If You Raise Three Idols Well, They Will Confess Their Love

7 – Good eye

Episode 7

Cheon Jong-hoon, who was the final person in charge of the project and was about to produce his first girl group, felt like his head was standing on end.

This was due to the remarks of the person on the other end of the phone who claimed to be the manager of the late trot singer Sung Hoon.

“Well, there may have been trainees who did not participate in practice that day due to illness or personal reasons. However, I did not think that Team Leader Cheon, who is a perfectionist, would choose a trainee who was in poor condition during practice.”

“… .”

“I naturally inferred the team color because I was very interested in the album that Team Leader Cheon participated in. “I’m a fan of Team Leader Cheon.”

If you guessed what color the girl group you’re aiming for is, you can give it a hundred times and be convinced.

This is because what you pursue may have been reflected throughout your work without you even realizing it.

However, it was not at all understandable that he had identified four members among the numerous trainees who were exactly the same as him.

That’s because it was only yesterday that those four people were confirmed.

Naturally, Cheon Jong-Hoon was suspicious of infidelity.

I also thought that a vicious prank was being played to make trouble for me.

But that didn’t mean reality could be denied.

‘Confirming the four members was something that only happened in my head.

It has never been published anywhere else.

There is no possibility that a leak occurred.’

‘So, that guy who used to be Seonghoon’s manager should be seen as coming to the same conclusion as me, looking at all aspects of his trainees as if he were dissecting them, just by watching them briefly while filming on YouTube.’

Cheon Jong-Hoon was thrilled by that ridiculous insight.

“… “I guess it’s not a waste of time.”

That one word was pure praise that broke through his arrogant pride.

Jong-Hoon Cheon felt ashamed that he was in awe of the achievements of a kid who was not even known to the industry.

This was especially true because he had clear pride in his ability to be one of the top players in the industry.

Because of this, he spoke in a more aggressive and sharp voice.

“You may not know, so let me warn you. This number is very private. Of course, I only told people who had no reason to spread it to anyone else.”

Cheon Jong-hun opened his mouth like a wild beast exposing its teeth.

“Until now, that confidence has never disappeared. “But now, if something like this happens again, I’m going to think you spread it.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

“Okay, six days later. I can free up about 10 minutes at 5 in the morning. I’ll take a look at SS’s C-3 practice room then. “If you say my name, you’ll be able to come in.”

“Thank you so much for your time.”

“… I hope this is a fair price for wasting my time. “If I’m disappointed, I think I’ll try to find compensation somewhere else.”

“Shall I send you the trainee’s data?”

To Cheon Jong-hoon, that single word felt like a provocation.

It’s like a provocation with the meaning of ‘You need these guidelines to recognize value, right?’

“I do not need. “Because I only evaluate what I see with my own eyes.”

Cheon Jong-Hoon hung up the phone before hearing the other person’s answer.

It was a cheap act of pride.

His pride was clearly cracked to the point where he had to commit such a low-level act.

“Okay, let’s take a look. “The trainee who I would like to introduce with his outstanding perspective.”

***

… No, you have to pay the price and hang up.

When Cheon Jong-hoon abruptly hung up the phone, I was taken aback.

This is because I haven’t even been able to tell you what I want in return for introducing winter yet.

This guy doesn’t think that just letting SS have trainees is a sufficient favor, right?

If you think like that, it would be very difficult.

Because all of this quickly becomes unpaid work.

Isn’t there a point in going through all this trouble if I have something to lose?

As I was seriously considering whether I should call again and get confirmation about the price, even if it got a little ugly, Winter asked.

“… “What happened?”

“Team leader Cheon Jong-hoon said he would meet me at SS’s C-3 practice room in 6 days? I think I’ll accept it as long as I don’t look stupid at that time. SS is a place that doesn’t do public recruitment very often, so congratulations. hey.”

After three rounds of auditions called the Global Audition, SS takes in trainees from all over the world every few years.

As it is a giant dinosaur-like company that leaves a mark on the entertainment industry every time it moves, it was very unusual to be given an opportunity like this.

And this exceptional opportunity had a better chance of passing than the regular route, which required passing documents, 3 dances per genre, 3 songs per genre, camera test, personality test, and short-term training course.

Winter is a very good opportunity.

Winter, too, must have known this value, and after hearing my words, he put his head on my chest and ran around holding me tight.

It was strange, like a baby goat unable to control its own joy.

Seeing such a winter, I felt positive that everything would work out somehow.

Even if it seems like life is just rolling like this, how can you not come out with a hole to survive?

Chun Jong-hoon is a sad person if his pride is second to none, but he will not wipe his mouth.

I was confident because we were close enough to know each other’s personal phone numbers in the previous episode.

I guess they’ll just listen to my small request to introduce me to a job.

Therefore, I thought it would be okay to say it after I showed a good performance that day.

“Ahhh! thank you!”

“Okay, okay, okay, let’s calm down now.”

After removing the tangled Winter, I handed her the tissue I had brought just in case, and Winter wiped away her tears as if she had been waiting.

“Are you calm?”

“… yes.”

“Yes, I had a lot of trouble. Now go home and get some rest. “I will guide you when you come back to Seoul in five days.”

Winter nodded, her head bobbing like the sound of the wind.

Then he hesitated, as if he had something left to say.

“… I.”

“huh? Why, give me a ride to the station?”

“No, that’s not it… therefore”

The winter snow was spinning and my cheeks were turning red.

His hands were shaking as if he was quite nervous, and his mouth was opening and closing.

What on earth are you taking so long to say?

“What is it, did something fail again? I’ve already seen a lot of ugly faces, so just say it. “Maybe I can help.”

Until she made a deal with Cheon Jong-hun under the pretext of winter, her problems were not hers alone.

What would happen if you suddenly got into a conversation with Cheon Jong-hoon and said he was sick?

Then I’m just screwed.

So, I was willing to take care of him for 6 days as long as it wasn’t too much of a burden.

“that… Then please let me sleep for 6 days!”

“Just go home!”

I had expected to be asked to borrow at most 50,000 won more, but I felt like I had been slapped in the face by surprise.

I seem to keep forgetting, but you and I saw each other for the first time yesterday.

“Why are you asking me to sleep instead of leaving the house where hot food is served?”

“… “I don’t want to see Yeji until I audition.”

It is said that there is only one training center in the region where Winter lives, so if you try to practice, you have no choice but to encounter Yeji.

It is said that even if you don’t go to the training center to practice, you will meet Yeji somehow because you spend your daily life together in a small town.

And Winter said that if she saw such a prediction and talked to him, her heart would break.

He said that since he had set out to be with Yeji in the first place, he might have to give up on the audition.

He mocks himself and says he is a weak person.

It was truly a stupid idea.

However, it wasn’t something I couldn’t understand.

“I know that your sister feels rejected. I also know that my actions are an absolute nuisance. But if you allow it, I hope you give me a chance to bow down and pray to him.”

Winter bowed her head.

“If I lose my uncle now, I think I’ll go back to the way I was before. … “I am a helpless, useless person who only cares about what others think.”

Winter, who had been leading a passive life, seemed to need an opportunity.

An opportunity to take a step forward.

And it seems that the reason for that is now me.

As I was looking at the distant mountains, wondering what to do about this, winter suddenly grabbed the hem of my pants and started clinging to me.

“You said you would be the one to help! Just like you said, there is no one who can help me! Alone! I don’t even have any acquaintances! Losers, losers, idiots, loners, get rid of them!”

You’ve already used that wrappertory.

“You’ve already helped me enough!”

“I said it’s okay if I ask you a favor!”

“I told you that if that person becomes a burden, you will reject it and it will be over! I’m very burdened right now. So I’m going to refuse. Midwinter, please let go of this hand!”

“Please help me a little more than you already helped me! “I won’t forget this favor!”

“Letting go now and going your separate ways is repaying the favor. Mr. Midwinter!”

As I was trying to shake off Winter, I realized that people around me were buzzing and watching her skit.

It is a picture of a minor in school uniform in front of a motel, kneeling down and clinging to a man shedding tears.

This is a situation that deserves to be baptized with countless reports.

“Wait a minute, okay, let’s leave this and get up and do it somewhere else!”

“If you let go, it will run away! You’re going to change your number and dive in.”

“I won’t change my number! I won’t dive! “Just let it go for now!”

The convenience store part-timer started calling with a disgusted expression.

maybe. It seemed like they were reporting something like illegal prostitution to the police.

Winter held onto my pant legs and clung to me like a koala, as if she didn’t care how complicated the situation was.

Because of the disquieting gazes pouring in from the surroundings, I, who was so concentrated that it was difficult to make a rational decision, said as if it were to be done.

“I’ll pray to my sister! “If we pray together, it might work!”

As soon as those words were finished, Winter relaxed her koala pose and spoke while looking at me.

“… thank you “I will never forget this favor.”

I don’t know anymore…
