A Regression Guide for Idols Who Lost Their Initial Intentions Episode 374

* * *

We all gathered on the sofa in the studio rented by our agency, lightly fixing our hair and adjusting our clothes.

Since we had built up quite a bit of experience by now, our members didn’t even get nervous for most live broadcasts, but today we had a somewhat set script, so a little nervousness was necessary.

The script wasn’t particularly long and was rather on the short side, but since it was still an important matter, we had to stay sharp.

Our given mission was to naturally draw out ‘that line’ without being caught using a script.

“I don’t know how it’ll turn out, but at least it feels satisfying.”

Gyeon Hajun smiled with a satisfied expression. When you think about it, Jung Iseo had basically abused his power over Gyeon Hajun, so it was completely understandable that Hajun was grinding his teeth like this.

“Exactly. I hope this properly gives that bastard a good hit.”

“A guy like that will get plenty stressed just from his plans getting messed up, right? Unless Jung Iseo watches all our live broadcasts one by one, he won’t be able to know in advance and prepare for it.”

When I nodded in agreement with Gyeon Hajun’s words, Seo Yehyeon added with a grin. When you think about it, even though Yehyeon hadn’t been wronged by Jung Iseo, he still saw him as a thorn in his side.

The script was written by Seo Yehyeon and Ryu Jaehee putting their heads together, even considering how to draw out fan chat responses, so it was definitely trustworthy.

Since we were doing a live broadcast with the theme of a preview of my solo song, the studio had audio equipment and microphones prepared. I had quite a struggle transcribing the freestyle lyrics by watching the YouTube video.

I thought I’d be able to remember everything, but there were some detailed parts that differed from my memory. I almost got exposed for doing it freestyle.

“Going in on three. One, two, three!”

Clap! The sound of clapping hands accompanied the camera light turning on, signaling the start of recording.

“Dream of me! Hello, this is Rev!”

After finishing our group greeting with a bow, we waved at the camera with smiling faces.

“Hello, Daydream.”

“It’s been a while since all five of us came to see you together on OA Live like this.”

“That’s right. Yesterday I did a live broadcast with Eden hyung, and now I’m here again with the youngest member and the other hyungs.”

Well, that’s because I have to complete my weekly mission. During vacation, I did make an agreement with the system to turn the live broadcast into a vlog though.

I picked up the microphone and started laying the groundwork according to the script. The first step was the DTB concert.

“We’ve prepared this session to personally perform a short preview of the solo song for our Daydream who couldn’t come to the DTB concert and missed hearing the solo song preview.”

[Hyung I love you!!!!!]

[So this is how you’re healing the pain of completely failing to get DTB concert tickets…]

[I came to hear Yoon Eden’s solo song live out of curiosity and accidentally became a Daydream]

[Is the next activity going to be solo activities instead of a Rev group comeback?]

[Praise God Eden! Praise God Eden! Praise God Eden! Praise God Eden! Praise God Eden! Praise God Eden!]

[Damn, these DTB fans are now trying to spam even the live broadcasts]

“In addition to that, we have Eden hyung’s DTB concert behind-the-scenes stories and Rev’s Hawaii vacation behind-the-scenes. If you’re curious, subscribe to the channel!”

[Honestly, didn’t all five of you gather not so much for Eden’s solo song preview but to tell the story about the 12-hour flight delay and missing the connecting flight? lol]

[To be honest, I’m more curious about the vacation behind-the-scenes than the solo song lol]

“Youngest, this isn’t Popular Music. There’s no channel to switch to.”

“The MC comments just stick in my mouth from doing MC work.”

I gently folded down Ryu Jaehee’s finger as he displayed his music show MC spirit even during the live broadcast.

While the actual purpose of turning on the live broadcast wasn’t that, the nominal purpose was a preview live performance of my solo song, so I played the beat and briefly showcased eight bars of verse like at the DTB concert.

[Oh real hiphop]

[Hyung when are you releasing a full solo album]

[So freaking cool, I can’t believe I missed seeing this at the concert ㅠㅠㅠㅠ]

[It’s cool but the song is a bit heavy…]

“As for when it’s scheduled to be released, Rev will make a comeback, one of our vocal line will release a solo song, and then it’ll come out after that.”

“That’s quite far away.”

“It could be soon too.”

After joking around with Kim Dobin, I sent a subtle signal to Seo Yehyeon. It was time to start building up in earnest.

“We also went because Eden gave us invitation tickets. There we greeted people who came with Eden’s invitation tickets like us, and there was also a fellow idol junior there so we took photos together.”

“Right, did that person post it on Inbyeol?”

[Fellow idol junior? Who is it?]

[Was it Nedion’s Shin Heeun?]

[I looked it up and it’s really their first meeting;; Did they appear on DTB]

[Isn’t this heavily edited? lolololol]

[Did you become close during DTB preliminaries?]

[Ah the one who made a lyrics mistake and got eliminated in 3 seconds]

“It’s a bit lacking to say we became close during DTB First Preliminary Round… We were just acquaintances who talked while waiting back then. But we happened to meet again at Sports University this time, so yes.”

Good, I successfully made it naturally transition to Sports University.

“There were quite a few people who enjoyed watching DTB 4 this time.”

“That number wasn’t just ‘quite a few’, hyung.”

[Looks like you had a fan meeting with rocks at Aceh University ㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[Other idol fans are trembling right now worried their group’s rappers might go on DTB next year]

[Wouldn’t it be great if he became like Crying Child who made it big? Now people probably can’t dismiss him as just an idol rapper anymore lol]

[I don’t know, maybe it’s because we’re Eden’s group, but if Yehyeon said he was going on DTB, even I would have begged him with water offerings not to go]

[Please tell us some Sports University stories!]

“Yes, please wait until New Year’s Day for our Sports University activities. Then you’ll be able to see it vividly through the actual broadcast, not our stories. It wouldn’t be fun if you knew in advance.”

“By the way, Yehyeon hyung’s performance was amazing.”

“What about me?”

“Eden hyung was amazing too.”

I watched the chat rising at tremendous speed with eagle eyes and finally found a chat asking about Sports University friendships.

Kim Dobin pretended not to notice and answered that chat.

“Friendships? We make a lot of friendships.”

“When you meet people you encountered at broadcasting stations during promotion periods again at Sports University, there’s something nice about feeling glad to see them.”

Just chatting enough to not look like they were enjoying too much camaraderie, Gyeon Hajun let out a short sigh and opened his mouth.

“I was fine with briefly greeting or having conversations, but when we were grouped together, I wished it was just our members. Honestly, I felt a bit uncomfortable…”

“Jun, you had every reason to feel uncomfortable.”

[????]

[Who else was there at the Sports University besides the members?]

[He felt uncomfortable?]

[JIS???]

[Wow, wasn’t there already a lot of talk about that?]

[Maybe Hajun just felt uncomfortable because he has an introverted personality]

[I think it’s dangerous to blindly assume this is targeting someone, please think about Rev too]

[But I heard from a Twitter friend who went to watch the Sports University that he was too obviously clinging around, even abandoning his own group]

[Hajun, develop some social skills tsk tsk]

[What’s going on, am I the only one who can’t follow?]

[Why would he have reason to feel uncomfortable???? Did something bad happen with JIS?]

[What kind of talk was there?]

[Hajun’s social skills are probably way better than yours who’s desperately posting these chats!]

The chat was already moving too fast to read, but now it was practically at explosion level.

“Since it’s not exactly a good memory.”

Gyeon Hajun held a bitter smile for a moment, then returned to his usual expression as if nothing had happened.

If we spoke too ambiguously, there could be reactions claiming it was fabricated, so knowing that all sorts of speculation and negative opinions about being reckless might emerge until Jung Iseo actually took action, we chose to leave some room for interpretation.

[This makes it obvious]

[Anyone can tell this is about the NewBorn days]

[Kids, this is too reckless]

[This could turn into gossip if we’re not careful]

[It’s not even Doby, but the most serious Hajun – how bad must it have been for him to say this lololol]

[What happened to Hajun at NewBorn?]

[Why are you suddenly dragging Doby into this lol]

[Both Eden and Hajun are from NewBorn]

[What’s wrong, Hajun? Are you so bitter about being pushed out by Iseo in the NewBorn debut group that you’re randomly attacking our Iseo? lol]

[★Don’t feed the troll★Don’t feed the troll★Don’t feed the troll★Don’t feed the troll★Don’t feed the troll★]

[They were making Pome or whatever so moe, wanting to make friends, but now that our kid says he was uncomfortable, you come to another group’s live broadcast to throw a tantrum lololol]

[He had every reason to feel uncomfortable, that side’s fandom knew about it all along]

[Why are you talking about stories only you know, making others feel left out]

[He didn’t even directly say he was uncomfortable because he’s the one who got Hajun kicked out of NewBorn, so what gossip lololol]

[Honestly, GWS would be one thing, but JIS was kind of out of nowhere]

[To say he was pushed out of the debut group… even without my bias filter, objectively speaking, isn’t Jun the clear winner in looks and skills? lol]

“Now that we’ve talked enough about the Idol Star Athletics Championships, shall we gradually move on to some vacation stories?”

Okay, I had successfully cleared all the bait that was in the script.

Even if Jung Iseo tried to create media play later with witness accounts and photos of him sticking close to us at the Idol Star Athletics Championships, today’s live broadcast would help reveal the truth.

If you’re going to try to screw someone over, you should be prepared to get screwed over yourself. Got it, Parachute?

ByoU @ujaemom

I feel like a lot happened during today’s live broadcast… The behind-the-scenes from the Idol Star Athletics Championships was quite shocking

That ‘Pome’ was sticking so close to Eden’s side that people were saying Hajun’s bad expression was because he was jealous of his best friend (lol) being stolen, but jealousy my ass, it was just because he had no good memories with ‘Pome’ lololol

Eleven @11onlyonereve

Didn’t 2E say he ran out together after Hajun left NewBorn? If Hajun simply couldn’t make the debut group because of his skills, would 2E, who was in the NewBorn debut group, have any reason to kick that away and follow Hajun out, no matter how loyal he is?

Now I understand that fandom’s reaction when they had a fit telling people not to pair Eden and GWS during some OnTop or whatever leader group project lol So that’s why they desperately bashed Eden while chanting Narak like a mantra lololol

Ugh I fucking hate this

Thanks to this, rumor generation and hate forums have opened up all sorts of things. If you’re going to say stuff like that, don’t do it on a group live broadcast, say it face-to-face in front of our kid. Oh, don’t you have the courage for that?

Fuck crazy bastards, this pisses me off so much. What does our Lee Seo become if you say shit like that, fuck

If sticking close was uncomfortable and annoying, then say it at the time. Can’t say it in front of our Lee Seo but pathetically bitching behind his back among themselves

The online fight that had ignited continued sluggishly for several days, and just before those who had joined the battle lost interest and it died down like usual, something happened that was nothing short of a bolt from the blue for the KICKS fandom.
