407
[Hey guys, January 1st is coming]
December 31st.
A day when everyone’s hearts raced in anticipation of the new year that was about to arrive.
[I shouldn’t live like garbage next year!
But the trash bin is just too comfortable, you know?]
[Guys, they say the song you hear for the first time on January 1st determines how you will live in the new year.
Family, the first song you hear on January 1st determines how you’ll live in the new year.
└Parachute..? What were the lyrics?
└└…Why exactly?
└└Because I want to be a slave to the company with a smile…
└└Fighting…]
I want to become a slave to the entertainment company…
[Quickly put out the WH Con cue sheet tomorrow]
Hurry up and release the WH Con cue sheet tomorrow.
As the day ended—exhilarating for some, exhausting for others—people gathered in front of their televisions with delicious food. As always, the QBS Music Festival concluded with The Dun and High Five standing side by side at the center of the frame, a testament to their recent prominence.
After a day that was exciting for some and difficult for others, we gathered in front of the television with delicious food.
The day ended—exciting for some, difficult for others—and everyone gathered in front of the television with delicious food.
【3, 2, 1… ! happy new year!】
When the camera, which was showing the entire cast, slowly moved away from the side, shiny silver confetti landed on Jeong Da-jun’s nose, and Seo Ho-yoon was caught holding him away.
[My eldest brother’s parenting makes my day difficult (I’m dying of joy)]
“Eldest Brother’s childcare days wear me out (I love it to death)”
And as soon as the date passed to January 1st, the attention of people supporting WH Entertainment’s celebrities began to focus on the WH New Year’s Concert, which was scheduled to start at 1 p.m.
[Cue sheet.. Why doesn’t the cue sheet appear? Someone bring me a cue sheet. If you post it now, you’ll be a hero in the new year…
└I started passively asking…]
[Do I have to wait for a few hours to see when my babies will come out.. haha Those involved may not know this, but Bapsooni has his own life~]
Even as we race towards the scheduled time, the schedule has still not been made public. Then, they even more earnestly hoped that their idol would reveal special information.
[Seonghyeon Kim. Since I mentioned spoilers before. Could you please tell me the order of the concert?]
[If you shout this much, Hoyun, who is quick-witted, will let you know quietly, right?
└I’m scared because I think he’ll treat me like a real person.
└I’m actually scared he might really do it
└└For real
“*cough cough* Two, thirty-seven! *cough cough*, minutes!”
└└Ho-yoon, we trust you
[Our Yeonhu.. My dutiful child.. Grandmother,, Let me know when you will appear]
[How can Yeonhu do that? Rather, he is the kind of person who will freak out and stop Sehyun if she makes a mistake.
└This is correct hahahahahaha
This is it lol
Meanwhile, Bloy was the only fandom free from all these restrictions.
Meanwhile, Bloy was the only fandom free from all this chaos.
[I can leisurely go home around 4 o’clock]
You can just head in around four o’clock at your leisure.
It was a moment when Bloys were leisurely hanging out on social media, thinking that they could just have another bowl of rice cake soup.
[Correct]
[Whoa what]
Woosung Joo appeared 30 minutes after the start of the WH Entertainment concert.
Just thirty minutes into the WH Entertainment concert, Joo Woo-sung appeared.
【I don’t know what the word “moderately” means
【I don’t know the meaning of moderation
Flash of Wit—this sensation you find hard to understand
Bloys, who had never thought of a performance other than Black Call, opened their mouths and brought their faces closer to the screen.
【If you still follow me
【Even so, if you follow me to the end
[Stage frenzy]
[Stage Phenomenon]
Joo Woo-sung flew around the stage as if it were his own space. Joo Woo-seong, who was smiling brilliantly, stepped to the side and Kim Seong-hyun took the center position.
[omg….]
【I don’t know complicated words
【Complicated words, I don’t know them
And everyone who witnesses this is surprised.
And everyone who witnessed this was taken aback.
[UNTRANSLATED LINE 101]
【Get up this way
[You have great strength. Your dancing style is very different from usual.]
[He’s got strength, his dance style is quite different from usual]
[The wolf inside me awakens
[UNTRANSLATED LINE 111]
Is that Kim Sung-hyun?? He does look cool with that wolf-like appearance, though…
While the Nouls were feeling extremely proud, a yellow warning light came on for the Blois. It was because the person he thought was just a ‘junior 1’ who was following Joo Woo-sung around was careful and quickly emerged as the main dancer to watch.
While the Noeul fans swelled with pride, a yellow warning light flickered on for the Bloy fans. The person they had dismissed as merely ‘Junior 1′ following Woo-sung had suddenly emerged as a main dancer worth watching carefully.
【I told you, I want to be simple in front of you.
【I told you, I want to keep things simple in front of you
If I’m drawn to you, I’ll just say it feels good
Seo Ho-yoon was praised for not creating a sense of incongruity while being sandwiched between Joo Woo-sung and Kim Sung-hyun.
Seo Ho-yoon received praise simply for not creating discord while sandwiched between Joo Woo-sung and Kim Sung-hyun.
[Hoyoon…..
[Ho-yoon…
…your dancing…
…you dance…
No.
└Ah, I love you, hahahaha]
Damn, that’s too much lolololololololololololololololol Our Ho-yoon works hard!!
“Ah, I love you, haha lol”
Anyway, when the special collaboration stage ‘Wit’ ended safely and Noeul and Bloy were smiling like well-fed cats, Hyiri was depressed.
However, being included among K-POP’s renowned dancers meant that subtle differences in detail became glaringly apparent in relative comparison.
In any case, as the special collaboration stage “Wit” came to a close and Noeul and Bloy smiled like satisfied cats, Hairy had grown melancholic.
I’m a bit… disappointed… because it feels like High Five is being left behind…
[our Yeon-hu could dance perfectly with Joo Woo-sung too…]
Chae Jeong-woo, who is known to be secretly reluctant to socialize, mentioned it several times on radio or broadcast, and the only time he did so was after the lecture. So this unit was special to both Black Call fans and High Five fans.
The discontent was fleeting.
Chae Jung-woo, known for subtly avoiding socializing, was the only person he had mentioned repeatedly on radio and broadcasts. Because of this, the unit felt special to both Black Call’s fans and High Five’s fans.
Especially for Hairy—the disappointment that had been weighing heavily just moments before melted away entirely.
[WH is also a famous family]
[Korea’s best taste]
【I am staying in a twisted afterimage
And,
【I linger within the twisted afterimage
the small doubt hidden in your heart】
The pride WH Entertainment had accumulated over decades reached its zenith on Black Call’s stage.
Not only the fans, but even those who dismissed Black Call as past their prime, or those who harbored doubts about the rigid entertainment system, found themselves holding their breath and unable to look away from the stage.
【A crack forms in a small crevice
Everyone was shocked at that ridiculous sight.
[and……]
The 4 minutes and 42 seconds of ‘King’ was more than enough to replace the fans’ anger resulting from the one-and-a-half year hiatus with flame-like joy.
[Wow…]
The four minutes and forty-two seconds of “King” was more than enough to transform the fans’ anguish from a year and a half of absence into a brilliant, blazing euphoria.
After two more songs, the concert concluded with all artists performing WH Entertainment’s anthem “Us” together.
[…Are we really allowed to watch this for free?]
I was planning on writing a lot of articles, but now I can’t think of anything…
[Title: After Black Call’s stage
I was going to write nothing but gushing posts, but now my mind is completely blank…
[Title: Eokkkadeul WH Byeongkdo
I will never be able to do it based on my skills.
└Celebrities who are said to be unable to do it in the first place are also bullshit. If you go to another agency, they just chew you up.
They can never criticize their skill
└Look at how all of Silt is plastered with stories about the concert right now hahaha]
└└True
Look at how the whole place is plastered with concert talk right now lol
Posts about the concert flooded SNS and online communities. Most reactions questioned whether it was really okay to watch such rare and precious footage for free.
But there was no need to worry.
[WH had a reason for releasing the video for free
[You’re crazy]
Recently, the favorability of WH Entertainment artists has soared among middle-aged stock investors.
[Insane]
Of course, among them, there were rare people who did not sell, believing that the value would one day rise thanks to the acquisition by Daepasung, which includes national actor Min Ji-heon and rising star The Dawn. But no one really had high expectations.
Recently, among middle-aged stock investors, the favorability rating of WH Entertainment’s artists had skyrocketed dramatically.
Of course, there were a few among them who believed the value would eventually rise with Dae Pa-sung’s acquisition—home to national actor Min Ji-heon and rising star The Dun—and refused to sell. But realistically, no one held much hope.
Then that stock skyrocketed as the junior group’s consecutive hits sparked anticipation for fourth-quarter earnings reports.
[I don’t care about Noeul and Highly’s fandom fight and cheer for each other to do well. <Is this true Sundeok?]
The heart at the end is mandatory]
[Noeul and High-Li fandoms don't care about petty fights and just cheer for each other to do well <Is this true fandom?]
[I checked the forum out of curiosity just now and they're not even calling them sons anymore
They call them "gods"
[UNTRANSLATED LINE 212]
└I should've bought some shares a few weeks ago
Hahaha… we have five boxes of albums just at our home alone.
Sorry, Earth..]
WH Entertainment's stock price, merchandise sales, earnings reports.
When stock-related information was excitedly floating around among fans, The Dawn's live alarm came to mind.
[Damn~~~~!! I was going to say that it was too much because it only came last year, but the Dungeons wrote it first]
Just as stock-related information was circulating excitedly among fans, The Dun's live notification popped up.
[Damn~~~~!! I was going to make a joke about how they only came last year, but the Dun fans beat me to it]
As soon as they logged in, the members who had been eating the blue rice cake soup made by Jeong Da-jun looked at the chat window and looked puzzled when they saw words that were regularly repeated.
“My beloved sons…?”
The moment we logged in, the members who had been pushing Da-jun's freshly made tteokguk at us glanced at the chat window, and upon seeing the words that repeated consistently, their expressions grew puzzled.
"Beloved sons…?"
[Has Hoyun also invested??]
“Well…hahaha.”
[Did Ho-yoon invest too??]
"Well… haha."
[You can read Seo Ho-yoon’s situation in his expression….]
Seo Ho-yoon, feigning ignorance and dodging the question, added a comment about recommending diversified investments after seeing serious posts like "Leverage is ruined" and "I need to sell my house."
[Reading Seo Ho-yoon's expression, his circumstances became clear…]
[Your stock chart is blue too… idols are all the same..]
Noel moved past that topic and then asked about New Year's wishes.
Seeing him, Jung Da-jun approached and asked Seo Ho-yoon what he would do for his upcoming birthday. Seo Ho-yoon, wearing an expression of indifference toward his own birthday, poked Da-jun's cheek with his index finger.
"Don't you dare make a cake."
"You have to eat it deliciously!!!"
Even after the agency was acquired by WH Entertainment, material provision itself was completely blocked.
They too wanted to celebrate Seo Ho-yoon's birthday lavishly and express their affection through gifts, but birthday tributes had been completely banned since his first year of debut.
And ever since the agency was acquired by WH Entertainment, material offerings had been entirely prohibited.
Does Seo Ho-yoon have no desire for money? I was shocked seeing the amount he donated last time. Of course, it's way better than desperately appealing for this and that like "I want this, I want that" lolol
[He's interested in stocks but has no greed for money..? That's strange too]
Comments that would astound those who truly knew Seo Ho-yoon circulated before gradually fading away.
[Kind Mr. Hoyun
[By the way, Seo Ho-yoon has been really~~~~kind lately]
[Kind Ho-yoon
[In the past, when I said that the newly introduced Noeuls were friendly to Seo Ho-yoon, I thought they were like beanbag legends… but recently, I also think that Seo Ho-yoon is just like a cute cat…
└You subtly appeal to me as a cat…]
Even though it had been more than three hours since the camera started rolling, the members did not stop chatting and cackling.
└You subtly appealing that he's a cat..]
However, the company did not control the live performance for no reason. Idols are also human, so as they get used to performing live, they gradually start to let down their guard. At the same time, there are parts that stick out through that carelessness.
Clearly, the fans loved the idols' sincerity.
Minor actions, values, habits, way of speaking, etc.
[Hoyoon is a bit strange to Lee Chae today]
And these traces sometimes implicitly revealed the person's defense mechanisms.
