Chapter 128 – 128
“… Idol?”
“Huh. Idol. Are you planning an idol team? Yejin thought it would be good for you to join the team.”
“… Am I an idol? I’ve never even thought about it. I don’t know if I can do it well.”
“Think about it slowly. Contact me if you want to do it. In my opinion, Yejin, you have the talent to be an idol. “I have what it takes to be a star.”
“Do I have talent?”
“Huh. There are so many that they are full and overflowing. “She has a pretty face, good body proportions, and most of all, her clear eyes are very attractive.”
“All right. I’ll think positively. “I’ll discuss it with my grandmother.”
Seo Ye-jin’s eyes drew a soft half-moon shape. A soft line was drawn at the corner of her mouth.
Although she was embarrassed by the suggestion that she was an idol, she was so flattered by the compliment that she was pretty.
“What about me?”
The gaze turned to the blonde girl.
“I’m not good at being an idol?”
“Do you want to be an idol?”
“Yes. “I want to do it.”
“Hmm…”
Jinseong was deep in thought.
Kim Ji-ah clearly had a knack for being an idol. She is also talented as a YouTuber and influencer. She is a genius, her talent is what she is.
However, there was a problem. Kim Ji-ah was a runaway girl. Her image as a problem child was stronger than that of a good person. She looked like a spoiled girl.
‘Hmm… Why… Is there any reason for her to take the risk of being a runaway girl? ? Is there a need for her to leave the safe path and take on a problem child? ?’
Honestly, there is none. The world is large, there are many people, and there are many good talents. There is no reason to take risks.
“You know YSP Entertainment’s office? Come to the office later. “I will decide after the interview.”
“I understand.”
The decision was put on hold.
Kim Ji-ah’s eyes were desperate for her to answer, ‘No!’ I have to listen to her inner situation and make a decision.
“Rice is? “Have you eaten?”
“Not yet. “I was on my way to eat toast.”
“If I eat toast every day, I get sick. Let’s go. “I’ll buy you food.”
She took the girls to her restaurant.
She cooked the meat diligently.
‘It’s perfect.’
Growing girls ate meat as soon as it was golden brown. It was so nice to see him eating well.
“I think I’ll be moving soon.”
“Oh? Really?”
“Yes. “The house I live in now is very old, so I decided to move to a clean house.”
“Oh?! “Good.”
“It’s all thanks to you. “Thank you so much.”
Thanks to her sincerity, her grandmother was able to get a job at her grandmother’s rice cake shop. Because her income improved, she was able to move.
[Reliability: 50]
[Inner heart: Her grandmother has become a lot brighter these days. She decided to go on a trip with her grandmother this weekend.]
[Inner heart: It’s all thanks to your help. Thank you uncle. I have to repay her kindness for the rest of my life.]
The first round is pork ribs.
For the second round, I bought shaved ice.
The girls proved that they can eat both food and dessert separately.

‘My property…’
I figured out my assets.
[Cash: KRW 22 billion]
There was 22 billion won in surplus funds. I was planning to invest the entire amount soon.
[YSP Building: KRW 20.5 billion]
[3 apartments: KRW 6.4 billion]
The YSP building loan was fully repaid.
I bought the apartment with a lot of cash.
I thought I could get a mortgage loan of at least 15 billion won.
[Grandma Rice Cake: 10 billion won]
[YSP Entertainment: 5 billion won]
[YSP Pharmaceuticals: KRW 5 billion]
[YSP Health: 500 million won]
It is business investment and operating funds.
‘Grandmother rice cake…’
Grandma rice cake.
Business at the first and second Halmaetteok branches was perfect, but we are continuing to invest in franchising.
It has been a long time since the first investment of 5 billion won was fully used, and the second investment of 5 billion won was being used.
‘YSP Entertainment…’
YSP Entertainment.
In the entertainment business, sales were rapidly increasing thanks to the YouTuber team.
We are looking at a loss whether we are expanding our YouTuber team, establishing a new actor team, and even preparing an idol team.
The deficit is likely to continue for at least 6 and up to 2 years. I think we need to keep pushing the investment amount.
‘YSP Pharmaceuticals…’
The company name was changed from Sunjin Pharmaceutical to YSP Pharmaceutical.
We hired staff from the office team, production team, and research team.
[We plan to film a CF commercial early next month.]
[YSP Pharmaceuticals online sales site has been opened.]
[Vitamin has been registered with an e-commerce company.]
[I inquired about vitamin sales on TV Home Shopping.]
[We are running a 1+1 event for inventory management purposes.]
Sunjin Pharmaceutical was lacking in two things.
1. Employees
2. Promotion
We solved the employee risk problem by hiring the best employees possible.
We are planning to produce a TV commercial by hiring Oh Mi-yeon as a CF model.
They were selling vitamins by actively utilizing their YouTubers.
We are planning and carrying out TV home shopping sales, 1+1 events, and internet promotion.
‘YSP Health…’
YSP Health was the only business currently in profit. YSP Health’s operating profit is growing day by day.
Hayeon and Jeong Ah-reum are attracting male members, and Jeong Hoon and Jang Su-hyeon are attracting female members.
‘We should also operate the second YSP Health branch in Cheongju for employee welfare.’
‘If the second store receives a good response, we will consider turning it into a chain.’
Next, I thought about the Cheongju business.
‘Shall we get rid of the Cheongju business? Should we merge it with the YSP building? ‘I think combining them is efficient, right?’
‘No. You never know when or where you might meet a genius. It is best to keep the window to meet geniuses as open as possible.’
Ji-ah Kim came to her office.
“Would you like a drink? Would you like some mango juice?”
“Yes. Please.”
“What about snacks? Do you want to eat Pepero?”
“Are you okay. “I’m full because I ate a lot of meat earlier.”
I sat Ji-ah Kim in her conference room chair.
She poured mango juice into a cup.
“Are you good at studying?”
“I can’t.”
“What about English?”
“I speak English well. My mom is American. “When she was young, she lived in the United States, and then she came to Korea.”
Ji-ah Kim was of mixed race. She was born to a Korean father and an American mother. She was fluent in English and Korean.
“Ji Aya, can she possibly know the reason why she ran away from home?”
She asked carefully.
“…”
At that moment, Ji-Ah Kim closed her mouth. There was wariness and coldness in her gaze.
“Jia, does she know how much it costs to promote an idol group? At least billions of dollars are involved.”
“…”
“Do you know how much manpower it takes to make an idol group successful? At least 10 people.”
“…”
In order to foster an idol group, a considerable amount of capital and manpower were needed.
“I am the head of the company. I have a duty to lead the idol team to success. We have to minimize risk.”
“…”
“I’m asking this because I need to know in detail what kind of person you are, what your situation is, and what risks you face.”
“…”
Ji-ah Kim pinched her cup.
“How did you know that I ran away from home? Did Yejin say something?”
“If you look at your facial features, you’ll get the answer right away, right? “It’s written on your face, ‘I ran away from home,’ right?”
“Didn’t Yejin tell you?”
“I didn’t. I’m surprisingly busy. “She is not free enough to keep in touch with Yejin.”
Kim Ji-ah was quick-witted.
She intuitively realized that Jinseong was telling the truth.
“… “I got divorced.”
“My parents?”
“Yes. My parents divorced when I was in elementary school. Her mom abandoned me and left for America, and her dad…”
[Inner heart: Dad has changed. He drinks all the time, and whenever he drinks, he says he hates me because I look like his mother. That woman… The woman who remarried… Harassing me… A few days ago, he hit me in the face…]
[Inner heart: I hate home.]
Jinseong scratched his cheek with his index finger.
‘I’m sorry.’
I had a misunderstanding all along.
Jinseong listened to the story silently.
“Good. Let’s make a contract.”
“Really?”
“Okay.”
She decided there was no risk and decided to sign the contract.
‘But there is a problem.’
Ji-ah Kim is a minor. Her parents’ consent was required to sign the contract.
She was doubtful whether her parents, who did not like her, would give permission.
She will have to visit Jia’s parents soon and persuade them to sign a contract.
“Take it.”
Jinseong handed her paper.
“What is this?”
“The address of the studio I lived in. I haven’t unpacked yet, so go in and live. “I send the electricity and gas bills via text message.”
I also handed over a business card and 300,000 won.
“If something urgent happens, please contact me using the contact information on my business card. Buy something delicious with your pocket money. “If it’s not enough, tell me.”
“… Why? Why are you being so nice to me all of a sudden?”
“You’re my family now, right? I have to take care of my family, who will take care of them? Please take care of me in the future.”
In fact, it is a good intention. I felt so bad for Kim Ji-ah who had nowhere to go that I wanted to help her.
“… Thank you.”
[Likeability: 50]
∴∴∴
I sat on a bench outside the YSP building. Jinseong relaxedly watched the passers-by, sipping bok-arti with her legs crossed.
[Kim Jeong-mi (33)]
[Psychopath]
[Kim Young-mi (46)]
[Kleptomania, selfishness]
[Im Jin-ah (26)]
[Good man, sincerity]
The world is wide and people are diverse.
There are bad people and there are good people.
‘Huh?’
I was surprised by the student’s profile.
[Jeong Soo-ah (16)]
[Rapper (SS), Charm (SS), Lyricist (SS), Stamina (A+), Health (A+)]
Found. Talent found!
I jumped up from my seat.
“Over there!”
I urgently called the girl.
Unfortunately, the girl couldn’t hear her voice because of the earphones.
The girl entered Twosome.
Jinseong hurriedly followed behind.
“… ?”
I was trying to approach the girl.
For a moment, she had no choice but to narrow her eyes.
‘Why is that friend like that?’
My friend, a part-timer whose specialty was ‘accidents,’ was in a strange condition. Of course, it said ‘drugs’ on it.
