Sixth Ghost Story - Songs Banned from the College Scholastic Ability Test (2)
Finally, an hour that felt like a day passed.
Ding dong ding dong~♬
The 30 or so students in my class hurriedly rushed out of the music room without anyone taking notice..
After leaving the hallway in the crowded procession, I quickly went up to Suna and asked her..
“Seonya, it’s okay.?”
“ Ugh······
Sunah still looked scared..
“He's a strange teacher, isn't he?.”
Sunah nodded silently..
“4Since we're on the floor, let's take a break in the club room..”
“okay……
This is the 4th floor, the club room is the 5th floor.
I don't think it would be a bad idea to take a break to comfort Seon-ah..
Gyeongwon and Hayun naturally appear in the back.
I see Les following me.
“Atamaittenjanai~ What happened to that teacher’s hair?~?”
Deokhoon also followed us, wiping away his cold sweat..
The five of us entered the club room, sat down on the chairs, and sighed..
The break was only 10 minutes, so it didn't last long, but it still gave me time to compose myself..
We were nervous, as if we were sitting on thorn cushions, with the teacher muttering song lyrics blankly throughout class..
As I sat in the club room, which felt like a sanctuary for my mind, I felt my mind calming down a bit..
“Kutso, it seems like the club room has gotten a little bigger..”
“It's an illusion. By the way, what is it really, that teacher?.”
“I was scared……
Seon-ah muttered, then immediately raised her head and said:.
“Thank you for your help, Hayoona..”
“are you okay.”
Hayun answered as if nothing had happened..
Even though these two were partners, they didn't seem friendly at all, but now they seemed to be starting to talk a bit..
I comforted Seon-ah, who was cowering, as much as I could..
“He might have some mental problems..”
“huh.”
“don't mind. Something will work out soon. Take a break from school for a while, or something. All 30 students in the class watched this for an hour..”
“The phone in the school office will probably be busy with parents today..”
“That's right.”
When I countered Gyeongwon's words, he suddenly looked at me as if he had something to say..
“Hey, manager. Now that I think about it.”
“huh? What is it?”
“I thought of this because we are a ghost story club..”
Kyungwon raised his glasses..
“That song. It is said that there are more than one person in the country who are currently addicted..”
“It's popular?”
“No, no. really addicted.”
His glasses shine.
“Do you know the songs called Ring Ding Dong, Am Yo Man, or Jin Jin Jara that were popular in the past? Once I heard it, it always lingered in my ear, so I jokingly called it a song banned from college entrance exams..”
“Of course I remember. I was an elementary school student at the time, and everyone sang it to me at school..”
“In the case of the popular song 'Oh Yeah', it is said that the situation is much more serious than that..”
Kyungwon explained that the current situation in the music industry surrounding this song is unusual..
The debut song 'Oh yeah' by this girl group called 'Porincess' is a song with a bright and cheerful atmosphere, and the refrain that starts with "Oh yeah~" is addictive and catchy, so it is receiving a lot of love..
It is also ranked first in the real-time rankings of music charts, and thanks to this song, the new idol girl group Porincess was able to rise from a low-key idol to a famous girl group in one go..
‘Up to this point, it's the same as I remember, but then it gets weird..’
The problem is that it is now ‘too’ popular than you can imagine..
Convenience stores, large supermarkets, restaurants, cosmetics stores, etc., were playing this song wherever they went on the streets, and famous brands were already featuring this girl group and even making a splash with only the lyrics changed, literally shaking the nation..
The current Internet situation is that all kinds of YouTubers remix this song, sing along, dance to it, and even appear as BGM in completely unrelated videos..
Many people who listened to this song too many said that it was difficult because the chorus lingered in their ears even when they were not listening to the song..
“It's called the earworm phenomenon, and it's addictive.
This is a phenomenon where a strong melody lingers in your head without leaving it. In severe cases, you may even experience auditory hallucinations..”
I, too, have had a hard time humming to commercial advertisement melodies when I was supposed to be concentrating, and it seems like this phenomenon is happening widely across the country right now..
“So, in the case of today’s music teacher, does that seem a bit extreme??”
“That could be seen as such. You're older, and people who make music are generally sensitive..”
I listened to Gyeongwon’s explanation, thought about it carefully, and then asked the members..
“Is there anyone who is listening to this song a lot these days??”
Seon-ah and Deok-hoon shake their heads..
“I've never heard of it……
“It's not my field.”
Seon- ah is poor and a homebody, so she had no access to popular music, and Deok-hoon also listens to Japanese songs, so Korean idols seem to take a backseat..
“Hayoon is?”
“I don't listen to that song either..”
“Kyungwon, you are?”
“I've heard of it... I guess I'm not the type of person who enjoys things like singing. It's all I've heard as background music on YouTube a few times..”
“good.”
I gave a request to the members with a serious expression..
“I think it would be best to avoid that song altogether starting today..”
“why‘?”
Suna asks curiously..
“It's just a feeling.”
When I declared, everyone except Deokhoon nodded with a meaningful expression.
It was thanks.
Seon-ah, Gyeong-won, and Hayun experience ghost stories in their dreams together and become more open to such situations..
“Now let's go down. Break time is over.”
“okay……
“Huh huh huh. Do I have to go to the first floor again?
I warned you to be careful with this song for three reasons..
First, this song wasn't such an explosive trend in the time I lived..
Although it was popular, it was quickly buried as usual with hook songs that emphasize simple repetitive melodies..
Second, the lyrics of the song are different..
I don't remember the details, but in my past life, this song felt like a repetition of appropriate chuims, and it wasn't a song with strange foreign words mixed in..
Thirdly, people's appeal that this song told by Gyeongwon cannot leave their ears..
As a result, my warning to the members was correct..

[2019Friday, March 22,, 07: 05]
[Lee Jun - 2nd episode]
[ghost story point : 12]
[causality : 9%]
A week later, Friday again.
As I was getting ready for school and eating breakfast, the news was playing on the TV screen that my parents had turned on..
[This is breaking news. Do you know the song ‘Oh Woo Ye’ by the idol girl group Porincess? It is a popular song featuring an addictive melody that is currently taking the nation by storm. The problem is that this song is so addictive that people are complaining that they are having difficulties making a living..]
[On Friday the 21st, the Seoul Southern District Court issued a provisional injunction banning the broadcast of commercials and music programs containing the melody of this song 'Oh Woo Ye'. If this song is not removed, it will be difficult for the program to be aired on time..]
[The agency responded by saying it was absurd. In fact, it is unusual in the history of popular music for a song to be banned from airing because it is so addictive.…….]
“Jun, you too be careful. My mom is also stressed because that song is lingering in her ears all day. phew~”
My mother complained while rubbing the fish..
Our family is a two-income family, so my mother works part-time as a supermarket cashier, and it seems like she's having a hard time listening to that song all day at the store.
all.
I nodded, got ready for school, and left the house..
Exactly one week since the last strange incident with the music teacher..
The world has changed a lot during that time..
Oh yeah ♬ Oh yeah♬
In front of the crosswalk heading to school.
Among the moving cars, particularly noisy trucks caught my eye..
Oooh ♬ Oooh ♬ Eshhh ♬ Tum! Etum! Cudabri~ Poem♬
It was a truck that looked like something you would see on an election campaign vehicle, and it was speeding down the street playing loud music with large speakers attached..
I hummed another song in my head to try not to focus on the melody as much as possible..
‘Yeah, it might not be that easy~ This is the world that allowed me~♬’
Students waiting for the traffic light
Staring at that truck.
These days, there are many people like that truck driver who commit incomprehensible acts..
Don't you sing Porincess's new song 'Oh Woo Ye' loudly alone on the street, or in the subway you turn your phone to maximum volume and repeat the chorus part endlessly?.
In the apartment complex where I live, there were constant noise complaints between floors due to houses playing that song repeatedly so that the TV rang throughout the house..
“The world is going crazy.”
I muttered and headed to school..
“Now, you know that strange songs have been making me queasy lately, right? I believe that everyone in my class will stop listening to songs like that and focus on their studies. Oh ho ho ho~”
During morning assembly, my homeroom teacher gave me a warning with that strange nasal tone..
However, the homeroom teacher's warning was in vain and the incident occurred before lunch was served..
“Oh, fuck. I really need you to turn off the song!”
3Kyoshi, music time is back again.
But the music teacher is in a hospital, possibly a mental hospital, so
Lee was studying on his own in the classroom..
A sensitive-looking male student in the class suddenly stood up and shouted that..
“Who, who is it! Who keeps singing? Fuck! I can't concentrate!”
The male student was trembling and staring into space..
While everyone was quietly looking at the boy, a handsome man with broad shoulders sitting next to Gyeongwon turned around and said to the boy..
“Hey, come to your senses..”
A heavy and authoritative voice. This is class president Hoon, who was voted overwhelmingly first in this week's class president election..
“Si... it's noisy. Keep playing the song... huh?”
The sensitive-looking boy was still shaking and looked around the quiet classroom..
“who… who is this? The teacher said today… You said it. Stop playing that song, please turn it off... please……
The class president stood up, looking at the male student who was shaking like an aspen tree..
“Hey, come to your senses..”
The class president's broad shoulders and strong muscles were reflected in the fit of the school uniform..
If the class president, who showed off such a masculine force, gave a warning, he might have flinched, but the boy, who was still sensitive, just shook his head..
“Please turn off the song. please… I haven't been able to sleep a wink since yesterday because of that. please……
“hey! Stop it-”
The moment the class leader shouts.
[Ah, an announcement from the broadcasting room. This is an important issue, so please listen carefully..]
Suddenly the school broadcast rang out..
It is the voice of one of the male senior members of the broadcasting club who was usually in charge of the school broadcast..
[I inform you once again. This is an important issue, so I hope everyone will listen carefully from now on. Let's get started. Oh oh oh ♬ Oh yeah ♬ Ash A♬]
Suddenly, a loud song began to echo through the school broadcasting station..
A girl to a loud and monotonous melody
Idol’s quacking voice.
It's the refrain of that song.
[Term! Etum! Cudabri~si♬ Oh yeah ♬]
I was dumbfounded for a moment and wondered if I was hallucinating too, but looking at the agitated expressions on the other students' faces, I guessed it was real..
[Ah, here's another announcement from the broadcasting room. This is a very important issue. Please listen and listen again carefully.
yo. this. Oh oh oh ♬ Oh yeah ♬ Ash ♬ Tum! Etum! Cudabri~ Si♬ Oi Oooh♬ Oooh Yeah♬ Eshhh♬ Tum! E Tum! Cudabri~ Poem♬]
“ Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ! ”
At that moment, a sensitive male student took out a pencil from his pencil case and started swinging it randomly behind his back..
“Turn it off! please! Please turn off that song~!”
[Oh oh oh ♬ oh oh yeah♬]
Hwiik - Hwiik-
“Shut up, jebaaaaal!”
“Wow, what! I guess I'm crazy!”
Students nearby dispersed in surprise..
Deokhoon next to me, who was engrossed in a Japanese song while wearing earphones, also opened his eyes wide and saw the scene..
But that wasn't the end of the commotion..
“Uh, huh, huh! Ugh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh~!”
A gloomy male student in the very back seat suddenly laughed loudly and threw his desk over his head.
I got up and got up..
“Ugh~! Ughhhhh~!”
Just like that, the boy started stomping around the classroom, knocking over all the desks..
Udangtang-
“hey! What the fuck! Someone stop that bastard!”
“Uh huh huh, huh huh”
[Listen carefully. Oh oh oh ♬ oh oh yeah ♬]
“Turn it off! Turn off the song
oh~!”
“Wow! run away!”
“Uh huh huh, huh huh huh!!!”
Boom boom, boom boom. wajangchang.
The classroom was a complete mess..
Students in my class fell over while trying to avoid a crazy student who was swinging a mechanical pencil behind their backs, and another male student ran in between them, flipping over his desk..
Even the class president, who exuded the so-called ‘tough guy’ charisma, seems flustered in this situation..
“Deokhoon!”
I patted Deokhoon's large fleshy body as he opened his mouth in surprise..
“Wow~?”
“Let’s escape to the club room, quickly.!”
“yoshi!”
We quickly got up and headed to the classroom door..
“hey! calm down! Put that thing down, you new bastard.!”
“Shut up, turn off the song! Zebaah Aal!”
The male student is still swinging the sharp sharpener dangerously..
The class leader desperately tried to sort out the situation.
I tried, but it only became more chaotic..
[Did you listen to the song well? If there is a student who didn't hear it, I'll listen to it one more time, so please listen carefully. Oh oh oh ♬ Oh yeah ♬ Esshh ♬ Tum! term!♬]
I passed by the students in my class who had fallen in shock and headed toward Suna and Hayun..
Seon-ah is frozen, and Hayun is looking at the scene with an expressionless expression..
“Guys! To the club room!”
“Ugh... YesI”
The refrain is still blaring loudly through the school broadcasting system..
Some of the other students in the class seemed to be slowly going crazy, pulling out their hair or standing up on their desks out of nowhere and flapping around..
Leaving behind the frantic screams, Seon-a, Hayun, and Deok-hoon left the classroom door, and Gyeong-won saw it too late and quickly followed the members..
As I was about to leave the class, I suddenly turned around and approached Jinhee, who was looking like she had just woken up in the back seat..
This girl is also a member of our team, we can't just leave her alone..
“Jinhee!”
Jinhee looks at me with sullen eyes.
“Let’s go to our club room! hurry!”
She was half asleep and had an irritated expression on her face, but surprisingly she obediently stood up and started following me..
When I left the classroom door, the other four had gone to the club room first, so I couldn't see them..
The hallway was a complete mess..
Students going crazy in other classes
Everyone was standing in the hallway, muttering, and some people were seen having fits and rolling on the floor..
[Okay, since it's important, I'll broadcast it one more time. Please listen carefully.]
“아, 개새끼! It's so fucking loud!”
Jinhee was irritated and spat out a harsh curse..
Regardless of the students' cries, the broadcast silently played the refrain again..
Oh yeah ♬
The girl group's pretty voice echoed through the hallway..
Jinhee and I hurried up the stairs..
2When I got up to the floor, I saw teachers crowding in front of the broadcast room and knocking on the door..
“Some guy is joking! Open the door quickly!”
An older teacher got angry and kicked the broadcasting room, but
There is no response as if it was locked..
5There was chaos even on the way up to the floor..
“Argh! This bastard bit my arm!”
“Oh yeah! Oh yeah! oh yeah~”
“Shut up, fuck off.”
“Heh, heh.”
5As I climbed the stairs to the floor, I was panting as if I had completely lost my stamina..
Jinhee went ahead of me and opened the club room door, making sure she was okay..
“Juna!”
Sunah sits down with a worried face.
I jumped up and stood up..
“Everyone arrived safely..”
“Ugh… are you okay?”
“are you okay. Except that it was difficult to climb the stairs..”
When the club room door was closed, the loud broadcasts and noise became a little quieter..
I stood in an awkward position and took a breath..
Jinhee also chooses a suitable seat and sits down..
“Hmm, let's see.”
As I muttered that, I felt the eyes of the members turning towards me..
‘What is it, suddenly.’
Now that I think about it, the location where I am standing happens to be in front of the whiteboard..
And the five members sitting.
This picture looks like a manager giving instructions to his subordinates..
Sunah, Gyeongwon, Hayun, Deokhoon, Jinhee.
Five people are sitting in their seats and only looking at me, the manager..
Is this perhaps the right time for me to sort out the situation?.
“Hehehe.”
I turned my back and cleared my throat..
It's 11 o'clock in the morning now.
Originally, we would have gathered like this after lunch and during CA time..
It just so happened that the place I ran away to was the club room..
The bright gaze of the members stings me..
I feel comfortable being alone. I have always been on the outside when it comes to human relationships..
The role of leading others is still awkward..
‘There's nothing you can do because the situation is the way it is..’
I took out a marker in front of the whiteboard and said,.
“Can everyone please look here??”
There are still two hours left in CA time..
The ghost story club started its activities a little early..
