Korean Entertainment: Perfect Cheating Life

In May 2007, Kakao, a company owned by Kim So-min, launched the social software Kakao talk.

Once launched, this app immediately received unprecedented enthusiastic response and wide dissemination in the Peninsula and overseas markets due to its extremely convenient communication function.

She even punched and kicked the line under her biological father Four Star.

As the image ambassador of Kakao Talk, Kim So Min has since become a frequent visitor on the Kakao Talk home page.

Kakao's staff is mainly young people. The good office environment, no overtime, two days off a week, and high salaries for both men and women make this small company an ideal company for many job seekers.

At the same time, at this year's Baeksang Arts Awards in South Korea, Kim So-min won the Popular Actress and Best Supporting Actress awards for her outstanding performance in the movie "Miracle in Cell No. 7".

Then, she received another exciting piece of news - SM Entertainment finally made a profit!

She almost cried with joy!

The 2006 financial report shows that SM company finally has a positive profit!

Teacher Li Xiuman sighed and said that after the artists' commissions increased significantly, they worked harder than before.

However, Kim Min-soo told Kim So-min that the main reason for the profit in the financial report was that Teacher Lee Soo-man had not embezzled money in the past two years.

amount……

Ah this.

Forget it, as long as there is a profit, Kim So Min doesn’t care about that!

Despite the need to deduct employee salaries and pay royalties to artists and composers, the company still made a considerable profit.

Kim So-min was so happy that he immediately used the money he had recently earned to buy another building.

Although Kim So Min does not have any advertising endorsements and is only active in fashion magazines, her income is not that high.

But she has so many elders, and her parents' elders gave her a lot of red envelopes.

SM's performance is pretty good again.

This year, TVXQ's album "O" sold over 200 million copies. They also held their first Japan tour and made a ton of money.

The new song "U" released by the new group SJ became a hit in Asia. The group was originally scheduled to be a limited-edition group with an elimination system, but due to strong opposition from the majority of fans ELFs (fairies) and multiple sit-in demonstrations, the company finally decided to change it to a fixed group.

Is the combined team so good?

Kim So Min heard that in order to prevent their group from disbanding, the fairies wanted to raise funds to buy SM stocks.

Of course, fans definitely cannot buy stocks, after all, all the scattered shares are with Kim So Min.

She couldn't quite understand the feelings of her fans, but she still respected their actions.

Even Lee Soo-man gave up his plans for the group because of their protests. To some extent, the fairies also made Kim So-min see the power of fans' support for their idols.

At the end of 07, the "girl group" trainees headed by Kim Taeyeon officially changed their name to Girls' Generation and began preparing for their debut.

Before, these trainee sisters were simply called “girl group” by the company.

However, after the name was changed from Girl Group to Girls' Generation, the sisters looked even more unhappy.

When teacher Li Xiuman announced the names, the sisters whose faces were filled with joy froze.

Li Xiuman encouraged them: "Come on, kids!"

He walked away leisurely, leaving a bunch of beautiful girls in the practice room with gloomy faces.

Someone quietly complained: "Not even as good as a girl group."

Li Shungui: "Everyone else has a cool English name, why do we have a Peninsula name?"

Choi Sooyoung: "I also want a cool English name like SJ senior."

Taeyeon had just become the captain and couldn't speak freely. Her pretty face was full of resistance.

"Girls' Generation sounds great!"

Kim So Min patted his chest and comforted them, "Ouni, think about TVXQ."

"They can still be called TVXQ in 30 years."

"Sisters, think about Super Junior in 30 years. The brothers won't be super boys by then, they will be super uncles!"

Her comfort made the sisters visibly more depressed.

Lin Yuna's pretty face fell: "Somin! After 30 years, you are not a girl anymore!"

"Miyane!"

Kim So Min made a zipper-locking gesture with her mouth.

The other sisters laughed hard.

Later, Dong Shen and SJ’s brothers found out the name of their debut group and laughed even more exaggeratedly.

Jin Xiche took the lead and laughed.

But he is the team leader and no one dares to mess with him.

Girls’ Generation rolled their eyes, angry but not able to say anything.

Yeseong: “gae——”

Kim So Min knew the answer to this question, so she continued, "(gae) Bastard!"

The brothers and sisters looked horrified, but Kim So-min looked innocent, "What's wrong? Didn't Yeseong brother say that?"

Several SJ members present broke out in cold sweats.

Yesung was confused and had his mouth covered by a group of people.

Taeyeon screamed in a high note very much like a lead singer: “Chehbaiaaaaah!”

"I can't stand it anymore! Stay away from the child, ahhhhh!"

Zheng Xiuyan looked at this group of unreliable men with the same eyes as she would look at non-recyclable garbage.

Dong Hai panicked: "You can't learn this, you really can't learn this!"

Li Xu was even more anxious: "Zhao Min, forget about him!"

Yeseong: “Ah… that’s not what I wanted to say.”

His weak explanation was drowned out by the loud voices of others.

Kim So-min was helpless.

Adults are so prone to double standards... The brothers were clearly talking happily, but they just didn't let her speak.

– – –

Even though the older sisters in Girls' Generation were dissatisfied with the group's name, they still made their debut under the name.

The anti-fan behavior is rampant in this era.

Many fans of Dong Shen and SJ brothers are very young. After their debut, several sisters were inevitably rejected and attacked by fans, and experienced hardships such as the Black Sea.

Fortunately, the ending was good and their tears and efforts were not in vain.

The girls finally became "Queens". They were listed on the White Paper of Korean Wave and became the most popular girl group on the peninsula.
