For the next three days, the "Unlimited" group continuously shot the scenes, daily for 18 hours, learning the steps from the harsh ch.o.r.eographer, making the expressions and giving the stills as To Hoon wanted. For nearly three days, Jun and the others slept for only 4 hours per day. Because of such a tight schedule, they didn"t even get to sleep in their apartments.For three days, including the staff, Jun and the others just slept on futons in the studio. The only good thing that happened to Jun is that the studio has showers to fresh up and they were provided nice food by the staff. Despite the constant scolding of the director to get a perfect shot and a countless number of takes, they were able to hold out for 2 days. But on the third day of shooting, a major problem arrived.
Just like Sujin worried, Minho, who was weak both physically and mentally, wasn"t able to hold it out and hospitalized with an IV drip after 3 days.
So, the shooting got delayed. After Chairman heard about it, he replied on the phone, "at least, you completed the majority of the song, right? Then, it"s fine. For now, give them a break. We already have enough material for the teaser."
As they can"t do anything about it, the director listened to the Chairman"s suggestion and paused the shooting and told them to take a rest for the day. After stepping inside the crew Van to go back to their apartment, everyone, including collapsed on their seats. The intern shook his head in pity, "Kpop industry is sure filled with hardships," and drove them to their place.
After reaching the apartment, Jun woke everyone up. Minho complained, "Hyung, I can"t. Help me out," and Dohyun also complained at the same time, "me too. I didn"t have any f****** energy to move." Minsu slapped his back lightly and tried to encourage him, "You only have to walk a few steps to reach the elevator. C"mon Dohyun, you can do it."
Leaving with no other choice, Jun turned his head towards the intern and asked, "Can you help us to the elevator?" As he nodded, the intern and HaeSeong helped out Dohyun while Jun carried Minho on his back.
At 20:25 hours on the 16th of August, Echo Entertainment, the number of reporters and the public surely increased but it fell off YeongCheol"s expectations. Still, he felt that it will be changed after 5 minutes because he was very satisfied with it. Then, after talking for five minutes, he pressed the b.u.t.ton and released the second teaser on the screens of Echo Entertainment.
First, a usual visual of Echo Entertainment with its logo appeared as a part of the norm. After the name of their company disappeared, everyone saw Jun, sitting before a piano and did the action of playing it for 5 seconds as the music started slowly. Then, the music changed to fast beat as the video showed the five of them are laughing and spray water over each other through water pipes. Then, the scene changed as a song started with a beat as all of them doing a dance, with Jun as the center for a few seconds and then some poses of each one
"Make me feel so high (English), I"m going crazy" - Minsu
"I can"t stop myself" - Dohyun
"You make me feel so high, I"m so crazy~ (English)
in the moment you looked at me" - Sungjun
Then, the music followed while they showed all of them in color full clothes having fun. In some straight narrow corridor between the two walls, Minho was sitting in the cart and screaming while the rest of the four is pushing it with a big laugh on their faces.
Then, as the scene once again changed to everyone putting on their big goggles and showing them one by one and finished it with,
"I"m feeling so Energetic." - Sungjun
And after that, a deep machine voice said, "Energetic" followed by the appearance of the word.
As the 50-second teaser completed, the reporters and the public gasped in a surprise for a second before the Chairman YeongCheol was bombarded by questions. After the Chairman answered them patiently, he began to speak about the alb.u.m, "So the alb.u.m name is "One plus One." It has five songs in total, if we add intro, too. As for now, all the songs were recorded and the shooting is almost completed. We expect everything would be completed within a couple of weeks and then we proceed with promotions and pre-interviews. The date of their debut is the 9th of September. The rest of the details will be posted on our official website. Keep following and support them. Thank you."
Just within half an hour, the leaks, which are recorded by the public directly, posted on various SNS. As the time neared, thousands of netizens were waiting for the official teaser.
At 21:00 hours, as the first teaser of the alb.u.m was released, Jun saw hundreds of comments like, "awesome." "can"t wait for their debut." "who sang which part here?" "It must be Sungjun, right? It says he"s the main vocalist." "Minho is so cute" "can"t wait for Sungjun Oppa"s teaser." "I"m already a fan of them." "Where is the idiot that said they will be mediocre" "Sungjun Oppa"s very handsome" "Can"t wait to see the full video" "Wait, who is Sungjun, here? Can anyone help me out?" "Watch the first intro teaser or check their official website and click on Unlimited in Kpop groups section."
Although, there are still comments like, "ugh, who are these newbies?" "Wasted a good song on them" "the leader Sungjun was shown the most, bias from the company?" "His eyes are just lenses right?" "they are debuting them in a hurry because of Galaxy, isn"t it?"
But, Jun and the rest didn"t care as they were happy that the views of the teaser have reached ten thousand in an hour on YouTube."
Meanwhile, in Seoul, Nayoung commented, "Yungja, your brother strikes it gold. Just from this teaser alone, I can see the song will be a hit for sure." Yunseo then pointed at Sungjun, "it will be hard for your brother to get a girlfriend with that kind of face." Yunji blinked and looked at her in confusion, "what do you mean? Isn"t he handsome?"
Nayoung laughed, "she means, not any beautiful girl would dare to accept such a face, as her boyfriend. Didn"t understand? When you grow up, you will too. Don"t worry, Yungja, I will make the sacrifice." Yungja put the tab away and said, "unnie, can you stop teasing me around. And no thanks, you are too much for my brother, anyway. Go and look for someone else, Hmpf." Nayoung just laughed and hugged Yungja as she pouted, "so cute."
At the same time, at one of the apartments in Haseo Street, eight kpop idols of Galaxy group are looking at the teaser. One grumbled, "That song was supposed to be ours." Another one spoke, "What a t.i.t for tat. We took their apartment and they took our song in return."
