The members who were waiting for Do-wook at the dorm were busy asking what was going on as soon as he arrived. It was something I could have asked Oh Baek-ho, but for some reason I was too afraid to ask.

The members opened their mouths in surprise when they heard that they would be working on a song with producer Yong Soo-cheol.

There was nothing to be envious of. The members just shook their heads at Dowook’s level being so different.

Afterwards, the KK members and the staff in charge of KK were all having a hectic day as the music broadcast continued.

Including music broadcasts from the three public broadcasters and cable stations, there were music broadcasts on all days of the week except Monday.

The schedule continued with waking up early in the morning every day, going to the salon, getting my hair done, rehearsing and waiting all morning and afternoon, and then broadcasting in the evening. Meanwhile, the music ranking of ‘Sorry but I Love You’ was rising one step every day.

Although ‘Sorry but I Love You’ was now being played frequently on the streets, it was still difficult for the members who only visited the office and dormitory broadcasting station to feel such a response every day. The only thing members could directly check was the music rankings.

Sunday is back again.

It was the day of the second stage of ‘Life Song’ after finishing the debut stage on all broadcasting stations. This time too, KK was sharing a waiting room with other singers and waiting for her turn to go on stage.

Still, even though it was their second visit, none of the members were as nervous as they were on the first day. Kim Won even dozed off in a chair in the corner.

“What rank are you now?”

After Ahn Hyeong-seo looked at the clock on the wall, he grabbed Cody and asked. Cody shouted as if he was sick of Ahn Hyeong-seo asking questions every hour.

“4th place 4th place! “I’m in 4th place!”

“Are you not happy? “Why are you so angry?”

As Ahn Hyeong-seo complained, Park Tae-hyung, who was sitting next to him and quietly listening to the conversation, smiled faintly.

“Ahn Hyeong-seo and Kang Do-wook!!!”

Oh Baek-ho, who had gone out to meet the producer in charge of Life Song, came in and called Ahn Hyeong-seo and Do-wook. When Oh Baek-ho called out to the two in a spirited and energetic voice that he sometimes makes when he is very angry or conveys important matters, Ahn Hyeong-seo jumped up from his seat.

“yes! yes?”

Do-wook, who was sitting on the other hand and thinking about his work with Yong Soo-cheol, also turned his gaze towards Oh Baek-ho.

“You two need to get ready!”

And behind Oh Baek-ho, Seolreim, one of the MCs of Life Song who is making a name for herself as the nation’s little sister, stuck her head out and came in. The members’ eyes widened at the visit to the waiting room by a popular star who could not currently be compared to KK.

SVS Broadcasting Station Life Song Conference Room.

When it was confirmed that the male MC, who was originally in sync with Seolleim, would not be attending next week’s recording due to a sudden overseas schedule, the Life Song production team held an emergency meeting. Right next week. It was as if the light had been set on fire.

“Even if we were only promoting Man to Man, it would have been perfect to use Seo Kang-Jun! Don’t you think it would be perfect if we set it up with Lame? “Just right!”

Life Song PD said as if he was lamenting. These days were the off-season for idols, with most idols taking a break from their activities. It was difficult to find the right person.

One of the writers who was looking for a list of cast members and new male actors for the past few weeks took notice and asked the producer what he would think of KK as a special MC. KK’s broadcast response and rise in music rankings were surprising.

“K-K? “Aren’t you a total beginner?”

“I’m a rookie, but the response over the past few days has been so good. I think it will be big. “I think it would be better to show a fresh face and create buzz in advance rather than using people who are vaguely unpopular.”

“Hmm…….”

It so happened that he was the PD of Life Song, who watched KK’s debut stage from rehearsal and thought that they were a good group from pace to talent.

However, it was impossible to blindly appoint as an MC an idol member who had just debuted and had no proven ability as an MC.

“All I heard was hello and thank you. Is it okay to put kids like that on a live broadcast? Writer Kim. “This is a live broadcast.”

“uh? “Producer, haven’t you seen the student rapper video?”

Another member of the writing staff asked what the producer said. She had already become a fan of KK through being a student rapper.

“Student rapper? Was there a former student rapper on that team?”

“yes. There is also a former student rapper. Check out the interview video. A boy named Kang Do-wook speaks very well. “If I become popular later, I might be able to make him a regular MC.”

When the writers praised the PD, the PD also responded positively to some extent. One of the writers quickly found the full version of Dowook’s interview video on the Internet and showed it to the producer.

After watching the video, the PD immediately asked.

“Where is their company?”

“Hit enter.”

“Oh, the manager’s kids? Then again, it’s trustworthy. Are they coming later too? As soon as you arrive, let’s call Director Oh and coordinate. “No matter what, I feel anxious if I appoint only one person, so I’ll add a better person and make it three MCs.”

“Yes, I understand!”

“You guys called me over and let me practice. “No accidents.”

“yes!”

That’s how a member of KK was chosen as the special MC for next week’s Life Song.

***

Oh Baek-ho, who heard this, was happy and headed to KK’s waiting room where the members were. Oh Baek-ho was met with excitement in front of the waiting room.

and.

“Seo… excitement?”

When Seolreim appeared, Ahn Hyeong-seo muttered Seolreim’s name without realizing it.

“Hello~ Nice to meet you! “I really enjoyed last week’s performance~!”

“ah…! hello.”

Ahn Hyeong-seo greeted the cheerful and excited greeting, which seemed to have a laughing emoticon at the end of each word, with a bewildered expression. Taehyung Park, who was shy, just kept his mouth shut. The scattered members gathered together and awkwardly greeted Seolleim.

It was the first time I had a two-way greeting with a celebrity who was not from the same agency, rather than a one-sided greeting. It was also the excitement of being the nation’s younger sister.

The excitement was now nineteen. Last year, she debuted as the female lead student in the drama “Only One Person,” and although she only appeared in episode 4, she captured the attention of viewers with her outstanding tearful acting.

Seolreim had a friendly image like the little sister next door, but at the same time, she had a pretty appearance that could never be found next door. Coupled with his lively personality, it would not be an exaggeration to say that half of all Koreans, regardless of age or gender, from male teenagers, are fans of Exciting.

‘Now she is just a cute little girl who is loved by everyone, but ten years later she will succeed in an unconventional acting transformation and advance to Cannes.’

Dowook was looking at the exciting future. Nowadays, I see him as an MC for entertainment shows, but even after a few years, he was someone who would be difficult to meet unless it was a blockbuster drama or Chungmuro.

Oh Baek-ho explained to the members who were dumbfounded by the sudden appearance of excitement.

“Do-wook, it’s Hyungseo. You guys are scheduled to be special MCs next week. We’re here with Ms. Lame, so say hello. “Miss Lame, this is Ahn Hyeong-seo and this is Kang Do-wook.”

“hello.”

Dowook politely bowed his head towards the excitement.

Although he usually walks around with his bangs down, Dowook was currently slicking his hair down for the stage.

When Do-wook greeted him with a perfect appearance, from his exposed straight forehead to his nose-lined mouth, even his excitement made him blush a little. Even though I had seen enough handsome faces on broadcasting, something was different.

Do-wook had his own deep atmosphere. In fact, while watching KK’s stage last time from the MC’s seat, I was so excited that I thought Dowook really caught my eye.

“…But special MC?”

Do-wook asked Oh Baek-ho.

“okay. It’s next week right now, and we’ll only have time to practice for a little while. Still, I think it would be better to get to know her face in advance so that we can comment together… Actually, it makes sense for us to go to Miss Lame’s waiting room.”

Oh Baek-ho said, looking excited.

Oh Baek-ho, who heard the news about the special MC from the Life Song producer, immediately consulted with the company and decided on the remaining members to be appointed as MC along with Kang Do-wook, the member designated by the Life Song producer.

Without a long discussion, Ahn Hyeong-seo, who has a lot of talent, became the member to serve as MC, as Oh Baek-ho said.

Oh Baek-ho was about to take the two of them to say hello to Seolreum when he met Seolreum in front of the waiting room. Oh Baek-ho’s words made his heart flutter and he added with a smile.

“I thought you might come by to say hello! “It’s easier for me to move as one person than for many people to move.”

She was a truly beautiful girl, not only in appearance but also in heart. A calm smile appeared on everyone’s lips.

“Then, please take care of me next week~!”

The request was something that had to be made here. As Oh Baek-ho waved his hand and was about to reply, the waiting room door opened once again and a man with the appearance of a spring came in. It was the manager who came to pick up the excitement.

“I’m a fan of Mr. Seolleim! I will do my best!”

Hyeongseo Ahn shouted behind Seolreim, who was returning with her manager. Jeong Yoon-gi stopped Ahn Hyeong-seo, saying it was embarrassing.

“Wow angel she’s a angel!”

It wasn’t something that could be done by stopping only Hyeong-seo Ahn. Kim Won jumped around and praised the excitement.

“Is this a dream or reality? “I’m a real fan of excitement!”

“It looks prettier up close.”

Even Seok Ji-hoon agreed with Ahn Hyeong-seo’s words. It was something that Jeong Yoon-gi had no choice but to admit. Oh Baek-ho suppressed the rioting members at once.

“you guys!”

What to say after that was obvious. Oh Baek-ho has been saying, as if he were breathing, that he should be careful whether he is sitting or standing during his idol activities when it comes to drinking with his cell phone. This was a rule that was especially strictly applied to new idols. The members kept their mouths shut as if they had heard everything they were saying even when they said, ‘You guys!’
