168. I haven’t even watched this broadcast, so why do you think it’s already fun?

MS Entertainment Seocho-dong office building

When it comes to making a debut, MS Entertainment is counted among the top idol entertainment agencies that continue to hit the jackpot.

No one could argue that MS Entertainment President Choi Man-soo made an absolute contribution to its success.

Now, he resigned from the front line and left the practical work to the executive and was only in charge of approval.

As usual, Choi Man-soo was processing approval documents piled up on his desk.

Knock Knock

“boss. This is Jimin Kim.”

“Chief Kim? come in.”

“Oh~ Aren’t you the ace of our company, Jimin Kim? hahahahaha but what’s going on? It seems like you’ve been here for quite some time?”

Originally, Kim Ji-min was at an actor’s company, but President Choi Man-soo, who recognized his talent, brought him to MS Entertainment under unconventional conditions.

Afterwards, Kim Ji-min showed satisfactory performance, and Chairman Choi Man-soo also paid special attention to him within the company.

“I came here so quickly because I have something important to tell you.”

“hahahahaha, Chief Kim is always welcome. ruler! Sit down for a while.”

Choi Man-soo, who asked his secretary for two cups of coffee, asked Kim Ji-min.

“yes. What kind of request did you have to find me?”

Kim Ji-min was taken aback at President Choi Man-soo’s quick question, but he calmly opened his mouth because he was well aware of his straightforward personality.

“I got one piece of information. They said that sooner or later, a new variety show will be launched in the UK.”

“Oh yeah? Well, there it is, thanks to PD Son Jun-ik, it hit the jackpot one after another, so it’s worth it. But why?”

“It is said that Kyu-ha Song will appear in the new program.”

This time, on the contrary, Choi Man-soo flinched.

“Song Gyu-ha…? I thought I wouldn’t be able to appear in variety shows anymore. Hmm…”

Song Gyu-hara was a case that was incomprehensible even to Choi Man-soo, who prided himself on having experienced everything from the entertainment industry to prenatal battles.

Has there ever been an actor with such a great global influence in Korea, which is only a small country in the East when viewed from the global perspective?

Choi Man-soo, who was known for his great greed for talent, was Choi Man-soo, who was internally envious of Stella, who had an unpaid actor named Song Gyu-ha.

“What entertainment is it?”

“I haven’t figured out the details yet, but it is said to be a documentary that survives in remote places overseas.”

“What? Song Gyu-ha does that? Oh yeah···. You’re the one I don’t understand No matter what, the important thing is that Kyu-ha Song is appearing in variety shows… There must be a lot of greedy people.”

“It will be huge. Just because Song Kyu-ha appeared in it, the copyright would be sold all over the world, including the United States and France.”

“In that case, the faces of the guests who appeared together will naturally be known.”

“The return benefit will be enormous. This is a great opportunity to establish a bridgehead for overseas expansion. We, MS, should not miss this opportunity.”

“This information… must have spread quite a bit, right?”

“You will know it in quite a few places. Behind-the-scenes work is also going fast.”

“Are there any kids among us who would be able to appear there? Even if you just listen to the rough explanation, it seems very difficult…?”

“Yeah. There’s one kid that’s just right for you.”

“Oh yeah? Who is it?”

“Galaxy in Phrygia.”

“The Phrygian Galaxy? Would he voluntarily go there?”

“I will go. Ae-ra, who grew up deep in the mountains of Gangwon-do, is natural and familiar. Last time I saw him, he just beat a bug and caught a frog with his hands. That’s why it’s so adaptable. Also, I have been appealing to others that I have a desire for acting. He also studied English hard. More than anything···. Eunha is a big fan of Song Kyuha. If he says he will appear, I will follow him unconditionally.”

Choi Man-soo smiled and nodded as if satisfied with Kim Ji-min’s clear explanation.

“Eunhara… Galaxy. Not bad. And we can’t just stay in the idol version forever.”

Choi Man-soo lost his thoughts as he stroked his beard with his fingers.

“Is Secretary Kim out there?”

At the call of Choi Man-soo, the door opened and secretary Kim Min-hee, a former stewardess, entered.

“Did you call, boss?”

“What is your weekend schedule like?”

“I have a golf appointment with UK E&M Pansoo Kim.”

“It went well just in time. Let’s meet and talk with Director Kim Pan-soo.”

“thank you. boss.”

“Thank you. Anyway, I ask for this advanced information, and it is Kim Ji-min, the head of the department. It was truly a godsend that I brought Chief Kim to our company. Ha ha ha, wait a bit anyway.”

***

UK E&M 12th floor entertainment department conference room.

Today was the day of the production meeting of SOF (Survival Of The Fittest), which is being ambitiously prepared in the UK.

Each seat was attended by Yang Seong-il and Kim So-min CP, the main writer, and the director of programming.

Director Kim Pan-soo, who was sitting in the middle seat, looked around and opened his mouth.

“Are you all here?”

“Yes. It’s all here. chief.”

“Then let’s start the meeting. ah! Before that, turn all cell phones to silent. I’m just sick of the calls from all over the place.”

Those who were sitting at the words of Director Kim Pan-soo nodded their heads in sympathy.

When everyone took out their cell phones and changed them to silent mode, Yang Seong-il, who stood up from his seat, stepped forward for a presentation.

“hello. I will name it ‘Survival Of The Fittest’, which will be newly launched this time, or SOF for short. I am Yang Seong-il, who was in charge of directing SOF. Then, I will simply begin the presentation of the proposal.”

At Yang Seong-il’s wink, the lights in the meeting room were turned off, and the prepared presentation material was beamed onto the white screen.

“The SOF I planned is the first survival documentary in Korea, and the location will be the Yucatan Peninsula in Central America.”

Yang Seong-il’s presentation was very neat, as if he had prepared a lot.

As if to prove that the 5 years of assistant directing was not wasted, the planning intention, budget, and target audience were meticulously documented.

“The following are possible risks and countermeasures. The bonobono you see here is a very dangerous animal… Ah! sorry. I will pass on this.”

I made the mistake of showing a picture of a bonobono that I couldn’t erase because I was using the presentation template I used as a college student.

After many twists and turns, the presentation ended well.

“This concludes the presentation on SOF planning.”

clap clap clap clap

Director Kim Pan-soo also laughed and applauded as if he liked Yang Seong-il’s announcement.

“You’ve done very well preparing PD Yang Seong-il. I suffered. The idea is novel and the planning is very good. And the biggest problem, the production cost problem, was solved by PD Sung-il Yang. Did you directly invite Song Gyu-ha? What the hell did you do?”

At the words of Director Kim Pan-soo, the conference room was in an uproar.

The fact that Kyu-ha Song was appearing in SOF was openly spread, but it was because they did not know that Yang Seong-il directly conducted the casting.

In fact, there was no one in the industry who did not know that the broadcasting company was obsessed with serving Song Kyu-ha.

However, Stellar did not appear on any programs in the name of a break period.

This was not limited to Korea.

In ‘Le Grand Journal’, France’s top talk show, several times, Kyu-ha Song sent a love call, but the appearance was eventually cancelled, and ‘The Graham Norton Show’, which is gaining great popularity in the United States, also refused to appear.

Ironically, because of this rejection, the broadcasting company became more frantic about serving Kyu-ha Song.

In order to somehow obtain information about Gyuha, it was frequent to target acquaintances or lobby Stella, the agency.

As much as that, being able to recruit Song Kyu-ha in the current situation was no different from winning the lottery from the point of view of a broadcaster.

“I think my sincerity worked. I showed my eagerness as a human to human being. Of course, we have maintained our close friendship through ‘No and So Joy’ and ‘Song Table Pocha’. You are also my lifesaver. In any case, after meeting in person and persuading with sincerity, I was able to confirm actor Song Kyu-ha’s appearance.”

When Yang Sung-il finished his speech, the conference room erupted in louder applause than ever before.

clap clap clap

“cool! Yang PD!”

“You did a great job!”

Director Kim Pan-su, who stared at Yang Seong-il with a hearty smile, asked him.

“good. Now the most important problem remains. Has the composition of the rest of the members been finalized?”

There was a sense of tension in the conference room.

Is there anyone here who has not received an invitation from an entertainment agency with whom he is close?

Along with the news that Song Kyu-ha’s appearance on SOF was confirmed, they must have received more than 10 calls a day even if they couldn’t do it.

Because there was a relationship that couldn’t be ruthlessly rejected, I would secretly say to Yang Sung-il, “That friend said he was fine,” and “That actor really likes documentaries about wildlife and survival.”

No matter how much their rank or seniority was higher than Seong-Il, the person in charge of the program was definitely Seong-Il.

Therefore, it was Yang Seong-il’s own right to recruit.

In addition, UK E&M is not a terrestrial broadcasting station, but a comprehensive broadcasting station operated by a private company.

There were a lot of people who came here and there with career positions, so it was not a group with a strict hierarchy.

“Yes. We finalized the composition with 5 members that fit the standard as much as possible.”

“Tell me.”

“First of all, the first is actress Jeong Seol-ah. Han Jeong-hee, managing director of Stella, made a special request. And since Jeong Seol-ah doesn’t consume much image, it’s true that there are more benefits to be gained.”

Everyone nodded their heads as if agreeing with Yang Sung-il’s words.

Just having Song Kyu-ha on the show was a big thank you to Stella, so that request had to be granted unconditionally.

Moreover, since Jeong Seol-ah was never enough, everyone was convinced.

“Next is the Phrygian Galaxy.”

“Ohh… it’s unexpected. It’s a girl group, so can you go there and survive?”

“My friend Eunha grew up in the countryside of Gangwon-do when she was young, and there are rumors that she is easy-going and smart, unlike her appearance, so it seems to be enough.”

“Hmm.. okay. next?”

“Yeah. Next is Maseokdo, a singer from the Special Forces. I got a big score for being a special forces soldier. The fourth is comedian Min Bong-gi. I needed a character to play the role of mood maker, so I recruited Min Bong-gi, who is considered a trend these days. And the last member is…”

Everyone’s eyes focused on Yang Seong-il’s mouth.

“The last member is actor Cha Kyung-seok.”

“her. Cha Kyung-seok? The nobleman is coming?”

Everyone’s eyes widened when the name of Cha Kyung-seok, who had a deep relationship with Kyu-ha through [In the Name of the Devil], was called.

It wasn’t as much as Kyu-ha, but it was because Cha Kyung-seok was also called a national actor and famous for his face being hard to see outside of movies.

“Yeah. Rather, actor Cha expressed his intention to appear first. As I happened to be the mental support of the members, I needed a senior level who could coordinate the relationship, and that was a good thing.”

“Hey… It’s not some kind of Avengers, and the members aren’t kidding, are they?”

After listing the names of the members scheduled to appear on SOF, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the majority of people who are in charge of the entertainment industry have gathered.

“I haven’t even watched this broadcast, so why do you think it’s already fun?”

No one in the conference room could disagree with someone’s murmur.
