Chapter 19 (Bug fixed) The quality of hearing loss in the left ear...
His hearing loss in his left ear was made public.
When Han Sang-hee learned of this, it was difficult for him not to feel a crisis of trust in the company.
Why make a big deal out of this?
Every time Han Shangxi begins to trust the company a little, something happens to remind her to stay alert.
Even after calming down, Han Shangxi observed the direction of public opinion and roughly guessed that this was not arranged by the company.
If there were even one normal person in the company, they wouldn't have done something like this.
But what if?
The fact that artists' rights cannot be guaranteed at all, and that the company can allow public opinion to develop to this point, speaks volumes.
Today it's her ears.
What will tomorrow bring?
Han Sang-hee is very glad that she discovered this before her debut.
Since things are already set in stone, and debuting at this company is a done deal, let's think about what to do next.
She wasn't expecting to get answers from anyone in the company.
Even under these circumstances, Han Shangxi continued to complete her daily plans.
When people are extremely busy—at school, in practice rooms, or in recording studios—they feel much more at ease.
Perhaps it's because everything in front of me is something I can control.
"Hey, why are you spacing out?"
GD's appearances are always perfectly timed.
Seeing his senior suddenly appear from the right, Han Sang-hee, whose thoughts had been interrupted, was not unhappy.
"I'm sorry, senior, I'm a little tired."
Because the other party was a familiar senior, Han Shangxi did not hide her true thoughts too much when answering.
This was the first time Han Shangxi had felt somewhat tired.
I used to think I could handle anything rationally, but now I realize that's not always the case.
That's all she feels now.
"Is it because of those things that happened online?"
Without any subtle hints, Kwon Ji-yong asked directly.
These days, rumors about the younger generation have spread online to the point of almost demonizing them.
Those things are a psychological test for anyone.
"Yes."
Han Sang-hee readily admitted this.
There's no reason not to admit it.
After expressing her concerns, she actually felt a little better.
That's what she cares about.
Kwon Ji-yong had prepared some words to comfort the child, but for some reason, the words that came out of his mouth turned into something else entirely.
"Sang-hee, please cheer up."
"yes!"
This exaggerated conversation achieved an effect that subtle words couldn't, making both of them laugh and diluting their original emotions.
Both of them are currently in a very bad state of public opinion.
In a way, they are like brothers in misfortune.
The recording studio fell silent again as the two continued working.
Kwon Ji-yong did not mention his junior's hearing loss in his left ear, and he seemed no different from before when they were together, except that he would choose to speak to the other person's right side more often.
After our last meeting, he started paying attention to Paracosm's updates again.
Following the accounts of juniors who are your fans sounds like a very strange thing to do.
While inwardly condemning himself, he kept a close eye on Paracosm's updates, naturally taking them all in.
How should I put it?
He respects the actions of every fan and is grateful for the trust placed in him by his juniors.
It's actually an unconscious act of protecting the other party.
The pointer of the scales began to tip slightly.
Never realizing that his identity had been exposed, Han Sang-hee treated Kwon Ji-yong with more of a junior's attitude in real life.
What? Paracosm?
Paracosm is Paracosm, not Han Shangxi.
Aside from responding to some comments that seem designed to invite criticism, she considers her style to be quite mild.
She works diligently to promote Amway, only occasionally responding to negative reviews. Most of the time, she prefers a two-way exchange with those who benefit from her recommendations.
Her presumptuous act of solving problems was presented to Li Rongzhe. This made her wonder what kind of fool the previous person had left behind.
Oh, the previous one was her father.
That's not surprising.
Maybe stupidity is contagious.
Li Rongzhe stopped everything and informed Jiang Suxian about the matter.
"If you have any resources that are suitable for that child, tell me. Consider it compensation for the child."
Her intention was to become Han Sang-hee's spokesperson as compensation.
However, Jiang Suxian politely declined the suggestion.
"Do you believe that as soon as you finish an endorsement deal, rumors about royalty will start circulating again?"
Jiang Suxian bluntly complained.
She never expected that the origin of the problem lay with Li Rongzhe.
She has come to understand YG Entertainment's situation.
A completely makeshift team.
Their crisis management and response capabilities are virtually nonexistent.
She wouldn't be surprised if all the artists in the company left one day.
She also declined her friend's suggestion to shift public opinion.
If the wind is manipulated repeatedly, the public will also rebel.
After ending the call, Jiang Suxian leaned back in her chair, unusually feeling a headache.
At first, she thought it was Yang Xianshuo's idea, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
It wasn't until the practice room video surfaced and she contacted the company that she discovered the company hadn't done it at all.
Before I could even ask Li Rongzhe for help, the other party called.
Good news, we know who did it.
The bad news is that it was done by people on our side.
What we need to guard against now is that some people are taking advantage of the situation.
Words can be inflammatory, but they also have an uncontrollable quality.
Things didn't start going as those people initially expected.
The dissatisfaction with Sanghee was also reflected in ETE.
A boycott against YG's new girl group is being quietly planned.
People who like YG artists but reject the new girl group claim it's because they think the terrible company will definitely allocate resources to the new girl group;
People who dislike YG and boycott the new girl group say it's because they think the company's artists are all terrible and they're just boycotting them.
At this moment, these people began to seek common ground while reserving differences.
They gathered a group of "ambitious individuals" through an anonymous forum and decided to hold a sit-in protest downstairs at YG to express their attitude.
Some people believe that idols, who are loved by many, should naturally accept the dislike they receive.
So they felt that the boycotts were no different from before. In previous years, some people even threw eggs into the company during rallies and demonstrations.
The emergence of these press releases boycotting sit-ins has even instilled a natural dislike for ETE, who has yet to debut.
Regardless of their validity, these people have forgotten a crucial premise: in their theory, idols receive praise and, consequently, criticism.
However, these things were a bit too advanced for them before they even debuted.
Before they even received any flowers, they were met with endless malice.
If you have hundreds of millions in wealth, you won't care about 1,000 Korean won.
But what if you only have 1,000 won? That's all they have.
The test of mental resilience is the final lesson for trainee Shangxi before she becomes an idol.
Looking out the window at the crowd gathered below, she realized it was hard for her not to care.
"Stop looking, my captain."
Cheng Zhihui gently patted the shoulder of her friend, who would nominally be her captain in the days to come.
When she came in, her friend was looking downstairs; she hadn't known how much time had passed since then.
Oh dear, not everyone is as indifferent to those people as she is.
She could understand why the captain acted this way.
Even when it comes to her thoughts, Cheng Zhihui rarely mentions her actual worries about her friends.
That's just her personality—a rebellious girl who's tough on the outside but soft on the inside, quite different from her established persona.
"Shangxi, the board members are looking for us."
Using the pretext of being a board member, Li Minzhen really wanted to take this person away from the window.
"Don't worry about these things. Our debut is a sure thing anyway."
Following Sang-hee's gaze downstairs, Lee Min-jin, who usually has a sarcastic style, said a few words of comfort, which was quite unusual for her.
The situation is so bad that it's hard to even smile.
Anyone who reads those comments will feel upset.
Even before they've made their debut, they've already become the most heinous people in the eyes of others.
Moreover, if it weren't for her, things wouldn't be like this now.
Those opinions were directed at Sang-hee.
Having been home once, she knew this clearly.
"I think the best way to resolve these boycotts is for more people to like us."
Han Shangxi turned to look at her two teammates behind her, her eyes gleaming brightly, and her words were equally blunt.
This is the first answer that idol Sanghee submitted in the face of the test.
Shangxi doesn't like to give up, especially since her goal, which she has worked hard for for nearly six years, is about to become a reality, within reach.
It's impossible not to care about those malicious acts that arise out of nowhere.
Let's just let all this malice be drowned out by the affection.
A strong sense of conviction is incredibly infectious. Even when they were being resisted to this extent, seeing Sang-hee like this, they would only feel that it was the darkness before dawn.
"Alright, let's go see the board member."
Noticing the two's somewhat stunned expressions, and thinking they had been frightened by her, Shang Xi couldn't help but laugh. She stopped looking at the crowd downstairs and eased the somewhat quiet atmosphere.
In their later recollections, both women felt that he was absolutely radiant at that moment. They said it was hard not to believe Sang-hee's words at that instant.
And that was indeed the case. They believed Sang-hee's words without hesitation and firmly followed him to create the dynasty that belonged to ETE.
At this point, Shang Xi had absolutely no confidence and had no idea whether anyone would dare to like them despite the overwhelming malice.
She just had to believe that many people would like their debut album, which had been in development for nearly two years, and to believe in the members' abilities.
Most importantly, believe in yourself, believe that you can definitely lead the members through this temporarily dark period. The light will come at the end of the road.
