An Agency That Attracts Genius Trainees

It was then.

A camera and a microphone appeared out of nowhere in front of the two.

A lively voice appeared in a place where there was only tension and whispered stories.

“Hello! I am Yuna from U & Na!”

“I am Arin.”

Yuanna, the signboard of WH and a role model for many aspiring singers, appeared.

“Oh, hello.”

“and.”

Unlike Seoyoung, who managed to come to her senses and answer, Hannah had no choice but to keep her mouth open.

I am Han Na-young, who dreams of becoming an actress.

It was like Yuna, a monster actress who showed great acting in ＜Chasing to the End＞, appeared in front of Han Na-young.

There was one more fact that shocked Han Na-young.

It was because of Yuna’s self-luminous beauty that the expression dazzling was appropriate.

I knew that Yuna was classified as one of the top actresses, but I was shocked to see her in real life.

Even Hannah and Seoyoung were the first people to talk to them as soon as they appeared, and even those waiting around showed signs of surprise like Hannah.

Yuna burst into laughter at such a reaction and suddenly asked a question.

“ruler. You applied to WH to fulfill your dream of becoming a singer. What song did our juniors prepare?”

It was a high-tension process, but Seoyoung was not taken aback.

It’s because I’ve been watching all the weekly WH while applying for WH.

“I want to become a singer like Yuanna sunbaenim who is in front of me. That’s why I prepared the song ＜Forgetting＞.”

“oh! Did you hear Arin unnie too? Now, there are juniors who want to be like us.”

“I want you to come in and show all your skills without being nervous.”

After that, Yuanna, who asked two more questions, moved on to the next hitter.

“and. I saw Uanna in person for the first time.”

“me too. But Yuna is really crazy.”

Would a different expression be needed?

“Seoyoung.”

“huh?”

“Let’s try hard.”

“uh? uhh yes.”

Seoyoung was taken aback by Hannah’s sudden change of eyes, but soon nodded as if she understood.

Han Na-young looked at Uanna, who was interviewing the next participant.

To be precise, Yuna from U & Na.

*

Me at the audition, vocal trainer Jiyoung Lee. And choreographer Cheian. In this way, three people sat as interviewers.

“Coming to the audition as an interviewer makes it clear that WH is definitely no joke.”

In particular, Lee Ji-young was still young, but she couldn’t stop admiring the level of the audition participants.

Although the current level is also the level. He said he saw quite a few friends with potential for future growth, and he was smiling with satisfaction from earlier.

“I was really surprised too. Normally, kids of this age would go to a large agency unconditionally.”

“It would mean that WH has grown that much.”

Listening to the conversation between Lee Ji-young and Cheian, I went through the evaluations of my friends who had taken the audition so far.

The scoring results of Lee Ji-young and Cheian were different from mine.

If those two were divided into four grades of S, A, B, and C.

Because I was grading in detail with numbers from 0 to 100.

In addition, I was taking notes on which fields I had outstanding talents in.

Unfortunately, so far, there have been no applicants with brilliant talents that are blinding.

“CEO. Come to think of it, how many final trainees did you say you were thinking of this time?”

Cheian suddenly asked as if he was curious.

Although I asked for help as an interviewer. Because I haven’t said how many people will be selected in the final yet.

Since they are the teachers who will be in charge of singing and dancing for the trainees, they were about to call Ji-Young and Chaian as interviewers.

If I vaguely sit alone and evaluate everything, strange eyes will be directed at me again.

“Current thinking is that the final selection will be between four and six.”

Was my answer surprising?

Cheian continued as if he was curious.

“Aren’t you going in a survival style like other agencies?”

Existing agencies brought in several trainees and took periodic evaluations.

The final person who passed all the tests could be included as a member of the group.

Those reasons are understandable.

You won’t know how much potential your young friends have until they grow up and show it.

It’s okay when you’re young with low potency, but as you grow up, there will be some who stop.

There must have been some who belatedly developed their talents and became the center of the group.

“yes. We are trying to debut our kids in a slightly different way than other agencies.”

but i was fine

Why?

Because I can see the talent the other person has in my eyes.

Even with such a fraudulent ability, there is no need to go the same way as others.

However, there is one reason why the number of people was not fixed from the beginning.

If you become crooked as you grow, then you will have to let them out.

“First of all, I plan to select those who passed the first round by referring to the grades evaluated by the directors and the scores I evaluated.”

It doesn’t end there.

“Next, we plan to select the second successful applicants after checking the individual personalities and reputations of those who passed the first round.”

“also. The CEO always sees that as a top priority.”

Lee Ji-young nodded as if she knew that.

In the past, before starting WH, due to a personality problem, I had to turn over the kids who were about to debut at the time.

In order not to repeat such a thing, you should definitely check it out and move on.

If there were school violence or personality issues, it would not end with the trainee’s individual problems.

It may tarnish the image of WH currently being shown to broadcasters and people.

Such things should be prevented in advance.

“I have a lot of friends waiting for me, so I will continue.”

Seeing Lee Ji-young and Chaian nodding at my words, I called the next applicant.

After a while.

After all the auditions prepared for today were over, Lee Ji-young exclaimed as she checked the score sheet.

“It’s amazing. I saw a lot of people today. You mean you have to see this much more tomorrow?”

“yes. How was your overall view today?”

hmm. After thinking for a while, Chaian brought out these words.

“I felt it was of a high standard overall. I also thought that some of my friends would become pretty good singers if I taught them well.”

“I did too. First of all, I’m not sure because I’m still young, but I thought that quite a lot of talented friends came.”

Listening to the two people’s answers, I took out two profiles.

“How were these two friends?”

In my opinion, Lee Ji-young and Cheian Ah! and burst into exclamations.

It seems that I remember it precisely because of the situation that happened at the audition earlier.

“That friend named Yoo Seo-young is definitely talented. The current level is good, and there is potential for future growth.”

“that’s right. Despite my young age, I felt that my voice was solid. but.”

Lee Ji-young and Cheian’s evaluation of Yoo Seo-young was good.

Even if you look at it objectively, he was a friend who was perfect for an idol.

However, there were some negative reviews about Han Na-young, who came in with her.

“Hannah, this friend was a little sad. Seeing the staff getting tangled up and falling along the way, you know that you don’t have enough practice.”

“The tone is nice. You have to teach vocalization once before you can give an accurate evaluation.”

Yoo Seo-young has an S grade respectively. And Hannah had a little regretful evaluation written on it.

“First of all, as the directors said, Yoo Seo-young was a friend who could be picked up even if I went to a large agency right away.”

“that’s right. However, I was a bit disappointed with a friend named Nayoung Hannah who came in with me. I thought someone would come to mind.”

“It was like looking at Yuna, right? To be precise, Yuna in the early days. The only difference is that there is no vocal practice?”

At Lee Ji-young’s words, Chaian also nodded as if he remembered.

“Right. Yuna creaks a little, but her body is quite soft. I think I can pull off the choreography well. It’s a pity that the amount of practice is lacking.”

As expected, they were Lee Ji-young and Cheian, who had outstanding talents in teaching.

Because you have accurately identified the problems you are having right now.

“Did they say their names were Hannah and Yoo Seoyoung?”

“yes. CEO, these guys have a story that you like, and I think it’s pretty good. How did the CEO see you?”

At Lee Ji-young’s words, Chaian also looked at me curiously.

how did you see

“I also noticed those two friends.”

And at my next words, Lee Ji-young and Cheian are startled.

“Especially from her friend Han Na-young, I got the feeling that she could become the second Yuna.”

I also showed the graded score to Lee Ji-young and Cheian.

“Did CEO rate Hanna-young higher than Yoo Seo-young?”

Hannah was much more dazzling.

“this. Anyone else would have dismissed it as bullsh*t. Since it’s the CEO’s evaluation, I’m looking forward to it again.”

When two friends came in earlier.

Looking at the talents these two have, I just thought this.

“When I saw those two friends today, it was like seeing a second Arin and Yuna.”

Of course, it felt a little different.

Uanna was the best match for a vocal duo.

Those two friends are the perfect friends for the idol group WH is trying to make.

However, they were similar in that they were friends who supported each other and each had their own brilliant talents.

this.

Arin and Yuna have been confirmed as mentoring teachers.

If I meet the two of them, I think a pretty good picture will be drawn.

“I’m looking forward to it.”

＜ Episode 144 ＞ End

＜ Episode 145 ＞

When I met Yuna recently, Arin was always with her.

There were parts I intended, but in reality, there were many things that Yuanna had to move with.

It was the same with preparing for U & Na’s 2nd regular album.

It was the same during the audition period to select trainees.

Even when I was busy working overtime, when I brought late-night snacks, Arin and I came together.

That’s why it’s been a long time since Yuna and I moved together like this.

This wasn’t a set schedule, it was something I had to go to after receiving a sudden call from Hyukjun last night.

“brother! Because it’s a friendship show. Why am I being dragged all the way to filming the sea?”

“Hyukjun, it’s because you act so well. I heard the director asked for more scenes to be filmed?”

“Even though I did okay. If so, isn’t this completely my movie?”

with these gossips.

“I’m going to shoot at the sea, and hyung comes and sees me. Because CEO Choi Woo-hyuk has been saying that a movie can only become a hit once in a while.”

“okay. I’ll go according to my schedule that day.”

It seems that the film crew also saw the so-called ‘WH CEO Choi Woo-hyuk’s success story’, which was reprinted while selecting trainees this time.

Hyukjun asked me to visit the filming site and cheer him on when it was time.

It is a place that reacts sensitively to even a trivial superstition.

So, if the filming team and actors can cheer up just by visiting, then of course they should go.

It was a visit to the filming site that was decided.

Roads are also busy with trainee selection-related matters, so Yuna and the two are traveling by car.

Would this have been that much fun?

I see Yuna, who has not stopped humming since getting into the car.

“Chief. Of course, today’s filming location is far away, so we have to go for a while.”

“I know. They said that after going down, they would shoot for about three days before coming up.”

“is it so?”

“uh. Rather, I think we should eat lunch on the way.”

It seems that the time has become ambiguous since I have to take care of work at the company and leave.

I think we should have a quick bite to eat in between.

“Voila! Knowing that, this Yuna got up early in the morning and prepared a lunch box.”

It must have been a shopping bag filled with lunch boxes.

I thought it contained something like a present for Yuna and Minjun.

“On the way, I eat at a rest area or a sleepy shelter. I even brought something to drink.”

“Are you sure you have prepared?”

“of course! It’s been a while since we’ve been together like this.”

“okay. It’s because my stomach was about to leave. Let’s go eat at the next rest area.”

“yes!”

Even if I went to a rest stop, I couldn’t sit at a table and eat.

No matter how tightly she wraps it up, there is Yuna who exudes force saying ‘I’m a celebrity’.

It was obvious that if he recognized Yuna right away, requests from people seeking his autograph would follow.

Then you won’t even be able to eat a proper meal.

“It’s Yuna.”

“yes?”

“The car is a bit narrower than that, but will it be okay? It’s hard outside because of the people, and I think I’ll have to eat inside.”

It wasn’t a car that I usually ride to move to the set.

Since all I had to do was move my body, I was coming in a car that was easy to drive.

At my worry, Yuna gets angry as if asking what she’s talking about.

“Better!”

huh?

“Oh no! It’s okay to come prepared with things that are easy to eat. And I was worried that the boss might be tired, so I prepared coffee. Even fruit for dessert!”

“okay. thanks.”

Fortunately, Yuna didn’t seem to care.

I was taken aback when I opened the lunch box that Yuna had prepared.

“Are you Yuna?”

“yes? why?”

I looked at Yuna, who was looking at me with an innocent face, and at the lunch box that had just appeared.

This···

“Today is tofu sushi too?”

“This is the chief’s favorite menu!”

That’s right.

Strangely since I was little, I liked fried tofu sushi rather than gimbap.

Because of my taste, my mother would always pack fried tofu sushi on picnic days.

Perhaps he remembered what he had just casually said, he had encountered that fried tofu sushi several times recently.

But I didn’t know that I would see that fried tofu sushi again today.

Yuna asked if I was puzzled by my reaction.

“Didn’t the one I made for a late-night snack a few days ago taste good?”

“no. As I always say, Yuna and all the food you make are delicious.”

“Right? Then eat quickly! I didn’t prepare the soup because I thought I’d eat it in the car. Try this too.”

“okay.”

I had no choice but to open my mouth thanks to Yuna who handed me a piece of tofu sushi.

My arm hurt while holding it, so I was struggling.

“It is delicious.”

this is sincere

I don’t know what kind of magic she actually uses, but all of Yuna’s food is delicious.

It seems that she inherited the taste of Yuna’s mother, Mrs. Kim Hye-in.

“Right? Eat this too. You need to eat a lot of nutrients to take care of your health.”

“okay. Yuna, you too, eat quickly.”

“yes!”
