"Hyung?"
It had been a few days and everyone had returned to Seoul, Junho who had stayed in Daegu for the holidays just arrived and found Woo-Jin sleeping on the couch of his house with a letter in his hand.
"Who's there!"
"Relax Hyung it's just me"
"Oh"
Woo-Jin sat up straight and regained his bearings as he looked at Junho who had just arrived.
"What are you doing here anyway?"
"I renovated the house I lived in and its going to take a few more weeks till its done so I thought I'd stay here for awhile anyway."
Woo-Jin gave him the letter that was in his hand, as soon as he did he laid back down and returned to sleeping.
"What is this?"
Junho opened the mail and his eyes widened upon reading the contents, he laughed and smiled.
"Congrats in advance"
"The Script reading is in two weeks."
"It's probably because some are still clearing their schedules, also do your best at the table read. the director, screenwriters, producers and all cast members will be in attendance together there and some will hear the script aloud together for the first time."
"So which do I qualify?"
"Maybe both as an actor and the screenwriter since its essentially your script but don't get caught up if they want to change a few things here and there since it is your first script just accept things for now but you perhaps won't be the principle screenwriter."
"I'll just accept it since this a first."
"Remember your role there is an actor, a scriptwriters role at a table read is to finetune the tone of the dialogue and adjust story direction, intensity and pace based on the actual cast's first read and chemistry."
"I know, and the actors role is to discover their character as well as other characters and consider how they can actually portray the character during shooting, but being the original author of this story I won't have any problems if I can just morph into them."
"Don't get too consumed and snap back, while its good to immerse yourself just remember who you are and your original identity after every shoot, we can't have an assassin being an idol besides despite you being casted on your preferred role there's chance they'll either increase or decrease your screen time."
"I wonder what I'm gonna do."
"I don't know reread the script and be prepared? That's the biggest thing, while you're there impress everyone including the production staff who knows you guys will meet soon enough, speaking off production staff."
"What?"
"About your solo debut again."
"Yes?"
"Why not sign with your sister?"
"Do it."
"That was fast"
"She's my sister and I'm sure she'll be happy to have me as an artist signed under her label and then we'll create an announcement regarding my status."
"Wait I just realized something."
Junho raised his eyebrow and also wondered what Woo-Jin had in mind, he would always listen to him since he was more knowledgeable regarding other aspects of the Idol life.
"You can't have your solo debut yet, its too complicated."
"How so."
"There'll be some backlash but not big if you debut first as a solo artist with a different label then come back to Pegasus, I think we'll need to hold off after your Pegasus redebut in the group, while our contract with the movie states that all relevant information aside from your name will be withheld they'll still speculated your under Pegasus"
"I guess everyone will have to wait."
"Yeah, redebut first with Pegasus, then after that you then debut again as a solo artist with your family's agency, less backlash more hype besides they'll probably like it more."
"Then let's go with that, since we're the only ones to know about it, let's shelf the music video for awhile or reedit with the boys later."
"They're already back too, want me to call them?"
"Have they signed their new contracts?"
"Yeah, the four of them signed it together when they learned that you would be staying, and I've hired six new managers one for each of them."
"Wait, don't call them yet we still need to practice for the concert for next week."
"I almost forgot about that."
"Just tell Jinyoung, Mingyu, Sungjae and Daniel to come and Eunwoo and Min-hyun to come later just extend their breaks but if they want to still come and practice tell them to just go ahead."
Woo-Jin nodded and strecthed his body, Junho chuckled and brought his luggage inside, the two had their schedule full already and it was just the start.
-
"Oh you guys have already met."
Junho arrived and placed his coat on the rack at the side of the room, the 'NEXT' logo was removed instead the logo of Pegasus was placed, he could see that Eunwoo and Minhyun were talking with the rest of them.
"Yeah Hyung its not like we don't know who Minhyun hyung is."
The four of them, Mingyu, Jinyoung, Sungjae and Daniel already knew about Minhyun as he was a highly placed contestant and was teammates with them during NEXT.
"Then I guess you've introduced yourselves to Eunwoo too?"
"Well."
"Lineup and introduce yourselves one by one since this is the final debut group."
The four of them followed what Junho said with all smiles, Minhyun and Eunwoo were dragged by Junho as they sat behind and looked at them as the four of them were at the center.
"Hello I'm Yook Sungjae, Sixteen the Maknae!"
"I'm Park Jinyoung Nineteen And me and Junho are not related but we're still brothers!"
"Kang Daniel, Sixteen! I'm the Dance machine!"
"Kim Mingyu, Seventeen, I'm in charge of the hairstyling now!"
Junho smiled and nodded, as the four laughed, Minhyun and Eunwoo clapped their hands at their warm introduction.
"You two do it."
"Yeah just to be fair"
Minhyun nodded and immediately stood up, he helped Eunwoo stand up and the two immediately stood side by side as the previous four sat down at the floor with Junho.
"I'm Hwang Minhyun, Seventeen, I like to play the piano and compose my own music."
"Oh looks like he's gunning for your spot Hyung!"
The four of them laughed as Junho chuckled, right now for their debut he'll be the one whose going to have a say in it and after that they can add and suggest on their first comeback.
"Hello everyone, I'm Cha Eun-woo, Seventeen"
"Damn why is he more handsome than me when he smiles I'm afraid I'm gonna lose some fans."
"We all are gonna lose some fans."
Junho joked along with them, he eventually he stood up while the two at the center sat back, right now he had everyone's attention as he was naturally the leader of the group.
"You guys already know me, I'll just be direct don't hesitate to call me if you need anything and treat each other as family we'll all be together for seven years or more if that happens, so which news do you guys want to hear first?"
"The bad!"
"The bad news is we still don't have a name so I suggest you guys give me recommendations two days from now since I'll be recording Inkigayo for tomorrow."
"The Good?"
"Do you guys want to hear the debut song?"
The six of them nodded, they wondered what Junho had created this time and they knew he wouldn't disappoint.
"Ah right before I play this, since the four of you are already here and are waiting for offers you still need to practice and to integrate Eunwoo and Minhyun to have better chemistry I suggest they dance with you while I'm not here tomorrow."
"So they'll replace your position?"
"Yeah, switch parts so they'll have an easier time to catch our flow now let's play it."
The Six of them listened to the mellow, yet relatively upbeat, circuitous melody rhythmic dance track, they liked the flow and the lyrics as Junho had already sang it, they all liked the song as it was easy to sing and remember.
"So what's the title?"
"It's pretty easy, guess."
"I don't know Hyung you say it."
"It's 'Love Scenario'."
