Chapter 238 – #33. Amazing Star (8)

Amazing Star is a program that the company is paying all their attention to.
Because of this, we were receiving various information from the staff the day after we returned from filming.
Most of that was related to the opponent singer ‘Peko’ who was going to face off in the first round.

“Your opponent in the first round is a female singer named Peko. Her personality seems to be very timid. That’s why she has a lot of fans for her older sister.”
“Your sister’s fan?”
“That’s why you get cute. To the fans.”

Peko is 23 years old this year.
She was still young, but she was of an age that did not mean that she was very young.
However, he has a very timid personality and still has a lot of youthful features on his face, but after appearing on a variety show and being very shy to the cast, he came out pretty cute, and after that, he started to gain popularity among older fans.
FYI, she was said to be shy even to her self-manager.

“Your timid personality has become a character.”
“Yeah, that’s why Peko fans are a bit extreme.”
“Extreme Mom…”

Just by hearing the word, you can imagine how strong the fans will be.

“Honestly, you thought your opponent in the first round was easy, right?”
“I’d be lying if I said I didn’t.”
“You got it wrong. He is by no means an easy opponent.”
“Eww…”
“If you were preoccupied with the real Olivia Tree, you could be in big trouble.”
“Appearing on Amazing Star itself means that I am not an easy opponent. You will have to give your all in every fight.”

Three types influence the decision to win or lose in Amazing Star.

1. Viewer Vote [30%]
2. On-site voting [30%]
3. Expert Vote [40%]

Here, the audience who can vote on the spot is very picky.
By age, by preferred music genre, by race, and so on.
The selection was made as fair as possible under strict conditions.
In addition, she had to sign a declaration against the ‘racism’ that would inevitably arise because she featured singers from various countries.
Of course, this procedure will not completely filter out racist people.
There is no way to fully know a person’s heart.

‘Still, I can be alert while going through that procedure.’

That racism is not right.

“I’ve been collecting all the Peko stages, right? You need to know information to defeat your enemies, right? First of all, you guys just watch the Peko stage here.”
“Looking at you performing all day long, when do we make our stage?”
“Take a look. Only then will you come up with an idea of ​​what kind of stage to make and eat Peko.”

Do I even have to chew it?

Somehow, watching the employees who were more motivated than we were, we focused on the video of Peko’s stage that was meekly reproduced.
It’s amazing to be able to sing a song that resonates like that with such a small body.

“You sing a really refreshing song.”
“Because Peko is on stage first, you have to think about that too.”

Astar didn’t let us go right away after selecting a matchup.
I had to decide the stage order, and in case someone wasn’t a learned pervert, I ate the amount by order decision.
As a result of being a slave to the broadcasting station for a while and running around hard, I was able to achieve my goal.

‘Should I crush them with the first stage, or erase the previous stage from my memory with the next one?’

We chose the latter.
It would be a fortunate day for Peko.
We blew up and raised the atmosphere to the fullest, but they sang such a sweet and cute song in the back?
Perhaps the audience will lose their strength.
Of course, our choice wasn’t out of consideration for Peko.
It was a choice made purely because I didn’t want to make the audience feel weak.

“Your stage style is so different from ours.”
“He’s the one who does a quiet stage.”
“If we really said we would do it in front of us, it would have been a big deal.”

They’re going to make a fuss by popping and jumping, but they sing a calm song on the stage that they jumped on like that?

‘I’m glad he doesn’t cry.’

By the way.

“Your voice is so good?”
“The color of the music is clear, so if you fall in love with this kind of music, I don’t think there will be an answer.”

We continued to watch Peko’s performances and began to pick out her strengths one by one.
People’s tastes are so diverse that some people like popping music like us, while others like music that gives off a calming resonance like Peko.
That’s why we can’t guarantee 100% that we’ll win just because we hit the stage brilliantly.

“Don’t you think we need to make the performance bigger? To be honest, we showed enough of our performance with the stage we took this time. Let’s push ahead with our singing skills for the first round.”
“Singing ability vs. Singing ability?”
“Huh. Aren’t we less skilled than Peko?”
“Is it a complete confrontation?”
“What can I do?”

Those who haven’t seen the first stage properly might think that they are kids who can only dance well.
The singer is sometimes embroiled in lip-syncing controversies, but is there anything different about her overseas?
There will definitely be people who look at us with sharp eyes that it will be lip-syncing, and confidently show off your singing skills to them! Will take a picture

‘That’s how he falls for us.’

Once you fall into it, it will become a swamp from which you will not be able to get out.

“Let’s decide the song first.”
“A cover song would be good, right?”

Amazing Star had the mindset that it would be okay to do any genre of music as long as they could show the best stage.
Whether it’s a cover song on stage or a new song made and shown, there is no restriction.
However, he had to take responsibility for the results of the songs he chose.

“It’s hard to resonate with the audience with an unfamiliar song.”

Audiences show greater concentration when they hear a song they know or are familiar with.
Moreover, what if that song is your favorite song you usually listen to?

‘If you have a good impression on the song itself, you are more likely to get votes.’

It is foolish to throw away those interests and challenge new songs.

“But what song do you sing?”
“Hmm… How about that song Struggle.”
“That’s not a high-pitched song.”

It is a rock pop song with a powerful voice.
It was a song sung by a solo female singer, so it was also a song that we had to go through arrangements to sing.

“You mean you’re going to fight head-to-head with your real skills?”

As the word “Struggle” Is used in the title, the lyrics contain the meaning of fighting to overcome hardships.
The narrator of the lyrics is a boy.
To this boy, he is an orphan, and he calmly says that he is living on the streets.
The lyrics that are spit out in a low voice are somewhere lonely and a little trembling.
As if frightened.

The boy recalls the past.
Standing on the street waiting for her parents, it is late at night and she slowly realizes that she has been abandoned.
Old scary older brothers approach the boy.
They were like demons to the boy.
The boy earnestly hopes that if there is an angel to save him, it must be this moment.
But no angel came to the boy that day.

From then on, the boy spits out the crime he has committed in a voice full of resentment.
Carries iniquity, steals envy, deprives mediocrity.
That I am slowly becoming a devil, that it was the world that made it this way!
The boy who has become a good devil is howling and singing.

“It’s good to hear from you after a long time. It is also a masterpiece.”

And the devil speaks at the end.
Struggle!
To struggle don’t be a devil
Go to the light

“And I think it’s good because the lyrics are sad.”
“The music video came out well. This is a song that really deserves a remake.”

Among the scenes in the video, my favorite scene is the scene where a black boy dressed in white clothes runs in a cold sweat along an unknown road in a dark space.
The eyes of the black boy who appeared in the music video are really pretty, but the music video director must have known that the eyes of the black boy were pretty, so he focused on the eyes and filmed it.

“Can we recreate that production on stage?”
“Did you like that scene?”
“At least, if I’m going to perform this song on stage, I think it should have that kind of impact.”

A replay of the screen showed a black boy running through a dark space.
It pours out like a waterfall with a solid pitch

“As expected, I want to show that scene on stage.”
“Haesol hyung is completely obsessed with this song.”
“I don’t mean to do it with this song. If there is no better song, I want to do it with this song. First of all, each of us should pick out some good songs.”
“But you want to choose something with a similar vibe to this song, right?”
“Uh.”
“If you show me singing this live, it’s sure to turn things around.”

As we continued to watch Peko’s performances, we wrote down recommended songs whenever ideas came to our minds.

“There are 12 songs in total.”
“I have to pick it up now.”
“But fortunately, the stage styles we want to do are similar. Right?”
“Huh.”

It’s not easy to come to a consensus if the stages we want to perform are too different, but luckily we all wanted to do similar stages.

“Then let’s listen to all the songs selected here and pick out the ones we want to throw away.”

Thanks to the skill related to composition, I get a sense of how to arrange the song while listening to it.

“This song itself is difficult to arrange.”
“Then this song will be eliminated.”

One song is missing.

“Ah~ This is a perfect song.”
“Not bad, but…”
“Not good?”
“I can’t really think of what kind of stage to decorate.”
“Then, Saemo as a candidate for elimination.”

The next song is ambiguous.
The 12 songs selected after filtering and filtering for a long time quickly disappeared and narrowed down to 4 songs.

“I will just throw everything away. After narrowing it down to 4 songs, the rest of the songs are incomparable.”

All the members nodded her head saying yes at Ki Woo-yeon’s words.
Impact in terms of impact, song recognition in terms of recognition, arrangement convenience, etc.
They were good songs that did not lack any part among the 4 selected songs.

“Let’s sing the four songs ourselves and ask the staff to choose the best one.”

After 4 songs have been selected, all that remains is to sing to see if this song goes well with us.

“But aren’t we progressing too fast?”
“So, I already picked out all the songs.”
“It’s not enough to do it this fast. You know two weeks go by quickly. Fortunately, I didn’t plan to dance vigorously this time, so I had plenty of time. Thinking about the next stage, I like to do everything quickly.”
“But preparing for the stage like this is a bit fun.”

Before appearing on Amazing Star, I didn’t have time to have fun because of the pressure.
But when I actually appeared and prepared for the stage, I finally realized that it was fun.

“Uh~ that’s right. Don’t you remember the concert?”
“When I think about it during the concert, my heart races. It was really fun.”
“It was very difficult at the time, but now that I think about it, I want to do it again.”

Who knew I would miss the next concert already when it’s only been a few months since we did it?
Although it was physically difficult, the intangible energy I got from the fans was enormous.
I was very excited to see if I could feel that special feeling in Amazing Star.
