[43] Next Level (5)

JTBS broadcasting station.

The opening scene of the drama flowed in a calm atmosphere.

Soon, the emotional OST that flows calmly.

The song Yeji sang was the main theme song.

Sigh-

I looked at Director Yoo with startled eyes.

‘What is it, a surprise?’

As if he had predicted it in advance, he smiled while looking at me.

You really pushed Eunseo a lot in this drama.

‘… I hope the ratings come out well.’

A man driving a fancy supercar on the highway.

The successor of Shinhwa Dairies visited the cow farm for some reason.

Kiki-Ik-

The male actor took off his sunglasses and spotted his sister at the cattle ranch.

-Didn’t I say I won’t let you go if you run away just one more time?

– Oppa, what is life?

– Oh, what nonsense are you talking about again…

– Listen for a second.

From the first scene, Eunseo created a light atmosphere through Tikitaka with the lead actress.

A scene that the editorial staff has already seen hundreds of times.

The staff’s interest was not in the content of the drama.

“Isn’t the first tally out yet?”

“Yes. Not yet.”

In fact, it wasn’t the script or directing that determined the ratings for the first broadcast.

Actors, buzz, and promotions.

I thought everything was above average.

Soon after, the employee who was checking the aggregation site swallowed and said.

“I’m out!”

All staff and actors looked at him and waited for his next words.

“10 minute ratings…”

“Tell me quickly. Quickly.”

[JTBS Conglomerate Marrying 6.4%]

The first tally, only 10 minutes, the viewership rating was 6%.

The staggering shame left the staff speechless.

“6 Pro…?”

Then, a huge cheer erupted.

“Waaa—!”

“It’s done!!!”

“Director, I love you!!”

“Me too man!”

Needless to say, it was the highest viewership rating in the same time period.

I heard that the SBC courtroom that aired a while ago is only 2%.

“Congratulations, Eunseo.”

“I’m still bewildered.”

“I know.”

There was also a Yeji web drama, but it felt different from a TV drama.

‘… Reverse bet this?’

In the meantime, the belief that it works in the drama version of Juksun.

Once again, I realized the sure effect of the cheat key.

“Manager Jeong Soo-ho.”

Just then, someone came and sat on the chair next to me.

“Lee Soo-yeon.”

“Thanks.”

We’ve been in a relationship since Dream Agency.

It was the first time that the work I recommended did well.

“Actually, SBC international lawyer Mr. Kim, it was just before signing the contract.”

“Yes. I heard.”

“Recommendation for this drama, I really thought a lot.”

“…”

If I go back to the parent company with Solar.

At that time, there must be someone who will warmly welcome you.

“I wish you well in the future.”

“Me too.”

In addition to the staff of Management Team 4, which was disbanded last year.

It’s okay if there’s at least one person on my side in the company I’m going back to.

‘Actress Lee Soo-yeon was lucky.’

＜Top Idol＞

Would this timing have come about if I hadn’t filmed together?

I hope that the day will come when I will give other actors a good chance.

After a while,

After the first broadcast, I checked the last tally.

“… What.”

For a moment, the staff looked at me as if they were seeing a ghost.

“The highest viewership rating for the first broadcast was 10.1%.”

“… It’s a waste.”

Achieving an average viewer rating of 10% eventually failed.

Dividends are meaningless by betting too much money.

“It’s just a waste of 0.1% difference!”

“Yeah?”

The employee who led the ratings bet approached me and opened his mouth.

“I’ll gladly give it to you. Half the stake.”

“?”

Was it the highest rating standard?

You suddenly got a lot of money.

“Since Soo-yeon walked, the other half…”

“Ahahahaha, it would be nice to make a donation.”

“You can donate.”

At that time, Lee Soo-yeon approached and started talking.

‘No, I can’t say anything.’

I need to take care of the money before I get swept away.

“But the staff gave it to me, so I’ll use it in a good place…”

“Is it a good place? There is a welfare center I know.”

“… Ah.”

The good place was in my parents’ pocket.

“It would be nice if you donated. It would also promote the drama.”

“Yes. I like it too.”

“Then shall we donate?”

What are you talking about.

“Oh, then, shall we donate in the names of actress Lee Soo-yeon and team leader Jeong Su-ho?”

“Yes. Include the words of all the drama staff.”

“??”

My opinion is…?

Then, actress Lee Soo-yeon looked at me and opened her mouth.

“What will manager Jeong Soo-ho do?”

“… Me?”

What if I ask the staff while they are all watching?

I want to get the 1 million won I bet back.

“Whoa, I’ll donate too.”

The staff raised their thumbs and shouted out Soo-yeon’s name.

“Whose idea is the donation?”

“It’s manager Jeong Soo-ho.”

“Wow, as expected, Jung Soo-ho!”

“…”

That person seems to be teasing me right now.

* * *

Next day.

In the morning, actress Lee Soo-yeon sent me a text message.

“… Are you kidding people?”

I heard that a massage chair was installed in my name in the company break room.

Suddenly, I donated 1 million won, and I also released a massage chair to the company.

“Anyway, because the drama went well.”

Aside from Solar, one of the celebrities who believes in me the most.

Maybe, Luna and Ryusia are the next hitter.

Giik-

I parked the van in front of Solar’s accommodation and organized my schedule.

First of all, Jang Eun-seo and Shin So-mi have individual schedules.

Solar and Luna’s album in the process of producing a follow-up song.

And, even the upcoming idol track and field athletic meet.

Tiri-Ri-Ring-

At that time, there was a call from Chief Chul-Min Park.

-Suho, did you see the article on Eunseo?

“Yes. I saw.”

The driving force that led to 10% ratings without falling.

Eunseo successfully debuted with favorable reviews.

-The reaction to the drama right now is no joke. Eunseo’s CF…

“Ah, Chief, the members are coming down.

-Yes. Drop by me when you go to work.

“All right.”

Drooling-

Subsequently, the members opened the door of the van and all raised their belly button greetings.

“What are you guys doing without riding?”

“The castle is ruined!”

“…”

Yeji smiled bashfully and opened her mouth as a representative.

“I’m saying hello because I’m grateful!”

“Keuheum, I’m busy, so get on quickly.”

“Ah, they say it’s good and it’s good! Our manager oppa is arrogant!”

“… Get on.”

Somi continued her conversation in an excited voice.

“Eunseo, did you know that you became a JTBS star in just one day?”

“Sign?”

“Yes. The cover photo is on the main screen!”

“…”

Come to think of it, there weren’t any particularly popular works on JTBS this year.

“The highest rating is 10%!”

“…It went well.”

Somi looked at me blankly and opened her mouth.

“As expected, wasn’t that the result you already expected?”

“Yes?”

“Something seems peaceful. It’s been less than a day.”

“…”

Everyone has anxiety about whether the work will be released.

“To some extent I expected it.”

“Wow.”

This time, because it didn’t deviate from the law of dungchok at all.

Honestly, I expected it to come out.

Because the SBS drama was ridiculously ruined.

“Is your manager oppa really a genius?”

“It’s not like that.”

“You’re humble today too.”

“…”

Shin So-mi, you are a much more genius.

Normal people can’t even do double digit multiplication.

“Okay, I’ll go to the practice room first.”

“Yes.”

Soon after, she unpacked in her office upon arrival.

“Oppa oppa! Have you installed a massage chair in the break room?”

“Ah, that’s…”

Jiyu continued the conversation with a excited expression.

“Is it to celebrate promotion to team leader? Or to celebrate the success of the drama?”

“Lee Soo-yeon bought it for me.”

“Wow, that’s great…!”

Umjiyu, you seem to be imagining something crazy right now.

“It’s bullshit, I bought it.”

“Right?”

“Uh. Of course not.”

I can’t say anything in front of him.

I think I will slip up in front of reporters.

“Jiyu, I’ll leave Eunseo filming to you. If anything happens, call me.”

“Yeah. But oppa, did you know that he has the sunlight today?”

“Yes?”

“Just don’t tell me the location.”

“…Were you kicked out?”

“I think so… Huh.”

Take care of your schedule after work.

I wish my brother and I would stop fighting.

“Yes. Fighting.”

“Yeah!”

Knock, Knock-

Soon after, I knocked on the knock and opened the door.

“Chief Park, did you call?”

“Suho, since the morning, Eunseo’s CFs have been flooding in.”

“Okay?”

“I don’t know anything else, but it’s kind of hard to refuse cosmetics and famous brands.”

“It should be done.”

“Right…?”

Director Park looks at me strangely.

Are you anxious about catching a CF without my permission?

“I trust the manager’s judgment.”

“Ok?”

“It’s okay if you just schedule comfortably.”

“…”

Director Park tapped me on the shoulder and pointed up with his finger.

“Let’s smoke a cigarette.”

“Yeah.”

Usually, celebrities are recognized even if they succeed in only one project a year.

One drama, one variety show, and one album.

To achieve that one success, he endured the arduous life of a trainee.

Cases that popped up as soon as debuted like Solar were definitely rare.

“Whoa, what the hell are you?”

“Yes? All of a sudden?”

“Eunseo’s drama, yes. It can come out. But how does it get 10%?”

“Iknow, right.”

I was well aware of how difficult it is to launch an actor.

To be cast in that huge competition rate.

Becoming a star by overcoming many situations.

When a drama pops up, it goes bankrupt, and I endured it while suffering ridiculous bullying.

“I was lucky this time.”

“…”

He lit a cigarette and added a word.

“Chief, I was the same at my previous company.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Then and still I did my best.”

“…”

It just slightly twisted the view of the entertainment industry.

It’s better if you get support from the tickling back of your head.

“I have a feeling. What will rise and what will fail.”

“Wow, that’s crazy.”

“That’s it.”

I thought our Eunseo drama was also a common dog poop network conglomerate.

“You see that?”

“Yes. It just feels right.”

“Oh my gosh.”

It was the same when I saw Solar, Can’t play high notes, Team Leader, Hellchang, Foreigner, and Jammin.

“You can just see the cotyledon.”

“You really see that?”

“… Roughly.”

We smoked cigarettes together and pictured the same future.

Although the ideas are different, the goals are almost the same.

Wouldn’t it be a bright tomorrow for the Q&G label?

Recently, the fan cafe ＜Sunlight＞

It was truly a festive atmosphere.

Most of the newly debuted girl groups have a mystical concept.

He is extremely reluctant to consume his image outside of group activities.

However, Solar was different.

＜Top Idol＞

For the fans who came in from, individual activities like rain during a drought.

Shin So-mi, a genius girl who is unprecedented in the entertainment world.

Jang Eun-seo was recognized for her rich emotional acting.

If this trend continues, the only thing left is for the size of the fan cafe to grow.

With my daughter, with my daughter-

Jaeha exchanged greetings with the members who had arrived earlier.

About a dozen executives all arrived.

“Now, gentlemen. The time has come.”

“Oh oh…!”

“ISAC is right in front of you.”

“Hamo Hamo.”

ISAC, where dozens of idol groups participate.

It was a war not only for the members but also for the fans.

“Mineral water with a placard or solar photo on it.”

“We also need to decide on a slogan.”

How great is the support of fans for sports players.

Perhaps the same is true for idols who compete in athletics.

“Hey, cafe manager. Umji Gongdu.”

“Yeah?”

Why is my brother here?

“He sneakily asked me where he was.”

“So what?”

“Of course I cut it.”

“Nice job.”

“But you keep saying that you are the Gaija.”

“What’s the gye?”

If it’s Solar’s manager, then of course it’s a person in charge.

But the schedule is posted on the public website anyway.

“Because I’m a Gyeja too. If you need any information, ask me.”

“Oh oh…!”

The faith of cafe members increased by +1.

Among them, one of them opened his mouth excitedly.

“You know what? Right now Isolation is arrogantly shouting overthrow Solar.”

“Huh, Isol ever!”

“What is it, Isol?”

“Yeah?”

“Take that bastard out.”

“Yes?”

Fans of Isolation called it ‘Isol’ for short.

Jae-ha was able to discover the spy through his numerous virtues.

“Oh, that’s unfair! It’s framed!”

“Shut up! The goods on your smartphone are from DK Music!”

“… How did you know?”

“Dukjil for a day or two?”

Someone gave up studying civil servants and came to this place.

“Tell me honestly. If you don’t want to search.”

“…The past is the past.”

“Yes?”

There were also fans who went back and forth between the two teams like this.

Sometimes, the cheering fever among the groups became overheated.

“Then become a double spy.”

“That’s a bit…”

“Or, shave your head and show your passion.”

“… I’ll double spy.”

Jaeha smiled and continued the conversation.

“Isolation cheering slogans and placard phrases.”

“I know.”

* * *

Time passed,

One midsummer day when mosquitoes are rampant.

I drove a 17-seater van and headed to the front of the company building.

A total of 9 members of Solar and Luna.

Five employees, including Cody and Manager, gathered in one place.

“Chief, can we go to the gym?”

“No. Playground first.”

“Yep.”

The junior got into the driver’s seat first and started the van.

Soon after, I glanced at the members trying to board the van.

“Yumi, isn’t there too much exposure today?”

“Ah. The fans also have something to look forward to.”

“Hmm.”

A crop top that shows off your abs or waist.

Her collarbone line and even her limbs were coolly exposed.

‘Am I the only one who sees Confucianism?’

Raising a new girl group is originally a bit cautious.

“Manager brother.”

At that time, Yang Joo-hee approached me without getting into the van.

“Juhee, why?”

“I heard it’s a lunch box for lunch today.”

“Right. Fans of other groups prepared it.”

“Oh, the sodium ratio there is so high. How could a person eat something like that?”

“… Usually eat well.”

“No way.”

Do you see all food as tandanji?

“I was told to compete in all but rhythmic gymnastics today.”

“Yeah. That’s not something you can do.”

“But isn’t long-distance running a bit like that?”

“What’s wrong. Is your leg hurt?”

“No, it’s not like that.”

Juhee frowned and opened her mouth.

“Today is not the day for cardio. Muscle loss came.”

“… Get on quickly.”

“Preload.”

Of course, Joohee was the member fans expected the most.

Seeing that gifts are sent as nutritional supplements or proteins.

‘All the fans knew that you were in hell.’

Solar fans must have had a really hard time too.

Is it easy to become a fan of Hellchang girl group?

Drooling-

Soon, the moment Yang Joo-hee climbed into the van, the van shook.

‘Crazy, what is it?’

Can you do this because one person rode it?

How many people are on board now?

Just then, Somi’s voice came from inside the van.

“Joo-hee, leave her sandbags and ride.”

“Oh, I forgot.”

Jjiik-

Yang Joo-hee dismembered the black objects on his wrists and ankles.

“No, it’s Juhee.”

“Yes?”

Why are you wearing a sand bag?

I think I saw that in a dragon ball cartoon.

“…Let’s go.”
