Chapter 292
The managers sitting behind the camera were the first to flip over.
“Hahaha!”
Minki and Dowon Hyung became a lump of laughter, and the PR Team staff clutched their stomachs.
Like a waterfall going backwards, ‘ᄏᄏᄏᄏ’ kept popping up in the chat window.
They also burst into laughter as if they were out of breath.
“...”
In the midst of that, their main dancer hanging in the air was waving his legs.
Somehow, even the swaying felt elegant.
But the person in question was embarrassed and covered his face with both hands.
“Uh...”
Woojoo could feel his embarrassment just by looking at the back of his head.
Their bear just said ‘I successfully completed the mission’ with a serious expression.
“Hey. Let me down.”
“Just a moment.”
Junghyun looked at Woojoo and nodded.
“Hey, hey! Kim Junghyun!”
He didn’t just let him down, he lifted him up and put him down on the chair.
“Hahaha!”
Rihyuk fanned the script as if he sympathized with Bijoo, who was sitting in his seat and embarrassed.
The comment window sparkled in the meantime.
-ᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏBijooᄏᄏᄏᄏ
-Ah, Bijoo is embarrassed
-(Whispering) Oh my... Bijoo is embarrassed... (Whispering) But the lion was funny just now.
-The managers are like that too, and everyone is laughing so meanlyᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏ I’m laughing too, of course.
-ᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏHow do you stand this
They denied it.
“Laughing meanly... Pfft... No way.”
“We’re not laughing... Hehe... At all!”
“Why are you all doing this to Bijoo Hyung? Right?”
But even Rihyuk, who was scolding them, was dancing with his mouth twitching.
Their faces were full of laughter on the tablet.
When Bijoo opened his eyes and looked at them, Woojoo wrapped up the comment as a DJ.
“This will be extracted and uploaded as a highlight. Minki?”
“Yes.”
“Please insert the movie OST there.”
The younger ones clapped and laughed.
Bijoo, the person in question, also imagined it and laughed.
Then he took out a light stick from under the table.
“Why are you taking that out?”
“There’s a scene from a famous movie. A machine that erases memories with a flashing light. Now you all have to look at this light and forget.”
Woojoo laughed at the somewhat cute idea.
Flash!
The flash of the light stick swept the screen for a moment, and the Soufflés and New Black tried hard to forget.
-I... I don’t remember
-Who are these people...?? Why am I crying?
-Where is Hanyang?
-ᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏI’m so embarrassed... But where is this?
-I can feel the acting from the comments for the first time...
-Let’s not act
-They’re laughing meanly againᄏᄏᄏᄏ
Actually, it was a warm-hearted laugh.
Woojoo wondered if it was a sense of kinship that a singer and the fan had.
If you wanted to erase your memory, it would be better to hit the back of your head with a light stick once. Bijoo fiddled with the light stick at the comment. ṞÂNO₿ЕŜ
They all agreed and told him to put his hand down.
“Well, let’s move on from memory erasing. Wow, time has passed so quickly. I didn’t even do Q&A properly.”
“Let’s do it in part 2. Part 2.”
“Then let’s move on to part 2... Rihyuk, have you finished searching for the lyrics?”
“Yes.”
“Then I’ll listen to the song request.”
Except for Bijoo, who didn’t know English, the other younger ones exchanged serious eyes.
“It’s the OST of a masterpiece animation.”
“...”
“Shall we sing it together~?”
As Woojoo tapped the piano keys, the younger ones stretched out their hands in the air and sang ‘Naju Plain~’.
As they laughed at the comments, they finished the ‘Jibaba’ challenge. By then, Bijoo was chasing after them as they ran away.
From 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.
After the first Y app live broadcast of New Black with the fans.
The Soufflés were screaming with joy.
‘New content...!’
When the live broadcast ended, they saw that new content had been uploaded.
‘Wow. There’s so much.’
It seemed like they had prepared a lot of content in advance.
-222 That’s right
-What’s rightᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏ
It was New Black’s content that flowed abundantly, making them wonder how they did all this work.
Woojoo laughed every time he saw the fan cafe.
The skinny Soufflés became fluffy and rolled around in the New Black World.
They were happy with the amount of content, and they felt like they were feeding them, saying ‘Eat more. More...’.
Woojoo didn’t know how much he laughed when he saw a post on the internet from the PR Team saying ‘The singers who are expanding their fans right now’.
He was proud at the same time.
The content that they had made in between since the Legendary Song Discovery Team and the History Discovery Team had paid off.
“The general public’s reaction is good too. The number of subscribers to New Black 2TV is increasing fast.”
“Wow.”
They created a channel called New Black 2TV, separate from their YouTube account, New Black TV.
It was because they considered the general public who didn’t want to see dance videos or content for fans after they got to know them through the History Discovery Team.
If there was someone who liked them and wanted to see more, they designed a system that would naturally connect them to New Black TV.
If they expected content like the History Discovery Team, but kept getting subscriber notifications like ‘Do you want to see the dance video? Do you want to see our kids’ fan points?', it could cause aversion.
Thanks to that, subscribers to New Black 2TV channel increased at a fast pace.
“Wow! Guys, look at this. The unit number of subscribers changes every time I refresh.”
“Wow...”
Every time they checked, they could see the number of subscribers increasing in real time.
It was the moment when the recognition on YouTube that they had built up with the History Discovery Team shone.
The comments on the video also looked satisfying.
Of course, not everything was positive.
“Um... it’s good, but I think we should refrain from commenting now.”
“YouTube was fine until now... but this place is no longer a place to stay.”
Woojoo didn’t know how to express it, but there were more comments that gave him a feeling that he didn’t want to deal with.
There were also comments that asked if they had permission to film, even though they did.
As the fame increased, so did the weird people.
It was something he had to accept as a job that dealt with the public, but he didn’t think he needed to see it with his own eyes.
Besides, they were busy.
“Okay, let’s check it again!”
“A little faster!”
“Here, when we spread out like a wave, you guys walk in between. OK?”
They met with the dance team that would help with the concert and checked the movement on the stage.
The collaboration with the live band session was almost done.
The only things left were the Dolympics and the concert.
As time passed, they all felt that the comeback was getting closer and closer.
And then.
From November 2013, when Woojoo became a hero in Galhyeon-dong, to August 2015, something happened almost every month.
“...”
“Why are you all staring at me like that? You’re also New Blacks, just like me.”
Woojoo’s siblings backed away from him as if he were the eye of a storm that caused accidents and incidents.
He demanded them to change their reactions.
“Don’t look at me with awe.”
“Wow...”
“Don’t admire me either.”
“Oh...”
They looked at him with ‘oh’s as if they were witnessing a great natural phenomenon. Woojoo felt a headache coming on.
The things that had caught people’s attention one by one were combined into one by someone’s summary, and he was transformed into a person who caused strange things to happen.
Even the employees of the management support team, who Woojoo rarely ran into, would pass by and say ‘oh’ and look at him with curiosity.
Their Lady Deoksoon also said something had stuck to him and offered to write him a talisman, making a big fuss.
“...I have to think positively.”
It was actually a positive thing.
Woojoo’s name and the word ‘New Black’ had spread all over the internet, and it felt like they were imprinted on people’s brains.
Woojoo’s name was on the real-time search for more than a day.
He already had a lot of people who knew him, but for the next few months, he felt like anyone who asked him his name on the street would know.
That was why he had a lot of advertising requests coming in after the second part aired.
“A telecom ad?”
“From telecom to everything else, all kinds of ads are coming in. You guys might even get a phone ad if you do well.”
“...Wow.”
“The new product’s name is Boomerang, by the way.”
“...”
Woojoo could guess what kind of ads they were.
After one episode of the variety show aired, everything unfolded so fast that it felt like his soul was sucked out.
While he was sitting in the practice room, practicing choreography and vocals, all kinds of chaos were happening outside.
It was a bit of a heated atmosphere, so he planned to calm down and properly review the results he had gained this time.
“Let’s not get too excited for now, and practice calmly. Bijoo, stop saving those memes.”
“Yes...”
It was a good thing, but he felt like he had to keep his balance at times like this.
Woojoo had engraved his name, but he had to be more careful with this kind of flash popularity.
He comforted his siblings who were more excited than him and continued with the concert practice.
And when the shower of variety show popularity subsided a bit.
They got a call from Seokhwan Hyung and were slightly surprised by the story that followed.
“Yes?”
“What event?”
While they were immersed in practice, they had an unexpected schedule that they had never anticipated.
