Director shi+n Taekyun halted in theup his ju it even shaggier, and let out a sh
”Did you ever see ? If you can't believetaken on the day of the audition Take a look at it I' now”
After speaking cal room
But, before he could further than a few steps, an assistant director approached him this time
”Um, senior”
”What is it now? Let me have a smoke before we…”
”What do we do? Thefor an interview”
Director shi+n Taekyun frowned
”An interview?”
”No, I told them that senior has never done a separate interview and that you don't really like those things so you only speak a feords during the production presentation, but they keep contactingteam's perspective, they look at it as an opportunity to pro a dime”
Director shi+n Taekyun opened his
He checked the caller and answered the phone
”Mr Sunwoo?”
After listening to what the other person had to say for a while, Director shi+n Taekyun hung up Then he ordered the assistant director,
”The video of Lee Songha's camera test Send that to W&U”
”Pardon? Okay”
”And as for the interview…”
He paused Reading his expression, the assistant direction spoke first,
”Should I tell them that it'll never happen?”
”No, that… Hmm Tell them to wait for now”
The assistant director widened his eyes at his unexpected words
At the same time, the office of Knet's Next K-Star's production team
The producers and writers chattered ast themselves with excited faces, and Producer Go Joontae walked in With a greasy hair pressed doith a hat and a scratchy beard on his chin, he looked like he had slept on the streets for a few days, but his eyes glittered with excitement
As gazes gathered on hi to an assistant director
”Although everyone should know by now, read it officially”
”Yes Nove 24 in the capital regions, and 25 nationwide”
Everyone clapped their hands or thumped on the desks in cheers
Afterwards, Producer Go Joontae handed the assistant director another stack of papers
”This as well”
”Yes This is theis… Huh?”
The assistant director, who turned the page over to check the ratings, widened his eyes when he saw the highlighted one
”Why? What is it?”
The assistant director gulped down his saliva and said,
”The highest rating by minute is 31”
That hout the room
Even if cable progra popularity, only the s of public broadcast programs In reality, the majority of them hovered at around 1
In that situation, to hit 31 during the first broadcast of a newly launched progra
While they were noisy, Producer Go Joontae called over another producer
”We have a few good scenes of Neptune that we cut out due to ti team so they can turn them into clips to post on our official site and social media”
”Yes”
”Make another preview Showing a huge close-up of Lee Songha's face…”
Just then, solass door of the office
It was a ed ht people's attention He was General Manager Choi, the chief producer of Next K-Star Producer Go Joontae left a few more orders before he came out of the office
”Hyung, did you see the rating?”
”Of course, I did You did well The director is happy as well And we're getting constant inquiries about commercials and product placements”
”The next episode will probably have higher ratings”
Producer Go Joontae curled his lips upwards
General Manager Choi nodded his head while revealing an uneasy expression
”The ratings are good, but the proble at the public's opinion, if that girl, Lee Songha, sucks at acting, then it won't just be a probleht be bashed as well”
”What do we care? We only need to get good ratings When we asked TVL to get an actor to appear as a guest, did they? No Also, we already got sworn at by W&U's PR tea That woman's temper is no joke In the end, we promoted Neptune, yet they are pissy about one of the four is getting criticized… A co picture”
Producer Go Joontae clicked his tongue and said in a low voice,
”Still, I have so for because of that problem”
”What?”
”Can't hyung talk with the director and eat with the CEO of W&U once? S at the reactions, it looks like there will be a lot to gain from Neptune, and we need to calm them down so they appear until the final episode”
Producer Go Joontae lightly poked General Manager Choi's sides General Manager Choi frowned
”You throw the bomb, and you want me to clean it up?”
”We got good ratings Doesn't the director only need to get good ratings?”
When he said this while shrugging his shoulders, General Manager Choi eventually sighed
”You're bullying uy is unsatisfied, it's hard to e him…”
”Why? When I saw hiood personality?”
”You don't knohat you're talking about”
General Manager Choi smirked and said,
”Do you think soency starting froency in 10 years? He's not normal, that man”
I raised my head as I turned my tense shoulders
Everyone, including CEO Baek Hansung, was observing the laptop on top of the table Even though the video had long since ended, and the screen was dyed black
The mood in the CEO's office was similar to that day
The day Lee Songha had her audition in Pan Production's s in the air When the video was playing, there some exclamations, but it was so quiet now that you could hear a pin drop
It looked like everyone had a lot to say, but they were holding it in because of CEO Baek Hansung
CEO Baek Hansung was thinking with his legs crossed for a while now With an expression I couldn't read
What is his reaction?
Don't tell ?
There was no way Like everyone else, his eyes shi+ned as he watched the video
CEO Baek Hansung tapped his long finger on the sofa's arer before it stopped
That moment, he opened his mouth
”I think… it's best if we raise the stakes”
