Damn Idol Episode 40
* * *
"We are revealing the positions of 3 Months & 100 Days."
No matter how much I have forgotten or ignored the idol version, I still know the concept of positions.
Main vocal, lead vocal, sub vocal.
1st, 2nd, 3rd place.
Rappers and dancers are categorized in the same order.
No, there were no sub dancers?
Because all idol members have to dance anyway?
In fact, in English-speaking groups, there is no distinction between main vocals and lead vocals.
In the past, the face of the band was called 'lead vocalist', and it was rare to call them the main vocalist.
As time goes by, lead vocalist and main vocalist seem to be used interchangeably with the same meaning.
However, in Korea, especially the idol version, it seems to be used as a criterion to distinguish singing ability.
But what if you don't have an edge in singing skills?
Is there a team with two main vocalists?
I'll have to look it up on Namu Wiki later.
But why do people call Namu Wiki Geomu Wiki? (I think just for fun?)
'I'll just have to ask Choi Jae-seong.'
While I was thinking that, the position was revealed.
-
On Saemiro: Main vocalist
Lee Ion: Lead vocalist
Koo Tae-hwan: Lead vocalist / Main rapper
Han Si-on: Leader / Sub-vocal
Jaeseong Choi: Main dancer / Sub vocalist

I'm not the main vocalist but a sub vocalist?
According to common sense, I am worse at singing than the main vocalist and lead vocalist.
But that can't be true.
I am confident in my skills.
Shall we be a little more honest?
I don't know right now, but in two years, there will be no singer in Korea with a higher overall score than me.
I say overall score partly because there are people who are better than me.
Even if the singing itself is worse than mine, there are many singers who can handle a higher ultra-treble range or a lower ultra-low register.
However, if you were to give an overall score to the singer profession, I would definitely come in first place.
The same is true at this point.
At least in this gym, there is no one who has a deeper understanding of music than me and who sings better.
Including everyone from Blue, Yoo Seon-hwa, Lee Chang-jun, and Choi Dae-ho.
So, after putting aside my brief doubts, I became bored.
'I wonder if there's any pictures they need for broadcasting.'
When I think about it carefully, I think it's actually a good thing.
What I want is a quick debut after Coming Up Next ends.
It will be a great help if I can show that I can handle any role the team needs without making a fuss.
Moreover, I'm a leader who can interfere with the entire team.
Um, yeah. Let's show sincerity.
Since skills are not hidden by trying to hide them anyway, it would be better if Coming Up Next were treated more gently.
Even though they gave us useless parts, the picture is amazing, right?
Shall we start a fight with CEO Choi Dae-ho?
What should I say to that guy to get him scratched?
While I was thinking about that, the take scene position was also revealed.
-
Juyeon: Main vocalist
CU: Leader / Lead vocalist
Fade: Lead Vocal / Lead Rapper
Ilevel: Main dancer / Sub vocalist
Ready: Main Rapper / Sub Vocalist
-
Well, their positions must have been decided a long time ago.
Does this match I-Level or Ready?
It would be nice to hit fade one more time.
"If you are dissatisfied with your position, raise your hand. The only chance you have is now."
When Choi Dae-ho said that, I could feel the 3 Months & 100 Days members looking at me.
In particular, On Sae-mi-ro's eyes are hot, and this time, emotions can be read well.
'What should you do, you protest quickly?'
He is shouting with his eyes.
He seems to have a bit of a tsundere temperament.
Moreover, CEO Choi Dae-ho and the production team are also watching me closely, as if they are hoping that I will say something at this time.
Well, now that I think about it, there is something I really need to say here.
When I raise my hand, Choi Dae-ho points out as if he had been waiting.
"Yes. You tell me. Han Si-on participant."
"I think my position is wrong."
"What part specifically?"
"I think the eldest member, Lee Ion, should be the leader."
"... ... ."
"Please reconsider."
Why do you look at me like that?
Is it the rule of the country to never give up a leader position in an audition program?
* * *
Han Si-on did not mention anything about sub-vocals until the end.
They even turned off the camera and the writer who was in charge of Han Sion all along (even though they filmed from a distance) went and asked.
"Can I be a good leader?"
"Well, you'll be able to do well. It matches well."
"thank you."
"Is the sub vocal position okay?"
"sure. It's good."
"why?"
"We don't need a reason, do we? Every idol group has sub-vocals, and how brilliant they are."
The writer in charge trembled at Han Si-on's answer and returned to the producer's side.
There is no way it can be said here that the sub vocalist is not a very important position.
Then, you will be loved by countless idol group fans across the country.
Drop Out's Zero is a sub vocalist, but has topped the music charts four times with solo songs.
NOP's sub-vocalist Jo Joo-han also received favorable reviews from critics for his first full-length album with very sophisticated R&B tunes.
"It's so fucking strong. He never say anything."
"Have you looked at facial expression management? We don't have time to ask anything again."
"Can't we just scratch it gently?"
"What are you scratching? It's steel, no, it's titanium. My fingernails will break."
"Oh, Imagined it. I would said, 'But the sub vocals are a bit... ... .' and got beaten up by idols fans all over the country."
These were the words of the writer in charge and the main writer who visited Han Si-on one by one.
In fact, it was a slightly different interpretation from what Han Si-on actually thought, but it wasn't completely wrong.
Han Si-on really didn't mind becoming a sub-vocalist, but he thought he shouldn't be disliked by viewers with his reaction after becoming a sub-vocalist.
In the end, the production team postponed extracting Han Si-on's reaction for a while and resumed recording.
The idea was to try to listen to the truth when the recording took a long time and when he was physically exhausted.
The next recording was the 'self-introduction stage'.
Take scene and 3 Months & 100 Days have yet to see each other's performances properly.
In the karaoke mission, those who were in front of the group listened to them sing, but it was difficult to consider it as an official performance.
Since we will continue to compete in the future, we needed time to evaluate our skills.
On that stage, Han Sion chose the latest song that was released only a year ago.
SINCE's <I Never Played Around>.
It is a song with an addictive refrain and easy listening, and it was a song that immediately brought popular recognition to Synth, who was an unknown group.
Although it came down in just one day, it ranked first on the music charts and was also ranked in the top 50 on the monthly charts.
However, all of the songs except <I Never Played Around> were a huge flop, and <I Never Played Around> itself had a terrible stage performance, so it didn't have a fandom.
When Han Si-on selected this song, people tilted their heads.
There is no doubt that the song is good.
Even those who have never heard the name of the group Synth will know the chorus of this song.
Because a lot of it leaked out on the road.
However, the original performance of this song is really bad.
No, everything from the music video to the choreography is just perfect.
Until now, it was treated like a joke, but the boyfriend's confession that he has never joked around... ... .
'It was truly a song that made the viewer feel solemn.'
The synth members in the music video showed off their talents, and it was an exaggerated yet deadly feast of pretense.
Surprisingly, this was the best comment on the official music video.
-If you confess to me like this, my thousand-year unrequited love will cool off fuck
-People who like this are clearly perverts who want to feel sympathetic shame.
Of course, these comments were quickly reported and taken down, but they were stuffed and circulated as memes due to how many likes they received in that short period of time.
That's why Han Si-on's song selection was strange.
It's strange to just stand around and sing, and he chose a song where he can't change the senior group's choreography.
but... ... .
Light skinship, extreme jokes
Time spent together acting out boring facial expressions
I pretended it was nothing, but I-
Not even once
I've never played around
Han Si-on on stage was truly skilled and perfect.
First of all, he only did half of the choreography.
This doesn't mean that he copied only half of the entire choreography.
The upper body that sings only lightly follows the rhythm, and only the lower body performs the choreography for half of the time.
In particular, in the original refrain of this song, there was a choreography of Odubangjeong (exaggeratedly) dancing in circles around the girl... ... .
Han Si-on smiled slightly and limited his range of movement.
Still, the foot movements were fluid.
Thanks to this, it felt like the choreography that created solemnity was expressing shyness.
Of course, this type of performance was not without risk factors.
Performing only half of the choreography was definitely an element that could be criticized.
-It looks like the senior group's performance was really out of place haha. Let's show it off right away, right?
-This bastard never respects the original song throughout the program haha. It seems like he just lives to show off.
There are people everywhere who want to attack others, and idols are good targets for those people.
But in this case it was a bit ambiguous.
because.
When spring comes (when) I (I)
We want to see the flowers (two of us)
It was because this crazy guy copied all the parts originally sung by the 7 people.
Because it was a hastily airlifted MR, there were even parts filled with AR, and it was filled with the chords of the original song.
It was difficult to say that they danced poorly there, as they performed such a dense section so perfectly that it took everyone watching's breath away.
No, to be precise, you can do it, but... ... .
-No, who threatened you with a knife? There's no way to get through it without saying a single word lol.
-Nukalhyup singing methodㄷㄷ
>누칼협 is short for who threatened you with a knife? = has a strong meaning of ridicule, placing responsibility for past events that have already occured on the person involved.
-Ah, annihilator. This is [respect] for senior.
-A part with AR? Then, I will copy your chords!
-Oh, this is the part where two people sing the chords? Then, I will produce the correct composite sound of the two chords!
-Music fanatic ㄷㄷ
-Synth moms say that the senior choreography was performed poorly haha.
-Leave the overindulgence alone haha.
>과몰입 = It refers to a play culture in which people are so immersed in a drama that they think or act as if the world and characters in the drama exist in reality. When one is overly emotionally invested in others.
It would not evoke sympathy.
Of course, if you do this clumsily, you are likely to ruin the stage and be ridiculed.
But, as expected, his skills were as good as that of a gangster.
I pretended it was nothing, but I-
Not even once
I never played around
Delicate sound processing, clear high notes, and accurate pronunciation.
The emotions expressed through them.
It was clearly a house-based, easy listening song that wasn't easy to show off one's skills, but when Han Sion sang it, it felt like a masterpiece.
When you listened to it, you can feel a sense of excitement and freshness.
The writers who were watching Han Si-on's performance looked disappointed.
'Is this a protest now? Is he still a sub vocalist?'
'It seemed like he was really strong... ... .'
'This is an awesome demonstration of force... ... .'
Just like that, Han Si-on's self-introduction stage came to an end amid a slight misunderstanding.
