1st year Max Level Manager chapter 643

Seoul Regional Qualifier 2

Go Eun-seo.

The 17-year-old's sophisticated appearance is more than that of a leading actress, and her singing ability is comparable to that of a veteran singer.

In addition, since I was young, I learned dance and the piano at a professional level, so I had strengths in dancing and sprinting on instruments.

Producer Ji Young-sik, an expert on audition programs, said he would become a young star as soon as he saw it.

That's to the point where I fall in love with it.

But she has a serious flaw.

My father is a third-term member of the National Assembly named 'Go Jun-taek' from Incheon, and my mother is Han So-ye, a former top actress.

Moreover, Ko Eun-seo knew that she was good by herself and had a selfish personality that only she knew, so during her Top Enter days, she created a team around her and broke 5 teams.

So, her nickname at the time was 'Go Dong-seol'.

It is said that the world revolves around Ko Eun-seo, just like the celestial and geocentric theories.

In the end, I had no choice but to weave the three members who thoroughly followed her instructions, formed a team rather than a team, made their debut, and made it to No.

At that time, the group name was 'PEONY', the English name for the peony flower, which was coined by Kim Dong-soo himself.

At that time, Kim Dong-soo said that the giant peony flower was the flower of flowers and the king of kings.

press play.

However, in reality, it meant 'flower without fragrance', which was a sarcastic meaning.

In addition to Go Eun-seo's selfish personality, she said that she was fed up with her mother Han So-ye's visit to the company on a fictional day and making various demands.

In any case, Kim Dong-soo, the world's best, was so tongue-in-cheek that most managers could not handle her and her mother.

therefore i was in charge

"Go Eun-seo You say?"

Without realizing it, I said in a panic, PD Ji Young-sik nodded.

Yes. Do you know any kid?"

I haven't seen the second audition video, so I can't say I know who she is.

"Oh, no. I was mistaken because my name was similar to someone I knew."

"Ah, is that so? Then see you later. Eunseo, she will definitely come out."

Producer Ji Young-sik is also from an audition pro, so he looks excited as if he was a contestant.

Among the 250 people who attended the audition this morning, Eunseo Ko stood out the most.

Well, I was like that too, when I first saw Go Eun-seo.

She pampered her until she ate three teams, and she did, until her mother, Soye, came to me about five times and asked to change the song or change the choreography.

However, seeing that there is no story about Han So-ye, it seems that they do not know who Ko Eun-seo's mother is yet.

At that time, PD Ji Young-shik said

say

"Ah, I have to shoot about two scenes in the waiting room right now, so please hurry up to prepare."

Yes.

Wooyeon-hee and Yang Eun-bi nod their heads, signaling that preparations for filming are over.

Ji Young-sik PEP} He turns his head out of the waiting room and shouts.

"Come in on the shooting team."

At the entrance of the waiting room, the filming team came in and started filming Wooyeon-hee and Yang Eun-bi putting on makeup.

I was even picking up an intro video for Project IOA and an interview.

Meanwhile, I began to ponder what to do with Eunseo Ko in the future.

Although I had the right to veto member selection as a project 'advisor', I have already said that I will not interfere with the selection of singers as much as possible.

Besides, the reason for producing Project IOA , in addition to promoting and successfully launching LO.A, is to recruit 2 singers who manage LO.A and singer part managers for 'Jeong Sil'.

Lengthening was also the main purpose.

So, I made a difficult decision.

Unless So-Ye Han or a member of the National Assembly uses external pressure, they will not be involved in the selection of singers.

This was because, after all, there were a lot of devices to filter out personality in the program.

A total of 7 judges participated in Project IOA on the first day of the regional qualifiers today.

Director Ahn Ye-eum, who has been running a music agency since the days of tape records.

Director Lee Dong-min, a former producer and producer in charge of the 2 singer rooms.

Three people, including Seon-nyeo Park, who became the hottest choreographer in the Korean entertainment industry, were the main judges until the end of the program.

And Chery Blossom's Wooyeon-hee and Yang Eun-bi, dance vocals with 20 years of experience.

Yoon Joo and lastly, Bullet's leader and my friend, Kim Jong Hoon, were the guest judges who could be replaced depending on the schedule.

Currently, the 7 people were checking the 1st and 2nd audition videos on the tablet in the judges' seat and sharing their opinions.

I sat on the chair next to the judges' seats.

And next to him was Jeong Sang-bong, holding a tablet.

But then, Jeong Sang-bong, who was watching the videos of the applicants on a tablet, asked

All.

"Chief. The quality of phone cameras these days is good, isn't it enough to skip most of them for the 2nd audition video? Why do you call 1,000 people for an on-site audition?"

"Oh, what? You will see for yourself in a moment."

Yes?

"It's better to see than to explain in words."

At that time, Director Lee Dong-min, seated at the center, says:

"Come on, let's begin~"

Director Lee Dong-min raises his hand.

A member of the host team wearing a black T-shirt opens the door connected to the waiting area.

"Come on, participant number 1, please."

At that moment, participation number 1, 19-year-old Inarae, comes in with a lively gait.

"Participation number one. This is Inarae! I am active as a YouTube BJ Raenaraena."

At that moment, the summit peak was unbelievable.

and squints his eyes.

Huh ?"

Jeong Sang-bong looks at the tablet with the first documents and the second audition video floating on it, then raises his head again and looks at Inarae.

"What is this?"

In the profile that Inarae sent, it is written that she is 161 cm tall and weighs 45 kg.

In the second audition video audition, a slender eight-headed beauty was dancing hard.

But Inarae, who appeared in front of her, was different.

He was about 155 cm tall, and his slender cheeks were a little chubby.

It was made thinner by using a filter on the video.

Of course, he was cute because he liked the original, but to be honest, he was a different person.

"This is why you are auditioning on-site. Because technology has advanced these days, I don't know what to do."

Jeong Sang-bong makes an absurd expression.

"It will all be revealed anyway, so why are you doing that are you?"

"It's a school gimmick."

korean mtl. online

As audition programs overflow, some dance academies or vocal academies use audition programs as their achievements.

For example, two people who passed the finals of the ; Idol Project , advanced to the quarter-finals of ; Super K Idol , etc. are advertised like an entrance exam school that puts up placards saying that they have entered several universities.

And because it can be used to promote the academy and increase the number of academy students, this is what is being done.

"What No way

"It's all about money. Still, there are some good kids from the academy, so let's see."

Yes

At that time, Director Lee Dong-min also doubts that Inarae Lee is from an academy and asks.

"It's a little different from what you see in your profile or video Is it different?"

"Ah, my physical condition was not good, so I gained some weight in a few days. I can go back soon."

You're right from the school.

Because they always tell you to round the horse like this.

Director Lee Dong-min noticed it right away.

"Are you going to school?"

"Oh, no?"

"Answer me honestly. Otherwise, even if you pass the audition, you may be rejected."

For a moment, Inarae smiles awkwardly and says.

"Actually, I'm attending a top idol dance school."

"Ah~ Where is Director Seong Dae-heon doing?"

Huh? Do you know our manager?"

Yes. I know."

Inarae's face is in full bloom.

However, it is a completely different story for Director Lee Dong-min to know well.

Because it was said that he knew him well as a half-scammer.

Still, there were some successful idols from the academy, so Director Lee Dong-min decided to listen first.

All right. So let's get started right away. Is the song you prepared 'HURRY UP' by Cherry Blossom?"

Lee Na-rae looks at Woo-woo-hee and Yang Eun-bi and raises her nose and says:

"I prepared hard with the determination not to lose to the two seniors. I will show you my own fresh charm."

I thought it was a strategy to appeal to his dignity, but on the contrary, he only stimulated the judges.

"I wish I had the skills as much as confidence. Come on, let's get started."

Yep!

Inarae poses while waiting for the accompaniment to come out.

Jeongbongbong exclaims that it is not funny.

"Chief. Isn't he too arrogant? How dare you say something like that about our Yeonhee and Eunbi?"

"Well, it's good to have a flair. Let's hear it for once."

Jeongbongbong wonders why I'm not angry.

but i'm not so mad

All.

Because no one has the right skills for someone who speaks with such confidence.

Waist~ Fishing! Lease - silver fishing!j

It was as expected.

It sounded quite plausible because I received vocal training at the academy, but the pitch is unstable and the breathing and rhythm are uneven.

It sounds that way to my ears, too, and I

It could not have been heard well by Director Lee Dong-min, who performed literary music.

Now that I see, the song included in the second audition video was recorded at the academy, then refined and submitted by an expert using the program.

In the end, the accompaniment of ; Hurry Up! came out, and within 30 seconds, director Lee Dong-min pressed the buzzer for rejection.

beep-.

When Director Lee Dong-min presses the dropout buzzer, the next one follows along and presses the dropout buzzer like a wave.

unanimous rejection.

However, Inarae cannot accept the result and is furious.

why? It sounds exactly the same to me, right?"

Director Lee Dong-min catches the dizzying spirit and answers.

no. Totally different."

"Then let's do it again! I mean, my academy teacher and my family are all the same!"

"Haha, okay. Then wait a minute."

Director Lee Dong-min looks straight at Woo-hee.

"It's Yeonhee. Can you sing me just one verse? Intro part only. So, you think he'll do this?

Okay.

Wooyeon-hee nodded and immediately sang without any accompaniment.

rHurry Up~! Listen Up~!j

Even though she is not the main vocalist, Wooyeon-hee's clear and pure voice resonates richly enough to fill the stage.

A clear high-pitched tone comes out of an incomparably rich volume, and the lyrics are clearly audible in the midst of it.

From English pronunciation with perfect diction, to leisurely singing without difficulty.

However, the vocals of the coincidence, with the melody line still alive, differed in level to the point that it was embarrassing to compare them.

"It's okay, Yeonhee."

Wooyeon-hee shook her head and bowed her head.

Director Lee Dong-min looks at Inarae again.

"Did you see it? I'm sorry to Narae-san, but the volume and vocalization. All the way down to technique. Isn't it too easy to see them as idols?

The moment she saw the huge difference in skill right in front of her eyes, Inarae slowly turned her eyes away and acknowledged it.

my I must have been lacking in practice."

In an instant, Director Ahn Ye-eum opens her mouth while thinking.

Nope. Mr. Narae this is an exercise

it's not The entertainment industry is one place where you can hone your natural talents or not, but it's difficult at the level of Mr. Narae now. And the director, Sung Dae-heon, is known as an audition instructor in the industry, so don't waste your money and find another way. Even for myself."

Director Ahn Ye-eum was advising Lee Na-rae for her life as an adult.

It was because he knew well how much the children who were tortured with hope in this industry were ruined.

But Inarae's face is bright red

With the crab burning hot, he ran out through the door on the right.

It will be difficult to accept right now.

However, I hoped today's audition would be good medicine for her.

By the way, Director Seong Dae-heon seemed to have to meet him in person if he had a chance.

They are selling children's lives and vain dreams.

"Come on, participant number two."

Much more than I thought, the judges were watching the judging neatly without missing anything.

Thanks to this, anticipation that the program would be a success began to rise.

As a result of auditioning up to number 100, only 5 pink dolls with a belt that read [IOA Seoul Preliminary Preliminary] given to successful candidates came out.

"I'm going to take a break."

When PD Ji Young-sik announced a break, everything

They sighed and headed to the waiting room.

I also have something to talk with Director Lee Dong-min, so I headed to the waiting room.

Upon entering the waiting room, Director Lee Dong-min and Kim Jong-hoon are fixing their makeup.

"Chief. Thank you.

"Shinq. By the way, it's not easy since it's been a while since I've been filming a TV show."

After greeting Jong-Hoon Kim, I looked at Lee Dong-Min.

"Why do you look like that? Are there any kids we missed out on?"

Even though I entrusted all the power to him, Director Lee Dong-min continues to try to get confirmation from me.

Judging from this alone, it seems like you did a good job saying that you would not interfere in this audition as much as possible.

If you can successfully carry out such a big project without me, on the contrary, you will be more confident.

However, I wanted to mention about Han So-ye, the mother of the late Eun-seo, who can come under pressure.

"Ah, that's it

It was then.

A murmur is heard from the hallway, and then a knock on the waiting room door is heard.

smart.

who are you?

- This is Kang Dae-woong.

It was Kang Dae-eung, the responsible CP for this ; Project IOA .

"Oh, come in."

CP Kang Dae-woong opens the door and enters.

And after that, Director Park Han-jong, Ji

Young-shik PD was all coming in.

"Chief. Are you here?"

"Heh heh heh. okay. okay. sit down Director Lee Dong-min, are you giving a pretty harsh review today?"

sorry. Even if I try to do it in moderation, there are a lot of aspirants who are not very basic...

no. It was nice to see you, because it reminded me of a good old temple. Rather than being too bland, it is best to shoot it like that. There are also some broadcasts coming out."

Oddly enough, the posthumous period is long.

It feels like something is missing...

It was then.

A high-pitched voice is heard from the hallway.

- Who is the chief? are you here

Soon, a beautiful woman in her 40s wearing a wide-brimmed hat entered the waiting room that was opened with the loud sound of shoes.

It was Han So-ye, Go Eun-seo's mother.

"Oh my~ Chief!"

no! who is this Aren't we one woman!"

Ho Ho! What is Mrs. Just call me Soye as before."

"But what's going on here?"

"Ah~ I want to see the chief."

She debuted at the age of 19 and was a top actress who enjoyed great popularity over the years, but retired from the entertainment industry after marrying a politician.

But now, she showed up with two men in suits who appeared to be assistants.

In that moment, I knew why she was here.

'I'm here to pressure you.'

Han So-ye must have secretly appeared in the waiting room with the director.

The reason for the waiting room was because it was impossible to enter without the help of the staff.

Anyway, Yangban is a bad person.

"By the way, what are you doing here? why? Would you like to work again?"

"Ah~ I am not an actor now. I'm busy taking care of my husband and raising my daughter~ What?"

A person who decided to hide his greetings with the chief

Soye smiles while looking at Director Lee Dong-min.

"This manager. It's been a while, haven't we?"

Director Lee Dong-min bows his head with a confused expression.

"Oh, yes."

Han So-ye was also a singer who released three albums due to her popularity as an actress in the past.

So we met each other.

"Today, my daughter Eun-seo came to play for an audition. ho ho ho. I heard you do family interviews or something? I haven't appeared on the show until now, but our Eunseo

When it comes out, I'm thinking of going out with a cheering car. He also allowed us."

Retired from the entertainment industry at the same time as she got married, she was offering this opportunity to appear on a TV show.

It was a source that was difficult to refuse considering the stimulating ratings at the broadcasting station.

But this is a request.

This is because once the world's best Han So-ye appears on TV, it will be extremely difficult to drop her daughter.

It was then.

Director Lee Dong-min said politely.

"I'm sorry, but I don't think you need to. I don't want to be entangled in the process and have the fairness of the selection questioned."

Han So-ye wrinkles the tip of her nose.

It's a habit you see when you're annoyed.

"Our manager. It's still frustrating, yes. Anyway, I want to go comfortably with people I know. What else are you so passionate about? And to be honest, even though she's my daughter, Eunseo. She is prettier and more talented than me, so you don't have to worry about it. And it's good that the ratings go up when I get on the air. no?

"I don't know."

Director Lee Dong-min is facing Han So-ye, but he can't strike it as hard as he thought.

At this point, even if I get angry, I have to push it away.

I guess I'll have to step in.

I said I would not participate in the selection of singers, but I have no intention of looking at this kind of external pressure.

'then. Shall we drive the wife of the National Assembly member Han So-ye out of here?'

After I got up from my seat, I started talking to Han So-ye in a broken way.

To get her out of here.
