Chapter 26
Chapter 26
High school seniors are invincible after the college entrance exam!
Imiyeon, who was holding a placard and a cheering stick in both hands, sat down in her seat with a giggly smile.
She was a first-year fan of Westwing, and she was amazed by the broadcasting station she visited for the first time. The things she had only seen on television were right in front of her eyes.
Are you Imisarang?
Hi, nice to meet you!
It was her first time attending a music show, so she had arranged to meet a third-year fan she had been in contact with through SNS. She had the nickname of Your Sky. Your Sky smiled and sat next to her.
Westwing will be the last to come out. Until then, please listen to the songs of other singers well. And it would be nice if you could respond well too.
Okay. I got it!
She was waiting nervously, and it finally started.
[Hello! The Music Show that comes to you without fail every Thursday at 6 oclock!]
[MC Lia here!]
[MC Minwoo here!]
Woah!
The staff prompted applause. Your Sky clapped skillfully, and Imiyeon, who was sitting next to her, clapped a beat late.
Theyre so pretty.
This is why they say idol idol. The MCs who she saw in person were more beautiful and handsome. She heard a whispering voice from the front seat as she admired them.
Ah. It seems like were the only ones here.
We cant help it. Theyre new and they dont have any famous trainees. Its amazing that were here.
Who are they? She glanced and saw people holding placards that said [Love Bubla!] [Brown Black Fighting!] [Congratulations on your debut!].
If its a debut, are they debuting today? Brown Black? Imiyeon tilted her head.
[Were nervous from the first stage today.]
[Yes. Some very cool rookies are debuting.]
[Oh, have you met them, Lia?]
[No. I have to see them now!]
Imiyeon nodded at the MCs introduction. The first stage must be the group that the people in front of her were cheering for.
They might make mistakes on their debut stage.
Thats true. Westwings debut stage was
Your Sky also shook her head as if she had heard it. It was a debut stage that would remain as a long dark history. But that video became a stepping stone for them to become famous, so it was a bittersweet debut stage for the fans.
[Oh, their names are as sweet as cocoa!]
[We hope that all of you who are watching The Music Show will have a great Start! like their songs!]
[The beginning of Brown Black!]
Imiyeon and Your Sky didnt have much expectation. They just thought they would cheer for them because it was their debut stage.
Four men stood on the stage. Brown Black, who wore suits, looked like they had just gotten a job as young professionals, or like freshmen who had dressed up well.
As the song started, the audience was silent.
The fans who were waiting for their singers, the chatter they had, the coughing sound, the sound of the chairs rattling, all disappeared.
Only Seo-jun, who was not here, could see the numbers that sparkled above Brown Blacks heads.
[The connection of the orchestra conductor is activated.]
Here is the edited version of your text:
Imiyeon felt invincible as a high school senior who had just finished the college entrance exam. She grinned as she held a placard and a cheering stick in both hands and took her seat.
She was a newbie fan of Westwing, the hottest boy band in the country. She was thrilled to be at the broadcasting station for the first time, seeing the things she had only watched on TV.
Are you Imisarang? A voice asked her.
Hi, nice to meet you! She replied.
She had never been to a music show before, so she had agreed to meet a senior fan she had befriended on social media. The woman had the username Your Sky and greeted her with a smile. She sat next to Imiyeon.
Westwing will be the last act. Until then, enjoy the other singers performances and cheer for them too.
Okay. I will!
Imiyeon waited anxiously, and then the show began.
[Welcome to The Music Show, the program that brings you the best music every Thursday at 6 oclock!]
[Im your host, MC Lia!]
This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com
[And Im MC Minwoo!]
Wow! Imiyeon exclaimed.
The staff signaled for applause. Your Sky clapped expertly, and Imiyeon followed a beat later.
Theyre so gorgeous.
She understood why people were crazy about idols. The MCs looked even more stunning and handsome in person. She overheard a whisper from the seat in front of her.
Looks like were the only ones here.
Well, what can we do? Theyre rookies and they dont have any famous trainees. Its a miracle that were here at all.
Who are they talking about? She peeked and saw some people holding signs that said [Love Bubla!] [Brown Black Fighting!] [Congratulations on your debut!].
Are they debuting today? Brown Black? She wondered.
[Were so nervous for their first stage today.]
[Yes, we have some amazing newcomers debuting today.]
[Have you met them, Lia?]
[No, Im about to see them now!]
Imiyeon nodded along with the MCs introduction. The first stage must be the group that the people in front of her supported.
I hope they dont mess up their debut stage.
I know, right? Westwings debut stage was
Your Sky shook her head, remembering. It was a disastrous debut stage that became a notorious legend. But that video also made them famous, so it was a mixed blessing for the fans.
[Their names are as sweet as cocoa!]
[We hope that all of you watching The Music Show will have a wonderful Start! like their songs!]
[Here comes Brown Black!]
Imiyeon and Your Sky didnt expect much. They just decided to clap for them out of courtesy.
Four men in suits appeared on the stage. They looked like fresh graduates who had just landed their first jobs, or college freshmen who had dressed up nicely.
The music started, and the audience went silent.
The fans who were waiting for their own idols, the small talk they had made, the coughs and the creaks of the chairs, everything vanished.
Only Seo-jun, who was not there, could see the numbers that glittered above Brown Blacks heads.
[The orchestra conductors connection is activated.]
Imiyeon was mesmerized by the idols stage that she saw for the first time in her life. She stared at the stage without blinking. Her mouth was slightly open.
Before she could react, Brown Blacks song reached its climax, and
Bang!
The confetti exploded. She got goosebumps.
Wow
Brown Black, who finished their stage, took a deep breath and bowed to the audience.
Imiyeon clapped without realizing it. Her applause was followed by cheers and shouts from the audience.
Brown Black, who were heading backstage, heard the cheers and nodded repeatedly as they disappeared.
Wow. So this is what live performance is like? I only watched TV all the time because I was studying I never went to a concert! Wow. If a debut group is this good, West Wings stage must be amazing!
Imiyeon chattered excitedly. She was impressed by the unexpected stage. If a group that just debuted was this good, how amazing would West Wings stage be, a group that was famous and had been active for five years? Her heart raced.
Next to Imiyeon, who was sparkling with excitement, Neoui Haneul snapped out of his trance.
Ah.
Whats wrong?
Neoui Haneul shook his head. It was better to show than to tell.
He looked at the people in front of him. They must have been the fans of the group that performed the amazing stage.
As he expected, they were talking with bright faces. Neoui Haneul saw the placards they were holding.
[Brown Black]
It was the debut of a remarkable rookie.
The Music Show continued. But unlike usual, the audiences reaction was not very enthusiastic.
They responded to the singers they liked, but it was weak. They were still captivated by the first stage.
He couldnt help but compare the first stage with the other singers stages.
The Music Show ended with West Wings stage. Imiyeon got up from her seat with a disappointed expression.
I dont know. I was looking forward to it, but it was not that great. The songs seemed like half lip-synced, and the dance was not in sync either.
It was the first group that was amazing.
Neoui Haneul patted Imiyeons shoulder, who had lost her energy. Imiyeon recalled the first stage of The Music Show, which made her heart beat even when she thought about it again.
What was the name of that group?
Brown Black.
Neoui Haneul, who decided to become a fan of Brown Black, said with a smile.
The Music Show was over. The staff were cleaning up the confetti that had exploded at the end. Kim Minhyuk came with a cup of coffee, smiling.
PD Lee Sangcheon took the cup and took a sip. He wanted to work with this guy just for the coffee.
It was pretty cool, wasnt it?
Hmm? What was?
Brown Black? The group with the rich kid.
Theyre doomed.
What?!
Kim Minhyuk was shocked by Lee Sangcheons words. How could they be doomed when the stage was so good?
Didnt you like them too, so you set off the confetti for their stage?
That was really embarrassing
PD Isangcheon rubbed his forehead. Why did his work ethic have to show up at such an inconvenient time? He didnt even know he had such a thing in him.
He had unwittingly set off the confetti and had a hard time cleaning it up. He had to sweep the stage of the confetti for the next singer, and he had to prepare the confetti for the announcement of the first place.
PD Isangcheon felt dizzy when he thought of what happened an hour ago. He was lucky that he had some spare confetti.
Kim Minhyuk sat on a chair and asked.
Do you think our ratings will be amazing today? The SNS was buzzing with how awesome our stage was after it ended
It would be a hit if it was a recorded broadcast. But were live, you know. People switched channels after hearing how great our first stage was, but they saw the same old thing. The online forums must be exploding by now.
Kim Minhyuk wondered and turned on his phone.
Besides, you know youve been talking about them non-stop, right? They overshadowed the backstage with their stage. Were screwed. We should have switched their order to the backstage. They were so nervous during the rehearsal!
Despite Isangcheons lament, Kim Minhyuk just stared blankly at his phone. Isangcheon PD sensed something was wrong and asked.
Whats wrong?
Theyre on the real-time search
Kim Minhyuk showed him the phone screen.
- The Music Shows first stage
- Brown Black The Music Show
- Brown Black
- Brown Blacks debut
- The Music Shows audience review
NEW! 48 hours with Brown Black and Jun
Theyre on the real-time search!
Seo Eunhye quickly looked at her phone at Lee Minjuns words. Seo-jun, who was in his mothers arms, also looked at the phone screen.
Brown Black, audience review, first stage!
Wow. Amazing!
Seo Eunhye and Lee Minjun were flustered. They were trembling until they video-called them, but their stage was so brilliant that it gave them goosebumps.
And it seemed that they were not the only ones who felt that way. People wanted to know who the group was that performed the first stage.
Seo-jun, your brothers are really amazing! Wow! Really, I thought they were just hard-working guys, but they did such a cool stage!
I wish I could have seen it in person! Its such a shame, really.
While Lee Minjun and Seo Eunhye praised Brown Black endlessly, Seo-jun, who was looking at the blackened television, felt something burning in his chest. It felt like something was on fire deep inside.
The stage of Brown Black that Seo-jun saw was definitely amazing. It was not only the result of [the connection of the orchestra conductor], but also their effort, skill, and talent.
The applause and cheers that came from beyond the television after Brown Blacks stage. Seo-jun felt the admiration and excitement in them.
They were the brothers who played with me just a month ago.
Theyre even on SNS with their pictures!
The video they took with Seo-jun is also on the search!
Mom and dad were excited without knowing Seo-juns frustration. In his mothers arms, Seo-jun looked at the phone screen.
The bright smiles of his brothers on their way home.
The brothers with red eyes from crying.
In the narrative, someone compared photos of BrownBlacks commute to work with their journey home, highlighting a transformative journey. Initially unnoticed, a photo of BrownBlack faintly captured behind a famous singer contrasted with their beaming smiles surrounded by cameras upon returning home. Seo-jun, gazing at the photos, realized that the life he yearned for in his first existence was unfolding before him.
BrownBlacks path mirrored his own. Unlike his first life, where he remained unknown and passed away in obscurity, they managed to shine despite starting as nobodies, stepping towards the stardom he had always desired.
The casual vow to become a superstar suddenly loomed large for Seo-jun. Tears streamed down his face as he stared at his phone, unaware of the tears or the commotion of Seo Eun Hye and Lee Min Jun around him. He was too engrossed in the images on the screen to notice anything else.
Seo-jun had helped his brothers out of sympathy for their anonymity, not wanting them to despair as he had in the past. But seeing them now, sparkling in the limelight, he realized he truly wanted to be a superstar, independent of his past life.

Does anyone know this song? I couldnt record it it was coming from upstairs.
Doo-doo-doo-doo, da-ra-ra-ran, da-ra-ra-ran, doo-doo-doo-doo
Something like that!

-How could anyone know?
-Isnt it Together by West Wing?
-Here comes another chicken wing
-Try writing down the lyrics

-What incredible lyrics
-Accusation of plagiarism!
-Brians Tiki-Taka!
-OP: Neither of those.
Thus, a popular music forum on the internet was set ablaze. Even after the original poster who kept saying no disappeared, wild guesses continued. Eventually, the post made it to the top.

[The Common Way to Promote a Rookie Idol]
The man downstairs didnt know what to do.
I didnt mean for this to happen
He tried to find and upload his own video from the variety show of BrownBlack that was on YouTube, but it looked somehow edited.
It was because Seo Eun-chan had edited it beforehand to prevent the rumors that he had hired someone to appear on the show.
The man posted another message a few weeks later.
