Celebrity Life Misunderstood as a Genius

[35] Genius (2)

Somi got her shoulders raised in front of her friends.

The same goes for new songs that have recently settled in the top 10.

“Somi, are you really going out alone?”

“So be it.”

She was a congenital official, and she liked to stand out in front of others.

If it wasn’t for that reason, she wouldn’t even be a celebrity.

“What’s the title?”

“There is, it’s called Escape Room Maze. It’s a brainy deal.”

“Ohhh, that’s great! You get 100 in math every time.”

“Of course…”

“Yes?”

“No, no.”

They praise me for getting 100 points in the regular course.

You only need to skim it for an hour the day before the test.

“Keueu, our Somi barbarian has grown up a lot.”

“Because I’m no longer a barbarian.”

“Oh shoot.”

After she finished school, she visited the leader’s shooting site.

‘… Envy.’

All the staff only move after looking at ‘Yeji’.

Even the manager Jeong Su-ho and the star writer standing over there.

‘If I win too…’

Do you want to be noticed like that?

I knew very well that I had no talent for acting.

Her sentimental songs weren’t her own domain either.

“Somi.”

At that time, team leader Park Chul-min, who had come to pick him up, started talking.

“Let’s go.”

“Yeah.”

Finally, I glanced at the shooting site and turned around.

“Yeji, are you jealous?”

“Nope.”

“No, I’ve seen you since elementary school.”

“… Did you get caught?”

“Stop talking nonsense and get on board.”

“Yes.”

I climbed into the van and continued my conversation with Team Leader Park.

“Room escape maze, did you hear that you have to survive until episode 5?”

“I heard. To get a reality show on Tvm.”

“I’m only in the middle of the 10. Don’t put too much pressure on me.”

“Don’t worry.”

“If it drops before episode 5, you can just film a reality show on You Tube and upload it.”

“?”

Team leader Park continued to speak in a calm tone.

“My older sisters will nag me a lot, but don’t be burdened.”

“···. Yeah.”

“Ah, there will be stains on Suho’s career, but don’t be too pressured.”

“…”

When I glanced at his expression, Team Leader Park had a smile on his lips.

“Chief, I’m curious.”

“Yeah. What is it?”

“Do you have the crown of your head?”

“… Yes?”

“Do you wash your hair as well when you wash your face? Do you use shampoo?”

“I wonder why.”

“Curiosity.”

I’ve been curious since a long time

It was cool to ask now.

“Somi, didn’t Suho teach you head manners yet?”

“What is it?”

“You can’t call a pakppak a pakppak.”

“Aha.”

“It’s not that I’m tight.”

“Chief, I like bald hair. My uncle also has bald hair.”

“Do you want some takoyaki?”

“Yes.”

At that moment, Team Leader Park continued as if he had remembered something.

“Somi.”

Soon, he stretched out his arm and pointed to the seat behind him.

“I left the escape room Maze script in the back seat.”

“Is that scripted?”

“Uh, it’s just a basic rule or format.”

“Aha.”

A new variety show that uses the production team of “The Brain” As it is.

So, for study, I monitored and drove regularly.

“… The rules are the same? With The Brain.”

“Oh, right.”

In the main game in the form of an escape room maze, individual self-reliance, team battle, and betrayal.

The last place designates a deathmatch opponent, excluding the winner.

“It’s just that the escape room maze format was added to The Brain.”

“Then, even if we keep winning deathmatches, we’ll go all the way to the finals.”

“The final will be a deathmatch too, right?”

“What.”

Then, whether it is joint or betrayal, what does the main game mean?

Deathmatch is just simple memory, thinking, and arithmetic.

‘…Is this the only way to win?’

This is just stupid people who get it wrong.

Is it possible to win only in a real deathmatch?

‘I think it was too easy…?’

Is there such a thing as a trap mission?

* * *

Oh, the back of my head is itchy.

Shall I call my junior?

“How did Somi survive until episode 5?”

Why, ask a middle school student to solve a puzzle that is difficult even for an adult like that?

No matter how much I think about it, I think I was beaten by the TVM entertainment director.

“Thank you for your effort!”

“Wow!!!”

Soon, the last filming of the web drama was completed.

Of course, the atmosphere of the Pinocchio studio staff was the best.

Views and reactions are hot, and all filming has been completed safely.

“Master Bishop.”

I approached Bishop Zhu and greeted him.

“Oh, manager Jung Soo-ho.”

“It’s been a while since I said hello.”

“Iknow, right.”

It seems that the day will come when I will see you at a broadcasting station sooner or later.

A lot of broadcasting stations also use freelance directors.

“Thank you for your hard work. Director!”

“You have to do it while editing. hahahaha.”

“Oh, yes.”

10 episodes of 15 minutes per episode.

Due to the nature of the web drama, the length and filming period were extremely short.

Apparently, it was perfect for Yeji’s acting skills, which hadn’t matured yet.

“Yeji learned a lot.”

“He’s already a great actor.”

“No, it’s not enough.”

“Did the manager see the first episode uploaded yesterday?”

“Of course.”

Director Joo Hyun-seong approached and started talking.

“Thanks to Yeji, I got a lot of subscribers to my channel. Thank you very much.”

“I’m more grateful.”

“Hmm, I can see that the manager cares about the members.”

“Yes? Of course.”

“No, it’s definitely different from other managers.”

“…”

To be honest, it was true that I felt different from the previous actors.

It feels like everything was raised by hand from debut until now.

“Hey, today’s the last shoot…”

Director Zhu carefully lengthened the tail of his horse.

“Ah, a dinner party.”

“It must be difficult, right? hahahaha.”

“No, of course Yeji must attend.”

“Oh, really?”

It’s probably like adding a making film.

It would be more important for Yeji to attend than me.

“But the CEO called me from the company. I’ll call Jiu.”

“Ah, CEO… You’re the queen, right?”

“Yes. I’ll stop by the office and attend the dinner, even if it’s late.”

“Oh, then I’ll call my aunt too.”

“Then better.”

The godmother of the drama world.

The relationship with writer Kim Go-eun was very precious.

A star writer has more casting rights than a director.

I gained more from this web drama than I thought.

I am close with writer Kim Go-eun.

An influx of teenage girl fans.

Until the proof of acting skills.

‘This is a win-win.’

Unsurprisingly, this time, it was a reverse bet victory.

Because the selection of the next work has increased more than 10 times.

Tiri-Ri-Ring-

At that time, someone’s call came on the smartphone.

「Room Escape Maze PD, junior Kim Ji-hoon」

“Hello. Jihoon-ah.”

-Senior, I have something important to tell you.

“Yes?”

Read at NovelNext.com

Kim Ji-hoon, who entered the service with this work.

It was really urgent, but very urgent.

– I really struggled when I was an assistant director.

“Why are you suddenly like that?”

– Somi. My hands and feet are shaking in fear of falling in episode 1.

“…”

Me too.

– I’m going to teach you the game and rules so that you don’t fall off the first broadcast.

“…”

To be honest, I also wish Somi went up.

Because I almost received a ‘thank you’ right away.

‘If Somi goes up, I’ll be happy too.’

I picked up my smartphone while scratching the back of my neck, which was starting to itch.

“Jihun-ah, I’ll just go up with my skills.”

-Yeah? As a middle school student…

“I’ll just think it’s a joke.”

-… I’m sorry, senior.

I couldn’t blame producer Kim Ji-hoon.

Rather, I was trying to do you a favor.

“Solar, I’m going to make it clean.”

-Ah yes.

“I don’t have the desire to put even the slightest bit of gossip on it later.”

– I’m so sorry.

“No, you can.”

To be honest, I’m not that clean.

If it had been the Dream Agency days, I might have accepted it right away.

‘If I get eliminated in episode 1 like this, it’s a disgrace.’

Then, someone’s voice came from behind.

“Huh.”

“What.”

Soon, Yeji opened her mouth with a smile on her face.

“The manager is really great.”

“What.”

“Just.”

No matter how much you think about it, it’s too wasteful.

Should I call PD Kim again?

“I didn’t know you cared for us so much. No, I did!”

“It’s not like that.”

“No, the manager is the best.”

“…Because it’s not.”

Missed such a great opportunity.

It’s a pity, I think I’m going crazy.

One of the co-representatives of Q&G label

Seo Yeon-jung’s worries have increased recently.

“Director Gam Seok-tae is gradually crossing the line.”

“Actually, I crossed the line long ago.”

CEO Seo received a report from the head of the public relations team and had a conversation.

“Jang Jang-seo, how much time do you have left for the script reading?”

“Now it’s right in front of you.”

“You’re trying to break an article on the same day.”

“Yes. Maybe.”

An idol member was selected through an open audition.

It can be embarrassing for the losers.

‘The purpose is to burst Eunseo’s mentality.’

The role of the sub-protagonist selected through an open audition.

That precious position was ‘accidentally’ filled by Eunseo.

“Chief Gam is so clever. He didn’t even leave behind a mask.”

“…”

On the day of the script reading, I had to act in front of numerous supporting actors.

It was impossible to shut the mouths of senior teachers and middle-aged actors.

“How about asking reporter Joe?”

“Who?”

“Reporter Cho Young-soo, I know that you have a relationship with manager Jeong Soo-ho.”

“…”

On this floor, his influence was considerable.

If you can find the string connected to the head of the surveillance headquarters.

“I’ll talk to manager Jeong Soo-ho.”

“Yes. CEO.”

Director Gam showed nervousness starting with his album work.

‘Does that mean the song is good?’

Composed by Ryusia, arranged by Diana.

The title track of the 5th regular album, ＜Be the One＞

A grand beat overlooked by an overbearing queen.

A strange dissonance in a melody that is not boring.

As the arrangement proceeded, the perfection of the song gradually increased.

“Manager Jeong Su-ho recommended it, right? This song.”

“That’s right.”

It was no longer a market where you could pick up a great song with an acoustic guitar.

5-, maybe 7 people need to stick together to barely get one masterpiece.

“Diana is really talented.”

He alone was able to arrange drums, guitar, accompaniment, and bass to a professional level.

He was really a genius in handling the equipment called ‘midi’ that occupied the record market.

“Jeongsu-ho, who discovered that talent, is also amazing.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

He must have imagined it in his head after hearing just one melody from Ryusia’s acoustic guitar song.

What kind of jewels will come out when you add Diana’s beat and arrangement on top of that.

“I could barely distinguish good music by listening to the melody.”

However, general manager Gam Seok-tae probably wants his album to fail.

During the time we worked together, I couldn’t help but feel betrayed.

Jeong Su-ho did not chase ‘money’ and drew a big picture.

He didn’t hold events and focused on acting and entertainment.

“Sales of Solar Goods are steadily increasing.”

“Yes. It is now the main income of the 2nd headquarters.”

Goods sold to fans make money as much as the event.

That’s probably why you’re planning a reality show.

Knock, Knock-

At that time, manager Jeong Su-ho visited the representative office as planned.

“Come in.”

Jeong Su-ho’s position was unrivaled in the 2nd headquarters.

“CEO, did you call?”

“I have something to tell you.”

The knights have doubts about Solar Jang Eun-seo’s acting skills.

Usually reporters don’t write offensive stories like this.

I explained everything to manager Jeong Soo-ho.

“Yes, I see.”

“… End?”

He scratched the back of his head as if there was no problem.

As expected, seeing this confident expression, I could understand.

‘Of course I expected it.’

Since when has he been drawing the big picture?

The day when I first tried to plug the book into JTBS?

Maybe the day I turned down the SBC private audition?

Did you expect the SBC courtroom to explode?

“What can I do? Eunseo has to prove her skills in the script reading.”

“He’s confident.”

“No, it’s not like that.”

“That humble attitude won’t change no matter how successful you are.”

“… Not really.”

Malicious articles claiming to have deprived other regular contestants of their chance at an open audition.

“It will probably explode on the day of the script reading.”

“…”

Usually reporters don’t set an edge against companies.

For them, too, information is a means of earning a living.

Of course, it is normal to want to harmonize with the company.

“We need to find the first reporter that Director Gam contacted.”

“Oh, right.”

“Can I ask reporter Jo Young-soo?”

“Yes. I’ll contact you.”

Confident tone of voice, as if he already knew without saying anything.

It was a plan to resign General Manager Gam Seok-tae, who was shooting internally.

‘It’s not a vessel to remain as a road manager.’

As expected, manager Jeong Su-ho was an ambitious man.

He was planning to stake a stake in the Q & G label.

He may be aiming for the youngest general manager position.

* * *

A few days later, in front of the dorm.

On the day of the script reading for JTBS broadcasting station 「Marrying into a chaebol family」.

I checked the entertainment news and frowned.

《Were famous girl group members properly selected in an open audition?》

“I wouldn’t have dared to do it if it was a large company, but this guy is good…”

I should hurry up and take Solar to the dream agency together.

It was, of course, on the day of Eunseo’s script reading.

I’m deliberately hitting it at the right time.

‘Because I’m a rookie.’

It was disgusting that I did it at the right timing to explode my mentality.

In the meantime, does the gentle tickle on the back of the head mean that it is a good thing?

“… But it’s like a family.”

Perhaps Director Gam will find it difficult for Solar to grow up on the acting stage.

First of all, I asked reporter Jo.

As long as we get the evidence, we’ll have to take down the head of the perimeter headquarters.

CEO Seo Yeon-jung is on my side, so I don’t know how much of a force it is.

Drooling-

Just then, the back door of the van opened and Eunseo entered.

“Is Eunseo here?”

“Yeah.”

Yes. Isn’t it enough to prove your skills anyway?

To be honest, I can’t be sure with my skills during practice.

‘My kids are the stage type.’

I’m sure you’ll do well

“Manager, why are you looking at me like this?”

“I?”

“Yes. From a while ago.”

“…”

Even if it’s not cheap, it’s pretty.

Then you can plug it into your work.

“You didn’t drink last night, did you?”

“Wow, is it a shaman?”

“Ate?”

“I haven’t eaten.”

“… Now I’m teasing you.”

“It’s fun.”

Looking at his bright expression, it seems like he hasn’t watched the entertainment industry news yet.

Behind her, Eun-seo was reading the script, unaware of anything.

“Then I’ll set out.”

“Yeah.”

Immediately, I started the engine and headed to the JTBS broadcasting station.

“Manager.”

“Oh, it’s Eunseo.”

“I saw the article too.”

“… Saw?”

“Please look at me from earlier.”

“…”

It’s crazy fast

“Do I look weak enough to care about that?”

“No.”

Among the members, you seem to have the strongest mentality.

In terms of physical strength, Yang Joo-hee is probably the strongest.

After a while, the scene of the script reading.

Numerous actors’ attention was focused on Eunseo.

An actress from an idol who took the top two spot with Lee Soo-yeon.

Well, should I acknowledge you as an actor?

“Is Eunseo here?”

“Yes, Assistant Director!”

Eunseo found her place with haughty steps.

“I heard you’re an acting genius?”

“Yeah?”

At that time, someone next to her talked to Eunseo in a quarrel.

An actor who would have taken the position of a sub female lead if not for the audition.

“My name is Bae Young-seon. You may know that.”

“Yes. Hello, senior.”

“Yes. I heard that you are good at acting? The director said.”

“I’m not sure.”

“…”

Actor Bae Young-seon, whose eyes are full of venom.

Eunseo ignored her and looked away from her.

“… Just try not to.”

Bae Young-seon spit out her words as if to listen intently and went back to her seat.

‘Eunseo, you’re very upset.’

His hands are shaking because he can’t control his anger.

I was anxious and anxious about when the squad leader would come out.

“Don’t be nervous. Eunseo.”

At that time, actress Lee Soo-yeon held Eun-seo’s trembling hand nearby.

“Bae Young-seon, it’s because you’re jealous.”

“Yes? Oh, yes!”

It’s not that I’m nervous, I’m angry.

When you’re angry, your emotions run high.

‘… It’s a piece of popcorn?’

Look at the itchy back of your neck.

Something… Something is happening.
