First fan meeting (1)
“Are you insane?”
After hearing the story of the fan meeting, Jeong Su-ryun nodded her head in disbelief.
“You’re just going to tell all the fans who want to come? And what? You want to do it for free?”
“Can’t you?”
“Of course not.”
Jeong Su-ryun took a deep breath and spoke quickly as if firing a submachine gun.
“Are you going to rent Jamsil Stadium? Since the fan meeting is free, can you imagine how many people would come if we told everyone who wanted to come? Do you know why museums charge a small fee? The free museum is crowded with kindergarten and elementary, middle and high school tours, so general visitors cannot fully enjoy it.”
“It’s strange that fans pay money for something.”
“Think of it as selling goods. You wrap up your day-to-day time and sell it to your fans. Fans pay to buy one-off goods that experience.”
“Hmm… … .”
“You get tickets for concerts too, don’t you? It’s like that.”
“Once I get it.”
“And receiving money is a courtesy to the steamed fans. Otherwise, the steam fans would have to fight even with the gossipers. Even if we only fight with our big fans, it’s already enough to explode.”
“That is a fresh perspective. amazing. Aren’t you like your sister?”
“… … Anyway, think of it as a paid performance and proceed. The fans are comfortable with that too.”
My mother, who was listening by the side, asked curiously.
“Then, how much can our Seohun fan meeting tickets cost?”
“That’s what he likes.”
“Still, isn’t there such a thing as market price?”
“Even if you call for 500,000 won, it seems like the reservation rate will go down, but if you do that, other people will scold you. It is said that it has risen significantly. Do you think it would be suitable for less than 100,000 won?”
“The place? Are you really going to rent Jamsil Stadium?”
“Mom too. He’s not even a singer, so what kind of Jamsil Stadium are you renting?”
“What else is there that our Seohunie can’t sing? The OST is also the original singer, but you just pressed it so you couldn’t hear it.”
“Can I say that as a Baek Hyo-sun fan?”
“The blood is thicker. this.”
Jeong Su-ryun scratched her head.
“I think it would be appropriate if it was just a size of about hundreds of seats. Borrow something like a suitable outdoor auditorium.”
“Then there is a suitable place. It can accommodate about 200 people.”
“Where is it?”
“Our school’s engineering college wedding hall.”
Jeong Su-ryun hurriedly searched on her phone and spoke again.
“But this place was originally used as an auditorium, right? You look a little plain?”
“He is. Our Seohunie is a student at Korea University, so where do you hold fan meetings after leaving school? Aren’t the fans curious about what Seo-hoon’s school is like?”
“It’s pretty good here.”
Jeong Su-ryun did not present any more disagreement and concentrated on planning the schedule.
“It’s too complicated to do all of these things one by one. It is better to entrust it to an experienced company on a turnkey basis. I’ll have to pay a fee, but I’m paying for the ticket anyway.”
“I don’t know of such a company.”
“I will do it. What are you going to do for me instead?”
My mother slapped my sister on the back.
“If you want Seo Hoon to appear as a producer later, even if you look good from now on, it won’t be enough. Jeong Su-ryeon, just charge for the labor cost and proceed!”
* * *
Jeong Su-ryun selected a company with a lot of experience in hosting fan meetings, and Jeong Seo-hoon officially signed a contract.
“Please make sure to go through a clear identity verification so that scalpers cannot circulate.”
“Having prices skyrocket as some scalpers are traded helps marketing. We can raise the name value of actor Jeong Seo-hoon.”
“It is more important that the fans do not suffer unnecessary suffering.”
“If that’s the case, then I know. We will go through a clear identity guarantee from the reservation stage, and we will check it when entering.”
Even if you go through mobile phone authentication on site when entering, you can prevent illegal ticketing.
“I think 110,000 won for offline seating and 39,000 won for online streaming would be appropriate.”
The company created a website for the fan meeting, wrote a notice and posted it. The promotion ended with announcing the news to the non-rap community.
As soon as the company posted the news, the entire B-Lab fandom was excited.
-I’ve been waiting for this day! I’m going to see our bachelor Jonan!
– Grand Prince Mama, So-cheop will definitely go to meet you ㅠㅠㅠ
-If the off-seat is 110,000 won, is it too hyeja? That way, the competition will be more fierce.
-It would be nice if you could just give me 1 million won each. There are only 200 seats.
-Hey, they say they check it on the spot with the cell phone number you verified when you booked this. The resellers are out hahahaha
-You’re a kind scholar ㅠㅠ This is how we tell our scalpers not to get ripped off ㅠㅠ
-It’s a common practice at the bottom of the world to quietly neglect the soaring price of scalping tickets, saying it’s helpful for brand promotion, but they reject it like a knife.
-When the reservation starts, you should keep your eyes open and watch it hehehe
-Looking at the competition rate for off-seats, I think it will go over hundreds of thousands to one, but I just want to give up and comfortably participate online.

Oh So-hee was anxiously waiting for the fan meeting ticket reservation to open.
“5, 4, 3, 2, 1, open!”
As soon as the reservation started while refreshing, I pressed it like lightning… … .
“Oh, f*ck! I pressed it as soon as it opened, but what kind of waiting is over 80,000 times! Telecommunications bastards! That’s why I didn’t use the Internet for things like stealing satellites!”
There are only 200 offline seats, but the waiting number is around 80,000? It is the will of fate to just give up cleanly and buy online streaming tickets.
“Ugh it’s frustrating. Maybe I should buy an online ticket.”
After grumbling and purchasing an online ticket, I called my friend Kim Da-hye.
As soon as I heard a voice full of gloom, I knew the situation of my friend.
“How many times?”
-70,000 units.
“Still, you beat me. I am in the 80,000th generation.”
-70,000 or 80,000. Acorn Kijaeji.
“Come over to my house on the day of the fan meeting. Let’s watch together.”
If you’re going to watch together, you don’t need to buy tickets separately, but sharing like that is a sin for steam fans. There will be no cancellation of online ticketing by either party.
“Damn it. I don’t know who they are, but I envy the lucky 200 people, I envy them!”

“Senior, have you booked Yoo Jung-ah’s fan meeting?”
Oh Tae-woo looked like he was making a reservation on a computer, so a junior asked.
Oh Tae-woo, who slightly turned his head, spoke indifferently.
“Jeong Seo-hoon fan meeting.”
“Oh, that friend? That’s right, senior said you were a fan of that friend.”
“I am not a fan.”
“I’ve seen all of that friend’s works too, kya. It was really emotional acting, as if you pulled out the soul of a murderer from somewhere and possessed it. Usually, the acting of a murderer is over-emotional and far from reality, which makes active actors like us cringe, but Lee Jin-wook was a real murderer himself. You deserve to be a fan of seniors.”
“So I am not a fan.”
“Then why did you book the fan meeting?”
“Yoo Jung-ah could come as a guest. No, it will definitely come. It’s a detective’s intuition.”
The junior applauded the seal with a loud gesture as if he knew it only then.
“Anyway, our Oh Tae-woo sunbaenim’s love for Jung-ah should be acknowledged. But did you succeed?”
“uh. Didn’t the waiting number come up right away? I guess this guy isn’t as popular as I thought.”
“It can’t be. It’s really hot these days.”
“Then it must be that the company was negligent in publicity, or that the fandom didn’t have enough firepower, or something like that.”
“Ah, maybe it’s thanks to the jjambab that I booked for my senior’s fan meeting? Yoo Jung-ah’s fan meeting was a success, right?”
“Even if I don’t do well in the lottery, the success of ticketing reservations is astonishing.”
“What’s the secret?”
“Optimization of internet lines and computer browsers, and physical fingers. This should be it. by the way.”
Oh Tae-woo muttered quietly.
“Yoo Jung-ah must come as a guest… … .”

On the day of the fan meeting.
Yu-ri Kim, a high school girl fan, was walking on the campus of Hankook University holding onto the tickets she had successfully purchased.
“This is Korea University, the most prestigious university in Korea that my brother attends.”

Now that I am 17 years old, and at the age where I have to take the CSAT the next year, I can feel how much more amazing Jeong Seo-hoon is.
Because Jeong Seo-hoon entered Hankuk University’s College of Engineering at the same age as himself.
The idea that there would be no male entertainer more perfect than him in the rest of his life became more and more firmly established as time passed.
“I also have to pass the engineering school at Hankuk University and become my brother’s junior.”
After verifying her mobile phone at the entrance, Yu-Ri Kim, who entered the venue following the billboards with her swollen dreams, became a stone that stopped her silence.
“Nice to meet you, Kim Yu-ri.”
“Uh, uh… … .”
Unexpectedly, Yu-Ri Kim, who bumped into Seo-Hoon Jeong, turned white in her head.
Why is my brother here?
Did you come across it by chance? Even if ticketing success isn’t enough, such luck in succession to me?
“I am currently filming and making instant picture frames on site. Would you like to take a picture with me?”
“Uh, uh. Z, is it an instant picture frame?”
“Yes. This is a gift for fans. You can decline it if you don’t want to.”
“I will! I will!”
Yu-ri Kim put on a happy face and stood close to Jeong Seo-hun.
The camera operator hurriedly took several pictures, and Jeong Seo-hun spoke softly again.
“I will give you the frames all at once. Then would you please go inside and wait for me?”
“Yes!”
Yuri Kim, whose expression melted like sea urchin sushi on a hot summer day, calmly entered the main venue as a mild sheep.
A VJ was recording those scenes on camera and streaming them live.
Paid online participants were stomping their feet and endlessly extending the scroll bar of the chat window to infinity among themselves.
-Mchchh mchchh I envy you ㅠㅠ
– As soon as you enter, the bachelor brats! It’s perfect for one-on-one photos together!
-Chapter 11 is completely hyeja;; Just getting that frame is already breaking the bank
-I want to get that frame even when I’m 30.
-Bachelor today’s Cody is like a new bridegroom, so it’s more fatal ㅠㅠ
Most of the fans were mostly women.
There were male fans one by one, but their presence was vague.
But for the first time, someone Jung Seo-hoon had to look up to appeared.
“Instant frame? Hmm, between men, this is a bit masculine.”
When a male fan with a figure taller than 190 appeared, the paid viewing chat window turned upside down.
-Oh my goodness! What!
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋ No, the height of the bachelor is 183, but what is the eye level the bachelor looks up at?
-You look like you’re two meters tall?
-At least over 190
“Still, it would be a pity if I didn’t come here anyway. Where are the pictures not uploaded?”
“Yes. Only frames are made and destroyed.”
“Then let’s take a picture.”

No matter how you look at it, that nonchalant attitude is far from an avid fan.
Oh Tae-woo stood on the right side of Jeong Seo-hun with his hands behind his back.
Jeong Seo-hoon also looked straight at the camera and caught his gaze, and the camera operator hid his embarrassed expression and said in a trembling voice.
“Okay, let’s take a picture… … .”
“Oh, knight. Don’t fire the flash. The doctor said it was bad for my eyes.”
“Ah, I see.”

Not only the camera driver, but also the streaming VJ, host company, and banquet hall staff all had the same thought at this moment.
‘Why do gangsters come to a place like this?’
* * *
Whoops!
Oh So-hee and Kim Da-hye spewed beer out of their mouths at the same time.
“Oh, f*ck! It’s a surprise!”
“Brother Taewoo! Why is Tae-woo oppa over there? Are any of the contestants criminals? Or is the sasaeng hiding? Did you go to catch it?”
“Kim Da-hye! Make sense! Isn’t that brown bear cunningly excluding us and ticketing alone!”
In the first place, I couldn’t do it because it was the one-person-one-shot rule, but it didn’t matter to my younger sister, who had turned her eyes on me.
“If it wasn’t for that brown bear, I would have gone there!”
The fact that the waiting number was 80,000 is also not important now.
Meanwhile, among paid online participants, there were those who recognized Oh Tae-woo.
-That man is famous. I saw her often at Yoo Jung-ah fan meetings.
– It’s so big that you can’t miss it.
– hahahahaha Did that man throw away Yoojung and go to our bachelor?
-N-N-N-N-The way I see it, I came because I wanted to appear as a guest for Yoo Jung-ah. I’m right in rebuttal
