✨☄️ ͘ ࣭⸰ 𓂋 ⁺ ⭒ ݁ . NEW WAVE MUSIC: IN THE MIDDLE OF A CRISIS OR AT THE VERGE OF RENAISSANCE? FORMER EMPLOYEE SPEAKS UP!

‌POSTED BY MOD SILKY | GRAPHIC + FORMAT CREDITS TO @/whileinvenus

TRUST IN IDOLIST.COM! You’ll get the hottest and juiciest news first when visiting IDOLIST.

January 1st marks the reset of the LOOPiN cinematic universe, as it’s been surprisingly announced in an official live held in New Wave Music’s official Youtube channel on December 20th, titled ‘Future Boys 23 - What Comes’.

A live broadcast whose sole purpose is to say 'We Are Finally Given Up On Replicating LOONA’ has no business being almost sixteen minutes long, no matter how many teasers you want to showcase or how many new creative staff you want to invite to the stage to say 'hello, my name is’. If you ask me, the whole thing is only worth checking out around the last four minutes, just so you can see all the members looking like they are being held at gunpoint as they announce that the rebrand doesn’t mean they’ll stop their barely comprehensible attempts of having lore, but will now make up a new barely comprehensible lore from scratch! (Take a good look at O.z’s face at 14:32, my God, that man cannot keep his face neutral to save his own life.)

So the long story short is: LOOPiN will be entering a self proclaimed REBiRTH era in the upcoming year, which is just a fancy and stylized way to say they’ll remake their visual identity and narrative side by side with a new concept department team, made up of roughly 20 new employees.

At first glance, that might seem like the natural progression of things – as we know, New Wave Music and Blockberry Creative have officially parted ways on November 26th, and all the rights to the LOOPiN brand they shared now belong to Seo Chanhyuk, New Wave’s CEO – the main character of this whole post, I already warm you to avoid jump scares when we dive into the man in a bit –, and him alone.

SET FOR SALE Is The Fictional Second Full Album Of Equally Fictitious South Korean Boy Group LOOPiN Released

Most of the ‘TEMPO’ MV was set in retro-ish telesell green screen scenario, with the members acting in ad inspired segments trying to sell specific items that anyone familiar with their concept could see as neat references to their announced old lore, getting more overwhelmingly edited as the song went on. The few dance scenes shown were set in a simplistic set that alternated between being illuminated by all white or all red lights. After the acapella bridge, the MV consisted of mostly meta ‘behind the scenes’ fast clips, with filming equipment, silhouette of the camera crew, green screen and studio props being shown and interacted with by the members.

The MV had some hidden messages snaked in the background of the ads, with the more visible and repeated ones being ‘We accept the reality of the world with which we are presented’, from the 1998 film 'The Truman Show’, and 'The revolution won’t be televised’, taken from a Gil Scott-Heron poem of the same name, hinting at a underlying theme of media manipulation and anti consumerism.

ERA HIGHLIGHTS !!

- The return of the prodigal sons! After battling a collective songwriting block from the producing line, saying a definitive goodbye to Blockberry Creative and the title of LOONA cousins, and dealing with a series of intern problems happening behind the scenes that eventually came out to the public, LOOPiN made their return with another fully self-producing work with a whole new vibe. And they thrived!

LOOPiN member Hanjae has been confirmed to make his acting debut in the upcoming TVN adapation of the hit manhwa series 365 Days To Say ‘I Love You’.

The manhwa, which gained popularity on Naver WEEBTOON in early 2022 at it’s midrun, tells the story of Oh Garah, a university student in Seoul who’s forced to return to her small town after her estranged father gets a terminal diagnosis. Back at living like she did as a teenager, memories of who she used to be and what she left behind return, specially as Im Yongdae, her never forgotten first love, offers to help her run her small family restaurant and look out for her family.

Hanjae will be staring in the suporting role of Oh Giung, Garah’s troublemaker younger brother at the verge of high school graduation, who’s building romance with classmate Kim Jisook and overall reputation gets put at risk as he’s pushed into an odd job by Jung Seyoon, his childhood best friend.

The confirmation came with the release of a set of promotional stills from the drama.

AND I THINK I’M GLAD IT ENDED UP BEING US.

“I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour / But heaven knows I’m miserable now. / I was looking for a job, and then I found a job / And heaven knows I’m miserable now.”

starring: Hwang Chihoon / Dylan Hwang, Park Taesong, Fukunaga Haruki, Na Seungsoo, Bang Minwoo;

featuring: mentions of the other LOOPiN members, mentions of former Boy Of The Week trainees (Lee Sangjin, Alexandre Han, Matsushita Kohei / Dallas Matsushita, Kwon Dongwook), mentions of LOOPiN’s former manager, Choi Sangwon;

set in: May 7th, 2021;

word account: 8,935 words;

trigger warnings: they’re all getting awfully drunk trought this whole thing. swearing like, lots of swearing. usual angry drunk people antics. insinuations and two very vapid mention of someone dealing with anemia and depression in the past.

*note(s): 1. English is not my first language, and it might show to a native speaker or someone who’s more fluent then I am. I tried my best to iron this piece out, but if any grammatical errors flew over my head, I hope they don’t ruin the overall experience. With that out of the way, have a good read 😝 🍾

image

“Soooooo,” Haruki says, elongating the vowel for so long, he’s almost singing it. “We came all the way here to not talk about it. Got it.”

He’s squatting on the floor right in front of Dylan, very close to his feet, picking at something on his own shoe that might be really there, might just be an excuse for him to not make eye contact with anyone. There’s always a point, after he’s had too much liquor, where Haruki can’t make eye contact with anyone without getting horribly misty eyed.

Dylan’s been staring intensely at the very little he can make out of his face from this angle – just the tip of his nose, the illusion of his bottom lip and a bit of his forehead – to find out which is the truth, but Haruki isn’t bearing anything telling and obvious like a frown or a pout, so he really can’t tell no matter how much he squints.

He wishes, not for the first time, that he was an expressive and carefree type of drunk, instead of this provoking and evasive thing. Chihoon’s too dazed to read microexpressions, and if you’re not putting in all your attention and effort into catching all the microscopic shifts a face can make, it’s impossible to even begin to make out what a hammered Haruki is trying to pretend not to feel.

“I mean,” Seungsoo prompts, bouncing on the balls of his feet. The words come off slurring together off his completely red face. If asked, he’d swear he’s not drunk yet, and then he would take a long gulp of the soju bottle he’s been sipping on for the past twenty minutes to prove it, even though it would be written all over his face how much he’d be sick of it – he gets awfully competitive when he drinks with Minwoo and Haruki, he explained to Chihoon before, who’s tolerances are legendary. Dylan privately believes Seungsoo just has a complex about being left behind. “Do you have anything to say? I don’t. Lips sealed.”

“Taesong obviously has,” Minwoo comments, slowly, then seems annoyed at his pace and spits, “TaesongHasSomethingToSayLookAtHisFaceHe’sDraggingIt.”

Chihoon turns his head quickly to the left, feeling the world spin as he sends Minwoo a disapproving look – Don’t put him on the spot. Minwoo frowns right back at him with his lips pursed – Don’t tell me what not to do.

Casting his eyes down again, Chihoon worryingly looks at Taesong. He’s also squatting on the floor, keeping a bigger distance from the circle he, Seungsoo, Haruki and Minwoo formed near the walls, leaning against the cooler they borrowed to keep all the insane amount of alcohol Haruki ordered, enough to probably send half of them into a deadly coma, chilling.

He doesn’t respond to the singling out. In fact, he says nothing and stares unblinkingly ahead for so long, Chihoon thinks he’s fallen asleep with his eyes open, or something – he’s seen similar things happen to Beomseok when he’s exhausted, a couple of times. He knows it’s possible.

When Taesong finally, finally focuses his eyes and opens his mouth, the only thing that does come out of it is a loud hiccup, and then a huffed and barely comprehensible apology. Minwoo groans at him, frustrated, Seungsoo and Haruki huff laughs, amused, and Dylan sighs, tired. 

Suddenly so tired, he can feel it in his bones.

New Wave Music Has Release A Surprise Statement Today (March 16th) Announcing The Official Departure

New Wave Music has release a surprise statement today (March 16th) announcing the official departure of LOOPiN’s Beomseok from the company and the group.

It reads as follows:

Hello, this is New Wave Music. 

Beomseok, who’s been a member of LOOPiN up until now, has terminated his contract and will no longer be part of the group moving foward.

On October 2022, with the full aquisition of the members contracts made by our company after our creative departure with a former colaborator, we came to the agreement with 9 out of the then 10 members to revise past amendmends and resign for more three years. After much consideration and a two month long discussion, Beomseok has decided to not renew his contract and cease all activities as a member of LOOPiN as of March 2023.

We thank Beomseok for the five years he has given us, and we wish nothing but personal fullfilment in his journey moving foward. We hope fans will share the same sentiment, accept our apologies for the sudden news, and look foward to the future of LOOPiN with whatever shape the lineup might take.

Beomseok has also written a personal letter uploaded on Fab, his personal Instagram account and the group’s official Twitter regarding the news:

To my iNSYNCS,

It’s been hard to condense everything I want to say in a single letter. I have decided to be brief.

The decision to leave the group might seen abrupt looking from an outside perspective, but if I have to be honest, it’s been a long time coming. My heart hasn’t been set on music for a long time. I have already lived all my teenage dreams thanks to every single one of you, but now I find myself with new goals, and none of them include being an Idol for any longer then I already have. I wish I could have been honest with myself and others sooner, so I wouldn’t hurt anyone with those news now.

To my members and to my fans who have looked after me with such care for so long, from the bottom of my heart I say: thank you for all the love and support you’ve trusted on me. Thanks to it, my years with LOOPiN will be forever engraved in my mind and in my heart as some of my happiest. I’m forever grateful and indept to you.

As of what will come next for me, I don’t know for sure yet. But the certainty I have is that I won’t be in the public eye, anymore. The entertainment industry is no longer the right place for me. I trust our fans to understand and respect my wish.

With love,

Lee Beomseok.

With LOOPiN recently wrapping up the promotions for their second full album ‘Set For Sale’, and with strong rumors of a repackage already in filming stage, the departure has shocked iNSYNCs and stans alike. The hashtags #ThankYouBeomseok and #LOOPiNPerfectTen has been steadily trending on social media ever since the release of the departure statement.

New Wave Music Has Release A Surprise Statement Today (March 16th) Announcing The Official Departure

[+411, -13] Someone check on Haegon IMMEDIATLY.

[+389, -1] It’s so disrespectiful to allude to the addition of a new member in the same letter they’re announcing his departure, like? Couldn’t they give it a day at least?

[+321, -5] Whoever is replacing him better SING SING, because Beomseok is leaving some heavy shoes to fill. He’ll be missed.

[+299, -10] Is LOOPiN aware they’ll be getting a new member miss New Wave Music, that’s what I want to know

[+287, -96] Sad to say that I saw it coming. I’ve been feeling like he hasn’t been enjoying being on stage for a while now :/ hope he’ll be happy in his new path.

[+2, -457] BYE PUMPKIN! BYE PUMPKIN!

Uploaded on New Wave Music’s official youtube channel two single days after the departure of Beomseok, [#GYUJIN] Introduction Act 1 - Love Scene is a 01:58 music video featuring the (up until that point unknown) trainee Woo Gyujin.

Altought not explicitly linking itself to LOOPiN and being promoted only in the company’s social media, Minwoo and Seungsoo’s names listed on the song’s production and arranging respectively – side by side with Gyujin’s own writing credits –, as well as New Wave’s last ambiguos lines in the departure statment, was enough to connect the dots: Gyujin is definely joining LOOPiN, and he’s joining soon.

Response from the fanbase has been extremely split between pure indignation and relutant acceptance regarding the upcoming addition, and iNSYNC stan Twitter is currently on fire with complains about the music video’s awful timing, Gyujin hate hashtags, neutral Gyujin hashtags trying to compensate for the hate, and a email template from fanbases all around the world demanding New Wave explains with details the group’s future plans and postpone any lineup additions.

After only two hours of being up, the comments on the MV have been deactivated.

Taesong’s kidness and optimism have always been his most apparent qualities, and they’ve been integrated into his brand as a K-Pop Idol. INSINCs will always describe him as sweet, conforting, responsible and devoted to LOOPiN and its fans, the cardboard copy of the stereotypical ‘parent of the group’. Altought not the best or most stable performer on stage, his clear passion for singing and his dedication to keep the group united and functioning harmonically has owned him a dedicated niche fanbase, as well as the admiration of anyone who’s ever met him on the job.

Bang Minwoo, mononyously known as Minwoo, is a fictional south korean rapper, singer, music producer and dancer based in South Korea. He is a member os equally fictitious south korean boy group LOOPiN and it’s pre-debut subunit LOOPiN After First, formed by New Wave Music alongside Blockberry Creative, acting as the main rapper, sub vocalist, producer and current leader of the group.

Minwoo has been sold from day one to the audience as LOOPiN’s own Genius Idol, someone who’s immeasurable talent and potential could speak for itself. And while his fierce stage presence, frank personality and perfectionistic standards often paint him as intimidating and even harsh at first look, his large fandom and the majority of his bandmates swear there’s a caring and sentimental side to him hidden underneath the surface. Minwoo has been made an example of a near perfect performer and artist, and even if his likeability behind cameras has been up to debate more than once, the respect he has from people in the industry it’s undeniable.

Na Seungsoo, mononymously known as Seungsoo, is a fictional south korean singer and dancer based in South Korea. He is a member of equally fictitious south korean boy group LOOPiN and its former pre-debut subunit LOOPiN After First, formed by New Wave Music alongside Blockberry Creative, acting as the lead vocalist, lead dancer and producer of the group.

Seungsoo takes his self assigned role of LOOPiN’s funny man and mood maker as seriously as he takes his producing position, although fans have grown so used to seeing him cultivating running gags and jokingly praising his members – to the point of owning the title of ‘Inside iNSYNC’ –, that a percentage often forgets that Seungsoo can be a dedicated, attentious and highly artistic person in more fields then just music, an Idol with his heart on his sleeve. He’s had the most organic popularity growth in the group with little New Wave interference, and it’s now easily one of the most celebrated and market friendly members, having the most uniform ratio between korean and international fans in LOOPiN. His impulsivity, however, is something that shows past the Idol mask despite his years of experience, and could make Seungsoo be mistaken for a rookie; it mostly comes through in the form of oversharing-then-deleting posts online, and it has placed Seungsoo countless times in vulnerable positions where speculation of his personal life and true personality ran rampant – nothing he couldn’t bounce back from by ingeniously charming his audience on and off stage yet.

BASICS

GIVEN NAME :: Na Seungsoo.

ENGLISH NAME :: Sonny Na.

DATE OF BIRTH :: 10.19.97 | Libra.

ETHNICITY :: Korean.

As I mentioned before on my talk blog, LOOPiN's Draft 1 (January 2021 - August 2022) has been partially concluded by me at around 70K words spread across Google Docs and various devices Note apps. An estimated 40% of the whole LOOPiN story, what corresponds to what I like to call as their 'season 1', has been planned/written very first-drafty during this time.

Now that I'm embarking on writing Draft 2, I'll pretty much retire these pieces as they've been these past two years. Some plot bits have changed, characters lost and gained meaning, the characterization of the loop dudes has evolved, and so on, so forth.

So! Where I'm going with this! I would love to share some bits and pieces of the work I have trought an ask game, because I'm quite proud of it! So, you guys can send in any word and I'll attach a small excerpt that relates to it from the drafts!

Pink

Excerpt from the first draft of the Seungsoo centric piece 'Seungsoo's Many Moons'!

'Seungsoo's Many Moons' is such a treasure to me because writing it gave me such a fun insight into his character! Seungsoo is constantly acting without thinking on his day to day life (in LOOPiN pieces where the focus is on the group, he's one of the people that really makes the plot move forward because he has a personal moral compass that doesn't' align with anyone else, pretty much a stubborn vigilante type), so I looove writing him romancing people because he really puts on an effort to be a good partner. Terrible friend, though!

BONUS!

Pink

And if I tell you this is one out of the three times they ever act friendly with each other on first draft??? Seungsoo and J.J have extremely crashing personalities and act on complete different planes, and as ~plot happens~, they lowkey get obsessed with hurting each other. Top3 LOOPiN disaster duos.

idk if i send it here but my word is freedom! <3

TWS: Illusion to cults!

Idk If I Send It Here But My Word Is Freedom!

First excerpt from the first draft of 'The World As Seen From The Bottom Of The Stairs'!

First of all: FUCK BEOMSEOK! ALL MY HOMIES HATE BEOMSEOK! I swear, making him the main narrator for this piece was one of the worst narrative decisions I ever made. Dude was just a foil to unstable king Kim Haegon, I shouldn't have EVER given him a main character spot. 'The World As Seen From The Bottom Of The Stairs' has been my first attempt of writing the 'pilot' of LOOPiN's story, the quick starter to begin it all because linearly, it's the start of the story that really Matters, so it always made sense. It's Haruki and Haegon centric! Because they make up the Main Characters of Part 1!

Second excerpt from the first draft of 'The World As Seen From The Bottom Of The Stairs'!

Idk If I Send It Here But My Word Is Freedom!

FUCK SANGWON! ALL MY HOMIES HATE SANGWON! The thing with Haruki and Haegon is that they have never in their lives experienced freedom. Not even once. And that's a theme that is so present in LOOPiN's whole plot that I could literally add more 8 excerpts here. Haruki has ever been either captive or living in full debauchery, no in between, while Haegon is the poster child of Repression. (Something I'm contemplating to dive way deeper into in Draft 2!) Another 10/10 doom duo!

Greif

An excerpt from the first draft of "Ivan The Terrible Kills His Son (1/2)".

Minwoo is very dear to me but unfortunately to him that means I love putting him in extremely shattering situations. I have shared so many bits and pieces of this two parter on this blog and my talk one because I love it, despite all it's flaws. It contains one of the first scenes I ever visualized for LOOPiN, and the draft of it is SUCH A MESS, so choppy, but there's a nice sentiment here. Made a web weaving about it once, because of course I did.

Greif

An untitled excerpt from my phone's Notes App that would have gone into the first draft of "Dylan, Seungsoo And Dongwook (😨‼️) Commit A Shitton Of Crimes. Kind Of."

The element of grief has been added to Haruki's plot very recently, and was one of the major changes I made to the original story that made me go, "Okay, we need a draft two." I'm kind of lowkey realizing now that I have basically never really Talked about what Haruki's plot entails publicly despite how essential it is to everything, which is kind of funny??? It demands a lot of tws so it's not casual to just mention.

( last one i promise sdjnfsfs ) peace

( Last One I Promise Sdjnfsfs ) Peace

An excerpt of the first draft of (the very vibey titled) 'A Pair Of Rose Tinted, Heart Shaped Sunglasses'.

As Clarice Falcão would say, Hanjae and Haruki were the consequence of a purposeful trainwreck that didn't kill anyone but was almost fatal, which is something that you wouldn't know from this piece alone because here they're fun! Kind of! It's so funny to write Haruki from Hanjae's POV when he was down bad because I always try to sprinkle some signs that Things Are Not Normal and Nothing Is Fine.

In this piece, Haruki's phone goes off all day and everytime he takes a peek at his screen he flirts with Hanjae harder, and I'm just sitting here begging Hanjae to please, please just notice this and think about it for a second, analyse this pattern of behavior, but nooooo he's fucking blushing, like?!?!?! Dude! STAND UP! THIS IS SERIOUS!

BONUS!

let me try with the word wrath and see what comes out! <33

Let Me Try With The Word Wrath And See What Comes Out!

Excerpt from an untitled Notes app on my phone that was meant to go on the first draft of "Oh My God Kwon Dongwook Hiiiiiii".

Less wrath as a quote, more like wrath as a character because man, is this dude filled with mad rage. I name dropped Dongwook like, 2 times, but the amount of chaos this guy causes just by existing is crazy. A true final boss antagonist. I really like how committed he is on being a LOOPiN hater because yeah, these guys did lowkey fundamentally change his brain chemistry and life philosophy. And I also like the fact that he looks like this kskxkxk like this is the dude that punched a teeth out of Seungsoo's mouth AND made J.J jump off a window. Who would have thought.

Unfortunely a lot of the characterization Dongwook has on Draft 1 no longer aligns with my vision of him. I was too soft on this guy. In a way, I think he played me even, because he is so shifty. But no more. I see right trought him now. He is evil and delusional and not even God can save him. Sorry to this man.

So! Here's a cool Dongwook description from LOOPiN Draft 2!
