Chapter 31 (including the third male lead) That colleague seems to have...
While Park Hyung-sik questioned his manager, Han Sang-hee didn't seem surprised about being a substitute MC on the music show.
Most newcomers start by filling in as MCs to test the waters.
If the response is good, it's possible that they could be recommended to other TV shows or become a full-fledged MC later on.
The TV station is also observing.
For Han Sang-hee, recording a music show as an MC is easier than recording a show as a member of an idol group performing on music shows.
However, when rehearsing with fellow idol seniors who are also MCs, Han Sang-hee always felt something was off.
After making eye contact with the other person, he would always quickly look away.
Is she some kind of monster?
After what seemed like the umpteenth time this situation occurred, Han Shangxi finally couldn't help but speak up and remind this person.
"Brother Jiongzhi, is there something strange on my face?"
No.
Park Hyung-ji realized his lapse in composure and knew that his denials would be particularly weak at this moment, so he suggested that he go out to adjust his state.
This wasn't my intention before I came; I just wanted to see the other person, and that was enough.
Park Hyung-shi splashed cold water on his face twice, and looking at himself in the mirror, he felt annoyed.
Sanghee must have seen through my thoughts.
Thinking back to when he met Sang-hee before, Sang-hee complained about her senior colleague who wasn't focused on her work, and Park Hyung-sik suddenly felt a headache coming on.
This is the first time Park Hyung-sik has liked someone so much.
His clumsy restraint couldn't hide his affection at all.
Unfortunately, although some of the staff present guessed his thoughts and started to watch the show quietly, Han Shangxi didn't care at all.
She could see the emotion in her colleague's eyes.
However, during working hours, work is the most important thing.
But after get off work, she herself is the most important person.
This might seem cruel to the other person. But she can't afford to pay any price for someone else's feelings right now.
Pretending not to see it is the best option.
It's better for both of them to end this short period of working together in a dignified manner.
Besides, Han Shangxi didn't think that this person could like her that much just because they met for the first time.
In the end, it all comes down to lust at first sight.
She silently complained to herself.
If Park Hyung-ji knew what Han Sang-hee was thinking at that moment, he would probably want to argue back.
This wasn't their first meeting.
He didn't just like Shangxi because she was pretty...
But even if you can't control this feeling, you have to.
Work is not child's play. He had already lost his composure just now.
If another mistake is made, it will truly waste the company's limited resources.
Thinking about the group and his brothers who genuinely cared for him, Park Hyung-sik became even more clear-headed.
After the adjustment, Park Hyung-sik's condition returned to normal.
The PD, who had been watching the whole thing, made a couple of jokes and helped him out of a tight spot.
"It seems that Hyung-ssi was just as captivated by Sang-hee's beauty as I was."
The process continued until the end of the show's recording, and Park Hyung-sik did not make any further mistakes in his interactions with Sang-hee.
Han Shangxi was happy to see all of this happen.
Maintaining a working state during work hours is the most basic thing.
If the other party makes a mistake, it will also affect the state she presents.
He was overcome with emotion. But what had she done wrong?
Han Shangxi has always been clear-headed.
She didn't think there was anything wrong with her actions in this matter.
Perhaps Park Hyung-ji was overwhelmed with excitement at finally seeing the girl he had long admired, but none of this mattered to Sang-hee, who knew nothing about it.
She doesn't need to be responsible for other people's love or lack thereof.
Park Hyung-sik, who had returned to normal working condition, was perceived to be better by Han Sang-hee.
She categorized them as colleagues she could work with.
One thing at a time, this person's professional skills are indeed top-notch.
Han Shangxi thought to himself.
Serving as a substitute MC on a music show also gave Sang-hee the opportunity to review her recognition skills.
To be honest, although I was introduced to some currently active idol groups during my pre-debut training, I haven't had many opportunities to meet these seniors since my debut.
ETEs rarely appear at gatherings within the community.
This is similar to the style of the WYSIWYG headquarters, which focuses on someone who is not familiar with anyone else.
However, when acting as an MC, Han Sang-hee is still professional, cuing the new song and guiding the flow, and making appropriate responses at the right time.
Her effortless style, displayed in front of the camera, not only won the hearts of fans but also attracted the attention of production teams.
After all, the recommendation from the middleman is one aspect, but the artist's own ability is another.
After the recording of the show ended, Han Sang-hee, who originally planned to leave directly, decided to go out and interact with her fans before leaving after hearing her staff mention that there were still fans waiting for her outside.
She cherishes her fans.
Her agent, who was traveling with her, quickly agreed to her proposal.
Upon emerging, Shangxi's first impression was of the bustling and lively atmosphere.
The screams that arose for her, the people who came for her—this was the first time Han Sang-hee had been alone in such a scene.
The number of people present exceeded Shangxi's expectations.
If you were the one waiting here, what kind of response would you expect?
Han Shangxi asked himself this question.
Fans adore her, and she tries her best to reciprocate that love.
Most of the fans who stayed were planning to leave before Sang-hee appeared; they were just trying their luck.
He greeted everyone, responded sincerely, and offered coffee to the fans present.
Sanghee's every move captivated the fans present.
The people who stayed here originally did so because they had a good impression of Sanghee.
After lowering their expectations, they suddenly received more responses.
How could I not be excited?
Actually, the journey home from get off work wasn't all smooth sailing this time.
There was also a minor hiccup.
—Sanghee, please take good care of the other two children for us.
The fan who said this is a group fan of ETE.
They never expected their words to cause such a stir.
Not only are there fans of the group here, but also fans of Sanghee as an individual.
This statement is fine when there are many group fans, but it becomes somewhat ambiguous when said in a context where there are just as many group fans as individual fans.
This is especially true for group fans and solo fans who have been having conflicts online recently.
This statement immediately drew a veiled rebuttal from the solo fans present.
—Our Shangxi needs to take good care of herself!
In front of their idols, they maintained their composure and didn't make a scene.
On the internet, however, it presents a completely different picture.
Not only did the real-time "leaving get off work" thread on the forum become a hot topic, but it also spawned four or five other derivative hot posts.
[A highly charismatic idol and her chaotic fandom: Reflections on watching the argument next door]
LZ: The idol himself is talented and has star quality, but unfortunately the fandom is too messy.
The original poster has already run away, neither decoding nor defending the thread.
1L: Are you talking about the princess? lol
3L: Decoded in a second, a fan's comment about the princess taking care of her two teammates instantly turned into a bloodbath in the chat room. I can only say thankfully it didn't escalate into a real-life fight offline. [A bystander commented...]
11L: S is the leader, and she's the only one in the group making public appearances right now. It's perfectly fine for group fans to mention her teammates while she's in the group. So many senior group leaders' fans didn't cause a scene, why are S's fans treating her like a princess?
13L: The rookie group that hasn't even become popular yet is already starting to fight amongst themselves...
Putting everything else aside, a bad fandom atmosphere is extremely off-putting.
21L: After watching for so many days, S is fine, but I don't know where all these solo fans came from.
22L: I'm curious too. As a group fan, I'm really exasperated by these solo fans. When I was a fan of other groups, I never heard anything like this… I hope solo fans can understand that the group and the team have a mutually beneficial relationship.
31L: From before her debut until now, she has always been the one to shield everyone from every controversy, but the spotlight and praise belong to everyone in the group.
They were all the same age, and her teammates were even a bit older than her.
While her teammates were listening to the company's training sessions, she was so busy with her schedule that she could only squeeze in time to review in the car, and yet she was still told by the group's fans to "care more about her teammates." Putting everything else aside, do some of these group's fans really have any conscience?
32L: It's a personal choice. The group has the ability to handle individual schedules and maintain exposure, so it's her choice. Every group has to have someone put in more effort. The teammates are also contributing; it's all for EE. It's laughable that solo fans pretend not to see it.
33L: Even if it were just a casual mention at the beginning, like, "Sanghee, please take care of yourself, and please let Minjin and Jihye live well," would it be so hard to say something like that?
34L: The team is right in front of us, everyone can see whether they're good or bad. Why not pay a little more attention to what's wrong with the other two?
35L: Forget it, I'm muting my mic. My mom doesn't let me talk to people whose IQ is considered low.
...
72L: Oh ho, they're arguing again. Thanks to the fans for demonstrating just how chaotic the princess's fandom is.
73L: Sigh...
74L: The princess is exactly my type, she's practically my ideal daughter.
75L: This is where the advantages of solo fandom really shine. I've seen them live on stage countless times, and I haven't participated in any online arguments at all, kkk
81L: By the way, do you guys think princesses are suitable to be a "fence" (someone who is unfaithful to another)?
82L: Well, after falling for the princess, I no longer have the worry of having a favorite character. Because my heart and eyes are only for the princess.
In general, company staff will know about fan disputes before the idols themselves.
There were no surprises at ETE as well.
It was expected that Sang-hee would have more individual fans, but it was surprising that she developed the ability to engage in lively discussions with the group's fans so quickly.
There were still some things the company hadn't anticipated.
Is it just empty talk, or does it symbolize real money?
Seeing the olive branch extended by the brand, the company decided to test the financial capabilities of these die-hard fans.
Although companies always talk about ideals and grand visions when launching idol groups, what most people care about is the benefits these groups can bring them.
However, at this time, most idol industry companies still had some conscience left and would maintain quality control so as not to ruin their own reputation.
Han Sang-hee secured her first personal endorsement, becoming the spokesperson for a juice brand under Kim's Department Store.

Author's Note: The poor little dog, unable to hide his feelings for the guest he was initially attracted to, was reminded to focus on his work.
And while career-driven, work is paramount; rationality and clarity are key. (Sang-hee)
Shangxi's inner monologue: If he doesn't recover to normal later, she really suspects he wants to harm her.
She's here to fill in as an MC, not to go on a blind date! [indifferent face]

Just like the unfortunate first meeting in the couple's name, will Zhi Xi have a future together? [Chin resting on hand.jpg]
