“Let’s scrap the plan.”
“What?!”
The manager jumped up at my words when I came back. It seemed like having a good reaction would be useful later when we had audiences.
What was the manager’s name? I gave up trying to remember his name and turned my head toward him, focusing on future broadcasts.
“Let’s do it again. I can’t sing this song.”
“Hold on, are you out of your mind? Why the sudden change? You just got here!”
“Manager, please reconsider. Can we really succeed with this?”
“Well… of course!”
He seemed to be very confident.
Yum-yum-yum like an apple!
I looked at the hesitant manager with pity. I regretted my earlier comment about the audience. If the manager had been one of my subordinates, I would have terminated his employment without hesitation.
He couldn’t do his job because he kept pushing ahead without knowing what was happening.
“I’m not sure about you, but I can’t be sure. So, let’s scrap it.”
“Are you kidding me?”
Kim Seonghyeon, silently listening, suddenly got up and put his hand on my shoulder. It was a common occurrence, but it didn’t mean I liked it.
“What’s the big deal coming in here suddenly like this? Are you trying to sabotage us?”
“Why?”
“What do you mean why?’ We’ve already discussed everything without you. If you just came in, keep quiet. Don’t ruin our plans.”
Kim Seonghyeon had a bold personality.
Being threatened wasn’t good, but having a determined person on our team was valuable. I glanced at Kim Seonghyeon.
“Have you listened to the top 40 songs on the music charts?”
“What?”
“No, let’s just do any song on the charts. Making it onto the charts is no easy feat, after all. Have you listened to any of them?”
“What nonsense is this?”
I looked at Kim Seonghyeon, who still didn’t understand the situation. Even though he was still angry, Kim Seonghyeon’s young face showed defiance.
“Trends change every day, and there’s an overflow. Now we need to expand beyond just South Korea and into other countries. But to do that, the big agencies have to spend a ton of money to bring in songs from the US or UK.”
“…”
“Or, we could get it from a talented composer here in South Korea.”
“What’s the point, then?”
He’s so impatient. I bit my tongue.
“You really think our music is in there? Can this silly pineapple song even make it to the charts?”
Kim Seonghyeon was speechless.
“This is just a waste of time and money.”
I grabbed Kim Seonghyeon’s hand and moved it away.
Everyone had gloomy expressions and looked down at the ground. We had to face reality.
As the CEO mentioned, being an idol was more expensive than most people realize. The makeup, hair, wardrobe, and personnel costs for a single music broadcast were exorbitant. Even if they were popular idols, it was still the same.
