Chapter 411

Edm Entertainment also runs an entertainment agency, but its main focus is content investment. It directly invests and buys shares, and also connects agencies with investors.

In Pure Girls Entertainment, Pure Girls Entertainment, not Edm Entertainment, but Oh Taek-gyu invested with his own money.

There were some misunderstandings along the way.

When he said that he would invest 3 billion won, CEO Seong Su-han of Pure Entertainment widened his eyes.

“Are you really saying that you are investing such a large amount of money?”

Jeong Se-wook, head of investment team at Edm Entertainment, gave an explanation.

“Our president said that a high-ranking person at the OTK Company headquarters directed the investment.”

“No, are you high?”

Of course, the first person that comes to mind is one person in the head office of OTK Company.

“Stand, please… … ?”

“That’s the hope. He asked me to tell him that OTK is investing directly.”

“Ugh! OTK!”

CEO Seongsu Han could not close his open mouth.

Who can call himself OTK, other than the CEO of OTK Company?

“Damn, why is he so small like us… … No, are you investing in a small agency?”

3 billion won is a huge amount that is larger than the corporate value for small and medium-sized agencies, but OTK Company makes tens of trillions of dollars in investment.

Why would such a huge company invest in such a small and medium-sized entertainment company rather than the top 3?

“He asked him to tell him that he was a huge fan of Pure Girls. He said that this song is good, so if you work hard, you will do well.”

President Seongsu Han opened his mouth once again as his chin fell out.

Oh my gosh! Jinhoo Kang is a Pure Girls fan!

Jeong Se-wook, head of the investment team, continued.

“The investment condition is to spend 3 billion won entirely for Pure Girls. Even if there is a full loss, there is no obligation to return the investment, and we will not hold you responsible. However, you must disclose the accounting books to us on a quarterly basis, and you must take legal responsibility in case of embezzlement or breach of trust. Again, it’s something he cares about and takes care of.”

Until now, there are not only one or two people who fought against Kang Jin-hu and her life ended. Even though President Seongsu Han knew about it, he did not have the courage to take his money away.

“But, as you know, we do a lot of cash transactions… … .”

“I know that well. As long as you don’t do things that cause problems, there will be no problems. Ah! You said that you want to move from the dorm first.”

“Okay. I will move it right away.”

President Seong Su-han called the Pure Girls members together.

All four girls looked nervous at the sudden call from the boss. It has been 2 weeks since the 3rd album started, but there was no reaction.

Appearing on cable TV a few times and performing at shopping malls or local festivals are all. If it doesn’t show up again, won’t it be disbanded?

“I have an important announcement.”

As if everyone had an intuition to disband, some members burst into tears.

But the president’s announcement was completely unexpected.

“CEO Kang Jin-hoo is your fan, so he made the investment himself.”

At those words, all the members looked at each other with bewildered expressions.

“If you are CEO Kang Jin-hoo… … .”

“Isn’t he super rich?”

“Wow! Are you really our fan?”

The members did not realize how huge this was. However, Earl, who had led the team through all kinds of hardships for two years after his debut, was different.

“No, that’s absurd… … .”

It is no exaggeration to say that Kang Jin-hoo is the most famous Korean in the world. Is it true that there are many foreigners who do not know the name of the Korean president, but there is no one who does not know Kang Jin-hoo?

Earl was surprised by the unexpected luck.

She clasped her hands tightly and wept.

‘Thank you, CEO Kang Jin-hoo.’

[(Exclusive coverage) Jinhoo Kang, CEO of OTK Company, directly invested 3 billion won in Pure Entertainment! Turns out, I’m a fan of Pure Girls?]

An internet newspaper reporter who happened to hear this news quickly wrote an article and posted it.

Countless entertainment articles pour in every day. If it was just an article about Pure Girls, people wouldn’t have paid much attention.

However, the person who made the investment was none other than Kang Jin-hoo.

The article was uploaded to the portal main page within 10 minutes of being uploaded, and the link spread quickly.

“Did you see the article? Jinhoo Kang said he invested in a girl group!”

“You’re a Pure Girls fan!”

“She is a famous idol, did I not know?”

“uh! It’s been two years since her debut. How did Jin-hoo Kang find these kids?”

“Even if you’re busy, you seem to have time to do it.”

In less than an hour, it recorded 5 million views, and overtook the divorce news of a top celebrity, taking the first place in the real sword.

Broadcasters were also outraged.

“What the hell are the Pure Girls doing?”

“Which agency do you belong to?”

“I don’t know who they are, but try casting them before you get caught in other entertainment stations!”

When one of the teams on the schedule made a funk, the person in charge of SBC’s Music Box immediately casted him and decided to appear.

Even if experts use all kinds of marketing, it is difficult to get a name out of an idol. In particular, it was not easy for an idol in their second year of debut to make an issue.

However, with the news that Jinhoo Kang invested, he was reborn as an idol that everyone knows!

– Haha, Kang Jin-hoo ducking out~

-It’s a girl group that the president pushes!

– Hey! If OTK Company’s capital pushes it, it will soon enter the global market.

-Girl group raised by the president ^^

– It’s really spring again after the earthquake. I thought she was a cold-blooded investor without blood or tears, but she must have been a girl group nerd.

-I’m not old enough to like girl groups~ I understand everything.

-Isn’t her model girlfriend angry and throwing fish and chips?

– lol Royal Fish and Chips~

-If you know Im Jin-yong and Chae Won-tae, they can all be uncle fans~

– Don’t go to Kang-hyung in the future. There are no bad people in the world who like girl groups.

-Hyung, therefore, I will also go all-in to Pure Girls from today.

– So who’s the first pick?

– The more I look at her, the cuter she gets~

After the broadcast of SBC Music Box.

Pure Girls became the No. 1 contract for all over-the-air music shows.

It is not surprising that a celebrity can quickly become famous when he introduces a specific product or person to the media or SNS.

Therefore, SNS celebrities are called influencers in the sense of ‘influencers’ (in China, they are called Wang Hong), and recently, marketing using this has been actively conducted.

I’m not a celebrity either, but I’m a celebrity. In that respect, it can be said that he is an influencer enough.

Still, it’s going to have such a huge ripple effect!

Pure Girls, a so-called “unheard of” girl group until a few days ago, has now become a girl group that no one knows about.

The ranking of ‘Catch Me Please’, which I couldn’t tell if it was somewhere at the end of the Mango Chart, also climbed to 3rd place.

“Good! With this momentum, we could be number one tomorrow.”

It’s been a while since I felt sad that I didn’t know what I had invested in. With the heart of a true fan, they are only cheering for Pure Girls to do well.

As I stared at him, Taek-gyu muttered as he looked out at the garden for nothing.

“When I see the green weeds, I can feel the radiant beauty of life.”

“… … .”

Seeing you suddenly say something crazy, I think I knew what I was doing wrong.

Taehyung patted my shoulder.

“Why don’t you just take this opportunity to become a Pure Girls fan?”

“… … The people of the country already know that.”

Now I can’t say no. It’s easy to say you like someone, but it’s not easy to say you don’t like someone.

If I deny the truth, Pure Girls will be lying. Looking back, this is also what made me misunderstood.

So, in the end, this is all because of Oh Taek-gyu.

Reporters rushed to the company and pushed the microphones.

“Is it true that you are a Pure Girls fan?”

“How much do you like it?”

“Did you invest because you were a fan?”

It is a familiar situation for reporters to come and ask questions. If there is one difference, up to now, reporters from the political, economic and social departments have come to me. This time, he is a reporter for the entertainment department. There was also a reporter for an entertainment program that you could recognize by looking at his face.

Perhaps this scene will also appear on programs such as ‘Celebrity News’.

Reporter Lee Myung-hoon, a former comedian, shouted loudly.

“Who is CEO Kang Jin-hoo’s first pick? People are curious!”

“… … .”

Why do people wonder who my first pick is?

Actually, I don’t even know who the Pure Girls members are… … .

“Are you Lee?”

At least I know Lee because Taek-gyu showed me how to do it and explained it. He said the kid was cute.

I only thought so for a moment, but the reporters from the entertainment department did not miss my expression.

“Did you admit that the first pick was Earl?”

“Then who is the second pick?”

“What do other members think?”

“Tell me!”

Anyway, for the Pure Girls, it must have been a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, right? It’s up to them to catch it and not catch it.

I sighed inwardly as I recalled the threat disguised as Oh Taek-gyu’s request.

“Please give Pure Girls a lot of support.”

What the hell is this, the articles have been pouring out for days?

The issue has also spread abroad. The main screens of sites that introduce Korean entertainment information are covered with pictures of Pure Girls.

Foreign media re-examined Korea’s idol culture and the Hallyu craze, and interest in idols active abroad has increased significantly.

The industry was hoping that this would lead to full-fledged investment in Hallyu content and the growth of the cultural industry. In fact, many investment companies have considered investing in Enter shares.



Senior Sangyeop, who is quick-witted, explained this job.

“Entertainment stocks have good growth potential, but risks are too high. He’s a jackpot if it pops up, and it’s a rip off if it doesn’t. Another problem is that most of those risks are human risks. Trees with many branches do not have good wind, these days there are more than 10 groups with many members, and it is a time of raging rage. Buying and hitting just one of them will cause a riot.”

I nodded.

“That’s why value investors don’t like entertainment very much.”

Even if it’s not just drunk driving, assault, or sex crimes, stock prices fluctuate when only rumors of a relationship or personality problems break out.

This is the biggest reason why enter stocks are undervalued. Entertainment companies also enter various businesses to spread these risks.

Taek-gyu, who heard the story, tilted his head.

“But when you think about it, isn’t it strange? In the past, when Japanese pop culture was opened, it was said that all Korean pop culture would be eaten by Japan, but the result was the opposite.”

It was about 20 years ago that Japanese pop culture opened up in earnest.

At that time, Japan was the world’s second-largest economy and produced cultural contents appropriate to the size of the economy. Like other industries, the perception that Korea was 10 years behind Japan was dominant in the cultural industry.

Surprisingly, however, Japanese popular culture did not have much power in Korea. While Japanese idols remained in the domestic market, Korean idols spread throughout Asia.

Conversely, this is due to the difference in market size.

Japan, with a population of over 100 million and high incomes, can make enough profits just by focusing on its domestic market. However, in Korea, where domestic demand is relatively small, they hurried to enter overseas markets early, thinking that overseas expansion was the only way to survive.

Thanks to this, Korean idols have been very popular in China, Japan, and Southeast Asia, and recently, the Korean Wave is also creating a wave in Western countries such as the United States and Europe.

Looking at this, Korean idols are amazing.

What happened after I was forced to duck out (?) because of Taek-gyu Oh, and everyone I met talked about Pure Girls.

The older, middle-aged bosses said with a smile.

“I’m watching Pure Girls well. I became interested because the representative liked it, and the more I looked at it, the more I fell in love with it.”

“haha! I also joined the Pure Girls fan club. A child named Solar is very kind. This is my 1st pick. Heh heh heh!”

“How about going to the next Pure Girls concert?”

“… … .”
