Starting the next day, Kang Yoon began organizing a team. Kang Yoon was able to select the most important team members because he literally gave them power.
‘MG has a lot of people, a lot of people. ’
From the main director Oh Ji-wan, who has recorded and produced countless hit albums so far, to the ace of public relations, to Ji-yeon Lee, a prominent representative for reading media flows, Jua's first class manager who knows nothing about Jua, and MG's main composer Sulin, who will screen songs. Kang Yoon was an ace that everyone had heard of more than once in the past.
In his previous life, he didn't even have the opportunity to work with them, but now that he is the General Planning Team Leader leading them, Kang Yoon felt strong responsibility while thanking him for his new life.
Kang Yoon called the meeting for the first time in his office after screening his team members. After a brief introduction, all of the team came together, the meeting really began.
“The objective is to reach the Japanese market successfully and rank in the top 5 Oricon charts. ”
When Kang Yun spoke of the goal, everyone groaned. Aces, but the Japanese market was another problem. To a Korean singer, the Japanese market was still closed and costly.
“Do you know who is the most popular singer in Japan today? ”
Lee Ji-yeon brought up the first story. Everyone shakes their heads, and she continues.
“There's a solo singer coming up, Cisco Eye. Before that, there was a singer named May. What they had in common was that they were not dancing, they were singing with their creativity. ”
“So we have to battle with abilities, too. It's Jua's ability. I love it.”
Kang Min-min, the manager, commented. Then Sulin stepped in.
“But will the singing of a Korean singer satisfy your Japanese style? This is going to be quite an adventure. Lyrics, of course, have to be translated into Japanese, but it's not easy to change the style of music. ”
“This is my debut in Japan. So you have to understand the sentiment of the country. If there's acoustic music going on right now, I think it's safe to follow the trends. ”
“But what about Juá's style? Of course, she won't be weak in acoustic music, but that way she won't be able to show you any of the performance that she's used to. ”
The stories of Sulin and Ojiwan's producers were strongly confronted.
In the subsequent meetings, four people did not narrow their opinions. They thought too differently about Japan and Jua. Kang Yun, who had been silent for a long time, confronted the story of having to adapt to Japan now and pushing it according to Jua's style, said.
“Let's go to performance. ”
“Yes? But now in Japan, performance is dominated by male children. That's what's already happening. I think it's too much. ”
Lee Ji-yeon's surrogate shook her head. People feel familiar with what they are used to. Moreover, Japan is closed to foreigners. Koreans, too. They make me feel a little familiar. Performance. It was dangerous.
“No, performance is better. Honestly, there are so many more performances that Juia can show you than the Japanese male idol. It's because Joo surpasses them in his skill set. We are strangers after all. Wouldn't it be better to show them something new? ”
Lee Ji-yeon's surrogate emitted a murmur. There was a strange persuasion in Kang Yun's words. In fact, I'm a gangster.If I'm very good, I can't help it. Jua had such skills.
“So, boss, when you're doing performance, does the style of the song become a dance? ”
“I'm sure it will. With poppin-oriented dancing, why not take a groove to a live song that saves Jua's specialty?”
Kang Yoon answered the question of producer Oh Ji-wan. Then Ojiwan's producer clapped loudly.
“Grubra!! Huh, you didn't think of that. Huh, retribution can be retribution...”
“Japan has a longer history of contemporary music than we do. I think it's possible. ”
Kang Yun's words were not that long. However, there was strength in what he said. because there was logic. He was the captain of the anti-parachute team, but that wasn't the case after the meeting.
“Jua's specialty is rhythm, so if you're going to sing a groove, you'll love it. ”
Kang Minh's manager nodded to see if he liked it.
“To sum up, you want to take the groove to the main album. Intense performance driven. The concept of the album is to decide when the song comes out. ”
The sullen songwriter wrapped it up for me.
“That's right. You summarize the meeting today. From now on, Promotion Team 1 will take a look at the routes that will allow us to put a compress on the Japanese broadcaster, and the composer will choose a song. I think you should choose first and then with me. ”
“Yes.”
“Yep.”
Lee Ji-yeon's proxy and Seolmin's composer replied in their own style and wrote down important information.
“Oh Ji-wan PD, when you hear a song, make a guide song, think of it as a rehearsal and make a great guide song. ”
“Is there anything else? ”
“Not yet. It's going to be the busiest song ever, so rest now. ”
Ojiwan's producer nodded his head, and all that remained was the mob manager.
“Jua, you're managing your weight, right? ”
“Of course.”
“Body care is important, but more importantly, stress check. Try not to get a little stressed out. Let me go out.”
“But that would be against company policy. ”
“Keeping company policy makes Jua crooked. He's good at jua on his own anyway. You'll do better if you show her that we believe her first. ”
“I understand.”
After the check to details, the meeting ended that day. Everyone accepted the quota to work and left Kang Yoon's room.
Kang Yun, who was left alone, came back and dug deep into the chair.
‘Whew... It was hard. I still can't believe it. I can't believe I'm planning Jua's album. ’
He, also known as Minus' Hand, is now holding a meeting for Jua's album, the best singer. Kang Yun was still shaken. This whole thing was still a dream.
However, the sweet coffee scent that I felt on my mouth made me realize that this was not a dream.
‘We will, we will succeed!! ’
Kang Yoon looked out the window and tasted the coffee. And I made up my mind. This time it's gonna work.
.
.
.
The next day.
Kang Yoon and singer Jua faced each other in their offices.
“... if you have something to say, say it quickly. I'm busy.”
Jua was straightforward and strong. However, Kang Yoon treated the best singers who stood by me and did not lose his time.
‘Joo has no natural personality. I tend to hide my face. But once you think you're on the same side, you hold it all the way. Now you have to let me realize that I'm on the same side. ’
But there were standards in her own way. It was a skill. The incompetent were given to him who looked like worms. The singer, whatever, did not want to be with the incompetent.
“Jua, do you want to sing? ”
“A song? Why? ”
“I'm still the head of the planning team. Don't you think you should hear how you sing? ”
You were right. There were no words like this inside. Jua finally got up from her seat, grumbling. Jua clears her throat a few times and then starts singing.
“Don't forget - my name- You- my-”
As she starts singing, light begins to gush out of her. It was the light from the polite singer.
‘I like your voice. ’
I definitely liked the song. It was a great song that no one else could hear. But...
"Grey?"
The light from Jua was pale, but clearly gray. No, gray from a superstar. Kang Yoon frowned on his own. Jua stopped singing to see if something was getting in her way.
“Mmm-hmm. Sorry. I'll try again."
After a short cough, Jua starts singing again. However, Kang Yun again saw the gray from her. No, it was much darker than before. The gray light wrapped around the room and wrapped around Kang Yoon.
"What, this dullness? ’
Kang Yoon felt steamed all over his body as if it were covered in mud when it was gray. The steam that seemed to be in the pearls buried him and sinned all over him.
“… that's far enough. ”
I wonder if he felt uncomfortable with Kang Yun's expression. Even though the song wasn't over, Juia stopped the song. Then the sticky gray light disappeared like a lie.
‘Nonsense. It's gray from Jua. "
Even street singers have a clear white glow, but why does Jua have a gray glow? Kang Yoon questioned.
“What's going on lately? ”
“There was no such thing. ”
“But what's wrong with the song? ”
“What's wrong with my song? ”
“Is that what you're saying? You're singing the worst song ever. Are you singing a song without a last name, believing in a voice? ”
Kang Yun was angry. I am disappointed with the expectations I have for Jua. Dodge was good, but it was luxurious for a singer singing a song like this.
“I told you to sing it lightly, but the singer has to do his best every moment. When I practice, when I'm on stage. Isn't this how you learn to nail your ears when you're a trainee? ”
“..... ”
“Do you think your position is over because you always make it the best? Then that's it for you. I'm the one who hoped for you and didn't plan too much. That's far enough.”
Kang Yun was genuinely disappointed. Her voice was unusual, but her ability was to develop and sing her own song. Kang Yoon also liked her song and admired her always trying not to come down from the top. However, I was disappointed to see you like this.
“... I'll try again. ”
“Don't. There's nothing more to hear. ”
“Really, I'll try again. Please listen this time and rate correctly. ”
Jua straightens her posture and starts to untie her neck. After Kang Yun crossed his arms and said yes to something, she began to speak out.
“I thought-- you were-- but-- you were--”
A clear, clear sound echoes through the room. It sounded a little different from before. And the light began to appear in Kang Yun's eyes.
‘White.’
It's white. The gray is gone. An unmistakable white light comes out of her and covers her room with a subtle glance.
‘Looks like feathers. ’
I felt surrounded by white feathers. It felt a little ticklish. I heard it with my ears. It was clear and bright in my eyes. Then Kang Yun could smile.
“The others didn't know. You know very well.”
After the song, Jua looks surprised.
“It was awkward to hear. ”
“That's right. The first song I sang wasn't even a song. You couldn't have done more than echo. It's nothing. It's just nothing. ”
“Wait. Are you testing me? ”
“Your name is going to be my boss, but you should know better about me. ”
Kang Yoon laughed at Jua's candor.
“Come on. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, what do you think? ”
“I'll pass. ”
“Yes, thank you. Come on.Test the captain somewhere. ”
“Ouch!! I was wrong!!"
Kang Yoon squeezed Jua as she was, and she began to moan in pain. The first rough look disappeared as they came, and they became close so quickly. It was acknowledged by Jua.
“Please take good care of it. ”
“Take good care of me, boss. ”
“Me, too. Let's do it right. ”
“Hiya, hiya. ”
Jua, who held Kang Yun's hand, chanted a cheer while pranking. That's how the project started.
