I Became a Producer Who Rewrites Idols

78 – Band Idol (11)

The day the band changed its name from Red Dragon to Yellow Cow.

“As expected, Somin suits you well.”

“Of course we all fit together!”

… Second – Hwang So-min also wore a bunny girl and showed it to me.

Secretary Jeong Song-i, who was sitting next to me, seemed to be tired of it and just played with her smartphone.

Now that all the quintuplets were together, they had to practice their debut song.

If you think about it, only about a month has passed since the youngest—Hwang So-jeong first contacted me.

It seemed like it took a long time to convince him.

“Now, here is your debut song arranged by composer Jeong Byeong-seo.”

Vocal, guitar, bass, drum, and keyboard sheet music were distributed to the quintuplets.

While other idols did not know how to read sheet music well, they had to use guide vocals.

These five people all know how to read sheet music.

The position was planned to remain the same without changing.

Vocal, first—Hwang So-rin.

Other, third—Hwang So-jin.

Bass, second—Hwang So-min.

Keyboard, fourth—Hwang So-young.

Drums, youngest—Hwang So-jeong.

“This was arranged by composer Jeong Byeong-seo himself… !!”

“I told you, Vice President, let’s trust and follow him a long time ago.”

Second – Hwang Hwang-min also wanted the autograph of composer Jeong Byeong-seo, so he asked all five of them to sign the scores.

It will also be authenticated in its own way.

However, all of the quintuplets had smiling expressions, probably because they were fans of composer Jeong Byeong-seo.

If the effect had been this great, they would have used composer Jeong Byeong-seo as bait a long time ago….

“Let’s practice right away!”

Third – The rest of the sisters nodded at Hwang So-jin’s shout.

… But are you going to wear a bunny girl?

“Please wear comfortable clothes.”

At my words, the youngest — Ox Jeong tilted her head.

“Isn’t our stage costume Bunny Girl?”

“No….”

Closed due to broadcast review regulations.

Moreover, a bunny girl who has so much exposure.

“Now that I think about it, why is our band called Yellow Cow? “Because she was a bunny girl, I thought of Bunny or Rabbit.”

“Oh, that’s right!”

I had no choice but to explain about Yellow Cow.

Because the quintuplets’ names start with ox, they named them Yellow Cow as a pun.

But fourth — Ox Young tilted her head.

“Cows don’t have a very s*xy image, do they?”

“… In fact, cow also means milk cow.”

I had to say something I didn’t really want to mention.

Because it’s a bit too blatant.

Third—Hwang So-jin clapped his hands and said.

“Dairy cow! “It’s a bit vulgar, but you have to be a bit vulgar to be s*xy.”

“Our hearts are all big.”

Surprisingly, none of the quintuplets seemed to have any major objections.

Well, you know very well that your breasts are big.

Anyway, since they accepted s*xy idols, the somewhat blatant naming seemed to be the way to go.

[Name: Hwang So-min]

[Current thought: If it’s a cow, why don’t I wear a cow-patterned swimsuit or something like a fire bell around my neck?]

… Second – Hwang So-min’s thoughts were the most perverted.

*

I didn’t have any other work to do today, so I watched how the quintuplets were practicing at the Yellow Cow dorm.

First of all, it seemed like everyone was practicing separately, connecting headphones to the amplifier so as not to disturb each other.

… But in the end, I touched the instrument while cosplaying as a bunny girl.

I couldn’t blindly oppose it because I tried to show off my s*xiness by wearing clothes like this on a daily basis.

This debut song was taken from Red Dragon’s 1st album.

… They wrote songs and released them not only on the Internet but also on CDs every year.

It was a full album with 12 songs per album.

In other words, 36 songs have been recorded so far.

The youngest—Hwang So-jeong—got up from his seat and came towards me while practicing with the electronic drum.

“Vice President, if you look at the score here, it says to do a chorus in the middle….”

“Yes, that’s right.”

I wrote the lyrics for this song.

Because it was not a song that came out of composer Jeong Byeong-seo’s mind, he said he couldn’t even write the lyrics this time.

So, I discussed the chorus part with him and decided on it myself.

Of course, it didn’t come entirely from my head, it was the result of pulling out as many memories as I could of Yellow Cow’s debut song that I heard in the [Idol Producing] Game.

“Ha ha ha what should I do with this… ?”

“…… “So dirty.”

Yellow Cow’s debut song title is “Coming of Age Day.”

It was a song about a woman who had just become an adult seducing her older boyfriend.

“Slutty…. Can I do it like this? Ha… ! Ha… !”

“That sounds a bit like someone running on a treadmill at the gym. Are you full of anticipation, wanting to try this and that with the guy you like? “Sound like that.”

“Actually, I’ve never even had my first love….”

“… ….”

You’re 23 and you’ve never had your first love?

Even just unrequited love?

No, I’m still 23, so I think that might be possible, but I don’t think so….

Second – Hwang So-min must have heard the conversation between me and the youngest, and spoke from the side.

“Can’t I just follow porn?”

“Hey, porn….”

The second child spoke really coolly.

“It doesn’t have to be that bad. “Can I just say, a little excited?”

“Feeling excited…. Porn… ….”

Still, the youngest rolled her eyes back and forth, wondering if she had ever seen porn.

“Ah… ♡”

No, really, what should I do if I sound like a pornographic actress?

I was shocked for a moment.

Immediately after the youngest child, her face turned bright red.

Secretary Jeong Song-i, who was behind me, muttered.

“A perverted producer who dresses up idols in bunny girls and makes them moan.”

“… ….”

This time it was truly unspoken.

***

GI Production President’s Office.

President Go Kang-tae was playing GoStop on the computer.

Except for some external work, everything was done by Vice President Lim Boo-gil, so I had a comfortable daily life.

Tiriring—.

The landline phone next to the mouse rang loudly.

It had been a while since I answered the phone, so I almost thoughtlessly picked up the phone and answered, ‘Yes, this is Lucky Seven Enter.’

-Ah, CEO, this is Lucky Seven Entertainment’s overseas promotion team.

“Yes.”

-This time, there was a plan to promote Cursed Dolls to Japan.

“Oh, is that so? “You can do that through our Vice President Lim Boo-gil.”

-Oh, what is the vice president’s contact information? We’re in a bit of a hurry.

Anyway, the actual producer in charge of Cursed Dolls is Vice President Boo-gil Lim.

It was not a matter for the late President Kang Tae to judge, and he did not necessarily want to judge.

I wanted to quickly hang up the phone and hit GoStop.

Recently, Vice President Lim Boo-gil has been working outside frequently due to Yellow Cow.

There are many cases where I would not be able to answer even if I gave my office phone number, so I just gave him my personal cell phone number.

If it’s inconvenient for you, you can make a separate phone for work.

This is something that can be done by processing company expenses.

‘By the way, we are advancing to Japan….’

It has been one year since Cursed Dolls debuted.

If they are urgently looking for Vice President Lim Boo-gil, the local Japanese side would probably have made the offer first.

It was definitely good news.

However, overseas expansion was a decision that had to be made carefully.

Once you advance overseas, of course the members will leave the country.

In other words, the rate of domestic activity naturally decreases.

There are various means of promotion, but the biggest means of promotion is activity.

You need to show your face often, whether on TV or anywhere else.

However, when you go abroad, you are less likely to appear in domestic media.

Expanding overseas is a viable business only if you secure an overseas fan base that far exceeds the somewhat shrinking domestic fan base.

‘… ‘A lot of producers make mistakes here.’

This was especially true when offers came from overseas first.

They are close to importing celebrities.

What if I import it and it doesn’t sell?

Since it is not a physical trade with any inventory, there are many cases where the project is simply abandoned.

I don’t know how many months it takes to close, but it usually takes several years.

It is very difficult to retain domestic fans who have left over the past few years.

Moreover, domestic and overseas markets are different.

Of course, consumers’ tendencies are also different.

You also have to go through localization, and most producers have difficulty with this.

Most of them only know the domestic market.

Even if a local distributor helps, it is of no use if the producer does not understand well.

‘Well, I guess I’ll take care of it.’

After hanging up the phone, Manager Go Kang-tae looked at Go-Stop on the screen and clicked the mouse.

“Why are you hesitating? I’m no longer the girl you knew~♪”

The arrangement and lyrics were different, but it was basically taken from the Red Dragon album, so all the quintuplets memorized it right away.

So now, for the first time as a Yellow Cow, we started practicing together.

… Playing the guitar while wearing a bunny girl reminded me of an anime I saw before.

The youngest—Hwang So-jeong plays the drums,

“Ha… ♡ Ha… ♡”

They were adding a chorus.

I had intended it, but it was a truly obscene song.

Definitely putting each instrument in and taking it out, the atmosphere became much more lively.

Compared to the original song in the Red Dragon album, it was even neater.

The original song title was “In this pitch-black basement,” But I really couldn’t tell what the lyrics were about.

Second – Hwang So-min seemed to have been in charge of composing, writing, and arranging, but it seemed like she had no talent other than composing.

Well, I’m glad I have something to save at least by composing music.

Clap clap clap.

After Yellow Cow’s song ended, secretary Jeong Song-i and I applauded together.

The expressions on the quintuplets’ faces were pure.

[Name: Hwang So-min]

[Current thought: This song could change like this….]

[Name: Hwang So-rin]

[Current Thoughts: To be honest, I didn’t really know what Somin’s lyrics meant, but these are really good.]

[Name: Hwang So-jeong]

[Current thought: Oh, I feel something naughty.]

The youngest—Hwang So-jeong pretended not to see the status window.

“Oh, Somin, can you give me all the files you’ve been working on? “I want to pass this on to composer Jeong Byeong-seo.”

“Ah, yes!”

Second—Hwang So-min brought an old laptop and turned it on.

And then I ran [Kyobase], A composition program.

“… “Is that a crack board?”

“Yes? Yes. Because I have no money. A lot of other people say this too?”

“Now you are not an indie without money, so be careful about that too. “I’ll buy the genuine product and give it to you.”

“I’m sorry.”

Yellow Cow’s most difficult tasks were still accomplished.

All that’s left is for them to practice hard.

In particular, the first priority was to attach Song Hyun-seung as a trainer to Hwang So-rin to improve her vocal abilities.

The public is generally more picky about vocal skills than instrumental skills.

Now I’m going back to the office,

Tiriring—.

The phone rang in my pocket.

“Yes, this is Lim Boo-gil, Vice President of GI Production.”

-Oh, this is our Lucky Seven Entertainment overseas promotion team—.
