“Oh my gosh… there’s going to be an uproar at the board eting again… Huh…”
“Honey, if we leave Jun like that.”
“Be quiet! My head still hurts! Kang-Jun says you can decide whether to go out and search for that bastard or not!”
In the eyes of Director Seo Jung-won, life was lacking. The anger caused by anxiety was welling up to the top of my head.
KK’s success did not have a direct impact on Man to Man or Ara Entertainnt. However, it was the singers from Ara Entertainnt who were always in first place. If you get first place, it’s taken for granted, but if you fall below that…
‘No matter how successful you are, you’ll be pushed out.’ To the minnows.’
Director Seo Joong-won gritted his teeth.
It was obvious that if the board of directors were to be held, the managent and staff of Ara Entertainnt, which had a larger capital and talent pool, would be reprimanded for what they did while KK, which started as a small company, achieved such results.
There were no other alternative forces within Ara Entertainnt, and Man to Man was growing in popularity again in its own way, so it wouldn’t be a big problem for him to beco the CEO, but he couldn’t help but feel annoyed.
Being a representative wasn’t the only thing that mattered. The appearance was also important.
“you! “What are you saying like that?!”
My wife’s voice trembled as if she was shocked by Director Seo Jung-won’s words.
At the sound of his wife’s voice, Director Seo Joong-won cald his rough breathing. The king of this family was Director Seo Jung-won, but he could not ignore his wife.
His wife was the famous daughter of a mber of the National Assembly in the tropolitan area. It was his wife’s family that gave strength to Director Seo Jung-won, who had nothing but ability.
“That’s what it says. I’ve said it several tis. Wait. Kang-Jun tells him to stop whining to his mom and be patient. uh? You have to beco the CEO to bring him in and bring him back…”
“Return?”
“okay. “Kangjun can’t just rot that guy like that.”
At Director Seo Joong-won’s words, his wife’s stiff expression softened.
“I thought you didn’t think about Jun at all… But since the controversy made a lot of noise, will he even be able to co back? Just co back to Korea…”
“That will all be resolved over ti. “If you co in the middle, it just gets noisy.”
Director Seo Jung-won’s wife nodded.
After KK’s article was linked, another ssage arrived from Director Seo Jung-won.
It said that KK’s articles could no longer be blocked.

“Billboard Music Awards…?”
Jeong Yoongi muttered in a trembling voice.
“Michelle no… you’re kidding, right?”
“Is this a hidden cara?”
〈Michelle’s Night〉 studio scene. After a mont of silence that seed like a still image, questions from the mbers poured in.
Dowook’s big eyes were so big that they seed like they were about to pop out. Jung Yoon-gi continued to wash his face dry as if he couldn’t believe it, and Ahn Hyeong-seo’s hands were shaking when he asked if it was a hidden cara.
It wasn’t just the mbers who were surprised. The fans in the audience were also filled with joy. Fans in the audience waved placards with the mbers’ nas written on them even more vigorously.
Michelle, who was asked through an interpreter whether it was a hidden cara, said with a serious look on her face when she looked at the audience.
“If it’s a hidden cara… I might not be able to go ho today, right? “I don’t think the keyrings will let go.”
Hahaha, laughter erupted from the audience.
While everyone was shocked and dumbfounded, Seok Ji-hoon was the only one who was looking around blankly.
Seok Ji-hoon, who was drinking juice placed in front of him for a thirsty guest during the talk show, missed the interpreter’s comnt that he was a candidate for the Billboard Music Awards’ Rookie Award.
Since I had only vaguely heard the term ‘Billboard Music Awards’, I thought they were asking if that was the goal. However, the reaction around was unusual, so I was trying to find the right ti to ask Dowook, who was sitting next to .
Do-wook, who noticed that Seok Ji-hoon was not listening properly, spoke to Seok Ji-hoon.
“They said we were nominated for the Billboard Music Awards’ Best New Artist Award.”
Seok Ji-hoon, who had been taking another sip of orange juice, stiffened at Do-wook’s words.
And the orange juice I was drinking just flowed down my mouth.
“Aaaah!”
The fans who witnessed this scread. The cara that was holding Seok Ji-hoon did not miss a close-up of Seok Ji-hoon.
The studio beca noisy again. The mbers also saw Seok Ji-hoon, who had the attention of fans, and saw Seok Ji-hoon slurping orange juice in surprise.
A staff mber ca up in a huff and handed Seok Ji-hoon a tissue through an interpreter.
Wiping his mouth and chin with a tissue, Seok Ji-hoon was more surprised and happy than embarrassed.
“what’s the matter!”
Kim Won shouted, and Jeong Yoon-gi laughed, pointing his finger at Seok Ji-hoon’s funny behavior.
However, Jung Yoongi’s eyes were red as he giggled. Even though I was laughing, I kept wrinkled my nose as if it was getting crooked.
‘I don’t know if I will be able to win the award, but… I am already a first in Korea just by being nominated.’
Dowook suppressed his overwhelming emotions.
In so ways, it was a ss, but I could tell that the KK mbers were surprised and happy about sothing unexpected. A warm smile appeared on Michelle’s lips.
“They are truly pure young people. It seems like everyone has recognized this charm. “I think I’ll be a fan too.”
“thank you. You also gave good news. “There are two happy things happening today.”
Michelle laughed at Dowook’s answer.
“Now then, shall we begin the actual talk? There has already been a lot of delay…”
The assistant manager sent a sign to Michelle.
“Ah, the talk with KK today was originally supposed to last only about 10 minutes. I decided to extend the ti. It looks like the internet is going to explode right now. They say streaming sites are paralyzed. “It’s amazing!”
The audience cheered at Michelle’s words.
The KK mbers also laughed heartily. It felt like I was sitting on a cloud rather than a chair.
As planned, Michelle asked about the song ‘Continue’, about the group K.K., the color of the music, and about writing and composing the lyrics herself.
Do-wook and Kim Won mainly answered them in smooth English.
The other mbers nodded their heads enthusiastically and concentrated on the talk. Just like that, the live broadcast filming of ‘Michelle’s Night’ was coming to an end.

.
.
When the KK mbers returned to their accommodations in the United States, articles were already pouring in from Korea. It was late at night in the United States, but it was dayti in Korea, so the articles poured out even more non-stop.
There was talk of opening so champagne, but the consensus was that there would be a celebration party if the award was won.
Instead, the mbers decided to prioritize planning for the future.
Anyway, the endorphins were so high that I didn’t think I would fall asleep easily.
Therefore, even though the mbers were tense and exhausted after accomplishing the incredible task of their first live broadcast in the United States, they all gathered in the hotel’s conference room.
Originally, KK’s plan was to release Okay’s album followed by Dowook’s solo album, but it seed like the direction needed to be changed.
I was planning to have an initial conversation today and then go back to Korea and coordinate the schedule with production team leader Shim Jun.
The mbers checked their phones while waiting for team leader Lee Dae-hyung and manager Oh Baek-ho to finish preparing and arrive. It was not easy to put down the phone because K.K.’s na was all over the portal site’s real-ti search terms and articles.
The expressions of the mbers who checked the article were bright.
Of course, there were mbers who were not so bright. It was Seok Ji-hoon.
“Ugh, you spilled so much?”
Seok Ji-hoon’s orange juice video was already boasting a huge number of views on MyTube. Seok Ji-hoon, who watched the video, fell down on his desk pretending to tear his hair out. Then he got up and said to Dowook.
“What if you suddenly tell such news?”
Since it could not be undone, the idea was to bla it on anyone.
“Hey, we all suddenly heard it too?”
Do-wook smiled awkwardly, and Jeong Yoon-gi responded as if he was dumbfounded.
Hyungseo Ahn said, giggling.
“You’re also a mber of a variety show, Jihoon! Congratulations on becoming a World Wide Entertainnt mber!”
“I got a new nickna, Orunji Boy! Orunji boy~!”
Kim Won humd and said. Hyeong-seo Ahn shouted, ‘Oreunji Boy’ as if in a chorus. Seok Ji-hoon fell on his face again in frustration as ‘Orunji Boy’ was repeated to the point that his ears were ringing.
“Ah…”
Park Taehyung patted Seok Jihoon on the back. However, it was true that even Park Tae-hyung could not hold back his laughter while looking at Seok Ji-hoon in the video that had already been made into a ‘GIF’.
“…But I think the fans are really happy too.”
Do-wook, who had been writing in the fan cafe for the first ti in a while, said: Kim Won-i ‘Of course.’ I answered. It was not only the mbers who heard the news through ‘Michelle’s Night’, but also the fans who were watching the live broadcast.
Seeing the ssages of support from fans who were happy with the work as if it were their own, Dowook felt very proud.
At that ti, the door opened and team leader Lee Dae-hyung and manager Oh Baek-ho ca in.
“Congratulations again.”
When team leader Lee Dae-hyung said congratulations, Director Oh Baek-ho said.
“It’s still too early to celebrate. You should win an award and be properly congratulated. Isn’t that right?”
There was no separate live carrot or stick. The mbers smiled and nodded.
There was a light conversation about future activities.
Activities in the United States were also sothing that team leader Lee Dae-hyung had been thinking about when he was invited to appear in “Michelle’s Night.” However, team leader Lee Dae-hyung was convinced that it was ti to accelerate since he was nominated for the Billboard Music Award.
Team leader Lee Dae-hyung talked about KK’s potential. It was no longer just a possibility. It was reality.
“… So, according to the analysis results, the fan base in the United States is truly significant. “I didn’t get a request for a role for nothing.”
The mbers nodded to Team Leader Daehyung Lee’s explanation.
“Of course, if we want to carry out full-fledged activities in the United States, we will have to sign a contract with a local company in the United States, just as we signed an outsourcing contract with Nakamoto in Japan…. In fact, we already have discussions, so I don’t think it will be difficult. “That part.”
Do-wook looked at team leader Dae-hyung Lee and nodded.
He was definitely a talent that needed to be captured at all costs. Just as Team Leader Lee Dae-hyung saw a positive future for Do-wook, Do-wook was also confident that Team Leader Lee Dae-hyung would beco a greater person.
“Whether I win an award or not, it’s clear that I’m on the bandwagon now. “I think now is the ti to do activities in the United States.”
After quenching his thirst with water, Team Leader Lee Dae-hyung continued speaking.
“For that to happen, I think the OK unit album and Dowook’s solo album will have to be postponed…”
“I’m fine. “Because there are priorities.”
Jeong Yoon-gi answered.
In fact, the hardest thing to put off was OK’s unit album. Kim Won and Jeong Yoon-gi worked hard to release the album within schedule. However, when Jeong Yoon-gi answered willingly, Team Leader Lee Dae-hyung’s expression brightened.
“ too. Arica… I don’t believe it, but we have to do our best now. Here.”
Kim Won also added. Dowook, who thought for a bit, asked.
“There will be no problem with the Chinese promotion schedule, right?”
“So things have already been caught, so we should make sure there are no problems.”
They were caught because of . We couldn’t abandon our Chinese fans because of our Arican activities. Although Do-wook couldn’t handle the influx of recruitnt inquiries, his belief that Do-wook should also focus on KK’s activities remained unchanged.
‘How far can KK go…’
In Do-wook’s heart, only a strong will to work harder was burning, regardless of personal popularity.
Team leader Lee Dae-hyung nodded that he understood the mbers’ intentions and concluded the story by saying that he thought they would have to go back to the company and have more etings.
Team leader Lee Dae-hyung spoke to Do-wook as he left the conference room.
“I expected it, but it’s amazing that it actually happened like this…”
It was the sa for Do-wook. Every day was new and amazing.
“Please continue to take good care of in the future. manager.”
“ too. “I thought it was already normal, but now that it’s like this, there’s a long way to go.”
Do-wook smiled at team leader Dae-hyung Lee’s words.
