Chapter 1: Melody's Surprise

Although it is said that he will make his debut at the end of the competition.

But that's just the way it is, it's impossible to make a debut at the end of the real game.

It takes time to prepare for the album.

The company spent a lot of money to produce a program like "Mix &Match", in order to allow BTOB to debut with the trend of variety shows.

It was able to gain huge attention as soon as it debuted.

Now that the effect has been achieved, all eyes are on BTOB.

It's the perfect time to make your debut.

The time and place are favorable, even if the album has not yet been produced, Cube will officially issue an announcement in advance.

BTOB's debut stage is scheduled for May 3rd, with the song show "M! Countdown" debuted.

The album will also be released at the same time as the day of its debut, which may affect the results of the hit show.

But there is no way, you have to make your debut before the heat drops.

In fact, as soon as the program ended, the three major TV stations sent invitations to the company.

all wanted BTOB's debut stage to appear on their own singing shows, but in the end, Hong Seung-sung decided to choose Ment TV.

After all, the cooperative relationship between the two sides is very harmonious, and many of the debut variety shows created by Cube for its artists are all created by Ment TV.

As a result, time suddenly became tight.

All the members of BTOB were engaged in the intense preparation process.

"WelcomeBack" is the title of BTOB's first mini album, which includes "Shake the World", "Different", "Loser", "Whatmakesyoubeautiful", "Waitforme" and the title song "Empty", a total of 6 songs.

All of them are original tracks created by Jung so-hoon himself, and of course, Fang Yong-guk and Nam You-hyun also participated in the production of lyrics and songs.

It's an album that's completely branded with BTOB.

In line with the company's positioning of BTOB at the beginning, the style of the songs is not limited to K-pop or hip-hop.

"WelcomeBack" includes a variety of songs, including hip-hop style "Shake the World", pop-style "Whatmakesyoubeautiful", and K-pop style "Loser"

Fortunately, the album's cover and promotional poster, as well as the small card in the album, were taken in advance, leaving a lot of time for the busy BTOB members.

However, what is surprising is what is unexpected.

Melodys don't seem to be happy with the current popularity of BTOB.

It's already so hot that it can't be hotter, but they are still not satisfied.

It was decided to add another fire with a series of actions.

Young people, always thinking about starting a BigNews.

Myeongdong, Cheongdam-dong, etc. are the most crowded places in Seoul every day.

It's a consumer's paradise and a favorite prime location for outdoor advertisers.

Today, May 1st.

Myeongdong, Cheongdam-dong at several intersections.

The advertising poster that had been hanging outside was gone.

In its place was a huge poster.

The base of the poster is fiery red, and it is printed with 6 young and handsome young men in various poses.

It also has the words 'WelcomeBack, BTOB! '.

The most conspicuous of these is naturally the person in the center of the poster.

Dressed in white short-sleeved shirts, a baseball cap and black-rimmed sunglasses, he folded his hands in front of his chest and looked ahead with contempt.

This is exactly the promotional poster of BTOB.

"What's that combo above?"

"BTOB, are you blind? Also, are you sure you're an earthling? You don't know that it's such a hot combination recently! ”

"Wow, so-hoon oppa is so handsome! There is also Rongguo oppa!! ”

"Are the recent rookie boy groups so powerful?"

Pedestrians only need to look up slightly to see these huge propaganda posters.

Not only that, but the buses that run through the streets of Seoul also have this promotional poster on them.

As the buses move through the streets.

Not all buses on all routes will have this poster on it.

All of them are more specific routes.

For example, this poster is displayed on buses that pass in front of the headquarters of major Korean economic companies, such as passing in front of the S&M Gate, passing in front of the Cube Gate, passing in front of the JYP Gate, and passing in front of the YG Gate.

It's like an announcement to the entire music industry.

"Is Cube crazy? It's so much to hold BTOB! ”

"I also think it's too fake, even if it was the original Dongtuan, the current BIGBANG didn't enjoy this kind of treatment from its own company, right?"

"BTOB is really so powerful? I'm going to have to find out."

Is this qiē all made by Cube?

The answer goes back to the night before the Mix & Match Grand Final.

When Kim Woo-jin called Jung so-hoon, she said that the melodys were ready to give BTOB a big gift when they debuted.

At that time, Zheng Xiuxun didn't care, and even forgot about it.

No matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't imagine that this 'great gift' was actually like this.

Obviously, this is not Jin Youzhen alone, although her family is wealthy, it has not come to this point.

There are so many advertising locations, and there is no shortage of prime locations such as Myeongdong and Cheongdam-dong.

It was just planned and organized by her.

Kim Woo-jin has enough prestige and seniority in Melody to be understood as the number one fan head.

It would be impossible for an ordinary Melody to organize such a large amount of support.

The worst mood at the moment is estimated to be EXO and Planetary Rice.

Let's not talk about planetary rice.

In the past 12 years, the two most active fan groups on the Internet are Planetary Rice and Melody.

One qiē is because in "Mix &Match", BTOB went to S&M's house to kick the gym and directly defeated EXO.

Since then, Planetary Rice has completely hated BTOB and has become mortal enemies with Melody.

Although there are brain-dead fans among the fans of each family, it is obvious that there are a lot of brain-dead fans among the fans of the S&M boy group.

You don't need any valid reason to attack someone, it just depends on your displeasure.

Zheng Xiuxun became the target of everyone, and was attacked by the planetary rice the most, so there was no way.

Who let his rap devalue the members of EXO?

EXO is a typical example of wiping the butt of fans.

In the competition with BTOB, failure is at most a depression and unhappiness, and it will not rise to this point.

But his own fans are so noisy, they can't ease the relationship with BTOB.

And it will only accumulate more and more as time passes.

There is no way for the two sides to shake hands and make peace.

Similarly, as a boy group that debuted in the same period, it is also the general trend, and it is inevitable that it will be compared by the media.

It is destined that the two combinations will have a lot of friction on the road in the future, and they can even be said to be lifelong enemies.

When all the BTOB members learned the news, they were recording for the album in the studio, and Song Hongpao came over to tell them about the crazy thing that the fans had done.

"It's hard to prevent...... What should we say? Fang Rongguo grinned.

This event was organized by all Melody, and melody from China, South Korea, and RI was the main body.

"It turns out that Youzhen said this is the big gift before, and it's really a big gift for us," Zheng Xiuxun muttered movingly.

"It's just that this will make us owe Melody even more" He sighed lightly, "3 years of waiting, we are only going to make our debut, it is such a big gift, obviously we haven't had time to do anything"

"This can also be regarded as a kind of urging us," Nam Woo-hyun chuckled, "With such fans, what reason do we have to stagnate?" What is the reason not to be successful? ”

"I think it's better than that, right?" Lee Chan-hee opened his mouth and said, "Now we collectively post a message of thanks on our personal INS? Then ask the red-robed brother to contact the company's personnel in charge of network management and send a notice of thanks? ”

"This can be had," Li Hongbin nodded with a smile.

"Yes, I can't imagine that Brother Zanxi occasionally impresses us," Lu Xingcai teased.

"Ah, stinky boy, how dare you talk to me like that! Isn't it itchy?"

"Brother, don't you seem to be weak in your heart like this?"

"Stinky boy, stop me, see if I can beat you! Dare to tease my brother like this, today I will let you know again how to treat your predecessors respectfully! ”

"Help, Brother Zanxi is annoyed and angry!"

Seeing the old and new busy people arguing, the members all clutched their stomachs and laughed.

Finally stopped, Zheng Xiuxun stopped the two from continuing to fight, "It's all decided, don't bother, hurry up and send a thank you message, I'll go and talk to Brother Hongpao"

"Hurry up and finish it, it's almost time to rest, and you have to speed up the recording, of course, if you want to work overtime at night to record, I don't mind"

For them now, time is a qiē.

Especially if I have to record a music video tomorrow, it will be a big challenge.

communicated well with Song Hongpao, and posted a word of thanks on INS with a selfie of himself.

On the way back to the practice room, he received a lot of text messages from his friends.

4minute, Beast, etc., indicate all kinds of envy...... (To be continued.) )
