"You must be Park Junho? Dave called me in he said a friend needed help or something like that."
Junho stopped drinking the tea as he looked at the scuffed man in front of him, he nodded and motioned him to seat.
"Please sit, I've heard from Dave about your situation."
"Yeah about that."
"Kim Beom Jun, 32, single, graduated from LA Film School, has two music video's under his belt but never released due to creative differences and not meeting the expectations of the agency."
"Well it's because everyone is stuck in the past here in Korea, I want to make things interesting, I want to add new elements and stories not the regular music, I want to add things never before seen or you know create things out of nothing."
"That's pretty interesting to hear."
Junho continued drinking the tea as he looked at the man in front of him, Kim Beom Jun looked nervous somehow, the only thing he was told was to be prepared for a meeting but he didn't know anything about Junho.
"Here, its the lyrics of a song, tell me how you're gonna shoot it."
"I."
-
"Say why is everyone here so excited about today's practice?"
Somi asked Jihyo as some looked excited and some looked nervous, it wasn't surprising as it was the weekly evaluations but it was an odd yet familiar feeling to her.
"Who knows but Sana over there seemed excited for a reason so I don't know, let's just focus on passing for today."
Somi just nodded and didn't say anything else as she focused herself, shortly after Mia Kim entered along with Daniel and Jinyoung.
"Hello everyone, I'm sure some of you know this two right here and some of you have questions while some of you already know what I'm about to announce, well the company's Hyung isn't here so they'll be taking his place, care to tell these nervous kids what we're going to do?"
"Well I was in your position once so I'll just announce it without any suspense, we're going to do a different weekly evaluation for a month or less, we're going to show you the chorus, a part of the song, the lucky trainee's who get selected by us including a final evaluation by Junho will be part of our upcoming Music Video's"
"Yes, I'm sure everyone of you listened very closely, 'Video's' meaning each and everyone has tons of chances, and I'm sure everyone knows that even a second or more is enough to garner attention."
Everyone nodded excitedly at their words, they knew it was a chance and it would increase their chances of debuting especially if they recommend them.
"Does anyone else have any questions?"
All of them shook their heads.
"Alright then let's begin, I also hope none of you leak this but this just the beat so it really doesn't matter since a teaser is going to be uploaded by next week, go Daniel its your time to shine."
"Got it, I hope all of you look closely and carefully although we will be helping you practice for two days or until Hyung comes back to personally teach you guys."
-
"So that's how I would shoot it."
Junho nodded and soon took back the document he gave to him, he then handed out a new document, Kim Beom Jun immediately took it without hesitation thinking it was another song but as soon as he opened what he saw was a contract.
"A contract?"
"I know its unprecedented for a director to be with an agency and not their own studio, but what I'm offering you is for a chance to still own a studio while being under me."
"What would that bring me."
"Do you know me?"
"Hardly."
"Well if you sign it right now not only am I going to give you opportunities while starting small but I'm going to give you creative freedom."
"But I'm still gonna be under you and I don't want to keep making music video's forever, while it is a temptation but I want to go on and make bigger things I'm sure you know what I mean."
"Yes I do know what you mean and when did I say we'll only stop at Music Video's?"
"We aren't?"
Junho smiled as Kim Beom Jun was confused with Junho, he didn't know who he really was other than Dave telling him he was an interesting person to talk with.
"Of course, first off we have to start small like this and after that once we've proven we can do it flawlessly we move onto the next big thing drama's, then finally onto the silver screen isn't that nice to hear?"
"Well if you put it like that."
Junho then placed a pen beside the paper, Kim Beom Jun gulped down as he looked at the pen, he felt he heard a small voice telling him to sign the pen.
"Your choice."
-
"Yeah I'm here where are you?"
Woo-Jin was driving until he saw Junho, Junho then sat at the front seat as soon as he entered.
"Here."
"What's this?"
"Your Aunt gave it to you, says it was better late than never in congratulating you."
Junho nodded and opened the documents given to him, right now he felt nauseated as he had been in front of documents for the entire week.
"Are these all advertisements offers?"
"Yeah from clothing brands down to car brands, I made sure to filter out the necessary ones where you'll have screen time and at the minimum have a line or two."
"But there are no beauty offers huh."
"Well you're her nephew after all and you're an exclusive ambassador signed to her company so maybe they threw it out"
"Yeah Yeah, let me choose one or two."
"Be careful and make sure it you do it right."
"I will."
