[52] Preparation (4)

Japanese variety show <Tomokumi> That was put in without a script

.

Somi felt strangely ignored by the panelists’ tone of voice.

Is this the original Japanese entertainment culture?

She says that there are times when she invites a guest and hits her in the back of the head.

She said, “For a Korean girl group, they work pretty hard.”

“His personal skills are a bit old, but.”

“Still, Crayon-chan is kawaii. hahahaha.”

“…”

In particular, the feeling of being deliberately ignored by one or two panelists.

The manager must have had some intention in deciding to appear.

“The next corner will be a hammer game…”

It was this!

As soon as Somi heard what the MC said, she admired the manager’s deep wisdom.

A one-dimensional gag of hitting, falling, and teasing.

Aren’t Japanese pranks a bit simplistic?

Maybe they wanted to show the true education of a first-class physics girl group in Japan as well.

“Ah, I can’t play a hammer game with a girl group.”

“Right. It rang at AKT 48 last time.”

“I’m sorry for bothering only the weaker ones…”

Somi listened to what the old Japanese people said and sharpened her sword internally.

“Juhee unnie, hit me as hard as you can.”

“At most? People die.”

“Our manager ordered it.”

“Oh! Really?”

You’re sending signals with your eyes over there.

He nodded while scratching the back of his head.

“Yes. It’s true.”

“Ok K.”

Dduk, Dduk-

Soon, Yang Joo-hee bent her knuckles and stood up.

‘Those guys…’

They seem to think of it as just an exercise concept.

He’s too serious about health to do that.

Soon after, the panelists came out in turn and played a game with Yang Joo-hee.

“Ah, I lost. Then I’ll be hit first…”

Pak-!!

What is it, it sounds like being hit with a real hammer, not a hammer.

“Hey, did you pass out?”

“Are you kidding me?”

“… Next.”

Soon after, the panel who came to his senses grabbed his head and shouted.

“Uso! That’s not a hammer!”

“Pump hammer death.”

“…”

There is silence for a moment,

Soon, the MC and the panel burst into laughter together.

“Wahhahahahaha. That’s right, Mr. Tanaka!”

“Wow, this is Honmono!”

“Are you really a girl group?”

While shivering in fear, the men come to hit Yang Joo-hee with a mallet.

Masters of Japanese body gags.

It was like a fish out of water.

Thanks to the panels who sublimate the intense pain into a gag, the atmosphere of the broadcast was further revived.

“Solar members are honest.”

“It’s really attractive.”

“The best among K-pop idols!”

Somi looked at someone after seeing the reaction of the panelists.

‘As expected, manager.’

From the beginning, this was all team leader Jeong Su-ho’s plan.

How did you analyze and plan the Japanese entertainment industry?

‘You expected everything!’

The panelists who received one-shot true education became docile cats.

Before the most important corner, the panels were arranged.

“You say you’re releasing a new song in Korea soon?”

“Yes! It’s called Sunrise And Sunset!”

“Oh, then I can’t help but listen.”

Soon after, the Solar members rushed down and prepared for the stage.

New song <SAS>

Promotion time.

The reaction of the panelists was very enthusiastic.

All the panelists who received character education (physics) used ‘ssgoi’ together.

The stage of a new song announced for the first time externally.

It was a short time, less than a minute.

“As expected, K-pop girl groups dance intensely!”

“Yes. The point of this choreography is the cat dance…”

Somi diligently promoted the song with her fluent Japanese skills.

“Wow, if we go on air, it will be after we’ve already made a comeback, right?”

“Yes. It will be announced simultaneously in both Korea and Japan!”

“Oh, it’s an honor!”

How far did Manager Jeong Su-ho expect?

Will it end with entering the Japanese entertainment industry?

Or maybe it’s some other overseas activity.

‘Just do what you’re told…’

Wouldn’t it be possible to go to the US someday?

* * *

After all, people tend to be nice when they’re right.

How nervous she was whenever Eunseo got angry in the middle.

I think it’s more because I shake my hands whenever I get angry.

‘Still…’

After being hit by Joo-hee, the shooting atmosphere improved.

If the atmosphere is good during filming, the broadcasts are usually selected well.

At that time, a woman watching Solar outside the set came into her eyes.

‘What is that person…?’

A Westerner with a crazy fashion sense that would be popular in the 22nd century.

Maybe because of the strange clothes, the back of the head was itching.

“Hello.”

“Oh?”

Fortunately, the other country seemed to speak English as well.

“I was just curious about what you were doing, so I started talking to you.”

“Who are you…”

“Oh, I’m Solar Manager.”

“Ohh, those girls!?”

“Yeah.”

Fortunately, he seems to have a good opinion of the Solar members.

“I’m Sakura, a fashion designer. I sometimes coordinate the panel members at Tomokumi.”

“Aha.”

I’m not familiar with fashion, but it was clear that it was unusual.

“Is this the avant-garde or something?”

“Oh, you must like fashion!”

“… That’s right.”

Honestly, if it was like the old days, I wouldn’t have been inspired at all.

I feel like I can’t miss the tickle on the back of my head.

“What if the Solar members also wore more flashy clothes?”

“Um, well.”

In Korea, now is the right time.

“Anyway, manager. I have work to do, so then.”

“Wait.”

I grabbed the woman who was about to leave with a greeting.

“Sakura-san, please give me a business card.”

“I don’t have a business card.”

“Then I’ll give you a business card. Contact me later.”

“Really?”

The other party smiled broadly and continued the conversation.

“I’m a freelancer… The staff doesn’t even care about me.”

“hahahaha, the fashion is too flashy for that.”

It doesn’t mean it’s good, but it means it’s unique.

“Then I’ll be sure to contact you later!”

“Yes. Please feel free to contact me.”

A designer who receives a business card and disappears with a smile.

Soon after, Umjiyu sneaked up to me and started talking to me.

“Brother, do you know someone?”

“No.”

“But why?”

“Just.”

There was no reason.

It’s just that the fashion has gone up and it’s unique.

It was because the back of my head was tickling.

“What is it, fresh?”

You’ll find out later.

Will my dungchok win again?

“Thank you for your effort!”

“Good work everyone.”

“Good job!”

After filming, the members greet the staff.

JiU and I immediately packed the members and moved to the dorm.

“Guys, let’s go.”

“Yes!”

Filming for a Japanese variety show has ended, but the reality show <Solar Beam> Is still

Filming wasn’t over.

It’s a broadcast that was filmed with the concept of fan service in the first place.

Even small scenes such as hot springs and fireworks became paintings.

“Guys, gather together.”

The members were notified of the remaining schedule.

“I’ll play a simple game when the Luna members come later.”

“Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve seen Sia unnie.”

“I like Shia unnie because she’s cool.”

“He never shivered even when he was filming Top Idol.”

“That’s right.”

I smiled and overheard the members’ conversation.

Before releasing a song that I had been working hard on for the past few months.

It was the last healing time to spend ahead of the comeback.

“Jiyu, we’ll be busier now too.”

“… You were always busy?”

“That’s right.”

Soon, the members arrived at the dorm and started filming.

After sneakily checking the figure, he said to Jiyu.

“Jiyu, let’s have a drink later in the evening.”

“Yes. Good.”

I should take care of the members, but it’s still a trip.

“We also need to heal a little bit.”

“That’s it.”

Jiyu also had a hard time while working as a gold spoon.

It seems that now is the time for her to find an additional manager.

“Oppa, but I think there are people from our company in the solar fan cafe.”

“Officials?”

“Yeah. I just knew the inside information of the company.”

“…”

That’s you

If you inform your brother, that becomes information.

“Well, it’s not serious, is it?”

“Yeah. I knew about it a day before the announcement.”

“Aha.”

Uhm Jae-ha knows how to push and pull.

“Because I spray it on reporters for about a day in advance.”

“Is that so?”

“Let’s just do that.”

“Mmm.”

Anyway, I suddenly remembered the person who gave me the business card at the set.

‘It just looked normal…’

Was the designer’s name Sakura?

Why did the back of my head tickle when I saw that person?

“Oppa, I was supposed to help the unnies filming.”

“Uh. Then go.”

“Oki. Have a drink later.”

“Yes.”

The peaceful night spent in Japan has come to an end.

* * *

After finishing the schedule in Japan,

Upon arriving at Incheon International Airport, the members were surrounded by a large crowd.

Unlike when I went to Japan, I couldn’t hide information when I returned.

“Waaa—!!”

“Yeji noona!!!”

“Eunseo! Look here!”

“Somi-chan!”

As expected, Solar’s popularity in Korea was at the top among girl groups.

“Chief Park, are you here?”

“Suho, you worked hard.”

The chief who brought bodyguards and team members.

We cleared the way while protecting the Solar members.

“Manager, are you okay?”

The road that becomes a human barricade and moves to the van.

Meanwhile, Yeji kept talking to me.

“Can I wipe your sweat?”

“No.”

“Then would you like some water?”

“No.”

“Then…”

Please just be quiet

“We’re just there. Everybody get in the van.”

“Yes!”

The work environment is good, but the popularity of Solar is at the level of a large company.

Managing fans and members was the responsibility of the staff.

“Whoa…”

That’s why I’m trying to move to a dream agency.

It’s not something that can be done with just one or two managers.

“Suho, see you at the office.”

“Yes. Manager.”

I checked the disappearing team members and climbed into the auxiliary seat.

It must have been since the head of the 1st Division flew away not too long ago.

One after another, the labor shortage has worsened.

‘I wish I had one more Solar Lord.’

There was a need to quickly fill the workforce.

Because the job posting has been posted.

“Jiyu, drive.”

“Okay.”

“It’s not long before the comeback.”

“Yes. So.”

Solar’s comeback showcase stage has entered the countdown.

At the time of her comeback, her most powerful girl group would be Friends Entertainment.

Tok, tok-

I checked the hot news on my smartphone.

[Friends Enter, 9-member girl group <Flip Nine>

Her debut is imminent

‘I guess they’re going to debut as nine people after all.’

The name ‘Dorahee’ in the names in the article.

Among the nine, he is also the visual center.

“It’s going to be a hard road.”

“Huh? Who?”

In fact, I was worried that I had done something wrong when I told you.

“Flip Nine, a new girl group from Friends Entertainment.”

“Oh, there.”

Because my shit point is science.

Let’s see what happens if you don’t believe in science.

“Why is Flip Nine? Reporters say it’s a jackpot.”

“It’s always like that when a rookie comes out of a large entertainment company.”

Every time, they talked about turning the tide of the 4th generation girl group.

Solar’s reaction was mediocre, but now she’s at the top.

“Oppa, but Flip Nine will be popular.”

“Well.”

If it wasn’t for the dungchok, I would have been nervous too.

As long as there was a member named Do Ra-hee, there was no way.

“I’m not even going to reach Solar’s toes.”

“Wow!”

Then, someone’s voice came from behind.

“Manager!”

“Yes?”

Yeji said to me with bright eyes.

“Do you think our song will be popular?”

“Uh. Certainly.”

A boy group that turned a small entertainment company, Friends Entertainment, into a large company in one fell swoop.

That exhilarating sensation she felt when she first heard the title track of her second album, ‘High End’.

“As soon as I heard the finished version of this new song, I was immediately excited.”

“How does it feel?”

“The scent of jackpot.”

“Oh oh…!”

Yes, this is the sure belief that it will surely fail.

Now it was a 100% pure dungchok that had hardened like faith.

“SAS wins.”

Although the title is a bit dickish.

* * *

A few days later,

Girl group Luna’s comeback schedule has been counted down.

After a while, he was scheduled to make a comeback 15 days earlier than Solar.

It was clearly confirmed.

Until just a few days ago.

Drooling-

I knocked on the knock and opened the door to the office.

“Chief, are you saying we should postpone Luna’s comeback?”

“I can’t help it.”

“Why?”

There was a reason why Luna made a comeback before Solar.

Because our company’s Luna can’t be buried because of Solar.

“The head of the public relations team said it couldn’t be done.”

“…”

What does it mean to delay a comeback rather than Solar?

I didn’t know if I should delay at least a month, maybe two months.

It’s October now, and of course you’ll be excluded from various year-end stages.

“Friends Enter, the reaction of the new girl group is stronger than expected.”

“… Flip Nine’s debut?”

“Yes. That.”

Debut trailer on Youtube.

You could have guessed it just by looking at the number of views.

“It’s much hotter than when Solar debuted.”

“You don’t know yet.”

“No, to be honest, the reaction was so good that it couldn’t even be compared to when I debuted as a solo artist.”

“… I’ll tell the PR manager well.”

“Yes. I’m going to be in the practice room with Luna right now.”

“All right.”

I immediately left the director’s room and headed for the practice room.

‘Flip Nine is…’

I knew why other people were so afraid.

Luna will be buried even if Solar achieves as good as her debut performance.

“Anyway, since that’s how you guys…”

“Chief Hong Mi-young.”

“Ah, Chief Jung Soo-ho! It just went well.”

“…”

I think you know what you’re trying to say.

“Did you see the announcement? This is the level of how to do it with marketing…”

“Luna will make a comeback on schedule.”

“Yes? What do you mean by that?”

“It is literally.”

PR team leader from Dream Agency.

From the beginning, he was stubborn and had a personality that only believed in his own abilities.

It’s not like I was demoted, I came here to build a career.

“I also believe in the skills of team leader Jung Soo-ho. My opponent is Friends Enter.”

“You mean Luna is ruined because of Flip Nine.”

“That’s.”

The blind man from the PR team glanced at Luna and her members before continuing.

“Whoa… Yes. Honestly, I’m sure I’ll be buried no matter what.”

“Luna is good at singing too. It will never be buried!”

“Ehh, you know very well that it’s not the bottom to succeed with singing.”

“I know that too.”

If I don’t trust my deep-rooted dungchog, who will I trust?

“I can take responsibility for my words. What would you bet the PR manager?”

“What do you want?”

“A new member of the PR team, TO.”

“It’s not that important right now…”

“… Is it scary?”

If you’re scared, you’re going to die.

“Call!”
