Regression Manual for Idols Who Lost Their Original Intent Chapter 316
-First off, the teaser passes
-Hip hop and traditional music fusion? Good for real
-Now we just need the full version of the song to be as good as expected, please just meet the expectations that Cheongryuga briefly showed us in the teaser
-Eden overcame his slump and got wings
-Really came out sharpening his knife, double title is crazy
-Cheongryuga is so my style from the teaser… modern hanbok is so my taste…
-I thought Yeonhaga was a bit monotonous? Boring? But Cheongryuga fills that gap
-The beat is killer, as expected from Yoon Eden
-23 hours and 51 minutes left until music video and song release
The teaser for 【Cheongryuga 】 caused a much hotter response than when the teaser for 【Yeonhaga 】 was released. Except for the usual tiny minority of trolls and complaints, most reactions were positive.
It succeeded in creating a strong and fresh image with a fusion of hip hop and traditional music rather than ordinary oriental style, and sufficiently met the level expected from the narrative of overcoming a slump.
But did the so-called ‘DTB addicts’ who followed from DTB fall away from this conceptual teaser, Yoon Eden’s first idol activity shown after DTB ended? No, they were still going strong.
-Oh cool, that flight jacket Yoon Eden is wearing looks tempting? I think that’ll become a trendy item?
-Yeah, the survival show is over so it’s good to try new things without being too obsessed with competition
-Where can I buy the dancheong pattern hoodie the brown-haired guy is wearing? I like it because it’s unique and hip
For DTB fans who had experienced beret blue jackets and pink-haired popular bunny hats, and even chest exposure and sleeveless turtleneck crop tops, this much was nothing.
Unintentionally, Yoon Eden had raised the fans who followed from DTB too strongly.
And while the hanbok from 【Yeonhaga 】 was difficult to wear as casual clothes, the modern reinterpreted hanbok from 【Cheongryuga 】 was quite possible.
Moreover, the Rev members wearing them with perfect fit made them look quite hip.
The weak ones who only cried for Yoon Eden’s solo album had long been filtered out when they faced ‘our hyung’s’ languid smile with loosened clothes in the authentic historical drama style 【Yeonhaga 】 teaser.
Riding the momentum of 【Cheongryuga 】’s reaction, concept photos were released.

In Yeonhaga concept photos Eden is center but in Cheongryuga concept photos Hajun is center
In the teaser too, only those two people’s order and roles were switched, is this a hint?
To say their roles switched, their clothes are still the same – crown prince gonryongpo and navy durumagi

Hajun also looks absolutely perfect in both the durumagi and the durumagi coat formal outfits, but Yehyeon is seriously insaneㅠㅠㅠㅠ The cheollik and the black turtleneck with short outer jacket are pure ascetic sexiness
Tying the string tight around the waist to show off the waistline, that’s really someone who knows what they’re doingㅠㅠㅠ

But is it just me or does only Eden look different while the other members have similar vibes in Yeonhaga and Cheongryuga?
In Yeonhaga he looks like a sexy tyrant with a story, but in Cheongryuga he looks like a young master who’d extort money if you made eye contact…

Isn’t this that thing? They didn’t know what we’d like so they prepared both?
My thoughtful babies who even prepared a pure historical drama version in case the fusion doesn’t suit my taste…(Don’t mention ㅇ3

Even looking at the comeback timing, Eden was right in the middle of preparing for the DTB semifinals and finals, so he must have really struggled juggling that with preparing for Rev activities ㅠ
Even so, I’m really proud of you for confidently winning and creating a legendary stage, Eden
One day until the music video release.
This activity, which had the highest expectations of all our activities so far, was smooth sailing from the start.

The cell phone placed face down in front of where I was sitting kept vibrating noisily.
Since I don’t like putting my phone on silent, I tried to endure it as much as possible, but I couldn’t stand it anymore and switched my phone to silent mode.
Because of the constant stream of text messages and calls, I couldn’t even do my weekly Search Quest right now.
I saw the good reaction to 【Cheongryuga (Clear Stream Song)】’s teaser without filter while doing yesterday’s Search Quest, but what if public opinion somehow reversed in just one day?
“Did your number get leaked on the internet? Tell Manager Hyung to change your phone number. Why won’t that vibrating stop?”
Seo Yehyeon, who saw the state of my frantically buzzing phone from the side, gave advice while opening a face pack.
“No. This is all coming from one person.”
“Then a sasaeng got your number and is calling alone without spreading it? Wow, that’s persistent…”
Seo Yehyeon, who had completely misunderstood, sighed while putting the face pack on his face.
The guy who was currently overworking my phone was indeed my enthusiastic fan, but he wasn’t quite a sasaeng.
“It’s not a sasaeng.”
“Then did you… take out a private loan?”
Seo Yehyeon’s voice suddenly became cautious. I have money rotting away, so why would I use private loans? I yawned leisurely and replied.
“Even hyung thinks that’s nonsensical bullshit, right?”
And the guy who’s been calling my cell phone like crazy right now wasn’t demanding money from me.
Rather, he was pressuring me to let him give me money.
[Choi Hyeongjin- Hey, hurry up and give me your account number] 10:26 AM
If you just changed ‘account’ to ‘money’, it would be exactly like a loan shark’s threatening text message.
Whether it was OBEY or six-bay, anyway, even when I said the payment for resolving the plagiarism case involving that bastard who steals middle schooler productions was settled with your apology so there’s no debt between us, and therefore it’s separate from the car you gave me, Choi Hyeongjin stubbornly insisted otherwise.
It was the kind of stubbornness typical of someone who had been firmly rooted in the Underground until now.
[If you really hate receiving it for free that much, just buy one of Reve’s upcoming albums] 10:27 AM
When I sent a message thinking I’d use Choi Hyeongjin to boost our album sales numbers by one, an enthusiastic reply came back immediately.
[Choi Hyeongjin- How much worth should I buy?] 10:27 AM
[Choi Hyeongjin- 2000?] 10:27 AM
Is this bastard serious?
When did I tell you to buy as much as a car costs, man. If you’re going to pour 20 million won into our album, you might as well buy me some state-of-the-art composition equipment instead.
If Choi Hyeongjin repaid favors this way, it seemed like the day I’d see Choi Hyeongjin’s face at a fan meeting wouldn’t be far off.
[Oh, Hyeongjin, you want to get my autograph at a fan meeting?] 10:30 AM
[If you come, I’ll specially add a wink and make a hand heart for you] 10:31 AM
[Choi Hyeongjin- Ah, fuck] 10:31 AM
[Choi Hyeongjin- Just imagining it gives me fucking chills] 10:32 AM
So you can feel disgust even through text.
Actually, Choi Hyeongjin’s reaction like this made me happier. If this guy accepted even my hand heart and wink… that would really be crossing a river of no return.
[Just accept it and go around spreading it everywhere as my good deed story, Hyeongjin] 10:35 AM
[That’s all I need] 10:36 AM
[Choi Hyeongjin- You bastard, you gave me the car targeting that, didn’t you] 10:36 AM
Oh, that’s sharp.
[I gave it to you because I was grateful, you bastard] 10:37 AM
[Why are you distorting my good intentions?] 10:37 AM
After I shamelessly sent my reply, Choi Hyeongjin waited a moment before sending me the pre-order link for our current activity single album.
[Choi Hyeongjin- Hey, is this your new album that just came out?] 10:42 AM
[Yeah]
“Okay, added one more to the album pre-order sales.”
One compact car and one album. Anyone could see I was making a losing deal.
Kim Dobin, ‘that guy in the dancheong pattern hoodie’, who had been sneaking peeks at our message conversation, suddenly butted in.
“Huh, hyung. Just one album? While we’re at it, why don’t you invest about half the value of the car you gave hyung into our album’s first-week sales?”
“Do you want to see him at the fan meeting?”
Kim Dobin shook his head with an enlightened expression. I checked the time on my cell phone, which had finally quieted down.
16 hours until the song and music video release. 16 hours until our song, and I, would be placed on the cutting board of evaluation.
My heart was pounding with anticipation rather than tension and fear. That pleasant heartbeat made me fully realize that I had completely escaped my slump.

-What’s this? What’s going on? Why are all our kids’ names listed in songwriting and composing???
-Wow, this feels weird. It was always just Eden’s name, but seeing all five names there
-What’s with Doby’s batting average? Every song he works on has this masterpiece energy bursting out. Wasn’t Doby actually a composition genius like Eden all along?
-Did all five of them really work on this? Are they taking questions on Rev’s comeback live stream right now?
└Still ongoing! They just finished greetings and are preparing to watch the music video now!
As soon as the two music videos were released and the song information appeared, the fan community stirred once again. To be precise, it was because of the five names listed under lyric writing and composition.
[Yoon Eden: Ah, they’re saying the music videos just got released. Then let’s start with watching them together, and then we’ll proceed with behind-the-scenes stories from preparing for this comeback and some talk.]
[Yuje: Oh right! I almost forgot. Wait a moment, hyung. Let me deliver this to the fans first, then we’ll do the music video reaction.]
During the ongoing comeback commemoration live broadcast, the members were preparing to watch and react to the music videos.
[Yuje: Daydream, the music videos have an order. Yeonhaga’s music video comes first, then Cheongryuga’s music video comes next. Well, the viewing order doesn’t really matter much, but if you’re someone who likes interpreting music videos and such, you can watch them in that order.]
[Yoon Eden: We also recommend listening to the songs in the order of Yeonhaga and Cheongryuga. Though the title track is Cheongryuga.]
[Kim Dobin: Now then, let’s watch both music videos together!]
The music video for 【Yeonhaga (Mist and Cloud Song)】, which was completely in historical drama style and a ballad, played first.
