The Chaebol’s Daughter Debuted
Episode 141
Actually, I’m also admiring the members’ appearance anew.
Everyone must have come after finishing their shoots, but not a single person had changed out of their costume.
They probably rushed over because they thought they’d miss watching Choi Song-i’s shoot if they changed clothes, and thanks to that, I was able to see the members’ concepts before the group shoot.
“Ra-eun unnie, is that a hanbok?”
Unlike Han Da-min and me who were dressed in pure fantasy costumes, Seo Ra-eun was timidly wrapped in a blanket while wearing a beautiful pale pink hanbok.
“Beautiful? I watched Ra-eun’s shoot too and thought I was watching a historical drama.”
“Th-thank you.”
Seo Ra-eun also seemed quite pleased with her appearance despite being embarrassed, showing a shy smile.
But…
“Ra-eun unnie, why is your eye makeup so smudged?”
I reached out and gently brushed around Seo Ra-eun’s eyes.
The pale pink eye makeup was smudged and slightly wiped off.
As soon as I finished speaking, the behind-the-scenes camera quickly turned and started filming Seo Ra-eun’s face.
“Uh oh…”
Seo Ra-eun panicked and covered her eyes with both hands.
“It’s nothing serious, I just rubbed my eyes a bit…”
“Ra-eun cried~”
Han Da-min quickly jumped in and said playfully. Then she slyly linked arms with me.
“Ji-ye, did Ra-eun cry again?”
“You cried? Why did you cry?”
Was there a crying scene during the shoot? Or did she get scolded?
Then Seo Ra-eun glanced at the camera and said timidly.
“I was moved… It just felt so good. Both the shooting, and Da-min unnie coming to watch my shoot.”
How can she be so kind when she speaks…
“How can you have such a kind heart!”
Han Da-min hugged Seo Ra-eun tightly.
Since moving into the dormitory, Seo Ra-eun has been deeply moved and happy about even the smallest things.
She even shed tears saying she felt emotional when we had debut album meetings or finished recording songs.
She’s naturally prone to tears, but more than that, I think it’s because Seo Ra-eun was also desperately longing for debut, even though she didn’t show it much.
“Didn’t you unnies come to watch my shoot?”
Then Choi Song-i, who had finished shooting at some point, approached us grumbling.
Then she looked at me and the members with dissatisfaction.
“Why is only my costume ordinary?”
“Ah.”
“I want to wear clothes like this too.”
Choi Song-i grumbled while touching my dress.
Song-i in a simple white t-shirt, unlike the other members who were all dressed glamorously.
Unlike us who each had our own genres, Song-i’s setting was that of an ordinary modern kid.
From Song-i’s perspective, she must feel left out being the only one not in pretty clothes.
As soon as Song-i’s lips jutted out, the members including myself reflexively surrounded and hugged Song-i.
“But Song-i is cute~”
“Right, Song-i. It’s because you’re the main character.”
“Won’t Song-i wear the prettiest clothes in tomorrow’s shoot?”
“…Don’t treat me like you’re coaxing a child again.”
Choi Song-i spoke in a fed-up tone but was already hugging Seo Ra-eun who was closest to her, looking shy.
Another thing all the members learned from living in the dormitory.
Song-i gets very jealous whether it’s about clothes or the members’ affection, but she’s just as easy to appease. Like now.
“But Song-i, are you done shooting? Why isn’t Ha-young coming?”
“I thought Ha-young would be the first one here. Or come together with Ji-ye.”
“I thought so too.”
I thought Min Ha-young, who hates being apart from the members even a little, would rush over to watch the members as soon as her shoot ended.
That’s when it happened.
brrr-
“Huh?”
A video call came from Min Ha-young.
“It’s Ha-young?”
“Ha-young?”
The members came closer and stuck near me.
I held it so the members could see the screen well and pressed the call button.
-Hey~
An extremely excited voice came through. But Min Ha-young’s appearance wasn’t visible, as if she was covering the camera with her hand.
“What? Why did you make a video call but not show your face?”
-What? All the members are together? You were all together without me? I’m lonely~
The behind-the-scenes camera that was filming us naturally moved behind us and filmed the mobile phone screen.
“The behind-cam is here with us now~”
-Oh, really?
Min Ha-young giggled at Han Da-min’s words and then said in a playful voice.
-Perfect. For our Flora fans watching this behind-the-scenes, I’ll show you something fun so you can have an enjoyable day too!
“Something fun?”
“What is Ha-young doing alone? What’s so funny?”
-Kheuhuk! Wait a moment. Everyone look here carefully!
For some reason, not only Min Ha-young but also the staff members around her could be heard making strange sounds as if holding back laughter.
I instinctively adjusted the position of the mobile phone to be more visible to the behind-the-scenes camera and said.
“We’re watching carefully. What is it?”
-Ta-da!
“…”
A brief silence.
“…Pfft.”
“Haha! What is that hair?”
In the end, laughter burst out from here and there as no one could hold it in.
“Hey! What are you!”
-Hihi!
Min Ha-young smiled proudly as if she had accomplished something.
-How is it, my hair!</
Min Ha-young on the screen was turning her head this way and that to show us her incredibly frizzy, explosive hair.
“Ha! Haha!”
Han Da-min made strange laughing sounds and giggled on the floor.
Then she wiped away tears and asked.
“What concept is that exactly? Did you really shoot like that?”
-Hey, I did the actual shooting prettier than this! But before the initial styling, my hair was so funny.
“Right, it is funny! Ah, I’m tearing up. My stomach hurts.”
-So I asked them to make my hair exactly the same to make the members laugh! How was it? Was it funny?
“Super funny.”
“Your hair is really amazing.”
I was genuinely amazed and pushed Min Ha-young’s image toward the camera.
“Isn’t she such a funny kid? Her hair was originally prettier than this, but she made it like this to make the members laugh.”
“Ha-young unnie is ambitious about being funny. I think she wakes up every morning thinking about how to be funny.”
“Ha-young, you’re an idol~”
-Hehe, that’s right, I’m an idol. A curly-haired idol. Will you still like me even like this? Hey, Ryu Ji-ye, how do I look?
“Funny.”
I wasn’t just saying that, I meant it sincerely.
“You’re so charming.”
Where did this kid come from? A member who can express her variety show sense as naturally as her skills.
At my words, Min Ha-young grinned, showing her teeth, and said cheerfully.
-I’m almost there! I’m even funnier in person. Hanging up.
And the video call ended.
“….”
“Wow, did she really call just to show us that hair? Ha-young is seriously such a funny kid.”
“Director, if you’re going to release this video, please do it after Ha-young unnie debuts. If you release it now, all our unnie’s fans will run away.”
Choi Song-i said bluntly and then snickered as if she found it cute.
“Anyway, all the unnies are weird.”
“Alright, alright, girls. Now that filming is over, hurry up and change clothes so we can leave!”
“Oh, yes.”
“Thank you for your hard work!”
We were pushed by the manager and stylist toward the dressing room.
And shortly after we came out having changed clothes, Min Ha-young, who was still maintaining her afro hair, approached us shaking her head, and we left the venue and headed to the cafeteria.
It was the night after the first day of music video filming had ended.
***
The meal after filming.
Though it was meant to be a gathering to acknowledge everyone’s hard work today, it naturally became a meeting atmosphere about our debut.
Since everyone was on a diet anyway.
“SPLCON? SPLL directly proposed it? Wow….”
Han Da-min let out an incredulous laugh.
“Well, it would still be good to do it though. It’ll be promotion after debut. It’s annoying, but there’s nothing bad for us in going on.”
“That’s right! We have absolutely nothing to feel awkward about!”
Min Ha-young, who had covered her curly hair with a scarf at the stylist unnie’s earnest request, said huffily.
“The people who should be embarrassed are, well, someone else, right?”
As expected, kids with broadcasting experience are different.
Even though it’s just a private room with only us, I can see they don’t mention other group names in public places.
“Got it. Then I’ll tell them that all Flora members want to go on SPLCON.”
Manager Seong Ji-soo nodded and said to Han Da-min.
“Oh, and Da-min. Shouldn’t you tell the members about the opinion that came up in the meeting last time?”
“Ah, right.”
Han Da-min clapped her hands and got the members’ attention.
“Girls, listen up. We’re filming our own content right now, but there’s been an opinion that it might be a bit lacking to build up fans’ anticipation with just that.”
Oh, this is something I haven’t heard about either.
It seems Han Da-min came up with ideas with the staff again in the meantime.
Han Da-min said.
“How about we try something like this? A 100-day countdown.”
