Raising a Neglected Singer-Songwriter Episode 134

134. Who is our next guest?

Seongjun sang three songs neatly and left the stage.

2nd album double title songs ‘Music is’ and ‘Ring a Ring’.

And the opening song of ‘I’m Alone’, ‘Life and Death’.

All three songs received enthusiastic applause.

The two songs from the second album are currently ranked 1st and 2nd on the Kiwi charts.

Even if it’s not your taste, it’s a song that every Korean has to listen to at least once.

Most of the people who attended Twilight’s concerts were young people, from their teens to their thirties. They are the generation that is most sensitive to trends.

Sungjun’s song, which is literally chewing up the year 2024, could not be left out of their playlist.

therefore,

“Music is!”

“You!”

“My heart looks at you!”

“Ring a Ring!”

It was natural that the chorus part would pop out.

Meanwhile, when singing ‘Life and Death’, Yoru added special harmony, and the two people’s voices matched well together, drawing favorable reviews from the audience.

The audience shouted for an encore, but Sungjun did not forget his duty as a guest and came down from the stage.

It was a clean exit.

After that, Twilight spent the remaining time kindling her last passion.

The first day of the concert in Korea ended successfully.

That night.

The community was abuzz with the news that Sungjun would appear as a guest.

– Crazy! Sungjun came out as a guest on Twall!!!

N Real? Was it real!!!!

Wow! I bought tickets to the Twilight concert tomorrow just in case!

N I won the lottery, congrats

– If there’s anyone who can’t make it to tomorrow’s concert due to some reason, please send me a private message ㅜㅠ I’ll buy the tickets for 10 times the price!!!

N 10x? You have to ask for 20x to sell itㅋㅋㅋ

n If it were me, I would cancel my schedule and go to the concert

Fans who expected that someone would put their concert tickets up for sale on the second-hand market to make a profit stayed up all night, refreshing the page endlessly.

I filled my wallet with bullets to attend the concert where Sungjun was a guest no matter how much it cost, but I never had a chance to use them.

In the end, the tickets never appeared on the second-hand market.

The next day.

『Twilight! First Korean concert a success! Who will be the surprise special guest? ‘Nahonbul’ colleague Sungjun!』

『Twilight’s performance that lasted 3 hours! Even more exciting with Sungjun’s support!』

『Japanese visual twin band Twilight, “I fell in love with Korean fan performance culture! I want to come to Korea again next time!”』

After the two-day concert on Saturday and Sunday, related articles poured out.

No matter how rich and high-quality the concert was, it is unusual for an article about a foreign singer’s successful concert in Korea to be covered to this extent.

Special guest Sung Jun’s presence played a big part in this spotlight.

Meanwhile, another Yama Knight was taking up half of the entertainment section along with him.

『Sungjun’s charming interview, ‘Star☆Friends’! Twilight appears as the first guest!』

『’Star☆Friends’ is a huge hit from the first episode!!! Views skyrocket!!! 』

『You can meet Sungjun’s star acquaintances?! Come to ‘Star Friend’!』

That’s right, it was an article about Sungjun’s self-proclaimed ‘Strange Friends’, which recently presented its first content.

The public relations team didn’t even bother to ask for a related article.

However, the fact that Sungjun is a star who receives a lot of attention played a role in making it a hot topic, but there was also the help of a reporter who was the first to report on ‘Star Friend’.

The identity of the reporter who quickly picked up the pen.

Before Sungjun was Sungjun, he was an ardent follower of his since D.Voice, a scoop hunter in the entertainment department, and a gagman named Lee Junmin.

His article included a detailed timeline of how Sungjun revealed his ‘Star Friend’ in an interview format through his official YouTube channel and how he developed a friendship with the first guest, Twilight.

Fans, including ‘My Star’, applauded the article that was full of selfish sentiments, such as ‘Sungjun’s skillful hosting skills stand out. We can look forward to his future activities as an MC’, while some pointed out that it was a biased article.

one side,

‘It will be fun to look forward to seeing which stars we will be able to meet in the future through ‘Star Friend’.

Maybe I’ll meet George Brown?’

The article’s conclusion, which mentioned America’s top producers, really piqued fans’ expectations.

And they started listing the connections Sungjun had built up so far = future guests.

– First of all, MXM Entertainment family members Yuna and MonZ will of course be there. If things go well, BLIZ might be there too.

n Among the judges and contestants of ‘Who’s the King’, it would probably be Ryu Young-seok, Han-ra, Yong-go, and Zeke.

n ‘Begin One More’: Hyo-ryun, Hong Kwang-woo, Haram

n ‘Favorite Girls’: Likee, Hailey, Jexi

n Japan: Sotozaka, Twilight

n USA: The final boss George Brown!!

– Are there any people I missed?

n There is also a preliminaries and a subtle girl.

n Changhyuk is there tooㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Oh, and SHYine is there too!!!

Yeah, that’s right, I almost forgot about Durahan

n When I organized it and looked at it, it’s crazy. Isn’t it a golden network? Is it a new network?

N So who is the guest for episode 2!!! There isn’t even a trailer!!!!

In this way, Lee Jun-min’s article sparked people’s interest in ‘Star Friend’.

Other media outlets were late to jump into the rapidly emerging issue.

It was funny to see him beating the drum after Lee Jun-min had already sucked up all the views, but if I didn’t write the article on my own, I would have lost the remaining views as well.

That’s why the entertainment section is filled with ‘star friends’.

It goes without saying that the number of views for the first episode of ‘Star Friend’, which was promoted through these voluntary media outlets, has skyrocketed.

Thanks to this, ‘Star Friend’ spread to more and more people.

Eventually, it spread to a cosmetics company in Sangam.

“Senior Seongjun, have you seen the new store that Jakon started, Manager?”

12:30 PM on Wednesday.

After the first lunch of a new week of hell.

Jo Ah-young, an employee of the general affairs team of ‘Saehyang Cosmetics’, who was taking a walk to help with digestion, is talking with her beautiful walking partner next to her about the recently popular ‘star friend’.

“Senior Seongjun speaks really well and in a fun way.”

“Because you were originally quite witty, Seongjun.”

“Was it so?”

Jo Ah-young tilts her head as she recalls Seong-jun from her memories.

“Anyway, it was amazing that the guest was Twilight! She’s really popular on TokTok these days!”

Jo Ah-young, a model of the MZ generation.

For her, who is more familiar with TokTok than YouTube, Twilight, which is gaining popularity as a representative of ‘Japanese TokTok songs’, was very familiar.

It’s great to see a band like that appear on Sungjun’s YouTube channel.

“Actually, I only knew the song Twilight, and this was my first time seeing her in person, so I was a little surprised. This Japanese singer named Yoru is really small and pretty. I wonder if men like such petite women.”

Although she looks young due to her short stature and young face, she is actually twenty-seven years old.

She is two years older than Jo Ah-young, who is half-five years old.

Then Jo Ah-young, who had been telling her older sister to be cute, continued speaking.

“I don’t know about senior Sungjun, but one thing is certain, this girl named Yoru definitely seems to have feelings for senior Sungjun. Isn’t that right, Manager Seol? Look at her expression in this picture! I’m telling you, it’s 100 percent!”

“Hmm···.”

The beautiful walking mates, Deputy Manager Seol and Seol Hye-yoon, whisper quietly to Jo Ah-young, who is holding up her phone with Sung-jun’s Instagram on it.

Seol Hye-yoon felt the same way, but hearing it from Jo Ah-yoon’s excited mouth made her feel even stronger.

“well.”

Seol Hye-yoon, who pretended not to care, glances at Sung-jun’s Instagram that Jo Ah-young had uploaded.

A selfie taken by Sungjun and the Twilight siblings.

These are photos that I have already seen.

Sungjun and I wore matching hanbok (of course we all wore them together), went on a date at Gyeongbokgung Palace (even though it was for a photoshoot), went to a pretty cafe and ate carrot cake and raw beef······.

“Ugh. What, what is it? A cold wind suddenly blows. Did you feel it too, sir?”

At that moment, Jo Ah-young shivered and asked in a cold voice without knowing what was going on, and only then did Seol Hye-yoon come to her senses and her snow woman mode disappear.

‘Anyway, I’m jealous.’

Before Sungjun debuted, we could at least have dinner together or drink coffee together.

However, since they became stars right after their debut, they can no longer even think about meeting each other for fear of causing a scandal.

I couldn’t even make a suggestion for fear of harming Sungjun.

The most recent time we met was when I visited Sungjun’s housewarming party and met him at the recording studio…

The only way to console my regret was through text messages or the occasional phone call.

‘Should I contact you today?’

As luck would have it, a good excuse called ‘star friend’ was created.

It would be natural to contact them.

So after work,

– I watched ‘Star Friend’. It was well-organized and fun.

I sent a message to Sungjun, pretending to be calm.

Of course, I thought it would take some time to reply since you would be busy with your schedule until the evening, but I got a reply right away.

– I’m glad you enjoyed it. It was a bit messy during filming because it was my first time.

– Wasn’t it messy because the fans were all over the place? I saw you moving around like a piper, leading the crowd.

– Oh, so that’s what it was?

-What are you doing now?

– I finished my schedule and came back to the studio. I’m enjoying the massage chair for a while. (Photo)

Seongjun sends a picture of himself lying on a massage chair and giving a thumbs up.

Seol Hye-yoon is smiling cutely with a full-blown blindfold on her head.

– It looks like you’re about to take a deep breath rather than taking a short break.

– This is my little pleasure these days. Sleeping for an hour in a massage chair with an eye mask on.

– Don’t do that. When you’re tired, go home and get some rest.

– Now, my studio feels like home.

– Then, you might get sick. Take care of your condition.

– Go ahead.

The squirrel emoticon saluting Seol Hye-yoon’s concerns returns.

– So who’s the next guest on ‘Star Friend’? Is it really George Brown?

Then she asked jokingly:

Brrrrrr-

A phone call came over the screen of the phone I was sending a message to.

It’s Seongjun.

“uh?”

Surprise was surprise, and my fingers quickly pressed the call button.

The voice heard as the call connected.

– I was going to contact you anyway, so this is a good opportunity.

“Huh? About what? Could it be ‘Star Friend’?”

Seol Hye-yoon’s heart races at the thought of hearing Sung-jun’s voice for the first time in a while, but she’s puzzled as to why he called.

– Yes. I don’t know if you saw it, but there were a lot of requests in the comments to invite ‘SHYine’ as the next guest.

By the way, do you have any plans to appear? I know it would be burdensome, but I just wanted to ask-

“I will do it!!!”

Before Sungjun could even finish speaking, Seol Hye-yoon hurriedly answered.

– Are you sure you’re okay?

“Okay. I’ll do it. I just need to contact the MCN business department and coordinate the schedule, right?”

Seol Hye-yoon nails it once again to Seong-jun who asks cautiously.

He seems to be taking the lead in even coordinating schedules.

Of course, it is also an opportunity for him to enjoy an official date under the pretext of ‘filming a broadcast’.

A golden opportunity you absolutely cannot miss.

It is forbidden to show a lukewarm attitude.

– Then I’ll contact you again soon, Hye-yoon.

“Yes. Seongjun, you can enjoy the massage chair too.”

Seol Hye-yoon hung up the phone.

She was lost in thought for a moment, but then she clenched her fists.

Seol Hye-yoon fights for time with Sung-jun!
