Celebrity Life Misunderstood as a Genius

chapter 21



[21] Auspicious (2)

Get into the van to prepare for the 2nd contest in earnest,

Yeji slightly turned her gaze to look at his manager.

‘As expected, it’s trustworthy.’

A comfortable expression in the world, as if dis-rap was nothing.

No, rather, a challenging look, as if trying to turn a crisis into an opportunity.

When I saw that face, my anxiety melted away like snow.

“Manager. What kind of gift would you like to receive…”

“Yes?”

“No, no!”

“?”

Today is settlement day, so I want to give you a present.

I thought about what kind of gift would be good all night.

‘Ugh, if I had the money, I’d like to pick up a car for you.’

I have to give you something I always wanted.

I’m sure the manager would be happy to receive it.

Soon, the members headed to their destination under the care of manager Jeong Su-ho.

Producer Seo Tae-sung’s agency, Turn Up Records.

He was a top-notch entertainer in Korea who raised hip-hop idols.

“Guys, let’s get off.”

“Yes.”

A daily life that is no different from the usual.

However, changes were clearly taking place around the Solar members.

Otherwise, producer Seo Tae-sung wouldn’t have greeted me like this.

“Oh, the Solar members are here.”

A place where we gathered to produce the second contest song.

Already <Top Idol>

The crew set up the camera.

Soon, Yeji looked at the members’ eyes and vigorously greeted them.

“Two three, hello! I’m Solar, who protects the sun!”

“hahahaha. The relief is good.”

“Two three, thank you!”

“…You can stop doing that.”

“Two three, I see!”

“…”

Soon after, following Taeseong’s instructions, Diana showed off her genius moment to her heart’s content.

“This is dance break time.”

“Is Joo-hee dancing alone for 30 seconds?”

“No, it’s a contest, but there should be 45 seconds.”

“Yes! Then I’ll pull it to the side of the string.”

“As expected, it makes sense.”

Seeing them arranging in real time together was truly moving.

After only a month of debuting, I was collaborating with a top producer.

“Diana, I’m going to make a name for myself as a composer this time.”

“My, my name?”

“Of course. We work together.”

“Ah…”

It’s to the point where the top domestic producers put their names up as co-composers.

‘Although I knew that the fourth of us was good at it.’

During her trainee days, she didn’t discover any talent at all.

Manager Jung Soo-ho, who discovered this genius alone, is what the hell.

‘The manager really…!’

I just want to thank you for always believing in me.

How do you always provide the best environment like this?

Sigh-

Yeji slightly turned her gaze to check Suho standing on one side of the studio.

She was so focused that she didn’t even know she was scratching the back of her neck.

She was watching the work closely with sharp eyes.

‘Yes. If it’s with our manager.’

Even if I lost everything right now and started over, I wasn’t afraid at all.

Even if you start from the bottom, you’ll put it on the right track in an instant, just like before.

He’s not a fake who can’t even sing high notes like himself, he’s a real genius.

Because he is the best manager who always believes in the members’ potential.

“Hey, Manager Jeong Soo-ho.”

“Yes. Producer.”

During the break, producer Seo Tae-seong quietly talked to Suho.

“I’m sorry about the Jacob problem. I think it’s my fault.”

“No, thanks.”

<Top Idol>

Right before the first contest broadcast.

Once again, public attention was focused on Solar.

“It’s rather good if we get attention during the broadcast of episode 2.”

“Ah, you mean the first contest broadcast.”

“Yes, that is correct.”

Yeji smiled with a proud expression.

Thanks to the manager’s trust in him, he won first place.

‘Let’s just forget the diss.’

Jacob was being attacked to be powdered in various communities.

Like he dissed a little girl because he only had to work on a song once.

I don’t think I’m the kind of person who cares about things like that.

* * *

Two days after the release of Jacob’s dissong.

Over the course of a few days, things took a strange turn.

“Is this auspicious?”

All of the rappers who had been waiting for it were all attracted to it as if they wanted it at this time.

Under rappers follow Jacob and start swearing at idol rappers.

In response, the members of the idol hip-hop group are indignant and respond with diss.

“The Zet Kick also participated.”

Is it natural because they are idols of our company?

It felt real that the scale was getting bigger and bigger.

“Oh, how hard is it to raise a girl group?”

I didn’t do this when I was an actor, but it feels like something is happening all the time.

‘What is it?’

It’s not that the situation has gotten worse, but it doesn’t feel cool either.

It occurred to me that I might be missing something.

In the meantime, when the back of my head was itching, it always worked out.

Tuk-

Then, someone tapped my shoulder from behind.

“Who… Ah Chief!”

“Manager Jeong Soo-ho.”

“Yeah?”

Director Gong continued to speak with a solemn expression.

“Are there any plans this time, too?”

“Yeah?”

It’s not a trick, I’m not a bookmaker.

“A diss battle. You’re going with no response like last time.”

“Oh, that’s it.”

I just have no idea.

“You’re waiting on purpose, right? I’m going to explode it in one shot.”

“… It’s similar.”

“hahahaha. After all, Jung Soo-ho!”

Aren’t you taking too much steam?

<Top Idol>

Ahead of the second episode, I don’t know how much the topic will increase.

How much will the public expect from Solar’s skills in the first contest broadcast?

“CEO Gong is also watching Solar’s ​​growth with interest these days.”

“Oh, really?”

“Sure.”

Gong’s father.

Co-CEO of this company.

“Let’s grab a table for dinner soon.”

“Yes. Manager.”

Let’s not care whether they diss battle with each other or not.

We just have to prepare hard for the second contest.

Drooling-

After a while, I left the office and moved to the practice room where the members were.

Everyone was busy choreographing and practicing.

In particular, Joo-hee prepared a dance break part.

“Juhee, you are full of energy.”

“Whoa, brother, are you here?”

“I can’t see Yeji.”

“I went to buy something with Manager Um Ji-yu.”

“Yes?”

After the conversation, Juhee started dancing alone again.

A breaking dance that is difficult even for men to do.

I didn’t know anything about it, so I couldn’t give you any advice.

‘My children are suffering a lot.’

I wanted to find a famous dance teacher in b-boying.

Even money couldn’t find a B-Girl, female breaking dancer teacher.

“Brother, isn’t my part a bit boring?”

“Uh… I guess so.”

“As expected, you can see it in the manager’s eyes.”

“…”

I don’t know. I can not see.

See you need to know

‘…Where is the innocent girl group?’

Yang Joo-hee’s muscles swelled up whenever she took a fancy pose.

“Hmm, bro. Shall we just put in twerking?”

“That hip shaker?”

“Yeah!”

Calm down. Because you are an innocent girl group.

“Well, talk to the choreographer.”

“OK!”

I slightly turned my gaze and checked the other members in the practice room.

Diana sat alone in a corner, tapping her smartphone.

‘Ugh, don’t be timid.’

What are you doing so hard on yourself?

“Diana?”

“Yeah?”

Diana, startled, stops writing and hides behind her.

She raised her eyes wide as if she was a high school student caught in a porn show.

“What is it?”

“…”

Soon after, she let out a deep sigh and handed her smartphone to me.

-Jacob, who was in the US, would have already been shot and searched. He lived in Korea. Why is his name Jacob? Deokbae, you got caught gambling. Why are your hands and feet fine?

Is this the timid Diana I knew?

I couldn’t even read the contents behind it with my own eyes.

Her swearing was so bad that I was embarrassed to put it in her mouth.

“You want to diss too?”

“Can I?”

“…Just do it.”

“Five.”

In an instant, I felt a slight tickling sensation in the back of my head.

“You mean do it!?”

“…”

I should say no right now.

Why is the back of her neck itching all of a sudden?

They’re a rookie girl group whose contract hasn’t even had ink on them yet.

Do we really need to get involved in this muddy fight?

‘Ah, maybe it was this.’

Now I have reached the point where I can use my intuition to some degree.

The outcome of this poop may have been in Diana’s hands.

‘Something was unpleasant.’

All of a sudden, the members who had gathered around me helped each other out.

“Diana, when I say do it normally, I mean don’t do it.”

“Ah. Korean is difficult.”

“Because we’re a girl group. We can’t do everything we want to do.”

“Ugh, sorry.”

Because I am the manager You don’t have to trust your instincts to raise them.

As expected, the correct answer is to go the opposite direction my hunch points to.

“… Just do it.”

“Yeah?”

“Majdis, do it.”

“Really!?”

“Uh. Be good instead.”

“Yeah!”

After all, I have been entrusted with full authority by the head of the headquarters.

I was able to push the members with ease.

“If you neglect to prepare for the contest because of that, it will be canceled.”

“I’ll work hard!”

The members looked at me with round eyes.

“Let’s release the right song when Top Idol episode 2 airs.”

“Yes! I’ll prepare by then!”

Of course, as soon as the broadcast goes out, it will attract attention.

In the first contest, Solar took first place in the ratings.

Drooling-

At that time, Yeji opened the practice room door wide and came to me.

She came over proudly holding a large teddy bear, she said.

“Manager, take this!”

“Uh, what is this?”

“A gift!”

“To me? A teddy bear?”

“Yes! I’ve been thinking all night about what to buy when I get the settlement!”

“Wow, all night.”

Our Yeji, the sense of choosing gifts is really not normal.

Originally, pretty girls in Korea don’t have any sense.

Usually, it’s because I meet good men well and get married well.

“You.

“Really? Then I’m happy too! hehehe.”

“… When was Yeji’s birthday?”

“It’s October!”

“Yeah. Look forward to it.”

What should I buy for rumors that I bought well?

* * *

<Top Idol>

With the airing of episode 2, Solar’s stock price rose sharply.

The ratings for her first room were also significant, and the topicality was the highest.

When she was in the entertainment industry, she couldn’t be uninterested.

Finally, Solar’s skills, which had been shrouded in veil, were revealed.

She met genius producer Diana and tone genius Kim Ye-ji.

The reporters poured out similar articles with one mind.

Click-

Seo Tae-sung clicked on her contest video of Solar, which was uploaded on You Tube Hot Clip.

“Yeah, it’s great.”

The opportunity to work together would have come if she hadn’t preempted it.

Recently, there was no idol group to follow Solar.

“The music charts are also running backwards.”

<Look at me>

Challenge fashion.

Youtube hot clip views explode.

If things go well like this, I think she will be able to finish her second contest without difficulty.

If there’s one thing that’s bothering her, it’s that her dancing will be a big part of the next contest.

“Ah, at a time like this, it would be nice if Hongjoo could help you.”

“Oh, brother, it’s like that again.”

A genius choreographer who taught popular girl group B-Girls.

As a freelancer, she frequently collaborated with Turn Up Records.

“I can’t work with you if I don’t stick with it.”

“Didn’t you watch Solar’s contest? It’s already 3 million views?”

“I saw it, but they’re too babies.”

“…”

It’s my way, so if you don’t like her, you don’t care.

“How can I say it, it’s cheesy because it doesn’t have a wild taste.”

“…Because it’s an innocent girl group.”

“Uh. That’s why I hate it.”

In fact, her solar image is optimized to attract her only male fans.

Her princess-like beauty stimulated her protective instincts.

Her contest was also a stage full of lovely and soft emotions.

“Eh? What is this?”

Hong-joo found an unusual video while swimming in the nutube sea.

“Jacob John, Wash Your Ears and Listen”

-8 hours ago

-2.1 million views

-320,000 likes, 100,000 dislikes

– 1.2 million comments

The number of views was too high to be called a simple aggro video.

-Anna with D.

An intense beat bursting out with a newly created signature sound.

Before he could even spit out his rap, he overpowered the group with an intense sound.

“Ohhh, rap is half a track.”

“Hey, it kills the beat.”

“But the rap…”

A diss song that pours out swear words that are difficult to say in English and Korean.

I freely expressed the resentment that I had suppressed under the excuse of timidity.

“Wow, the cut-off for an innocent girl group is really high.”

“…”

Hong-joo adjusted her posture and sat down to focus on her diss song.

Rapid-firing lapping that unfolds gracefully on beats taken directly.

Poisonous lyrics of a high standard, and even rapping skills comparable to Jacob’s.

Certainly, she couldn’t help recognizing her skills.

“Is this native hip-hop or something?”

“Wow, it’s spicy, it’s spicy.”

From Jacob’s point of view, it must have hurt her pride.

She had a fight with a member of a girl group who had just debuted.

“Oops, Jacob is going to cry.”

A losing fight.

I’ve lost my Dilgyo.

“Brother, is Diana always this hot?”

“Well. I thought you were a bit timid.”

“Creating Solar’s choreography, shall we help?”

“Oh! Really?”

“Uh. I think it’ll be fun.”

I was trying to suddenly have an interest that I didn’t have

* * *

Meanwhile, at the same time.

Diana smiled contentedly and checked her views.

A video uploaded to the direct cam account of Um Ji-yu’s fan page.

Manager Jeong Soo-ho also opened her mouth as if she was very satisfied.

“Hey, you cursed very hard. You did very well. Praise him.”

“Thank you! hehehe.”

“… You know that Solar is an innocent girl group, right?”

“Yes! I cursed innocently!”

“…”

As expected, manager Jeong Su-ho always supports us.

Whatever you do, do it very well.

“If you’re innocent twice, it’ll be a big deal.”

“Oh, sure! I like anything big!”

“…”

Diana smiled and checked her comments on her You Tube.

“Hey, by the way.”

“Yes.”

“People say I’m timid, but I have a twisted charm.”

“Right.”

She said to herself, twisting her hair.

“Um, I’m not timid.”

“It’s okay. It’s not bad.”

“… Not really.”

It’s just that Korean is difficult, so I’m not good at it.

‘Even if I curse, praise me.’

Now I have to study Korean hard.

I want to receive a lot of praise for my good rap.
