Debut Or Die

Chapter 106

Bae Sejin's change of name received a moderate amount of attention and passed by safely.

It was because he only changed his surname, and since the new name was one of the nicknames people used to distinguish him from Keun Sejin, it didn't create a sense of incongruity.

=========================

[Testar's Bae Sejin really changed his name to Bae Sejin]

: His mother's last name is Baeㅋㅋㅋㅋ He said he changed his name in respect of his mother who raised him alone, but it's funny that his nickname becomes his real nameㅋㅋㅋ (article link)

=========================

– Hn is this real?ㅋㅋ

– Interestingㅋㅋㅋ

– An unimaginably good sonㄴㅇㄱ

– ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

– Well, there are also personal family matters, but there are two Lee Sejin on Testar, maybe he changed it because people got confused, they can't keep putting on the alphabet like thatㅋㅋ

-ㅋㅋㅋIt's nice that the fans won't get confused

However, the fans didn't blindly love it.

Bae Sejin was not a nickname that the fans used to call him, but rather it was a nickname that spread because that was how the viewers of <Idol Inc.> used to sarcastically call him an 'actor'.

As time passed, the negative nuances were mostly buried, but fans who still remembered its first origin couldn't help but feel strange.

However, after reading the full text of the article, there was a subtle atmosphere in which the fans would accept the change positively.

=========================

...According to his agency, T1 Stars Entertainment, Bae Sejin said, "I know that there is an existing nickname that overlaps with the name I am changing to now. It's a strange thing, and I want to take this as an opportunity as well. I hope the fans can approach this nickname with a new feeling."

=========================

This was because they could feel Bae Sejin's willingness to break through it head-on.

– Bae Sejin's name is like a gift from his mother, that's how it is from now on

– I never used that nickname in case Sejin gets hurt. But Sejin is saying I can use it...

– There are a lot of people who have a bad relationship with their fathers, but our Baese is a good son. A good son to his mother and a good son to his fansㅠㅠ thump thump

– Hmm, out of two, I don't want to change Little Sejin to that nickname, but looking from a professional point of view, I understand. It seems Sejin is a much stronger person than I thought.

Not just in Bae Sejin's personal fandom, but within Testar's fandom as well, they said 'It's nice that we won't get confused, it's cool and cute' and moved on.

There was not much objection because the general atmosphere was that 'Lee Sejins' were not referred to by their real name in order to distinguish them.

However, Keun Sejin's malicious fan accounts became noisy for a while.

– Ah, did he finally get his Lee Sejin's name back? I felt like s*hit when I had to search with his nickname every time I left out his real name

– I quickly caught on to the bastard's scheme. I was so pissed when I saw he gave himself a nickname to suit the actor's mindㅋㅋㅋ 'That person' changes his name and even takes care of his image. Wow, great^^
