A Regression Guide for Idols Who Lost Their Initial Intentions Episode 63

 

 

December 25th. Christmas Day.

Christmas Special Episode.

Since Rev was a rookie group and would only perform once in the first part anyway, Rev’s dedicated fans cleanly gave up on S Company’s Music Awards and fired up their grill plates to rush to watch the reality show live broadcast.

 

[-Youngest Member, let’s try just the first verse of the hook one more time.]

[Recording work starting smoothly!]

 

-Didn’t they say Eden was really strict during recording? His voice sounds so gentle though?

└No way, Jaehee was startled ㅋㅋ Maybe she’s holding back because she’s in front of the camera ㅋㅋㅋ

-Did you see the youngest’s face? Hahahaha I thought they saw a ghost or something hahaha

-What’s with Dobin giving a thumbs up lol what does that even mean lol

└Eden Hyung is less strict today, yay <- Probably something like that

└Didn’t he make a bet with Yuje? Leader will be strict even in front of cameras vs he’ll be gentle

 

[Hajun also smoothly completes his part!]

 

-Eden, please stop discriminating between Yuje and Hajun

-When it was Yuje’s turn he just nodded expressionlessly, but for Hajun he’s all smiles

-He said Hajun’s tone is his preference

-Eden, I’m gonna cry from jealousy… I thought they’d favor the main vocal but it’s tone > skill huh ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

 

[-Wait, let’s go again. “Pushing through the softly piled snow”- that part was fine, right? But the pitch wavers after that.]

[Yehyeon takes a deep breath at the criticism and goes back into recording]

 

-Yoon Eden… Despite his bad reputation, he’s surprisingly… gentle…?

└Right, they said he was super strict and scary

-The guys probably just exaggerated to create talking points

 

[-Keep the beat. Again.]

[-Sigh, again.]

[-Again.]

[Eden’s expression gradually hardening]

[The atmosphere in the studio grows heavier and heavier…]

 

-Shit, sorry for saying it was exaggerated guys

-Wow the atmosphere is really walking on thin ice

-I think I understand why Yehyeon kept reading the room whenever he made mistakes, Eden is scary as hell

-Now I understand why they said it was scary during recording. You’re telling me they held back THIS much just because there were cameras? ㄷㄷ

-Isn’t Eden targeting Yehyeon too much?ㅠ No matter how I look at it, it seems like there are real feelings involvedㅠ

└Then why are you suddenly grabbing Eden’s hair? Yuje and Hajun did well so they got the OK after a few tries, and Seo Yehyeon keeps repeating because he’s not doing well until he gets results

└Don’t you know how sensitive and serious Eden is about music? Why are you making him out to be someone who bullies innocent people?

└If Yehyeon had done well from the start, Eden wouldn’t have had to act like that, right?

-I don’t care about all that, I just feel bad for the other members who got caught in the crossfire… Look at Yuje reading the room…

-He said “again” exactly ten times, enough to give you neurosis over the word “again”

 

[-Yehyeon Hyung, come out for a moment.]

[Recording finally stopped!]

[Called by the leader, he comes out of the recording studio with a troubled expression]

 

-Shiiiiit that’s really scary

-Wow I’m getting chills

-Even being called by a homeroom teacher wouldn’t be this nerve-wracking

-Yehyun got completely discouraged ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-Calling him out where all the members can see to scold him is a bit much;;;;

 

[Eden calmly points out Yehyeon’s problems]

[Yehyeon seems to be gradually getting the hang of it]

 

-Where did the guy who said giving wedgies wasn’t cool go? lol

-What, Yoon Eden is really gentle

└?: Again

 

[Got the hang of it! Skills improving rapidly!]

[-Again. Pay attention to the beat until the end. It drags at the end.]

[But still a failing grade for now ☹]

 

-They really are picky hahaha

-I thought he’d let it pass warmly here

-At least Yehyeon finished within the day, I thought it would take all day

 

[Suddenly R&B here?]

[Dobin got in trouble as expected after fooling around ㅠㅠ]

 

-Oh dear Dobin…

-He’s clueless but he’s a good guy lol

-I fall for Eden every time he shows how serious he is about music

 

[Finally, the leader’s self-producing]

[-Again.]

 

-Yuje, did Eden just copy that? hahahaha

-Hey ㄱㅇㅇ, it’s like a cat trying to imitate a tiger

-Are you messing around? Are you messing around? Are you messing around? Are you messing around?

└His voice is insane bbb The hint of laughter in it drives people crazy for real

-Eden is surprisingly good at accommodating the younger ones lol

 

[After finishing all the recording work]

[Eden Interview]

[Q. Were there any difficult or challenging aspects while recording?]

[A. Well, the final product can’t always come out exactly as I envisioned it, so that’s a bit frustrating. My ideals, or rather… there are cases where the members can’t keep up with my expectations.]

[Q. If you have anything you’d like to say to the members using this interview opportunity?]

[A. First, Hajun and Jaehee, thank you for always delivering results beyond expectations. Dobin, if you want to joke around, do it when you’re confident you can pass in one OK sign. Hyung is tired. Lastly, Yehyeon Hyung, it must have been hard because my expectations were high, but thank you for keeping up. And everyone, please continue to work well together.]

 

-Watching today’s broadcast, Eden’s perfectionism definitely showed, constantly trying to match his expectations without any compromise

└If this continues, he’ll get burned out and exhausted later, which is a bit worrying

└Still, Eden has strong mentals so he probably won’t burn out easily. We have to trust him.

-It’s definitely hard to produce team results when the group leader has high standards

-Seeing him thank each and every member shows he’s a real leader ㅠㅠㅠ

 

[Yehyeon Interview]

[Q. Wasn’t the recording work difficult?]

[A. It’s hard. But I think it’s more important to complete a result that I’m not ashamed to show rather than putting out a messy result. So it’s okay even if it’s difficult. I know Eden suffers a lot because of me, so I always feel sorry.]

[Q. Is there anything you’d like to say to Eden through this interview?]

[A. Everything’s good, but when you’re looking through the glass wall, please relax your eyes a little. And I’m sorry for making you suffer every time we record.]

 

-Our oppa is totally mature, so mature

-It’s okay, Eden says he’s grateful that you follow along well

-I’m curious about Eden’s eyes when looking through the glass wall

└First of all, it would be scary,,, even if he relaxes his eyes, it would still be scary,,,

 

[Hajun Interview]

[Q. What’s the secret to working in the shortest time?]

[A. Um, because I have the tone that Eden likes…? Just kidding. Since I’ve been doing guide vocals for Eden’s self-composed songs from before, I can read and bring out the feeling Eden wants to some extent. I think that played the biggest part.]

[Q. Who usually finishes recording the fastest?]

[A. It’s always different. Sometimes it’s Jaehee, sometimes I finish shorter. Jaehee is really amazing. I have time together, experience, so I catch the feeling based on that, but Jaehee just reads it right away.]

 

-Hajun also knows that his voice tone is Eden’s type haha

-I seriously love the relationship between the same-age friends so muchㅠㅠㅠ

-Yuje must really be a genius

-Dobin and Yehyun’s names that absolutely never come up lol

 

[Dobin Interview]

[Q. Why did you use R&B vocal technique and provoke Eden’s anger?]

[A. That’s right… Why did I do that… I must have been possessed by a recording studio ghost… There’s no other explanation.]

[Q. Eden said to only joke around when you’re confident you can get an okay sign in one take. Are you confident?]

[A. Oh, of course not. From now on, I’ll never joke around and approach it seriously.]

 

-Ghost: That’s unfair

-Dobin, why are you being like that to the ghost hahahaha

 

[Yuje Interview]

[Q. Why did you make a startled expression in the recording studio?]

[A. Ah, can I say this? Face, won’t you mosaic my face? Sigh, well… It was the first time I heard Eden hyung speak so gently in the recording studio. As you know, Eden hyung is strict when working. Hajun hyung probably hasn’t heard such soft words in the recording studio either, I think.]

[Q. When working on Eden’s part, you said you were Eden’s fan. Which member do you actually think is the coolest in Rev?]

[A. Eden hyung. I was sincere. Honestly, rapping is cool. The style of clothes he wears is also cool.]

 

-Eden, the youngest is spilling all the tea about your acting right now lol

-Main vocal aiming for the main rapper position

-Eden really likes dairy products haha

 

[Rev returning to the dormitory]

[A mission given to them!]

 

-Wow, what’s with the dormitory seriously, I knew it was bad when they filmed the kids waking up in the morning, but seeing the living room makes it more serious

-I remember when you showed your place on a live stream before and there was mold on the walls… ㅋㅋㅋㅋ unforgettable…

-I remember being shocked seeing three kids sleeping on one mattress. What kind of dorm doesn’t even have a proper bed, for fuck’s sake?

-What is Kim No-dap doing not moving the kids? Is it enough to just move their office?

└ㄱㄴㄲ This is so fucking infuriating, seriously the company only has one artist, Rev, and they’re treating that one artist like shit ㅆㅂ

-Crazy accommodation, they said it’s a semi-basement ㅇ3 are they insane

└ Even calling it a 3 is too generous, let’s just call it shit again

 

[-Please decide on Christmas gifts. You need to decide on a gift you want to give to the member you drew and prepare it before music video filming. The support fund is 50,000 won, and personal spending is possible if the budget is exceeded.]

[-Wow, you’re supporting us with 50,000 won each?]

[Members carefully drawing slips]

 

-Why does Dobin look so moved/touched? ㅋㅋㅋ

-The difference in their expressions when they heard about the 50,000 won subsidy was so clearㅋㅋ Adults calculating how much more they’ll have to spend out of their own pocket / Minors who think 50,000 won seems like a lot

 

[A serious discussion suddenly taking place]

[Gifts are about sincerity VS Money is the best]

 

-These guys tainted by worldliness

-But somehow Yehyeon’s argument is logical, it’s persuasive

-I relate more to Yuje’s side, isn’t the charm of gifts wondering what this person will give me?

-Three romantics and two realists

-What are their MBTIs?

 

[The slips are finally revealed!]

[Yehyeon → Dobin]

[Eden → Yehyeon]

[Hajun → Yuje]

[Dobin → Hajun]

[Yuje → Eden]

 

-Isn’t this rigged? lololol How is it that not a single person picked themselves? lol

-None of them even picked each other lol

-Will Yehyeon and Eden give money as gifts as they so desired?

-Yehyeon seems like he’ll give money, but Eden seems like he’ll just give a regular gift?

 

[The long-awaited Christmas commemorative song music video filming location!]

[Its behind-the-scenes first reveal!]

[What’s the secret of this Christmas party table full of delicious-looking food?]

 

-The subtitles are so shameless for real lol hahaha

-No, there’s one trap hidden

-The strawberry cake from hell doesn’t look delicious at all

-I’m most curious about how they cooked the whole roasted turkey, was Dobin unexpectedly a cooking master?

 

[-Ah, I just need to spread whipped cream, stack strawberries, and layer sheets?]

[-Just pretend to operate the oven?]

[-Wow, that’s easy.]

 

-Only two guys actually cooked

-No, ruining a completely made cake like that is also a talent

-What happened to the strawberry cake really
