Chapter 59
“Unnie, all the killing parts are… gone? Will that be okay? The rest are really… boring parts…”
Huh?
I doubted my own ears.
Isn’t it the opposite?
Isn’t Kim Ryeo-yu taking Yeon Juhong’s part, but rather giving her own part?
Why?
“I’m fine. I hope you stand out more this time, Juhong.”
Yeon Juhong seemed to be really not adapting, she looked flustered.
It was understandable.
I couldn’t adapt right away either.
“I’ve been very selfish so far. This time, I really want to give in to others sincerely.”
“…Uh…. If that’s the case… I’ll gratefully… accept!”
In the end, Yeon Juhong took Kim Ryeo-yu’s killing part and instead gave a more boring part.
It was a deal that only Kim Ryeo-yu lost thoroughly.
“But there’s a condition.”
“Yes?”
This is the main point.
Let’s hear it.
“Ah, can you ask for the part change… as if it was your request?! Why is that?”
If those parts are not confident, just pass it off as a favor.
She’s the one who can’t sing in the first place, she’s the one who broke the song.
She only sings well in her own vocal range, and if she strays a little from the vocal range, the live performance collapses.
But she wouldn’t want to have the image of not being able to sing.
To give Yeon Juhong an image of being a nuisance.
If it were me, I wouldn’t have accepted the proposal.
In the first place, it was suspicious that it was not in the practice room with a camera, but in the hallway.
There was no camera in the hallway.
Why would you make such a proposal in a place without a camera?
Isn’t it too suspicious even if it’s suspicious?
The intention was clearly visible.
But Yeon Juhong is not Baek Nokha, but Yeon Juhong.
She’ll take care of it.
“I don’t want to give the impression that I’m favoring you over the other girls. I don’t want to fuel the discord between Cheong and me.”
“…That seems right…. Okay. But we agreed well, right?”
“Sure! You asked cautiously, and I accepted it with joy.”
“That seems okay!”
…Is it okay?
I sighed deeply inside.
No matter how smart and ambitious Yeon Juhong is, it was based on being 17 years old.
After all, a kid is a kid.
I couldn’t let my guard down.
The moment I tried to intervene in their conversation-
“But can’t you also give good parts to other unnies?”
“…Why?”
“No, it’s a bit cheap if only I get it.”
“Juhong.”
“Yes?”
Kim Ryeo-yu spoke in a voice that suppressed her anger.
“The other girls are really high in rank and stable. You know that, right?”
“….”
For the first time, Yeon Juhong closed her mouth.
“You’re the only one in this team who’s ambiguously not a debut candidate. The other girls are strong candidates for debut. Why are you taking care of girls stronger than you? Because you’re like that-”
Kim Ryeo-yu paused for a moment and sighed.
“You’re still young and don’t know well. Just take the opportunity when it comes. Okay?”
“…But.”
“Then, don’t take my part. Just?”
“!”
Yeon Juhong really had a conflicted face.
It was understandable.
She was desperate for her debut.
How much would Kim Ryeo-yu’s words resonate?
She must have thought it was a word that poked at her situation.
I decided not to intervene.
…Even if I intervene here, my words will not reach Yeon Juhong.
Yeon Juhong just really wanted that part-
“No…. Let’s do that for now, then.”
Because she’s a 17-year-old trainee.
In the end, all I could do was….
Just pray that I could catch her when she was about to fall.
Of course, I should come up with some countermeasures on my own.
I fiddled with my cell phone.
This is also a cell phone, so all the functions are alive.

“You changed the part?”
Kim Geum frowned, and Ryu Bo-ra was indifferent. I didn’t say anything.
Kim Geum couldn’t accept that atmosphere.
Kim Geum asked me with her eyes.
‘Is it just me who thinks that’s weird?’
I also answered with my eyes.
‘No. I think it’s weird too. But what can we do?’
But soon Kim Geum also accepted it.
Because there was no clear reason to oppose it.
“I asked for it! I wanted to sing a greedy song… so Ryeo-yu unnie said she would change it for me.”
Yeon Juhong also said this.
“Uh… Okay. Well. If the two of you agreed… we have nothing to say!”
Kim Geum reluctantly agreed in a squeamish voice.
“But, Yeon Juhong.”
“Yes.”
“Can you really sing all that? You’ve only brought all the difficult parts.”
“I can do it??!”
Yeon Juhong was furious, and Kim Geum just smiled ambiguously.
…It’s my turn to intervene.
“Let’s sing for now. All together.”
“Oki-oki.”
In the end, the five of us sat in our chairs.
I started playing the guitar.
The feeling of the pick brushing the strings felt good.
Yeah. I learned the guitar because of this feeling.
Let’s go, us
Without any worries or concerns
The lyrics are really, without worries.
This team was full of worries.
Kim Geum sang well when she sang alone, but she still couldn’t harmonize well with the other members.
Because her voice is so unique, it sounds like she’s singing alone even when everyone is singing.
Ryu Bo-ra couldn’t bring out the warm emotional line, she was still stiff.
She sang well with others, but when she sang alone, she looked nervous.
She was so focused on pitch and rhythm that she didn’t seem to have a soul.
Yeon Juhong’s pitch was unstable due to the difficult vocal range.
Kim Ryeo-yu was the best.
Originally, she didn’t stand out and only took easy parts.
The downside is that when everyone sings together, she sings so quietly that her voice doesn’t even come out.
…What should I do with this team?
How can I explain this nicely?
“Guys.”
“…Yes.”
“Are we going like this?”
I can’t think of a good way to explain it.
In the end, I decided to speak honestly.
“We can’t debut.”
“!”
“Everyone, practice like hell today.”
***
The next day.
In the end, we stayed up all night.
We had to practice not only ‘Let’s Go, Us’ but also ‘Do’ because of it.
As we tried to do it after a long time, everyone forgot the choreography a little bit.
Moreover, since Jo Hee-on was out, we needed to modify the formation and movement.
Even though only one person was out, a huge modification was made.
Since we were practicing two songs at the same time, it took a lot of time.
In the end, we had to stay up all night.
“…Did you stay up all night?”
6 AM.
We ran into Seo Baek-young’s team on our way home.
It was the first time we saw them since we practiced ‘Do’ yesterday morning.
But looking at the same clothes, it seems like they didn’t go home.
Looking at them, it seemed like they stayed up all night too.
…They’re having a hard time.
“What song are you doing?”
“‘Let’s Go, Us’. What about you, unnie?”
“I see what kind of feeling you’re going for. We’re doing ‘Ha’.”
….
It’s a very exciting summer idol song. It was a big hit about 5 years ago.
“I see what kind of feeling you’re going for too.”
“It’s obvious, isn’t it?”
“Can you do it?”
Seo Baek-young looked energetic.
No, only Seo Baek-young looked energetic.
Looking at the other five people who were on the verge of dying….
“…I tried. What about you guys?”
“Haha. I… tried too.”
You too?
Me too.
The two of us felt a sense of kinship and nodded our heads.
It seems like those kids over there didn’t do well either.
“Next time….”
“Let’s be a team.”
“Just the two of us.”
“Agreed.”
We reached a dramatic agreement and returned to the dormitory.
To sleep even an hour more.

Wow
What is it?????
Wow, it looks like a guerrilla performance
Awesome busking…?
ㅋㅋㅋLook at the real-time trending Menucol guerrilla, it went up to 11th place in the real-time trends
Don’t they have to tell us which Han River Park it is? Do I have to turn over from the source of the Han River?
└What’s the solution?
Fill the Han River
Lol, these color guys are doing something special today..? Today, let’s not call them color hair guys
The sudden notice from Menucol’s official SNS account made the fans noisy.
Menucol, the hottest right now, is coming out?
The outside is so noisy, isn’t it?
There were fans who liked it, but there were also fans who were worried.
★
No, but if there’s a guy who hurts our Yoon-bl, I’m really going to hit him with a cool stick
Ha, haters, just shut up for today #Haters_Be_Careful
Or, there was even a negative reaction.
Ahㅋ They’re trying to bury Yoon Cheong’s public opinion using our kids
ㅠRyeo-yu… If the Colors guys make it hard, shake the carrot a little
It’s a bit too much to ask the kids who are already having a hard time preparing for the final mission to do a guerrilla stage, isn’t it?
Are they trying to destroy the kids’ stamina?
However, all these reactions were buried by two pictures.

Two teams’ group selfies.
The faces of the trainees, who looked so happy and excited, eventually made the fans shut their mouths.
Everyone, be careful today^^
This shitty reality, we’re going to endure it with our kids
It doesn’t matter if they don’t tell us where it is, if it trends, we’ll go anywhere, we’ll rent a bike
No matter what, there’s no fan who can beat an idol.
The hearts of fans who like idols, in the end, were all the same.
That’s how the time for Menucol’s guerrilla stage approached.
