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

Episode 134

Jin Baek-ho, who came out to the street to get some fresh air with the team leader, handed him a cigarette.

“Take it.”

In fact, this was not a cigarette that Jin Baek-ho handed out to anyone.

This cigarette, called Hwanghaseo, was sold by Cheonbyeolseong, a famous luxury product, to commemorate its 100th anniversary, and at the time, it was a luxury item that sold for well over 5 million won per box.

The rough swiping down his throat and the pungent scent that lingered like the lingering scent of a special vacation appealed to him, but since it was a limited-edition product, there was a limit to obtaining it even if he had the money, so even he smoked it sparingly.

Therefore, sharing this was not a light favor for him either.

This was an acknowledgment. It was a signal that he would regard the person in front of him not just as a business relationship, but as a personal relationship without calculating profits and losses.

If Jingang’s employees knew the meaning, they would have accepted the cigarette with their hands shaking, but Sun Taeyang apparently did not know the meaning and politely refused.

“Oh, I’m sorry. “I am quitting smoking now.”

It was something that Seon Tae-yang, who was not a member of Jin Gang, could have done, but Jin Baek-ho, who was embarrassed, spoke in a somewhat distressed voice.

“This is something quite precious…”

“Haha, sorry. Still, as the adult closest to the children, I am stubborn about not wanting to smell like cigarettes. “He’s the so-called old man.”

“You old man… Yes, kids need people like that.”

I felt bad for refusing a cigarette, but I really liked his answer.

This is because Jin Baek-ho knew very well that there were very few people who could confidently say such things in front of him.

‘Yes, it would have been easier to deal with that friend at that time by asking for permission to share textbooks with Yeoreum. … ‘I am not an idol who has to face that awful public opinion again.’

With that thought in mind, Jin Baek-ho silently lit a cigarette and enjoyed a puff of smoke before getting to the point.

“I actually don’t care much about my daughter’s success.”

Sun Taeyang seemed to think of many words at his words, but he remained silent.

Seeing that attitude, he nodded and continued speaking.

“If it succeeds, great. Because Summer will be happy. But, no more than that. Improvement of Jingang’s image? Will the brand value increase as a result? None of that matters. “I didn’t invest for just that.”

Jin Baekho loved his family. Perhaps even more than Jin Gang, which is like his life

“What’s important is Yeoreum’s happiness. For listening to your insistence. The reason we actively support him is because we think it is the way for Yeoreum to be happy. “Keep that in mind.”

“I know. I also plan to do my best to make Yeoreum a happy idol.”

Jin Baek-ho shook his head and said.

“What you know is not enough. Carve it into her bones. “If Yeoreum ever cries like she did when she was doing rhythmic gymnastics, I won’t forgive you.”

In response to Jin Baekho’s overbearing threat, Sun Taeyang said with a small smile.

“I think you have the same thoughts as me on that point.”

“Same? What does that mean?”

“If something like that happens, I can’t forgive myself.”

“…”

He erased even the slightest hint of laughter that appeared on his lips and spoke as he looked at Jin Baek-ho more seriously than ever

“I will protect it. “Definitely.”

Jin Baekho, who was facing those eyes, put a cigarette in his mouth and slightly turned his head. It was because he did not have the confidence to hide the satisfaction that appeared on his lips.

He thought as he turned his back on the sun and smoked a cigarette into the sky.

‘Perhaps because Yeoreum takes after my mother, she has a good eye for men.’

Time passed in an instant.

Recording, mixing, establishing coordination, music video shooting, album packaging, visualizing promotional strategies, establishing Two Bear’s channel and SNS, requesting articles, establishing showcase plans, discussing broadcast schedules, etc., So many small things were done in an instant that it would be difficult to mention them all. C.

Of course, all of this was carried out with a luxurious quality that an ordinary new agency could not even imagine, thanks to the investment funds of Seon Tae-yang and Jin Baek-ho, who had knowledge of regression, and Cheon A-ram , who is considered one of the most influential people in the broadcasting industry.

However, in the meantime, there was one thing that had not yet been decided.

“What do you want your name to be, summer?”

“Your name?”

It was Jin Yeoreum’s stage name.

Midwinter, Yoo Ga-eul, and Oh Yuri decided that it would be okay to use their real names, so there was no problem, but Jin Yeoreum couldn’t do that.

Cheon A-ram, who felt her thoughts more strongly than anyone else, asked her.

“Yes, I will reveal it later, but right now I can’t reveal the name Jin Yeoreum, so I think I will have to come up with a stage name first. Is there a name you would like to use? “We discussed it among ourselves, but the conclusion was that respecting your wishes should be the top priority.”

Jin Yeoreum also knew the need for a stage name because she had heard stories from Sun Taeyang about how Two Bear would promote Jin Yeoreum. Therefore, there was also a name I had thought of in advance.

“… Sunny.”

She said the name.

“I’ll take Sunny.”

It was her favorite name her her her.

***

Choi Jeong-woo, who came to the reporter showcase of Girl Revolution, the first girl group of the new agency Two Bear, looked around to see if anyone he knew was there.

Because he honestly didn’t want to be seen here.

“Phew, fortunately I don’t know everything…”

“Oh, aren’t you senior Jeongwoo?”

“… Yeah, that can’t be possible. “How narrow is this plate?”

However, there was someone who recognized his wish.

It was Jeong Da-eun, his junior in college and one of the members of the school broadcasting station.

“A long time. “Da-eun.”

“Hey, you were right as expected. He was wearing a hat and a mask, so I was unsure if it was true or not. Haha, I guess you didn’t want to run into someone you know.”

“… “If she knew that, shouldn’t she have just pretended not to know?”

Jeong Da-eun easily ignored Choi Jeong-woo’s words and asked.

“Anyway, isn’t it time for senior Jungwoo to come to the showcase of this new agency? Of course, you haven’t had that long of a career, but I heard that you’ve been receiving a lot of recognition within the company because you’ve released a series of great scoops.”

“… That’s right.”

Yes. Choi Jeong-woo, who quickly graduated from college and got a job at an Internet entertainment media outlet as an entertainment reporter, was considered an important person within the company. In this way, no matter who he sent, he was not the manpower to be wasted on something that did not really matter. So it wasn’t because of the company’s instructions that he was here.

In any case, the reason he came here was because of Seon Tae-yang.

That’s because he owed money to Seon Taeyang during his high school days.

At the time, he had run away from home after fighting with his parents over his career path. He was with Sun Tae-yang, who blindly encouraged him to live with him, and Seon Dal-rae, who showed signs of distaste but always checked on what he needed and took care of it one by one as if he wasn’t really interested. Time remained a great debt in his mind. So much so that I have no hesitation in accepting this kind of outburst.

However, he was reluctant to reveal such a detailed story, so he spoke roughly.

“It just happened that way.”

“Hmm… Okay. Actually, I didn’t expect you to tell me.”

“…”

Da-eun, who was nodding her head in response to his words her, changed the topic.

“Oh right. Although this is a new company, it is a bit unique.”

“Han Gyeoreul and Oh Yuri, both from Girls 100, are members? Both succeeded in raising enough issues. There must have been additional recruitment offers, but it is strange that they chose a company whose name I had never heard of.”

“Besides that, the main vocalist, Yoo Ga-eul, is a celebrity who achieved 13 million views with just her busking video. Should I say that it feels like we’ve attracted some of the hottest kids of late?”

“… “It doesn’t look good to bring people together just looking at the issue.”

While the two were chatting moderately, the members came up to the showcase and started saying hello.

“… I don’t think they collected it just because of the issue. All four of them will occupy the visual center wherever they go. “They did a great job gathering kids like that.”

A midwinter that looks chic with a cool yet haughty charm.

Yu Ga-eul has a pure and gentle impression, reminding her of her first love.

Oh Yuri looks extremely cute with a cute and lively vibe.

Lastly, a child named Sunny, who has an elegance reminiscent of luxurious luxury goods.

Combined with expert makeup and coordination, they had the charm to be called a visual center wherever they went.

“Wow… Isn’t the girl standing at the end from the left over there so pretty? “I’m excited to see her as a woman too.”

“Are you talking about the kid you introduced as Sunny? Sure, they all have excellent visuals, but if the kids next to them are girls, she feels like that kid is a girl, so it feels different. Should I say that she is better suited to be called beautiful rather than pretty? … I mean, he’s 16 years old.”

The most important thing was the visuals, but it wasn’t just the visuals of the Girl Revolution members that caught the eye.

The attitude of hosting the broadcast, the flowing talk, and the chemistry between the members were naturally attractive.

As soon as I entered this showcase, I felt that Sun Taeyang’s company was receiving a considerable amount of investment for a startup. However, even then, I didn’t have high expectations. Even if they had a lot of money, the crudeness typical of new agencies was bound to remain. However, this showcase did not feel such insufficiency at all. No, it was closer to perfection.

As soon as I forgot that it was a courtesy visit and began to analyze thoroughly as a reporter, Yoo Ga-eul took the microphone and spoke.

“Then, let me tell you about the title of our girl revolution, traitor.”
