From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show
Chapter 846: Concept? I Have No IdeaThe boys were currently in their studio, trying to come up with a concept for their new album. Although it hadn't been announced that they were going to have a comeback, the boys still wanted to discuss it.
They knew that a comeback needed a lot of preparations, so they wanted to prepare it as soon as possible just in time for their first-year anniversary. Moreover, they had some regrets in the last album, and they didn't want history to repeat itself.
"Well, we already did a beach concept," Jaeyong muttered. "However, I do want to get wet again."
They looked at their leader with wide eyes before collectively shaking their heads.
"I'm going to pretend that you didn't say that," Akira muttered.
"We need to think about the trends," Ren started off. "What's trendy these days?"
They all turned to their youngest member, Jisung, who was already deep in thought.
"Hmm, I guess-racing?" he asked. "A lot of people like F1 drivers these days, and rightfully so. They're so cool!"
"That's a good idea," Zeth exclaimed. "Then, we can wear tight fitting clothes and take them off under the burning sun."
Ren's face twisted into a grimace, already not liking the idea."Except," Sehun chimed. "OCTA has already done something like that. Remember their debut song?"
Zeth clicked his tongue. "Oh, right," he muttered. "I nearly forgot about it. It's been like, what? Around 400 chapters?"
"What?" Ren asked, frowning.
"What?" Zeth answered back.
They all shrugged and continued their discussion.
"Well, we can also go with the royalty concept. Everyone keeps telling us that we're the kings of K-Pop already," Casper boasted.
"We already did that concept with King of Kings, though," Jisung said. "And technically, our last title track is also royalty-inclined. It just wasn't done that well since it was filmed in a box-type studio."
They all turned to June, knowing he was the member with the greatest ideas.
June couldn't shake off the smile on his face. He saw Dan coming out of Mr. Lei's office a while ago, and it looked like hell had bent him over. June chuckled as he recalled Dan tripping on his own feet, too.
"June?" Casper called his name, causing him to snap back to reality.
June raised his eyebrows and looked at his members, who were all expectantly looking at him. "What?" June asked.
"Do you have a concept in mind for the new comeback?"
June pursed his lips. Right! They were going to talk about the concept of their comeback. The boys held their breaths in anticipation, waiting for June's genius idea to come through. Then, he shook his head.
"I don't," he said with a small smile.
The others sighed in disappointment.
Jay chuckled and patted their backs. "It's alright, guys," he said. "We still have some time. I went through some of Ren's songs, and I quite like them. We won't have a problem with the B-sides, so we have more time to plan the title track."
"You didn't show them to the production team, did you?" Ren anxiously asked.
Jay shook his head. "Of course not. Ted is still there. I doubt he'll accept them because his music taste is crap."
"Your songs good to my ears. Jangmoon also listened to it in passing and said they would be great additions to the album."
Ren sighed in relief. "That's good, then. I'm also happy that you guys like the song."
Jisung shyly raised his hand. "I'm also working on a song. I hope you guys can listen to it after I finish it."
The boys looked at their youngest member with wide and bright eyes.
"Little Ji!" Sehun excitedly exclaimed. "You've been working on a song?"
"Let's listen to it," Ren said.
Jisung scratched the back of his neck and shook his head.
"It's not done yet," he said. "It doesn't have lyrics, too. I'll give it to you guys when it's done."
They sighed in disappointment; however, Jisung reassured them that they were going to be the first ones to hear the song.
With that, the boys decided to order food to feed their tired minds.
"Ah, that was tough," Akira said. "Let's eat and think about it more later."
Jaeyong clicked his tongue. "You didn't even make a suggestion!" he teased.
Akira stuck out his tongue and laid on the ground.
They went on their phones as they waited for their food to arrive.
Casper, who still had the VPN installed on his phone, went to Weibo and saw that their performance video was still trending.
"Our '52' performance is still up there," he said, capturing their attention.
"What?" Jaeyong asked with a small frown. "But, it's been like what? More than a week since we had that schedule."
"True," Casper muttered. "I guess people like it because it's so peaceful. It's something that they don't see from boy groups that often."
"Peaceful, huh?" June muttered.
Just then, Akira brought up another topic.
"Look at this!" he exclaimed. "Joonie is gaining even more popularity after 'Everyday, Everynight.' So, he terminated his contract with his previous company and is in talks with a new one."
"Oh, that makes sense," Jisung chimed. "He was from a small company, and his popularity had skyrocketed so much. I bet he wants to sign a company with greater resources. I wonder where he's going to go to."
"I still don't like that guy," Casper muttered.
"Well, I don't really care about that," Akira said. "I'm just curious about the second season! I
heard they were going to have one next month."
"It did really well, so I bet they're capitalizing on its popularity," Jaeyong said.
"I want to go," Akira groaned. "Do you think they're recruiting?"
Jay lifted his head. "As a matter of fact, I think they are. I heard that Director Ramil was in
talks with the company a few days ago."
"Oh, June needs to go!" Jisung exclaimed. "He's perfect for the theme."
"I agree," Zeth said.
Ren raised one eyebrow in surprise. "You don't want to go?"
Zeth quickly shook his head. "No way. Did you see how they had to eat worms and raw leaves?
I respect it, but I can't do stuff like that. June's more suited for stuff like that."
"I'll try to find out for you, guys," Jay said, causing the boys to chatter excitedly.
Just then, June's phone rang, so he quickly retrieved his phone from his pocket.
When he saw the caller ID, he couldn't help but smile.
He stood from the floor and made his way to the door.
"I'll be back," June smiled. "The little devil is calling."
