The Chaebol’s Daughter Debuted
Episode 152
The atmosphere at Day Entertainment was becoming more vibrant by the day.
The staff, who had always been busy with debut preparations, finally regained their smiles and a sense of ease began to settle in.
The Flora members were the same. Of course, they were busier than before their debut, but their faces bloomed with smiles.
A successful debut.
And thanks to countless attention and love.
I heard that offers were already coming in from various places, and they were actively communicating with fans.
Of course, with all the attention came a lot of aggro, but fortunately we had all become quite strong-hearted.
The chart rankings were also very stable.
I thought there could never be a day in life without worries, but maybe now was exactly that kind of time?
Both me and the members.
And tomorrow was the long-awaited day of our first music show pre-recording.
Flora’s official debut day. To celebrate that day, first of all.
You have completed the mission.
Would you like to receive your reward?
[Y/N]
Let me first receive the system’s debut celebration gift.
Ding!
Reward distribution complete!
[Debut Celebration Gift Package]
-3,000G
-Buff Random Box x1
-Enlightenment 10pt(+1%)
-‘Unfortunate Idol’s Memory’ unlocked
-Statistics System unlocked
“Huh, what?”
Why are there so many things…?
Wait, it’s the same sub-quest but just because the difficulty increased from low to medium, the rewards changed this much?
Was it because of the difficulty, or were they really giving special good rewards to celebrate the debut?
‘This is way better than the main mission…’
How could this be possible?
Anyway, a considerable level of reward was given to me.
First, 3,000G. This should definitely be used for what I’ve been planning.
‘Cash Shop, purchase affection system.’
I wondered if it might work, so I simply tried to memorize it in my head like commanding an AI. Ding! A cheerful sound rang out and the System Window appeared.
Would you like to purchase ‘Cash Shop>User Function Unlock>Affection System’ for 5,000G?
…Surprisingly, this actually works.
‘Ah, I guess the discount period ended.’
When I opened it last time, there was a 30% discount for the first meeting event.
“What a shame. But I’ll still buy it.”
Purchase completed.
Opening ‘Affection System’.
System updating…27%
“Ooh…”
Can I finally stop seeing those red bars that appeared in the System Window?
I thought I was going to die from annoyance every time the group management system or sub-quests had affection rewards and kept screaming at me to pay.
I looked around at other rewards while waiting for the system to open.
Buff Random Boxes are distributed quite frequently, so they’re familiar rewards now.
Seong Bul-do system points were also given.
Since it’s still a system whose purpose I can’t figure out at all, I don’t know if it’s good to receive them.
And ‘Unfortunate Idol’s Memory’ and ‘Statistics System’.
I can tell what the Statistics System is without even looking at the description.
‘Statistics System.’
Ding!
-Flora
-Day Entertainment
-Hongjin Group
-Fans
+
As expected.
It was a simple statistics system.
For example, it’s a function that shows easy-to-read statistics like Flora’s daily music streaming numbers, Day and Hongjin’s financial situations, daily fan influx, and other figures.
What the company would report to me weekly, I can now see in real-time with perfect accuracy.
What’s pre-registered are groups related to me, people who could be said to be everything to Ryu Ji-ye.
It seems possible to add more, but when I pressed the + button, it was locked.
Unfortunately, it seems payment is required to add more.
And ‘Unfortunate Idol’s Memory’.
“…Hmm.”
If it’s the Unfortunate Idol, that would be the entity that said our interests aligned when I first became Ryu Ji-ye.
It was an entity I couldn’t learn any other information about.
But I can see the memories of such an entity?
‘Explain it to me.’
Ding!
[Unfortunate Idol’s Memory]
Shows the Unfortunate Idol’s memories in text form.
From now on, you can learn new information through the Unfortunate Idol’s memories.
“….”
What does this even mean?
So I can read about the circumstances involving some unfortunate idol group in text?
…What am I supposed to do with seeing a third party’s memories?
Still, if this came out as a reward, it must be useful, right?
‘Activate Unfortunate Idol’s Memory.’
“….”
I waited for a moment. But the text window that was supposed to appear didn’t show up at all.
Forget the text window, there was no reaction whatsoever that made me doubt whether it had even activated.
‘Is this not how you activate it?’
Then how?
I read the explanation again, but as expected, there was no method written for activating the system.
But why are they giving me this as a debut gift?
The fact that they gave it as a gift at this point must mean it’s needed after debut.
I fidgeted with my earlobe in embarrassment, then shrugged my shoulders and closed the explanation window.
Since it was too late at night, I’d have to try again tomorrow after the music show schedule ended.
And the next day.
It didn’t take long for me to figure out the mechanism that activated ‘Unfortunate Idol’s Memory.’
“What’s wrong? You’re staring at me.”
Han Da-min asked me as if something was strange.
“Nothing.”
When I shook my head as if it was nothing, she shrugged, patted my butt, and disappeared into the kitchen.
As soon as I woke up in the morning and saw Han Da-min who had gotten up first, this text window appeared next to her.
She felt sympathy for her fellow sufferer.
She also felt envious of her.
She had already given up on everything, but this girl hadn’t given up yet. She spoke of the future with faint hope, wanting to shine on her own.
She didn’t even offer empty words wishing her good fortune.
Did she want her to crumble like herself? No. It was because of jealousy and inferiority complex.
It was the memory of someone I didn’t know.
I looked at Han Da-min again in surprise, but the memory I had read once didn’t appear again.
The memories of the unlucky idol weren’t something I could activate at will, but rather something that was automatically provided when the right conditions were met.
Just in case, I checked the other members one by one besides Han Da-min, but unfortunately, no memories appeared for anyone except Han Da-min.
I couldn’t be certain yet, but could it be that the unlucky idol was also a person rather than an absolute being like a god?
And if the textualized memories only activated under the condition that they were connected to that person’s past.
I might be able to learn a lot about the system and the situation I’m in.
“Oho…”
I still don’t understand why this is a debut gift though.
But it’s interesting nonetheless.
With that thought, I headed to the bathroom.
It was still early dawn.
We had to hurry and leave for the music show pre-recording.
***
“The stairs are higher than expected. It might be a bit scary when you look down from above, you know?”
“Ah, yes.”
“But since they’re wide, you’ll be safe if you’re just careful. During rehearsal, you need to get a good sense of distance, keep your eyes fixed on the camera, and come down.”
“Yes, understood.”
On one side, they were receiving explanations about how to come down the stairs, and on the other side, they were getting direct pose feedback from the staff.
Since there was a formal agreement that we would debut with UNET’s support, our first debut was to take place on Countdown.
Therefore, UNET made full preparations and arranged our debut stage.
When there’s a lot prepared, there’s also a lot to do.
We had to continue with really many rehearsals from early dawn.
Well, regardless of everything else, there’s no reason to feel bad about them taking care of us.
The members were enjoying it with pleasure.
And in the meantime.
He looked me over once and then turned his head away again.
After that, he pretended not to know me as if I didn’t exist in this world.
I realized it. To him, I was someone who didn’t even need a greeting.
At some point, I had been becoming an inanimate object in this world that could be ignored without consequence.
“Haha, good~ You’re doing really well? Could you lift your chin a little and look down at the camera with a slightly arrogant expression? I think that would come out better with more atmosphere.”
“Yes!”
Such memories also appeared as text about the Countdown Director who was giving very kind feedback to the Flora Members.
The director’s current appearance that I’m seeing is quite different from the image in the text though.
It appeared when I saw the broadcasting station building, and sometimes appears when I see some experienced industry professionals.
‘Was this person an idol who was active until recently?’
I had reasonable suspicions.
“Good! That’s how we’ll do the entrance, and now we’ll start the rehearsal for 【Famous Paintings】 and 【Blooming】!”
At the energetic shout from the production staff despite it being dawn, the stylist who had been checking my hair condition hurriedly got off the stage.
I also put down the text I had been reading absentmindedly and headed toward where the members were.
The first stage rehearsal began.
