The Loser Idol's Rebirth Chapter 24丨Team Death Match
"Boys! did you all have a good rest?" "Yes!!" Looking around the set the contestants answer the MC's question vigorously. Signs were now placed around the auditorium, in a manner that anyone who watched the previous season would expect a team fight. The thought seemed to be shared between other contestants as they look around the set and exchanged glances among themselves. While it was unclear what the criteria would be, it didn't seem a bad idea to make some allies. Looking at the young-looking boy next to him, Soo-Ha can't help but have the thought that any team who had a nervous 16-year-old Go Yoojun in their team would either be a blessing or a curse. Focusing on the MC's announcement as he says. "This week's challenge... is a group competition!" "Oooh!" As expected, everyone's eyes reacted with a look of anticipation. "I'm sure everyone has someone they wish to team up with, right?" Seeing these kinds of words, Soo-Ha bets against himself that the next sentence would s
The Loser Idol's Rebirth Chapter 25丨Push The Button
After a bit of thinking, Soo-Ha had finally made his decision. While the team members were more important than the selection of the agency. As all agencies had their hit songs anyway, there wouldn't be a problem in song selection. This was after all a survival show, which meant... before caring about rank or grade, you need to care about yourself. And the only way to do that. Is to stand out. As Soo-Ha steps forward with his ball in hand. He raises his hand as if a student who is asking a question in class. Looking at him strangely, the MC responds "Yes, Soo-ha-ssi?" "Do I have to pick an agency?" "What do you …." Before he finishes his answer Soo-Ha smiles cheekily, "In that case, I choose... I choose to be kicked out" "Soo-Ha!" "Lee Gong-wook-nim, there shouldn't be anything wrong with my choice?" Turning to the crew for guidance the MC is given an okay sign by the head PD. Bang Geulyi who is watching the scene from the monitor with greedy eyes can't help but grab onto
The Loser Idol's Rebirth Chapter 26丨Come Back Home
In an instant, the set was filled with noise. The screen flashes between the names as it comes to a stop on one name in particular. "YU entertainment!" YU is the company that chooses charisma. The company of unique voices. The land of quality and freedom. YU entertainment is known both as the heaven and hell of the idol artist. Over the past 2 decades, it has grown from a small one-man company into a multinational conglomerate. During their time they have produced music and artists that seek perfection, and as a result, profits have gone through the roof. The company known for only caring about talent has built a reputation counter to what the industry prescribes. It is said that even the legendary actor Park Bo-gum who was widely known as a guaranteed rating draw was rejected. The thing about YU is that, while there were not many restrictions on the artists this same lack of restrictions, meant that the kids would often catch themselves in stupid situations. The
The Loser Idol's Rebirth Chapter 27丨Inferiority Complex
- "It includes female idol groups?" "How unlucky" Unsurprisingly, Micky's choice was simple. Of course, their reactions were not nearly as strong as those in team freedom. The team members near Soo-ha were murmuring like crazy. The problem is Timbre. Timbre is usually defined as a property that allows one to distinguish between sounds that are similar in pitch but produced by different instruments or means. It's the same with male and female voices (*though there is more overlap than between say a guitar that is plucked vs a piano string that is hit by a hammer). Vocal cords are of different lengths, meaning that to make a sound of a given pitch, a man will use a different technique, and different tension and create different overtones than a woman making the same pitch. It is for these reasons, that performing this song will be challenging especially considering the level of skill that most in Soo-Ha's group had. Beyond innate differences, 'Come back home' was.... a difficul
The Loser Idol's Rebirth Chapter 28丨Direction
Over the next two days, the atmosphere was quickly set as a desperate struggle. The important thing to do now was to paint an impact picture. The heavy breathing of the group and extreme effort that was put in during practice would show during editing. "You guys must have been very worried after receiving your song?" At the choreographer's words, the team members give a tired laugh. They couldn't tell him that Kim Seungwoo and Go Yoojun had put them in a marine like 'hell week' beating the choreography into their body. "How did everyone memorise the moves? Who taught the choreography?" "Uh... the team members who were a little more accustomed to dance" "Yes! We did it together!" Lee Soobin adds more to the silver ranked contestant's words. The choreographer just nodded, as the rest of the group stays silent. "Uh, you all must have worked quite hard." He twisted his neck, rolling it to the side. "But... I can't see anyone" Soo-Ha could hear the sound of the kids ne
The Loser Idol's Rebirth Chapter 29丨Love Has Two Sides
"Um guys, don't be all down. We worked hard these past few days. Thanks to that we were able to get the choreography together. From now on, if we focus on the song with the same energy, I think we will be able to put on the best performance. Let's make the instructors eat their words!" 'Look at this guy.' Soo-Ha smirks. If one wasn't careful, you'd forget he was an actor. It was so natural and comforting that it almost felt spontaneous. If Soo-Ha never picked up on his irregularities today, he may have even believed it was natural. "I actually have an idea!" He continues "Why don't we make it a little more fun? We can make it light, humorous and innocent. it should feel fresh right? We can even make the beat a little faster and turn it into a super cute version." At the end rather than an introspective approach, he wants to add a bit of cuteness. 'Interesting...He is prepared. He really thought about adding our flavour.' 'Shameless to say, but our advantage is our looks

Judging from the fact that the cameramen and women were focused on capturing the scene. It seemed that it would be edited well. However, there were two guys who didn't fit in this heart-warming environment. One was wearing a fake smile, while the other looked to be suffering from clinical depression. The one wearing the fake smile is none other than …. Lee Soobin. When he came to his senses, he must have realised that his actions were hasty. He couldn't help but be worried about how his words would be edited. Would he come across as petty and jealous? He tried his best to blend into the atmosphere somehow, but he also tried his best not to make any eye contact with Soo-Ha. He had too much pride to apologise. He was unable to follow Jinsang's actions. His pride didn't allow it. If it were Soo-Ha, he would have already caught the atmosphere and ended any negative feelings, saying that he was too harsh. Soobin was too short-sighted to realise that the atmosphere

Chapter 38 丨Two Hour Special
Knet Headquarters. The editing room located on the 9th floor is full of office workers who had stayed up all night toiling diligently. Bang Geul-yi, the head of the production was one of them. "Smiley, your eyes are red. Go grab some sleep" "I don't have time. Just bring me a coffee" It was her 7th cup already. The faces of all those who were currently looking at various video feeds were the same. All filled with exhaustion. "The first episode is important. We have to catch the flow of the story and the characters of the kids." What to show and what to cut. 12 hours of video multiplied by 101 cameras. All to be made into a digestible 1hr45 minute – 2-hour episode. Building a narrative that was fun, engaging and easy to follow would be the biggest challenge. "But still... You should still get some rest smiley." "Sujin-ah, you

At a promotional event held before the 1st episode aired.101 participants were given individual promotions.Of course, all that was required was the participant to sing <Pick Me> and get some pictures taken of themselves.This was because it has already been proven that the photos taken at these early production events could play a huge role in early ratings.The number of people was more than even the organisers had expected as they could barely contain the horde at the rails.'As expected, the face is the trend....'As Soo-ha was able to enjoy the attention that was paid to him, it seemed that it was a bit more than usual."We'll start after the reporters enter!"The production team announces as they lined up in the formation which was rehearsed at dawn.As the boys began warming up, someone unexpectedly came up and spoke to him."I saw your performanc

Chapter 36丨Performance Review
lthough the audience signed non-disclosure agreements. It was not rare for the spoiler bans to be broken. So, reviews of today’s recording could be found on various anonymous websites where personal information was hidden. *** [Review from Produce Season 3] The ‘Come Back Home’ group killed it *** Who the hell are these kids? They are popping up everywhere Kim Seungwoo Oppa is so hot! ∟ Noona above, he is young enough to be your son. ∟ He is my Oppa of my soul! Confirmed. They were really awesome! ∟ For Real? ∟ Did they also wear dresses? ∟ How can you make ‘Come back home’ cool? It was expected. No matter how much Soo-Ha thought about it, this was normal when the team consisted of Kim Seungwoo- the person who would later be called the inevitable number 1- however it appeared that the team was overwhelmingly mentioned. So much so that it would be hard to find any comments related to any other teams. In terms of the competition for atte

While the opposing team wasn't bad.In fact, they were above average when compared to the other teams.Amongst Micky, they had 2 or 3 other members who also had the potential to debut.However, the audience could not help but compare them not only with the original.This was the main problem that came with covering the latest hit songs.The original performance would still be imprinted in the minds of the audience.Even if their performance had somehow exceeded that of Big Bang, it wouldn't easily be recognised.The fans of Big Bang were all over the internet.In most cases, it would be buried under the netizen's opinions such as 'it cannot be compared with Big Bang'Of course, putting all that aside ….

Those who were able to come to their senses cheered enthusiastically. It was a stage that stimulated the hearts of the viewer, from innocence, desire, shock and to the solemn ending. It was a stage which could not be replicated. 'Crazy! Crazy!' Among those screaming, many felt that while this group was not nearly as cohesive as previous groups the individual skills of the members were exhibited to their utmost. Notwithstanding that the overall visuals that could be found were at the top of not only this competition but the nation. The voices of the excited audience can be heard here and there as they begin jumping in a frenzy. The group proceed to fist bump and pat the back of each other, as they wipe the sweat off their brows before bowing to the audience. "Thank you!" The member whose name has been known since before the competition wraps his arms around a cold looking senior who is struggling for breath in joy much to the older trainee's annoyance.

Chapter 33丨A Dark and Eerie Night
Why was it suddenly ‘come back home'? It was only after a few moments, that the bewildered crowd realised that this stage wasn’t covering big bang but its sister group! “What the...” The song wasn’t even a particularly popular one. It might have been better if it was a hit song like ‘I am the best’ because for most they only remembered the chorus of this song. It was the same for the mini paparazzo in the audience who was busy adjusting her camera settings. ‘Should I just take a picture of the audience?’ She thought as the faces made for interesting viewing. By the time, she had once more successfully hidden the camera away from the securities eyes, the stage darkened as the prelude began to flow out. The melancholy melody of the altered synthesizer filled the stage. Originally, this was where a neat female idol-style orchestra prelude of the 2010s would flow with various instruments and piano. The audience is shocked to silence as their eyes roll back.
