83 – Preparation (5)

JYB.

Currently, it is called Korea’s best entertainment agency.

Two years ago, JYB was also the least competitive among the top 5 agencies, and it was at a precarious level to keep its reputation as one of the top 5 agencies.

But…….

A writer who appeared like a comet changed the entertainment world in an instant.

927 Author.

It is still a mystery why he reached out to JYB out of countless entertainment agencies.

Also, other entertainment agencies pointed fingers and cursed at JYB behind their backs regarding this matter.

If you buy into an entertainment agency, you will train idols well and make good songs, but what kind of acting is acting?

In general, this public opinion was strong, and most of the public’s thoughts were similar.

However, despite the bad eyes and concerns of the public, the collaboration between JYB and 927 artists was an unprecedented success.

Of course, JYB benefited the most from Fly High.

Right away, Baek Joon-young, the CEO of the place, became the most familiar and friendly image among people involved in entertainment companies, and thanks to the idols who starred in Fly High and the flash mob, JYB received a lot of attention and was re-examined. .

And as the saying goes, row when the water comes in, Baek Joon-young debuted ‘Hongryeon’, a girl group that included Lee Da-hye, and continued its upward trend. In just two years, JYB has grown to be called Korea’s best entertainment agency. Got

Of course, the profits JYB earned after Fly High were beyond imagination.

Also, Baek Joon-young, who was well aware that it was not achieved by his own strength, reinvested the profits only for the JYB family.

We are still researching to improve welfare, such as reorganizing the facilities of the company building to the latest, changing the ingredients of the restaurants used by most employees to organic ones, securing a resting space, and promoting an autonomous work system.

These efforts seem to have had a considerable effect, and recently JYB employees’ faces have been full of smiles.

The status of the company he works for is high, and even though the CEO pays utmost attention to employee welfare, it was rather strange that his expression was dark.

Of course, from Baek Joon-young’s point of view, the brighter the facial expressions of the employees, the better they feel.

But he couldn’t confidently express how good he was today.

“… ….”

Today is Saturday.

Although it is an entertainment agency, JYB is also off on the weekends unless it is a special case.

However, for some reason Baek Jun-young was inside the JYB headquarters despite the golden weekend.

As the representative of JYB, it is not at all strange to go to work on weekends. Rather, it was a natural situation for Baek Joon-young, who had to be in charge of a company.

The problem is that the reason Baek Joon-young is in JYB’s headquarters today is not because of work at all.

That’s why Baek Joon-young looked at the stage with a blank face.

The 4th floor where he is currently standing was one of the places that had been greatly reorganized recently.

Originally, this place was created for the purpose of increasing the trainees’ ability to practice on stage, but it is used more often for active idol groups to do a final check before going on stage.

Anyway, it was a place that was receiving a lot of favorable reviews from the employees, and Baek Joon-young was also quite satisfied…….

“I set up the props first.”

Baek Joon-young let out a laugh as he watched the objects slowly fill the stage.

Now, some high school students are forcibly occupying the place that the employees made for use.

To be precise, the theater and film department of Hanbit Arts High School was using the space on the 4th floor under the pretext of practicing for the competition.

Of course, there are members of JYB, Lee Da-hye, and the person in question…….

“Judging by the look on his face, it seems that he is being treated as an uninvited guest.”

At that time, a male student approached her with a cheeky smile.

It is a very familiar face to Baek Joon-young. We even talked to each other relatively recently.

“No… yes… what…. You are an uninvited guest.”

“Yeah, at some point you kept begging me to come to JYB.”

“Me? He was a real madman.”

Seo Eun-woo laughed at Baek Joon-young, who blamed herself for her past.

This is how the incident started.

Preparing for the competition only during club activities was not enough practice for anyone to see.

That’s why the theater and film department held an emergency meeting and came to a reasonable conclusion that we should gather and practice on the weekend.

The problem was a good place to practice.

First of all, there are various restrictions in deciding the location.

The most important thing among them is that the environment should be as similar as possible to the stage of the actual competition.

However, unfortunately, finding such a place on weekends is not easy. Most of the time, amateurs or active teams have scheduled performances, or rental fees are no joke.

What… In fact, the rental fee issue is not a big problem for the theater and film departments.

It was because right away there were quite a few members who had a lot of money for a student, such as Park Ha-joon, Seol So-young, and Seo Eun-woo.

So Ha-joon Park, the creator of this club, felt a sense of responsibility and tried to rent the place by paying his own money.

-I… I have a nice place…….

But then Lee Da-hye carefully raised her hand, and she showed a picture of her through her cell phone.

It was a photo of the 4th floor of the JYB head office building, where the theater and film department and Baek Joon-young are currently standing.

Starting from the lighting, similar environmental elements of the actual competition, and even the distance to Hanbit Art High School are close.

It couldn’t have been a really suitable place to practice for the competition, but Lee Da-hye was a little worried.

That was the permission of JYB CEO Baek Joon-young.

No matter how much Baek Joon-young loves the JYB family members and especially cares for Da-hye Lee, it is inevitable that he will be reluctant to invite outsiders to the headquarters.

So, if Da-hye Lee alone asks her to use the 4th floor, there is a high possibility that she will not listen.

Knowing that, Lee Da-hye carefully looked at Seo Eun-woo.

Seo Eun-woo, who naturally made eye contact with Lee Da-hye, tilted her head at first because she couldn’t understand the meaning, but immediately realized why she was showing her eyes asking for her help.

But there was one point that Lee Da-hye misunderstood.

She thinks of Seo Eun-woo as the successor of JYB. She obviously asked for help because she thought that the chance of success would increase even a little more if she persuaded them together…….

-CEO.

-What is it, why are you suddenly anxiously texting me? What happened again?

-Yes. It’s a big deal, so I’ll use the 4th floor of the headquarters building on the weekend.

-…… ?

Text content that is almost notification.

Actually, the moment Seo Eun-woo, the writer of 927, intervened, there was nothing to persuade.

Because…….

“From what I hear, you seem to have made quite a bit of money since Fly High.”

“… ….”

“I heard that this place was created after that too? Hey~ So, who is this place that was built thanks to?”

“…… It must be thanks to a talented writer.”

“Oh, so what would the writer do if he wanted to use this place?”

“Ehh…… Get sick or die Just use it comfortably.”

At the words of Seo Eun-woo, whose intention was obvious, Baek Joon-young had no choice but to raise the white flag.

Well, it is a space that could not have been created in the first place if it were not for the person next to you.

Moreover, no one uses this place on the weekends, so it should be fine.

“And please lend me a desk and a chair.”

“…… Why is that again?”

“It’s one of the props, but of course it’s hard to carry around, right? So I left it from the beginning with the intention of borrowing it from JYB. Couldn’t the company have something like that?”

“… ….”

“Ah! If possible, rice made with organic…… “

Junyoung Baek smiled broadly as he listened to Eunwoo Seo’s increasing demands.

In fact, he was smiling on the outside, but on the inside he was in a state of tears.

Then Baek Joon-young suddenly remembered an interview he had done in the past.

He was asked this question.

What is the secret to JYB’s success?

Baek Joon-young replied with a bitter smile.

-I don’t think it’s to the extent of being proud of being a success yet. Still, if I had to point out the secret, I think my inbok was good.

-Inbok?

It is an undeniable fact that writer-927 helped JYB grow.

-Oh, I think I have a very special relationship with the author of 927.

– hahahaha. As I said at the Cheongsang Arts Awards, he is someone I respect as a human being. You can feel it right away once you have a conversation.

…… Respect is bullsh*t.

Regardless of his age, the person next to him is definitely a cool and respectable person.

But Baek Joon-young was forgetting one fact.

That’s only for casual conversations, and not at all for private conversations like now…….

If I have to interview again someday, I will definitely say it.

For the sake of your mental health, if you can, don’t get involved with this person…….
