”You're right It is a very sensitive topic I would have never told you this had I not believed in you fully I was also just thinking about it, and this would have never escapedcare of the celebrities while co with the directors just as the chairman has intended That is, until…”
President Lee HyunJi pointed towards KangYoon KangYoon put down the wine glass he was holding
”You appeared and changed Yoon”
”It is safe for the celebrity to shi+ft their color to the company's preferences, but that means that they won't have any unique traits Without traits unique to the-running At this rate, MG Entertainment will er, they are probably going to keep '' replacement celebrities”
”So you're referring to the singers that got disbanded when I got employed”
”Precisely However, if it's you, TeaYoon, I think you will show me a new model Eddios, Min JinSeo, and even JooAh All three of them are very different to the models that the coroup known as Eddios are known not only because of their group but their individuality as hile you also achieved success with Min JinSeo as an actress - so that the company has never done until now With JooAh, you created, for us, a newthat JooAh's talents ork even in japan Would this have been possible if they were forced to change their colors to match the company's preferences? Probably not That's it They will definitely meet a limit eventually”
”The chairman and the directors are very affixed by their social circle as 'co that the co that the individualities of our otiable I will probably… walk a different path from the company in the future”
