Chapter 178 – Favorite Child (18)
The child was still continuing his idol activities.
However, rather than singing and dancing, she focused on various commercials, entertainment shows, and acting.
This is the same for other members.
‘Now it’s time for her to retire from idol activities.’
I am also the same age.
Idol is a profession in which interest fades the longer the activity continues.
New groups keep forming below, giving a fresh feeling, but long-standing groups feel familiar, so you get tired of them quickly.
Therefore, she decided that it was time to retire.
‘I also received consent from other members.’
Other members of B Komachi as well.
Perhaps she decided that it would be impossible to continue her idol career, but she readily accepted Seojun’s offer.
Like their children, they will continue their broadcasting activities in other fields.
Thus, a press conference was held.
In particular, Seojun came to the forefront.
“First, before I start, today I am not actor ‘Lee Seo-jun.’ He held this position as the general manager of Shinhwa Entertainment. Please keep this in mind and ask questions.”
Okay then.
Seojun added that and announced shocking news.
“Let me address the first matter. “I announce the disbandment of the 1st generation B Komachi as of now.”
Do-it-yourself-!!
The camera flash flashed.
The reporters looked quite surprised.
Well, in a way, it’s natural.
There was no need to disband a group that was still doing well.
Idols are money eaters.
Accommodation, clothes, education, etc… The money and time it took to grow a group was enormous.
However, if you succeed, you can get it all back, a typical high risk, high return.
And B Komachi was now a cash cow, earning an enormous amount of money as the overwhelming number one among Japanese idols.
Disbanding such a group?
While the reporters were thinking to themselves, a fact suddenly occurred to them.
‘Oh, it was an affiliate of the Shinhwa Group.’
The richest conglomerate in the world.
Shinhwa is a group that cannot be compared even if all the top 2 to 10 conglomerates are gathered together.
That’s why I don’t necessarily care about money.
“There’s a reporter there.”
“This is Shibasaki from Fuji Entertainment News. Can I know the reason for the dissolution?”
“It’s simple. This is because the current B Komachi no longer needs to continue her idol activities.”
Seojun glanced at the reporters for a moment and continued.
“An idol is, after all, an ‘idol.’ But they are also people like us. As you go through life, you will start a family, fall in love, and do various other things. If you continue your idol activities, your value as an idol will of course fade. “We decided that they would not be able to enjoy their lives because they were worried about the opinions of fans and public opinion, so we made the bold decision to disband.”
“Oh, I see. Thank you for your reply.”
The reporters seemed to be somewhat convinced.
In fact, there weren’t many groups that continued their idol activities for a long time.
Seojun added words to those reporters.
“But it doesn’t mean I’m completely quitting my entertainment career. They will continue to work in their respective fields of choice. This is what they wanted, and we at Shinhwa Entertainment also plan to support them by respecting their decisions and choices.”
Crackling ─
Reporters kept tapping on their laptops.
“There, the reporter who raised his hand. “Ask a question.”
“Ah, thank you.”
The reporter stood up and said.
“This is Kurogane from Fuwafuwa Entertainment. You definitely said it was the first generation at first. Do you have any plans for the second generation B Komachi?”
“Yes, of course.”
Roaring, roaring.
Reporters became noisy.
The reporter who asked asked again whether he felt some sign of a big hit.
“Then what happens to the members?”
“They will all be replaced. “The first generation members have already received confirmation that they will retire as idols.”
“Oh, I see. So, have you already found the members?”
“I can’t tell you in detail. There are people who have already decided. Was there an answer?”
“Yes! Thank you!”
After.
After completing several rounds of Q&A, Seojun sat down and passed the baton.
“Okay then, from now on I will only be taking questions related to the members.”
Reporters asked questions to B Komachi members.
Most of them explain why they agreed to disband, what entertainment industry activities they will do afterward, what they will do during the break, what their next projects will be, etc… It was very diverse.
Among them, the child who was the ace received the most questions.
Unlike the early days, a child with a certain level of experience was able to respond to mischievous questions with ease.
“Does anyone have any more questions?”
The audience was silent.
Realizing that there were no more questions, Seojun took the microphone for the final presentation.
“Then before we wrap up, here is the final presentation. From here on, it would be better for Miss Hoshino Ai next to me to speak directly rather than me.”
As mentioned before.
Seojun handed the microphone to the child.
“Ah, everyone. Can you hear me well?”
The lively voice filled with positive energy makes me smile.
In addition to Seojun, quite a few reporters were smiling faintly, as if it was the same.
This was especially true because the only people who were invited here in the first place were the Shinhwa Group or reporters who had previously written articles favorable to B Komachi.
‘But will you be able to smile at the shock that lies ahead?’
Seojun laughed inwardly.
Even if you think about it, this announcement will come as a bigger shock than the disbandment of Japanese national group B Komachi.
“Okay then, let me make an announcement! I, B Komachi member and ace Hoshino Ai, are planning to get married after B Komachi disbands! Congratulations everyone! Clap clap clap!”
… ?
The faces of the smiling reporters hardened.
Then, he opened his eyes wide and was astonished.
Of course, the first generation B Komachi members and officials who knew this fact did not seem very surprised.
‘But it doesn’t end here.’
The real bomb starts now.
The child smiled brightly, not paying attention to the reporters’ reactions.
“By the way, the person I’m marrying is the handsome Jun next to me!”
Ta-da─!!
The child spread her arms and emphasized Seojun.
As reporters turned their attention to him, he smiled and waved his hand.
Cheok─
The reporters’ mouths opened even wider.
Seojun, who received the microphone from the child, blocked it before anything bothersome happened.
“Then we will end the interview here.”
“Now, wait——!”
Seojun ignored the reporters’ words and left the conference room.
And of course there was an uproar.
***
After the press conference.
Seojun shared his words with Shinhwa Entertainment’s public relations office and refined the presentation made at the press conference a little more,
As a result,
“Wow! People’s reactions are so hot! Ahaha!”
The internet was on fire.
It’s already been a week and I don’t think this topic will cool down.
The child laughed when he saw that.
“Under? Are you retiring from being an idol to get married?! A slut who abandons her fans and only looks at her face?! Don’t curse Mom and Dad! You losers in this life!”
Ruby expressed her anger while looking at the internet.
“Calm down, Ruby. In the end, what those guys are doing is just ugly jealousy. “A true fan will support you, so let’s not waste our energy on guys like that and be satisfied with legal action.”
Aqua calmed Ruby down.
Seojun checked the Internet reaction in real time.
Of course, more than 90% of people cheered sincerely as fans rather than those who cursed.
The remaining 10%?
They are often internet ghosts, stalkers, or idiots with an inferiority complex.
Of course, Seojun had no intention of just letting go.
‘Depending on the level of what was said, whether to press charges will be decided.’
Life is real, fuck it.
The idiots in the corner of the room who didn’t know how to be scared of Shinhwa Group were quietly writing shit without knowing how their lives would change in the future.
‘Those things aren’t worth killing for.’
Yes, like the original stalker.
Originally, he was the one who found out her child’s residence through Kamiki’s information sharing, so he couldn’t come to visit.
Isn’t that one of the people swearing in the corner of the room?
‘Well, you bastard. ‘Isn’t it your business to know now?’
If you bother to care about those failures in life, this is the only loss.
Seojun left the rest to the company’s legal team and checked the next plan.
‘Now it’s time to harvest.’
The heroines he personally collected.
Over the past 10 years, we have been building up step by step.
That means
‘It means that if I seduce you, you will just fall for it.’
The corners of his mouth rose.
The time has come to start an exciting harem life with heroines.
