Superstar From Age 0-Chapter 420:

Ahn Da Ho and Blue Moon's manager drove Seo-jun home and Blue Moon to their dorm, then headed to Cocoa Entertainment.

The offices of the singer team 1 and the PR team were still brightly lit.

“How are they?”

At the team leader's question, the manager gave a bitter smile and opened his mouth.

“They seem to be very worried. They asked me if they could post something on the fan cafe.”

“Well. If they post something, most of the rumors will die down, but… unless they clearly reveal the actor's name, they won't completely let go of their suspicions.”

One of the reasons was Cocoa Entertainment's less than satisfactory response.

“If it was a regular actor, we would just post his name and be done with it…”

The team leader sighed heavily with his arms crossed.

Seo-jun's appearance was nothing less than the core of this single album.

They couldn't reveal it so vainly.

The team leader, who had been pondering with his mouth shut for a moment, opened his mouth.

“How much can we move it up?”

“Huh?”

Some of the staff members turned their heads. Ahn Da Ho and Blue Moon's manager also looked at the team leader.

“The schedule, I mean. Just do the music and the music video. No matter how much it costs, as fast as possible.”

At the team leader's words, the staff members of team 1 looked at the schedule board on one side of the office and discussed. Ahn Da Ho realized the team leader's intention. He immediately thought about how much this change of schedule would affect Seo-jun's schedule.

“The music is already recorded, so we can just upload it right away…”

“The music video will take at least five days to finish, even if we edit it and do CG work right after filming tomorrow.”

“So you’re saying we can release it as soon as the music video is done?”

The staff members nodded their heads nervously at the team leader's words.

“Except for the album.”

If they left out the physical products that went into the album, such as photocards and booklets, it was possible.

The team leader, who had asked for confirmation, said.

“Then let's release those two first next week.”

“…Just the music and the music video?”

The staff members asked with a puzzled expression.

Of course, it wasn't impossible.

There were digital albums that only released music.

The problem was the schedules that they had prepared for producing photocards, booklets, and albums.

They had already contracted with related companies for production.

The team leader noticed the staff's worries and continued.

“I mean, let's release them first. We’ll release the music and the music video next week and sell the album as scheduled.”

Anyway, it was the fans who bought the albums, so it wouldn't matter if the album sales were delayed a bit.

“What matters now is to ease the fans’ worries.” 𝚏ree𝚠𝚎𝐛nove𝚕.com

The staff members nodded in agreement at the team leader's words.

That's how Cocoa Entertainment decided to move up Blue Moon's comeback schedule instead of revealing that the actor with blue hair was Seo-jun.

Once the plan was set, team 1 moved quickly.

“Tell the CG team and editing team to finish it as soon as possible after filming tomorrow.”

“Yes!”

“Make sure you have the music ready to release as soon as the music video is done.”

At the team leader's words, the staff members who were looking at the whiteboard and discussing which schedules to move up paused for a moment at one word.

“Team leader. What about music shows?”

“Ah…”

There were still a few weeks left until their music show stages according to their original schedule.

If they released their music as soon as possible as planned by the team leader, there would be a big gap between their release date and their comeback stage.

The team leader frowned slightly and then said.

“We’ll have to talk to the broadcasters and see if we can move them up too.”

“If we have music show schedules, other schedules might be delayed too.”

The three major broadcasters’ music shows.

That alone filled up three days a week.

Unlike before their comeback when they had plenty of time to move around, their schedule would become tight.

“We’ll have to move around whenever we can.”

The team leader sighed lightly and said.

“Tell them that their schedule has changed too.”

“Yes.”

Blue Moon's manager nodded his head and went outside with his phone.

The team leader looked at Ahn Da Ho.

“Seo-jun doesn't have any problems with his schedule, right?”

“Yes. Seo-jun only has filming tomorrow. He’ll be fine.”

“Good. Seo-jun must be worried too… Tell him not to worry. Everyone will love it when they see the music video.”

Ahn Da Ho smiled brightly and nodded his head at the team leader's words.

“Let's not cry because of tomorrow's filming. If our faces swell up, tomorrow's filming will be ruined and the schedule will be delayed.”

“Yess.”

Choi Jae-won answered his manager hyung in the most normal voice possible and hung up the phone.

“Jae-won hyung… What's going on?”

Choi Jae-won looked at Park Ee-deun, who was sniffling, and the other members.

As soon as they arrived at the dorm, they checked the fan cafe and their eyes were watery.

They might have ruined tomorrow's filming in this state.

“Our comeback schedule has been moved up. They said they're going to release the music and the music video as soon as possible.”

“Oh… Then…”

“Yeah. It also means that they’ll reveal that the actor is Seo-jun soon.”

“Then the fans won't be worried anymore.”

The members sighed in relief at Jung Eun-sung's words. They thought that the fans would be worried for a few weeks until they came back, but they were glad.

“So we have to do well tomorrow. If we delay the filming, the release date of the music and the music video will be delayed too.”

“Wow. I think my eyes are swollen from crying!”

Park Ee-deun jumped up and headed to the fridge. Kim Si-hoon quickly followed him.

“Ice! Do we have any ice?”

“They say it's better to put a cold spoon on your eyes.”

Meanwhile, baek Yi-hyun searched on the internet and opened his mouth.

“Do we have any green tea? It's good for reducing facial swelling.”

“We don't have green tea, but we have packs.”

The members’ faces brightened when Jung Eun-sung took out five mask packs.

They quickly washed their faces and came out with white mask packs on their faces.

Blue Moon, who lay side by side on the living room floor and sofa, talked with a little relieved mind.

“I hope they release the music video soon!”

“Me too. Everyone will be so surprised.”

“Let's work hard tomorrow and finish it quickly!”

“Jae-won hyung. Then are our music shows also moved up?”

The members’ eyes rolled around at Jung Eun-sung's question, and they looked at Choi Jae-won, who had received a phone call from his manager hyung.

“Yeah. They said so. As soon as the music and the music video are released, we’ll go on air as soon as possible.”

Choi Jae-won's words made Blue Moon blink their eyes.

“But is it okay to change our schedule so suddenly?”

“No. How can you change the schedule so suddenly?”

He had thought they had nothing to do with him until yesterday, but things turned out this way.

The PD of KBC Music Show, Music Bank, grumbled. The assistant director who walked beside him nodded in agreement.

“That's right. Cocoa Entertainment must be in a hurry because of yesterday's incident.”

The incident involving Blue Moon that started yesterday at lunchtime was still making a fuss.

Even people who were not interested in idols paid attention to the topic related to the idol group that sang the song they often heard in cafes or streets last year.

Since Cocoa Entertainment did not reveal the name of the actor, there was even a rumor that he was ‘the actor who cannot be named’, taken from a movie.

‘I wonder if this is worth all the fuss…

It was also because the entertainment industry was quiet without any scandals or accidents, but it seemed that other agencies that were wary of Cocoa Entertainment were fanning the flames to make the incident bigger.

The PD, who remembered the words of the drama and variety departments to speak nicely, sighed lightly and opened the door of the meeting room.

The team leader of Cocoa Entertainment's 1st team greeted the PD and the assistant director. The three exchanged brief greetings and started to discuss.

The discussion went smoothly.

It was common for famous singers to take away the spots of rookie singers on music shows, but Cocoa Entertainment did not do that.

Without dropping any team, cocoa Entertainment agreed to reduce Blue Moon's stage time by half for their comeback next week, and Music Bank decided to extend the broadcast time a little bit.

The team leader, who obediently nodded his head, made the PD wonder if something was wrong, but he soon shrugged his shoulders and opened his mouth.

“The schedule for the week after next is not confirmed yet, so we should be able to adjust it without any problem.”

“Yes. I understand.”

The team leader nodded his head at the PD’s words and opened his mouth after thinking for a moment.

“But won't there be a problem if the issue continues?”

If the situation got worse, blue Moon might not be able to appear on next week's music show. That would be a big problem for Cocoa Entertainment as well, but the team leader looked relaxed since he first saw him.

“Oh, we are planning to release a teaser on Thursday, two days before Music Bank's broadcast, and release the music video on Friday. Then everything will be fine.”

Hahaha, everything will be fine, he said with a relaxed attitude. The PD asked him with a nervous face.

“Can I know who the actor is? It will be a big trouble for us if something goes wrong.”

He had to find a way to fill up the time if Blue Moon dropped out after he extended the time slot.

“Yes. Of course.”

The team leader nodded his head at the PD’s words and opened his mouth.

“Actor Lee Seo-jun will appear.”

“…!”

At the team leader's words, the assistant director who was organizing the schedule papers dropped them unknowingly and the PD dropped his pen in his hand.

The PD and the assistant director knew very well why Blue Moon and the actor looked close, why Cocoa Entertainment did not reveal it clearly, and how ridiculous it was for people to guess that the actor would become an idol just by hearing his name.

“So we are frustrated too. It's too precious to reveal it so easily.”

“…I understand.”

He understood very well.

Unlike the assistant director who was still frozen, the PD’s mind was working fast.

He looked like he was thinking about something as he looked around in mid-air.

His gaze moved to the team leader who was getting ready to leave the meeting room with a relaxed look.

Now he understood why he was so relaxed. He would have done the same if he were him.

“Excuse me, team leader.”

“Yes?”

The PD clasped his sweaty hands neatly and opened his mouth. He looked a bit shaky.

“…Can Lee Seo-jun appear on stage?”

***

After finishing their morning shooting and having lunch, seo-jun and Blue Moon widened their eyes at Ahn Da Ho's words as they prepared for their next shooting.

“A stage performance? Me?”

“Yeah. The PD suggested it.”

“Wow.”

Blue Moon exclaimed as he looked at Seo-jun. Seo-jun blinked his eyes a few times and asked.

“Which music show?”

“They all offered it, but you can choose one.”

“Hmm.”

Seo-jun fell into thought.

Blue Moon watched Seo-jun with interest as he ate a cookie.

It might have been different if it was September, but it was still August and they had plenty of time.

‘The script work is going well too.’

It seemed fun to stand on stage once since he practiced hard.

Seo-jun made up his mind and nodded his head as he spoke.

“I only have to do the first week, right?”

“Yeah.”

“Then I’ll go to all three.”

“Woohoo!”

Blue Moon raised his hands and cheered at Seo-jun's answer.

Wednesday evening at 8:00.

The general public clicked on the 10-second teaser uploaded on YouTube with curiosity, and the Blue Moon fans with anxiety.

***

A soft melody flowed and light entered the black screen.

Between the light that passed from right to left of the screen, baek Yi-hyun's face with a serious expression was seen.

It was black and white.

Then, light passed from left to right of the screen. Park Ee-deun's face with a bright smile was seen.

It was also black and white.

This time, light passed diagonally from the bottom right corner to the top left corner of the screen, and Kim Si-hoon's face with a fierce smile was shown.

Next, light passed diagonally from the bottom left corner to the top right corner of the screen.

Jung Eun-sung's face with a blank expression was shown.

It was also black and white.

Finally, light passed from bottom to top of the screen.

Choi Jae-won's face with a gentle smile was shown.

The camera that showed Choi Jae-won's face moved back.

The figures of Blue Moon members in black suits were captured in one screen.

Baek Yi-hyun and Park Ee-deun, who were standing at the end, looked farther away, so it seemed that they were not standing side by side.

The camera slowly moved up.

Behind Blue Moon members, who seemed to be illuminated by a strong light in front of them, five shadows stretched out long.

Since Blue Moon members were standing in a semicircle, the shadows that stretched out met in one place.

And at the end of that one shadow, a person who was turned around was seen.

A black and white world.

Only his blue hair was visible.

He seemed to notice the camera that was filming him in mid-air and turned his head.

His hair that looked like water shimmered.

His white cheeks and sharp chin were visible and as his face was about to be revealed,

The screen turned black like night sky and blue letters flickered like flames.
