★ The Second Life Idols Lucky Plan – Chapter 122


[The name I thought of was Deloading.]


The person holding the paper with the first candidate's name written on it was Do Ji-hyuk. Do Ji-hyuk spoke with a confident smile on his lips.


[Fans are precious people who always heal us. I came up with the name 'Deloading' because I thought that your existence was similar to the time you need to recover and recharge your body while exercising. There is also a 'D' in 'OneDear', so it can be connected.]


The pronunciation and meaning were good. Rather, it could be said to be touching.

However, idol makers had no choice but to whisper.


-That's what my fitness trainer keeps talking about.

-Ouch PTSD


Because that word was a so-called 'lingo' often used by people who were serious about fitness.


-Ah, Do Ji-hyuk's profile said that exercise was his hobby, but I didn't expect this to confirm that it was true.

-Jihyuk...there's a reason why you're in good shape...

-You meant well.


Idol makers could not hide their light-headed feelings at the thought that they might end up using health lingo as their fandom name.


Do Ji-hyuk's candidate name was erased in the minds of not the 'Deloaders'  from the list of options and hope was placed on other members.


[I ... I named it Sweet Sweet.]


... The situation somehow seemed to get worse.

The second candidate to be announced was Ju Dan-woo. He continued speaking as if he were embarrassed, with a soft smile on his lips.


[Because our fans always make us happy and sweet. The pronunciation is cute... ... .]


The third was Kang Hyun-jin.


[I named it Climbing. Just as we have gone through survival together with you, we will continue to climb the difficult terrain of the entertainment industry together, with that in mind... ... .]


The next candidate to come forward was Aiden Lee.


[I'm for Prom! If we are 'Dear', you are 'Prom'! Dear, Prom, Dear, Prom~!]


Yu Chan-hee spoke for the fifth time.


[I want Vita! Our fans are the driving force that gives us strength and allows us to move. So I named it Vita, which comes from vitamins!]


At this point, idol makers had no choice but to realize the severity of the situation.


-it's an emergency.

- Well... can you open the contest option again? We will try our best.

-No, but isn't prom okay? No? Am I being written off?

-Am I the only one disturbed right now? You have to choose one of these, right?

-NO, NO, NO, NO AND NO!


Where did the talent that shined every time they created a song, choreography, or lyrics go? All of the fandom name candidates that OneDear created showed off their extreme sense of depravity.


That's why idol makers were suspicious, wondering if the members were just playing a prank.


[I really thought about it a lot, do you like it?]

[I did too a little... Is it a big deal?]


Looking at the member's simultaneous expressions of excitement and anxiety, it was obvious that they were sincere.


[It's not easy to choose a name. I think it's even more difficult because I want to give you guys the prettiest and coolest name in the world.]


In addition, as the members continued to speak with slightly embarrassed expressions, the idol makers immediately were divided

Tallulah faction, which said, "I'm worried because it's so pretty," 

and the Let's Raise My Baby Strictly faction, which said, "No matter how much I love you, I have to say it right away."


////PRD: Tallulah is used when someone makes a slip of the tongue unintentionally. Then, make a sudden change in opinion. Like, when you say something tastes weird, but then find out it was actually made by your friend's mom, you say no wonder it taste so unique and nice, and say Tallulah.////


-I'm really sorry, guys... I'm sorry...

-They are indeed names!

-The kids are trying to make it with good intentions. There's a lot of talk about it; I like the names that the kids give themselves, whatever they may be, rather than the names that the company just gives them haphazardly.

-the best efforts do not always bring good results ^^

-No, prom is pretty.


As the two groups continued to argue in the chat window, taking turns saying to humbly accept it because it was a name given by the members and to choose a good fandom name now that would last a lifetime, the remaining two people came forward.


As a result, idol makers had no choice but to place their hopes on the two remaining members. 

Won Yoo-ha, who has always shown sparkling planning skills, and Cheon Se-rim, who has a unique sense of humor, might come up with a more sound fandom name.

And fortunately, this expectation was not betrayed.


[The name I came up with is.... voila. This is 'Wantyou'!]

[I thought of the name 'Yourone'.]


A candidate for the name who was reasonably sane and had goodwill came forward.


[We always want the love of our fans, and we are the ones who need our fans. So I named it 'Wantyou' to express our desire for our fans~!]

[Just like the name we gave ourselves with the hope that we would become idols who receive love, you are the only people we have to protect and be with. With the same mindset of 'wanting to be one and only', I thought about the name 'Your one' by combining 'your' and 'one']


The chat window was soon filled with generous applause and cheers as the right candidates finally appeared. Cheon Se-rim, who was watching the chat window closely, smiled and asked.


[Everyone, which name do you like?]


The idol makers, who finally had a name to choose, thought it was time to rush to vote.


-Let's go, Yourone. The relationship between Yourone and OneDear is perfect.

-I think Wantyou has a beautiful pronunciation!! It has a good meaning and is very well written.

-Is it just me who likes... prom?

-Aiden probably came up with Prom in 5 minutes lets be real 

-Danwoo, Sweet My Angel, I will give up the word sweet to you... Let's go to English school together. >.<

-Chanhee, you are the vitamin, not us...


There were a total of seven candidates, but in reality, there were only two options.


[Hmm, WantYou and YourOne are the most popular?]

[Is a shame.]

[I definitely think the candidate names that Serim and Yoo-ha came up with are good because they have some connection with the group name and have a pretty meaning. So should we decide on one of these two? Is everyone okay with that?]


Do Ji-hyuk, who was checking the chat window, asked that question and the idol maker's opinions seemed to have been narrowed down to two.

However, the number of mentions of 'WantYou' and 'YourOne' were almost the same, so the members were hesitating which name to choose.


[Shall we leave it to luck this time, shall we?]

[Oh, rock-paper-scissors again?]


Cheon Se-rim glanced at Yoo-ha and spoke in a playful voice, followed by Do Ji-hyuk, who grinned in response. The idol makers expressed their doubts as Won Yoo-ha's expression changed to where his soul seemed to leave.


-leave it to luck??

-Rock Paper Scissors? What u mean by again?


[We decide with a game of rock, paper, scissors, just like back then.]


Won Yoo-ha sighed, leaving behind the idol makers who were curious about Cheon Se-rim speaking without context.


[...] Then decide right now. Don't think about using tricks later.]

[By the way, Hyung, I always try to be fair.]

[...] ... .]


At those words, Yoo-ha looked at Cheon Se-rim with a disillusioned expression as if asking if he had a conscience. Cheon Se-rim, who was giggling at him, clenched his fist and held it out in front of him.


[Now then, let's decide on the candidate name of the person who won 'this time too.']

[Good.]


Won Yoo-ha put out his fist, and there was a moment of tension between the two.


[One, two, ... three!]

[Oh.]

[Wow~!]


In the rock, paper, scissors that followed, Won Yoo-ha put out paper and Cheon Se-rim put out his fist, and the fandom name was decided to be 'YOURONE', created by Won Yoo-ha.


-Congratulations, Yoo-ha. Thank you so much for the pretty name!!

-Yourone is good. Now we also have a nameㅠㅠㅠ Let's forget about Design Your Idol and be reborn as OneDear Yourone

-May we become your one just as you become our one. :)


The fandom name was finally decided. With OneDear about to leap forward, it was a time when fans who would now be called Yourone felt a new sense of belonging.


[Yoo-ha must be really lucky; he won the leader election as well.]


OneDear, who was applauding and laughing at the innocent words that were said at that moment, froze.


-..?

-Leader?

-HAHAHA

-Elect a leader? Yoo-ha?

-Has Yoo-ha become the leader?


OneDear was not the only one who listened to Aiden Lee. The MeTubers who were watching U Live in real time naturally expressed their doubts.


[Aiden... ... .]

[Wow.. ... .]


The Yourones were able to remember one fact when they saw OneDear look of complete defeat.

In the currently released trailer for OneDear's exclusive reality show <Design Your OneDear>, the topic of leader election came up.


-An idol who spoils a reality show's first episode that hasn't aired from the first ULive.

-HAHAGHAHAJHHAHAH

-That silence  ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-why does this poor kid keep getting stuck in the leader spot? I bet he got tricked..


The identity of the leader, which was supposed to be kept secret until the broadcast, has now been spoiled by Aiden Lee.


The members could not hide their laughter at the sight of Won Yoo-ha looking at Aiden Lee with an expression that was half dumbfounded and half soulless.


Since <Design Your Idol>, Aiden Lee's sudden bursts and Won Yoo-ha stopping him were familiar to fans. It was confirmation that this would continue throughout the five years of activity following <Design Your Idol>.

Won Yoo-ha, who was sighing and touching his forehead as if his head was pounding, looked quietly at the screen and opened his mouth with a tired face.


[Forget... Even if we ask, they won't forget, right?]


The voice was extremely earnest, but Yourone was resolute.


-Please take care of me, Yoo-ha, our leader ^ㅡ^

-The♥Prettiest♥Leader♥Ever♥Won♥Yoo♥Ha♥

-Yipee! The best leader!


[...] Well, let's end OneDear's first ULive here... ... . We'll just leave now.]

[...] Am I gonna get scolded?]

[Aiden, being quiet here would mean less scolding... ... .]


Aiden Lee spoke with an anxious face hiding, followed by Kang Hyun-jin, who was next to him, patting him with a serious face. Won Yoo-ha glanced at him for a moment and spoke again in a friendly voice to Yourone, who was watching the live performance.


[...] Thank you for joining us. We'll be back as soon as possible. I will take good care of Aiden.]

[Then, since it's already been revealed, let's say hello to leader Yoo-ha...]


When the live stream started, it seemed that Do Ji-hyuk, the oldest member, deliberately gave each member a certain number of greeting lines to avoid revealing the leader.

Won Yoo-ha sighed again and nodded obediently. Then, he started the final greetings in the center of the members.


[Two three. BE YOUR WORLD, OneDear!]

[The coolest in the world~!]

[See you again soon!]

[Don't go and spread rumors!! It's our little secret!]


{Live stream has ended}


The live ended with Aiden Lee urgently adding the last words.


Fan's firepower was concentrated that night across social media


First ULive spoiler:

OneDear leader, Yoo-ha 

#SORRYISTARTEDARUMOR 


As expected, evidence of Yoo-ha's betrayal, who looks flabbergasted, spreads everywhere.


[Pre-release/OneDear Leader ] You can decide like this... ? Really? (Feat. You know this is all fabrication, right?)]


The first episode of <Design Your OneDear> reality show, which seemed to have been rushed posted a pre-release edited version of the leader election.

Laughter is the easiest sales weapon. Fans who were aware of this quickly created a humorous edited version linking OneDear's first U Live with the leader election competition and spread it on MeTube.


- Hahahahahahaha I didn't know they had this kind of image

- Won Yoo-ha Another road of hardship has opened up hahahahahaha Cheer up!

- The way this is what got me interested in them,

-Looking at this, it actually feels like survival is over hahahaha the kids are playing like this ㅠㅠ


Meanwhile, the other charms of the members, hidden beneath the tears and sad narratives in the survival program, began to become known to K-pop fans, and people became curious.


A feeling has spread among the K-pop fandom that the group called OneDear is quite interesting and that you can look forward to their future activities.


And the public was able to turn that expectation into confidence sooner than expected.


"Then, intern Hyunjin, try acting!"

"You say you're an experienced person?"


On a cable entertainment program famous for its extreme intensity.


"Then I will act as your counterpart."


It was also an unexpected combination of Won Yoo-ha, Do Ji-hyuk, and Kang Hyun-jin.
