Chapter 200 – #28. Single (2)
The members in front of Jo Yeon-joo, director, were so nervous that their bodies were stiff.
She tried not to be nervous, but the force she showed was unusual.
Director Jo Yeon-joo, who can be seen as the de facto general manager of overseas branches.
Our overseas activities must have helped, knowingly or unknowingly.
With so much influence abroad, she had influence and power beyond her board.
‘To the extent that they immediately put me in the debut group.’
Memories that have faded now.
The first “Person” I met in this world, and the first person I had sex with.
Since this body was made for me, you could say that she took away my virginity.
‘Every time we meet, it’s awkward.’
The fortunate thing is that director Jo Yeon-joo never brought up work that day.
Thanks to that, I was able to lightly pass the work that day.
If director Jo Yeon-joo continued to approach her on the pretext of her work that day, she would have been in a lot of trouble.
In that respect, Pony perfectly kept the contract that day.
‘To keep that contract perfectly, they forcibly made me an idol. Now that I think about it, it’s clear that Pony’s threat at that time was a joke.’
A contract that I was sure to keep to the point of threatening me.
Maybe the reason why director Jo Yeon-joo didn’t bother him after that day was because of some unknown Pony’s arrangement?
‘Anyway, it’s best not to get involved with Jo Yeon-joo.’
Since we have built up history, I can’t treat them comfortably.
Of course, it wasn’t that the other members could treat Director Jo Yeon-joo comfortably.
“Airplane?”
“Yes!”
Still, he responded loudly to director Jo Yeon-joo’s words that Jackie was the leader.
The other members are watching from a step behind.
We waited, questioning what director Jo Yeon-joo had called us for.
“You did very well. There is nothing short of becoming a star of the next generation of honey entertainment. Today, your faces will be hung in the center of the lobby on the first floor.”
“Omg!”
“Wow!”
The central seat on the 1st floor of the lobby with the symbolism of being a signboard star of Honey Enter.
It was a great honor to finally have our faces hanging there.
Actors also decide to get off due to the order of names, but isn’t that the case with singers?
The symbol hanging in the center of the lobby on the first floor was so great, and it was a great honor for us.
“I’m looking forward to seeing how many years Airplane can keep its central lobby seat. For reference, the record that Red Witch held for 7 years was the highest record.”
Legendary 1st generation eponymous idol, Red Witch.
Respect soars when I check the far-flung time of 7 years.
At the same time, the desire for challenge is also the same.
‘If 7 years is the best record… Isn’t it worth a try?’
If the current popularity continues, wouldn’t it be possible to set a record by maintaining it for more than 7 years?
It’s already been 3 years since we debuted.
At this year’s awards ceremony, it’s a good situation to expect an award instead of a bridesmaid.
It seemed that there was no law telling us not to set a new record if we passed the 7-year contract period.
‘Hmm,’
But now that I think about it, I thought that I would only do 7 years and get off the ground.
Moreover, when the contract is over, he has to marry Joo-ah noona.
It could have been difficult to endure at the top for 7 years because I had to inform the world of Taeyang’s existence.
But it was a pity to give up without trying.
“You’ve done well so far. The agency sees that you have safely passed the transitional period. Now that you have jumped on the bandwagon, all you have to do is row hard. It was a lot of trouble.”
“Thank you.”
It was a strange feeling to have a high-ranking person in the company recognize our efforts.
‘It feels like the boss personally gives me a bonus because of the great performance.’
Feeling strange, she continued to listen to director Jo Yeon-joo.
“Starting with this album, I decided to take charge of you guys. If we make a comeback, we will basically aim for overseas markets through global marketing.”
“Does this mean that you are doing overseas activities as well as domestic activities?”
“Is it so. Now, you guys have come to the level where fans are looking for you without having to do publicity activities. So even if you don’t do anything, the invitation will come. And I’m preparing for the concert.”
“Concert!!!”
“I love it!”
“I really wanted to try it!!”
We are finally having a concert!!
Of course, I’ve been doing concert bis unreasonable things abroad, but having an official concert evoked special emotions.
“Single album preparation and concert preparation, can you do well?”
“Yes!”
“I can work really hard.”
“I’m trying to start with a national tour and continue it all the way to overseas.”
“Yes!”
Director Jo Yeon-joo, who delivered the big news, took care of us for the last time.
“Is there anything you want to say to me?”
“Uh… There is nothing.”
“That’s right. Things went smoothly, hehe.”
“How about a dedicated team?”
“Please do well.”
“I heard that you wanted to do unit activities. Aren’t you sad?”
“He said he would let me do it next time.”
“When I do unit activities, I will make it more based on everyone’s opinions.”
“Oh! Thank you.”
“How is your relationship with the members?”
Director Jo Yeon-joo carefully asked several questions.
“Eun-gyu and Jun-yi fight, but he has never had a big fight.”
“Uh… Really? Haven’t we ever had a big fight with each other?”
“Huh. Won’t there be? Did anyone fight without our knowledge?”
“No.”
“Neither do I.”
“Then there is none.”
Even among friends, there are days when we fight more than once.
The closer they are, the more there will be fights.
However, despite living together in a dorm, we have never had an emotional fight.
‘Even though Eun-gyu and Jun-i are a bit on the edge, they keep the line well.’
Ki Woo-yeon is too young to be a fightable opponent, and Kyung-tae is the oldest, so no one dares to challenge him.
Is it like being treated as an elder?
Not to mention Jackie.
He has a unique force and serious personality, so he is not an opponent to argue with.
At least I was the one who got along well with the kids, but Nam-gyu and Kang-joon didn’t have time to argue with me because they were aggro each other.
In the end, our group became a group that never fought.
“I’m relieved to hear that you’re getting along well.”
Director Jo Yeon-joo smiled happily.
After a while.
After coming out of the director’s room, we ruminated to see if we had spoken well.
“It’s not as big as I thought. I was scared for nothing.”
“That means we’ve become great enough for the director to care!”
“Hehe, I’m looking forward to the concert.”
“Let’s make it absolutely grand. I usually think about what to do when I go to a concert.”
“I’m already excited!”
“First of all, the preparation of the single album has to come first.”
A concert is definitely a pleasant thing, but the process of preparing for it will never be comfortable.
Moreover, we have to prepare at the same time as the single album comeback.
I already feel like my bones are throbbing at the thought of going through hardships.
Still, since we are the high school students we want, who will we tell about our difficulties?
“Everyone had a hard time meeting the director today.”
“Sister!”
“Were you waiting?”
“Yeah, you guys are a bit busy today.”
“You don’t have a schedule.”
As soon as we leave the director’s room, the manager sister takes us to the meeting room.
There was a mountain of schedules waiting for us.
I received a schedule for a month and heard about it, and out of the blue, my sister made an unexpected proposal.
“I’m suggesting this to Jekyll and Haesol. If you have a song you wrote, would you like to submit it?”
“A song?”
Could it be that composer Zeki doesn’t have a song?
I’m just piling it up because I didn’t give it a chance.
When there is time, Jeki always locks himself in the studio and composes.
“I want to try.”
“Jackie, you knew that. Who is Haesol?”
“Hmm…”
Do I need to make a song when I have Jackie?
When I hesitated without answering, Jeki stabbed him in the side.
“Just take it easy. Even if you don’t get picked, it’s not a big loss.”
That’s right.
“Then I will try.”
I can’t do it if inspiration doesn’t come, but if inspiration comes.
Jackie held out his fist, and I lightly bumped mine against it.
♧ ♧ ♧
“Whoa…”
After the airplane left the room, Jo Yeon Joo, who was left alone, grabbed her throbbing hair.
Familiar chronic headache.
She sighed and checked her calendar.
These days, flying in and out of Korea and abroad is accumulating a lot of mileage.
Her airplane’s faster-than-expected success has pushed her to work.
How many times have you made an unplanned return home? .
The problem is that her group called Air Plane, which she will now be in full charge of, is a difficult group for her.
‘Jin Haesol.’
The memory of that night that I still can’t understand why.
I tried to forget it, but it is because of the memory that is not easily forgotten.
‘I think it looks better…’
She acted as if nothing was wrong, but whenever she saw Chin Hae-sol, she reacted with her body first, so Yeon-joo Jo had to struggle to hide herself from flinching whenever she saw Jin-hae-sol.
Jin Hae-sol seemed to have forgotten her night with herself, but she said.
‘It’s not a crazy year, why are you sad?’
What is the age difference between Chin Hae-sol and her own age?
It’s a relationship that can’t be continued, and it’s a relationship that shouldn’t be connected.
‘Calm down. Why can’t I forget that?’
She’s the one who used to joke that it wasn’t like a joke about having a marriage with work.
The man was unnecessary in her life.
However, because of a man named Jin Hae-sol, her career was greatly damaged, and her heart was also at peace.
‘We’ll have to continue to face each other, but it’s going to be difficult if it’s shaken like this.’
Mate!
He slapped her lightly on her own cheek.
“Jo Yeon-joo, calm down and let’s work.”
He’s a young blue-eyed boy.
Jo Yeon-joo forcibly suppressed it even though he knew that her body was heating up.
♪~♪~♪~♪
“?”
The moment I tried to focus on work again.
A ringing sound came from somewhere in the office.
It wasn’t the sound coming from his cell phone.
Jo Yeon-joo got up from her seat and looked around, and found that her cell phone was ringing in the gap between the sofa where Airplane had been sitting.
‘I must have spilled my cell phone.’
Since Airplane was here just a moment ago, the owner of the phone must be one of the Airplane members.
She picked up her cell phone and connected her phone.
“Hello.”
-Ah! I am the cell phone owner.
“… He spilled it in the office. Jin Hae-sol.”
-Yes?
“I’m Jo Yeon-joo, the director.”
-Ah… !
“…”
All in all, the main character of the cell phone is Jin Hae-sol.
She let out a small sigh.
“I will leave it to the staff.”
-No. I’ll go look for it right away. Sorry for bothering you.
“… All right. Then I’ll be waiting for you.”
Jo Yeon-joo’s heart started pounding after she hung up on her phone.
‘What should I say when he comes?’
It is clear that she drew her own line first.
But she was feeling the urge to cross that line herself.
She would have given up neatly if the opportunity hadn’t come.
‘I’ve endured well until now!’
Her body, which had barely subsided, began to heat up again at the unexpected opportunity caused by her cell phone.
He, too, is a man too dangerous to be near.
Hormonal pull towards men that cannot be hidden.
It was a fatal change for Jo Yeon-joo, an old virgin.
