Chapter 196

He doesnt seem like a top star?

(What is he talking about?)

(Its okay. Director Sung will edit it well.)

Ian and Jo Tae-woong waited with interest for Kim Ju-young to open his mouth on the screen.

(Is it Seo-hee unnies talk show today?)

(The guest is Awys Joo-young.)

Park Su-min and Lee Yu-jeong also looked at Kim Ju-young with anticipation in their eyes. Kim Ju-young smiled awkwardly.

(But you know how audition programs divide the main vocal, dancer, and so on. What are you, Ju-young?)

Before waiting for Kim Ju-youngs answer, impatient Chae Seo-hee asked first.

(Theres nothing fixed. If I had to choose, maybe main dancer? But it doesnt matter, because all of our members are good.)Discover new chapters at novelbin(.)com

Ian and Jo Tae-woong looked pleased. It was the same expression they had when they watched Park Seo-dam as an MC from behind.

(You sing well too, right? Anything else?)

(I also participate in composing)

(Wow. Joo-young has a lot of skills.)

The songs that Kim Joo-young participated in composing for Awy appeared as captions.

Kim Ju-young is really a cheat character.

Right.

Kim Ju-young looked unsure of himself, but his composing sense, dancing skills, and will to improve himself even in his spare time were not something that could be made up. He definitely had some innate talent.

(Awy is doing well. My daughter said that theyre no joke overseas. How do you feel?)

(Is that so? I dont really feel it)

(Ah, are you being modest? You dont have to pretend in front of us.)

(No, its not that)

The actresses who bit the bait teased Kim Ju-young. Director Sung also joined in and started to bully Kim Ju-young.

(Youre really different from other popular idols.)

(Is this the famous I dont know thing?)

Kim Ju-young shook his hands and denied it. When it became quiet for a moment, he quickly continued.

(Well, we feel a lot from the performances. But we havent done many performances lately. So I dont know how much our popularity has increased. I can guess for the domestic fans, but)

Kim Ju-young scratched the back of his head and answered Lee Yu-jeongs question. Chae Seo-hee, who carefully observed Kim Ju-youngs face, said bluntly.

(But I dont think youre that much of a top star, Ju-young?)

(What?)

Kim Ju-young was startled and made a dumbfounded expression. Park Su-min tapped Chae Seo-hees shoulder.

(Unnie, dont say that. He might misunderstand.)

(Sorry, I mean If I were in your position, I would be confident and proud.)

Awy had been receiving more attention than other rookie groups since their debut. They had been on a steady rise without any setbacks.

They were happy when they got their first place on music sites and music shows, and when they achieved records that they couldnt even imagine before their debut, but their anxiety was greater.

Can we get better results than this in the next album?

What if our popularity fades away?

How long will our fans like us?

They couldnt adapt to the situation because their popularity had risen so fast.

Chae Seo-hee nodded.

(I know. Its more empty when youre building your career.)

(Right. Thats why I think I couldnt enjoy the good feelings at that time.)

The screen changed and showed the scenes of the actors receiving awards at film festivals, and giving their acceptance speeches at the end-of-year entertainment awards.

And there was also a scene of Awy receiving an award at a major music awards ceremony. Kim Ju-young on the screen was moistening his eyes as if he was about to cry, and spoke his feelings.

(I was happy and grateful, but it didnt last long, I was anxious when I turned around.)

(Do you know that feeling? Happy but uneasy?)

(Ah)

Especially Park Su-min was already hooked on Kim Ju-youngs words, making a furrowed brow.

(I know. I also worried a lot about what if the next work doesnt do as well as the previous one when I go into it.)

Park Su-min had developed an obsession to show better acting after winning the Best Supporting Actress award at a film festival.

(Thats right. Thats how I felt.)

(Nothing special. I just enjoyed it when I was happy.)

(Really?)

(Theres no point in being anxious whether it works out or not, and its too )

Chae Seo-hee couldnt finish her sentence when Ian said a word.

Its not cost-effective.

Wow, you summarized it in one line.

The three actresses didnt hesitate to give advice to their young junior.

Kim Ju-young laughed awkwardly.

(You are much more amazing than you think.)

(You dont need to live so fiercely. Life is a marathon, not a sprint.)

The image of Kim Ju-young that I saw in the trailer came to my mind. He looked like he would shed a tear with a single touch.

Ian and Jo Tae-woong teased him for crying for no reason, so he laughed sheepishly.

Come on, Kim Ju-young. Talk to us.

Dont make us feel like were the bad guys.

Ian and Jo Tae-woong felt uneasy, realizing that they had unintentionally dismissed his worries as nothing, even though they sympathized with him.

Should we stop watching?

Yeah. Is there any interesting movie?

Do you want to play games?

The CEO of the agency, Lee Byung-hun, leaned back on the sofa and sank into his thoughts after watching Rural Life.

The kids are really diligent.

From the perspective of the agency staff and the fans, AWY was walking the ideal path of an idol.

They didnt have any personal SNS accounts, so they never made any mistakes with their words. They always went to the fan cafe and did fan service diligently.

They never had any scandals with their past, and they didnt like drinking or nightlife.

At most, they would play games together, so there was little chance of them causing trouble and appearing on the social media.

Individual or group.

From the CEOs point of view, the group itself was already doing well, so it was too early to take care of the individuals separately. If he did that, the fandom would split too.

I cant take care of each one of them.

There were seven members in the group, so there were some members who didnt get much attention. Since they were not soloists, he couldnt take care of them individually.

It didnt mean that each idol was living an ideal life just because AWY was walking the ideal path of an idol.

Kim Ju-young felt alienated from the other members, so his self-esteem was low.

I hope you can adjust well.

He recalled Mins words and the deep wrinkles on his forehead became deeper.

After Rural Life ended, AWYs fans conducted a hashtag campaign and a campaign to post encouraging messages for the members on the official cafe.

#Amazing_People_AWY

#AlwaysWithJuyoung

-I could relate to a lot of things in Rural Life today

Im afraid of failing later, so I cant even be happy when I have a happy moment

Same, me too

But its surprising that AWY thinks that way

But the higher you are, the scarier it is to fall

True, just look at this place. If the sales drop, theyll say theyre flops and whatnot

-Kim Ju-young, I get what youre saying, but

Its funny when AWY says that

They say that while theyre covered in luxury gifts from the fans and driving foreign cars With the money that the fans buy the albums with

Shut up

AWY doesnt accept support

AWY doesnt have a license

-How much did the other members bully him that his self-esteem is so low

Hey, this is too obvious that youre trolling
