The malicious member is back! Episode 125
* * *
Thanks to Kim Chun-yong’s strong will to kill Jo Tae-wook without a rat or bird knowing, there were very few people who knew about the commotion that occurred behind the campsite.
First, Kim Chun-yong came up with a plan.
And Son Jae-ha, Yoo Ho-bin, and Cho Tae-wook, who unknowingly added spice to it.
however.
“Hmm. This is really… .”
There was one person who coincidentally encountered something early on that even the other T.O.J. members who were enjoying the campfire would find out about later.
“… “It seems like a big deal.”
The person who unconsciously gave Jo Tae-wook a look as he touched the envelope left for the members to enjoy.
The person who initially handed the envelope to Bang Yu-chan.
Following , the main writer was Lee Hyun-jung, who also participated in the filming of T.O.S.E’s reality show.
‘Is this okay? No, of course it’s not okay. I was wondering if I’d finally get a manager, but now I’ve been fired! Oh my god, they sent it right away… Of course, it’s strange to hold on to it more, but still!’
Lee Hyeon-jeong, who watched the series of short commotions without wanting to, looked at the backs of the three men walking towards the campsite with a short sigh.
Even if I didn’t try to explain the situation, there was something I learned after working as a broadcast writer for several years.
“Could you briefly say thank you to those who are currently taking care of the T.O.S.E members?”
“uh… Now, just a moment. “I need to think about this!”
“… Please take your time, think about it, and tell me. “It’s not that important of an interview.”
Idol groups that do not receive proper care from their agencies will inevitably stand out.
As a group created through a survival program, T.O.J took much less time and effort from its formation to its debut than other groups.
‘… In the process, it’s natural for the agency that is finally preparing for the idol industry to be a little shaky, but…
It is said that it was possible to control the pre-debut schedule with the agency’s employees, but once broadcasting activities began in earnest, it was close to impossible.
“… … .”
Lee Hyeon-jeong followed behind carefully, and there was concern in her eyes.
She had promised that she would never do survival filming again and that she would never be able to work with Joo Cheol-young, but of course she participated in this reality show, and of course there was Joo Cheol-young’s subtle flirting… .
“Ah, brothers! Where have you been? “I’m already on the verge of a showdown with Logan!”
“Hey, mate. I assure you, this is a game I won. Yoo-chan gave a hand to soccer, right?”
“Haha, I didn’t exactly raise my hand in that direction. “I was just saying that I played a lot of soccer in high school?”
“I’ve never done anything like that before… .”
It was because I truly cared about the kids in their late teens and early twenties who were making such a fuss.
So, it is natural that she continues to pay attention to the group that has not yet received proper care.
‘Based on the situation from before, we’ll probably have to find a new manager. I wonder if that is possible in the current situation… .’
Her eyes naturally turned to the person sitting on the edge of the campfire.
Earlier, after having a chat with Jo Tae-wook, we went to Kim Chun-yong, who personally gave him taxi fare.
Even in a situation where he was grabbed by the collar by a manager he had met less than two days ago and had to send the manager away, his expression was extremely peaceful.
“Soccer and baseball? “I guess I want to play baseball.”
“Hyung Yong! You really believed it, huh? That’s right. “If you’re Korean, it’s baseball!”
“But, I also played soccer more when I was in school. I guess it’s a bit difficult to play baseball at school. So let’s just assume this is a draw, okay?”
‘No, I wonder if it can be that peaceful.’
Hyunjung Lee looked at the scene with her arms crossed, trying hard to endure the storm of embarrassment.
There was nothing she could do anyway, and she had to wait for the AG to make the right decision.
And as she watched, a familiar voice came from behind her.
“I was wondering where you went, are you watching the kids even after filming? “Wow, this author’s passion is amazing.”
“… PD Joo.”
Hyeonjung Lee looked at PD Joo Cheol-young approaching her with a slightly drunken face, and without realizing it, she made a tired expression.
He thought that the group would definitely do well, so he put his energy into it and brought it to reality. Are you that carefree? How about having a drink with the staff?
‘What if the parties involved are calm, really!’
Lee Hyeon-jeong, who unconsciously felt aggrieved towards Kim Chun-yong and Joo Cheol-yeong, stretched her mouth in a straight line and whispered softly.
“It’s not because I’m overflowing with passion, but because I’m worried.”
“worry? “What are you worried about?”
“Producer, I don’t know because you haven’t seen anything, but there’s something going on with those kids right now…” .”
“This writer really has too many thoughts.”
Joo Cheol-young took a sip of the beer in his hand, roughly pushed back the hair that had fallen on his forehead, and spoke leisurely.
“Where is an idol without work? What you need to be wary of are the kids who just get along well. Those kids don’t know how to do anything.
“… “It’s okay for an idol to sing and dance well, what else can they do?”
“Huh? “You said that after filming ‘Targeting Star’ with me, this writer?”
Joo Cheol-young burst into laughter and pointed his finger at the place where the T.O.J. members were sitting.
“ha ha ha… Ah, it’s a boat. This writer. Think about how many of those guys over there debuted without any particular story. huh? How easy was it for Logan to debut? By the way, what about Kim Chun-yong?”
“That’s true, but… .”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. Come and have a drink with this writer too. “Now, when I return from filming tomorrow morning, my head will be broken because of the editing.”
“Huh? “Wait a minute!”
Lee Hyeon-jeong, who still could not let go of her worries even as she followed Joo Cheol-young’s hand, looked at Tiose who was sitting behind her, unable to hide her embarrassment.
And then.
“… uh?”
Suddenly, someone’s empty seat appeared in her eyes.
* * *
“… after.”
Hobin moved away from the campfire for a moment and took a deep breath.
“hmm? How come you three come together? “What happened?”
“Oh, well. It’s not like that. As a side note, I also want to solve the problem together. “Because the filming was long today?”
“Oh, then where has our manager gone? “We haven’t become very close friends yet, so I think it would be a good idea to have a conversation!”
“That seal, hmm… He left work early. What’s going on? “That’s what happened.”
“What? Leaving work early?”
“Yes. “That’s it.”
“Wow, is that okay? I thought our company’s welfare was good. “This is no joke!”
He had a duty to explain why Jo Tae-wook was away and what would happen in the future to the T.O.J. members who still didn’t know the situation… .
[Lady Swan Suin’s older sister]
Before that, he had something to solve.
“Ah, Hobin. Do you have any song requests? Our Logan plays the guitar well. Well, if you have a favorite song, you can tell me. “Well, is it a song I often listened to in the past?”
“I’m grateful, but it’s okay.”
“… Yes? Where are you going, bro? “You can’t go now!”
“haha… .”
When Kim Chun-yong’s expression changed strangely when he said he would leave for a moment, Hobin could tell why he had been led there.
And, since the situation was like this, there was only one choice for Hobin.
That’s why Hobin had to voluntarily move away from the ‘Project to Seduce Manager Yoo Ho-bin’ that Kim Chun-yong was planning.
“… … .”
Hobin, who had been staring at his phone screen for a while, carefully pressed the call button and cleared his mind.
At the same time, organizing countless memories from before was a bonus.
The time when I became Lady Swan’s road manager and awkwardly worked together on schedules.
A time when I decided that I wanted to become a person who does a good job, despite my frequent mistakes, after being cheered on as being ‘kind and hard-working’.
Even though I finally became a good worker, I had to watch Lady Swan’s temporary disbandment with open eyes.
and.
When I met Tiose.
– Oh, hello? Hobin?
While I was lost in thought for a moment, the ringtone suddenly disappeared and a soft female voice rang in my ears.
Hobin, who was relieved of his tension for a moment, smiled at the corner of his mouth and slowly opened his mouth.
“… Yes, Sister Suin.”
– what’s the matter? Is this something related to the survival program?
There was a bit of anticipation in the prisoner’s voice.
Anyway, having a new schedule was one of the things Lady Swan had always wanted.
That’s why Hobin was so shaken by Tae-wook’s enticement and couldn’t give a definite answer to Son Jae-ha’s words.
“… When I asked the production staff here, it seems like there will be a request for casting. “My sisters, it’s been a while since we all got together.”
– Oh my, I really wasn’t expecting that! Then Hobin, you too… .
But, that shouldn’t be the case anymore.
“Suin sister.”
– Yes?
“I think I’ll be Tiose’s manager this time. No, I plan to do it.”
The reason why Yoo Ho-bin left the game that Kim Chun-yong was secretly trying to help was simple.
In this way, I shouldn’t have gotten an indulgence that I can easily make excuses for.
“I… Mr. Chunyong. Are you okay?”
“yes?”
“Well, the neck. Even if it’s a band later… .”
“ah. Well, if I wake up one day, I’ll be fine. It’s not even a bruise, it’s just rubbing against my clothes. “Don’t worry too much.”
Looking at Kim Chun-yong’s slightly red neck from being grabbed by the collar by Jo Tae-wook earlier, Hobin couldn’t help but think a lot.
If I hadn’t been so indecisive, I wouldn’t have had to go through that.
If I had decided to become Tiose’s manager earlier, everything today would have gone more smoothly.
In a situation like that, do you just gently place a spoon on someone else’s nice-looking board and say, ‘I’m going to take care of you now?’
That was something I couldn’t accept.
And that’s why I had to sort out my past regrets.
Hobin continued speaking quietly into the phone.
“You may think I have no spine after being stubborn all this time, sister.”
– … … .
“I don’t want to say that I was pushed into doing this because things turned out like this. “I do this because I want to.”
– … … .
“When I look at Tiose, I think of my sisters a lot.”
But, that’s why.
“… “I want to do well.”
Hobin, who spoke quickly without giving Suin time to respond, closed his eyes tightly and waited for the criticism to come to him.
Now, Hobin had declared that he would let go of the precious string he had been holding on to, Lady Swan.
Swearing was okay, and cold words of disappointment were okay.
and… .
– ―It went so well! So Hobin, are you starting to load again?
The idol whom Hobin had watched for so long gave warm words of support even at this moment.
– You always liked working in the field. It must be really fun to be on set with a rookie, right? You must be busy.
“… that’s right. “It was fun.”
– okay. I was really sorry for worrying about us for so long… Great.
I hope it goes well.
“You too, Tiosedo. Haha, then maybe things will work out for us too?”
“… … .”
Holding the cell phone, which had already disconnected, in his hand, Hobin looked at the red-haired idol who was staring at him from afar.
He seems anxious about something, or he seems to be thinking a lot.
“… Fuha.”
Hobin waved his hand lightly at him and quietly chewed his words inwardly.
To Lady Swan, thank you.
And to Kim Chun-yong, I’m glad to see you and I’m sorry.
His steps slowly headed back to the campfire site.
Now, as their manager, it was my turn to explain what had happened so far.
