When I returned to the dorm, all the members were there. At the same time, it was time for a drama starring Shin Ji-woon, so I turned on the TV. Shin Ji-woon said in pain.
“Let’s see something else.”
Then the Stork Dawn said.
“My older sister these days is Pura’s best friend. At first, you came out and said you couldn’t move in, but you’re Seon-gyeom who is Seon-gyeom, and you are you.”
“My sister said the same thing.”
When Han Hyo-seok also chimed in, Min Ji-ho, who was over-immersed in the drama, couldn’t take his eyes off the screen and said.
“But I don’t think I’ll be able to become a hyung. Poor Seon-gyeom.”
Ahn Joo-won, who was concentrating on the drama next to him, said.
“I like Inhyuk hyung.”
“Yeah, that’s the coolest thing.”
“Ah, just talk to me.”
After praising another actor for a while, Shin Ji-woon showed a temper.
Anyway, there are quite a few members who like dramas, so the meeting was postponed until after all the members watched. Hwang Sae-byeok said while I was looking to see if I could get any material from the drama.
“Take care of Jung Hae-won.”
“No, I don’t… … .”
Then Park Seon-jae confronted him.
“Haewon is hyung’s favorite. You like Rocco.”
That’s right.
With that in mind, Shin Ji-woon asked.
“Hyung, I want someone to be Yuan (the female lead in the play) husband.”
“Inhyuk is the older brother.”
“Am I a member?”
“Still, Inhyuk hyung.”
At my answer, Shin Ji-woon squirmed and lay down. tired guy.
Anyway, after the drama ended, we finally entered the meeting.
I asked for a meeting and opened my mouth.
“I’ve talked about it before… … I’m going to release my solo sound on a separate label that Hyojun hyung is releasing. Well, the conditions are good in many ways. I just want to try it somewhere else. once.”
It was a response that all the members thought well of those words. I was still nervous and showed the blueprint I took earlier.
“This is the blueprint, this is my studio, and they say I made a practice room here.”
Juwon Ahn, who saw the blueprint, measured it and said.
“It’s a lot bigger than our practice room.”
“yes.”
I nodded, took a deep breath and looked at the members.
“I’ll go first and try it. If it’s okay, can we all go there together?”
At my words, the members became quiet for a while.

Of course. Renewing the contract isn’t about friendship, it’s about making a living.
Groups who have been trainees together and have survived successfully for 7 years will not know each other’s feelings when the contract renewal period comes. Even if they are like family and best friends, in the end, you have to decide your own future.
So, like all of us, the members who spent about two years as trainees at different companies, went down to the bottom of each other’s hearts in survival, and worked as a team together for just over two years, can’t even understand how they feel about renewing the contract.
In addition, at the time of the renewal of the contract, the eldest members of me and Hwang Sae-byeok were twenty-two, and the rest were younger than that. They must be eager to include our members in the idol team raised by their respective agencies.
It’s cheating to have a ‘recognized member’ in a rookie team.
I was talking.
“For the seven of us, moving together is unconditional and top priority. If you don’t like even one person, let’s find another way.”
“brother.”
Min Ji-ho raised his hand and I nodded, and Min Ji-ho continued.
“I will follow you wherever you go, so you don’t have to ask for my opinion anymore.”
“I’m not in a hurry to answer. You can think a little more.”
“I think this is it! I don’t even have a personal agency anyway, so if I leave TRV, I’m a free man!”
Min Ji-ho, who is the only one with no agency involved except for me, said and laughed, so the members were a little envious. I looked at the rest of the members. Everyone, somehow, seemed ignorantly excited. Except for Joo Won Ahn.
Ahn Joo-won, a member of TRV since she was a trainee, opened her mouth.
“Even if my First Light contract ends, I still have one year left on my contract at TRV.”
All the members looked around Ahn Joo-won, and Park Seon-jae said.
“Guys, how many of us are we going to see somewhere else? It’s embarrassing to look at them at the same time… … .”
“Oh right.”
Min Ji-ho immediately turned his head and looked elsewhere. Joo-won Ahn continued.
“For a year or so, my personal activities can be disrupted by stumbling and falling. At that time… … Make a schedule and work without me. One year.”
At those words, all the members who had been looking elsewhere for a while looked at Joo Won Ahn. Joo-won Ahn continued.
“If you don’t promise me, I won’t go.”
After Ahn Joo-won spoke and there was a moment of silence, Hwang Sae-byeok tapped me and said,
“You tell me. You are the most convincing among us.”
Shin Ji-woon agreed with that.
“right. Better than dogs.”
To be honest, I admit it too. Better than these guys… … .
I said looking at Joo Won An.
“I don’t promise that. So if you don’t go, I won’t go either.”
“… … hey.”
“Then, if I get mentally broken or in a slump, are you going to get a song from another composer and promise to work without me?”
Ahn Joo-won, whose eyes widened at my words, said.
“You and I are different.”
At that, Seonjae Park said with a smirk.
“Wow, it came out. I came out of my mind I knew it would.”
“How do you really think like that?”
Han Hyo-seok also said with a smirk. I leaned back and grumbled.
“Ahn Joo-won is born like that, so why is he so lacking in confidence? It’s a first light face.”
Ahn Joo-won muttered at my words.
“I think it’s Jiwoon and Hyo-seok.”
“What Shin Ji-woon admits to being a filial piety.”
“What am I? I am the most handsome.”
Shin Ji-woon, who was tired, grumbled, and Hwang Sae-byeok said to me.
“I think you are the most handsome.”
“What happened to your eyes? 2nd place? 2nd place is Minjoji? It’s because she’s shy, she looks so pretty even without her charms.”
“Ah, Jiwoon is second.”
At that, Min Ji-ho said.
“I like Dawn hyung with a strong face… … No, Haewon is not the hyung. My brother is cute.”
Min Ji-ho quickly wrapped it up in case I would get hurt. So, Shin Ji-woon said with a frown.
“I am the cutie.”
“no!”
“You’re not cute either.”
“Hey, that’s funny.”
Min Ji-ho laughed as if it was ridiculous. This was a sweeping victory for Min Ji-ho, the humanization of cuteness, but Shin Ji-woon’s brazenness surpassed the result. I saw Min Ji-ho and each other arguing that they were cute.
Then Min Ji-ho stood up and said.
“I’m first place, except for me, Dawn is hyung! I like the cartoon-like face. It’s unrealistic.”
“No, but if you just look at the features and good looks, they are Seonjae and Joowon.”
Park Seon-jae said with a face as if he could not accept Han Hyo-seok’s words.
“I also wanted to look like a cartoon character like Haewon hyung and Dawnyi hyung. The atmosphere just stays in your head.”
Just like when a lion and a tiger were fighting when they were young, like when they were fighting over who wins, seven people started arguing that their eyes were right, not knowing the passage of time.
If you asked me about my handsomeness, there was a difference between the fact that ‘the standard of handsomeness with hard features is a priority’ and the fact that ‘they have the same trendy face’.
And in the middle, I even re-established the ranking including attractiveness. I realized that human aesthetics are subtly different.
I was also excited about my argument, and told Ahn Joo-won, who was busy trying to dry it in the middle.
“Joo Won-ah.”
“yes.”
“Don’t make such a promise, let’s just go.”
“… … .”
“Hyojun hyung is the first person, he was the only person who understood that our team shouldn’t be broken. I don’t know if it’s just a word, but it was the first time someone said that. So let’s just believe it. But you promise to drop out of activity.”
“… … .”
“Hey, our eyes are low because we are TRVs. Coordinating each individual’s own agency is the agency’s job, maybe?”
Ahn Joo-won thought about my words using Kang Hyo-jun’s words for a moment, and then laughed.
“Okay. still… … .”
“Uh, but if you bring me a script that looks like Shin Ji-woon, I’ll send it to you.”
“right! I like to see members appear in dramas!”
At Min Ji-ho’s words, Han Hyo-seok was relieved.
“Do you like it because you can make fun of it?”
“hem.”
Min Ji-ho nodded and laughed.
I looked around the rest of the members.
“therefore… … .”
“ah.”
Hwang Sae-byeok, who was leaning back and smiling, stopped laughing and sat down right away.
“Of course, the terms of the contract will have to be taken into account. But I think everyone will agree that there is no other convincing answer like this.”
“These days, Hwang Sae-byeok is like a leader.”
Hwang Sae-byeok was embarrassed by my words, so he wrinkled his nose and held out his hand and continued.
“Let’s move together. There is only death for a traitor.”
right. we did That is a very, very scary and reassuring promise. We put our hands together and offered a slogan. A sense of belonging rises. hahahaaha.

For safety’s sake, I was temporarily working at VVV Entertainment, and a status window popped up.
[Industry giants pay attention]
… … Is there an error?
While I was waving my hands while thinking about it, Hyojun Kang came into the studio and asked.
“what are you doing?”
“Stretch.”
“ah.”
Kang Hyo-joon, who is far from Ye-min, nodded with a face saying, “It must be so.” I asked at this time.
“Brother, but. If the kids say they want to come to the new agency, why not try to entice the team that they plan to come with from TRV?”
Hyo-Jun Kang said absurdly at my words.
“You call that a question? It’s about getting a career job. The problem is that you won’t come.”
“I’m going to have to cuddle.”
While I was talking and laughing hehehe, Hyojun Kang presented the material.
“what?”
“I showed the demo to Director Hong, so it must have been a rush. They sent out all sorts of stuff.”
“Wow, what is this… … .”
I blinked my eyes as I turned over the continuity. No, I didn’t like this concept… … can this be?
by the way.
“Isn’t the production cost wrong? Is it more than our team’s music video production cost?”
“You said You have low eyes.”
“No, look at the numbers. Is this correct?”
“right. I must have spelled the number wrong, I’m not even an amateur.”
me… … Is it really snowy?
I actually thought I had high standards, but not at all.
Hyojun Kang continued.
“It’s the agency’s first album, so of course we have to choose well. Let’s do a music room or two.”
My heart was pounding at the word “umbang,” and then it was just beating and repeating alternately.
alone on stage? Are you really alone? Not a concert, not a fan meeting, alone on a music show? What if the sun doesn’t come to see me… … .
I remembered the time when our members pushed us because we couldn’t get our feet off the stage with New Days during The Rising. But contrary to my concerns about my weak mentality, it calmed down unexpectedly quickly.
Kang Hyo-jun asked suspiciously.
“What do you think?”
“I want to go up on stage.”
“Oh yeah. You look excited.”
That’s right. The excitement of the stage was driving away the fear as much as possible. It seems that I am also doing growth.
I took a moment to get off the stage and asked.
“By the way, what is the name of your agency?”
“I’m still thinking. What are you okay with?”
“Ah, knowing that the time to compose the title is longer than the time to compose.”
“but. You should ask the person you want to ask.”
While we were talking, I saw someone with a small face and big eyes peeking inside, wearing a full-on hat outside the studio.
As soon as I recognized who it was, I quickly got up and bowed 90 degrees to greet him, and Kang Hyo-jun opened the door and said:
“Why are you in HQ 4?”
“It’s been a while since I came to work, so I came to see what you did.”
Dae-on Song, a member of the cosmic star, Clarus, spoke to me and glanced at me. The big star’s aura fell. I said hello again.
“Hello, this is First Light Jung Hae-won!”
“Oh, are you Haewon?”
mom and dad. The cosmic star knows me. The cosmic star… … .
“Did you eat? If you haven’t eaten, let’s eat.”
“I didn’t eat it, but even if I did, I can eat it again, senior.”
“Oh yeah?”
I thought it was funny that I was babbling, but Song Da-on smiled and beckoned me to come out.
