Become an Idol or Become Deceased! [fan translation] P.2

Chapter 257

The end of the year.

As it was the time to wrap up one year and welcome another, the world of pop culture buzzed with various events and celebrations.

And those interested in K-pop were gradually getting ready to view these events.

- The buzz about this year's MBS collaboration is out.

- T1 is holding another award show abroad? Obsessed with ticket sales much?

- I bet VTIC and Youngrin will sweep up the Daesang awards for albums and music.

Of course, there was no shortage of talk about TeStar, who had been a walking controversy throughout the year, whether intentionally or not.

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

[I think TeStar is likely to win the Daesang]

In award shows that give out multiple Daesang (Grand Prize) awards, it's very possible they win. Didn't they get one from ToneA last year too?

With all the buzz this year, especially after the accident, they're likely to win in several places.

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

- ?? A pity Daesang award for a car accident?? ㅋㅋㅋ

- Loviewers doing their thing again.

- ㅋㅋ I think you should be objective when talking about winning the Daesang award...!

- Don't get tricked by this. How is this a TeStar fan? They're just aggros;

It was all about the aggro 'is TeStar worthy of the Daesang award?'

For starters, the release of 'Spring out' at the beginning of the year, being a digital single, lacks any performance data other than its streaming numbers, so its evaluation was on hold.

The subsequent release, 'Nightmare,' was definitely a hit for the year, but the issue was the short duration of its promotion due to the car accident. The potential for further success was unfortunately curtailed at a moderate level due to the accident.

With one of the members falling into a coma, leading to the postponement of their pre-recorded variety shows, it was even harder to shake off the disappointed feeling of 'what might have been.' Even though they diverted attention with a charity concert, it still felt somewhat lacking to consider them as perfect candidates for the Daesang.

Moreover, even the aggros were aware. They knew that it would be difficult for TeStar to make another comeback in the latter half of the year.

- Syeombyeol definitely can't make a comeback right away.

└ For real, the agency must be really f*cking cautious about getting backlash again ㅋㅋㅋ

- Wish they'd just quickly wear themselves out and fade awayㅠㅠ

- They were overdoing it even at the charity concert ㅋ. I'd prefer the ancient Bitick, because better the devil you know.
