Lee Jun-hee has debuted for ten years, and now his status is at the top of the Korean entertainment industry, so he can naturally get in touch with many things that ordinary artists can't touch, and he can also know the inside story that many ordinary artists don't know.

South Korea's entertainment industry is obviously far from those young people who have dreams of stardom and look forward to a better future, as IU imagined.

In this circle, there are too many unknown things, and there are also dark corners that most young people can't see.

Behind the infinite beauty of Korean artists, there is a desolation and misery that people can't imagine, and even, they often encounter violent problems.

Those artists who call for wind and rain and are sought after by countless fans, in the eyes of the senior management of economic companies, are just money-making machines, and they don't even have the most basic personal dignity, so they will fight when they raise their hands.

For example, Andy, a mythical combination, as a kind and naïve person, has happened to him too many things that are difficult for ordinary people to accept.

The most famous is the "Mask Incident", once during the performance, Andy wore a mask on stage, and later an insider revealed that the day before the performance, he was beaten by the senior management of the economic company, and his face was no longer visible, but he had to go on stage in this way.

At that time, S.M Company claimed to the public that Andy accidentally fell while taking a shower in the bathroom and received eight stitches.

There is also the original "exit incident", Andy was forced to be kicked out of the mythical group by Li Xiuman and returned to the United States, fortunately, the mythical group was very united, and through the convening of 10,000 people, Andy finally returned to the team.

Then there is the "suicide attempt", in which Andy was debilitated from leaving the country for military service after being disqualified from admission to the University of Foreign Chinese Studies in Korea at the beginning of the year, coupled with the issue of military service. One night, he swallowed more than 60 pills of headache medicine in one go, but fortunately, Andy's family heard his **** sound in the room, immediately rushed into the room to rescue him, and immediately sent him to the hospital for gastric lavage.

However, after arriving at the hospital, Andy resolutely refused to be gastric lavaged by the doctor, and finally the doctor had to force him to do gastric lavage, and then waited until Andy was emotionally stable. then sent him home to rest.

All of this is all due to the very perverted traditional operation mode of S.M company and the harsh exploitation of artists.

Andy is not the only one, another member of the mythical group, Junjin, came to the stage in a very large concert because he had been beaten to the bone by the top management of the record company the day before, but it was impossible to cancel the performance, so he had to take a closed shot, and their concert was not one a day like ordinary artists, but two a day.

The pain suffered by the two friends at that time, Lee Jun-hee also felt the same way, after all, when he was in MF. Being beaten by Kim Tae-hyun and Jung Won-kwan is simply commonplace for the members of NRG.

It is not uncommon to be physically and mentally devastated, financially squeezed, and you don't need to take others as an example, NRG when you were still in MF is the best example. When they were at their most popular, fans would often send them gifts. In the beginning, there were many kinds of gifts, but in the end, the fans basically gave something to eat.

Why?

Because these things to eat are the most important thing to Lee Jun-hee.

Like NRG, it is still very common today, and someone once broke the news on the Internet that they went to the artist's waiting room. It was a mess inside, and the floor was littered with bags of all kinds of food that the IDOL people had eaten.

The reason why this is the case is not because I often can't eat anything good, and at the same time, I have to face strong physical performances.

This is definitely not for weight loss, under the irresponsible pressure of the record company. The living conditions of Korean artists are so difficult.

Some popular IDOL only had their own car a few years after their debut, which is almost impossible among artists in other countries, but this car was bought by the artists themselves.

Korean brokerage companies basically have quite high commissions, and most of the IDOL comes in the form of combinations, so the money distributed to them is very small, and a lot of this money is used to invest in performances, so there is very little left for them to use.

But even so, few people are willing to give up, because the opportunity they got to make their debut was too manly, and it was won from the competition of thousands of people.

So Lee Ji-eun is lucky to be in NRG!

Perhaps the members of NRG have experienced the same days at the beginning, so they can better understand the difficulties of being an artist, when the company was founded, Lee Jun-hee had agreed with the members that NRG will always be a place for young people to realize their dreams, and will never become a vampire cave like MF Company.

You must know that most brokerage companies in South Korea don't regard their artists as people at all, and artists will always be just a tool to make money and an object of oppression in the eyes of those company executives.

The treatment of trainees is even more harsh, and some companies will even use those trainees who are not strong enough to make their debut as a bargaining chip to strengthen their relationship with some powerful figures.

Don't think this is alarmist, as one of the top figures in the entertainment industry, Lee Jun-hee can easily know some secrets that ordinary people will never be able to reach.

For example, some brokerage companies will draw a big pie for trainees who have already decided to be abandoned, paint them a bright future, and then force them to sell their bodies to make friends with powerful people to achieve some ulterior purposes.

Looking at IU's expression gradually becoming serious, Li Junxi felt a little regretful in his heart, maybe he shouldn't have said this to IU, so that this little girl was exposed to the dark side of this society too early.

However, this thought was just a flash, Li Junxi still felt that this last lesson was necessary, IU was too simple, if she didn't get vaccinated in advance, she would really be hurt in the future, and at that time, it would be too late.

“OPPA！” IU lowered her head and said in a small voice, "If the entertainment industry is really like you say, can I really survive ~~~~~~~?" ”

When Li Junxi heard this, he smiled faintly and said, "What? Don't have confidence in yourself? Still do you feel a little regretful about entering this circle!? ”

IU was slightly stunned, shook his head and said, "No~~~~~ no!" I don't regret it, I love singing and I like others to hear me sing, I'm just ~~~~~~ just a little worried, I don't know if I can do it well! ”

Lee Jun-hee smiled and raised his hand, pressed it on IU's little head, and said, "Ji-eun! I'm telling you this, not to make you guard against others in your heart all the time after your debut, I just hope that you can grow up and make your heart strong, and when you are strong enough, no one can hurt you. ”

IU frowned and said, "But~~~~~~~ but I still don't know what to do, I'm really stupid, OPPA!" I just want to sing quietly and sing to people who like me to sing, isn't that difficult? ”

Lee Jun-hee smiled and said, "Ji-eun! You have to know that around you, there will naturally be people who like you, but in the same way, there will be some people who don't like you, and those people will use various means to slander you and hurt you, at this time, what should you do? It's very simple, keep your original intention, there will be some people who will seduce you, let you do bad things, let you hurt people who like you, at this time, what should you do? It's still the same, keep your original intention, when you can do this, it proves that your heart is strong enough, and other people's words can't affect you or hurt you, now, understand? ”

IU thought thoughtfully for a while, and his frowning brows gradually relaxed, revealing a smile: "OPPA!" I understand! I promised OPPA, no matter when, I will not change my original intention, I just want to sing, even if someone scolds me, slanders me, satirizes me, I will not change my mind, and I will always be OPPA's little Zhien, no one will let me change! ”

Hearing Lee Ji-eun say this, Lee Jun-hee really felt very relieved, and it was obvious that this was the answer he wanted.

"Looks like we've had an effect in today's lesson, Ji-eun! Remember what you just said and keep the original intention! Don't care about other people's evaluations, just be yourself, and then no one can beat you! ”

IU nodded vigorously: "OPPA!" I remembered! ”

Sent Lee Ji-eun away, and in the next period of time, Lee Ji-eun will receive the most rigorous training in NRG to make her debut and make final preparations, as you can imagine, this period of time must be very difficult.

The training in NRG's practice life is already very hard, and Lee Ji-eun, as an artist who is about to debut, will face the final test in terms of hardship, which must be a higher level in terms of hardship.

The next thing doesn't need to be taken care of by Lee Jun-hee, he also knows that if Lee Ji-eun lives under his protection forever, he will never grow up, a fledgling, if he doesn't experience wind and rain, how can he finally soar in the sky.

If Lee Ji-eun can't persevere in the hard training, even if he debuts in the future, how can he succeed.

Lee Jun-hee thought about dialing Bae so-kyung's phone, and when the phone was connected, Lee Jun-hee only said: "Su-kyung, tell those teachers, don't relax your requirements for Ji-eun just because she is my student, I hope that on the day she debuts, what I will see is the most powerful IU!"
