When I Opened My Eyes I Was a Superstar

# 198

First match (2)

“Can we do it in front of the stage we were supposed to do at the end of the recording?”

The members all looked confused at Park Taehyung’s words.

“why? PD does that? “Do you want to change the order?”

Hyungseo Ahn asked.

Since it was a recorded broadcast anyway, the order didn’t matter. For the sake of audience reaction, we just proceeded with the recording according to the broadcast flow, and just performed the stage at any time and edited it.

It was a stage that KK would have done anyway, but since she was currently wearing comfortable costumes as a panelist, she had to go through the trouble of having to immediately change into stage costumes and makeup.

Dowook briefly talked about what happened in the hallway and suggested that Taehyung Park and K.K should prove on stage that they were qualified to be judges.

“uh? How dare you call Taehyung?! Ah, good. “I’m going to change my knees on the stage floor today!”

“Don’t overdo it. Do what you do. Just like you did. “That’s okay, kid.”

Jeong Yoon-gi responded to Ahn Hyeong-seo’s words. Of course, it was true that Jeong Yoon-gi felt a little uncomfortable.

“great! It doesn’t matter whether you do it before or after.”

“Why not~!”

The expressions of the members who soon relaxed and responded were relaxed.

This level of leeway was natural. K.K. came to this point through a lot of hard work. I was confident that I could perform on stage without being embarrassed no matter who I stood in front of.

It wasn’t arrogance. It was a confidence that came entirely from hard work.

And with that confidence, the members had already decided to participate in the guerrilla performance proposed by V TV.

I felt confident that today’s performance in front of dancers from all over the country would literally ‘chew on it’ compared to the New York guerrilla performance that would be held in a month’s time.

***

The 〈Dancing Dancing〉 recording site had a large stage with audience seating in the form of stairs.

The people sitting in the audience were not the general audience but the judges and contestants themselves.

It was a system that allowed one to watch the other participants’ performances and judging details. It was a good opportunity for participants to check their own skills by comparing them with other people’s performances.

Participants first took turns filling the audience seats from the front.

They were all dressed to perform on stage right away, so they looked very unique. Just by looking at it, you could guess what the stage was going to be like.

The cue sign has been dropped. Red lights turned on on cameras installed everywhere. Dozens of cameras were installed to capture the contestants and judges’ stages, so there were no blind spots in the recording studio.

The participants gathered together in a tense manner and freely shared their opinions on today’s team decisions. This was also part of the fun of being a professional.

“I want to join Ha Jeong-woon’s team.”

“me too. “I hope I get selected.”

A young-looking man and woman who majored in dance sports whispered. Next to him was Jo Jung-min.

“Where are you going, Jo Jeong-min?”

The woman sitting next to me, who wanted to be on a team with Jo Jung-min, asked Jo Jung-min.

“well. “Either way is fine.”

When Jo Jung-min answered, the woman nodded. Behind them were participants with stern faces. They were the ones who met Park Tae-hyung and Do-wook in the hallway.

Those who stiffened for a moment and encouraged each other by saying, “You’ll do well,” looked down at the stage with arrogant expressions.

They had already done a preliminary interview saying that their dance would be better than Park Taehyung’s. It was sincere, without a single doubt. It was clear that they were better dancers than the blank-faced Park Taehyung they saw in the hallway, and all they had to do was show their skills.

The three participants thought so. Therefore, even though Cho Jung-min asked if he had seen Park Tae-hyung’s performance, he did not even think about looking for the stage during the waiting time.

Soon the judges entered.

All the participants stood up and applauded and cheered for the judges.

The judge sat on a protruding set in front of where the contestants sat.

Ha Jung-woon of Dance Sports, who was sitting in the center, grabbed the microphone and made a comment.

“ruler. “The new judge we’ve been waiting for is coming today.”

The former ballerina sitting next to me showed her anticipation by putting her hands together. The audience was also excited and said, ‘Oh.’ He made a sound.

“Introducing a new judge!”

Ha Jung-woon’s voluptuous voice resonated loudly throughout the recording studio.

Before recording, Taehyung Park visited the producer separately and expressed his thoughts in a stuttering but straight manner.

“I think there are contestants who don’t recognize me… Everyone has to acknowledge me… It’s not like this… They’ve never really seen me dance. …… In that situation, following the judges… and deciding on a team…”

The director made an expression as if he understood what I meant.

The producer was already willing to listen to any request as long as all KK members filled in one episode. The request was not excessive and was a request that could be fully accommodated.

The reason why the producer of included KK’s stage at the end of today’s recording was because he wanted to stage it as a spectacular curtain-raiser for the competition that will become increasingly fierce in the future after the team has been decided.

However, the direction was changed.

By introducing the judges and placing KK and Taehyung Park on stage at the beginning, we decided to capture the attention of viewers from the beginning of the program and include a narrative in which Taehyung Park would be recognized as a judge by the contestants.

Considering that about half of the viewers of the first episode of are likely to be fans of KK, putting Park Tae-hyung at the center of the program’s storytelling could have been a better choice.

The participants in the audience applauded and whistled, cheering even more intensely than before.

The stage lights turned on at once and the atmosphere at the recording site changed. Dry ice spread lightly beneath the stage, and the prelude to ‘Continue’ began to play.

The members chose ‘Continue’ rather than ‘Connection’ because they thought it better suited the purpose and atmosphere of the program ‘Dancing Dancing’.

As the jeonju was played, the participants, especially the women, covered their mouths and looked surprised.

“how how!”

“K-K, let’s see if they all come out!”

In fact, the participants knew that KK was scheduled to perform on stage, but they reacted in surprise following the words of the assistant host.

However, despite knowing this, when KK appeared, the female participants gave sincere reactions. When I saw KK in front of me, I couldn’t help but make a fuss.

“Con Con Continue!”

As soon as the prelude ended, the group entered the chorus with a magnificent sound.

The KK members stayed in formation and focused on the stage.

“We keep moving forward—!”

It was KK who usually performed on All Live on music broadcasts. However, today’s stage was performance-oriented, so it was not live.

When the energy that had been diverted from singing was focused solely on choreography, the synergy was incredible.

“Wow!”

“really……! It leaves me speechless…”

Not only the contestants but also the judges were mesmerized and focused on the stage. For broadcast purposes, it would be good to include a lot of comments during the stage, but it was difficult to react other than watching the stage with my mouth open.

“That’s a truly unified stage.”

“This is the stage that the people behind here will have to show from now on.”

“The energy is truly extraordinary.”

It was only during the process of creating a new formation that the judges commented one by one.

The common opinion of the judges, regardless of genre, was that if a performance of this quality is presented on the stage of , there is nothing more to wish for.

Do-wook’s expression as he stood at the center was overflowing with charisma.

Not only was her ability to perform the choreography perfect, but her ability to express herself on stage was also perfect.

“I’ll call you forever, I’ll run forever-”

As Ahn Hyeong-seo winked as he went up to the high notes, the female participants erupted in ‘awk’ as if it were a concert hall full of fans. A voice came out.

And as it was originally, it was an interlude part where the KK members would have to dance as a group.

“Oooh—!”

The members disappeared from the stage in an instant and Park Taehyung stood in the middle.

And then Taehyung Park’s solo dance began.

The participants’ eyes widened as they watched the powerful waacking dance to the prelude to ‘Continue’. Taehyung Park’s arms moved quickly. I felt moderate and flexible at the same time, and I didn’t lose strength.

“He’s really good.”

One participant from the street dance team said with admiration.

He wasn’t ignoring Taehyung Park, but he thought he was also an ‘idol dance’ expert, but he didn’t think that Taehyung Park would be superior to him in the same field. It was a skill that felt like a lot of practice.

Jo Jung-min, who knew Park Tae-hyung’s skills, was also surprised.

‘It’s really increased tremendously! All I knew was the level of blood on my new feet.’

Even after watching the short KK stage, I was already surprised. When hard work is added to natural talent, not only the current Taehyung Park but all the KK members have become monster-like talents.

In the remixed sound source, the sound in the interlude became faster and faster.

Taehyung Park, who showed off his brilliant waacking, performed a breakdance to the faster sound and said, ‘Boom.’ It flew off the stage with a sound effect.

Applause poured in for Taehyung Park, who landed perfectly with his hands on the stage.

The participants stood up and cheered without the assistant facilitator telling them to. One or two people started to stand up, and as the entire group stood up and became enthusiastic, the three participants who were looking at the stage with stern faces also stood up.

Even if they tried not to realize how arrogant it was to think that they were better than Taehyung Park, they had no choice but to realize it.

Technically it was also amazing. However, Park Tae-hyung even had great skill due to his tremendous stage experience.

Since I could even feel which camera the red light was coming from, even the gaze processing was perfect.

The KK members gathered around Taehyung Park, who was receiving cheers. Even the judges stood up and applauded.

Because they were professionals with considerable experience, they knew better how much effort went into the performance that KK and Taehyung Park showed.

Taehyung Park, who was smiling shyly, looked towards the audience.

Taehyung Park’s eyes met with the participant who had previously looked down on Taehyung Park. The three participants unconsciously made eye contact with Taehyung Park and lowered their heads, not knowing what to do.

It wasn’t a calculated move. It was literally a surrender to skill.

Do-wook, who was watching this from the side, smiled and tapped Tae-hyung Park on the shoulder.

“Now then, Mr. Taehyung, please sit in the judges’ seat and-! “I’ll take a 3-minute break and then start recording again!”

The assistant director shouted.

Even while the KK members were going down the stage through the stairs, the participants were buzzing while looking at KK.

It was bound to be a stage that would leave a long lasting impression.

Do-wook came down from the stage and looked towards Jo Jung-min for a moment.

I was thinking about what Jo Jung-min said in the hallway.

“thanks. If you hadn’t been mad at me, I would have lived my whole life as an arrogant piece of trash. Just like Seo Kang-jun…”

Jo Jung-min, who said that, added that Seo Kang-jun came to mind.

“It looks like that kid will return to the entertainment industry again.”

Do-wook frowned for a moment at Jo Jung-min’s words, which he mumbled like he was talking to himself, and then asked.

“You’re making a comeback…?”

Jo Jung-min nodded and answered. He said he didn’t know much about it, but he heard about it from trainees he met at Ara Entertainment.

Seo Kang-Jun was telling the Man to Man members that he would soon return to Korea and that he would soon regain his former position.

‘Seo Kang-Jun is back….’

Seo Kang-Jun or Director Seo Jung-Won. When I thought about the shameless rich man who had no sense of remorse, I thought that Seo Kang-jun might show his face again one day.

But it was too fast.

‘It’s not going to go your way.’

Do-wook thought and looked away from Jo Jung-min.
