When I Opened My Eyes I Was a Superstar

Chapter 202

# 203

Pandemonium (3)

Naturally, today was ‘Girls’ first visit to the broadcasting station. Everything was amazing. With eyes full of curiosity, I wanted to see Senior Obin as well as Senior Obin’s waiting room.

The girls, who glanced inside without realizing it, saw Valentine in a colorful costume getting ready inside.

The girls also knew that the people who were sharing the waiting room with Obin were Valentines who were debuting on the same day as them.

However, even though they were rookies debuting together today, they were not all the same.

Unlike the girls that no one even knew existed, Valentine already had a significant number of fans. Ara Entertainment was a difficult place to become a trainee, and as if it was natural, fans followed the trainees who made their debut there.

Since they had already made their debut after going through fierce competition within the agency, singers who debuted at Ara Entertainment had a lot of pride in ‘debuting under Ara Entertainment’.

It was also true that he had skills.

However, although it would be nice if this pride ended only at the level of confidence, many people mistakenly thought that they had already become stars because they enjoyed considerable attention and popularity before their debut and were guaranteed a certain level of popularity afterward.

This was exactly the case with the Valentine members.

Moreover, they came as trainees when Ara Entertainment was fully established. Therefore, from the time of their debut, they received support for lodging in a luxury villa and maintenance expenses, which are difficult for trainees from other agencies to enjoy.

So, in terms of living, he was enjoying the same lifestyle as most singers.

Dahye, the youngest of the girls, unknowingly averted her eyes when she made eye contact with Valentine’s Yeri Han.

This was because Han Yeri’s eyes as she looked at the door were so cold.

‘Still, I should have said hello instead of avoiding eye contact... ugh...’

Da-hye said, ‘What should I do?’ It was time to look towards Yunji, the girls’ leader, with concern.

Yunji, who said she had come to say hello to Obin, was facing Valentine’s manager.

“I don’t have one right now.”

Valentine’s manager answered in an indifferent tone.

“Oh well, I’ll see you later!”

Yunji was taken aback for a moment, but she answered clearly as she had learned.

“What...”

Even when Valentine’s manager answered carelessly by telling her to take care of it, Yunji was not embarrassed and bowed her head. Afterwards, I told the members lined up in the back to go back.

Since it was their first time, the girls should have come with their manager to greet them, but the manager had gone to say hello to the producer of Song of Life.

As the girls closed the door and left, Yeri Han looked away from the door again and looked in the mirror.

“Noisy.”

It wasn’t that I didn’t like Da-hye, who I met. I wasn’t interested enough to even think about that. I just didn’t like how busy the waiting room became for a while.

“Who is it?”

A member of Valentine with pink hair who was using her cell phone next to Yeri Han asked as if she was talking to herself.

“Do you think they are debuting today? Those.......girls?”

“Girls? “Is that the girls’ name?”

“huh. “It will happen.”

The pink head frowned slightly at the manager’s answer.

“Eh.... You look very plain... Did you come from the countryside? “Where do you belong?”

The manager looked embarrassed at the pink haired question.

“Where was it...”

“My brother is the manager, what if I don’t know anything about that?”

The manager looked a little embarrassed when the pink-haired man scolded him, and then said as if he had remembered something.

“The manager is coming to the center...”

“Haha. “Isn’t today a day where these friends are the main characters?”

Director Seo Jung-won responded cheerfully to Director Jin Kook-seon’s words. The Valentine members went to the designated spot to take a group photo and stood there.

Valentine’s manager quickly opened the camera app on his phone and took a picture.

It was an hour before the live broadcast of ‘Life Song’ started.

***

Even though it was his debut performance, Valentine had the title of ‘Special Rookie’ and was scheduled to sing one and a half songs right before the first place candidate’s performance. It was super special treatment.

This was one of the reasons why fans from other fandoms scoffed at the special treatment given to celebrities under Ara Entertainment whenever they debuted.

However, it was able to clearly receive the spotlight and was clearly imprinted on the public. It was a choice worth risking a bit of ridicule.

Unlike Valentine’s Day, which was relatively leisurely because the stage was at the back, the girls’ waiting room was extremely busy an hour before the broadcast.

This was because it was the stage right after the opening. The time given to the girls was only about 2 minutes. The title song ‘Our Time’ had to be edited to fit the assigned stage time.

Debut stage. We had to work hard to imprint the name ‘Girls’ on viewers and leave a strong impression within a short period of time.

“you can do it! can do! “I can do it!”

“Ugh. I’m so nervous I feel like I’m going to throw up. “Is it okay to vomit on stage?”

“real? “Hey, go to the bathroom now and just throw up.”

“Guys. You guys are a girl group now. “Let’s not say such things out loud!”

The members nodded at leader Yunji’s words.

Of course, the representative, Jeong Hye-seong, was also present in the girls’ waiting room. The atmosphere was different from the visit of Director Seo Joong-won. CEO Jeong Hye-seong seemed like an uncle to the current members.

“Lose self-confidence. “Everyone, calm down!”

CEO Jeong Hye-seong, who said such things, was equally nervous.

“Wow... But the costume is really pretty.”

“Oh, I like it too.”

The members who all changed into stage costumes looked like ‘girls’. They wore blouses with lots of frills and hot pants or skirts that showed off their individual personalities.

The part where the ‘difference in money’ was most evident was in clothing.

The cheap stage costumes were noticeably lacking in detail. However, the stage costumes the girls currently wore were comparable to luxury goods.

This was because Do-wook specifically suggested the use of the investment, saying that it would be a good idea to use his investment money to improve the quality of not only the album but also the stage set costumes.

‘I guess this is where the difference begins...’

CEO Jeong Hye-seong had not thought about spending money on clothes. However, after investing money in costumes, the movements of the same choreography became more visible and looked more luxurious.

CEO Jeong Hye-seong realized once again that there was a need to invest clearly in idols where being seen was important.

It was time to go out on stage.

The members and staff gathered in a circle to shout fighting.

“There’s probably no one watching Life Songs to see you guys today. I have no interest or expectations from you. but.”

CEO Jeong Hye-seong spoke calmly and seriously.

“That’s why it’s a better opportunity. Let’s surprise them. uh? “Let’s show what kind of girls you are!”

“yes-!”

“yes!”

The girls shouted loudly at CEO Jeong Hye-seong’s words.
