I thought it would end like that
Yuna caught me.
“no way. I came all the way here, but I have to eat well. Right, sister?”
“that’s right. Earlier, I went shopping with Yuna to have a meal with the CEO.”
Thanks to Arin and Yuna for showing a fantastic combination.
I was able to leave the inn only after I ate until dinner.

Arin, Yuna, and Sia. Finally Jay-Z.
It’s been a long time since all four of us got together.
Up until now, each of our schedules were different, so we didn’t have time to get together separately.
There were so many things I couldn’t say in the meantime, the more we gathered, the more we talked nonstop.
As each person was added, the noise grew more and more.
“oh my god. Now Xia unni’s song reaction is no joke. saw?”
“I was also surprised.”
“why? I thought our Sia would hit the jackpot?”
“me too! And Jay-Z’s monthly Jay-Z songs were also at the top of the music charts?”
“It’s all because the CEO came up with a good plan.”
“that’s right! After all, our boss is the best.”
These stories continued until I appeared.
“Guys. Are you all here?”
“yes!”
“yes.”
“I’m here.”
From noble mtl dot com
Arin and Yuna are preparing for their 2nd regular album.
Jay-Z is active as Monthly Jay.
Even Sia, who is busy with her busy schedule with the successful comeback of her mini album.
The reason for calling all the kids who are currently busy with their schedules to the office was simple.
“I called because there is something I want to ask you about.”
“What is it?”
Before I can finish my words, Yuna raises her hand and asks.
“As you all know when you look at the communities. There is one thing people have been looking forward to from our company lately.”
“I know! Why doesn’t our boss hire trainees!”
“that’s right.”
At least, Sia and Jay-Z don’t look closely at the reactions posted on the Internet, so they don’t seem to know.
It wasn’t Arin and Yuna.
Before I could finish my words, I was terribly raising my hand and even explaining to Sia and Jay-Z who didn’t know me well.
“So now people’s attention is focused. The company has decided to start a long-term project.”
These are the kids who have been with me for a short but long time.
Even with the short words I just uttered, I knew what I was talking about right away.
“okay. We decided to select trainees.”
“It’s a junior, a junior!”
“and. I was wondering if one day I would be hired by my company. It’s faster than you think.”
“Since when?”
Certainly there are four of us, so the reaction is noisy.
“Right now, the company is preparing hard. As soon as the preparations are complete, we will announce the trainee selection audition.”
Up to this point, there was no reason to call this net to the company.
However, these four people are absolutely necessary for that trainee project in the future.
“So, there is one thing I want to ask of you.”
If I suggest that they do it, of course they will do it.
Even in the process of digesting a busy schedule, they are kids who will split their time and come running.
But rather than such a one-way communication, I wanted to hear the opinions of the kids.
From the beginning until now, it has been my decision to consider the opinions of the children first.
“What is it?”
When Arin asked as the representative, the eyes of the children turned to me.
“I want you to be a role model for the kids I’m going to pick this time. And it’s even better if I can act as a senior who mentors me from time to time.”
That was the reason I called Arin, Yuna, Sia, and even Jay-G to the company.
Being a senior who mentors the trainees.
“This is not something that simply needs a little bit of advice. You know the weekly WH?”
“yes.”
“of course.”
Because all of the kids right now have been communicating with fans through weekly WH broadcasts.
“We will show the growth of the new trainees with the new weekly WH.”
“ah.”
As my explanation continued a little longer, they nodded as if they understood correctly only then.
“Your CEO is saying that you should lead the trainees well while doing such broadcasts, right?”
“okay.”
This wasn’t just for newly recruited trainees.
People don’t know how much effort these kids put in to show off a stage.
I just have a genius talent, but I just think that I suddenly picked it up and succeeded.
So I’m going to show you this opportunity.
About how much effort these kids have made not to miss the opportunity they got.
And those courses would set a good example for the trainees.
and also.
It was also an opportunity to show the natural charms of the kids in a more friendly way to the fans.
There is no script like variety shows or broadcast programs.
It’s just that I’m trying to capture on camera the way I treat my younger juniors with a thoughtful mind.
Perhaps those images will be a little more friendly to the viewers.
“I like it!”
“I think I’m fine too.”
“me too.”
Seeing the kids nodding their heads without even worrying about a word, I naturally smile.
Because I felt how thick the trust towards me was.
“Then I know you all accepted. I will list four mentor teachers, so know that.”
“yes! Then shouldn’t we have a dinner party to commemorate becoming a mentor teacher?”
When Yuna said, the other three nodded as if agreeing.
this.
If only Yuna had shouted like that.
“I should go and practice for my second full-length album.”
I would have said
If all four of you agree, there’s nothing you can do about it.
“Then shall we go eat something delicious?”
They were the kids who nodded eagerly at my words.

An article like this was posted on a community used by young friends who dream of becoming idols.
[Do you know that there is a strange rumor going around these days?]
– Do you know which agency many aspiring idols want to go to?
The other day, I conducted an anonymous vote. Interestingly, WH Enter, which didn’t even have trainees, took first place.
But an entertainment reporter who is close to my uncle secretly spilled these words.
There are rumors that sooner or later, WH will not select trainees.
Could it be real?
└ Wouldn’t it be Khadra? I’ve never picked a trainee from WH before.
└ No, I heard similar rumors. You know the WH choreography team, right? A close teacher secretly asked a friend who went to class there if he had any thoughts.
└ Is WH really starting to pick and raise trainees? Then how much will the competition be?
└ Maybe… Wouldn’t the competition rate be as high as the audition programs at the broadcasting station?
It started there.
Rumors began to spread that sooner or later WH would select trainees by those who were interested.
Seeing such reactions, I asked Park Il-do.
“Are you ready?”
“It’s done. More than that, our representative is really great. There are many times when I see admiration from the side.”
Park Il-do bursts into exclamation and checks the final schedule once again on the tablet.
There is no way rumors will spread that suddenly WH is preparing for an audition to select trainees.
It’s all just made to spread awareness through those who are close to each other.
“There will probably be a lot of people coming.”
“I guess so. I made a prediction internally, but there was also an opinion that it might be more crowded than the audition program.”
“Maybe. The staff made a notice, but as you know, it will take some time until the end.”
“We talked a little about that at the team leader meeting. Regardless of the department, I will help out as much as possible.”
“Good job.”
Ability is also important.
Above all, the most important thing I value when hiring employees is character.
You shouldn’t bring a loach that will cloud the gloomy atmosphere.
Thanks to this, it was taking time to recruit manpower due to various confirmation procedures.
“Long-term races, be careful not to tire the staff.”
“okay. I will lead the team well.”
Unlike many other auditions, our trainee selection audition had a long schedule.
Above all, after confirming the most important talent, I had to go through the process of confirming that the child had a proper personality.
It was a long audition that took a month from the first interview to the final announcement of the selection audition.
“Then let’s begin.”
while working on this long-term project.
Actually, I thought that something cool would come out.
Of course, it’s a picture I’m only drawing roughly in my head right now.
Will it be finished soon?

The day of WH Enter’s first trainee selection audition has dawned.
It was the audition site for WH Entertainment, which had even rented a separate venue due to the huge number of applications.
“How many applicants?”
“They say they can’t finish it even if they don’t rest until tomorrow.”
“There was a huge crowd of people.”
“It’s WH, like no other place. Even if I was an aspiring student, I think I would apply to WH rather than any other place. First of all, the results shown are amazing.”
A reporter from the entertainment department looked at the young friends huddled together to prepare for the audition and threw out a word.
“So how many people are you picking this time?”
＜ Episode 143 ＞ End
＜ Episode 144 ＞
The trainees this time decided to select really young ones.
If I was going to debut right away with about a year of practice, I would have found it myself instead of having to go through such a cumbersome method.
That’s why I thought that no matter how many friends were interested, there would be a limit.
Literally, the application came in bursting.
“oh my god! Boss. I heard there were a lot of applicants?”
“okay. Where else did you hear that?”
That’s before the article goes out.
“Of course I heard from the staff outside. It’s not even crazy that I’m busy right now. I don’t think we can even have lunch together.”
“Do you want to come along too?”
I didn’t even need to hear the answer.
I saw Yuna, who turned her head slightly and pretended not to hear.
“Arin unnie fell asleep early in the morning yesterday and left it behind.”
“good job. Yuna, you and Arin have something to help with, so I called them.”
“What is it?”
I’m not calling the staff to help with what they need to do.
That kind of thing will take a little time, but it’s because the staff are capable enough to handle it.
“Yuna, I want you to interview the audition applicants.”
What I wanted to ask Arin and Yuna was an interview with the applicants.
To start the weekly WH, which contains the trainees’ growth process, from the audition.
“Just ask a few simple questions.”
I thought a better picture would come out if the mentoring senior interviewed the applicants.
Sia and Jay-Z are busy with their activities right now, so I called Arin and Yuna, who are a bit loose.
“If that’s the chief’s request! Listening is normal! Instead, there are conditions.”
condition?
Yuna’s words that followed were enough to make me laugh out loud.
“Eat lunch together. Everyone outside seems too busy. Because Arin and unnie will have to sleep more before waking up.”
“okay. Let’s go eat something delicious.”
“yes!”
That’s how Arin and Yuna were in charge of interviewing the applicants.

Han Na-young was currently waiting for an audition to select trainees for WH.
To be precise, with Hannah’s best friend, Seoyoung.
“Nayoung. I am trembling.”
“You can do well. So let’s just do it like we practiced. From what I see, you can become unconditional.”
Han Na-young’s dream was not to become an idol singer.
My dream since childhood was to become an actor.
I dreamed of becoming an actor after falling in love with the way I became a different person on the screen and stirred the emotions of the audience.
The reason Han Na-young, who had such a dream of becoming an actress, decided to audition ahead of time was simple.
It was because of Hannah’s best friend, Seoyoung.
“I heard that WH is holding an audition to select trainees. i’m so nervous Nayoung, can you help me?”
“how?”
“We go to karaoke often together. Please go to the audition hall together. When I saw the announcement for the audition, they said I could apply with a friend. huh?”
I had no choice but to prepare together at the words of Seoyoung, who thought of me as another family.
Unlike other agency auditions, it was Han Na-young who felt that it was fresh to be able to prepare with close people.
I was just a little worried.
It was because, unlike Seoyoung, who had been practicing steadily, Hannah herself did it when the two of them were playing or occasionally.
“Is it okay if I come in with you? Compared to you, Seoyoung, I am worried that I will look bad because I am so bad.”
“don’t worry! I’m relieved just by being by your side. Everything is fine with that.”
Even from Hannah’s point of view, Seoyoung was a born idol.
From looks to singing and dancing.
In fact, I thought that it would be okay to enter the top 5 agencies rather than WH Enter, so I asked before coming to the audition.
“Seo Young-ah. Wouldn’t one of the five major agencies be better? WH was a place that hadn’t been around in a while.”
Traditionally, idols produced by the five major agencies have a high probability of success.
That’s why Han Na-young also said that she wanted her friend to go to a large agency rather than a small agency.
However, Seoyoung reacted to Hannah’s words by asking what she meant.
“It used to be like that. But now WH Enter is the best. Even though we have never created an idol group yet, everyone thinks so.”
“Why? I think everyone is too enthusiastic about WH Enter without results.”
“No, No. Starting with CEO Choi Woo-hyuk, to Ringo, a star composer, and Director Cheian, who created a lot of choreography for hit songs. There are combinations that simply cannot fail.”
At Seoyoung’s words, it was Han Nayoung who searched WH Enter in detail only then.
I just vaguely thought it was a place where recently rising celebrities belonged.
After seeing the search results, Hannah could only nod her head.
CEO Choi Woo-hyeok, who writes a success story as Seoyoung said, Ringo, a hit song maker, and Cheian, who created the choreography for several hit songs.
Han Na-young, who saw the informational text comparing with other agencies, could understand why her friend hanged herself at WH Enter.
This is because it was the same situation as the so-called CSAT star instructors gathered in one place.
Those who dream of a successful debut like a 1st grader will inevitably flock to it.
“Did you memorize all the lyrics?”
“of course. I called several times before coming today. you?”
“me too.”
As they waited for their turn, Hannah and Seoyoung chatted to relax.
