9 – Devil of Jeonnam

Episode 9

The next day, Winter and I looked for an inexpensive practice room online.

It was because of Winter’s active will to practice properly for 5 days.

Once I checked the winter status window and knew its potential, I didn’t think it was necessary to go that far.

This is because I judged that there would be no difference in showing that talent whether I practiced hard for about 5 days or not.

I wasn’t going to sell jewelry.

I was going to sell gemstones.

And I thought that a producer like Cheon Jong-hoon would recognize just how high-quality the gemstones of Winter are.

However, I thought it was a good thing for me to be proactive, so I helped her a little.

We found an inexpensive rental practice room near the nearest station and went to visit it.

“So, what about you at school? “He said he was a freshman in high school.”

“Oh, that hikikomori? “It’s similar, I don’t have to go to school anyway so it’s okay!”

It wasn’t okay at all.

However, it wasn’t my business to interfere.

“Yes, these days, if they feel like they won’t be able to go to college with their grades after attending school for just one semester, there are quite a few cases where they drop out and take the qualification exam right away to get into college early. “There is nothing bad if you have a plan.”

“hehehe, I don’t have any plans like that, I just have a hard time getting along with people.”

Grandpa Winter, how could you trust and support your granddaughter like this?

If it were me, as soon as I heard that I lost my wallet, I would have yelled at him to come down to the house right away.

Winter glanced at me, as if aware of these thoughts. And every time our eyes met, they were smiling brightly.

So, is it really a big deal if I don’t go to school?

I am also a high school graduate and have lived well.

Just show it to Cheon Jong-Hoon.

After a short walk, we arrived at the location where the practice room was located.

“I guess it’s here!”

The place Winter pointed to was an old building that made one question whether it was operating normally.

It looked like it would be full of dust, so I didn’t want to go in, but the map app said it was the right place, so I followed the signs and went down to the basement.

The rental practice room located on the first basement floor was quite narrow, and because it was in the basement, ventilation was poor.

However, the full-length mirror was in good condition and the floor was well finished, so it seemed like there would be no problem using it alone.

Above all, the price was very reasonable.

Consistent with the impression I received, Winter also seemed quite satisfied with the practice room she would use for five days.

“I feel safe because it feels like my room is narrow and dark.”

It didn’t seem like everyone had the same impression.

“… “Okay, I’m glad you’re satisfied anyway.”

I used the money I received from Grandfather Winter to make a reservation for about 4 hours with the studio staff. Then he handed Winter some money and said,

“I’ve already reserved 4 hours, so if it’s not enough, I can use that money to reserve more. Eat delicious food at a nearby restaurant. “If anything happens, call me.”

As I finished my business and got ready to go, Winter spoke dejectedly, like a sullen puppy that had not been able to go for a walk.

“Are you leaving?”

Perhaps Winter wanted to see me dancing and singing.

In addition to being both an idiot and a hikikomori, he seems to want an audience when it comes to dancing and singing.

I was strangely proud of it.

To become a celebrity, you had to have that level of attention-seeking quality.

In fact, regardless of Winter’s talent, I thought that due to her timid attitude, she would easily lose interest in being an idol and give up.

But it seems it was unlucky.

Yes, if you have that much talent, you should be confident in your main job.

I sat down with the mindset of checking the performance of the S-class character I picked through the gacha.

“Well, shall we take a quick look?”

Winter said with a big smile.

“and! “Then I’ll show you the song I practiced.”

As Winter whined and played around with the laptop she had brought, a song began to flow through the speakers.

Winter’s song of choice was Seven Star’s ‘Appu’.

Oh, the song selection is pretty aggressive?

Seven Star’s ‘Eopoo’ is a dance song aimed at the summer, with an intense brass track, an addictive hook and cool vocals.

Thanks to the impression of an addictive hook song, it feels like a song that can be enjoyed lightly and happily, but it is also a song that many trainees are drinking high notes because of the high-level performance mixed with aggressive waacking in the middle.

It was a really cheap song if you followed it clumsily.

I looked forward to it, feeling the nostalgia of my days at Flower Entertainment.

As if to repay that expectation, the winter snow shimmered and shone.

And the song started.

<Ufu! I fell into the sea of love!>

<It keeps getting sucked in, it keeps flowing in.>

<The only thing that comes to mind is that guy>

“… .”

2 minutes and 54 seconds passed quickly.

The song is over.

Winter performed the entire performance of ‘Apu’, which had such a difficult level of difficulty, and even sang the vocals that required 4 people to sing live.

At the end, he was panting because he couldn’t catch his breath, but considering the distribution of vocals, he had enough stamina to receive a passing grade.

I thought I was just stuck in a corner of my room, but I guess I was working hard on my physical strength.

However, after seeing that performance, my expression was mercilessly crumpled, as if I had chewed a whole sour lemon.

Winter looked at me like that and spoke out of breath.

“… Ha, ha, how do you feel?”

“How do you feel?”

I barely held back the swear words that almost came out reflexively.

The winter dance was a sight to behold.

No, not only the dancing but also the singing was spectacular.

My head felt dizzy and pounding due to the mental shock, but I made the most of my rational assessment.

“You’re looking down on idols.”

It was an objective and rational evaluation.

“What kind of guy taught you that way?”

It’s not that I can’t dance and sing in winter.

It was done maliciously.

For example, let’s say you have a friend who sings poorly at karaoke. You might think that he or she has never sung before or is not talented, so you just understand and end it.

There is no room for emotions.

But winter dances and songs were different.

In her dancing and singing, all the elements that were considered to be different were selected and expressed in an exaggerated manner.

It’s like a vicious vocal imitation that makes people laugh by imitating and exaggerating all the nasal sounds and sizing habits in arrogant ad-libs.

I can say without a doubt that if you are serious about singing, you will want to give it a beating.

It seemed like bad habits were collected one by one and put into action.

At this point, it was at the level of art.

It seeks to limit how much dog behavior can be included in the choreography of one movement.

“What are you provoking? Are you testing how long you can endure the dancing and singing? Do you want to fight me? I lost. “Please stay sane!”

“I just did my best… ”

Winter made that excuse and began to shed tears.

It wasn’t that he wanted to f*ck me, it was that he was really practicing sincerely.

It just seemed like a way to embody human malice… .

I felt sorry for saying harsh words to that stupid sunfish.

“I was harsh. sorry.”

Winter asked, glancing at me.

“Yeji told me that it would be a good idea to do it this way. … Is it strange?”

“No, Yeji, that crazy b*tch again.”

In my head, I imagined Yeji smiling like the joker after teaching Gyeoreum how to dance and sing the wrong way.

Spending the winter with your friends is a bonus.

If there is something beneficial to me, I will try to understand it.

But there is no such benefit.

How on earth could a person have such pure malice?

The devil was at a training center in Jeonnam.

“… What should I do?”

Tears were streaming from the corners of Winter’s eyes, as if they were about to flow at any moment.

It felt like if I hit it, it would burst into tears again.

I don’t know how I’ll survive my trainee life if my mentality is that weak.

The problem is getting passed before then.

This was not just a winter crisis.

It was also my crisis.

It doesn’t matter if you’re not good at dancing and singing.

Because talent is not something that can be masked by inexperience alone.

A producer of the caliber of Cheon Jong-hoon would automatically remove the veil of inexperience and face Winter’s talent.

But those bad habits were not a veil that could be lifted.

It was like a stapler core stuck in every nook and cranny of the paper.

It’s a talent and a talent, and if you don’t select it, you won’t even see it.

Of course, Chun Jong-Hoon will also not see Winter’s talent.

I’ll be lucky if he holds out for at least 10 seconds and doesn’t grab me by the collar.

Originally, I was planning on running up and down during the five days of winter practice.

There is no harm in stocking up on seed money for stocks.

I scrapped that plan.

Now was not the time to think about a little money.

“you… Really, consider yourself lucky. “I will make you human within 5 days.”

There are 5 days left until the meeting with Cheon Jong-Hoon.

It was a critical time for a monkey to become a human.

You have to get rid of those bad habits within that time.

***

And five days passed and the day of the interview with Cheon Jong-hun arrived.
