I Became a Producer Who Rewrites Idols

26 – Simultaneous Progress (2)

Cursed Dolls—Choi Ju-yoon, Kang Eva, Gong Si-on.

Afternoon Sweets—Jo Min-joo, Koo Ga-eun.

Berries—Joo Do-yeon, Go Na-kyung, Yang Hae-in, Jin Hae-sol.

With manager Jeong Song-i, who is my closest friend in the office, other than idols,

Producer Jo Hyun-ho, who was very talented and helped me in many ways and temporarily took charge of Cursed Dolls.

And producer Jeon Geun-young, producer Jo Hyun-ho’s ex-girlfriend and Berryz’ temporary producer,

… Everyone was in the conference room together.

[Name: Jinhaesol]

[Current thought: We have to go up now like these guys… !!]

[Name: Gong Si-on]

[Current thought: They abandoned our producer and hurt him?]

[Name: Jo Min-joo]

[Current Thoughts: As expected, there is something different about those who have even debuted.]

The Cursed Dolls look at Berries unfavorably,

Berries thought that they should rise as high as the Cursed Dolls.

Afternoon Sweets, I just found the two active celebrities a bit fascinating.

Cursed Dolls, Berries, Afternoon Sweets, etc.

I had to set the production direction.

Originally, I was planning to just take turns talking to each group.

… Manager Ko Kang-tae gave me the use of this conference room and told me that I had no choice but to gather together.

I felt good that the company had expectations of me.

“Then let’s start the meeting.”

“”Yes!””

“First of all, Berries, are you okay? “Even the mentally difficult parts.”

“Yes, it’s okay…” .”

It’s been two weeks since Berry’s left producer Jeong Jeong-jun.

As I instructed producer Jeon Geun-young two weeks ago, the girls received psychological treatment and trained in a somewhat relaxed manner.

[Name: Jinhaesol]

[Fatigue: 37]

[Vocal: 64 → 70 / Dance: 46 → 51 / Talking: 48 → 50 / Visual: 67 → 72]

[Name: Yang Hae-in]

[Fatigue: 29]

[Vocal: 41 → 47 / Dance: 38 → 43 / Talking: 65 → 70 / Visual: 60 → 64]

[Name: Go Na-kyung]

[Fatigue: 40]

[Vocal: 58 → 62 / Dance: 45 → 51 / Talking: 62 → 65 / Visual: 65 → 71]

[Name: Joo Do-yeon]

[Fatigue: 42]

[Vocal: 53 → 58 / Dance: 41 → 46 / Talking: 68 → 72 / Visual: 61 → 65]

The effect of training was shown by taking proper rest rather than forcing students to take lessons.

Fatigue is also stable.

You should definitely train when fatigue is low, and the results will be good even if you invest the same amount of time.

“F, producer….”

Jinhae Sol said, raising her arms slightly, as if shyly.

“Yes, Mr. Haesol.”

“That… , When will our new song be released… ?”

It seemed like Berryz wanted to get active as soon as possible.

Producer Jeong Oh-jun also had me train him all the time, so he must be a little anxious.

… If I had put him to sleep and fed him properly, his training would have been properly reflected in his abilities.

I wasted time and had little results from the training.

“I think it will be around next month.”

The abilities of Berryz members were not yet sufficient to be exported to the market.

Moreover, the police investigation is not yet complete.

It seemed to take time because the police had to start an investigation into the dark website as well.

“Okay…. What will you do with the concept and the new song itself? ?”

“We will proceed as originally planned.”

“Oh, that’s right…” ?”

I planned to use the same work that Jeong Oh-jun had done.

… That bastard committed a s*xual crime, but the production itself wasn’t bad.

In fact, in the original [Idol Producing] Game, Berryz’s debut song was the new song chosen by Oh Jung-jun.

If Oh Jung-Jun had been an ordinary producer and not a s*x offender, Berry’s would have sold to some extent.

However, the recording itself needed to be redone.

Your vocals will feel completely different before and after you increase your abilities.

“I’ll continue with the afternoon sweets as is.”

“Yes.”

[Name: Jo Min-joo]

[Fatigue: 37]

[Vocal: 49 → 55 / Dance: 44 → 52 / Talking: 47 → 56 / Visual: 57 → 64]

[Name: Gu Ga-eun]

[Fatigue: 19]

[Vocal: 41 → 49 / Dance: 47 → 56 / Talking: 40 → 50 / Visual: 68 → 72]

There was no problem with fatigue, and the ability level was steadily increasing.

Unlike Berryz, she had a rapid growth rate considering that she was originally an ordinary person.

“Mister, I have a question.”

“Yes, Minju.”

“What do you say, concept? What does that go for?”

“Oh, didn’t I tell you that?”

“Yes.”

When I thought about it, I realized I didn’t say anything.

I just told you to make a vlog at school.

The afternoon Sweets Vlog was as expected as I expected.

It quickly became a popular video on YouTube, and a fan base for Afternoon Sweets was created.

If you build a fan base before your debut, it will be much easier to rise to the top when you debut.

Well, even if there is nothing like Cursed Dolls, there is no big problem.

“The concept of afternoon sweets is everyday life.”

“… Yes? Daily life? What should an idol say…. “Isn’t that giving an illusion?”

“It’s an illusion, but it gives a closer illusion. Well, there is a really handsome or pretty student in the class next to me. “This too is a fantasy, but it’s a bit closer to everyday life, right?”

“Ah, so the vlog… ….”

“Yes, afternoon sweets, you are going to feel like a pretty girl in the class next to you.”

Jo Min-joo and Gu Ga-eun both nodded.

Now all that was left were the Cursed Dolls.

“Cursed Dolls is starting to work on a new song.”

“Yes! Will the producer take over again?”

… Gong Si-on openly tried to push out interim producer Cho Hyun-ho.

Producer Cho Hyun-ho’s face seemed to darken slightly.

Still, he negotiated hard with event companies and broadcasting stations for the Cursed Dolls.

“I will choose the new song itself. Of course, I will write the lyrics this time too.”

“The concept continues like this, right?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

Lucky Seven Enter I asked roughly how often idols release new songs.

It was usually 3 to 4 months.

It was like releasing one song per quarter.

Rather than collecting several songs and releasing a proper album,

The strategy was to continuously maintain awareness of the group’s brand by releasing one or two songs into the market.

“Then we will end the meeting.”

“”Yes!””

After that, we only discussed trivial matters.

After finishing the meeting, I got up and headed to office 302.

***

“”Hello…” !!””

The day after the general meeting.

Afternoon Sweets members—Jo Min-joo and Koo Ga-eun filmed a vlog in the classroom during school lunch time.

“Afternoon!”

“It’s afternoon…” !!”

“No, Ga-eun…” . “When I say afternoon, you decided to say sweets.”

“Oh, that’s right, that’s right. Yet again!”

“Afternoon!”

“It’s afternoon…” !!”

“…… Ga-eun, are you kidding me?”

“Oh, no… !!”

Jo Min-joo playfully held Goo Ga-eun’s cheeks in her hands and stretched them out.

It was all a script planned in advance.

“It’s Ga-eun’s turn today. “What did you bring?”

Because this is a snack mukbang vlog, what kind of snacks to eat was also an important factor.

In reality, they agreed on the items in advance and brought them, but the setup was that Jo Min-joo and Gu Ga-eun each brought back the snacks they wanted.

“Sachertorte!”

“Now, now…. What?”

“Sachteret!”

“The name is different from before… ?”

“I’m confused too… !!”

“You bought it and brought it back….”

Gu Ga-eun took out the Sachertorte from under the desk.

Jo Min-ju cut the Sachertorte into two pieces using a plastic knife prepared in advance.

“But is cake also a snack?”

“I don’t know! On the Internet, cakes are also said to be sweets… !!”

“Really? Where on the internet?”

“Wiki!”

“Turn off Wiki…. You saw something strange there last time…….”

Most of the time, Gu Ga-eun said something stupid, and Jo Min-joo pointed it out and made jokes.

While eating snacks.

I heard from producer Lim Boo-gil that it is more important to eat happily like a real high school girl rather than eating beautifully.

Hold on.

Jo Min-ju pressed the button on the camera and finished filming.

Because the school gave us permission to film only before classes started, during lunchtime, and after school,

We cleaned up the filming site as quickly as possible.

“You guys are really getting better!”

“That’s right! “I will buy it as soon as the debut song comes out!!”

“Thank you.” “Thank you… !!”

A large number of students gathered around the classroom where the filming took place and watched.

As I heard from Producer Lim Boo-gil, I also paid attention to reputation management by being as kind to them as possible.

The four female students who bullied Gu Ga-eun were almost forced to transfer to another school.

Goo Ga-eun’s father also filed a large-scale lawsuit against her school and the parents of her four female students.

The four female students already had a bad reputation within the school, so the reaction was mainly one of relief.

After explaining her situation to her homeroom teacher, Jo Min-ju moved to sit right next to Gu Ga-eun.

When the two of them pressed their butts against her chair to prepare for class,

Jo Min-ju poked Gu Ga-eun on the shoulder.

“Why… ?”

“Ga-eun, what do you think, uncle?”

“Producer… ? Hmm… …. “What do you think? The producer is the producer.”

“Don’t you just feel anything?”

“Emotions… ? I do not know… ….”

Jo Min-ju grinned.

And she stroked Gu Ga-eun’s head.

“Why are you acting like this all of a sudden…” ?”

“Ga-eun, let’s succeed together.”

“Yes!”

In the battle for producer Lim Boo-gil,

Her only friend, Gu Ga-eun, is not her own rival.

Jo Min-joo was very happy about that fact.
