Peninsula: It’s just a dream, are you serious?

Chapter 44 IU Lee Ji-eun

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is the end of July, and Chen Yan's internship has begun for more than half a month.

During this period, he would dream of the mourning hall from time to time at night, but he still could not see clearly who was in the portrait.

He didn't dwell on it too much. He couldn't interfere with the dream, but he still had to continue his normal life.

In the past half month, he has learned a lot from Park Ji-hoon while working, and the two of them have developed a very good understanding of each other.

"Then I'll be leaving first, Ji-hoon."

It was another Friday. After a busy day, Chen Yan politely said goodbye to Park Ji-hoon beside him.

Park Ji-hoon smiled and patted his shoulder: "Okay, be careful on the road, see you on Monday."

He is becoming more and more satisfied with his younger brother Chen Yan, who is very talented in music and learns things quickly.

With him as my assistant, my work has become a lot easier, and I also have more time to slack off at work.

If there is any good opportunity in the future, I can take him with me.

Chen Yan smiled and nodded, then stood up and walked out of the office.

He was driving the car that Kim Taeyeon lent him on the road. The sun had not yet set in the sky, and the sunlight dyed the tall buildings a touch of gold, just like a scene from an anime.

Chen Yan drove through the sunlight and finally entered the underground garage of the community.

After taking the elevator to his residential floor, Chen Yan walked out of the elevator and looked across.

Kim Taeyeon has been busy again since she had dinner at his house the last two days. The two haven't seen each other for a long time, but they have never stopped chatting on the phone.

As expected, when popular artists are busy, it is normal to not be seen for ten days or half a month.

Chen Yan opened the door of his house, walked in and closed it again. The whole floor fell into silent silence again.

Having nothing to do on the weekend, Chen Yan stayed at home to rest all day.

This situation continued until Sunday afternoon, when Chen Yan went out again because of a phone call.

After driving to the SBS public showroom in Deungchon-dong, Seoul, Chen Yan parked the car nearby and got out to look at the building in front of him.

Deungchon-dong Broadcasting Center is one of the branches of SBS TV station in Seoul. Due to its small area, it is mainly used to record music variety shows such as "Inkigayo" and "Real Game".

Park In-jae is doing his internship here.

Chen Yan currently works at the SBS headquarters in Mokdong, which houses news, broadcasting, and most program and TV drama productions.

"Don't look, this way~"

Hearing Park In Jae's familiar voice, Chen Yan looked in the direction and saw this guy standing at the entrance of the venue and waving at him.

Walking closer, Park In Jae hooked his shoulder and said, "You're finally here, kid."

"You've invited me so warmly over and over again, and I feel bad about pouring cold water on you all the time."

Chen Yan was watching TV at home when Park In-jae suddenly called him and said that he wanted him to come and watch the "Inkigayo" performance.

Unable to bear with his constant nagging, Chen Yan had no choice but to agree to come.

Park In Jae led Chen Yan into the venue and said, "I'm telling you, it's not a loss for you to come here today. There are quite a few groups coming to perform this time."

"for example?"

"For example, Tara, 2ne1, and some girl groups from smaller companies."

"What about the boy band?"

"Boy band."

Park In Jae looked thoughtful: "Well, I don't know. I don't need to remember these."

Chen Yan showed an expression that he had expected it, but did not expose him. When he arrived at the backstage of "Inkigayo", the security guard saw Park In Jae's work ID hanging on his chest and did not stop him.

When the two walked into the backstage, the environment suddenly became noisy, and people talking in groups of three or four could be seen everywhere.

When some men and girls with makeup on their faces saw Park In Jae, they stopped talking and bowed politely, and also saluted Chen Yan next to them.

Park In-jae nodded politely and continued to walk inside with Chen Yan.

On the way, they met several men and women in professional suits. Some of them smiled and bowed slightly to Park In Jae like the idols mentioned above, while others just nodded politely.

Chen Yan noticed this detail, and Park In Jae also explained in due time:
"Those are all managers from various groups. Those who saluted me were from smaller companies, and those who just nodded were from larger companies, or had artists with a certain level of popularity."

Chen Yan nodded and quickly understood.

The peninsula market is small, but there are surprisingly many idols, and the supply far exceeds the demand.

As for how to carve out a path among so many groups and quickly gain popularity, the music programs on the three major TV stations with a large audience are undoubtedly the best choice.

However, music shows have a broadcast time limit, and each episode is controlled at about an hour. Naturally, it is impossible to allow all idols to perform on stage.

At this time, in addition to the competitiveness of the idol itself, the resources and connections of the company behind it are equally important.

For most small companies, an opportunity to perform on stage may require connections and the establishment of some beneficial relationships.

Therefore, they will take the initiative to make friends with some people they think they can make friends with.

Park In-jae, who is an assistant PD at a young age, happens to be among them.

"So this is how you target those female idols, right?" Chen Yan couldn't help but tease again.

"What are you talking about? They and I are clearly in love with each other."

You and them? Are you in love with each other?

You are really good at beautification.

Chen Yan was speechless and complained in his heart, but didn't say anything else.

He has heard a lot of similar situations from his brother Park Ji-hoon recently, which has changed his views on these things.

We are all adults, it's a matter of mutual consent, there's nothing much to say.

The two continued walking forward for a while, then turned a corner. Park In Jae saw a girl walking not far away, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "IUxi."

The girl heard the voice and looked over. When she saw Park In Jae, she gave him a polite smile and walked over.

After walking closer, she bowed slightly to Park In Jae: "Park PDnim."

Park In Jae smiled and waved his hand: "IUxi, you don't have to be so polite. I'm just an assistant PD."

The girl smiled politely but did not respond. She glanced secretly at Chen Yan beside her, and then a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes.

It's a bit familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere.

Seeing this, Park In Jae hooked his arm around Chen Yan's shoulders and introduced him, "This is Chen Yan, my good friend. He was also one of the people in charge of the school anniversary celebration. Do you remember me, IUxi?"

After hearing what he said, the girl immediately remembered that she had seen him at the Yonsei University anniversary celebration before. She said he looked a little familiar.

She did have some impression of this face. After all, when she saw Chen Yan at that time, she was also a little surprised.

"Yeah, I remember it. Hello, Chen Yanxi."

Chen Yan also smiled politely: "Hello, IUxi."

Of course he knew the girl in front of him, IU, whose real name is Lee Ji-eun. She is one of the few solo female singers in Peninsula and a popular artist in the past two years.
