chapter 27
[27] Actress (4)
How many months has it been since you moved your company to the Q&G label?
Long if long, short if short.
I was used to idol care now.
I just chose the opposite, not relying on intuition.
Most people inside and outside the company started to trust me.
“Suho!”
“Yes. Chief.”
I moved to the position of the team leader who was calling from afar.
“Did you call me?”
“Did the Solar members take good care of themselves in the morning?”
“Yes. I’m in the practice room. Yeji and Somi are at school.”
“Has Yeji already started filming?”
“Yes. I don’t have much to prepare.”
“It’s fast.”
A monodrama whose theme is the inner growth of the main character.
In fact, there was no need to exchange sums with other characters.
I heard that writer Kim Go-eun taught me how to act.
He said, “I’m preparing for the stage, and now I’m only concerned about auditioning for Eunseo.”
“Hmm, you’re doing great.”
Soon, the team leader held out a magic wand with his muscular forearm.
A combination of a sun-shaped crystal ball and a comfortable stick.
“Solar’s light stick came out.”
“… Not really.”
“Isn’t it bad?”
“No, it looks like a star.”
“Is it the sun?”
“Because the sun is also a star.”
“…”
Individually. I want to scratch the back of your neck
“Jiyu has many miscellaneous talents.”
“Yes. He made a notice.”
“Did you make a photo card here?”
“Ah yes.”
Yeji and Eunseo, as well as the other members, came out pretty.
In particular, the proportions are good, so the full-body shot suits them well.
“Manager.”
Suddenly, I thought of a way to use the goods for good.
“With this, instead of a private fan cafe, we’ll increase the number of paid members.”
“How?”
“It’s not long before the fan meeting.”
“Right.”
Fan meeting tickets could be included in solar goods or albums.
Rather than editorial, wouldn’t it be possible to give strength to paid official fan cafes?
“Only paid members need to be able to buy goods.”
“Oh, is that good?”
“I think it would be better to increase the chance of winning a fan meeting for goods rather than albums.”
“As expected, Jeong Soo-ho.”
The manager smiled and patted me on the shoulder.
How long has it been since I heard a compliment without a reverse bet.
“Now I should start preparing for the fan meeting soon.”
“Yes. I will prepare it with Jiu.”
“Oh, and the manager is looking for you.”
“Now?”
“Uh. Let’s go.”
As soon as I heard the manager’s words, I moved to the chief’s office.
I heard that things are going well these days, so he buys it with a little bit of energy from his father.
Looking at Jaeha and Jiu, even a golden spoon doesn’t seem like a comfortable life.
‘How is Jae-Ha these days?’
I’ll try to contact you later.

Knock, Knock-
Soon, he knocked on the door in front of the office and opened it.
“Chief, did you call?”
“Ah, manager Jung Soo-ho.”
Director Gong’s expression brightened at once when he saw my face.
“How is your work these days?”
“The members are kind, and all of them are good.”
“Well…”
Mr. Gong lightly exchanged his regards and then opened his mouth.
Even when I kicked the SBC audition opportunity, he didn’t say much.
‘What are you trying to say.’
Soon, Director Gong slowly opened his mouth.
“President Seo asks me to help him make the album.”
“Aha, let’s fight!”
“… Not me, manager Jung Soo-ho.”
“Me?”
Why do you ask your manager to make an album?
First of all, I didn’t even major in music.
“I know what you’re thinking. Of course you’re in trouble.”
“No. It’s not like that.”
“Are you okay?”
“Sure. It can’t be helped.”
“I’m glad.”
Can I just help you choose a song?
There’s nothing wrong with showing off to the Queen.
‘Incentive pay will also go up.’
No matter what, money is the best.
Even if the work is hard, give a lot of money.
“I think you’re great.”
“Yeah?”
“Your expression doesn’t change at all.
“Ah.”
I didn’t know that at all.
“You will continue to be my line. The hero of the 2nd Headquarters!”
“… Yes.”
Director Gong continued with a satisfied expression.
“Did you know that the head of Division 1 was from Dream Agency not too long ago?”
“Yes. I heard.”
“It’s the Kwon line that disbanded your previous team.”
“…”
I didn’t know that either.
“I knew it from the look on your face. It’s definitely Jeong Soo-ho.”
“There.”
“Yes. That’s enough to be ambitious. hahahaha.”
“?”
I’m not ambitious.
* * *
Shinsang Arts Middle School.
The production team set up various shooting equipment in an empty classroom.
There was only one performer with weight, Yeji.
“Hey, Mr. Jiyu.”
“Yes. Director.”
“Can I go into the filming?”
“Yes. I’ll call you sister.”
Joo Hyun-seong checked the script while watching Ji-yu walk away.
“Hyunseong-hyung, aren’t you rushing the filming?”
“It’s urgent.”
Currently, Solar’s popularity is nationwide.
It was not enough to advance the schedule.
<Top Idol>
If you export the video according to the final stage.
It will definitely elicit a better response.
“We have to hurry up. It’s still not enough.”
“Mmm.”
What a collaboration between writer Kim Go-eun and Kim Ye-ji.
Pinocchio Studio will grow like crazy.
Soon after, Yeji Kim entered the classroom and began taking her first shot.
“Ready action!”
A girl who shines especially among the supporting cast.
Even if she put on ugly makeup on purpose, she couldn’t hide all her beauty.
“Hey, what are you doing at night to sleep?”
“Ummm, a personal gram.”
“…Do you do that too?”
“Just.”
An ordinary account with less than 10 followers.
My friend looked at Yeji like a star.
“Hey, that’s your crush.”
“Oh, don’t.”
In an instant, complex and subtle emotions pass Yeji’s eyes.
Jealousy and longing for a successful existence that is different from oneself.
Joo Hyun-seong looked at those eyes and admired them inwardly.
‘Complex…?’
The leader of Solar, who became a superstar right after her debut, has an inferiority complex.
<Top Idol>
Essen took the top spot with her emotional vocal skills.
‘He’s an acting genius.’
I would have thought she had talent in her acting too.
It really has improved since the script reading.
After the first scene, Joo Hyun-seong approached Ye-ji.
“Yeji, isn’t acting a joke? It’s better than during the script reading!”
“Thank you!”
“Have you ever been envious of others?”
“Sure. Luna too.”
“Ah, lie.”
Compared to Luna, the same agency, the gap was huge.
Whether it’s the size of your fan club or your popularity, nothing can compare.
‘Are you trying to act a method…?’
You created a virtual enemy to capture your emotions.
“Yeji-san, the next scene is to act in front of a man he has a crush on.”
“Yes. I can do it!”
“?”
Isn’t your appearance too perfect to try unrequited love?
I’ve been a trainee for a long time, so I probably don’t even remember my school days.
‘… I was just worried.’
I put my worries aside when I saw the expression on my face that was immersed in an instant.
In the drama, non-verbal elements were just as important as the lines.
‘Chinta’s acting is natural!’
He hesitates in front of a man and slowly raises his round glasses.
It was perfect for assaulting the memories of the stale school days.
“Hey, over there your girlfriend is passing by.”
“Mistress, are you kidding me?”
Yeji walks past with her face down despite the male students’ ridicule.
His expression looked as if he was about to shed tears any moment.
“Cut! Thank you for your hard work.”
“…”
For a while, Yeji couldn’t get out of her immersion.
As if someone remembered someone they really liked.
‘No way.’
There’s no way you’re really in love.
Aren’t they the hottest idol members right now?
The staff filming next to them quietly exclaimed.
“Let’s write a still cut of this scene.”
“Wow, it’s really pretty.”
“I’ve got everything. You’re good at acting.”
“I know.”
Originally, the world is an unfair law.
* * *
I wonder if our Yeji is doing well in acting.
I’m worried because there’s a bit of a dirty corner.
I used to eat alone in the corner every day.
“Manager, focus!”
Then, Eunseo waved her finger around and called me.
“Ah, you were supposed to watch the acting.”
“Uh. Yes. I’m watching.”
Eunseo spit out the first line of dialogue according to the script.
“Haa, the common people.”
“You’re a commoner too.”
“Are you kidding me? I’m experiencing common people!”
“Uh. I hope.”
“… Manager, I can’t concentrate because I’m reading like a robot.”
“What about the common people? There’s nothing to be ashamed of.”
“… Manager?”
“Where are the common people these days?
“Hmm.”
I recited my lines and slightly averted my gaze.
“What.”
Looking at Eunseo’s expression, I must have done something wrong.
My ex-girlfriend hadn’t even emptied it like this.
“I don’t know what it is, but I’m sorry.”
“… That’s Okay.”
“Tomorrow is the audition, right? Getting married to a conglomerate family.”
“You do know.”
“Of course. It’s work.”
“…”
Eunseo made a strange expression and asked a question.
“What is Solar to your manager?”
“Well. All of a sudden?”
“Yes. I heard something from Yeji unnie.”
“What?”
“Please answer first.”
“Hmm.”
What is Solar to me?
Beneficiaries of reverse betting?
“What is it, what is it. A celebrity.”
“Ah.”
“Hurry up and practice. I’m still lacking a lot.”
“I know.”
She said it wasn’t enough, but in fact it was enough.
Because the back of her head tickled when she acted.
“I have to go to the recording studio now.”
“Huh? Today, Diana and Joo-hee were together with senior Blacky…”
“Not that one.”
The queen called
drooling-
She immediately left the practice room and moved to the elevator.
‘Anyway, it’s difficult.’
The expressions of the people in headquarters 1 in the office next door were unusual.
Does it make sense to be photographed by an executive for sharing work?
‘It’s probably a check.’
Compared to Jet Kick, Solar was nothing.
Now, the members of Jetkick are helping with the feature.
‘Besides…’
The person who disbanded the previous team was director Kwon.
The selection of works is entirely up to the artists and superiors.
Getting rid of management entirely was not normal.
Soon, I met someone’s eyes in front of the recording studio.
“Hello.”
“Well.”
It’s strange to say hello.
“Go in. The Queen is looking for you.”
“… Yeah.”
Director of Strategic Planning at Q&G Headquarters 1.
Maybe I have feelings for you.

Knock, Knock-
I immediately knocked and stepped into the recording studio.
“Manager Jeong Soo-ho, are you here?”
“Yes. CEO.”
After the Solar Concept Meeting, the queen I haven’t seen in a long time.
She used honorifics to people she didn’t know personally.
“I’m not even a major, but I asked for a difficult request.”
“No.”
Other than that, everything else is difficult.
Corporate life has been a bit hectic.
‘She’s very bright.’
It must be a completely different world for a representative from a celebrity background.
“Now, would you like to listen to the song first?”
“Ah yes.”
Click-
It’s the first time I’ve heard this song, but I really liked it.
Is it really the result of experts pouring blood and sweat?
“Oh, nice…”
“Good? Really?”
“Nope.”
“?”
I almost made a mistake.
“Listening again, it’s just like that.”
“Oh, is that so?”
“…”
Although the composers sitting next to me cursed with their eyes.
‘So what.’
Didn’t the queen also invite you to make a reverse bet?
Would you believe me if I told you that it was good to hear later?
‘The song is really good.’
After that, the moment I kept listening to about eight songs in a row.
“Huh? This song…”
“Five!?”
I was only able to salvage one song.
I want a reaction from the back of my head.
‘The tearing of the guitar sound is so uncomfortable!’
The owner of the song suddenly stood up and raised both hands.
“hahahaha. You have a different eye as expected!”
“…”
Just say it’s not good
“CEO, among the rest of the songs, there are no songs that make me feel.”
“Ehh, but I got one song.”
“No. CEO, my eyes may be wrong.”
“Well, I didn’t like most of the songs either.”
“…”
I liked almost everything.
Man running around there.
‘Except for one song.’
* * *
On the day of the public audition for the JTBS drama 「Marrying into a chaebol family」.
All Solar members gathered to cheer Eunseo up.
“Eunseo, if you do well today, I’ll have a drink with you.”
“Really? You can’t drink.”
“That’s how good it is.”
Her younger siblings also cheered her on.
“Sister, you can do it!”
“If you audition well, I’ll let you know about the 5-minute workout.”
“Oh, I’m losing my strength.”
Eunseo left the dorm after seeing Suho’s message that she had arrived nearby.
“Hmm, I’m sticking with you today…”
“It’s Eunseo!”
“Eh?”
An old woman calling herself in front of the dorm.
Although her outfit is still airy linen.
Behind it was a gleaming silver Bugatti.
“Grandma, did you get a new car again?”
“It doesn’t matter now.”
“…”
That’s what’s important
“Her grandmother has been using a talisman for a long time, so put it in her panties quickly!”
“Oh really!”
“Uh huh, how much does this cost?”
“I’m an idol too!”
“I have two children too!”
“Ah, don’t.”
“It’s okay.”
While the two are arguing over the amulet.
A van approached nearby and parked in front of the accommodation.
“Manager!!!”
As soon as Eunseo found Suho, she asked for help with her eyes.
“Oh, Mr. Lee was such a great manager!”
“Ah… Hello. Grandma!”
Jeong Su-ho was also acquainted with his grandmother.
<Top Idol>
Because I participated as an audience member.
“Ah, I’m grateful to the manager. How can a gift be…”
“No. It’s not even worth it.”
“Ah, it’s a heart.”
Her grandmother took out a white envelope and handed it to Suho.
“No. I’ll just take your heart!”
“Hey.”
“It’s really fine.”
“Uh, the manager doesn’t care about money.”
“No. I like money, but I won’t take it from Grandma.”
“Ah, so what. Eunseo, you take it.”
“Yes?”
Eunseo took the envelope and the amulet that her grandmother gave her at the same time.
I appreciate that she is trying to look good for herself to the manager.
‘No, Grandma…’
Giving the price of a car as a gift is burdensome for anyone.
“Eunseo, I have to go to the audition soon.”
“Ah yes.”
Jang Jang-seo climbed into the van and glanced at her grandmother outside her window.
She brought tears to her eyes as she waved her hand until he walked away.
“I’m sorry. Manager.”
“It’s okay, you can cry. It was very difficult.”
“No, that’s it.”
Eunseo smiled and agreed with Suho.
“It was difficult. The trainee period was too long.”
“Let’s do well today and be filial to grandma.”
“It should be.”
In an instant, Jeong Su-ho opened his mouth as if something came to mind.
“But did you see a sports car earlier? There must be a chaebol living near our dorm.”
“…”
I live in Cheongdam-dong, not nearby.
“Anyway, don’t be nervous at the audition today!”
“I’m not falling.”
Eun-seo held his amulet tightly in her hand and fell into serious trouble.
“What is it, what kind of amulet?”
“Don’t put it in!”
“What.”
“…”
Manager Jung Soo-ho glances through the room mirror.
“Did Grandma take care of the talisman?”
“Whoa, who in the world believes in amulets these days?”
“I didn’t believe that either.”
“… Then.”
That means you believe in amulets now.
Not to mention, even such a genius believes in superstition.
After a while, the two arrived at the audition site on time.
“Eunseo, let’s get off.”
“Yes!”
The amulet in Eunseo’s hand disappeared somewhere.
