Chapter 24 - Patrol YG
YG Lounge Area
Han Sun-ah pointed to the three lounges and explained, "President nim, this is the lounge of YG's idol group, shall we go to the BLACKPINK group lounge first?" β
"Yes"
Han Sun-ah walked ahead and knocked on BLACKPINK's lounge door.
The agent saw Han Shanya for a moment, and then saw Li Chenghao standing behind Han Shanya, and immediately bent down respectfully to say hello.
Unlike S.M, YG and JYP have chaebols behind them.
YG Entertainment has a strong connection with CJ Group, so BLACKPINK's agent reacted instinctively when he saw Lee Sung-ho.
Access to the lounge
Han Shanya greeted the four girls gently.
The difference is that the appearance of Lee Sung-ho made Kim Ji-ni, who was originally standing on the left and right sides of the sofa, suddenly change her expression.
With a "Oba", Han Shanya subconsciously looked back at Li Chenghao.
Li Chenghao smiled slightly, walked directly to Jin Zhini's side, raised his hand and rubbed Jin Zhini's head: "Little girl, I haven't grown up for more than a year."
This seemingly too intimate action really shocked Minister Han Shanya.
However, the members of BLACKPINK and their managers did not show the slightest surprise.
In their opinion, this intimate act is normal for Lee Sung-ho and Kim Ji-ni.
"Auntie has been in good health lately, I haven't seen her for about three months."
Jin Zhini nodded obediently: "Mom is in good health, but she has been traveling overseas recently." β
Han Shanya worked hard to absorb this huge amount of information.
What she knows is that each of the four members of BLACKPINK has a different family background, among them, Kim Ji-ni's father is a shareholder of S Broadcasting, and her mother is a shareholder of many entertainment companies such as YG.
I don't think President Lee Sung-ho will also get involved in a major entertainment company like YG.
"CEO Nim has always been a strong woman representative of the company, in addition to work, the most worrying thing is you, how do you feel after becoming an idol debut?"
Jin Zhini bowed her head slightly, blushing: "I like the idol profession very much, didn't Oba say before that I can become an excellent idol." β
Li Chenghao doesn't remember saying such a thing, if he did, he must have said it when he encouraged Kim Ji-ni, after all, this girl finally found her goal, which is better than being an idle rich daughter in the future.
"Oba, she's Jisoo Oni, the captain of our group, and her family also runs a company."
"Hello President Nim, I'm Kim Jisoo from BLACKPINK"
"Hello, our Zhini didn't bother you less."
"No, Zhini is a very well-behaved sister."
Pointing to another person: "Oba, she is Rosie, the name of country H is Park Chaeyoung, and she is New Zealander." β
"Hello President nim, I'm Park Chaeyoung from BLACKPINK"
Lee Sung-ho looked at Park Chae-young, who looked shy in front of him, and jokingly said: "You are the face of the group."
"Oba, I'm the faΓ§ade, okay?"
Shaking his head at Kim Ji-ni: "Are you as beautiful as her?" β
"Oba, I'm prettier, can't you see?"
"Little Girl"
The last introduction is busy with LISA, a Thai, after getting to know the members of the group, and listening to Kim Ji-ni talk about the family background of the members, Lee Sung-ho sighed that this may be the only idol group composed of rich daughters in the active girl group.
However, she is willing to sweat and fight in the fierce entertainment industry, this kind of background plot is generally only found in film and television works, but I didn't expect it to exist in reality.
"You're going back to Seoul after today's performance?"
Jin Zhini thought that Li Chenghao was going to invite them to dinner, so she pulled Li Chenghao's arm: "Let's go back tomorrow, is Oba going to invite us to eat something delicious tonight?" β
Not only Kim Ji-ni is looking forward to it, but the other three are also faintly looking forward to it.
If Li Chenghao invited them, the agent would definitely not stop them from going out without permission.
"Why should I invite you to dinner? Little girl, remember, don't get too close to me, and Cui Chenggen and they will also come to Hanoi today, if he contacts you and asks you to take the members out to dinner, remember to refuse. β
"Why?"
"How can there be so many problems, if you don't listen to me, I will tell my aunt, and you will wait to be cleaned up when the time comes"
Leaving a warning, Lee Sung-ho and Han Sun-ah left BLACKPINK's break room.
The four of them sat on the sofa, and Jisoo asked Ji-ni, "Is he the Oba you said was always alone when you were a child?" β
"Yes, when I was a child, Oba really liked to hide in the corner alone, every time I went to their house to play, it was Shanhao Oba who took me to play at that time."
"It didn't look like it just now."
"He's changed when he's grown up, he's still so stingy anyway."
"Stingy?"
"Yes, they were reluctant to invite us to dinner, and asked me not to play with Nagen Oba and them."
"Who is Nazune Oba?"
Knowing that he is the son of the chairman of SK Group, the members also lamented that they are ordinary people compared to Kim Ji-ni.
Look at the people she knows, they are all the children of the top chaebols in country H.
Any person who stands up can make the entertainment industry shock.
YG Lounge Area
Lee Sung-ho and Han Sun-ah went to the lounges of WINNER and iKON one after another, and looking at the little fresh meat, Lee Sung-ho's first reaction was that YG's vision for choosing idols had also improved.
Jin Zhini, this girl, is not confused when she sees these little fresh meat? I shouldn't be secretly in love with the company's male artists.
Just as he was about to go to the JYP rest area, Lee Sung-ho's mobile phone rang.
As soon as he looked at the caller ID, Li Chenghao waved his hand to signal Han Shanya to go over first, pressed the call button, and Cui Chenggen's voice came: "Brother, we have arrived in Hanoi, are you busy?" β
"Say it quickly."
"Drink together in the evening."
"Don't drink it."
"Brother, you have to come tonight, I'm in a serious relationship this time, and I want to introduce it to my brother."
Li Chenghao held back a smile and asked casually: "Which female star is it again?" β
"Hey, brother shouldn't have heard of it, it stands to reason that brother doesn't know Dorne, their combination is not so famous."
Li Chenghao vaguely heard Choi Sung-geun asking a woman next to him: "Donne, is your group popular?" β
Then a woman's coquettish voice sounded: "Oba, don't mention sad things, if it's popular, we will also be invited to a friendship concert today." β
Choi Sung-geun's voice came again: "Brother, why don't you invite the 2EYES group, I still want to see Dorn perform on stage." β
There must be a lot of nonsense in the back, Li Chenghao interrupted Cui Chenggen: "I know, I talk when I drink at night, I'm very busy now, hang up"
Hanging up the phone, Li Chenghao shook his head helplessly, will Cui Chenggen fall in love seriously? What kind of international joke is the 2EYES group, Lee Sung-ho vaguely remembers the girl idol group that debuted about a year after joining CJ Entertainment, which was launched by SK Group's entertainment company.
This kid mostly saw himself and IU appear together, so he changed to an idol girlfriend.
Thinking of IU, she should be nearby too, and I'll check it out later.
