I Became a Producer Who Rewrites Idols

6 – Warehouse Release Group (6)

“Hey, everyone is pretty.”

Coordinator Hwang took Jooyoon Choi, Eva Kang, and Shion Gong to the dressing room and decorated them.

Lots of lace and frills, floating skirts, neat shoes, and stockings.

And finally, a bonnet hat with a flower decoration and a ribbon tied under the chin.

[Name: Joo-yoon Choi]

[Visual: 64 → 72]

[Name: Eva Kang]

[Visual: 73 → 81]

[Name: Gong Si-on]

[Visual: 71 → 79]

The visual value of all three has increased significantly.

The makeup was done like a doll, and the cheek touches and eye shades matched each person’s color well.

“…… “It suits you really well.”

Manager Jeong Song-i muttered next to me.

It wasn’t sarcastic like other times, it was a nuance that I really admired.

I felt like the bridge of my nose was rising for no reason.

“Producer, this is cute, but does it really suit me?”

Gong Si-ion asked, looking around at his clothes.

“After seeing this, people on the Internet said it was great.”

“Wow!”

He smiled brightly as if he was satisfied with my answer.

As far as I know, even though Gongsion has participated in the project every year,

In order to highlight the image of a dancer, it was decorated to have a cool image rather than a cute one.

“All three of you, from today onwards, wear Lolita fashion like this every day. “We will cover the cost of clothes and cosmetics.”

“Yes… ?!” “… ….” “All right!”

Gong Shi-on readily agreed, but

Choi Ju-yoon looked embarrassed.

[Name: Eva Kang]

[Current thought: They say they match well, so it’s true that they match well… …. I don’t know if I’m on stage, but I wear this every day, whether it’s on the bus or the subway… ?]

Kang Eva didn’t seem to be very pleased either.

“Oh, Joo-yoon goes to school, so it’s okay to wear a uniform to school.”

“Except for going to school, do you go out in Lolita fashion?” ?”

“Idols must not only maintain a concept on stage, but also naturally maintain it in their everyday appearance. “You never know where your fans will be, right?”

“Well, do we have to worry about that already…?” ?”

He walked up to Joo-yoon Choi, grabbed her shoulders with both hands, and spoke strongly.

“Listen carefully, Jooyun.”

“Yes, yes…” !”

“Joo Yoon, Eva, and Shion will all debut, appear on broadcasts, hold events, and hold concerts.”

“Ah, it doesn’t quite feel right yet….”

“That can’t be helped. It can’t be helped, but at least you have to have a professional attitude. “If you have an amateur mindset, you can’t become a professional.”

“Ah… , yes! “So, what you’re saying is that you should always act in accordance with the concept with a professional mindset?”

“That’s right.”

I let go of Choi Joo-yoon’s shoulder and widened the distance slightly again.

Eva Kang probably listened to what I said to Choi Joo-yoon, and her complaints subsided.

“Producer!”

Gong Si On raised his hand high again and said.

“But even though we were told to act according to the concept, we weren’t actually told what the concept was?”

“Oh, I see.”

… In fact, the group name and concept were already decided within the [Idol Producing] Game.

But now that I have become a real producer, even that was an item I had to decide on.

In a way, it could be seen as the core of producing.

Because we are training you to fit the concept.

“First of all, the name of the three members’ group is….”

“Group name! “Dukdukdukduk!”

Gongsion made his own drum sound with his mouth.

“Cursed Dolls!”

“… Yes? Cus… “What do you say, producer?”

Choi Joo-yoon tilted his head,

“Cursed dolls… ?”

He asked me what it meant.

I understood it right away, perhaps because I was an active high school senior preparing for the college entrance exam.

[Name: Eva Kang]

[Current Thoughts: … Could it be that I was cursed not to be able to speak, Jooyun was cursed not to be able to dance, and Shion was cursed not to be able to sing, so they are cursed dolls?]

… Eva Kang, a Seoul National University graduate, guessed right from her group name to her concept.

Honestly, considering the circumstances of the three, it seemed like a bit of an excessive naming.

No, the game production team created it like this?

[Idol Producing] If I follow what was shown in the game, shouldn’t they be successful too?

Because it was successful in the game.

“Looking at Eva’s face, I don’t think you know what I mean?”

“… ….”

[Current Thoughts: Is the producer a mind reader? ? You wouldn’t be able to tell by looking at my face. He’s a really strange person….]

… Sorry, I’m a mind reader.

Afterwards, Eva Kang explained her group name and concept instead of me in her members’ chat room.

Gong Si-ion said, “That sounds plausible!” I accepted it easily.

Choi Joo-yoon had a somewhat complicated expression.

“Ah, that’s why you want us to look big and like dolls, producer!”

“That’s right, Mr. Shion.”

Out of the three, the person who liked the concept the most was Gong Si-on.

Tuktuk.

Suddenly, Cody Hwang lightly tapped my forearm.

“I’m a professional, I’m a professional.”

“Why?”

Come to think of it, Lucky Seven Entertainment strangely calls producers pros.

Honestly, I haven’t completely gotten used to the title yet….

“Can I take a picture?! “Of all the kids I’ve worked with, this is the first time I get along so well!!”

“It doesn’t matter, but please don’t leak it to the outside world yet?”

“Of course! “I’ll keep it on my external hard drive!”

Hwang Cody brought an expensive-looking DSLR from somewhere,

Click—, click—.

I took pictures of three people.

But, perhaps because Choi Joo-yoon and Gong Si-on are trainees, they immediately smiled and posed for the camera.

… Eva Kang also posed, but her face remained expressionless.

“Cool cute beauty!!”

Coordinator Hwang took the most pictures of Eva Kang, probably because he liked that.

“Coordinator Hwang, you will also tell me later….”

“As a professional, I take care of everything! “Of course, I’ll send it to you with all the corrections!”

Idols who know that they will do well in the future,

This is a photo that shows what it looked like before it went well.

Tamnaji.

“True manager.”

“Yes, producer.”

“When is the last inspection this month?”

“Wait a minute….”

Manager Jeong Song-i took out the diary from the pocket of her suit skirt.

“Um…. It’s the 26th. “February is short.”

“Let’s add it too.”

“Huh?! Producer, hasn’t it been even a week since you started preparing?!”

“It’s okay, please put it in.”

“Producer, just be a little more cautious, okay? “There’s no need to be in such a hurry.”

Manager Jeong Song-i tried very hard to dissuade her.

Lucky Seven Entertainment conducts a ‘final inspection’ at the end of the month.

Before sending the idols planned by each producer to the market,

It is shown to the company executives and evaluated.

Of course, if it fails the final inspection, it cannot be released.

In general, the project itself is canceled.

If you pass, you can begin full-fledged activities.

Anyway, most of what we had to do was done, and the only thing left was for the three of us to practice hard.

I was just planning to get a final inspection after 3 weeks.

It was unexpected that Manager Jeong Songi stopped me like this.

I guess it’s because even if you’re an incompetent producer who doesn’t know when you’ll get fired today or tomorrow, you don’t want to do anything too reckless.

Oh, if the project fails, will the manager’s evaluation also suffer?

The status window does not appear because manager Jeong Song-i is not an idol.

I couldn’t tell the exact intention.

“Manager, it’s okay. “I will pay you back for the sushi, and even if the project fails, I will tell the manager that it was ruined because of my arbitrariness.”

“That’s not it… ….”

I tried my best to say it, but

In fact, Manager Jeong Song-i lowered his head even more.

What, did I say something wrong?

“Manager Jeong, from what I can see, Pro Im’s project is a success! “It’s strange to drop it when it suits you so well.”

Unexpectedly, Cody Hwang was on my side.

Manager Jeong Song-i listened to Cody Hwang’s words and sighed deeply,

“Okay…. Then, we will schedule the final inspection of Cursed Dolls on February 26th.”

From noble mtl dot com

Accepted.

“But, producer.”

This time, Gong Si-ion spoke to me.

“For the final inspection, it has to be an original song. “We don’t have any of our songs yet, what should we do?”

“Mr. Shion, what do you think of me?”

“I see you as a producer.”

“… ….”

I don’t know if drip works for Gongsion or not.

“I’ve prepared all the songs.”

“Huh?! “Well, it’s only for two days?!”

“Please praise me more!”

“I can’t even imagine how crazy it is!!”

“… ….”

I didn’t get any compliments….

I worked hard for two days to find a debut song for Cursed Dolls.

“I even added guide vocals….”

“You really did it all in two days?! “Didn’t you prepare in advance?!”

“… “Now, if you don’t believe me, I’m going to cry.”

“Oh, I’m sorry.”

When I pretended to cry on purpose, Gong Si-ion immediately apologized.

Well, I didn’t know I could do it all in two days.

“Ah… , Is this a song that was in the database?”

“That’s right. “I know Joo-yoon is like that too.”

Lucky Seven Entertainment hired not only its own coordinator but also its own composer.

So, he regularly uploaded songs written by the composer himself to the company database.

I searched the database all night long to see if there was a song I wanted.

In fact, since the [Idol Producing] Game is an idol game, each group also released original songs.

I mainly played [Idol Producing] Because I liked the training part, but I also listened to a lot of the songs.

… So much so that I can memorize the lyrics.

Fortunately, Cursed Dolls’ debut song was in the database.

Even so, because there were no lyrics,

I racked my brain and added the lyrics.

Well, all I had to do was transcribe the lyrics I had memorized.

So, I happened to become a lyricist….

“I wrote the lyrics.”

“Yes… ?! The producer himself… ?!”

Gong Si-on, who was listening to my conversation with Choi Joo-yoon next to me, also looked a bit shocked.

“Just listen first.”

“Yes….”

“Since you are the producer, let’s hear how melancholy the lyrics will be!”

Why does Gong Shi-on think the lyrics I wrote are melancholic….

Because he’s a flame producer?

[Name: Eva Kang]

[Current Thoughts: In times like this, I’m glad it doesn’t show through my facial expressions. First of all, the producer made an effort, but you can’t laugh without thinking.]

… Assuming that Eva Kang was smiling, I prepared to listen to her debut song.

I found yesterday’s debut song file on my smartphone and played it, including the guide vocals.

A song flowed from a speaker wirelessly connected to the smartphone.

“The title is ‘In Search of the Future.'”

-Knock, knock, knock, knock. The clock is running backwards~♪

Three people listened to the song seriously.

Gong Shi-on looked at me as if I was really surprised and smiled.

And he shook his head weakly, as if in rhythm.

It’s not a very long song, at 3 minutes and 10 seconds.

When the song ended, Choi Joo-yoon suddenly grabbed both of my hands.

After Kang Eva, this is the second time that an idol holds my hand.

hehehe….

“Well, I really, really saw it again, Producer…. “Thank you so much for letting me sing such a great song.”

“I chose you because I thought you and Jooyun would get along well.”

“Honestly, I’m still a little anxious…. Final inspection on February 26th, I will definitely pass… !”

“Yes, let’s work hard together!”

Ding—.

I heard a chat notification sound and took out my smartphone.

[Eva: Producer, have you ever practiced writing before? I love it☆ It fits our concept perfectly!!]

“Eva, cheer up along with me!”

[Eva: Yes☆]

Now, just as I was about to say the same thing to Gong Si-on,

Suddenly she held my hand tightly.

Today, I touched the hands of all three idols.

It’s a lucky day.

… Maybe something happens after this?

“Producer, the song is really good!”

“Thank you.”

“But what about the choreography?”

“…… Oh.”

“Oh?!”

I was so busy singing that I forgot about the dancing.

“Oh, the choreography was well thought out. That’s because it’s not finished yet. First, all three of you, memorize the song.”

“Producer!! “Don’t be rude!!”

Gong Shi-on pouted his lips and lost his temper.

… After all, it couldn’t be faked.

“Then I’m off to discuss the choreography further with the choreographer…” .”

“Producer—!!”

To avoid Gong Si-on’s criticism, she ran wild.

***

It’s definitely not a bad thing for celebrities to be busy all the time.

It means that you go out to make money.

However, Berryz members—Joo Do-yeon, Go Na-kyung, Yang Hae-in, and Jin Hae-sol—all reduced their sleep to two hours and severely restricted their calorie intake.

Broadcast appearances have disappeared, and requests for participation in even small events in the neighborhood have disappeared.

As if I was back as a trainee before my debut, all I could see when I opened my eyes was practice and lessons.

“Ah, that’s cool. Haesol massages her shoulders well.”

In no time, the new producer spoke to the four Berries.

Not only that, it had to fit the producer’s personal business.

Squeak—.

Go Na-kyung went to the supermarket near the company.

She holds a plastic bag containing beer bottles in her hand.

It was an instruction from a new producer.

“W-here…” . Card and receipt…….”

Go Na-kyung was still eighteen years old, so she was not old enough to purchase alcoholic beverages. She

In order not to offend the new producer, she pretended to be an adult as much as possible and brought her drinks.

“I’m curious how delicious the drink Na-kyung pours is?”

“Yes… ? I want you to follow me… ?”

“What, you don’t like it?”

Go Na-kyung could not answer, ‘I don’t like it.’

Instead, she pushed back the sigh that rose up to her throat and placed the glass of alcohol on her table directly into the hands of the new producer.

She popped the cap off her beer bottle and tipped it into her glass.

What kind of idol is this?

She’s a bar girl.

The late Na-kyung wanted to slap the new producer right away and go back to her house, but

She had to endure it.

No matter how dirty and disgusting it is,

If this producer lets go of her, all his efforts will have been in vain.

If you’d rather do something like this,

Producer Lim Boo-gil, who had a good-looking face, would have been better.

Flattering to an ugly new producer,

It was harder than I thought.

***

Time passes quickly,

February 26th.

It was the day Cursed Dolls received their final inspection.

Choi Ju-yoon and Gong Si-on were standing backstage with very nervous faces.

… Eva Kang was there too, but I couldn’t tell from her expression whether she was nervous or not.

[Name: Eva Kang]

[Vocal: 71 → 78 / Dance: 72 → 78 / Talking: 8 / Visual: 81 → 84]

[Current thought: I can, I can, I can.]

As expected, Eva Kang was also very nervous on the inside.

As a result of continuous training for 3 weeks,

Eva Kang’s abilities have risen evenly.

Originally, her upward curve became more gradual after 70 or higher, so she was on the high side when she rose to this level.

[Name: Joo-yoon Choi]

[Vocal: 87 → 89 / Dance: 35 / Talking: 42 → 43 / Visual: 72 → 76]

[Name: Gong Si-on]

[Vocal: 30 / Dance: 82 → 84 / Talking: 74 → 77 / Visual: 79 → 82]

All three people’s abilities have grown, but

… As expected, the vulnerable areas remained the same.

Well, there were some things I didn’t order on purpose.

If you force yourself to do something you’re not good at, you won’t develop useful skills in a short period of time.

-Please join Cursed Dolls next time.

“Now, let me say one last thing.”

“Yes… !” “… ….” “Yes!”

Three people gathered in a circle around me.

Now, I have done almost everything I could do before my debut.

“Avoid difficult things and enjoy only what you enjoy.”

“Yes!” “Yes!!”

Kang Eva also nodded her head.

“Then go!”

I produced for the first time Choi Joo-yoon, Kang Eva, and Gong Si-on.

The three Cursed Dolls members went up to the first stage.

It was a moment when I was a bit nervous too.
