chapter 33
[33] Stage constitution (5)
A world in which charm equals skill, and popularity is treated as a senior.
I was confident that I would be better at self-objectification than anyone else in the entertainment industry.
Even if you have perfect looks and skills, how do you know who will win in this game of ruin?
Not just once or twice, but over and over again.
I couldn’t help but notice how bad my eyesight was.
‘Star Castle…’

Kim Hyun-sook, who lived next door to her, was also very good at her songs.
As she became an adult, she naturally gave up her dream of becoming a singer.
“Suho oppa!”
I gave up my thoughts at JiU’s words coming down from the shop.
“Is our makeup far away?”
“It’s almost over.”
“We have to go quickly. We don’t have time.”
“It’s no joke that Yeji unnie changes her hair.”
“Is that enough?”
“It’s so pretty. You have to see it for yourself.”
“Yes.”
Visuals can’t be faulted.
Ahead of the awards ceremony stage, Solar tries to transform into a new style.
I didn’t even interfere unless it was particularly intrusive and tickled the back of my neck.
“Yumi will take care of the coordination.”
“Ah, now Joo-hee unnie also styled her long hair.”
“Juhee?”
“Yeah. But long hair is uncomfortable when working out.”
“… Finally change.”
I just wore my hair up in a ponytail every day.
“Jiyu, why did you apply for manager?”
“Suddenly?”
“Yeah. I’m suddenly curious.”
I wonder if I’ve lost my senses in the entertainment industry these days.
“Because my sisters are pretty.”
“…”
Second, the reason is rather absurd.
“Then did you become a fan after opening?”
“As soon as they debuted, they exploded with the music video concept.”
“That’s right.”
“If it didn’t come up, of course I wouldn’t have known, right?”
“That’s it.”
At first, Solar’s skill objectively fell short of the idol average.
<Top Idol>
It was also a fact that I grew up dramatically while filming “The Lovers”.
In other words, it means that it never floated with skill.
The company couldn’t have predicted this.
“My brother said he expected Solar to be more popular than Luna from the beginning.”
“Did I?”
“Everyone in the company said that.”
“Oh, um. Right.”
In fact, it was not only Solar, but also the drama.
Whether it’s reverse or regular, if my intuition says it’s okay, it’s all ruined.
“I would never have thought that Mr. Kim, an international lawyer, would be so damned.”
“They delayed filming it.”
“The investment money was blown away.”
“Right. Casting is already over.”
“…”
Although it was true that the staff who was scammed did something wrong.
Could anyone but me have predicted such misfortune?
“It’s just like a natural disaster.”
“If Eunseo had a private audition.”
“… It must have been a major disaster.”
Certainly, there is no formula for rising in the entertainment industry.
Star quality, charm, and even luck.
You need something invisible.
At that time, the five Solar members slowly descended from the shop.
She walked in wearing a matching orange and yellow dress.
‘What a corny match.’
Now the back of my head is tickling just by the color of my dress.
It activates all the time, so I get stressed out.
‘Yeji…’
Even among the members, he showed off his unrivaled presence.
Long black hair that goes down to her waist.
Three-dimensional features gathered on a small head.
Rumble-
I started the van after seeing the gorgeously transformed children.
‘Yeji is perfect as long as she fixes the treble.’
Although I learned from the Queen and grew a lot.
It was still strangely jarring to my ears.
“Manager! How are we?”
“Yes. Pretty.”
“… A little soul.”
It is virtually impossible to be sure of success in the entertainment industry.
It’s okay if you don’t trust my judgment in the future.
In a way that doesn’t feel very good, or is very intrusive.
“We’ll be late for rehearsal. Let’s go quickly.”
“It’s not too late.”
It only goes in the damn direction.

Baeksang Arts Awards 1st and 2nd opening stages all <Top Idol>
Origin filled.
Isolation and Solar emerged as the best girl groups of the 4th generation.
The organizers also had no reason not to use the hottest group recently.
“Suyeon-ah, we have arrived.”
“Ah, yes.”
Suyeon attended the awards ceremony with a popular drama that ended late last year.
“Brother, I still don’t understand.”
“What.”
“SBC international lawyer Mr. Kim! Does this make sense?”
“I know.”
A big mistake by the staff of the drama production company.
I know you’ve been scammed locally.
“It’s just unlucky. It’s a natural disaster.”
“Therefore.”
How did Jeong Su-ho anticipate it and tell him to avoid it?
Oh my God, how can such an unfortunate coincidence happen?
Even at Dream Agency, sparks fell on my feet right away.
It ruined the careers of the supporting actors who were put in there.
“Today, Executive Director Kwon has been brutal since morning.”
“…”
I heard you put a lot of effort into the SBC drama department.
Isn’t this the first time that Kwon’s line has been shaken?
“There may be some blows this time.”
“Ah, Managing Director Kwon?”
“…”
I think his latest target is manager Jeong Soo-ho.
He was the only one who predicted that the SBC drama was going to fail.
“You’ll know when you see it.”
Soo-yeon gracefully got off the van and entered the awards ceremony.
The long red carpet.
Flash baptism by reporters.
I passed the photo zone and entered the awards ceremony hall.
Actors who were close to her gathered around Suyeon.
“Suyeon-ah! What did you do?”
“Yeah?”
“International lawyer Mr. Kim! Rumor has it that he knew about it and avoided it.”
“Ah, that’s right.”
“I heard that my eyes for selecting works have really improved.”
“…”
I am the same.
“I’m lucky now.”
“Oh, I’ll have to follow you next time.”
“Ah, hahahaha.”
Su-yeon unknowingly put a mulberry on his shoulder.
How long has it been since someone envied his choice?
“Hey, isn’t that the girl group you and I used to do variety shows with?”
“Who…”
Soo-yeon moved her gaze to the stage her senior pointed out.
The two teams are busy preparing for the rehearsal stage.
“Isolation and Solar have the same dress code.”
“Um, I’ll stop and go say hello.”
“Yes. Contact me often.”
Why are they wearing the same orange and yellow dresses?
Of course, the two teams responsible for the opening stages of the first and second parts.
In fact, it could only be seen that one of the two followed suit.
Another angle, another angle—
Soo-yeon showed a welcome look and approached them.
“Hi guys!”
“Hello!”
<Top Idol>
The children who became quite close to each other through the process.
The two teams faced each other in a subtle war of nerves.
“Oh my, how are the dresses the same?”
“I see! It suddenly changed today, what is it?”
“… Yes?”
The leader of Isolation who answers cunningly.
After hearing Nasurin’s words, I roughly grasped the circumstances.
“Did it change today?”
“Yes! At work.”
The dress code has nothing to do with the music concept.
It was not something that could be changed suddenly in one day.
“I look forward to it today. Both teams.”
“Yes!”
There is a spy in the Q&G label.
If that’s the case, did Jung Soo-ho eat a room?
Sigh-
In an instant, I turned around the facility and looked at the back of the stage.
Manager Jung Soo-ho scratching the back of his head with a calm expression.
As if he had predicted everything, he was looking at the two teams with clear eyes.
‘… Did you know!?’
I thought it was advantageous to go on stage in isolation first.
‘It wasn’t like that.’
<Top Idol>
The first and second expressions on the stage.
And every time, I overwhelmingly pressed the isolation.
An insight into the future.
The temperament of a matchmaker who puts the stakes all-in.
Like the current CEO of Dream Agency, he was seeing through the entertainment world.
‘As expected, Jung Soo-ho…’
After moving the company, I changed into a completely different person.
It was no coincidence that Solar was raised as a tier 1 girl group.
‘Have you been practicing until now?’
The representative of Dream Agency heard that he developed his skills in a nonsensical way during his road days.
Isn’t the entertainment industry a market that cannot be analyzed in the first place?
However, if you can practice with the stars.
‘It was a big picture from the beginning!’
Actors were just practice partners to become a platform for growth.
* * *
Oh, it’s like a family.
General Manager Gam Seok-tae, this bastard is shooting internally.
You’re trying to fuck Solar by spilling the dress code.
DK Music isn’t even ground, are you picking it up and eating it?
Somehow, just looking at the dress made the back of my head tickle.
“U-Um… I’m sorry, manager.”
“Ah, Yumi-san.”
The stylist smiled and told me.
“Chief Park told me to change it as soon as possible…”
“No, thanks.”
“Yeah?”
My gut judged it to be a good thing.
I couldn’t change it now.
“It’s rather good. I’ll just go on like this.”
“Ha, but.”
“I’ll tell the manager.”
“Ah, ah… Yes!!”
Suddenly, Jo Yu-mi’s expression suddenly brightened.
“I’m relieved to see the manager’s expression.”
“Yeah?”
“You didn’t know?”
“…”
I had no idea.
“Because the dress is just for show.”
The singer shines on stage.
The most important thing is skill.
“Senior, I learned a lot today!”
“…”
What does Cody learn from the manager?
In the first place, if the work is different, you are not a senior.
The Solar members who were listening by the side also spoke to me with flashes in their eyes.
“Can we just trust our manager and work hard on the stage?”
“Uh. I have to work hard. Of course.”
“Okay! The manager says so.”
“…”
What are you talking about
If I tell you to do it roughly, will you do it roughly?
“Quickly go get ready for the stage.”
“Yeah!”
The rehearsal has already ended, and only the actual performance remains.
Today <Top Idol>
Was the concept of overtime.
No voting, no survival, but the public will remember who won.
After a while,
As scheduled, the curtain on the Baeksang Arts Awards has risen.
A stage where top stars clap while watching the stage.
Isolation went on stage with a celebration.
‘As expected, the reaction is lukewarm.’
I was well aware of the physiology of actors who manage their images.
Even on a very hot stage, they don’t react easily.
Even if national MCs win the grand prize, they are people who just clap their hands.
No matter how rumors went up, the attitude of the actors did not change much.
‘If you look at the stage…’
As expected, Isolation is still at the top of the 4th generation girl group.
It seems that Solar is not the only one who has grown.
<Top Idol>
While doing survival entertainment.
‘… You’re good.’
It was the best Isolation stage I’ve ever seen.
Looking at the tickle in the back of the head… I don’t know.
* * *
An office of Q&G label.
Director Gam Seok-tae watched the awards ceremony broadcast with his subordinates.
“Chief Ki-Won Seong.”
“Yes. Chief.”
I was going to film manager Jeong Soo-ho at once.
The SBC drama broke out at an absurd timing.
“My appearance has become very funny.”
“No.”
Was two months such a long time in the entertainment industry?
I wondered if CEO Seo’s album work was being taken away.
“Now they put a knife to my throat.”
“…”
At first it was just annoying.
Even light punishment was difficult.
Only two months.
In the meantime, Jung Soo-ho grew so big that he couldn’t even put his hand on it.
A girl group raised by Road, who was relegated with the disbandment of Management Team 4.
Solar now decorated the stage at the awards ceremony where top stars gathered.
It’s already been covered enough to compare with the shoulder of the jet kick.
“A dress code was a good strategy, though.”
“Because DK Music also risked going up in the cubic stage.”
“Instead, I gave up a supporting role.”
“…But I’m still anxious.”
I thought you were going to change the costume even if it was too much.
I proceeded as if it didn’t matter at all.
‘Are you saying you’re confident?’
With Kwon’s help, I could blow it away with one sneeze.
‘My position will collapse.’
I’m going to judge that not a single road manager handled it.
Then, sooner or later, this position will be replaced by someone else.
After a short ad break,
Soon after, the stage for the second part of the Baeksang Arts Awards Ceremony was raised.
Five girls on stage, Solar.
New song <Sunshine>
The introductory part of
It was this.
‘…The reason I was anxious.’
A hot stage production that rips the intro.

Kim Ye-ji overcame the high pitch problem with a new singing method.
It is said that Diana produced this herself.
‘Have you always been this good at singing?’
The members completed the stage by receiving one-shots in their respective parts.
‘In the meantime, I’ve grown more.’
The girls who dominated the stage induced the actors to respond.
In particular, since those sitting around actress Lee Soo-yeon started waving.
Why are people who were not interested in idols suddenly doing this during the opening stage of part 1?
-C’mon everyone. This is Anna with D.
Diana slammed her cool wraps into the audience’s ears.
A performance that moves even top stars with heavy hips.
Solar has already thrown out the limits of a 4th generation girl group.
Not necessarily only music majors are in charge of producing girl groups.
‘Jeong Soo-ho must have been a real genius.’
Before she knew it, she herself became a genius producer and enemy.

Knock, Knock-
Just then, someone knocked on the door in the office of the general manager.
“Um, who…”
Soon after, the door opens and CEO Kong Yoo-hwan enters.
As soon as he saw him, he jumped up and greeted him.
“Chief, why did you…”
“I was watching the ceremony after all.”
“Ah yes.”
Director Seong, who had been sitting by his side, moved away without noticing.
“Director Gam, how do you evaluate Solar’s performance?”
“… It’s grown a lot.”
“It’s so fortunate that our company has a manager who can raise a girl group like that.”
“That, that’s… That’s right.”
President Kong was putting pressure on himself.
Please don’t touch Jung Soo Ho from now on.
“I mean manager Jeong Soo-ho.”
“Yes. CEO.”
“How warmly can you look at those kids from behind the scenes?”
“That’s.”
CEO Kong Yoo-hwan continued with sharp eyes.
“You know what I mean.”
“… Yes. CEO.”

“Yang Joo-hee, why are you tearing the hem of your dress?!”

Know how much it costs
I’ll give you an excuse later.
“… It was annoying to dance.”
No matter how great a singer is, there is one thing that never changes.
This beggarly eye did not miss the irritating part.
‘Ah, that’s why I’m a shithead.’
It’s the little things like that that bother me more than my singing or dancing skills.
Yeji trembles like a goat when the vibration is turned on,
It’s a pity that Somi’s emotional line collapses when she plays high notes,
Yang Joo-hee is an innocent girl group tearing her dress.
Although I could stay up all night if I told him to say something irritating.
“Well, but…”
Good job. Our kids
You’ve really grown up
Now I can say it with sincere acknowledgment.
“My kids, you must have been on stage.”
Although the hand gestures, foot gestures, expressions, and concepts still bothered me a little.
Seeing that the back of his head tickled, there was nothing wrong with it.
Check the children who have finished the stage,
I ran to the long-suffering bathroom.
“Aww, I’m all trembling.”
A time of peace and stability.
However, he is a man who keeps glancing at me from the side.
He couldn’t stand it and threw a word at the person next to him.
“Hey, let’s just look ahead and see each other’s business.”
“Um, manager Jung Soo-ho, by any chance.”
“?”
Only then did he turn his head to check his opponent’s face.
“Who…?”
“Tvm Escape Room Maze, PD Kim Ji-hoon!”
“… Yes.”
He seemed quite young for a PD at a broadcasting station.
‘Where did you see it?’
I’m embarrassed to introduce myself in the bathroom.
I mean, I feel like I’m familiar with it for some reason.
“Manager Jeong Soo-ho, are you from Hankuk University…?”
“Yes, that is correct.”
“This is the 14th class of Business Administration!”
“Somehow, the face seemed familiar.”
“Me too! hahahaha.”
To be honest, I only remembered the face.
Because there were over 100 students in one class.
“hahahaha. Nice to meet you, senior! It’s meant to be that we met, so let’s have a cup of coffee!”
“Okay, so let’s go out and talk.”
“Huh, senpai is in the middle of the day. Looks like he’s going to pierce the urinal too…”
“… Attention.”
“Yep.”
Why is my junior doing this in the bathroom?
