Superstar From Age 0-Chapter 426:

Friday evening, MBS conference room.

The production team of Music Center, a music show that would air tomorrow, gathered in one place.

They all quietly watched the stage of Blue Moon on the screen.

It was a performance that amazed them every time they saw it.

“The problem is that our show has a low priority.”

The screen went dark and the PD opened his mouth with a serious expression.

“People will watch KBC for the first stage, and SBC for the last stage… We are in a situation where people can watch us or not in between.”

“But what if people who saw them today or people who are curious about their reactions watch us?”

“Well, they might not watch us even if they saw them today.”

The PD demanded a more novel idea for the ratings.

He wanted at least a similar rating to KBC.

The production team started to rack their brains.

“What if we add the audience's reactions?”

One of the staff members suggested, wondering if it was not too rare for a music show.

The PD smiled sarcastically and opened his mouth.

“Are you an assassin from somewhere? KBC? SBC? You want to kill the ratings and us?”

“People who are immersed in the stage will be distracted if we insert the audience's reactions in between.”

The staff member's shoulders sagged at the rebuke of the PD and the main writer.

After that, various ideas came up, but the PD and the main writer shook their heads.

Then, a sub-writer raised his hand.

“What about fancams?”

“…Fancams?”

Fancams were videos that fans took of their stars’ stages.

Because of that, when they filmed from the audience seats, the stars looked tiny like matches, and when they filmed from the standing seats, the screen shook.

The main writer looked at him as if asking for more explanation.

The sub-writer continued.

“Yes. Showing the unedited stage as it is. And we can attach a camera to each member and show them more closely and longer, like actor Lee Seo-jun or other members.”

“But it would be hard to broadcast that…”

“We can upload it on YouTube.”

The PD stroked his chin.

Lee Seo-jun's appearance brought a lot of ads, but half of them were already contracted ads.

The expensive ads that were sold were because of Lee Seo-jun, so they would leave like low tide after this broadcast.

“Anyway, these ads are one-time things… YouTube will keep generating revenue, right?”

“We have to share the revenue with Cocoa Entertainment, though.”

It seemed better to have YouTube, which could be watched anytime and anywhere, than a show that had a fixed time and few reruns in terms of revenue.

“People will also flock to our channel… Okay. Let's go with fancams.”

Everyone smiled brightly as if they had shaken off their worries at his words. Then they sighed lightly at the PD’s next words.

“Then let's find out how to best use fancams.”

[MBS releases teaser for Lee Seo-jun×Blue Moon fancams!]

[Meet Blue Moon's fancam teaser on Music Center's YouTube channel!]

[Blue Moon's fancams will be released after today's Music Center broadcast!]

[How will it feel to watch fancams filmed by the broadcaster, not by fans?]

[Choose your favorite star to watch! Lee Seo-jun? Choi Jae-won? Kim Si-hoon? Baek Yi-hyun? Park Ee-deun? Jung Eun-sung?]

-Wow, fancams are an innovative idea!

=It must be because it's a broadcaster's camera that the quality is good and… The comfort of not shaking??

=AS bed.

=????

-I have to go watch it right now!

-Isn't 3 seconds too short??

=222 It will end in a blink of an eye

=333 Blue Moon's music video teaser was 10 seconds long!

=Now that I think about it, the stage outfits are similar to the ones in the music video teaser!

As expected by the Music Center production team, people's interest was drawn when they released the teaser for the fancams.

And two hours later.

Music Center started its live broadcast.

Lee Seo-jun and Blue Moon, who came out wearing black suits, showed off their cool performance. The fans who saw the teaser for the fancam were curious about the fancam video.

[MusCen/Fancam-Lee Seo-jun×Blue Moon//Lee Seo-jun(Close-up shot)]

-Wow. It follows Seo-jun from the beginning to the end??

=Is this where I lie down?

-Full shot and close-up shot! Music Center knows our hearts well.

=222 I thought it would only be full shot?

-I'm going to watch this once a day??

=Only once??

=…I’ll watch it whenever I have time?

=22 I saved it to watch it over and over?

=333 I paid for YouTube Premium because there was an ad in the middle??

-Look at this?? It's amazing??

[Overlaying Lee Seo-jun and Blue Moon members]

You all know that Lee Seo-jun is acting as Blue Moon members, right? Just by watching the music video or the stage.

But I was curious.

How far did Lee Seo-jun follow the members? (I'm not the only one, right??)

So I decided to overlay Lee Seo-jun and Blue Moon members’ images with the music video and the stage video. But the music video and the stage were too short to do anything because they were edited.

Then! MBS fancam appeared!

The full shot showed everything from head to toe, so I easily overlaid the two videos.

(A video of Lee Seo-jun in dark blue and Choi Jae-won in translucent white moving together)

The result?

There was a difference in height of silhouette, but if you consider that, it was exactly the same as if you copied and pasted. The timing of raising your hand, moving your fingers, and moving your lower body were all exactly the same;;;

Not only Choi Jae-won, but also other members were the same;;;(I’ll add more videos below)

I thought about it while making this, but it seemed amazing again.

It's not like he became a global star for nothing.

-It was amazing just to watch it, but it's even more amazing to see this analysis video.

-You can feel how much he studied and practiced for one music video.

=22 He must have practiced that much for other movies too.

=333 That's why he succeeded because he put so much effort into it.

-I watched all the videos and got goosebumps???

-Lee Seo-jun is not human.

=Didn't you know? Lee Seo-jun is CG. CG.

=22 He is a secret weapon made by the country for the cultural development of our country!

=Ah?? That's why I couldn't see him in real life??

=?? Are we all being fooled???

=When did technology develop so much????

[The last collaboration stage of Lee Seo-jun and Blue Moon!]

[To be broadcasted on SBC Popular Music this afternoon!]

“They already published an article before we even recorded it.”

Seo-jun wiped off the sweat that lightly flowed after the dress rehearsal and checked his phone while fixing his makeup.

The Blue Moon members, who had worked hard on the rehearsal as always, leaned on the sofa to conserve their energy.

“Hey, did you see the analysis video of the fancam that was uploaded yesterday? It was amazing.”

At the stylist's words, Kim Si-hoon and Park Ee-deun opened their eyes wide as if they were not tired at all and started to chatter.

“We saw it too! We thought we were doing the same thing during practice, but when we saw the analysis video, we could clearly see it.”

“Seo-jun, are you really a secret weapon made by our country?”

“Not only that, but maybe orange juice is your fuel?”

Everyone in the waiting room burst into laughter at Jung Eun-sung's words, including Seo-jun.

“I was a bit flustered by the cameras yesterday. But I'm glad they like my fancam.”

“I was worried for a moment. I didn't know which camera to look at.”

Starting from Choi Jae-won and Baek Yi-hyun's words, everyone talked about yesterday's recording.

It was a smooth shooting except for the cameras for the fancam.

“Please get ready for recording!”

At the words of the Popular Music staff, seo-jun and Blue Moon got up from their seats.

They did some light stretching and checked their costumes and makeup for the last time before heading to the stage.

The backstage was busy with recording preparations.

Among the busy staff, there were some people who looked relaxed and chatted with each other.

They looked like PDs from other programs.

When they met Seo-jun's eyes, they smiled brightly and Seo-jun smiled back.

Judging by their sparkling eyes, it seemed like they would offer him to appear on their shows again, just like yesterday.

Seo-jun turned his head and looked at the audience seats.

There were sprouts and Blue Moon fans that he had seen during rehearsal, sitting with sparkling eyes.

They were impressed by the rehearsal, but they also expected him to show a great performance in the actual recording.

Seeing their faces, seo-jun suddenly thought that he hoped his stage with Blue Moon would please their fans.

The Blue Moon members felt the same way. Choi Jae-won, who took a deep breath in and out, opened his mouth.

“We always do our best on stage, but today is our last stage with Seo-jun, so let's work harder.”

“Yes!”

Seo-jun and the members answered cheerfully to their leader's words.

“We’re starting to record!”

At the staff's words, seo-jun and Blue Moon went up on the stage.

Unlike Music Bank, which had a school uniform style, and Music Core, which had a black suit style, the costumes for this Popular Music were light and airy clothes that gave off a summer and sea vibe.

The background screen on the stage also matched the costumes, showing a scenery that looked like a night sea with a round moon.

Seo-jun and Blue Moon greeted the fans lightly and took their places.

Soon, music came out of the speakers.

The stage began with Choi Jae-won's singing.

[Orchestra Conductor's Connection-Low Rank- is activated.]

The numbers above Seo-jun and Blue Moon's heads flickered.

They also increased slightly, but Seo-jun, who was focused on the stage, did not notice.

[I]

[Receive your light!]

The Blue Moon members stretched out their right arms to point at the sky, then turned their bodies to point behind them.

There was ‘Blue Moon’ standing there.

At the moment when ‘Blue Moon’ was about to turn around and take his first step,

[All bonds have reached their maximum.]

[The rank of Orchestra Conductor's Connection increases.]

A notification sounded.

He almost stumbled on his foot.

But it was not his first time experiencing this, so Seo-jun quickly moved his steps calmly to the back of the stage.

Since only his back was visible from the audience seats, they could quickly grasp the situation.

[The rank of Orchestra Conductor's Connection increases from Low Rank to Mid-Low Rank.]

Meanwhile, the notification kept making noise as if it was doing its job, and the conductor's baton symbol engraved on Seo-jun's right hand flashed as if showing off its existence.

[Orchestra Conductor's Connection-Mid-Low Rank-]

The musical skills of those connected to the conductor vary up to 3 times depending on their bond with him.

The bond between the conductor and those connected to him and among those connected to him are expressed in numbers.

Maximum connection: 10 (5/10)

[Orchestra Conductor's Connection-Mid-Low Rank- is activated.]

Seo-jun sighed.

‘…I knew this would happen.’

He had a feeling in the back of his mind as he saw the bond above his head rising sharply after each stage.

It seemed to have accelerated because he was on the stage with Blue Moon, practiced with them, and even shared the dorm with them.

‘It might also be because we are in the same age group…’

On top of that, unlike baby Seo-jun who didn't even know the ‘?’ of music, seo-jun now had learned instruments like violin and piano and had a lot of experience.

Maybe all these factors had an effect.

‘Well, it's not a bad thing.’

He sorted out his thoughts in the blink of an eye and focused on the stage.

‘Blue Moon’ sat on the throne, and the atmosphere of the Blue Moon members who were standing in front of the stage changed a bit.

It was a strange feeling, but not a bad one. Rather, it felt like their senses were exploding like fireworks.

[The highest-!]

Choi Jae-won's powerful voice sounded, and the members’ dance became smoother and stronger.

It was not a very intense choreography since the focus was on the throne, but their calm movements captivated the audience's eyes.

They felt goosebumps, or were surprised.

[The brightest-!]

As if to match the stage, a strong aura that filled the audience seats and the back of the stage came out from the stage.

Feeling their improved skills and Seo-jun's aura, ‘Blue Moon’ sitting on the throne smiled gently.

[So you can see]

He felt like he saw some kind of illusion.

It was a tree spirit that received Seo-jun's light and shone brightly, holding up its ability like a trophy and laughing happily as if it was showing off to Seo-jun.
