chapter 192
[192] Celebrity life misunderstood as a genius (2)
Somi must have entered the exam hall by now.
Thanks to her popularity in her solar, she took Korean CSAT to the attention of the whole world.
Somi showed off her outstanding brain on the American broadcast, 「Brain」.
《This year, at the age of 19, what is Somi’s score taking the CSAT? She is called a genius girl…》
Where is the media
It’s very burdensome.
Drooling-
Just then, the office door opened and someone came in.
“Jiyu, are you here?”
“Yes!”
Ji-U came back after cheering on So-mi with her members.
Judging by the trembling in her voice, she seemed more nervous than I was.
“I only lightly cheered in the van because I was afraid it would interfere with the test.”
“Nice job.”
“Instead, when it’s over, I’m going to go and encourage everyone.”
“I’ll go with you then.”
“You want to go too?”
“Yes. That’s how it should be.”
Soon after, Jiyu pointed to the corner of her office and told me.
“They are all gifts from Somi.”
“Do you want to do well in the exam?”
“Yeah. Sunlight and the broadcasting station should send it.”
“…”
Gift boxes piled up like a mountain on one side of the company’s office.
No matter how pretty the packaging was, we had to tear it open.
“Let’s check everything before Somi’s CSAT is over.”
“Okay, I get it.”
“Cut it if it’s strange.”
“Yes.”
After Somi’s exam was over, I was thinking of setting up an overseas schedule right away.
“I’m leaving for America right away this weekend.”
“Oh, the Beyonce concert.”
“Yeah. I’m preparing for the guest stage, and I’m going to set up a schedule.”
“Okay.”
“CEO!”
At that time, team leader Koo approached and announced the news of the movie.
In Korea, the dignity of the king was slowly coming to an end.
“It’s the best ever.”
“Yes. Yeji and Eunseo were nominated for the Blue Dragon Film Award and the Grand Bell Award for Best Actress, respectively.”
“Good for you.”
Currently, the cumulative number of viewers in Korea is about 13 million.
Even, I still didn’t know that overseas popularity would cool down.
On the other hand, “First Apocalypse”, Which was a competing work.
‘… 5 million.’
Would you have imagined that you would not be able to cross the break-even point?
Considering the production cost, it fell short of expectations.
“CEO, are you going to America right away?”
“I’m leaving in a week or so.”
“All right.”
I checked my watch and got up.
“Where are you going?”
“I’m supposed to see Somi’s mother today.”
“Shall I come too?”
“No. I’ll go alone.”
“Yes. CEO.”
Room Madam also had a knives in her publicity.
Compared to Somi’s mother, she was very affectionate.
‘Is it because he’s a lawyer?’
Somi’s smartness is that she resembles her mother.
After a while,
I made her coffee at her appointment and waited for her.
She expected Somi to be very nervous about her CSAT.
Soon, a sharp-looking woman wearing glasses walked this way.
“Hello.”
“Ah, Somi’s mother.”
“Yes, that is correct.”
It’s hard to see him, but he’s often on the phone with Solar’s family.
In particular, Somi’s mother was not interested in her child.
Even though her daughter became a world star, she still only thought about work.
“I have to go to court, so I have to go right away.”
“Oh, you see.”
You are very busy today.
“It’s because of Somi’s exam today.”
“Yes. I know.”
“…”
Is that all there is to a reaction?
I didn’t expect her to be like this.
“Mom, when you go to America, you won’t see Somi again for a while.”
“I’ll trust you.”
“Oh, well…”
Even before her debut, Somi had a lack of affection for her.
She craved the love she didn’t receive from her parents from her members instead.
If that’s not enough, then I-or I gain strength thanks to the fans.
“Here, Mother.”
Even if you receive love from everyone in the world.
Because she doesn’t get attention from her family.
“Can’t you treat So-mi a little warmer?”
“Yeah? What is that…?”
“It’s just that. It’s commendable. Somi studied really hard.”
“…”
Recently, I devoted myself to studying for the CSAT all night long.
She’s that genius girl who can memorize anything once she sees it.
“Fans can’t fill the happiness you get at home.”
“…”
Sigh-
I took the keys to my Lamborghani from my pocket.
Then, without hesitation, she handed it to her mother.
“It’s a product that Somi got on her show.”
“Oh, I heard.”
“Are you listening?”
“She rode in the arcade.”
“…”
I guess you didn’t watch the broadcast.
“I’ll give it back to you.”
“You don’t have to do that…”
“Please deliver it directly to Somi. When you get back from America.”
“… Yeah.”
Complex emotions flashed on her face.
“I’ll be happy if you just give me a compliment.”
“… Okay.”
Is Somi the end of the home visit, or is it just the beginning?
She should go to America and see her Diana and her Emma parents too.
* * *
A high school in Gangnam.
Students who took the CSAT left school one by one.
For some reason, crowds gathered in the playground.
“Wow Solada.”
“It’s real.”
The four women arrive at school just in time for Somi to finish.
A girl group that boasts a huge fandom all over the world beyond Korea.
“Waaa!! Solar! Solar! Solar!”
“Nice to meet you guys!”
“Waaa!!!”
“…”
Solar members waited for Somi and greeted her fans.
Soon, the youngest slowly walking from school.
Somi spotted her sisters and smiled at her.
The last winter of my teens.
Thanks to her older sisters, she was able to forget the cold weather.
Soon after, she approached her sisters with the manager.
“Unnies, did you wait for me?”
“Of course.”
“Oh, it’s exciting.”
“Let’s get back to the van for now.”
“Yes!”
Fans started to surround me too much.
Even the people outside the school started to gather.
Soon, the managers broke through and took care of the Solar members.
A representative waiting in the van.
Suho looked at Somi and encouraged her.
“Good job. Drink this first.”
“What’s this?”
“Drink quickly.”
“?”
She drank the drink without thinking.
Somi spat it out into her cup.
“Oops, too bitter!”
“It’s high school.”
“…”
You should have given it earlier.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t follow you this morning.”
“It’s okay.”
“The test! How was it?”
“Oh, well…”
Somi stared at him with an embarrassed expression.
“Fail.”
“Ah.”
The members’ expressions hardened at the unexpected answer.
Because I believed in Somi’s ability that much.
The moment Yeji was encouraging her saying that it was okay.
“I took three.”
“Yes?”
“I really thought I memorized everything.”
“… Wait a minute.”
Soon, Yeji looked at the youngest and asked a question.
“Then what about the rest of the questions besides the three?”
“Well. Everything must have been correct.”
“…”
The members laughed at the smart girl’s confidence.
“Then isn’t it great?”
“At most three are wrong.”
“How many mistakes did the representative make?”
“…”
Jeong Su-ho also graduated from the Department of Business Administration at Korea University.
Of course he didn’t study for the college entrance exam to some extent.
“I had about 7. It was impossible.”
“Ah, no.”
“?”
Somi shook her hand and opened her mouth.
“CEO, the year of the CSAT is not impossible. About the third from the back.”
“How do you know?”
“I know because I solved it.”
“I wish I was smart.”
“Yes. Good. hehehe.”
He said sincerely.
“Let’s go back and have a light dinner.”
“Oh oh.”
Eunseo, who likes to drink, smiled at the story of the dinner party.
Belt-
Meanwhile, Somi got her unexpected call and doubted her eyes.
[Good work]
He’s the kind of person who never says things like that.
He wasn’t interested, no matter how good he was.
[CEO, you seem like a good person]
Somi raised her head and stared at her representative.
“CEO.”
“Yes?”
Melted by her mother’s warm words.
CEO was the best gift to Somi.
“I am an adult now.”
“Suddenly?”
“It’s just like that.”
“…”
Her eyes were full of mischief.
“What did you say you would do if you got first grade this year?”
“They said they would build an office building in the US. To expand the business…”
“No, not that.”
“Yes?”
Her youngest shrugged her shoulders and continued the conversation.
“You said you would grant me a wish!”
“Wouldn’t it be over if we built the office building!?”
“It’s a business.”
“…”
How can Solar be happy?
Would you like to stay with the CEO for a long time?
“I’ll think about it slowly.”
“Yes.”
Somi narrowed her eyebrows and seriously thought about it.
* * *
Sky Enter USA branch.
The mission was given to Rachel, the head of the PR team and the manager.
Isn’t she the American branch that only eats rice when she’s active in Korea?
“The CEO wants to build an office building.”
“You’re not buying another building?”
“You said you were building a new one.”
“…”
Now, you want to enter the US in earnest.
We also recruit trainees in the United States,
We also nurture local girl groups,
‘I can see…’
Now is the best time to expand your business.
Royal dignity and entertainment room.
Both works were global mega-hits.
On the surface, they say they are coming for Beyonce’s guest performance.
It seemed that CEO Jeong was trying to row when the water came in.
It’s like a person living the second round of life.
The insight to look into the future and the driving force to act without stopping.
It seems to have grown at least 10 times compared to when I first joined the US branch.
‘Therefore…’
You must be building a company building and trying to grow in size in the US.
Because the income earned by an entertainer at #1 on the Billboard charts is beyond imagination.
“I heard that the advance party is coming today.”
“Are you the starting team?”
“Producer Ailee.”
“Ah.”
Two-top producer of Sky Entertainment with Dohana.
She has fully demonstrated her skills with her grades.
After a while,
Producer Ailee arrived at the company on time.
She said, “I thought you were coming alone.”
“Oh, this is the camera director.”
“What are you filming?”
“It’s called The Solar, it’s a nutube variety show.”
“Okay.”
Even the filming team entered the country as a group.
You really did it right.
“Then I’m going to set up the filming equipment…”
“Yes. PD.”
The filming crew dispersed, and Ailee looked around.
The two of them remained alone and opened their mouths in heavy tones.
“Rachel, I heard about Capital Management.”
“Oh, that’s right. I’m in the middle of a lawsuit with the WAA.”
Like someone with a personal grudge.
She opened her mouth with roaring eyes.
“There is no leniency. I will never let it happen again.”
“…”
How sincere is this person to the Solar members?
All the staff at Sky Enter were very loyal to the company.
Unlike other fast-growing startups.
Well, I was trying to ruin Solar’s stage.
“Anyway.”
First of all, before the CEO comes, I need to find out about the office building.
It will take a while to build.
Because it’s a long-term project.
During the day, I’m loafing around at work,
At night, I’m in love with Yeji.
“It’s honey.”
Life tastes good these days.
It would be easier to date in America than in Korea.
It is a country with such a large land mass, so all you need is a car.
Beep, beep beep—
Today, Yeji came to my house first and was cooking.
“Yejiyah…? Joohee was there too?”
“?”
I put the coffee I was drinking down on the table and cleared my throat.
Joo-hee looked at me with a dumbbell in each hand.
“What is it?”
“What.”
She lowered her voice and spoke in a slightly serious tone.
Soon after, Juhee looked at me with a crooked gaze and crossed her arms.
“Has the mood just changed?”
“Me? Isn’t it?”
“It’s not that, the tone of his voice has changed.”
“It’s my mood.”
“…”
Bear-like Juhee’s eyes quickened.
The entertainment industry is so scary.
“Juhee, did you see the article about Somi’s college entrance exam?
“Are you talking back?”
“Okay, but why are you two together?”
“It’s just choreography creation.”
Yeji sat down at the table and joined the conversation.
“I was cooking!”
Two people who can create choreography.
Juhee and Yeji were exchanging opinions.
“You can’t skip Beyonce’s concert.”
“That’s right.”
An artist who is sincere in all performances and performances.
He was not a person who would be satisfied with a tolerable stage.
“Brother-, no, CEO!”
Then, Yeji brought her hand to the coffee I was drinking.
“Can I drink this?”
“Uh, yes.”
But why do you drink with the straw I used to eat?
You do it on purpose.
Do you want to tee off like that?
“Juhee, let’s go out.”
“With me!?”
“… No, with Yeji and me.”
“Aha.”
Juhee smiled and opened her mouth.
“Hmm, I did, I did.”
“What!?”
“It’s love.”
“Aha.”
What else did I do
“I kind of knew it.”
“Yes?”
It’s family, so I’m more sorry to hide it.
“We decided to have a secret relationship for the time being.”
“I know.”
Anyway, after a while, I will be active in the US.
At that time, I was thinking of opening it to people in the company.
“Juhee, I will see my family before I go to America.”
“My uncles?”
“Yes. I want to make my activities in the US a bit longer.”
“I know.”
Joo-hee asked me in a calm tone.
“CEO, Somi’s tension has gone up lately?”
“Yes?”
“Yes. You seem to be in a better mood than before the exam.”
“I’m glad.”
Somi, have you become a little more comfortable with her mother?
I can leave in peace thank god.
“There.”
Yeji looked at me and said.
“Me?”
“Yes?”
“When are you going to see my parents?”
“…”
Is that a case in point?
Or is it a home visit?
