Assistant Manager Kim Hates Idols - Chapter 125
Only Krnovel
| Episode 125. Dispatch work (1)
Last night, I turned on the live broadcast in the company conference room and gave an explanation.
I know this isn’t a common response, but considering the circumstances, I think this is the best approach.
If we left it to UA, it seemed like we would just repeat the same old story of Spark’s countless controversies without properly explaining any of them and just letting them grow.
Because of the entertainment industry’s tendency to nitpick after nit after clarifying one thing, it didn’t seem like the situation would die down with just one clarification.
It was not polite to the royal family that was currently appearing to drag out an unpleasant matter.
So after much preparation, I proved my innocence for a whole hour… … .
“Wouldn’t it be better for you to try college again?”
“Are you telling me to drop out now and take the CSAT?”
“That’s not what I meant. Don’t you feel bad?”
… … I am being pressured by some people including Choi Je-ho and the company staff to ‘It’s not too late, try to take the college entrance exam again.’
Everyone is pretending to be good to me and kicking me out. Why did they say they’d accept me into the team for a long time?
I expected that public opinion would gather around provocative keywords, but I never thought that people around me would gather around as well. Why are you guys being drawn to the aggro that was created to draw others?
And wouldn’t you feel sorry? I’m the one who feels the most sorry? I’m shedding tears of blood?
≫ I knew you were smart, Lee Wol-ah
S University… … on time… …
No, but I don’t have money for this… … Ha
└ It’s really funny that the chat window froze as soon as this story came out
≫ Losing S University was too big to be happy about the fact that my child did not receive any special treatment.
≫ XX I’m going crazy because of all the wrongs
I got a study room pass that I earned through grades, and then I got ripped off.
What the heck is that
≫ But if you have a hard time at home, the director comes out
└ If you are a freshman, you come out after the director has paid the tuition. So you have to pay the tuition first, but you haven’t paid it.
└ If both parents work, why can’t you do that?
└ 1. Not all workers earn 400-500 per month. 2. He said he became independent as soon as he turned 20 because he had no support from home. The end

└ 111111 without any room for refutation
└ I’m going with energy
└ I’m going to get energy 22
… … No. I cancel what I said I regret the most.
I surrendered to my fate early on, but my fans suffered over my situation as if it were their own.
It’s touching that the Republic of Korea is united through college entrance exams.
“There’s no point in trying again. That day was the day my luck with taking pictures went downhill.”
“When you say it like that, it doesn’t seem like a joke… … .”
“Because I’m not joking.”
All my luck in life went down the drain on the day of the CSAT. It would be shameless to hope for another miracle like that.
Besides, if I go back to college, I’ll probably just get a 2.0 GPA again.
If you work part-time and study at the same time, you’ll lose both your qualifications and grades, and if you apply to Hanpyeong Industries, which offers a starting salary of 35 million won for liberal arts students, you’ll end up ruining your life.
It’s not that I don’t have any regrets.
No, it is not enough to say that I am not without regrets.
Going to college was the first achievement I had in my life. It was also the first experience that gave me hope that I could do it.
How can it be okay if you lose it? It’s just something that can’t be undone, so you have to accept the reality.
‘You graduated from S University, right? Then, shouldn’t Manager Kim be able to do this on his own?’
‘Manager Kim is so smart. I guess I should go back to school.’
… … I’m sick of hearing the same thing. What the heck, why did that guy keep picking on me over every little thing when he didn’t even help me go to college?
I should have gotten a fortune teller’s license and gone to a securities firm, even if it meant going into debt.
But considering that most of Hanpyeong Industries employees were highly educated, I think the situation would have been similar if they had gone to other companies.
Anyway, the atmosphere with Parte wasn’t completely sorted out, but at least now there was no one openly cursing Spark and me. That alone was enough.
“There are more important things right now.”
Today was the deadline for the list of participants in the position battle to be handed over to the royal family.
The third competition of the A Royal Family will be held as a position battle.
Each group selects representative members based on the three positions of vocal, dance, and rap, and then two representative members of each group are randomly arranged into a group to form a unit.
The competition will be held in a 2:2:2 format, and the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place will be decided by the number of audience votes, and bonus points will be awarded in the final 4th round depending on the ranking obtained at that time.
The reason I did my best in the previous contests was to get the production costs for the third contest.
Now that I had won first place in the second round and had already earned production funds, I didn’t want to waste energy on the third round.
Anyway, it will be difficult for Spark to win, and my priority is the safe and healthy growth of Spark guys.
Survival programs require a tremendous amount of physical strength. You have to prepare for the stage from A to Z in a short period of time, and because the preparation period is short, you have to use as much practice time as possible.
It would have been much less expensive if we could have received support in various areas such as planning, arrangement, and choreography creation, but UA did not have the capacity for that.
Thanks to that, the six of us literally had to grind our bones to get here.
At this point, it wouldn’t be strange if someone were to spread out. Before that happened, Spark needed to take some time to regroup.
“Kiyeon, you haven’t been to the orthopedic surgeon even once last month or this month, right? Leave the dance position to Choi Je-ho and come back this round to get some manual therapy.”
“I’m fine. I’m not in much pain.”
“You’ll be a hit anyway when the random play dance comes out. Don’t worry and go.”
“Who cares about that?”
I gave him a lot of advice in advance, but he had a lot to say. I had no intention of listening to him, so I just let it go in one ear and out the other.
“Then what about the vocal position…?”
Park Joo-woo asked.
That’s already a concern. Originally, I was planning on leaving.
I wanted to give the main vocalists a break, but the situation became ambiguous after the controversy.
“Didn’t you say last time that you were thinking of leaving?”
“It was like that, but now the situation is a bit… … . I wonder if it would be a good idea for me to leave.”
As I was thinking about it, Jeong Seong-bin thought for a moment and then said.
“How about you go out as planned, hyung?”
“I?”
“Yes. I think you probably have a picture in mind at first.”
It’s not that great of a picture, I just wanted to give you guys a break.
“You’ll do well, hyung. I trust you!”
Well, that’s fine.
No matter how I look at it… … .
≫ I told you that I’m really greedy for that new X broadcast
It’s obvious that he has vibranium plywood on his face.
≫ ???: Ah, I can’t stand the buzzㅋㅋㅋㅋ
… … I think I might hear a sound.
But since I’m in a position where I’m being pushed around, I’ll make this level of sacrifice. I’ll show off the steel vocal cords I’ve honed over time.
“Then what’s left is rap.”
Jeong Seong-bin said.
The official rapper for this team is Lee Chung-hyun. Choi Je-ho and Kang Ki-yeon are known to have received separate rap training, but at least they have never shown it at official events.
But, asking Lee Cheong-hyun, who burned brightly and worked hard until the second round, to go out and rap this time seems a bit…
“If it’s rap, then of course I have to go!”
Lee Cheong-hyeon shouted with shining eyes. He was even clenching his fists tightly.
“You should think about the final competition song in advance. Considering that you’ll be working on the song, wouldn’t it be better to take a break from this competition?”
The final competition preparation material was a new song. Since it was a stage that required preparation time, it was announced along with the 3rd competition format.
I reminded him of the existence of the final contest again in case he had forgotten.
But Lee Cheong-hyeon’s attitude was firm.
“Hyung, do you remember that we cut out all the rap parts during the second round?”
“huh.”
“So, did I have a really hard time singing after such a long time? Did I get scolded a lot by Joo Woo hyung and cry a lot?”
“I……?”
Park Joo-woo was feeling very wronged next to him, but Lee Cheong-hyeon didn’t care.
“I’m really good at rapping, so you must have really regretted it. You must have sighed. You must have still wanted to rap.”
“… … .”
“Even if it’s a rap battle, if you don’t let me go, I’ll be upset, right? I’ll cry? My eyes will be swollen and I’ll have to hold an ice pack until the final rehearsal.”
“Stop it. I’ll let you go.”
“Excellent choice!”
Lee Cheong-hyeon raised his thumb. He was so tired, even though he had only just decided on the participants.
And a few days later, the partners for the participants who had been chosen with difficulty were delivered.

My luck with my crew wasn’t very good.
When I was a high school student, I didn’t really participate, but when it came time to review the student records, I would add my spoon, saying that I had something to contribute. When I was a college student, I spent time realizing how worthless the human conscience is.
Because of my excessive part-time job, I had to be selective and focus, so I chose a group project because I thought no one should be harmed because of me, but in four years, no one in my group chose a project.
What about the military?
Even in a place where everyone was having fun together, there was some pass-by work that went unnoticed.
I was finally able to escape from group life, but the place I arrived at was Hanpyeong Industrial Complex.
The team leader who takes my achievements and promotes me, the organization that is falling apart, the manager who gives me a paper cup while I am bailing out water from a shipwrecked ship, saying that sailors these days have it easy…
Today, I have a new crew member.
I swallowed hard and headed to the third room I was guided to.
Let’s be strong, Kim Yi-wol. Group projects like X are familiar to us.
Don’t come now and think that you can do human collaboration!
Tears flowed from deep within my heart.
Where the door opened… … .
“uh?”
“Oh my, it’s Lee Wol!”
“hello!”
There were Beryons. Three of them.
* * *
After exchanging warm greetings, the Berion members froze awkwardly.
Damn, is he going to be the MC with a lot of social skills this time too? This is going to add fuel to the suspicion that he’s greedy for screen time.
I can’t help it. I have to put up with it because he’s much younger than me.
“Seniors, is there a group you were hoping to join? Isn’t that me?”
“no!”
“I really wanted to perform on stage with those sparkling guys!”
It doesn’t matter whether this answer is sincere or not. What matters is that the devil doesn’t come out.
“And Mr. Yiwol, you don’t have to speak to me so politely!”
Even Chan Yeo, one of the vocalists and center of Beryon, was urging them to speak comfortably.
When I asked how he could do that to his senior, Berion responded by saying that the Republic of Korea is a country with a long history. We had no choice but to talk to each other.
“I really wanted to share a stage with my hyung. How could this happen?”
“With me?”
When I asked again, Yeo Seong-chan nodded vigorously.
“Oh! I thought it would be hard because it’s a vocal position and I thought Sungbin or Joo Woo would come out… … ”
“Holy Communion, your mouth!”
The other Berion members desperately tried to stop the rampaging female singer. Berion seems to have yet to fully learn how to guard his mouth.
I smiled at Berion, who was already watching me closely.
“I hid it because it was Seongbin and Joowoo’s secret weapon.”
“Wow… … Hyung, you have everything planned out!”
Even if you have a plan, it’s X-So’s fate to fall through, you know.
After that, there was nothing special to do. The only thing we had to film today was for the units to get to know each other and chat a bit.
‘Which group did Choi Je-ho and Lee Cheong-hyun match up with?’
I was worried about the luck of the two members’ group meeting while hearing Berion’s compliment, ‘Spark Stage, this part was cool!’
