Four weeks later.
“Good job today, everyone!”
“Thanks for your hard work!”
This week’s music show appearance was wrapping up the rookie group Rookies’ debut album activities.
After finishing our morning studio recording, we collapsed like rag dolls in the waiting room.
But despite our exhausted bodies, our hearts were full.
In the past month, Rookies’ Secret Girl had dominated the charts, leading to a dictatorship of first place on music shows.
Of course, there had been some issues along the way.
[In the third week of July, the top spot goes to…! Congratulations! It’s Python’s Poison Heart!]
Just a few days ago, on one of the music programs, Music Show Show, we had lost our first place to Python.
Honestly, it’s not easy for a newly debuted girl group to maintain first place across all music shows for several weeks in a row.
Our Rookies members had made peace with the idea that we wouldn’t claim first place anymore starting week three….
But losing to Python, a group we had been competing with all along, was indeed a shock.
Still…, it wasn’t like we lost our first place in every single show, plus we had achieved the remarkable record of being number one for three consecutive weeks on all shows….
The members’ faces were filled with satisfaction.
“It’s been really tough for the last month….”
“Right?”
“But I heard the company is going to give us a vacation after this activity.”
“Really? Who said that?”
“Director Jeong!”
So, having now become accustomed to the music shows, we spent the long waiting time napping and chatting to pass the time.
However….
“…Uh-oh, it’s almost 5 o’clock.”
“…Looks like it’s starting soon.”
When the broadcast time approached, my heart couldn’t help but race.
Rookies and Python were in the same debut album activity period.
This meant it was also Python’s last music show, just like ours.
During our activity period, we had, riding on Na Ah Ah’s explosive popularity, utterly crushed Python.
Yet just days ago, we lost our number one spot, and now the situation was neck and neck.
All of us, including me, wanted to finish this last music show with a victory.
So, we watched the broadcast with a slightly tense atmosphere.
Our spot in the lineup was just before the ending stage, which was Python’s.
“Seriously, they’re pulling every trick on us until the end. How unfair….”
“I heard the director of Music Boom Boom is a junior under Shin PD. Apparently, that guy really hates Shin PD, which is why we’re getting the short end of the stick.”
“Ugh…. We also really hated Shin PD….”
Our Rookies group had never had the ending stage on Music Boom Boom before.
