I Became a Producer Who Rewrites Idols

8 – Warehouse Release Group (8)

Cursed Dolls members—Choi Ju-yoon, Kang Eva, and Gong Shi-on looked at each other.

I was also surprised to suddenly hear on the broadcast that Cursed Dolls ranked first in the final inspection.

Since they were re-counting while trying to say 3rd place, I thought there must have been a problem with 3rd place.

“”Wow—!!””

The three idols hugged me.

Idols’ soft flesh wrapping around my body,

The fact that the idol group I raised achieved excellent results at the first hurdle,

I couldn’t stop the corners of my mouth from rising.

Ah, I am happy!

The three Cursed Dolls members were happy for a while, then let me go.

It was a little disappointing, but

If you are too close to the idol in charge, bad rumors will spread.

Manager Jeong Song-i approached me.

Do you want to say something?

“Congratulations, producer…. Even when you debuted, you always came in 3rd place, but this time you came in 1st place.”

“It’s all thanks to their hard work.”

He pointed at the Cursed Dolls members with his chin.

Although I suggested directions, there is no guarantee that they will be followed unconditionally, like in a game.

But these three trusted me and followed my production.

Pak—.

Gong Shion hit my back hard with his palm.

… My hands were slightly numb.

“What are you talking about, producer! Every aspiring idol makes an effort! “It’s all thanks to the producer’s consideration of us!”

“That’s right… ! To be honest, I was nervous at first……. I’m really fortunate that my person is the producer… !!”

[Eva: Thank you, producer☆]

It was a little heartbreaking.

I’m not old enough yet to weaken my tear glands.

“Oh, the producer is crying!”

“Oh, I’m not crying!”

“I’m crying!! “The producer, who is already old, is crying!!”

“I’m not crying!”

I quickly wiped my eyes with my sleeve.

I graduated from an average university and worked at an average company.

I have never won first place in real life other than in games.

Even that game was limited to an idol training game.

So, even though it is a game world, in this place where reality is reality,

I was thrilled to beat other competitors and come in first place.

Click—.

Suddenly, a photo-taking sound was heard from somewhere.

“It’s my first time seeing the producer cry!”

… It was taken by manager Jeong Song-i.

“Juyun and Shion are crying too, hurry!”

“Us too?!”

“While we are laughing and talking, your parents….”

“Is this a campfire at a retreat!!”

Gong Shi-on and Choi Ju-yoon burst into laughter.

I also felt somewhat light and my voice was louder than usual.

[Eva: LOL]

… No, is laughing also chatting?

“Would you like to have a company dinner? Today, eat without worrying about calories. “I’m shooting!”

“Wow!! Then, do you want to eat pork belly!!”

“Well, I like dakgalbi… ….”

“Joo Yoon-ah, at times like this, you should have pork belly and a glass of soju!”

“Sion! I’m still a minor!! And doesn’t soju go well with dakgalbi?”

“Oh, that’s what I heard. Okay, then let’s go eat dakgalbi.”

[Eva: Let’s go☆ I want beer]

“Producer, are the dakgalbi okay?!”

Is there a delicious dakgalbi restaurant near here?

For now, I nodded.

Oh, it’s been a while since I’ve had chicken ribs.

“Producer, you don’t have any money.”

Manager Jeong Song-i made a difference.

“I have this card.”

He took out a card from his pocket and showed it.

“That’s Dharma!”

“The rice eaten with company money is the most delicious.”

“That’s true, but unless the producer is shooting.”

“Ah, it’s the manager’s vibe, that kind of thing~”

“Producer too. Okay, I know a chicken rib restaurant near here, so let’s go there.”

Manager Jeong Song-i nagged me a lot in many ways, but

He also provided a lot of help in many ways.

Afterwards, I went to the Dakgalbit restaurant and poured alcohol into the glasses of Saint Kangeva and Gongsion to express my hard work.

Unfortunately, Choi Joo-yoon is a minor, so he replaced it with cider.

Since I am a senior in high school this year, we will not be old enough to drink together until next year.

“Producer, what are you going to drink? Since the producer followed first, I will follow too!”

Gong Si-ion said, holding the soju bottle and beer bottle together with his left and right hands.

I never thought an idol would personally pour me a drink.

“Here~ Please give me a bottle of bokbunja~”

“Yes~”

“Oh, producer!! Are you eating expensive food alone?!”

After all, having a company dinner with an idol is probably a rare opportunity.

At this point, I have to drink expensive alcohol that I can’t normally drink.

The lady at the Dakgalbi restaurant placed Bokbunja wine on our table.

“I’m always curious about bokbun, so just give me a bite!”

“Yes.”

Scream.

Gong Si-ion tilted the Bokbunju bottle and filled my glass.

After filling the glasses of all five people present, including me, with drinks,

“”Ta-da!””

Everyone clinked their glasses and made a toast.

“Kya~”

Gong Si On shot her like an old man and then frowned with a bright expression on her face.

… Eva Kang was expressionless even when drinking.

If anyone saw it, it seemed like he was forcing himself to drink it.

“Do you all eat in moderation? “I’m going to work starting tomorrow.”

“”Yes!””

“But Mr. Shion, what is your drinking capacity?”

“Three bottles!”

“… “Soju?”

“Yes, three bottles of soju!”

A woman has three bottles of soju… , It’s really strong.

I can’t handle drinking more than one bottle of soju.

There were some things I was weak at, though.

The restaurant lady who was cooking the dakgalbi said, “Eat the vegetables first.”

I picked up the sweet potato with chopsticks and ate it.

Hmm, it’s delicious.

I also took a bite of bokbunjaju.

Perhaps because it was an expensive liquor, the taste was good.

“Producer! “I’ll take a bite!!”

Gong Si-ion snatched my drink from my hand.

And then I poured the Bokbunjaju that was left in the glass into my mouth.

Wow, I indirectly kissed an idol!

It was childish, but my mood gradually improved.

***

-The #1 spot on Music On this week is the popular three-member girl group, Cursed Dolls! It’s already been #1 for 3 weeks in a row!

“Turn off the TV.”

The accommodation where Berries members—Joo Do-yeon, Go Na-kyung, Yang Hae-in, and Jin Hae-sol live together.

During the short 30-minute break, I watched Music On, the most popular music program.

“…… “When will we be able to win first place on Music On?”

“Hey, Go Na-kyung!!”

Joo Do-yeon screamed.

Go Na-kyung cringed at Joo Do-yeon’s voice.

“Are you jealous of the Cursed Dolls?! Uh?!”

“Oh, no, I wasn’t specifically talking about Cursed Dolls… ….”

“You know, Cursed Dolls, that bastard produced!!”

The four Berries abandoned producer Lim Boo-gil.

Because he is incompetent.

Because I don’t think they will be able to give themselves the honor of being first place.

But for some reason,

Cursed Dolls, which producer Lim Boo-gil planned after Berries, was a hit.

It was in the top 3 not only on music programs but also on various music charts.

Even though it was the time when Lucky Seven Entertainment’s current flagship idol group made a comeback, it was not delayed at all.

According to the news, the price of the event also increased rapidly.

As a big part of an idol’s income is events, they were spending money even though it had only been a month since their debut.

I heard that requests and casting calls for individual members are increasing.

Choi Joo-yoon, who sings well and looks good, works in corporate advertising where commercial songs are included.

Eva Kang, who has the best visuals among the three, but also gives the impression of being cool thanks to her expressionless expression, is a fashion model.

Gong Si-on, who has a slightly idiotic yet cheerful and humorous personality and excellent dancing skills, is in the entertainment broadcasting industry.

“Do-yeon, those Cursed Dolls didn’t become popular because Imbu-gil was good! “I heard they were originally kids!”

“Yes, Haein is right! It’s obvious that the pregnant bastard is holding on to the three dogs’ ankles right now! “I can grow even more!”

“We made a mess of it, and then all of a sudden, when I was in charge of the three of them, my producing skills improved? It does not make sense!”

“That’s right! I just happened to pick up some good kids! “You’re lucky, you’re lucky!!”

Tiriring—.

Jin Hae-sol’s smartphone rang.

The person calling,

He was a new producer.

Jinhae Sol held her smartphone in her hand,

She couldn’t press the receive button.

What on earth are you going to ask us to do this time?

Where on earth are you going to touch this time?

Meanwhile, the new producer’s outstretched hand passed by Jin Hae-sol’s head like a rolling film.

“What is it, Haesol, why aren’t you answering the phone? “Aren’t you the producer?”

“Uh, yeah…. Yes… …. I have to… ji… ….”

“Now that I think about it, Haesol, the producer calls me often these days. Are you two dating?”

“What, what?! “I-I’m with the producer?!”

Joo Do-yeon said, “What are you talking about?” He approached Jin Hae Sol.

“Haesol, are you finally escaping Mosol?”

“It’s not like that!!”

Jin Hae-sol shouted at Joo Do-yeon.

Immediately, “I’m sorry…” .” He apologized, but it was rare to see Jin Hae-sol this angry.

Knowing that, the three had no choice but to keep quiet.

“…… Haesol, the phone keeps ringing.”

“Oh, yes…” .”

Jin Hae-sol took a deep breath and pressed the receive button on his smartphone.

“Yes, producer….”

-Why don’t you accept it like this?

“Oh, that…” . Sorry, we were all checking out the kids on Music On…….”

-Yes, that can happen. Anyway, is Na-kyung next to you?

“Yes….”

-You two come to the office now.

“…… All right.”

-Your voice is small?

“Oh, I understand… !!”

Dtu-ddu—.

Jin Hae-sol just stared at the phone screen that was cut off unilaterally.

Out of the four Berryz members, the new producer only personally called Jin Hae-sol and Go Na-kyung.

“…… Na-kyung, you too, stay together for a long time.”

“And again, again…” ?”

A new producer whose level is getting higher and higher.

Jin Hae-sol and Go Na-kyung wanted to run away, but

I couldn’t run away.

If a proper producer had been in charge in the first place instead of Producer Lim Boo-gil, this wouldn’t have happened.

Producer Lim Boo-gil and new producers,

I just hated it.

***

I ran Cursed Dolls faithfully as I did in the game.

Of course, in the game, you just press the button and the idol goes to work on its own and comes back.

In reality, there were quite a few things to discuss with the other party who wanted to call Cursed Dolls.

Luckily, manager Jeong Song-i supported me well.

… Honestly, it was almost half her credit.

Squeak—.

The door to office 302 opened.

“I’ve been there… !”

It was Choi Ju-yoon. She has been appearing on a music radio show called [She Has Music at 10 AM].

… She had no idea that she would see in real life the name of the radio program that mainly sent idols who were also produced in the game.

“How was it? “It was my first live radio broadcast.”

“I was a little nervous… ! “But it was okay because the writer gave good instructions and the host was considerate!”

“I’m glad.”

“Are you worried…? ?”

“Of course, I’m in charge of Jooyun.”

“Heh, hehehe….”

Choi Joo-yoon lowered her head slightly and smiled with a red face, as if she was embarrassed.

Then she handed me a tumbler from her bag.

“It’s cold brew…” ! It rained all day yesterday… !!”

“Ah, yes, thank you. “I’ll drink it well.”

“Ma, enjoy your meal…” !!”

After her debut and promotions, around the time the members of Cussed Dolls got used to their jobs,

… He started giving me things.

[Name: Joo-yoon Choi]

[Current thought: Producer, you should only drink the coffee I brewed….]

These days, even more scary thoughts appear in the status window.

But honestly, the coffee tasted good.

Because it showed a new world to me who didn’t know anything about coffee.

Choi Joo-yoon’s skill at making coffee, which was a hobby, has improved significantly, and he is much better than most cafes.

“Producer!!”

Gong Shi-on entered office number 302 while running.

“Mr. Shion, don’t run because it’s dangerous.”

From noble mtl dot com

“I’m sorry! “But I want to give it to you before it gets cold!!”

You definitely said that cooking is your hobby, Gong Si-on.

… But recently, he packed my own lunch box and brought it to me.

I should actually take care of the idols’ meals, but it has become the opposite.

“Hurry up and eat!”

“Oh, yes…” .”

I unwrapped the wrapper and opened the lunch box lid.

In the [Idol Producing] Game, it was established that Gong Shi-on was really good at cooking.

I faced it as reality.

Before becoming a producer, when entertaining business partners, he was as extravagant as the lunch box he sometimes ordered.

I don’t know how they did it, but even the fried shrimp were crispy, as if they were made at a restaurant.

“Well, Mr. Shion….”

“Yes! “Is there something you don’t like?!”

“Oh, no, it’s really delicious…. It’s not hard to prepare lunch like this every day… ? “You’re busy with idol work these days.”

“I told you, cooking is my hobby! “I only do enough to not interfere with work, and if I don’t keep practicing, my skills will rust, but I can’t eat because I’m trying to control my calories, so I’m giving it to the producer!”

“I see, that’s right. Thank you.”

“What! Please eat a lot and bring us plenty of work!!”

[Name: Gong Si-on]

[Current thought: Mom said that if you want to catch a man, you have to catch his stomach first!]

After eating the lunch box that Gong Si-ion packed, I drank the coffee that Choi Joo-yoon made after the meal.

Eva Kang entered office 302 with faint footsteps.

“… ….”

Eva Kang extends her hand towards me and gives me a bag of chocolate pies.

Afterwards, a ding sound was heard on her smartphone.

[Eva: Dessert for a popular insider producer☆]

I would have been at ease if I had been more insensitive.

… All three Cursed Dolls members like me as a member of the opposite s*x.

This is a situation in which a man should be happy,

I wasn’t happy.

[Idol Producing] There were many narratives in the game where the idol felt romantic feelings toward the player, the producer.

So that the player can feel like he or she is dating a pretty idol.

However, no matter how much the game world is,

This is reality.

What happens when an active idol and the producer in charge date?

It cannot exist,

It shouldn’t have existed.

The producer in charge could not have caused something to end the life of an active idol on his own.

But we couldn’t blindly reject the efforts of the three people.

If you are heartbroken and have a mental breakdown, that is also a crisis situation.

I had to act as insensitive as possible.

… That’s right,

It was burdensome.
