Below the video of TeSTAR that suddenly appeared, a title was visible.

[TeSTAR – Magic is You]

It was a title that didn’t have special explanations and felt less official.

And above all, seeing TeSTAR standing in animal pajamas, it felt like a cute and small piece of bait like a behind-the-scenes cam.

‘Good~’

Fans clicked play with a moderately happy heart.

Then, an unfamiliar accompaniment began to flow. It was a refreshing and soft medium-tempo MIDI on an electric piano.

And TeSTAR, who was sprawling around the indoor space, got up one by one and formed a formation.

‘…??’

New song? Cover?

Vocals rang out in front of the flustered fans.

-Today I feel good, as if
Something good is about to happen
-If it’s you, everything will be okay
It’s unfamiliar but somehow it’ll be good

A good melody that wasn’t excessive.

And TeSTAR, wearing animal pajamas, jumped into the air once and then started dancing.

The animal ear-shaped cloth on their heads fluttered.

‘…!’

Fans’ shouts began to fill SNS in real time.

-I thought it was reality behind-the-scenes but it’s a new song. Click right now.
-Quickly look at the video on the kids’ account. It’s crazy.
-ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ So cute.

The dance was at a level of difficulty that added cuteness based on basic skills.

However, since they were in animal pajamas and freely made various gestures or movements toward the camera, it didn’t look awkward.

-Reality shines like a dream
In dreams, I dream of a wonderful tomorrow
When I meet you tomorrow
I’ll only talk about twinkling dreams

Cha Yujin, wearing snow leopard pajamas, came out swinging his tail with one hand and humming the verse.

And he sprinkled confetti according to the lyrics.

Seon Ahyun, wearing deer pajamas, appeared amidst that confetti.

-My dreams that don’t close
Make me kick off reality and run
Reality is breathing~ Yeh
YES breathing (breathing!)
Hoo-ha! Hoo-ha!

Whether it was because he was embarrassed by the surrounding cheers or because of the suddenly popping hip-hop arrangement, movements like rhythmic dancing came out of Seon Ahyun, unlike his usual self.

And by this time, fans realized.

‘They’re the lyrics to Magic Boy!’

Words taken from the lyrics of ‘Magic Boy’ were cheerfully reassembled to constitute the feeling of a full day.

And at the same time, everyone thought.

‘It’s Kim Raebin.’

‘This is Kim Raebin.’

It was the impact of the Moon Rabbit competition.

Meanwhile, the song entered the pre-chorus.

-I’ll run breathlessly (Umm~)
Will you smile when you see me?

Park Moondae, wearing white baby puppy pajamas, came to the center and suddenly knelt down.

‘…??’

And he began to imitate Lee Sejin, the center of the ending choreography of Magic Boy.

Of course, it was a gag, but he worked hard.

Fans were doubled over with laughter.

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Intermittent Moondae-gotto status.
-Lee Sejin looks like he’s about to collapse in the back ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Someone quickly make a gif of Moondae’s part. I need to see this periodically.

The part ended with the members lifting Park Moondae back up and suppressing the disturbance.

In the meantime, the lyrics were sweet.

-Even if there’s nothing that doesn’t change
(Even if it’s so)
The magic of this moment
-Maybe it’s YOU~

TeSTAR, who sang the last line of the pre-chorus together, began to perform the choreography wonderfully in the chorus.

Lee Sejin, wearing a black baby bear mask, was the center.

-Today I feel good, as if
Something good is about to happen
(Ooh- yeah!)
-If it’s you, everything will be okay
It’s unfamiliar but somehow it’ll be good

Thanks to the pleasant lyrics and Lee Sejin’s large movements, the chorus was refreshing and stretched out like a cool choreography video.

However, next, Kim Raebin, wearing pink rabbit pajamas, came out.

It was the height of imbalance.

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Raebin is in pink.
-What happened to the Medieval Rabbit?
-But it’s so cute ㅠㅠ Raebin, do everything you want to do ㅠㅠ But let’s get permission.

Holding a carrot pen like a microphone, Kim Raebin hummed a singing rap.

-Life is strange
Lightly kicking my feet and going up
I try walking above the sky
Even if it rains, I don’t know
My life is
-bright, pouring light
All right, you’re right
Today I’m shining

The sight of TeSTAR headbanging like some rock festival while fluttering their animal ears was the highlight.

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-I’m happy that you guys are happy.

The video continued with a composition of a bucket of humor and a spoonful of cool.

But the end was serious, with a slightly embarrassed smile.

-The meeting with you yesterday
Becomes today’s shining dream
And becomes tomorrow’s magic
Yes, the magic is you.

The video ended with TeSTAR holding hands together and bowing.

-ㅠㅠㅠ
-No, you suddenly upload a video like this without notice? You filial sons.
-The quality of life suddenly increased vertically.
-I don’t know who the proposer of animal pajamas is, but please feed them Korean beef.

Fans were as happy as if they would get indigestion from the suddenly dropped new song and video. But at the same time, they had questions.

-But is this a new song?
-It seems like a new song. It doesn’t come up even if I search.
-Heol, is it okay to release a new song this way?
-It hasn’t even been uploaded to music sites;;; Surely the agency didn’t upload it by mistake?
└Crazy

Fans who had experienced the record of an agency that couldn’t work a few times suddenly suffered from anxiety. Because it was a strange thing no matter how they thought about it.

Fortunately, less than half an hour later, a new post was uploaded to TeSTAR’s account.

========================
[From debut to 1st place
This is a small gift from TeSTAR to Loviewers who have gifted us many things. We love you ♡
‘Magic is You’
Soundcloudy : (Link)]
========================

Fans were appalled by the fan song that was released for free in its entirety.

-It was a fan song?!
-Surely you released it for free on Soundcloud as a gift??
-No, guys, I’m so grateful, but please release the audio on music sites… ㅠㅠㅠ Thinking about the year-end awards results, it’s a waste to send it like this at this timing ㅠㅠ
└Even the song is so good that it’s even more of a waste.
-When did you make something like this again? You guys didn’t even seem to have time to sleep.. Still, thanks guys. It’s really cute.

Fans were happy about TeSTAR’s unexpected gift, but they were in pain saying, ‘That’s completely an easy-listening song,’ ‘If it were released on music sites, it would have gone straight up.’

Of course, there were more people soaked in emotion.

-This situation where the singer returns the meme that TeSTAR is magic… so good?
-Humanly, they won’t end it by just uploading this, right..? When we have a concert at the end of the year.. are we going to sing along excitedly to the fan song with more choreography added..? Just imagining it feels the best.
-How did you think of taking the lyrics of the 1st place song and making a fan song ㅠㅠ As expected, Kim Raebin is a genius. Worthy of being the arranger of the 1st place song.
└It might not be Kim Raebin. I saw everyone in TeSTAR listed for the lyrics.
└ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Since it’s transparent whose fan you are, please get out of my account. Bye.
-If it comes out as a b-side in the next album, I’ll definitely buy it.. Praying for a version with the official album art lyrics included.

Anyway, most of the fans were happy, and TeSTAR, monitoring that, was also happy.

“It was worth working even while coming on a trip.”

“I know. We filmed it in a hurry, but it came out well~”

“I like the pajamas.”

Cha Yujin, still wearing snow leopard pajamas, smiled broadly.

Current time 1:30 PM. It was time for the extreme trip to slowly pull out the last content.

‘…Honestly, I didn’t know the production team would do that.’

In fact, from last evening to this morning, all the time was spent on recording the fan song and producing the video.

Because the production team, who were hooked on the fan song production content, set aside time for it.

‘Thanks to that, I ended up roughly finishing what I was going to leave as just a draft.’

Even so, I was thinking of announcing it later, but it seemed the production team even persuaded the company to release it now.

Apparently, they were going to use it for reality show promotion.

Probably a phrase like ‘The production of that fan song’ would appear as a preview for next week. And the actual production would 본격적으로 come out in the week after next… a composition like that.

Anyway, the reaction was good, so everyone’s expressions were bright.

“…Shall we go eat now?”

“Yes.”

We skipped breakfast because of choreography practice. I was hungry.

Fortunately, the production team took us to a nearby delicious restaurant, whether they had a conscience. It was a duck bulgogi restaurant, and I thought we ate almost 3 servings per person.

“Thank you for the meal~”

“It w-was delicious.”

“Park Moondae-ssi, do you happen to have a detailed review?”

“The balance between sweet and spicy was good, and the meat quality was good. And since the rice tasted good, it kept going in. Happy now?”

“Oh~”

And the next activity was…… valley rafting.

“There, you’ll fall! Careful!”

“Uaaa!!”

Splat! The valley water splashed like a water bomb on my face. Even in the midst of that, I had to row.

“Now, now, everyone! If one person makes a mistake, everyone falls into the water! We go while taking care of each other!”

“Ye… Yes!”

Using strength while getting hit by water on a swaying boat was… close to labor.

“Yahoo!”

But some members looked quite excited. Especially Cha Yujin and Ryu Chungwoo.

I didn’t know what kind of fun they were feeling. However, I knew one thing.

‘…Are they telling us to use as many calories as we ate?’

It was a composition that somehow seemed like the company had given a tip.

Without being able to shake off the thought that the duck bulgogi was the culprit, I rowed silently.

“Yes~ That’s how you move your arms~”

It was an experience that reminded me of when I worked part-time at a factory.

* * *

“You’ve worked hard~”

“It’s fun!”

After finishing the rafting, washing up at a nearby facility, and changing clothes, the afternoon had passed quickly. It was slowly time to wrap up the filming.

They continued to set up a place in a nearby scenic spot, and the cameras were set.

“Wow, really…… I’m leaving after using time fruitfully.”

“It was really fun because it felt like we came on a trip among ourselves. Thank you for letting us have a pleasant time.”

Half sincere, half for the broadcast, the members exchanged ending comments while smiling.

“N-Next time… if, t-there’s an opportunity, I’d l-like to go on a t-trip together again.”

However, this side seemed completely sincere.

“I know, let’s try going on a trip among ourselves again.”

“I agree~”

“I’d also like to try going abroad.”

…Wait, were the other guys also just sincere?

“Then we will visit the fans again with a cool image!”

“Until now~ TeSTAR’s Living Together TEST!”

After finishing the set ending comments, the members waved their hands diligently. Of course, I did too.

“Thank you for watching~”

“Let’s meet again!”

The filming ended like that.

“Cut! You’ve worked hard~”

“Yeeeah!!”

“Thank you!”

For now, everyone’s faces were bright because they safely finished another schedule.

It seemed that this filming was also quite fun.

“This place is close to Seoul and good. It would be good to come with family next time.”

“It was okay.”

While listening to Ryu Chungwoo and Lee Sejin talk and returning the microphone installed on my body, a manager suddenly ran up from the side.

“……?”

“Kim Raebin-ah, for a moment…….”

The manager took Kim Raebin to a nearby corner.

And while returning Kim Raebin’s smartphone, which he had set aside because of the water play, he delivered some words in a small voice.

At that moment, Kim Raebin’s complexion turned pale.

“…!”
