Chapter 38: The Afterlife (Part II)

“…… Okay, Oma, don't worry, I'll take care of my ......"

The shadow of the bedside was faintly dragged out by the wall lamp, the sound of a whispered telephone echoed in the orange space, the bedroom was quiet, the sky of the city across the window, after the sound and brilliance of fireworks a few hours ago, fell into silence again, the moon hung quietly behind a gauzy cloud, and the dark river reflected the neon of the city in the night.

Taeyeon closed the curtains, withdrew her hand that was playing with the curtains, and listened to her mother on the other end of the phone, pretending to be helpless: "I really don't lack anything here...... Uh-huh...... You and Dad should also pay attention to your health, I look at the weather forecast, and it will cool down in Quanzhou...... Well, I know what I need, I'll call you, so I'll do it first, well, bye......"

Listening to the noise of Ha Yeon chirping on the other end and saying "Give it to me, I'm going to talk to Taeyeon on the phone", Taeyeon smiled and hung up decisively, and her heart was inevitably a little dark - my sister didn't shout, so it's strange to blame you!

Put away my phone and looked back, the clock hanging by the door, the hour hand was 11 o'clock.

"It's so late!"

Yun'er fell asleep on the bed behind her, before dinner, she didn't know what nerves she had in the middle of eating, she had to pester oppa to drink, but the amount of alcohol was not good, a glass of soju became drunk and hazy after a while, and then held the wine glass, and muttered innocently and didn't know what Lu Dao said, she didn't even take a shower, she fell asleep on the sofa, and oppa picked her up after dinner.

She looked quiet when she sleaned.

Not as noisy as when I woke up. I don't play pranks, I don't run around energetically, I just curl up in the quilt, my breathing is soft and soothing, and my face is slightly ruddy on the side, I don't know if it's because the wine hasn't subsided, or the temperature in the bedroom is a little higher.

Fingers ran lightly across her cheeks, the touch of body temperature warming her fingertips. There is no big smile with her mouth open, there is no angry trouble, and Yun'a, who is quiet, is very beautiful. Even if it's a girl. Many times she is also attracted to this delicate face.

…… No wonder...... He likes her......

Thinking about it, Taeyeon sighed imperceptibly.

But soon, this sigh was left behind by her, and the night was late. It's time to get ready for bed. But before going to bed. She also wanted to go upstairs to have a look.

So not long after, the bedroom door opened, and Yuna's pajamas were dressed. Taeyeon, who dragged her pajama pants to the ground, stepped on the light laid out in the room, and went up to the 2nd floor, the light in the study on the 2nd floor was still on, and the cold light fell into the corridor through the crack in the door, and gently pushed the door open, in the brightly lit study, he was sitting behind the desk and operating the mouse to read something, the sound of the door made him raise his head, and when he saw that it was her, he was stunned: "Is there something?"

"No, I was getting ready to go to bed and saw that the lights were still on in Oppa. With that, she stood in the doorway.

She is not Lin Yun'er, she can run in without scruples and throw herself into his arms, if she does that, with his character, maybe there will be a reaction!

Of course, she doesn't need to be on par with Yuna in everything, she also has a unique experience with him, and that experience also turns into a unique relationship, hearing her words, Ahn Junhyuk smiled: "If you can't sleep for a while, come and help me take a look." ”

Taeyeon, who was originally a little shy, quickly nodded and walked over: "What is OPPA looking at?"

"The practice business information compiled by the company is just right, and you can also help me check it. ”

"I don't quite understand!" Taeyeon lowered her head a little shyly, but still walked over to him and saw the screen in front of him.

Some web pages open on the screen, and many beautiful selfies are piled up on the page, and at first glance, it is a dazzling sight.

She glanced at it hurriedly and asked, "This is what Uncle Baogen said about ULzzang?"

At the dinner table, Park Young-joon, Kwon Bo-geun and Ahn Joon-hyuk talked about J.H's plan to start the trainee system, and they did not shy away from her and Yoona, and Taeyeon naturally understood the specific plan.

From Kwon Baogen's mouth, she knew that at the evening meeting, the management analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of J.H, and the initial plan was not based on the ordinary brokerage company, which used a wide range of draft methods to select trainee reserves.

This is not a unique way, but the lack of knowledge of J.H itself.

Looking at the more successful brokerage companies in the entertainment industry at present, such as DSP, SM, JYP, etc., they can attract young boys and girls to enter the company to practice like moths to the fire, the main reason is not how big the company is, how strong the profitability is, if you look at the fundamentals, it is actually very simple, they all have enough idol foundation!

In terms of attracting trainees, the company's financial resources and scale are secondary, and only the idol foundation is the most important thing, just like Japan's Genesys, which has the largest trainee reserve resources in Japan, but if you talk about financial resources, Sony and Ai Hui can leave it behind and eat ashes, and the reason why it dominates in terms of star-making is because it has gathered excellent trainee resources due to the idol effect since the 80s.

Women from countless families have sent their sons or younger brothers to Genesys in order to be close to their idols, and countless teenagers have stepped into this dream factory of beautiful teenagers for the dream of stardom.

The same is true in South Korea, DSP used to have Crystal Boy and Fin.K.L, and now has SS501, SM used to have HOT, Shinhye, SES, and now Ahn Joon-hyuk, BoA, and TVXQ, and JYP used to have GOD, and later also had Rain. Whether boys and girls are joining for idols or for debut, these companies are attractive enough to arouse their enthusiasm, and holding a talent show will naturally get twice the result with half the effort.

But J.H At present, even if J.H Entertainment and J.H Music are combined, only Baek Ji-young has signed a contract - Ahn Jun-hyuk's acting is only partly here - the idol foundation is weak, and he has not succeeded in bringing out any artists.

Later, at the suggestion of Kim Jung-wook, they set their sights on the Internet.

With personal blogs becoming popular in Korea. Websites such as Cyworld provide an original stage for ordinary netizens to show themselves, from the initial text, to the present, many people have begun to more widely disclose their beautiful side on the Internet, such as selfie life photos, and later, there is a kind of selection activity called ULzzang.

The so-called ULzzang is the romanized eol-zzang, which means "face praise, face is the best".

Some websites invite netizens to comment on public selfies. The prettiest part of it. will be selected into a UL.TOP list, and the selected person is ULzzang, and this kind of person usually gains huge popularity on the Internet because of the selection of various websites.

The first step in the trainee program developed by J.H. management. He set his sights on this group.

If you don't have good singing skills, you can practice. If you can't dance, you can learn it. But a pretty face is a talent. A group of young people whose appearance conforms to the public's aesthetics and has a certain popularity, but has not yet been included by other brokerage companies. You don't even have to spend publicity and selection fees on your own, if you want to select trainees, what could be more suitable than this?

Of course, these analyses were reported by Park Young-joon during dinner, and Taeyeon heard them intermittently, and she didn't know if she was right, but seeing that Ahn Joon-hyuk had begun to understand what ULzzang looked like, she obviously agreed with this plan.

Ahn Junhyuk nodded: "Well, this is a preliminary selection in the company, a total of 20 people, you can also help me take a look." ”

can be selected into the UL.TOP, and was screened by J.H internally, the appearance is naturally not to say, casually watched a few girls' selfies, Taeyeon was stimulated to feel a little inferior, but since she came, she didn't want to leave for a while, her body leaned lightly against him, when operating the computer, and even occasionally breathed heavily, the bodies of the two would inevitably meet, and the girl blushed a little and heartbeat.

Especially when he spoke in her ear, the burning breath spewed into her ear, and the strands of hair that fell down rubbed by, where there seemed to be an invisible hand stirring, and in a few moments it seemed to be dyed with the morning glow.

Taeyeon was uncomfortable brushing her hair behind her ears, and with this action, a faint body fragrance spread, and Ahn Joon-hyuk, who was tapping the screen with one hand and telling Taeyeon about his selection of standards, suddenly paused and looked at her ears.

A blush floated up her cheeks, and the heart in her chest increased sharply, and Taeyeon bit her lip and tried to make a gesture that she hadn't noticed, and continued to look at the screen, but she forgot what she was looking at.

Then, the next moment, she hit the spirit hard.

Ahn Junhyuk pinched the earlobe of her right ear with one hand, and at that moment, it seemed to be hit by electricity, and the strong tingling sensation made the girl's breathing disordered, and the arm supported on the armrest was so soft that she almost lost her strength.

“o…… oppa?”

"Freshly pierced ears?"

…… He found ......

Suddenly, with an inexplicable anticipation in his heart, Taeyeon let out an "um", holding on to an unbearable sour shiver that spread from the tip of his heart, letting his rough fingers rub against the edge of the piercing ear that still had a slight pain, "...... The beautician said that this ...... Compare the lining oppa sent me clothes ......"

With that, she shifted her angle imperceptibly, letting the light of the lamp shine on it.

Under the brilliant light, the three studs with rhinestones in the right ear sparkle like real diamonds.

“oppa…… Is it pretty?"

“…… Pretty. ”

It's beautiful!

Looking at the girl's lovely face, a bright smile bloomed in an instant, Ahn Junhyuk's eyes were gloomy, and the power of memory seemed to ignore time at this moment, and it seemed to be yesterday in front of him again, and it seemed to be a picture of that rainy night in the forest a long time ago.

The rain, the mud, the messy and staggered flashlights in the distance, the rain flew into a curtain, the smell of blood sweetness and the fragrance of the body lingered on the tip of his nose, and there was a gentle kiss imprinted on the corner of his mouth.

There are many things that I can't pretend to see anymore.

Ahn Joon-hyuk, Ahn Joon-hyuk.

Who did you fail in your previous life? Whose name did you forget?

This afterlife......

About Taeyeon, about Yoona, all kinds of memories are as clear as yesterday, how much can you forget in this afterlife? (To be continued......)
