Between Us : The Month of September | Luqi

Discovery

SM and Capitol Record anticipated day finally has come. The launching will be done by Lee Soo Man himself at the 6Th Annual Capitol Congress half an hour before the dinner buffet opens. He will present it in front of the executives, investors and also the honor guests

Capitol Records first kpop signee, NCT 127, got the privilege to open and greet everyone in the room for the big reveal

While waiting for their cue from the stage manager, Jaehyun asked to Taeyong, "Have you seen what they are going to show?" while he walks closer and stood beside him

Taeyong who hasn't, answer Jaehyun question with an unenthusiasm tone, "Not yet", very aware that Jaehyun is one from those who did not fully agree with project

Jaehyun let out a salty brief thin smile and said, "Rumor stated that they put a big amount of money just for the teasers" he slides in his hands to the side pockets of his pants

Taeyong scans around their surroundings, "If you think me and Mark or even the others is happy with it, we're not—" making sure no one besides them and the NCT 127 members were close enough to eavesdrop the conversation, "You know damn well they never give us an option to refuse" he glance and stares intensely to Jaehyun, "If we work hard and trying to make this project a success, it's not for individual benefit, but for the sake of our groups"

Living with Taeyong for years, Jaehyun can tell and sense there's no lie within his voice and eyes. Taeyong is 100% completely being honest

Jaehyun even expected Taeyong to say such words, "I know—" he stares back into Taeyong eyes and smiles, "That's why I hate SM plan and ways about this project. It's leaving a bad taste in some of the members mouth"

Taeyong closes his eyes and let out a deep breath of relief, "Glad that's settle"

"With me but not with the others, yet" said Jaehyun wanting to put the assumptions to rest, "I think you as the leader of NCT, should find time to gather all of them and say what you just said to me"

Taeyong nods and agree with Jaehyun suggestion, "You're right. I should" he said finally ending their minutes of misunderstandment towards each other right before they go on stage, "So we're cool now?"

"Not quite" replied Jaehyun eyes pointing to Lee Soo Man whose right across them talking to Capitol Records CEO, "I'm still upset that my face and voice is not international worthy enough according to him and his team"

Taeyong chuckles patting Jaehyun shoulders and mentions some data facts and polling to arouse his self confidence, "It's very worthy back home" he said

Back in Korea. Baekhyun, Kai, Ten and Lucas have another schedule together to continue arranging the choreography for each of the album track

It's a task and job that SM trust for the members to come up with by themselves because they have two amazing dancers in the group, Ten and Kai

Before starting practice, a staff knocks on the dance studio to hand over his Ipad and when it's handed over, they can see the location where the big reveal takes place is already showing on the screen,

"It's going to begin any minute" said the staff excusing himself out

"Ready?" Baekhyun ask as he sees NCT 127 getting up on the stage

"I'm not—" Ten sounds a bit frustrated with one of the group slogans, "The Avengers of kpop? Come on guys? Am I the only one that's nervous what our fans and the marvel fans will think and react about it?"

"The name SuperM itself already a controversy" chuckles Kai, "I'm assuming they purposely planned it. Guessing it's one of those noise marketing strategies"
