NOVEL NEXT chapter 23
[23] Auspicious (4)
Superstars are born in fierce competition.
Like Solar, who came in first place in the first contest.
＜Top Idol＞ For the public and reporters
Season 5 was described like this.
A competition between representative 4th generation girl groups.
A series of unpredictable competitions.
Solar, who has just debuted, has shaken the strong position of Isolation.
It was obvious how hard each of them would prepare for the second stage.
“Sia unni, can we do well?”
“Of course.”
“Ugh, all of a sudden, the stage after the B-Girls…”
“It’s okay.”
As she prepared for her first stage, Ryu Shia’s eyes were full of poison.
At the previous stage, I tried to ignore the high score of 88 that the B-Girls received.
‘I have nowhere to go down now.’
So far, Luna has not been able to perform well known to the public.
Soon, they will become one of the many girl groups that debut and disappear quickly.
‘Because manager Jeong Soo-ho helped me.’
If you are going to play reggae, manager Jeong Su-ho tells you to prepare well.
I was ashamed of the past, when I tried to get caught up in the reggae atmosphere.
Hand gestures, facial expressions, and ad-libs are important on the reggae stage.
I tried to fit all his tastes.
After all, he’s Solar’s competitor, but I was moved by how he didn’t spare any advice.
“Guys, let’s go!”
“OK!”
Luna went on stage, and the prepared sound source played.
Music that would come out of a vintage shop in the middle of Jamaica.
“Yes-“
Although the audience was surprised by the unexpected beat.
Soon, I felt excited by the exciting music and left my body.
I wouldn’t have even bothered to listen to this song if it wasn’t for manager Jeong Su-ho’s recommendation.
Actually, I doubted whether the reggae genre would work in survival.
‘Mmm, it was eaten!’
The tension on the stage changes according to the reaction of the audience.
Lucia felt a satisfaction she had never felt before.
Wasn’t she once the most anticipated star of the Q & G label?
‘This is the real stage.’
How futile it was to adjust and be considerate of the other members.
The best opportunity to show off your hidden talents.
She forgot her trainer’s teachings and let her charm flow freely.
By the time I finished the ending pose after playing like crazy.
Applause erupted from the audience, which had never been received before.
‘Ah… It’s over.’
It burned white for a stage that lasted less than 5 minutes.
She looked at a person scratching the back of her neck in the audience.
‘Thank you, Sensei.’
Jeong Su-ho, who recommended the reggae genre and improved his sluggish skills.
More than anything, he was the one who made me realize my role on stage.
‘I have to grow harder.’
Because he is the treasure of the Q&G label, not Solar.
When Luna grows up, maybe we can take care of her together.
Mate, mate mate—
Amid the continuous applause from the audience, someone picked up a microphone.
I was one of the four judges to evaluate the second contest.
“I saw a stage of a unique genre.”
Lucia gulped and waited for his evaluation.
Soon, the judge smiled and opened his mouth.
“It was the best performance I’ve had all season.”
“!!!!”
It was an unexpected compliment.
“I think I saw a side of Luna as an artist.”
Shortly thereafter, the score of 92 went up on his trial board.
If it is combined with the score of the audience evaluation team, it may go up even more.
Soon, the MC put the two teams on the stage and continued the next order.
“Could Luna really surpass her be-girls?”
Begirls and challenger Luna, who have already scored 88 points.
The two teams looked at each other and their eyes flashed.
* * *
The reggae stage where he gave advice as cheaply as possible.
I was convinced after seeing the cheers erupting from the audience.
If even one gesture offends my eyes, it will surely succeed.
‘It works with other girl groups besides Solar.’
Except for the downside of not being able to trust your own instincts.
It’s literally a cheat key limited to the entertainment industry.
‘This should have worked for stocks and coins.’
Suddenly, I realized how amazing her late grandmother was.
Why is Eom’s father so good to our family?
“Jiyu, are the solar fan club members here?”
“Yes. A lot.”
In the end, it could not be dismantled and the scale grew enormously.
I’ll have to get in touch with the manager to see if we can get through.
“Jiyu, you go and ask for the cafe manager’s number.”
“Okay.”
The role of a fan manager includes communicating with the fan club.
Although it was a little uncomfortable because it was an editorial, not an official fan club.
‘I’d rather communicate.’
At that time, I heard a familiar junior voice from behind.
“Seniors!”
“Oh, Sangmo.”
Perhaps because it was Luna’s turn, a cameraman followed suit next to Sangmo.
“Thank you!”
“Are you thanking me?”
“Yes! You gave Sia and the kids some advice.”
“Ah, it’s nothing.”
It doesn’t wear out just because the back of the head is a little itchy.
To be honest, even though I taught you, I felt a bit sorry.
‘Ugh, it’s not easy.’
From my point of view, I have to tell you what to do.
Even to my ears who enjoy listening to reggae music, how bad would others be if they were cheap?
With that thought in mind, I was embarrassed to advise him to change his hand gestures unnecessarily.
“Oh, the scores are announced!”
“No way.”
Wouldn’t Luna really win?
When I was watching the B-Girls stage, the back of my head didn’t itch.
I am also a person who is moved when I hear Kim Na-bak’s songs.
‘The B-Girls did a good job.’
Objectively, anyone can see that the stage is complete.
As a result, I received a high score of 88 points.
Beep beep beep—
Soon, the scores of the two teams fluctuated up and down on the display board.
‘My butthole is my skill…’
[Begirls 88 vs Luna 91]
I won.
“Waaa!!!!”
After the results were announced, cheers erupted from the audience.
The juniors jumped around and liked how happy they were.
“Senior! I won!”
“I know.”
I was also dumbfounded and stood there blankly.
The junior opened his mouth with a voice mixed with admiration.
“As expected, I’m not surprised that you predicted it!”
“…”
No, I’m surprised.
I was surprised by my intuition.
“You are more genius than any producer I know!”
“… I’m not even a music major.”
“Do girl group producers always have music majors? Their eyes are better than those majoring in music!”
“Because it’s not like that.”
Why is the cameraman next to me taking pictures?
‘Aren’t you putting the camera away?’
The assistant director beckoned me to at least express my impressions.
I’m not even Luna’s manager, so why are you asking me to do it?
“Uh, yes. Congratulations. The stage was great.”
“… End?”
“End.”
Oh stop Even if you keep beckoning, there’s nothing more to say.
“Here I am announcing my impressions.”
Hearing my words, the direction the assistant director turned his gaze.
Lucia cried while announcing her impressions.
“Thank you so much to manager Jung Soo-ho for giving me warm advice…”
Anyone can see that I won this contest.
* * *
Yeji was overcome with strange feelings as she listened to Shia’s announcement.
When her childhood sister took away her prized doll.
When Luna and Solar split, her debut date was delayed.
‘And now…’
Looking at Luna’s leader expressing gratitude to the manager.
As if a hole had been pierced in a corner of her heart, she felt empty.
“Guys, we have to work harder.”
“Oh, that’s right. I never thought Luna would be this good.”
“…”
It’s not just this stage.
You must do well in the future.
It is common sense that a competent manager takes care of a higher level entertainer.
She felt a great sense of crisis that manager Jung Soo-ho might be taken away.
“How do you beat 91 points?”
“How many points did we have last time?”
“… 85 points.”
“Ah.”
＜Top Idol＞
Luna’s contest with the highest score during the Season 5 stage.
If I made a mistake on stage, I could lose by a huge score.

Knock, Knock-
At that time, a staff knocked on the door outside the waiting room.
“Solar members, I’ll prepare right away!”
“…We have to win.”
Hearing Yeji’s murmur, the members around her reacted.
“Moya, I just want to enjoy the stage.”
“Somi, you should enjoy what you enjoy while playing games.”
“A while ago, my sister must have been…”
Somi looked at Yeji’s maddened eyes and shut her mouth.
She was timid and held onto Diana’s hand, who couldn’t even keep her mouth shut.
Then, Eunseo quietly opened her mouth.
“Of course we have to win. Who’s on stage to lose?”
“As expected, our second. Very good posture.”
“Good.”
The leader tapped Eunseo on the shoulder and looked away.
Soon after, she approached Joo-hee, who was exercising her bare body.
“Joo-hee, you’re losing your strength because you’re going to win, right?”
“Ah…?”
“Shut up?”
“Ok?”
Yeji said, wrapping her third shoulder with her hands.
She sees the madness mixed in her pupils and who will say no.
“Gritch.”
Even the strength of the physical body was mere fabric in the face of real madness.
Yeji shows a stronger fighting spirit than ever before.
It was like the posture of a general going to the battlefield.
“Gentlemen, let’s go get Luna!”
“Gazua!”
Five warriors to break the girl crush.
There was no innocent girl group Solar in this place.
After a while,
The members of Solar, who will captivate the hearts of girl fans, stepped onto the stage.
-Anna with D.
Diana’s signature sound used during the Matdis battle.
Her beat in collaboration with Seo Tae-sung resonated on stage.
In a dark background, dazzling lights illuminate five places.
Yeji’s clean tone adorns the introduction.
Soon, the audience was captivated by Solar’s powerful performance.
‘It came out.’
Soon after, Yang Joo-hee walked confidently to the center of the stage.
A 45-second break dance given to only one main dancer.
To a beat that was much more powerful than her previous one, the windmill overpowered her.
How much effort did you put into that pose?
How much weight have you lifted so far?
Yang Joo-hee stayed alone and practiced breaking even when the light in the practice room went out.
Today, on the splendid stage, the fruition was shining.
‘You’re doing well, our third.’
Yeji smiled and turned her gaze to the third, who worked really hard.
She found a man sitting in the center of the audience, next to the camera, scratching the back of his neck.
As always, as if embarrassed, he was scratching the back of his head and appreciating.
‘Our manager.’
You liked girl crush.
Please tell me in advance.
* * *
It’s not my taste at all, but I won lightly.
“Solar… 95 points!”
MC Lee Soo-yeon lost her neutrality and shouted with a startled expression.
In fact, except for the Luna fans, everyone gave it a perfect score.
“How can you get such a score!?”
The judges, who had previously praised Luna, changed her stance and showered Solar with high praise.
“Wow, today’s greatest performances continue to come out.”
“It’s pleasing to the eyes and ears.”
“The Q&G label was a famous girl group.”
“I thought there was only a jet kick.”
“Aha, this is the Queen’s agency! Somehow.”
“Then you understand.”
The queen only creates a worldview and has no interest in it.
I heard she’s working on an album by herself now.
The members of Solar shared a hug with Luna, who fought well even though they lost.
＜Top Idol＞
1st place in two contests in a row.
I got the highest score all season.
“Congratulations, senior!”
“…”
The only ones who put on a good stage were the members.
I always hoped that only auspicious things would come in front of Solar.
You should try harder.
“I still lack a lot.”
“No, it’s 95 points, but is it still not enough?”
“…”
Not on this stage.
.

That evening,
I took the members to the dorm and got out of the van.
Right now, the schedule for tomorrow is piled up like a mountain.
Especially, Yeji and Eunseo had to audition for actors.
“Hey, manager.”
“Yes?”
Yeji smiled and asked me a question.
“Today is a good day, can we have a dinner?”
“What kind of party is a girl group?”
“Of course?”
“Eat the salad.”
“Ah.”
Eun-seo, who especially likes alcohol, became pouty.
Honestly, I could agree if it weren’t for tomorrow’s schedule.
“We thanked the manager and asked for a dinner.”
“To me?”
“Yes! Thanks to the manager, I got 95 points!”
“You did well.”
＜Top Idol＞
Girls with a completely different look from the strong side they showed in ”.
The children in front of you have become a girl group with the most buzz these days.
‘It’s really grown up.’
He hid his inner feelings and opened his mouth in a serious tone.
“Yeji and Eunseo, let’s prepare for the audition starting tomorrow.”
“An audition?”
“Yes. Actor audition.”
“Eh, we still have the last stage of Top Idol.”
“The third stage is…”
In fact, it didn’t mean much to Solar, who had already peaked.
No matter how good you are, you can’t get a better grade than today.
“The other three will prepare.”
“…”
Rather, it was better with two people missing.
Even if the score drops, there is a reason.
“If both of you audition, I’ll think about a dinner party.”
“Ohhh, good!”
“Come on, let’s all go in and sleep.”
“Yes!”
I turned around and watched the little girls walking away endlessly until they disappeared.
Have any of the artists I raised ever been this successful?
That I am no longer a star, but a star that I raised myself.
“…Reverse betting.”
Is there anyone other than me who raises a girl group with just ‘feeling’?
No matter how good his skills were, the back of his head would itch if he was a little intrusive.
“Hmm, you’re quite meticulous.”
“Oh what?”
At that time, Eunseo smiled and gently lifted the black envelope.
“You bought something to eat.”
“Yes. I didn’t expect you to keep an eye on me for this long.”
“…”
I was just standing there.
I didn’t buy a drink though.
“Ah, okay. You just need to eat a little.”
“… Go in and sleep.”
“Manager, are you going to do the audition because of me? Just because I have greed for acting.”
“Huh? Isn’t it?”
It was made by Dream Agency.
“Chi, even if you don’t say that, I know everything.”
“…”
Not really.
* * *
Next day,
I received a script for audition practice recommended by Dream Agency.
SBC’s courtroom emotional drama.
I heard that Suyeon Lee is working behind the scenes.
“Suho, the head of headquarters is looking for you.”
“You’ve been looking for me often lately.”
“It’s a level of encouragement for doing well on stage.”
“But.”
I continued the conversation with the script given to me by Manager Park.
“Chief, does this feature actress Lee Soo-yeon?”
“Well. I heard they’re reviewing it positively.”
“…”
It’s not unusual for the back of my head to keep itching.
The author is famous, so he’s worth his name.
“Has the team leader read the script?”
“Uh. The script was okay?”
“…”
I personally have fun too.
“What’s wrong, what’s wrong?”
“No. Just.”
Because it’s so much fun.
That’s the problem.
