96 Jun's debut live concert part-1

Gyeyang gymnasium is an indoor arena located in the Gyeyang district of Incheon. In the past, karate and badminton matches of 2014 Asian games were held here. During his past life, Jun used to come here with his friends to watch volleyball matches.

But, now, the entire gymnasium was transformed within a couple of days. When Jun entered the place, he couldn't even recognize this indoor arena. It looked more like a stage prepared for award functions, although with only 3000 odd seats.

Is this really necessary when all he had to perform 2 songs?

Jun let out a sigh and inwardly cursed the management for preparing such a grand stage, "It's not their money. The budget for all my solo activities had to be paid for by me in the end. That's why I guess they didn't hesitate on spending it. But then again, I will be earning 80% profits in the end. As long as my songs will be clicked with the public, it will be alright."

Shaking his head, he left for the waiting room. Soon, his dance crew arrived. It was only then he realized that this wasn't his own live concert. There were four senior artists from the company who are helping him.

Jun never asked the details before because he thought it was a solo live concert but now, after realizing it, he felt a little embarrassed for thinking that way, earlier.

The staff told him to complete his rehearsals by 6 o'clock and the senior artists will come from then and complete their rehearsals.

Jun didn't waste time and started his rehearsals.

On the stage, as he was rehearsing for the second time, three people entered the gymnasium. Usually, the staff wouldn't let anyone enter the concert hall until it is 7:00 p.m., but they are special people for whom Jun took permission from his boss. So, they were allowed inside while the rehearsals are still going on.

Upon finishing it, Jun left the stage and went to meet them. It was his sister Dahyun, her groupmate YooA, and their manager.

"Oppa, the second one was quite good," Dahyun commented with a wide grin after Jun greeted the other two. He was surprised that they have arrived more than two hours before.

"What about the main track?" Jun then asked in expectations. Since it was the one that is going to be released in mv, he wanted to know.

"Don't you think the moves are a bit bold for a debut?" asked Dahyun in response.

Jun let out a laugh and replied, "Cute and strong performances are getting too common, you know."

"Sung-Jun-ssi, I watched the showcase. I liked the video." YooA then suddenly pitched in but became a little bit shy and stayed silent as Jun thanked her in response.

"Come with me. I'll introduce our dance crew." Jun said to her before he looked at his Manager Seon, "It won't be a problem, right?"

Upon the manager giving the signal, Jun took the three of them to meet the backup dancers. Dahyun was particularly surprised when she saw Noze.

She whispered to Jun, "That unni is very pretty."

He whispered back, "Shh, keep that to yourself. She doesn't like to be called that, for some reason."

Dahyun nodded and just greeted them. On the other hand, YooA interacted more with them, for she is also a dancer while her choreographer brother is also a dance instructor at 1million studio.

After taking a 30-minute break, they did the final rehearsal on the stage, this time, in their costumes.

Once it was done, Jun and the others rested until the artists started to arrive.

The first to arrive was the brother& sister duo, AKMU.

After them, another duo group, MOBB formed by Mino and Bobby arrived. Jun went and greeted them and received wishes of luck.

The third one to arrive is CNBLUE who were still active and quite popular in this world.

Finally, the main star of the event arrived last, just about an hour before the start of the event. In fact, he was the reason all the tickets sold out within a minute.

Just like with the other four, Jun went to the waiting room of this senior and greeted him, "Hello, sunbae-nim."

"It's been a while, Sung-Jun-ssi. The last time was during the treasure campus, right?" G-Dragon responded with a pleasant time, although there was tiredness on his face.

Jun heard from his manager that G-Dragon was in the middle of a world tour and added Incheon to his schedule. Just a day before, he was done with the concert in Manila, and soon, he will have to head to Sydney but instead of resting, he was here, boosting Jun's popularity with his fame.

Mark really felt grateful because G-Dragon is different from others. He is popular and rich enough to start his own company but stayed with the agency that gave him the life. He is treated like a King at Genesis Entertainment but he still listens to the requests of CEO Hwang and YG, trying to compromise with them, all the time.

After talking for a couple of minutes, Jun returned to his own waiting room. He and his backup dancers are ready.

Jun was especially worried about Noze's condition. Previously, he felt like he don't need to care but now that he was here, about to perform, he couldn't help but think of worse case scenarios of her fainting in the middle or at the end. Should he try to convince her to not go up there with him?

Jun thought for a bit and in the end, decided against it. He knew that giving up because of fear of failure is worst than facing failure while trying.

Since he already thought of her as a teammate, despite only being a replaceable backup dancer, Jun decides to face it along with her in case she messes it up.

Meanwhile, the crown filled the gymnasium.

The lights were switched off except for the stage. The audience started screaming already with various light sticks in their hands as a man appeared on the stage with a mic. He is a prominent actor with several awards to his name.

He waved his hands for a while to the ones that were screaming his name.

"Welcome to Debut live concert 2018 of Sky"

"I'm your host, Jung Junho."

"First of all, I would like to thank you all for coming. I would also like to express the special thanks to guests from abroad whole came a long way to attend."

After he was done with his opening speech, the performances of the senior artists started.

The first to perform is CNBLUE, who made the audience just get on their feet and wave the lights as they sang Loner, followed by Intuition, and ended with I'm Sorry.

They didn't talk about anything afterward. They came, they performed, they said thank you, and they left after finishing the job.

It's not just them. The remaining three were also the same as them.

By the time G-dragon ended his performance with 'Without You (ft Rose)', the audience's energy was at its peak and finally, at around 8:05, a few minutes later than they planned, Jun's training footage was played on the screen.

Another five minutes later, Jun nervously got onto the stage, not knowing how his mv had already crossed 160,000 views within these first 10 minutes.
