew.
When the door closed, the camera showed inside the bathtub. Hajun, who had been submerged underwater, swept back his wet hair and raised his upper body.
His white shirt was soaked, revealing his physique completely. Hajun, who had been holding his breath, exhaled and rose from the bathtub, dripping water as he headed toward an antique telephone.
His veined hand gripping the receiver and turning the dial was shown in close-up, then the sound of pounding on the door was heard again.
The door burst open. The camera showed the wide-open window and empty room as the screen faded out.
-Insane physique insane wet shirt insane wet curly hair insane
-Who told Gyeon Hajun to seduce people by getting so sexily wet
-Wow I seriously watched without breathing, the atmosphere is amazing
The fourth day’s teaser was claimed by Eden.
[Reve(Rev) – ‘Reverse’ Official Teaser #EDEN ver.]
The thumbnail showed Eden gripping a sports car’s steering wheel.
When played, Eden had a toothpick in his mouth and sunglasses on, one arm hanging over the window frame while gripping the steering wheel with one hand, and tapped the Bluetooth wireless earphone in his ear.
Intense drum beats began to resound.
Eden’s jawline as he spoke briefly into the radio and his foot pressing hard on the accelerator passed by in sequence.
The camera gradually pulled back, capturing the sports car driving on an overseas coastal road in an aerial shot.
A military vehicle chasing behind was also captured in the same frame.
The emblem of a uniform cap reflected in the military vehicle’s rearview mirror, and as the mirror sparkled in the sunlight, Eden’s eyes and tear mole appeared reflected in the open sports car’s rearview mirror.
Hands sharply turning the wheel, foot hitting the brakes, corners of his mouth rising coolly, foot heading back to the accelerator.
The camera swept over each in turn, then captured the sports car charging at high speed in the wrong direction toward the pursuing vehicle as the screen transitioned.
The two vehicles collided head-on, and the screen turned black with a massive explosion sound and flames as the finale.
-What? Why are they only showing our kid in a traffic accident scene? Eden, you’re alive right…
-Isn’t the fault 100 to 0? Of course Eden is the 100
-Ah insane look at him rolling up his sleeves to show his arm muscles
-Phobos selected most sexy man gripping a steering wheel, 1st place
Thanks to the movie-like visuals combined with action, Eden’s teaser received the most explosive reaction among all the teasers released so far.
Now only the release of Yehyeon’s teaser remained. Since the other members’ teasers had turned out quite well, anticipation for visual member Yehyeon’s teaser only grew larger.
Miss Kim, who accessed SNS to write her review after watching Eden’s teaser about twenty times, blinked at the posts appearing on her timeline.

“What is this…”
Her eyes trembled wildly as she looked at the shocking news posted on Twitter.

Reve Music Source Leak
* * *
“Fuck, what is this?”
After finishing practice and returning to the dormitory, I checked the messages right after showering and curses automatically spilled from my mouth.
The system eagerly cut my initial intentions, but I was so furious I couldn’t even feel the pain.
[Manager Hyung- Need to go to the company right now because of the music source leak so get ready] 6:01 PM
I roughly swept up my still-damp bangs and exploded in anger.
“These bastards who think copyright is fucking nothing!”
[Profanity detected.]
[Initial Intentions –2]
Oh, right. I cursed exactly three times, but thanks for only cutting it once.
Thanks to the system’s mercy, my anger was somewhat dampened, but that didn’t mean my rage subsided easily.
A music source leak was something I was experiencing for the first time too. This kind of thing never happened to Reve before my regression.
‘Damn, was it leaked from inside or outside?’
What’s the point of going back in time when I keep encountering things for the first time. My head was throbbing from excessive stress.
I needed to go to the agency first, so just as I was about to send a message to the Reve group chat to tell the members who were waiting their turn to shower, I spotted Ryu Jaehee coming out of his room after washing his face dry.
As soon as our eyes met, Ryu Jaehee must have sensed something was seriously wrong from my expression and asked.
“Did you see it too, hyung?”
“What, the music source leak? I didn’t see it but got word about it. We need to go to the company now so don’t change clothes and stay put. There’s no time to shower, so if you really feel gross just change your clothes.”
“I don’t want to add to the laundry so I’ll just wear these clothes.”
Ryu Jaehee’s gaze was fixed on his cell phone screen, apparently monitoring in real-time.
Kim Dobin must have immediately checked the message I sent because he came bursting out of his room screaming at the top of his lungs.
“A leak? A music source leak? What the hell is going on? Wasn’t our music source release the day after tomorrow?”
“I’m already pissed off enough so don’t make a fuss and just sit quietly, Dobin.”
When I frowned and pointed at the sofa, Kim Dobin closed his mouth and obediently sat on the sofa. Gyeon Hajun, who had already changed clothes, also came out of his room and knocked loudly on the tightly closed bathroom door.
-What!
From inside the bathroom came the sound of water along with Seo Yehyeon’s irritated question.
“Hyung, something’s happened so finish your shower and come out in 5 minutes!”
-What? 5 minutes is too short!
“5 minutes, 10 minutes, whatever, just finish quickly and come out.”
After conveying the message to Seo Yehyeon too, I came back to the sofa and plopped down.
“At least assess the situation and explain what’s going on.”
As I leaned back against the sofa and gestured with a sunken voice, Ryu Jaehee, who unusually had a dark expression, opened his mouth in a heavy voice.
“The situation is the worst right now.”
