PD?
Yes! The main character is a variety show PD at a broadcasting station.
Only then did I become a little interested. As I met Jeong Dajuns gaze, he quickly handed me the script as if urging me to read it first.
I had promised to read it, so I might as well take a look. As soon as I took the script, Jeong Dajun smiled slyly.
Hyung, I bet your opinion will change once you read it?
I scoffed, of course.
There is no way.
.
.
.
Well, maybe there is.
Despite being exhausted after practice and feeling like my body was melting away, I couldnt put down the script once I started reading. As a result, I had to head to a meeting with the planning team a little later in a drowsy state, having not slept for several hours.
Darn it.
How is it, hyung?! Its so much fun, right?
Uh, yeah, its fun.
It was, indeed, fun. There was a reason why Jeong Dajun had finished reading the script in the morning and eagerly asked for the next one.
While Korean dramas usually focus on preludes rather than climaxes to captivate viewership ratings, this one evenly sprinkles breadcrumbs throughout to maintain constant interest.
Moreover, while maintaining the authenticity of the broadcasting station, the parts that needed to be quickly passed through were smoothly filled with fiction so as not to lose tension.
This was a story with two main protagonists disguised as a romance.
The male lead, a rookie PD who joined the broadcasting station following the female lead, was originally from a chaebol family (an essential element for drama ratings). But the male lead hid his feelings from the female lead because his chaebol family ruined her family.
Writer Kim Sukhui, shes like a genius, right?
Shes a genius.
I said it in detail, but that wasnt the important thing for me.
Right! Right! And isnt Lee Jeonghun really similar to you, hyung?
Hmmm.
Yes, that was very troubling.
I slowly touched the corner of my mouth.
Jeong Dajun, do you think so too?
Yes? Of course!
The character, Lee Jeonghun from Please Take the Camera, was not much different in age from the 33-year-old second-hand rookie protagonist, Yu Jeonghwa. He was a ratings-guaranteed PD who had taken the most elite course by graduating with the highest honors, entering the company at the top, and not hesitating to do dirty deeds.
A character with a nasty personality who could do anything for ratings Yeah.
Doesnt this sound very familiar?
Ah, Im getting a caffeine rush! Before we leave, lets watch the summary video again!
Sure~.
After whining for a while, Jeong Dajun disappeared into his room, asking for a summary video to be watched on his phone.
As I was left alone, the system window popped up.
Ding!
[I think I know what Seo Hoyun is thinking.]
What a timely entrance.
I stared at it and gave it a shot.
Hey.
I asked while flipping through the script.
This is just me, isnt it?
Thats right.
PD Lee Jeonghun? Dont be ridiculous; this is just a copy of my life.
Of course, since its a drama, things like family background had been completely excluded, but this nasty personality was definitely me.
Its one thing for speech and characters to be similar, but theres no way the occupation and actions could be this similar.
Whats this? You know, dont you?
Theres no way this could be a coincidence.
As I stared at the system window, there was no answer for a moment, and then it appeared again.
[Seo Hoyun.]
What?
And then, suddenly, it sent me a link.
It was the first time it showed me something using the search function instead of a dialogue box, so I was slightly surprised.
[High self-esteem people have narcissism. What is the treatment?]
[Hello!! (emoticon)
Today, I will tell you how to treat narcissism! (emoticon)
Many people around us are subtly affected, arent they? (emoticon)
Sometimes it can be embarrassing~ (emoticon)
So today, lets learn how to treat narcissism!! (emoticon)]
Was this really supposed to be a treatment?
The more I looked, the more pointless the text seemed. As I opened my mouth in disbelief, a system message added one last comment.
[You seem to be overflowing with self-love Try reading this once!! Recommended!!]
In other words, regain a healthy life by preventing excessive self-consciousness.
I glared at the system message and sighed, bowing my head.
This little
What did I just hear?
With those who couldnt imagine the content opening their mouths in shock next to me, I quickly stopped Lee Jihyeon from talking and started to wrap up. I thought I should show them a better example.
Its about showing The Dawns daily life. Like what Lee Jihyeon said, what kind of food we like, what songs we enjoy, what we do on our days off I think its a good place to show that.
Lee Jihyeon continued to grumble beside me, frowning and saying, The writer is too mean, but Kim Seonghyeon still seemed not to understand and tilted his head.
Then how can a rural healing program show to the fans the daily life that they wanted to see?
Me!
Then, Kang Ichae raised his hand.
Yes, Ichae.
I think I know what Lee Jihyeon is talking about. A self-sufficient rural healing program!
What do you mean by that?
Wouldnt they want to see us picking wild herbs, chopping firewood, cooking, and playing together?
Wow, thats exactly it.
How can Ichae get more perfect.
Dont praise yourself.
Kang Ichae let out an exclamation, patting his own shoulder. And then, he sent a mischievous glance at Seong Jiwon, who could only let out a small laugh.
Were planning to proceed with a pilot program first and, if the response isnt bad, make it a regular program.
That means the location the shooting equipment
Please prepare it within a week.
Excuse me?
Please prepare it within a week.
I smiled brightly.
No matter how difficult they made it, I could handle it even more.
Nothing is more fun than pushing someone!
Honestly, there were only a few people in the planning team, enough to count on both hands, but since they had to handle all of Daepaseong Entertainments celebrities, I didnt think the work would be light.
But I was also 120% sincere about making The Dawn successful.
If you want to raise an idol, you must do this much, of course.
Ignoring the planning team, who seemed to want to spit on me to feel relieved, I looked around at the members.
Ill talk a bit more. You guys go ahead.
Uh, hyung. Can you handle it?
Id rather you not be here. Itd be distracting.
Wow, thats cold!
Go.
Pretty Ichae will leave first, feeling hurt~. I need to prepare the T-shirt Ill wear during the shoot!
T-shirt?
Look forward to it~.
Kang Ichae winked as he got up from his seat first. Seeing his intention to leave discreetly, I let out a hollow laugh inside.
Your intuition is seriously impressive.
By now, all the members had become experts at reading the atmosphere, but Kang Ichae was undoubtedly the best among them.
Good work, everyone.
Good work~!
The members and some of the planning team left in a hurry. Our manager, the planning team leader, Lee Jihyeon, and I were the only ones left. I checked to make sure that the members had definitely left.
Thats suspicious.
The planning team leader caught on to something and cautiously looked around before speaking.
What is it?
Im just surprised that they brought such a plain concept. I mean, rural healing is definitely a steady genre, but the person who suggested it was Seo Hoyun. I cant imagine him thinking of such a calm concept.
Why, I like healing stuff.
Ahaha. People usually want what they cant have. Right?
Thats true. Maybe the team leader wants it these days too?
The team leader awkwardly laughed in staccato, Ha. Ha. Ha., but then stopped. And then he carefully asked.
What are you aiming for? Do you want the fans reaction to be like, Hoyun suggested this healing concept, wow. Hes even perfect at planning for genius idols?
Come on, team leader. Wouldnt it be more like, Hoyun seemed not to be into it, but it looks like he actually wanted to do this healing variety show. Yeah, let our baby do whatever he wants?
Ding!
[Thats a really plausible reaction, isnt it?]
Exactly. It seemed like the planning team had been diligently monitoring these days.
I didnt think that far, but its not bad?
Im really curious about why Seo Hoyun is like that.
How on earth did he grow up to be like that?
As I murmured while stroking my chin, the planning team leader and Lee Jihyeon gave each other knowing looks. I held back from saying that if you grew up working your bones off to raise a younger sibling ten years younger than you, youd end up like me. I got back to the main point.
Anyway. Read this once, and lets discuss it afterward.
I pushed the proposal forward. As the planning team and the manager read it, their expression changed rapidly. The content was about leaving everything to the vivid reactions on the spot, without any specific script and only a rough outline
Do you know why I sent the members away?
I added a spoonful of tantalizing MSG to spice things up.
