Idols Around the World 156

Chapter 156 – #22. Masked Singer 5 Crowns? (One)

“Actually, I am the white-haired prince riding a black horse.”
“Huh? Brother?”
“Ok? It’s not? Am I a white-haired prince riding a black horse?”
“You? Whoa!”

The members, who took my words as a joke, giggled and joked around.
Rather than persuading them with words, I decided to tell them directly and sang the song I sang in Mask Singer again.
“Suck!”
“Omg?”
“What is this, did I hear this at Masked Singer?”

It was only then that the members opened their mouths in amazement when they realized it was real.

“What is it, really?”
“Crazy.”
“Wow!”
“You said your older brother was a white-haired prince on a dark horse? Come to think of it, the voices are similar!”
“Wow why didn’t I know this?”
“When the hell was this filmed? Does anyone know Why didn’t anyone know?”
“That hyung doesn’t go out for a day or two, so I have no choice but to know.”

When I went to meet girls, there were many cases where I left without saying where I was going, and thanks to that, no members were curious even when I was away because I was on my way to appearing as a masked singer.

“I honestly thought that at least one of you would recognize my voice. But no one recognized me.”
“No. I knew!”

In a flash of light, she raised her hand and began making discredited claims that she knew.

“Do not lie to me. Kiwoon!”
“If you knew, you would have told us sooner!”
“That’s right. That light snout couldn’t have hidden what it knew all this time.”

Among her members, the one with the most light-heartedness is Ki Woo-yeon.
Convinced that if she knew, she would have spread it to the members earlier, the members dismissed Gi-yeon’s ridiculous claim.

“Isn’t it? I got it! But I didn’t say anything because my brother seemed to be hiding it. My mouth is as heavy as a padlock!”
“By the way, Haesol hyung, why did your singing skills improve so much?”

Nam-gyu, who neatly ignored Ki Woo-yeon’s words, spat out exclamations over and over again at my skills.
Kang Jun spoke naturally to Nam-gyu.

“Did Haesol sing well like that?”
“What! Goofy Get out of the main vocal spot! Haesol will give it to you.”

Todak todak-!

While Kang Joon and Nam Gyu fight like crazy.
Ki Woo-yeon clung to me and flattered me that I was so cool, and Kang Kyung-tae and Jeki were nodding their heads while listening to the song sung by the black horse prince again.

“But isn’t it really great if you’re the black devil prince?”
“Hey, is that really so? These days, there’s been an uproar about finding the identity of the white-haired prince riding a black horse.”
“Didn’t it seem like nobody knew?”
“Anyway, since there is an image of a male idol, it seemed like they didn’t even think about it.”

It is very difficult for male idols around the world to convince the public of their talents.
This is because there are so many things other male idols have done.
Male idols are those who don’t even have the skills and who have smooth faces and make them debut.
Still, women like it and follow it, and even have fans.
Because of that, the karma extends to us, and most boy groups are ignored just for their existence.

‘It’s no wonder that as soon as she saw me, Noh Hee-kyung didn’t just casually talk about her sexual harassment.’

While promoting, there was no one who said blatantly insulting words like Noh Hee-kyung, but there were definitely people who secretly or secretly approached and sexually harassed them.

“As expected, is Haesol hyung feeding our group?”
“Your brother is really great.”

I had a hard time acting for a while, but it was admirable that I was appearing on Mask Singer again and promoting the group.

“Where is the dark horse doll? I want to put that on my shoulder too!”
“So you’re going to win 5 crowns?”

I shook my head at Kyungtae’s question.

“Just because I want to win 5 crowns doesn’t mean I can do it. I think I will be eliminated on the next appearance.”
“No. It seemed to me that I could go further. This time, the white-haired prince riding a black horse became a hot topic. I think the production team would like to continue that topic a little longer.”
“Then, about three crowns?”
“It’s a pity to win 3 A awards! If it’s your skills, you’re guaranteed to win 5 crowns, right?”
“Isn’t 3 crowns enough? We also have to prepare for our overseas activities.”
“I have to graduate by winning 5 crowns! You have honor Everyone is in a frenzy that a hidden master has appeared, but I would be surprised if it turned out to be a male idol.”

There are really few people who graduated with 5 gold medals in Masked Singer.
This is because the production team’s ability is so good that they bring in talented people who are buried in the field.
Rather, it was also the fact that the mask singer’s honor of winning 5 crowns could be protected because the operation was so tight.

“Those who have graduated with five crowns so far have all been famous talents. There was not a single idol among them.”

Even female idols, who have more talent than male idols, did not make it into the top 5 mask singers.
So, if I succeed in winning 5 crowns, it will have a great symbolism.

“It means no one will be able to tackle your skills.”

I sighed heavily when I heard that it would be possible to renew the bad image of male idols.
It’s a program that I appeared in just to let people know my skills by singing a few songs, but it’s embarrassing that it’s received undeserved attention.

“So hurry up and practice mask singer. This is not the time for you to rest here!”
“You didn’t practice properly because you were hiding it from us, right? Obvious! Hyung, hurry up and go to the practice room!!”

The members who had been whining about wanting to appear on Masked Singer suddenly changed and brushed me off.
He said he must succeed in winning 5 crowns!
I only thought that the members would be surprised if I revealed that I was going to appear on The Masked Singer, but I didn’t think that I would brush it off like this.

“What were you planning to sing the next time you appeared?”
“I haven’t thought about it yet.”
“You should have thought of it beforehand! When are you filming?”
“Uh… There is still a week left.”
“You only have a week left!?”
“Let’s decide on a song first!”
“Hey hey hey! Calm down.”
“Quickly! You don’t have time to be like this?”
“Go to work! Company!”

Swayed by the fuss of the members rushing to help, in the end, the song to be sung in Mask Singer was decided in one day.
I also changed my mind about finishing with two crowns.

‘The members want that, so what is it that can’t win 5 awards?’

It is the singing ability that was obtained by putting in a lot of coins.
If I, who has a cheat key, can’t win 5 crowns, who the hell will do it?
However, there were many things to be aware of in order to reach the 5 crown.
So I diligently practiced the song I was going to sing in Mask Singer with my basic skills.

‘A song of a genre that suits me well!’

I wonder if any song wouldn’t go well with this skill, but it was true that my skills improved more when I sang the music I liked and was comfortable to sing.
I started to practice singing so seriously, and after seeing this, Kangjun also followed me and started practicing singing.

“I’m the main vocalist, so hyung can’t sing better.” That is Kang Jun-yi’s claim.
It was also the reason why he couldn’t stop Kang Jun-yi, who followed him like goldfish poop.

“Well, we look so lazy.”
“I need to practice dancing some more.”
“I’ve been on my hands for a while, but I need to write some rap lyrics.”

The other kids watching it didn’t stay still either.
She started practicing dancing, singing, and rapping by splitting her time from focusing on foreign languages.
As we suddenly flared up, only the dedicated team tilted their heads.

“Why are they suddenly like this?”

The manager who knew the situation informed the team in charge of the situation.

“When I heard that Hae-sol appeared on Mask Singer, she made a fuss about it, saying that she would win 5 crowns. Then, at some point, all the kids fell into practice.”
“?”
“Kang Jun-yi is the main vocalist, but Haesol-yi caused a stir with her vocals. I started practicing because I felt a sense of crisis, and the kids said they couldn’t stay still when they saw the two of them stuck in the practice room, so they split their time to practice.”
“These are really amazing kids. Usually, by now, the star disease is coming and trying to play somehow.”
“I think they’re going to be really big.”

It was the first time that even the employees who worked for a long time and built up their careers at an entertainment company did not suffer from star disease and steadily worked hard to improve their skills even a little.

“Even the Red Witch was shaken by star disease during this time.”
“Ugh, when I think of the incidents I went to fix them… At that time, I was a newbie. I really went through a lot of hardship.”
“They were beasts back then. Beast.”
Haha! That’s right, beast. Now I became human by eating mugwort and garlic.”

How good would it be if the world went well?
However, it is impossible not to encounter problems in a place where young people gather.
In the case of Red Witch, the members fought well, and there were a lot of guys who liked to drink, so we had a lot of accidents.
The agency took care of all of that, and by the time they got out of star disease, they were able to put on wings and fly in earnest.
However, the airplane was passing the time so calmly without any such problems.

“Rather, since you don’t have accidents like that, are you more anxious? These guys will definitely have an accident someday, but I want to know when it will explode.”
“I agree. It’s the same feeling as if you were beaten first.”
“Because they are calm kids, I feel anxious because I think they will play on a scale that is not a joke.”

From the beginning of their debut, they have gathered topics that exceeded expectations.
At first, he received attention thanks to the power of Honey Enter, but later, his popularity was possible because he worked hard for the visuals of Airplane.
And, if everyone around them was shaking, they were bound to be shaken.
It certainly won’t shake.
It’s just that the kids are upright and nice, so I’m passing it without any problems.

“I’m sure it will explode at least once…”

Unaware of the fact that the employees were looking at the airplane with uneasy eyes, they only worked hard to improve their skills.

Episode 3 of Masked Singer.

“The white-haired prince on the black horse, do you have any skills?”

The production team asked me for my personal skills.

“Well.”

There is a moment when I talk to the singer to make the amount, and at that time, it seems that he is thinking of giving me a personal skill.

“Right now, people don’t know the identity of the white-haired prince on a dark horse. That’s why I try to give hints while showing my individual skills.”
“Isn’t it better to hide it all the way?”
“Anyway, identity is bound to be revealed as time passes. If it’s not revealed too much, the reporters will be bothered to reveal it somehow. Before that, we are giving hints about our identity. Reporters don’t bother doing anything once they have a rough outline.”
“Oh~”
“Since you’re an idol, you have a lot of personal skills, right?”

No way.
I don’t develop personal skills.
Still, I couldn’t say no.

“Well, what can I do to be interesting and fun? It would be nice if the writer could give me some ideas.”
“Even if I say it, if the gray-haired prince doesn’t do it, it will end up being a joke…”
“Ah, don’t worry. I am called a talented person in the company. Does this work too? You often say things like that.”

The writer laughed at my joke.

“Really? Then, shall we tell you a few things?”
“Please just tell me. We can do it all.”

Among the individual techniques presented by the artist, the one I liked the most was the dance medley.
The writer also responded that it would be okay, given that it is a personal skill that can give a hint that I am an idol.
The second personal skill is vocal imitation.
All idols have at least one individual skill, and vocal imitation is the most important of them.

Third, exercise or physical ability.
It refers to showing off a novel sport or physical ability that others are not good at.

And I was able to pull off all three of these skills.
