I Became a Producer Who Rewrites Idols

2 – Warehouse Release Group (2)

Long straight hair that seems to be slightly dyed brown, reaching down to the waist.

That was the style of trainee Choi Joo-yoon.

Ah, I dare say that she is the prettiest woman I have ever seen in person.

But what if she is a celebrity?

Hmm… ….

“Would you like a Mocha Gold?”

“…… “I’m fat, so do you have any Americano?”

That’s right, she’s a potential idol, so weight management is important.

She put the mixed coffee that she originally held in her hand back to her place.

She then put ground coffee beans in a paper cup and poured hot water boiled into a coffee pot.

She handed Choi Joo-yoon her coffee and then looked at her face again.

She is pretty among ordinary people, but

She was somewhat ordinary, even though she was a celebrity.

In order for her to actually be told that she is pretty as an idol,

The visual value had to be over 70.

But Choi Joo-yoon [Visual: 64].

“You must be very tired these days?”

“Yes… ? Uh, there was something wrong with her face…….”

You thought I was talking about dark circles or something?

Choi Joo-yoon quickly took out a small mirror from her bag and checked it.

Choi Joo-yoon was tired. She could tell by her [Fatigue level: 82].

Her fatigue includes simply being physically tired, but

Even when she was mentally exhausted, her fatigue level increased.

In other words, Choi Joo-yoon, who hasn’t really trained recently,

Her fatigue level was high due to mental fatigue rather than physical fatigue.

“It’s okay because her face is pretty.”

“Yes….”

Jooyun Choi, who hesitated for a moment at my words, immediately put her mirror in her bag.

Choi Joo-yoon was a typical vocal-specialized character in the game.

Before training, her default value was [Vocal: 87].

In other words, her vocals were exceptional.

However, if there is a problem,

Her dancing skills were said to be poor. She

Since she was in the lower grades of elementary school, she passed the audition and became a trainee. She said

She said everything she said [Dance: 35].

“I don’t know the details, but what did the producer in charge of last year tell you to focus on practicing?”

“Dance…. I’m good at singing, but I’m not good at dancing, so I’m told to just practice dancing….”

I was able to understand why Choi Joo-yoon’s project failed before release last year.

[Idol Producing] Game, when you produce a character specialized in a specific field,

… No matter how much you practice in areas other than your specialized field, your stats will not increase.

It went up, but it went up at such a low rate that it was not useful compared to the time invested.

“Manager, do you have that?”

“Yes? “Which one?”

Jung Song turned his head to the manager and asked.

“Because it is linked with a smartphone, it…. “There is a microphone that allows you to sing as easily as karaoke.”

“Oh, that? “The producer bought it four months ago with his own money.”

… What did ‘I’ buy with my expenses?

Well, it doesn’t matter since I’m going to use it now.

Honestly, I thought that Manager Ko Kang-tae was trying to chase me because of all these things.

Anyway, in order to handle the task given by Manager Ko Kang-tae well,

I needed this toy-like microphone.

When I connected it wirelessly to my smartphone, sound came out of the square speaker in the middle of the microphone.

Choi Joo-yoon suddenly has no idea what I’m trying to do.

… Manager Jeong Song-i looked like that person was acting like an asshole again.

“Why did you meet me~♪”

Is there a karaoke microphone?

Is there a song worth playing?

Ah, I have no choice but to call it.

I sang passionately with all my heart.

I could see the face of Manager Jeong Song-i, whose expression was clearly rotting, but I did my best to ignore it.

Even if I am good at idol training games,

I’m really bad at rhythm games.

To the extent that it is difficult to shoot a full game even in EASY mode,

Because I hit my head.

Of course, I also cheat.

After finishing one song,

I handed Choi Joo-yoon a microphone that looked like a toy. She was the one who reached out her hand and tried to receive it at that moment,

Her fingertips trembled.

I expected it all.

Because my actions now are,

[Idol Producing] In the in-game story, the producer

Because it was the method used when trying to bring Choi Joo-yoon back to his feet.

I just followed along.

“I will hold the microphone for now, but….”

Gently hold the back of Choi Joo-yoon’s hands,

She held Mike’s body in her grasp.

“Next time, Mr. Juyun will catch it?”

Choi Joo-yoon is staring intently at my face.

It was just a moment in the game,

… To be honest, it was my first time looking at such a pretty woman’s face, so I felt embarrassed.

So I just smiled sheepishly.

“Producer….”

“Yes.”

“I won’t fall this time… ?”

Choi Joo-yoon raised the corners of her mouth slightly,

I was in tears.

It seemed like he was forcing himself to hold back his tears because it would be difficult for me to cry.

Aside from being an idol, she was also a really good person.

[Current thoughts: I want to debut… !!]

To the extent of clinging to a producer with a bad reputation,

I guess it’s something I’ve been desperately wishing for for ten years.

Apart from me getting fired from the company,

I felt like I wanted to reward my efforts so far.

“Of course.”

There is no producer who would say no.

That’s how idols become motivated.

Even with such light words,

Choi Joo-yoon showed me her pretty smile.

Choi Joo-yoon brought her microphone close to her mouth.

When I play music on my smartphone,

“Why did you meet me~♪”

… He showed off his singing ability that is incomparable to mine.

In fact, it was not possible to accurately gauge singing ability using a karaoke microphone with a lot of echo and loud accompaniment.

Of course, it was still on a different level from me,

This is, after all, a work to help Choi Joo-yoon regain his confidence.

In other words, it meant singing happily.

Clap clap clap clap.

Me and Manager Jeong Songi applauded together.

Still, Choi Joo-yoon, an aspiring idol,

Without any sign of shame,

He made his right hand into a V shape and smiled.

“Please take care of me in the future, producer.”

Immediately after that,

Choi Joo-yoon bowed and greeted me again.

Her I also approach her and hold out her hand,

We shook hands.

… Wow, your hands are so soft.

This is the hand of an idol!

“Producer… ….”

Manager Jeong Song-i glared at me from behind.

Picked by my conscience, I immediately loosened my grip on Joo-yoon Choi.

Choi Joo-yoon smiled,

“I will train hard starting today… ! Producer, what should we do?”

He asked me.

… Joo-yoon Choi has a completely different attitude than when he first came in.

This was the same in games as well.

Basically, she was the type of person who trusted her partner endlessly once she trusted him.

That’s why she was even more traumatized by the collapse of the project of the producer she trusted last year.

“Take two days off.”

“… Yes?”

“Don’t study or train, just do what you want to do at home, even if it’s just a hobby.”

[Fatigue: 82] What can you do?

Training with high fatigue was not efficient, and there was even a risk of injury, especially in the case of dance practice.

“The only hobby I have is singing….”

“Don’t sing. “You should create a new hobby or something.”

“That… “Why?”

Maybe it’s because I’m young, but

In fact, it is one of the truths that applies not only to idols but also to all members of society.

“Work is not a hobby.”

Hobbies are fun if you enjoy them,

Work must yield results.

Stress that cannot be compared to a hobby.

Even if it starts as a hobby, it becomes extremely stressful later on.

What if you don’t have any other hobbies in that situation?

There is no way to properly relieve stress.

Moreover, because idols basically have to earn a lot of money while they are young,

It is high-intensity labor.

As long as we are human, we have to work while resting,

How well and efficiently you rest is also the key to success.

“That’s what I heard….”

Have the adults around us not taught even these simple things?

I held back a sigh.

“Okay, producer…” ! “Don’t sing or study for two days, and I’ll find something fun to do!”

“Yes. Then, see you again in two days.”

“Yes… !!”

Choi Joo-yoon packed his bag and went out of office number 302.

Actually, there was another purpose in asking me to create a new hobby.

Idol’s hobby is,

At the same time as giving the idol individuality,

… It is also useful for doing business.

For example, if gaming is your hobby, it is easy to have it appear in game advertisements or game TV programs.

You can just post videos on YouTube from time to time to communicate with your fans.

Of course, this was after awareness had risen to a certain level….

Still, things seemed to be going better than expected.

“Stop.”

Producer Cho Hyun-ho asked me to show my skills,

Berrys members—Joo Do-yeon, Go Na-kyung, Yang Hae-jin, and Jin Hae-sol sang and danced to their debut song together.

However, Jo Hyun-ho’s reaction was cold.

It was as if he had seen something he couldn’t see.

“Who is the leader?”

“Um, me…” .”

Jinhae Sol answered by raising her hand.

“You? “Actually, you’re the best singer out of all of you.”

“That’s not true, I’m just telling you to be the leader because you’re the eldest…” .”

“What? Producer Lim Boo-gil said that? Oh my gosh, really. Does any idol have a seniority order? Producer Lim Boo-gil is really below the standard.”

Cho Hyun-ho fiercely criticizes producer Lim Boo-gil.

Joo Do-yeon smiled brightly when she saw Jo Hyun-ho like that.

“It’s all because of that fire producer that we are like this!”

“… …. Well, the producer is the problem.”

“Right, right?!”

Producer Lim Boo-gil made a mistake.

They did nothing wrong.

There were four people who wanted that answer,

“Producer Lim Boo-gil is incompetent for even doing a project with you guys in the first place.”

I said something that wasn’t funny at all.

“Being a competent producer means selecting only successful people from the beginning and producing them. Like you guys, huh? “I can’t sing, I can’t dance, I can’t make people laugh, and I’m not really pretty.”

“Wow, producer! “You’re talking too much!”

“Then change. Just like producer Im Boo-gil abandoned. Once is difficult, twice is easy, right? “Producers other than me would probably say the same thing anyway.”

“… ….”

Lord Gona stepped forward and bowed her head.

“I’m sorry, producer. “We will all work hard, so could you please produce it?”

“…… Ugh, I can’t refuse it because it was a direct order from Manager Go. “Producer Lim Boo-gil, are you setting off a bomb somewhere?”

Unlike Go Na-gyeong, who bowed her head,

The concessionaire could not accept it.

“Na-kyung, unni! You have no pride?! Even if you hear the sound of a bomb, you stay still?! Producer, if it comes out like that, I’ll change it!”

“Hey, Haein, but…. This person is a popular producer these days…….”

“This person and Im Bu-gil aren’t the only producers in Lucky Seven! Then why don’t you just stay here? “I’ll talk to the manager again!”

“Hey, Haein…” !!”

Go Na-kyung grabbed Yang Hae-in’s shoulder,

Yang Hae-in swung away.

Joo Do-yeon and Jin Hae-sol also followed Yang Hae-in.

“Why don’t you go out with your friend?”

“…… Yes.”

Only 10 minutes have passed since producer Cho Hyun-ho took charge of the four people.

The four Berries went to change producers again.

***

Don’t sing.

Don’t study.

Just have a hobby that you enjoy.

It was Choi Joo-yoon’s first time hearing these words.

In order to succeed as an idol, you must not neglect practice.

Therefore, he had to train unconditionally, except on Sundays.

My parents once asked.

Will she become a celebrity or attend college as an ordinary person?

It doesn’t matter which one you choose, because it’s your life.

In either case, you should not think about resting.

That is the iron rule.

You can’t be lazy about anything.

So, resting is a sin.

‘You must be very tired these days?’

‘Take two days off.’

No. 302, No, when I heard producer Lim Boo-gil’s words,

It made me think that there was definitely something different about this person.

‘Why did you meet me~♪’

It was the same when I handed over the microphone.

Never before have I sung a song to the people at Lucky Seven Entertainment.

I have never used a karaoke microphone with so much echo.

From the beginning, Choi Joo-yoon somehow pointed out her singing skills and told her to practice more.

There has never been a case where a producer who is not a celebrity sings a song first and then hands it over.

The producer is neither a singer nor an idol, so it was natural that she wasn’t good at singing.

She didn’t really sing much.

Just one song.

She only sang one song,

It seemed like the congestion that had been building up for the past year was going away.

It felt like a lie that I forced myself to smile in front of her friends and family in order not to worry them.

I even had the illusion that producer Lim Boo-gil had given me back the smile I lost a year ago.

I took the city bus home from Lucky Seven Entertainment.

It takes approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes to get to the bus stop near my house.

It was never close, but

The forest of buildings shining outside the window looked interesting.

-I met you in my dream~♪

Idol music playing on the bus radio,

I wasn’t annoyed.

Producer Lim Boo-gil,

He will make his song come out on this bus radio.

I felt that way.

Producer Lim Boo-gil.

I kept thinking of that face on the bus.

He is definitely handsome.

However, if you are just looking at good looks, the active male idols you sometimes see at Lucky Seven Entertainment headquarters are more handsome.

It has charm.

Choi Joo-yoon, who until now had been told that she was only good at singing and had no charm,

I thought I was saying that this kind of person is attractive.

Gil’s hand touched when he handed her the microphone and when he shook her hand.

It seemed like that feeling remained in her hand.

‘I should try making coffee as a hobby…’ ?’

The coffee that producer Boo-gil Lim made and gave me earlier.

It was really tasteless.

Too much water was added so it just felt like bitter water.

Making instant coffee so tasteless was a talent.

And I heard that producers usually live on coffee.

Producers are just as busy as idols.

They say that if you hit the jackpot, the company will give you back your employees.

Until then,

It takes a lot of work, especially when producing a new idol.

Choi Joo-yoon, even for his own success,

No, at least in order to become an idol who is at least moderate,

Your producer had to work hard.

I couldn’t tell you not to work because you were tired.

Rather, Joo-yoon Choi should succeed,

He can get rid of the stigma of being a fire producer.

To Joo-yoon Choi and Producer Boo-gil Lim,

This project was a task that had to be accomplished.

… I haven’t heard anything about the exact concept yet.

[How to get started with coffee]

I searched on my smartphone and put the necessary items into the shopping cart at the online shopping mall.

Two days later, you have to give the coffee you brewed to producer Lim Boo-gil.

It may seem trivial, but

Because small things are surprisingly important.

He thought it would be nice if he could concentrate more on work thanks to the coffee he brewed.

‘Producer… ….’

It was still cold in early February,

Is it because the bus driver turned on the heater?

Choi Joo-yoon’s face felt hot.

***

Knock knock.

There was a knock on the office door.

Manager Jeong Song-i said, “Please come in.” Then the door opened.

“… ….”

No expression.

Unspoken.

Choi Joo-yoon still said hello when he came in,

This Jamcheori trainee just sat on the chair without even saying hello.

Even if you say hello first, “Hello.”

“Would you like a Mocha Gold?”

“… ….”

He didn’t even nod his head.

I couldn’t tell if he hated coffee.

So he just heated water in a coffee pot and gave me mixed coffee in a paper cup.

[Name: Eva Kang]

[Age: 24]

[Fatigue: 43]

[Vocal: 71 / Dance: 72 / Talking: 8 / Visual: 73]

[Current Thoughts: This producer is handsome. So what are you doing? You’ve ruined the project more than five times in the meantime…. Oh, by the way, I’m really bad at making coffee. This is my first time having such a tasteless mixed cupcake. Did the project get ruined like this?]

… Always this quiet character trait.

I have so many thoughts.

Anyway, I’m not that good at drinking coffee… ?

I was a little hurt….

I ruined the project. I don’t know, but I just made the coffee.

“That….”

“… ….”

“I understand your anxiety… ….”

It was difficult for me to talk because the other person was so unresponsive.

An idol who wouldn’t flinch even if pricked by a needle—Eva Kang was of half-Russian descent.

So, I have natural blonde hair.

Hey.

John Ye.

… It would be great if you would just open your mouth.
