The Birth of the Monstrous Singer-Songwriter - Chapter 234

The music show contestants thought that the first place candidates of this period were not successful. It was perfect.
This is because Jung Woo-dam, who is evaluated online as one of the national singers, is sweeping first place.
The candidates for first place also did not even have any hope that they might beat Jung Woo-dam and take first place.
The difference in scores ranged from at least 2 times to 10 times in some places.
The candidate for first place on today’s music show is a singer-songwriter with an acoustic guitar, just like Jung Woo-dam. He is also Asher Hong’s division. If he had one wish, he could only hope that the difference in scores would not increase to 10 times.
‘That’s a bit embarrassing.’
Of course, the same situation will occur even if the top 4 idols or representative girl groups and boy groups of the 4th generation armed with coolness make a comeback.
Since there is no Daejinwoon, you can’t complain that first place is determined by the fandom weight class that sells a lot of albums and has a high voter turnout.
Moreover, the terrestrial broadcasting station that planned Jung Woo-dam’s comeback show gave much higher scores to the song than to the album and voting.
However, even the sound source was controlled by Jung Woo-dam.
It was normal for my appetite to be sore from the feeling of defeat that I couldn’t shake off.
However, Jung Woo-dam may have been an unlucky person, but he had a great sense of inner intimacy with the singer-songwriter, so he was confident that he would sincerely congratulate him.
‘At last year’s Sombre Music Awards… … .’
The singer-songwriter was next in line after the Vandal Band shook up the concert hall. The unabated cheers made her reluctant to leave the backstage area.
At that time, Jung Woo-dam, who had just finished performing on stage, told me to consume more sugar and gave me a sugar cube and also gave me bottled water. That day was the first time we encountered each other during activities.
‘I never knew the day would come when I would eat sugar cubes like candy.’
It had been a long time since I had seen a sugar cube in the first place.
But is there really such a thing as a placebo?
The tension was completely relieved. Since then, the singer-songwriter has also been carrying her sugar cubes in her bag. Likewise, if you see a fellow singer who is nervous, give them one.
I had no idea that person would be Jung Woo-dam.
Today, Sunday, is Jung Woo-dam’s last pre-recording. That’s why I couldn’t see him even at rehearsal.
I only heard reviews from staff that it was like a concert hall, but for some reason, this person was leaning against the wall at the end of a deserted hallway, trembling with his legs.
‘Pressure for grades?’
And after today, the entry rankings will be revealed tomorrow.
‘The tealup did really well.’
I’m stuck in 3rd place and can’t move up, but I can’t fall either. In addition to high rankings, the key is retention.
That’s why articles about something being on the charts for several weeks in a row are constantly being produced.
He approached Jung Woo-dam, wondering if they were the same person, even though he had a good figure, even his physique looked like that of a model.
While holding out a sugar cube.
“Mr. Woodam, what’s going on?”
“Nothing happened.”
“yes? “You were shaking your leg as if you were worried about something.”
“I quit because nothing happened.”
In other words, I was shaking because I was bored.
He chuckled, saying, “This is how Jung Woodam should be,” and congratulated me in advance.
“I’ll applaud hard later. “After Woodam’s debut, the popularity of acoustic guitars has increased, auditions for singer-songwriters have increased, and some people are slowly debuting.”
“thank you. But it’s not because of me, it’s just the flow?”
“It’s true that Mr. Woodam is influenced. Senior Asher Hong also praises me without end. They say we are all benefiting thanks to Mr. Woodam. The band scene has also become very hot.”
Jung Woo-dam is a person who attracts attention.
Anything he does inevitably becomes a trend.
‘The vocalist of an American band called the last rock star comes to mind. Even though it was a legendary team that disbanded before I was even born.’
A band that was the last spark of rock and a catalyst for alternative rock.
In the UK, Brit Pop was developed in opposition to it.
‘Almost national power-level influence.’
He then offered another congratulation before returning to the waiting room.
“really. “Congratulations on exceeding 1 million copies for the first time, excluding idols and non-survivors.”
“thank you.”
Turning around, he was intoxicated with himself.
‘Maybe it’s pretty cool that I can congratulate someone sincerely?’
Then, Jung Woo-dam talks to me from behind.
I made a comeback and sprayed my nose with skunk spray, which doesn’t have a very long shelf life even if I keep it in the hot pink refrigerator.
It was decided to realize the plan in mind.
“Seniors.”
“yes?”
“I was going to go to the season 2 planning meeting and meet senior Asher Hong and ask him about it, but I didn’t know if it would be okay for me, as a junior, to make such a suggestion.”
“So you’re going to ask me first? “What is it?”
There is no time to know right now what on earth Jung Woo-dam wants to do with Asher Hong. Still, I’m interested.
Whatever Jung Woo-dam wants to do.
“I’m not receiving song requests these days.”
“Ah, wasn’t MNS intentionally limiting the number of orders?”
It’s true.
It dominated the domestic charts. In addition to the songs sung by Jung Woo-dam himself, there are also songs sold.
At the same time, the number of pseudo-composers armed with Jeong Woo-dampyo’s rhythm has also increased. MNS had long been concerned that listener fatigue would worsen, which was also the reason why CLEF debuted as a song from its internal composition team.
Jung Woo-dam, who has quick hands, made the decision to waste less time rather than limit the number of orders. However, he did not know when the mission to make musical instruments would be completed, so he could not afford to keep refusing until then.
Even though fellow singers have never had much conversation with each other, they still make inquiries as if they are the only person they can rely on.
There was no time to be idle in the waiting room during the music broadcast rally.
‘That’s why I ran away to the corner of the hallway.’
At the same time, he lowered his legs to watch the bears, who still showed no signs of waking up, through the tree cam.
Even after it started appearing on Billboard’s main chart, requests came in from overseas.
Fortunately, Jung Woo-dam has a strong session team.
Letting them play is also a waste of time.
I also became close friends with Asher Hong after he helped me avoid falling into the abyss due to unconscious sampling.
Jung Woo-dam asked him.
“Until now, whenever I wrote a song, I felt strongly about it, right? In the future, we plan to establish a composition team that will produce music tailored to the client.”
“omg? Really? You’re talking about division of work, right? What about our senior Asher Hong’s division? “We don’t write idol songs?”
“I receive many requests other than from idols. “What I felt when I went to PEGA was that sharing the sound source and dividing the parts made the work go very quickly.”
Even if the PEGA Entertainment composition team were faster, they couldn’t be faster than Jung Woo-dam.
However, if such an offer is received in Korea, or even abroad, no one will be able to refuse it.
“It must be quite large, right?”
“We are thinking of having the world’s largest songwriting team.”
“… … “If there are many boatmen, the boat may go to the mountains, but aren’t there some people who ride for free?”
“However, we will create an environment in which there will be no dissatisfaction or disappointment regarding the work or income.”
I can’t even refuse it.
It’s just a shame that he can’t make a decision on the spot because he’s not Asher Hong.
Of course, the answer was fixed.
My voice got louder.
“I’ll deliver it to our group chat room right away!”
An opportunity that may never come again.
There are no hungry musicians in the Asher Hong division, but how can a person be satisfied just by avoiding hunger?
‘Recognition of our music.’
In other words, the only way is to make a lot of money like Jung Woo-dam. Regardless of money greed, it means that more and more people are listening.
‘We can also be a priority client while being a member of the composition team.’
He hurriedly left his phone and ran to the waiting room.
Seeing that, Jung Woo-dam was relieved.
‘I always thought I had to do everything on my own, but in the end, I need people to do the work for me if I want to increase my time.’
Even if Jung Woo-dam’s role is reduced, it seems like one thing has been secured that will run smoothly.
The first of these was composing, which was his livelihood.
And the reason for making this plan.
‘Senior Lim Cheong-wol must have also been the owner of the wooden bag.’
I couldn’t know without knowing. The statue and the wooden bags piled high in inventory must have been a source of inspiration from Lim Cheongwol’s workshop.
It is clear that was the biggest mega hit of the 90s.
However, Lim Cheong-wol has no idea about the existence of bears.
Even if you’ve never been asked if you know the bears, since Woodam’s acting skills are at the S level, you can easily tell whether the other person is acting or not.
It seemed like there was nothing to hide.
‘If you fail the mission to make an instrument, everything will be erased from your memory.’
Even if you want to remember it, it will remain as a black memory, like a dark cloud.
That’s not the end.
‘Even the talents are gone.’
People think that Lim Cheong-wol quit his music career after earning his entire life’s worth with just one song, , but he continued to release albums even after that.
It’s just that everything is ruined and no one knows.
But in some twist of fate, Lim Cheong-wol decided to help Jeong Woo-dam develop a new instrument.
‘Sir, I will definitely succeed.’
Jung Woo-dam clenched his fists.
Marira succeeds in her mission to develop an instrument that will bring about great change in the history of music.
Then the manager runs in looking for Woodam.
“Are you here? It’s interview time. “Reporters are waiting at the lobby cafe.”
“I will go.”
“It’s not that direction, it’s this direction.”
Reporters came to me asking me to tell them how I felt about becoming a national singer.
No one could deny that Jung Woo-dam’s 3rd album was a masterpiece that was rarely released in the future.
The Indian-style melody title in the EMO pop punk genre is sweeping first place, but in the music rankings, the b-side songs and are taking turns rising to first place.
The number of fans and followers who sympathized with living positively, including the resource circulation campaign, was increasing exponentially.

It’s Monday.
It was a day when the Billboard charts were broken.

Jung Woo-dam’s 3rd album entered first place on the album chart and third place on the music chart. At this point, it was almost thought that Hot Shot’s debut was pointless.
However, it is very encouraging for a singer-songwriter who has not yet reached his one-year anniversary.
It can also be said to be the greatest of all time.
And today, I received countless handshakes and congratulations from fans regarding this.
It was the day of the fan signing event.
Woodam was armed with fansign items given by fans.
He wore an Arare hat and round horn-rimmed glasses.
“Udaming! “What did you eat?!”
“Kimchi Fried Rice.”
“also?”
Since his stamina is S grade, he won’t get tired no matter how many autographs you give him.
There were also fans who had been looking forward to this day.
To be exact, it was an industry colleague. It was Jamsil Beat, a composer who had been applying to fan signing events since his second album in order to build a relationship with Jung Woo-dam.
Since Jung Woo-dam is not in a group, there are no fans who will move to the next member and listen. Jamsil Beat lowered his voice so that only the staff could hear.
“Hello, Mr. Woodam.”
“Hello.”
“Do you remember someone asked me on a communication app before if I didn’t accept a second composer?”
“ah. sure. if?”
“That’s me. “This is Jamsil Beat, which gave UK Garage to Amus.”
This is an album that I thoroughly enjoyed.
So TKL Entertainment hired Jung Woo-dam as a producer.
While the staff was urging them to move quickly, Jamsil Beat asked seriously.
“I want to work as a composition team with Mr. Woodam.”
“hmm.”
Woodam was worried.
Since he brought me dozens of albums, I had to at least pretend to be worried.
Then he answered.
“fail.”
“Eh?”
It was Woodam whose effects from the skunk spray had not yet ended.
Moreover, on this day, Maxine Clay, the top pop star in name and reality, came to Korea to produce the 3rd and final single to be featured on Jung Woo-dam’s American album.
Thanks to this, the airport was paralyzed.
