I Decided To Become a Perfect Girl - Chapter 187



187 – Dohee Lee Newcomer MC (1)

“Hello~”

When I arrived for the pre-meeting for SBC’s music broadcast and popular song MC, the conference room at the broadcasting station was mostly filled with people I knew.

“Dohee, are you here~?”

Main and assistant PDs and writers who I became acquainted with during my days as Save.

And there were people who had no acquaintances.

Male MC.

He was someone I passed by at awards ceremonies or on music broadcasts, but never said in full.

* * *

Pre-interview to commemorate MC inauguration.

I was sitting on a chair in the hallway in front of a panel with a lot of popular song logos on it, looking at the camera and answering questions with the male MC.

“Hello, I am Ailis Joo Seung-bin, the new MC~”

As I applauded, I thought of Eilis.

‘Eilis… Was probably a rep?’

NND’s agency, Repro.

As expected from a boy group under Repro, Eilis was also famous.

This time, it seemed like he came out to gain some recognition as an individual member.

“Here…”

While I was thinking about something else, Seungbin Joo suddenly handed the microphone to me.

“Ah, hello. I am also a new MC this time…”

I was so busy thinking about other things that I couldn’t think of what to introduce.

“What am I?”

I don’t think it’s called Seven.

It should just be Lee Do-hee…

ㅡPuhup.

The sound of suppressing laughter heard at that time.

Shortly, laughter was heard all around.

“Puhahahahaha!!”

“What should I do? It’s cute!”

Producers and writers.

The male MC next to me is also holding back, but he is sighing.

My face became hot in an instant.

Only then did I understand the situation.

I reflexively muttered an excuse.

“No… Well, I went to a music show because I was a member of Saven…”

But the people around me kept bursting into laughter as if they were listening to me.

“But since it was my first time coming to a music room like this since the disbandment, I was momentarily confused… I was wondering for a moment whether I should say the name of the new group…”

The PD gave a thumbs up.

“It’s fun, sure! As expected, we’re the youngest MC!”

…Ah, I think I’ll be made fun of if this goes on air again.

“I want to do it again…”

* * *

The interview continued again after receiving a promise to edit it.

‘You’ll do it, really…? ‘They always send out things like this.’

Still, I looked at the questionnaire the PD in front of me held up, feeling like I had to trust it.

Joo Seung-bin picked up the microphone first.

“Yes, I am 19 years old. I debuted as Eilis in April 22.”

I’m lucky that he’s a senior over there.

“I’m 17 years old. I debuted in October 2022. Wow~”

If I were a senior, I think it would have been difficult to call him/her.

Next question.

“Your nickname…?”

“Ah, nickname.”

Unlike Seungbin Joo, who seemed embarrassed, I opened my mouth comfortably.

Anyway, there is bound to be a title that refers to MCs as one.

It’s easy to think about.

From noble mtl dot com

“How about this? We each take our last names. Lee and Joo are combined to make up Lee Joo. I think it will have a good tone when proceeding. Introducing Joo Joo’s comeback! Something like this.”

“Oh, it’s good?”

Following Joo Seung-bin’s nod, the writers sent a positive sign.

“Okay, good!”

“There must be a lot of places to put it!”

PD sent an OK sign.

“Okay. From now on, the two of us will do it together. We’ll also make a corner. Now, next question.”

Joo Seungbin smiled brightly.

“I only heard that there was good news, but this morning, on my way to work, they told me that I had become an MC for a popular song, and I’m still shocked.”

This morning?

I guess they kept it a secret until the end because they wanted to keep it secret.

I told you openly.

‘Was I the only one nominated?’

I am more anxious about whether it will be possible to keep it secret.

Top East sisters also know.

Because I also told it to the Saven members.

‘First of all, I don’t think it’s a secret…’

Anyway, Saven unnies won’t go anywhere and talk about it.

They are not inexperienced enough to spoil other people’s news.

Now then, members.

‘I’ll go home today and check on Chiyo.’

That would be kind of fun.

hehehe.

“I came here because the director called me and said I had to do it. I have to work hard. I think that was my feeling.”

“Okay, then let me ask you the last question!”

* * *

“What’s going on Dohee? Is this sister a precious sword? hehehe.”

“Yes, of course.”

“Woo-a is now a jealous black woman… Do-hee is also a femme cheater who is bewitched, hehehe…”

It’s a mess.

“Okay, lie down. It looks like her muscles are very tight.”

“Come on! Let’s get a massage quickly…”

I pressed my calf muscles.

“aaah, it hurts!!!”

Sister Chiyo immediately kicked me and she ran to the bed.

I followed her, climbed onto the bed, and held on to her older sister’s calf while being kicked by her.

It looks like there is a bruise on the arm where she kicked him.

Still, I pressed her muscles.

I’ve been hurt by Hana before, and it really hurt here.

“Ahh!! This is not a massage!”

“I’m going to reveal it, I’m not going to reveal it!”

“aaah!! Me, why are you doing this to me!! Ah!”

* * *

Seungbin Joo smiled and got up from her chair.

“Are you here?”

The place I arrived at was Joo Seung-bin’s agency.

I greeted Seungbin Joo by handing him a set of refreshments.

“Oh, you don’t have to buy something like this.”

Joo Seung-bin receives it with both hands and looks troubled.

At first impression, he seems to be a polite person.

“I’m just asking you to please take care of me.”

No matter what, this is someone I have to see every week for over a year.

We should be friendly.

“Isn’t this place much wider than it is?”

Lepro headquarters, Eilis practice room.

On the TV, on the bed, on the sofa, on the desk…

It is so spacious that it feels spacious inside.

“Everyone who comes to take pictures of the challenge says the same thing. It’s very wide, right?”

Is it the richest agency among the four major agencies?

“Yes, the floor height is high, so heat circulation seems to be good…”

“It’s rather spacious, so sometimes the air conditioning blows a little.”

If we do well like NND, will we be able to move to a building like this in the future?

I’m suddenly curious about how much Repro’s sales are.

Joo Seungbin made me sit on the sofa.

And then I opened the package of refreshments.

“Let’s eat together and talk about what you bought. Oh, and there’s a cafe in this office building. If you want to have a drink…”

“Ah, thank you. I’ll have a chocolate latte then…”

“Yes, chocolate latte. And the manager…?”

Seungbin Joo looked at Manager Youngho next to me.

“Ah! Then, I’d like an Americano, please.”

Joo Seung-bin, who took the order, left for a moment.

“Manager, this place is really spacious.”

“That’s right. This is why I look at it as a large conglomerate.”

I took out my phone and searched.

[Repro Annual Sales]

ㅡRePro annual sales exceed KRW 1 trillion.

ㅡThe first entertainment company to join the ranks of large corporations.

‘How the f*ck did they do this?’

Once again, I wonder if the scale of NND is enormous.

But NND Jaehyun and I are the same Cartier ambassadors.

That’s me.

‘hehehe…’

As I was searching the sales of the other four major agencies on my phone, Joo Seung-bin came back with a drink.

“You came so quickly?”

“Oh, I can order this in advance through an employee-only app.”

I’m jealous.

“Then, by any chance, prepare the meal menu in advance.”

“Ah, yes. Lunch and dinner too…”

“What’s the menu…?”

“There are different types of menus… More than 5 items each…”

This is truly a large company.

I’m so f*cking jealous.

* * *

Sitting side by side on the sofa, enjoying refreshments and drinks.

The managers installed behind-the-scenes cameras without any sense of responsibility and then left.

It seems as if the airflow that suddenly becomes awkward is transmitted through the camera.

Especially when I was in elementary school and middle school, because the boys were young, rather than being rational, they would make pretentious confessions or act irritated to get attention, so I avoided them to the point where I wouldn’t even talk to them, so I’m even more unfamiliar with this situation.

‘Should I just treat him like a friend?’

“That…”

Joo Seungbin opened his mouth.

“Ah, yes.”

“Let’s start with the titles… Shall we sort that out?”

“Yes, yes.”

It’s been a long time since I’ve been the only one answering.

I sometimes do this in front of Director Sohyun.

However, if Director Sohyun gives you a choice that you can just say yes to.

This is just awkward…

“When we MC from now on, we’ll call you Dohee like that, but now we don’t even say that in private.”

Although I was pretentious, I smiled brightly and spoke positively.

“Yes, we will continue to see each other in the future. For now, you can just call me Seungbin senior, but you can call me whatever you feel comfortable with!”

“Well, is that so?”

“Yes, yes!”

He seemed burdened.

Should I just tell him to speak informally when it becomes more convenient…

“Okay…”

Static again.

Joo Seung-bin asked for a drink straw as if he had nothing to say.

“Ah, then first of all… Dohee is a freshman in high school… Right?”

“Yes, Hansung Arts High School.”

“Ah, Hansung Arts High School. I am Seomun Arts…”

“Yes, that third year student at Seoul Culture and Arts High School…”

“Ah, you know…”

“Yes, I was curious so I did a little research.”

To Namu Wiki.

“Oh, I see…”

Ha, f*ck.

I never thought my extroverted temperament would be so helpless.

It’s as if I’m seeing my partner for the first time on the first day of the new semester, and the seats around me are filled with that child’s friends.

* * *

“But actually… I’m a huge fan of Dohee.”

“Thank you?”

“That’s not an empty remark, I looked into playing the piano. It was really cool, so I looked into what he played at concerts…”

“Oh, really? I’m also an Eilis fan. I really like the song. I often listened to ‘Sticky Stigma’ and ‘Suddenly’…”

“Huh? It suddenly occurred to me that it’s a b-side song.”

“I tend to listen to all the included songs. I like the beat so much that I keep listening to it.”

“Ah, I see. It feels really good. Thank you.”

“hahahaha… Yes.”

I just brought up work.

I believe that time will make up for this awkwardness.

“Senior, have you selected a song?”

“Ah! Yes, yes. Shall we decide soon and practice?

There was a custom for music broadcast MCs to perform a special stage on the first broadcast day to commemorate their inauguration.

If the MC was an actor, the production staff would have chosen the stage song, but since the two of us are idols, we decided to choose the song ourselves.

At the first meeting, we decided to each pick a song by the next practice day.

A song as refreshing and refreshing as it is summer.

Of course, the song I chose was Namdol’s song.

My wish is to perform on stage with a male idol song.

Will I be able to achieve this by breaking away from Seven?

First, Seungbin Joo opened his mouth.

“First of all, I’m an old song… How’s the sea?”

…This guy is better at selecting songs than me.

“Oh, that’s me too. We got along.”

“hahahaha, really?”

“Yes, hahahaha…”

“……”

“……”

“Shall we practice?”

“Yes, yes.”
