I'm Really A Kpop Idol

But that experience helped us working with Director To-Hoon in the set. At first, we indeed met with problems as they were pressing with time and forced us to shoot for 18 hours a day with only four hours of sleep. We had to sleep, shower, and eat there in the studio. But after continuous three days of shooting, Minho collapsed because he wasn"t able to hold on and he had to take an IV.

And then from the next day, the director toned the work a little bit to like 12-13 hours of continuous shoot per day. For him, everything had to perfect as he envisioned in his mind. If we even made a little bit of mistake, Director To-Hoon started his usual insults followed by another take. Not to mention, completing the shoot of four music videos in three weeks is... yeah... it"s very hard. But still, we were able to complete it successfully within the time limit by 29th August, so that, the company can proceed with the promotions."

The reporter asked in a surprise, "so, from the recording to the shooting and promoting, everything has been in one month?" Jun nodded, "yeah." The reporter then didn"t ask why and sat down as he was informed that he can"t talk about the Galaxy in the press meet.

But it didn"t stop the other reporters to ask the Chairman why to which he replied, "well, our Company already prepared them for the debut. It"s just because of the pressure we"ve faced, we didn"t have any choice but to push their debut earlier than we intended." Then, the journalist, who was stopped before in the previous press-meet asked, "my question is for Han Sungjun. Is it true that you trained in ZC for three years?"

Jun nodded, "yes, it"s true." The journalist then asked, "then is it also true that you left the agency five years ago despite the fact that you are selected to debut?" Jun replied, "I didn"t leave ZC." Without waiting for Jun to complete his statement, the journalist asked, "so, were you kicked out?" Jun replied, "no, I wasn"t kicked out either but in a way, yes, since my contract has been terminated by the Chairman as I met an accident and landed in the hospital."

The journalist asked, "can you tell us about the accident, and what did you do in those four years before you got selected as a trainee at Echo?" Jun replied, "I spent in the hospital all those four years. It was actually a well-known incident in the daily news section." Then, a new reporter stood up and said, "yeah, you are the miracle patient, who woke up without any issues after staying in the persistent vegetative state for four years, right?"

Immediately, the idols and a few other reporters, who didn"t know of such thing looked at Jun in a surprise as he nodded, "yeah, after the accident, I woke up like 15-16 months ago. The news came up in the media as well as in the newspapers back then but it was quickly forgotten eventually though.

And it is a false statement that I woke with up with no issues. I was woken up with broken memories. But since my physical body was in optimal condition, I was discharged and was advised to go and spend my time at home. It took me a while for me to get back to normal and I should say I was quite lucky at that since according to medical science, only 5% of patients will be able to recover all of their memories. And I verified with doctors and have tested too, so, no worries over there."

If Yungja or his mother would have seen it, they would have immediately realized it was just a lie as according to them, Jun was completely fine, the moment he woke up and his broken memories aren"t that broken as he was exaggerating. It was just missing fragment pieces here and there and Jun still didn"t recover them as he was stating.

Then, the journalist stood up and asked, "why did you auditioned for Echo and trained here? We heard that you were personally scouted by the chairman of ZC and were also selected as the original member of Resonance. Why to hard work here when you can easily debut from there if you can show them that your skills are still top-notch? Are you embarra.s.sed to face them?"

While the Chairman YeongCheol frowned at his bold question, Jun replied with a smile, "well, I didn"t think much about it. I just thought that I wanted to have a new start. And I"m glad that I did it since I have some amazing talented brothers with me and a supportive Chairman and higher-ups. I"m sure with their support, Unlimited will able to grow and become popular."

As the rest of the idols smiled, one of the reporters asked, "let"s come to the fun part. Tell us your idols. Are there any singers/idols that you all admire or have a crush on? And is there any Idol group that you like?" Jun replied, "hmm, well, I don"t have any specific ones that I admire but yeah, I"m a fan of AOE."

Then the reporter asked, "what about the others?" Minsu then replied, "I"m a fan of Soul, especially Sunwoo-sunbae." Then, after the others tell their crushes and their favorites, they each sang a part from one of the songs and concluded it.

Then, the Chairman talked with the reporters to edit out some parts like Minho was collapsed and hospitalized with IV, the harshness of the training, and the fact about the shoot was done in 3 weeks, etc... and later scolded them a little bit and warned them not to open their mouths on their own without permission, next time.

While Dohyun cursed the Chairman in this mind, Minho complained in his heart, "what a bias, indeed. Sungjun-Hyung also ran off his mouth without permission and yet, you haven"t said anything about it specifically like how you scolded me and Dohyun."

After that, they have returned to the dressing room and changed back to their clothes and went to their exclusive training room to practice Vocals and dance lightly before going back to their dorm.

On the evening of the same day, the second song, "Burn it up" released to cause waves in Korea.
