The Malicious Member Returns! Episode 245

* * *

AG’s singers have never once had their skills or capabilities questioned.

Well, once they go up on stage, they all sing live and are so energetic, even if they are dance members, so how can you say something like, ‘They need to practice more’?

In addition, there are live and choreography practice videos, behind-the-scenes recording studio videos, and behind-the-scenes album videos that are uploaded consistently.

“Hello. Today, Noisy Boy is here again, the absolute legend of Hong Kong man. It’s Gao Yan! Let’s get straight to the point. Today’s content is Stairway to Heaven, famous for its extreme activities, as you can see below… .”

Moreover, AG was enjoying a boom in video content like never before thanks to the recruitment of an unimaginable digital creator called Gao Yan, and it had never thought that it could do anything more than this.

Even Tioje’s capable manager, Yoo Ho-bin.

They have solid skills that make their fans proud and satisfied, they have a lot of video content, and they even do live broadcasts at appropriate times.

Seriously, can you do any better than this?

however.

[A surprise appearance by a new star! Meet WEZ at SMEGi starting February 1st♡]

I could have done more.

…infinitely.

“This is really… I never thought about it…”

The content team and business support team within the AG building nodded earnestly in agreement with Yoo Ho-bin’s words.

It was also evidence that they did not read the faxes and emails sent by fans carefully.

[No seriously, I’m going crazy. Why aren’t you doing T.O.J. smudge? It’s about time to do it. It’s already been 6 months since you debuted. A number one singer should do something like that.]

[Title: I will send you the lottery winning numbers ^^

Content: is a joke

I heard that if you send it with a title like this, they’ll read it.

Please, please, please, Tioje, it’s time to smudge now. How long are we going to see you come up here and there on SNS? AG, come to your senses, if you’re an agency, support the kids.]

If they hadn’t skimmed through those emails because they contained unpleasant profanity, they might have realized it sooner.

And if it was Yoo Ho-bin who received that email, he would have realized it much sooner, but since the AG internal email address that was publicly disclosed was connected to the content team and the management support team, this entire process was bound to be delayed.

“under….”

Low sighs of regret and remorse burst from people’s mouths, and some even muttered, “I’m going to get cursed at again.”

Fans’ anger starts from something trivial and often comes back as a big, painful boomerang.

But the good news is that I found out now.

Yoo Ho-bin carefully examined the faces of Wiz members and the pastel-colored site that filled his computer screen.

“It’s a star message service….”

Although AG was not aware of this, it was safe to say that the Star Message service was an essential service that any famous idol had to open.

What fans want is for idols to show off their cool side on stage and for them to communicate in the way they want.

Meanwhile, platforms that precisely targeted the needs of fans were released one after another as the 3rd generation transitioned into the 4th generation.

They say things will get better if we move forward in the way the times demand.

anyhow.

Among the private message services that started out with the theme of ‘being able to exchange messages with celebrities including idols’, the one that was the hottest was, of course, Smezi.

[2X0114 Yein smudges and cuddles♡]

[⎿Don’t you know that Smeji is a paid service? Don’t leak it;]

[⎿I’m paying for it with my own money, so stop talking.]

[⎿⎿No, it’s a fan letter anyways ㅋㅋㅋㅋ It doesn’t matter if it’s leaked, leaking chat windows is prohibited…]

[Theo Smedzi bottle ㄹㅈㄷ_jpg]

[⎿Title: Aggro is crazy. I really thought I had a big accident]

[⎿Sending a picture of Mala Xiang Guo at 2 AM was a big accident. I thought I was going crazy because I was so hungry.]

They exchange messages as if they were chatting one-on-many, leave fan letters on bulletin boards, and singers leave hearts or comments on them.

It was proof to the fans that their idols really thought of them, it was a joy, and more than that, it was a sense of fulfillment that they were spending time together.

In this day and age, where you have to capture the hearts of your fans to survive in this tough idol world, it’s not a choice, but perhaps a necessity.

Being even a step behind on this was enough to make people inside the AG panic.

“Then what should I do? I should apply for entry even now….”

“No, Aquatic uses their own service. Should we develop our own service as well?”

“There’s no way our company’s development team could do something like that!”

“Let’s send a request email first. Oh, really. I hadn’t even thought about it…”

“Wow. Serenity is doing it too. Should I subscribe to it too?”

While the people in the office were milling about, each one giving a collective monologue.

“ha….”

Yoo Ho-bin, who sent out emails requesting entry to influential platforms faster than anyone else, gently rubbed his eyes with his fingers and let out a low sigh.

‘This is completely disqualifying as a manager.’

Recently, he was quite discouraged after hearing the news that the survival show to discover female idols that Lady Swan was scheduled to appear on had fallen through.

“Yeah. That’s what happened. Haha, the casting was also really pushed back, right? This kind of program needs to start filming all at once to be scheduled. That wasn’t the case.”

“… Are you okay, sister?”

“Huh? Of course it’s okay. It’s not like I didn’t expect it.”

I know that the idols I’m in charge of now are T.O.J.

I wish them success more than anyone else.

Anyway, being the first idol he was in charge of was special to him too.

However, since things had turned out this way, it could not be denied that his foolishness had a negative influence on Tioze.

‘… It’s my fault.’

No matter how well you’ve done so far, the entertainment industry is a place where even the smallest creaking error can ruin your golden tower.

That status could be maintained only if there was not even a single bit of awkwardness or ambiguity.

Even though they are somehow trying to quickly resolve the situation this time, this absolutely must not happen again in the future.

“… … .”

Yoo Ho-bin briefly looked at the question below the email requesting T.O.Z’s Smezi store opening that appeared on his computer, asking if there were any other singers to request additional information.

Now, Tiozae was at a crossroads.

A long hiatus until winning first place on a music show, receiving a rookie award, and finally releasing their first album.

In order for the next album to be as successful as the debut album and repackage, it was important to manage this hiatus well.

And, within that, the manager’s role was more important.

“… … .”

Yoo Ho-bin, who was chewing on the flesh inside his mouth, rolled his eyes after checking a message that had just arrived from Kim Chun-yong.

[Thank you for listening to me even though you must be busy! Have a great day today ♬]

Even though he was not able to properly perform his duties as a manager because he was distracted by other things, his idol sent him messages of encouragement.

How shameful and yet so grateful it is.

Besides, it wasn’t just Kim Chun-yong.

When Yoo Ho-bin entered the chat window that he shared with the members of T.O.J, it was also full of messages sent by other members.

[Binbinbinhobin hyung, Logan and I arrived in Daegu! ㅋㅋㅋ This is a gift for hyung (photo)(photo)]

[Hello, Hobin hyung. This is Siwoo. My older brother wanted to send you some health supplements this time… Can I send it to your company?]

The youngest line, who were much younger than them, were preparing gifts for their managers even though it was their first vacation in a long time… .

[Hobin hyung, I’m just telling you now, but thank you so much for last year. You must have been very confused because you were an ordinary person who didn’t know anything… Thanks to you hyung, I’m learning a lot and doing well! Haha]

[(Gift cone) (Gift cone)]

[Brother Hobin, please let me know as soon as the meeting date is set. I will go up so that you don’t have to come down to Jeonju.]

The eldest brother line, who always wants to ease the workload, shows off his/her own maturity in a very good way.

okay.

There was no time to spare when it came to such an idol and such a singer.

“…after.”

Yoo Ho-bin took a deep breath as he turned off the simultaneous entry request email from Lady Swan on the additional request line.

Selection and focus.

That was exactly what he had to do now.

“…good.”

His sharp eyes sparkled and he began to carefully look over the other program plans.

In order to arrange the schedules of other members besides Kim Chun-yong, Logan, and Son Jae-ha, who are scheduled to appear as mentors on the survival program.

“Yes, hello. This is Yoo Ho-bin from AG Tioz. I’m contacting you regarding the program you sent me the proposal for this time.”

and….

“… Then I will tell Mr. Mars the same. Please take care of me.”

– “Oh, yes. We’ll be the ones to take good care of it! Um, and if it’s okay with you, Manager… .”

“…yes?”

As if to reward him for his determination, things started to go in a very good direction.

* * *

They say good things come all at once?

If it is called a double slope, then this was also a double slope.

[A surprise appearance by a new star! Meet WEZ and Smezi from February 21st♡]

Ah, along with the long-awaited news of Tioje’s Smeji store opening… .

[Music Days’ New Survival ‘Flick Boys’ Fully Visible… Super Luxurious Mentors? “There are also past survival idols.”]

[ Jeong Yeon-woo, Lee Se-ryeong, and who else? Why we’re looking forward to the Flick Boys]

[Tioze’s second survival sortie, this time from mentee to mentor?]

Because the news about the survival program that many people worked hard on, which had sent shivers down Kim Chun-yong’s spine, has started to come to light in earnest.

“Ugh… .”

Kim Chun-yong, who confirmed this fact while lying on the bed at his parents’ house, let out a sigh while scratching his hair, which was now starting to lose its color and turning almost pink.

Well, it’s common for tension to set in when starting something new.

– X: Hmm, so do you think you know what skill I gave you as a gift? Hahaha

– X: Ah~ I hope the day comes soon when you get to try that out~

– X: I want to see you panic quickly~

When I look at my ex’s messages that are constantly bugging me on my phone, even those thoughts quickly disappear.

This part was a little problem during the vacation.

[What is this? What is this (??)]

At a time when we are too busy concentrating on what will happen next and preparing countermeasures, X, who brought about a new innovation in the company union, has installed some ridiculous skill on his status screen.
