Chapter 77
In August 2019, Seventeen started a new round of world tour concerts. According to the official schedule, the concerts will last until February of the following year, which can be said to be very busy.
The World Tour is a very important schedule for any idol group, and pledis also attaches great importance to this work.
Many fans of Seventeen were eagerly looking forward to the concert. They never expected that, just three months later, something happened in the group.
【Scoops has recently developed symptoms of psychological anxiety. In order to get a correct diagnosis, we are conducting precise confirmation in many aspects. In this regard, we believe that sufficient rest and stability are needed. Therefore, after careful discussion between Scoups himself and the members of Seventeen, we finally decided to temporarily suspend activities. .]
Cui Shengcheol has serious psychological problems, and Seventeen can only carry out activities with 12 members in the near future. As soon as this official announcement came out, the relevant topic directly topped the Korean trend, and it also caused concern among many fans at home and abroad.
Some fans posted posts criticizing the company on the forum, blaming the extremely unhealthy physical condition of the members caused by the death trip.
Seventeen has a total of 13 members, and currently 9 members are in trouble, including knee injuries, shoulder dislocations, collapse, fainting in the middle of the concert, enteritis, deterioration of vocal cords and neck conditions...
Then a few days ago, Cui Shengche, who was the backbone of the team, had to suspend work due to psychological problems. Despite this, the company had no idea of appropriately reducing the workload, and a very intensive schedule was arranged until the following summer.
【Is pledis crazy?】
[The behind-the-scenes of this new album say that the new album has been prepared for a long time, and the concerts and albums have been held together. This is not to say that there will be no tour, but I just hope that I can pay more attention to my physical condition. 】
[I’m a fan of other people but it’s so pitiful... What measures should the company take if the disease is so severe, really...]
【The children's cartilage should be worn out... everyone is sick and tired, it's really hard.】
[pledis, please think about the children’s bodies. Ttt. The body is too hard and there is a limit to relying on mental support. tttt.]
[Haha, maybe they will just work hard to make money when the contract ends... I heard that the schedule is full until August next year, and the members who have started to fall ill will continue to perform. I am really worried. 】
[The agency should pay more attention to the children, don’t just treat them as a cash cow, let them have a restttt.]
Since the company issued an official announcement asking Cui Shengche to suspend his activities, he was forced to start a two-point and one-line mode in the dormitory clinic. He actively cooperates with the doctor's treatment every day and stays in the dormitory to recuperate the rest of the time, hoping to return to group activities as soon as possible.
Cui Shengche has also heard about the recent public opinions on the Internet. Even if he is alone in the dormitory, he can't let go of the members of the group at all. Whenever he has time, he sends messages and calls to keep in touch with them at all times.
"I didn't originally have such a personality. My personality itself was such that I couldn't stand at the front, but the representative gave me this position. He said that this position is created by people. From that time on, I also felt that I understood Yes, and I have worked very hard to do it.”
In an interview with dispatch news agency, Cui Shengcheol said this.
"When the members say that Scoups has led the team well, and they praise me for doing my role well, my mood will improve and I will become very happy. That is the happiest time."
Seventeen was not a group that debuted easily. The company was on the verge of bankruptcy, and the debut time was repeatedly delayed. At first, his partners walked away and dispersed. However, he gritted his teeth and persisted until the end, until the president sold a house for the group to debut. , Seventeen relies on its own lyrics, music, and choreography to completely establish itself as a self-sufficient boy band.
It is not a flat and wide road that can be walked with your eyes closed.
Cui Shengcheol led the other members of the group and walked side by side with them, step by step, and we didn't know when we got to where we are today.
He used to not think that he could play a good role as captain. After actually taking over the title from the president, Cui Shengche groped forward. He downplayed all uneasiness, put aside all selfishness, and thought about the group wholeheartedly.
The captain of Seventeen and the Scoups of Seventeen must not be selfish people.
Cui Shengche said to himself.
Time and time again, countless times consciously or unconsciously, and eventually, it naturally became a part of his body.
"I seem to... fall in love with a girl."
In a life that has lasted for more than 20 years, which is neither short nor long, Choi Seungcheol is the maknae who can act cute and coquettishly in front of his brother in front of his family. He is also the leader of the group Seventeen, the brother leader who gently accompanies and patiently guides other brothers.
When Seventeen successfully formed a group and he officially entered the entertainment industry, Cui Shengche felt as if he had grown up in an instant.
He naturally ignored the normal emotions and thoughts that the name Cui Shengche could have. Because of this, when special circumstances arise, when he confirms his own feelings with hesitation and restraint, and truly desires to express something, He still used the word "as if" which was not very positive.
——He seems to like a girl very much.
But he is not sure whether this kind of liking is correct.
In other words, Cui Shengche knew deep down in his heart that this kind of thing shouldn't happen.
Seventeen is still on the rise. As the leader of the group, he should devote all his attention to the development of the group.
He should not have this kind of hesitation, let alone have such hesitation.
"Enlinxi is indeed an excellent girl."
When he said this, Hong Zhixiu's tone was very soft, and there was a look on his face that might be difficult for outsiders to understand.
It's like sighing, like sadness.
"What do you think, Jinghan?"
"……Um."
Yin Jinghan lowered his head with a confused expression.
He felt an inexplicable sadness, both for Cui Shengche and himself.
There was a little bit of light in the living room of the dormitory, and the quartz clock on the wall made a regular sound.
Cui Shengche clasped his hands, his eyes passed over the faces of the other two close relatives one by one, and then he smiled very gently.
After this smile, the living room returned to its original calmness.
——He said nothing more.
"Brother Shengche? Brother Shengche!"
The call that was almost close at hand brought back Cui Shengcheol's inexplicably faraway thoughts. Within the refocused field of vision was Jin Mingyu who couldn't hide his fatigue but tried to show his cheerful appearance.
"I bought your favorite strawberry for brother. By the way, brother, what are you doing in the dormitory today? Are you bored?" As soon as Jin Minkui finished speaking, a large group of people immediately came around and cheered, all of them were facing Went with Cui Shengche.
"Brother, you haven't been with us these days. I'm so bored."
"Yes, yes, I really miss you so much, I miss you every moment."
"Brother Shengche is not here. I don't know what to say during the interview. I feel so uncomfortable!"
The members chatted and chatted for a long time. Cui Shengche didn't speak in a hurry, but listened patiently and gently.
Just like he had done every time before.
——"The people I spent my youth with are all in Seventeen. If I lose Seventeen, I will have nothing left."
——"The more time passes, the less and less the thought that we will be separated disappears, and it seems that we can't do it. Do you know what is the most amazing thing about us? We have a relationship that no one can understand, whether it is working or eating, Even though we are separated, we are still touched and missed when we meet again. We are very precious."
Seventeen is very precious, and the name scoops is also very precious.
So precious that he could willingly give up everything except this.
"so good……"
After the members finished complaining noisily, Cui Shengcheol sighed like this as if he had no idea.
"I'm so happy to see you."
I was very happy to see the members.
He felt very happy after becoming a scoops and having seventeen.
——"Compared to the company, the members are the priority, because the members are more important."
It's enough.
He thought so.
Thinking quietly.
Acquiring all this so far is really...enough.
Whether it’s Choi Shengcheol or scoops.
As long as Seventeen continues to exist, as long as they can accompany each other, support each other and care about each other——
Chapter completed!
