proh!ject idol Music Bank - ✭ Music Bank Special Stage is near! ✦ [RESULTS OUT]

[Elscian]

Heaven is an elegant bop, anticipating

[Bel.]

The performances are as follows:

Intro Screen → Heaven → Power

Outfits: Intro; Heaven; Power

 

 

Intro Screen:

What looks like heaven and a deity looking at the "earth" will quickly appear before the stage appears. It's Baejin. (This is green screen gimmick)

They are going down the stairs 4 on the left, 3 on the right. 

Felix - San - Keonhee - Baejin (center) - Bangchan - Beomgyu - Keeho

 

Heaven:

 

 

Nothing concerning happens during their performance, but the audience do notice a number of things:

• The stage has a slightly purple colored lightning to make it look a bit more sek shu. Cherry blossoms started falling from the bridge of the song to the end and at the "ending fairy".
• It is an OT7 ending fairy, as Heaven's choreo ends with all of them on their backs... they rotated back to stare back at the camera, fanning themselves elegantly.(and basically dying for oxygen but pretending they are cool). 
• The camera work was a little shaky at the start, but was quickly fixed once the first chorus happened.
• Beomgyu had a cherry blossom leaf stuck on his cheek during his fairy ending. He pretended it didn’t bother him but once it was over quickly took it out in annoyment and made the audience laugh at his behavior. 

 

Power:

 

 

[Set\This but in Blue]

 

The performance happened smoothly. There were loud fan chants during this song in particular. The audience do notice a number of things:

• This time around the camera zoomed in starting from Bangchan's face and showed all the other members before the song started.
• During the ending fairy, each member lowered their fan and each one of them mouthed "Thank you" with a slight smile. Keeho (winks) > Bang Chan > Beomgyu (Does a finger heart) > San (Bows his head slightly) > Keonhee (exaggerates the thank you mouthing) > Baejin (pose like a visual) > Felix (does the cheek heart and waves goodbye)
• San had the loudest cheer by far, you could hear the fan screaming his name the whole performance, it ended up a little distracting for everyone. 
• Felix forgot one of his lines, but played it real cool by making a sassy cat gesture instead.
• Bang Chan and Keeho bumped into each other, but both were at the back of the choreography during that moment. It easily went unnoticed by the majority of people.

Special Interview n2
MC Juyeon: It’s time for our second special interview with our guest, New! What special facts can you share with us?
New: Hm, did you know that ASS Entertainment is the only company with a subsidiary label?
MC Juyeon: Wow, really?
New: Yep, HornE. And did you know that out of all the CEOs, the richest are Zack Morris and Shinki?
MC Juyeon: Who’s the poorest?
New: The poorest CEO is Lee. 
MC Juyeon: Not as poor as Moodz, though. (donate won to moodz)
New: Another fact our staff has gathered is while HZF Entertainment is the most active on Twitter, ASS Entertainment has the biggest following.
MC Juyeon: Wow, interesting stats you got there. Anything else you would like to share?
New: Overall, the most popular trainees are in Ilgaksu. 
MC Juyeon: Thank you for sharing your fun facts! Back to our performances.

ASS Entertainment has the biggest following.

 

Fake followers!!

[Bel.]

The performances are as follows:

Intro → Hopeful on a Reckless Night → Sparkle

Outfits: Hopeful on a Reckless Night; Sparkle

 

Intro:

 

We see a dark stage with sparkling stars, and a giant glowing moon. Atop the moon sits a boy...Sunwoo.
Looks like after netizen's appreciative posts about Sunwoo, ASS entertainment decided to give him his shining moment.

Sunwoo (whispers): On this night...a long time ago...we found the magic. This special night. The silent night.

Sunwoo jumps off the moon and comes forward on the stage. The Ilgaksu members join him one by one. 

 

Hopeful on a Reckless Night:

[Dance intro followed by the choreo]

 

 

 

 

Something unexpected happened at the end of the performance, a message for the UNI. The audience do notice a number of things:

• As soon as Sunwoo appeared on that Moon, the cheers were so loud that we weren’t able to understand what he whispered properly, captions were added for the offline viewers.
• At the end of the performance, we can see the lights fading. But one big constellation appears on the starry backdrop....UNI. After seeing the UNI's name on those starry skies, the Ilgaksus get the strength to come back with a brighter and energetic performance.
• Yeji danced so hard during the intro that she dropped her hand mic out the stage. She had to continue the performance lip syncing. Fans said she handled it very professionally and even started shouting much louder to make sure that she was supported no matter what.
• The camera work during the intro was mostly focusing on the formation rather than individual members. However, the camera-man filmed a random shot of Juyeon's nose from very close, it only lasted 1 seconds, but it was rather funny.
• And it looks like Juyeon got a lot of center time in this performance. After all, he worked really hard on his dancing!

 

Sparkles:

 

 

Illgasku, coming with even more surprises, had another special ending that left many of us emotional.. The audience do notice a number of things:

• We can see a shiny new stage with a giant disco ball hanging at the top. The Ilgaksu members enter one by one like a bunch of cute, energetic and swagalicious kids. Xiaoting enters playing with her hair buns. Juyeon enters while putting on his shades. Yeji comes in with a hair flip, and Sunwoo, shocked by Yeji's hair flip, takes off his shades and puts it on his head. Finally Chuu enters with a bright smile and takes center stage.
• After Chuu went viral for her memes, ASS decided to make her the center for this stage. She had the most parts on camera.
• The members danced happily to the song, their contagious energy was felt and given to the fans watching as well.
• Xiaoting winked during her killing part, and had the fans melting to her.
• Something surprising shows up towards the climax of their performance. All the lovely messages that the UNI's left for the Ilgaksus start appearing one by one on the screen behind them. The Ilgaksus dance with a big smile on their face while the UNIs messages are showing behind them. The UNIs chant along loudly: " Yeji is the prettiest unicorn" "Chuu is the sweetest little bean" "Juyeon is the most handsome and talented" "Juyeon is the boss" "Yeji is a dancing queen" "Sunwoo is a talented genius""Xiaoting's beauty makes me melt""I love them all"
• The camera work was quite terrible for this stage however, a lot of zoom in and zoom out make it hard for the online audience to see the members properly.
• Yeji was the Ending Fairy of this performance, chosen the most popular member by UNIs.

Interview with Celestial Girls:
Sakura: Hello, we are Celestial Girls! We hope you will enjoy our performance today.
Karina: We’ve been working very hard to show our fans a new side of ourselves that they haven’t seen before!
MC Juyeon: Of course, you will all do great! Is there anything else you want to say to your fans before your performance?
Yunjin: Thank you for supporting us since the very beginning, we’ll make sure to give you a show worth watching!
Yuki: Please support us!
The other members agree. Moon Sua and Winter make a heart together.
MC Juyeon: Yes, this has been MC Juyeon..
MC Wonyoung: and MC Wonyoung, now unto the very last performance of the episode. I am so excited for this one!!! It’s Celestial Girls with their very first performance today.

Special Interview n3:
MC Wonyoung: Now, for our third and final special interview with New! What facts can you share with us this time?
New: At TNS Entertainment we’ve kept very close tabs on all of the trainees and companies. So that means we know a lot. Did you know that the gossip thread is managed by an employee? We’re always watching, we know every scandal.
MC Wonyoung: Oh, yes, um…good to know. Can you tell us who the most loved idol out of all 50 trainees is?
New: It’s Celestial Girls’ Karina!
MC Wonyoung: Of course!
New: And did you know, despite their scandals, SW Entertainment has gotten the most CF deals? All publicity is good publicity, as they say.
MC Wonyoung: Anything else you want to share?
New: Out of all the idols, Ilgaksu’s Sunwoo has the most wit. He consistently won the best speech in everything he participated in.
MC Wonyoung: He seems to be very smart! How about one last fact to share with us?
New: Something interesting is, out of all the companies, Pathernon Creative had the quickest profit. Which means we at TNS also made a quick profit…
MC Wonyoung: Yes…well thank you for agreeing to be a guest star! Now, for our last performance of the night.

Wbk pathernon paid the bills 

[Shinki]

Rumor has it all other companies are yet to pay the idols

[Bel.]

The performances are as follows:

Heaven’s Gate [Electro-Pop Remix] → Transition Phase → Ascension [Orchestral Remix]

Outfits: Heaven’s Gate; Ascension

 

 

Heaven’s Gate:

[Set fantasy\Magic Futuristic vibes with blue tones]

 

[Electro Pop Remix]

(It's a very special performance for the group because a senior idol that has shown a lot of support for the girls is joining them: Girls' Generation Taeyeon! The 8 of them performed the group's debut song together and showed the fans the combination of idols from different generations!)

 

Nothing too concerning happens during their performances, but the audience do notice a number of things:

• The screams for Taeyeon are much louder than for the members of the Celestial Girls, making some of the fans upset during the performance.
• Winter had some mic difficulty during the first half of the performance. She was a little stressed and it did show on camera and in front of the audience.
• The Camera-man had difficulty with the members and mixed Moon Sua and Yuki a lot during their parts.
• The Ending Fairy were Sakura and Yunjin. Both had a very refreshing smile to give.

 

Transition Phase:

 

(Once Heaven’s Gate performance starts to wrap up the stage fades to black. Suddenly a delicate violin note can be heard from across the stage…as the stage begins to fill with light an entire orchestra is shown to have gathered. They start the beginning notes of Ascension while the girls go through a “magical” transformation into their next outfits for the next stage!)

 

Ascension:

 

[Set Fantasy\Magic reminiscent of lost ruin]

 

[Orchestra Version]

As it was a beautiful performance, some errors did happen during this stage. The audience do notice a number of things:

• The fan chants were neat and organized, the best and clearer ones were during the chorus. They had the best fanchant of the day with this song.
• Someone tripped during the performance. It was Sakura. You can see she was retaining her tears the rest of the performance. Her very last line was the end of the song and her teary eyes made the fans cry with her. 
• The audience could notice that the shouts for Karina were quieter than other members.
• Yunjin's live vocals shocked the audience, as it was very loud and clear, being the clearer of the day during the performance.
• The energy for this song was really high, everyone danced in sync till the start to the end of the song.
• The fans felt that with the Orchestra it didn’t look like their first music show at all.. It felt very professional.

 

[Moodz]

ENDING STAGE:
MC Wonyoung: And that concludes today’s Music Bank performances! 

MC Juyeon: It’s almost time to announce the winners, but first please make sure to vote on SNS for your favorite group!

Wonyoung and Juyeon stand around a bit awkwardly as they wait for the MuBank screens to load with the contestants. Nothing happens.

MC Juyeon: MC Wonyoung-ssi, do you think they’re trying to build anticipation?

MC Wonyoung: I’m not sure.

The screens stay blank. Wonyoung goes backstage to check on the staff, only to find that the trophies have been taken!
Wonyoung returns to the stage.

MC Wonyoung: It seems that this week, the results have been a bit delayed, so stay tuned, and we will announce it later. Remember to vote on SNS, this is your last chance!

The show ends and Wonyoung and Juyeon return backstage. The heads of TNS are there, standing menacingly inconspicuously.  

Bel: Since we so generously gave you our trainees, we thought it would only be fair to award their first trophies at our company, to give them a chance to return to their roots and give us some more exposure, of course.

MC Wonyoung: Is that allowed?

Moodz: We are the ones making the rules here.

The staff cave to TNS’ demands and agree to hold the ceremony at their company. No one but Bel and Moodz see New peeking around the corner, listening to every word.

To be continued….
