I Became a Producer Who Rewrites Idols

137 – Musical Casting (1)

“Congratulations, you have successfully quit smoking. “You can just keep it like this.”

“Thank you.”

Afternoon Sweets member Jo Min-ju stopped by the smoking cessation clinic located within the public health center.

A urine test showed that there was no nicotine in the body.

I received a blood pressure monitor from the public health center as a gift for successfully quitting smoking.

When I took the elevator down to the first floor of the public health center, Afternoon Sweets member Gu Ga-eun was waiting.

When Koo Ga-eun saw Jo Min-joo coming out of her elevator, she smiled brightly and ran towards him at once.

“What are you saying… ?”

Jo Min-ju answered, giving Gu Ga-eun the box of her blood pressure monitor in her hand.

“Smoking cessation was successful.”

“Wow!”

Goo Ga-eun jumped up and hugged her Jo Min-joo tightly.

Gu Ga-eun is happy about it as if it were her own, even though it is not her own.

Jo Min-ju just hugged her with gratitude.

“They say you become a toxic person if you quit smoking, but Minjoo is also a toxic person… ?”

“Yes, I am a strong woman.”

Where on earth did he hear that? Jo Min-joo chuckled.

Goo Ga-eun released her arm from Jo Min-joo and looked around at her blood pressure monitor box.

It was a small home blood pressure monitor that ran on batteries.

“But who wrote this… ?”

“Do you have high blood pressure or low blood pressure?”

“Nothing…” ! They say I’m perfectly healthy… !!”

Jo Min-ju also had no special health problems.

She was worried because the number of years she had smoked was not that short for her age, but she was fortunate.

“Then should I give it to you? “Neither of us will use it anyway.”

“To the producer… ? Yeah, then… !! Producer, at your age, you need to take care of your health… !!”

“Yonsei, I will cry when I hear you.”

Producer Lim Boo-gil is still in his early 30s.

I’m getting to the age where I need to take care of my health, but I’m not old.

I need a few more years to become middle-aged.

If you listen to the story of producer Im Boo-gil and Yeom Seon-jeong, who kept Jindo until the end,

He looked healthier than expected.

… It was Jo Min-joo who wanted to quickly break out of her minor years and experience the same thing as her.

“Oh, aren’t these afternoon sweets?”

“That’s right, that’s right!!”

At that time, female students walking around the first floor of the public health center recognized Jo Min-joo and Gu Ga-eun.

On my way home from school, I stopped by the public health center in my school uniform and was caught sooner than expected.

Both of them found it fascinating that more and more people were noticing them on the streets as the days passed.

“Dear Democratic sister! “I’m enjoying your vlog!!”

“Ga-eun, too!”

“Thank you.” “Thank you… !”

At first, it started with female students, but gradually male students and even older ladies gathered around the Afternoon Sweets members.

I never thought about it, but the two sincerely answered questions, signed autographs, and took pictures.

I was told by Producer Lim Boo-gil that it is at times like this that you can increase your intimacy with your fans, so you should respond sincerely.

It is said that improving the idol’s image is a great help, as he is very kind and good-natured even in private.

After the incident continued for over 30 minutes on the first floor of the public health center, a security guard intervened.

“I’m sorry, you need to get permission in advance…” .”

“Oh, I’m sorry.” “I’m sorry… !!”

After apologizing to the security guard as politely as possible, Jo Min-joo and Koo Ga-eun left the public health center.

Fans also reacted as the two had intended, saying that it was unfortunate but that there was nothing they could do.

Producer Jeon Geun-young was standing in front of the public health center entrance.

It seemed like they had already figured out the situation, but it seemed like they just watched from afar, following producer Lim Boo-gil’s policy.

Producer Jeon Geun-young said after looking at the blood pressure monitor on Koo Ga-eun’s hand.

“It was difficult, right?”

Jo Min-ju smiled and answered lightly.

“No, they are all people who like us.”

“Oh, by the way, cigarettes. “I don’t know much because I don’t smoke, but I heard it’s very painful. I need to quit smoking.”

“Ah…. Well, I became an idol to quit smoking.”

Producer Jeon Geun-young laughed at Jo Min-joo’s words.

“Minju is probably the only person who became an idol to quit smoking.”

As I spoke, I opened the door of the van used by afternoon Sweets members.

As soon as Jo Min-joo and Koo Ga-eun got on, producer Jeon Geun-young went to the driver’s seat and grabbed the steering wheel.

The Lucky Seven Entertainment lodging where Sweets stayed in the afternoon was not far from the public health center.

15 Minutes by car.

… It doubles when it’s time to get off work.

And now it was time to get off work.

Koo Ga-eun asked while looking into the eyes of producer Jeon Geun-young reflected in her room mirror.

“How is your newlywed life?” ?”

Jo Min-ju stopped Gu Ga-eun by tapping her shoulder with her elbow.

“It’s not a question like that.”

“Okay… ?”

Producer Jeon Geun-young smiled and said, “It’s okay, it’s okay.” He said.

“I’m just happy.”

“Okay… ?”

“Of course, there are days when we fight. “It’s a little bit trivial, though.”

“What do we fight with?” ?”

“It’s really trivial. For example, my brother didn’t put down the toilet cover after urinating, so I almost fell into the toilet while I was sleeping.”

It’s really trivial, Jo Min-ju laughed to herself.

Looking at producer Jeon Geun-young’s gentle expression, it seemed like she was really happy.

Producer Jeon Geun-young answered honestly and without any signs of fatigue despite Goo Ga-eun’s continued questions.

After arriving at the dorm, Producer Jeon Geun-young said good night and was about to leave work.

Jo Min-joo stopped her in front of her front door, saying, “Wait a minute.”

“Why?”

“Mr., Will it still be some time before you come back to Korea?”

Yellow Cow’s dating rumors have almost completely subsided.

Instead, a conflict emerged between Higoto Shimbun, Kokoro Music, and the band.

In that case, wouldn’t it be time for producer Lim Boo-gil to come back, Jo Min-ju thought.

“I heard you would be back soon, but I didn’t hear the exact details.”

“Okay….”

Seeing Jo Min-joo looking a little sullen, producer Jeon Geun-young raised the corner of her mouth.

“After all, it’s painful not to be able to see the face of the person you like, right?”

“Yes? Oh, no, that’s….”

Jo Min-joo, who is usually mature, blushed in a way appropriate for her age when talking about this topic.

Producer Jeon Geun-young was someone who I found cute, but also felt a bit bitter about.

Producer Jeon Geun-young also had some understanding of Producer Lim Boo-gil’s complicated relationships with women.

At least she knew it wasn’t at the level of a lamb’s leg.

No matter how many women rushed to date him first, I thought he was a bad guy because he didn’t choose just one person.

But it is true that being such a bad guy helped producer Lim Boo-gil’s career to a great extent.

I do exactly what the person I like tells me to do, almost without any doubt.

The reason why producer Jeon Geun-young has been trusted by female idols, including Jo Min-ju, is because she is a trusted subordinate of producer Lim Boo-gil.

“I think Minjoo is really great.”

“Me?”

“I don’t think I can bear it if my brother cheats on me with another woman.”

Jo Min-ju smiled faintly.

“Honestly, I’m not really happy that you’re hanging out with another woman. “Sometimes it’s a little difficult.”

“… Is it so?”

“To put it bluntly, you can live alone well even if you break up with producer Cho Hyun-ho, but I will never be able to live well if I break up with you.”

The person who saved Jo Min-joo from his miserable home environment was clearly producer Im Bu-gil.

Even if he were like me, I would have liked him in that situation, thought producer Jeon Geun-young.

But….

“It may have been like that before, but now I have saved money and am doing well as an idol.”

“No, I can’t. “I had no intention of becoming an idol, but you scouted me and I became an idol.”

“That was it.”

“Even if I break up with my uncle, I will still think of him every time I promote as an idol, and that will be more difficult to bear. In that case, it’s easier to like him together with Seon Seon.”

Producer Jeon Geun-young also knew that everyone has different values, and that includes dating.

Still, I still couldn’t fully understand Jo Min-joo’s feelings.

No, even if I understood it intellectually, I couldn’t empathize with it.

“As soon as I hear the news that the vice president is coming to Korea, I’ll call you right away.”

“Yes, thank you.”

Producer Jeon Geun-young closed the front door and pressed the elevator button.

And he thought.

He said he was very fortunate that his husband was not as popular as producer Lim Boo-gil.

*

Gu Ga-eun accidentally overhears the conversation between Jo Min-joo and producer Jeon Geun-young at the entrance.

I thought as I lay down on the bed.

About producer Lim Boo-gil.

Whether or not Producer Imbu Gil was a good person, he was definitely a good person.

His father’s constant worries disappeared, and he soon made many friends at school.

When I saw the money accumulating in my bank account, I felt a sense of accomplishment, thinking that this was really money I had earned through my work.

‘Somehow I feel like I’m the only one going crazy these days…’ .’

It became even more so after I started living in a dorm with Yeom Seon-jeong.

Of course she was a good person too.

She didn’t listen to her dislike at all.

However, when the topic of producer Lim Boo-gil was brought up, Gu Ga-eun naturally walked away from the conversation.

Only Jo Min-joo and Yeom Seon-jeong continued to talk about him.

I didn’t even understand what the conversation was specifically about.

‘I can’t tell you not to talk about Producer Lim Boo-gil….’

Even Koo Ga-eun, who is not usually very perceptive, knew that Jo Min-joo and Yeom Seon-jeong loved producer Im Bu-gil.

While I think it’s fortunate that we don’t fight like the love triangle in the drama,

I often thought that Jo Min-ju seemed to be closer to Yeom Seon-jeong than to herself, who was also a fellow member.

Jo Min-joo’s attitude did not change.

He sometimes made fun of her, but he was always considerate of her.

But what is this feeling she feels in her heart?

‘I’ll have to consult with producer Jeon Geun-young tomorrow.’

I felt like it would hinder my idol activities if I continued like this.

I also heard from Producer Lim Boo-gil that discord among members would have a significant impact on the group, so they should be considerate of each other.

Gu Ga-eun’s eyes slowly closed.

And after 10 seconds she fell asleep.

The next morning.

To the loud sound of her smartphone, Koo Ga-eun stretched her legs.

She thought it was the sound of an alarm going off all the time.

After she finished stretching, she placed her smartphone in her hand.

But it wasn’t an alarm sound, it was a phone ringing sound.

From producer Jeon Geun-young.

“Yes, I am a producer….”

I was thirsty because it was morning.

She cleared her throat a little.

-Sorry for being early in the morning, Ga-eun.

“It’s okay…” . What’s going on… ?”

-Nothing else, do you have any plans to do a musical?

“Yes… ? It’s a musical… ?”

Koo Ga-eun’s eyes widened at producer Jeon Geun-young’s completely unexpected words.
