107 – Public Audition (2)
[Name: Setsuna Nagano]
[Fatigue: 82]
[Vocal (C): 62 → 63 / Dance (S): 48 → 61 / Talking (C): 56 / Visual (A): 49 → 55]
[Current thought: As expected, I have no talent, so I must have been forced to take on the role…….]
Abilities were growing smoothly as intended.
Anyway, it looks like [Idol Aptitude Display], Which is the reward for [Debuting 5 Idol Groups Achievement], Appears like that.
As expected in the ‘idol producing’ game, Setsuna was an idol specializing in dance.
“What are you worried about? Aside from being a producer, I’m just worried about Setsuna as a person. “Please be honest.”
I tried to comfort Setsuna as much as possible so that she would not be burdened.
Then her eyes changed little by little, and she opened her mouth.
“I saw Rin-chan debut….”
“Yes.”
I was able to guess the cause of this escape right away.
Because of her Yellow Cow debut, I felt a great sense of her lack of qualifications.
… But the eldest of the quintuplets—Hwang So-rin is called Lin-chan?
Should I say that this place feels strangely Japanese?
“Korean idols seem to have to be good at vocals to be popular, but if you record and listen to my vocals, it’s not good…. “The producer doesn’t give me vocal lessons because he thinks my vocals aren’t that good, right?”
“Ah… ….”
Because Yellow Cow is a band idol, the focus is on vocals and visuals rather than other abilities.
Of course, compared to those girls, Setsuna’s vocals can’t be said to be very good.
Since her vocal aptitude was C in the first place, Setsuna can say that she has no vocal talent.
“Listen carefully, Setsuna. “When I looked at Setsuna’s portfolio, I found that Setsuna was having a hard time with her vocals.”
“…… “I see.”
Setsuna’s expression looks like she’s going to cry at any moment.
But that’s a lie, I couldn’t give you hope just because you have great vocal talent.
One of the virtues of an idol, or perhaps a necessary element for most people, is self-objectification.
It is about understanding her own strengths and weaknesses.
“But Setsuna, does she have to be good at vocals to become an idol?”
“Yes… ?”
“You know Mr. Shion from Cursed Dolls, right?”
“Oh, I know! Shion-chan! “She’s very pretty and dances really well!”
“Yes, to be honest, I can’t say that a song is good even with empty words. Still, it was successful.”
Setsuna said, tilting her head.
As if I were saying something strange.
“When I auditioned before, the judge there told me to focus on vocals because I had no talent for dancing….”
“… ….”
Who is this person who said such nonsense?
No, if you think about it, it was possible.
In the case of Setsuna, her initial ability level was higher for vocals, so newbies were confused.
There was always a question posted on the cafe asking, “Setsuna, why aren’t her vocals uploaded??”, And people like me left comments saying, “Setsuna specializes in dance..”
She never dreamed that Setsuna himself would be doing it.
“Setsuna, like Shion, is an idol with an aptitude for dancing.”
“Yes… ? Really… ?”
[Name: Setsuna Nagano]
[Current Thoughts: I don’t know which one is true because the judge’s words are completely different….]
The audition that Setsuna was talking about was probably an audition for a fairly large idol group.
Since it was what the judge there said, it was difficult for her to say not to worry about it.
“Setsuna, think carefully. She’s a former producer, not a volunteer. “If Setsuna really has no potential as an idol, should I invest in her?”
“Investment… ?”
“Right now, Setsuna’s accommodation, lessons, it’s all about money. I am investing in Setsuna because I think she will succeed as a dance idol. “If she succeeds, not only will she recoup her investment, but she will also make a much bigger profit.”
[Name: Setsuna Nagano]
[Current thought: Can I really be like that…? ?]
Setsuna lifted her head and stared at me.
Fortunately, she seemed to be regaining her strength little by little.
… I know this is my personality, but mental care was really tough.
“Would you like to dance here sometime? “With what I’ve learned so far.”
“W-here?!”
“If she actually becomes an idol, she will have to dance in places with a lot more people than here.”
When Jeongsong noticed her secretary, she took out a wireless speaker that connected to her smartphone.
I immediately picked up my smartphone and played some club music.
Thump-thump-thump-thump-thump, echoed in Horse Chestnut Park.
Although Setsuna hesitated, she soon got up from her bench and started to get into her rhythm.
She still has a dance ability of 61, so of course she is a member of Curse De Dolls — it was disappointing compared to Gongsi On,
He is much better than most ordinary people.
“Oh, you dance well.”
“Are you an aspiring celebrity?”
One by one, the couples at Horse Chestnut Park looked at Setsuna.
Since she already had experience as an underground idol, she didn’t mind the gathering of people like this.
The clothes are ordinary everyday clothes, there are no proper speakers, and it is just the floor of the park, not on the stage.
Since she caught people’s attention, she had to be considered talented enough to be an idol.
After she finished her impromptu performance of about 10 minutes, people applauded.
Her clothes were wet with sweat as she danced vigorously in the early summer weather of July, but she still kept her smile.
“Well done.”
Jeongsong gave Setsuna the cool water she had bought from her secretary.
Then she grinned and emptied all of her 500mL bottled water in the blink of an eye.
“Thank you, producer… !”
[Name: Setsuna Nagano]
[Fatigue: 43]
From noble mtl dot com
[Current Thoughts: Why did I doubt Producer Lim?]
Setsuna bent her waist at a right angle.
Now that her fatigue has dropped from 82 to this much, I also breathed a sigh of relief.
She really made my heart flutter even more than a roller coaster….
Is this a fatal woman?
*
After dropping Setsuna back at her dorm, she thought about going straight back to Japan, but she decided to just take her time and catch a flight tomorrow.
Time is ambiguous.
Just today, for the first time in a while, I took care of the remaining work at GI Productions’ Korean headquarters office.
Unlike the Japanese branch office, I had my own space called the vice president’s office, so it was convenient.
It is a structure that is never visible from the outside to the inside.
… Coincidentally, I was mentally tired thanks to Setsuna.
“Song.”
“Yes?”
Secretary Jeong Song-i, who was tapping on the computer keyboard in front of me, immediately turned her head and responded to my call.
It felt good for some reason, as if a well-trained puppy came right away wagging its tail when its name was called.
“Come to work.”
I pointed under my desk.
Then Secretary Jeong Song-i’s eyes widened, and she quickly burst into laughter.
“When I said he would do it before, he refused.”
“That was then and now is now.”
“Can I do it with your mouth?”
“Uh.”
I crouched under the desk, felt Secretary Jeong Song’s tongue flicking, and started the groupware.
When I looked down from the computer screen, I met her eyes.
… Good, this play.
When you get the thrill of doing something like this in the office,
Tiriring—.
The landline phone rang loudly.
“Yes, this is Lim Boo-gil, Vice President of GI Production.”
-This is KCBC’s entertainment headquarters.
“Oh yes, hello. “What’s going on?”
Now that I’m at the vice president level, people don’t call me directly about anything.
-This time, we and NP TV have jointly planned an audition program.
“Oh, really?”
It’s a joint audition between Korea and Japan.
Are you saying we should also send out trainees?
No, in that case, they would have contacted Lucky Seven Entertainment or Jeil Entertainment, not GI Production.
Because we don’t have any trainees.
… Can we consider Setsuna to be our trainee?
-After the Vice President evaluates the idol aspiring idols, you need to select only a few to produce.
“Yes? “Are you saying I should be a judge?”
-They are not just judges, but the vice president takes the lead in selecting them.
I heard an explanation about the audition program in detail.
There were many things, but among them, the part about saving GZW52 stood out.
GZW52 was eventually disbanded due to the ‘NP TV’ s*xual entertainment incident, so they were given a chance to make a comeback through an audition program.
The intention was really obvious.
‘KCBC’, my intention is to make money by taking advantage of my popularity in Korea.
It seemed like ‘NP TV’ was planning to improve its image by condescending to the idols who had suffered great damage because of them.
“I understand. “I will participate as a producer.”
-Yes, thank you! We will send you a detailed proposal by email.
Honestly, it would have been okay to just refuse….
For me, it was also an opportunity to test my abilities.
In the meantime, we thoroughly searched for and produced characters that appeared in the ‘idol producing’ game.
This time, we produce about an idol that has never been seen even in a game.
I thought I could make full use of the status window function called [Idol Aptitude Display].
… If they participate in idol auditions, they must be willing to become idols.
“It was a good meal, producer… ♡”
Secretary Jeong Song-i swallows it like it’s natural even though I didn’t ask her to.
She was so pretty and amazing that I bit her face and head with both hands and stroked her vagina.
When she felt my touch and saw her bright, happy face, I thought again that there is no such nice woman.
“But what kind of call was it?”
“He wants me to do an audition program.”
“Yes?”
I relayed exactly what I heard from the ‘KCBC’ representative to secretary Jeong Song-i.
She nodded and listened, then suddenly said something.
“Now, producer, you can debut as an idol.”
“… ….”
It was terrible just to imagine.
