Superstar From Age 0 - Chapter 739
Chapter 739
After leaving the paparazzi to the jellyfish, Seo-jun asked Jason Moore, who was sitting in the driver’s seat.
“Have you ever listened to K-POP, Jason?”
Jason Moore answered calmly.
“Yes. I’ve listened to Blue Moon, the show you were on, and the songs of Brown Black, the group you bragged about. I’ve also listened to the songs of the singers from your company at least once.”
Oh.
Seo-jun’s eyes sparkled.
I thought Jason would only listen to classical music. Is he a hidden fan of our company…?
“My teacher told me to listen to a variety of music.”
…Ah.
Seo-jun nodded, thinking that it made sense.
If it weren’t for Professor Benjamin’s words, Jason Moore would have never listened to the genres he wasn’t interested in.
“Have you ever been to a concert? K-POP or any other concert?”
“No, I haven’t. When I was young, I didn’t have the money to go… Well, even if I did, I wouldn’t have gone because I wasn’t interested.”
Jason Moore shrugged and said.
Before he met Benjamin Morton, Jason Moore was one of the poor street kids who lived from hand to mouth. He had no financial or time resources to go to a concert. Even if he had money, he would have spent it all on filling his stomach.
It wasn’t a hidden past either (when he became a disciple of Professor Benjamin Morton, the reporters dug it up, and Jason Moore didn’t hide it. He just felt sorry for the professor.), so Seo-jun, who knew about it, nodded and listened to Jason Moore’s story.
“After I met my teacher, I was immersed in violin and had no interest in anything else. I’m not really interested in it now either. I just listen to it when I hear it.”
Even though he wasn’t interested, he searched and listened to the songs of the singers from Cocoa Entertainment whenever they came out. That was because of Seo-jun, who was sitting in the passenger seat. But he swallowed that and didn’t say it out loud. It was too embarrassing.
“But why did you say you would go?”
He asked around, and the only person who said he had time was Jason Moore, whom he thought would be the least likely to go.
“I had some free time, and I was curious about what the concert was like. It’s a totally different atmosphere from a classical performance.”
“That’s true.”
Seo-jun nodded.
Sitting quietly and listening to the performance in a classical concert and shaking your hips and enjoying it intensely in a pop concert were definitely different atmospheres.
“Well, I guess it’s a different feeling to participate as a performer or as an audience, but I thought it wouldn’t be bad to try it once.”
Seo-jun smiled brightly at Jason Moore’s words, who had spent more time on stage as a performer.
“It’ll be fun to participate as an audience too.”
***
Blue Moon’s LA concert hall.
As the huge concert hall got closer, Jason Moore let out a sigh without realizing it.
It was still a few hours before the show started, but there were so many people that it was hard to talk.
Seo-jun’s shoulders lifted slightly at Jason Moore’s reaction.
My friends are doing so well!
“Blue Moon is the most popular Korean boy group.”
“…It seems so.”
Seo-jun pointed out the window and explained excitedly. Jason Moore listened to the explanation while paying attention to the driving.
“Over there, they sell official goods made by the company, and some people wait early to buy them. The fans also exchange or share unofficial goods with each other, and some people give out cookies or candy.”
The concert was very different from the classical performance from the moment they waited for the show.
The fans’ outfits dyed in blue, the designated color of Blue Moon, the placards they held, and the props like light sticks. They were things that couldn’t be seen in a classical performance.
But there was something in common.
No matter where he looked, there were excited people. He could clearly see the expectation and excitement that filled their hearts in Jason Moore’s eyes.
“That’s nice.”
“Right?”
At Jason Moore’s words, Seo-jun, who was busy taking pictures of the outside situation with his phone camera, smiled brightly.
***
A sleek car entered the concert staff-only parking lot.
As soon as he got the call, the Cocoa Entertainment singer team staff who was waiting greeted Seo-jun, who got out of the car.
“/Seo-jun!/”
“/Hello. Hyung./”
Seo-jun also smiled and greeted the singer team staff hyung, who he had known since the old office.
He seemed to have come out personally because he heard that Seo-jun was coming, even though he had a position that didn’t need to do so.
“It’s an honor to meet you!”
The singer team staff shook hands and greeted Jason Moore, who got out of the driver’s seat. Seo-jun’s eyes narrowed at the staff hyung’s hand, which was trembling slightly.
…It seems like he came out not because of me.
“Hyung, are you a fan of Jason?”
“…Shh!”
It turned out that he was a fan of the violinist Jason Moore.
Seo-jun and Jason Moore followed the singer team staff hyung (his steps seemed light as if they were flying.) into the concert hall.
As soon as they entered, they saw the staff who were busy preparing for the concert.
It felt more noisy and chaotic than the filming set or the classical concert hall.
‘The filming set is recorded, so you can shoot it again and again, and the classical concert hall doesn’t have fireworks or lifts.’
But the concert stage was live and had a lot of fancy devices, so it seemed busier.
‘You also have to change your clothes for different concept songs.’
And you have to think about safety.
They all had a hard time.
“Blue Moon is rehearsing right now, do you want to watch?”
The singer team staff asked.
“Will it bother them?”
“It’s okay. It’s almost the last part.”
At that, Seo-jun and Jason Moore nodded.
Seo-jun and Jason Moore, who pressed their hats tightly so that the staff wouldn’t be surprised, followed the singer team staff.
When they entered the entrance connected to the stage, they saw the Blue Moon members moving around on the protruding stage.
They couldn’t use up all their energy in the rehearsal, so they seemed to be lightly matching their harmony.
“/Eden. It would be better if you moved a little more to the side./”
“/Like this?/”
They didn’t even notice that Seo-jun had arrived, and they were adjusting their lines with serious expressions.
And in front of the stage where the Blue Moon members were moving around, there was a huge empty audience seat.
“It would be amazing if this place was filled with audience, right?”
“That’s right.”
Both Jason Moore, who was a solo violinist on stage, and Seo-jun, who had been on stage a few times, exclaimed at the size of the concert hall. The singer team staff shrugged his shoulders.
Our kids are this good!
They watched until the end of Blue Moon’s rehearsal.
***
“Wow! Hello!”
When they finished the rehearsal and came to the waiting room, there was a world-famous violinist.
The Blue Moon members bowed almost 90 degrees in astonishment as they greeted the world-famous violinist. Jason Moore, who had learned some Korean culture from Seo-jun, smiled lightly and returned the greeting.
“/What about me?/”
Seo-jun, who was standing next to Jason Moore, raised his hand slightly.
“/Seo-jun, you are… too familiar…/”
“/We are friends./”
“/Right. We don’t need to greet separately./”
But they still ran up to him with bright smiles and hugged him.
“/Tell me about Shadow and Knight!/”
“/ShenNa! ShenNa!/”
“/When is it coming out?/”
…Is this a greeting?
“/Ahem. Guys?/”
The manager’s cough and eye gesture made the Blue Moon members calm down.
They had forgotten that Jason Moore was there for a moment.
“We don’t usually act like this… not like this, but…”
The leader, Choi Jae-won, tried to make an excuse for the well-behaved Blue Moon members, but his voice faded as if he couldn’t lie. Jung Eun-sung added.
“We do act like this.”
Seo-jun burst into laughter and Jason Moore also chuckled.
In a relaxed atmosphere, they greeted each other again and chatted lightly.
“/Look at this. There are so many fans outside./”
“/Wow!! So many!/”
“/Crazy… I’m starting to get nervous again!/”
Kim Si-hoon and Park Eden made a fuss over the pictures of the outside of the concert hall that Seo-jun showed them.
“/Send it to me on Batok./”
“/Me too./”
“/Okay. Just a moment./”
Jung Eun-sung, Choi Jae-won, and Baek Yi-hyun smiled with excited faces and asked him to send the pictures.
Jason Moore thought that he must have taken them hard for this.
Nothing could ignite the performers’ enthusiasm more than the fans’ eager anticipation.
After having a short conversation with Blue Moon, Seo-jun and Jason Moore got up from their seats to move to the VIP seats.
Since it was a concert, they couldn’t take any more time.
“/Have fun, guys. I’ll cheer for you hard./”
Seo-jun, who had given them a bouquet of flowers first, shook the Blue Moon light stick and said. The Blue Moon members laughed.
“/Yeah./”
“/We’ll show you how much we’ve grown!/”
Above the heads of the Blue Moon members.
The numbers that only Seo-jun could see sparkled.
****
The VIP seats were not in the front, but in the back.
It was because it was easier to escape when they were caught, rather than attracting attention in the front.
But they could see well because it was on the first floor.
“Here’s the light stick.”
Seo-jun took out a light stick from the paper bag he was holding and handed it to Jason Moore.
Jason Moore narrowed his eyes.
He knew that there were light sticks because he had Seo-jun’s light stick, the Sprout Stick, and the snowballs for each work at home, but.
“…Do I have to hold it too?”
“It would be weird if you didn’t.”
Seo-jun pointed to the audience who were starting to sit in their seats one by one. The fans with excited faces held their placards and light sticks dearly. It seemed like it would be strange if they didn’t have a light stick.
‘Well, they won’t care anyway because they’re watching the stage.’
Seo-jun grinned, thinking that he had brought two for this.
Jason Moore looked at the Blue Moon light stick with a slightly uneasy look and then sighed lightly and grabbed it. He felt like he had been tricked.
“It’ll be fun.”
“…Yeah.”
As Seo-jun and Jason Moore were talking, the Blue Moon fans also started to take their seats in the empty seats near where the two men were sitting.
They glanced at the two men sitting there.
Jason Moore leaned his body to the side and whispered to Seo-jun.
“Are you sure you won’t get caught?”
He could just walk around the street without anyone knowing his face because he wasn’t interested in classical music, but Seo-jun’s appearance was shining. Even if he wore a hat and had a good nose, he thought he would get caught if he was this close.
Seo-jun smiled and said.
“It’s okay.”
Because,
“When will it start? I wish it started soon!”
“I couldn’t buy the goods! I should have come earlier…!”
“What clothes will our kids wear today? Suit! Wear a suit!”
“/I’m a saint!! Hahaha!!/”
No one cared about the two men.
“They won’t care at all.”
“…It seems so.”
Jason Moore was convinced by the sight of the fans who didn’t pay attention to them and only looked at the stage with sparkling eyes.
***
A moment later.
Blue Moon’s LA concert began with dazzling fireworks.
