MTL - Korean Entertainment Kpopstar-Chapter 38 Dual citizenship!
Junsu and Haha sat on the small terrace outside the bar in Hongdae late at night, drinking beer with some fried food. Junxiu looked curiously at the greasy HAHA in front of him. He was really curious, how could he suddenly become like this? He even came here to beg for drinks. He is an artist after all, right? Is it too dignified to do so?
When Haha drank half a cup of beer in big letters, Junxiu asked, "Brother Haha, what's wrong with you? How did you become like this?"
"How did it become like this? I also want to know how it became like this. You came out of a big company, and there will be a lot of understanding there. All the promotions, itinerary arrangements, etc., all of you have a company that handles everything for you. You just need to go according to the company's plan. Artists like us? Cut~~~ Can I be considered an artist? I don't even know myself, hehehe..."
Hearing HAHA's words, Junsu was also very puzzled, what did he mean by that? At this time, the artists have not yet reached the level of "bad street". Although the speed of star-making is gradually accelerating, but now basically all the artists who have made their debut will be invited to the show. In particular, the format of variety shows has quietly changed, giving many comedians more opportunities to appear in TV broadcasts.
So as long as the artist doesn't care about the image, the agency will recommend it to the program team a little, and they will have the opportunity to appear. Even if there is not much salary for doing 'Green Leaf', as long as the artist has the opportunity to show up, it is not certain that the opportunity will appear quietly one day.
At least Junxiu thinks like this. Artists have to expose themselves from time to time, instead of just playing the mystery like the 1990s, so one day they will have their own market. Junxiu looked at HAHA and said, "Brother HAHA.. No, don't you have an agency?"
"A brokerage company? Hahaha... Does a brokerage company set up by my own family count?"
At this time, the artist's activities must use a brokerage company to negotiate with the TV station program group, and at this time there is no personal artist (the kind without an agent, the TV station directly contacts the artist)
So Junsu understood what he meant by 'a company founded by his family'. How would such a company say? There are advantages and disadvantages. Advantage: You can get all the performance fees yourself. Disadvantage: The so-called interpersonal relationship requires them to accumulate step by step and run the relationship.
The disadvantage is that it is difficult for such a brokerage company to survive once the artist does not become popular.
Looking at the appearance of HAHA at this time, their brokerage company is the last situation. Although HAHA made his debut, the sales of the album were not very good, and he also appeared in sitcoms, but his acting skills were not recognized by the industry.
So what he wanted to express was: Can an artist who is not popular still count as an artist?
Junxiu took two sips of the beer and said, "Haha brother, I don't know what caused you to be in such a decadent state. I have watched your "NONSTOP3", and I think you are very funny. You also have the talent of a comedian (thick-skinned, of course, this Junxiu didn't say it directly, because it was too hurtful), why don't you try to go in the direction of a comedian, you don't see the current variety shows gradually Have you raised your eyebrows? And novel variety shows like "X-man" are also taking over the weekend. So, I think you can work hard in this direction."
"Haha.. Do you think I can appear in "X-man" now? That show isn't something anyone can go to if they want."
After a long silence, Junxiu said after drinking half a glass of beer, "Brother...I will help you! This year I will collaborate with KBS on a TV series, I will write the script myself, and then I will add a supporting role to you. But , you have to clean up yourselves, don't spend the whole day like this. At the latest in July, the TV series on my side will start shooting. How is it? Are you interested?"
"Junxiu, I have nothing, how should I thank you for helping me like this?"
"Brother HAHA, even if you want to thank me, let's wait for your development. Let's go back after drinking this glass of wine. I have to go to the company in the morning."
Sometimes the real friendship is to help people when they are in trouble.
.........
In the middle of the night, after the two had a glass of beer, Junxiu sent HAHA back to his home and exchanged numbers with each other before he returned to the dormitory. After a few hours of rest, he went to the company.
Since S.M's TVXQ debut, more and more fans come to the company's door to "pay tribute" (send gifts). So when Junsu arrived, he entered the company amid the screams of fans. The news of Junsu's appearance in the company reached the fansclub within a few minutes. After the news came out, it gradually attracted a lot of fans and started to come to S.M.
Entering the company, Junxiu went directly to Li Xiuman's office. Sitting on the sofa, he looked at Li Xiuman with slack eyes: "Uncle, why did you call me here so early? It's not easy for me to rest, and I didn't even sleep well today."
"The song for your comeback has come out, and the June comeback is a dance song." Li Xiuman knew how busy TVXQ was after his debut, so he never asked Junxiu to write songs during this period. Even if Junxiu is very creative, but he has no time to create, then everything is equal to zero. So TVXQ's comeback album is still not Junxiu's creation.
"The rest I imagined is just an illusion in the end. When will the recording be made?"
"Do you still want to take a vacation? Haha.. I think you have too many things to do. Do you still have the mind to take a vacation? Well.. take it. I'm going to come to the company to record in the afternoon."
With a smile, Li Xiuman took out a book from his drawer and threw it to Junxiu. Junxiu caught the book and looked at the words 'resident's household registration book'. Junxiu opened the household registration book and found an identity card. Certificate, name: Zhang Junxiu. Next to it is a photo of him. Address: Cheongdam-dong...ID number: XXX....
When Junxiu got his account, he looked at Li Xiuman excitedly: "Mine?"
"Of course, your application for dual citizenship has been approved. This is your Korean household registration. It's mainly your words that scared KBS. When did you pass the dual citizenship review, and when did you start writing? Hehe... Only you kid can think of it. , go back and think about the script yourself. You will not be participating in the show for the time being. If you can, you'd better get the male lead of your script. Oh, by the way, your 20th birthday is over, right? Call your manager later. Accompany you to sign up to learn to drive."
"Understood, I'll go back first and put the account in place."
After leaving the office, Junxiu happily held the household registration book in her hand, feeling very excited, the long-awaited dual citizenship is now finally settled. After this is done, it means that I can appear in any program in Korea in an upright manner, without wearing a mask. This account book seems to be a 'lifting ban'.
Junxiu can display more of his own ambitions, he took the household registration book and laughed madly: "Li Xiuman is right, why can't he win the male lead with the script he wrote? KBS knows that there must be a lot of them now. The audience is looking forward to their next work, so why can't I use my next work to play the male lead? Uh.. Acting is a flaw. Then do you want to write one that doesn't require too much acting skills? The male lead? Or the male lead who can act in his true colors? Um.. I'll have to think about it when I go back."
After returning to the company this time, Junxiu realized that the rest he wanted was nothing but a dream. Although he didn’t have to travel to the TV station, his work was no less than that of the members who filmed the show~www.novelbuddy.com~ This time Come back to dance, then you have to practice dancing. 20 years old, to learn to drive. There is also the script that promised KBS, if he really wants to be the 'male number one', then at least he has to go to the training of acting class temporarily, so there are not many things about him.
After Junxiu informed the agent with her Korean ID card, she happily went downstairs and prepared to leave through the back door, because there were indeed too many fans in front of her.
The back door of the company, the door where the trainees go in and out every day, Junxiu just came downstairs and met Huang Meiying who came back with a drink. This was the first time she saw Junxiu in the company. She quickly bowed and greeted her in Korean: "Junxiu Hello, senior."
"Hello, Stephanie. Long time no see, how are you getting used to it?"
In the end, Stephanie still only understood what was behind "Hello" and she still didn't understand, so she laughed silly. Junxiu shook her head and thought, she has only learned Korean for less than two months, how can she improve her level? So he turned into English and said, "We haven't seen each other for a month. The last time I saw you was in April."
"Haha.. Because you are very busy, senior, you rarely come to the company."
"I'm quite busy, how about it? Are you used to it now?"
"Well, I'm a little used to it."
"It's amazing. When I came back to Korea, it took me like 2-3 years to get used to the culture of this country. Hehe.. Don't worry, take your time.
