Debut or Die - Chapter 199

If I can’t debut, I’ll get sick to death Episode 199

The ‘bomb’ I planted exploded shortly after while I was practicing for an encore concert with a behind-the-scenes camera attached.

“Now, kick to the right~ and go to the side again… Brother be careful!”

“… … big.”

Bae Se-jin, who almost got his feet twisted, rearranged the choreography again with his ears burning.

Even though their dance stat has risen to C, they are struggling with the difficulty of the choreography that has become even more bizarre.

‘It’s not my time to talk about others either.’

The moment I thought I had to reorganize my stats to do a unit stage with Cha Yoo-jin.

There was a small commotion behind the door of the choreography practice room.

It sounded like raising one’s voice.

‘Did you come?’

I have a feeling. But you don’t have to pretend to know.

“what?”

“hmm?”

First of all, the camera immediately stopped filming. Because it was too loud to ignore.

The choreography ended just after the chorus, and after the members finished their movements, they looked at the door of the practice room with half panic and half worry.

“Who is talking about… ?”

“… There won’t be anyone else here right now.”

“for a moment.”

Ryu Chung-woo, who left a wink, stood up and tried to grasp the situation, but the door opened one step ahead of him, and a faceless man suddenly entered the practice room.

“… … !”

He was a man who appeared to be in his early to mid-thirties. After that, the first manager, who had a miserable red complexion, hurriedly followed.

He ignored the first manager, bowed his head at us, and started passing the takeout glasses in his hands.

“Ah~ Hello our testa artists. oh nice to meet you! Oh, I brought this to you to practice fighting while eating one.”

“who are you??”

He answered neatly to Cha Yoo-jin’s words, which he immediately accepted from the drink.

“Oh, I am the new manager this time.”

“yes?”

Of course, it overlapped with the chief’s cousin who brought donuts a while ago.

“Um, you’re different from the person I met a few days ago~?”

“That friend will now follow you around and work as a road manager, and I’m in charge!”

Overall.

That means Chief Manager.

It also means that the first manager, who had been a dedicated manager until now, has suddenly taken the stone that rolled in as his boss.

“With such a busy schedule, it would have worked properly if there were three people in charge… Oh, and don’t worry about it in the future. I’ll take care of everything, so you can contact me right away if you’re uncomfortable!”

“no… … .”

Well, the first manager still looks flustered. Didn’t you get any comments?

The guy who became the chief manager looked at his first manager and said regretfully.

“Manager Kim must have had a hard time doing it alone. From now on, let’s manage the needs of our artists more systematically. I also try to check injuries and physical condition by time zone every day.”

The first manager advertised that he was pushed out of the promotion line because he hadn’t been able to properly care for the group.

Yes, that is the justification that the management chief will push for a new one.

‘Artist-centered care!’

If I had just blown wind into him, the composition of the head of the department and the general manager might have gone to the senior group versus the junior group.

It is because the general manager simply pushed the junior side, so there is a high probability that he chose the remaining option, the senior-testa.

Then, it may have come to a needlessly tired situation in which the two groups are exhaustively used for political quality.

However, if you insert one more variable here, the story changes.

‘The juniors also blow some air into the chief.’

Yes.

As soon as I entered the country, I contacted the second place in the junior group through the second manager.

-I’m sorry, senior. You gave me advice, but I couldn’t do it properly… .

-no. You did it. You persuaded me. Of course, it’s unfortunate that you’re having a hard time mentally because the company hasn’t made any concessions.

-yes… . Oh, no, it can’t be helped, and we’ve caused trouble to our seniors and their fans!

– We hurt each other. hmm… If you still have a hard time, there is a way to talk to the management room.

-The management room??

– Group care is in charge of the management office. Wouldn’t it be nice to speak up for you?

And this is what it says.

‘I can’t help it because it’s already planned, but it’s so difficult, so I want to avoid being involved with senior groups from now on’, he said.

Then the juniors who have already used my advice once will try it.

-… thank you! I’ll take a chance and try it.

He seemed like the wild type, so he must have taken good care of it.

Then, suddenly, the head of the management office has a common vision like a flash.

‘The general manager is ignoring the artist’s will!’

‘The incompetent general manager is trying too hard to put a spoon on artists who can produce themselves!’

It must have been my favorite catchphrase.

Refining this into more formal language gives us the words we saw earlier.

‘Let’s go to the center of the artist (not the general manager)!’

Of course, there is no way that the head of the department has much interest in the care of real artists.

It was important that I had such a justification to defeat the general manager.

Perhaps the Testa-friendly AR team or the production and marketing side, which is ruthlessly grinding to repackage the finished concept, will sneakily jump on the bandwagon here.

‘Then it really becomes a faction.’

And it seems to have worked quite well.

Seeing that the manager manpower, the symbol of ‘artist care’, has been structurally reorganized.

Coincidentally, the symbolic chief manager tapped the first manager and continued talking.

“To commemorate the three of us as a dedicated team, why don’t we have a simple drink today? Let’s talk.”

“… uh yes yes sure.”

The first manager eventually gave in with an astringent expression.

Of course, he seems to have finally realized that there is nothing good to say because his head has cooled down.

‘It’s self-employed.’

I gazed at the scene with delight.

After that, it seemed like I could see the current company situation.

‘I wish they would keep each other in check and bite off each other.’

Aren’t there any worries that the Parachute Chief will press the head of the headquarters, grab the company, and do whatever he wants?

yes no

‘That bastard can’t work.’

just… In this entertainment business, the top players who want to make their own achievements and achievements just need to consume all their energy fighting each other.

In the meantime, while the group is leading the work, the working-level staff can do their work diligently.

“Then, fighting practice~ See you guys soon!”

“yes!”

“Welcome in!”

The chief manager gave out his number and left with the words ‘Please feel free to contact me anytime’.

And only then did the first manager start to roll his head.

“… Guys, isn’t that person a bit uncomfortable? What came all of a sudden?”

It means to take sides.

Big Sejin smiled brightly and spoke.

“Ah, it’s the first time I’m meeting you, and I can’t help but feel a little uncomfortable! Still, you seem to be paying a lot of attention to us, so I’m looking forward to it! I am also grateful.”

“The shakes are delicious!”

Cha Yoo-jin shook her drink from the side.

In the end, the first manager left the practice room with an expression as if swallowing insults.

‘A fool.’

I clicked my tongue.

You should have known long ago that the kids aren’t stupid and Ryu Cheng-wu works more than you.

I don’t know if there are guys who haven’t thought about whether that’s justified.

“ah!”

You probably didn’t know about a guy like Kim Rae-bin who exclaimed over there… … .

“Now I see!”

“… … ?!”

The words came at the perfect timing and I stopped thinking.

Kim Rae-bin continued with an admiring expression.

“Thanks to what Moon Dae-hyung said in the recording studio, this situation… .”

“for a moment.”

To openly bring up this story when seven staff members are around.

no more than that… .

‘Did this bastard understand this situation?’

Quite suspicious. However, Kim Rae-bin was steadfast.

“What did Mundae say?”

“yes! I think the company gave me good feedback thanks to Dae-hyung Moon openly sharing the hardships and emotional pain the group went through!”

“… … .”

“Oh yeah? Did you say that Moon University was really hard?”

“yes! You asked me too. I felt this opportunity to change the reaction of the opponent only when I express such a difficult situation clearly.”

“Yeah~”

“… … hmm.”

hi go.

So, this guy has figured out a very basic structure.

‘Testa clearly showed a tough tee. → The company paid more attention to group care!’

that this algorithm.

It was at the theoretical level without any options, but those with a similar level of interpersonal thinking began to react first.

That’s what I was struggling with a lot.

“It’s dumb… … .”

“… I see.”

It didn’t.

“Thank you for always teaching me.”

You’re not going to be proud of this either.

In the midst of this, Keun Se-jin laughed and applauded.

“Yes, thanks to Mundae, it worked out well~ It’s cool~”

This bastard is doing this on purpose. I’m getting quite hot

… However, after that, quite a boney remark followed.

“But let’s not push ourselves too hard. Moondaemun University Do we have mouths too? Let’s share it with us, not with Rabin~”

“… … !”

“Yes, it’s Moondae.”

Liu Qingyu closed his eyes and nodded.

“We are a group. It has seven heads, and if we discuss it, we might come up with a good way.”

“… … .”

Since I have a history, it seems that all the discerning people noticed that I deliberately spilled my words.

And I won’t deny it.

It was a fairly reasonable statement.

‘I was a bit impatient.’

It’s so comfortable and fast that I handle it alone, so I keep overlooking that this is an action that affects the whole group.

All of these guys were affected, so they definitely deserved to be consulted.

‘In the future… It’s okay to proceed after talking.’

Isn’t it such a long time to see your face every day?

I nodded.

“yes. Yes.”

“okay!”

Ryu Cheong-woo jokingly added a word.

“Since there are parts to complement each other, fans, um, so… Wouldn’t the ‘shareholders’ have chosen you like this?”

“I like my hair!”

“Cha Yoo-jin has no official intelligence test results. subjective opinion… .”

“Better than Kim Raebin.”

“okay? Shall we do a psychological test with our content later? Whatever it is, try the MBTI formally.”

“great!”

“I think it will be very interesting content!”

The quarrel ended in an instant.

‘He’s not a leader for nothing.’

I glanced over at Ryu Cheng-wu.

As my perception as a member of this group solidified, my empirical repulsion towards this guy definitely diminished.

‘Hmm, that’s fine.’

Now it seems to be back to the previous level. I admitted it in my heart.

Seon Ah-hyun from the side nodded her head with her eyes shining.

“Then, in the future… If it’s hard, let’s discuss a lot with each other… !”

“okay.”

The atmosphere in the practice room was friendly.

And practice resumed soon after, leaving behind the staff who cried out in silence that they couldn’t capture this on camera.

another few days later

“oh.”

In Mirinae’s music video, which was finally released, the traces of ‘Magical Boy’ were completely removed.

– Until the temporary editing, there was a short video inserted in the middle of the cutscene!! I was worried a lot, but it’s really thanks to you! thank you!

Through the manager, a one-sided appreciation from a junior who seemed to raise it almost three times arrived.

‘It’s neat.’

Articles that dared to link Mirinae, who had been secretly encouraged by the agency, with Testa also disappeared from the main page.

When Testa’s fans couldn’t find a more unpleasant rice cake, they said, “T-One did T-One” and let it go for now.

It is because the news of the encore concert unit stage broke out and attention was focused on it.

-Crazy Cha Cha-young Unit? You came here to discipline K-pop. If you can’t see it, you’ll die

.

“Wah ha ha!”

I called out to myself for the first time in a long time while watching Cha Yoo-jin lying on the bed next to me.

‘Status window.’

However, it is not mine to check first.

Cha Yoo-jin’s status window.

‘Before the unit stage is finalized, check one more time and complete the countermeasures.’

Let’s see how the monster’s stats have changed.
