[103] Higher(3)

I spent time in America with the members for a while.

The daily life of alternating between pre-predictive filming and Diana work.

Eventually, I listened to so much gangsta rap that I got used to it.

“Hana, it’s okay if you stop listening.”

“Isn’t it great?”

“Stop it because it’s good.”

“Yep.”

For work in Korea, I mainly used smartphones and laptops.

I usually spent time in the studio that Dohana rented.

Tiri-Ri-Ring-

Jiu called at the same time as always.

“Hanaya, choose a song until Yeji arrives.”

“Yeah.”

The day I reveal Dohana to Yeji for the first time.

‘How surprised.’

Soon after, I left the workroom and pressed the call button.

“Jiyu, did you prepare the photo shoot for Diana?”

-Yes. But the background is a bit strange.

“That’s right.”

-Eh, the background is Harlem, USA? Really?

“Right. I ordered.”

-Okay.

A strong belief that no longer questions.

It was thanks to the dungchok that never fails.

-Oppa, did you hear that an employee of the production company is going?

“Yes. He said he was coming to America.”

-That’s right. Because of LA distribution.

“Just share your schedule.”

-Okay.

An employee who comes over to work in the distribution of “First Love” In LA, USA.

In fact, it might not have secured a theater at all.

‘Royland opening date…’

Of course, it overlapped with 「First Love」.

Even though the target market is very different.

“Okay, how are Somi and Joohee these days?”

-Somi raises You Tube, and goes to school diligently.

“What about Yang Joo-hee?”

-My sister practices soccer very hard.

“… Stop it from happening.”

– It’s blocking.

“Block harder.”

-Okay.

At that time, Yeji waved at me from the end of the hallway in the studio.

“Jiyu, let’s hang up.”

– Oh, brother. Park A-young, what are you doing?”

“Who is that?”

– Parachute bag!

“Ah, new Cody.”

What should I do with a friend I don’t even know.

-I told you to reserve a place for a party, so you got a club room!?

“… Yea.”

Is it a day or two that our company’s new employees don’t notice?

Jia Han’s manager doesn’t notice, but she speaks Japanese well.

“If you look for it, there must be an advantage.”

– No, won’t it?

“Anyway, hang up.”

-Yes.

As soon as I hung up her phone, Yeji casually came up to me and crossed her arms.

“What? What are you doing? What if someone sees it?”

“Then it’s okay if I don’t see you?”

“Yeah. No!? No way.”

“Mmm.”

Even if we became close, I guess we became too close.

Is skinship like this natural?

“Chief, don’t spend time together in America.”

“It’s because you’re too busy filming.”

“I have time at night.”

“…”

Do you think Korea and the US are the same?

This is a country where guns are legal.

“I’ll buy you something delicious before I go back to Korea.”

“Really?”

“Yes. Avoid the schedule and contact me.”

“I know.”

Soon, the moment when Dohana is about to enter the waiting room.

“Yes.”

He called Yeji in a cautious tone.

A place where her members’ abbreviations are revealed for the first time.

“Don’t be alarmed, listen.”

“What?”

“Diana is the dohana.”

“Yeah.”

“What, is that reaction?”

“Yes. I knew.”

“…”

Did you know this?

“I just pretended not to know.”

“Ah.”

Judging by the expressionless expression on his face, it seems that he really knew.

Yes, but who else knows?

Did I act too carelessly?

“Do you know the other members?”

“I do not know.”

Seeing Yeji smile during the bash, a dejected laugh came out.

‘… Didn’t have to hide it.’

Now Diana is only willing to reveal it with the release of her solo album.

Tiri-Ri-Ring-

Then, I got a call from Korea.

“Yeji, go in first.”

“Yeah.”

I was going to ignore it, but just in case, I got a call.

“Hello. I’m Chief Jung Soo-ho.”

-Park Gwang-hyun, CEO of Dream Agency.

“…”

The person who was higher than the sky at the previous company.

The moment I heard that voice, I froze.

“Ah, hello. CEO!”

– I contacted you because I have something to tell you about my daughter.

“Yes?”

Did I do anything wrong to you?

– My daughter, Ai, joined Q&G as a new coordinator.

“Ah, Mr. Park Ah-young.”

-Yes. I hope nobody but you knows.

“… All right.”

It was an airborne unit, not a parachute.

* * *

Umji-yu stared at the rookie on his way to work.

“Hello everyone?”

“…”

First of all, it wasn’t the tone you would see after a few days at work.

She is a stylist employee selected from an official job posting.

‘Park Ah-young…!’

Umji Yu became a young kkondae, and she looked up to the new employee.

Doesn’t she come with a parachute bag from day one?

Today, a newcomer wearing a crop top to work.

She sneaked up on her shooter stylist and put her words to it.

“Sister Yumi.”

“Yes?”

“Are you okay?”

“Yeah. Do a good job and complete your schooling.”

“Where is the school?”

“Cowell.”

“… Whoa whoa.”

Among the Ivy League, it is the most recognized university for fashion.

Whether it was admission or graduation, they demanded a demanding and high standard.

‘This is it, it was an academic punishment!’

Where do you go to work because you’re sad about being a high school graduate?

“Sister, I can’t.”

“Huh? Moga?”

“Catch the new military discipline.”

“Ah, I was born like that.”

“Even if I can’t do it, I have to!”

Yumi unnie has good skills, but her personality is too weak.

So, two people under her met eyes, got married, and left.

At first glance, it seems that Ayoung Park came to Club George yesterday.

‘Because Suho oppa is secretly weak against a character like that.’

Although there is an unwritten rule between Cody and Manager.

I need to sort things out before I get back from the US.

“I’ve already asked the manager for permission?”

“What?”

“I’ll take the discipline.”

“Uhm, I see.”

Soon after, Um Ji-yu approached the new employee with a confident step.

‘I am the team leader!’

QNG has neither Jung Soo-ho as head of department nor Koo Hyun-shik as team leader.

Aren’t they the head and real power of the management team 1?

“Excuse me.”

“Yeah?”

Ayoung Park put down what she was doing and she said to herself.

“Sister, wait a minute.”

“Uh, sister? I’m twenty one…”

Wait, in the first place, the team leader at the company said that she was an older sister!

“Ayoung Park, how old are you?”

“Yeah. I’m twenty-four years old.”

Have you been drinking

“Bar, Mr. Park Ah-young.”

“Yeah!”

Is it because you are an artist?

I don’t think it will be easy to adapt.

“Our company is a place for art, so even if it looks free, it’s not too free.”

“Oh yeah?”

“Sure. I’m fine.”

“Oh! Then can I be comfortable in front of you?”

“… No.”

Please be a little uncomfortable in front of me.

“Not my sister! I’m twenty-one!”

“Aha, brother!”

“Chief Eom!”

“Yes. Team leader Eom, when will we have a dinner?”

“I’m going to catch the club again!”

“Uhm, parties are normal in America.”

“This is Korea!”

In an instant, Park Ah-young’s round eyes were wet.

“Haa… Yes, let’s have a dinner today.”

“Wow, I really like our company!”

“At the meat shop ahead of me…”

“I knew I would and already booked the club party room!”

“Lie down and stretch.”

“Hing.”

Should I say pure, all actions were unpretentious and honest.

A princess who grew up with love.

Why did Q&G apply?

“Mr. Ayoung.”

“Yeah?”

“Why did you come to our company? You came out of Cowell University.”

“Yes.”

She opened her mouth with a shy expression.

“I’m a regular member of the sunlight.”

“…”

Jiyu recalled the memory of her becoming a manager after being attached to Solar in the past.

In fact, even before she rose to fame, she recognized her charms and applied as a manager.

“Mr. Ayoung.”

“Yeah?”

She is just an ordinary petit bourgeois like herself.

An employee who joined the company attracted by the lovely Solar.

“Crop tee confiscated for 3 weeks.”

“Oh no.”

* * *

Hollywood on a fine day.

Leaving behind Yeji and Diana, who are staying at the film set.

I visited the Chameleon Films partner to handle business.

“Oh, the building is so big.”

Countless foreigners were busy walking around the lobby on the first floor of the huge building.

‘To think that the new Cody was the CEO’s daughter…’

Wouldn’t it be better not to know?

A boss came into our company.

Why did you only tell me

Even, no one knew that I was a parachute because I applied through a job posting.

Belt-

Then, someone texted me.

I sat nearby and checked my smartphone.

[Director! Where are you now?]

“Yes.”

As soon as I checked the chat, I immediately called.

“Hello. Yeji.”

-Chief! Where are you now?

“Aren’t you filming right now?”

-It ended today without NG!

“Oh yeah?”

Yeji continued the conversation.

-Spend some time with me. You’re going back to Korea soon.

“I’m at the Golden Trade Center now.”

– Oh, I’ve been there! It’s a huge building.

“That’s right. There are a lot of people here.”

– Can I go with my friend?

Have you made friends in America?

“It’s okay if you come with the old team leader.”

-Um, then I’ll go with the team leader!

“Okay.”

She hung up the phone and checked again with today’s business partner.

An employee from Chameleon Films on a business trip.

Of course, it was related to the distribution of 「First Love」.

“Investor Jeong Soo-ho!”

Soon, an employee dispatched from Korea greeted them from afar.

“Hello.”

“Nice to meet you.”

Is it easy to secure overseas theaters with purely Korean films?

He wasn’t even a famous director abroad.

At least, thanks to Asia Prince, I made it.

‘Let’s really hit the jackpot this time.’

As an investor, as Eunseo’s manager, I really hope she succeeds.

Honestly, it’s better if it’s not just successful, but it’s a super hit.

“Can we screen First Love in LA, USA?”

“I will do my best.”

“Thank you.”

In fact, it was before the filming had even started yet.

“If it’s not today, it’s probably going to be difficult, right?”

“Yes. The masterpiece will come.”

“…”

A similar season, “Royland” Took all the big pies.

Since they were competing for the rest, it was necessary to secure it in advance.

“Hello.”

Then, someone called from behind.

“It’s from Movie Talk.”

“Oh, how are you?”

A much younger staff than expected greeted me warmly.

“My name is Jay from Movie Talk.”

“Nice to meet you. This is…”

We exchanged greetings lightly and sat down nearby.

‘… It won’t be easy.’

A sharp look that flashes through a smiling face.

It wasn’t just an employee who was rolling in Hollywood.

“Shall we check the conditions first?”

“…”

We had a meeting right away according to the agreement.

“Director Kim Chun-soo, you only have one filmmaker for a commercial film.”

“Instead, it was a huge success. Revenge Girl gathered 8 million viewers.”

“Yes. It was successful in Korea.”

“…”

Have you ever come to fight?

“Honestly, things have changed a lot.”

“Yeah?”

“Royland has secured too many theaters. I don’t think it will be easy.”

“Oh, well.”

Could you tell me something like that before we meet?

The staff of the production company came by plane.

“We have no intention of being too greedy.”

“It seems difficult though…”

At that time, a big and small commotion broke out in the distance.

A large number of people slowly approaching.

Cheers erupted at the Trade Center.

“Kyaaagh—!!!”

“Vivian!!!”

Soon after, a group of women slowly walked toward us.

Yeji and Diana come with team leader Koo Hyun-sik.

And then, the heroine of Royland appeared.

‘… Vivian Taylor.’

Even in Korea, everyone knows the actress when they see her face.

Did coming with a friend mean coming with a world star?

“Hello, manager.”

“Ah yes!”

I accidentally said hello to a Hollywood actress.

There was no scene at the last set, so there was no chance to say hello.

“I heard a lot from Yeji.”

“Are you talking about me?”

“Yes. It’s so hot.”

“Well…?”

Yeji pushed her lightly from her side and spoke her words out.

“Chief! Does the meeting take long?”

“Ummm, no.”

“Then can I wait by the side?”

“Okay.”

But if you sit there, it will be noisy and it will be difficult to conduct a meeting.

“I-over there…”

The Movie Talk employee looked at Vivian and opened her mouth.

It was not easy for the distribution company staff to meet the actress in private.

“I-I didn’t know she had a relationship with Mr. Vivian.”

“…”

I’m not familiar with you, I saw you for the first time today.

“Aha, you didn’t know!”

As if she wanted everything at this time, the staff of the production company quickly brushed her off.

“This person raised the Royland sub female.”

“Ah…! This person is then.”

“That’s right! Chief Jung Soo-ho, Solar’s father!hahahaha!”

“Um, that’s right.”

“Then shall we talk again from the beginning?”

“Yes, yes.”

Currently, Movie Talk’s number one customer is Royland.

The rapport relationship has taken a strange turn.

Because that person behind Vivian, behind Wisdom, behind me, his voice got louder.

‘This is a lion language…’

Do you call it ho-ga-ho-ho-ga-how?
